In his mind, even if things get worse, the two of them will only drive him out of the city and will never hurt him. Because they know very well that once something happens to him here, everything in heaven and on earth will be destroyed.
There is no place for them anymore.
This is where Tang Ao's confidence lies. But Shi Lei also has good intentions, and Tang Ao can't refute him, so he lets him do it and is ready.
After a while, Zuo Gang, the deputy general of the Imperial Guard, walked over and said, "Your Majesty, Xu Kun and Liu Cao are here. Please see them outside the palace."
"How many troops did they bring?" Shi Lei asked anxiously before Tang Ao could say anything.
"It's just four soldiers." Zuo Zhuang answered.
"Hahaha, please." Tang Ao laughed after hearing this. Judging from this action, the matter was already settled.
No one knew what happened that night. All roads leading to Liu's mansion were secretly guarded by Longya, and anyone suspicious was arrested.
It wasn't until early the next morning that Xu Kun and Liu Cao hurriedly summoned South Vietnamese envoys to express their decision to surrender to South Vietnam. They also said that the Chinese army was in Western Shu, and there were also large armies in Xiangzhou, and Daocheng was no longer safe.
Well, we should return to Jiaozhou first.
The envoy was naturally overjoyed by the two generals' decision. As for their retreat to Jiaozhou, it was exactly what he wanted. Only when these people reach their own territory will they be subject to greater restrictions.
This is an army of 100,000 people, and it is also a well-trained horse of 100,000 people. When the envoy thought that he had made such a great contribution and that it was a certainty that he would be promoted to an official position, he could not stop smiling.
Everyone talked happily. It was agreed that in three days, the army would set off from Daocheng to Jiaozhou. During the introduction, South Vietnam would arrange food and supplies for the 100,000-strong army along the way.
...
The camp of Emperor Tang Qingchuan of Qianying County outside Anping County. There was a burst of uncontrollable laughter from inside.
The laughter came from the mouth of Tang Qingchuan. He had just received the news from Xiang Long Qiang. He had cut off the connection between Anping County and Daliang City as he wished, and intercepted and killed two Dahua Army troops there.
The transportation team has sufficient rations.
Regarding this news, Tang Qingchuan did not doubt that he was there, but because when Xiang Longqiang set out with 20,000 cavalry, he brought limited military rations. If he had not really intercepted and killed the transportation team of the Dahua Army, it would have been impossible to have enough food.
.
Based on this alone, he believed the news. As for Xiang Longqiang betraying him, Tang Qingchuan had never considered it. In his mind, it was Tang Ao who sent troops to destroy the Western Barbarians.
With the hatred of genocide, how could the two of them come together?
But he didn't think about how he treated foreigners, and did he ever give him half of his trust?
What Tang Ao did was to exterminate the family, and what Tang Qingchuan did was to exterminate the family. In contrast, as long as Xiang Longqiang still wanted to live a good life, it was obvious what choice he would make.
Even if the transport team has been cut off, it means that the sky thunder in Anping County will only be used less and less. This is the opportunity for the Zhongwang Army.
Considering that Xiang Longqiang could not cut off the transportation line for too long, the Dahua Army would also send people to retake the line, which meant that there was not much time left for the Zhongwang Army. Tang Qingchuan quickly summoned the generals
, made the decision to attack Anping County overnight.
Thinking that he had cut off the transportation and supply lines of the Dahua Army, Tang Qingchuan decided to invest far more force than in the previous attack.
If it was just a tentative attack before, now it is a full force attack.
"The catapults, siege forces, city assault vehicles, and ladders have all been brought out. We will try to capture Anping County at once." In the imperial tent, in front of a group of generals, Tang Qingchuan said this.
After a hasty dinner, under the moonlight in the sky, groups of loyal king's troops rushed towards Anping County. Even under the weak moonlight, you can still see the crowds of people coming like ants.
.
"Damn it, we're finally here." Qin De, the commander of the second regiment of the second brigade, who was leaning on the firearms digesting food on the tower, finally received the battle report from the scouts.
The whole person suddenly became energetic.
During these days, the loyal king's army has been attacking, and they are all small-scale, with only about a thousand or even a few hundred people at a time. Such an enemy is really demoralizing.
The firearms brigade is used to deal with powerful enemies. If the number is too small, how can they show their power?
Fortunately, orders came from above two days ago to let them eat and drink enough to prepare for a big battle. For this reason, the soldiers of the Second Regiment have eaten and drank well every day in the past two days.
Just sleep and eat when you wake up, so that many soldiers don't feel sleepy even when they are lying in bed. Some soldiers even feel that they have gained weight.
Soldiers have to go to the battlefield, and this is the platform for them to perform. If they eat, drink and sleep every day, over time, they will become lazy.
In just two days, Qin De had to realize the fact that he really cared about his life, not the life of enjoying happiness. Seeing the soldiers sleeping and gaining weight every day, he was anxious in his heart.
After dinner in the evening, he made up his mind. If there was no movement from the enemy tonight, he would go find the brigade commander early tomorrow morning. This happy job should be left to other regiments. Their second regiment did not have that fate.
Fortunately, the enemy finally came. Although he had to wait for two days, Qin De felt that everything was worth it as long as he could see the enemy appear in front of him.
"Send the order, each battalion is ready. If anyone is slow or inaccurate, get the hell out of the second regiment. Our second regiment wants elite soldiers, not waste." Qin De said to the side.
After the ordering soldier roared, he stared intently at the order flag at the bottom of the city.
It is dark, and the telescope's sight is blocked, but people's methods are always endless, and the role of the command flag at this time is very important. From the front of the city to the front of the battlefield, there are two sets of command flags every hundred steps
Flagbearers exist, and they faithfully report the enemy's movement trajectories below the city to the city in a relay manner, so that the generals can better and more comprehensively understand the shape of the battlefield.
With these flag soldiers, Qin De can still understand all the changes on the battlefield even though they are far away, and then he will make correct military orders based on the information he gets.
Under the city, densely packed troops of loyal kings were rushing forward, and many of them were still muttering words, as if they were praying that those thunders would not fall on their bodies and feet.
Anyone faced with a thunderstorm that could kill him or her at any time would be extremely nervous. After all, no one knows when that thing will sound or where it will explode.
It is precisely because you don't know that you are afraid. But when you are actually on the battlefield, fear is never the solution to the problem, because at this time life or death is no longer up to you.
Tang Qingchuan understood the fear of the soldiers very well, so he sent an inspection team between each phalanx. Their mission was to kill anyone on the spot if they found someone fleeing.
There is nothing that can be done about this. Compared with killing some people who are cowardly and running away, it is better than having the army really defeated. It is much better to be defeated like a mountain.
The army was sent out, and Tang Qingchuan, who was standing in the center, waited for the sound of thunder to explode. He knew very well that even if the supply line of Anping County was cut off, there would still be some preserved thunder in the city.
, they will still be effective, and they will still kill a large number of their own soldiers.
For this reason, the soldiers he sent first were all ordinary people with ordinary combat capabilities, and he kept the real elites. According to his idea, good steel should be used on the blade.
Besides, there are no immortals on the battlefield. It just depends on how many people die, what the outcome of the battle is, and whether it meets one's own requirements.
"Humph, damn Tang Ao, damn Tian Lei." Tang Qingchuan couldn't help but curse loudly when he thought about how many soldiers would have to die before they could rush to Anping County.
If Tang Ao hadn't created the thunder, it would have been very easy for him to attack a city with an army of 500,000. It can also be said that it was precisely because of Tang Ao's appearance that the way the battlefield changed, the competition
The decisive factor no longer depends on who has more soldiers or who has more generals, but rather depends on the weapons in your hands.
Tang Qingchuan didn't like this feeling very much. He believed that a real warrior should go to the battlefield and fight with sword and gun.
This is the real hero, this is the real strong man.
But no matter what he thinks, once the form of war has changed, it will never change back. With the continuous advancement of human science and technology and civilization, the pattern of the battlefield is destined to continue to change. This will be reflected in future generations.
People have already proven it.
On the tower of Anping County, the flags were constantly changing, all falling into Qin De's eyes. When he saw that the vanguard of the loyal king's army had entered the bombardment area of the sky thunder, he ordered the artillery fire without the slightest hesitation.
The command.
The soldiers of the Second Regiment, who had been waiting in the city for a long time and would inevitably gain weight if they were not active, after receiving the military order, were like brides about to enter the bridal chamber. One by one, they impatiently put the Sixth Generation Sky Thunder into the bronze
The gun was hit, and then the gun was fired.
The originally quiet night suddenly changed. Countless black shadows flew across the starry sky and fell towards the open space in front of the city tower.
Under the friction in the air, there was a sound of failure, which was quickly replaced by a loud rumbling sound. One after another, the sky thunder fell to the earth, turning the night into day, and turning the night into day.
The silence turned into noise.
As the sky thunder fell, it was accompanied by bursts of seemingly endless wailing sounds. When these sounds were carried by the wind and seemed to reach the center of the Zhongwang Army, the muscles on the faces of many generals trembled.
It was shaking, proving that they were not at peace in their hearts.
