Chapter 293: King Lu has arrived

Li Fang was defeated, 100,000 elite soldiers were annihilated 70,000, and only 30,000 remnants of the defeated generals were left in King's Landing, and King's Landing was in an uproar. This is 100,000 elite soldiers, and 70,000 were wiped out by Ji Qingchen, is the combat effectiveness of the Northern Liao army so strong? This not only made Ji Qingchen and Beiliao Tieqi's combat power in the hearts of everyone a little higher.

However, like Empress Cui and Cui Jingsheng, as well as Ji Qian and Li Muzhi, they know the truth of the Dao, when Li Fang and Ji Qingchen fought, they only put 70,000 troops in Fengyundu, leaving 30,000 foot soldiers to guard Hangzhou, and the reason why Ji Qingchen's army was able to completely annihilate Li Fang's 70,000 elite soldiers was because they were attacked by the Northern Liao Iron Cavalry and were destroyed by the Northern Liao Heavy Cavalry Devil Cavalry.

In the face of this news, Li Muzhi's face was pale, this was the cavalry he personally formed, although it had not been formed for a long time, and he had not participated in the battle, and the soldiers had not experienced the baptism of war, but in his opinion, he was also an elite soldier, and he was annihilated by Ji Qingchen's Northern Liao army, he was a little unwilling.

And Ji Qian was even more annoyed by this news, his own 100,000 army stopped Ji Qingchen from killing, he had been waiting for Ji Qingchen to be killed, or the news that he was captured back to King's Landing, but he didn't expect the result to be that his 100,000 army was annihilated by 70,000, and they didn't even touch a single hair of Ji Qingchen.

This makes Ji Qian, who has always regarded Ji Qingchen as his lifelong enemy, how can he feel better?

Only Empress Cui and Cui Jingsheng are not as depressed as Li Muzhi and Ji Qian, because they have reached an agreement with the Liguo, Xishu and Lingnan Yi tribes, the three kingdoms sent a total of 800,000 troops, 400,000 troops from the country, Xishu and Lingnan Yi tribes sent 200,000 troops, and the national railway rode south to Ningwu Pass to deal with Ningzhou Liudonglou and Ji Qingchen, Xishu sent troops to Xizhou to deal with Ji Ping, and Lingnan Yi sent troops to Yizhou Ji Hongchang, they sat in King's Landing and enjoyed their success, quickly formed a new army, and waited until the Three Kingdoms and Ji Qingchen, Ji Ping and Ji Hongchang were both defeated, Then send a large army to attack, and the fisherman will benefit.

In this way, it can not only extinguish the threat of Ji Qingchen and Ji Ping, Ji Hongchang and others, but also defeat the Three Kingdoms in one fell swoop and establish prestige for himself.

Therefore, Queen Cui and Cui Jingsheng were not very frightened by the news, and the two behaved very calmly.

"Qian'er, you have to know that victory and defeat are commonplace for soldiers to win or lose, and you can't judge the overall situation with one battle, you still have to focus your energy on forming a new army." Empress Cui said to Ji Qingchen.

Whether they can profit in the future, and when Ji Qingchen, Ji Ping, Ji Hongchang and others are defeated by the Three Kingdoms, their own side can defeat them one by one depends on the 400,000 new army formed and trained by Ji Qian, so Queen Cui attaches great importance to this new army, and she doesn't dare to let Ji Qian be careless.

"Don't worry, the queen mother, the son knows the way!" Ji Qian nodded slightly, Empress Cui and Cui Jingsheng's plan was drawn by him, and he naturally knew the importance of the new army he formed.

"General Li, has the army been recruited?" Empress Cui moved her gaze to Li Muzhi to the side and asked, "When will you leave?" ”

"Three days later!" Li Muzhi said.

He had already learned from Li Fang's letter that Ji Qingchen's troops had reached 500,000 this time, and he was not in a good mood at this time.

In fact, Li Fang only heard the first half, and the second half did not hear it, and the second half of Ji Qingchen was to ask Li Changzheng to recruit 100,000 troops in Northern Liao to go west to Western Shu.

In this way, Ji Qingchen's 500,000 army was only 400,000, which was 100,000 less than what Li Fang told Li Muzhi.

"General Li is completely relieved to go north, and the old man will definitely be personally responsible for the grain and grass of the army and the baggage, and there will be no problems." Cui Jingsheng saw Li Muzhi's brows furrowed, so he spoke. Although he didn't know how to march and fight, he also knew the truth that the soldiers and horses of the road did not move the grain and grass first. Now that Li Muzhi's army is properly organized, he has to deal with Ji Qingchen in the north, and he thinks that the only thing Li Muzhi is worried about is the supply of grain and grass, so he will say so.

Of course, Cui Jingsheng and Empress Cui also hoped that Li Muzhi could defeat Ji Qingchen, so that they could deal with the three kings more calmly.

Thinking of the Three Kings, Empress Cui suddenly asked Cui Jingsheng, "I don't know where Ji Wen's army has gone?" ”

"I stepped into King's Landing a few days ago, and now I'm afraid I'm about to arrive in King's Landing." Cui Jingsheng said worriedly. He is very aware of the fears of Ji Wen's army, not only is the commander of the army Xu Zizhang from Northern Liao, but the 100,000 elite cavalry is even more like Northern Liao, not only there are light cavalry who are good at running, but also heavy cavalry who focus on charging and breaking the formation. This army of 100,000 is an absolute and terrifying existence.

"How fast did you come?" Empress Cui sighed and said, "Bai Jin is sitting in King's Landing City, can he stop Ji Wen from transferring these 100,000 troops into King's Landing City?" ”

Because after Li Muzhi left, he would transfer 50,000 horses out of the 100,000 Xiao cavalry guards outside the city, and 50,000 horses from the 100,000 Yulin cavalry in the city.

Therefore, in this way, there are 50,000 horses after Ji Qian in King's Landing, and there are only 50,000 horses outside the city, which is only 40,000 more than the 60,000 horses of the three kings outside the city, and if Ji Wen's army arrives in King's Landing City and transfers 100,000 troops into the city, they will be suppressed by the three kings at that time.

"Don't worry! Bai Jin would not let Ji Wen transfer an army of 100,000 into King's Landing. Cui Jingsheng said, paused again, and continued, "Even if they have 160,000 troops outside the city, and we only have 100,000, we still have 400,000 elite soldiers that are about to be formed, and the new army is not stronger than them in combat compared to them, but it still has an advantage." ”

"Yes!" Empress Cui nodded, feeling that what Cui Jingsheng said was very right, so she moved her eyes to Li Muzhi, "Three days later, the mourning family will practice for General Li!" ”

"Thank you, Niangniangβ€”" Li Muzhi said to Empress Cui.

The four of them chatted for a while, discussing how to deal with the three kings, and how to find a way to make Ji Qian ascend the throne as emperor as soon as possible, and Li Muzhi, Cui Jingsheng, and Ji Qian left the queen's bedroom.

Just when Queen Cui and the four of them were discussing, in Ji Hongchang's Ning Wang's Mansion, Ji Qingchen and Ji Ping, Ji Ying, Ji Yong, Ji Man and others were also discussing.

The content of their discussion was not the battle of Fengyundu, but the issue of the four feudal kings divided by Empress Cui.

"Xining Prefecture, Xizhou and Yi are facing the Xishu and Lingnan Yi people, and now it is at the time of civil strife and turmoil in Dayan, Xishu and Lingnan Yi people will not let go of such an opportunity, and they may send troops to occupy these three states, and at this time, Queen Cui will seal the three of us to these three states to become vassals, it is really ill-intentioned!" It was Ji Ying, the fifth prince, who was named the king of Pingnan by Empress Cui, and he was in Yizhou, facing the Lingnan Yi clan, which was known for its ferocity.

"But the holy decree has been issued, and let us leave for the domain as soon as possible, what else can we do?" Ji Yong, the sixth prince, sighed and said, he was named the king of Xining by Empress Cui, and he was in Xining Prefecture, facing Xishu, who was also suspicious of Dayan.

Among the three newly promoted kings, only the seventh prince Ji Man did not complain, did not complain, just sat quietly on the side and did not speak.

"Old Seven, you have been sealed to Xizhou, Xizhou is the door to defend Xishu, your pressure is no less than that of the fifth brother, why do you look confident now? Why, aren't you afraid of the Xishu army invading Xizhou at all? The sixth prince Ji Yong asked.

The Seventh Prince, Ji Man, just smiled faintly, thought about it, and then said to everyone, "Brothers, I really don't worry that Xizhou can't hold it. ”

"What?" Pingnan Wang Jiying asked in surprise.

"What do you say? Seventh, you didn't take the wrong medicine, right? Xining Wang Ji Yong also asked puzzled.

And Ji Ping and Ji Hongchang on the side glanced at Ji Man, the seventh prince who looked very determined, and asked, "Old Seven, what are you hiding from us?" Tell me about it? ”

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I received a message from the ninth brother the day before yesterday, he said that I went to Xizhou this time to take up the domain, and I might encounter the invasion of Xizhou by the Xishu army, and he said that if I agreed, he would mobilize 100,000 Northern Liao elite cavalry for me to guard Xizhou." The Seventh Prince Ji Man said in a calm tone.

"You-"

"Old Nine, he-"

"How did you reply to him?" Ji Hongchang asked, he also couldn't believe that Ji Qingchen would do this, but he also didn't know what Ji Qingchen was doing this for?

"I have promised the kindness of my ninth brother." The Seventh Prince Ji said apologetically, "In a few days, the ninth brother will send Li Changzheng to personally lead 100,000 Northern Liao elite cavalry to accompany me into Xizhou, with these 100,000 Northern Liao elite cavalry, plus some of the original soldiers in Xizhou, that is, in the face of the hundreds of thousands of troops invaded Xizhou by Western Shu, we also have the strength to fight." ”

"Heyβ€”"

"I didn't expect that!"

"Lao Jiu is really willing-"

The ones who spoke were the fifth prince Ji Ying and the sixth prince Ji Yong, and the second prince Ji Ping. The sigh of the fifth prince Ji Ying Ji Man's life was good to get Ji Qingchen's help, the sixth prince Ji Yong was surprised that Ji Qingchen would help Ji Man, as for the second prince Ji Ping, he was surprised by Ji Qingchen's generosity, this shot was 100,000 fine horses, and he also sent Li Changzheng such a strong general, which is not something that others can do.

"For Lao Jiu, sending 100,000 troops to Lao Qi is really no loss, which can be seen from this battle of Fengyundu." Ji Hongchang said lightly, "Li Fang's 100,000 elite soldiers were formed together with our three new armies three years ago, and the combat effectiveness of this new army is much inferior to that of the fourth cavalry, but compared with our new army, the combat effectiveness is comparable. But such an elite army was defeated by Lao Jiu in Fengyundu, and it completely annihilated 70,000 horses. This is enough to see the combat effectiveness of Lao Jiubei's Liao Iron Cavalry, and it is not difficult to understand why Lao Jiu dared to send Lao 700,000 elite cavalry. ”

"One more point-" Ji Hongchang said this, paused and said, "Li Changzheng is Lao Jiu's henchman general, but Lao Jiu is facing Li Muzhi this time, Li Changzheng's grandfather, and it is very cruel to let Li Changzheng and Li Muzhi's ancestor and grandson meet on the battlefield, so Lao Jiu will take this opportunity to give Li Changzheng 100,000 troops to let him guard Xizhou." ”

"Well, the fourth brother's analysis is good!" Ji Ping nodded slightly.

"I didn't expect there to be such a layer?" Ji Man, the seventh prince on the side, said that when he received the news from Ji Qingchen and was about to lend 100,000 troops, he agreed without hesitation, in addition to trusting Ji Qingchen, he was a prince who had no desire for power, and he didn't care that the power of Xizhou fell into the hands of Ji Qingchen, so he would behave very calmly, but he didn't expect that there were so many things to say in addition to borrowing troops, but he was very surprised.

"Fourth brother is coming back soon!" Just as the ministers were silent, the sixth prince of Xining asked.

"Soon, we'll be in King's Landing in these two days!" Ji Ping said, and as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a captain walk into the main hall and report to Ji Hongchang, "Your Highness, I just got the news that His Royal Highness King Lu's army has reached the Bianqiao Ferry, and it will reach the outside of King's Landing in the afternoon." ”

"Really β€”β€”?"

"Message confirmed?" Ji Hongchang asked the captain. During this time, because they did not have many soldiers and horses in their hands, they were pressed to death by Queen Cui, Cui Jingsheng and Ji Qian. Now that Ji Wen's 100,000 army has arrived in King's Landing, they are no longer overstretched in terms of troops, but they can fight with Queen Cui, Cui Jingsheng and Ji Qian well.

"Really!" The lieutenant replied in the affirmative.

After receiving the captain's affirmative answer, everyone in the hall was very excited, and they heard Ji Ping say, "This brother, why don't we go out of the city to meet the fourth brother!" You can take a look at the military appearance of the fourth brother and 100,000 elite horsemen by the way, what do you think? ”

As soon as the second prince Ji Ping's words fell, he was approved by everyone, and everyone happily left King Ning's Mansion and came to the outside of the King's Landing.
