Chapter 22 The Tactic of Deferring the Army

gorge

Li Guo had already ordered the army to retreat to the mouth of the canyon and re-array, and the other side of the retreat was also slowly rearing the whole team.

"Hey! What a great opportunity? Now I can only watch them go back! Hao Shaoqi said unwillingly.

Li Yan frowned and didn't speak, turned his head to look at Li Guo, only to see Li Guo sitting on the marching pony and silent, his face darkened, like a canopy of impending heavy rain.

After a while, Li Guo opened his mouth and said: "It's useless to talk about it at this point, so if you can't do it, you will prepare to evacuate." ”

Li Yan stepped forward and asked, "What about the young general?" ”

Li Guo raised his head violently, and glared: "Luo Cao Cao grabbed everything, we don't need it, it's a big deal to return all the heavy ones, and if you can't have these returns, you can always get back double happiness." ”

After listening to it, Li Yan also felt that it was a method, firstly, they were already planning to retreat, and they could reduce the burden if they returned the heavy ones, and secondly, what they originally wanted was food, and the population was not important.

"I'm going to talk to them later?" Li Yan suggested.

"No need, you organize a retreat, I'll talk about it, I want to see which force this Great Qin is!" Li Guoyi gritted his teeth and said.

Li Yan was naturally happy like this, but on the surface he was still very concerned and said: "Okay, the general pays attention to safety and waving the flag to protect the general." ”

Hao Shaoqi happily agreed: "Okay, military advisor, you can rest assured!" ”

Li Yan suggested again: "General, I suspect that the Qin army should still have that kind of firearms, so try not to get too close to them." ”

Li Guo nodded and didn't speak, he just wanted to see the guy who had played him several times as soon as possible, and it was best to kill him with his own hands!

Li Yan was still a little uncalm when he saw Li Guo's state, but it was inconvenient for him to say more, so he immediately hugged his fists and went down to Zhang Luo to evacuate.

And Li Guo and the others sat in the canyon, waiting for the other side to call them to meet, and now they have no initiative...

On the other side, the embarrassed Mali hurriedly got off the horse, and as a result, the whole person was swinging, and the young man next to him was worried.

At this time, Mark came over on horseback, and there were dozens of men with drums next to him, as well as a young man in a white robe, and a big man with an iron tower carrying a sack.

When Mark saw his father, he hurriedly stepped forward, supported him and asked with concern, "Father, are you okay?" ”

Mali watched his son burst into tears, and he almost died this time.

Mali's fighting skills are not very good, but he is still very good at dealing with people, so he didn't talk to his son much, but asked directly: "Son, father is fine, who are these?" ”

Only then did Mark remember that he had forgotten his business, and immediately introduced: "This is General Wang Li of Great Qin, this is Zang Shuo Warrior, these are the new military cavalry of Great Qin, and they are the Praetorian Guards of the Son of Heaven......"

Mali was also a little surprised when he heard it, how could He De of the Hui Department get the support of the Forbidden Army of the Son of Heaven, this Great Qin also attached too much importance to them, right? But they have sent forbidden troops, why are they just like this?

Just when Mari was sincerely frightened and confused and didn't know how to speak, Wang Li hugged his fists and said: "Finger... Swing it all right? ”

Wang Lidu opened his mouth and Mali couldn't stiffen, and hurriedly saluted and responded: "Thanks to Your Majesty and the general's concern, the old minister is safe, thank Your Majesty for sending the general and all the strong men to help." ”

Wang Li is also a child of a sophisticated family who has been invading people for many years, so he naturally heard that there was something in the Mali dialect, didn't helping the battle mean that there were few of them?

Although it was a friendly army, Wang Li could not fall into the prestige of Great Qin, and immediately spoke:

"The Son of Heaven ordered me to come and suppress the bandits, and General Ben will go to negotiate with the Liukou and command the envoys to go together."

Mali was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and thought: What big words do you say at a young age, more than 2,000 people can't beat others, and dozens of you can negotiate? Still bandits?

However, Mali also knew that after all, it was the other party who saved himself and Huibu, and now it was under the banner of the Son of Heaven, so it was not easy to stop it, so he didn't say much.

Then Wang Li raised his hand, and Zang Shuo next to him put the sack containing Li Laiheng on the ground and untied his mouth again.

Wang Lichao Zang Shuo instructed: "Wake him up." ”

Zang Shuo first clenched his fists, then took out a sheepskin kettle and poured it directly on Li Laiheng's head.

Don't look at Wang Li's shouting just now that he had arrested Li Laiheng, in fact, he didn't know Li Laiheng at all, but Qin Zheng had introduced him to several leaders of the army before he came, so as to facilitate his actions.

"Ahem......" Li Laiheng finally came to his senses.

Wang Li asked expressionlessly: "But the nephew of King Chuang, Li Guoyi's son - Li Laiheng?" ”

After all, Li Laiheng is a teenager, even if he is reduced to a prisoner, he has no intention of giving in, otherwise he would not have resisted the Qing Dynasty for decades in history.

In between, he stared at him and shouted: "Master, I am Li Laiheng, if you want to kill or chop as you like, scream and hurt Master is your son!" ”

Where have the children of Wang Li's family heard such ruthless lines, and they couldn't help but laugh: "You little thief is very interesting, yes, you are a man." ”

"Humph!" Li Laiheng snorted angrily.

Wang Li continued to ask: "So presumably, the main general is either Li Guo or Li Zicheng, I don't know why King Chuang entered my Great Qin this time?" How do you plan to give an explanation to Your Majesty for the dead Qin people and the Hui Ministry? ”

Wang Li didn't know that Li Laiheng and Chuang Jun were actually coming for the first time, but they thought that Cao Jun was also Li Zicheng's subordinate, so he asked for the guilt.

Li Laiheng said directly: "What is there to ask, the Zhu family has no way, and the people can't eat enough, so they naturally become rogues." If you are all cowards, I will rob you nobles and local tyrants and inferior gentry, and when you are done, give the master a happy place! ”

Wang Li was naturally not satisfied with such an answer, but Li Laiheng's soft and hard attitude was really difficult for him to do, and then he waved his hand and asked people to seal the sack back.

"It seems that I can only find the thief directly, Commander Ma, please come forward with me." Wang Li made a gesture of please, and Mali immediately followed.

At this time, dozens of famous Qin soldiers stepped forward one after another, half of them prepared drums, and the other half took out a large parchment roll and drove in front of the drummer.

Immediately after that, several drummers began to play, and Chuang Jun and Hui Bu became nervous when they heard this, and began to enter the combat post, as if the drummer was their conductor.

Wang Li waved his hand, all the drummers stopped, and Zang Shuo also took a big sheepskin tube and put it in front of Wang Li.

Wang Li shouted loudly at the tube: "Is it King Chuang or Li Guo on the other side?" This is Wang Li, the general of Great Qin, please come forward to negotiate. ”

Li Guo, who had been silent for a long time, also stood up from the horse and shouted a few steps forward: "A certain family is Li Guo, don't talk nonsense, open conditions." ”

Wang Li didn't expect the other side to be so direct, so he turned to Mali and asked, "Are there any conditions?" ”

Mali naturally wants to say that they should leave their things and people behind, and then hand over the murderer, but this is obviously not a negotiable condition, you must know that the Hui have been defeated...

So Mali could only think about it: "At least we must return all the Hui people." ”

Wang Li nodded after hearing this, and continued to shout: "General Ben wants you: hand over all the troops and supplies, and then hand over the rogues who have killed people, and surrender on the spot." In the end, he begged and sent Li Chuang's son to Chang'an as a hostage! ”

Wang Liyi was stunned when he finished speaking, this didn't seem to be his request, so why should he ask him? Doesn't such a request force the rogues to work hard?

Before Mali could ask, Li Guo was already angry, after all, this condition was no different from letting him commit suicide directly.

Li Guo roared angrily: "Qin thief, deceive people too much!" ”

In fact, what Li Guo was worried about was nothing more than Li Laiheng, and he was afraid that the loss would be too great, otherwise he would return to the level of fighting, and he really didn't care about it.

Now Wang Li's attitude is inevitable, but fortunately, both sides have hostages and are not afraid of the other party's "tearing up the ticket".

"Damn! What about the military advisor, how are the preparations for the back? If you can't do it, you can take back all the manpower, and if we win the battle, it's not too late for us to go, I still don't believe that a few more Qin troops will be able to go to heaven when they return to the ministry? Li Guo was furious.

However, just when Li Guo was shouting to attack, Li Yan hurried over and whispered: "Oh no, the Qin army's activities have been detected at the exit of the valley!" ”

Li Guo was shocked, it turned out that Wang Li didn't want to negotiate at all, this was just a delaying tactic, he had been waiting for the Qin army behind him!

"Isn't this the same as Luo Cao Cao?" Li Guo's face turned pale and he muttered to himself.
