The first thousand three hundred and seventy-ninth chapters do not die
In the battle of Furiangjiang, the Song army severely damaged the enemy's main force, killing more than 30,000 people and surrendering more than 10,000. The enemy's elite troops lost more than half of them in this battle, and the navy army was completely wiped out.
Of course, the Song army also suffered about 8,000 casualties when crossing the river, but 8,000 people were exchanged for tens of thousands of the other side. It is clear at a glance who loses and who wins.
More importantly, the Song Army accomplished its strategic goal and the entire main force crossed the Furiang River.
It can be said that it ended with a complete victory.
In the big tent, the lights were bright, Li Qi was sitting in the upper seat, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and other soldiers were sitting on the left and right sides. When Yue Fei told this string of data, all the soldiers laughed heartily.
Only one person remained silent.
This person is Li Qi.
Yue Fei and the others were all big men and did not pay attention to this. They were still complimenting each other with the other generals. Han Shizhong naturally took the greatest credit in this battle. It was he who perfectly defeated the Jiaozhi navy and covered the main force to cross the river very well.
In exchange for this great victory, Yue Fei and others also toasted to Han Shizhong and Ning Wu.
Han Shizhong had been holding back for several months, and now he was finally elated. He was in a good mood and accepted everyone who came. However, this was Li Qi's big house, and wine was very sensitive. He only needed a few bowls, not more.
Liang Hongyu was a woman. She noticed something strange about Li Qi, but she didn't ask too much. She knew clearly that Li Qi had many issues to consider if he was not in his position and did not seek political advice. If he wanted to say something, he would naturally
Say, because he is the biggest here. If he doesn't want to say it, but you ask him, this is not what a smart person should do.
After a while, Li Qi suddenly stood up with a cup and said: "Generals, you have worked hard for today's battle. I will give you a cup of tea instead of wine, but this is also the last cup today. The war is not over yet. But now
This is not the time to celebrate."
This second half of the sentence is the key point.
Yue Fei, Niu Gao and the others had just finished drinking, but Li Qi just poured the cold water down without even smoking.
But all of them knew that Li Qi said he couldn't drink anymore, and anyone who drank any more would definitely be punished by military law. No one showed any dissatisfaction, but Niu Gao immediately filled the glass with wine.
The movements are very cautious. The pair of cow's eyes are wide open and round, as if they are pursuing the wine to level the rim of the cup.
Li Qi held it up for a while, then glanced at Niu Gao. Seeing the carefree look of this old man, he felt angry and funny, and said: "Niu Gao, if you really want to drink, you can go alone with the wine jar."
If you drink outside, you will be responsible for the logistics from now on."
Logistics? This is a matter of light and darkness! Niu Gao's face tightened. He subconsciously raised the cup and spilled more than half of it. A flash of distress flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "I will give you a cup at the end of the day."
Yue Fei and others also suppressed their laughter and said in unison: "We respect the Privy Envoy."
Everyone drank it all in one gulp.
What a pleasure!
But after having fun, they all consciously put their wine glasses aside.
Li Qi glanced around and asked: "Now that Shenglong Mansion is close at hand, do you have any strategies to break the city?"
Yue Fei immediately said: "Now more than half of the enemy's elite troops have been damaged. The general thought that we should take advantage of the victory to pursue it, so he immediately sent troops to besiege Shenglong Mansion. The general is willing to be the vanguard officer."
As soon as he finished speaking, Niu Gao waved his hands and said, "It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate."
Yue Fei asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Niu Gao said: "You are the commander-in-chief, how can you risk your life? If you have any shortcomings, it will be terrible."
Yue Fei smiled and scolded: "You are so angry. If you want to be the vanguard, just tell me. Why are you cursing me?"
Niu Gao chuckled and said: "Privy Envoys, everyone, I, Lao Niu, cannot boast. I am the best choice for this pioneer officer."
Although Wang Gui, Dong Xian and others were also eager to try, after all, everyone wanted to be the first to break into Shenglong Mansion, but Niu Gao was several levels higher than them, so they naturally did not dare to compete with Niu Gao. Except for one person
, he was Yang Zaixing, and I heard him say: "Shuai Ma, you are also the deputy commander-in-chief. Leave such small matters to me."
He is a murderous maniac, and he has always been the arrowhead of the Song army. It seems that he is always the first to rush into the enemy's formation.
This kid is really disgusting, he dares to compete with me for this pioneer officer. Niu Gao said again: "It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate, anyone can go here, but you, Yang Zaixing, can't do it."
Yang Zaixing frowned and said, "Why is this?"
Niu Gao said: "Think about it, the enemy is definitely defending the city wall now. You are a bit impatient and rush up when you see the enemy. Isn't this just asking the enemy to hit you with stones? This siege is very special."
What are you good at? If not, you can follow me. When the city gate is breached, I will let you be the first to rush in."
Originally, Yang Zaixing had no objection to his arrangement, but he felt that Niu Gao looked down on him, and felt a little unhappy, saying: "I---."
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Li Qi, "You guys, don't argue. I already have a suitable candidate for the vanguard officer."
"I knew it must be me."
Niu Gao said extremely shamelessly.
Yang Zaixing snorted dissatisfied.
Li Qi looked at Niu Gao and said with a smile: "You know too much, but unfortunately, the best candidate in my heart is not you."
Niu Gao was shocked and said: "Who else is more suitable than me?"
Li Qi pointed at himself and said, "That's me."
"you---."
Niu Gao subconsciously pointed at Li Qi, but stopped speaking. He just told Li Qi with his eyes, are you kidding me?
Not to mention him, even Zhao Jingyan and Yue Fei were stunned.
This joke is a bit big.
Li Qi pretended to be angry: "What? You look down on me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Niu Gao hurriedly waved his big hands, patted the horse and said: "None of us have seen the methods of the Privy Councilor. To be honest with the Privy Councilor, I, Lao Niu, have always believed that there is nothing in this world that can stump the Privy Councilor. It's just that
It's just Jiaozhi, just leave it to servants like us. If the Privy Council asks you to take action, isn't this just killing a chicken with a knife?"
"An ox knife?" Li Qi smiled and said, "You mean the knife specially designed to kill a cow like yours?"
Niu Gao said hehe, "I can be regarded as a cow in front of those Jiaozhi children, but in front of you, the Privy Councilor, I am a chicken."
"....!"
Li Qi was speechless for a while.
This Niu Gao has been with Li Qi for the longest time, and he really understands his essence. Zhao Jingyan smiled bitterly and shook her head, and then said to Li Qi: "Privy Envoy, there is no joke in the army. As a Privy Envoy, how can you be the vanguard?"
Official?"
The other soldiers nodded. Is this simply unreasonable?
Li Qi smiled and said: "I know you look down on me and think I don't know how to fight. If I don't show you my skills this time, you will really forget that I am also a military commander. Well, as long as any of you can do something, I will
Let him be the pioneer officer."
"What?"
All the soldiers looked at Li Qi curiously.
Li Qidao: "On the premise of not killing anyone, break through Shenglong Mansion."
"What---."
Niu Gao slapped his chest, but before the word "difficult" came out of his mouth, he froze. He was shocked and said: "Privy Envoy, you - what did you say? Did I hear you right? No one will die?"
"You heard it right." Li Qi said with a smile: "This Shenglong Mansion is already in our possession. I believe that everyone here can break the city, but it will kill anyone. If it rises again, it will still be a murderous maniac.
Anyone can break the city. The key to this war is not to break the city and kill the enemy. It is to find a way to break the Shenglong Mansion at the minimum cost. Do you think I am wrong?"
Yue Fei nodded and said: "The Privy Councilor's words are very reasonable."
Han Shizhong frowned and said, "But I don't think anyone can do it without killing one person."
"That's right, that's right."
Niu Gao looked in disbelief: "This Shenglong Mansion is also the capital of Jiaozhi after all. Let's not talk about this. Even if we have 10,000 people and fight 100 people, there is no water to guarantee that no one will die. How is this possible?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Niu Gao. If you don't believe it, how about we take a gamble? If I do it, you will be like me. From now on, I will never drink. If I don't do it, you can take this seat."
Forget it, you don’t dare to sit down even if I give you a seat, I’ll reward you with a hundred barrels of unparalleled food.”
If it were anyone else, Niu Gao would really take the gamble, but since the other party was Li Qi, he really didn't dare to agree to it.
At this time, someone suddenly said: "Do you want to persuade the Privy Council to surrender?"
This person is none other than Liang Hongyu.
Zhao Jingyan originally thought of this, but was beaten to the punch by Liang Hongyu. She couldn't help but look at Liang Hongyu and thought to herself, Mrs. Han is worthy of being a loyal and brave Mrs. She is indeed both civil and military.
Li Qi smiled and nodded, saying: "That's right. Everyone knows that I don't value force very much and like to convince others with virtue."
A group of soldiers suddenly woke up.
Niu Gao was secretly glad that he had not agreed to Li Qi's bet just now. If Li Qi really led the troops to attack Shenglong Mansion in person, not only would he die, but also whether he could win a big victory, there is still a big question mark, but
When it comes to convincing people with "virtue", Niu Gao really doesn't dare to gamble. After all, Li Qi's mouth is so eloquent. There are countless people in the world who have suffered from his mouth, and every one of them
They all have great backgrounds, such as Wanyan Aguda, Song Huizong, Wang Fu, Cai You, etc.
Even if Li Qi said that heaven would rain down gold coins, some people would definitely believe it.
Zhao Jingyan said: "Are you sure?"
"How can I dare to drive to Haikou if I am not sure." Li Qi nodded and smiled: "You all know that after several tests, it is almost certain that Li Qiande is dead. As far as the current situation is concerned, Jiaozhi is no longer alive.
There is no chance of winning, but having said that, if they choose to surrender, then who will be the biggest victim."
Zhao Jingyan said: "Li Qiande."
Li Qi nodded and said: "That's right. Li Qiande is the emperor of Jiaozhi. Once the Shenglong Palace is destroyed, the demise of the Li Dynasty's regime will be declared. Li Qiande is naturally the biggest victim. The problem is that the biggest victim is already dead, so I
Let me ask you again, who is the biggest beneficiary?"
Zhao Jingyan seemed to understand something and said: "Is it those ministers in Jiaozhi?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Being a minister under someone is no longer a minister. In this case, those civil servants will only think about their own glory and wealth. Ahem, I am specifically referring to the civil servants in Jiaozhi."
"I'll understand later."
"It's good to understand." Li Qi continued: "They don't have to fight with their lives, and they have money. If they are attacked by us, they will all be prisoners, and all their parents' property will be returned to us. The wealth and power they have gained over the past few decades It will become a thing of the past, and they may not even be able to save their lives, so as long as I release some temptations, they will definitely choose to surrender. Now the government of Cochin is controlled by these ministers, and this attempt to persuade them to surrender will be successful immediately."
