Chapter 112: Repercussions
Liang Zheng was still in a daze.
He was hit hard this time.
The 80,000 soldiers in Mangshan were all carefully selected by him, and with a long period of training, they could serve as the vanguard troops and represent the Jin State in the south and north.
But in less than a day's effort, the whole army was wiped out, and that was his own hard work for many years!
Those who died were also compatriots of the Jin Kingdom!
Ge Hong continued: "If I were Zhao Changqing, I would not be in a hurry to send troops when I came from afar, which requires a delicate control of human nature in order to be sure to do this."
Ben Shuai guessed that this Zhao Changqing must have understood Ben Shuai's steady and steady temperament, and under empathy, it was expected that Ben Shuai would not think that he could rush to send troops, so he decided to send a large army to rescue Zhao Yun.
It's just that Ben Shuai can't figure out that Zhao Yun's blocked water is impassable, how did he reach a consensus with Zhao Yun to break through at noon today?
If there is no consensus, then all this is too much of a coincidence, right? In the secret music of the few Wei army scouts that were intercepted before, this matter is not written!
However, saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, this Zhao Changqing can no longer be measured with common sense. Moreover, he so mercilessly annihilated our army, without leaving a single prisoner, that the commander guessed that he was deliberately trying to provoke us.
However, Ben Shuai just let him get his wish! Ben Shuai wanted to meet him in person and see what else was surprising about this King of Wei Qi. ”
After hearing Ge Hong's speech, Liang Zheng recovered from his grief and indignation, and said: "Marshal, please give 50,000 horses to the last general, and the last general will go to the Qingzhou border pass to call for battle, and meet that Zhao Changqing!"
Ge Hong glanced at him and said indifferently: "This matter is not urgent, you just encountered a setback, and you need to calm down and rest for a few days." Ben Shuai estimated that Zhao Changqing was at this time, and he wished that we would go to call the battle.
So forgive him for a few days, just wait for the army in the rear to arrive completely, after all, after investigation, I learned that there are 400,000 troops in Qingzhou. ”
Liang Zheng was stunned for a moment, feeling something bad.
The truth is just as he thought, after Ge Hong knew that Mangshan was defeated, he decided not to reuse Liang Zheng.
80,000 horses, saying that they were completely annihilated, were completely annihilated, which shows how scattered this army is on weekdays, and how unbearable it is to arrange troops.
But if you can master some of the art of the formation, you will not be annihilated by all 80,000 horses.
However, from this incident, Ge Hong understood one fact, that is, the combat power of the Qingzhou Army of Wei State was very high.
"Ladies and gentlemen, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and in the battle of Mangshan, although we lost 80,000 horses, Zhao Changqing's loss was not small.
Don't forget, the 50,000 elite armored iron cavalry under Zhao Yun are almost completely damaged, and the army we arranged in Mangshan is mostly infantry.
Thinking about it this way, we are actually not a loss. Now, please be in good spirits, the war between us and Wei has just begun.
His Majesty the Emperor meant that Ben Shuai only had to be patient and keep an eye on the movements of the Wei army, but Ben Shuai knew that you were unwilling to let the Chu army occupy the great credit of this day.
Therefore, please believe that this commander will definitely lead you to earn enough military merits and establish a great cause!"
Although Ge Hong is a Confucian general, he has great ambitions, and as a child of a serious Jin family, it is necessary for him to make some achievements.
And the death of the 80,000 pioneers in Mangshan, he is ready to cover the past with any words, after all, in his heart, these 80,000 people are like a bunch of leeks, in the face of great interests, it will seem insignificant and dispensable.
He is even cold-blooded than Zhao Changqing.
Here in the border city of Qingzhou, the army that participated in the battle of Mangshan has gone down to rest.
Before that, Zhao Changqing also asked Zhao Yun to command all the cavalry in Qingzhou, a total of 130,000 horses, in front of all the soldiers.
If it weren't for the fact that it would take a lot of money and energy to train a cavalry, sometimes Zhao Changqing really wanted to make a million cavalry, swept the entire Wei State, and finally ascended the throne as emperor.
After Zhao Yun heard this order, he couldn't believe it, he was rewarded instead of being punished, the prince treated me so well, I must repay it in the future!
After the First Battle of Mangshan, for two or three days in a row, there was no action between the Wei and Jin dynasties.
Zhao Changqing still wondered, is Jin Jun planning to swallow his anger?
Qi County, Qingzhou.
The princess of Chu was dressed as a man, and she was hanging out in the market with her personal maid Xiaolan, and after coming to a teahouse because of thirst, she heard that Zhao Changqing showed his might at the border.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi has a sword and a sword, and he is like a no-man's land among the enemy troops in Mangshan, and after a tragic battle, he finally rescued General Zhao Yun..."
Hearing the rumors that made people think of false rumors, Mi Yue suddenly felt a pain in her heart, as if she felt that something bad had happened in the dark, and her mind couldn't calm down.
How dangerous it is for him to rush into the enemy line alone!
He's going to be fine, right?
Mi Yue began to think crankily, when she was very concerned about a person, her IQ was negative.
Because she was worried about Zhao Changqing's safety, she planned to go to Zhuge Liang to ask for clarification, so that she could settle her mind.
On the way back again, she heard passers-by on the side of the road from time to time talking about how His Royal Highness King Qi was martial arts, and the more others praised her, the more she couldn't let go of this heart in her heart.
When she came to Zhuge Liang's mansion, she saw several soldiers packing his luggage, and after reporting her identity, she saw Zhuge Liang, but saw that he was busy, so she asked:
"Sir, this is?"
Zhuge Liang put down the work in his hand and said: "The money and food needed by the prince to go out on the expedition have basically been prepared, and Liang has nothing to do if he stays in Qi County, so he plans to rush to the border today to help the prince." ”
Mi Yue asked again, "Why are you so anxious to leave, but what happened to the prince?"
Zhuge Liang first shook his head, seeing Mi Yue's anxious look, he couldn't bear to be deceived, and sighed: "The prince has just arrived in the border city, and the army has not rested in time, so he made dangerous moves, and he couldn't wait to personally lead the army to attack Mangshan and rescue General Zhao Yun."
Although the battle was a great victory, the enemy was completely annihilated. But in this battle, the prince exposed two fatal flaws, one of which is to use danger, regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers, but rushed to attack Mangshan, if Mangshan asked for help at that time, the prince will suffer a big loss.
Second, love to be the first, as a prince, the supreme commander of the three armies, should have sat in the rear, but the prince prefers to be the first in every battle.
If I am an enemy and send several generals to set up an ambush to lure the prince, then the prince's life will be at risk!
These two shortcomings are enough to make the prince stumble into a thousand hatreds. Therefore, Liang must rush to the border city as soon as possible, otherwise, once something goes wrong with the prince, it will not only be Qingzhou that will suffer, but the entire Wei State!"
Hearing Zhuge Liang's remarks, Mi Yue was taken aback.
She bit her lip and frowned, as if she was thinking about something, and when she had thought about it, she said, "Sir, can I go with you?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "If you go, the prince will only be distracted, which is not conducive to the battle situation, not to mention that the identity of the princess is different, if it is passed out, it will affect the prince." ”
Mi Yue knew that this was the result, she took a deep breath, her heart was beating at a rapid pace, she was really worried about Zhao Changqing's safety.
This man is really not easy.
It's too hard in this life.
When you are young, you must not only hide yourself and hide yourself, so that you have no worries about your life.
Until now, I have to sacrifice my life for the country and the people.
A man like him has such an experience, but it is not easy to maintain an ancient heart that loves the people like a son.
She bowed to Zhuge Liang and said: "Mr. Miyue must protect the safety of the prince, at this moment, not only the people of Qingzhou and the society of Wei are inseparable from him, but even Miyue... I can't afford to lose him. ”
After Zhao Changqing left, she suffered a little from gains and losses, often remembering what happened that night, and listening to others, this feeling was actually a kind of liking.
Although until now, Mi Yue is not sure whether she likes him or not, it stands to reason that this man bullies himself so much and treats himself so badly, he should hate him.
But when she thought of his heroic appearance when he stood up to the sky for the country and the people, or fantasized about his bloody battlefield to protect the safety of a place, she couldn't hate him.
Actually, whether you like it or love, or you don't have both, it doesn't matter in this day and age, what matters is how you feel.
It feels like it's in place, and everything falls into place.
Today from eight o'clock to nine o'clock in the evening, I have the opportunity to code words, readers, I'm really sorry, I love you, Mo Da
