Horse on the World

Chapter 426
Chang Shengshi broke the Mausoleum, which fell into Li Qing's expectation. If the Chang Sheng Division assembled by Dingzhou's elite has been preparing for nearly a year, but still can't defeat a mere underdog, it will really make him fly into a rage Yes, what he didn't expect was that it was so fast. Based on the marching schedule, Chang Sheng's division should arrive at Moling in no more than three days.

"So fast? Tell me how Jiang Kuina defeated Moling?" Li Qing got off his horse and asked the messenger with great interest.Nuoqia, Tang Hu, and Chen Zeyue all surrounded him, especially Chen Zeyue, who couldn't hide the envious look on his face.

The messenger smiled like a flower, and talked about the battle of Moling vividly.

Hearing that Jiang Kui made a nest cart that could allow cavalry to go directly to the city, Li Qing laughed loudly, "Jiang Kui, this kid, has learned to use his brain to fight, but I have to deal with him later. The last time I went to Luo Feng, he actually still Overturn the ambush with me, such a good thing will not be shown to me."

The messenger accompanied the smiling face, "Commander, last time you came to Luofeng, you came and went in a hurry. My general had arranged to surprise you, but you returned that night. Wouldn't this matter go to waste? !"

Li Qing chuckled, "You would excuse him, hey, last time I went to Luo Feng, how did you know?"

"The villain is General Jiang's personal soldier. I followed the general to greet you that day, so I know."

"So that's it. Well, you can continue!" Li Qing said with a smile.

"Little General Tian was so brave, he rushed to the city, and in an instant, he opened a gap in the city wall, and the big guys rushed forward, but the enemy general who defended the city was so cruel that he even used the eight-ox crossbow to shoot at them. Our own people were all shot down, seeing that General Tian was about to suffer a loss, at this time my general rushed to the top of the wall like a soldier from heaven, and the enemy couldn't hold back at once..." The messenger spoke convincingly Gao Cailie didn't notice that Li Qing's face was full of joy from the beginning, but slowly became sullen. It wasn't until Chen Zeyue coughed heavily on the side that he noticed something unusual, and he froze. Mouth, but I don't know where I went wrong, that's how it was at the time!

"Is your throat uncomfortable?" Li Qing turned his head and looked at Chen Zeyue coldly. Chen Zeyue's heart trembled, and he immediately lowered his head. Jiang Kui was his immediate boss. Seeing the messenger speak happily, he didn't know that Jiang Kui went into battle shirtless, which was already a violation. According to the military order issued by Li Qing himself, the more heroic he described Jiang Kui, the angrier Marshal Li would be, the poor boy thought he was adding glory to his general!

"You go!" Li Qing waved his hand, and the confused messenger turned and walked away, riding his horse towards the direction of Moling, and Nuo Qi'a on the side said: "Don't be angry, commander, in fact, General Jiang is so brave. Boosting morale is excellent, the battle of Moling can be won so quickly, it is inseparable from General Jiang's bravery!"

Li Qing shook his head, "The general is the soul of the army, Nuoqia, do you know why I want a commander above the Forbidden Division to fight in person?"

Nuoqia shook his head and said, "Commander, I don't understand either. In the past, when we were on the grassland, the generals rushed to the forefront to boost morale."

Li Qing shook his head secretly. In this era, it is impossible for the generals to change the concept of leading troops.

"In my Dingzhou, a division commander has tens of thousands of soldiers under his command. His task should be to make overall plans, centrally dispatch, wait and see the situation of the war, and respond at any time. The situation in wartime changes rapidly. How can it be the deployment place before the war? If you can fully predict and respond, the commander needs to make timely changes at this time, otherwise, if you make a wrong move, you will lose the whole game. If everyone is like Jiang Kui and goes into battle by himself, once the battle situation changes, how will he deal with it? , in the middle of the battlefield, how can he detect changes in time and respond?"

"The commander-in-chief is right!" Nuoqia nodded.

"This is the first thing. Second, on the battlefield, dangers can happen anytime and anywhere. If you are brave, a cold arrow can kill you. The soul of the future army, the supreme commander of an army, is here Being killed in a fierce battle can be imagined as a blow to the morale of the troops, and how many battles in history were defeated because of the accidental death of the supreme commander, we have to guard against it.”

"Thirdly, thousands of soldiers are easy to get, but one general is hard to find. Is it easy to train a qualified commander? How many soldiers' bones and blood are needed to allow them to accumulate enough battlefield experience? To die is not only irresponsible to oneself and the army, but also a blasphemy to those heroes who died for them."

"One will succeed and ten thousand will die!" Li Qing concluded loudly.

The generals around were all silent. Li Qing's words had too much impact on them. While Chen Zeyue was chewing on Li Qing's remark, he secretly worried for Jiang Kui. The general even raised this issue to such a high level. Speaking from a high level, I am afraid that General Jiang will not be able to escape after a heavy punishment. I thought in my heart that I should secretly send a letter to General Jiang, so that he can be mentally prepared, but after all, he won the battle. It is expected that the punishment will not be too heavy!
"Let's go!" Li Qing got on his horse, but he was sighing in his heart. Although he worked hard to train Jiang Kui, the country is easy to change, but his nature is hard to change. A commander in chief who blocks one side.

At this time, Jiang Kui, who was leading the Changsheng Battalion excitedly, and the cavalry from the two Battalions of the Whirlwind Battalion chasing Xu Ji, naturally did not know that Li Qing was furious because he went into battle shirtless. The soldiers who followed Xu Ji's escape from Moling chased them all over the mountains and plains.

In the Battle of Moling, the casualties of the Luzhou soldiers were not large. Of the [-] Luzhou soldiers, [-] escaped with Xu Ji, but the morale of the army was completely scattered, except for the thousands of former Luzhou standing troops who followed Xu Ji and fled. , The [-] new army has already messed up the organizational system, the soldiers did not see the generals, the generals did not see the soldiers, lost their weapons, Kai Jia, threw away all the things that affect the speed, let go of their feet and ran wildly, saw the water into the water, saw the mountains and the mountains .

But how could two feet run faster than four hooves, not to mention that Changsheng Camp and Xuanfeng Camp had eight hooves. Seeing that they couldn't escape, most of the Luzhou soldiers put their hands on their heads, squatted down on the spot, and surrendered.

Jiang Kui turned a blind eye to these Luzhou soldiers who surrendered, and his eyes were only fixed on Xu Ji's troops who were still in the system and fled. The Whirlwind Battalion really rushed past these surrendered soldiers like a whirlwind.

Dumbfounded, watching Jiang Kui's troops roll past him, it took a long time for the Luzhou soldiers to come to their senses. Then they realized that they didn't care about themselves at all, and those Luzhou soldiers who figured it out didn't run away. , but walked forward leisurely and leisurely.

Another gust of wind blew up in the back, and Wang Yan's Changsheng Battalion followed closely behind the Whirlwind Battalion. These deserters also had experience, and immediately squatted down again with their heads in their arms. It was not that Wang Yan's Changsheng Battalion was not as powerful as Jiang Kui's personal commander The whirlwind camp, but Wang Yan saw Jiang Kui running away, seeing the Luzhou deserters all over the mountains and plains, but he couldn't ignore it.We had to arrange a wing to sweep the tail behind to gather these deserters.After arranging all this, he was already tens of miles behind Jiang Kui, fearing that Jiang Kui might lose something, Wang Yancui urged the Changsheng Camp, and hurriedly chased in the direction of the smoke.

A scene that may be a miracle in the history of war appeared on the wilderness. Hundreds of Luzhou soldiers in gray clothes crouched on the ground with their heads in their hands, and sometimes there were only a dozen or so Dingzhou cavalrymen guarding them. But there were only dozens of them, Wang Yan's Changsheng Battalion only had a thousand cavalry in one wing, but now they have chased Xu Ji for hundreds of miles, and more and more surrendered troops were collected and captured along the way, and the strength of the guards has become more and more divided. It's getting thinner.

During this period of time, not only the Luzhou soldiers who surrendered were muttering in their hearts, but also the victors were beating a small drum in their hearts. More than a dozen of you guarded more than 100 prisoners. There is really no other way but to escape.People on both sides are tense.

Fortunately, this kind of day didn't last long. When it was getting dark, a battalion of infantry led by Tian Feng finally caught up. In addition, it is very good that infantry can ride on horseback, and you can't ask them to have the same riding skills as cavalry.

Gathering up the surrendered troops, Tian Feng was surprised to find that the number of surrendered troops at this time had exceeded [-]. He cautiously chose to set up camp, and first took care of these captives, and waited for the follow-up troops to arrive before taking these captives into custody. Go back to Moling.At the same time, a messenger was sent to Jiang Kui's department ahead, asking Jiang Kui to slow down.

But the cavalry wing of the Changsheng Battalion, after delivering the surrendered soldiers, hurriedly chased after their commander.

The unlucky Xu basically thought that the opponent had occupied Moling, and he had to stabilize the situation before marching towards Luzhou. He had plenty of time to escape, and he might even gather troops and rebuild the defense line, but he only ran for dozens of miles. , he was horrified to find that there was a lot of smoke and dust behind him, and the banner of the whirlwind battalion was faintly visible, and that damn Jiang Kui was relentlessly chasing after him.

At this time, the soldiers of Luzhou had been gutted. They had the city as their backing and were defeated by their opponents. Now that they don't have the support of the city, how dare they dare the Dingzhou cavalry to fight in the field? They have nothing else in their hearts except horses and gallops. idea.

Xu Ji was wrapped in the rebellious army. In order to reduce the burden on the horses, he took off his armor on the way to escape. At this time, his hair was disheveled and his clothes were in tatters.

"General, general, Dingzhou soldiers stopped ten miles behind!" An officer behind Duan chased after him and reported to Xu Ji out of breath.

Hearing this, Xu Ji heaved a long sigh of relief. It was finally over. Looking at himself, and then at the soldiers beside him, he couldn't help feeling ashamed. He still held a steel knife in his hand, Many soldiers even lost their weapons, except for the horses under their crotches, they had nothing left.

"Dingzhou soldiers, what can we do to stop them?" Xu Ji thought fearfully.
