MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1086 old friends in beijing
Chapter 1086 The old friend in Beijing
The forbidden army has been holding on for so long. This time, the reason why four Zhechong Houses will be sent to confront the Southwest Army head-on is not because they suddenly have courage, but because Jiangnan's Xiang army has come to the capital of King Qin, and the intention of the court will be attacked from both sides. , Even if the Southwest Army could not be destroyed in one go, the Southwest Army would suffer heavy losses and be forced to retreat.
In this regard, Li Xin's response is also very simple. Li Shuo's Ningzhou army is responsible for dealing with the frontal banned army, while Muying's Hanzhou army resting in Luzhou is the local army responsible for blocking the rear service king.
The Ningzhou army has been replenished all the way, and the number has already reached 100,000, which is no different from the number of the four Zhechongfu, but Muying's Hanzhou army, when they came out of Hanzhong, only 50,000 people, and they consumed a lot along the way. , especially when attacking Luzhou, there was a lot of damage, and now the combat power that can be used is only 30,000 or 40,000 people.
But there are about 150,000 troops in the place where King Qin came!
According to the number of people, the Hanzhou army is far inferior to the Xiang army in these places, but the difficulty of fighting is much easier on the Hanzhou army than Li Shuo's Ningzhou army.
As soon as they came to these places, the armies did not have much combat power, and they basically did not have any ability to deal with firearms, and it was even less likely that they had the confidence to rush forward in the face of firearms like the Gyeonggi Imperial Army.
Therefore, Mu Ying's battle was quite easy.
He even took the Hanzhou army and walked out of the city of Luzhou. With only 30,000 people, he faced the local Xiang army who came to help.
When really started fighting, the Southwest Arms Battalion had already formed a fixed pattern.
The shield soldiers are in the front, the throwers are in the back, and the firearms and archers are thicker. With the help of firearms, the formation of these van troops, which were not well-organized in the original formation, was washed away almost in a single encounter. .
Some Xiang Jun, who had never seen the world, saw Tianlei explode beside them, and killed and injured their comrades who were still alive in an instant. Everyone was scared stupid. Some of them were a little smarter. Lying on the ground, some even froze in place, not daring to move.
After a few rounds of firearms, the Xiang army was on the verge of being defeated. Mu Ying, wearing black armor, led the elite of the Hanzhou army, and rushed into the formation of the Xiang army like a tiger entering a pack of wolves.
This black-faced general was thunderous.
"Disarm and don't kill, disarm and don't kill!"
More than a hundred of his personal soldiers followed him and shouted on the battlefield: "Disarm and don't kill, disarm and don't kill!"
In fact, Li Xin only asked Mu Ying to lead the Hanzhou army to stop the armies in these places, and did not give him specific combat instructions, nor did he let him go to subdue these armies, but on the way from Hanzhong to Shu, Hanzhou The army was in front of the army, but the Ningzhou army followed behind and became a "fat man". Mu Ying looked a little jealous, so taking advantage of this opportunity, she also wanted to expand the number of her Hanzhou army.
The military in these places were originally of very poor military quality. After being blown up by Tianlei, they basically lost their fighting ability and the ability to charge a second time. Throw down your weapon and kneel in surrender.
Compared to the day-long battle between the Ningzhou army and the Gyeonggi forbidden army, the collision between the Hanzhou army and the Xiang army in these places took only two or three hours, and the battle was over.
In the end, most of the troops fled, and a small part died under Tianlei and the bows and arrows of the Hanzhou Army. The other part knelt down and surrendered and became prisoners of the Hanzhou Army.
Mu Ying won the battle simply and neatly, and then brought people back to Luzhou. After settling down his soldiers, he turned on his horse and instructed the lieutenant of the Hanzhou army to rest in Luzhou to rest the army, while preventing those The scattered Xiang army came back, and he himself rode to the front line where the Ningzhou army was.
Before he left, he instructed his lieutenants to immediately prepare to support the Ningzhou army as soon as he received the news, and to be ready for the retreat of the Ningzhou army.
At times like this, even Mu Ying, who is usually carefree, is inevitably nervous.
The Hanzhou Army was facing a mob in the back, but the Ningzhou Army in the front was facing the most elite Central Forbidden Army in the entire Jin Dynasty!
If the battle on the front line is unfavorable, even if it is only a small loss, it will be an extremely heavy blow to the morale of the entire Southwest Army. If the Ningzhou Army is defeated, including his Hanzhou Army, they will retreat to the southwest. This time, the Eastern Expedition was in vain.
The Ningzhou army camp on the front line was about a hundred miles away from Luzhou. Mu Ying rode a fast horse and finally arrived at the Ningzhou army camp in the middle of the night. After arriving at the Ningzhou army camp, he first Looking at the situation of the Ningzhou army camp, seeing that although there are many wounded soldiers in the Ningzhou army camp, there are not many people with frowning faces, and many people are still smiling, Mu Ying is a little relieved. Under the leadership of Li Xin's personal guard, he entered Li Xin's handsome tent.
Not long after Li Xin lay down, after hearing the news that Mu Ying was coming, General Li rubbed his eyes, put on his clothes, and got up from the bed sleepily.
Mu Ying, who was in iron armor, bowed into the handsome tent, and saluted Li Xin with a fist: "I have seen the general!"
Li Xin stretched out his hand, rubbed his eyes, stretched his waist again, then looked up at Mu Ying, yawned and said, "Brother Mu came to the front line so late, what happened in the back?"
"Nothing at the rear."
Mu Ying hurriedly said: "Today, the general will have a battle with the Xiang army in those places. Those Xiang army... are really not good. They are not much worse than the defenders in Luzhou, and they will be divided in only two or three hours. After the victory or defeat, the last general was worried that something would happen to the Ningzhou army, so he came to have a look."
Having said this, he looked up at Li Xin and asked cautiously, "General, Ningzhou Army is here..."
"This side also won."
Li Xin pointed to the cushion beside him, motioned Mu Ying to sit down and talk, and then he said: "Today, the Ningzhou army and the forbidden army fought for a whole day, and in the evening, the forbidden army was defeated and returned to the city. There were casualties, but there were a lot more deaths from the Imperial Army than the Ningzhou Army."
Mu Ying grinned when she heard the words: "It seems that General Xiao Li is very good at leading his troops, and even the Imperial Guard is no match for his Ningzhou Army."
"This battle, if my Hanzhou army comes to fight, it will probably be over."
Li Xin also followed with a smile: "You came here from Luzhou at night with a black face, do you want to see a joke about the defeat of the Ningzhou army?"
"The last will not dare."
Mu Ying shook her head again and again and said, "Hanzhou Army and Ningzhou Army are both the Southwest Army of the Great General. Everyone is of the same spirit. At first glance, if I can help, the last general of the Hanzhou army has ordered and is ready to support the Ningzhou army at any time."
Having said that, Mu Ying glanced at Li Xin again and asked, "General, we have won both sides, then the next step..."
Li Xin smiled dumbly: "Since both sides have won, it's not us who should be worried, but the officials in the capital. The Ningzhou army fought very beautifully in this battle. A lot of people will reach out to us.”
Having said this, Li Xin squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I have an old friend in the capital. If we can persuade him to fall to the side of the Southwest Army, we will be able to enter smoothly without fighting with the Imperial Army. Beijing."
"An old friend?"
Mu Ying looked at Li Xin with some doubts and asked, "The general is saying... the Ye family?"
Li Xin shook his head slightly.
"Accurately speaking, an old subordinate of mine."
