Chapter 407: Breaking Through the City
But this time, it was the other party who suffered, they retreated, our cavalry rushed back and forth in the middle, and Ma Ling led people back to block their retreat, and Li Qing's thousands of people killed back like a tide.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of them were like crumbling anthills, running and dying.
"General, it is not a disaster for these soldiers to escape, but the enemy commander must not let him escape, otherwise he will go to entangle his troops and come back to capture the county seat!"
Ma Ling was covered in blood, not to mention, his words reminded me, we really can't let go of the enemy commander, he can't surrender, then he has to die.
"Okay, General Ma, you bring someone to catch up, this guy must be stubborn, if he doesn't surrender, kill him on the spot!"
Ma Ling obeyed the order and led a team of people to quickly chase and kill.
Today's battle was hearty, although we also lost a lot of brothers, especially Li Qing's side, he had more than 5,000 people, and I was afraid that he had lost more than 2,000.
But the other side is even worse than us, more than 10,000 of them went out of the city, and there are only three or four thousand who were scattered and fled, and even more were killed, and the scene was full of corpses and blood.
Looking at the corpses lying on the ground at the scene, the air was filled with the smell of blood, and my heart was not a special taste, is this war?
Is this the price that needs to be borne by unscrupulous means for the sake of profit?
Fortunately, General Ma did not disappoint me, he happened to lead people to break through the county seat at this time, and even the banner was found on the top of the city tower.
Seeing this scene, my hanging heart finally let go, as long as we occupy this county, we will be saved!
"General, general, look, General Ma has captured the county seat, and he has succeeded!"
The thin monkey guy who followed Li Qing was also covered in blood, he walked to my side, looked at the flag fluttering in the wind above the city tower, and looked very excited when he spoke.
"Yes, General Ma did not disappoint, his ability is not small, this capture of the county seat, his credit is not small, follow me into the city!"
With that, I waved my hand and led people towards the county seat.
General Ma captured the county seat, did not waste much strength, the casualties were the lowest, almost no casualties, originally the city defenders on the city tower were ready to resist, but the other party saw that their main general led the troops back to help failed, and they all fled with the team, where can they still resist us with hundreds of people, and finally can only open into surrender, and it is their best choice to sacrifice the county seat.
"General, you are really a good strategy, you are brave and invincible on the battlefield, and you are a good strategy to capture this county, which is really admirable!"
When General Ma saw me, this guy was excited, and he spoke with a special look behind me, as if he had never won such a battle.
"Conquering the county seat, that is also the credit of your General Ma, no one can earn this for you!"
Patting General Ma on the shoulder, I smiled faintly, he was puzzled for a moment, and then laughed, it seemed that he understood what I meant.
"Report, report to the general, General Li Qing asks to bring troops into the city!"
General Ma was about to report to me on the siege of the city, when he saw Li Qing begging to enter the city with his team outside the city gate.
To say that this Li Qing is also a capable person, he suffered a big loss, but he reduced the loss to a minimum, and in the end, it was they who mainly fought with the locality, killing six or seven thousand people on the other side, but they only lost one or two thousand, and now look at it, his soldiers are still extremely powerful, worthy of a group of tigers and wolves!
"What to do, if they are allowed to come in, in case they have any attempts, it will inevitably be another bloody battle, you must know that their team is not simple, it can be described as a tiger and wolf!"
General Ma pulled me, his face became a little ugly, his concerns were also correct, after all, both sides are people with troops, you can't be unguarded, be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship!
But in today's bloody battle, Li Qing's contribution is not small, many times it is Li Qing who plays a big role, if they are not allowed to enter the city, then what kind of people have we become?
"General Ma, you don't need to say more at this time, let's let them come into the city, it's not a problem outside, and I just want to ask him why Li Qing led troops to besiege the city."
After saying that, I walked to the gatehouse and looked at the layout of the entire county, and asked people to go and bring Li Qing and them into the city first, General Ma originally wanted to say something, but seeing that I had already walked towards the gatehouse, I finally had to sigh and did not say anything to dissuade him!
Looking outside the city at this time, I don't know what the battle situation is when Ma Ling goes to chase and kill the local master, I think about it now, I am really worried about him, after all, she only brought two hundred brothers to go, and there are a lot of people around the local master, even if they become a defeated army, but there is still a lot of military strength!
"In this way, General Ma, you now lead a group of men and horses out of the city to meet General Ma Ling, he is going to hunt down and kill the local general, I am really afraid that he will be defeated!"
General Ma nodded, and rushed out of the city with all the people and horses.
And Li Qing was also walking towards me at this time, his face was a little ugly, and he was angry, as if he was angry with me!
"General Lee?"
I walked up head-on, and looking at Li Qing's face at this time, I had a bad premonition, this guy must be blaming me for capturing the city tower!
"General Mao, thank you for saving me today, if it weren't for your resourcefulness, our brothers would all be buried here!"
Li Qing walked over and suddenly laughed when he spoke, as if he was really thanking me, but his words "resourceful" were very important, which made people feel bad when they heard it.
Is this a disguised scolding me for playing tricks?
But it doesn't matter, I did what I didn't do, and now I have to accept whatever he scolds me, right? People are holding back a lot of anger!
"General Li, you are smiling, you fought really beautifully in this battle today, your army is as fierce as a tiger, and it has shown me what is a sharp weapon on the battlefield!"
What I can do now is to try my best to avoid our capture of the county seat, and now Li Qing is a bag of **, as long as I see a little spark, it will explode.
"Speaking of which, today is thanks to General Mao's rescue, with only a few hundred people, and the 10,000 army of Wang Yuan was defeated, which really made Li see what is a sharp weapon on the battlefield!"
Li Qing, this guy really scolds me all the time, don't you mean that I only sent a few hundred people to drag the enemy's main general Wang Yuan, but sent the main force to capture the county seat?
Obviously, I just want to attack the county seat!
"General Li, what are you talking about, I am really kind enough to help you, you say, if I don't come up with this plan and send people to attack the county seat, then the enemy's main general Wang Yuan will inevitably have nothing to fear, and his team has lost a lot, but if there is no one from me to capture the county seat, will he come back to help? Will there be so many people to lose? This is a war strategy, and we have no choice but to do it! ”
Now in this situation, it seems that I really did the right thing to transfer General Ma out of the city just now, if he is here now, and sees Li Qing talking to me like this, I am afraid that he has already drawn his sword and faced each other!
"Okay, then why did you send your lord out of the city, do you want to annihilate my Li in the city?"
When Li Qing said this, I was shocked, this guy actually thought that I sent General Ma out of the city for another trick? It's really kind to do things, but leave a handle!
"You really misunderstood me, my other lieutenant general led troops to chase and kill the enemy's main general, but he only brought more than 200 people, although Wang Yuan has been defeated, but there are no less than three or four thousand people under his hands, I am afraid that my lieutenant will suffer a loss, so I will send General Ma out of the city to rescue. And then I am afraid that we will draw our swords against each other, imagine that if we speak like this now, if my Lord will speak again, will he talk to you like me? ”
Hearing me say this, Li Qing's face softened and became a little embarrassed, this guy understood my words this time, and he also knew my intentions.
"General, I, I'm sorry for you, I'm really ashamed!"
Li Qing said, kneeling directly on the ground, what I was waiting for was his words, as long as he didn't treat me as a villain, I would treat him as a gentleman.
"Okay, on the battlefield, no one will have some misunderstandings, this is a fleshy man, I don't mean to blame you, as long as you understand my mind."
Helping Li Qing up, the two of us looked at each other, and everyone grinned.
"General, today's battle, let me see your skills even more, I admire it, in addition to your previous suspicions, today I saw that I was in trouble, not falling into the well, but also desperately fighting to save me, I Li is grateful, he will be grateful if you have any orders, whether it is on the knife mountain or under the oil pot, I frowned, then I will not be surnamed Li!"
Following behind me, Li Qing was impassioned when he spoke, as long as I heard his words, I should be relieved.
"Hey, who will let you get out of the oil pot, you can just lead your brothers, go, follow me to see how the yamen of this county is doing, and you have to tell me why you brought troops here to besiege the city."
Saying that, we walked towards the county office, and I also wanted to see who the county magistrate of this county seat was, and why he provoked such a powerful person as Li Qing.
Regarding today's capture of the county seat, Li Qing should not worry about me anymore, and I also hope that he will not worry about me, otherwise, if the two families fight, it will be a lion fighting a tiger, and both sides will lose.
