Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 410

The smoothness of the war in South Vietnam can only be described as overwhelming, which shocked Yu Chigong who had experienced dozens of battles.

The reason for such a result is not that the Nanyue people are really unbearable like chickens and dogs. In fact, since Yu Chigong led the Tang army to the Annan Governor's Mansion, they began to encounter strong resistance from the Nanyue people.

These South Vietnamese are not the kind of simple mobs. They have standard weapons and equipment, and they are also advancing and retreating when fighting the Tang army. It can be seen that this is not the first time they have fought.

What kind of mob is this?This is clearly a qualified army!

Now Zi Yu Chigong felt something was wrong, and after he sent scouts to investigate, he found that the situation was far worse than he knew.

At the beginning, Yu Chigong heard that there were only about 2 people rebelling in South Vietnam, so he brought [-] Tang troops to suppress the rebellion, but now he found that there were far more than [-] people rebelling.

As early as the beginning of the year, the four counties of Aizhou, Huanzhou, Tangzhou and Luofu Prefecture south of Annan Duhufu had already been controlled by rebels, and the number of rebels had already exceeded [-]!

The governor guarding this place was worried that the court would blame him, so he didn't report it. Instead, he used Annan Dufu Mansion and Jiaozhou as the boundary to prevent the South Vietnamese rebels from advancing northward. Suppress the rebellion before it happens.

In fact, this is not the first time they have done this.

But this time the situation was more serious than usual. After more than three months, the rebellion was still not suppressed, and even the agarwood that was paid to the court every year was interrupted.

In this way, the South Vietnamese rebellion could not be concealed.

When Yu Chigong figured out these things, he was so angry that he directly dragged out the Nanyue governor, tied him to the gate of the governor's mansion, and beat him with dozens of whips.

But after the fight, he fell into hesitation again.

Since ancient times, wars have focused on three major elements: weather, location, and harmony. As long as these three elements are accounted for, the chances of winning the war will increase a lot.

Now the South Vietnamese can be said to have all three of these.

First of all, the weather. Most of the Tang troops who came to South Vietnam this time were from the north, and the climate in South Vietnam is hot, with high temperatures throughout the year. After coming here, many Tang troops felt unwell.

The second is the geographical advantage. The Tang army is good at fighting on the plains, but South Vietnam is full of dense forests, full of poisonous insects and beasts, which reduces the Tang army's combat power by another [-]%.

Finally, there is Renhe. Most of the people living in South Vietnam today are local natives of South Vietnam, and only a small number of them moved from the Tang Dynasty.

Obviously, compared with the Tang army, these South Vietnamese rebels are more likely to gain the support of local residents, which is why the South Vietnamese Governor's Mansion could not quickly suppress the rebellion.

But Yu Chigong didn't shrink back because of this, on the contrary, his fighting spirit became even higher.

"Since we can't compete for the right time, the right place, and the harmony of people, then I will break it with my bravery!"

Immediately, Yu Chigong went into battle in person and led the Tang army to attack Aizhou.

Originally, Yu Chigong thought that there might be a lot of damage in this battle, and thousands of casualties were also in his consideration, but what he didn't expect was that things turned around during the siege!
It's all because of one person, his name is Li Yunhu!
Li Yunhu is the son of a tiger. Originally Gao Ming named him Li Hu, but later he realized that he had made a mistake because Li Yuan's grandfather was also named Li Hu.

Then by naming the tiger son Li Hu, wouldn't it be that he found an ancestor for himself?Isn't this embarrassing yourself?
Now Gao Ming finally understands why sometimes when Huzi opens his mouth, he will make things difficult for him. It turns out that the problem lies in the name he gave him.

Therefore, Gao Ming hurriedly added a word in the middle of Huzi's name, and it became Li Yunhu.

Yu Chigong also knew Hu Zi, when he set off with a large army, when he was about to reach Jiannan Road, he met Hu Zi who was chasing him, and after seeing Hu Zi brought Gao Ming's handwriting, he let Hu Zi He stayed and made him a forward lieutenant.

If it was other generals, such as Li Ji, who knew that Huzi was a clever person, they would at least give him a position as a partial general, which would be regarded as a bit of face for the crown prince Gao Ming.

But Yu Chigong didn't do this. In fact, if he didn't think of Yuchi Gong's strength, he wouldn't even let him be a school lieutenant.

Want a good location?Okay, let's perform well on the battlefield!
But what Yu Chigong didn't expect was that Huzi quickly showed a performance, and this performance was shocking!
In front of Aizhou City, the Nanyue people sent 2 people to confront the Tang army. Yu Chigong asked Huzi to lead 3000 people up to feign an attack for a while, and then pretended to retreat, leading the Nanyue people to his ambush location, and then surrounded and wiped them out.

But after Huzi left the battle, Yu Chigong waited and waited and saw him come back. Just when Yuchi Gong wondered if something happened to him, the messenger came back.

"Report! Report to the General, General Li has broken through Aicheng!"

"What?"

Hearing this news, Yu Chigong was so surprised that he almost fell off his horse.

"You said Huzi broke the city of Ai? With his 3000 people?"

"Yes, General Li has already entered the city, and now I am afraid that he has already arrived at the Governor's Mansion in Aicheng!"

"..."

Although Yu Chigong felt that this matter was ridiculous, he felt that the orderly did not dare to joke with him about it, so he quickly led the people towards Aicheng.

When he arrived at the gate of Aicheng, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

He saw a clear path of blood, yes, a real "path of blood"!
The road, which was less than two meters wide, was completely soaked in blood. There were dense corpses lying on both sides of the road. From their clothes, it could be seen that these were South Vietnamese rebels.

More importantly, more than half of these South Vietnamese rebels were incomplete.

Some have no heads, some have only half of their heads, and some still have their heads, but they are flat.

At this time, Yu Chigong and the others seemed to understand what the white paste on the ground was.

"vomit……"

As the first vomit sounded, the sound then spread.

"vomit……"

"Ugh... vomit..."

Under the influence of everyone, even Yu Chigong felt a little disgusted.

He has seen too many scenes, but this is the first time he has seen a scene of blood and brains paving the way like this.

Now Ziwei Chigong somewhat understood why Huzi was able to lead people into Aicheng.

"Seeing such a scene, even the soldiers who didn't participate in the battle couldn't help vomiting, so the South Vietnamese who bear the brunt must have been frightened by the tiger, right?"
