Xie Youliang was greatly injured in this battle, and countless soldiers were burned to death, and more importantly, his own brother was burned to death. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although he is tough and suspicious, his father died early, and between him and his younger siblings, in addition to playing the role of elder brother, he also works part-time as a father. Now, when I think of my only brother being burned to death in the fire like that, I don't know how uncomfortable it will be before I die!
Although he didn't cry, his nose was sour, and he desperately endured the tears.
But this incident affected him in the end.
Since then, people who have seen Xie Youliang feel that he no longer has the high spirits he had before, and he has become depressed and depressed. King Han's mood was seriously contagious to all the soldiers. Wait until every night to make it more obvious.
Xie Youliang even asked very gently: "If you have any ideas, you can say them." He himself was already a little discouraged.
But in the past few months of contact, the generals have understood that King Han is a very tough person, because before, he had the final say on big and small matters, and even if he held a meeting, he just conveyed his own opinions. Although everyone also retreated, no one dared to speak out.
When the battle started the next day, Liu Jun's morale was high today because of yesterday's victory, forcing the Han army to retreat again and again.
Xie Youliang is all a building boat, compared with Liu Chengfang's boat, it is inevitable that it is not so flexible, the front is in a hurry to retreat, the back can't move, and when they collide together, they will be messed up.
From the morning to noon of the battle between the two sides, the Han army suffered countless deaths, retreated one after another, and was chased by the Yasukuni Gong like a lost dog.
Xie Youliang was relieved, so he asked his subordinates for their opinions, but at this time, Liu Jun had already blocked the mouth of the lake and blocked the retreat of the Han army.
General Zuo retreated: Since others have blocked the way out, we should burn the boat and go ashore, and then find another way out when we get ashore.
The main battle of the right general: We have already suffered a defeat, if we retreat at this time, we will not only lose a large area of Tucheng, but also lose the general trend.
Xie Youliang felt that General You's words were reasonable, so he listened to his advice and continued to wage war with Liu's army.
General Zuo said in his heart: So many people have died, even his own brother is dead, and he has not learned a lesson. It's clear that 600,000 people are trapped and 40,000 people are trapped, but they actually fight like this! With such a person, let alone enjoying the glory and wealth, I am afraid that even my life will be taken if I am not careful.
General Zuo's heart was horizontal, "Lao Tzu is going to change places, brothers don't want to die, follow me to Yasukuni's side." ”
After speaking, he directly returned to Liu Chengfang.
When General Right got the news, his fighting spirit instantly retreated: he had already suffered a defeat, and there were fewer and fewer people, and General Zuo had surrendered again, and it was difficult for me to become a forest alone, so it was better to lower it, and there was still a companion over there.
General Right also went directly to Liu Chengfang's side.
Liu Chengfang was overjoyed and personally wrote a letter of persuasion to Xie Youliang.
The content of the persuasion book is about this: Before that, we had the same purpose, to drive away the Tartars and restore the Han people. My original intention was to be neighbors with you, not to invade each other, and to live in harmony, but you went against the sky, repeatedly invaded, and I only used a very small number of soldiers to seize your thirteen counties of Longxing, but you still do not want to repent, repeatedly come to attack, provoke wars for no reason, and cause the flesh and blood soldiers to die in the fire, if you have the heart to repent, you should cancel the emperor's name, and sit and wait for the real master.
When Xie Youliang read the letter, he was furious, and immediately tore up the letter and threw it into the lake.
However, it didn't take long for the food to run out.
At this time, if you don't want to sit still, you can only choose to break through.
Liu Chengfang would not allow him to leave easily at this time, and the two sides were fighting fiercely.
The Liu army became more and more courageous, and the Han army fought and retreated.
This battle was fought from morning to evening, and Xie Youliang still did not get rid of Liu Chengfang's pursuit.
What is even more unexpected is that when Xie Youliang stuck his head out of the cabin to direct the battle, he just in time for Liu Yonghui to rush over with the fire gun, and hit him in the head at once, killing him on the spot.
Prince Xie Hu was arrested on the spot.
At this time, it was getting late, so Taiwei took advantage of the sky as a cover, and took Xie Youliang's second son Xie Long back to Wuchang with Xie Youliang's corpse and supported Xie Long as the emperor.
Liu Chengfang stood on the Tengwang Pavilion, looking at this place where "Luoxia and lonely birds fly together, autumn water and Changtian are the same color", and his heart was full of emotion for a while.
On the way here, he only thought that it was not easy to win by luck, but he didn't expect Xie Youliang to die here directly.
"In the future, it will be called Nanchang, and it will be the prosperous place of the south." Liu Chengfang said.
"It's better to restore the old name, the Tartar bullshit doesn't understand, and he will change his name randomly." Someone chimed in.
Some people even said: "Since the lord has even changed the name of Longxing, why not also change Jiqing?" ”
Liu Chengfang felt reasonable, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Jiqing has had many names throughout the ages, but we drove away the Tartars, just to restore the Han nationality and make everyone live a good life. ”
Xu Qing: "As soon as Xie Youliang dies, Xie Long will not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility, and the rest will be just a group of rabble." ”
Liu Chengfang: "What the marshal said is very reasonable, which general is willing to educate Xie Long?" ”
All the generals are willing to go.
When the news came back to Jinling, Wang Jing said to Liu Yongan: "I guess my father will send Lord Liao to Wuchang." ”
The Lord Liao in her mouth is naturally the uncle of Xu Qing's maternal grandfather and the father-in-law of Liu Chengfang's second son.
Although Liu Yongan and his wife did not directly participate in the war, the fire crossbow and fire gun were presented by the couple, which is the key to the decisive victory, even if Liu Chengfang does not reward them, everyone in the army already knows it. Liu Chengfang was afraid that the eldest son's power would be too great, so he would definitely cultivate the second son's Yue's family in order to find a balance.
Liu Yongan understood what she meant, nodded and said, "That's very good." ”
Wang Jing smiled slightly: "For example, today, there is no one who can compare with my father." Xie Long just couldn't help himself, but he was afraid that as soon as General Liao arrived, he would be surrendered directly. As for Zhang Zhicheng, the king of Wu, there is nothing to be afraid of at all. ”
Liu Yongan raised his eyebrows, "If you talk about it, although Xie Youliang occupies a large territory and has many subordinates, it is not as rich as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Zhang Zhicheng has been guarding the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang for more than ten years, Xie Youliang has sprung up and fought wars year after year, and there is not much money at all." ”
Without money, you can't support the huge military needs, what to use to go to war?
Liu Yongan means that if the Liu family really fights with Zhang Zhicheng, it will definitely not be supported by Zhang Zhicheng for a long time.
Wang Jing: "The talented people in the south and the generals in the north, the southerners are rich, the north is barren, the southerners have always looked down on the rough people who fight and kill, if there is a war, which time will not surrender first?" The southerners live a comfortable life, as for who is the emperor, they don't care at all, the scholars are more concerned about the interests of the family. King Wu is only afraid that he is preparing for the New Year. ”
Liu Yongan: "The stone in my heart has finally landed. ”
He had been worried about his father before, and he was worried that Zhang Zhicheng would take advantage of the fire to rob him, and take the opportunity of Liu Chengfang's personal expedition to make a surprise attack and raid his home. Hearing that "King Wu is preparing for the New Year", I couldn't help but be happy.
Before he finished speaking, he saw that his subordinates had already run in, "King Wu has surrounded us." (To be continued.) )
