Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 189 Killing the Enemy Forward
Li Kexiu turned back in embarrassment, and Li Ye also found out the composition of the more than 1 Hedong Army.

The most powerful of the Hedong Army is the Ya'er Army. Li Keyong led the [-] Ya'er Army and chased Huang Chao's million-strong army all the way.

In fact, the Ya'er Army is not a bugle, but a joking name for the Hedong Cavalry. Li Ke used the most elite bodyguards to have the fourth army.

Tielindu, Congma Zhijun, Tucai Army, and Tuzhengjun, except Tielindu, each army probably has more than [-] cavalry.

It is recognized that the most elite is Tielindu, with only about 3000 people, all of whom are Sand Tuo iron cavalry trained since childhood. Unfortunately, according to the original history, this army was handed over to him by Li Keyong a few years later. His son Li Luoluo was defeated by Ge Congzhou, and he was completely defeated.

The assault army is the most fierce. Most of the army is Tuyuhun people, criminals, and grassland bandits recruited. They are not afraid of death. The charge must be at the forefront.

Most of the Cong Mazhi Army and the Tucai Army were led by Li Keyong himself, the main force among the main forces, and the decisive force on the battlefield.

Li Siyuan has more than 1000 cavalry in his hands, and he belongs to the Congma Zhijun.

According to the original history, not long after, Li Siyuan will lead this army on a rampage, and after many meritorious deeds, he will single out a military title for this army, which is called "Hengchong Capital", and Li Siyuan is also called Li Hengchong because of this.

As for Li Kexiu's Fifteen Capital Fei Teng Army, Jing Xiang is quite clear about it.

"Your Majesty, the Feiteng Army, Kuangba Army, Huaishun Army, and Guangjie Army are all stationed in various places in Hedong."

The garrisons in various places, that is, miscellaneous troops, are mostly composed of soldiers from various towns that Li Ke used to fight down, and most of them are infantry.

"However, the Feiteng Army and the Kuang Ba Army are different from other armies. They are infantry stationed in Taiyuan. They can be regarded as the guards of the Hedong infantry. Their combat effectiveness is still very fierce."

Li Ye nodded.

"Li Kexiu is the head coach, Li Siyuan is subordinate to Li Kexiu, and Fu Cun is Li Kexiu's deputy general of the infantry capital sent to Luoyang to assist Li Siyuan..."

Jing Xiang didn't know why His Majesty the Emperor was obsessed with Fu Cun, and said: "If Your Majesty wants to use Fu Cun, you only need to send someone to talk to Li Kexiu and call him into the account."

The infantry commanded lieutenant generals, and they were not high-ranking in the army, and they were Han Chinese, not directly descended, so it was easy to come here.

This is not Li Siyuan, Li Kexiu and other generals in the army. If they want to come here, they will definitely not be able to come without Li Keyong nodding.

"Just do what Ai Qing said?"

Li Ye ordered his servant Zhao Xi to go directly to Li Kexiu's dignitary, and sure enough, as Jing Xiang said, Li Kexiu didn't pick on the emperor in this matter, and he readily sent the talisman to the emperor's account.

Li Ye greeted him personally, and said: "When I was in Chang'an, I heard about the general's name. I am so relieved to see the general today!"

Fu Cun was still wondering, is my name so big that the emperor knows it?Although he received the emperor's courteous reception, he didn't feel very good at the moment.

Now he is in command of the lieutenant general, but he is no different from a pawn. Li Hanzhi sent him to Li Keyong, and after two years of hard work, he was promoted to lieutenant general.

Now it was changed hands and was given to His Majesty the Emperor by Li Kexiu.

His Majesty the Emperor has controlled His Majesty for many years, the talisman in front of him is too tender, and he puts all his thoughts on his face, and he can't escape the poisonous eyes of His Majesty the Emperor.

One sentence dispelled the grievances in Fu Cun's heart.

"After I met you that day, I kept thinking about it. I begged Li Jie for a few days before letting go. Don't blame me, General!"

The word "begging" directly broke Fu Cun's defenses, drifted away for several years, and was not valued by people until today, and this person is still in today's world, so what can he complain about.

"His Majesty……"

Li Ye supported Fu Cun, and for the time being bestowed the pro-military capital commander, who can participate in the military aircraft.

In the lobby of Liuhou's official residence in Luoyang, His Majesty the Emperor summoned Jingxiang, and the commanders of the various armies discussed matters.

"The main force of the thieves has reached Yique Pass, and I have ordered all the people outside Luoyang City to evacuate into Luoyang City to strengthen the defense of Luoyang City."

Like Guangcheng Pass, Cai Thief did not stop at Yique Pass, leaving a group of troops to watch Yique Pass. The main force bypassed Yique Pass and headed for Luoyang.

The enemy's chief general has now found out clearly that Zhang Xuan led the forward and has bypassed the Yique Pass, which is only half a day's journey away from Luoyang.

The main force is commanded by Qin Zongxin, and the deputy general is Qin Xian, who leads 6 horses, and the forward is only half a day away.

"Cai thief's scouts have detected outside Luoyang city!"

Li Ye was puzzled and said, "The bandits came from Guangcheng and Yique, and the food roads are impassable, so how can we continue!"

Zhu Zhen said: "Your Majesty, the Cai thieves often coerce the people in their battles. They have three purposes. One is to transport food and supplies, the other is to drive the former army to attack the city and pull out the villages. The third is that if the army lacks food, they will feed on the people. "

"..."

It was the first time for Fu Cun to participate in the emperor's military affairs. Of course, here, he is not qualified to speak. Looking at the huge sand table in front of him, Heluo and the surrounding mountains and rivers are all in front of him.

The red and blue flags show the situation of the enemy and all sides. As a general, he is not happy to see such a fetish. If he looks carefully, he seems to see thousands of troops running on the sand table, so happy.

Fu Cun lost his mind for a while, and subconsciously approached the sand table.

Zhu Zhen, Gao Wenmin and other generals didn't know Fu Cun. Jing Xiang wanted to remind him, but His Majesty shook his head.

When Fu Cun's eyes regained clarity, he saw a circle of people around him, including His Majesty the Emperor, looking at him without making a sound.

Young man, not too thick-skinned, suddenly panicked and at a loss what to do.

Li Ye laughed and said, "The bandits are approaching, what clever plan does General Fu have to deal with it?"

Fu Cun shook his head, he just looked at the sand table and was happy. He didn't know the situation of the enemy and us, the composition of His Majesty's armies, and the combat power. He didn't know what he could say.

"Your Majesty, the last general dare not speak lightly. You lost your composure just now. Your Majesty, please punish me."

Li Ye nodded, Fu Cun was not like most young people, in order to perform in front of the emperor, he boasted a lot, which greatly added points to his majesty's impression.

"Cai's [-] army has [-] cavalry, the rest are infantry, and seven to eight out of ten armored soldiers are all veterans of the army. The forward [-] can arrive in no time.

I have more than [-] infantry and more than [-] cavalry under my command. The combat strength varies, but there are only [-] cavalry in the field. General Fu thinks, what will this battle be like? "

It is recorded in the history books that Fu Cun is good at discussing military affairs and has unique opinions. On such an occasion, Fu Cun should not be allowed to speak. , a chance to make a name for yourself.

Fu Cun thought for a long time, then Fang said: "Your Majesty, how far is Cai Zei's forward from the brigade?"

"Half a day's journey!"

Fu Cun nodded and said: "Why don't you send all the troops to wipe out the bandits' vanguard before the bandits' rear army arrives. In this way, the morale of the enemy army will collapse. Although there are many rear troops, there is nothing to worry about!"

After Fu Cun finished speaking, Zhu Zhen followed suit and nodded, which was also what he proposed to the emperor.

His Majesty the Emperor looked at Zhu Zhen, then at Fu Cun, the two had the same opinion.
