Chapter 183: The War Is Over?
(Add a note, there will be large-scale wars in the later period, so I won't continue to write about it later.) ļ¼
Early the next morning, Jiang Lin was in the house.
Yang Yizhi sat in the center, his expression extremely complicated.
"Your Highness," said the scout, with a tired expression, "our army has been heavily fenced around the camp, but without warning, the heavy rain of last night caused the water level to rise again, cutting off the connection between our camps.
They attacked the camp in the north first, and the timing was completely unexpected. ā
"What about your scouts?" Yang Yizhi asked angrily, "Could it be that they didn't see anything?" Didn't give you any warnings? ā
The bloodied scout shook his head. "It's raining too loudly!"
"The rain is too loud to hear, are you blind? Nothing to see! Yang Yizhi's generals said angrily, "Pass my order, gouge out their eyes, and give them to the substitute scouts," told him.
"Hopefully four eyes can see better than two... If he still can't, then the next person will have six eyes. ā
"When is the night attack?" Yang Yizhi asked again.
"When the time comes," replied tiredly. "The forward is led by the general named Liu Mo, who cut down our guards and clears the fence so that the main force can attack.
By the time our men came to their senses, the opposing cavalry had already jumped over the ditch and rushed into the camp with swords and torches in hand.
I slept in Xizhai, between two rivers. When our men heard the fight and saw that the tent was on fire, General Li led everyone onto the boat and tried to row to the other side to rescue them.
But as soon as I got on the boat, I found a large enemy army on the north bank of the Jianghun River! I saw with my own eyes that one boat was smashed to pieces, the other three overturned, and the people on it were all swept into the river and drowned!
Nanzhai was commanded by General Zhang, and when he saw that the adjacent positions were lost, he led his 2,000 spearmen and 2,000 archers to retreat westward in an orderly manner. ā
Yang Yizhi's face was so gloomy, "Enough, retreat!" ā
The scout immediately obeyed the order and left.
"Where did they get their troops?" One of Yang Yizhi's subordinates looked incredulous.
"The one outside the city." Yang Yizhi told him. "The siege team yesterday afternoon!"
"What? How is this possible! The main general is Bai Chengzong? The general couldn't believe his ears at all, "How could this man do such a crazy thing when he is cautious?" He won't be afraid that I'll go out of the city!" ā
He wanted to say that Liu Mo only had 40,000 troops, and there were 30,000 elite soldiers of the Zhou Dynasty in Jianglin City, and the main force of Great Xia on the other side of the river could not pass.
Yang Yizhi smiled, the main general is not Bai Chengzong, but Liu Mo!
I've underestimated you again, you've mastered my temperament and used it to bet I won't dare to go out of the city!"
"The true god of war must not only be familiar with military books, but also know how to be flexible on the battlefield." Yang Yizhi told him, "This time, he has made our personalities clear, and it is expected that we will not dare to come out."
Take control of the situation and make such a bold choice. ā
"Your Highness, don't let others be angry and destroy your own prestige!"
"To give you such an opportunity, do you dare to give up the natural danger of Jiang Lincheng and go out of the city to fight?"
"Your Royal Highness, Iā" The general muttered. Dare to ask Your Highness, how should we respond? ā
Yang Yizhi was silent for a long time, then slowly raised his head and announced: "Withdraw the army and fight again next year!" ā
"The outcome of the two battles does not determine the success or failure of the entire war," said one Zhou general, "and we are far from defeated." I'd love to compete with this kid named Liu Mo on the battlefield in person. ā
"Our opponent is not this kid." Yang Yizhi told him, "Their main force has crossed the river, and a protracted battle is not good for our army!" ā
"Your Royal Highness, our army's food and grass are enough to support two years."
"What if the enemy cuts off the Ningxi Corridor? What should I do? ā
The general of the Zhou Dynasty snorted contemptuously, "The soldiers are coming to block the water and cover the earth, what are you afraid of!" ā
Yang Yizhi rolled his eyes, "No one will question your bravery, but this king has made up his mind, so there is no need to say more!" ā
After speaking, he glanced into the distance, "Liu Mo, Liu Mo, do you think you won?" Hmph, the contest between you and me has just begun! ā
~~~
After the battle was over, Liu Mo rode a tall war horse through the field and corpses, and Zhu Min and Lu Sheng followed closely behind with their subordinates, talking and laughing with each other.
He rode across the battlefield, dying horses looking up and neighing at him, and the wounded moaning and begging for mercy. A large number of Bactrian troops who were dedicated to relieving the wounded shuttled through the process, harvesting countless heads from the dead and the dying.
There were also young soldiers running behind them, who plucked arrows from the corpses and put them in baskets for reuse.
A fire broke out in the city of Jianglin, and wisps of black smoke surged and rolled into the clear blue sky.
"Did he really retire?" Liu Mo still couldn't believe it.
This problem has been repeatedly confirmed, and Zhou Chaozhen has withdrawn!
Before Yang Yizhi evacuated, he left 2,000 troops to garrison Jianglincheng, in order to contain the army of Great Xia.
The eldest prince made meritorious service and let the six princes attack the city, and he led his troops to pursue all the way.
This guy will definitely not give up, and the next offensive will be even more ferocious!
This war is nearing the end and ending with the victory of the Great Xia Dynasty, but Liu Mo is worried, because in this war, he has too many "problems".
There is not much difference between the pattern of the Jianglincheng Mansion and the Rongcheng County Government, but it has undergone the baptism of war, and now it is full of holes and devastation.
There were two gold-armored guards standing in the hall of the palace, one left and one right, looking at the gate.
Liu Mo recognized the captain of the guard of the six princes, "Your Highness is here?" ā
"It's in the hall, Lord Liu!"
He walked into the palace and immediately saw the six princes.
"I've seen Your Highness!" Liu Mo saluted him.
The sixth prince looked at Liu Mo meaningfully, and then said, "Your courage is really big!" ā
"Your Highness, which one are you referring to?" Liu Mo tried to bypass the topic, "I left five hundred people outside Jianglin City to confuse the enemy army, and I guess they won't dare to go out of the city to fight!" ā
"You did a great job with this decision!" The sixth prince first performed Liu Mo, "However, this king asked about a few other things!" ā
"A couple of things... Do you want to say it now? Liu Mo frowned when he heard this.
"If you don't have a good memory, this king will give you a wake-up call!" The sixth prince said while pointing to Bai Chengzong on the side, "In addition to doing business, making salt, and fighting. Liu Mo, you can also heal.
The military doctor can't even see that it's the wind and cold, but you can see it?
Hmph, you are guilty of the following crimes, imprison General Bai, and falsely pass on military orders. Who gave you the guts? ā
Liu Mo immediately bowed down and said, "The crimes of his subordinates deserve death!" ā
The Sixth Prince stared at him for a moment, so cold that he shuddered. "It's not enough to die, it's enough to give you three feet of white silk!"
"Your Highness, the disaster is for me and the others to break together, whether we want to punish or kill, count me Lao Zhu as one!" Zhu Min immediately knelt down and said, "It's just that the last general has been in the army for decades, and it's the first time I've heard that he will be punished for such military exploits." Defy! Defy! ā
"Yes, the surname Lu is not convinced!" Lu Sheng immediately chimed in, "Your Highness wants to kill the last general, and the last general is not a good man if he frowns, but Gao Qi's beast can also atone for his sins if he commits such a great crime that has lost his conscience... I'm not convinced!"
"Good, good, good. If you three want to die, this king will fulfill you! The sixth prince's face sank, "Someone! ā
