Chapter 444 Gao Zhang after the war (second update)
Until that time, the wooden city defenses originally made of various vehicles were finally pushed away by those ambitious soldiers.
Then they rushed into the stream a dozen steps away from the wooden fortress, and after wading through the moat that could be flooded up to their knees, they rushed towards the Zhu family's bandits who had begun to scatter.
And the person rushing at the front is none other than Tong Wolong from the Wolong and Phoenix combination, ah no... Tong Zhisheng.
Can Tong Zhisheng, who often boasts of his unstoppable courage, be able to use no force in Bianliang, Tokyo, except drinking, eating meat, boxing, and practicing swords, guns, and sticks with Lu Qian and others?
At this moment, he really looked like a god of death. He was covered in heavy armor. Even if he was just standing there, he was not much shorter than an ordinary soldier on horseback.
After he waded through the stream, the leg in his leg that was easy to shovel used as a stick and began to sweep across it.
For a few feet, there was no living thing that could stand around him, even if it weren't for the armored man who followed Tong Zhisheng not far behind.
They were all so frightened that their faces turned red, wishing that their parents would give them two extra legs.
Stay away from that vulgar warrior who doesn't care about the life and death of his friendly troops.
Gao Zhang silently watched where Tong Zhisheng went and whether there would be nothing but red. He couldn't help but shake his head consciously.
Forget it, just be happy. Anyway, it started from the moment General Liu Fa led the three thousand cavalry.
The balance of victory has fallen directly at his feet, and there will be no chance of Zhu Meng making a comeback.
Otherwise, facing the pursuit of the 3,000 Forbidden Army cavalry who were gathering their strength, it would be very difficult for the 30,000 remaining soldiers to retreat to Suzhou.
It would be fine if they surrendered simply and neatly, but if the remaining soldiers were defeated and scattered in the wild...
Gao Zhang couldn't help but frown. The soldiers there, whether they were officers or soldiers, were not living people, let alone a very good labor force.
What's more, is it a foreign war? If necessary, can we achieve great achievements and kill them all? Of course there is no such necessary requirement.
#####
Liu Fa held the reins with one leg, and held the big gun in his leg with the other. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance. At this moment, the Zhu family rebels who were so murderous before were now scattered like scattered sand.
The three thousand cavalrymen under his command, in accordance with the previous military order, were divided into teams of a hundred people and began to cut and cut, preventing the enemy from gathering into a group and forming an effective resistance.
To Liu Fa's regret, the huge carriage was parked alone on the battlefield at this moment.
King Wu's chariot, which was mainly decorated with yellow silk and satin, was no longer there, and not even one of the six strong horses that pulled the chariot was left.
The weapon next to him was still dripping with blood, and Liu Qi, who was panting, couldn't help but shook his head with regret.
"I didn't expect that red thief to escape very quickly. General, let the general go after him."
Liu Fa raised his head, looked at the generals who were looking at him with eager eyes and were about to speak, and saw a knight carrying a flag galloping towards him in the distance.
Soon, the knight leading the charge saddled his east horse, saluted Liu Fa respectfully, and handed a letter to Liu Fa.
When he opened the leg order and browsed it carefully, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
Then he raised his head and looked towards the distance. At this moment, Gao Zhang was no longer on the high platform.
"General, general?..."
"Liu Qi, I will lead five hundred brothers to pursue southward along the main road. The pursuit must not exceed ten miles. Anyone who dares to disobey the order will be killed!"
"Ah?" Liu Qi just showed his face full of joy when he was put on the spot by a few words.
"I'm sorry to go." Liu Fa's face darkened, and his eyes widened in an imposing manner.
Liu Qi felt a chill in his heart. After saluting Liu Fa respectfully, he ordered his troops and began to pursue southward along the main road.
A group of Forbidden Army generals, although they could not see the leg order from the prodigy champion.
But it was already clear that the reason why General Liu Fa made such an order was probably inseparable from the prodigy champion's leg order.
But the question is, Liu Fa, the Western Army warrior who has never had a harmonious relationship with his superiors, seems to really think that what the wrong side says makes sense, that would be interesting...
However, Liu Fa had no intention of explaining to the group of General Zibu Dong, and urged the group of vulgar warriors to quickly gather the troops and prepare to clean up the battlefield where there was no longer any sound of fighting.
Liu Fa turned the horse's head and the horse began to gallop in the direction of Gao Zhang.
The leg-sealing order given to the prodigy champion was written very clearly.
Then tell him that Mr. Liu pursued him too much. There may be a chance to capture Zhu Meng, but there is a big chance that the wrong party can escape.
The point is that the remnants of the defeated soldiers who fled in all directions may very well cause great harm to the people in the villages in Jiangnan during the Song Dynasty.
Therefore, Gao Zhang felt that all the soldiers and horses under Zhu Meng's command had been maimed, and even his king of Wu had fled.
Even if he escaped back to Suzhou, he would definitely have the courage to gather the remaining defeated soldiers and huddle outside the city of Suzhou.
As a result, the imperial court's counter-rebellion forces would have to deal with the Zhu rebels outside Suzhou City.
Rather than suppressing Zhu's rebellion, the people in the entire Jiangnan region would not suffer disaster.
#####
Such a letter was written in a clear and logical manner, and every word was a reference to whether or not the people of Jiangnan were considering it.
This greatly shocked Liu Fawai, who came from a humble background and only relied on his military exploits to reach the position of Mingyue.
He really didn't expect that the eleven or twelve-year-old Xuanfu envoy would actually have such compassion and consideration for the people when considering the problem.
No, as an official of the Song Dynasty, I am so kind-hearted and weak-limbed. How can I get rid of my legs when I take charge of the government in the next month?
Even if Taiwei Gao Qiu were to be my father, I would be so favored by the official family that I would not be able to accomplish anything...
Liu Fa drove his horse and rushed towards that direction. Yuanji saw not far away at this moment, the little figure in purple robe, pointing back and forth over there.
And the people around him were bandaging the wounds of the injured patients who were brought over.
As for the fallen soldiers, the handsome young man who was only twelve years old came personally to tidy up the clothes and appearance of the fallen soldiers.
And I very much beg to record the surname and place of origin of every fallen soldier, so that I can be frightened by the locusts coming from the east.
At this moment, there were more and more soldiers watching nearby, but no one dared or wanted to disturb the actions of the famous prodigy champion in the east.
At this moment, whether it was the state soldiers and local soldiers from the various prefectures, the tens of thousands of soldiers accompanying the Forbidden Army from the southeast, or the Forbidden Army's iron cavalry who came with Liu Fa at starry night for reinforcements.
They all watched that scene in silence but with emotion.
