Chapter 575: The Fall of the Mang Kingdom
Finally, after searching for a while in the chaotic army, Li Yu found the horse team of the Emperor Mangguo.
Li Yu let out a low roar, and swept towards the horse team without any banner like a hurricane.
The real fight began.
For some reason, Li Yu broke away from the cavalry and inexplicably got involved on the edge of the foot soldiers.
The cavalry of the Mang Army only fought with the Blue Dragon Army, and no one had time to weigh the overall situation of the battlefield.
After more than an hour of repeated fighting, the casualties on both sides were great, and due to the lack of mutual response, the horse team galloped and gradually dispersed.
Fortunately, when Li Yu was chasing and killing, some old soldiers recognized that it was the horse team of the Emperor of Mangguo, and immediately swarmed over to protect it, and the horse team of the Emperor of Mangguo echoed with the foot soldiers who rushed to kill again.
At this moment, Li Yu's horse team roared and pounced, and a few rushes scattered the already weak Mangguo Emperor's horse team, besieging the Mangguo Emperor's horse team in a large circle that seemed loose but could not break through.
Li Yu made a gesture, and a cold arrow flew out of the horse team, nailing it to the left front leg of the Mangguo Emperor's war horse accurately.
Suddenly, the Emperor of Mang was knocked to the ground before he could shout.
As soon as he took advantage of the situation, the Emperor Mang was taken captive on horseback.
The guards of the reckless army roared and slaughtered.
The knights around Li Yu had already responded, and in an instant, the crossbow arrows were fired, and then they swirled and rushed to kill, and in less than two rounds, the surrounding guards were all killed.
Emperor Mang was captured, and within half an hour, he was captured in the main formation of the Qinglong Army.
The morale of the reckless army has plummeted!
At twilight, this unprecedented and tragic fight finally ended.
The soldiers of the Blue Dragon Army did not cheer, and stood quietly on the battlefield strewn with corpses, until the blood-red sun did not enter the vast mountains.
In this battle, the emperor of Mang was captured, more than 90,000 people in the Mang army, only less than 30,000 remained, the corpses outside Huangwu City were like mountains, and the blood flowed like a river, under the guidance of strong morale, even at the last moment, the Mang army did not appear large-scale rout, which almost subverted the cognition of the Qinglong soldiers.
However, what is surprising is that after being captured, Emperor Mangguo did not give in to the Qinglong Army, but just looked up to the sky and sighed a few words, and then hit his head on the Yuan Mu and committed suicide.
The army at the end of a generation, the blood is not declining, and the fierceness at the time of death is embarrassing.
To Li Yu's reassurance, although the Emperor of Mangguo died martyrdom, but Wu Yong survived, the former imperial family of Wu, the prime minister of Mangguo, saw that the general trend was inviolable, so he decisively gave up his previous ambitions, bargained with Li Yu, and after getting some promises and benefits, he ordered all the remnants of the army to surrender, and then announced the gambling contract on the war book, and declared that this was the last words of the Emperor Mangguo.
Although it can't stand up to careful scrutiny, it's still okay to deceive people's hearts.
So, under the auspices of Wu Yong, the surrender of the cities of Mang can be said to be very smooth.
Li Yu sent strategists in the army to various garrisons to persuade them to surrender one by one.
The garrisons in various places saw that the general trend had gone, and with Wu Yong presiding, the domestic officials had already surrendered, so they surrendered one after another, but there were not many twists and turns in the middle.
At this point, the Mang Kingdom was basically destroyed.
The territory of Cangguo expanded again, and the six countries that had attacked Cangguo at the beginning were only Ruan, Wei, and Jin.
Although these three countries are the main forces of the six countries and the biggest opponents of the Cangguo army, seeing that the situation is getting worse and worse, the world has a different view of this war.
Before the war, in addition to the Cangguo, the people of the world generally believed that the Cangguo was the losing side, although this judgment had the influence of the war of the Jin Dynasty, more importantly, there were many "people of insight" who compared the military strength of the Cangguo and the countries, and believed that the military strength of each country was extremely superior, and it was not the Cang army that was trapped in the quagmire of the Chu State to resist.
In addition, at that time, the power of the heavy cavalry shocked the world, and everyone thought that the Cangguo was not ready to go to war, and sold the heavy cavalry equipment to other countries, which was an extremely stupid practice.
In the middle of the war, it was the appearance of the red-coated cannon that defeated the coalition formed by the vanguard army of the Three Kingdoms in one fell swoop, which made the people of the world change the previous one-sided public opinion and believed that Cangguo had the strength to carry out a tug-of-war with other countries.
The fall of Fan, the defeat of Kang, and the weakness of the alliance of the three countries on the front line, the people of the world understood that the general trend of Cangguo had been achieved, and the victory of this war completely fell to the side of Cangguo.
The fall of the Mang Kingdom is the embodiment of this general trend.
Otherwise, the Emperor of Mang would not have been cornered by the domestic clan and foreign armies, and would have taken the risk of a war.
When the news reached Xincangcheng, Yang Mu was very happy.
Cangguo has been at war with other countries for so long, defeating one country after another, and it is the easiest to count Mangguo.
It can be said that it is a battle to win or lose.
Among them, most of it is due to Li Yu's war book, which made a risky bet.
Such a great credit is naturally not to be rewarded.
After more than ten days, the commendation order arrived in the territory of Mangguo.
On the spot, Li Yu read the emperor's order to all the soldiers, praised the bravery of the soldiers, rewarded them with points and wine, and authorized the soldiers of the army to drink for three days.
The overall situation must be certain, in order to draw troops to support the main battlefield, Li Yu did not stay in Mangguo for a long time.
Instead, he supported some puppet officials, recruited some government soldiers, and let the surrendered Mang army cooperate, and reorganized, after the balance of forces on all sides and the promise of many benefits, Li Yu left 20,000 Qinglong Army, and led the army to withdraw from the territory of Mangguo, and joined the main army commanded by Wei Zhongquan.
On the night of the meeting, Wei Zhongquan set up a military banquet to wash the dust for Li Yu, and talked about the battle of exterminating the recklessness during the conversation, and Li Yu's mood was different.
On that day, the scene of Emperor Mangguo pretending to die on the wood in front of him was still lingering in his heart.
"Generalissimo, you say that if we destroy one country after another, will it bring great disasters to the world, and what is the significance?" Li Yu couldn't help asking.
"Then do you know, why in my Blue Dragon Army, your ranking is slightly below Qu Yong?" Wei Zhongquan asked rhetorically.
"This ...... Please also ask the Generalissimo to give advice. ”
"The chaos of the world has been going on for a long time, four hundred years ago, the Son of Heaven shocked the world, there was no war between the countries, and it was these hundreds of years that made the world of Great Gifts developed, and many barbarian lands gradually became fertile soil, and the population of the people increased by more than ten times, which is the beauty of peace in the world. Today, my Cangguo seems to be raising a military disaster, but in fact, it is pacifying the world, and the merit is in the future, you don't need to think about it, this time the merit is great, it is already good. ”
Li Yu shook his head and said: "The battle of this battle is not a big war, but more than 10,000 soldiers of our army have died. ”
