Long Tian looked at this tragic scene unmoved. This is the main theme of this world, life is like grass.
Shortly after the enemy attacked the city, Bai Qi, Yuan Chonghuan, and Chen Qingzhi, who had ambushed out of the city in advance, appeared with 210,000 powerful cavalry.
Not only them, but also Zhao Yun, Yuwen Chengdu and other generals to help.
"Fight with all your strength, and don't leave any enemy generals alive. We only want soldiers to be captured."
Bai Qi gave orders while charging.
As generals, their strength has exceeded the third rank. Long Tian's skills are no longer effective. Even if these people are subdued, they cannot guarantee their loyalty. They may bring disaster in the future. Just take the opportunity to kill them all.
At the same time, Yuan Chonghuan and Chen Qingzhi also conveyed the same order.
Under the city wall, Bai Qi led the heavy armored cavalry to attack the enemy's formation horizontally. No matter who they met, they would rush forward. This is the power of the heavy armored cavalry, which is invincible.
The White Robe Army and Guanning Iron Cavalry attacked the enemy's rear. The center was in chaos, and the rear was attacked. The entire coalition was surrounded and in chaos.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the enemy immediately responded by sending a small number of heavy armored infantry to stop the Tianlong Guards and sending tens of thousands of cavalry to resist the White Robe Army.
As for the Guanning Iron Cavalry, they were powerless and could only rely on the soldiers to fend for themselves.
At this time, the two sides were fighting each other, and the archers had lost their function. These enemy archers were in the rear to assist in the siege, and were attacked by the two cavalry, leaving little.
The overall situation was determined. Long Tian looked at the battlefield outside and was clear in his mind. Next, it depends on the specific gains.
"General Li, the combat effectiveness of my Zhenbei Army is okay."
Looking at Li Chengye beside him, Long Tian said.
Li Chengye had just joined and had no command at this time. He was in the probation period. It was just right to use this battle to let Li Chengye understand the Zhenbei Army.
"Your Highness, the combat effectiveness of the Zhenbei Army is second to none in the vicinity of Xia State, as far as I know."
Li Chengye sighed inwardly. Who could have thought that a northern border actually had 200,000 cavalrymen formed by fourth-grade warriors, and 10,000 heavy armored cavalrymen with strength reaching the fifth grade.
Based on Li Chengye's understanding of Xia State, no army can be the opponent of these cavalrymen, unless they are well prepared and have targeted designs.
"This is just a part of my northern border's strength, and of course it is the absolute main force. After this battle, this prince will take them away to deal with the barbarians and Liang State. This is left to you and Xiang Yu. I hope you can unite sincerely."
Long Tian is relatively relieved about Li Chengye, not to mention that there are people watching him in the shadows, but it is impossible to reuse him. Long Tian doesn't need this person.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Since I have joined the Zhenbei Army, I will never change my mind. I am a person of the northern border in life and death."
Li Chengye understood Long Tian's meaning and immediately expressed his loyalty.
Li Chengye didn't seek to achieve much, just to be stable. Moreover, through the contact with the generals of Zhenbei Army in the past two days, Li Chengye knew that he was the only supreme grandmaster of Zhenbei Army.
However, in terms of combat power, I am afraid that I, the supreme grandmaster, can't even be ranked in the top ten.
If Long Tian knew Li Chengye's thoughts, he would definitely say that you are too conservative and you are definitely not in the top ten.
As the war continued, the coalition forces had shown signs of defeat, especially generals like Bai Qi, who specifically picked enemy generals to kill, and even some middle and low-level generals were not spared.
The chaotic army, the generals died in battle, lacked effective command, and the strength gap was obvious, and the defeat was inevitable.
Long Tian was not interested in watching any more, and no longer had any expectations, so Long Tian returned to the Prince Wen's Mansion.
"Your Highness, Yucheng City Lord Yu Hualong sent a message, hoping that you would go to Yucheng. This newly arrived governor is a little ungrateful."
After seeing that Zongzhou was pacified and the city guards had undergone major changes, Yu Hualong, the Yucheng City Lord, decisively joined Long Tian with the garrison commander Zhang Yang.
These two knew the current situation and were flexible. After recognizing the situation, they immediately made a choice.
"Don't worry about him. Leave him alone for a few days. When the battle in Lucheng is over, we will return and deal with him."
A governor, even if he is from a big family in Kyoto, what does it matter? If he doesn't obey, Long Tian has plenty of ways to deal with him.
"Your Highness, we really need to finish things here quickly. General Huo Qubing and General Ran Min have military reports. The war on the border is not far away."
Long Tian was also anxious. Although Long Tian didn't care about these things before, he also knew that there would be a war in the north at this time.
"Has Yue Fei's Xingzhou army retreated?"
It has been a while since the Xingzhou army arrived at the northern border.
"Not yet, we are still negotiating with General Yue to borrow their passage."
The old emperor was quite persistent."You wish. Tell Yue Fei and Lu Bu that no one in the imperial army can pass through our northern border. If anyone provokes us, don't hold back. As long as we don't leave the northern border, we don't have to be afraid of causing trouble."
Long Tian knew that there would be a lot of friction between the two sides in the confrontation with the imperial army. Long Tian would never tie his hands and feet and let his own people suffer.
Long Tian believed that the old emperor did not dare to start a war. Small frictions did not matter. As long as the northern border did not send troops to enter Qingzhou, everything could be controlled.
A day passed quickly. The battle in Lucheng did not take long. It was over in less than a day.
"Your Highness, the battle is over."
"In this battle, our army captured more than 500,000 prisoners of the coalition forces. I will let some of the wounded go, and there are still 400,000 available soldiers."
After Bai Qi cleaned up the mess, he returned to Prince Wen's Mansion.
"Okay, start the conquest work immediately. Those who don't obey will be killed. All enemy generals will not be spared. We must strengthen our strength in a short time."
"Send a message to Qiyun State. Qiyun State needs to be responsible for this war. If it does not make corresponding compensation, our Xia State army will definitely flatten Qiyun State."
Although we will not fight for the time being, we still need benefits and warnings. Even if we don't get them, they will be an excuse for future wars.
600,000 Zhenbei troops guard Lucheng, and 300,000 are responsible for the safety of various cities in Zongzhou. 200,000 will stay with Xu Huang to guard Yunzhou, and 500,000 troops will be transferred to the northern border.
Long Tian gained a lot from this trip to Zongzhou.
In this expedition, the 60,000 Zhenbei troops brought by Long Tian were almost lost. For the subsequent 200,000 troops, Long Tian plans to let Zhang Liao lead troops to support Baijiang City.
There is one last problem. After dealing with the new governor of Zongzhou, Long Tian can leave Zongzhou with confidence.
In the next few days, Lucheng was busy recruiting and training. In order to strengthen the border forces, Long Tian decided to keep Zhang He to help Xiang Yu.
After all the affairs were handled, Long Tian led his army to leave Lucheng and the next stop was Yucheng.
