"Big victory! Big victory!" A young man who looked to be in his twenties rushed into the tent with excitement. However, when he saw the two calm people above him, his excited voice suddenly sounded like he had stopped a car.
"How can you be so frizzy and frizzy?" Li Ying snorted with some displeasure, in a tone of lecturing her son.
Of course, this is actually the case, because the person who rushed into the tent at this time was indeed his son, his third son Li Mingtong.
Li Ying's whole family obviously did such a big thing as a rebellion. After all, if it failed, you would still die if you didn't do anything.
Of course, several of Li Ying's sons also participated, but except for the third son, Li Mingtong, who followed him, the other sons were either allocating grain and grass in the rear territory, or they were still in the large army behind.
.
Li Mingdong looked at his father a little strangely. According to his understanding, his father would never be as calm as he is now when facing such a great victory.
He naturally knew how much his father loved fighting. The imperial court did not allow his father to lead the army. In the past ten years, the only ones Li Ying could fight were the bandits in his territory.
There were only a few hundred bandit troops, and Li Ying personally led the regular troops to encircle and suppress them, just to have a good time.
Li Mingdong clearly remembered that he had wiped out hundreds of bandits. His father was so happy that he couldn't sleep for several days, as if he had made a huge contribution.
This time, he was worried that his father would get excited about this big victory, but he didn't expect to see such a scene.
Dad was extremely calm and didn't say anything, and even taught him a lesson.
"Humph, it's just a win. Is it worth making such a fuss about?" Li Ying really started to teach Li Mingtong a lesson.
Li Mingtong looked confused. What do you mean by winning only one game? Today's battle is an epic victory that can be written into the annals of history, right? There are few battles in the entire history book that can compare with today's stop.
great victory in the battle.
"What we defeated this time was just the enemy's vanguard. Don't forget that there are hundreds of thousands of troops behind us who are gathering here." Li Ying continued.
"Yes...yes father." Li Mingtong's face twitched and he lowered his head.
"My dear son-in-law, do you think what I said is right?" When she turned to Lin Dun next to her, Li Ying, who had just taught her son a lesson but still looked serious, changed her face to a kind one and even seemed to have a flattering attitude. Look below.
The corners of Li Mingtong's mouth couldn't help but twitch again.
"Hmm... By the way, this can be regarded as my contribution, right?" Linton next to him suddenly asked at this time.
"Uh... of course, my dear son-in-law. All of this is due to my wise son-in-law, you have made perfect plans and commanded well." Li Ying did think so. Although Linton spent the entire battle on the hillside watching the scenery,
It didn't end at all, but wasn't it Linton who calculated this fighter plane? The commander-in-chief, of course, was also Linton, but he didn't do anything.
"Well, can I turn the tide this time?" Linton asked again.
"Of course, if this wasn't a good son-in-law, I would have been buried long ago." Li Ying said immediately.
"Oh oh oh, so that's it? That's right. If you know how to speak, just say more." Linton nodded and said, "Yes, I am so awesome. People in the world refer to me as the one who has the most perfect strategy."
Yes, Linton had already recognized the fact and started to mess things up. Although it was different from what he expected to turn the tide, the guy next to him also said that turning the tide was not turning the tide. Anyway, he was turning the tide, right.
"That's what a good son-in-law said." Li Ying here nodded wildly. At this time, when he faced Linton, he didn't have the attitude of an old father-in-law facing his son-in-law. Linton was simply his idol, right? He had been there since he was a child.
I like to fight, and what I admire the most are those who are invincible in battles.
Although I have met many generals who are good at fighting before, the gap between them and Linton is not even one or two points.
Now in Li Ying's eyes, Linton has become a god. Although he admired Linton before, it was mostly because of Linton's status as the divine son of Cangqing Mountain. But now, he even wants to worship Linton.
As a teacher.
The reason why Li Ying is so calm now is one of the manifestations that deified Linton. After all, in the eyes of this military god, an epic victory of this level is probably just an appetizer. There are dozens more to come.
As for Wan's army, Li Ying felt that the military god had definitely figured out how to prepare this staple meal.
"How much did we lose this time?" At this time, Li Ying also asked Li Mingdong about the situation of this battle.
"Report to my father, our army lost about 3,500 people this time." Li Mingtong replied. There were only 10,000 troops in total, and 3,500 died. The loss was actually quite large. But after all, they were the ones who won in the end.
"Where's the other side?" Li Ying continued to ask.
"The casualties of the enemy cannot be counted for the time being, but it is estimated to be at least 60,000 to 70,000. We have captured 15,000 prisoners here." Li Mingdong continued to report, mainly because many enemy soldiers were washed away by the river. It was really...
There was no way to count the actual number of people. They could only estimate based on the number of people who had run away before.
"So, the enemy army still has at least 50,000 to 60,000 troops?" Li Ying said with a frown.
"Indeed." Li Mingdong nodded. If the general army was defeated like this, there would definitely not be that many left. After all, a large number of soldiers would break up and flee without a trace, and it would be impossible to organize them.
But the problem is that the imperial army they are facing now is different. There are hundreds of thousands of troops behind them on their way here. Therefore, it is very likely that their defeated troops will not escape without a trace. After all,
If you run away, you are considered a deserter. So it is very likely that they will still gather together.
"Then...will they fight back?" Li Ying said suddenly.
Yes, there are actually more than 6,000 troops left on our side, with 15,000 prisoners. The enemy has 50,000 to 60,000 soldiers left. It is indeed possible for them to directly counterattack.
"Most likely, it won't happen." Li Ying actually asked Linton, but Linton didn't mean to answer at all. How could he know this? But seeing that Linton didn't answer, here
Li Mingtong thought his father was asking him, so he tried to answer.
"Oh, why?" Li Ying turned to Li Mingdong and asked.
"If the main general on the opposite side is still Wang Clan, I think the other side may still counterattack. But now that Wang Clan has been captured alive by us, his deputy general Jiang Hongchou is not someone who uses troops like this." Li Mingdong said.
"Well..." Li Ying nodded in agreement, and then suddenly asked, "What about the Wang Clan?"
