Chapter 67: Annihilation
Yang Meng did not hesitate, immediately Huo Ran got up, stood on this side of the pass, drew his long sword, and shouted angrily: "The soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, General Xiang Yu went around behind the enemy and broke through the enemy camp!
In a flash!
The South Pavilion Gate opens.
Countless soldiers rushed out.
The faces of these soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were full of fanaticism.
Xiang Yu only brought 8,000 cavalry, and broke through the camp garrisoned by 500,000 troops of Annan!
Cut down the enemy's banner.
Kill the enemy commander.
Cleared the way for them.
Now, no matter how many people there are in Annan, it has become a mess.
The defeat was like a mountain.
Tear and pull!
The soldiers in Nanting Pass fought fiercely with the defeated soldiers of Annan.
The army of Annan has already been killed by Xiang Yu, and at this moment, it is not an opponent at all against these Great Song soldiers in Nanting Pass.
The cavalry led by Xiang Yu galloped back and forth, unstoppable, and slaughtered the entire Annan army.
A large number of soldiers of the Annan Kingdom lost their fighting spirit and began to surrender in large areas.
Yang Meng looked at such a scene in front of him, and a thick surprise appeared in his eyes.
He knew very well that in this war, if there was no Xiang Yu, Nanting Pass would definitely be broken under the impact of the 500,000 army of Annan.
Once the barrier is broken, the consequences are unimaginable.
However, now Xiang Yu relied on his own strength, leading only 8,000 cavalry, and turned the tide and defeated 500,000 enemy troops.
Ended this war!
This person is really a god of war!
"Your Majesty......"
Yang Meng turned his head and looked in the direction of Jinling City, his eyes were extremely awe-inspiring.
is as strong as Xiang Yu, and he is just a general under His Majesty.
Yang Meng couldn't imagine how many strong people there were around His Majesty the Emperor?
......
Jinling City.
Palace.
Zhao Lin sat on the throne of the dragon chair.
The civil and military officials were on both sides of the imperial road, and they were playing the affairs of the court to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that if you only send General Xiang Yu alone, without sending other reinforcements, I am afraid it will not be enough to match the 500,000 army of Annan, in case Nanting Pass is breached, we have to prepare for the worst......"
A minister came out and said in a loud voice.
As soon as these words came out, the people in the court were immediately panicked.
The 500,000-strong army of Annan went east, and the 100,000-strong defenders of Nantingguan were in danger.
And at this juncture, Zhao Lin only sent one Xiang Yu to help.
Even if this feather has the ability to reach the sky, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, can he really scatter beans into a soldier and conjure up soldiers and horses to compete with the army of Annan?
Therefore, they are extremely worried about the war on the front line.
Once the Nanting Pass is breached, the 500,000 troops of the Annan Kingdom can reach Jinling City within three days.
When the time comes, none of them, the court ministers, will probably not want to survive.
"Weichen thinks that His Majesty can consider moving the capital back to Yashan......"
The minister said stiffly.
As soon as these words came out, many officials' eyes lit up.
Although Yashan City is small and partial, it is surrounded by mountains, and it is indeed much safer than Jinling City.
That's a good idea.
"Aiqing, are you letting me run away without a fight?"
However, Zhao Lin on the dragon chair smiled coldly, which made the other courtiers who had originally planned to admonish immediately close their mouths.
"I can tell you in no uncertain terms that I have no intention of going back after I moved the capital from Yashan City. ”
"Before the army of Annan arrived, you were already scared like this, it's ridiculous!"
Zhao Lin never expected that the battle situation in Nanting Pass had not yet been transmitted, and some courtiers in the court would already start to think about retreating.
Hundreds of officials knelt down in unison: "Your Majesty forgives your sins!"
"Forgiveness?"
Zhao Lin sneered again and again, "It seems that you have been frightened by the army of Annan. ”
The ministers were silent.
Zhao Lin's voice just fell.
There was a rush of footsteps.
I saw Cao Zhengchun walking in, his face full of joy.
"Your Majesty, a great victory on the front line, a great victory!"
"Yang Hanlin led the soldiers of Nanting Pass to fight bloodily, while General Xiang Yu only led 8,000 cavalry, broke the cauldron and sunk the boat, went around to the rear of the enemy, broke through the enemy's camp, and our army won a complete victory......"
Cao Zhengchun bowed to Zhao Lin and said loudly.
In an instant, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all dumbfounded!
They never imagined that this battle not only resisted the 500,000 army of Annan, but also defeated all of these 500,000 troops!
Zhao Lin sat on the throne, and a smile appeared on his face.
Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, really lives up to his reputation!
Xiang Yu in his memory once broke the cauldron and defeated the 400,000 tiger wolf Qin army, which shocked the world!
Now, the other party has staged a catastrophe again, breaking the army of 500,000 Annan!
It is worthy of a generation of war gods.
"Go on!"
Zhao Lin looked at Cao Zhengchun and said.
"Yes!"
Cao Zhengchun continued to report: "Your Majesty, this time our army suffered a total of more than 40,000 casualties, and the army of Annan was completely defeated, with more than 200,000 casualties and 200,000 captures, and only tens of thousands of remnants fled back to Annan. ”
"Weapons and horses were captured, and there were countless ordnance. ”
"Our army took advantage of the victory to pursue and has fully recovered the land of Jingzhou in our Great Song Dynasty. ”
“......”
Cao Zhengchun said word by word.
Under the order of Cao Zhengchun, the Dongchang secret agents went deep into the border between the two countries, and after obtaining the battle report, they returned to Jinling City as soon as possible.
Therefore, before the battle report from the front line arrived, the secret report from the East Factory arrived first.
After Cao Zhengchun learned of such good news, he personally came to the Jinluan Palace to report to His Majesty the Emperor.
The Manchu Dynasty civil and military listened to Cao Zhengchun's recital, and their expressions were extremely excited.
The army of Annam was completely annihilated!
Although the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty also paid a very heavy price, compared with Annan, it was simply insignificant.
Moreover, the land lost before the Great Song Dynasty was also recovered.
At this moment, the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty has increased greatly!
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!"
All the officials knelt on the ground and congratulated Zhao Lin.
They were all excited, looking at Zhao Lin on the throne of the dragon chair, their eyes full of reverence.
Your Majesty, you are indeed a master of Zhongxing!
Under the leadership of His Majesty the Emperor, their Great Song Dynasty will surely reach the point of unprecedented strength!
After listening to Cao Zhengchun's report, Zhao Lin was also a dragon.
This battle was quite beautiful to win.
"Spread my will, and seal Xiang Yu, the general of the West Army, as the Marquis of Wanhu!"
"Yang Meng still worships Hanlin, and at the same time serves as the head of the military department!"
"The soldiers who died in the Battle of Nantingguan will be given double pensions in strict accordance with the laws of our Great Song Dynasty, and if the descendants of the fallen soldiers have joined the army, the military salary will be increased by two percent!"
To treat the soldiers who died on the battlefield, we must do a good job of preferential care, so that the soldiers are willing to work for the imperial court.
Even if they die on the battlefield, their families and their descendants will be taken care of by the Great Song Dynasty.
