Chapter 421: The General Trend Has Been Set
In the battle of Luozhou, Bai Qi's soldiers were defeated and fled, and their vitality was greatly damaged.
The original two-point situation of Wei became clear in an instant. This battle also brought Xiao Chen's prestige to a peak in one fell swoop.
In Luozhou City, Xiao Chen took Li Luo and quietly listened to the reports of Xue Wuxing and other generals.
"Lord Wang, in the first battle of Luozhou, our side lost 60,000 troops, but killed 170,000 White Tiger Army, counting the fleeing White Tiger Army, there are 200,000, and now the soldiers who are following Bai Qi are no more than 100,000."
"According to the report of the spies, Bai Qi did not stop in the next state after the defeat, but returned directly to Kyoto."
On the side, Zhao Feilong's eyebrows fluttered and said: "Lord Wang, after the battle of Luozhou, Bai Qi is already at the end of the crossbow, and he is no longer the opponent of the prince." ”
When all the soldiers heard this, they also looked at each other and smiled, and their expressions were extremely relaxed.
On the contrary, Xiao Chen shook his head lightly and said: "Bai Qi is not as easy to deal with as you think, as far as I know, Bai Qi has at least 500,000 White Tiger Army in his hands, and this battle has lost 200,000 Bai Qi, and he has at least 300,000 troops in his hands." ”
"Our battle with Bai Qi is not over yet, everyone must not take it lightly."
All the soldiers bowed their hands in unison: "Yes!" ”
His gaze swept over the main hall, Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "What about Han Che?" ”
Only then did everyone react when they heard this, Han Che was actually not in the main hall.
Only Xue Wuxing's face was normal, but his eyes were a little evasive.
Xiao Chen, who noticed Xue Wuxing's abnormality, threw the latter a blaming look, and then said, "Fearless, where did Han Che go?" ”
Xue Wuxing knelt directly on the ground when he heard this, and arched his hand: "Returning to the prince, fearless and guilty, Bai Qi's soldiers were defeated and fled, Han Che led his troops to pursue, and I didn't stop Han Che." Han Che's crimes are all because I am not strict in governing the army, and I ask the prince to surrender his crimes! ”
After glancing at Xue Wuxing deeply, Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "Okay, don't tell me these scenes, you immediately give Han Che a military order now, and let him lead the troops back to Luozhou." ”
Xue Wuxing showed a look of incomprehension when he heard this: "Lord Wang, now that Bai Qi's army has no will to fight, it is a good opportunity to take advantage of the victory to pursue, if Han Che withdraws his troops at this time, will it chill the hearts of the soldiers?" ”
Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "Yes, the Bai Qi army at this time has indeed lost the will to fight, but have you ever heard a sentence called poor Kou Mo chasing?" ”
Xue Wuxing buried his head and said a little unconvinced: "Lord Wang, Lord Wu is a rough person, I still don't understand what Lord Wang means." ”
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "You are right, Bai Qi's army was defeated, and the army's spirit was scattered, and he really has no ability to compete with my Huazhou army." ”
"But if we push them to the brink, they'll give it a go. Why is the Dead Battalion scary? It's because they're not afraid of death. ”
"Think about it, if the 100,000 army in Bai Qi's hands doesn't want to fight us, even if we win, how much will it cost?"
"So the best way at the moment is to let Bai Qi go."
"This release, even if Bai Qi returns to Kyoto, the military spirit below is almost scattered."
"At that time, if we want to defeat Bai Qi again, it will be much simpler."
Hearing this, Xue Wuxing showed a look of sudden realization, knelt heavily on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "The last general was greedy for merit for a while, and almost ruined the prince's great affairs, and the last general called Han Che back." ”
Smiling slightly, Xiao Chen smiled and waved his hand and said, "That's it, that's all for today, you all go down." ”
When the soldiers left, Li Luo on the side shook his head and smiled: "Xiao Chen, congratulations." ”
Xiao Chen waved his hand: "Luozhou can win today, it all depends on your help, otherwise, I am still scratching my ears and cheeks in Xinzhou City." ”
Li Luo smiled freely, patted Xiao Chen's shoulder and said, "We are allies." ”
Xiao Chen didn't answer, but said softly: "Let's go, let's go have two drinks?" ”
Li Luo joked: "This time it won't be a fire, right?" ”
Xiao Chen laughed: "Luozhou City is a rich land, is there any wine in the world?" Even if you want to drink the best wine in the world today, I'll bring it to you. ”
……
Looking away from the Luozhou City Tower, the rushing Cirrus River roars by.
A curling dragon river, which divides the north and south of Wei into two halves, not only feeds the people along the river, but also a clear dividing line of the Wei border.
Crossing the Curling Dragon River, Xiao Chen was already officially fighting against Bai Qi. The mountains and rivers of Wei State, Xiao Chen has accounted for half of the wall.
On the city floor, Xiao Chen, Li Luo, and Youhua exchanged cups and exchanged lamps, talking and laughing.
Only this time, they didn't talk about anything about the world, and the three of them talked, and most of what they said was their own anecdotes in the past.
Youhua is a hard-working person, who grew up in a bandit den like Yunmeng Mizuze since she was a child, and has suffered a lot. The only interesting anecdote may be the days when she can still go into the water to fish without worry.
Not to mention Li Luo, since he was a child, he knew that his father was suspicious of the royal family, so he could only choose to endure humiliation at a young age.
Among the three, only Xiao Chen is the most relaxed, before he took over Yong'an, his life has always been freewheeling. He has done the most ridiculous things, and is the happiest of the three.
But this time, Xiao Chen unexpectedly didn't mention anything from before.
Li Luo, who noticed Xiao Chen's abnormality, patted the former on the shoulder and teased, "What? Don't talk about your glorious history? ”
Xiao Chen took a sip of the wine glass, shook his head and said, "Everything, I can't go back." ”
"The world is fair, how happy it was before, how lonely it is now."
"I remember who said that before? said that when he was young, as long as he met someone close to him, he would like to pour out all his joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and he wished that it would be enough for three days and three nights. ”
"When I grew up, I learned to report good news and not bad news. No matter how hard and tired I am, I only talk about happy things when I meet people. ”
"When it's a little bigger, I don't want to say anything, it's like putting a lock on my heart, and everything can only be digested by myself."
Li Luo thought thoughtfully: "Maybe the people around me who can say those words are gone." ”
Xiao Chen nodded: "Maybe." If those people were still around, I would still be the boy who was willing to take firecrackers to fry cow! ”
The three of them talked a lot on this day, and at first they were smiling, but as they talked, the three of them didn't talk much. m.
In the end, it became the three of them who drank sullen wine by themselves.
It wasn't until night fell that the three of them put down their wine cups.
Li Luo got up to say goodbye, and Youhua was going back to Yunmeng Shuize.
Xiao Chen is also interested in not keeping them, everyone has their own things to do. Friendship can only be hidden deep in the heart.
It's just that when they left, the three agreed with each other that when they waited for the Mid-Autumn Festival, they would go to Nayunmeng Mizusawa together to reunite.
Some people died, but not completely......
