Chapter 1472: Retreat South
The last time the mountain fire attacked, many brothers did not run out, they had no way to run at all, there were burning flames in all directions, and they were finally burned into a pile of black ashes, some people ran out of it, they did not play a good role, but brought out all the miserable phenomena in the last mountain fire, so when they heard that the Tang army ignited the mountains and forests again, many people were ready to smear oil on the soles of their feet.
"Hurry up, lift the general up, and let's retreat south."
Seeing that the general has not yet made a decision, his subordinates can't wait, and if they continue to stay, they will all die here, everyone still has the desire to survive, after hearing this, the subordinates immediately lifted the general up, and then used all their strength to begin to retreat to the south, without the permission of the imperial court, they must also retreat, otherwise waiting for the mountain fire to burn, they will not be able to run faster than the mountain fire.
Some people are still staring at the wildfires in the distance, but the experienced soldiers have already started to run, and the fires are burning very fast, if you are still here in a daze, then it is estimated that you will stay here for the rest of your life.
At this moment, Li Xiang also took his subordinates, riding horses to watch from a distance, and could see that there were many people running in the mountains and forests, this should be the Vietnamese army, these people have restrained us in the mountains and forests for many months, and also brought us more than 800 casualties, to achieve such a strategic goal, in fact, these people have already won the victory.
But now you have to flee for your life, your strategic goals can not be achieved, for these people on the mountain, Li Xiang also admires them from the bottom of his heart, can hold on to this environment for many months, you should really be worthy of this country, but it is a pity that your court is sorry for you and treats you as outcasts.
It is clear from Li Xiang's position that the people on the mountain are not running very fast, and some people are engulfed by the mountain fire, which is also a very normal thing, the spread of the mountain fire is quite fast, but these people are all yellow and thin, and they don't know how long they haven't eaten food, and their stomachs are estimated to be all those barks and the like, it is said that now even that little bit of bark has been eaten up on the mountain, how can they run through the mountain fire?
"Are we going to stop it on the south side?"
Huo Quzhi said eagerly, his people have also suffered a lot in the past few months, and now it is finally time to harvest, and after killing you all, we can also pay tribute to our brothers who have returned to heaven.
"Sometimes a blind war is not necessarily the right thing to do, let them run back, after running back, there will be no benefit to the southern court, but it will bring fear over, I believe that the southern court will not let them go, and then there may be a confrontation between the two sides, ordering our people to continue to burn the mountains, burn the entire jungle for me, and not give them any room to survive."
In this era, there is no such thing as environmental protection, after Li Xiang's order was issued, the soldiers began to light fires around, if the woods are still there, then I am afraid that someone will attack us here, and it will be a difficult thing at that time, so we will simply come to the bottom of the kettle and burn all your hidden mountains and forests.
As for the issue of greening, there is no hurry, the wildfires are inexhaustible, and the spring breeze blows and grows.
In a few years, the mountain will be green again.
Li Xiang When they stopped attacking, the people near the mountains and forests were not idle, they knew that this was the last time to make money, so on the way down the mountain, they continued to ambush this army, four hundred catties of grain per person, Li Xiang lowered the number of exchange for grain again, but even so, it was a year's worth of food for two strong laborers, if it was old, weak, sick and disabled, it might be enough for three people.
So they must not let go of this opportunity, they must seize the last opportunity to earn food, for the behavior of these people, Li Xiang really doesn't know what to say, in short, none of these guys do serious things, if these people can do something serious, maybe the family will not be so poor.
Many Datang soldiers are also dumbfounded, when you deal with us, you don't seem to be so energetic, how can you deal with your own people so attentively? Is it really for the 400 catties of grain?
The mountain fire here has almost burned half of the sky red, and the people of the Vietnamese court have also received the news, and they don't know what to say, in such a situation, there is no way to continue to fight, that is, they don't know where the army on the mountain has come down, if they can be co-opted, they can also have more cannon fodder in the next battle.
For three whole days, I don't know how much the mountains and forests were burned, even in the south of Vietnam, there was some black smoke floating in the sky, you can imagine how big the mountain fire burned this time, the king of Vietnam stood on the roof and looked at the north, where he could never go back.
"Do you think we need to resist?"
The king of Vietnam said very sadly, looking at the black smoke in the sky, as if he saw his own fate, he continued to fight with the Tang army, and his heart was really bottomless.
The Prime Minister was standing next to him, not knowing what to say, when someone persuaded him to surrender before, he was killed by this guy in front of him, if we said the same, would he also be killed?
The prime minister of a country is basically a person from a big family, which lasts for hundreds of years, and almost has all kinds of relationships with the royal family, such people can say whatever they want, and naturally they don't have to worry about the emperor asking for their lives, but we were appointed temporarily, and the foundation is not so deep at all, and it is really possible to be killed if you talk casually.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Vietnam will definitely not be able to hold on, but we people can surrender and have a good position, but you may not be able to vote, if you surrender, can the Tang Dynasty leave your life?
You are different from those monarchs who surrendered, people didn't let the Tang army spend so much, because of your stubbornness, the Tang army suffered a lot of losses in the north, and the Tang people looked at the number of their losses the most, even if you want to surrender, I'm afraid people won't treat you well.
The king of Vietnam also thought of this, so when he raised his head again, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and he would not hand over the whole country to the Tang Dynasty for burial......
