Chapter 357: Mo Shanghua Blooms and Looks Forward to the Return of the King (9)

Both the Liang and Chu states have always been world enemies. Liang is located in the north of the Chu State and is a real land of northern cold. Most of the country is livestock, and a small part of the southern part of the state near Chu is agriculture. Because it is located in a barren place, every year the Liang State will send troops to harass the border areas of Qin and Chu in the year of great disasters and droughts.

Most of the Liang attacks were in the late autumn and early winter, and every time they looted, they retreated back to the country, so Qin and Chu harassed them very much, but they were really not as good as the cavalry troops of the Liang State, and sighed.

Since last year, after Chu Huotian quelled the rebellion of Baiyi in southern Xinjiang, he specially sent Su Yanqing, a "general and military king", to defend the north. Su Yanqing really lived up to expectations, and repelled the attack of Liang State, and after several stone failures of Liang State, Emperor Liang was unwilling, waved 100,000 troops, raised troops south, and attacked in the area of Anjun.

Su Yanqing relied on the natural danger of Ancheng, and after nine months of dealing with it, when the people of Liang were tired and tired, and the food and grass were scarce, he launched the last decisive battle, which the history of Chu called the "Battle of Ancheng".

In this war, Su Yanqing first used heavy cavalry to fight against the heavy cavalry of Liang State, and then outflanked it with light cavalry "Xiaoyun Cavalry", interrupting Liang State's follow-up rescue from behind, and finally severely damaged Liang State's attacking army.

In this battle, more than 25,000 Liang people were killed, and about 10,000 people were wounded and captured.

Although Chu's Anjun is an inconspicuous small county, it is called "the throat of Chu". Its terrain is steep, and it is a natural danger to rely on the mountain, and it naturally forms a mountain barrier in the face of Liang State. And after Anjun, it is a horse and Pingchuan, and there is no natural danger to rely on.

Chu had built a tall city wall fortification that stretched for hundreds of miles, and the small dilapidated Ancheng became the center point of this hundred miles of city wall fortifications. It can be said that Anseong is a battleground for the soldiers of the two countries.

And this time, Liang Guo's army defeated Ancheng, and he had to sign a peace treaty between the two countries in this shameful place.

……

"General Su and the army are really powerful, killing more than 25,000 enemies, capturing about 10,000 people, and killing more than wounded. Tsk......"

On the high city tower, Zha Sanshao looked at the plains in front of him, and the mountains on both sides were ten thousand, and his heart couldn't help but stir up the ambition of a hot-blooded man.

He glanced at Su Yanqing, who was silent, but saw that his eyes were shining, his spirit was shining, like the most astute tiger, looking at the surrounding city defense layout, not caring at all about this desolate and somewhat tragic scenery.

The silver armor never left his body, and his slightly dark face was a touch of contemplation and calmness, and his dark eyes were not shocked, only looking at the long yellow sand belt under the city wall. One can imagine how many iron hooves and how many soldiers' messy footsteps trampled under this city wall during the long years of war and counteroffensive, trampling the originally green grass into a grassless land.

In order to prevent the enemy from ambushing, the forests on both sides were also cut down.

Zha San rarely saw that he didn't react, and sighed with a smile: "General Su and the army are really powerful, this time General Su and the army are victorious, and our Chu State and Liang State have more bargaining chips." This time the prime minister is also full of confidence. ”

Su Yanqing said lightly: "Xiangye has won the award, this is the result of my Dachu soldiers fighting bravely to kill the enemy." Kill 10,000 enemies and lose 3,000 yourself. The...... It will not be easy for our army to win. ”

Zha Sanshao let out a long "oh", glanced at him with slightly narrowed phoenix eyes, and suddenly asked, "How many men and horses have General Su and the army lost this time?" Even though he knew it, he couldn't help but want to ask him, maybe he just wanted to see if there was pain in his eyes, or if he continued to be as quiet as stagnant water.

"More than 4,000 heavy cavalry were wounded, more than 3,000 light cavalry were killed or wounded, and more than 1,200 infantry." Su Yanqing said in a deep voice. The rolling yellow sand in front of him buried the blood of many commanders, and even in this wind, it seemed that you could hear the sound of the sword intersecting and the roaring of men and horses.

The hand that clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist turned white, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, looking at the battlefield after a hundred battles.

seemed to be infected with his heaviness, and Zha Sanshao also looked at the majesty of this pass and the bloody battle behind him with a rare solemn face.

"Xiangye, generals, soldiers, it's time to go to dinner." Qian Yancui stood quietly behind them, speaking gently, with a decent appearance, simple but not shabby. With the reserved smile characteristic of your lady, she invited the two of them to the table.

Cha Sanshao swept Su Yanqing's face, only to see him smile faintly, and after nodding to Qian Yancui, he said to Cha Sanshao: "Cha Xiangye let's have a light meal together." Uchiko's craftsmanship is not bad. ”

Qian Yancui's face turned red, and she avoided them slightly with shyness, and after they walked over, she followed behind Su Yanqing unhurriedly and said with a smile: "Xiangye don't dislike the concubine after eating, and don't do well with the concubine." ”

Zha San rarely saw the two of them looking calm, and only then did he smile a little in his heart, and said with a light smile: "The generals and military wives show off their wisdom, and the dishes they make must be very delicious." This is a good day of good fortune. ”

Qian Yancui saw that he was smiling and amiable, not as strange as the rumors, and after thinking about it, he asked in a low voice: "Is it customary for Xiangye to live in Ancheng?" I don't know when this will be completed. Carrying a heart is always unstable. ”

Cha Sanshao smiled slightly, glanced at Su Yanqing with a little meaning, and said, "How can you be unstable?" With the Su generals and the army here, all major events can be stable, besides...... There are still people who haven't arrived. ”

Su Yanqing was shocked, glanced at him, the annoyance in his eyes had not faded, Qian Yancui's delicate body was shocked, and he hurriedly smiled: "Concubine...... The concubine went down to see if the wine was served. ”

After she finished speaking, she went downstairs like a peach. Zha Sanshao looked at the wine jug and wine cup on the table, and suddenly smiled slightly.

"What are your intentions in playing like this with this general and army?" Su Yanqing finally pressed his sword and said in a deep voice, and a fierce murderous aura flashed in his bright eyes.
