Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 347
What does it feel like to watch the enemy slip away from you?
This feeling is very complicated, at least Zhang Zhao didn't know what to say when he saw thousands of Fengxiang soldiers gradually retreating to the high mountain in the east under the cover of night.

The strength of the Guiyi Army is still too weak, if we must keep all the Fengxiang Army, I am afraid that the price to be paid will be very high!
Zhang Zhao looked at the cheering soldiers around him, whether it was a mighty general like Man Xiong, or a Dangxiang ranger who was used as a striker.

Everyone's face showed an expression of being extremely grateful that they were still alive.

The four-hour tug-of-war is already their limit.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhao understood that eating the most elite 4000 people of the Fengxiang Army was already the best result he could achieve, and if it was too late, if he was too greedy, he would probably suffer backlash.

Zhang Zhao received a letter from Pei Yuan at the end of April, asking him to prepare to enter the Guanzhong to quell the chaos. In early May, he led an army of more than [-] troops, thousands of civilians and six rangers, and it has been more than three months since now.

In the past three months, the soldiers of the Guiyi Army have walked more than [-] miles with him, and they have to walk the same distance to go back. It is [-] miles to go back and forth. moon.

When the soldiers set off, some mothers and aunts were pregnant with cubs, maybe they were all born by now, and those who hadn't had babies would have to give birth when they walked back.

Some of Gaotang's parents were sick when they left, and they didn't know how sick they were?Is it even there?
Some people had already made a family relationship when they left, and they followed Zhang Zhao to Guanzhong without remembering the appearance of their mother-in-law and aunt.

Some took the money and went back to buy land for their families, and some wanted to hurry back and marry a beautiful wife.

When some left, Ye Niang's voice crying that she must go back alive was vivid in my memory.

Some have made an agreement with their childhood sweethearts that they will get married when they return home.

Some relatives and friends died in battle, for fear that they would also die in battle, and in the end they would not be able to send the ashes and rewards home.

They are all real people, not NPCs who are tireless and do not need comfort.

Until now, the Guiyi Army started from Liangzhou all the way, and surrendered the Dangxiang in Huizhou, Qingzhou, and Yuanzhou successively.

Then he fought bloody battles with tens of thousands of rebels, beat up Li Congzhao at the foot of Mawei Slope, and now defeated Li Congzhen again.

Non-stop, death without hesitation, but also people's hearts return!

They want to take the rewards they have obtained, and go home happily to share with their wives, Ye Niang. The so-called unbeatable military spirit is probably like this!
"Surround the mighty army, don't let them run away! I'm going to ask the imperial court for a reward, a big reward, I'm sure my sons and daughters will return with a rewarding reward!"

Zhang Zhao rode his horse and galloped back and forth on the battlefield, and his personal guards followed behind him, shouting all over the battlefield.

"Wan Sheng! Sikong Wan Sheng! Guiyi Army Wan Sheng!"

Sure enough, after Zhang Zhao made the decision to accept as soon as it was good, the cheers on the battlefield were higher than ever. They were really happy that they no longer had to work hard.

. . . .

Thousands of cavalry roared towards them before they had time to escape, and were chased by the Xiongwu army who were left by the Wei River.

The reason why Zhang Zhao pursued Qinzhou Xiongwu Army instead of mainly pursuing Fengxiang Army was after careful consideration.

Because Qinzhou (Tianshui) was under the jurisdiction of Longyou Jiedushi during the Tang Dynasty.

Qinzhou and Lanzhou controlled by Zhang Zhao were separated by Weizhou (Longxi) in the Tang Dynasty, so Zhang Zhao and the Guiyi Army naturally regarded it as their own territory.

Besides, Kang Fu, the envoy of the Qinzhou Xiongwu Army Jiedu, asked to go back to Kaifeng several times to retire, and none of the Xiongwu Army could control the situation. This is simply a tailor-made site for Zhang Zhao!
Even if he defeated the Fengxiang Army, he still couldn't swallow the Fengxiang Jiedushi's territory, but the Qinzhou Xiongwu Army's territory could.

Moreover, Zhang Zhao also had a little bit of thought in mind, and he didn't want to let Li Congzhen go.

However, after a few days of fierce fighting, the Guiyi Army is unbearable to fight anymore, but it may be okay to be the supervisor of the battle team behind, escorting the 500 people of the Xiongwu Army to attack the thousands of frightened birds that Li Congzhen took away.

Seeing that they were surrounded, the Xiongwu army panicked, fighting with cold weapons, fighting with one heart.

Although their powerful army is not soft-footed shrimp, they didn't dare to go up and fight just now. Now that they are discouraged, they won't dare to fight.

Song Zhong, the commander of the Xiongwu Army Jiedu Yameni Mabudu, is also very helpless!
At first, he thought he was following King Li Qi to squeeze the persimmons, but he never expected that it would be a fierce battle that made his calves cramp.

He, Song Zhong, was not Li Congyu's subordinate, so it was understandable that he was unwilling to fight such a fierce battle.

It's just that he was wrong, he didn't expect Fengxiang's army to retreat so resolutely and so quickly, causing him to be intercepted by Guiyi's army.

. . . .

In the city of Chang'an, An Shenqi was struck by five thunders, and he still had to endure Zhang Zhao and Li Congxuan.

But never expected that it took only six days for Zhang Zhao to defeat Li Congzhao first, and then Li Congxi. In six days, he defeated Fengxiang Army's 20,000 people to nowhere.

Don't let Zhang Zhao swallow the Fengxiang Army!

This was the only thought in An Shenqi's mind, to drive off the tiger and gobble up the wolf, and now as long as he can get Zhang Zhao back to Hexi, any price will be worth it.

At this time, Li Congzhao from Xingping County sent a fast horse to contact An Shenqi.

The Fengxiang Army in Xingping County also showed their last bravery and organized thousands of people to leave the city and rush to Maweipo.

Although the 800 people led by Hucile and Guo Guangcheng had put out [-] points of combat power, the gap in the number of the two sides was too large, and Li Congzhao kept pushing westward.

. . . .

By the side of the Wei River, Song Zhong, who was surrounded, was thinking about whether to send someone to ask Zhang Sikong, the Hexi Army, to surrender?Or break out of the siege in Chaoyu County?Or. He simply led his subordinates to run away with him?

But soon, he didn't have to think about it, because someone else had already made the decision for him.

As soon as the sun set, the Xiongwu army, which was under great pressure, broke out in chaos. At first, dozens of soldiers shouted that they were deceived by Song Zhong and asked Song Zhong to come out and explain.

Fortunately, Song Zhong's tooth soldiers were still loyal, but they went out to suppress and killed two soldiers who shouted.

But I didn't expect it to cause even greater anger. Hundreds of soldiers rushed out, shouting, "Please take the commander to another place to eat", and rushed towards Song Zhong's camp.

What is another place to eat?Song Zhong is very clear about the meaning of it, this is a fucking slang term, it means to let his head move and find another place.

As a five-generation military leader who has rich experience in rebelling against others, Song Zhong also has the same rich experience in how to deal with the rebellion from the people below, that is, run!

As long as you run fast enough and are not caught during the chaos, then you will have the capital to advance and retreat freely.

Because the rebel tooth soldiers do not have the ability to rule a place, in the end they still have to elect a famous person to stabilize the place, and that is the way for these tooth generals to settle down.

It's just that Song Zhong, who got on his horse and ran very fast today, was immediately blocked back.

He saw hundreds of familiar figures, this is the kind of cotton armor unique to the Hexi Army.

Song Zhong instantly understood that the one who wanted to kill him was not the rebellious soldiers of the Xiongwu army, but Zhang Zhao.

That night, the Xiongwu army was in chaos, killing Jieduya Nei Mabudu commanded more than [-] generals under Song Zhong, and the rest of the generals led their troops to surrender to Zhang Zhao.

The next day, Zhang Zhao regretted the battle with the personal guards of the mountain capital, ordered the Xiongwu army to dispatch, and began to besiege Li Congzhen on the mountain from three sides.

It's just a pity that the attack only took half a day, and Li Congzhen and others had been besieged in a temple on the mountain. When it only took one day at most to succeed, Guo Guangcheng arrived with a person himself.

The one who came with him was a general surnamed An, who was a member of An Shenqi's clan, and came here to intercede with Zhang Zhao.

As the era when warriors were in power, they liked to put everything on the bright side, unlike the literati in the later Song and Ming dynasties, who made things cloudy and foggy.

An Shenqi's condition was simple, but it was enough to make Zhang Zhao's heart flutter.

General Xiao galloped down from his horse and knelt down in front of Zhang Zhao, "The inspector Taifu, the military governor of Jinchang, and the last general sent by Xingjing Zhao Yin'an to Zhang Sikong.

Although King Li Qi made a big mistake, he is still the king enshrined by the emperor, and he must not harm his life!

The Hexi army has made great achievements in calming the chaos. The Taifu is willing to play Zhang Sikong as the Duke of the State, and also confers the Longyou Jiedu envoy. In the Hexi Longyou land, the positions below the governor are all appointed by Sikong. "

Zhang Zhao nodded secretly, a Duke of the State, plus Longyou Jiedushi, now his large Guiyi Army Jiedushi finally took shape.

The appointment of positions below the governor is equivalent to acknowledging in disguise that Zhang Zhao has the same power as Li Congzhen.

However, this is not enough, just superficial benefits are not enough, there must be actual benefits!

General Xiao is also very good, it seems that when An Shenqi sent him, he had already given an explanation.

"As for the reward for the army's suppression of the chaos and the grievances between Zhang and Li's family, the Tai Tuo is willing to be a middleman, and everyone will discuss one or two in the Mawei post!"

Mawei Post City was in Zhang Zhao's hands, but An Shenqi would definitely not come alone, he must have brought the Jinchang Army and Zhen Guo Army with him, but choosing Mawei Post was enough to give Zhang Zhao face.

After thinking about it, Zhang Zhao finally nodded his head.

With his thousands of troops mixed with one-third of party items, the current treatment is already the best.

Because it is impossible for him to withstand the pincer attack of the Jinchang Army and the Zhen Guo Army, even the current Fengxiang Army is very dangerous to win, and it is still a bit overwhelming.

How could An Shenqi dare to do this if he had an army of [-]?All of this, after all, still depends on strength to speak.
