Volume 2: The Journey Begins, the Battle of Dongtu Chapter 137 The Left Army Dulin, the General Before the Battle

"Order the whole army, quickly clean up the battlefield, count the casualties, and appease the people, remember not to disturb the people, violators, military law will be engaged!"

"Whoa!"

The three gates of Huiwu City were broken at the same time, and the Yunlong army in the city was only five or six thousand people. And there are only more than 6,000 people in Qingcheng's department, and the rest are all under the leadership of Liu Suifeng, so they are not chasing after them.

In this battle, Qingcheng recaptured Huiwu overnight and annihilated more than 15,000 enemies, while the casualties of the Qi army were only two or three hundred, which was enough to make Liu Suifeng and Dingyuan Bo admire. Therefore, after entering the city, everyone still took Qingcheng as the leader and let him call the shots.

When Huiwu conquered, Utingwe killed Huiwu City Guard, so there was no general in charge here, and when Qingcheng and others entered the city, although it was night, the people still went out to celebrate, and welcomed them. Qingcheng saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but ask Liu Suifeng on the side: "Brother Liu, Huiwu will take it back, and the people will welcome each other, it seems that our garrison army is very loved." ”

Hearing this, Liu looked around with the wind, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "It's the opposite. As far as I know, Huiwu City is arrogant and arrogant, and treats the people harshly, but the emperor is far away, and the people's voice cannot reach the sky, and the people here should not have a good impression of us. ”

Hearing him say this, Qingcheng was stunned in puzzlement, and then thought about it for a while, thinking that Yunlong had taken Huiwu for many days, he seemed to have a slight understanding, and nodded silently.

"Hey, the border is a big thing, but the guards are unkind, and it is the people who suffer. If it weren't for the fact that Yunlong was only good at attacking and not being governed, we wouldn't have recaptured Huiwu so smoothly. Fortunately, Yunlong was expelled, and we waited for them to settle in, so they could return a piece of peace. ”

Qingcheng is worried about the country and the people, Liu Suifeng saw it in his eyes, was silent for a long time, patted him on the shoulder with a chuckle, and comforted: "When the prince arrives, he will have the opportunity to inform him, and immediately ask the court to appoint important officials to come here, I believe that there should be improvement, and you should not worry about it." In this battle, you have made great contributions, showing your might, and the true sect foolish brother has opened his eyes, haha. ”

Liu Suifeng praised Qingcheng, and the latter smiled bitterly and said, "Big brother, don't make fun of me, this little trick can't get into the eyes of big brother." If it weren't for the Utingwe straw bag, if I didn't know how to strategize, I wouldn't have annihilated the enemy so smoothly. ”

"Qingcheng, you are too humble. First disturbed the enemy to mess up, and then confused with 'fireworks', and then annihilated the enemy with thunder and fire, and even attacked the city with the help of Utingwe. Then again, when you asked the wind to collect the gunpowder, the foolish brother really didn't guess your plan. ”

Now, the truth is clear, Qingcheng has already made a plan to surprise and attack it unprepared from the beginning when he asked the wind to collect gunpowder. He first used 6,000 people as bait to constantly disturb the enemy and cause chaos, and even created the illusion that the Qi army was looking at the "fireworks" signal to evacuate. Subsequently, in the forest, he and the soldiers played a scene of two hearts of soldiers and generals, confusing Yunlong, causing Utingwe to lightly attack the enemy. Then he pretended to be invincible, which made Utingwe greedy, and then gradually walked into the trap he had set in advance.

The south and north gates of Huiwu are also laid out, and Qingcheng really broke the Yunlong with 6,000 people and 15,000 soldiers, and even took advantage of the situation to recapture Huiwu. This not only blocked the momentum of Yunlong's attack, but also gave them a head start, so that the Yunlong army, which had won consecutive battles, knew that there were still famous generals in Daqi, and poured cold water on them.

More importantly, Qingcheng preserved the strength of the Qi army, and only three hundred casualties were killed and wounded in this battle, which was a world of difference compared with Yunlong.

In Liu Suifeng's opinion, Qingcheng's battle was tough and beautiful, and it should be regarded as completing the task assigned by the king of northern Xinjiang, so he said with a smile: "Qingcheng, you recaptured Huiwu overnight, defeated the Yunlong army, and your reputation is far and wide, I believe that when the king of Xinjiang arrives, you should be very satisfied." ”

Liu Suifeng mentioned this, Qingcheng pondered for a moment, shook his head with a chuckle, and said: "Only recaptured one city, and did not severely damage Yunlong, if I really make such a mistake, the king of Xinjiang will definitely not allow it." ”

"Oh? Do you want to go on the offensive? ”

"That's right", Qingcheng admitted frankly, and continued: "If you can't collect three cities in a row, how can you make Yunlong fearful, let alone stabilize the west and fight back against the east map." What's more, the prince still has two days to arrive, and the battle situation is changing rapidly, if we really stick to it, who can guarantee that Yunlong will not offend me? Instead of fighting back passively, it is better to strike first! ”

Qingcheng's attitude was firm, Liu Suifeng listened, smiled meaningfully, and said: "In this way, it seems that you should also plan for the next battle." It's okay, the so-called one drum, then decline, three and exhaustion, while we take back the lost ground, the soldiers will be greatly boosted, and another city will be conquered, which is the icing on the cake. ”

"The most important thing is that seeing the situation in Huiwu City, the people in front of us are still in dire straits, and since we have come to Xitui, how can we not be prepared for danger in times of peace and rescue the people as soon as possible. However, after this battle, Yunlong must be vigilant, and it will be difficult to come up with surprises. Brother Liu, there will be tough battles in the future, and I want you to help the little brother more. ”

Liu Suifeng knew that Qingcheng was just polite, and believed that he would have a plan behind him, and after he looked around the city, he found that there seemed to be some people missing, and after thinking about it, he seemed to have an understanding, so at this moment, when he heard that Qingcheng was inviting help, he chuckled and said meaningfully: "Don't worry, with you as the boss, the foolish brother will definitely do his best to help." Anyway, it's time for the hard work to be a blast, haha. ”

Liu Suifeng mentioned the wind, Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, and while looking at him, he secretly thought: The eldest brother has seen through it, and he really lives up to the name of the Northwest Sword......

Overnight, Qingcheng successfully recaptured Huiwu with only 6,000 troops, and while Ding Yuanbo was surprised, he was worried that this person was too capable, and he would not be able to use his support in the future, so he would inevitably miss the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. Therefore, after careful consideration, he left 10,000 garrison troops to guard Ningyuan, and another 10,000 soldiers rushed to Huiwu, claiming to cooperate to resist the enemy and help Qingcheng.

At this point, there are already 50,000 Western Expeditionary troops stationed in Huiwu City, and there are generals such as Qingcheng and Liu Suifeng in charge, not to mention attacking, if you can't hold out, Yunlong will hardly have a chance to attack. But Qingcheng is eager to regain the lost territory, rescue the people, counterattack Dongtu, and then help the Warring States Duke get out of trouble and stabilize the peace of the West, so how can he stop? In addition, in this battle, the Qi army only had 6,000 dragoons to fight, and the army did not need to rest, and Ouyang Lan raised food and grass materials for him, I believe that soon, he will have to fight Yunlong again......

Sixty miles west of Huiwu City, is Xinghe City. Although the scale of Xinghe City is not as good as that of Huiwu, but the city guards make great efforts, govern well, and love the people like children, after many years, this place is much richer and more prosperous than Huiwu.

When Yunlong attacked, there were 30,000 people together with the Utinggui tribe. Fan Yun, the commander of the Xinghe city guard and garrison army, saw that the Yunlong army was pressing the border, although he had the intention to kill the enemy, but there were less than 8,000 defenders in the city, and the strength was very different. Inevitably adding casualties, Fan Yun failed to resist the enemy and when Yunlong broke the city, he led his troops to abandon his weapons, and hoped that the Yunlong Lord would treat the people well.

However, Fan Yun only gave up resistance and did not join Yunlong. However, his wishes were not adopted by Yunlong, and after they captured Xinghe, they wantonly amassed wealth, labored the people, and recruited men and women, which provoked the people's voice. And Fan Yun and other garrison troops were also escorted into the barracks and were devastated.

Fan Yun was secretly alive, just waiting for reinforcements to arrive, counterattack Yunlong, and avenge the dead people and soldiers. However, what he didn't expect was that after Xinghe was captured, Huiwu was also taken by Yunlong, and it was not until last night that Qingcheng was recaptured. Therefore, Fan Yun did not wait for support for a long time. However, the flame of revenge in his heart has not been extinguished, and he is still waiting for the time to come to deal a blow to Yunlong.

Let's talk about Yunlong's side. Last night, the Qi army counterattacked, Huiwu was lost, and U Tinggui and Yan Zhanlie had no choice but to lead the remnants of 3,000 troops to retreat to Xinghe City. And Qingcheng captured the city overnight, and the matter of breaking through the gate of Huiwu City with 6,000 people was also spread, which surprised the Yunlong army, which had won consecutive battles and had a great morale, and only thought that a famous general would lead a heavy army to help.

Houyunlong sent scouts to inquire about the reality of the martial arts, only to know that the Qi army had 50,000 reinforcements arrived, but there were only 10,000 Yunlong troops in Xinghe City at this time, if the Qi army attacked, where could they resist? Therefore, on the one hand, Yunlong is ready to fight and stick to Xinghe; On the other hand, I send a message to the rear and ask for support.

In the evening today, in the council hall of the castle guard's mansion, U Tinggui knelt on one knee in the middle, looking nervous and lowered, and Yan Zhanlie sat aside, his brows furrowed and his expression anxious. And there was another person sitting in the main seat in the council room, he looked at U Tingwe in front of him, his face was undisguised, and he was even more angry, and he was about to attack.

After a while, in order to break the oppressive atmosphere, Yan Zhanlie coughed lightly, and then said: "General, the matter has come to this point, it is still ......."

Before Yan Zhanlie finished speaking, the man stopped him with a raised palm, and the latter had no choice but to shut up. After a few moments, he stood up and walked slowly towards Utingwe, his eyes becoming colder.

This man is not tall, but he is strong, and he is slightly younger than Utingwe, and although he has a handsome beard, he looks much more handsome than Utingwe. However, looking at the posture in the field, his military rank should be slightly higher than that of Utinggui, and his temperament is more stable.

The left is respected in the middle of the Yunlong Dynasty, so the military rank of the left vanguard is half a head higher than that of the right vanguard. In the same way, the Black Wolf King, the Zuo Xian King, is also half a point more noble than the Red Wolf King, and he is actually a prince under Yunlong alone and above 10,000 people.

The left vanguard, Du Lin, is the upstart of the Nanpeng Army, and it is rumored that he is a member of the Silver Fox King, so he is used to being arrogant on weekdays, except for the boss, he doesn't take others in his eyes at all, especially Wu Tinggui, a brave and resourceless boss, who is even more disdainful.

And this time he was defeated and evacuated, in the eyes of Du Lin, it was an unforgivable crime, and naturally he would not be easily spared. However, he was very courteous to Yan Zhanlie, and it is not difficult to see that the latter's identity is indeed a little special.

At this moment, he saw U Tinggui kneeling in the hall, walked in front of him, snorted angrily, and said: "In just a few days, the army was defeated, and tens of thousands of my Yunlong warriors were killed, and the morale was sharply reduced, you still dare to come back?" ”

Hearing this, although U Tinggui was angry, he didn't dare to contradict this junior too much, so he had to explain: "Brother Dulin, this battle will be guilty, and there will be no quibbles. But the Qi army has generals from the west, the formation is cunning, and the use of troops is surprising, Lord Yan Zhan and I retreated to this place, just to report the battle situation, with my lesson, to remind you, so as not to ......"

"Fart!"

Without waiting for Utingwe to finish speaking, Du Lin stopped, and then scolded sharply: "You lost your troops and lost your territory first, and you escaped from the battle later, you are obviously arrogant and underestimate the enemy, and you also said that there are generals here, and the Qi army is cunning, this is not a quibble, what is it?" Hmph, do you dare to remind General Ben that General Ben can use it? You messed with the hearts of our army, punished several crimes, and since you have confessed your guilt, this general will send you on your way! ”

With that, Du Lin drew his saber and made a gesture to cut off Utingyu's head, which shocked the latter and Yan Zhanlie on the side......
