Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Congji rushed to the Chinese army's tent at full speed. When he saw from a distance that Cai You, who had been guarding outside the tent in the morning, disappeared, he felt something bad.

    When he arrived at the big tent, Li Congji dismounted and was about to shout for permission when he smelled the smell of blood.

    "No, it's possible that a thief is trying to assassinate me."

    Li Congji, who had been fighting for many years, was very sensitive to the smell of blood. He immediately pulled out his sword and carefully lifted up the tent, only to see the beautiful lady Cai You brought lying in a pool of blood.

    Li Congji was cautious, fearing that there was a thief hidden inside and he would be assassinated if he entered rashly, so he stood outside the tent and shouted: "Sir."

    As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Mei Ji, who was lying in a pool of blood, make a weak voice: "Save me."

    Li Congji saw that Meiji was not dead yet, so he quickly asked: "Where is your lord?"

    "Runsavesave"

    Before he could finish speaking, his head dropped and he became silent.

    "Asshole."

    When Li Congji heard that Cai You had run away, he couldn't help but cursed angrily, put away the knife, and entered the tent. He saw that Mei Ji's eyes were wide open and the luster had gone out of her eyes.

    Li Congji took a breath, then wiped a handful on Meiji's face and asked her to close her eyes.

    When Li Congji turned around and walked out of the tent, he couldn't help but hesitate.

    Cai You handed over the command of the army to him today. He was a little happy before. He became the commander of the same four military governors, but now the identity of this temporary commander has become a reminder.

    Once the news of Cai You's escape spreads, the army will collapse in an instant.

    With Cai You's favor in front of the emperor, and the lingering shadow of the old thief Cai Jing, Cai You should not be punished too much.  I am afraid that the responsibility for the defeat will be placed on him as the temporary commander. The blame for the defeat of a hundred thousand troops may not only be beheading him, but also his whole family may not be saved.

    "Give it a try. If you can get through it, stick to it. Otherwise, it's better to surrender. It's better than going back and being a scapegoat for the traitor Cai You."

    Li Congji made up his mind, got on his horse and rushed to the camp gate.

    The officers and soldiers of the Song Army focused most of their attention on the back. Seeing Li Congji come back alone, someone in the military formation shouted: "Where is Cai You?"

    Li Congji shook his head and said: "My lord suffered a back injury and passed out. He is unable to come to the front line in person. When your lord wakes up, he will personally come to take charge."

    As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted: "Cai You ran away, leaving us to die."

    "Everyone ran away too."

    "Run"

    I don¡¯t know who pushed whom, and then the military formation became chaotic in an instant.

    Yang Wen and other three military governors saw a large number of soldiers fleeing back and shouted loudly. However, only a few of their soldiers and horses did not move, and the rest fled without looking back.

    Li Congji also knew that the situation was over, but instead of wasting his efforts, he rode towards Yang Wen and the others.

    Yang Wen said anxiously: "General Li, what should we do now?"

    Li Congji smiled bitterly and said: "Cai You ran away. I will be a scapegoat when I go back. I am ready to join Daliang. You can decide whether to stay or not."

    After saying that, he rode up to the front of his own troops and shouted: "The traitor Cai You has escaped. Now the imperial court is full of traitors who wield power. They are greedy for life and afraid of death, but they want us to sacrifice our lives. Now the defeat is determined, go back  I will be punished by the court. Even if I escape punishment, I may be sent to die. I have decided to submit to Daliang. If you don't want to follow me, please run away for your life."

    Most of the soldiers left behind were Li Congji's confidants. Someone immediately shouted: "Wherever the general goes, we will go."

    "Yes, we will follow the general."

    "Yes, we will follow the general."

    Under the clamor of the crowd, some people who wanted to leave were embarrassed, but of the more than a thousand people left behind, not one of them left.

    Next to them, Yang Wen and the other three looked at each other, but they all led the troops to flee back.  They are all generals of the imperial court and have great families and businesses, but they are unwilling to defect casually.

    Everyone here in Daliang couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw that the Song army collapsed instantly.

    Li Kui said anxiously: "Prince, let me kill them, otherwise they will all escape and my ax will be useless."

    Chao Yong shook his head and said: "The defeat of the Song army has been determined. Everyone is Han. If we can kill less, we can do less. Please ask General Han to recruit them."

    Han Cunbao, Li Congji and others had been getting along with each other for more than ten days, and they were unwilling to fight with them. When Chao Yong asked him to surrender, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes."

    When Han Cunbao arrived in front of Dazhai with his horses, there were only more than a thousand Li Congji left in the village.

    Arrive outside the villageAt the place of arrows, Han Cunbao shouted: "General Li, the defeat is now certain. Those who understand the current affairs are heroes."

    Han Cunbao originally thought he would have to waste a lot of words, but he didn't expect that as soon as he shouted, Li Congji said: "Li is willing to follow General Han's example and abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. I also ask General Han to introduce him on his behalf."

    Li Congji was also in disbelief. After deciding to surrender, he stopped pretending and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the camp gate.

    Li Congji rode out of the camp alone, raised his hands to Han Cunbao and said, "Thank you, General Han."

    Han Cunbao said with a smile: "General Li will treat me to a drink later."

    "must."

    Han Cunbao couldn't help but asked curiously: "General Li, is Cai You really running away?"

    General Li said with a look of disdain: "The traitor not only ran away, but also killed the woman he brought with him. He is really cruel. The emperor only uses traitors like Cai Jing and his son, and I am not willing to sacrifice my life for them."

    Han Cunbao nodded and said: "Many generals here in Daliang are heroes. They are upright and generous in their actions. It is easier to work with them."

    While talking, the two of them had already arrived in front of the Daliang Army formation.

    Li Congji turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee and said: "Li Congji was ignorant and mistakenly joined the Song Dynasty. Now he is willing to submit to Daliang and become a pawn of Daliang."

    Chao Yong also turned over and dismounted, helped Li Congji up, and said with a smile: "I have long heard the name of Li Congji, the Barking Mountain Dog. He was also a well-known hero in the green forest. I have the general to help me, which is like adding wings to a tiger."

    Li Kui, however, jumped up and down anxiously and shouted: "Prince, those Song soldiers have all run away. If we don't chase them, it will be too late."

    Chao Yong was also amused by Li Kui's appearance and said with a smile: "If you want to chase him, go for it. If you catch the prisoner, you will be rewarded. If you just fight, you will be punished if you hurt the soldiers and take no prisoners."

    Hearing this, Li Kui asked anxiously: "Why is there a punishment for killing Song Jun?"

    All the generals also looked at Chao Yong strangely.

    Chao Yong said sternly: "The Song army is also Han. Now they have been defeated and we have won the victory. You are just killing them for your own pleasure. It has no benefit to me, Daliang. I, Daliang, will not use it for a long time."  If we unify the country, then they will be my generals. I will use them to deal with Xixia, Liao, and Jin. You kill them all now, and then we can only train new soldiers, but what if we don't have time."

    The generals were greatly impressed by Chao Yong's overwhelming power.  While they were still thinking about how to unify the world, Chao Yong was already thinking about how to deal with other countries.

    Li Kui was stunned and said: "If we let them go back, won't they still be against us? It's better to kill them all."

    Chao Yong shook his head and said: "Even if they escape back, they will still be afraid of me, Daliang, and they will bring fear to other Song armies. If we kill them all, the Song Dynasty will recruit new soldiers and horses, and we will have to deal with them then."  They are our new opponents. Isn¡¯t it a sin to harm our Daliang soldiers in order to kill them?¡±

    Li Kui was a little confused and scratched his head.

    Liu Tang said: "Then they are so afraid of death, why do we want them to be prisoners? It is better to recruit new troops, so as not to ruin our reputation as a leader."

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "The new army is good, but it takes more than half a year to practice fighting on the battlefield. We don't have that much time, but the Song army is well-trained. If strict military discipline is implemented, they can still become a strong army.  The Song army is not weak, but has poor command and poor military discipline. In addition, Zhao Ji likes to use commanders like Cai You to lead the escape, so we can easily win with Zhao Ji as an internal agent. I believe we will be able to unify in a short time.  The world is over.¡±

    "Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard Chao Yong tell the emperor of the Song Dynasty what he had done.

    Li Kui thought for a while, came up with an idea, and shouted: "I have an idea. I won't bring any soldiers, and I will fight alone. This way I won't hurt the soldiers, and I won't be punished."

    "Yes, that's it. Prince, you can't stop me now, can you?"

    Chao Yong did not expect that Li Kui could actually come up with a way to exploit the loopholes in his words, and said helplessly: "Then you go ahead, but once they abandon their weapons, they can't kill anymore, lest Song Jiang fight to the death in the future."

    When Li Kui heard Chao Yong agreed, he immediately said happily: "Okay, I'm going."

    After saying that, he spread his legs and ran forward.

    Chao Yong saw Li Kui going straight to the Song Army's camp, and hurriedly shouted: "The officers in the camp are under General Li. They have surrendered. Don't kill indiscriminately, otherwise military law will be dealt with."

    Li Kui was originally staring at the Song army at the gate of the camp, but after hearing what Chao Yong said, he had no choice but to let them go and continue to chase them forward.

    Lu Junyi said curiously: "Since the prince thinks that it is better for those Song soldiers to escape than to kill them, why do they let themAre you going to kill him?  "

    Chao Yong smiled and said: "If we don't let him go, he will definitely make a noise here, and the Song soldiers have already been running away for a while. They must be afraid that my soldiers and horses will chase me, and they will run away one by one. Li Kui can't ride a horse, so he definitely  If you can't catch up, let him run a few dozen miles and come back for training."

    When everyone heard Chao Yong training Li Kui like this, they couldn't help but laugh again.

    Some leaders originally wanted to pursue them, but after hearing Chao Yong's analysis, they lost interest.

    After the Song army escaped, Chao Yong asked Han Cunbao to recruit Li Congji to surrender. It had been delayed for a while, and it was too late for the infantry to catch up.

    Only Hua Rong, who temporarily led Dong Ping's cavalry, still had a chance to make achievements, reported: "The Song army is mostly infantry. If the general leads the cavalry to catch up, he should be able to capture many people. Please allow the prince's permission."

    Chao Yong nodded and said: "Okay, General Hua will lead the cavalry army to intercept, and General Lin will lead the infantry and rush to receive the prisoners."

    "Get the order"

    Hua Rong and Lin Chong immediately ordered their troops and horses to pursue them.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
