Chapter 1197: The End of the Road
"By Your Majesty's order, kill the traitor Wang Shichong."
After saying that, the dragon and the long sword pointed directly at the city of the eldest son, where the city gate was wide open, and shouted: "The whole army is attacking." ”
"Kill ......"
A silver-armored young general took the lead and took the lead in the city gate, followed by the Ming army into the city.
Wang Shichong's death caused the morale of the Shangdang army to plummet, and there was no strong resistance at all, coupled with the fact that there were only thousands of defenders in the eldest son city, which allowed the Ming army to completely capture the eldest son city in a few hours.
"General Qiyu Longhe, our army easily occupied the city of the eldest son, the grain depot and equipment depot in the city are all intact, our bureau killed 500 enemies, captured 3,000, and suffered less than 100 casualties."
"Okay."
Long Ji's face couldn't help but show joy, and then he said in a deep voice: "Where is Long Yang?" ”
"The end will be."
The first silver-armored young general to enter the city just stood up, it was Long Yang, Long Ji's younger brother, and he actually had a face that was as similar as Yuwen Tuo and Li Xiaoyao.
"I now order you to lead 20,000 troops to attack Huguan, and you must capture Huguan within ten days."
"No." Long Yang hugged his fists and responded.
Looking at the back of his younger brother's departure, Long Ji couldn't help but think of his childhood, when his parents were still alive and his younger siblings were still young.
The Long family has four brothers and sisters, two sons and two daughters, the eldest Long Ji, the second brother Long Yang, the third sister Long Kui, and the younger sister Long Yue (Xiaolong Girl).
Although the Long Ji family is not rich, they are also happy, but God has not blessed his small family.
The bandits attacked the village where Long Ji was located, and Long Ji and his younger siblings hid in the closet to escape, and he watched his parents being hacked and killed by the bandits, but he didn't dare to make any noise.
After that, Long Ji was like Bai Qi, with his younger brothers and sisters, living a precarious life, until he joined the Taiping Sect to have a place to live.
After joining the Taiping Sect, Long Ji, along with other children of the same age, was taught martial arts by the Taiping Sect.
Long Ji's martial arts talent was extremely high, and he soon stood out among many competitors, and finally occupied a high position in the Taiping Sect after repeated training, and finally obtained the personal teaching of the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao.
At that time, Zhang Jiao had already stopped accepting apprentices, so although Long Ji and Zhang Jiao had the reality of master and apprentice, they were not master and apprentice.
Although Zhang Jiao passed on the merit to Long Ji, he did not allow Long He to pass it on to others, and in desperation, Long Ji could only send his two younger brothers and sisters out to apprentice, and the little sister was sent to the Tomb Sect by him, and was called the Little Dragon Girl by the master Lin Chaoying.
After many years, the younger brothers and sisters have also grown up, and Long Yang and Long Kui, who have returned from their art names, joined the Ming Dynasty, Long Yang became Long Ji's deputy general, and Long Kui became the female official next to Emperor Ming.
What Ling Long didn't expect was that the little sister Xiaolongnu would actually take refuge in Qin Hao, and even do such a dangerous thing as assassinating Wang Mang for Qin Hao.
To tell the truth, Long He actually hated Qin Hao extremely much in his heart, if it weren't for Qin Hao, the Yellow Turban would have already taken over the world, and his best friend Xiang Yu also died under Qin Hao's sword.
The assassination of Wang Mang made Xiaolongnu famous all over the world, and Long He also learned about Xiaolongnu's movements, and when he learned that when Qin Hao returned to Luoyang, the woman who followed him turned out to be his sister, and Long Ji's heart was more than five flavor magazines.
It was difficult for Long He to accept the fact that his sister might have become Qin Hao's woman, he thought that his sister who was ignorant of the world had been deceived by Qin Hao, but it had already happened, and he was remorseful and there was nothing he could do.
Long He didn't know if Qin Hao knew that Xiaolongnu was his sister, but he knew that Qin Hao would definitely be able to find out if he wanted to, and he hadn't received any contact from Qin Hao so far, which proved that Qin Hao would not use his sister to shake him, which also made Long He secretly relieved in his heart.
Emperor Ming ordered Long to kill Wang Shichong, occupy Shangdang, and seize Huguan, but he was actually quite reluctant in his heart, because Long He knew that dealing with Wang Shichong at this time was indirectly helping Qin Hao.
Long Ji didn't know what Emperor Ming, who had always been wise and wise, thought to give such an order, but since the order had been given, he didn't understand and had to obey the order, maybe there was a deeper meaning in it.
After taking the city of the eldest son, the Long Army not only sent Long Yang to lead 20,000 troops to attack Huguan, but he also led the army to attack other cities of the party.
Ten days later, Longyang successfully occupied Huguan, and Longhe quickly captured the five cities of Hun, Gaodu, Yang'a, Shai, and Luxian, and seven of the thirteen counties of Shangdang were completely captured by the Ming army.
At this time, Wang Mang, who was arranging a defensive line on the front line, was stunned after learning that Long Ji not only attacked Shangdang, but also killed Wang Shichong.
Wang Mang really couldn't figure it out, what was Emperor Ming thinking in his head, it was clear that Qin Hao's threat was the biggest now, and the two of them who were weak should report to the group to keep warm in order to survive, but Emperor Ming chose to stab him in the back at this time, where is this something that a long-term traverser can do.
Wang Mang never thought that the Qin army had not yet attacked, but the ally he found was the first to defect to the revolution, and this was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Southern Alliance.
Wang Mang was bent on resisting the Qin army on the frontal battlefield, and he didn't expect that Shangdang, as the rear, would be lost, and Wang Mang stored nearly eighty percent of the grain and grass he took from Sizhou in Shangdang.
Now that the Ming army has attacked and occupied most of the Shangdang, including the eldest son, it means that the Southern Coalition Army has lost eighty percent of its grain and grass before the war, so how will the next battle be fought?
What's even more deadly is that the Qin army is about to fight, and the Ming army is in chaos in the rear, and the Southern Coalition Army is being attacked from both sides, and it is obvious that it has fallen into a dead end.
Wang Mang didn't dare to make this news public, because once it was made public, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it was impossible to keep it hidden, so he concealed it from the low-level soldiers, and made it public to the high-level generals and princes.
After it was made public, Wang Mang was naturally reprimanded by all the princes, after all, he swore that the next year's army would definitely help them fight against the Qin army, but the Ming army not only betrayed the covenant but also stabbed you behind the back.
After Wang Mang tried his best to appease the princes, he quickly made a way to deal with it.
"The reason why Emperor Ming betrayed the covenant is that Qin Hao promised to give her greater benefits, but no matter why the Ming army rebelled, our army must recapture Shangdang, otherwise this battle will not be able to go on at all."
Wang Mang's eyes fell on Chen Qingzhi's body, and he said in a deep voice: "Chen Qingzhi is now ordered to be the main general, and Guo Tai is the deputy general, leading 40,000 troops back to the party, and must take back the eldest son and Huguan." If you can't get it back...... Just hold the city, and never let the dragon attack the rear of our army. ”
