- When Liu Zhongwu led Han Shizhong, four generals, and 7,000 troops to break through the Xixia people's obstruction, and were about to attack the Xixia army from both front and rear, they saw Xixia soldiers and horses rushing towards them with their heads in arms, and loud noises were heard from behind.
Although Liu Zhongwu didn¡¯t know what made the loud noise, he also knew that it must have been caused by the Daliang soldiers and horses, otherwise the Xixia soldiers and horses would not have fled so quickly, so he did not hesitate and blocked it with his army.
"Abandon weapons without killing"
"Abandon weapons without killing"
When uniform shouts came from behind, the Xixia soldiers and horses who could not escape threw away their weapons and surrendered. No one dared to resist the black-clad soldiers who surrounded them.
When Chao Yong chased him to the gate of Zhenrong Army, he reined in his horse, and the army stopped its pursuit.
Liu Zhongwu¡¯s two sons who were left to guard the city saw the prince in golden armor arriving at the bottom of the city, and hurriedly opened the city to greet him.
When a group of people entered the government office, Zhong Shidao sighed when he saw the four sons behind Liu Zhongwu: "Are they all here?"
Liu Zhongwu nodded a little tragically and proudly: "If they resisted the Xixia soldiers and horses, their death was not in vain."
Zhong Shidao explained to Chao Yong: "General Liu has nine sons, all of whom came to suppress the Rong army. Now there are only four left."
"On behalf of the people of the northwest, I would like to thank General Liu for his contribution in fighting Xixia."
Chao Yong stood up when he heard this and made a long bow. People who fight with their whole family are worthy of respect no matter what.
Liu Zhongwu hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "The last general is just doing his job as a minister and cannot be worthy of the prince's gift."
Chao Yong stood up and said solemnly: "General Liu has made great contributions to the people of the northwest. On behalf of the emperor, I will confer you the title of Zhenrong Bo."
The titles of Duke, Marquis, Uncle, Son, and Son in Daliang were passed down one level from one generation to the next. They had no fiefdoms and could receive a salary from the court every year. There are also some noble ceremonial guards that can be used, and the people should give way when they see them. In short, you can set the pedigree of the nobility, and the people must show a certain amount of respect, but there are no privileges.
This was also caused by Chao Yong. There were too many messy official names in the Northern Song Dynasty, so he went retro.
???????? Laozhong, the Minister of Economic Affairs, had the merit of managing the northwest, and he was granted the title of Duke of Northwest. Ren Liang presented the Yongxing army and was granted the title of Marquis of Yongxing.
When Liu Zhongwu heard that Chao Yong had given him the title, he hurriedly led the four sons behind him and knelt down on the ground. Said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, and thank you, Prince Edward, for your appreciation."
"If Daliang is not happy to kneel down, everyone will get up."
Chao Yong asked the names of Liu Zhongwu's four sons one by one. When asked about Liu Qi, he smiled and said: "When did you come back from Tokyo? I wanted to take you with me to reinforce the northwest, but I found that you were missing."
It turns out that Liu Zhongwu has some connections with Gao Qiu. When Gao Qiu came to the northwest to do military exploits, he was under Liu Zhongwu. As a result, the two had a certain affection, and Liu Qi was sent to Tokyo by Gao Qiu to become the queen of the pavilion.
Liu Zhongwu knew that Liangshan publicly executed Gao Qiu, and he had some contacts with Gao Qiu, so he was inevitably worried. The two of them just took what they needed. Gao Qiu needed some influence in the army, while Liu Zhongwu needed someone in the court to speak for him. No one can only win without losing. If he was punished for a single failure, there would be no veteran generals in the army. Therefore, everyone will make good friends with one or two ministers in the court. Of course, it's just one or two. If you make more friends, I'm afraid you won't have to be defeated, but you will be convicted. It has been a taboo in all dynasties for a general to have personal relations with the ministers of the DPRK and the DPRK.
After Chao Yong occupied Tokyo, he didn't know Liu Qi either. Later, after returning from the northwest, the officials found out that Liu Qi was the son of Liu Zhongwu, the general of the Western Army.
When Chao Yong sent someone to invite him, he found that Liu Qi had disappeared.
Liu Qi said awkwardly: "The general is worried about the northwest. After the blockade of Tokyo City was lifted, the general came back."
After Tokyo lifted the blockade, officials were still allowed to follow orders in Tokyo, but no one was sent to guard the officials, so many ran away. However, officials with a bad reputation in Tokyo were arrested early.
Chao Yong patted Liu Qi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Tiger father has no dog son, try to surpass your father."
Liu Zhongwu saw that the prince did not hold Liu Qi accountable, and the last trace of worry in his heart disappeared.
Turning around, he saw Yang Zhi talking to a burly man next to him, and said with a smile, "Who is this general?"
"The last general is Yang Keshi."
Chao Yong smiled and said, "General Yang?"
Yang Zhi nodded and said: "Brother from the Mojiang clan, his martial arts skills are still above those of the Mojiang."
"Okay, in the past, the Yang family's generals were famous all over the world. The two of you will work together to revive the Yang family's reputation."
When Han Shizhong saw the prince looking over, he clasped his fists and said, "The last general, Han Shizhong."
Chao Yong would naturally know that Han Shizhong, the famous anti-gold general, was on the same level as Yue Fei.
When you hear that the tall man in front of you is Han ShiAt this time, Chao Yong confirmed: "My wife's name is Liang Hongyu?"
Han Shizhong said in confusion: "My wife, Bai."
Could it be that you haven¡¯t married Liang Hongyu yet?
Chao Yong said without giving up: "Did you catch Fang La?"
Han Shizhong nodded and said, "Yes."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Then it's you, do your best, I'm optimistic about you."
Although he did not get the title, Han Shizhong was very happy to receive the prince's praise and hurriedly expressed his vow to serve the country to the death.
Listening to the prince¡¯s inexplicable question, Wu Song wondered: ¡°Is it possible that General Han is also the person in the prince¡¯s dream?¡±
Chao Yong was ready to continue his deception plan, nodded and said: "A person in Tiangang will definitely be able to make contributions on the battlefield."
Although there are gunpowder and divine thunder, before the advent of guns, cold weapon combat was still the mainstream.
If you use the divine thunder too much, people will become accustomed to it.
If you encounter those religious lunatics, I am afraid they will charge even more fiercely without fear of death. If you use divine thunder to attack an army holding a Quran in one hand and a sword in the other, someone will definitely describe him as an evil god, and then a group of madmen will howl to kill the evil god.
At this time, the most reliable ones are elite soldiers and generals.
Zhong Shidao asked doubtfully: "What Tiangang?"
Wu Song smiled and said: "The Nine Heavens Xuannv Empress often entrusts her dreams to the prince. The prince is protected by thirty-six heavenly gangs and seventy-two earthly evil spirits. The prince will know the names and things of some people in his dreams."
Hearing this, Master Zhong smiled and said, "That's it."
Chao Yong saw Zhong Shidao¡¯s reserved smile and knew that Zhong Shidao didn¡¯t believe him, so he said no more.
Han Shizhong also found it untrustworthy, but being able to board the prince's ship would be of no harm to him, and he had no right to doubt it. He didn't expect to get rich by relying on the prince's promotion, but with the prince's brilliance, at least no one would dare to take away his military glory.
He has been in the Western Army for more than ten years, and the lesson he learned is that you must have a strong superior, so that your credit will not become someone else's. The prince is undoubtedly the most powerful official in Daliang.
Although the Zhenrong army was besieged for more than twenty days, there was no shortage of food and grass in the city. Zhongshidao has collected a lot, and Daliang has also transported a lot of food and grass. Even if the Xixia soldiers and horses surround the city for another month, the city will not be short of food.
Soon, several sumptuous tables of wine and food were placed in the hall.
Chao Yong saw the wine, shook his head and said: "Pick up the best food and give it to the soldiers, but you are not allowed to drink. We will set off in the afternoon and spend the night in Sanchuan Village."
This battle lasted only an hour from the confrontation to the end of the chase, and there was still an hour before noon.
After everyone had a good meal, the results of the battle were reported. More than 15,000 Xixia people were captured and more than 10,000 people were killed. It was impossible to count the number of people who were shattered to pieces by the divine thunder. However, Chao Yong knew that there were not many of them, so he threw them away. He went out with a hundred divine thunders.
The Daliang troops led by Chao Yong suffered almost no casualties, and few Xixia people dared to resist the gods' tribesmen. However, Liu Zhongwu's 7,000 men suffered casualties of 3,000, nearly half.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT OF ?The Xixia people who were frightened by the gods were intercepted head-on. It was already good that the entire army was not wiped out.
The Xixia people did not fight with them, and did not even make a second move. Instead, they rushed forward without fear of death. They just casually stabbed those who stood in the way, and then ran forward desperately, regardless of whether the person on the other side was Instead of dodging his knife, he slashed him on the back.
Liu Zhongwu¡¯s troops killed more Xixia people, but many people died from the unconscious killings of the Xixia people. There were too many Xixia people who fled for their lives.
Hearing that another 3,000 casualties had been suffered, Zhong Shidao couldn't help but feel a little sad. I'm afraid there won't be many Deshun troops left. After repelling Xixia, the Western army was basically gone. Daliang has gunpowder, divine thunder, and a prince who is like a god. There can only be Daliang soldiers and horses in the world, but no family troops. It would be good to continue the family generals.
The Zhenrong Army needed to be garrisoned, and Liu Zhongwu also knew that he probably had no hope of going on an expedition. When the time came, he would have to deal with the prisoners, so he asked, "How to deal with these prisoners?"
Chao Yong said: "How to deal with it before?"
Liu Zhongwu said: "Generally, they are detained. After the war, the two countries exchange prisoners. If the Xixia people have no prisoners from our army, they will be replaced by Han people. Over the past few decades, Xixia has robbed countless Han people. Anyway, how many prisoners we have captured, Xixia There will be Han people who will exchange with us.¡±
Wu Song frowned and said: "Common people are much easier to capture than prisoners. As long as the Xixia people capture more common people, they don't have to worry about being captured."
Zhong Shidao shook his head and said: "Knowing that we had to change, the Han people fell into the hands of the Xixia people, either as slaves or as cannon fodder. When you faced Brother Cha before, there wasn't even a single Han. They must have all been lost in Zhenrong City. ¡±
Liu Zhongwu nodded and said: "The ones who attacked the city in the past few days were all young masters. Although we know that they are Han people, we have to take action, otherwise if we break the city, we will be the ones who die."
"Wu Song cursed: "He helped the Xixia people to kill us Han people. If I bump into them, I will show no mercy."
Li Ying, who pounced on Tiandiao, asked doubtfully: "Aren't the Xixia people afraid of them turning back?"
Liu Zhongwu shook his head and said: "I don't know. Generally, the whole family of a son-in-law is abducted. The family members are all in Xixia. Very few people rebel. The Han people who are abducted alone usually work as coolies in Xixia, and they will not be allowed close to the border. of."
Wu Song gritted his teeth and said: "Prince, we can defeat Xixia in one go, destroy Xixia, rescue all the Han people, and there is no need to exchange prisoners with them."
Chao Yong shook his head and said: "The soldiers are already very tired. We may not be able to penetrate deep into Xixia at this time."
Zhong Shidao nodded and said: "There are many deserts in Xixia, and once they enter, Xixia will definitely clear the country. Without sufficient preparation, it will be difficult to attack Xixia."
"Everyone, please be patient. When the army is fully rested, Xixia will be wiped out." - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
