Chapter 211: Lao Cheng's Worries
A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, and Luo Tong is obviously a good man. In the face of thousands of menacing men, Luo Tong turned around and ran. Although he is a bit two, he is not stupid. There are more than 200 people under his command, and they will definitely not be the opponent of the 6,000 Youzhou Iron Cavalry.
When passing by the city gate, he panicked and shouted to the soldiers at the gate to close the city gate. But before the soldiers could run to the city gate, they were shot to the ground by a rain of arrows.
The Youzhou Iron Cavalry is worthy of its reputation, and it is not inferior to the Turks in terms of riding and shooting. Thousands of cavalry rushed through the city gate in a noise.
After entering the city, Yang Qi didn't know what to do. After all, he was raised by Luo Yi, and he wanted to protect himself and didn't want to rebel. Thinking about it, Yang Qi felt that it was better to go home and have a look first. After all, his wife and children are at home, and he wants to know what is going on at home. He always didn't believe it, and none of the family ran out. They're not stupid, won't they run? If the fire is not large, some property may be salvageable. After being a soldier for so many years, it is not easy to save some belongings.
Galloping home with a cavalry wind, you can feel the heat wave two streets away. The smoke was so thick that people could barely breathe. Yang Qi's face was a little pale, where was his house on fire. The whole street is burning now, and there are ants everywhere fighting the fire. Wailing and screaming were chaotic, and some of the wounded were lying on the ground wailing.
"General Yang, General Yang. You came with soldiers to put out the fire? An old man on the side of the road shouted loudly to Yang Qi.
Yang Qi turned his head and saw his neighbor Zhang Laohan on the side of the road. The clothes on his body burned a lot of holes, and his hair, eyebrows, and beard were also burned away by the fire. The image is extremely embarrassing!
"Uncle Zhang, have you seen our family?" Seeing Zhang Laohan, Yang Qi hurriedly inquired about the situation at home.
"General Yang, this fire was started from your house. I don't know what's wrong, but a group of GIs came into your house. Then the fire burned, and the fire was big. The old man rushed with people several times, but failed to save a single person. Your whole family is ......! ”
"Luo Tong ......!" Yang Qi felt dizzy for a while, but he didn't expect things to be worse than the worst he thought.
"General, what should we do now, General Zhao's people in the city are in a mess. I heard that General Zhao was killed by Luo Tong. The guards around him ran back to the camp, and now those people were clamoring to go to the palace and seek revenge on Luo. Yang Qi's lieutenant reported in a whisper.
The generals of the two families have a good relationship, which leads to a good friendship between the generals and officers in private. Yang Qi's lieutenant received news when he entered the city that Zhao Cihao's military horses were preparing a mutiny.
"Let's go, go to the palace." Yang Qi roared, and the soldiers immediately rushed to Luo Yi's palace like a tide.
Luo Yi is now repentant, why did he send Luo Tong, the second pole, to do this. It's just a matter of killing people, but it's not a disaster for your wife and children, what are you setting fire to? Now the street of Zhao Cihao's house and the street of Yang Qi's house are all burned to pieces. Zhao Cihao said that he was killed on the street. But Yang Qi is still alive, and now he has led troops into the city. And in his hands, there are only three hundred guards of the palace. Even if you count the family, there are only five or six hundred people. How could it be the opponent of the six thousand Youzhou Iron Cavalry!
The captain who was sent to transfer Zhao Cihao's subordinates had his head hung on the gatehouse of the barracks. This shows that Zhao Cihao's subordinates have reversed. I was also dizzy at the beginning, why didn't I think about the consequences.
"Lord Wang, Yang Qi came in with soldiers." Luo Tong had a long wound on his face, and several feather arrows stuck in his body ran in.
"Humph! Wait for the old man to go out in person! "Glancing sideways at this idiot, he made all the troubles. But now he is the only one who can use it.
Luo Yi, who was draped all over his body, came to the gate of the palace and knew how serious the matter was. I thought that with my prestige, I could suppress these Qiu Ba. Unexpectedly, the door was already red-eyed. Luo Yi yelled a few times, but no one listened to him.
The arrows "swished" and "swished" in the air, and the sound of blades hitting was loud. At this time, even if someone wants to stop, they can't stop, you stop, but who knows if your opponent will stop. There is only one life, and no one will stop at the risk of being hacked to death.
The palace guards were obviously overwhelmed, even though they were all elite in the army. But Yang Qi and Zhao Cihao's subordinates combined, almost twenty times as many as theirs. If it weren't for the narrow streets, they would have attacked the palace a long time ago.
Luo Yi's heart was cold, he knew what the situation would be if the soldiers were in chaos. Since he has betrayed the name of rebellion, he has no reverence for his old master. Moreover, they wanted to die by themselves more than Li Tanglai.
A bloodied man killed in front of Luo Yi, and the horse lance in his hand could not be said to be stabbed in the chest. Luo Yi held the horse lance in his hand, and let the horse lance go as soon as he dragged it and hung it.
"Why?" Yang Qi missed the blow and roared like crazy.
"You fornicate with the eldest grandson Wuji......!" Luo Yi saw that it was Yang Qi, and immediately roared angrily.
"But Brother Zhao and I didn't promise them ......!" Before Yang Qi finished speaking, he found that the tip of a horse lance was sticking through his chest. Behind him was the rampant roar of Luo Tong!
"Why don't you believe us ......!" Yang Qi looked at Luo Yi with straight eyes, and his mouth spurted blood.
"You idiot......!" Luo Yi looked at Luo Tong, whose eyes were red, and wanted to kill this bastard with one shot.
****************************************************************************************************************
"It's still the eldest grandson, who is powerful, and we have not done anything with more than 100,000 people in the three-way army. Lord Changsun took a trip to Zhuozhou, and it was all done. Li Jing looked at the battle report in his hand and said to the eldest grandson Wuji.
"They are all capable of the people of the Hundred Cavalry Division, and Luo Yi is worthy of being the first fierce general in Youzhou that year. A single horse lance killed a hundred and ten people, and almost escaped. If it weren't for the people of the Hundred Cavalry Division who mixed in with the chaotic army and injured him with a strong crossbow, General Li would still have to continue to fight with Luo Yi now. The eldest grandson Wuji said faintly.
But in the end, the rebels cut it apart. Pity a generation of famous generals who ended up dead without a corpse. The family was also killed by the rebels, hey......! Li Ji thought of Luo Yi's fate, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Don't be sad, now the enemy army in front of us is scattered. The Goryeo and Turkic armies also withdrew from Empress Cang. Shall we pursue, or shall we continue to do something? You have to have a charter! Eldest Sun Shunde took a sip of tea, looked at Eldest Sun Wuji and said.
Among these generals, they are not subordinate to each other. The only thing that can make them harmonious is the high-powered eldest grandson Wuji. The enemy army is scattered, and the big guys are waiting to reap the benefits of military merit. But once these soldiers dispersed, they could not be controlled. Luo Yi's soldiers have become bandits, and Datang's soldiers are no better.
Hebei, which has been ravaged by war for a long time, will once again fall into chaos. The Qiu Ba people in the army made a lot of money, but they suffered the people of Hebei. This time, Hebei may not be able to recover in ten years.
"When I left Beijing, His Majesty only gave the old man this errand. The old man has no right to interfere in the affairs of the army. However, the old man thought that it was important to quickly stabilize the situation in Hebei. Since His Majesty has appointed General Li Jing as the general manager of the march of Youzhou Road. Then it's up to General Li to decide! "It's better to let Li Jing do this kind of thing that offends people. Anyway, he always can't stand in the line, and it's not a big deal to make one more mistake.
Li Jing glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji, and scolded the old fox in his heart. If these generals agree to their requests, the people on the ground in Hebei will be unlucky. These old bastards, he knows it all too well. Give a big eye with a pinnose, and they can tear a broad road. If they are scattered, the height of Hebei will be just around the corner.
"The old man is not good at this matter, so it is better to tell Your Majesty quickly. By His Majesty's Holy Judgment! "Li Jing is not stupid, he doesn't want to offend people and infame through the ages. The ball was kicked to Chang'an at once, and it was handed over to the superiors in case of difficulties, which has been the case since ancient times.
The generals scolded in their hearts, and it would take more than half a month to get from the front line to Chang'an at the earliest. If Li Er finds Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui to conduct theoretical research again, I am afraid that he will not be able to return the order for a month. Damn, at that time, the Goryeo Turks were long gone. It's a fart for military feats!
I thought so, but no one dared to say it. Do you dare to do the emperor's lord?
"The gentlemen have no objections, so Li Mou has a letter to His Majesty. Everything is at the discretion of His Majesty! ”
The generals walked out of Li Jing's Chinese army, and Niu Jinda found that Lao Cheng didn't say a word. This is a bit strange, according to Lao Cheng's temperament, he will stir up three points if he ignores it. He didn't say a word today, and his soldiers were the closest to the Koreans. If you catch up now, you will definitely be able to catch up with Gao Huizhen and lead 20,000 Goryeo soldiers.
If you don't go to catch the military merits you have gotten, it is seriously not in line with Lao Cheng's character. Could it be that he wants to send troops privately? This is a big taboo, and as an old friend, you need to persuade you. The battle is almost over, and it will soon be a day of happiness. Don't dare to plant on such a thing!
Back in the army, Lao Niu found a jar of good wine and put it under his armpit and entered Lao Cheng's military tent. Old friends for many years, they are familiar with each other's personalities to the point where they can't be more familiar.
"Are you afraid that I will send troops without permission?" Seeing Lao Niu coming in, Lao Cheng guessed the intention.
"Hmm!" Lao Niu snorted, sat down in front of the desk, and casually slapped the sealing mud on the wine jar.
Lao Cheng asked his soldiers to get more than a dozen cans of canned beef, plus a plate of fried soybeans was the appetizer of the brothers. As soon as the dagger pierced the beef can, the tin box was cut.
The old cow drained the bowl of wine, pricked a piece of beef tendon meat and munched it in his mouth. It seems that he is not here to persuade Lao Cheng, but to drink specially.
"Hey......! The old man has not yet had the mind to send troops, and after so many years of fighting, it is the first time that he has the mind that his military merits are not strong. Do you think you're old? Although he is an old man, Lao Cheng is not yet forty years old this year. Lao Cheng never thought of this word. I don't know what's going on today, but I suddenly said this word.
Lao Niu swallowed the beef in one bite, looked at Lao Cheng in astonishment, and didn't know what happened to his old friend.
"Old Niu, you said that we have been licking blood from the knife for so many years. Is it bravery? Lao Cheng didn't eat meat and took a sip, and said quietly.
Niu Jinda was a little confused, he swore that since he met Cheng Yanjin, he had never seen Lao Cheng like this.
"Pick up bravery, there are not many people in my old Chengfu. It is not once or twice to charge into battle on the battle array, but today I am really scared.
Picking up martial arts Luo Yi is amazing! Luo Cheng is among our brothers, and he is a little bit of a plucker. The one who can compare with him is afraid that it is Second Brother Qin. He said back then that his martial arts were less than half of his father's. Think about what kind of person they are!
is such a person, the eldest grandson Wuji went to Zhuozhou. The Luo family, which had been operating in Zhuozhou for decades, disappeared in an instant. Luo Yi is such a powerful person, he didn't even leave a whole corpse.
Today, the old man knows that in the face of wisdom, personal bravery is not bullshit. After this battle, Datang will enter a period of stability. The empire needs to lick the wounds of the war, and His Majesty will not use troops on a large scale until the country is refilled. When we return to Chang'an, I'm afraid we will have to face a group of old foxes like Changsun Wuji.
You and my brother were all killed in the sea of swords and blood, and with a murderous aura, they are not afraid of those sour dings. But our children and grandchildren, I'm afraid it won't work.
The martial arts of my family's ugly cow are not much comparable among my peers. Your family has also experienced several years in the army, and they are all brave and invincible generals. But in the future, they will have to face those civil officials, and they will only be played to death when it comes to playing with their brains. Ay......! Killing a lifetime of family business can't bless future generations, hey......! ”
Lao Cheng sighed as he spoke, and drained a large bowl of wine without eating two bites.
"Huh! Your old boy is just uncomfortable with himself, and our family is a gatekeeper. If we ask those sour people to teach their children, even if we pull down our faces, those sour children may not necessarily teach our children well. If you can't compare with the family in terms of learning, it will gradually decline, and that's what you're worried about! ”
Lao Cheng didn't speak, but nodded.
"Have you forgotten that there is a clever boy in our gate? I can't control what your ugly cow is, my family sees the tiger return to Chang'an this time, and the old man will send him to Lishan Academy. Wen Daya's knowledge was praised by both the Emperor and His Majesty. I heard that His Majesty intended to let the former prince and young master Li Gang and Li Wenji also go to Lishan Academy to teach.
Hey! The sours refuse to teach, so we can't do anything about them? After Lao Niu knew Lao Cheng's worries, he laughed like a wind.
Lao Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed too. That black-hearted kid charges a lot of tuition, but as long as he can teach the child well, the money is nothing.
