Chapter 165: Except for the Yuanrong Clan's Iron Horse
Immediately afterward, everyone heard the rumbling sound of iron hooves behind them, and when they looked back, the dust was flying, and hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen quickly outflanked them.
But seeing Li Leng's 200,000 army converging with the army of Northern Xinjiang, the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong tribe was afraid and did not dare to get too close.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and they really admired Li Leng's keen judgment.
If it weren't for Li Leng's forcible order just now to let go of the thousands of Yuan Rong iron cavalry, quickly intersperse this plain, and quickly converge with the northern Xinjiang army in Baiyun Prefecture City, I am afraid that they will fall into a bitter battle with the Yuan Rong iron cavalry at this time, and I don't know how many people will die under the iron cavalry of the Yuan Rong tribe at that time.
This time, Tang Shu was also careful, and found that the situation of the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry was wrong, and did not order the vanguard army to pursue the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry, but immediately sent scouts to report the truth to Li Lengyu, which saved the situation that the army was besieged by the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry.
Li Leng thought highly of Tang Chop, and had the idea of reusing Tang Chop.
Geng Zhong heard that the reinforcements had arrived, and he was pleasantly surprised to go out of the city with King Yu to greet him.
"Haha, it's the tenth brother!Yo, and the second brother, great, with you here, I feel much more at ease, and the crisis in northern Xinjiang can be solved." When King Yu saw Li Leng and Li Muran, his expression was slightly stunned, but he quickly returned to normal, and hugged the two of them very happily.
"The ministers see His Royal Highnesses the Second Prince and the Ten Princes. Geng Zhong, the general of Northern Xinjiang, bowed slightly, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"General Geng doesn't need to be polite. Li Muran expressed his politeness to Geng Zhong to some extent, after all, Geng Zhong is a general in Northern Xinjiang, with a high position and power, and he can't be offended easily.
But Li Leng's face was not so good-looking.
He is the commander of the Northern Xinjiang and has the power of life and death, but this general of the Northern Xinjiang dares to disobey the yang and the yin, which is simply looking for death.
According to the pre-planned plan, Geng Zhong should send an army to the Guanding River to meet them, but the northern army was indifferent.
If it weren't for his keen reaction and sensing the lure of the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry, he urgently ordered the reinforcements to quickly move closer to Baiyun Prefecture City, but I was afraid that they would have fallen into the heavy encirclement of the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry at this time.
Why didn't Geng Zhong send someone to meet them? Did he want to see 200,000 reinforcements caught in the encirclement of the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry?
Geng Zhong said: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince." He was about to stand up straight, when he suddenly heard a cold voice coming: "Why don't you send someone to pick us up?"
Geng Zhong looked over at the sound, it was the tenth prince Li Leng, his expression was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Li Leng to scold him in public, he was unhappy, but because of Li Leng's identity and status, he didn't dare to offend Li Leng, bowed down and said: "Tell His Royal Highness the Ten Princes, Baiyunzhou City is surrounded by the Yuanrong Iron Cavalry, and the last general can't send people to receive reinforcements." The reason for this is best known to His Royal Highness King Yu. ”
"Hehe......" King Yu smiled and said, "Tenth brother, you really can't blame General Geng for this matter. We have already received Guangxun, and we know that 200,000 reinforcements are coming today. General Geng also sent a vanguard general to lead an army of 50,000 to meet you, but I don't know why, the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan knew the information of the reinforcements, and sent a large number of iron cavalry to besiege Baiyunzhou City. These 50,000 vanguard troops, attacking several times in a row, were all beaten back by the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan. ”
"Oh, yes, then why didn't I see any traces of a great battle in Baiyun Prefecture City?" Li Leng's eyes were fierce and terrifying, and there was a murderous aura rolling in the depths of his eyes.
"Yes, the battlefield has been cleaned, and the tenth brother can't see the traces of the battle, which is also a normal thing. King Yu sneered a few times and said unhappily, "I also want to ask the tenth brother, how did the Yuanrong clan iron cavalry know about such a confidential matter of reinforcements supporting the northern frontier? I suspect that it was the tenth brother's people who leaked it, after all, we only know when the reinforcements will arrive and where they will respond, and we don't know the details." ”
"Brother Huang has some doubts, he should pass on Guangxun Chang'an City and make it clear to his father, why do you want to tell me here?" Li sneered, not giving King Yu any face.
The angry King Yu's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "I will explain this matter to my father." ”
Li Leng lazily cared about whether King Yu would report this matter to the Son of Heaven, and he also understood that if the Northern Xinjiang army did not accept their reinforcements, it would not have much impact on Geng Zhong, and at most he would take down a vanguard general, but it would make no sense at all, but it would affect the stability of the army's morale.
"Divine Decree...... You have already received it!" Li Leng diverted the topic, did not continue to dwell on the matter of the Northern Xinjiang Army not receiving reinforcements, and said coldly, "The Son of Heaven has an order to order me to take over the Northern Xinjiang Army and be fully responsible for all military and political affairs in Northern Xinjiang. ordered the second emperor's brother Li Muran to be the supervisor of the Northern Xinjiang Army. His Royal Highness the Imperial Highness of the Imperial Commander and Geng Zhong, the general of Northern Xinjiang, all obeyed my orders and commands. Eighth Emperor Brother, General Geng, is there anything you don't know?"
King Yu and Geng Zhong's faces were not good-looking, but the Son of Heaven had a holy decree, and Li Leng had the power of life and death, no matter how unhappy they were, they had to accept this reality.
King Yu said lightly: "Tenth brother rest assured, my father has a holy decree, we will definitely follow the holy decree, from today onwards, the imperial brother is willing to obey all the orders of the tenth brother." ”
"Geng Zhong is also willing to obey the military orders of His Royal Highness the Ten Princes. Geng Zhong bowed and said reluctantly.
"I don't care if you listen to my orders or not, the holy purpose is this, from now on, I am the commander of the northern Xinjiang, whoever dares to disobey my orders will be killed!" Li Leng said murderously.
King Yu and Geng Zhong trembled in their hearts, they felt the incomparably murderous aura on Li Leng's body, and they also knew that if they dared to disobey Li Leng's order, the two of them would definitely be killed by Li Leng.
The generals are not subject to military orders abroad, Li Leng is the commander of the northern Xinjiang, and if he really wants to kill them, I am afraid that the Son of Heaven, who is thousands of miles away, will not be able to save them.
Several people entered Baiyun Prefecture City, and at the general's mansion, Li Leng convened a meeting of generals of five grades and above, from which several new appointments and dismissals were announced.
"Tang Shu was appointed as the new vanguard general of the Northern Xinjiang Army, and his grade was the third grade. Li Leng said word by word, "Lead the vanguard army." ”
"Huh!?" Tang was stunned for a moment, then showed ecstasy on his face, walked out, knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "The last general is ordered, and he is willing to be loyal to His Royal Highness the Ten Princes, and he will die with all his might." ”
The faces of the others changed, and they didn't expect Li Leng's first step to be so big, and he directly won the vanguard general of the Northern Xinjiang Army, which was the person of Geng Zhong, the general of the Northern Xinjiang.
