Chapter 70: Take a Hammer from a Certain Family!
Emperor, this thief, has been killed.
Li Ji lifted his sleeves expressionlessly and wiped the blood on the sword.
He looks sven and steady, but his killing sword is also fast.
The room was shocked, and everyone was speechless.
The atmosphere was terrible and silent.
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang looked at Li Ji with shocked faces, they also wanted to kill the second prince, but the second prince has a special identity, and he is not someone they can kill if they want to!
This Minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion is really too decisive.....
Isn't he afraid of the emperor's condemnation!
No, this is no longer a question of whether the emperor will condemn him, in order to save the royal face, the emperor will definitely condemn Li Ji!
The royal bloodline, only the emperor of the dynasty can be killed, and others can't be killed!
Even if the second prince is a heinous person, no one can ask him for his guilt except the emperor himself!
"Mao Gong, you ......"
Zhao Yun was stunned for a long time before he said in a deep voice: "You are too reckless, the emperor will blame you." ”
"Reckless? maybe."
Li Ji smiled and said: "If the emperor is punished, I will bear it on my shoulders, but if this thief is not killed, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart." ”
"Hundreds of thousands of people in Linshan City are buried in the hands of this person, adding a lot of trouble to the emperor, the turmoil of Great Xia, and the consumption of national fortunes are all because of the rebellion of the Eight Kings; ”
Zhao Yun sighed and said: "I also know this, but Duke Mao shouldn't have killed this person so quickly, if we escort him to the imperial capital, he will not escape death, and the emperor will definitely kill him." ”
"Will it kill?"
Li Ji asked with a smile, and then shook his head: "You don't understand." ”
Zhao Yun is talented and smart, but he is too upright to see through the twists and turns for a while.
At this time, Great Xia was turbulent and the country was unstable, if the second prince was escorted to the imperial capital, the emperor would never kill him for the sake of the overall situation. Because the emperor will pay special attention to his reputation at this time, and will not allow any mistakes.
Sending the second prince to the imperial capital is equivalent to giving this thief a talisman.
The emperor may kill him, but it will not be now, this may be more than ten years, wait until Great Xia is completely stable, wait until the emperor completely grasps the overall situation of Great Xia, and at the same time solve the orc rebellion in Eastern Xinjiang.
But more than ten years is enough for this second prince to get some more moths.
The second prince has to die, this person can't go to the imperial capital, and he can't meet the emperor, he must die in Linshan City!
Zhao Yun was slightly silent, he felt some other meanings in Li Ji's move to kill the second prince, but he didn't ask, and he didn't ask Li Ji for any explanation.
"Mao Gong, this person was killed by me, and if the emperor is punished, I will resist. ”
Zhao Yun looked at Li Ji in a deep voice.
As the commander of the First Army, he couldn't watch Li Ji being punished by the emperor for anything, but he led his military exploits to the top, which was contrary to Zhao Yun's beliefs.
"Do you think the emperor will believe it, you are so calm, the emperor will not believe that you will kill the second prince. ”
Li Ji laughed, patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, and comforted: "I am the Minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion, and I am deeply respected by the emperor, and the emperor will not do anything to me because of a second prince, and if I do more, I will be relieved of my position as the Minister of the Military Aircraft Pavilion." ”
"If you really want to help me, then send troops quickly, and give me a share of the credit, so that I can make up for it. ”
Li Ji looked at Zhao Yun with a smile.
"Good. ”
Zhao Yun took a deep breath, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Rectify today, send troops tomorrow! Light cavalry and heavy cavalry, we will each receive half!"
"Mao Gong, you are responsible for galloping to the western battlefield, and I will lead the army to support the northern battlefield!"
The town guard cavalry is a cavalry, shouldering battlefield support and mobile forces, so he naturally pays attention to efficiency, and Zhao Yun is not a commander who drags mud and water, he makes decisions on the spot.
"No problem. ”
Li Ji nodded happily.
"As for Liu Taishou and Captain Li. ”
Zhao Yun turned around, looked at the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "These days, I have expanded the militia team by some people, and I have focused on training, and I will leave a few captains who are proficient in military training in Linshan City to command these 10,000 militiamen." ”
"Now that the second prince is dead, and the situation on the battlefield in the south has been completely stabilized, you two only need to use these 10,000 militia to protect Linshan City, and I will also leave half of the baggage and grain and grass, which should be able to support three months. ”
"It only takes three months, and the battlefields on all sides will definitely subside, and the Eight Kings Rebellion can't last until three months later!"
Zhao Yun's voice was extraordinarily confident.
"Obey the orders of the commander. ”
Liu Taishou and Li Jingyang glanced at each other, and they respectfully surrendered their orders.
With the release of the shackles of the cavalry army on the southern battlefield, the entire Eight Kings Rebellion began to come to an end.
With the intervention of the Great Xia Town Guard Cavalry, which has strong mobility and support forces, the situation on the western battlefield and the northern battlefield is already doomed.
......
At the same time, the western battlefield.
Bai Qi held 60,000 Daxia iron troops, defended the city, and faced 400,000 troops, he did not avoid or retreat.
He did not take the initiative to go out of the city to find trouble with the rebels, nor did he run away, so he wasted himself with the rebels.
I have only 60,000 troops, and you have 400,000 rebels, and the amount of grain and grass consumed is astronomical.
Fighting a war of attrition, the rebels will definitely not be able to fight.
But the rebels had a headache, and this Bai Qi didn't go out of the city to fight them at all, and every time they wanted to attack the city on a large scale, Liu Bowen's military division in the city would set up a Nalaoshzi [Seven Star Beidou] military formation.
As long as the rebels retreat, Bai Qi will lead the army out for a period of strangulation, not killing the enemy generals, but killing soldiers!
Bai Qi did not go deep every time, as long as the rebels came back to attack, they immediately retreated to the city.
Although the Great Xia Iron Army defending the city moved in formation, it could be attacked and bearable, which was extremely uncomfortable.
You say bombardment with siege machines?
The walls of the main defense line of the western battlefield are the thickest and tallest of all the cities in the entire four-sided battlefield!
If you want to bomb a gap, you can't do it without more than a month's effort, and this still doesn't take into account the consumption of siege equipment, if you really want to bomb so wildly, the siege equipment can't support a month of high-frequency bombing.
The siege equipment is like chicken ribs, and the large-scale siege can't be beaten, every time you want to make a detour to leave this main defense line city, you directly force the imperial capital, and force the army in the city to go out of the city to fight.
But this surnamed Bai didn't know where to place the ambush soldiers, and the army in the city cooperated with the ambush soldiers to go out of the city at night to cover up and kill, with the blessing of the [Seven Star Beidou] military array, the mobility of this group of infantry is as fast as the cavalry!
They came and went like the wind, and each time it only made the rebels jump in anger.
I can't help it, I can only do it like this.
And on the northern battlefield where Li Yuanba and Guan Yiwu are located, the situation is similar.
......
North Battlefield.
"Strategist, let someone get out of the city! Get down this group of rebels!"
I don't know how many times Li Yuanba has asked for battle, he is the commander of the first army, and at this time, he is like an ordinary vanguard general, and he can't command the army in the city at all.
This is not to blame Li Yuanba, the emperor had a will before the troops were dispatched, and the situation on the battlefield in the north and the arrangement of military operations must all obey Guan Yiwu's orders.
Li Yuanba could only be responsible for fighting the war, and could not make decisions on military operations.
"General Li, don't panic, this battle will be fought sooner or later, but it's not time yet. ”
Guan Yiwu poured a cup of tea for Li Yuanba with his own hands, and said with a smile: "As long as General Zhao solves the danger of Linshan City, the game of chess on the battlefield on all sides will come alive, and we can naturally go out of the city to fight." ”
"You always say this to a certain family, but you have been guarding it for so many days, and a certain family is aggrieved. ”
Li Yuanba's voice was very loud, and he was extremely depressed.
According to his temper, he led the army out of the city directly, and the whole world was quiet with two hammers.
Simple and decisive!
"No, no, no. ”
Guan Yiwu shook his head and explained: "There are 400,000 troops outside the city, no matter how brave the general is, he can't annihilate these 400,000 troops. ”
"If the general is lost, with the wisdom of Zhong alone, it is categorically impossible to defend the city, the general is extremely important to the overall situation, and is the only hope for the people in the city, the general must not be impulsive. ”
Guan Yiwu's tone was always gentle, and he slapped Li Yuanba's ass silently.
This Li Yuanba is a rough talent, you can't be hard, you have to coax him.
Li Yuanba snorted and shut up, he also knew that no matter how powerful he was, he was just one person, and he couldn't kill the 400,000 rebels outside the city, he just didn't want to admit it.
Guan Yiwu smiled and stopped talking.
He is not Liu Bowen, and he is not proficient in military formation, so he is more cautious than Liu Bowen, he has not fought out of the city once, and has been paying close attention to the movements of the rebels outside the city.
At this moment, the guards outside the gate suddenly broke in, knelt down and whispered: "General, military division, the rebels outside the city have come to attack the city again." ”
"This group of thieves raised by mothers dare to come!"
Li Yuanba was furious, and Huo Ran got up: "Take a certain hammer!"
"Huh?"
When the guards heard this, they trembled all over, and said pitifully: "General, you should go and get it yourself..... The brothers couldn't lift it. ”
They would rather go to a bloody battle with the rebels for three days and three nights than carry Li Yuanba's hammer.
