Chapter 170: The Advantage Is Me
"This traitor is actually dazed, and has deployed tens of thousands of troops on the plain before the Flying Tiger Pass, and wants to fight me to the death???"
In the tent of the imperial court's military camp, Liu Xi, the commander of the army, was stunned, listening to the information from the scouts, he almost couldn't believe that it was true.
Not only him, but at this moment, all the staff members and generals in the camp looked at each other in astonishment, almost thinking that they had heard the wrong thing.
In this world, how can there be such a stupid person? Don't use the male barrier, but come out to compete with them?
Moreover, this man's strength, according to the scouts, is only forty or fifty thousand people, and it is impossible for them to be their opponent in any way.
"According to our investigation, although the army of the traitors has forty or fifty thousand people, most of them are new recruits, and the formation is scattered and vulnerable."
The scouts looked respectful and told them all the information they had discovered.
"This thief..."
Liu Xi was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.
Before that, he had treated this traitor Fang Yuan as a great enemy, and he had used all kinds of preparations.
As a result, it's good now, this Fang Yuan doesn't seem to be worthy of him being so close to the enemy...
"Originally, General Ben thought that this thief was coercing the homeless, but in March, he could conquer the entire Yangzhou, and the art of war must not be underestimated..."
Liu Xi shook his head and sighed: "The officials in Yangzhou don't know what kind of waste they are, and they actually let this kind of person easily take the entire Yangzhou..."
"Perhaps, this thief has ulterior motives, and is deliberately setting up a trap to lure us to fight him in the plains?" At this moment, Liu Xi's son Liu Yao pondered for a moment and spoke.
"After getting out of the Flying Tiger Pass, there is flat ground everywhere, and it is useless for him to ambush any soldiers!"
Liu Xi got up, looked at the huge map in front of him, and sneered: "Moreover, even if this thief has any tricks, it will be difficult to defeat my 150,000 army." ”
"His thief army is just recruiting recruits trained by homeless people, even if the officers and soldiers in Yangzhou surrendered before, even if he is stupid at this moment, he will not dare to use it."
The people in the tent nodded in agreement.
The officials and soldiers, bathed by the emperor's grace for a long time, knew the majesty of the imperial court, and if they knew that the imperial court sent 150,000 troops to crusade against the rebellion, they would inevitably defect to the battle.
"And these recruits have only been training for two or three months, and even if they have some results, they can't be our opponents."
Liu Xi looked at the topographic map and immediately laughed: "No matter what, this battle is 150,000 against 50,000, elite soldiers against new soldiers, the advantage is mine, this battle will be won!" ”
Everyone nodded approvingly, and they all laughed at the moment.
In recent years, there have not been many military merits that are so easy to obtain.
Now, they have come here through a relationship, and they just take advantage of this credit to move up their position.
'In this battle, I may be able to win a knighthood...'
Thinking of this, Liu Xi's smile deepened.
"Go down, remember, any action of the thief army must be reported."
After everyone finished laughing, Liu Xi sent the scouts down to continue to explore the enemy's situation.
Although he knew in his heart that he had won, he could not be negligent yet.
'There are clouds in the book of war, first win and then fight, at this moment, I have also reached this realm..."
Thinking of the content of the book of war, Liu Xi realized that he only felt that his art of war had made great progress, as if he had an epiphany.
Now, he has indeed won, and the next thing is just to push the boat down the river and implement the victory.
Ten days passed.
The 150,000-strong army set out and finally came to the Great Plains before the Flying Tiger Pass three days ago.
At the highest point of the barracks, Liu Xi took his son's staff and members to observe the situation in Fang Yuan's barracks.
"Sure enough, it's just some recruits, although there are quite rules between the actions, but compared to our army, it's still far behind."
Liu Xi and the others looked at Fang Yuan's camp from afar, although they couldn't see it very clearly, and their vision was often blocked, but they still observed some situations.
"These soldiers, it seems, are all in armor, and I don't know how this traitor did it?"
Liu Yao's eyes were sharp, and he looked at the iron armor on the soldiers in Fang Yuan's barracks at this moment, his expression was a little surprised.
Since ancient times, iron armor can only be worn by elite soldiers, because iron armor is heavy, and it is quite difficult to build, even the army of the imperial court cannot all wear iron armor.
They naturally didn't know that Fang Yuan had Yi Dao True Power and all kinds of knowledge of several worlds, and it was only a matter of ease for him to create a strong and light iron armor.
"I have long heard that Yangzhou is rich, and now it seems that it really deserves its reputation."
Liu Xi looked at the flickering Fang Yuan military camp and immediately smiled: "However, if this is the reliance of this traitor, it would be too ignorant." ”
"Not to mention that we also have iron armor, even if we don't have iron armor, it will be easy for us to defeat these traitors."
As far as he knew, Fang Yuan had just taken advantage of the drought to brazenly raise troops to attack Jiankang, and only then did he take most of Yangzhou in one fell swoop.
Moreover, when he unified Yangzhou, someone from inside and outside opened the city gate for him, so Fang Yuan didn't fight a tough battle at all.
Now, there were no elite soldiers in Fang Yuan's army who had been tempered by the brutal battlefield, even if they had the advantage of weapons, they could not be his opponents.
"Pass the order, let the three armies get ready, and tomorrow at noon, you will have a showdown with the traitor Fang Yuan here."
Liu Xi waved his hand, immediately laughed, led people down from a high place, and returned to the camp tent to preside over the overall situation.
Tomorrow will be the time when they will prepare everything, and that will be the time for him to reap the fruits of victory.
'Seal the wife and the shadow... As long as this battle goes well, these are the things that are at your fingertips...'
Over the years, although there have often been homeless people in turmoil, but they are all petty fights, and they can't attract the attention of the superiors at all, and now, there is a rebel Fang Yuan, which shakes the government and the opposition, and this is my opportunity. ’
Liu Xi sighed with emotion, thinking of the price he paid to fight for this position, his eyes were slightly gloomy.
The next moment, Liu Xi smiled, although the price paid was a bit much, but he believed that it was all worth it.
The next day, noon.
"Whew!"
The horn was long and dull, with a solemn aura, resounding in front of the two armies.
"Knock knock!"
The sound of drums also sounded at this moment.
With the sound of trumpets and drums, on the plain, the two military formations were slowly approaching at this moment.
If it is hoped that the qi technique is here, you can see that the two military qi have turned into the shape of a dragon and tiger, and they are circling and clashing at this moment.
However, according to common sense, luck is the embodiment of the strength of things in the dark, and good luck means strength.
At this moment, Liu Xi's army had 150,000, while Fang Yuan's army was only 50,000, and his strength was not Liu Xi's opponent.
But now, the military forces of the two sides are fighting each other, but it is difficult to distinguish between them.
In the middle of the army formation, on the high platform, Liu Xi stretched out his hand and ordered: "Kill!" ”
The earth trembled, trembling under the galloping of countless men and horses, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.
Arrows rained down, and the two armies collided together.
"Oh? There are such warriors. ”
Seeing that there were ten warriors in Fang Yuan's army, Liu Xi couldn't help but be surprised.
But the next moment, Liu Xi showed a sneer on his face: "It's just a few hundred people, is this what you rely on?" ”
Seeing that his 150,000 army was divided into three roads, besieging Fang Yuan's army from three directions on the left and right sides of the front, Liu Xi smiled at his son Liu Yao: "This thief has no power to return to the sky, our army has won!" ”
Liu Yao's face was full of red light, with a smile of joy and joy, and he was about to speak, when he heard a series of loud noises.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The dull voice like spring thunder suddenly sounded on the battlefield at this moment.
Shout!
A whistling sound sounded from a rapid speed, and in Liu Yao's blank gaze, a round ball flew suddenly along a beautiful arc.
Boom!
The next moment, Liu Xi, who was laughing, exploded like a watermelon hitting the ground, and the flesh and blood sprinkled Liu Yao's face.
