Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Ambition Defeated by the Tiger Shuai
At the mention of Zhou Dunyi, the senator's expression became panicked again for a moment, and the fear in his eyes became more and more obvious.
"For the first time in the coalition army, I got news from Nanli that the marshal of Nanli had changed, and the new marshal was less than twenty years old, and he was a new prince of the Nanli royal family, and the coalition army collected all the personal information of Zhou Wangye, and did not say what battles Zhou Wangye had fought, and the intelligence only recorded that Zhou Wangye had joined the army before, but he did some paperwork, and he never went to the frontal battlefield at all."
The senator's breath became short, and after Shen Baoxu put some internal force into him, he barely controlled his breath and continued
"The people of the coalition army thought that Nanli was sick and urgently seeking medical treatment this time, and sent a hairy boy to lead the Nanli army, and we also thought so at that time, because the prince of Zhou at that time was basically about the same age as our group, and I even thought that Nanli was about to die this time, and I was ready to send a letter back to Dongxun to tell His Majesty to let him see if I could let Dongxun also get a share of the corpse that Nanli was about to fall."
The senator swallowed and continued
"But my letter has not been sent out, the coalition forces on the frontal battlefield have been defeated one after another for some reason, although they are all small losses in some local battles, and the military strength of the coalition army is not a big problem, but these made the old marshal who commanded the coalition army at that time angry, the old marshal felt that he had lost face this time, so he desperately pressed all the hole cards to attack the defense line of the south, but Zhou Wangye seemed to have known that the coalition army was going to launch a general offensive, and he did not wait for the coalition army to attack, Nanli's army has begun to retreat step by step, and on the way to retreat, it is still constantly gathering people from all over the country, burning all the grain and grass that can't be taken away, causing the coalition army's battle line to be stretched longer and longer, and the supply line is often attacked by sneak attacks, and the situation of the coalition army has become a little dangerous since that time, but when the million coalition army marched to several mountains less than 100 miles away from the capital Jinling City in the south, they unexpectedly found that the Nanli army had been waiting on the mountain for a long time. The old commander ordered the army to be divided into five armies, surrounded the mountains, and ordered the water source of the mountains to be cut off. ”
Shen Baoxu frowned, and couldn't help but interrupt
"There is nothing wrong with that old marshal's move, even if it was replaced by me at that time, in the face of that situation, he would only give this kind of order, then the Nanli army can't all be composed of monks, cut off the water source for a few days, no matter how many troops he has, he will definitely be self-defeating, but why did the old marshal come up with such a nirvana, but the result was that the king of Nanli Zhou led the army to drive the alliance of all countries out of the territory of Nanli with very few losses?"
Even if the senator was interrupted by Shen Baoxu, he didn't feel angry, but when he heard Shen Baoxu say this, he also smiled and nodded, and continued
"That's right, the military master, you are right, in that situation, anyone who looks at Nanli is bound to lose, but what happened later has made the lower officials not understand until now, the two armies behind are deadlocked on those high mountains, no matter how the soldiers of our allied forces provoke and insult the soldiers of Nanli, then the soldiers of Nanli do not respond, in fact, this is not a big problem, but the most important thing is that later, the supply lines of the allied forces of all countries are becoming more and more difficult, I originally thought that in this case, the non-commissioned officers of our coalition army were almost hungry, and the Nanli army trapped on the high mountain should have already run off water and food and the army began to riot, but the result was that the Nanli army still had no response, and the soldiers patrolling outside the barracks were still in that energetic state. “
"Could it be that Nan Nan has the help of immortals from the army?"
Shen Baoxu couldn't help but ask this sentence.
This is impossible at all, being besieged on a high mountain, with no water source, and no food to eat for long, any ordinary soldier should have been unable to hold the weapon a long time ago, so how could the soldier of Nanli be the same as usual?
Unless, the 200,000 soldiers in Nanli are all monks, it is absolutely impossible for them to hold out for such a long time.
But as soon as this idea came to mind, Shen Baoxu directly dispelled it.
How is this possible?
The soldiers of a country, even with the strength of the Xikun Kingdom at that time, it is basically very rare to find out that twenty or thirty thousand soldiers are all composed of monks, let alone Nanli?
If Nanli had an army of 200,000 monks, then the countries of the continent would simply stop playing, and directly open the city gates and wait for Nanli to be captured, and the monarchs of the countries would have already submitted a letter of surrender to Emperor Li, how could this be fought? That's not an army that can exist on earth at all.
The senator smiled awkwardly and continued
"Yes, at that time, the lower officials thought that the Nanli country was a country favored by the gods, otherwise how could they hold on for so long and still be like a normal person? And then the ending came out, in the early morning of one day, Zhou Wang Ye personally led the army, all together into the coalition camp, the coalition soldiers had long lost their combat effectiveness, and naturally became the fish on the board, and the old handsome, as if he understood something at that moment, laughed and committed suicide with a knife, and the outcome was that the millions of coalition troops of all countries were defeated. In that battlefield, the number of beheadings alone was more than 100,000, and the captured soldiers were even more prosperous here, in short, after the end of the final battle, the vitality of the allied forces of all countries was greatly damaged, and the national strength basically regressed several eras, and was forced to sign a truce agreement with Nanli and pay a large amount of war reparations, and the 100-person staff group that I Dongxun originally invested in that battle, in the end, returned to Dongxun alive, there were less than five people, and Xia Guan was one of those five people. ”
Speaking of this, the senator seemed to laugh miserably with emotion, and said with some complaint in his tone
And His Majesty also saw the true strength of Nanli, and personally stifled the restless belligerence in the country at that time, and dragged it until this time, because Nanli Sword Saint Feng was seriously injured, and His Majesty was in a coma, and the belligerent emotions of those powerful people in the country could not be suppressed, so this was not a rush to send troops, heh, I didn't expect that the first foreign war in my Dongxun was facing the tiger marshal of Zhou Wangye, no, Zhou Wangye is not only a tiger handsome, he is more like Chiyou, more like a ghost in the underworld, In short, with the appearance of that one, the lower officer no longer has any thoughts about the outcome of this battle, military master, you are still young, if you lose this battle, you will lose, after all, you will encounter an opponent of that level. ”
Shen Baoxu waved his big hand, the cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, his handsome face looked particularly handsome in the sunlight at the moment, and he also suppressed the impetuousness in his heart at this time, and said heartily
"Ha, Suddenly Senator, you still have a little confidence in the kid, that Nanli Zhou Wang's prestige is indeed true, boy, when I learned that the opponent this time was this big man, I was also a little afraid, but boy, I was quickly carried away by the excitement, boy, I really like to fight with this kind of big man, Suddenly Senator, you, do you understand what I mean?"
Suddenly, the senator's face was stunned, and then he quickly understood the meaning of Shen Baoxu's words, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his tone was full of disbelief and asked
"You, Commander? Do you still want to fight with the prince of Zhou after this? ”
Shen Baoxu smiled evilly, turned around and patted the senator's shoulder with his palm, and said loudly
"Boy, I, but when I was young and vigorous, the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and I don't think of myself as a calf, boy, I'm a tiger, the opponent is just a tiger that has dominated the mountains and forests for a long time, and the tiger may be old now, and it is time to change people to dominate the mountains and forests."
When the words fell, Shen Baoxu looked up to the sky and laughed and turned on his horse, drove the horse under his crotch, and ran into the distance with a smoke.
Only the senator who was still shocked by Shen Baoxu's confident words was left in the same place, and he didn't know what to do.
The senator looked at the back of the black horse, and after a moment of silence, he muttered to himself
"Young, vigorous? Back then, we should have behaved like the military master now, heh. ”
Yes, at that time, they were young heroes selected from the 100,000 forbidden troops of Dongxun, which one of them was not a talent that the Dongxun military would vigorously cultivate in the future, but the result?
More than half of the young and vigorous children were buried in that earth-shattering battle, but he, a child who was favored by God, was able to pick up a life and run back.
At that time, the Dongxun military was very excited when they knew that they were still alive, originally they thought that the hundred young people who would become the mainstay of the Dongxun military in the future all died in Nanli, but the unexpected joy was that a few of their own people ran back, and it was not that all the resources were tilted to a few of their guys.
However, these guys have already been frightened by the prince of Zhou, even if it is himself, until now, he still has achieved nothing, no matter how many resources the Dongxun military has tilted towards him over the years, but he has not made the slightest progress, heh, that invincible self, I am afraid that he has already died in Nanli, and he who is still alive now is just a walking corpse.
However, Shen Baoxu's words inspired the ambition in his heart that had been sealed for a long time.
scold
The official position of a senator is really a little bit not in line with him, and the idea of taking merit from the prince of Zhou is indeed good, military master, you really have a taste for me.
