Chapter 395: Backtracking
Damn Li Xingchen, does he think he will recognize him for fiddling?
The war is still going on, it is not over yet, and I will not lose, never.
The King of Turpan's eyes were red, "Pass it on, let the soldiers from the nearby cities come lightly, and this king will give Li Xingchen a good look." ”
"Be cautious, king. The army can come, but it costs money to eat, drink, and Lazar. Besides, the food in the city could not supply so many soldiers. The prime minister hesitated.
He was also very angry, but the more this was the case, the more he had to stay calm, maybe this was also calculated by Li Xingchen.
The people take food as the sky, and the soldiers are also the people, and they must also eat!
If you don't have enough to eat, you will be dissatisfied and make trouble.
It's okay for a few days, but after a long time, if Li Xingchen doesn't need to send troops, there will be chaos inside, and all the soldiers have been transferred, and the city will be unguarded.
The king of Turpan was mad, his internal organs were about to explode, he couldn't calm down, he just wanted to kill.
After a moment of silence, the prime minister said in a deep voice: "King, why don't you buy the prisoners back first, and adjust the current army?"
In this way, we have 90,000 horses, and the overall strength is still more than that of the Wei army, and the cost is stronger than the soldiers in the surrounding cities.
When the captives return, the morale of the soldiers in the courtiers will be restored. ”
King Turpan's eyes lit up and he felt that this plan was feasible. When the money is delivered, you can bring the elite weapons with you.
Li Xingchen would never have imagined that he could use the soldiers he bought back to reorganize the army.
In this way, the other soldiers who are rushing will be able to outflank them from the rear and win the battle, and the time will not be so rushed!
…
Soon, five days passed.
The prime minister came to Tianfan City to redeem the soldiers.
Ten taels of silver per person, a full dozen to make up a whole of 500,000 taels of silver.
"Your Majesty, the money is in place, let's count it." The prime minister said in a deep voice.
Boxes of money made him feel extremely humiliated.
500,000 taels of silver converted into copper coins is 500,000 copper coins, nearly one-tenth of Turpan's annual tax revenue.
If you want to bring the money for the death toll of the Wei army, it will be more than a year...
Li Xingchen waved his hand and asked the soldiers to count.
Seeing real money makes him feel good, or the war is fast.
"Last time, I sent someone to you to say, how did you decide on the amount of compensation for the casualties of the Great Wei soldiers?"
The prime minister nodded, "This is a state matter, and my king needs to consult with other ministers, and it is not something that my king can make a decision with a single word." ”
Li Xingchen's face immediately darkened, "I don't have that much time. ”
After saying that, turn around and leave.
The prime minister thought that he had been cheated by him, so he took the money and did not let go of the prisoner, so he was immediately shocked and chased after him, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what about the prisoner?" ”
"This way, this way!" A general beckoned impatiently to him.
The prime minister turned his head and breathed a sigh of relief, just be willing to let people go, proving that the Wei people keep their promises.
In that case, when they are surrounded by a large army, let them be left with a whole corpse.
In the midst of lightning and fire, the prime minister thought about a lot of fantasy.
Soon, the general took him to the prisoners.
The 50,000 captives were held in 10 places to avoid gathering crowds to make trouble, and it was difficult to discipline them.
"Go and bring all the captives from the rest of the world." The general ordered.
Soon, soldiers from other places slowly gathered.
The prime minister looked around and noticed that something was wrong. These were ordinary soldiers, and there were no generals.
There is no leader to lead, and if you want to deploy soldiers to cooperate, this is impossible!
"What about our generals?" The prime minister asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
"There's no hurry, I'll let it go then, it's all on the other side now." The general pointed in the other direction and said in a deep voice.
"Why aren't you letting people go now?" The prime minister's face turned cold.
The money has been given, and it has to be released in batches? Just now, I admired them for their creditworthiness, but it turned out to be nothing more than that.
"What's the hurry? Who knows if you let people go, will you engage in other moths? Don't worry, we Wei people are the most trustworthy, as long as we leave Turpan safely, people will be released soon. We'll leave at noon, and we'll just be closed for another half day. ”
The Prime Minister glanced up at the sun, and the bearing was about to rise overhead, and it wouldn't take an hour...
With a cold snort, he took the captives away, and rounded up with the king of Turpan to tell him about it.
"Wang, the Wei people are cunning, and they still detain people, saying that they will not let them go until they leave."
"Prime minister, this king will give you two to come, you will personally lead them to attack, and when Li Xingchen's army wants to leave, be sure to intercept it."
Within five days, the king of Turpan urgently transferred 20,000 troops from nearby cities, plus 40,000 in his hands, a total of 60,000, 70,000 against the Great Wei, there was no advantage in numbers, but the redeemed 50,000 captives put on armor and weapons, that is, 110,000 troops, and could fight to the death with the Great Wei.
In addition, the soldiers of other cities are also rushing to this side, and they will be able to arrive in these two days.
In this way, the longer the time drags on, the more beneficial it will be to Turpan.
The king of Turpan didn't believe that in his own territory, he would lose to Li Xingchen.
The prime minister nodded, took the order, and distributed all the weapons that had been smuggled in to the redeemed soldiers.
"Brothers, this time I am here to wash away the shame, you have been a prisoner for so long, do you hate it in your hearts? Complain or not?
You are all good sons and daughters of Turpan, please show your heroic side, and kill no enemy armor. Defend dignity, defend the country, and defend the country's face. ”
The prime minister held a large knife and shouted loudly.
The prime minister of a country, he has no force! When the national crisis is present, he must show his attitude, personally lead the team, and restore morale.
"Defend the homeland, defend the dignity!"
50,000 soldiers shouted in unison, and the mountains shouted a tsunami!
The Zai was very satisfied with their attitude, thinking that the morale of the captives had been revived, and as a result, as soon as the shouting was over, 50,000 soldiers were in a scuffle.
At the same time, the soldier who made the first move took off his coat and had a Wei character printed on his chest!
The prime minister gasped, "It's a trick." ”
One of the captured prisoners was counterfeited by the Great Wei soldiers.
"Kill them, these dogs are too rampant." A general roared, trembling with rage.
The scene became more and more chaotic, and the unprepared Turpan soldiers fell one after another. The body was piled up in one place, and the blood flowed like a river.
In the crowd, there was a call from Shangshu of the military department and General Dawei, "Surrender the troops and don't kill." ”
At the same time, the two rushed towards the general and the prime minister of Turpan and arrested the prime minister of a country, then this battle will be won beautifully!
The general of Turpan was so angry that he completely lost his mind, drew his broadsword, and killed the Wei army.
This is a shame, a shame that can never be washed away, the dignity of a country, trampled on the floor of the foot again and again.
And all of this is thanks to Li Xingchen.
Soon, the Turpan soldiers were killed.
After all, these soldiers were only released after torture, and their willpower had long been exhausted.
