Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1125 Ice Breaking Technique
The Xiangfu army surrounded them and aimed at them with bows and crossbows strung up.Tang Peng was also found, captured alive and thrown aside alone.

After Zhan Xiongwu and Tuoba Glulue discussed it, the former suddenly said: "Your commander will make the above officers come out."

Immediately, nearly a hundred officers came out with a sigh of relief. According to the usual practice, they obviously had to be beaten, and then they had to be relied on to control the troops.

However, when they all came out and stood in front of Zhan Xiongwu, Zhan Xiongwu gave them a cold look and said: "The reason why you rebelled is because you generals are for your own self-interest."

"Kill them all."

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of crossbow arrows shot at the hundred Song Army officers, and they all fell to the ground before they could scream.

The [-] Northwest Frontier Army infantry squatting on the ground were in a commotion, but under the threat of thousands of crossbows around them, no one dared to move in the end.

"You yearn for my Xiangfu country, I know this general, now I will give you a chance, if you want to join my Xiangfu country, squat down and don't move, if you don't want to join, I will give you another chance today, you can leave on your own. We will never stop it." Zhan Xiong Wu said.

After a while, nearly a thousand soldiers of the Song Army stood up after hesitating for a while, and walked outside.After these people walked more than ten steps and saw that they hadn't been killed, they started running.At this moment, Zhan Xiong Wu said again: "Kill them all."

There was another rain of arrows, and nearly a thousand soldiers of the Song Army fell down.

Next, Zhan Xiongwu and Tuoba Gelu directly disrupted the formation of nearly [-] Song troops on the spot, established four brigades according to the system of Xiangfu Kingdom, and drove them all back to the camp where Huang Dongqiu was.Even if Huang Dongqiu completely disrupted the nearly [-] Song troops, they were assigned to each battalion and company of the Xuanwu Army and the White Wolf Army, completely eliminating the possibility of these Song troops betraying again.

……

……

In the evening, the messenger sent by Ye Chen finally rushed over after a narrow escape.

"What's going on?" Huang Dongqiu had just received the messenger, and Tuoba Gelu and Zhan Xiongwu who got the news hurried over to the tent.

"Your Majesty gave us the order to go to Wangjiashan immediately after breaking out of the encirclement, join Yang Tingding's troops, raid Xingwen County, and then lead the troops back to Hedong Road."

"What about the territory laid down by the two roads in Hebei?" Tuoba Gelu swallowed.

"Give up everything!" Huang Dongqiu was also unwilling when he said this.

"We're leaving, where is Your Majesty? What about Your Majesty?" Tuoba Gelu yelled.

"Your Majesty, there are other arrangements!" Huang Dongqiu said, "Your Majesty, let us rest assured that he will be fine."

……

……

Ye Chen stood by the Yongding River, looking at the frozen Yongding River for thousands of miles. Luo Yaoshun, Tang Xingwu, and Hei Yue were by his side. Along the Yongding River, they have gone back nearly a hundred miles. Around them, there are more and more soldiers from Song Dynasty Guo Wuwei, Dangjin and Liao Kingdom. In the past few days, and now several days a day, all kinds of information obtained by the scouts have been sent to Ye Chen.

Luo Yaoshun and the others felt a little heavy in their hearts, and they didn't know how to get rid of the dead situation in front of them.Ye Chen took a few steps, stepped on it lightly, and the hard ice surface, which could withstand thousands of troops, cracked like a spider's web with a length of more than ten steps.

"How many enemies have gathered around us?" Ye Chen frowned slightly, looking at the cracks on the ice that he had created with great force, and asked casually.

"Your Majesty, according to the news brought back by the scouts, the number is now at least close to [-]. Guo Wuwei and Dangjin should have brought over the rebellious Song Army. Most of Shi Fatty and Xiao Wanda's troops were killed by Huang Dongqiu and the others. Containment attracts the past." Hei Yue said worriedly.

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "It's really desperate. It seems that Li Mingxuan let our army fight with the Liao army to consume the strength of the Liao army, and at the same time let Dang Jin and Guo Wuwei lead an army of [-] to besiege and kill me."

Luo Yaoshun said: "Your Majesty, although the Song army has as many as [-] soldiers, after two rebellions, many of the soldiers yearn for our Xiangfu country and are loyal to His Majesty. I think the morale of the army will be greatly affected. See, the [-] Song troops can have [-]% of the usual combat power, which is not bad."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "That makes sense."

Tang Xingwu's eyes flashed, and he said, "Your Majesty, I don't understand something."

Ye Chen glanced at Tang Xingwu and said, "Is there anything unknown about Tang Aiqing?"

"Your Majesty, the enemy's encirclement situation is not very tight yet. Why don't we break out before the enemy completes the encirclement? Now that we are moving slowly, isn't it just the time for the enemy to mobilize their troops and surround us tightly?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said: "Tang Xingwu, you are right, I have thought of this problem too, but I have received the latest information and learned that the current phenomenon is deliberately shown to us by the enemy, it seems not strict The encirclement is actually a trap. Now there are nearly 30 enemies gathered near us. They want us to break out of the encirclement and consume our troops? There is a big circle outside this circle. How many people do we have? More than [-] people, no matter how powerful the soldiers of the Tianwei Legion are, it is not enough for them to consume?"

Tang Xingwu's heart trembled, knowing that His Majesty's news came from Yu Jianye, the number one confidant of Liao Jun Shifa's side.Seeing that Ye Chen looked confident and didn't have the look that a person in life-and-death crisis should have, the entanglement and struggle in his heart became even worse.

"Your Majesty, if it continues like this, we won't be able to delay it for long." Tang Xingwu said again.

"Wait a little longer, time is not good for us, but the Song army can't afford it either, because they don't have much food and grass, and their morale will be difficult to maintain over time."

After walking a bit on the ice, Ye Chen suddenly smiled and said, "Huang Dongqiu, Zhan Xiongwu and Tuoba Gelu played well on the outside?"

Several people shook their heads. The information from Huang Dongqiu's surroundings had only been transmitted in the past two days. They only knew that Huang Dongqiu had won several victories in a row, tore a big hole in the encircled enemies, and was marching towards Wangjiashan with great strides, seeking to fight with him. Yang Tingding met there.

"Is there a well salt mine in Xizi Town, which we laid down a few days ago?" The three of them were still thinking about Ye Chen's words, but Ye Chen had suddenly changed the subject.

Seeing that Hei Yue and Luo Yaoshun didn't react, Tang Xingwu hurried up and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, but the salt workers there had almost run out when the Liao army went south in the early stage, and there are hundreds of thousands of salt workers in the well." Jin, other harvests are simply negligible, the salt used to be worth some money, but now it is not food."

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Maybe it's useful too!"

Several people were stunned, what's the use of salt at this moment, and it can't be eaten as a meal.

A few people walked up the glacier all the way, while talking, Ye Chen stepped hard from time to time to test the thickness of the ice on the river.

Finally, Ye Chen ordered someone to get a bag of salt and put it on the ice. Luo Yaoshun looked at Ye Chen: "Your Majesty, the things are here!"

Ye Chen nodded and pointed to a distance of one meter, "Make a small hole and dig half a foot deep!"

Hei Yue and Tang Xingwu started immediately. After digging about half a foot deep, Ye Chen stood up, picked up the salt, and poured some into the hole.

All three of them were Monk Zhang Er who couldn't figure it out, and didn't know what Ye Chen wanted to do.He just followed Ye Chen and squatted down, staring at the hole intently.

Soon, something that stunned Luo Yaoshun and others appeared in the small hole, and the ice surface had dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye, that is to say, the ice was melting rapidly. After the time for the two sticks of incense passed, there was a soft sound, and the ice surface melted, revealing the flowing water below. Ye Chen laughed loudly and stood up.

"Understood?" He looked at the three people around him.

All three shook their heads.

"Salt can break the ice!" Ye Chen smiled, "Guo Wuwei's 5 East soldiers are on the other side of the Yongding River." Ye Chen's tone turned sharp, "Are you going to kill these [-] people?"

"Your Majesty, it is possible to break the ice in such a small place, but it is not easy to break the ice on a large scale, and it is not easy for the enemy to notice." Hei Yue said.

Ye Chen nodded and said: "You're right, it's up to us to work hard, we don't have enough troops, but you won't let me down if you lead the [-] Heavenly Guards!"

Hei Yue immediately puffed up her chest and said loudly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."

Ye Chen looked at the vast ice surface and said with a smile: "When the [-] Song troops came to attack us, and when the battle was in full swing, their troops poured towards us through the Yongding River in an endless stream. Who would have thought that it would be as thick as three feet? The thick ice will break open with a bang, thousands of soldiers will fall into the glacier, those behind will not be able to get through, and those in front will not be able to go back. Imagine what it would be like.”

Hei Yue and Luo Yaoshun's eyes flickered immediately, while Tang Xingwu was filled with emotion, thinking that His Majesty would probably perform a miracle again.

Standing in front of the huge sand table in the tent, Ye Chen leaned over and stared at the densely packed blue flags on the sand table. When he saw a few protruding blue flags, he couldn't help showing a sneer on his face, and said: "Guo Wuwei and the team led by Dang Jin The Song army rushed forward, but the [-] Liao army led by Xiao Wanda, who came with them, was obviously lagging behind, at least a day's journey away."

"Your Majesty, I think that we can take advantage of the time difference of one and a half days to launch a sneak attack on the nearly [-] cavalrymen of the Dangjin Office and Guo Wuwei's Hedong soldiers."

Ye Chen sighed, shook his head, and said: "It's a pity, if we have enough troops, we can really defeat each of them by relying on them being so alienated and plotting against each other."
