Chapter 931: Oolong Bureau
Chapter 936
The Great War broke out on the day of the sting.
At that time, whether it was Li Xingzai or Nohara Huo, they were actually not fully prepared. And the fact that the war came so quickly was also unexpected by both sides.
Because this in itself is an oolong**.
Li Xingzai had a heavy army under Luofeng City, thinking that he would use the method of encircling the point to send reinforcements to eliminate as much of the fighting force of the Rong clan as possible.
Both sides sent spies to patrol the vicinity of Luofeng City, and on this day, the patrol forces of both sides met in the field. War is inevitable, and the defeat of the Jiangnan soldiers is also a matter of course.
The first battle was defeated, and the remnants of the defeated army fled back to Fengcheng in a panic, and shouted anxiously before entering the city: "The Rong clan is coming, the Rong tribe is coming......
Faced with the situation in front of him, Li Xingya's nerves were naturally tense, and he kept an eye on the enemy's movements. If the enemy makes any abnormal moves, it must be reported quickly.
The guards of Luofeng City did not dare to be negligent, and immediately reported to Li Xingzai.
Li Xingzai was taken aback when he found out, the Rong clan came over so quickly, and Yeyuanhuo's temperament was so anxious.
But the enemy has already attacked, and Li Xingya can't help but react. The defensive line along the river was mobilized, and the defensive posture was changed to an offensive posture.
Nohara Fire was also staring at Li Xingya's movements, and the front line reported that Li Xingya's troops and horses were mobilized, and he was also shocked when he got the news.
I'm not ready, you're going to go to war, is Li Xingya so belligerent.
Both sides had the same mentality, and Nohara immediately mobilized troops and horses accordingly.
When Li Xingzai saw it, sure enough, the battle report on the front line was true, and the field fire was about to go to war.
At about the same time, the two sides issued a "Letter of Seeking Thieves" to the world, calling on the princes of the world to unite with themselves.
Before the situation is clear, everyone does not dare to take sides easily. However, when the news spread, all the princes, including Cheng Dalei, were taken aback.
Everyone knew that war would inevitably break out, but no one expected it to come so quickly. Li Xingya and Nohara Huo can't wait like this, and what have they prepared for this war?
In fact, whether it was Nohara Fire or Li Xingya, they were actually not ready.
When the war broke out, no one remembers why it started.
A steady stream of war reports reached Liangzhou, and Cheng Dalei divided them into categories to analyze the situation in Jiangnan and Jiangbei. It was already a battle with no winner, and once the war began, the situation became even more complicated. Everyone, including Cheng Dalei, can't see through it at all now.
Of course, the burden is not on Cheng Dalei's shoulders, and Cheng Dalei doesn't have to be too anxious. The people who are really anxious now are Li Xingya and Nohara Huo.
However, Cheng Dalei did not do nothing. When the war broke out, Cheng Dalei reacted immediately.
Sent troops to Sanshui Pass, and took Runan City within ten days, and Hewei Lian, the Rong guard of Runan City, was cut off by Cheng Dalei himself.
After nesting in Liangzhou for so long, Cheng Dalei finally took the first step bravely. After that, there was no movement, according to the troops, racing against time to build the grain road, so that the grain and grass of Liangzhou could arrive in Runan City within three days.
However, Cheng Dalei's actions did pour cold water on the war that was in full swing along the river, and eased the rhythm of the war a little. Li Xingya also had a good time to prepare for the strong soldiers who were fighting the wild fire.
Li Xingya can be said to be anxious now. He is sitting in Yangzhou City, and there are constant battle reports from the front line, which is not good news. The Jiangnan army fought against the Rong people, not to mention ten battles and ten defeats, after all, it was more losses and fewer victories.
If this trend continues, he has no qualifications to wrestle with Nohara Fire at all, and he will definitely lose in the end.
The civil and military generals of Yangzhou City gathered together to discuss the current battle situation. The situation was extremely unfavorable for Li Xingzai, and the Rong people continued to advance, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the battle of crossing the river would be launched.
With the danger of the river, it seems that it can't stop the strong soldiers of the Rong clan. If you are really beaten to Jiangnan by them, what will you do to resist.
Fortunately, Cheng Dalei was finally willing to send troops at this time. The Rong clan had to allocate a part of their forces to guard against the northwest, so as not to make Cheng Dalei's head go crazy and stab him in the back when the front line was lively.
This eased the tension in Jiangnan, but far water could not quench the thirst of the near, and many problems still had to be solved by Li Xingya himself. Everyone got together to discuss, but they couldn't come up with a practical way.
Now Li Xingzai misses Chu Yunsheng very much, Chu Yunsheng can make good decisions, and he must have his way in the face of such a situation.
It's a pity that Chu Yunsheng has already died during the attack on Yangzhou City, and there is no shortage of strategists around Li Xingzai, but there is still a certain gap between him and Chu Yunsheng.
Many things have to be done by Li Xingzai himself.
After careful consideration, Li Xingzai made an unbelievable decision: he was ready to drive the expedition in person and lead his troops across the river.
Such a decision was naturally unanimously opposed by everyone, and everyone gathered together in the hope of changing Li Xingya's decision.
"Your Majesty, this must not be done. Qi Jiguang took the lead in saying: "The Rong clan is known as unparalleled in the field, after all, it is not a lie. To deal with the Rong cavalry, we can only defend according to the danger, consuming their food, grass and men. Among the ministers, we even want to introduce them to the south of the Yangtze River, and take advantage of the fact that the Rong people are not connected to water warfare to defeat them. ”
Everyone, every word you say to me, it probably means the same thing. When everyone finished speaking, Li Xingzai waved his hand and suppressed the gossip voice.
I have heard your words, and I understand them. Li Xingzai said: "But according to the city, the princes of the northern land did not do this, but what was the result? In less than a year, the northern land was swept away by the Rong clan. The mistakes they made, we must not repeat. ”
"But it was really a field battle, and our army had no chance of winning. "Song tour channel.
Li Xingzai did not deny this, and said, "Everyone, what are we fighting in this battle?"
Everyone was silent, and their eyes looked at Li Xingzai.
Li Xingzai continued: "I am the descendants of the Li family, and you are the subjects of the empire. Now half of the empire has fallen, and the people of the north are living in dire straits. In this battle, what we want is not not to lose, but to win. The Rong clan must be completely defeated and the face of the empire must be regained. ”
"Everyone in the north is looking forward to us fighting, the Rong clan is known as a million soldiers and horses, and how many of them are the empire's troops?" Li Xingzai said slowly: "This battle is not the gain or loss of one city or one place, we are fighting for the hearts of the people." So we can't be passive, we have to be proactive. As long as there is a victory, the princes of the world can be recognised, and when the time comes, the Rong people will not have to worry. ”
This method Li Xingya was indeed well thought out, and it was not decided by a pat on the head. For example, people like Qi Jiguang may not agree with Li Xingzai's opinion, but Li Xingzai insists on going his own way, and everyone has to let it go.
