The big man is on the run

Chapter 45
"The Chinese army has mutinied, Your Majesty should leave the city quickly!"

In the chaos, Liu Yi looked at Yang Xiu who was anxiously tugging on his sleeve, and was so angry that he wanted to kick him.

But he held back for the next second.

Defeatist counselors are certainly irritating, but looking at it from another angle, Yang Xiu didn't run away by himself but dragged him to run with him. Is this also a kind of loyal minister?
"Your Majesty ascended the heights and shouted, and the Chinese army can be settled."

Fazheng's suggestion went to the other extreme, and Zhong Yao was more peaceful.

"The night is dark and it's so noisy that everyone's shouts are useless. Your Majesty can't leave the city, and people will be confused when he goes out of the city. Since the Chinese army is in chaos, why don't you choose a general to temporarily stabilize the camp, and then send a general to purge the Chinese army. .”

The Chinese army is the newly recruited refugees and veterans of the Northern Army these days.

At this time, Zhu Jun was camping outside the city, and the mutiny in Zheng County could only be handled by Liu Yi himself.

Although the camp of the Chinese army is in chaos right now, the hundreds of imperial guards guarding the emperor's side, Habayashi and Huben, are still in order. Amidst the shouts of captains and junior officers at all levels, the whole team followed the emperor and him. Nearby ministers.

"What Zhong Shilang said makes sense."

Liu Yi nodded slightly, this was the best solution he could think of in his panic.

But he was full of vigilance when he scanned the surrounding ministers and cabinet officials.

Liu Yi knew very well that there was a traitor hiding beside him.

And the chaos at night may also be inseparable from the collusion between the traitor and Guo Si.

In other words, even if there is still some time before dawn, Guo Si's army is likely to cross the Jing Bridge and cross the river, and by dawn they will be able to attack Zheng County, which is only [-] miles away!

Liu Yi's thoughts changed, and he figured it out again.

Because of his own water attack, Guo Bang now has no six hundred "nights not collected" with field combat capabilities.

In the dark, most soldiers of this era suffer from night blindness.

Guo Si prepared torches and braziers in advance, and it was entirely possible for the soldiers under his command to cross the Jing Bridge under brightly lit conditions. After all, he just pulled the ropes of the soldiers in front to cross the bridge in order.

But marching in the dark should not be possible.

That is to say, Guo Bang can cross the bridge at night, but it takes at least an hour to reach Zheng County, even if their marching speed is much faster than the South Road Army supporting the old and the young.

From dawn to the battle, plus the recovery time of Guo Bang's soldiers, Liu Yi had about an hour and a half to prepare.

The war is imminent, and there is a prerequisite for obtaining this preparation time.

That is, Liu Yi must suppress the chaos before dawn!
"Can you all see clearly?"

Everyone's answers did not meet Liu Yi's expectations. Most of the soldiers of Jin Chen, Habayashi Guard and Huben Guard did not suffer from night blindness.

The reason is simple, they are all "meat eaters".

Yes, it is the meat eater in "The Meat Eater Despises the Unscrupulous".

The main cause of night blindness in this era is not the innate differences between people, but the lack of vitamin A in the acquired diet.

The foods rich in vitamin A are mainly animal liver and animal meat, which are not affordable by ordinary families. The food of ordinary people is mainly carbohydrate-rich grains and even grain husks, as well as some vegetables and wild vegetables.

The so-called good families from the six prefectures were elected to Habayashi and Qimen, and they used their talents as officials, so there were many famous generals.

Most of them come from the emperor's private land in terms of law, that is, Longxi, Shangjun, Beidi, Anding, Tianshui, and Xihe six counties. They have practiced bow and horse since childhood, and they can afford meat. They are the source of soldiers for professional soldiers. .

And this year, except for the Liangjiazi of the six counties who have entered the emperor's pro-army Habayashi Guard and Huben Guard with the traditional customs of joining the army, the rest of the big soldiers are basically of civilian origin, and their night blindness is very serious.

In the era of underdeveloped productive forces, the two guards, Habayashi and Huben, who had good family conditions, were born with the ability to fight at night.

Liu Yi already had a calculation in his heart, so he simply asked.

"Have the people sent back? Why is the Chinese army in chaos? Is Xia Yu, who is in command of the Chinese army, dead or alive?"

"Your Majesty, I have sent three groups of people. They have entered the camp of the Chinese Army and have not come out. It is in chaos. I am afraid that the soldiers have mutinied. Your Majesty should avoid it."

"Where to avoid?"

The servant Zhongji was slightly taken aback, and the minister who belonged to the "No. [-] suspect insider" replied without hesitation: "I must go to General Dong."

Liu Yi loosened his hand on the hilt of the sword slightly, and then tightened it suddenly.

The reason why he let go was because he was close to Yang Dingsu and didn't suggest letting him go to the unreliable Yang Dingsu's camp.

He tightened his grip because Liu Yi suddenly thought of a possibility, a possibility he had manipulated.

Just like in that game, as a traitor, he played a kill at the beginning of the game against Wang Can, who was the protagonist, causing everyone to misjudge.

——Is it true that Dong Cheng also reversed?
As a matter of life and death, if one wrong step is taken, one will fall into a land of eternal doom, so Liu Yi's suspicions can't help but arise.

And the words Liu Yi heard in the next moment made him clenched even tighter on the hilt of his sword hidden under his sleeve in the night.

"If Your Majesty thinks that the generals are untrustworthy, why not take refuge in the Taoist temple in Shaohua Mountain?"

The speaker was Hu Miao.

Well, the one who sent Wang Chang to chase and kill Huangfu Li.

At this time, Wang Chang was standing behind Hu Miao holding his knife, and nodded slightly at Liu Yi.

"it is good!"

Liu Yi showed his face and laughed loudly: "This plan is in line with my wishes."

After all, he took the lead and walked out.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally stomped their feet to follow. Except for Fazheng and Zhong Yao who knew about it, only Yang Xiu's eyes flashed a trace of doubt among the rest of the people.

After walking for a while in the small city of Zheng County, Hu Miao became more and more anxious.

Hu Miao finally couldn't bear it anymore as he looked at the bluestone road with the soles of his feet turning white under the moonlight.

"Your Majesty, this is not the way to go north of the city."

"Of course not."

Liu Yi said calmly, "This is the way to the Chinese camp."

Hu Miao gasped, and suddenly realized something.

And at this moment, a ring-shouldered knife was placed on his neck.

Wang Chang, who had not fully healed the cut on his shoulder, changed his hand to hold the knife.

"Chen Wangchang, please eliminate the thief for His Majesty!"

Liu Yi nodded.

Wang Chang raised the knife and dropped it, Hu Miao's head fell to the ground.

Hu Miao's eyes looked at Wang Chang's boots, and he didn't realize until his death that it was the person who had taken dozens of taels of gold from him before and after that betrayed him.

"Those who cheated on Li Jue and Guo Si, that's the end."

Everyone looked at the emperor who spoke freely, and felt a little more at ease in spite of the fear in their hearts.

Without hesitation, Liu Yi led his troops to move on, and when he came to the camp of the Chinese army, he pointed to the cowhide drum and said.

"Hu Che'er, beat the drum."

"okay."

Under the protection of many Yulin and Huben guards, Liu Yi entered the school grounds in a grand manner, moved a box and sat at the forefront of the general platform.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Hu Che'er, like an iron tower, was holding drumsticks the size of his arms, his muscles were stretched, and he beat the cowhide drum heavily, and the sound echoed in the camp.

The bewildered soldiers began to settle down gradually, most of them were newly recruited young refugees, while the veterans of the Northern Army did not know where they were going.

"Order armor."

Liu Yi put the long sword on his knee and looked at the soldiers who gradually calmed down from the "cry scream" in the night wind.

Probably knowing that they couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north, south, front, back, left, and right, Liu Yi's instructions were very clear.

"Those without armor, stand on the side of Dagu; those with armor, stand on the side of Jiangtai."

The attendants and civil servants around looked at the calm and commanding emperor in the chaos, and couldn't help but admire him.

The Son of Heaven is really only 14 years old?
Such a sophisticated handling, really 24 years old may not be able to do it.

Some people were even shocked and admiring, and thought, this emperor will not really be able to revive the Han Dynasty, right?

The emperor returned to Luo and arrived at Xinfeng. If he wanted to return to the east, he would not be able to enter, and if he wanted to defend it, it would be difficult to achieve success.

The camp was frightened at night, the guards panicked and didn't know where to go and stop, the emperor closed his eyes and said "point the armor", the generals couldn't understand.

Huben Lang Wang Chang raised his sword and said: "In the past, Emperor Gao of Taizu set up from Pei County, and Emperor Guangwu of Shizu set up from Nanyang. How could there be hundreds of armors? Although we don't know the enemy's situation today, your majesty is as powerful as the second ancestor. Why worry about it!"

The guards gradually stabilized, and all the generals were amazed. From the beginning, we knew that the emperor's face did not change when the landslide fell in front of him.
