Ning Lin kept nodding at this time. When Wei Xiao finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, everything depends on Your Highness."
"Don't worry, Commander Ning. In this battle, I will only be responsible for stabilizing the army. I will never interfere with General Huang's command of the battle. I will go wherever General Huang asks me to go, and my flag will definitely remain there. Absolutely
Morale will not be damaged, let alone escape due to changes in the situation." Wei Xiao promised.
"Your Highness... Everything depends on Your Highness." Ning Lin seemed to have something to say, but in the end he still didn't say it.
Wei Xiao didn't ask any more questions and just told Ning Lin to have a good rest.
Next, Wei Xiao simply discussed the specific arrangements with Huang Sen and others, and a day later, the army was dispatched.
Wei Xiao, as deputy commander, followed Huang Sen and moved forward with the Chinese army. Zhou Chengzhi, as the vanguard general, fought out first.
On the second day of the battle, the vanguard at the front fought two battles with the enemy. Some people were injured and lost, but they were able to push the enemy back. By the third day, hundreds of thousands of troops had surrounded the local camp.
We originally planned to repair all night, but on the first night, the enemy's cavalry came out to steal the camp, and they didn't have a good rest the whole night. However, before noon the next day, they had already set up their positions and started attacking the camp.
Although there are cannons here, over the years, many methods have been developed to deal with cannons. The simplest ones are to prepare wooden stakes and iron plates. Once a gap is made, someone will immediately drive the wooden stakes into the gap, or directly put the iron plates
By nailing it up, as long as the gap is blocked, the enemy's attack can be blocked with the help of geographical advantages.
Attacking Dai Guoying's stronghold is not like attacking a city, because Dai Guo released his cavalry early in the morning. While attacking, he also had to guard against cavalry attacks. Therefore, the amount of force invested was not too much, and it was not an easy task.
At the end of the day, there was indeed no effective attack. At night, the enemy cavalry came to harass again. When the harassment passed, several generals gathered together in frustration.
Zhou Chengzhi even cursed and said: "These Dai barbarians, why did they just pretend to be sheep and run away during the day? They were waiting for harassment at night. If this continues, everyone will not be able to rest for a few more days, and morale will definitely be low. The other side only needs to hold on for a few days."
, we will retreat if we don’t retreat.”
"Yesterday I was full of energy. Even if I come back today, my morale will definitely not be as high. I'm afraid this battle will not be easy to fight. I think it is better to take out all the cannons and fight to the end tomorrow. If it doesn't work tomorrow, just retreat." Li Guangxun seemed to
Somewhat discouraged.
"Xiao Wuxun is also a famous general. Although he is at a disadvantage now, he has indeed been prepared for a long time. It is just a battle to decide the outcome. If he loses, I will have no face when I go back to see Ning Shuai." Huang Sen said sadly.
Seeing that the three most important generals were like this, Wei Xiao suddenly felt something in his heart and said: "Generals, when I was reading books when I was a child, I read this paragraph. It is said that the current king of Chu State was a prince when he was still a prince.
Beating drums in front of the identity formation to boost morale..."
Huang Sen immediately said before he finished speaking: "Your Highness, you are talking about the battle that made Ning Shuai famous. This incident is indeed true. The King of Chu was also a great man, and he was supported by Qu Xiong, the famous commander of the Chu Kingdom.
, although that battle ultimately failed to achieve its goal because of Ning Shuai, but in the end when he returned to the capital of Chu King, he still relied on Qu Xiong to seize the throne, which prevented the Chu country from being destroyed. However, the current situation is different from that of King Chu back then.
The king of Chu is facing the situation. Although he is also attacking the camp, there will not be much danger. However, the enemy cavalry is currently roaming outside. Once our army loses, Dai's cavalry is galloping with lightning speed and the drummers are in front, so it is easy to be in danger."
"General Huang, I just want to ask, if I beat the drum to support the battle, will the morale of the army be boosted?" Wei Xiao asked.
"That's natural," Huang Sen said.
"In this case, don't ask General Huang. I don't care how General Huang fights, but this time, please don't stop General Huang. Although I am young and have not experienced many battles, I have studied military books since I was a child and know the art of war.
General." After Wei Xiao finished speaking, he stood up and bowed.
"Your Highness has defeated me. Your Highness is just as courageous as the King of Chu back then." Huang Sen immediately helped him up.
"His Highness is only in the age of wearing the crown, yet he dares to put himself in danger. If you ask me, the King of Chu was just a prince from a concubine. In the end, he became the King of Chu. His Second Highness was even worse in every aspect. The Crown Prince and His Highness the Fourth Highness were in the court.
Fighting back and forth, the two of them are nothing, not as good as the Second Highness..."
"Zhou Chengzhi!" Just when Zhou Chengzhi said this, Li Guangxun suddenly stopped him, seeming to remind him that this was inappropriate.
Huang Sen looked at several people at this time and sighed: "Ning Shuai is not involved in this matter, but as far as we are concerned, we really hope that His Highness can sit in that position one day."
Zhou Chengzhi said nothing more, but now even Huang Sen said so, which made Wei Xiao feel an indescribable feeling in his heart. At this moment, an ambition that he had never felt before spread out in an instant.
He had never thought about it, but now he started to think about it.
"General, needless to say, it's not long until dawn. It's better for everyone to take a good rest at this moment to prepare for tomorrow." After Wei Xiao said that, he left directly. He had to leave because if he didn't leave, he would control him.
I couldn't help but feel excited.
Just after he left, the remaining three people looked at each other. Huang Sen sighed and said, "Do you think we are good like this? Your Highness is indeed not bad."
"I don't know." Li Guangxun shook his head directly.
"Ning Shuai said that if he succeeds, it is also an option for us to assist him. Let's take it one step at a time." Zhou Chengzhi also sighed.
At noon the next day, the cart with the war drums was pushed to the front, but the whole army saw the deputy commander of the army and the flag of His Highness Wei Xiao, the Second Highness of the Wei Dynasty, was also there. Then they saw the Second Highness and got on the drum stand in person.
, began to beat the drum.
The soldiers had never seen a prince beating drums in front of the formation, and their morale was greatly boosted. At this time, Huang Sen also asked people to take out all their belongings. Suddenly, artillery fire burst into the sky, and the army rushed towards them.
In the afternoon, the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty had already rushed into the camp. However, the Dai army was not defeated. Instead, under the cover of the cavalry, they voluntarily abandoned the camp and then fought and retreated.
Huang Sen did not intend to continue the pursuit, but after occupying the camp, he immediately repaired it and used the camp as his stronghold.
"After His Highness finished the battle, when Wei Xiao rode into the camp again, all the soldiers shouted excitedly. At this moment, Wei Xiao felt as if he was no longer the one who was looked down upon in the palace.
He is no longer the prince that no one cares about. His future path should be to become a king and become a king who conquers the world.
At this moment, Wei Xiao completely strengthened his belief, and he did not want to go back to the past.
