426. Avenge my father
Li Yuanba wants to leave, no one can stop him, but it is easy to stop Yan Zongbi.
"Death to those who stand in my way!"
Seeing that Li Yuanba got on the boat, Wanyan Zongbi desperately got rid of Mu Guiying's entanglement, and rushed towards the turtle boat on the shore like crazy.
"I'm afraid you're dead, right? On the territory of my Han Dynasty, how can you come and go freely! Seeing Wan Yan Zongbi rushing over desperately, Di Qing waved a cooked copper stick to block Wan Yan Zongbi's way.
The axes and sticks intersected, and there was a violent sound of gold and iron.
It's just that before Yan Zongbi could react, Lu Wenlong behind him was already the first to catch up, and with a shake of his guns, he hit Yan Zongbi's back shoulder. Wei Chigong was the second to arrive, swept with the double whip in his hand, and hit Yan Zongbi in the back fiercely, spitting blood from his mouth when he landed, staggering forward, and staggering.
"Look at the guns!"
Zhao Yunma was fast, and he grabbed the front of Jiang Song and Yuwen Chengdu, followed by Wei Chigong's double whip, and rushed to finish Yan Zongbi's chest is shot.
The shaky Wanyan Zongbi, that is, the fourth prince of the Jin Kingdom, who was named the "Golden Vulture Technique" in later generations, was powerless to dodge at this moment, and was mercilessly pierced through the chest by Zhao Yun's spear.
"See who can take this head?"
With a coquettish sound, Mu Guiying flew into the fire and rushed to the front of the Golden Vulture, and the Yan Ling knife slashed the neck of the Golden Vulture with a cold light.
At the same time as Mu Guiying's big knife was slashed, Yuwen Chengdu and Jiang Song were killed almost at the same time. But seeing that the imperial concubine made a move to grab someone's head, she still subconsciously slowed down her shot, how could a good man compete with a woman, let alone the emperor's woman?
"Poof". Blood spurted out of the cavity of the Golden Vulture and a head flew in the air; was lightly soothed by Mu Guiying. In the pocket, it hangs under the horse's neck.
Just when the generals were scrambling for heads. Meng Hui had already led his troops to cut off the rear routes of the other Tang troops on the shore. The 5,000 Tang troops who followed Li Shimin ashore, except for Li Shimin, Li Yuanba and more than 100 elite henchmen, all the others came and went, including Liang Shitai, Wanyan Zongbi, and Li Zicheng, all of them were surrounded or killed.
"Some of the thief ships still have flammable materials on their hulls, and rockets are fired!"
While commanding his soldiers to surround the Tang army on the shore, Meng Heng ordered the crossbowmen to shoot rockets at the retreating Tang army turtle boats, and a burst of rain burst into flames, setting fire to five more turtle boats when they landed. The Tang army on the ship couldn't hold the smoke of the fire. They abandoned the boat and jumped into the river, but they just fell into the water, and they were immediately shot into hedgehogs by a more dense rain of arrows.
Under Yi Sunsin's command, the remaining ten turtle ships finally escaped the range of the Han army's crossbows, but there were only about fifty soldiers left on each ship. There were thirty turtle ships when they came, and there were still ten when they returned, and only five or six hundred of the nine thousand elites remained, and this fiasco made Li Shimin unforgettable.
"Liu Wei, you remember it for me. He will repay this revenge tenfold one day! Li Shimin stood at the stern of the boat and shouted loudly to the Han army and the Han Emperor on the shore.
Although the losses of the Han army were much greater than those of the Tang army, the entire Jinling naval division was burned to the ground, and two hundred warships were reduced to ashes. There were four or five thousand people who died under Li Yuanba's sledgehammer. Four or five thousand people were killed in the melee in the dock, and four or five thousand people were killed in hand-to-hand combat under the city of Jinling, with a total casualty of about 15,000 casualties.
But in Li Shimin's view. Definitely not a winner himself. In the two years of Goguryeo's expedition to the east and west, the men and horses under his command. The battle loss ratio has always been one to five or even one to ten, because of Li Yuanba's deposit. Always makes the fight easier. But this one-to-two battle loss ratio made Li Shimin feel heartbroken and unforgettable!
The Han warships had all been burned down, and they could only watch as ten Tang turtle ships sailed eastward.
Liu Wei stopped on the shore and replied to Li Shimin loudly: "Son, you also remember for me!" Today's hatred, my Han must keep it in mind, and in my lifetime, I will definitely set foot in Goguryeo and wipe your Tang Kingdom off the map! ”
The battle lasted for a day and a half of the night, and when Li Shimin retreated, it was already evening.
The slanting sun is like blood, reflecting the earth outside Jinling City, full of broken limbs, broken weapons, broken flags, everywhere.
The task of cleaning up the battlefield naturally fell to Meng Heng's army, and the other civil and military forces entered the Qianyang Palace to pay homage to the Son of Heaven.
Zhou Tai, who had survived the catastrophe, escorted Li Xiuning to the palace and knelt down to plead guilty: "Your Majesty, Weichen, as the chief general of the Jinling Water Division, neglected to take precautions, and guided Tang Kou to enter the country and attack the national capital, shaking the foundation of the country. A body of guilt, a hundred deaths can not be redeemed, please Your Majesty Xià to surrender the guilt! ”
Liu Weiduan sat on the dragon chair and said loudly: "Tang Kou has been planning for a long time to enter the sneak attack, and the fog has been thick for many days, and it is inevitable that a hundred secrets will be sparse!" If you are held accountable, it can't all be pressed on you alone, from the widow to the military department, Jinyi Guard, scout office and other departments, there are derelictions of duty, and you can't be held accountable alone! You captured the princess of the Tang Kingdom alive, the merits and demerits are offset, and you are exempted from responsibility, and I hope to learn a lesson in the future, and remember the truth that the military should not be relaxed! ”
Now is not the time to hold accountable, but to do a good job of pacifying and stabilizing the shape around Jinling. Do a good job of defensive arrangement, lest Li Tang repeat his old tricks and make another comeback; Of course, this is extremely unlikely, but it should not be left unguarded.
Hearing that the Son of Heaven forgave his mistakes, Zhou Taiji bowed his head, thanked the Holy Grace, and asked again after getting up: "I don't know what Your Majesty plans to do with this princess of the Tang Kingdom?" ”
"Li Tang invaded my Han capital for no reason, so he simply killed this demon girl and sent her head back to Tang Kingdom. Let Tang Kou know that it will take a heavy price to provoke my big man to deter the Fanbang barbarians! ”
Among the hundreds of civil and military officials, I don't know who took the lead in shouting first, and many people immediately echoed in unison.
"Death is death, the descendants of the Li family are not afraid of death!" Li Xiuning's face was unruly, although he was tied up with five flowers, his head was raised high.
Liu Bowen came out and said: "Your Majesty, Li Tang is rising, and it will become a big disaster in the future!" If you kill Princess Li Tang like this, it will inevitably be hasty, it is better to leave people for the time being, maybe there will be a use in the future. ”
Di Renjie, Lu Su, Zhao Yun, Meng Heng and other civil and military officers came out together in agreement: "What Liu Shangshu said is extremely true, it is useless to kill a female streamer, it is better to stay for the time being, maybe it will be of great use in the future!" ”
Standing next to Liu Wei, Mu Guiying, who was dressed in military uniform, also spoke for Li Xiuning: "Your Majesty, my Han is the upper state of the Heavenly Empire, and I can't do anything that makes people spurn!" Although Li Xiuning is the princess of Li Tang, after all, she is just a woman, it is useless to kill her, and it will provoke tongue, it is better to send her head for the time being, and he will deal with it in the future! ”
Liu Wei bowed slightly: "Then according to the performance of Concubine Ai and all Aiqing, temporarily put Li Xiuning in prison, and then make a decision when you go back!" ”
The golden gourd guard outside the gate of the Taiji Hall agreed, strode into the main hall with his head held high, escorted Li Xiuning, who was tied up with five flowers, out of the Taiji Palace, and went straight to the prison.
After Li Xiuning was escorted down, Liu Wei set his eyes on Mu Guiying: "This time, Concubine Ai can be on the bloody battlefield and live and die with me, I have decided to reward you with the title of general of the women, and you can enter the court to serve in the military in the future, but you must not interfere in national affairs!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, this is the wish of the concubine!" Mu Guiying was overjoyed and immediately bowed to thank her.
Liu Wei's eyes turned and fell on Jiang Song's body: "Tianshui Jiang Song, excellent martial arts, excellent marksmanship, and carrying Li Yuanba head-on, is the head of the Jinling guard this time." I have decided to reward you with the title of 'General Yangwei' and temporarily assume the position of Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards. Together with Weijiang and Wenyang, I will lead the guards of the Imperial Forest! ”
Jiang Song was surprised and delighted, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "The common people are just doing their best, how can they be so gracious?" I am willing to serve the work of dogs and horses for His Majesty, although the horse leather shroud, die without regrets! ”
Just as Jiang Song knelt down to thank him, the system in Liu Wei's mind rang out: "Ding Dong...... Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10 Jiang Song pleasure points, which has now produced a burst reaction, and the host can listen to the burst list at any time. ”
The hall was full of civil and military, and in full view of everyone, Liu Wei didn't talk nonsense, and directly withdrew from the system. Anyway, the vulnerability has been fixed, and there will be no more paralysis, and it is not too late to listen to the list after the retreat.
After canonizing Jiang Song, Di Qing and Jiang Wei, who had just surrendered, were also awarded the position of partial generals. As for the other former ministers, led by Meng Hui, including Zhao Yun, Yuwen Chengdu, Wei Chigong, Lu Wenlong, etc., all of them were properly rewarded. In any case, this is only a defensive battle, not a great victory, just a slight expression of divine grace, and there is no need for a big reward.
After the reward was completed, the soldiers who died on the battlefield had to be compensated, and Liu Wei ordered the family of the deceased to be given twice the usual consolation money as a reward. Lin Chong, Ling Cao, and Chen Yucheng were all posthumously titled and general, because their status and achievements did not meet the standard of entering the "Lingyun Pavilion", so they could only be buried on Zhongshan and commemorated by the "Loyal and Righteous Temple".
Lin Chong and Chen Yucheng have no queen, but Ling Cao has a son Ling Tong, who is six years old this year.
"Ling Tong greets His Majesty!"
About half an hour later, Ling Tong, who was six years old and dressed in plain clothes, came to the Taiji Hall and bowed to the Son of Heaven.
After the salute was completed, Ling Tong took the initiative to ask for a teacher: "Your Majesty...... His father died at the hands of Tang Kou, and he swore to avenge his father, and asked His Majesty to appoint a master for Ling Tong, Ling Tong was willing to study martial arts hard, and when he grew up, he vowed to avenge his father! ”
Just as Ling Tong was kneeling on the ground, Liu Wei instructed the system: "Give me a check about Ling Tong's peak ability values!" ”
"Ding-dong...... Peak Ling Tong - 85 commanders, 94 armed forces, 57 intelligence, and 39 political commands. ”
"Ding-dong...... Random quest trigger - Revenge for your father. If Ling Tong can slash Li Yuanba and complete this task, the host will receive a 'Historical Beauty Any Choice Card' with 1,000 resurrection points. ”
"Ding-dong...... Due to Ling Tong's young age, there are still undeveloped talents, if he is supported by a good teacher, he will have a high chance of breaking through the peak of his four-dimensional history in the future, increasing the basic values between 1 and 10 points, and inheriting attributes or acquiring two skills.
