"Li Chengzhi...is this Jingzhou Li Erlang who suddenly appeared in the world like a unicorn's horn and a tiger's wings last spring?"
"Exactly!"
Chang Yi's eyes narrowed slightly: "I remember that King Guangping and the county magistrate met with His Majesty in Jingzhong (Jiankang), saying that when the two of them assassinated Yuan Ke years ago, it was already done. But because of this, the son hindered it.
Only then did the success fall short?"
Yu Zhong gritted his teeth involuntarily: "That's the thief!"
"Do you ever remember that Li Chengzhi at that time was the fifth-ranked Tiger General of Suolu (a disparaging term for the Northern Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties, meaning that he did not tie his crown but wear braids)?"
"The county magistrate has a good memory... It was because he tried his best to turn the tide of the crisis and rescued Yuan Ke and his ministers. Therefore, when Yuan Ke was dying, he made an exception and conferred the title of Duke on Li Chengzhi. And because he was already a high-ranking official.
He became a member of the party, and later asked to marry the daughter of Yuan Jia, and made good friends with Yuan Yi, Liu Fang, and Cui Guang. He already accounted for five of the eight assistants. Therefore, under the balance of many parties, Chao Yan worshiped him as the marshal of the rebellion and was awarded the title of marshal.
Li Shao and Diao Zheng served as the left and right governors..."
I have such a bad memory?
"Since he was the commander-in-chief of the rebellion and was unable to put down the rebellion in Guanzhong, why did he abandon the army and rush to Beizhen for more than 2,000 miles?"
Chang Yizhi's pupils shrank to pinpoints, "Mr. Yu, could it be that you, Lu Yan, and Dou Ling's plan have long been exposed?"
Yu Zhong showed a wry smile: "Lu Yan's plan to rebel internally and Dou to lead external alliances was agreed upon during the patrol of six towns in winter last year. There were only three people like me who knew about it. And for such a big event, not one person can do it."
Shen means that all nine tribes will be wiped out, who dares to say anything?
Furthermore, if the news really leaked out, the imperial court or the six towns should have heard about it first, and they should have taken various measures to deal with it long ago, and it is definitely not the case that neither of them knew anything about it until the incident happened."<
/p>
"Then how did Li Chengzhi find out?"
Chang Yizhi pointed to the urgent letter from Lu Yan, his face full of suspicion: "Li Chengzhi led the tiger cavalry to the six towns, brought his retainers and dressed as merchant soldiers into the city, and at dawn on December 18th, he cooperated with the outside and broke through the fertile fields.
……
And when Dou Ling has led more than 10,000 elite cavalry into the pass...it is clear that Li Chengzhi is not only aware of your plan, but also knows it in detail, and even the time is exactly the same..."
This question left Yu Zhong speechless and didn't know how to answer.
After a long time, he said: "We received a secret report from close associates in the DPRK and China, saying that Li Chengzhi reported to the imperial court afterwards: He originally went to Xiazhou to discuss with the governor Gao Meng about pacifying Bo Gu Lv, but he did not arrive in Xiazhou.
I was shocked to hear that after the governor's envoy Yuan Yi arrived in Woye, there was no news for several days.
He knew something was wrong, so he drove lightly and went to investigate secretly, and happened to crash Lu Yan's plan to cause trouble... so it was all a mistake..."
"It's because of a strange combination of circumstances... Director Li Cheng is so faithful to the report, so the court will believe it?"
Yu Zhong and Yuan Li nodded in unison: "I believe it!"
Chang Yizhi felt as if he had a toothache, and his facial features were twisted into a ball: "Ignore the young emperor for now, is it possible that the Empress Dowager Gao and all the princes in the palace are all fools?"
Yu Zhong and Yuan Li looked at each other and sighed.
The princes in the court are certainly not fools, but compared with pacifying the rebellion in Woye, the rest are nothing. Even if Li Chengzhi said that he just waved his hand, Woye was settled and Dou Ling was destroyed, no one would doubt it.<
/p>
Chang Yizhi's intention is self-evident: I don't care whether the Yuan and Wei dynasties were fools, but don't fool me like a fool.
Seeing this, Yuan Li, who had already made up her mind, didn't even bother to say anything perfunctory: "To be honest with you, since the beginning of Li Chengzhi's rise to prominence in Jingzhou, there have been rumors in the world that he was given by heaven. Later, he received it.
After he was summoned to Luoyang, the thief did many novel things, and his words were even louder... Therefore, some people in the court suspected that this festival should have been reached before he sent troops to the capital..."
Does this mean that Li Chengzhi can figure out things and predict things like a god?
Chang Yizhi really wants to curse.
What about Tao Jinghong? Rumor has it that he was known for five hundred years before and five hundred years later. He was a god who only came into the world once in a thousand years.
But whoever knows the truth deeply doesn’t know that the so-called living god is actually just a Taoist priest who knows a lot about health preservation and is the leader in elixirs.
Furthermore, if Li Chengzhi was really good at calculating, why didn't he figure out Yuan Huai and Yu Zhong's plot to assassinate Yuan Ke?
Are you really trying to fool me as a fool?
Seeing the troubled expressions on Yuan Li and Yu Zhong's faces, and even some fear hidden in them, Chang Yi was filled with surprise and suspicion.
These two extraordinary people actually seem to think so?
Ridiculous!
He held back his anger and lowered his head to read.
But the more I looked at it, the more suspicious I became, and the more I looked at it, the more horrified I became.
After pacifying the fertile fields, Li Chengzhi defeated the twelve tribes of Du Lun in several days with less than 20,000 troops, and broke through Mancheng, Tingtou, the ancestral home of the Huns... not only defeated the Dou leader, but also nearly annihilated the Du Lun tribe?
Then he went south overnight and lured the enemy deep into the west of Longshan Mountain. In a hasty battle, he defeated five thousand of Luo's elite cavalry. If Fulo hadn't seen the opportunity quickly and cut off the rear with an entire guard, there would have been more casualties?
After that, it was the Battle of Qingshui: Yuanji had more than 10,000 troops and made many arrangements, but Qingshui, with its high walls and strong walls, was broken in just half a day...
No wonder Yuan Li looked troubled, and Fu Luo seemed to be frightened, because what was contained in this letter was really unbelievable.
A thunder weapon that is like a punishment from heaven?
A rocket that can even burn through iron armor and cannot be extinguished by water?
If this statement is true, then with only these two things in hand, not to mention one hundred thousand, even a million-strong army would not be enough to kill Li Chengzhi?
Chang Yizhi wanted to curse, "You thieves dare to bully me," but after thinking about what was contained in this letter and looking at the faces of these three people at this moment, the words came to his lips but he couldn't spit them out.
These three are not three-year-olds, how can they still follow others' opinions and be deceived at will?
He must have seen it with his own eyes and experienced it personally, so he would be so afraid of the difficulty. He also thought that there was no hope of victory, so he would give him advice on the occasion of the battle.
It means...let’s stop fighting and withdraw our troops?
Return your mother...
That's all. Yu Zhong, after rebelling from Luoyang a year ago, he and Yuan Huai went around to lobby in many places, sometimes going to Beizhen, sometimes Jiankang, sometimes to Shudun City, sometimes Rouran Ke Hanting. But Yuan Li and Yuan Ji did not
He has been in charge of the two states of Qin and Liang, but if there is any military information, he will definitely report it to these two people.
But why didn’t Yuan Li report any relevant information to the Southern Dynasty for two whole months?
Calculating the time, it had been nearly two months since Li Chengzhi captured the leader of Dou and destroyed Du Lun's tribe. Not to mention sending fast horses, he sent two infantrymen to report back to Hanzhong in peace and quiet. At this time
Can you walk two or three times back and forth?
This traitor has no good intentions... He is afraid that if the emperor (Xiao Yan) is shocked to hear about the change, he will hesitate and delay sending troops.
So what does it mean to tell the truth now?
Naturally, he is afraid that he will not know the details and underestimate the enemy and suffer a big loss if he rushes in. But he is unwilling to do so. Even if he is cheating, he wants to deceive himself into having a chance encounter with Li Chengzhi?
I just look like a young bird?
If you think more deeply, the thunder and rocket in this urgent report are really real?
Chang Yi's anger became more intense, and he was filled with surprise and suspicion. Even though he had cultivated his Qi cultivation skills very deeply, he couldn't help but feel a cold light in his eyes at this time.
This is an army of 100,000 people. They traveled hundreds of miles over mountains and ridges. How much financial and material resources did it cost to move the country?
Even the daily food and grass requirements are at least about three thousand dan.
With the combined efforts of Hanzhong, how many two thousand shi of grain can be produced in one year?
Chang Yizhi's eyes were like arrows, scanning over the faces of Yu Zhong, Yuan Li, Fulo and others one by one, stabbing the faces of these three people with a faint chill, but his tone was extremely calm, as if he was talking about something irrelevant.
Things:
"Based on what I have seen at this time, you are already as fearful of the Li family's child as a tiger. It can be seen that he must be superior to others, and the report in this letter is not false...Furthermore, since ancient times, soldiers have been brave.
, even the three of them are so afraid of difficulties, how can their subordinates have any military spirit at all, and how can they have any thoughts of victory?
Therefore, even if Chang has the courage to defend the sky, he is unable to recover. So, just avoid the battle and retreat..."
The expressions of the three people all changed.
In the past two months, all the shocking changes have been too unbelievable. I was afraid that Chang Yi would not believe it, so I told him the truth, so that he would have confidence in his heart and not underestimate the enemy. But if he used too much force, the old man would be born.
Feeling afraid?
No... there's no trace of fear on Chang Yi's face, instead he seems to be gnashing his teeth in hatred?
This old thief is not scared, but angry?
What if he really wants to stop doing nothing and withdraw his troops?
Fuluo was anxious and said quickly: "If we just retreat, will the county magistrate be willing to do so?"
"Why are you unwilling to give in?"
Chang Yizhi laughed and said, "It's just a matter of spending some food and grass... I have a large land in Daliang, and the weather has been good these years. Not to mention that it only supplies the needs of a hundred thousand troops for three or two months, or three or two years, and it's nothing more than nine losses."
A dime..."
He changed the topic and stared at Fuluo, "Your country is naturally not bad, and your Excellency only sent 30,000 troops this time, and they are all elite cavalry, with horse power to rely on, and it only takes a few days to come and go.
, is much faster than me, and saves more than ten times the food and grass... Therefore, if you have no intention of fighting, you can retreat with me, and you can be a companion on the road..."
Be a bird feather?
You just spent some food and grass, but grandpa lost nearly 6,000 fine knights. If you go back in such a dejected manner, how will you explain to Hehan?
Do you think Fulianchou’s knife can’t cut Grandpa’s neck?
Although he thought so in his heart, Fuluo said very proudly: "It's too early for the county prince to say that he will withdraw his troops at this time. To be honest with the county prince, it is not me, Murong Fuluo, who has treacherous ambition and destroyed his own prestige.
:
What Li's son did was extremely weird, and it really made me feel afraid. But now he is far away in Qinzhou, and even if he travels in a hurry, it will take several days to arrive. So why don't we take a preemptive strike and wait until he comes back for help?
, wipe out all Li Shao first? When Li Chengzhi is left without help, what can he do if he has many sharp weapons but insufficient troops?"
Yuan Li added: "What Mr. Fu Luo said is absolutely true... If we retreat like this, all the hard work we have done before will be in vain? Yuan must be unwilling to die, so we have come here to offer our advice."
Governor...as long as the county magistrate is willing to fight, no one in Yuan Mou or his tens of thousands of men will dare to disobey any order..."
"County Lord, let's fight. If we miss the next two days, we will never have such a good opportunity again. Even if we are all determined to fight to the death, I am afraid we will also fall into a bitter battle..."
So this is what these bastards had in mind?
Chang Yi's face softened a little, and the annoyance in his heart receded a lot, but his face was still cold: "Do you really want to fight to the death?"
The three of them stood up together: "How dare you deceive the governor?"
"Is it true that I am following Weichang's order?"
This time, the three of them were not so willing, but fortunately they still replied in unison: "As long as the county waits for the horse to follow its lead!"
"I have my wish, but I don't dare to ask for help... That's the case, Chang will do his part... Come here!"
Following Chang Yi's order, Join the Army immediately presented the map and laid it out on the case.
Seeing this, the three of them looked at each other, and a suspicion arose in their hearts.
Don't look at Chang Yizhi as an old farmer, with a kind face and kind eyes. But his military skills are cunning and unpredictable, like a dragon with no head or tail. Otherwise, he would not have achieved such a great reputation and was praised as the first famous general in the Southern Dynasty.<
/p>
And when such a person encounters a military situation, he will be suspicious even if he has no knowledge. How can he be so easy to fool today?
At the end of the day, we should also ask how powerful the thunder weapon is and how weird the firearm is?
While I was guessing, I heard Chang Yi's order again: "Jing Jun!"
"The end is here!"
"Lead the elite cavalry of our central army and leave the camp immediately to explore to the west. If there is any sign of Li Chengzhi's eastward aid, please report to me quickly..."
"No!"
"Cui Xiong!"
"The end is here!"
"Lead another thousand elite cavalry to follow Jing Jun. If they encounter the Wei army, they will attack them with thunderous force. As long as you don't see the thunder weapons and firearms of the Wei army, you can't retreat even half a step..."
Chang Yizhi paused for a moment, and his eyes were cold and solemn: "This battle will lead to death. If you die in the battle, I will raise your parents and my wife. What do you wish?"
"How dare you disobey your orders?"
"Okay!"
A smile suddenly appeared on Chang Yi's face, "Wait for a moment, don't ask for help from other heroes..."
When they heard "This battle will lead to death, there will be no life", the three of them were still wondering, thinking that Cui Xiong had a grudge against Chang Yi Zhi, otherwise why would he be sent to die?
But when they heard "Don't ask the heroes to help you", the three people's hearts skipped a beat, and they all secretly said "No!"
As expected.
Chang Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze passed over the faces of the three people in turn, and finally he laughed: "You have all experienced hundreds of battles and are very good at using soldiers. Therefore, you know that only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles. Therefore, Chang needs to use cavalry
Only by wandering and fighting can we test out the thunder and rockets you mentioned, how tricky they are.
But you also know that our country has many mountains and ridges, and there is no grassy wilderness to raise horses. Therefore, although a certain person has one hundred thousand elites, he only has five thousand armored cavalry.
Now with two battalions as scouts and two more battalions to protect my camp, there are only a thousand left. And with these one thousand fine cavalry fighting against Li Chengzhi's tiger cavalry, it will undoubtedly be an egg against a stone. Therefore, I need you to lend a helping hand.
I wonder if anyone would be willing to send their confidants to help?"
The three of them were shocked.
No wonder this old thief agreed so quickly, and no wonder he just asked emphatically, "I am the only one who really wishes to obey Chang's orders"?
It turns out that I am waiting here: I can fight if I want, but if you want me, Chang, to take the lead, or even shoulder the responsibility... Do you think that my surname is Chang, an idiot? Just dream of your dreams! p>
If you say it out loud and throw out water, can these three people still say "I don't want to" at this time?
I'm afraid that if I show any signs of embarrassment, Chang Yi will turn around and withdraw his troops.
As he said, he only spent some food and grass anyway. But Yuan Li, Yu Zhong, and Fulo suffered huge losses...
