The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 341 Li Heng's Wrath

However, Li Heng led the army and ran nearly a thousand meters behind the corner. Seeing that the Song army behind him did not catch up, he really reined in his horse.

His city has always been very deep, and his mind is unfathomable. Although he led the army to retreat, he was still testing the truth of the Song army all the time.

After reining in his horse, he immediately turned his head and said to the lieutenant next to him, "You go and see if the Song army has retreated!"

If the Song army retreated at this time, it would be enough to show that they were just bluffing, at least Li Heng thought so.

The real art of war is false, and the false is real. It is often necessary to go through continuous testing and observation to truly know the enemy's falsehood.When the two armies are at war, it often takes countless trials before the real confrontation begins, either withdrew or fought.

"Order."

The lieutenant waved to the guards behind him, and hurried back with more than ten riders.

When they ran to the corner again and looked back, they saw the torches of the Song Army standing still for hundreds of meters around the corner.

This frightened him a little, and he didn't dare to stay longer. After hastily done, he turned his horse and ran to the front of the army.

When he got to Li Heng's side, Li Heng asked, "Has the Song army already retreated?"

The lieutenant replied: "No, they stopped about 500 meters behind the curve."

Li Heng frowned and pondered.

He was thinking, Song Jun didn't chase, but didn't retreat, what was he thinking?
Su Liuyi's various actions really made him a little uncertain about his details.

He felt that Su Liuyi was bluffing, but he also felt that Su Liuyi was deliberately inducing him to attack.

In fact, as long as we find out whether Zhao Dongting led the army back to Haikang, we can completely figure out whether Su Liuyi is false or not, but unfortunately, this is what makes Li Heng the most headache now.They have sneaked into the mainland without eyeliner, and they are not clear about the situation in the mainland.Although estimated from the time, Zhao Dongting probably hasn't come back yet, but the appearance of Feitian Army and Feilong Army made him feel that Zhao Dongting might have rushed back at full speed.

In the end, Li Heng was silent for a long time, but still waved: "Let's go!"

The Yuan army continued to move forward, heading towards the coast.The fear of Zhao Dongting made him dare not take any more risks.

This can also be regarded as being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of well ropes for ten years.I don't know if Zhao Dongting would feel nervous if he knew that Li Heng was so afraid of him.

Time passed slowly.

When Zhao Da and Zhao Hu led the Flying Dragon Army to find Su Liuyi, Li Heng led the Yuan Army to board the ship on the coast.

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu didn't see the Yuan army, but seeing the Song army's momentum, they couldn't help asking: "Deputy Su Jun ordered, where are the Yuan thieves?"

Su Liuyi smiled lightly and said, "It should have already retreated."

He didn't dare to send scouts to spy out, for fear that Li Heng would notice something was wrong, so he couldn't tell if Li Heng had led his army to leave completely.

But for such a long time, the Yuan army did not turn back, and it should have made up its mind to withdraw.

Zhao Da was stunned, "The Yuan army has withdrawn? Don't they have tens of thousands of troops? Why did they withdraw like this?"

Su Liuyi said: "They may think that the emperor has come back!"

As he spoke, he looked towards the dragon chariot behind him again.He is quite proud of his strategy this time.

It's just that he didn't know that Li Heng didn't see the dragon chariot at all, and the reason why he retreated was because he was frightened by the frightened birds in the woods.

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu naturally couldn't figure out the joints, scratched their heads, their faces full of puzzlement, but they didn't ask any more questions.

The two of them led the Flying Dragon Army and took Su Liuyi beside them, just like that.

After waiting for more than an hour, Su Liuyi looked back at the drowsy militiamen behind him, and finally shouted: "Go back to the city!"

Thousands of soldiers quickly headed towards Haikang County.

Hundreds of soldiers also ran out from the woods on both sides, and then followed behind the army.

At this time, Li Heng led the army to the sea.However, his brows were still frowning, and he always felt that things were not that simple.

But obviously, it was late at night and the soldiers were tired, so it was impossible for him to lead the army back to the coast again.

The soldiers are all human beings, and as a general, he also has to consider the mood of the soldiers.If it is too harsh, mutiny may arise in the army.

When it was very dark, Li Heng led his army back to Donghai Island.

The generals who stayed on the island were already waiting at the ferry.

After Li Heng disembarked, he asked directly, "Has General Zhang returned?"

General Dao: "General, General Zhang led the army and has not returned yet."

He raised his head slightly, and asked doubtfully, "General, why did you lead the army back so soon?"

He saw that all the soldiers who disembarked behind him were in full armor, and they looked like they had never fought in battle, so he was naturally full of doubts.

Li Hengdao: "The Song army set up a suspicious formation on the road that our army must pass through. I would have suspected that Emperor Song had returned, so I led the army back."

"Emperor Song is back so soon?"

The general who stayed on the island exclaimed, feeling a little impossible in his heart, but seeing Li Heng's ugly face, he didn't dare to say more.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he said again: "Then...General, do we want to send someone to let General Zhang lead the army back?"

"Ah."

Li Heng just nodded, and then strode into the barracks.

Regardless of whether Song Jun is false or real, he is not in a good mood after returning without success this time.

Moreover, as time passed, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Song Jun was deliberately bluffing.

This caused Li Heng to be unable to fall asleep after returning to the camp.

It's just a fan of the authorities, no matter how he thinks, he still can't figure out what he missed.

In this way, two hours later, Zhang Hongfan led the army and rushed back to Donghai Island after getting the news.

He had obviously heard about Li Heng's retreat from the guard, and when he walked into Li Heng's camp, seeing that Li Heng was awake, he directly asked, "My virtuous brother, why did you just retreat?"

Naturally, it was impossible for Li Heng to reply to Zhang Hongfan with a few words like he did to the guard, and then he told the experience in detail at that time.

"Ugh!"

After Zhang Hongfan listened, he patted his thigh heavily, "I'm afraid my brother has fallen into the trick of Song Jun!"

Li Heng frowned and said, "What do you mean by brother's words?"

Zhang Hongfan said angrily: "My dear brother, think about it. Since Emperor Song took charge of the army, our army has fought countless small battles with the Song army. When did the Song army use such false tricks? Even if it is a trick, It's just to choose our generals to kill. If Emperor Song really led his army back, with the firearms of the Song Dynasty, he can completely repel you head-on. Why do you have to be suspicious? You have said it yourself, the art of war is not amazing. It’s strange only if it’s not right. Why can’t I figure it out now?”

Li Heng was stunned.

He finally understood what he had missed.

Yes, if Emperor Song returns, he can completely block him head-on, so why bother to use tricks?
With the firepower of the Song Dynasty, even if he fought head-on, he would suffer countless losses, right?

Li Heng's chubby face twitched slightly, and then it became more and more violent. He gritted his teeth and growled: "I'm so angry!"

Zhang Hongfan just sighed deeply.

Although Li Heng was only a lieutenant general, the two of them had a close friendship, and Li Heng's influence in the court was not small, so it was hard for him to blame him.

After more than ten seconds, Li Heng's eyes were a little red, and he said, "Don't worry, brother. After the soldiers have a rest, I will lead the army tomorrow morning and take down that Haikang County! It is a great shame and shame with blood."

I think he is also a well-known wise general in the Yuan Dynasty, when was he ever played like this?
Zhang Hongfan looked at him and said, "That's fine. Emperor Song must never be able to rush back to Haikang tonight."

After finishing speaking, the two didn't say any more, Zhang Hongfan left the tent and went back to his handsome tent.

Li Heng figured out what he had missed, all doubts in his heart were gone, although he was annoyed, he was able to sleep now, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Haikang County.

After Zhang Hongfan retreated, Zhang Jue hurried back to Haikang with hundreds of personal guards to meet Su Liuyi.

When he heard that Su Liuyi had frightened Li Heng back with the trick of scaring the bird and the dragon, he naturally praised Su Liuyi.

But after that, the two of them also pondered.

It is conceivable that when Li Heng reacts, Haikang County is bound to face his massive attack.With such a strategy, it is impossible to hide from someone like Li Heng for too long.According to the news brought to Haikang by scouts from Zhao Dongting's army, Zhao Dongting was still about four days away from Haikang at this time.

Haikang County is empty of troops, and it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to block the Yuan army for four days.
