Chapter 257: Make a bet
However, Li Jing crossed the city without entering, and hurried to the next stop, Mayi, which was not only the battlefield of several major wars in history, but also the bridgehead of the war against the Turks. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When Li Jing arrived in Mayi, good news came from Lingzhou, Li Daozong, the head of the Datongdao march, engaged the Turks in Lingzhou, this time it was the first large-scale battle with the Turks in the six routes of soldiers and horses and won a complete victory, Li Daozong defeated tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of more than a dozen Turkic tribes in one fell swoop, and captured tens of thousands of people and animals.
At the same time, the Turki Khan, Yu Sheshe, and Yin Naitler led their troops to surrender to the Tang Dynasty and join the Hajj.
The time has come to the end of December, and it is only a few days before the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, which should urge the family to buy New Year goods in Chang'an Wu Yuanqing, write the Spring Festival and hang the Spring Festival, and be busy for the New Year.
But here in Guan Shuofang, there is no trace of youth, but more and more slaughter. The faces of each one were grim, as if a big war was about to break out.
However, the war did reach the critical point of breaking out, and on the 28th day of the lunar month, Wei Chigong led 10,000 soldiers and horses to leave Shuofang City and go in the direction of Yunzhong. The purpose of this trip was to cooperate with Li Ji, the head of the Tongdesert Road march, to attack the Turkic hinterland.
When he left, Wei Chigong also held a swearing-in meeting, which was nothing more than to boost morale and shout slogans.
It's just that in the end, Wei Chigong was ashamed to say that he had made a poem for everyone, and he wanted to encourage you together, so that Wu Yuanqing, who was listening, couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
Because Wei Chigong's so-called poem he wrote turned out to be the Xijiangyue poem plagiarized by Wu Yuanqing before: "The courtiers are in the court, and the soldiers on the side are fighting." The right time, place and people. Turkic Kovar? Yes.
On this day, the tower is full of dragons, and he is walking on the mountains and rivers. All the people are in harmony with the wind song. Congratulations from all over the world. ā
This shameless old bastard, no wonder he had to write it himself, it turned out that he had already settled and waited here.
Phew, and said that he should always taste it, and the feeling was that he couldn't remember it at the time, so he could memorize it after he wrote it on paper.
Wu Yuanqing couldn't expose this shameless old film on the spot, so he could only hold his stomach and comfort himself that everyone was plagiarizing, although the person who plagiarized himself didn't know that it would be hundreds of years later, and he plagiarized himself in front of him, but since it was all plagiarism, why should he be angry.
At the same time that Wei Chigong left the city, Su Dingfang also led 2,000 soldiers and horses to Mayi to join the chief Li Jing.
Standing on the city wall and looking at the army leaving the city like a long dragon, Wu Yuanqing said excitedly: "From now on, the war of the Tang Dynasty to destroy the Turks will officially start, and in a few months, Lao Tzu will be able to return to the prosperous world of Chang'an."
"Phew, what you think is beautiful, you want to end the war and return to Chang'an in a few months, you should be fighting for fun" Cheng Chumo who spoke was standing aside, this guy led more than 200 people to meet a Turkic cavalry more than 100 miles away two days ago, the number of both sides was equal, a hard battle, although this group of Turkic soldiers and horses was annihilated, but Cheng Chumo was also shot with two arrows and stabbed.
Although the injury was not serious, he also became an out-and-out wounded, so this time Wei Chigong and Su Dingfang did not take him, but let him stay in Shuofang to lead the remaining 1,000 people to guard the city and protect the safety of grain and grass.
Some time ago, he led his troops to fight with a small group of Turkic troops every day, which made Cheng Chumo feel stunned for a long time, but when the real war was about to start, he was left in the rear because of a small injury caused by a big fart, which made Cheng Chumo feel very unhappy, and he spoke a lot.
"Of course, fighting a war is not a joke, let alone a war to destroy a country, but also to destroy an extremely powerful country. Normally, it's normal to play for a few years. Wu Yuanqing said with a smile.
"Then you still said that you can go back to Chang'an in a few months," Cheng Chumo said angrily.
"Yes, I'm not wrong, I'm talking about normal, but this time the Turks are not among them. This time, the time, place, and people are all in my Datang, and when we have the advantage, there is no reason why the war will be stalemate and need to be fought for several years. As expected, it is estimated that it will be done in four or five months," Wu Yuanqing knew the trend of this war in history, so he said it with such confidence, just like a god stick prophet.
This is just like what the imperial doctor in the dragon and phoenix shop said in the later movie, I don't know that the result is gambling, and I predict that the result is investment.
Therefore, Wu Yuanqing dared to let all the caravans of the Wu family run with him before the war began, ready to make war money.
Cheng Chumo was not as optimistic as Wu Yuanqing, frowning and smiling bitterly: "Fortunately, General Manager Li will not be as confident as you, otherwise the rash attack of the enemy will inevitably cause heavy losses to the soldiers."
Wu Yuanqing couldn't help pouting, would Li Jing be confident? What are you kidding, if you are not confident, you dare to lead 3,000 men and horses to raid Xiangcheng, and if you are not confident, you dare to let Su Dingfang lead 200 cavalry to raid the Turkic Khan.
Not confident?
Hmph, Li Jing is more confident than anyone else, a generation of military gods is like this.
"Chu Mo, it seems that you don't agree with my judgment very much, otherwise, let's gamble, okay" Wu Yuanqing rolled his eyes.
"Bet on it, I'm afraid of you," Cheng Chumo said with confidence in his eyes.
"You don't have to ask what the bet is, you can agree, you are not afraid of regrets," Wu Yuanqing asked with a smile.
"No, because you're going to lose" Cheng Chumo burst with confidence.
"Okay, then it's up to you" What else can Wu Yuanqing say, investment is as simple as that.
"Hey, no," Cheng Chumo suddenly shouted.
"What's not going to work, why can't you regret it," Wu Yuanqing hurriedly asked.
"You regret it, I just think we gambled a little too long, maybe we will forget about it in a few months," Cheng Chumo said.
"Rub, how can you forget it after a few months" Wu Yuanqing was speechless.
"I'm stupid, it's easy to forget," Cheng Chumo rolled his eyes.
"Then I'll keep it in mind, and I'll remind you when the time comes," Wu Yuanqing thought for a while and said.
"That's not good, in case you lose at that time, what should you do if you don't remind me" Cheng Chumo put on a look of disbelief.
"Damn, this doesn't work, that doesn't work, then what do you say" Wu Yuanqing was anxious, Lao Tzu is an honest and trustworthy little Langjun, why do you even doubt Lao Tzu.
"Manager Li's primary goal is definitely Dingxiang, let's bet on how long it will take him to lay Dingxiang, if it is laid within a month, then you win, otherwise you will lose" Cheng Chumo measured it in his heart and said.
"Okay, it's up to you, but you're going to lose, in addition to the bet you want to lose, you'll have to go with me when the time comes."
