Chapter 209: Good News
"Not only that, but the widow sent people to Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia in Shuozhou, Ashina Sheer, the general of Zuo Xiaowei in Shengzhou, and Xue Guwu, the general of Zuo Wuhou in Lingzhou, for help, and the day is almost over!" Li Chengqian said. Flash Dance
This sentence was said to Song Junming, even if they didn't return to Wantong City, it didn't matter, he had enough troops to resist.
Song Junming didn't expect the prince to do such a thing, not only to deceive him, but also to deceive Li Daozong and others.
The situation is out of his control now, and he really doesn't know what to do now!
"Your Highness! Even if you send someone to ask for help, the King of Jiangxia and others may not bring troops to the rescue, and without a specific symbol in the army, I am afraid that the people sent by His Highness will be treated as detailed. Song Junming said, he just remembered this matter just now.
This made him put down some suspense, as long as Li Daozong and the three of them didn't come, the prince still had no choice, and in the end he had to go back with him obediently.
"This matter is not firm, Song Dudu bothered more! Although the widow doesn't understand the things in the army, I know that there are not a few people in the East Palace. ”
"Among these three, except for the widow emperor's uncle Jiangxia King Li Daozong, who will be suspicious, the other two don't have as many eyes as Jiangxia King."
"After some testing, troops will inevitably be sent to rescue, so we have at least two reinforcements." Li Chengqian said.
In addition to Xue Wanche in his East Palace, there are also Cheng Wuting, Pei Xingjian and several other people who are also very clear about the face here.
Therefore, they Li Chengqian were not afraid that they would not have reinforcements to help.
He now has about 40,000 soldiers and horses, and if he adds two other reinforcements, the strength must be more than 80,000.
In this way, Li Chengqian has a better idea in his heart.
"Your Highness! Even if the two generals, Ashina Sheer and Xue Guwu, led the troops, His Royal Highness has not thought about it, how should the food and grass of the army be supplied? Song Junming said.
The Tang Dynasty implemented the government soldier system, and the recruited government soldiers had to prepare their own equipment and even provide rations on the road.
The imperial court was not responsible for providing rations for the soldiers on the road, and only when they arrived at the concentration camp would the imperial court provide future grain and grass.
It was not until after the end of the war that the imperial court distributed rations on the way home.
Therefore, if Li Chengqian wanted to hoard a large number of soldiers and horses far away from Wantong City, the supply of grain and grass would be a serious injury.
After all, Li Chengqian's actions were private, and no one would transport them grain and grass at all.
In the end, the prince still has to obediently follow him Song Junming back to Wantong City, as long as the prince goes back, Song Junming is sure to bring the army back.
"The widow has already thought about it! You can let Wantong City send grain and grass, and the widow will send people back to raise grain and grass long before this, so the governor of Song doesn't have to worry! Li Chengqian said with a smile.
The three armies did not move the grain and grass first! How could he not have thought of this aspect of things.
He had already thought of a way to crack it, and Li Chengqian was determined to fight Xue Yantuo to the end.
Song Junming really has no tricks now! The prince has thought of everything! It's really watertight.
"Your Highness! Even if we can repel Bazhuo, as long as Bazhuo retreats to Mobei, we still can't do anything. ”
"We still can't do anything with him, after Bazhuo returns to Mobei, as long as he delays for a few more years, he can still make a comeback." Song Junming is no longer giving up.
I hope to persuade the prince to turn back and not go all the way to the dark.
Now his greatest wish is to get the prince back, and then send the prince back to Chang'an safely, so that he can feel at ease.
As for other things, he didn't care at all right now.
"There is no chance to do it again, as long as we can inflict heavy damage on each other, Bazhuo will be finished in this life!" Li Chengqian said.
Song Junming didn't know the secret, so he naturally didn't believe what Li Chengqian said, and thought that he was arrogant to the point of blindness.
Just like a terminally ill person, there is no cure.
Those who know the inside story naturally understand what the prince means, and they are all thinking in their hearts about how to make more meritorious contributions in this battle.
In short, everyone has things on their minds.
"Report~" A soldier rushed in, knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Highness!" General Xue Wanche sent back the battle report from the front, and asked His Highness to take a look. ”
After saying that, the soldier raised the battle report above his head, Wang Quan hurriedly stepped forward to take it, and turned around to hand it to Li Chengqian.
Everyone stretched their necks and looked forward to it, all wanting to know what Xue Wanche wrote in the battle report?
Was this ambush a victory or a defeat?
Li Chengqian opened Xue Wanche's battle report in full view of everyone, and quickly read the battle report while everyone was anxiously waiting.
"Your Highness! What did Xue Wanche say in the battle report? After Li Chengqian finished reading, Qiu Shenqian hurriedly asked.
"This battle is a great victory! The 30,000 elites sent by Bazhuo were defeated by Xue Wanche, killing 20,000 enemies and beheading 5,000. ”
"Xue Wanche not only won a complete victory, but also almost killed the enemy's main general, Eagle Daishan, but unfortunately let him run away."
"Spread this good news all over the army, let the soldiers see, what my Datang wants, dare to offend my Datang, this is an example." Li Chengqian said that he would hand over the good news to Wang Quan, and let Wang Quan spread the news of the great victory throughout the army.
Wang Quan took the good news and retreated, and soon the news of Xue Wanche's victory spread throughout the army, and the whole army immediately cheered.
"Congratulations, Your Highness! God bless me Datang! Wang Fangyi immediately congratulated.
"Congratulations, Your Highness! God bless Datang! Others congratulated as well.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's too early to celebrate, now that Xue Yantuo's vitality is greatly damaged, it is the moment for our army to counterattack, and all the soldiers are ready to make meritorious contributions." Li Chengqian said.
"Your Highness! I'm ready! Please also ask His Highness to give an order. Except for Song Junming, everyone else in the East Palace was enthusiastic.
"What does Governor Song think?" Li Chengqian looked at Song Junming and smiled.
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Song Junming, after all, there were 20,000 soldiers and horses he brought with him among the soldiers outside.
If he doesn't agree to run back to Wantong City, by the way, he will also take the 20,000 soldiers and horses he brought, how can he fight Xue Yantuo.
Everyone subconsciously moved closer to Song Junming and surrounded him, and a few people were blocked at the door of the big tent.
If Song Junming dared to act rashly, without Li Chengqian opening his mouth, these people would subdue Song Junming as soon as possible.
Song Junming saw that the current situation was not good for him, so he did not say no forcefully, but after thinking about it for a while, he joined Li Chengqian and them.
"The minister is willing to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to invade Mobei and eliminate Xue Yantuo." Song Junming said that this is also a helpless choice.
