Chapter 555: The Battle of the Ages (5)
Following Liao Yun, Yang Ye also set off with an army of 50,000, and his task was to go to the east of Kaiyuan to resist the imperial army in the east for two months!
This is not an easy job, the strength of Dongjiang is extraordinary, and hundreds of thousands of troops have come this time, and Yang Ye only has 50,000 in his hands, and he wants hundreds of thousands in the imperial capital, and the pressure is huge. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, Yang Ye was not afraid, he had seen clearly with Ling Feng over the years, Ling Feng would not die without help, if he was really in trouble, Kai Yuan would definitely come to reinforcements, so as long as he did his job, he didn't have to think too much.
Ling Feng sacrificed to the sky, the earth, and the ancestors in Kaiyuan, and swore to set off, with Zhang Wu as the vanguard, Han Ziyu as the military advisor, and Ling Feng personally took charge of the army, leading Chu Jun, Zhang Ming, and Li Yan, a total of 130,000 people, to go straight to the imperial capital.
Ling Feng's army, the number of its soldiers is indeed not much, let alone attacking Yang Xiong, even the Zayadu army stationed in the imperial capital is not allowed, you must know that there are still 200,000 people in the imperial capital, and Ling Feng is only 135,000, although they are all elites, but the number is too small.
For a while, in addition to Zhang Wu, Chu Jun, Li Yan, and Zhang Ming were all a little worried, with such a few people, can they attack the imperial capital? Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you capture it, can you fight Zayadu inside? By the time you take it, the number of soldiers has been greatly reduced, and the disparity in strength between the two armies will be even greater.
However, although they were worried, the three of them did not dare to say it.
After walking more than 400 miles to the west, he finally arrived at the Kaiyuan border three days later, which means the eastern boundary of the imperial capital.
Further back, it is the territory of Zayadu, the army under Yang Xiong, with 200,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Zayadu, of course, these 200,000 soldiers and horses are in the imperial capital at the moment and have not come out.
But after all, the imperial capital is the ancient capital of the previous year, and each city is unusually strong and steep, if the enemy is very stubborn and resists to the end, it will take a lot of effort.
After setting up camp on the border of the imperial capital, Ling Feng sent three teams of cavalry out of the city and ran towards the three county towns in front.
But it's not to fight, because it's getting late now, and there aren't many people sent, only hundreds.
After sending out the soldiers, they set up camp to rest and bury the pot to cook.
That night, nothing special happened, the camp was well defended, there was no enemy attack, let alone the enemy army, within a radius of a thousand miles, the enemy army would not exceed 20,000, so there would be no danger.
It wasn't until noon the next day that the cavalry sent back, and the captains of the three waves of cavalry entered the camp one after another and went to Ling Feng's big tent to report to the Chinese army.
During the war of the Chinese army, Han Ziyu and Qin Liang have been here, and Ling Feng is naturally there.
In fact, Han Ziyu didn't go back to his camp tent at all, he could be regarded as accompanying Ling Feng for a night, as for Qin Liang, although the weather was still a little cold now, he still had to take on the heavy responsibility of guarding the camp, standing outside the military tent, and protecting Ling Feng's Chinese army tent.
When the three captains arrived together, Ling Feng and Han Ziyu both flipped up.
"Let them in."
Ling Feng said casually. In the meantime, get ready to wash.
Soon after Qin Liang went out, three lieutenants walked in.
Ling Feng washed his face and rinsed his mouth, and didn't bother to pay attention to the three of them, Han Ziyu looked at it and asked on his behalf.
Han Ziyu looked at the three of them and said, "How is it?" ”
A lieutenant standing in front of him arched his hand and said: "Yu Jun Division, the last general arrived in Zhongliang County at the third watch last night, and the county commander of Zhongliang County expressed his willingness to surrender, as long as the lord's army arrived, they would go out of the city to surrender." ”
"What about you?"
Han Ziyu nodded and looked at the other one.
"Yu Jun Division, the last general will go to Zhongtian County, and the county order of Zhongtian County said that it also intended to surrender."
Han Ziyu looked at the last person: "What about you?" Is it the same? ”
"Yes, the military division, the county commander of Zhonggu County is also willing to surrender."
Han Ziyu waved his hand: "Okay, I know, you guys go first." ”
"No."
The three of them arched their hands at the same time, turned and retreated.
After asking, Han Ziyu arched his hand and asked, "Lord, did you hear that?" ”
"I heard, the three counties are willing to surrender, in fact, it is all in my expectation, he has no other way out but to descend, does he want to die? There is no one in the world who is not afraid of death. ”
Han Ziyu smiled and said: "What the lord said is that if it is a county, it is okay to hold on for three or two days, and a county does not have the capital to compete with us, and it is helpless to surrender." ”
After Ling Feng finished washing, he came to the upper seat and sat down, and said: "Next, we are going to attack the imperial capital, I mean, there is no need to seize one city and one pool, the 135,000 army will go straight to the imperial capital, if there are enemy troops along the way to surrender, we will accept it, if not, let's not bother to go to the conquest, as long as the imperial capital is captured, these small counties are all trivial, and there is only one way to surrender." ”
What Ling Feng said was exactly what Han Ziyu thought, and Han Ziyu smiled: "What the lord said is very true, and Ziyu agrees." ”
"Hehe... My lord, I've been looking forward to seeing the power of the thunderbolt, and this is a chance, so don't disappoint. This time the crusade against the imperial capital depends on it. ”
Han Ziyu sat on the seat below, flicked his sleeves, and took a sip of the tea on the desk.
Ling Feng laughed, he was quite confident about the thunderbolt.
Ling Feng said with a smile: "I can tell you that the thunderbolt will definitely not disappoint you, and we now have enough ammunition and can use it unlimitedly, not to mention a small imperial capital, even if it is ten, it will be bulldozed for him." ”
"Do you think I'm a little arrogant when I say that?"
Han Ziyu was stunned for a moment, and waved his hand again and again: "No, no, no, what the lord said is reasonable, I saw a thunderbolt car three years ago, it is really powerful, I am just worried about the thick walls of the imperial capital, so I have this question." ”
"Report..."
Just as Ling Feng and Han Ziyu were talking, a soldier who quickly ran in from outside to report the news: "Report... The lord of the court, the front-line military newspaper. ”
As he spoke, the soldier took out a letter from his bosom and held it above his head.
Han Ziyu took the fold and presented it directly to Ling Feng.
Opening the fold, Ling Feng stared at the fold with his eyes, as if it had taken root, and after a while, Ling Feng suddenly burst out laughing, looking like crazy.
"Hahaha....!"
"Lord, what is the matter?"
Han Ziyu was taken aback and hurriedly asked.
Ling Feng looked at the soldier who was delivering the message and smiled, "Go down and receive the reward, the bounty is fifty." ”
"Thank you, thank you..."
The soldier who delivered the message was grateful, and then left the tent with great emotion.
Fifty gold, for an ordinary soldier, it can be said that he can't earn it in a few lifetimes.
And now, just because he was ordered to deliver a letter, just because of Ling Feng's words, the wealth of several lifetimes has been in hand.
With excitement, the soldier went farther and farther away and disappeared into the distance.
In the big tent, Ling Feng was still laughing.
Han Ziyu didn't know why, but he also laughed and asked, "Lord, what is the matter, you are so happy, is it good news from the front line?" Is it Yu Qinglong's? ”
"Huh... How do you know? ”
Ling Feng was taken aback, the battle report in his hand was indeed Yu Qinglong's, and Yu Qinglong won a big victory in the Yangtze River. (To be continued.) )
