Chapter 335: The Great War is Coming
The reward is nothing, if you don't work together to tide over the difficulties now, I'm afraid that you will be arrested back to Chang'an and live a life of fear.
Dong Cheng said respectfully, "This is the duty of the minister, Your Majesty does not need to be rewarded, the current situation is critical, the minister is ready to leave immediately, what does Your Majesty think?"
Liu Xie said, "Okay, then Aiqing went to General Xu Huang and asked him for some entourage, and he has been kept safe all the way." ”
Dong Cheng got up and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty must also pay attention to safety, and if you find that the situation is not right, you will retreat immediately." ”
Liu Xie nodded and said, "Go ahead, the widow will protect himself." ”
Dong Cheng slowly turned around and lifted the curtain, glanced around, shook his head and got out of the car, looking for Xu Huang to come to more than ten entourages, so he hurriedly set off and went to Hanoi.
After Dong Cheng left, Liu Xie still felt uneasy in his heart, and ordered the team to move forward at full speed, and if anyone left behind, they would be left to fend for themselves.
Seeing this, the civil and military officials in the team were frightened, and they no longer dared to procrastinate, and used all their strength to hurry.
In the Mao Jie, where the car was waiting, Dong Cheng had not been seen coming back for a long time, and seeing the team speeding up, he guessed that it must be the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to increase the troops, so he found an entourage and asked him to go to the rear to investigate, and then send the news back to Yanzhou.
The situation changed extremely tensely, and the news of the acceleration of Liu Xie's department also reached the Xiliang army, waking up the sleeping Li Dao and others.
Hurriedly gathering his subordinates, Li and the others decided to launch an offensive in advance to avoid any accidents.
Looking at the subordinates who came, Li Dao opened his mouth and said, "I wanted to rest for a day, but this majesty didn't let people worry, so Ben decided to send troops immediately, and who would like to take the lead"
This is a battle feat within reach, and after hearing the order, the generals and colonels of the Xiliang Army have asked for battle.
"I didn't want to."
"I didn't want to."
"I didn't want to."
Seeing that his subordinates were eager to fight, Li Dao was also satisfied, but out of consideration, he still chose to send Wang Chang to fight.
"General Wang, your unit has been resting for many days, and you know the current situation very well, this battle is handed over to you, can you be confident."
Wang Chang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said, "The general can rest assured, the general will never live up to the high expectations." ”
"Okay, let's go quickly." Li Wei nodded and waved his hand.
Seeing that Wang Chang was about to leave, Guo Yan shouted loudly, "Wait, I thought that there would be some inappropriateness just by relying on General Wang's subordinates, so it is better to increase the army by 5,000 and seek a steady victory." ”
This war robbed the Son of Heaven and related to the right to speak in the court in the future, and Guo Yan naturally would not let Li Dao alone take the limelight.
The coalition forces are fighting, most afraid of the two sides centrifugation, Li Dao galloped the field for many years, and knew this well, so he said, "Okay, then ask General Guo to send another 5,000 troops." ”
Seeing that Li Dao was so happy, Guo Yan also nodded with satisfaction, and ordered the general Li Guang, "Li Guang listens to the order and orders you to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to take back the Son of Heaven with General Wang." ”
"Yes, the general has not received the order" The sudden arrival of fat meat made Li Guang overjoyed, and he hurriedly received his life.
Seeing the two leave, everyone present was envious.
Li Dao looked at his eyes and said to Guo Yan, "Although the white wave thief is vulnerable, I have to prepare another hand to avoid any situation." ”
"Hmm." Guo Yan nodded and said, "Okay, then you and I will gather an army and prepare to attack at any time." ”
The two discussed, and each led his generals to lead the army to the battlefield at any time.
And Xu Huang received 5,000 soldiers and horses, and immediately began to arrange, set up a checkpoint at a dangerous slope and narrow road, and occupied the commanding heights on both sides, and prepared more boulders and rolling logs, which has broken the impact of Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
After arranging everything, Xu Huang hurriedly reported to Liu Xie.
Riding a horse all the way and finding Liu Xie's car, Xu Huang hurriedly dismounted and shouted, "Your Majesty, Minister Xu Huang asks to see you." ”
Hearing the voice, Liu Xie poked his head out and said, "General Xu is here, but what's the situation." ”
Xu Huang replied, "Back to Your Majesty, the Xiliang Army has not yet launched an attack, but the minister thinks that they should come soon." ”
"Oh." Liu Xie's heart trembled, and asked, "Xu Aiqing is sure of this battle?"
Xu Huang shook his head slightly, and then reassured, "Your Majesty, rest assured, it will be easy for the ministers to block for a few days and win time for Your Majesty to retreat." ”
Liu Xie's heart was a little calm, and then he said, "Okay, then Xu Aiqing should also take care, if the situation is not right, retreat quickly, and the widow will resonate with Aiqing." ”
Hearing this, Xu Huang was moved in his heart, hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will come back alive, the war is urgent, the minister will not stay long, and Your Majesty will also take care of your body." ”
"Driving" Xu Huang finished speaking, grabbed his horse and ran to the rear.
Looking at Xu Huangyuan's back, Liu Xie thought in his heart and ordered the team not to stop to rest before they arrived in front of Hongnong.
When the news was conveyed, the accompanying ministers of civil and military affairs were all mournful, complaining that they were too tired.
But there is no way, staying is a dead end, you can only say a few words of protest, and you don't dare to stay at all.
It is said that Xu Huang returned to the rear, and before he could catch his breath, he learned that the Xiliang army led more than 10,000 iron cavalry and was rushing towards this place, and there were only five miles left.
This Xiliang Tie rode so fast, looked up at the sun in the sky, Xu Huang estimated in his heart, there are about two or three hours, and the sky should be dark.
This also restricts the cavalry, Xu Huang shouted, "Leave five hundred spears to prohibit the army, follow the general here to meet the enemy, and the rest of the soldiers go to the rear one mile, dig a big pit, the more the better, be sure to fill the road." ”
As soon as the order came out, more than a thousand forbidden troops behind him immediately automatically divided into two columns.
The adjutant general who followed heard the order and hurriedly led his troops to leave to prepare.
In the land of five miles, the cavalry did not need much time at all, and not long after Xu Huang's order was issued, he saw the smoke and dust billowing in front of him, and the overwhelming Xiliang iron cavalry rushed over, and the Baibo army guarding it trembled with fright.
Before the battle, the soldiers were already frightened, and if they did not boost their morale, they were afraid that they would not be able to resist for long.
"The soldiers of Xiliang Iron Cavalry are guilty, we are deeply blessed by heaven, it is the time to serve the country with our bodies, and we will meet them" Xu Huang finished speaking, and rushed over first.
Xu Huang's fearless courage made the five hundred forbidden troops behind him admire from the bottom of their hearts, and they followed one after another.
Since Xu Huang took over the forbidden army, he has taken over them and cared for them, making them feel respect that they have never felt before.
No longer like the thieves on the mountain in the past, the leader beat and scolded them.
Although Xu Huang will be harsh on them sometimes, they all make mistakes first, so in just a few days, Xu Huang has gained their sense of belonging.
Getting back to the point, Xu Huang rushed to a distance of two hundred meters from Xiliang Tieqi, and shouted loudly with an axe, "Your Majesty's car is driving here, what do you want, is it to rebel?"
Wang Chang was cautious, and when he saw that the road behind him was narrow, he knew that it was not conducive to the cavalry as a soldier, so he had the intention of persuading him to surrender.
It's better to act than to move, Wang Chang pointed at Xu Huang with a knife and asked, "Who can be named?"
Xu Huang shouted loudly, "Hedong Xu Huang is here, you wait for the rebels to retreat quickly"
