The heavens start from saving Daming

The highlight of the battle between the Xuanwu Army and the Taining Army was the armored cavalry group rushing straight into the spear array.

But the peak fighting spirit was the close combat between the two Jiedu envoys, and the people and horses passed by each other in a flash.

A big head soared into the sky, and the outcome was already decided at this moment.

The tide of armored cavalry broke through the long spear array and poured into the Taining army's central array, smashing and trampling everything that stood in front of them along the way.

As the iron hoofs flew, the sound of fighting resounded through the sky.

In such a situation of melee combat, the effect of Li Yunze beheading Zhu Jin is not so conspicuous.

The battlefield was too chaotic and noisy, and the scale was so huge that the soldiers in the distance didn't even know what was going on here.

But it doesn't matter, Li Yunze will let them know.

Under the infinite admiration gazes of many armored cavalry gathered, Li Yunze called out to everyone, "Scatter around and ask everyone to shout together, Zhu Jin is dead, Taining is defeated."

"only!"

Witnessing Li Yunze's bravery and heroism in beheading the head of an enemy general among thousands of troops, he really admired Li Yunze with his armored cavalry.

They scattered out with high morale, and when they found their comrades, they shouted together, 'Zhu Jin is dead, Taining is defeated~~~'

Like a stone thrown into a calm pond, the ripples are getting bigger and farther away.

The Taining Army, which had already been attacked by the armored cavalry, looked in the direction of the Chinese army when they heard the call, but they only saw armored cavalry everywhere, but no Chinese army, let alone their Jiedu. Make the general flag.

There is no doubt that the morale of the army quickly fell, and then gradually turned into a rout.

And once the defeat on the battlefield begins, it cannot be stopped.

The armored cavalry, which had the upper hand in mobility, began to attack and drive around in units of battalions, tearing the Taining army into countless pieces.

This battle has reached this level, the outcome has been divided.

The Taining Army, which lacked mobility, was defeated and surrounded by groups.

A broken army that has lost its organization and cannot form an formation cannot withstand the impact of an armored cavalry.

When the Xuanwu army began to surrender, most of the defeated soldiers could only accept it helplessly.

If they don't accept it, they will have to lie flat to moisten the earth with an armored rider charging over.

There were tens of thousands of Taining army including auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands. Except for those who died in the battle on the spot, the rest basically became prisoners.

After defeating the Tianping Army and the Taining Army in succession, the morale of Li Yunze's subordinates was inflated to the extreme.

Many generals came to Li Yunze to ask for a fight, hoping to make persistent efforts and continue to use the tactics of long-distance raids to attack Shi Pu's headquarters of the Wuning Army, which was farther away from Pengcheng.

It's just that these invitations to fight were all rejected by Li Yunze.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight Shi Pu, but the current conditions don't allow it.

First of all, the distance is too far. Starting from here to find Shi Pu is at least hundreds of miles away. In order to achieve the purpose of the surprise attack, a forced march is required.For the armored cavalry, who already had a continuous forced march and high-intensity combat, it was already difficult to persist.

The second is the personnel consumption caused by forced marches and high-intensity operations.

When the army marches for a hundred miles, the one who fights for the profit will kick up the general, and if the army marches for fifty miles, the one who fights for the profit is halfway there.

The ancestors have long said clearly that those who march a hundred miles to compete with the enemy for profit may lose their generals, and those who march fifty miles to compete with the enemy for profit can only get half of the soldiers.

Although the armored cavalry trained by Li Yunze had extremely high-end training equipment, after the hundreds of miles of raids, the number of those who were left behind and lost on the battlefield had already reached thousands.

In the era of cold weapons, the tolerance for soldiers' battle damage has already exceeded the limit. Even if it is not for successive victories, it is even possible that his side will be defeated first.

The final reason is that too many captives have been captured, and a large number of people are needed to guard them.

The infantry of the Xuanwu Army are still rushing here desperately, but according to the distance, they will not be able to come within ten days and a half months.

There were tens of thousands of captives from the Tianping Army and the Taining Army, and Li Yunze had to guard them with heavy troops.

You must know that most of these captives are professional warriors, not refugees who can't afford food.

After comprehensive consideration, Li Yunze chose to eat the fruits of victory first, instead of breaking sticks like a bear, and all the broken ones fell to the ground.

"Jiedu."

A general said to Li Yunze, "There are too many prisoners, how about reducing them?"

Hearing this, Li Yunze looked at it as if he had seen a ghost.After a moment, he waved his hand to let him back down.

The so-called reduction is completely literal.

If there are too many prisoners, the number of prisoners will be reduced. As for the way to reduce the number of prisoners, of course, it is to use a horizontal knife to reduce them.

"This era." Li Yunze shook his head again and again, "It's such a chaotic world where good people go crazy, the Virgins fall, and saints turn black."

Tens of thousands of people will be given to Karma with just one sentence. This is the normal state of this troubled world.

"I don't know how to respect life at all." Li Yunze sighed repeatedly, "No matter what era it is, talents are the most important cornerstone. No one has nothing, and all land and materials are meaningless existence. Population is so precious, from birth to growth big at least ten

Years of hard work will be repaid with one blow.”

Whenever there are troubled times, there will always be heroes who stand up to end the troubled times. This is not only the ability of the heroes, but also the inevitable result of people's thoughts.

After all, no one wants to live in an era where people will be harassed at any time, and it is still taken for granted.

There is only one head, and if it is gone, it is really gone, and it will not grow back.

The subordinates' suggestion to reduce the number of men also made Li Yunze determined to suspend the fighting, and settle the matter in front of him first.

Li Yunze didn't lose his men, but he wouldn't raise tens of thousands of captives for nothing.

He initiated recruitment among the captives, and those who are willing to join the Xuanwu Army and want to pledge their allegiance to him can participate in the entry test.

Those who passed the entry test were regular soldiers, with all money, grain and salary.

Those who failed the entry test but performed well in the auxiliary army had their money, food and salaries halved, waiting for the opportunity to become a full-time member.

As for the rest, it can only be a civilian husband.

If you don't want to do it, you can't do it. Li Yunze doesn't support idlers here, and if you don't do things, you have nothing to eat.

The peasants were quickly mobilized and began to repair the wounds caused by the battlefield, at least to replant the destroyed fields as soon as possible.

As for whether it has any effect, let's not talk about it, but at least you have to show your attitude and actions first.

After that, it is to expand and maintain roads, that is, to build official roads.

The ancient official roads, except Qin Zhidao, which cost countless manpower and material resources, other official roads in the past dynasties are better close to the city, and paved with gravel and yellow sand.

And roads paved with bluestone slabs like Suzaku Avenue are image projects that cost national resources, and there is only one in the whole world.

The real official way is the wild road that is said to be three feet of soil on sunny days and covered in mud on rainy days.

And because of the long-term rut rolling and the invasion and corrosion of rainwater, not to mention the potholes on the official roads, there are big pits everywhere that can directly bury people.

With such traffic conditions, it is no wonder that the marching speed cannot be raised.

Just like in Bianzhou and Songzhou before, Li Yunze began to urge the folks to build roads.

Building roads in ancient times was a very labor-intensive task. Even Qin Zhidao used hundreds of thousands of labor, and it took countless talents to build it bit by bit by cooking clods.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Yunze to mobilize tens of thousands of people to steam the soil and build roads. The person who did this last time was called Yang Guang, and then he was dismissed.

He brought generators and rock crushers from the modern world, and used the generators to drive the rock crushers to crush large blocks of mined stone into small stones.

Then it is mixed with graded cement bought from the modern world to make cement mortar, and pave the concrete road with a slightly higher middle and lower sides.

Due to the lack of large-scale machinery, what could have been done in a few days by a construction team of several hundred people could not be done by Li Yunze's tens of thousands of people in half a month.

Of course, this is a comparison with the modern world, so of course there is no comparison.

In the late Tang Dynasty, it was already astonishingly fast.

What's more, it's not a traditional dirt road. It's an authentic cement road that digs the foundation first, lays gravel and gravel to lay the foundation, and then pours concrete.

Although the people in Datang don't know what cement concrete roads are, they have eyes and legs.You can see the road after drying, and you can feel comfortable walking on it.

There are masonry drainage ditches built on both sides of the concrete road, and all trees must be planted at least five meters away.

The road built by Li Yunze centered on Cao County, leading to Bianzhou in the west, Songzhou in the south, Yanzhou in the east, and Yunzhou in the north.

The fastest way to repair is naturally the road to Yanzhou.

After all, the Jiedushi of the Taining Army was beheaded by Li Yunze among the thousands of troops, and his reputation had already spread through the word of mouth of the rout soldiers. His reputation could be said to move the world.

The Taining Army, which lost the Jiedushi and most of its troops, is a ripe fruit that needs to be picked by Li Yunze.

Taking Yanzhou has another advantage, which is to cut off the connection between Zhu Xuan and Shi Pu.

The news of Li Yunze's victory over the Tianping Army and the Taining Army had already reached the ears of Shi Pu, the Jiedu envoy of the Wuning Army.

Without the slightest hesitation, he led the Wu Ning army to turn around, and returned to Pengcheng on guard all the way to stay behind closed doors.

To be honest, Shi Pu was really intimidated by Li Yunze's formidable strength, which easily defeated the strong soldiers of the two towns.

two days!Two towns were tied!
In this era where months are the basic unit of measurement in wars, this tyrannical combat power is simply too astonishing.

When the infantry brigade from Bianzhou finally arrived, Li Yunze was about to watch over the work of the peasants, and hand over the work of integrating the prisoners of war from the two towns before the training to the infantry.

As for himself, he took the armored cavalry, who were finally freed from the many affairs, and headed straight for Yanzhou in a mighty way.

Here in Yanzhou, as early as the news of Zhu Jin's defeat and death came back, a civil strife had already broken out.

A group of Taining soldiers who stayed in the city took advantage of the traditional virtues of the warriors of this era and raised troops to besiege Zhu Jin's family.

Zhu Jin's son Zhu Yongzhen and others were hacked to death during the chaos, and his wife was arrested.

The purpose of the rebels' rebellion was very simple. Zhu Jin's people were all killed in battle, and the main force of the Taining army who sent troops was also wiped out.

How could they be able to stop Li Yunze's attack just by the remaining of them.

So they rebelled to surrender to Li Yunze.

If you can't beat it, you will vote, which is also a traditional skill of this era.

Zhu Yongzhen in history dedicated Yanzhou City to Zhu Wen when his father Zhu Jin was out looking for food.

When Li Yunze came to Yanzhou City with his troops, the city gates were wide open, and the defenders voluntarily left the city to surrender.

After entering the city, Li Yunze took over the city defense, especially those generals and academies of the Taining Army who took the lead in the rebellion, and sent them all away with a huge sum of money.

After dark, Li Yunze, who had finished his work, came to the Jiedu Mansion that originally belonged to Zhu Jin.

When he opened the door and was about to eat, he was surprised to see a beautiful woman in the room who was still charming.

After inquiring, it turned out that she was Zhu Jin's wife.

Looking at the beauty in front of him, Li Yunze rubbed his chin thoughtfully, "Could it be that Zhu Jin's nephew wants to learn Zhang embroidery?"
