Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 219 Directly Pointing to the Capital of Bohai Kingdom

Li Fei didn't take part in chasing and killing the defeated enemy. As soon as he returned to Gewuzhou City, Li Fei sent ten of the more than a hundred people protecting him to Chang'an City to report victory.

At this moment, two days have passed since he sent people from Liaoyang City to Chang'an City to report the Bohai Kingdom's invasion, and it will take one day to return from Gewuzhou City to Liaoyang City. People, it was about three days before the first wave of people who reported the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom, and he had asked the first wave of people to report the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom to Chang'an City to try to delay their arrival at Chang'an City as much as possible on the road.Although it may not be able to delay for two days, one day or one and a half days is not a problem, and the remaining one or one and a half days, the imperial court should not have discussed the countermeasures, but it can be passed a second faster to spread the news. Pass it on.

About an hour and a half later, Wu Sheng came back with the head of Shang Quanyi, the commander of the Bohai National Army, while Lu Xin continued to lead the hunt and kill the remaining soldiers of the Bohai National Army.

"Okay, that's great! With the head of the commander of the Bohai Army, no one can blame Li Fei for the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom!" Li Fei laughed, referring to Yang Guozhong or An Lushan, Compared with the anxiety of the previous two days, Li Fei felt relaxed now.

"What's the name of the commander of the Bohai National Army, have you asked clearly?" Li Fei asked Wu Sheng.

"Master Jiedushi, on the way back, my subordinates have already questioned the captured Bohai soldiers. Their commander's name is Shangquanyi." Wu Sheng replied.

"Well, that's it, then send another team to send Shangquanyi's head to Chang'an City!" Li Fei was very happy, this was the third wave of people Li Fei sent to Chang'an City.Later, there should be a fourth wave of people reporting the victory of the war.

The army of the Bohai State had 8 people, and there were still about [-] people who were lost when they went out to attack the city of Gewuzhou, as well as those who were killed or injured on the battlefield, and the defeated people were still about [-].

It was not until the evening that the army that went out to hunt and kill them brought their captives back to the city of Gewi state.

Among them were Yuan Kui and hundreds of garrison soldiers from Gobe State City.Although they were not a normal combat army, under the leadership of Yuan Kui, they captured more than 300 Bohai soldiers.

The knife in his hand and his body were stained with blood, but Yuan Kui only felt refreshed!
"Good job, he's a warrior!" Li Fei praised Yuan Kui a few words, and he became more and more fond of Yuan Kui, and began to have some ideas of reusing him.

Undoubtedly, the most captives were the Anton cavalry on horses. They captured more than 6000 Bohai soldiers, followed by the soldiers of the Modao formation. As infantry, they were far less chased by the cavalry. So quickly, only more than 5000 people were captured.

A total of 4 captives were counted. If you count those who were directly killed during the pursuit, at least [-] Bohai soldiers were lost.In other words, there are less than [-] soldiers from Bohai State who can escape.

After all, the number of soldiers of the Bohai Kingdom is nearly three times that of the Anton Army. If the numbers of the two sides are similar, the entire [-] army of the Bohai Kingdom can be wiped out.

However, even if there are almost 2 soldiers who can escape back to Bohai State, the loss of more than [-] soldiers in World War I is enough to seriously damage the vitality of Bohai State.

"Send another group of people to report the victory in Chang'an City, wait—" Li Fei thought for a while and said, "I'll write a memorial myself and send it to me!"

In addition to reporting the gains in this war, there were too many captured Bohai soldiers this time, and Li Fei also planned to let the court be responsible for the placement of most of the prisoners.

After finishing the memorial, Li Fei sighed helplessly.

Andong has a vast land and few people. This name is more "labour". It is also good to build roads and bridges. Unfortunately, Anlu Mountain may rebel in a year. This is a war that has spread to half of the Tang Dynasty. Anton is close to Pinglu Road, one of Anlu Mountain's lairs, so it is impossible to stay out of the matter. At that time, so many Bohai prisoners will be like a time bomb in Anton. It is better to hand it over to the court for placement now.

After this battle, it might not be a bad thing for Anton.

Anton's army was able to fight a real battle before the Anshi Rebellion, so that all soldiers saw blood, and the Bohai Kingdom was behind Anton. After all, it is different from history. Isn't there no such invasion of the [-] troops of the Bohai Kingdom in history?

"Order the whole army to rest for the night, and tomorrow morning, all the iron cavalry will follow me to the capital of Bohai Kingdom!" Li Fei planned to take only the iron cavalry, and the Modao formation stayed in Gewuzhou City to guard the prisoners.

Not only does Li Fei want to seriously hurt the vitality of the Bohai Kingdom, but he is also preparing to completely surrender the Bohai Kingdom. For a long time to come, even if Anton is empty, he will not dare to cause trouble.

The 200 Anton Iron Cavalry, because they just took advantage of the chaos from behind, defeated the army of the Bohai State at once, so the losses were limited. Only more than 300 people were injured, and only about [-] people were directly killed in battle. All lightly and seriously wounded were treated.

"Fight into Bohai Kingdom!" Early the next morning, Li Fei brought more than 8000 intact Anton cavalry into the territory of Bohai Kingdom, pointing directly at the capital of Bohai Kingdom.

-------
Gewuzhou City is about a day's distance from the capital city of Bohai Kingdom, Shangjing City, and Warhorse.

When King Bohai heard the news of the fiasco at the front line, it was already midnight, and he was so frightened that he rolled out of bed directly.

After more than an hour, the news of Shangquanyi's death also came.

Afterwards, the defeated soldiers continued to flee back to Shangjing, and the entire Bohai Kingdom was shaken. Not only the King Da Qinmao was terrified, but ordinary people were also terrified.Some people even yelled at their king, how could they suddenly send troops to attack Datang? They were defeated only a few days ago, and lost more than [-] soldiers, nearly half of the young and strong in the entire Bohai Kingdom. In fact, almost one out of every two households in Bohai State had a young and middle-aged household lost in this war.

This is not over yet, the next day there was another news that the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty entered the Bohai Kingdom, and they rushed straight to the capital.

The King of Bohai has never been so afraid. How come, in just a few days, the [-] army was defeated, and more than [-] people were lost. Even the Tang cavalry was about to approach the capital.

After the founding of the Bohai Kingdom, up to today, Shangjing City has never been approached by enemy soldiers, and I want to be the first to experience it.

"That trash of Shangquanyi, if he hadn't died outside, my king would have strangled him to death with his own hands!" King Bohai said through gritted teeth.

"What to do, what to do——" Anger could never cover up the fear in King Bohai's heart. After only a few breaths of scowling, King Bohai regained the fear on his face.For a while, I didn't know how to deal with it.

"Your Majesty, you should collect the remnant soldiers who have fled back from defeat, and with the original garrison force in Shangjing, you may be able to defend Shangjing!" The old official was released by King Bohai, and he proposed his own strategy to King Bohai, hoping It can help to defend the capital.
