The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 885 Bloody Battle at Hengshan ([-])

Thunder formations all over the mountains and plains were broken countless.

Que Huarong and the others watched anxiously and said, "Commander, if this continues, our thunder formation..."

Liu Hongyi's eyes narrowed slightly, he turned his head to look at Que Huarong, and said with a serious expression: "Don't have such thoughts again, the emperor loves the people like a son, how can we run counter to the emperor. It is a sin not to save these people right now, even if All the thunder formations have been destroyed, so we can't kill these people. Back then, Zhang Jue's deputy commander led the troops to attack Dali, and even harassed the people, do you know why?"

Que Huarong couldn't answer.

Zhu Hecong said with a slight smile beside him: "When my brother and I were serving the emperor in the imperial study, we heard the emperor say that sooner or later this great world will be ruled by the Great Song Dynasty, and the people of this great country will eventually become the people of the Great Song Dynasty. Now take care of People, you can save a lot of trouble in the future."

Liu Hongyi nodded, still looking at Que Huarong, and said, "You don't want to see that when I conquer the world in the future, it will be like when the Yuan Dynasty seized my land in the Song Dynasty, and there will be rebels everywhere, right?"

Que Huarong was stunned.

He had never thought so deeply before, nor had he thought that the emperor had such ambition in his heart.

Right now, the Great Song Dynasty is still passively meeting the enemy, and the emperor has already included Dali and other places in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty.

There was a look of admiration in his eyes, and he said with emotion: "The emperor has a long-term view, but the general is short-sighted."

Liu Hongyi stopped talking about it, turned his head and looked down the hillside, and said: "These Dali soldiers never take the people seriously, and they will suffer in the future."

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world.This has been the case since ancient times.

While they were discussing on the hillside, Wang Ziqian and other Dali generals were also discussing on the hillside.

A general smiled lightly and said to Wang Ziqian: "General Wang, these Song troops are really ridiculous. To defend the barracks and let these Song people break the thunder formation, what is the difference between self-destruction and self-destruction?"

A little contempt flashed in the depths of Wang Zigan's eyes, and he said, "Do you know why the Song army is defending?"

However, his contempt was not revealed in his words.

This is only because the status of the general is not something that the prince can ignore if he wants to.

He is the chief general of the Yongchang Mansion army.

There are 37 tribes in the eight prefectures, four counties and four towns in Dali, many of which are self-governing. Although Qin Han planned to set up an imperial army later, there are still many private soldiers in each tribe.

The last time Zhang Jue led an army to Dali, he disabled the defenders of Weichu Mansion, Xiushan County, and Shanchan Mansion, and even the Dali Imperial Army was severely injured.Now the Dali Kingdom has dispatched so many troops to attack the Song Dynasty. Undoubtedly, many soldiers in the army were drawn from various tribes.

Wang Ziqian claims to have more than 2 troops, but among them, there are only [-] imperial troops among the elite of Dali.The rest were drawn from all over the place.

All the ministries in Yongchang Mansion are loyal to the royal family, and they are regarded as direct subordinates.This time, [-] defenders were also dispatched to accompany the army.

The chief general, Lang Yuanyou, is the general manager of the army and horses of Yongchang Mansion, and a senior official of the third rank. Of course, he is also considered a person.

No matter how conceited the prince is, he will not dare to offend him easily.After all, if he offended Lang Yuanyou, even if Lang Yuanyou didn't listen to his orders, he would have nothing to say.

But Lang Yuanyou didn't catch the contempt in Wang Ziqian's eyes, he only murmured slightly after hearing the words: "I'm afraid they are waiting for their reinforcements to arrive. It's just that their reinforcements are still a long way from here, can they hold it? "

Wang Ziqian showed a deep and unpredictable smile, "Then if Mr. Lang is in charge of you, what will you do?"

Lang Yuanyou said: "Even if you have to wait for reinforcements, you should withdraw from the barracks, and dealing with me is the most appropriate way."

Wang Ziqian shook his head and smiled lightly.

Lang Yuanyou asked suspiciously: "Why is General Wang laughing? Could it be that what I said was wrong? If the Song Army withdraws from the barracks, it will be possible for the Song Army to have room to deal with our army, isn't it?"

"Ah!"

Wang Ziqian smiled softly and said, "I can't say it's wrong, I can only say that Director Lang made a slight omission. May I ask how many cavalry our army has, but how many cavalry are there in the Song army? And if the army withdraws, it will surely decline, and the Song army will retreat. At that time, our army attacked and killed them, can they have a chance to deal with it?"

Lang Yuanyou didn't speak.

Wang Zigan glanced across the faces of the generals, and then said: "The Song army guarded the barracks, seemingly to die, but in fact they want to die to survive! Under such circumstances, their soldiers are afraid of blood and fighting spirit. They will all be fully mobilized, and in addition to the fact that they have built more defensive facilities outside the camp during this period, to be honest, it is still unclear whether our army can destroy them before their reinforcements arrive."

"This……"

Lang Yuanyou frowned and said, "But these Song generals are not worried that their soldiers will mutiny?"

In the past, such examples were not uncommon.It is not uncommon for soldiers to defect when there is no hope.

"Since they dare to do this, they should have something to rely on."

The prince sighed suddenly, "Actually, I am also curious about what kind of power it is that can make Song Jun have such courage!"

Everyone muttered to themselves, no longer speaking.

On the hillside, the people who were driven up the hillside walked higher and higher, and gradually some people walked out of the range of the thunder formation.

But they're still going up.

In less than a quarter of an hour, almost all the thunder formations buried under the Song Army barracks were destroyed.

But facing those common people who went up the mountain, Liu Hongyi ordered them to be brought into the barracks, and did not embarrass them in the slightest.

This made those common people feel surprised and grateful.

Although they were forced to do it, it is a fact that they broke the Song army's thunder formation.From this point of view, they can even be said to be enemies of the Song Army.

Song Jun's move can be said to be revenge with virtue.

Many people wept bitterly and cursed at the Dali Army at the same time.

"General Wang, are we still not attacking?"

After another 10 minutes, a general saw that Wang Ziqian still had no intention of ordering an attack, and asked aloud.

This general is Chen Guangbin, the deputy commander of the army and horses of Weichu Mansion.

Only when Zhang Jue attacked, even Xing Yuande, the head of the Weichu Mansion, committed suicide.Most of his [-] troops were drawn from various tribes, and they were extremely scattered.

On this trip, Wang Zigan led the army to attack the Song camp again, and he only brought the forbidden army directly under his command, as well as the two troops of Weichu Mansion and Yongchang Mansion, totaling about [-].

In addition, Song Ruili led the Xiushan County miscellaneous army, the Jining Mansion's miscellaneous army and the rest of the Forbidden Army, all of which were arranged by Wang Ziqian to stay in Hengshan Village.

Seeing Chen Guangbin's voice, all the generals beside the chariot looked at Wang Zigan.

Now that the Song army's thunder formations have been broken, the people brought here have been useless.The next thing was that the soldiers pointed directly at the Song army's camp.

It was time to order the attack.

Tens of thousands of troops have now surrounded the Song Army's barracks, only the sound of drums is needed.

But Wang Ziqian, sitting in the chariot with a big umbrella, shook his head and said with a light smile: "Don't worry, it's not the time yet, it won't be too late to attack when General Chi arrives with his army."

All the generals beside him showed doubts.

Lang Yuanyou said: "General Wang, reinforcements from the Song army are also on their way. We need to destroy this Song army sooner! Besides, when General Chi comes, won't we give them great military achievements?"

Military merit is particular, and there is a big difference between the merits of the main attacking army and the auxiliary attacking army.

Wang Ziqian was still unmoved, and only said: "The Song army is heavily defended, and our army will only suffer heavy losses if we attack at this time."

He looked at Lang Yuanyou with a smile, "If our army and the Song army fight to lose both, even if we destroy this Song army, Director Lang thinks the emperor will reward us?"

Lang Yuanyou was speechless.

They have lost [-] soldiers before, if they pay a huge loss here.That really wiped out this Song army, and at most it just offset the merits and demerits.

Instead of this, it would be better to give this credit to the reinforcements, so that he and others can retain their strength.

As the chief of soldiers and horses of Yongchang Mansion, he probably has no chance of promotion in this life. Compared with military merits, he is undoubtedly more inclined to keep his soldiers and horses in Yongchang Mansion.

Only with enough troops will he be able to have a corresponding voice in the court in the future.

Lang Yuanyou suddenly remembered that before he led the army to set off, the general manager had told him, "Don't compete for military merit, safety is the first."

At that time, he only thought that the manager was old and lost his ambition.It was only at this moment that he suddenly realized that the general manager's intention was to let himself keep the soldiers in his department as much as possible.
