Chapter 627: Fight and Retreat

Li Qi looked at Cheng Wujie and asked, "Li ...... No, did Mr. Xuanyuan tell you anything before leaving? ”

Cheng Wujie said: "No, I asked Mr. when he would come again, and he said that the taste of the golden threadfish in Xiaoxian Lake is just like that, so he will not come again." ”

He sighed: "I ate for three days in a row, and I was very happy to eat every meal, but when I left, I said that it tasted like that." ”

Li Qi smiled.

Mr. Li ate for three days in a row, making himself feel bored, and when he had eaten enough, he never wanted to eat again, so naturally he would not come again in the future.

From the time Li Qi has his own thoughts and opinions to the present, Mr. Li is the only person he has ever met who can survive.

Mr. Li's Gou is even full of compulsion.

This kind of compulsion makes people feel a little incomprehensible, but after understanding it for a few minutes, they will feel distressed.

For example, the fish in this little fairy lake.

He may have also heard that this golden thread fish is delicious and is the best delicacy in the world, so he wanted to come.

For a person like Mr. Li, there are not many things in this world that can attract him.

And eating is definitely one of the things that can also attract Mr. Li.

That's how he forced himself to hold on.

He likes delicious food and wants to eat, so he came.

In the way of eating for three days in a row, I ate enough at once, and even ate nausea, and I will never come back again.

Why not come?

Because people like Mr. Li probably feel that the outside world is full of dangers.

This is the same reason as when he hides in the Shulin Building of the Four Pages Academy, he can hide as much as he can.

Li Qi thought about people like Mr. Li, and he didn't know that he would encounter too many dangerous things, so he would be so afraid of it.

At the end of the day, Mr. Li guessed that Mr. Li always felt that someone was trying to harm him.

And with Mr. Li's ability, he has to hide in Tibet all day long, how strong will this person who wants to harm him be?

It was at this moment that Li Qi felt a sense of pride in his heart.

His achievements today actually have a lot to do with Mr. Li, so he thought, when I am invincible in the world, I will protect Mr. Li.

So he took Mr. Li to his side, guarded him, and saw who could harm him.

Cheng Wujie saw that King Ning was in a daze, and after waiting for a while, he asked, "His Royal Highness King Ning, are we going back to Jizhou now?" ”

Li Qi shook his head: "Don't go back to Jizhou, continue to the northwest." ”

He smiled and said, "Go to war!" ”

Cheng Wujie's eyes lit up when he heard these three words, and he immediately became excited.

"Take me, Your Highness take me to war."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the brothers behind him and shouted, "His Royal Highness King Ning said that he would take us to war!" ”

The twenty or thirty brothers stood up and looked blankly at him.

Soon, this confusion turned into doubt, unease, and even resistance.

"Big brother...... We don't want to go to war. ”

One of the men walked up to Cheng Wujie and said apologetically: "If you like to play, we will play with you, it doesn't matter if everyone laughs at us that we are a hospitable army, because there is no malice in the jokes, and everyone knows that we are not thieves." ”

"But big brother, going to the battlefield is not a joke, it will kill people...... Your ancestors were generals, and our ancestors were all under your ancestors, so ......"

Cheng Wujie's face changed, and he wanted to lose his temper, but he was soon relieved.

He smiled and said: "It's okay, you stay at home and live a good life, I'm not by your side, you can also be down-to-earth, for more than a year, you have been messing around with me, and it is also hard." ”

"Big brother, I'll go with you."

Xiaoliu smiled: "I'm an orphan, I don't have anything to worry about at home." ”

"Big brother, I'll go too."

Xiao Jiu said: "I am the same as Xiao Liu, we have been fatherless and motherless since we were children, it is the eldest brother who takes care of us, and we are where you are." ”

Li Qi asked Cheng Wujie and said, "Before you promise me, you should also go home to discuss it......

Xiao Liu looked at Li Qi: "His Royal Highness King Ning, you don't know, my eldest brother is the only one in his family......"

Li Qi was stunned.

He looked at Cheng Wujie, but before he could speak, Cheng Wujie smiled bitterly: "What's this...... In such a world, Your Highness, you can walk into a village and see how many orphans, widows, and lonely old people there are......"

Li Qi nodded and said, "I know." ”

Yu Jiuling sighed, looked at Cheng Wujie and said, "King Ning is also an orphan, so am I, and Xiao Zhang Zhenren is also ......"

He was shocked in his heart.

He had never thought about this problem, and at this time, Yu Jiuling realized that among the four people, he was the only one who was not an orphan.

"What kind of bullshit is this!"

Yu Jiuling took a sip.

He almost gritted his teeth and spoke.

"You still know who your parents are and where your home is, King Ning doesn't know who your parents are, and Xiao Zhang Zhenren doesn't know who your parents are."

Yu Jiuling scolded: "Twenty years from here, rebellion, black martial arts south, famine...... Da Chu's national fortunes can't fucking cover the Central Plains. ”

Cheng Wujie was taken aback: "Don't talk nonsense, if you are known by the imperial court, you will lose your head......"

After finishing speaking, he reacted, in Jizhou, isn't King Ning the biggest one.

He was embarrassed again.

Li Qi slowly exhaled a breath and said: "There is nothing terrible about orphans, what is terrible is that there will be more people like us in the future, some things are actually more terrible to think about, we are orphans and we live, either because of good luck or because of some ability, but what about those orphans who are unlucky and have no ability?" ”

He looked at Cheng Wujie and said: "We may not be able to make the world have no orphans, no one can do it, but we will do our best to make the world less unfortunate." ”

"Good!"

Cheng Wujie said loudly: "Just follow King Ning, just for the sake of the children in the future, they will have their parents by their side!" ”

"It's done!"

Xiao Liu and Xiao Jiu also waved their arms.

Cheng Wujie and they talked about it, the various disasters and wars encountered in this Dongge County, the more they talked about it, the more uncomfortable it became.

"Let's catch a fish first."

The pressure of the stage may feel that this atmosphere is really a bit depressing, so he diverts the topic.

He looked at the place where Xiao Liu and Xiao Jiu were fishing before: "Your fishing rods are gone." ”

End of March.

Anyang.

The battle of Luo's army forcibly crossing the Nanping River was tragic but smooth.

In the battle of crossing the river, at least nearly 20,000 people died on the Nanping River, and there were so many corpses that it almost covered the surface of the river.

Rushing downstream along the river, corpses can be seen everywhere.

The whole river was in shambles, with broken boats, soaked white corpses, and fish gnawing on corpses.

For a whole day, Luo's army attacked the south bank of the Nanping River.

On the position on the south bank, Prince Wu's army held on for another night and a half days.

It wasn't until noon the next day that I retreated because the pressure was too great.

It's okay when you don't retreat, but this retreat exposes your back to Luo Jiajun.

Because this battle of crossing the river was fought too hard by Prince Wu's team, and there were too many casualties, the Luo family army carried a fierce and murderous aura.

Chasing after Prince Wu's team, he chased out dozens of miles in one go.

Prince Wu's army re-established the defensive line forty miles from the Nanping River, where a large number of fortifications had already been dug up.

Countless trenches, countless pits, countless traps.

In this way, it would be difficult for the most elite cavalry under Luo Jing's command to play a role.

The infantry charged, and it was another tragic battle.

The battle lasted for four days, and the Luo family army finally broke through the defense line after suffering 26,700 casualties.

Prince Wu's troops retreated again and retreated to the county seat more than fifty miles away.

Luo Jing felt that the morale of his team was high at this time, although the loss of troops in these two fierce battles was more than 50,000

, but also broke through Prince Wu's two lines of defense.

He calculated that Prince Wu's troops were insufficient, and as long as he attacked the county again, Prince Wu's troops would be reduced by more than half, and perhaps even more than two-thirds.

Although it was tragic, Ke Luo Jing firmly believed that as long as he won another battle, Prince Wu would completely lose his ability to resist.

So Luo Jing ordered a storming of the county seat.

Unexpectedly, this little-known small county town has become a huge tomb.

Every day is besieging the city, and every day is carried down by Prince Wu's team.

Day 2, Day 3, Day 4......

As the days passed, the high morale of the Luo family army was also consumed in the killing day by day.

Ten days later, the Luo family army still did not break through this small county town that should not have been a stumbling block.

From the beginning of the battle to the present, in half a month, the total number of troops lost by the Luo family army has been 70,000 or 80,000.

With this level of casualties, if you don't see the battlefield with your own eyes, you can't imagine what kind of scene it is.

Luo Jing continued to cheer up his subordinates, telling his subordinates that Prince Wu was already running out of food, and he couldn't hold on for long.

However, for another ten days, no progress was made.

Luo Jing personally led the army to storm many times, but it was still difficult to survive.

At this time, twenty days have passed since the army of Luo Jing surrounded this county seat, and it stands to reason that Prince Wu's army should have run out of food a long time ago.

But Prince Wu stubbornly survived, and it seemed that he could hold on.

Luo Jing immediately changed his strategy and ordered all the troops to surround him to the death, and no longer storm onslaught, intending to use this method to exhaust the food and grass of Prince Wu's army.

In the past month, every inch of soil here may have been watered with blood.

Anyang City is about 100 miles to the north.

Tang Pidi led the forces of the two armies here, and he could not go further south, and if he went further south, he would be misunderstood.

At this time, the army of Luo Jing was on the south side of the Nanping River, if he led the Ning army to Anyang, the Luo family army left behind in Anyang City would immediately feel that he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to seize Anyang.

Luo Jing may not believe it, but the people left behind in Anyang City will definitely believe it.

Therefore, Tang Pi's understanding of the battle situation is also the reward of the scout.

"General."

The scouts who returned from the south bank of the Yangtze River bowed down after seeing Tang Pi's enemy: "General, the troops of Luo Jing have besieged Prince Wu for twenty days, and they still haven't been able to break through Prince Wu's defense. ”

"Twenty days."

Don's brow furrowed.

He walked back and forth in the tent, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

Prince Wu's style of play is obviously consuming the strength of Luo Jing.

This old man, known as the god of war of Da Chu, has definitely reached the point of perfection in the use of tactics.

If he stubbornly defended the Nanping River, Luo Jing would never have reached the south bank of the Yangtze River in a day or two.

However, Prince Wu did not defend to the death, but immediately ordered a retreat after killing and wounding a large number of Luo family's troops.

If he defends too much, Luo Jing will have no intention of continuing south because of the setbacks.

Hurt but not defeated, Prince Wu successfully led General Luo to the south bank of the Yangtze River.

That's right, it wasn't Luo Jiajun who relied on his own ability to force the past, but Prince Wu deliberately let people go.

The second line of defense was played in the same way, in the same way as the defensive battle at Nanpingjiang.

is still fighting the pain and not fighting, it is to give Luo Jing hope, so that Luo Jing feels that he will be able to win the battle completely next time.

"Luo Jing may have to suffer."

Tang Pidi returned to his desk, picked up a pen and wrote a letter and handed it to the scout: "Send it to the south bank of the Yangtze River as quickly as possible, and hand it over to Luo Jing by hand." ”

The scout answered, and turned to leave.

Tang Pidi's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in his heart that if Luo Jing was not so conceited, if he could join forces with his two armies, maybe this battle would still be fought.

But in this situation, as long as his team moves further south, the Luo family army that stayed in Anyang will inevitably make a move.

When the fight really started, it was the lives of his own family members who were hurt.
