Chapter 405: Wang Bodang's fiasco
、、、、、、、、、、
At this moment, Yu Ming led more than 20,000 light cavalry to cover from both wings, turning the advantage into a victory. The Wei army, which was already unable to resist, was suddenly defeated.
So, the wolf-like cavalry of the Zhou army rushed into the camp that the Wei army was building, and chased them to the bank of this nameless river, and I don't know how many Wei soldiers fell into the river and drowned. Blood stained half of the river red.
Yu Ming looked at the tragic situation of the dead Wei soldiers on the battlefield, and was a little unbearable. He then ordered: "Those who tell us shout: Those who surrender will not be killed!" ”
He has a soft heart, and besides, he wants to be able to convince some people to surrender to him.
After Yuming announced that those who surrendered would be spared death, the cavalry of the Wei army, which had long been defeated, surrendered one after another, raised their hands and knelt on the ground. The fierce battle gradually subsided.
Luo Shixin was also impressed, from the heavy cavalry of the Zhou army to start sprinting, to Yuming's announcement that those who surrendered would not be killed, it only took more than an hour. The Wei army, which had 10,000 cavalry, and Wang Bodang, the general of the Wagang army, commanded it, still collapsed under the surprise attack.
"Send the order down, clean up the battlefield in two hours, and then escort the prisoners back to Jindi Pass! If there is no mistake, in a few days, Li Mi's main force will arrive! That's the real showdown! Yu Ming ordered.
He also sighed secretly at this time, he was still a little cautious, he knew that he could rush through the enemy's army with only 10,000 heavy cavalry, and he would have sent another 20,000 light cavalry to bury on the other side of the river, so that he could annihilate all the enemy and not let go of thousands.
"King Zhou, you are really the reincarnation of the god of war! We didn't expect that with only 10,000 cavalry and only two hours, we could easily deal with the 10,000 cavalry of the Wei army, while our own casualties were so slight, with less than 4,000 dead and wounded. "Song Jingang is now convinced by Yuming.
Only then did he understand that the youngest marshal of the Great Sui, together with Li Jing, was known as the Shuangbi of the Great Sui and the flower of famous generals, and he was indeed a military genius!
"Hehe, we got the timing right, and we raided them while they were setting up camp and preparing to set up camp, and we got a big victory!" Yu Ming smiled slightly: "When an army is encamped, it is often the time when the defense is the most lax. Moreover, thanks to our marksmen, the attack was at the right time, killing all the enemy's scouts, so that our army was able to kill the enemy by surprise...... Otherwise, after these scouts go back to report, Wang Bodang will be prepared, and even if we can win, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties. ”
At this moment, Cheng Yanjin scolded and led a bound enemy general to Yuming. Then he said loudly: "Report to King Zhou!" Although Wang Bodang's thief fled, his lieutenant Daniel Zhang was captured by Lao Cheng. You should give me a big credit this time, right? ”
He said cheekily. And the enemy general Daniel Zhang who was led by him held his chest high, as if it was Cheng Biting Jin who was the prisoner, not him.
Yu Ming looked at this Daniel Zhang, and saw that he was tall, strong, with a pair of tiger eyes, and his eyes revealed an unyielding and death-defying look.
He sighed, knowing that people like this would not normally surrender. But out of a glimmer of hope, he still asked in a deep voice: "General Zhang, I want to dominate the world in the Great Zhou, and there is a shortage of brave generals like the general, if you are willing to surrender, you can still hold the original official position." Continue to let you command the army, I wonder if you are willing? ”
"Phew! I am only loyal to the secret prince. In the future, the world will inevitably be Mi Gong sitting on the emperor's throne, you guys, if you know the times, surrender to Dawei as soon as possible, otherwise when Mi Gong returns to the division, you will be defeated! Daniel Zhang exclaimed.
Luo Shixin became angry when he heard this, pulled out his saber with a "Qiang" sound, and snorted coldly: "King Zhou, kill this guy with a knife!" He actually wanted to persuade us to surrender Li Mi, I really don't know what to say! It is of little use if the foolish keep it. Just use his head to lay the flag! ”
The other generals also chimed in, feeling that it was useless to keep an enemy general who refused to surrender, and it was better to kill them with a single sword.
But Yu Ming had other plans in his heart, and after he rolled his eyes, he smiled and said: "General Zhang is a loyal and righteous person, and this king also admires the heroes who are loyal and brave the most!" ”
After saying that, he cut the rope on Daniel Zhang's body with a knife, and then said in a straight tone: "General Zhang, I will let you go back this time!" But next time you get caught again, don't blame this king for being polite. If you don't surrender, you will be killed! ”
"What? You actually let me go? After freeing himself from the rope, Daniel Zhang also couldn't believe his eyes. He didn't expect Yuming to have such a large amount and let himself go.
"Yuming, aren't you afraid that I will fight you again after I go back?" He asked, looking stunned.
"This king never speaks!" After that, Yuming said to Zhang Zhongjian again: "Uncle Shi, give him a horse and let him go back!" ”
After Daniel Zhang got on the horse, he only felt that he was in a dream. But he finally picked up a life, and of course he would not be a hero anymore, and he would tell Yuming that he only wanted to die.
So, he whipped his horse, slapped his horse's buttocks a few times, and disappeared on the other side of the creek.
Although the generals didn't understand why Yuming suddenly became so benevolent, out of respect for the lord, they had to acquiesce to the release. Only Cheng Biting Jin was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and asked angrily: "His Royal Highness King Zhou, how can I let go of the enemy general that I Lao Cheng caught with great difficulty?" This person is very loyal to Li Mi, and I am afraid that he will oppose us in the future! ”
After Yuming heard this, he laughed and said, "Daniel Zhang probably has no chance to go against us." Do you think he will be alive after this trip? ”
"What?" All the generals were shocked, only Hu Sizheng seemed to have thought of something, showing a look of sudden realization. At this time, he said squarely: "King Zhou is reasonable! Li Mi has always been suspicious, and he is stubborn and self-serving. Jindi Pass was lost so easily, and Zu Junyan died in battle. Wang Bodang's reinforcements were defeated again, and after such a crushing defeat, with Li Mi's character, he would definitely find a scapegoat to vent his anger, and at the same time put the blame for the defeat on this person, so as to prove that it was not his poor command, but that someone was responsible for it! ”
Yu Ming listened to Hu Sizheng's words, and said with a look of approval on his face: "What Hu Junshi said is good! With Li Mi's stubborn character, he must not accept the fact that Jindi Pass was lost within a day and Wang Bodang's 10,000 elite cavalry collapsed in two hours. He would have thought that there was a traitor in his army who reported it to me, and that led to the fiasco. If he doesn't announce this to his subordinates, it means that he is not as good as me in commanding battles, or that the combat effectiveness of the Wei army is not as good as my Zhou army...... In that case, his reputation and the morale of the Wei army would plummet, which would be even more detrimental to the rest of the battle. ”
Therefore, Li Mi will inevitably find ways to shirk responsibility, and at the same time look for a scapegoat to put the blame for the defeat on this person! And Daniel Zhang was originally Zhai Rang's old subordinate, and Li Mi certainly did not trust him very much. And after this person was captured by our army, he was released unscathed. With Li Mi's suspicious personality, ten ** will suspect that Daniel Zhang betrayed the inside affairs of Wei Jun in exchange for freedom. Even if he wasn't entirely sure, in the current urgency, he had to do that! Daniel Zhang was wronged, anyway, for him, this person was an ordinary military general who could give up. Yuming gave everyone a careful analysis.
At this time, everyone suddenly realized, and secretly praised King Zhou in their hearts for his clever calculation, this is eating people without spitting out bones, harming others and making others think that he is benevolent and righteous.
They were also secretly glad that they were on King Zhou's side, otherwise they wouldn't know the reason for their death.
"That's it! Let's go back to Jindiguan and have a good rest! After two battles in a row, I believe everyone is tired! "Yu Ming naturally knows that the soldiers should not be fatigued in combat, which will seriously affect the combat effectiveness of the army.
The generals nodded one after another, and then pulled the horse's head and followed Yuming towards the Xiongguan in the east, and the horse's hooves rumbled. They knew that Li Mi would never be willing to fail, let alone swallow this big loss. After a few days of rest, the Zhou army will usher in an extremely cruel battle.
……
While Yuming was playing a triumphant song, Li Mi, who had just led the army and walked out of the Tiger Prison Pass, was shocked by the news of the loss of Jindi Pass.
He never expected that he thought that he could hold on to Jindi Pass for at least a month, let alone a month or a week, and he didn't even hold on to a day. The Zhou army launched an offensive from the morning and was conquered before it was dark. If it weren't for the fact that Zu Junyan had already died in battle, he almost wanted to put this guy Ling Chi to death.
As soon as Jindi Pass was lost, Xingyang, the temporary capital of the Great Wei, as well as the two Liyang and Luokou warehouses in the world's great granaries, were exposed to the direct threat of the Zhou army. If these strategic places were occupied by Yuming, then even if he had 10,000 soldiers, he would quickly fall apart.
"What about Wang Bodang? Didn't he let him rush to Jindiguan overnight? Calculating the schedule, if he had been in a hurry day and night, he should have arrived before the Zhou army launched an attack! I don't believe that there are 60,000 troops guarding Jindi Pass, and they will let Yuming break through this world-famous pass in one day! After Xu Shiji heard the news, he was also very angry. Because the defeated soldiers who fled back from Jindi Pass said that they held out until Zu Junyan died in battle, and when Jindi Pass fell, they did not see a single soldier come to the rescue.
Li Mi also had a gloomy face, Wang Bodang was his confidant, and he also explained the importance of rushing to help Jindiguan, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
At this moment, Shan Xiongxin hurriedly reported: "Report to the secret father, Bodang is back!" ”
"This guy actually has the face to come back!" Li Mi said with a blue face: "Quickly summon him into the account!" This king wants to see what this bastard is doing in the first place, and he is so grinding! ”
