Volume 1: Young Ambition, Showing Strength Chapter 10 The decisive battle of Haihou, Qingcheng is a teacher
"Report! Linhai City 600 miles to expedite battle report! ”
In the Wanli army, in the commander's account, King Guhong sat in the center, discussing with Xu Lin and other generals about Haichuan's bandits. At this time, the front-line battle report suddenly arrived, and it should be that Linhai City was asking for help again.
"Lord Wang, Linhai City's six hundred miles of urgent battle report, please start it in person!"
Xu Lin stepped forward to take the battle report in his hand, and arranged for someone to take him down to rest, frowned and walked towards King Guhong, and said puzzledly: "This Zhenhai Marquis, this is the second time in the past month that he has asked for help, what is going on with him, a second-class martial marquis, he really doesn't care about the face of the prince at all." ”
It has been more than a month since the Wanli military exercise, and the pioneer battalion is still tempering new recruits, and in this short period of one month, Zhenhai Hou has asked King Guhong for help twice, this kind of behavior is absolutely intolerable in the eyes of the arrogant King Guhong. After all, King Guhong had personally suppressed the bandit Haichuan and had a great reputation, so he knew the military strength of this small island country, so he couldn't figure out how a second-class martial marquis with an army of 30,000 under his command was so invincible?
Listening to Xu Lin's words, King Guhong snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to take the battle report he submitted, and while opening it for reference, he said with deep meaning: "Hmph, it's best to let Dianjing also receive the news, and the king of the province will deal with him." ”
"The last will understand."
After opening the battle report and checking it carefully, King Gu Hong raised his eyebrows, handed the battle report to Xu Lin, and was silent. And Xu Lin looked at the appearance of King Guhong, and while receiving the battle report, he secretly thought in his heart: The prince's city is extremely heavy, and the more he doesn't speak, the more people can't guess what he is thinking. However, it doesn't seem like a call for help this time.
After carefully reading the battle report, Xu Lin looked puzzled and said, "Zhenhai Hou wants to raid the pirate's base in five days?" And planned to dispatch the whole army and annihilate it in one fell swoop, this, what was he thinking? ”
Xu Lin's doubts were exactly the doubts of King Guhong, who pondered for a moment and said: "This Zhenhaihou, the recent behavior is really strange, this Haichuan bandit trouble has lasted more than four months, the two sides have fought several times, Zhenhaihou can be described as a fiasco. And recently, he has frequently asked for help, and he has obviously been defeated, why is there a sudden Armageddon? ”
"Yes, last time he took the initiative to attack, and he lost thousands of men, why, he forgot it so quickly? Could it be that the recent war faux pas made him worry about the court's discussions, so he made a desperate bet. ”
Listening to what the generals said, King Guhong shook his head and said nothing, and after pondering for a while, he looked at Xu Lin. The latter naturally knew that King Guhong was asking for his opinion, and immediately said: "Lord Wang, if he wants to fight the Marquis of Zhenhai, it will not necessarily be a bad thing for us." ”
"This king thinks the same way, Xu Lin, you can explain it to everyone."
"Huh", Xu Lin replied to King Guhong's words, turned around and explained to the generals: "Everyone, imagine that our Wanli army is about to go to support, and at this moment, the Marquis of Zhenhai is desperate to have a decisive battle, and if he wins, everything will be fine; defeat, you can also find out the details of the other party, which is beneficial and harmless to us. The worst result is that the entire army of Zhenhai Hou will be wiped out. But he is not the prince's henchman, take this opportunity to weaken his strength, the court will not spare him, immediately Zhenhai Hou is imprisoned, the prince is the first to suppress the bandits, and then strongly recommend one person, one of you should take office and take charge of Linhai City. ”
Xu Lin explained, and everyone suddenly realized. Strategically speaking, he was right, but it is not difficult to see from these remarks that King Guhong and Xu Lin did not take the lives of the 30,000 Great Qi soldiers under the Marquis of Zhenhai seriously.
"By the way, how are the 20,000 recruits in the pioneer battalion trained?"
Hearing King Gu Hong ask about this, the right vanguard hurriedly replied: "Lord Qiqi, the recruits have been training for more than a month, and they have shown initial results, and the final general will guarantee that in another half a month, they will definitely be able to go into battle to kill the enemy." ”
"Half a moon? Hmph, this king doesn't have so much spare time", saying this, King Guhong stood up and looked at the barracks, and continued: "To be a soldier is to have the determination to die on the battlefield at any time. Wan Lijun is not a relief shop, this king can't support them for so long in vain, you will go to give an order later, let them pack up their armaments, and in three days, we will set off for Linhai City. ”
"Whoa."
King Guhong immediately gave the order, and his subordinates did not dare to disobey, and the right vanguard suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Lord Wang, among the recruits this time, two of the mid-formations are good, which one of them ...... Mu Zhongzhen is really well-trained, it has only been a month, and the 1,000 men and horses under his command have already caught up with the ordinary garrison army. ”
The right vanguard mentioned Mu Huang was naturally Mu Huang, and listening to her matter, King Gu Hong unexpectedly put away his arrogant expression, looked a little proud for the first time, and said: "How can he have that ability, there should be a master behind him." By the way, you ordered to go down, this time to suppress the bandits, let the two of them perform well in the middle of the formation, and try to arrange more battles for them. According to the king's will, let them be the vanguard. ”
"Lord Wang, this ......"
The right pioneer had an embarrassed expression, as if he was not very relieved about the two thousand recruits, and looking at his appearance, King Guhong waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said with a mysterious smile: "If someone wants to make a contribution, this king should support him, and see if he is this piece of material." ”
"What? Departure in three days, how can it be so fast? ”
The discussion on King Guhong's side was over, and the right vanguard issued an order, and listening to his words, Hurricane couldn't help but ask: "This, this is simply using us as cannon fodder." It's only been a month since the recruit was trained, and he was going to go to the battlefield and be a vanguard army, these guys from the Wanli Army are really unrighteous. ”
Listening to the wind's words, Qingcheng pondered for a moment, and then sighed lightly: "It should be that Zhenhaihou's side is really about to be unable to hold on." But this is also a good thing, if you really train here for a month, do you think this time it will be our turn to suppress the bandits? However, what I didn't expect was that he Prince Mu actually asked us to be the vanguard army, which is obviously to give me military merits, could it be that he changed his mind? ”
"Yes, maybe Prince Mu wants to take you as a son-in-law."
Naturally, everyone didn't take it to heart when it was a joke. Just as they were chatting, Mu Huang came over and said with a smile: "How about my Duan Xianfa, I have already received the military order, right?" In the past two days, we have to put our men and horses in order, and in three days we will go to the battlefield, so you have to show off your skills. ”
Listening to Mu Huang's words, Qingcheng was silent, looked at Lei Ying and Wind, motioned for them to stand back, and then said to her: "Big and small, ......"
"Call me Mu Zhongzhen!"
"Okay, Mu Zhongzhen", after glancing at Mu Huang, Qingcheng said solemnly: "This battlefield is different from the usual training, the sword is really eyeless, and I may not be able to take care of you at that time." So after going to Linhai City, you try to stay in the Chinese army as much as possible, and I will take the lead in the charge, do you think it's okay? ”
"Okay, okay, I know that you are afraid that I will rob you of your credit, so you don't need to pretend to care about me. Don't worry, you must have done the manual work, and General Ben is in charge of strategizing. ”
Listening to Mu Huang's answer, Qingcheng smiled helplessly and stopped arguing with her.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and Wan Lijun began to set off. On this day, Qingcheng also changed into a heroic and powerful suit, which was the armor that his father spent a lot of money to build for him. I saw that he was wearing a "green beast scale helmet", a "python face swallowing armor", a "golden dragon tendon belt" around his waist, a "dark cloud group in Mobei" under his crotch, and a "thunder and lightning spear" in his hand.
"Truly God will come down to earth."
And Qingcheng looked at the thousand men and horses under Mu Huang, and after a moment of silence, he shouted loudly: "Soldiers! Today, we are going to Linhai City, and we are really going to the battlefield, are you afraid? ”
"Don't be afraid!"
For more than a month, Mu Huang kept his promise to be the shopkeeper and handed over the training of the thousand people to Qingcheng. As for Qingcheng, he was very brilliant in martial arts, and these recruits were also very convinced of him. So for them, Qingcheng's words are even heavier than Mu Huang. And at this moment, looking at their enthusiastic appearances, Qingcheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Just don't be afraid. Listen, we are the king of the Great Qi, winning the world, the Quartet is coming to the court, and the barbarians abroad are not afraid, so we will win this battle. This is also a great opportunity for us to make contributions, listen, the boss has ordered us to be the vanguard, you have to cherish it, understand? ”
"Whoa!"
The three armies did not move, the grain and grass went first, and the morale was the heaviest. was originally used as cannon fodder by Wan Lijun, but Qingcheng said that it was a great opportunity, in order to stabilize the morale of the army and raise morale. And after he finished speaking, the thousand vanguard troops were excited, and they were eager to try, not to mention the military strength, in this morale alone, they were far superior to the other recruits.
"Duan Xianfa, how are you preparing?"
Qingcheng was talking, and suddenly a person came, and when he heard the reputation, it was Mu Huang. At this moment, she is also wearing a strong suit, I saw that she was wearing a "Linghe Silver Light Helmet", a "Baichuan Jinhua Robe", a "Full Moon Heart Mirror Armor", a "Red Flame Gold Silk Jade Pendant Belt" on her waist, a "Xiliang Sweat and Blood Horse" under her crotch, and a "Silver Light Moon Spear" in her hand.
"Back to Mu Zhongzhen, everything is in order, you can go."
Listening to Qingcheng's words, Mu Huang changed his normal state, nodded solemnly, looked around at the soldiers, then looked at Qingcheng, chuckled and stretched out his right arm with a fist, and said: "On the battlefield, we live and die together." Victory is to share the glory; If they are defeated, they will go to Huangquan together. ”
Qingcheng didn't expect Mu Huang to say such a thing at all, he was stunned for a moment, then firmly stretched out his right arm, the two of them hit each other's wrists, Qingcheng said: "Life and death together!" ”
"Life and death!" "Life and death!"
Listening to the words of the two, Lei Ying and other cronies echoed the voice, and then all the soldiers chanted together, and their morale rose again. Seeing that the other vanguard armies were starting to set off, Mu Huang said to Qingcheng: "Let's go." ”
"Okay", after answering, Qingcheng reined in the horse, the two front hooves of the dark cloud were raised, and Qingcheng immediately shouted: "Go!" ”
In the early years of Jiande (Emperor Hui's name), Haichuan was troubled and harassed the people of Linhai. The defender Zhenhai Hou was invincible, and asked for help, and the emperor ordered the Dongfang Qing general Guhong Wang, leading 30,000 troops to annihilate him, and the battle was victorious. At that time, Qingcheng was twenty-one years old, and the first expedition was ......
