Chapter 139: War or Peace

Chen Kebin's expression darkened: "Although we have a big advantage in this battle, the combat strength of the Jin people is really strong, and our army has killed more than 20,000 people. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info of which more than 6,000 are brothers who are stationed in Wolf City with the marshal. ”

Li Yangliang sighed for a long time.

Li Ju gritted his teeth, and his eyes turned red in an instant. Chen Kebin and the rest of the generals were also silent.

"Chen Kebin, the follow-up troops of the Jin people, how long will it take to arrive?" Li Yang let out a long sigh and asked in a hoarse voice.

Chen Kebin replied: "About two hours." On the other side, the Yuan Meng's department was waiting for the arrival of follow-up reinforcements from the Jin people. Miss Wan'er instructed us to quickly clear the battlefield and evacuate immediately to avoid a head-on collision with the Jin army. ”

Li Yang nodded and looked around. After the war, the desert was in shambles, the smoke was billowing out, the firelight was splashing, and the dust and sand of the desert were dyed red with blood.

In the distance, long planks lined up with dry branches underneath. The bodies of the fallen soldiers were neatly placed together, and tens of thousands of troops stood quietly on the side. Gazing at the comrades-in-arms who get along day and night, tears flickered.

Chen Kebin tightened his palms and said, "Have you collected all the remains of the brothers?"

"Those who died in battle outside the city were all gathered in one place, and the remains were sorted out." The generals' noses were sour: "The ones in the wolf city, I'm afraid I can't find them."

The fireworks in Wolf City are the best tribute to them.

Li Yang sighed and slowly walked towards the remains of the fallen soldiers. Young faces flashed in front of my eyes, some familiar and some unfamiliar.

Although the remains have been sorted out, the tragic death is still shocking. They are all wives, husbands, parents and children, and how many of them are praying day and night for their safe return? How did they know that the people in their dreams they were worried about day and night had already turned into a pile of white bones under the slanting sun in the depths of the desert.

Li Yang's heart was like a knife, two lines of tiger tears dripping silently, and he knelt on the ground silently, followed by Chen Kebin, Li Ju, and many generals.

Tens of thousands of soldiers burst into tears, followed behind the coach, and knelt down. After being silent for a long time, Chen Kebin said softly: "Marshal, the time has come, we can't let the remains of my brothers fall into the hands of the people of Jinguo, please give my brothers a ride."

Li Yang let out a long breath, took the torch in Li Ju's hand, gritted his teeth, and threw the torch into the dead branches, and the raging fire slowly spread from near and far, engulfing the young ground holes.

Since then, in the depths of the desert, there have been tens of thousands of heroic souls.

"Go—" he roared, turning his horse's head and taking the lead. Tens of thousands of troops straddled their horses, followed behind the commander, and disappeared in the dust, and countless majestic figures slowly disappeared in the depths of the desert dust and sand......

The news of the great victory in the battle of Wolf City, as if it had grown wings, quickly spread to the capital, Shuofang, and Yanmen Pass, and there was jubilation inside and outside the south of the Yangtze River.

Countless soldiers of the garrison were overjoyed and enthusiastic, and tears of excitement were sprinkled all over the battlements of the fort. The dispute between the two countries of Jin Zhou has lasted for a hundred years, depressed and depressed, and finally snowed in the present day, this moment of raising eyebrows, Da Zhou has been waiting for too long and too long.

Although there were only more than 40,000 enemies annihilated in the first battle, it was achieved under the condition that the number of people in the Great Zhou was at a disadvantage.

This is a milestone victory, which is of great significance to boost the morale of the people and soldiers of the Great Zhou.

Zhao Mu even personally issued an edict to reward the soldiers who died in battle, and in order to show his favor, he also ordered someone to specially build a heroic soul tomb to bury these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country.

Of course, this is also Shen Qiwu's attention for him.

In Li Yang's tent, everyone gathered to celebrate the victory.

However, Li Yang has always kept a clear mind in his heart, although the people of the Jin Kingdom lost 40,000 elites in the first battle, there are still 260,000 horses in front of the wolf city. In this battle, the Jin State was defeated by pride and underestimated the enemy, and it was a lone army that went deep, so that the Great Zhou could highlight the plot and defeat the enemy.

This battle has a certain chance and cannot be replicated. With the advancement of the war, the people of the Jin country have grown wiser, and their vigilance has increased a lot, and it is difficult to have such a big victory.

Li Wan, as a military advisor, was obviously aware of this, and when the tent was quiet, she pointed to the map on the wall and said in a deep voice: "The current location of our army is on the line at the northern foot of Helan Mountain, about four hundred miles away from Wolf City. Walking along the Helan Mountain Gorge, it is the Yanmen Pass, which is also the back of our army. We are the only line of defense in front of Yanmen Pass. The battle of Wolf City, although it ended in a great victory for our army, but the main force of the Jin people and Yuan Xiangjie's army have been united under the wolf city, and there are still 200,000 people, and they are all the elite of the Jin country. Due to the great victory of our army in the first battle, far beyond the expectations of the Jin people, the Jin national division Gong Ni has changed his strategy, and the Jin cavalry no longer blindly advances, but adopts a steady and steady momentum and advances layer by layer. We have to find another chance to win like Wolf City, but I'm afraid it's not so easy. ”

Miss Li Wan's words suddenly made the big tent fall silent. If the people of the Jin Kingdom quit their impatience and rashness, then their combat power will be too terrifying. There is also Gong Ni, the national teacher of the Jin Kingdom, whose cleverness and wit have long been known to everyone.

"Generals, what do you think of the current situation?" Miss Li Wan sighed slightly. His eyes swept over the generals in the tent and asked softly. The grim situation was in front of us, and the joy of the first victory was diluted a lot, and there was silence in the big tent, and everyone was frowning and pondering.

How to fight the next battle, this is also a question that Zhao Mu, as the emperor, has been thinking about, with the wisdom of the Jin Guoshi, he will never make a second mistake.

The people of the Jin Kingdom fought steadily, and although the speed of movement slowed down, the power increased a lot. The pressure on the Great Zhou will be even greater. "Strategist, if our army sets up a position and confronts the Jinren. What are the odds?" Li Ji pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth and asked.

Although Li Wan is his daughter, there is no father and daughter in the army. He still called Li Wan a military advisor.

Miss Li Wan shook her head lightly: "In terms of numbers alone, the number of people in the Jin Kingdom far exceeds that of our army. Our army has an advantage in firearms and crossbows, but the cavalry of the Jin State is more powerful in individual combat. Especially the vast desert around Helan Mountain, although there is a long river and natural dangers, it has been overcome by the Jin army. If we want to fight, our army's chance of victory is less than 30%. I'm afraid that the people of the Jin country are also looking forward to this moment. ”

The decisive battle is no way out, until the last moment. It must not be used lightly, Li Ju sighed.

Li Wan's eyes unconsciously looked at Zhao Mu, and said in a deep voice: "Whether it is war or peace, or should it be up to Your Majesty to decide." ”

This big victory made the people of Jin feel pain. I also have a new understanding of the invasion of the Great Zhou, and as for war or peace, it is something that the emperor should worry about.
