It took Linton a lot of time to find the military camp of King Cheng Li Ying, because at this time, this guy was no longer at his original location.
Linton naturally took the people who came to Cangqing Mountain to report back, but what he saw after returning was corpses all over the place and an almost unrecognizable camp that was destroyed.
Previously, Li Ying sent someone to ask for help immediately after losing the first game. However, as soon as this person sent the letter, it seemed that Li Ying had already lost the second game.
When Linton found Li Ying again, his gray-faced eyes seemed to have lost a little sparkle.
Yes, Li Ying's troops are really miserable at this time. They are all soldiers sitting directly on the ground. It is obvious that the current camp does not even have enough tents. The soldiers, including the injured soldiers, are lying in the open air, obviously.
I just experienced an extremely disastrous failure.
"Son-in-law!" Seeing Linton, Prince Cheng Li Ying suddenly jumped up from the ground, and there seemed to be a little light in her eyes again.
"Huh?" Linton looked at Li Ying in confusion. When did he become the other party's son-in-law? Tianfeng Kingdom called him their son-in-law, and he barely acknowledged it. Where did he get the identity of the prince's son-in-law?
It can’t be Li Xiaoyue.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo for of loop thing..." Li Ying actually started crying before Linton could reply. This inexplicable situation made Lin Dun confused. Was this because he was beaten or because he was wronged?
There was just a man who looked like he was in his forties holding him crying. He didn't think it was embarrassing, but even Linton felt disgusted.
"You... don't get excited first." Linton frowned and said, "Come on, let's talk about the situation now."
Li Ying probably also realized that crying for such a big man was not good-looking, so he quickly calmed down. With the cooperation of him and a few people around him, Linton probably also knew what happened in the past two days.
.
Not to mention that Li Ying was really obedient, or it was indeed Linton who gave him confidence. In short, that day Linton said he would fight head-on, and Li Ying actually raised his troops and went head-on.
He was already gathering troops here, but before the troops were assembled, he listened to Linton's advice and set off that day with the leading troops of 70,000 people.
The Heyang Road that the army took was the main road leading directly to the capital. It was exactly as Linton warned, and it was completely unobstructed and headed straight up A.
Naturally, it was impossible for the capital to not respond. Although it was said that the imperial court had more than 600,000 troops before, it was naturally impossible to summon so many troops at once in a short period of time.
The standing army near the capital could muster about hundreds of thousands at once. So the imperial court immediately ordered troops, and the same vanguard directly dispatched an army of 150,000, and headed towards King Cheng's troops.
The two sides met head-on in a plain called Qiumiao, and a direct battle broke out.
The battle lasted from noon to evening, and the result was that Li Ying was severely defeated and was beaten miserably.
According to simple statistics, the imperial troops on the opposite side suffered losses of about six to seven thousand, and Li Ying's troops here suffered losses of about thirty thousand. The total number of vanguard troops was only seventy thousand, and this loss was almost half.
Can Li Ying not be anxious? He is really panicked.
So as soon as he retreated, he immediately asked his men to go to Cangqing Mountain to find Linton. His chances of winning were all on Linton's side. Without Linton's support, he wouldn't have dared to rebel in the first place, right. Now it's all over
The fight started, and the Linton man suddenly didn't know where to go. Of course he was anxious to death.
In this battle on the plains, Li Ying's side had actually been defeated a long time ago. In fact, if they had retreated earlier, the losses would not have been so great.
But Li Ying had been insisting before. In fact, he was waiting for Linton. He felt that since Linton had already made an agreement, he would definitely come out suddenly at the critical moment to help him turn defeat into victory.
As a result, he waited until the troops could no longer hold on and began to collapse, but he had not waited for Linton to appear. So when he saw Linton today, he was really a little aggrieved.
Of course, Linton didn't know this at all. When the two sides were fighting here, Linton was still listening to the old monks chanting sutras at Rihua Temple.
Of course, this is only the first defeat.
Just after Li Yinggang sent people to Cangqing Mountain to find people, the camp they had just set up immediately received a second wave of attacks.
The general on the opposite side led 10,000 cavalry, and took advantage of Li Ying's side who had just retreated to gain a foothold, and launched an attack that night.
Li Ying's troops were almost completely unprepared. They were defeated by the opponent with one blow and the camp was blown up on the spot. The soldiers had just suffered a defeat and had no morale at all. They were defeated with almost no resistance.
Before Li Ying could even react to what was going on, she was protected by her subordinates and fled back. When she came to her senses, she was probably in this situation now.
When Linton arrived, Li Ying's men had just collected their remnants. At present, there were only about 15,000 people left in the 70,000-strong army, and the losses on the opposite side were almost zero, especially in the night attack last night, which was almost zero.
The loss defeated their 25,000 troops.
After hearing this, Linton suddenly understood why Li Ying, a grown man, was beaten so hard that he was crying. Not to mention the miserable defeat, he was really aggrieved. After all, wasn't he just following Linton's orders? He was really
I went head-on, without any doubts, and ended up with two big defeats. How can I not feel aggrieved?
"Ahem, cough...what about this..." To be honest, this incident made Linton a little embarrassed. Now that he thought about it, didn't he go back to Cangqing Mountain to meet such a prince? But he suddenly met Japan.
Regarding the matter at Huasi, Linton was directly lured away by the valuables.
So now think about what happened to the prince? Linton simply forgot about him.
"Don't worry, don't worry, this is part of the plan." Linton quickly patted Li Ying on the shoulder and said, "Am I here to turn the tide?"
"So, we can still win, right?" Li Ying asked quickly.
"What does it mean to still win? I said this is part of the plan. Everything is in my plan, you know? We have an advantage now," Linton said.
"Uh..." After Linton said this, the people around him were obviously looking at him with distrust, as if they were trying to fool someone.
"No, what do you mean by those looks?" Linton looked at the generals around him, then looked at Li Ying again, "Do you believe me?"
"This..." Li Ying really hesitated.
"Hey, now if you don't believe me, who can I believe? Think about it carefully, you are rebelling, right? Do you think you can survive if you give up or surrender now?" Linton said.
These words woke up Li Ying. It was true that he had no way out, so he nodded and said: "I believe it!"
