"Second uncle, please leave quickly. We still have 20,000 cavalry troops here. You will definitely be able to break out of the siege!" Li Wucheng gritted his teeth and said to Li Tiezhan.
Li Wucheng is the eldest son of Li Tiehe. Although he has been in the army for more than ten years, his military talent can still only be described as mediocre. He originally led 50,000 infantry and cavalry to garrison Xiangzhou, but considering that his abilities are indeed limited,
Therefore, Li Xiaomo specially asked Li Tieming to take charge of the overall situation. Originally, the 30,000 infantrymen he commanded were fighting alongside Song Zhengfeng, but when the Hetao cavalry was divided and outflanked, he unknowingly led his soldiers towards Li Tiezhan.
But this is good, the uncle and nephew can still talk about old times before dying in battle, which is also a kind of happiness.
Li Tiezhan shook his head. If he wanted to break out of the encirclement, he would have broken out and left long ago. But he couldn't let it go. The entire army of 300,000 people was wiped out. This was completely worse for the Li family in Qinchuan. Thinking of the special emphasis in Li Xiaomo's letter
He couldn't go out to fight in the field, but he couldn't bear the temptation, and he was defeated in the end.
The 300,000-strong army was defeated in one battle, and Xiangzhou, which was empty of troops, would definitely not be able to block the attack of the Hetao army. Without Xiangzhou as an intermediate hub, the Li family in Qinchuan and the Song family in Yizhou would definitely be defeated like their current situation.
The Hetao was divided, surrounded and finally divided and destroyed.
Qinchuan has lost two northern states, and the fall of Xiangzhou has exposed Hezhou and Changzhou to the front of Hetao, which had been hiding behind Xiangzhou. Qinchuan's military strength can no longer make ends meet. In addition to continuing to shrink its troops, Li
Xiao Mo has no choice. However, only Ezhou is left among the six states of Qinchuan. How long can Qinchuan like this be sustained?
"A general dies in a hundred battles, and a strong man returns after ten years. From the day I mounted my war horse, I had the consciousness of dying in battle and being shrouded in horse leather." Li Tiezhan smiled bitterly: "Besides, someone will eventually be responsible for this tragic defeat."
After a day of fighting, the losses of the coalition forces were extremely heavy. At least half of the Qinchuan soldiers died on the battlefield, and most of the remaining soldiers were divided and surrounded on the low hills east of Caiziba. Depending on the situation, they could at least hold on for a while. The Song family
On the other hand, no less than 80,000 soldiers died in the battle, and more than half of them were sacrificed in the subsequent massacre by the Hetao cavalry. However, the Song family's Bai'er Army did not collapse. Now on the hilltop occupied by the Song family's father and son, at least there are still
There are 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers, and they are basically all soldiers of the White Ear Legion.
Compared with the huge losses of the coalition forces, only 30,000 people were killed in Hetao. Among them, more than 10,000 cavalry were killed in order to minimize the pressure on Dugu and restrain Li Tiezhan, a relatively tough man.
Three thousand soldiers were killed on the spot, and countless others were injured. Even the bloody battles and the mountains under his command were dripping with blood.
The Song family's army collapsed faster than expected. In order to annihilate the two legions of Dugu Yuming and Xue Sha as soon as possible, Song Zhengfeng did his best from the beginning and spared no effort.
If the army led by other generals in Hetao had faced Song Zhengfeng's rare desperate charge in a century, they would have already used their full strength. However, Song Zhengfeng made the biggest mistake, that is, he forgot that the infantry commander in Hetao was
Dugu Yuming, who was born as a grassroots bandit, rose all the way to the deputy commander of the White Ear Army, and then led the White Ear Army to defeat Dugu Yuming, who was in great power for a while.
Dugu has long been confident about the Song family's attack methods. No one knows the attack methods and attack strategies of the White Ear Army and the Song family infantry better than him. The reason is very simple, because these were the years he was in the White Ear Army.
, based on the traditional tactics of the Song family and the situation at the time. Therefore, Dugu can be said to get twice the result with half the effort when defending. He can easily predict where the Song family will break through and what attack method they will adopt.
However, when Dugu was extremely angry, after so many years, the Song family's attack methods were still the same, with no improvement at all. The situation of the White Ear Legion was slightly better. Some of the other 100,000 soldiers even had some basic skills.
The attack formations have not been trained.
"You bastards, they are really a bunch of idiots. It seems that as soon as I leave, I will completely ruin the reputation that you worked so hard to create!" Dugu cursed angrily.
Zhou Jilong quickly flattered him and said: "That's right, you were the supporter of the White Ear Army back then. Without you, the White Ear Army would be nothing! Brother, your brilliance is as brilliant as the stars in the sky. Yours
Wisdom has lasted through the ages and has never been seen before or since."
Dugu glanced at Zhou Jilong with disdain and said disdainfully: "Do your business, don't just flatter yourself! However, I like your straightforwardness very much! Hahaha!"
Li Donggao felt dizzy. He really didn't know what to say when he met such an old gangster boss.
Due to Dugu's accurate judgment of the strategic intentions of the Bai'er Army, the Song family had an extremely hard time during the attack. By the time Song Junlin and his son finally thought of this, reinforcements from the Hetao army had arrived.
At that time, the Song family was desperately attacking Dugu's infantry line, and they did not expect that there would be a cavalry attack from behind. Moreover, the first arrival was 50,000 cavalry led by Xin Ke himself.
If the White-Ear Legion collided with Xinke's 50,000 cavalry on the frontal battlefield, then even with Xinke's bravery, facing the only infantry regiment that dared to confront the most powerful armored heavy cavalry of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms,
They also had to be very alert. However, the Song family was now unprepared, and the surprise attack came from behind, which immediately caught the Song family by surprise.
At this time, Dugu also launched a timely counterattack. The strength of the two sides was almost the same, and Hetao occupied the advantage of the battlefield. The situation of the Song family was naturally difficult. However, the Bai'er Army is the first-class infantry army in the entire Qingfeng Empire after all.
Although the quality of the generals was not good, the combat effectiveness of the entire legion was still quite strong. After surviving the most difficult beginning, the Song family finally reshaped their defensive front with the White Ear Legion as the core.
However, good fortune never comes singly. Misfortunes never come singly. After finally stabilizing their position, the vanguard of the Huben Army, 50,000 cavalry, led by Lou Jing and others, rushed into the battlefield at lightning speed, and rushed towards the Song family's defense line from the very beginning. Wait
The people of the Huben Army had vented enough. The Hetao army led by Haotian was approaching the battlefield. Song Zhengfeng and his son had no choice but to fight and retreat to several nearby hills, preparing to fight stubbornly.
The division and encirclement of the coalition forces marked that the coalition forces had completely lost the initiative and offensive capabilities. Naturally, the Hetao side would not miss this great opportunity. More than 200,000 cavalry appeared to be disorganized but they were scattered on the battlefield without any disorder, assisting the infantry.
Kill the surviving coalition soldiers on the battlefield. More than 300,000 infantrymen, under the personal command of Dugu, surrounded the coalition forces divided on various hills, and then cleared them one by one.
The battle soon turned into a massacre. The methodical Hetao army began to use its ability to control the entire battlefield to exert its own strength advantage, and leisurely eroded the coalition's territory, while the attacked party had no counterattack force at all.
The Song family father and son are now in despair and don't know what to do. They can only be passively swallowed up by the Hetao army. But Li Tiezhan is different. He is not dead yet, so he must continue to fight. In the Huben Army's 50,000 cavalry and
Under the surveillance of the Fengwu Legion, Li Tiezhan tried his best to reunite the Qinchuan soldiers scattered on the nearby hills and battlefields, but Hetao did not give him a chance at all. Every time he took the initiative to attack, he came back in vain. Later,
, Li Tiezhan was also a little disappointed. He understood that in the battle just now, he had lost his status in the hearts of the soldiers, his majesty had been seriously shaken, and the soldiers did not believe that he could lead the army to victory.
Haotian's car slowly drove into the battlefield. Regardless of everyone's objections, Haotian insisted on going to the battlefield to experience it in person. Xian Lianchen and others couldn't resist him, so they had to help him dress up, and then accompanied Haotian slowly
Get off the Qingyun.
Spring is supposed to be a season of vibrant green grass, but with the light of torches, Qiu Mu and the three girls can clearly see a patch of mud on the battlefield. All the land is dark red, obviously mixed with blood.
.As far as the eye can see, there is no green grass at all. Caiziba is an important rapeseed producing area in Qinchuan. However, now, all the rapeseed seedlings have been trampled to pieces, making it difficult for people to tell what their original origins are.
What is it.
As soon as he stepped on the ground, Xian Lianchen felt that his feet were soft. He kicked casually and a severed arm suddenly flew ten feet away. Xian Lianchen looked down and saw that his shoes had been dyed dark.
Red. A gust of wind blew, and the smell of blood filled the entire battlefield. Qiu Mu and Xian Lianchen's faces were very pale. The two of them had traveled around the world for many years, and after marrying into the Hetao, it was not that they had not experienced war. But
, this was their first real contact with the battlefield. Seeing the situation in front of her, Xian Lianchen couldn't bear it anymore and vomited it out with a cry.
A pure white handkerchief was suddenly handed to Xian Lianchen. Xian Lianchen was a little confused. When he looked up, he found that Haotian was looking at him with a warm look on his face: "Here, wipe it. I told you two earlier.
, stay on the carriage and don’t get off, you see, it suddenly became such a mess.”
Xian Lianchen didn't refuse, but wiped it hard with the handkerchief twice before returning it to Haotian. Haotian pinched her and Qiu Mu's faces lovingly, and said with a gentle face: "Okay, Xin Jiao
, you go up with them. Don’t worry, sir is by my side, don’t worry about my safety.”
Although Xin Jiao is a woman, she has seen too many strong winds and waves, and has no discomfort with the corpses strewn on the battlefield. Of course, she should just pull a corpse and put it under her buttocks like a Loop soldier, and then take advantage of the situation
She still can't do the thing of munching on solid food during rest time.
"Lord, Du Shuai sent someone to ask if we want to take prisoners?" Luo Xiang walked to Haotian and said.
Haotian raised his eyebrows: "It's better not to use it. Firstly, it's troublesome, and secondly, it's getting late, so some accident might happen."
Luo Xiang gave a few instructions to a soldier beside him. The soldier turned around and disappeared into the hazy night. Then soon, a pitiful scream sounded on the battlefield. Luo Xiang's expression did not change.
Haotian's expression remained the same, but Xuanji's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't say anything in the end.
Looking at the vast battlefield, a thought suddenly came to Xuanji's mind: Maybe it's a good thing that these people died here. At least, this way of death is more comfortable than building a city with bones and a temple with skulls.
Looking up, Luo Xiang was staring at himself with a smile. Xuanji felt a hair in his heart. Unexpectedly, Luo Xiang seemed to have misunderstood the meaning of Xuanji. He deliberately fell one step behind and whispered to Xuanji: "Don't worry, military advisor. According to Lin Yuanke's estimate,
, it will take at least two million corpses to build the city wall of Niantian Holy Capital. Don’t worry, aren’t there still so many people in Yizhou and Qinchuan?”
Xuanji was counting down his hair, but looking at Luo Xiang's interested expression, he didn't know what to say. Hetao went south to take revenge. Xuanji didn't have any objections, and he was even one of the promoters. However, for Hetao to use the dense bones
He was firmly opposed to the construction of the Holy Capital of Niantian. After a person dies, it is important to bury him in peace. But by doing this, Hetao not only exposes his bones to heaven and earth, but also, according to old legends,
Even the soul is sealed here and cannot be reincarnated forever. For a normal person, death is not terrible. What is terrible is the way of death.
However, as for the joint proposal to kill Dugu and others, apart from themselves and Chen Han and others, they were firmly opposed, and even Tong Xiu and other scribes were on the side of the military. They all agreed that everyone must fight for themselves
We must pay the price for our actions, and we must not let the people who died unjustly in Hetao live in peace.
Xuanji proposed at the time that the people were already dead, and it would be useless to say this now. However, Luo Xiang, Xue Sha and others disagreed. Xue Sha made it clear that those people were already dead. No matter how much we did for them, they
We can't feel it either. In this case, all we can do is avenge them and let their enemies die even worse than them.
Xuanji also said that since everyone must pay the price for their actions, wouldn't everyone be afraid of being punished by God for such an act that goes against heaven?
Seeing that Xuanji had good intentions after all, Xue Sha and the others did not openly laugh at him. Instead, Chu Xiangcheng recounted what Hetao had said to Yingwu layman, and Xuanji was immediately speechless.
In fact, the mystery is very clear to me, and I can't stop this incident from happening at all. The high-level military and political parties in Hetao have decided on the matter, and Haotian also intends to support it. Under such circumstances, even if I contacted Xin Jiao Qiumu and others,
He couldn't fight against the military. He could only do his best and obey fate.
Because he was thinking about something, Xuanji walked a little slower. Inadvertently, he heard Xue Sha Xinke and Dugu whispering behind him.
"Is the size of Nian Tian Shengjing a little small? This is the palace we gave to my sister. From the outside, it looks about the same size as a county town. Hey, can you tell me, my lord, to make it bigger?"
This is obviously Dugu's voice.
"I didn't think of it at the time, but it is indeed a little smaller. In Tianyi's life, he liked poetry, calligraphy, paintings, fine porcelain and the like the most. What do you think of this? When the time comes, we will build a beautiful palace in Tiandu Shengjing.
Just imagine, this palace has white jade as its walls, silver as its floor, gold as its roof, and pearls as its lamps. The courtyard is filled with the most precious jade or opal, and the walls are all decorated with paintings by famous figures in history. That scene,
God will definitely like it."
"That's true, my eldest sister likes these things. But Xue Shuai, these things are too expensive. If someone is bold enough to steal them, what should we do?"
"This is a question, please refer to it..."
"Are Song Zhengfeng and his son on this mountain?" Haotian slowly walked to the front line and asked towards the dark hill in front of him in the dark night.
Dugu nodded: "It should be up here." Although he did not see Song Junlin and his son, the White-Ear Army Corps was guarding near this hill, so it was obvious that the Song family's father and son must be here.
Haotian was silent for a while, then suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Commander Du, regardless of the outcome, dig out the bodies of Song Junlin and his son, and escort them back to the Holy Capital of Niantian to build the city!"
Dugu's heart trembled, Luo Xiang and Xue Sha also frowned, but Xin Mo was in high spirits. Without waiting for Dugu's reply, he loudly replied: "Please don't worry, my lord, I will definitely raise the heads of the Song family's father and son."
Tianshengjing."
Jiang Chenzhou laughed at the side and said: "Xin Shuai, what my lord wants is to take the bodies of the Song family father and son together to build the city. If there are only two dog heads, I'm afraid you won't be able to deliver."
Haotian didn't care about the nonsense of the generals below. After the explanation, he began to inspect the battlefield. Luo Xiang and Dugu Xuesha looked at each other, and while Haotian and Xin were not paying attention, they exchanged a few words.
Luo Xiang immediately followed Haotian's footsteps. Since Xin Jiao was not by Haotian's side, the heavy responsibility of this personal bodyguard could only be assumed by himself.
Xinke didn't notice the private conversation between the three of them. After chatting with Jiang Chenzhou for a few words, he turned around with a smile and said to Dugu: "Commander Du, you must share this offensive task with me.
Don't think that because I am now a cavalry general, you should forget about me."
Dugu laughed: "How could it happen?" After saying that, he pointed to the rolling hills in front of him and said: "Xin Shuai, we have been brothers for many years, and you cannot handle this task alone. Let's divide this place into three parts.
Block, I, Blood Commander, and Xin Commander, each of you will choose one. How about it?"
Xin Ke thought for a moment and suddenly said dissatisfied: "Commander Du, all my subordinates are cavalry. Aren't you fooling people?"
Dugu said quickly: "Xin Shuai is joking. Let's do this, Zhou Jilong, you and the 50,000 soldiers of the White Tiger Army will temporarily join Xin Shuai. Boy, you are the person transferred by our White Tiger Army. Do it well and don't lose your job."
You have a handsome face, otherwise, I will take your skin off and use it as a cushion."
Zhou Jilong shrank his neck. Although Dugu would not really peel off his own skin, it was still very possible to remove a layer of skin from him. Just as he was about to summon the infantry generals under his command, Dugu suddenly hooked him.
Zhou Jilong quickly moved his head, and then the expression on his face suddenly became confused.
"Remember, never forget." Dugu warned fiercely.
Zhou Jilong was very puzzled. He looked at Dugu, who was showing a bit of solemnity despite being obscene, and Xue Sha, who had twinkling eyes next to him, and nodded honestly.
