Chen Cheng's appearance is very recognizable. He is eight feet tall, tall and majestic, and wears thick and strong armor. It will leave a deep impression on people once they see it. The mount under his crotch is even more recognizable, and it is very hot.
With red hair, explosive muscles, a larger body than ordinary horses, and slender limbs, even if they have never seen it, the Xiliang Army has heard of such a "Pegasus".
When Chen Cheng rode his horse and rushed to the vicinity of Huangbei Mountain, the Xiliang army on the roadside cheered loudly when they saw the flying flames.
"Ah, Mr. Chen!"
"Lord Zhou Mu!"
Hearing the cheers from outside, Song Jian and others quickly walked out of the tent. Chen Cheng reined in his horse and stopped in front of the tent. This place is called Jinshili, and it is at a corner of the Weishui River, but here
The water flow is more rapid than that of Huangbei Mountain. Originally there was a village here, belonging to Fufeng County, with more than 200 households. However, as the Xiliang Army invaded again, this place has been reduced to ruins.
The Han army originally dug trenches here and built a simple fence, but soon gave up. After Song Jian and others captured this place, they saw that there were still some houses that could be used, so they set up a large tent at the entrance.
Stone.
"I've met Mr. Chen!"
"I've met Mr. Chen!"
"I've met Mr. Chen!"
Zhang Heng's title was different from the others, and he seemed particularly close. He took off his helmet and said loudly: "I have met my lord!"
Chen Cheng jumped off the horse and said, "How is the situation ahead now?"
A smile appeared on Cheng Yi's beautiful face and he said: "Your Majesty, please come into the tent to speak."
"Okay," Chen Cheng entered first and sat down in the first place. Others thought it was natural, even though this tent belonged to Cheng Yin before.
Cheng Yi said: "The Han army erected two fences and dug four trenches at the foot of the mountain..."
"Are they still digging trenches?"
"Yes," Zhang Hengdao said, "not only are they digging at the foot of the mountain, they are also digging on the mountain. It seems that they are determined to trap us here. The terrain here is too narrow, and there are rocks everywhere on Huangbei Mountain.
The cavalry is not easy to use. I wonder if my lord has brought a lot of heavy infantry?"
Chen Cheng said: "There are more than 80 of my soldiers behind me, and Han Sui and Li Xiangru also brought a thousand men each."
"What's the use of so many people?" Song Jian blurted out: "We have already suffered more than 3,000 casualties."
Chen Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "More than three thousand casualties?"
Song Jian didn't understand what Chen Cheng meant, so he said casually: "Yes, the corpses have already filled the two trenches."
"The total strength of your troops is 40,000," Chen Cheng said slowly, "Only 3,000 people were killed or wounded. It's nothing at all."
The owner of the tent was stunned when he heard this. Cheng Yi shook his head and said: "That's not what it is. Our armor is very bad. When we went up to fight, we were killed by strong bows and crossbows. Otherwise, we would not have let the soldiers move out of the way."
, so that the black-armored army can come up."
"Yes, the officers and soldiers' bows and arrows are really powerful!"
"The ones who went up first were the most capable warriors, but at least half of them were shot to death!"
"Those officers and soldiers are so capable. We have broken down a fence before, but there is another fence behind. The soldiers ran for more than a hundred miles and are very tired when they get here, so..."
Chen Cheng looked at Song Jian coldly, and the latter's voice became smaller and smaller. In the end, he simply kept silent. Chen Cheng looked around the tent and sneered: "When our army came here, all the soldiers were
They are very tired. The Han army came in a big circle, aren't they tired?"
"I think you don't want to use your own troops to collide with the Han army's defense line, so you are blocked here!"
Anger appeared on Cheng Yi's face, "Is this how your Majesty saw me, Cheng Yi?"
Chen Cheng looked at him coldly, "How else could I look at him?"
Cheng Yi said angrily: "Okay, envoy, please sit here and watch how I, Cheng Yi, fight!"
After that, he stood up and was about to walk out. Suddenly, a shout came from the big tent, "Stop!"
Chen Cheng used up all his energy and roared loudly, causing the tent to rattle. Cheng Yi didn't take precautions, and was so dizzy from the shock that it took him a while to wake up.
"Since General Cheng has this intention, please come with me to attack the enemy's camp later!" Chen Cheng looked at the other princes who were also shocked and dizzy, then turned his eyes on Zhang Heng and said: "
Zhang Heng, your black-armored army is a rare heavy-armored elite, I will send them all up later, do you have any objections?"
The muscles on Zhang Heng's face twitched, and he said fiercely: "If we can't penetrate the Han army's defense line, we will all be prisoners!"
He glared at Chen Cheng and said, "I will personally lead the charge!"
If there is enough time and a few more catapults are assembled, the Han army's crude defense line will definitely be able to break through. But now the army can only store food for three days, and the Han army is recruiting large-scale reinforcements, but there is no time to let them slowly
Now you can assemble a catapult or craft an instrument.
"Very good!" Chen Cheng showed an approving look on his face and said to the generals in the tent: "I, Chen Cheng, have always done things fairly. Those who have done meritorious service will be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes will be punished! Since General Zhang is willing to bring out all the elites, then I will definitely
I will not treat you badly, and when I return to Liangzhou, I will make you the governor of Wudu."
As soon as these words came out, the battle suddenly became quiet and fell into a strange atmosphere. Ma Teng was the first to break the strange atmosphere. He said in a deep voice: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to do this. Wudu is
Hangeul’s territory!”
These days, or at any time, the most difficult thing is to take out the money from other people's pockets, or to make others spit out the meat they have eaten. How could Wudu County, which Han Sui worked so hard to conquer, be handed over to others?
Ma Teng knew about this, Song Jian knew about it, Cheng Yin knew about it, Cheng Yi knew about it, and even Zhang Heng knew about it. He was stunned and said: "Han Sui will not agree."
Chen Cheng's mouth showed a mocking look. Although the Xiliang princes were all good at fighting, they were also a bunch of short-sighted people. It was not difficult to deal with them. He sneered a few times and followed the plan he had made with Yan Zhong before.
He said: "This Eastern Expedition was initiated by Han Sui, and everyone came to help him. Now every family has suffered heavy losses. Shouldn't they ask him for some compensation?"
How can we still play like this? Everyone in the tent looked at each other, and they all saw greed and wariness in each other's eyes.
Chen Cheng added: "After this battle is over, I will naturally lead my troops back to Yinchuan, and there is no need for more territory. But General Zhang Heng has taken out all his elites, so naturally I will give him the biggest share. I think
Wudu County is fine. After General Zhang Heng takes office as the governor of Wudu, the original territory can be divided between General Song Jian and General Cheng Yin."
The eyes of Zhang Heng, Cheng Yin, and Song Jian became even more intense.
Chen Cheng sneered in his heart, "Win the battle to eliminate the enemy, and defeat the battle to eliminate the internal troubles." We can also use this trick.
Ma Teng and Cheng Yi stared dumbfoundedly at the sudden change in the situation, feeling that their minds seemed to be a bit out of control. Although the princes of Xiliang were just grassroots, the wind was blowing too hard, wasn't it? The grass was about to break!
Just by listening to Zhang Heng's and the others' heavy breathing, I knew that these people were absolutely tempted.
Yes, everyone went to Chencang to fight life and death, all to help Han Sui. Now that the losses are so great, it is reasonable to ask Han Wen for some compensation, isn't it?
Cheng Yi looked at the stern-faced Chen Cheng, feeling awe and fear in his heart. He thought to himself: Could it be that what Chen Shijun showed to others before was all an illusion, and now this is his true face?
Chen Cheng continued: "General Ma Teng helped Han Sui fight against the imperial troops last year. This time he sent people and food. He can get the three counties of Long County, Warriors, and Ayang. As for General Cheng Yi...
..."
Cheng Yi quickly said: "If I don't have the merit, there is no need to give me the city."
Chen Cheng looked at him with a half-smile, and asked playfully: "General Cheng, do you really don't want it?"
Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then he realized when he saw a group of people with unkind expressions around him. Everyone is sharing the spoils, but you don't want it. Why, do you want to show off?
After understanding this section, Cheng Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I wonder what your Majesty wants to reward me with?"
Chen Cheng thought for a while and found that there seemed to be no place for Cheng Yi, so he said: "Next year I will build two textile factories in Yinchuan, one of which will be used to spin cotton. However, the output of cotton is not stable yet, so even if
The other one is used for spinning wool. General Cheng, please invest some money in it, and I will leave you 20% of the shares."
From Chencang to the Liuchuan River, he killed hundreds of people and saw that he was only a little short of being able to advance to the next level. After defeating the enemy on Huangbei Mountain, he would add two more levels of "
"Engineering" should be able to make a spinning wheel.
Cheng Yi knows how profitable those factories in Yinchuan are. He took 10% of the previous silver mine, which is equivalent to half a year's income of Wuwei County. Although the current textile factory does not know the future, it should not be as big as mining silver.
The profit is huge, but since Chen Shijun is talking about it alone, he must be very profitable.
For some reason, he felt inexplicably happy and thought to himself: It's no wonder that Han Sui should have brought something out to reward everyone. The emperor didn't need hungry soldiers.
After discussing the matter of dividing the stolen goods, Chen Cheng's expression turned cold again, "What I just said can only be counted after the enemy's interception is defeated. If we all die here, no matter how much we have, we will not be alive to get it.
.You select a thousand elites from each family and equip them with the best weapons and armor in the army, and wait until Han Sui and others come..."
Song Jian, Cheng Yin and others' breathing became heavier. On the one hand, they felt that the current internal strife was not very authentic. On the other hand, they felt that it would be better for Han Wenyue to die. Otherwise, how would they get the benefits? But, they
Although he was determined to kill Han Sui, he felt that Chen Cheng was too cruel.
However, Chen Cheng's next words disappointed them, "When Han Sui and others come, bring their troops and horses over and let me command them together. We should all work together to move westward and be sure to break the Han army's obstruction!"
The sound of heavy breathing disappeared, and Song Jian inadvertently looked to the side, only to see Cheng Yin, Zhang Heng, and the others with disappointed looks on their faces. At this time, they felt that Chen Cheng was too soft-hearted, since they had already decided
If you want to divide Han Sui's territory, why should you be polite to him?
