The heavy armored cavalry was dispatched and caught up with Tang Emperor Li Qingcang, but they did not continue to penetrate deeper alone.

Three hundred thousand cavalrymen, running wildly for a whole day, were already deep into the hinterland.

And around Li Qingcang, there were a full 500,000 troops waiting in strict formation.

Not only that, when he learned that Li Cunxiao had arrived, Li Qingcang divided his army into three, marched and retreated from three different directions, and also sent state and county soldiers to attack the Wei army along the way.

If Li Cunxiao continues to take risks, he will easily be made dumplings by the enemy.

In this case, it is better to retreat bravely from the rapids and leave the green mountains without worrying about having no firewood.

After Li Qingcang learned that Li Cunxiao had retreated, he felt relieved.

To be honest, after being frightened by Wei Jun, he felt really unsure.

Wang Yunhe, one of the Nine Dragons generals, is already the most powerful among the Nine Dragons generals alive at present. Therefore, he has been closely protecting the emperor's safety.

After Li Cunxiao withdrew his troops, Wang Yunhe said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, General Wei leads hundreds of thousands of cavalry in a mighty formation. This can only mean one thing."

Speaking of which, there are no words.

Emperor Li Qingcang of the Tang Dynasty said: "You mean the border city has been breached?"

Wang Yunhe nodded, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Wei Jun's next move is to attack Huanglong. We must make arrangements as soon as possible."

Li Qingcang said: "I have ordered the towns in the south to rapidly expand their military resources and use all the strength of the country to recruit more than one million troops. After gathering the government troops from the important towns in the north, they will probably be able to compete with the Wei army.

"

Wang Yunhe said: "Your Majesty, as long as we camp step by step, our territory of the Tang Dynasty cannot be settled with the help of Wei State alone."

It doesn't matter if you lose the border town, as long as your confidence is not lost, there will still be a chance for everything.

As a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for many years, the most important thing about the current situation is to improve the morale of the whole country. Now, many people in the Tang State are not optimistic about the dispute between their country and the Wei State.

Do you think that the Wei State will definitely defeat the Tang State?

After all, the common people are always paying attention to the current situation. From various channels, they learned that on the front line, the Tang army had suffered several major defeats and had lost troops and generals.

border town.

Zhao Changqing stood at the top of the city and looked ahead. Behind him were the Five Tiger Generals and others.

They are all waiting for Li Cunxiao's arrival.

Li Cunxiao left and came back? He didn't bring back Li Qingcang's body.

This made Zhao Changqing somewhat disappointed.

But then I thought about it, this matter? It makes sense.

After Li Cunxiao arrived, he brought about the situation in nearby prefectures and counties.

Zhao Changqing read this information in detail and found it very valuable.

He said to all the soldiers: "Without further delay, Prime Minister Zhuge is formulating a strategy to divide the troops? After dividing the troops? At any cost? Attack the city and seize the land, and use war to support the war. We may be delayed in the Tang Dynasty for a long time."

Yue Fei said: "Your Majesty means to conquer Tang State step by step? Will this waste too much time?"

Zhao Changqing shook his head when he heard the sound and said: "The Tang State has a vast territory and a very long depth. If we follow up rashly like this, it will cause some trouble for us. Moreover, subsequent supplies, grain and grass transportation, etc. will all be problems, but

It is better to conduct a comprehensive strategy, first fight for the gains and losses of one city and one place, support war with war, and be prepared for a protracted war."

The soldiers understood what the emperor meant.

The plan formulated by Zhuge Liang was soon released.

Zhao Changqing personally ordered him to go down.

All the soldiers were very proactive.

The current total strength of the Wei army is about 2.4 million.

After several battles, the casualties of the Wei army were very limited.

Nowadays, in addition to the Five Tiger Generals, the Wei Dynasty also has the so-called Five Sons of Good Generals.

They are Zhao Changlin, Cao Cao, Huo Qubing, Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu.

Of course, this so-called five-son general was made up by people in the army, but it can be regarded as a trend.

After all, when they talked about these five generals, they were listed alongside the Five Tiger Generals.

In fact, the overall strength of the five tiger generals and the five good generals is not much different.

Regardless of the ability of individual soldiers to fight, or simply speaking of commanding large armies in battle, no one among the generals of the Wei army could defeat these ten men.

Considering that each of these ten people had a special skill, Zhuge Liang thought about it and decided that each of them would lead 200,000 troops and send troops from ten directions at the same time.

As for the emperor, he led 300,000 heavily armored cavalry and marched straight in.

The remaining 100,000 troops stayed in the border towns for defense.

Zhao Changqing was very satisfied with this plan. The Eleventh Army attacked across the board. This was the true meaning of multi-point flowering.

The night before leaving for the expedition, something unexpected happened to Zhao Changqing. Zhao Hongji actually refused to follow him instead of following Chen Qingzhi.

Zhao Changqing said sincerely: "Your father's route of sending troops will go through many battles. Following your father will give you the opportunity to make achievements. Chen Qing came here to attack cities and seize territory. The achievements he gained are nothing more than one city and one place.

Why do you insist on following him when you have gained and lost so much?"

Zhao Hongji bowed and said: "Father, I don't know. I want to learn some military skills from Uncle Qingzhi. After all, from the earliest days, I learned the art of war from Uncle Qingzhi. What if this happens to another person?

When people learn, it is inevitable that they will feel uncomfortable."

Zhao Changqing naturally heard that this was an excuse. He snorted coldly and said: "Chen Qingzhi's art of war was taught by his father. You can learn it from him, but you can't learn it from your father?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Hongji fell to his knees and said, "I beg you, Father, for your permission. Under your wings, Father, my son and I will never grow up."

Seeing his child's decisive look, Zhao Changqing was stunned.

He walked aimlessly on the top of the city and said to Zhao Hongji, who was kneeling on the ground behind him: "Would you like to take a walk with your father?"

This seems like a request.

Zhao Changqing is different from other emperors.

He really loves his children.

Don't want to see them get hurt at all.

Zhao Hongji was stunned for a moment.

He had never heard his father speak to him in such a tone, so he stood up and followed behind him.

Suddenly, Zhao Changqing stopped, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said as if murmuring: "Jil, do you know? The danger of this trip will be far more dangerous than any of our previous battles, father.

The emperor doesn’t have much time, and the entire human race probably doesn’t have much time, so the emperor took this approach!

The troops are divided into eleven routes, which looks mighty but is actually extremely dangerous. If a few routes collapse, the armies will be unable to communicate with each other and will be easily repelled by the enemy one by one. Therefore, everyone here basically belongs to the same group.

You will survive a narrow escape. Promise your father and follow him? At the very least, your father will be able to protect you."

Zhao Hongji was shocked by his father's words.

Judging from Father's tone, it seems that something unpredictable will happen in the future?

Or is there something wrong with my father's health?

Moreover, is it really that dangerous to divide the troops?

Then why did the emperor insist on dividing his troops?

Gradually, Zhao Hongji began to have random thoughts in his mind.

He simply could not imagine that if his father's health really went wrong, whether he and the prince alone would be able to maintain this world.

After all, surnames are unreliable.
