Chapter 409: A Reasonable Explanation

With the defeat of the defenders of Luoyang and the loss of their military rations, the night attack came to an end temporarily.

As for the fleeing rout, Sima Dejiao and the others did not order the pursuit, after all, further on, they were about to approach Luoyang City, and the reinforcements sent by Wang Shichong must have been on their way now.

If you chase deeper, you will have to go through the second war, which is inconsistent with Yang Guang's order.

When he returned to the barracks, there was a jubilant scene, and Yang Guang was already waiting for good news in the barracks.

As soon as he saw the latter, Cheng Yanjin immediately reported with great interest: "Your Majesty, this time we have a gratifying record, destroying about 20,000 enemies, plundering a number of grain and grass, and our own battle losses are less than 1,000, you will be able to see the specific details when you turn around." ”

"Well, that's good." Yang Guang's expression was very calm, and he smiled slightly.

Cheng Yanjin wondered: "Your Majesty, aren't you happy that you won the battle?" ”

"What's there to be happy about?" Yang Guang rolled his eyes: "I have been brewing for so long, and if I can't get a big victory like this, it means that there is something wrong with the ability of your generals." ”

Cheng bit Jin smacked his lips: "That's what I said." ”

Yang Guang touched his chin, then looked at Sima Dejiao on the other side and said: "Wang Shichong has suffered such a big loss, he will definitely be thunderous tonight, and he can't sleep, so it's comfortable to think about it." ”

Sima Dejiao said with some concern: "Your Majesty, should we withdraw our troops first?" ”

"Withdraw, why withdraw?"

"Wang Shichong has suffered heavy casualties, how can he swallow this breath easily? The Admiral fears that he will lead his army to bite us back. ”

Sima Dejiao immediately expressed his worries: "After all, we are still on his territory now, and we have to be cautious in every move." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Yang Guang waved his hand indifferently: "Forgive that Wang Shichong and don't dare to call." ”

"And what if he does call? So what to do? Luo Cheng asked tentatively.

Yang Guang laughed: "It's good to call, I wish he could call, in fact, what I am best at is not the art of attack, but the positional defense battle, which is enough to make that Wang Shichong have no return." ”

"In this way, the matter in Luoyang can be solved as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yang Guang was so confident, everyone else secretly smacked their tongues.

But when they asked about the specific tactics, Yang Guang prevaricated them with the so-called secrets, and refused to explain anything in detail, which also made Sima Dejiao and others feel helpless.

After talking for a while, Yang Guangfang smiled and said, "Okay, there is no need to mention this matter again, there is another thing you have to do now." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Spread my order, hand Wang Shichong a letter of surrender, telling him to disarm and surrender within three days, and leave Luoyang City, otherwise I will launch a general attack on Luoyang City!" Yang Guang's eyes were domineering.

"80,000 people, going to attack Luoyang City?" Qin Shubao suddenly changed color, and couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, you may not know, don't look at us this time we have won a big battle, but in fact, it is not enough to make Wang Shichong hurt his muscles and bones." ”

"Around this Luoyang City, there are at least about 200,000 troops stationed, once we really want to attack Luoyang City, we will not face 350,000 people, but several times our enemies!"

"Under such difficulty, if you want to conquer Luoyang City, it is really difficult......"

In the face of Qin Shubao's remarks that were obviously about destroying his prestige, Sima Dejiao and others did not oppose it, but agreed with it. After all, what he said was the truth, and they all knew the information about Luoyang very clearly.

"I just asked you to send a letter of surrender, and I'm not going to attack Luoyang tonight, what's the hurry?" Yang Guang pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly: "My words, it's not good, right?" ”

"It's not." Several people shook their heads one after another.

"In that case, let's do it."

"Yes!"

Several people immediately left the tent with a helpless face, and then Sima Dejiao personally wrote a letter of surrender according to Yang Guang's intention and sent someone to send it to Wang Shichong.

At that time, Wang Shichong was staying in the Luoyang Palace.

He had just received the news that the reinforcements he had sent had not yet arrived at the barracks, and he encountered a rout fleeing in disarray. From their mouths, they knew that after the Sui army occupied the barracks, they did not continue to pursue and kill in depth, but were extremely brazen to empty the grain and grass and carry them all back to their own barracks.

This news undoubtedly made Wang Shichong furious, and he angrily smashed all the porcelain in the room, and the shards covered the ground, making it impossible for people to get their feet.

At this moment, the generals who did not respond properly in this battle all knelt in front of Wang Shichong.

At first glance, there were as many as five or six people, most of them with disheveled hair and covered in blood, and one of them had been stabbed in the left arm by an arrow, and blood was constantly oozing out.

But even so, these generals didn't dare to cry out for bitterness, because they knew that after such a big defeat, Wang Shichong must have hated them to the core.

Right now, their heads are hanging from their belts, how dare they talk too much?

"Not to mention a military camp with 30,000 people, even if you are facing 30,000 pigs, it is not so simple for the other party to kill more than 20,000 pigs, right?"

Wang Shichong stared at them deadly, and because of his excessive anger, his expression was faintly distorted at this moment: "If you can't come up with a reasonable explanation, this king will break your group of wastes into ten thousand pieces now!" ”

"King Zheng, we really can't be blamed for this matter......

A middle-aged general who looked a little shrewd said with a sad face: "We didn't expect Emperor Yang of Sui to come to such a show." ”

"Didn't expect that? Just one thought can exonerate you from the death penalty? ”

Wang Shichong slapped the latter in the face and roared: "That's an army of 80,000 people!" When he approached the barracks, the king did not believe that there was not even the slightest movement. If you react a little faster, you won't fail like this! ”

Hearing this, many generals felt very ashamed.

They did hear the commotion, but the laxity of the past few days made them even bother to inquire about it. By the time they reacted, the situation had become irreparable.

But at the same time, they felt aggrieved in their hearts.

You must know that it is not only them, but also in Luoyang City, don't they relax? It is said that in the past few days, Wang Shichong has been singing every night, and his small life is much happier than them.

Of course, in order to save his own life, he categorically did not dare to express these thoughts.

"King Zheng forgives the crime, the last general and others have already realized their mistakes, and I hope that King Zheng can give us another chance to make meritorious contributions, and we promise that next time we will definitely regain the face lost today for Luoyang!"
