Chapter 59
Li Chengde is not the straw bag Li Chengren, if he waits for him to clear the troops and will come over in time, then the advantages he established in the early stage will be gone, and this battle can not be delayed any longer.
The battlefield was unpredictable, and he had to take advantage of the most favorable time to attack Shangjing in one fell swoop.
"Your Majesty, the army on Jiuli's side has already been mobilized, and it must not be long before the two armies can meet with Fengming Mountain."
An Sui on the side read the news from Jiuli to Chu Huaichen.
Fengming Mountain is smoky all year round, the terrain is extremely steep, and it is located in the eastern boundary between Tianlan and Yuanqi. If Jiu Li sent his troops, why didn't he choose Xishui City, which was closest to him, but instead extended the battle line to Fengming Mountain in the east, Chu Huaichen's heart was full of doubts, and he asked,
"Who is the commander of Jiuli's army this time?"
"It's His Royal Highness Wei Xianrong, the one who has been a proton in Tianlan for several years." An Sui replied.
Chu Huaichen's thin lips pursed slightly, and the Jiuli proton who could retreat from Tianlan was probably not to be underestimated. What's more, he still has an ace iron horse in his hand, whether he is an enemy or a friend can only be distinguished in the future, Chu Huaichen thought secretly.
At the border of Jiuli, the army was reorganized here for several days and did not start the march, and for a while the army was a little impetuous, and the deputy general was an anxious person, and he was impatient and planned to go to the main tent to ask for clarification.
But as soon as he entered the tent, he felt a trace of coldness, and the climate in the western land was already hot and dry, and he could feel the chill at this time, which made him calm down a lot. At a pair of deep black eyes, full of coldness, the deputy general couldn't help but shudder.
Recently, the lieutenants are talking about their own generals for some reason, and there is always an inexplicable coldness on their bodies, and the conclusion that everyone has discussed is that their own generals may have been holding back for too long, this man, everyone understands.
But this radius of ten miles, where to get a girl without going to the village and the back of the store, the deputy general thought secretly, but he didn't know that when he was distracted, Wei Xianrong had already paced in front of him, which made the deputy general excited.
Wei Xianrong leaned on the table, his face was cold, and he said in a deep voice,
"As a deputy general, I am impetuous, but I have committed the great crime of disturbing the morale of the army."
The deputy general's body was stunned, and after Wei Xianrong reminded him like this, he also knew that if the army's heart was shaken for a long time, he was afraid that he would only be defeated without a fight, so he clasped his fists and saluted,
"The last general, thank you for your highness's mention, but the last general has not seen anyone in this army who can calm down like His Highness in several years."
I can't ask directly, so let's knock on the side, I finally mustered up the courage to come here, I can't return in vain, the deputy general thought to himself. Wei Xianrong knocked lightly on the table with a match, and the voice hit all of them in the heart of the deputy general, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, knowing that he would not come, and the deputy general's heart was a little aggrieved.
If he knew who provoked His Highness, he would definitely send people to His Highness with a bundle.
"The praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches, and the new emperor of Tianlan ascends the throne, and the one of Yuan Qi is afraid that he can't sit still." Wei Xianrong left a meaningful smile and said coldly.
Li Chengde ascended the throne, and Li Xinghe was named the princess of the auxiliary government of the country, if my iron horse destroyed your country and cut off all your hopes, would you obediently return to my side.
Wei Xianrong's dark eyes shone with an indescribable light, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sickly arc, and his red eyes were like a beast with great offensive power, always vigilant.
It's a pity that when I was young, I didn't know how to love her, and when I looked back, she was the white moonlight that she could no longer touch.
That night, Ying Dingbei received Chu Huaichen's secret decree, and after the order to attack Pingyang City at night was issued, the war between Tianlan and Yuan Qi officially began.
In the year of Huihe, the battle of Pingyang City, Yuan Qi attacked at night, and General Qiu Shengrong and his subordinates resisted desperately. The people of Pingyang City spontaneously participated in the battle, the army and the people were united, and more than half of the casualties were lost, and the city was not lost.
In Pingyang City, Qiu Shengrong simply bandaged his wounds, and then went to the city defense to continue patrolling, the night attack Yuan Qi was menacing, fortunately Pingyang terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, otherwise the army of more than 100,000 would have been leveled here.
Food and water sources continue to be urgent, and now even muddy water is difficult to find, he doesn't know if he can survive the rescue, but people must always have something to look forward to when they live.
Seeing that the brothers who were born and died were sallow-faced because of hunger, constantly licking their chapped lips, but still sticking to their posts, Qiu Shengrong was a little moved, and broke most of the white buns he had just received in his hands.
Fighting his spirits, Qiu Shengrong walked to the platform, he kept cheering for the soldiers, singing military songs, and his tone was passionate,
"There is no head, there is a body, only self-guessing, the left crying soul and the right crying skeleton. With the translation of the Zhi, see if you dare to come again in the next life! ”
As the military song was sung, the light in the eyes of the soldiers was gradually gassed, and they also sang along.
"The red oil painting halberd Bishan Pass, the gold arrow has no light into the earth. Cold rain and bleak autumn a few degrees, who will find the words today! ”
As soon as the news spread ten to hundreds, the entire Pingyang City began to sing military songs, and even the people sang along, and the song had even reached the Yuanqi camp tent that had moved fifty miles forward.
In yesterday's night attack, more than half of the casualties in Pingyang City were killed, and Yuan Qi did not reap any benefits, so he returned in vain, and the casualties were not much, but it was a great blow to the morale of the soldiers.
At present, the army and the people in Pingyang City are united, and the city defense is strong and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, he is really not suitable to take the initiative to attack at this time, Ying Dingbei thought to himself.
After discussing with the lieutenants, Ying Dingbei decided to drag it out for another two days, and after two days, he didn't believe that the people inside still had the strength to sing!
Recently, Li Xinghe has been busy dealing with political affairs, but fortunately, he has also received nine years of compulsory education before, and Ji Zhao is next to him, so he can be regarded as handy in dealing with it.
The army from the east and south was also moving to the northern border, and within three days the army would arrive in Binh Duong. And today is also the day of Li Chengde's personal expedition, Li Xinghe stood on the city wall of Shangjing, looking at the young man in front of him who had faded away, and felt a lot for a while.
At the age of sixteen, he has to bear the fate of the whole country, the battlefield is changeable, may he be able to return triumphantly, Li Xinghe prayed silently in his heart.
Before the war, in addition to opening temples to worship ancestors, there was always a passionate speech to boost morale, and Li Chengde was naturally no exception. Facing tens of millions of soldiers, Li Chengde stood on a high platform, covered himself with armor, stood against the wind, and shouted,
