Chapter 516

Coming down from the mountain peak, hundreds of miles later, Wang Chong and the others soon met the second ** who rushed to support, and the general of this ** was Xu Chun'an, all of whom were veterans in the army. The two armies merged into one, and Wang Chong's soldiers and horses exploded from more than 5,000 to more than 11,000 in an instant.

This was the first time that Wang Chong had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. Although it seems to be only 3,000 more, the difference is a fraction of a millimeter. For the top generals, Han Xin's generals are as good as possible, and the number of soldiers and horses under his command reaches more than 10,000, so the strategy is completely different. With these 110,000 soldiers, for Wang Chong, there is much more room for mobilization and play.

Wang Chong was able to easily defeat a fierce general like Bachicheng and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses with a small number of casualties, and it would be even easier to deal with the remaining 6,000 men and horses.

The rest of the battle is simpler!

Without Bachicheng and without the Yang Dalu, the remaining Wusizang soldiers and horses did not last long, and they were easily wiped out by Wang Chong with twice the force.

The war went faster than the first battle, and in just an hour, the battle was over.

......

"My lord, my subordinates left early!"

At the end of the war, Li Siye did not have the slightest ease in his heart. Wang Chong's battle was over, but his battle had just begun. But for what he was going to do next, even Li Siye was confused in his heart.

"Well, go ahead. The next thing is none of your business. ”

Wang Chong sat on the horse and nodded, his expression without the slightest wave. In him, Li Siye can't see the slightest hesitation, he always seems to know what he's doing and what he wants to do, in him, Li Siye can't see a little confusion. This made Li Siye more or less confident in this operation.

"I'll give you this tip!"

Wang Chong took off a bag from his waist, and judging from the knots on the bag, it seemed that the bag had been prepared for a long time.

"If you go this time, if the operation is successful, the Us-Tibetans will definitely divide their forces against you. In any case, you have to remember not to covet the merits of war, and not to be rash. Everything I have made clear in the bag, you must strictly follow the note in the bag!"

Speaking of this, Wang Chong's expression was extremely solemn.

For Li Siye, Wang Chong has always respected. But because of this, when Wang Chong's expression was serious, it was particularly impressive.

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

Li Siye glanced at Wang Chong deeply, quickly took the bag from Wang Chong's hand, lowered his head, and respectfully gave a military salute.

"Don't worry, no matter what, I will definitely complete the task strictly—— let's go!"

Speaking the last sentence, Li Siye waved his hand and led more than 1,000 elite horsemen, fully armed, and galloped away. Behind him, the air was filled with the strong smell of blood.

"Childe ......"

And farther away, Xu Duwei, Zhao Jingdian, and the eagle looked at the back of Li Siye leaving one by one, with a confused look in their eyes. Li Siye's mission this time is very mysterious, and the route of action is completely different from everyone else, except for Wang Chongyi, no one knows where Li Siye is going at this critical moment.

This is really too confusing, but despite this, no one has ever dared to doubt Wang Chong's decision.

Now Wang Chong's reputation in the army has reached the point where even Xu Shiping is difficult to match. It's just Wang Chong's words, I'm afraid that Xu Shiping's subordinates, without saying a word, will immediately follow him, even Xu Shiping can't stop it. It's not that they are not loyal enough or anything, but that Wang Chong used his strength and three victories to win the support of everyone from the bottom of their hearts.

By this time, no one cared about Wang Chong's age, surname, or background, and even if there was no token from King Song, absolutely no one disobeyed his orders.

——Wang Chong has won the command of this army with absolute strength!

"The army is leaving!"

There was no time to feel the serious impact of Li Siye's departure on the strength of the army, and after cleaning up the battlefield, Wang Chong gave an order and led the army under his command to the south. After this victory, Wang Chong finally cleared all obstacles on his way south. Between Wang Chong and Annandu's protectors, there was no longer any barrier.

Time was pressing, and this time Wang Chong did not stay again.

"Is it convenient for adults?"

The journey south was boring and lonely, and when Wang Chong was sitting on his horse and thinking alone, a voice as thin as an ant suddenly sounded in his ears. Xu Duwei Xu Anchun rode a horse, and when no one was paying attention, he quietly and pretended to come over inadvertently. For the young man next to him, Xu Anchun respects him from the bottom of his heart.

Although the time spent together is very short, and the other party's age is probably only the same as his own child, Xu Anchun did not dare to treat him as a child at all, but convinced him and regarded him as the real commander of this army. But because of this, Xu Anchun felt that he had to say something.

“...... There are some things I want to tell my subordinates to my lords. ”

"Captain Xu, what's wrong?"

Wang Chong looked back, a little surprised. Xu Anchun was secretive when he spoke, and his eyebrows looked worried and full of worry.

"My lord, I forgive my subordinates for being abrupt, but there is one thing I have thought about for a long time, and I have to say it. The subordinates believe that the most urgent problem for us now is not Uszang, but, but, ,...... Food Problem!!"

Xu Anchun squeaked for a long time, and finally spit out the last four words. A long silence ensued.

"Go on!"

Wang Chong finally came back to his senses, but didn't say anything, just handed over a look.

"My lord, let's be honest, if you don't show up, even if there is no attack from the Us-Tibetans, we won't be able to hold out for long. I don't know if Xu Shiping told you or not, but their situation is certainly not much better than ours. Five or six thousand soldiers eat horses and chew horses, and this is not a decimal number. Although we are military generals and are fearless in charging into battle, we are not at all strong in logistics. And—"

Xu Anchun glanced at Wang Chong, hesitated, gritted his teeth and continued:

"Before that battle, my subordinates had overheard General Li mention that the Annan Protector had asked the imperial court for help, and their food might not last long......!

Xu Anchun didn't continue, but the worry in his eyes was undoubtedly revealed. He actually noticed the army's food problem very early, but he didn't say it for fear of shaking the army's morale.

"In the battle with the Usi Tibetans, we lost too much baggage and weapons, and as for the grain, the Usi Tibetans were almost burned by the Usi Tibetans. We only have enough food on us for a few days. If the adults hadn't shown up, we would have been preparing to return north. But right now, I'm not against adults. However, with our current situation, whether we meet the Us-Tibetans or not, I am afraid it will be a dead end!"

After the last sentence, Xu Anchun fell into a long silence.

"The emperor is not bad for hungry soldiers", although the warrior has great strength, but after all, he is also a mortal, and he also has to eat grains, if the army is not full, it is good to be able to exert five or six points of ten strength, let alone fight. It's totally suicidal. Xu Anchun didn't want to say it, but as a general in the army, he had to say these things.

The Tibetans of Uss have to follow, but at the moment this matter is urgent and has to be considered.

"You don't have to worry about these things!"

Unexpectedly, when Xu Anchun mustered up the courage to say this thing that would obviously affect the morale of the army, Wang Chong smiled slightly, and said something unexpected:

"It's just some food, you don't have to worry about it, I have my own way!"

"But my lord, even if you ask the court for food now, it's too late. The emperor is far away, and the imperial capital is too far away. Moreover, the grain harvest also requires the cooperation of the six departments to mobilize grain from all over the Tang Dynasty, not to mention the time-consuming and laborious process, and the distant water can't save the fire!"

The worry in Xu Anchun's heart became deeper and deeper. Seeing Wang Chong's stunned and relaxed face, he obviously didn't listen to what he said, which worried him more than the current situation of the army's lack of food. "The people take food as the sky, and the army is like this", if this problem is not solved, the army will mutiny.

"My lord, this matter must be cautious!"

Xu Anchun is really burning inside.

He really couldn't think of it, he had already said it so clearly. Why is Wang Chong still so calm.

"Don't worry, distant water can't cure the thirst of the near, but the near ones are different! When I was still in Jingshi, I had already begun to dispatch food. Rest assured, it's been so long, it's almost time to come. ”

Wang Chong stretched his arms, patted Xu Anchun's shoulder, and smiled slightly.

Although it was only a faint sentence, Wang Chong's expression revealed a strong self-confidence, as if he was strategizing, and nothing could escape his calculations. Even Xu Anchun couldn't help but be stunned for a while. The food of tens of thousands of people is definitely not a trivial matter. In the Battle of the Southwest, the imperial court needed to prepare at least one month's rations.

This is definitely not a small matter. I can't get it in four or five months, and I can't get it in two or three months at the earliest. Xu Anchun really couldn't figure out where Wang Chong got the food. This is not a question of money or not, but such a big opening, which is by no means something that any grain merchant or family can solve.

Even those families who are merchants and specialize in selling grain require a long preparation. And it's definitely not up to that amount.

Xu Anchun's mouth moved, and he wanted to ask something.

But Wang Chong patted him on the shoulder, but he was already gone.

"Strategizing and winning a decisive victory for a thousand miles" is the essence of the art of war. How could Wang Chong make a mistake on such an issue as grain? Although military rations are a big matter, he may not be able to do things that the imperial court cannot do.

"Zhang Munian, people can rely on you in this regard!"

Wang Chong said secretly, a flash of lightning crossed his mind.
