Chapter 160: The Battle of Jishui Ended
Li Cunhuan opened his mouth and said: "It's not just amazing! Zhu Wen was able to make a career in Xuanwu, the place of the four wars, because he relied on Jingxiang, let his soldiers pretend to defect, and then went to the imperial court, crusaded against the Quartet in the name of righteousness, and collected soldiers and horses from all over the country, so that he had today's achievements. Wang Fa is nicknamed 'Bole', and Jingxiang was also recommended to Zhu Wen by him. And Xie Tong is even more amazing, when Zhu Wen betrayed Huang Chao and joined the Tang Dynasty, it was this Xie Tong's strategy. Xie Tong is known for being good at observing the general trend of the world. If these three people are detained, it will be like gouging out Zhu Wen's eyes and cutting off his nose and eyes. ”
"What else does the general want, the last general is willing to personally lead troops to arrest these three people! Don't let anyone go! Gao Siji's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he encouraged on the side.
Li Cunhuan was also very moved when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he shook his head and said: "Forget it, if you do this, it will be equivalent to fighting with Zhu Wen, and it will also cause great harm to my reputation, forget it!" ”
"The general is right, Zhu Wen is still strong now, and we will only be cheaper with him Li Keyong and Yang Xingmi." Zhou Dewei lifted the cloth door of the tent, walked in, and spoke.
"Thank you for your hard work, Zhenyuan! How many people are killed or wounded in today's fighting? Li Cunhuan asked with a gloomy face. Although he knew that war would kill people, Li Cunhuan had no way to ignore all this. It's as if a person can face death calmly, but there is no way to let go of it.
Zhou Dewei nodded, and said in a somewhat gloomy tone: "The broken army has suffered heavy casualties, 300 people were killed in battle, more than 700 people were injured, and it is estimated that about 200 people need to retire. The loyal and filial piety army suffered more than 300 casualties. The Flying Tiger Army suffered a lot of casualties, nearly 2,000 people, General, do you want to replenish the number of people in the Flying Tiger Army? ”
Li Cunhuan nodded when he heard this, and said, "Let the eldest brother recruit soldiers, and allocate another three hundred sets of half-body plate armor for cavalry to him." What is the number of casualties in Hakuba? ”
Zhou Dewei said: "The white horse is still relatively powerful, and the cavalry has always suffered heavy casualties in battle, and they are still new soldiers, with more than 1,000 casualties, of which more than 400 have been determined to have died in battle. But after the experience of the battlefield, Bai Ma Yicong has become a little more fierce. ”
Li Cunhuan nodded, pondered for a moment and said, "Go back and discuss the issue of the military system, I found several problems in today's battle." The casualties of the soldiers are too great, and it is necessary to discuss how to arrange the wounded and disabled, as well as how to arrange their families for the dead in battle. ”
Zhou Dewei smiled indifferently, and didn't say anything, for these advanced concepts, even Zhou Dewei was limited by this era. Gao Siji was even more dazed.
Seeing Zhou Dewei and Gao Siji's expressions, Li Cunhuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Let's go to Zhu Wen now to settle accounts, paralyzed!" I will ask for seven or eight hundred thousand yuan from Zhu Wen this time no matter what! ”
Gao Siji and Zhou Dewei laughed when they heard this, and Jing Xiang and the others, who were waiting for Li Cunhuan in the tent, couldn't help but shiver.
…………
"General!" Seeing Li Cunhuan come in, more than a dozen pro-soldiers on both sides of the tent said in unison.
Li Cunhuan showed a gentle smile and nodded at both sides.
"General!" This time it was Jing Xiang and others who shouted, and Jing Xiang was still holding a volume of documents in his hand, which was probably the document given to him by Zhu Wen's butcher.
"Stand down!" Li Cunhuan waved his hand and commanded the soldiers on both sides.
"Yes!" The soldiers on both sides responded in unison, walked out in small steps, and looked at the disciplined soldiers, Jing Xiang and the others couldn't help but change their faces slightly.
"Sit!" Li Cunhuan made a gesture of invitation to the chairs on both sides, and sat down on the tiger skin chair on the main seat by himself.
The guest sat down, and Li Cunhuan asked directly, "What does Zhu Wen have to say?" ”
Jing Xiang's face couldn't help but change slightly when he heard this, and one of the generals beside him couldn't help but want to stand up, but Jing Xiang immediately glared at the other party, making the general sit down unwillingly.
Li Cunhuan was still smiling, as if he didn't care about calling Zhu Wen's name to stimulate the other party.
"Please be cautious!" Jing Xiang's face was slightly gloomy and said.
"Caution?" Li Cunhuan put away the smile on his face, and there was a sarcasm in his eyes, "Be cautious, what can you say carefully?" I didn't call him Zhu Butcher or 'swine fever', and I already counted him as a face! Li Cunhuan's accentuated colloquialism on the word Zhu Wen, Jing Xiang and others are all smart people, and they know the meaning of Li Cunhuan's words after a little pondering.
Everyone's faces changed drastically, and their eyes flashed with indignation. Jing Xiang's face changed, but he quickly became very calm, and said with a smile: "How to call it is the choice of the general." ”
Li Cunhuan's eyes couldn't help flashing a touch of admiration, no wonder Zhu Wen was so important to Jing Xiang, this person was too calm. Even though he was angry and angry in his heart, he was still very calm.
Li Cunhuan's method of trying to provoke his opponent failed, and Li Cunhuan couldn't help but be a little discouraged. In the discussion with Jing Xiang below, I couldn't help but be slightly at a disadvantage.
However, Li Cunhuan quickly seized an opportunity, that is, the news that Li Keyong besieged Luoyang. He no longer goes toe-to-toe with Jing Xiang. started to talk to Jing Xiang, Jing Xiang was very calm at first, but he couldn't withstand the pressure the next day.
In the end, Zhu Wen and Li Cunhuan formed an alliance by the Jishui River, and Li Cunhuan recognized Emperor Kangning as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and of course also recognized Emperor Qianning as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, so it can be said that Li Cunhuan's move was a peaceful mud. Zhu Wen 'rewarded' Li Cunhuan with 100,000 horses of cloth and 300,000 yuan. Needless to say, this reward is actually just in the name of Zhu Wen in order to save face, and Li Cunhuan is too lazy to drink Zhu Wen to fight for this name.
In addition, Zhu Wen had to cede Mizhou (now Shandong Prefecture, that is, the area west of Qingdao) to Wang Shifan. It greatly consolidated Wang Shifan's strength in Qingzhou. However, Li Cunhuan didn't do this cheaply for Wang Shifan, he got Dizhou from Wang Shifan, and he had to compensate Wang Shifan, otherwise how could Wang Shifan be willing to be his little brother.
Then there was the treaty, to the effect that the two sides exchanged trade and coexisted peacefully, and Zhu Wen was not allowed to attack Li Cunhuan and Wang Shifan in any name for three years, and Li Cunhuan and Wang Shifan were not allowed to attack Zhu Wen in any way.
So a mighty battle of Jishui came to an end. Zhu Wen hurriedly led the troops back, and he still had to fight with Li Ke.
