Volume 2 Kyoto Chapter 346 Reinforcements on the Western Front

“……”

To tell the truth, telling people with a little sense of the battlefield is tantamount to playing the harp to a cow.

Huang Zhang didn't bother to say more to Gonggong Hong, he looked at Cen Shang.

As long as Cen Shang agrees with his approach, then it will be fine, after all, the forbidden army is now commanded by Cen Shang, not him.

"Captain Cen understands what I mean, right?"

Cen Shang nodded, he understood from Huang Zhang's example, this is the great prince of the Su Kingdom, even if they don't have soldiers in their hands now, but just with the resounding name of the great prince, it is enough to boost the morale of the army.

But...... Cen Shang also has his own concerns.

Although he knew Huang Zhang's thoughts, his purpose was to safely escort the eldest prince back to Beijing, but there was no option to reinforce the battlefield.

Therefore, Cen Shang did not agree with Huang Zhang's second choice.

His primary goal was safety, reinforcements to the front line, too dangerous.

Of course, Huang Zhang knew Cen Shang's thoughts, and he began to brainwash the other party: "Do you think it's good to choose the first one?" ”

As soon as Cen Shang was about to speak, Huang Zhang interrupted: "But don't forget, what is the situation of Su Guo now, the national disaster is at the head, how did His Royal Highness the Second Prince die?" It was stabbed on the way to defend the empire, and now the crisis of the military country in the east has not been resolved, there is civil strife in the capital, and the northwest is even more ready to move, and these anti-thieves are even more powerful. ”

"Now that this land is devastated, I, as the dignified prince of the country, can obviously share the worries of my father like the second child. How could I be cowering in a fortress and waiting for this shattered empire to come to my rescue? ”

"I'm the prince of Suguo, Huangzhang...... Save the land yourself! If you are afraid and want to retreat, I don't force it, but as the prince of Suguo, I have no reason to retreat! If you want to go, it's up to you! I was the only one who died generously. ”

After speaking, Huang Zhang turned around directly, with an indignant face.

Seeing Huang Zhang's remarks, Hu Yi'er frowned, she knew that it was over, and when she heard these words, she would know the result.

Sure enough, Cen Shang and the surrounding forbidden soldiers knelt directly on one knee in front of Huang Zhang.

"I am willing to go to the national disaster with His Royal Highness the Great Prince!"

"I am willing to go to the national disaster with His Royal Highness the Great Prince!"

Seeing the actions of Cen Shang and the forbidden soldiers around him, Gonggong Hong really wanted to cry without tears, she didn't have such a big heart, but in this situation, how could she be embarrassed to open her mouth and retreat!

In desperation, she had no choice but to say: "Old slave...... Willing to follow His Highness! ”

It was clear that she was reluctant.

Seeing Cen Shang and the others make the right decision, Huang Zhang immediately changed his face and helped Cen Shang up with a smile.

"Captain Cen is righteous, and the brothers of the forbidden army are even better, this trip will live up to the cultivation of the empire!"

"Live up to the cultivation of the empire!"

"Live up to the cultivation of the empire!"

"Live up to the cultivation of the empire!"

A crowd immediately shouted in unison.

This scene is all too familiar to Hu Yier, after all, Huang Zhang has not done this once or twice.

However, she also admires her son-in-law, and persuaded them in a few words, if it were her, it would definitely not work.

After that, Cen Shang's forbidden army turned around and began to drive west, the border between Danyang County and Zhongping County.

Along the way, due to the impact of the war, the people have begun to flee for their lives in the direction of the Violent Tiger Pass.

After saying it, it was ironic, I still remember that last year, the people came to Danyang County one after another, but I didn't expect how long it had been? The tide was reversed.

But fortunately, now the three counties of Sunan are just recovering, and they need population, and these people migrating to Sunan can be regarded as invisibly strengthening Huang Zhang's power!

Could this be the chosen one?

God is helping him?

Passing by the county seat of Danyang County, Huang Zhang and the others did not enter, and now the first task is to rush to the border to see how the war is developing, and the time cannot be delayed at all.

Huang Zhang didn't even sit in the carriage anymore, and rode directly on horseback.

After two days, the group finally arrived at the border of Danyang County.

From the scattered soldiers who retreated, they knew that the Beijing army was now stationed in Yangcheng on the border of Danyang County.

Yangcheng is not big, and it is impossible to accommodate tens of thousands of troops, but Yangcheng is small outside, just like a funnel, and the funnel happens to be Yangcheng, if the troops are stationed around Yangcheng, it can be accommodated.

When Huang Zhang and the others arrived in Yangcheng, they found that the Beijing army was stationed in this way.

All the troops surrounded the Yangcheng garrison and built a temporary defensive line at Hulukou on the outskirts of Yangcheng to defend against the anti-thief army.

This time, the Beijing army was led by Long Xiang's general Suo Yan, who led the Beijing army of 50,000 and came to suppress the bandits.

When Suo Yan heard that the eldest prince had come to the front line, he immediately brought someone over to greet him.

Originally, Suo Yan thought that Huang Zhang was bringing reinforcements, but when he found out that Huang Zhang was with four hundred forbidden troops, the whole person collapsed.

Especially for Suoyan's Jing army, hearing the news of the arrival of the eldest prince in Yangcheng did not invigorate them at all, on the contrary, they were somewhat ironic.

It's not that they don't think Huang Zhang is good, it's just that they think that the eldest prince is here to deliver food, and it makes no sense at all.

This phenomenon made Cen Shang a little puzzled, it stands to reason that although the strength of the Beijing army is not as strong as their forbidden army, it will not be too weak, but now the situation of the entire military camp has no desire to fight, and they are all sluggish.

It's just a bunch of thieves, how did it become like this?

Especially Gonggong Hong, he didn't believe that the Beijing army couldn't defeat the thieves before, but now it seems that this is like the Beijing army, a defeated army.

The Beijing army, which has more than 50,000 troops, actually guards the small place of Yangcheng and does not dare to attack? If this spreads, won't it make you laugh out of your big teeth?

Regarding Gonggong Hong's questioning, Suo Yan smiled bitterly.

He had the same idea as Gonggong Hong before, but only after he really saw the strength of those anti-thief armies did he know how terrifying the other party was!

They are not human at all.

But Suoyan didn't bother to explain, otherwise it felt like he was making excuses.

It is not easy for them to defend this Yang City now.

Now Suoyan has one purpose, to defend it!

It was Huang Zhang, who asked with some curiosity: "Why are there all Beijing troops here, I remember that the defenders of Danyang County and the troops of Violent Tiger Xiongguan have all come, what about them?" ”

At the mention of this, Suoyan sighed.

"The defenders of Danyang County were destroyed, the Taishou of Danyang County was beheaded by the leader of the anti-thieves, and as for the northern army that came over from the Violent Tiger Xiongguan, I heard that it was defeated and retreated on the southern front, and I didn't dare to divide my troops to save it, so I don't know his current situation."

"Don't dare to divide your troops?" Gonggong Hong seemed to have heard something extremely outrageous, "General, you have a full 50,000 horses, why don't you dare to divide the troops?" ”

"Fifty thousand? Hehe, do you know how many anti-thief troops there are outside Yangcheng? Two hundred thousand! ”

"What? Two hundred thousand? ”
