Chapter 50: Vortex Temptation
The reason why Zhao Xu was shocked was that he didn't care about the oath, but the people of this era attached great importance to the oath. (.)
The oath of being able to say the five thunders in the sky is already very heavy, and the ancients believed in ghosts and gods very much, which means that what they said will definitely be done.
Zhao Xu's eyes were also a little moist, he used to just treat these two as ordinary subordinates, and he didn't expect that these two people were like this to himself.
personally helped these two people up and called them brothers, and since then, these two people have become more heartfelt to Zhao Xu.
Li Chongjin, who was sitting in the tent, was still angry;
"Mom, why didn't I kill you last time, your kid's life is really big, gunpowder can't kill you, there will be a chance in the future."
Li Chongjin's eyes were full of ruthlessness, fortunately Zhao Xu was not here at this time, otherwise he would definitely not be able to help but kill Li Chongjin on the spot.
Zhao Xu didn't know that it was Li Chongjin who wanted to kill him, and at that time he was still wondering why gunpowder, which was only available in the army, appeared on his way home.
Chai Rong had already arrived in Yongning Town and knew the news of Zhengyang's victory, but he still removed Li Gu from his position.
Li Chongjin was appointed as the capital of the Huainan Thousand Army Battalion, and in fact, he replaced Li Gu's position.
Li Gu was assigned by Chai Rong to come out of Shouzhou for related matters, which was actually an idle position, because Shouzhou was still the city of the Southern Tang Dynasty.
In other words, there is no Shouzhou on the administrative territory of the Great Zhou, which is a punishment in disguise, and Li Gu is also a smart person, knowing the emperor's meaning, and there is no dissatisfaction.
Chai Rong ordered the soldiers besieging Shouzhou to surround Shouzhou again, and he himself came to the city of Shouzhou.
Chai Rong set up camp on the south side of the river. The water is also used as fertilizer water, also called the river of the river, and its source comes from the general ridge between Feixi and Shou County.
It is divided into two branches: those who flow to the northwest, through 200 miles, go out of Shou County and enter the Huai River; Those who flow to the southeast are injected into Chaohu Lake.
There is a reason why Chai Rong chose to camp here, Chai Rong looked at the constantly flowing water of the river, his thoughts drifted into the distance, and suddenly he turned around:
"Did you know there was a war here? What do you think is the result of me and Da Zhou this time? ”
Everyone knows that their emperor is talking about the Battle of Weishui.
The Battle of Weishui, which took place in 383 AD, was a war launched during the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the former Qin, a unified regime in the north.
The former Qin, who unified the north, was not satisfied with the existing territory, and in order to unify the world, he wanted to eliminate the Eastern Jin Dynasty and then dominate the world.
So the former Qin Emperor Fu Jianqiang conscripted the people of all ethnic groups in the area under his rule, claiming that 800,000 troops had sent troops to attack Jin.
The two sides fought at the foot of the first Qin, and in the end, the Eastern Jin Dynasty defeated the more than 800,000 former Qin troops with only 80,000 troops under the command of the famous minister Xie An.
The unexpected result was that the absolute superiority of the former Qin was defeated by the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the country also declined and perished, and the northern ethnic groups broke away from the rule of the former Qin and established sixteen small states successively.
The Eastern Jin Dynasty took advantage of this Northern Expedition to advance the border line of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Yellow River, and there was no foreign invasion in the Eastern Jin Dynasty for decades afterward.
It is said that the impact of this battle on the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the former Qin Dynasty was very large. Now the emperor asks like this, so is he comparing himself to Fu Jian of the former Qin or Xie An of the Eastern Jin Dynasty?
According to the two sides of the Battle of Weishui, our Great Zhou attacked the Southern Tang Dynasty in order to unify the great cause, which is the former Qin, and the Southern Tang Dynasty is like the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
But the outcome of the war ...... This is not yet a big battle, the emperor asked everyone this question, who would dare to answer.
The answer is not good, and the emperor has not killed the sacrificial flag, and no one dared to speak for a while, only the sound of gurgling water.
Zhao Kuangyin saw that no one spoke, and he took a step forward, and everyone said that this was really a stunned young man.
Although you are the emperor's favorite general and brother of the worshipper, this matter cannot be talked about nonsense, you just wait to be reprimanded by His Majesty.
It's common to human nature that there are people who want to see other people's jokes at all times, no matter where they are. [.A lot of good novels]
But in the end, they failed, and the emperor not only did not blame her, but rewarded him, and they did not see Zhao Kuangyin's jokes.
"Your Majesty is not Fu Jian, Your Majesty is the monarch of Shengming, there is an emperor in the five generations who can compare to Your Majesty, Your Majesty loves the people like a son, and everyone supports him, how can he be compared to the former Qin Fujian who has no vision."
Zhao Kuangyin saw that Chai Rong did not have any different colors before continuing:
"Besides, the Southern Tang Dynasty is not the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the Southern Tang Dynasty does not have Xie An's talent, so Your Majesty will definitely be able to defeat the Southern Tang Dynasty in Weishui and pave the way for Your Majesty to dominate the world."
What kind of sycophant knows that it is a sycophant who is photographed, but it is still very useful, which is what Zhao Kuangyin said.
As an emperor, the most important thing is the world, you see Lao Zhao speak, although it is a compliment, but the emperor is very useful.
Chai Rong laughed after hearing this, patted Zhao Kuangyin on the shoulder, and returned to the big tent in the army with him.
At this time, the people below reported that there were tens of thousands of people cruising on the Huai River in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and they were stationed at the foot of Tu Mountain.
You are stationed at the foot of Tu Mountain, right under my nose, what if you come to attack me when I attack Shouzhou?
Besides, Tushan, Chuzhou and Shouzhou formed a corner, once they attacked Da Zhou at the same time, Da Zhou was really dumplings.
Chai Rong can't stand it, he must pull out this nail, who will he send? No one wants to send troops personally.
Why, because there are not many soldiers and horses that can be mobilized at this time. No one dares to lead the troops easily, and it is another matter if they can't win, but if they can't win, they will damage their prestige.
At this time, Zhao Kuangyin stepped forward with something, and he only had 2,000 forbidden troops at his disposal, which meant that he had to use 2,000 men and horses to meet the tens of thousands of Southern Tang troops.
Everyone is not optimistic about Zhao Kuangyin, only Zhao Kuangyin thinks in his heart that he must win, which is also a way to prove himself.
Zhao Kuangyin led the troops to set off, and Zhao Xu, who was still outside Shouzhou City, heard that his father only led 2,000 men, so he went to meet the tens of thousands of horses in Tushan.
He wasn't worried, he knew that history Haihua was developing according to its original trajectory, and Zhao Kuangyin would definitely be able to win.
Liu Hongqing and Dong Xuanye also persuaded Zhao Xu:
"My lord, Lord Zhao led such a small number of soldiers and horses to Tushan, can it be done, besides, it is still a long-distance attack, or we will also rush there, the emperor will not blame us?"
"It's okay, my father will definitely be able to win this time, our forbidden army is the emperor's pro-army, and we must not act without the emperor's order."
Zhao Xu said with a smile.
"Just now I received an edict from His Majesty, ordering us to feel the water and be on standby, so we are going to split and leave."
After saying that, he took the two of them to inform the troops, and they were pulled.
Here, Zhao Kuangyin set off from the direction of Shouzhou and went straight to Tushan in the northeast, and the two thousand forbidden troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty marched towards Tushan with high morale.
But 2,000 men and horses against tens of thousands of men and horses, it is not enough for one forbidden army to kill ten, and not everyone in the forbidden army can be ten with one.
Zhao Kuangyin also knows about this, although he doesn't have many books, but he is familiar with the art of war.
These are not what he learned in the military books, but what he himself learned in actual combat, and he will never do anything hard.
It is not only the number of people who fight in the war, but more importantly, it is necessary to have resourcefulness, Zhao Kuangyin has become an excellent general after several years of training. He decided to win by odds.
Tu Mountain, also known as when Tu Mountain, commonly known as East Mountain, is the location of the ancient Tu Mountain country, it is said that it was originally a mountain, Dayu controlled the water to split the mountain into two, let the Huai River water divert, become from south to north.
It is also the place where Dayu married his wife and the princes of the first conference. Its mountain is located in the western suburbs of Bengbu City, Anhui Province, on the east bank of the Huai River, and faces Jingshan across the river.
It can also be said that it is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Zhao Kuangyin decided to set up an ambush in a place called Vortex in the southwest of Tushan.
After some investigation, he found that this place was an excellent ambush place, so Zhao Kuangyin decided to fight a battle here.
So he only sent more than 100 forbidden troops to Tushan Nantang's army to challenge, which was a bit like eggs touching stones.
When the Southern Tang Army saw that the Great Zhou Army with 100 people immediately sent 100 people to meet the battle, but it was defeated by the Zhou army.
There was no way to send more soldiers to besiege the Zhou army, but as soon as the Zhou army saw that there were so many people, they immediately ran away.
While running, they also looked back at the movements of the Tang army, and if the Tang army was no longer chasing, they immediately turned back and continued to harass the Tang army.
In this way, after a day and night of harassment, Tang Jun was also annoyed by the harassment, and the capital prisoner in Tushan was He Yanxi, and he couldn't sit still.
walked out of the camp gate, put on the battle armor, stepped on the war horse, and must kill all these Zhou troops, so he didn't sleep all night.
He Yanxi was really angry, and it didn't matter if there was a conspiracy or not, maybe he had just woken up, and he chased him out without any hesitation.
There were more than 10,000 men and horses behind, and the mighty Tang army could overwhelm these Zhou troops in an instant.
But as soon as Zhou Jun saw this, he immediately ran away, and this time Nantang was chasing after him without a trace of relaxation.
And Zhou Jun ran for a hundred years and shouted in horror:
"There is an ambush in front of us, do you dare to come, I know that you don't dare hahaha." One of Zhou Jun turned around and shouted, still grimacing.
If He Yanxi could still keep a clear mind in normal times, now his brain is clouded.
didn't care about the reminder that the Zhou army thought it was, and led more than 10,000 Tang soldiers to chase after him, and also killed several Zhou soldiers.
But the Zhou army in front was still running desperately, and He Yanxi was determined to catch these guys and break their bodies into pieces.
At this time, Zhou Jun was also out of breath when he was chasing, but they showed a victorious smile, and there was a vortex in front of them, so they kicked the horse's belly a few times.
The war horse under the crotch, with a roar, ran forward quickly, and entered the ambush circle of the vortex in front, where is the elaborate feast prepared by Da Zhou for Nantang.
