Chapter 1143: Liu Xian's Intentions
The war that was already close in front of them was simply unavoidable, even if Liang Chao felt the Yongning Mansion, they immediately found the hiding place of Daniel Zhang and Wang Xin, and immediately acted to capture or kill them, but the army of more than 20,000 various tribes that had been assembled could not retreat so quickly.
Perhaps, these people will be chaotic, but they will not retreat because of this, after all, they let go of the contradictions between each other and gathered together, in fact, it is just a matter of interests, and now, except for some food that is only enough for such a month, they have not received any benefits, these people are very realistic, even if they are short-sighted, they are also very realistic, since there is no benefit, it is naturally impossible to retreat like this.
What's more, now those two people haven't been found by Liang Chao.
But now, it's no longer about these two people, because the war is already underway.
It was at the time of today, Liu Xian's scouts who patrolled the east of Yongning Mansion found the traces of a large group of people, and now what happened here is already known to everyone, so these scouts don't need to think about it at all, they immediately understand that the Yongning Mansion has moved, and the scouts who understand the seriousness of this immediately rode to the Sichuan Xingdu Division and reported Liu Xian.
After half a pillar of incense, Liu Xian, who knew the news, although he was a little surprised, did not delay at all, according to the situation reported by the scouts, he immediately arranged the formation, and immediately gave an order to prepare to meet the enemy.
As for the people below, when they first started, they didn't know what was going on, and they had a lot of words about Liu Xian's order, not only did they not tell them why they did this, but more importantly, Liu Xian chose to let them patrol here at such a time, you must know that these people, some of them followed Liu Xian, these people come from all over the world, and they may not be able to go back even if it is the New Year, but it is okay, but more people are local people in Sichuan, Obviously, their family is not far from them, but they can't go home for the New Year, and they don't even have time to rest, and they have to patrol here every day, how can they not complain.
However, when the news of Daniel Zhang and Wang Xin began to assemble a large army spread, these people immediately understood, in fact, they should not suspect Liu Xian anything, after all, Liu Xian led the troops to fight for many years, naturally will not make this kind of mistake, of course, although this is not a mistake, but Liu Xian is not the kind of person, like small topics and big things, now, it has also confirmed that Liu Xian's proposition is correct, the only reason for this is because it is the time of the New Year, Everyone wants to go home for the New Year.
And now, it is already the current critical juncture of the war, these people are naturally impossible to complain about anything, although it is said, compared to the words, these people below would rather not go home for the New Year, in this cold day in the field, but they are not willing to go to the battlefield and fight with people, but this kind of thing is not up to them, after all, since they have joined the army, they can only obey the orders from above, how can they make their own decisions.
But this time, this time, it made these people willing, the last time the servants were conquest, there was not a long time in the past, that time these people were also working together, although some people were afraid of losing their lives, but in comparison, the servants did not get rid of them, and it was also a huge threat to them, after all, the servants have been rampant in this land for so long, not only the various tribes living here, but even the Han people are often harassed by the servants, so, for themselves, but also for their families, They absolutely spared no effort in the matter of eliminating the servants.
And this time, there is not much difference between the matter of the servants and the last servant, compared to the threat of the servant to them, these rebels are even more excessive, after all, the servant is regardless of the Han or other ethnic groups, all of them rob without discrimination, and they also understand that if they do it too ruthlessly, they will definitely be severely ambitious by many parties, so although the servant kills, but they are not all killed, this time the reason why they will be exterminated by Liu Xian's army is really many.
But these people are different, these people are an army of people from various tribes, the purpose of these people is very simple, that is, rebellion, rebellion, is no longer simply to grab things, but to completely put the entire Han people on the opposite side, even this time, these people did not kill a person in Yongning Mansion, but for the following people, even if they are no longer educated, but they can also foresee, once these people rush into Sichuan, they will inevitably be killed, for this, they also have to fight desperately.
And at this time, Liu Xian's order to meet the enemy was sent, and these people naturally moved immediately.
So, the clash between the two armies happened on such a night.
It is said that it is a confrontation, but in fact it is not right, it should be said that this side has already set up a position to ambush those who plan to attack Sichuan.
When the movement over there in Yongning Mansion came over, preparations had already begun here, although the people below didn't know, but for Liu Xianlai, since there was already movement over there, the formation was set up here, and it would not make those two people too nervous, at most, just this time, Liu Xian and his rapid deployment of troops.
The place where the two armies clashed was at the intersection of Sichuan and Yunnan, and although there were many people from Yongning, there were only 2,000 people in total.
And the ambush directly opposite them, but Liu Xian's five thousand troops early on, these five thousand people have not moved before, just to wait for this moment, of course, not only here, but also several places where Yongning can lead to this side are also ambushed.
This time, after receiving Liu Xian's order, these people were not too flustered, after all, they already knew that this moment would come, so they did not make these people nervous because of the order, besides, these people were originally people who had been on the battlefield, so it was not very difficult to deal with this kind of scene.
However, this time Liu Xian's order was not only as simple as meeting the enemy, but also had one to annihilate all 2,000 people.
Although it has been discussed before, don't kill this time, but in the face of these two thousand people, Liu Xian still gave the order to kill, he knew very well that although these two thousand people were a lot, they could only be regarded as the vanguard at best, and they were sent out to explore the truth.
If all these two thousand people were annihilated here, Yongning's side would inevitably panic, and in this way, they would be able to ease their next move.
And the reason why Liu Xian wants to do this is because of Zhang Fan, he knows Zhang Fan's plan very well, after all, he was also present at the time, and discussed with Zhang Fan, this time the most important thing is to catch or kill Daniel Zhang and Wang Xin, but the others can be released first.
Although Liu Xian has not received the news, he also knows that now Zhang Fan's people must have infiltrated Yongning Mansion and are ready to make a move, if these two thousand people are annihilated here, Yongning will inevitably have some discussions, and slow down the pace of sending troops, after all, these people are not completely following the orders of those two people, even if they say anything, these tribes will not consume their combat power in vain, in this way, Zhang Fan's people will have a much greater chance of success.
What's more, Liu Xian also took into account one point, which is similar to what Zhang Fan thought, that is, the motives of those two people this time.
The news that Yongning Mansion was looted, Liu Xian knew a few hours earlier than Zhang Fan, and although Liu Xian had been fighting for many years, he was no worse than others in this regard, so it didn't take much effort, and he figured out such a reason, I'm afraid that those two people were planning to make a vote like this, and then leave immediately.
However, even after knowing such news, Liu Xian didn't know what those two people planned to do.
But now, after hearing that Yongning suddenly sent nearly 2,000 people out, Liu Xian understood.
Indeed, perhaps at a glance, such two thousand men are just the vanguard troops, and in such a short period of time, even if the other side is fully prepared, it is normal to send two thousand people out.
But Liu Xian didn't see it that way, after all, his own side was already ready, and the things that were prepared on his side, this news was not hidden, and there was no way to hide it, since there was movement on the Yongning side, and the people and horses were gathered here, everyone understood.
And in the face of the formation of tens of thousands of troops in the imperial court, there was only a team of 2,000 people sent out over there, which really shouldn't be.
However, Liu Xian saw that the reason why those two people did this was actually to deliberately delay time and attract the attention of their 20,000 horses to this side, so that they could escape.
They saw that the imperial court didn't want to kill so many tribes, so they did it.
But Liu Xian did the opposite, indeed, in this matter, it is true that it is not possible to create too many killings, but only 2,000 people, Liu Xian still does not pay attention to it, since these 2,000 people have been sent to the door by themselves, Liu Xian is naturally impossible to be polite, and directly annihilate them all.
In this way, Yongning's eyes will not be staring at this side, but at the two people, after all, their actions have led to the death of two thousand people.
And this can also buy a lot of time for Zhang Fan's people.
The rest depends on whether Liang Chao's gang can be resolved quickly.
