Chang Fanqi felt more and more that Hu Xiaotian was extremely sinister. He said this as if he had already conspired with him, but he also understood that it was useless to argue now. In Hu Xiaotian's hands, I was eaten to death.
There is no way.
Hu Xiaotian came to Qin Yangming, looked at Qin Yangming with a smile and said: "This is General Qin!"
Qin Yangming said angrily: "You are a despicable villain who can only use petty tricks. If you are a man, why don't you dare to confront the two armies openly and let me see who wins or loses on the battlefield!"
Hu Xiaotian chuckled and said: "You are upright? You, General Qin, gathered 70,000 soldiers and horses to deal with me, how dare you say that you are upright?"
Qin Yangming said: "Hu Xiaotian, you dare to invade our Dayong border and destroy the peace agreement between the two countries. Do you know what faith is? If you are so treacherous, how can you face the people of the world?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "General Qin's eloquence is much better than that of leading troops. It is not me who is treacherous, but you Dayong. Tang Boxi led 30,000 naval troops to invade our territory first, intending to capture Dongliang County, seize my land, and abuse me.
People, as the lord of Dongliang County, what's wrong with me leading an army to attack? You keep talking about faith. If you know faith and integrity, why do you organize a large army to attack our territory? You are exchanging prisoners with me, but you are secretly organizing a large army.
Intending to bloodbath my city, is this what you call morality? Do you know why you lost? It’s because morality is always on my side!"
Qin Yangming said: "Do you think taking Dongluocang will end this matter?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "You don't have to worry about the future, and you have no right to worry. I'll let you go as a defeated general. I'm afraid that Xue Daohong will kill you. I didn't expect that all the generals in Dayong are such pustules.
You are worse than Tang Boxi!"
Qin Yangming was so humiliated by Hu Xiaotian that he blushed and wished he could be killed on the spot. He had fought so cowardly in this battle. Nearly 70,000 troops were manipulated into someone's hands, and they were exhausted between Dongluocang and Dongliang County.
In the end, not only did they fail to capture Dongliang County, but they also lost their important military town, Dongluocang. Hu Xiaotian was right, he was even more useless than Tang Boxi.
Hu Xiaotian asked Zhan Peng to take Qin Yangming away first. He came to Chang Fanqi and said: "General Chang, I'm sorry, what happened today is really helpless. Hu had no intention of harming the old lady. Now the old lady still respects me."
Rest in the mansion. The general can go back to visit her at any time."
Chang Fanqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his mother was fine, but when he thought about his current situation, he couldn't help but feel sad. Because of Hu Xiaotian's threats, he did such a treasonous thing and took Qin Yangming as a hostage in exchange for his mother's life.
Ping An, how can I have the face to face the court?
Chang Fanqi remained silent, turned around and left.
Zhan Peng wanted to let people follow him, but Hu Xiaotian stopped him with his eyes and whispered: "Let him go. He is desperate now."
At this time, Liang Yinghao hurriedly came to Hu Xiaotian's side and said with a happy face: "My lord, it seems that Yong's army has begun to retreat."
Hu Xiaotian smiled calmly and said: "They have no choice!" He looked up and looked at the icy rain that was still falling. He didn't know when the rain was going to fall. Yong's army came with force. They were not only defeated by Yu Tianxing and Zhu Guanqi's plan
Next, they were defeated by the will of God. There were unpredictable weather conditions. This bad weather was beneficial to the defenders. If they followed the weather, they could even defeat millions of troops.
Hu Xiaotian climbed back onto the arrow tower. He looked at the Yong army that had begun to retreat slowly. This time it was obviously a full retreat. The Yong army did not leave any troops stationed because they were worried that Hu Xiaotian's side would gather superior forces to carry out an annihilation battle. This
In this war, they lost their general and the important town of Dongluocang, but fortunately, it did not cause too many casualties and left green hills, so they were not afraid of running out of firewood.
Zhao Wusheng beside him breathed a long sigh of relief. This battle was dangerous but beautiful. He truly began to believe that Hu Xiaotian was a man of great luck.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Brother Wu Sheng, why are you sighing?"
Zhao Wusheng smiled sheepishly and said, "To be honest with you, I thought this battle would be very difficult."
Hu Xiaotian said: "No matter what, we won after all."
Zhao Wusheng said: "Dongluocang is extremely important to Dayong. They will never be willing to give it away. It won't take long for them to gather an army to come back."
Hu Xiaotian said: "We have food and grass, but we are still afraid of not being able to recruit soldiers and horses? Now that we have an army, are we still afraid of going to war with them?"
Zhao Wusheng suddenly felt heroic because of Hu Xiaotian's words. He nodded heavily and said: "Wu Sheng will go through fire and water for you and charge into battle."
Hu Xiaotian said: "I believe it! But it seems that you didn't tell me the truth about some things!"
Zhao Wusheng was shocked when he heard this: "Why do you say this, sir? Wu Sheng has absolutely no objection to you! If you don't believe me, Wu Sheng is willing to die to remember this."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Is it really necessary to be so exaggerated? I just think that when you jumped out to help me in Wuxing County, there might be other reasons behind it, right?"
Only then did Zhao Wusheng realize what Hu Xiaotian was talking about, and he laughed a little sheepishly: "Sir, there is no other reason."
Hu Xiaotian pointed at his nose: "You, you! If I want to know, there is always a way for you to tell me the truth. If you don't tell me now, I won't be able to spare you in the future.:"
Zhao Wusheng said with an embarrassed look on his face: "My lord, I have made a promise to others, so I should keep my promise. I hope you will understand Wu Sheng's difficulties." By saying this, he had already admitted Hu Xiaotian's guess, and there was indeed someone behind him.
Hu Xiaotian knew in his heart that the reason why Zhao Wusheng stood up to help him in the first place must be because of Ji Feihua. It should be Ji Feihua who told Zhao Wusheng not to leak the matter, so Zhao Wusheng still refuses to explain. Hu Xiaotian nodded and did not continue to ask.
Full of gratitude to Ji Feihua, she said softly: "By robbing Dongluo Cang, we have indeed stirred up a hornet's nest. In the past two days, before their army arrives, we will transfer the grain and grass from Dongluo Cang back as soon as possible."
Zhao Wusheng said: "I don't think Yong's army will attack in a short time."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Never mind it, avoid war if possible. It's best to live in peace and harmony."
Zhao Wusheng secretly thought that this war in the future would be inevitable, and it would be impossible to live in peace and harmony. Dayong suffered heavy losses in two consecutive battles. Not only did he lose his troops, but now he even lost his army, Dongluocang, an important town in the southeast.
It was also lost, which meant that the supplies on the southeastern front were in full supply. How could Dayong be willing to stop just now? He would win back the city as soon as possible, both in terms of appearance and strategy. Hu Xiaotian should have considered this, so he made the decision to take back the city as soon as possible.
The decision to transfer strategic materials in Dongluocang.
However, for them, the current situation has undoubtedly improved a lot. Currently, they have three cities under their control. The food problem that previously troubled them the most has been solved at once. With the grain storage in Dongluocang, their soldiers and people can survive in the three cities.
They have no worries about food and drink for a long time. After solving this future problem, they can free up their hands to concentrate on developing internal affairs and expanding their military strength.
Hu Xiaotian thought further than Zhao Wusheng. Although the battle went smoothly and they successfully captured Dongluocang, it did not mean that the pressure they faced disappeared. With their current strength, they were still unable to compete with Dayong. Previously,
The reason why we were able to achieve complete victory in the two battles was due to our proper tactics and careful planning. Another reason was related to the mediocrity of Dayong's generals who underestimated the enemy. Dayong had many outstanding generals and counselors. After suffering two setbacks,
After that, they will definitely pay enough attention to them. If they send troops again next time, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to deal with. Hu Xiaotian has already made preparations to retreat to Wuxing County as a last resort. With the military supplies obtained from Dongluocang, he has already
Enough for them to take root in this area.
The two consecutive great victories made the people of Dongliang County begin to be confused. They used to think that Hu Xiaotian would definitely be defeated, and it would not take long for Dayong's troops to drive out of Dongliang County and rush back to the south bank of the Yongjiang River. However, they did not.
Thinking of it, Hu Xiaotian first defeated Dayong's 30,000 navy troops, and then retreated from Dayong's 70,000 coalition forces. These two battles were all about the weak defeating the strong. Instead of being beaten and fleeing, he took the opportunity to seize Dongluo, the important town in the southeast of Dayong.
Cang, connecting the three cities of Dongluocang, Dongliang County, and Wuxing County, forms a triangular area spanning both sides of the Yongjiang River in the lower reaches of the Yongjiang River. The three cities help each other and complement each other, making the formerly isolated Dongliang County
Having two strong supports is like adding two legs. The entire territory is completely different and takes on a whole new look.
After Yong's army retreated, the icy rain continued for a whole day and night before it stopped. Hu Xiaotian handed over Dongluocang to Zhao Wusheng and Xiong Tianba for garrison, and led Zhan Peng and others back to Dongliang County.
It has cleared up after the rain, but the temperature has suddenly become much colder. The edge of the Yongjiang River has begun to freeze. The snow on the ground has not melted, but a thick layer of ice has condensed due to the freezing rain, making it slippery to walk on.
In fact, people who accidentally fell can be seen everywhere on the streets of Dongliang County.
After Hu Xiaotian returned to Dongliang County, he did not go to the mansion. Instead, he went directly to Zhu Guanqi's home. Before he entered his yard, he smelled an alluring aroma of meat. Hu Xiaotian sniffed hard and saw the courtyard door.
With the door open, Zhu Guanqi was sweeping the snow in the yard with a broom.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Brother Guanqi, you are not kind enough. You took advantage of me to leave Dongliang County and ate good food yourself."
When Zhuge Guanqi heard his voice, he looked up and couldn't help but laugh. At this moment, a bright and beautiful blond girl ran out of the kitchen. Her ice-blue beautiful eyes were filled with joyful light, just like the autumn sunshine.
Such brilliant words: "Master! You're back!" He was about five feet away from Hu Xiaotian, and realized that there was Zhan Peng following Hu Xiaotian, and Zhu Guanqi was also beside him, he stopped abruptly, and his snow-like delicate skin was covered with a layer of
Yan Hong, her expression also became coy (to be continued)
