Chapter 408: Lonely White Robe Attacks Chang'an
Direction is important.
Different directions represent different choices, corresponding to different destinies, and obtaining different results.
In this ambush battle on the mountain, Wang Ji did not choose to stay in the northwest corner, but went all the way north, preparing to surprise attack the empress's pro-army. What awaits him in the north will be an unexpected fate.
Soon after he left, Chen Qingzhi rushed out from the northwest corner and desperately escaped the pursuit of the Tang army in the rear. What he urgently needs to do is also about the choice of direction.
After escaping out of a hundred miles in embarrassment, the defeated army of the Southern Jin Dynasty rested on a certain plain and took stock of the people on the spot.
At this time, Chen Qingzhi was covered in blood, and was half-kneeling on the grass, holding a towel in his hand, while wiping the wounds of his beloved steed, while listening to the report of his confidant lieutenant.
"Of the 7,000 white-robed guards, more than 1,800 were killed and 2,300 wounded. An army of 300,000 is now only ...... 30,000 people broke through with us. ”
The lieutenant's eyes were red, his fists clenched, and he didn't say any more.
Hearing the figure of 300,000, Chen Qingzhi's hand holding the towel trembled suddenly, and he immediately returned to stability and continued to patiently wipe his mount.
The surrounding generals hung their heads and mourned in silence for the many comrades who died in battle.
The atmosphere was somber and depressing.
300,000 when you came, only 30,000 when you left, the gap is too great, this is a miserable defeat. Even now, many people present still couldn't believe that the invincible white-robed military god would suffer such a painful defeat.
Chen Qingzhi staked the main force all on it, aiming to win, but he didn't expect to be defeated, such a result was unacceptable to the surviving soldiers, and they didn't know how to face the Jiangnan fathers.
The battle will be an unforgettable shame for them.
They were in a low mood and surrounded Chen Qingzhi in the center, waiting for the main general to arrange.
The 30,000 defeated army fled, and at this time it had penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Northern Tang Dynasty, far away from the southern battlefield. How to retreat and where to retreat are all difficult problems in front of us.
To the north of the Liangjie Mountains, there are vast plains everywhere, and it is very easy for these 30,000 people to expose their whereabouts on the way back to the south. Moreover, the Tang army knew that Chen Qingzhi would break through in the northwest direction, and they would strictly seal the northern border and send troops to search for his traces.
Once discovered, it will be encircled again, and it will be impossible to escape with the defeat of these remnants.
Seeing that Chen Qingzhi only cared about taking care of the war horse and had been silent, the deputy general finally couldn't hold it back, saluted and said, "Marshal, how should we return to the south, please show me." ”
Others also bowed their heads to the order.
Chen Qingzhi was busy with his hands and did not look back, and asked, "Where do you want to retreat?" ”
The direction of the retreat is crucial. Once the route is set, even if you encounter a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, you can't turn back, you can only fight to the end.
The adjutant general turned around, glanced around at the others, and took the lead in speaking: "In the foolish opinion of the last general, we have come out of the nest, and now that we have been defeated, the enemy army will definitely burn down our military camp, and Lujiang will definitely not be able to go back." For the sake of now, we can only abandon the offensive in the middle. ”
The middle army is gone, where is the middle offensive.
Someone next to him said, "Not bad." According to the previous military report, General Zhao Kuo, who was on the lower road, attacked the city and pulled out the village, and the momentum was rapid, and the location was further north than the upper road. If we go to him, the distance will be closer. ”
As soon as this remark came out, many people agreed.
However, someone frowned and said: "Let's think so, with the wisdom of the enemy Cai Jiushi, we may not be able to consider it." Most likely, he's just standing guard on the way, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net. Maybe he should do the opposite and switch to General Bai, who is on the road. ”
Just now, the man was unwilling, and sneered slightly: "You shouldn't be killed by the enemy, right?" If you go far and far, the risk of being attacked will only be greater! ”
At this point, everyone was very irritable, and the two groups of people quickly quarreled, and they couldn't agree with each other.
Chen Qingzhi stood there quietly, lightly brushing the horse's mane with his hand, a little distracted.
Seeing this, the adjutant general coughed dryly, signaled everyone to be quiet, and stepped forward and said: "The last general thinks that the current situation is urgent, no matter which route you choose to retreat, you should make a decision immediately, otherwise, when the enemy army is properly arranged, it will be more difficult to kill back!" ”
The soldiers are fast, the more critical the moment, the more hesitant they are, and they must cut through the chaos quickly.
Chen Baipao is a generation of famous generals, of course he understands this truth, but looking at his performance at the moment, it is clear that he is undecided, and he is still weighing the situation in his heart.
Hearing this man's advice, he came back to his senses and turned to look at the generals.
"I know what you think. I was wondering if there is a third way? ”
Everyone was in awe.
At present, there are only two Jin armies left in the Northern Tang Dynasty, how can there be a third option? Could it be that the coach wants to withdraw directly to Jiangnan?
They stared at Chen Qingzhi, puzzled.
Chen Qingzhi thought slightly, and then said: "Since we are alone and go deep into the hinterland of the Northern Tang Dynasty, why don't we give it a go, continue to go north, and go straight to the Yellow Dragon?" ”
When everyone heard this, their shock was beyond words.
It turned out that he didn't plan to retreat, and even wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack!
Chen Qingzhi looked at their stunned expressions, and did not rush to explain, but ordered: "Take the map." ”
The two subordinates immediately took out the map, stretched out a corner of each, and unfolded it in front of the generals.
Chen Qingzhi walked to the map, stretched out his hand to circle one of them, squinted his eyes and said, "If my judgment is correct, we should be here now." ”
All the generals stepped forward.
"You see, as long as we are bold and move in the northeast direction, then there will be no strong city passes for thousands of miles, and we can be unimpeded. And the main combat forces of the Northern Tang Dynasty were all sent to the front line, and the hinterland was empty! ”
He patted the large area of land on the map with his hand, and his spirit was flying.
"What's more, everyone is full of thoughts about escaping, and the enemy is empathetic, and they will also take it for granted that we must retreat to the south, and we will never think that we will move forward bravely and win in danger!"
As he said this, he held out his finger and drew a line from his current position all the way north.
Everyone stared at that finger, and their hearts were pounding. When he finished speaking, his fingers stopped, and finally froze somewhere in the picture.
Looking at the two words marked on it, their eyes trembled fiercely.
Changan!
Chen Qingzhi wants to attack thousands of miles and take Chang'an directly!
All or nothing, his ambitions are too great.
There was silence in the room, and everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak.
Chen Qingzhi didn't look at the map again, and talked eloquently, "When you were arguing just now, I was thinking about this route. As long as we are decisive enough and travel under the stars, we will definitely be able to descend from the sky and strangle the monarchs and ministers of the Northern Tang Dynasty in their sleep! ”
"This ......"
Everyone looked hesitant, not knowing what to say.
It's a crazy idea, it's a complete fight. If there is a slight mistake in the pool, if they are detected by the Northern Tang Dynasty, they will fall into a desperate situation from which they will never recover, and then they will be enemies on all sides, and there will be no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
To come up with such a strange scheme can be described as a master of art and boldness.
Chen Qingzhi saw their timidity, his face was calm, and he smiled: "Regarding the problem of grain and grass, I just calculated, the problem is not big, we can still loot along the way." As for combat effectiveness, it is even less of a problem. ”
No one answered.
Chen Qingzhi lowered his hand and said lightly: "People in white robes, I hope that you still remember the glory you carry." If you are really killed and can't do this, then it is better to stay in Bishan forever, like the 1,800 brothers. At the very least, their waists are hard enough! ”
His voice was very soft, and it fell on everyone's ears, but it exploded like thunder, and it shook the heart.
Many white-robed sergeants trembled and suddenly straightened their waists.
That's right, we are the white-robed army that makes the world fearful!
We galloped across the field, invincible, and wrote countless seemingly impossible myths!
Who have we been afraid of!
At this moment, countless people made up their minds.
Chen Qingzhi glanced back, his face expressionless, which seemed more like a sense of contempt to others.
Contempt from the king.
"As for those who don't wear white robes, I'd like to know if you have the right to envy that white robe? Why are you worthy of joining the white-robed army, worthy of being with me, shining in the annals of history for thousands of years in the future! ”
Others were full of excitement and blood.
Great Southern Jin Erlang, who doesn't want to follow that white robe, prancing horse whip, swallowing mountains and rivers.
At this time, Chen Baipao said, are you worthy?
You don't even have the guts to follow me, so what qualifications do you have to become a legend?
In front of everyone's eyes, Chen Qingzhi got on the horse, and finally said: "This is a thousand miles away, Chen Qingzhi has nothing to repay." After a successful war, a thousand years of fame, I share this white robe with you! ”
