074 Parting of Ways
"Reinforcements, reinforcements have arrived!"
The Six-Nation Coalition relied on the large number of people, and the defenders of Yucheng were miserable with wave after wave of small-scale attacks day and night, and after holding on for six days, they finally waited for reinforcements!
Li Ling marched into Yucheng with an army of 40,000 and a large amount of heavy grain and grass, and the defenders of Yucheng finally had the opportunity to rest.
The soldiers wept with joy as if they were the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, and hugged each other, but inside the tent of the commander of the city, it was a completely different scene.
Due to the serious disagreement on the next combat operation, the generals of Yucheng had already quarreled.
"These people are my soldiers, I can use them however I want! You don't need to point fingers here! A bunch of pedantic and old-fashioned idiots, even if you have a little brain, you should realize that times have changed! β
Although the soldier talisman is in the hands of Meng Fu, and in this era, he only recognizes the soldier talisman and does not recognize people, but Li Ling still has the qualifications to say this, you must know that there are only more than 70,000 soldiers and horses in Yucheng now, of which 40,000 are Li Ling's own, and 10,000 cavalry are similar to the private soldiers of the Ying clan in Longxi County.
Seeing that Li Ling had already said this, Meng Wei hurriedly blasted out some unimportant generals, leaving only Huan Qi, Wang Qian, Meng Wu, Yang Duan and the four.
"Taifu, there are some things you can't say!"
"What Lao Tzu said is the truth! If it continues like this, even the Qin State will die! Lao Tzu said what's wrong? β
Looking at the somewhat angry Mengfu, Li Ling ignored it at all.
"Father, I think what Taifu said makes sense, we should be a little flexible! The previous performance of the Northland cavalry is obvious to all to see, maybe Taifu's idea can really change the current crisis. β
"Rebel! Am I talking about this problem? β
Syllable~~
Suddenly slapped Meng Wu in the face, this slap not only made everyone stunned, even Meng Fu himself was a little stunned, he didn't expect that he would make such a move on impulse.
"General Meng, I know what you are talking about, you just want to say that my words are tantamount to rebellion, but you should know very well that I have no intention of rebellion! As a Taifu, what I have to do is to protect the country of Qin for the king! β
"Taifu, I admire your ability to govern the army, your cavalry is indeed strong, but the reason why you were able to break through the coalition camp so easily that day was because the main forces of the coalition army were all attacking the city, and even after discovering the cavalry charging the camp, that Pang Nuan did not return to the division, but continued to increase the siege force. But now you want to let the cavalry fight alone, it's really inappropriate! β
Meng Fu, who had calmed down, still did not agree with Li Ling's idea of taking out the cavalry alone to fight in the city.
"Since General Meng Fu doesn't believe me, then I don't plan to say anything, I will hand over all the 30,000 foot soldiers to the general today, and I will take the 10,000 cavalry of Longxi County and the more than 10,000 cavalry of mine who entered the city before at midnight today. Tomorrow will begin to look for opportunities to launch an attack on the enemy, regardless of the outcome of success or failure, it has nothing to do with General Mengfu. β
After saying that, Li Ling turned his head and left.
"Hey, look back quietly and see if the old man catches up."
Don't look at Li Ling's chic, but in fact, he still hopes that Meng Fu can keep him, after all, in the final analysis, Meng Ling is the commander who holds the talisman, and he is just a county guard.
"General Meng didn't come, but the one named Wang Jian came with him."
"Aha?"
Hearing Huan Qi's answer, Li Ling was stunned for a moment, then stopped, turned around, and just saw Wang Jian walking quickly towards him.
"What are you doing here? Did the old man tell you to persuade me to go back? β
"Back to the master, it was Wang Jian himself who wanted to come."
"Nima! You came running on your own? Are you crazy? Do you know who you are? Do you think you're me or you're Huan Qi? You're eating Mengfu's meal now, and if you come here like this, aren't you afraid that he will you? β
scolded with his head and face, Li Ling never thought that Wang Jian would actually come out with his own ideas.
"Whether the master beats or scolds, Wang Jian just wants to follow the master! Wang Jian knew that the master was a superior person who could compare with Wu Anjun, and Wang Jian was also given by the master to have today! Today, Wang Jian has thought it through, and Wang Jian wants to follow his master all the time. Please accept Wang Jian's worship! β
Kneeling on his knees with a plop, this is not the era when the Manchu Tartars knelt when they saw people, and what Wang Jian represented by doing this is self-evident.
"Hurry up! You have to think about it carefully, I forcibly broke into Lu Buwei's mansion a few days ago, and today I angered Meng Fu again, and I am afraid that I will not have a few good days. β
"Wang Jian is willing!"
"In that case, then I won't stop you."
I wanted to let Wang Jian go back, but then Li Ling dispelled this idea.
Wang Jian will definitely not get Meng's trust anymore when he goes back, and Li Ling himself has to think about it for the future now.
The two great gods of the Qin State, both civil and military, have formed a bond with him, and it seems that it is absolutely impossible for him to be alone anymore, he must start to develop his power from this moment, and firmly gather all the people who can be used for himself around him.
Whether it is for the future game that may be played against LΓΌ Buwei and Meng Fu, or to help Yingzheng win the world, he must do this.
"Hey, these cavalrymen still can't do it."
From Xianyang to Yucheng to the present, Li Ling has never paid attention to the 10,000 cavalry from Longxi County, and now he wants to take them out, but Li Ling suddenly found that these cavalry are really a little embarrassing.
Not to mention that the morale is obviously very different from the two cavalry divisions in his hands, just looking at this equipment, Li Ling is also speechless.
What he is going to do next is a pure cavalry assault operation, using the cavalry's crushing advantage over the infantry and ultra-high mobility to constantly attack and attack the coalition battalion, forcing the coalition army to be tired of dealing with the weakness and exposing the weakness, and then grasping the weakness to win.
However, these cavalry in Longxi County did not have a three-piece set of war horses at all, let alone a saber, and their weapons only had ** and bronze swords, which could not meet Li Ling's combat needs at all.
The two cavalry divisions had lost more than half of them in the previous battle, and because they were all on the enemy's territory, the horses and weapons of the dead soldiers could not be brought back, and it was impossible to temporarily arm this cavalry from Longxi County at the moment.
"Forget it, let's go with me."
Let's take advantage of the night to get out of the city first, Li Ling believes that there must be a way to solve it, but for now, he must leave Yucheng first, otherwise he will wait until dawn to leave, and he will lose the opportunity after being discovered by the coalition forces.
The horses' hooves were wrapped in cloth, and 20,000 cavalry came out of the west gate of the city with light hands and feet through the night.
Just at the west gate, Meng Fu was staring at the departing troops, and no one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
