Xuanjizi thought for a while, nodded slightly and said: "Yes, the Holy Son's decision is right. Now Linhu City is useless, tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it."
"Rather than being led by Long Chen, it's better to give up on your own initiative. As long as the entire army is dispatched, Long Chen's mere 50,000 soldiers and horses will be sandwiched in the middle of a million troops, and he will have trouble flying!"
After listening to Bu Zining's words, Xuanjizi felt that it made sense and Gui Tai's decision was very correct.
Chunxiu doesn't understand these things, so she is very happy to be able to leave here.
"This shabby place is full of water. Go back to Jinling as soon as possible."
Xuanjizi said: "Pack your things and leave now!"
The ministers in the city were very happy and felt that they could finally leave.
Soon, the army marched out, leaving everyone who could walk and those who couldn't, leaving them to die.
.
Thirty miles west of Linhu City, a horse galloped into the woods. The empress was sitting in a big tent wearing golden armor, with Gongsun Linglong standing next to her.
Yingfeng walked in from the outside and said: "Your Majesty, all the armies in Linhu City have mobilized. It seems that they are going to abandon Linhu City and besiege King Wu with all their strength!"
After Long Chen captured Beiling City, the Empress immediately received the news and immediately led her army to wait for an opportunity.
According to the original plan, Long Chen intercepted and killed the reinforcements in the east. Once the ghosts sent out troops to rescue them, the empress took the opportunity to capture Linhu City.
Unexpectedly, things changed, and the ghosts actually gave up Linhu City and besieged Long Chen with all their strength.
"No, if this happens, the dead eunuch may not be able to escape."
Gongsun Linglong felt that the situation was not good.
The empress frowned and thought deeply, then said: "No, even if there is a flank attack from the east and west, Long Chen can retreat to Beiling City and there will be no danger."
"We can just capture Linhu City according to the original plan. We can't take risks."
The empress's first thought was to reinforce Long Chen, but after thinking about it carefully, it was wrong.
The purpose of Gui Fei is to besiege Long Chen. This is difficult to do. Long Chen Chen can escape completely.
If he led his troops there, it would lead to a melee between the two armies. Long Chen could only fight bravely, which would only cause disadvantages but no benefits.
Therefore, the wisest thing to do is to capture Linhu City according to the original plan.
"Send someone to investigate again to make sure he's gone."
"Especially inside the city, check to see if there are any ambushes."
The empress was worried about the deception, so she ostensibly withdrew from Linhu City, but actually ambushed her troops in the city.
When the army enters the city, the ghosts inside and outside should join forces to attack, and the empress may not be able to withstand it.
Yingfeng immediately sent people to investigate again.
The empress came out of the tent, ordered the army to set off, and marched slowly towards Linhu City.
.
30 miles east of Linhu City.
Long Chen stood on a high slope on horseback, looking at the approaching shadows in the east. He took out a monocular and could see reinforcements heading this way.
The clothes of these soldiers were in tatters, and almost no one wearing armor could be seen.
Those who can wear armor are elite soldiers, and it is impossible for ordinary soldiers to have armor.
"Is Qingren County's reserve troops so poor?"
Gan Zhen also saw it.
Long Chen said: "In the past, the elite soldiers of Nanliang were under the control of the five generals, and then the Forbidden Army, Nan Camp and the Black Armor Army were controlled by Li Chengdao."
"After several battles, the five generals are gone, and only the Forbidden Army, the South Camp and the Black Armored Army are left, totaling about 300,000."
"In recent years, Li Chengdao has deliberately trained his troops and has added more troops. Even Tong Yuan, Xue Ze and Liu Feibai have about 300,000 troops."
"So, there are actually not many elites in Nanliang. These are just
They are just ordinary people who make things up here and there."
Elite soldiers need combat experience. Only those who are trained on the battlefield are called elite soldiers. They either look good or they are elite soldiers.
Gan Zhen said: "That's why you dare to kill 500,000 with 50,000."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, our brothers have gone through the battle to destroy Xixia. They are all veterans who have fought hard battles. There is no problem if one is equal to ten!"
Gan Zhen turned around and smiled at the Nilin Army: "King Wu said that one of us should be worth ten!"
The counter-scale army behind him was naturally unconvinced and said: "We will fight one for a hundred!"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Have ambition and prepare to fight!"
The soldiers and horses are ready, and they can attack when the reinforcements approach.
At this moment, Han Ziping rode over and reported anxiously: "Sir, it's bad, there is a large army in the west, there are hundreds of thousands."
Long Chen frowned and asked: "How does it look?"
Han Ziping said: "It's very mixed and the team is very chaotic."
If the team is neat and orderly, then the ghosts are leading the elite to receive reinforcements.
The teams are mixed, that means they are all out in force, and the ghosts have given up on Linhu City?
"How can there be hundreds of thousands? Linhu City doesn't want it anymore?"
Gan Zhen asked strangely.
Han Ziping said: "I also find it strange. Did they abandon Linhu City just to besiege us?"
Gan Zhen sneered: "Siege us? Beiling City is in our hands, we can leave whenever we want!"
The two of them waited for Long Chen's instructions.
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "The ghost saw through my plan. He voluntarily abandoned Linhu City and chose to lead his troops to besiege us."
Gan Zhen asked: "Sir, should we fight?"
Long Chen sneered: "Fight, of course we will fight. If we don't fight, how can we prove that one is worth a hundred?" "Tell the brothers to kill for a while, then immediately head south and return from the south."
Han Ziping asked: "Sir, why don't we go to the north? The south is the territory of Zhongwu City."
Long Chen said: "The ghost has abandoned Linhu City and his target is us. He must have sent troops to the north to intercept us."
"If we go north, we will definitely be ambushed. Let's go south."
"Linhu City has given up. Liu Feibai of Zhongwucheng doesn't dare to do anything. If he dares to come out, I will kill him!"
There must be an ambush in the north, and Long Chen would not go north.
The reinforcements from the east gradually approached. Long Chen mounted his horse, holding a spear, and led the counter-scale army forward.
"Go, kill!"
Long Chen took the lead, but Meng Yidao was too tall for the horse to bear, so he followed on foot.
The reinforcements were on their way in a hurry, and suddenly people and horses rushed out from both sides, shouting: "King Wu of Great Zhou is here!"
Long Chen appeared and was the first to break into the crowd, killing everyone he saw. The counter-scale army behind him was as powerful as a bamboo, and the reinforcements were scattered to pieces.
Meng Yidao swung his giant blade, leaving broken limbs everywhere where it passed.
The Long family army rushed out from both sides, and the fighting teams fought individually. The musketeers took the lead in shooting, the shield soldiers struck forward, the spearmen thrust, the crossbowmen shot, and finally the swordsmen chopped.
This is the formation formulated by Long Chen and suitable for fighting in the hilly terrain of the Nanliang Mountains.
The reinforcements were leaderless and were killed in great confusion. They all turned around and fled eastward.
After killing for a while, Long Chen immediately ordered his troops to retreat and led them to the south.
west.
An escort hurriedly returned to the horse, and when he got to the ghost horse, he said: "Reporting to the Holy Son, I found the Long Family Army, and they are fighting with reinforcements!"
Feng Erniang looked ecstatic, and Xuanjizi said happily: "Holy Son, it's time for this guy to die."
