Shi Gandang looked at the scene in front of him and frowned, "What a way to stop the army by breaking the bridge!"
"this……"
The soldiers around him were also speechless.
Sighing helplessly.
Obviously victory is just around the corner, but now, it's hard to reach the sky.
After a while, Shi Gandang said: "Set up camp on the spot and wait for the opportunity to cross the bridge!"
"yes!"
The soldiers beside him carried out the general's orders as quickly as possible.
Not long after, Xu Mingdong took a rough loudspeaker and shouted: "Wu Chaojun, why did you stop suddenly? Come here!"
"I'm waiting for you right here!"
The sound, neither loud nor quiet, reached Shi Gandang's ears.
I have to say that what Xu Mingdong did was a bit cheap, and it was completely a villain’s ambition!
Shi Gan was furious and answered in a rough mulberry voice, "Nanhuang, since you have no fear, you shouldn't have broken the bridge. Why do you need to say these useless things now?"
When Xu Mingdong heard this, his expression became slightly stiff, "Huh... do you know what tactics are?"
"I don't understand..." Shi Gandang shook his head casually, "I only know that the Southern Dynasty's army was defeated, and their emperor left them in ruins and fled!"
"Then, after occupying some advantageous terrain, he started talking nonsense again!"
"You..." Xu Mingdong was speechless by Shi Gandang's retort. His fists were clenched tightly and rattling, "Come here if you dare!"
Shi Gan said: "The Wu Chao army will definitely pass, but not now!"
"Nanhuang, let me give you some advice. Wash your neck and wait for us!"
These words made Nanhuang Chenggong angry again.
Originally, Xu Mingdong wanted to provoke Shi Gandang and let him lead his soldiers in a charge. In this way, he could take advantage of the other side and defeat Shi Gandang in one fell swoop.
Who would have thought that Shi Gandang would be so angry that he didn't succeed, but would instead make himself embarrassed.
Ahhhh...
It felt so angry in my heart.
However, for the sake of the emperor's face, he still endured it.
Xu Mingdong immediately shouted again, "Then I will be waiting for you here from today on!"
"But please don't let me down!"
Tit for tat.
In my heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses are galloping past.
The murderous intention is not ordinary strong.
Shi Gandang, without further ado, took the bow and arrow hanging from the saddle, pulled it up and shot directly.
Whoosh!
The long arrow flew across the rushing river and stabbed directly at Xu Mingdong. The soldiers around him had quick eyes and quick hands, and they formed a shield between the lightning and flint to block the sharp arrow.
Although this is just an ordinary arrow, this arrow contains too much meaning.
That's right, Shi Gandang directly defied the emperor of the Southern Dynasty.
Xu Mingdong was very angry and gritted his teeth, "This bastard..."
Shi Gandang left Beiqiaotou and returned to Dengtian Pass. By this time, the battle here had ended.
I have to say that this battle was quite brutal.
Casualties were basically one to one.
However, relatively speaking, the combat effectiveness of the Wu Dynasty Army was still stronger than that of the Southern Dynasty Army.
In this battle, more than 70,000 people were lost, 10,000 were seriously injured, and 20,000 were slightly injured.
As for the Southern Dynasty army, all the previous 100,000 people were destroyed, and nearly 30,000 people finally surrendered.
The Battle of Dengtianguan was also a tragic victory.
Soon, three or four high-ranking lieutenants came to Shi Gandang. Their purpose of coming was to ask how to deal with the prisoners. They didn't go around in circles and told them straight away.
Shi Gandang looked around at the people in front of him, "What do you think?"
"We have asked General Lei, he means, kill!"
"If we don't kill them, we still have to support them. Thirty thousand people, the consumption in one day is really too much!"
"Yes General!"
Naturally, Shi Gandang was not a soft-hearted person. He said solemnly: "Since I have no objection, let's kill him!"
"clear!"
After the order was issued, the process of disposing of the prisoners began. Because there were nearly 30,000 prisoners here, there were too many uncertain factors, and only by killing them could we get rid of them once and for all.
Otherwise, the consequences are unpredictable!
In this way, the mountain pass became the burial ground for soldiers of the Southern Dynasties.
All of them had their heads drooped, their faces were ashen, and they had no energy at all.
Even if death shrouded him, there was not the slightest resistance.
As arrows rained down, screams rang out, and blood flowed into rivers... staining the ground red, as if the sky turned blood red.
Three days passed by in a flash, and the battlefield was basically cleared.
Now, Dengtianguan has planted the dragon flag of the Wu Dynasty, announcing its ownership.
In the military account, Shi Gandang was sitting in the upright position, looking at the map found in Chong'an Shi's body, and said in a deep voice: "In this Southern Dynasty, in addition to Dentian Pass, there is another gateway, that is Mingguan Bridge. As long as this
The bridge is broken, and our army will basically be unable to move forward at all!"
The lieutenants present all frowned.
Soon, someone said, "What if we take advantage of the warships?"
"It doesn't work... The map shows that this Mingguan River is a river within the territory and does not enter the river mouth at all!" Shi Gandang shook his head and sighed.
"So, if we want to capture the Southern Dynasty as soon as possible, we can only pass through Mingguan Bridge!" Lei Yi was injured and could only lie down and answer the words slowly.
"yes!"
Shi Gandang drew a picture on the Mingguan Bridge, "But now, building a bridge here is as difficult as climbing to the sky!"
"There is a fast-flowing river below, and there are hundreds of defenders on the other side of the south bank. There is no chance at all!"
"Now I really agree with the saying, one man is in charge, and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it!"
Everyone present nodded solemnly. To be honest, it was a bit difficult.
"this……"
All of them were speechless.
Lei Yi answered, "Don't be discouraged, I believe everyone can come up with a perfect plan!"
"Hmm..." Everyone nodded.
Shi Gandang thought hard, but there was still no way to cross the bridge. He had no choice but to send people eight hundred miles away to tell Jiangning, who was far away in the capital, about the battle situation here.
Because the distance is relatively long, the person who delivers the letter has to take a boat or ride a horse.
Soon, more than a month passed...
On this day, an extraordinary and handsome war horse galloped in the capital of the Wu Dynasty. The person holding the battle report was a commander, "Southern Army Report, give way quickly!"
"Southern Military News, give way quickly!"
The Golden Dragon Guards at the city gate opened the city gate as quickly as possible after hearing the sound, keeping the route of delivering the message to the commander unimpeded.
In this way, the captain saw Jiang Ning as quickly as possible.
Make a big bow.
In one breath, he reported the war situation in the south, then vomited blood and died on the Golden Palace.
When Jiang Ning saw it, he was very moved, "A man from the Wu Dynasty, be brave!"
He walked to the dead commander and took off a token from his waist... This is an identity badge, which was found in the Wu Dynasty army from top to bottom.
"Hu Yi..."
Jiang Ning muttered to himself and immediately said:
"When someone comes, Hu Yi will be immediately rewarded with the title of captain of ten thousand men, a thousand taels of silver, a hundred acres of fertile land, and a hereditary official title!"
