Chapter 226: Breaking the Camp and Taking Prisoners
Li Jing returned to Hongyun Pass with the dejected winged immortal Peng Peng, first summoned a group of disciples and nephews to the front, and ordered them to salute Peng Peng one by one.
Peng Peng's mind was simple, and when he suddenly saw so many juniors calling him "uncle" or "uncle", he forgot his previous depression, and agreed very proudly while grinning and laughing.
After Qunxiao and Peng Peng met each other, Li Jing convened the generals to discuss the matter of breaking the enemy.
Ding Ce said: "After these several defeats, although Deng Jiugong's troops have not been damaged, his morale has fallen to the bottom, and this is a good opportunity to break the enemy in a battle. Ben Shuai thought that tonight he could divide his troops in three ways and break through Deng Jiugong's camp in one fell swoop!"
After listening to Ding Ce's words, all the generals geared up and asked Li Jing for battle.
Li Jing pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Then ask Marshal Ding to divide the troops and send generals!"
Ding Ce first ordered Gao Ming and Gao Jue to investigate the reality of the enemy camp, and then ordered Li Qingli, Yuan Ye, and Nezha to be the middle lane, Chen Qi and Zheng Lun to be the left wing, and Jin Zha Muzha to be the right outpost, each ordering 30,000 elite soldiers, and preparing to wait for Gao Ming and Gao Jue to report back the arrangements of the enemy camp, and then take advantage of the night to rob the Tang camp.
When Ding Ce's arrangement was completed, Peng Peng on the side coughed dryly, got up and said to Li Jing: "Brother, can you succeed in begging you?"
Li Jing looked at his expression, so he guessed a few points, and said with a smile: "Brother Xian has something to say, although in the future, as long as Brother Fool can do it, naturally everything will follow." ”
Peng Peng said: "The younger brother is still the same sentence, when I was in the Chengtang camp, Deng Jiugong treated me warmly, and this favor cannot be repaid, so the younger brother wants to ask my brother to leave Deng Jiugong's life." ”
Li Jing said with a smile: "Deng Jiu, the tiger general of the world, the foolish brother originally intended to surrender to him. If the virtuous brother doesn't say it, the foolish brother won't harm Deng Jiugong's life. ”
After that, in front of Peng Peng, he issued an order to everyone to capture Deng Jiugong alive.
After dark. The three people quietly went out of the city and approached the Chengtang camp. Li Qingli in the middle of the road ordered a letter cannon to be fired, and the three people and horses attacked together to break into the enemy camp. Since Gao Ming and Gao Jue had already clearly understood the reality of the Chengtang camp, the three groups of men and horses arranged by Ding Ce all broke in from the weakest part of the enemy camp, like three sharp swords piercing the key places of the army.
Because of the defeat in these days, the soldiers on the Chengtang side have long been uneasy, if it weren't for Deng Jiugong leading the army for many years and governing the army in a good way, the army's heart would have been scattered. And tonight, Li Jing's three-way raid became the last straw that broke the camel's back. With the sound of killing, most of the Cheng Tang soldiers had no heart to resist, and they all rushed around in the firelight like headless flies, but they rushed their companions who had the heart to fight to the death.
Deng Jiugong had already learned that the enemy army had stolen the camp, but the chaos had become difficult to control, so he had to try his best to gather people and horses and gather in the Chinese army. Wait for the three-way people on Li Jing's side to arrive. Deng Jiugong had gathered nearly 30,000 horses.
Li Qingli saw Deng Jiugong in front of him, and immediately shouted: "Deng Jiugong, now that you are gone, why don't you get off the man?"
Deng Jiugong shouted angrily: "This handsome eats the king's Lu." How can you surrender to you rebels!"
Nezha behind Li Qingli was furious and urged Hot Wheels to step forward. The fire-tipped spear stabbed Deng Jiugong in the throat.
Deng Jiugong parried with a horizontal knife and fought with Nezha.
Li Qingli reminded behind him: "Nezha." Don't forget Daddy's commands!"
"Got it!" Nezha replied without replying, but a fire-tipped spear made him more and more anxious.
Deng Xiu urged the horse to dance the gun to help his father. Yuan Ye rushed out of the stabbing and stopped him with a horizontal iron rod.
Tailuan saw that Deng Jiugong's father and son had already started with the enemy generals, and raised his big sword and said to the soldiers and generals around him: "Marshal Deng has been treating me well every day, and today I should live and die with the marshal, kill!"
In the chaos, those who were still willing to obey the orders of Deng Jiugong's generals gathered here were naturally loyal and brave people who died bravely, and when they heard the words, they echoed wildly, and rushed towards the enemy army several times their own without fear of death.
"Formation!" Li Qingli shouted the order, over the years, Ding Ce has been using the "Eight Formations" taught by Li Jing to perform the soldiers, and he has brought forth the new and derived infinite changes. The space in the barracks is limited, and the two sides are within easy reach, so naturally it is impossible to set up the entire large array. However, with Li Qingli's order, the soldiers will have more than 100 people, as few as seven or eight people, relying on the tacit understanding cultivated during the usual drills, each of them formed a scattered small formation in the eight formations, which also exerted a lot of power, coupled with the advantage of bullying more and less, almost as soon as they made contact, they suppressed the enemy to death.
And the generals under Deng Jiugong were naturally cooked by Li Qingli and others.
Zheng Lun and Chen Qi were so angry in the first battle that they finally found a target to vent at this moment, one found Sun Yanhong, and the other stared at Tailuan. They all learned the experience and lessons of the last fight, and they didn't entangle with each other at all, and they used unique tricks as soon as they came up. With "hum" and "ha", where the two white lights and a yellow gas went, Sun Yanhong and Tailuan immediately fell unconscious.
The other generals under the command of Deng Jiugong were also not the opponents of Li Qingli, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, and others, and each of them fought a few times, and was defeated and captured by the opponent either by martial arts or by magic weapons.
Nezha, who had not yet decided the winner after dozens of rounds with Deng Jiu, saw that everyone had won, so he immediately withdrew the seven-foot Chaotian Aya from the treasure bag, shook his hand and turned into a red glow in the sky, wrapped Deng Jiugong and lifted it from the horse, and then shook it and fell to the ground, and took it with his life.
At the same time as Nezha succeeded, Yuan Ye also knocked down Deng Xiu's silver spear with a stick, and swept him off the horse with a sweep.
Seeing that the marshal and all the generals were captured, Cheng Tang's soldiers finally lost their last trace of fighting spirit, and dropped their weapons and gave up the battle amid the shouts of Li Jing's generals "those who surrender will not die".
Leaving Zheng Lun, Chen Qi, Jin Zha, and Mu Zha to lead the men and horses to guard the prisoners, Li Qingli took Yuan Ye and Nezha, and escorted Deng Jiugong into the city to see Li Jing.
Seeing Deng Jiugong standing under the hall with his arms tied behind his back, Li Jing ordered: "Come on, loosen the rope for Marshal Deng!"
"Wait!" Deng Jiugong shouted and reprimanded the junior colonel who came up to loosen the tie for him, and looked at Li Jing above, "Li Jing, if you want the commander to surrender, please don't open your mouth." Ben Shuai is deeply favored by the emperor, and he would rather die than be disloyal and unrighteous for this!"
Li Jing chuckled, shook his head and said: "The marshal's temperament is really admired by Benjue, but the marshal's insight makes Benjue dare not compliment. When the marshal puts the word loyalty and righteousness on his lips, he can know what loyalty and righteousness are? Loyalty to the king is nothing but petty loyalty and small righteousness, and loyalty to the whole world is the great loyalty and righteousness. The marshal ignores the suffering of the common people in the world, and only cares about working for the faint king, this is sacrificing great loyalty and righteousness and taking small loyalty and small righteousness, how foolish!"
Deng Jiugong was speechless by Li Jing's words, but he was unwilling to surrender, so he had to close his eyes and stand tall, making it clear that he wanted to die and did not want to talk to Li Jing again.
Li Jing smiled dumbly, turned around and said behind the screen: "Miss Deng, it seems that I still want you to persuade Lingzun to change his mind." ”
With his words, a person turned out from behind the screen, it was Deng Chanyu, who had been captured earlier. (To be continued......)
