Chapter 16: A Great Victory
Two hours later, Su Yun led the cavalry to the vicinity of Lanxiang, although he had already prepared in his heart, he was still startled by the mountains of heavy grain and grass. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers in charge of the guards were scattered around, chatting and laughing in twos and threes, without the slightest vigilance.
"I really found a treasure this time!"
Su Yun licked his lips and lifted the spear in his hand, "This Zhen Fu is really a competent transport captain!" The brothers went to rob his uncle! ”
The cavalry is already ready to move, and in the battle of Chungling, almost everyone has relatives and friends who died under the sword of the new army, which will be full of strength.
"Attack!"
Su Yun gave an order, and the Lingling cavalry came out of the cage like a fierce tiger and rushed towards the enemy camp.
The new troops left behind were stunned by the scene in front of them, no one expected that these green forest thieves would actually attack the camp, and by the time they reacted, the war horses had already rushed to them.
The defense of the new army was instantly crushed before it could be organized, and it was not clear in the darkness of the night the enemy's situation, only the cavalry was seen rushing back and forth in the battalion, constantly reaping the lives of their comrades.
"Go and ask the general for help!" A new army general shouted, and several soldiers climbed onto their horses in embarrassment, trying to escape back to Shuishui, but they were quickly solved by Zhu You, who was ambushed outside the camp.
"It's no wonder that there are no telephones in this era!"
Half an hour later, the camp was calm, except for a hundred or so soldiers who were frightened and begged for mercy.
The Chung Ling cavalry had only a few dozen dead and wounded, and it can be said that it was a complete victory.
Su Yun sent a fast horse back to Jianyang to report the news, and then began to count his loot.
"Second son, this can't be counted at all!" The soldier smiled bitterly, but his face couldn't hide his excitement.
"Stupid! Who let you count them one by one! Just put the types together, load all the valuable ones for me, and burn the ones that can't be taken away! ”
Su Yun rewarded him with a brain jump.
The cavalry had to make a cameo appearance as coolies, but the new army had too much baggage, and all the carriages and horses in the battalion were used, and only half of them were loaded.
"Is it really going to be burned? These things are enough for our entire Green Forest military for more than half a year. Zhu You looked at the rest of the supplies, his face full of pity.
"I wonder if you're scared? When Wang Mang is destroyed, what is there missing? Su Yun rolled his eyes at him.
"Alas, who knows what will happen in the future, anyway, even if it is distressing now." Zhu You sighed.
Su Yun didn't bother to persuade again, and waved his hand, "Burn!" ”
In Jianyang City, Liu Xuan was in the Juyi Hall with Li Tong, Wang Chang and a group of generals.
"Lord Wang, my brother has already led the army to the enemy's baggage camp, and now he should have succeeded, now is a good opportunity to go out of the city to meet the enemy!" Liu Xuan had already put on his armor and said loudly.
"Humph! How do I know that he, Liu Xiu, is not absconding in fear of crime! Besides, he said that if he could take it, he could take it! Wang Kuang said coldly.
"My lord! I think Liu Xiu is right, if Liu Xiu really takes the baggage of the new army, the enemy army will definitely be in chaos and the battle can be won. Li Tong and Wang Chang persuaded.
"What if not? If we abandon the fortified city, the enemy will take advantage of the situation to attack, and there will be no way to retreat! Wang Kuang knew that Liu Xiu's results meant that he had failed in the gambling contract, and he still insisted on his opinion.
"If this opportunity is missed, and the enemy forces are relieved to mobilize reinforcements to besiege the city, we will also be defeated!" Liu Xuan was quite dissatisfied with his excuses.
Many generals sided with Liu Xuan.
Wang Kuang was unmoved, "If I say no, I can't!" ”
"If the situation is wrong, I, Liu Xuan, am willing to die and apologize!"
"Hmph, what are you?"
"Wang Kuang! Are you going to delay the fighter! Liu Xuan couldn't bear it anymore at this time, and he was furious.
"It's useless to quarrel, since we respect Your Majesty together, please ask Your Majesty to decide!" Wang saw that the two of them could not hold each other, and came out to persuade him.
Only then did everyone think that Liu Xuan was also present, and they all looked at him.
Liu Xuan was stunned, thought about it and stopped talking a little.
"Ahem!" Wang Kuang glanced at him, this Liu Xuan was in the big position with one hand, and he would definitely face himself, he couldn't help but sneer, waiting to see Liu Xuan and his party deflated.
"I ...... The widow thinks that there is some truth in Lord Wang's words......"
Liu Xuan said hesitantly, and Wang Kuang nodded with satisfaction.
"But General Liu's words are right, if you seize this opportunity and annihilate the Zhen Fu army in one fell swoop, the entire Nanyang region will be under the rule of the Green Forest Army, and great things can be expected!"
"You!" Wang Kuang never thought that Liu Xuan, who had always been weak, would actually disobey his will, and he trembled with anger.
Liu Xuan was overjoyed and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
"Humph!" Wang Kuang was annoyed and ashamed, and walked away.
Liu Xuan looked at his back, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Half an hour later, the army of the green forest poured out of the city and confronted the army of the new dynasty thirty miles outside the city.
"What's going on, are these thieves so stupid? How dare you go out of the city to fight? Zhen Fu laughed, "It seems that this time it can be done!" ”
Seeing that the new army on the opposite side was well-equipped and neatly organized, the soldiers on the side of the Green Forest Army couldn't help but beat drums in their hearts, Wang Kuang watched coldly, "I see what you Liu Jiu have to say!" ”
Liu Xuan rode his horse to the front of the army and shouted to the opposite side, "The thieves are reckless and usurp power, and the people are not happy!" The people's hearts are wanted, and the Han family should be happy! ”
"Presumptuous!" Zhen Fu said angrily, "The thief quickly restrains himself and asks for the guilt, otherwise he will slaughter your nine clans!" ”
"Zhen Fu! Don't you know that your baggage, grain and grass have been swept away by my Green Forest Army? "Liu Xuan's voice is like a bell, spreading throughout the three armies.
"Don't cheat a thief! Don't want to move the hearts of our army! Zhen Fu disagreed.
"If you don't believe me, go back to your dog's head and see!"
"If you dare to humiliate me, I will cut you with a thousand knives!" Zhen Fu scolded and glanced back.
"What's going on?" He was stunned by what he saw.
In the rear of the army, the night has been dyed red, and the blazing fires can be seen from dozens of miles away.
"General! That's the direction of Lanxiang! Liang Qiuqi said anxiously.
The 100,000 new troops were all shocked by the firelight, and the formation was chaotic for a while.
"Drumming march!"
Liu Xuan raised his halberd, shouted, the low drum sounded, and the green forest army was full of momentum and rushed towards the new army.
"Attack! Attack! Zhen Fu was shocked, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly commanded the troops to fight.
"Kill!"
At this time, there was a loud shout of killing from the rear of the new army, and a cavalry strangled all the way.
"What the hell is going on!" Zhen Fu was already in chaos, many soldiers of the New Dynasty turned their heads and ran, and the army that was still majestic just now instantly turned into a rout, and the screams were continuous between the trampling of each other, and the panic spread rapidly.
It turned out that after Su Yun ignited the remaining supplies, he left only a hundred people to escort the prisoners and booty back to Jianyang, and led the cavalry to the battlefield.
No one thought that the 100,000 army would be so vulnerable, and the Green Forest Army was almost like cutting vegetables and chasing people everywhere to chop, and even if the gods came, they would not be able to return to the sky.
Zhen Fu and Liang Qiuqi were protected by a group of dozens of personal soldiers and retreated to the rear, and he was already disheveled and incoherent under the blow.
"Zhen Fuxiu is leaving!" Liu Xuan had been staring at him from the beginning, and when he saw that he was starting to run away, he hurriedly chased after him with his troops.
"There's a big fish here!" Su Yun also paid special attention to this group of deserters, abandoned many deserters, and led the cavalry to block Zhen Fu's retreat.
"How dare a thief fight me!" Liang Qiuqi clenched his spear and rode his horse to kill Su Yun.
"Don't dare!" Su Yun smiled, glanced at the left and right, and the two cavalrymen dismounted the bow and shot him directly halfway.
"My life is very expensive, I can't waste it like this." He shook his head disdainfully.
Liang Qiuqi is simply dead.
Liu Xuan quickly rushed over, and it didn't take much effort to disperse the group of pro-soldiers, Zhen Fu fell off his horse, sat on the ground, grabbed his messy hair, and his eyes were blank and motionless.
"I respect you for expanding your territory and your military achievements, so I'll give you a good time!"
Liu Zhuo raised his hand and lifted Zhen Fu's head.
"Zhen Fu has been ambushed!"
He shouted loudly, the new army ran faster, and some of the generals who still had the intention of resisting also stopped thinking and fled for their lives.
The Green Forest Army pursued the water before collecting its troops and returning, and this battle killed more than 20,000 enemies and won a complete victory.
