Beidi Yexiao, after decades of infiltration, has already explored all aspects of the Liang Kingdom, including countless unknown secrets. As far as Chen Si knows, Prince Ming is the most talented prince of the Li family. He has been accompanying the late emperor on military expeditions since he was a child. Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he is excellent in both literature, Taoism and military strategy.
At the age of thirteen, he had already commanded five thousand soldiers and horses and marched on the frontier. At the age of sixteen, he had made great military exploits. At the age of eighteen, he had become an emperor. It's a pity that the late emperor died suddenly without issuing any posthumous edict. The current Emperor Liang took advantage of King Ming's return from the army and coerced the ministers from Kyoto to claim the throne. He stabbed King Ming in the back.
Even so, King Ming never had any direct conflict with Emperor Liang. He had been guarding the border conscientiously, made outstanding achievements many times, and had a high prestige in the army. The more loyal King Ming was to Liang, the more bloody he fought, and the more Liang Emperor became more suspicious of him. After all, King Ming is the one who should inherit the throne. There is always a saying in the market that Emperor Liang was not in the right position and the legal system was not in line!
Under the plan of Emperor Liang, King Ming was recalled to Kyoto.
From the moment King Ming entered Kyoto, he became a prisoner. Emperor Liang targeted and stymied him at every turn. In folk parlance, he was looking for trouble all day long. Finally, he seized the opportunity and demoted King Ming to Fuyun County. The euphemistic name is a fiefdom, but in reality it is house arrest.
The reason why Fuyun County was chosen is also well explained.
If he is demoted too far, given the prestige of King Ming, he will definitely be supported by the military.
If he stays in Kyoto, he will worry about the ministers in the DPRK and take the opportunity to attack.
Fuyun County was just right. It was outside the city of Kyoto, but also belonged to the thirty-six counties of Kyoto and was controlled by Emperor Liang. Although Emperor Liang never said it explicitly, he hinted at obstacles at every turn, so that the two sons of King Ming, Li Zhang and Li Lang, have not yet been able to get married. Emperor Liang wanted to cut off the bloodline of Prince Ming and avoid future troubles forever.
Under such pressure from Emperor Liang, King Ming could only pretend to be stupid in order to save his life. However, Li Zhang and Li Lang learned the true story of King Ming, and they were all outstanding men.
This time Qin Feng can get help from the two brothers Li Zhang and Li Lang, and he will definitely be even more powerful!
Facts have also proven that Chen Si’s worries have come true!
Qin Feng is based in Kyoto. Although he has a spy organization and an increasingly large-scale Beixi County Station under his command, he can grasp the changes in the military situation in the north immediately. But after all, we are thousands of miles apart, and even if we drive at high speed and drive under the stars, there will still be a three-day delay in between. Even if Qin Feng is determined by his talent, he cannot fully control the situation in the northern border.
At the same time, according to intelligence, Lin Quqi, the magistrate of Beixi County, was born in Juren. Although he was very talented in literature, he was not familiar with the art of war. Among the four daughters of the Qin family, the eldest Shen Qingci is more talented than martial arts, the second eldest Liu Hongyan is a proficient merchant, the third eldest Li Xiaolan is good at forbearance, and the fourth eldest Jing Qianying is just a brave man.
Even Qin Cheng, the former first-grade imperial concubine, was nothing more than a scheming female figure who was not very useful.
It can be said that no one in the entire Beixi County can be taken seriously by Chen Si.
But now, with the move of Prince Ming's family, Chen Si suddenly felt more pressure. He knew that Qin Feng only needed to give the general policy in Kyoto, and Li Zhang could implement it perfectly. The two complemented each other, giving Chen Si a big headache. The changes in today's war can be seen from the setbacks suffered in both battles in Beixi County and the frontier camp.
"Although Mr. Emperor Liang only knows how to play with power, he is indeed very cunning in employing and understanding people!"
"We can't wait any longer! We must start a full-scale war immediately!"
Chen Si issued a series of orders!
Just when he was about to go to the forward camp and discuss with the forward commander about attacking the frontier camp, the messenger once again brought bad news.
"General! The Beixi County defenders have not retreated!"
"We have been pursuing all the way. We are less than ten miles away from here. The soldiers in front are blocking the attack. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Please leave quickly!"
Hearing this, Chen Si's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
The Beixi County defenders just took the initiative to attack, but they actually pursued them all the way to the border? When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!
Chen Si considered for a moment, his eyes suddenly condensed, and he shouted: "The Beixi County defenders took the initiative to attack, must be to disrupt the rhythm of our army's attack, hinder the fighter planes, and presumably to buy time for the autumn harvest in the rear!"
"Food in the northern border of Liang State is the key to this battle! Never give in even a step!"
"Pass my order to the soldiers at the front and fight to the death. If the whole army is exhausted, when this battle is over, I will personally wear sackcloth and mourn for the soldiers and guard the mausoleum for three years!"
Chen Si immediately gave up the idea of going to the Pioneer Camp. He stayed on the spot like a needle in the sea and gritted his teeth: "Quickly send an order to the rear and send light cavalry to rush to the rescue! No matter what, stop the counterattack of the Beixi County defenders!"
The deputy general who hurried back from the front line jumped off his horse. There were several arrows stuck in his armor. The goggles on his chest were completely dented. It was obviously caused by being hit hard with a blunt object. His body seemed to be stained red with blood. .
The deputy general's eyes were bloodshot and he shouted: "General! The Beixi County defenders are attacking very fiercely. It is difficult for us to resist. General, please avoid the battle quickly!"
Chen Si ignored the deputy general's pleas, his face was livid, and he remained motionless: "If we can't stop the Beixi County defenders, this battle will suffer a big setback. I am the special envoy supervising the battle and I shoulder full responsibility! If the Beixi County defenders come, , I will kill you with my neck, and I will die to apologize! I, Chen Si, am willing to live and die together with all the soldiers!"
Seeing Chen Si's resolute attitude, the deputy general's eyes turned red, he gritted his teeth, got on his horse, and rushed to the front line again.
In the wilderness less than seven miles away from Chen Si, the shouts of killing were loud.
Zhao Yulong led three thousand black cavalry in a rampage, turning the people killed by Sang Qian's army on their backs. Wherever they passed, blood gathered in streams and bones piled up into mountains. Zhao Yulong is like an unstoppable evil god. The blade of the horse in his hand broke because it pierced too many armors! Zhao Yulong casually dropped the horse's harness, pulled out a seven-foot-long sword from the saddle, and slashed back and forth.
"Sang Qian's army is gone, all the soldiers will charge with me!"
With an angry shout, Zhao Yulong held a barrier knife and rushed directly towards the densely packed Sangqian army in front of him. Three thousand black cavalry followed closely behind, and another two thousand light cavalry supported on the two wings. Five thousand infantry advanced from behind.
All the soldiers of the Sangqian Army knew in their hearts that the defenders of Beixi County were irresistible.
At this time, the death rate of Sangqian's army had reached a terrifying 70%!
Even the ace division, with its extremely high morale, had already collapsed in the face of a 70% death rate. But the remaining more than 3,000 Sanggan soldiers held the belief that they would die and refused to retreat. In this battle, Beidi's national destiny was at stake, and the honor and disgrace of Beidi's people for the remaining twenty years was at stake.
The lieutenants of Sang Qian's army are all dead. The lieutenants are all dead. The gatekeepers are on top. The gatekeepers are all dead. The generals are on top. The generals are all dead. The tooth generals are on top.
Although Sangqian's army only had infantry left, facing the heavily armored black cavalry, it was almost a one-sided massacre. The battle damage rate reached an astonishing dozens to one, but no one escaped.
