193 The choice of returning to the Tang Army
Feng Feisha and the Demon Sect have just formed a blood feud, at this time they only hate to kill the people of the Demon Sect, and the target that Yuan Jinling gave her this time is just a group of dim-witted old men who can't see current affairs clearly, a group of old men from the former dynasty who want to restore the country, and take refuge in the Demon Sect. Such a role made Feng Feisha a target, which really made her feel a little uncomfortable.
But she knows the meaning of this, Yuan Jinling just wants to let the whole world see their attitude, let the whole world see the fate of the betrayer, and their determination and ability to punish the evil and eliminate the adulterer.
If someone slashes you, you must return the sword. Let the enemy and the evil man pay for his actions. It is also for those who support and believe in themselves, firm in their choices, and have more confidence in the future.
"Although there are only a few dead and old people in Danyang City, there are a lot of offerings to the gate lords of Chu County, among which there are some masters, and after so many years of operation, there should also be some means. You still have to be careful, so let's go, Jiang Sen will go with you, and the two of you can take care of it. ”
Yu Jinling silently calculated in her heart and said.
"With the strength of the two of you, there is no opponent under the Yuqing Realm, and even if you encounter it, you can get out. ”
"Him?"
Feng Feisha glanced at Jiang Sen next to him and said with disgust.
"I'll just go on my own, and I'll drag my feet with this guy. ”
"What did you say?"
Jiang Sen immediately screamed in excitement.
"I've let you recently, is there something wrong with you!"
"What do you say? I use you to get used to? What do I have to use you to get used to?"
Xuanbai watched these two people quarrel again, and couldn't help but feel a little big about the way they got along. At this moment, he suddenly saw that Yuan Jinling was giving him a look.
Seeing that Xuan Bai noticed herself, Yuan Jinling said deliberately.
"Bai, do you want to go to Danyang City with them to play, or go with me to support Tang Wang and them. ”
Although Xuanbai is introverted, he is not a wooden person, and as soon as Yuan Jinling spoke, he knew Yuan Jinling's intentions. Xuan Bai looked at Jiang Sen and Feng Feisha, who were still arguing over there, and thought to himself, of course he wanted to be an adult.
"I'll go with you. ”
Seeing that Xuan Bai understood what he meant, Yuan Jinling smiled heartily, turned to Jiang Sen and Feng Feisha and said.
"The situation ahead is not clear, let's act as soon as possible! ”
After speaking, Yuan Jinling pulled up Zhang Jianyi, stepped on his Dao sword, and then said to Jiang Sen and Feng Feisha, who were stunned because of their sudden farewell.
"Shiro and I are one step ahead. ”
After speaking, Yuan Jinling's sword flickered, and the Dao sword under his feet had already drifted away.
Xuan Bai arched his hand to the two people who had not yet reflected, and said, "Farewell." Then he walked into the ice crystals beside him, and disappeared in an instant.
"What's the situation!"
Feng Feisha looked at the Jin Ling who disappeared in the blink of an eye, and her brain couldn't keep up with the speed at which they left.
"As for being in such a hurry?"
Feng Feisha looked at Jiang Sen and complained.
But Jiang Sen seemed to see something, but how could he break it with such careful thinking.
"Well, it's worthy of being the person in charge, this action is different. We also have to hurry up, otherwise we will always fall into the Demon Sect, don't you notice that we have always been particularly passive? This is called not being able to catch up with one step, not being able to catch up with each step. Let's move first!"
Just when these young people took action, there were people in Chu County who were in a deep quagmire. This is not a group of two unlucky people, but a team, a heavy cavalry team in a hurry to return to the Central Plains.
At this moment, in front of these people, there is a quagmire that is difficult to trek, although it is not deep, but it has made their plan to quickly return to the Central Plains in vain.
They traveled thousands of miles, just to return to the Central Plains as soon as possible to coordinate defense, but they didn't want to be blocked by a river. I didn't expect that the gate lords of Chu County really didn't care about the lives of the people. In order to keep them on the south bank, they dug up the embankment and released the floodwater. These thousands of miles of Hongze did stop their 10,000 iron horses, but the people downstream suffered more than 100,000 because of this.
The river that was dug up is called the quicksand river, it is a rare river with a particularly large amount of mud in Chu County, the riverbed is silted and difficult to clear, and it has been diverted many times in history, and the people on both sides of the river have suffered a lot. Later, the state of Chu built embankments and dams on both banks, and the river was considered stable. The state of Chu has been building dams and dredging for hundreds of years, and the people on both sides of the strait are also grateful. It is because of the prestige of the Xiong clan in Chu that it is so high, and after being ruled by the Tang State for hundreds of years, there are still some people who claim to be the people of Chu.
Later, after the dam was destroyed in the Chu State, it was taken over by the gate valves in Chu County, and the prestige of these gate valves has increased day by day over the past few hundred years. If they hadn't always emphasized that they were the courtiers of the Xiong clan at the beginning, I'm afraid that many people would have forgotten the old country.
Everyone gathered around the old general, waiting for the elder to use his experience to choose a path for everyone.
The old and strong general is named Wei Tong, as a strong general who can still adhere to his principles under the pressure of the Tang King, and admonish the Tang King to the death, and has been in the army for many years, he is used to seeing the strong in the army of life and death. Of course, he wouldn't be confused by the setbacks in front of him, but he began to hesitate at this point.
He fought hard for thousands of years in the army and was ranked as a general. But he also exists mostly as a brave general, but whenever it comes to this kind of strategic decision-making, there will be someone who arranges it for them early.
Wei Tong shouted in his heart: "General Qing, if you were here, what would you choose?"
That's right, Wei Tong has always been one of the four great generals of the Tang Kingdom, the general under Qing Xiaogong. This time, the Tang Dynasty drove his own expedition, transferred half of the East Road Border Army, and transferred Qing Xiaogong away from the South Road Border Army that had been stationed, so that this god general, who was good at defense, led the halfway border army of the Eastern Front and guarded the East Road defense line of the Tang Dynasty.
Wei Tong looked at these Pao Ze brothers around him, he had been in the army for so many years, and he had already treated these people as his own brothers. Wei Tong has been by the side of the god general for so many years, and he has accumulated half a lifetime of experience, of course, he can't be a brave and unscrupulous person, if that's the case, everyone else won't be staring at him at this time.
After seeing the quagmire in front of him, Wei Tong intuitively came up with a plan, but this plan was so cruel that it could almost be seen as throwing everyone to death.
General, if you were here, what would you choose?
Wei Tong kept asking in his heart, as if he could really listen to his old man's thoughts.
"Old Wei, you are decided!
Everyone could see Wei Tong's hesitation, but they still gave him the greatest trust.
Fight!
Lao Wei finally made up his mind, and from this moment on, he threw away all distractions, and only said his intentions and methods and carried them out.
"The brothers have been stationed on the South Road for so long, and we are all too familiar with the situation in Chu County. This quicksand river was destroyed, and it turned out that it was also deduced under General Qing's hands. can be destroyed like this, obviously the old guy in Danyang City also knows the key. Since we didn't grab the river, then there is probably no place suitable for us to exercise in this thousands of miles of upstream and downstream. Besides, they dug this place, and they didn't care about digging another opening. We will not be fools looking for a ferry along the river, the enemy leaves a way for you, this daydream is unrealistic. ”
Wei Tong looked at the robe beside him, took a breath, and then said excitedly.
"Since it's not good for us to go back to the Central Plains, then fortunately we won't go back. Anyway, in Chu County, which we are most familiar with, we are in this most familiar battlefield, fighting with those unrighteous Xiaoxiao and the demon soldiers of the Southern Wilderness. ”
"As long as we fight well here, it can also disrupt the deployment of the Demon Sect and reduce the pressure on the Chang'an side, and in this way, we are relatively close to Your Majesty. If something happens, it's easier for us to take care of it. ”
As soon as they heard that they were close to His Majesty King Tang, these loyal soldiers immediately became excited. In the first place, they did not want to leave their monarch in that place where they were under attack, but now that they had not completed their plan, they were able to guard His Majesty's periphery, and these generals were extremely happy.
"Don't be too happy!"
Wei Tong felt the need to remind these people not to take this matter so lightly.
"If you don't rush back, it's already a bad order, if this battle doesn't work well, or if it is average, let's not go to see Your Majesty again, and judge ourselves on the spot!"
"Don't bring your past impressions of the lords of Chu County into the war that is about to start, since they can still hook up with the Demon Sect under the noses of you and me, and can instantly control the situation in Chu County, they are already out of our control. Naturally, our original information about these gates is no longer applicable, and they must have other powers that we don't know about. These guys have been cryptic for hundreds of years, and I want you to take it tactically seriously. ”
Hearing Wei Tong's words, everyone straightened up. Wei Tong's words made them blush in particular, those gate lords of Chu County were supposed to be under the surveillance of their southern border army. Chu County turned against the water, although His Majesty the Tang King did not reprimand, but they still knew it in their hearts, and this responsibility could not be shirked.
"Old Wei, just say what to do! We people must be careful, and we will definitely not embarrass my Datang again. ”
Wei Tong glanced at everyone, and then said.
"Don't be too optimistic about the current situation, now we are only a single cavalry, there is no other arms to cooperate, and there is no food and grass supply. At this time, it was in the hinterland of Chu County, surrounded by enemies, and there was no civilian base. First of all, it is a difficult task to provide for it, and secondly, our cavalry is suitable for field warfare, and we are not very good at attacking cities. ”
"So, we don't have much room for maneuver in strategy!"
