Chapter 453: Change Your Mind!
At a glance, these people knew that they were all recruits who had not been in battle, and only these people could only think so simply about defeating the enemy army and defending the Tang Dynasty. Ranwen? ??.? r?a?n?? e?n `net
Subsequently, Yang Guozhong sent people to gather all the recruits in the other mansions. After a while, all the 10,000 elite soldiers were assembled, and it was only at this moment that Yang Guozhong turned to face Lu Chen and said with a smile, "General Lu, this is a talisman." The old man is here to wish the general an early triumphant return. When the time comes, the old decay will definitely be the general's wind and dust! ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen also responded with a smile, "Don't worry, Prime Minister, I will definitely come back intact." I hope that by that time, the adults will still be able to have such a bright smile" After speaking, Lu Chen immediately turned around and walked in the direction of the landing mansion.
At the same time, those little generals also hurriedly recruited the soldiers and horses that had already been assembled, and all of them kept up with Lu Chen's pace.
A moment later, Lu Chen came to the front of the Lu Mansion, and Li Lan and Li Ling'er were already waiting at the door. Seeing Lu Chen, who was leading the army back from a distance, a trace of worry flashed in Li Lan's eyes. However, when Lu Chen came to the front, Li Lan had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said, "Chen'er, are you sure you want to lead the troops to the battle?" ”
After seeing Lu Chen nodding, Li Lan only said a few words, and she didn't persuade Lu Chen not to go or anything like that from beginning to end. She knows Lu Chen's character, once the matter is decided, I'm afraid no one can change it.
After exchanging a few words with Lu Chen, Li Lan said again, "Wait a while, your grandfather Lin will go and prepare some entourage for you." After all, these 10,000 soldiers and horses came out of the Yang family, and we are really not at ease! ”
As he spoke, the old butler had already walked out of the mansion, followed by two teams of heavily armed guards. The old butler came to Lu Chen's face, bowed slightly, and said, "Shizi, these two hundred people are all elite soldiers selected from the mansion. Since the last time Shizi went to rescue the hussar general's beloved daughter, the old man had thought about it. The prince will definitely go out to fight all year round in the future, so he can't do without his own retinue. These two hundred elite soldiers, each of them can defeat one enemy and two on the battlefield, and there are ten small generals among them, who are also quite familiar with marching and fighting, and if the future generations cannot find suitable generals, let these ten people temporarily take the position of generals. In the future, these people will be the personal guards of the prince, and as for loyalty, the prince can be completely assured. ”
After speaking, the old housekeeper immediately asked the ten people at the front of the team to come over and let them meet Lu Chen. After taking over this team, Lu Chen thanked the old butler for his hard work, and then he led the army in the direction of Chang'an City.
It didn't take long for Lu Chen to come to the east gate of Chang'an City. These soldiers defending the city had already been notified. After seeing Lu Chen's army coming, they hurriedly opened the city gate, and only closed the city gate after the 10,000 army led by Lu Chen went out of the city.
At the same time, in the lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Guozhong was sitting on a chair, and two people who seemed to be guests under him were talking to him.
"Prime Minister, you really didn't plant anyone in the army this time?" A guest asked with some surprise. After all, he knew that Yang Guozhong had always wanted to get rid of Lu Chen secretly, but just now he actually heard Yang Guozhong say that this Lu Chen led his troops to the battle, and he did not arrange his own people in the 10,000 army, which made him very puzzled.
Not only him, but even the guest next to him also looked at Yang Guozhong with a puzzled face, obviously very puzzled by his approach.
Seeing the puzzled looks of these two people, Yang Guozhong smiled confidently and said, "This time, Lu Chen went to sneak attack the rear of the Tubo army, and it was a life of nine deaths. And as long as we secretly expose his whereabouts to the Tibetan generals, you should be able to imagine what the result will be. There is no need to waste our manpower at all."
Hearing Yang Guozhong's words, the eyes of these two generals immediately lit up, and they said with admiration, "This is a good idea, or the wisdom of adults." However, it is a pity that these 10,000 recruits, the more than 10,000 soldiers that we have only managed to collect from all over the country with great difficulty, after this war, I am afraid that there will not be many left. ”
Indeed, once Lu Chen's marching route was exposed, the Tubo army would easily be able to encircle and kill all of them.
After hearing this guest secretary's words, Yang Guozhong also sighed lightly and said, "In order to be able to get rid of this son, even if you bury 10,000 troops, it's worth it!" After all, this son had already sensed that it was us. If you don't get rid of it this time, I'm afraid there will be endless trouble! ”
At the same time, after coming out of Chang'an City, Lu Chen led the army and did not run directly towards Ganzhou. After all, between Chang'an City and Ganzhou City, there are many cities such as Yuanzhou and Liangzhou. If Lu Chen passes by this road, I am afraid that he will soon be discovered by the enemy.
What's more, Lu Chen doesn't believe in Yang Guozhong. It is possible that Yang Guozhong has secretly sent someone to leak his whereabouts now. Of course, this is just Lu Chen's speculation. After all, when he was saving the Luo family, Luo Qi leaked his whereabouts to the people of Yizhou Taishou, which caused him to suffer a lot at that time.
This time is different from the last time, once his specific whereabouts are mastered by the enemy, it is no longer as simple as suffering a little. Thinking of this, Lu Chen suddenly felt in his heart that Ganzhou City couldn't go either. Maybe the enemy army in Ganzhou City has already set up a trap and is waiting for him to take the bait.
The more he thought about it, the more unreliable he felt, and Lu Chen immediately changed his mind: this time he couldn't go to Ganzhou City again, he should attack a city that everyone didn't expect!
Immediately after, Lu Chen took out a map and began to check the surrounding terrain. After a long time, Lu Chen's gaze fell on a marked city. And where his gaze stopped, it was Hezhou City, a city on the border between Tibet and the Tang Dynasty.
This city is a city in the north of Minzhou City, which used to belong to the Tang Dynasty. However, in a major battle between the two sides a few years ago, the city of Hezhou was deceived by the Tibetans to open the city gates. Because this city has a very important strategic position. Therefore, after capturing this city, the Tibetan side immediately stationed nearly 20,000 troops in it.
The Tang Dynasty army also tried to attack several times, but because the opponent's defense was too tight, they could only give up in the end.
In the past few years, the city of Hezhou has gradually been completely controlled by the Tibetans.
However, because in recent days, the Tibetan army has captured several cities in a row. This made the city of Hezhou become the inland city of Tibet. Moreover, because all the Tibetan armies are now attacking the cities of the Tang Dynasty, the defenders in the city of Hezhou are naturally less than half.
After considering this, Lu Chen suddenly made up his mind in his heart, and he attacked this city! (To be continued.) )
