The defeat of the Dawan army has been finalized. Now that King Yu Cheng has been shot and killed by an arrow, there is no possibility of the Dawan army making a comeback.
And at this time.
Huo Guang had already led his men to chase King Yu Cheng where he fell from his horse and surrounded him.
This King Yu Cheng probably treated his soldiers well.
That's it. There were still a few soldiers who didn't turn into fish and birds and dispersed. Instead, they surrounded the dying King Yu Cheng and confronted Huo Guang and others.
But this is doomed to be in vain.
They couldn't stop the Han army, not to mention they were already exhausted.
Zhao Daniu alone could easily take them all away.
After no longer hindered by these soldiers.
Huo Guang walked up to King Yu Cheng with a gloomy face while holding the ring-shou knife, and asked in a low voice: "King Yu Cheng, before I chop off your head, I want to ask you something."
"you"
"You really don't know who Lin Yaoqing is?"
King Yu Cheng knew the language of the Han people. Now when he heard Huo Guang ask him this question, he immediately said in a hoarse voice: "Haha, how many Han people have I killed?"
"Who are you talking about, Lin?"
"Cough cough cough"
King Yu Cheng suddenly coughed. However, all he could cough up at this moment was a large amount of blood.
However.
Huo Guang completely ignored his miserable situation and continued to speak at a moderate speed: "In that case, I can only say that you are much luckier than Lin Yaoqing."
"Colonel Lin Yaoqing died in your hands, but you didn't know who he was."
"But I know that you are the soul who died under my sword!"
The words fell.
Huo Guang raised the Huanshou sword high, raised the sword with his hand and cut off King Yu Cheng's head.
Yidao glanced at Queen Yucheng.
Huo Guang ordered at this time: "Go, call someone, call the nobleman Mocai from Dawan Kingdom!"
"The rest of the people, count them."
"promise!"
The remaining soldiers began to follow Huo Guang's orders.
Soon.
The soldiers then counted the number of people in the army and reported back: "Reporting to General Chariot and Cavalry, the remaining strength of our army is less than 2,000 men!"
Twenty thousand!
Let’s not talk about Li Guangli’s reasons.
Counting from Ershi City, Huo Guang led more than 4,000 men, starting from the dug cave, and went to Yu City for a night attack. The battle ended this evening, and he lost more than half of his troops.
But there is no way.
In war, people will die.
Even his brother Huo Qubing was the same.
In the first Hexi Corridor War, the men led by Huo Qubing suffered heavy casualties, which even made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty unhappy.
This also led to Huo Qubing's second war against the Hexi region.
certainly.
These are beside the point.
After counting the number of people, the sky gradually dimmed, and someone had already lit a torch.
At this moment.
The soldiers followed Huo Guang's wishes and brought the Dawan noble Micai.
To be honest, the peace advocates like Mocai are greedy for life and afraid of death. These people will not put themselves in the danger of a battle between the two armies, and will 100% stay away.
They say they are the peace faction.
actually!
The Han army had already reached the territory of Dayuan, and there was actually no difference between the offer of peace and the offer of surrender.
"Kneel down!" Since too many Han people died in the battle with the Dawan people, the soldier now became angry when he saw the Dawan people.
Of course, Mocai was also from Dawan, and he was also a noble of Dawan.
so.
Without hesitation, he kicked Mei Cai in the leg, causing him to wail and kneel in front of Huo Guang.
Huo Guang saw this.
He immediately helped Mo Cai up and scolded the soldiers: "Don't be rude!"
Mocai knew that the man in front of him was a Han god of killing. King Yu Cheng's 30,000 elites were killed by him, so he was not angry at all. He immediately said: "General, you called me, what are your orders?" Just do as you are told!"
At this moment, Mo Cai's attitude was extremely humble, and there was no trace of nobility at all.
and.
The voice was full of fear and nervousness.
Huo Guang held Mo Cai's arm and could feel the trembling trembling on his arm. He immediately comforted him: "Mo Cai, you don't need to be nervous. This general never kills innocent people indiscriminately, only those who are hostile."
"look!"
"In Yucheng City that I captured, I did not do any harm to the women, children, old and young people inside."
Meicai, who had always been flattering to the Han Dynasty court, also showed off his special skills at this time and complimented: "Yes, yes, the general is a benevolent and righteous man. Mecai first thanked the general for the women, children, old and young people in Yucheng City."
"Hey, there's no need to thank you. This general doesn't want this." Huo Guang said, then waved towards the soldiers.
immediately!
The soldier took something unknown wrapped in a piece of bloody cloth and threw it in front of Mo Cai.
Huo Guang continued at this time: "Just do something for me, General."
"You are a noble from the capital of Dawan, right?"
"so."
"Bring this thing to your King Wuwu and the other nobles in the capital to take a good look at it."
"It's that simple."
"Do you think it's okay?"
When Mocai saw the bloody cloth package, he roughly guessed what it was, but he still asked: "General, what is this?"
What?
Huo Guang smiled coldly and said: "King Yu Cheng's head!"
Hear the words.
Mocai immediately knelt down on the ground again, ready to burst into tears.
"General, you"
Before he finished speaking, Huo Guang could be heard staring straight at him. Without opening his mouth, he hummed from his throat and said, "Huh?"
moment.
The ignorant cry suddenly stopped. He glanced at Huo Guang secretly. When he saw the other person staring at him, he immediately lowered his head in fear, not daring to speak.
This kind of people are too common.
Huo Guang didn't bother to argue with this guy, and immediately told the soldiers: "Come two people and take Mr. Mo Cai back to the capital of Dawan."
"promise!"
then.
Then two soldiers came, one on the left and one on the right, and took Mocai away.
Along with it, there is the human head.
After handling these matters, Huo Guang took the rest of the army back to Yucheng City.
Don't look at the soldiers who only have less than 2,000 soldiers.
but!
There are currently only old, young, women and children in Yucheng City. These people dare not resist the Han soldiers.
certainly.
Huo Guang is not the Holy Mother.
Two thousand people have to consume food every day.
so.
Food had to be plundered from their homes. Yucheng City was much richer than Ershi City. After all, it was the capital of King Yucheng.
In addition to getting food and water.
Huo Guang also had to check the wounded and work with the city defense.
At this time, Huo Guang only had 2,000 elite soldiers left. If Wu Wu of Dayuan was a tyrant, he would definitely lead an army to attack Yu Chengcheng.
But Huo Guang expected that King Dawan could not be a tyrant.
Just because he didn't want to part with the horse of Dawan, he also beheaded the envoys of the Han Dynasty who were sent by the Han Dynasty to ask for horses with a lot of money. It was obvious that such a king was not only incompetent, but also a mediocre and mediocre king!
Just say that Chang'an is far away in the east, and Dawan is thousands of miles away!
Then you can't do things like this.
Other countries sent envoys to ask for horses with large sums of money. You have so many BMWs in Dawan, so you just need to match some.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t deserve it.
Just send the envoys of the Han Dynasty away politely.
You still have to humiliate him and then kill him. If I don’t hit you, who will I hit?
The Han Dynasty is now in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. If you slap Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the face, if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doesn't crush you to ashes, then he is not Liu Che!
After Huo Guang inspected the city defense again, a soldier came to report: "Report to the general, Li Guangli is clamoring to see you!"
"Li Guangli? Huh" Huo Guang couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and said: "Is this guy a traitor? He was caught between the two armies fighting and he didn't die. It's outrageous!"
曱甴.
That's the ancient name for cockroach.
have to say.
Li Guangli is indeed like a cockroach, surviving no matter what.
Thinking of this, Huo Guang smiled softly, shook his head, and said: "Let him come over, I want to see what this bastard has to say!"
"promise!"
With Huo Guang's permission, the soldiers took Li Guangli over.
As soon as Li Guangli saw Huo Guang, he yelled, "Huo Guang, you bastard, I am the general appointed by your Majesty to conquer the West, how dare you do this to me!"
Huo Guang said disdainfully: "Didn't I tell you that you were fucked when we were in Ershi City? Why do you still remember it?"
Hear the words.
Li Guangli was stunned, knowing that this could not be faked, so he could not talk to Huo Guang, so he changed the topic and said: "Huo Guang, the battle has been fought like this for you, and you have lost two thousand troops in vain. How dare you take over my position as general? Huh, After returning to Chang'an, I, Li Guangli, will definitely impeach you before Your Majesty!"
Is the war going to end like this?
Huo Guang laughed out loud when he said these words.
Why did the war end like this? Didn't he have any idea in his mind?
When the Han army first entered Ershi City, their morale was high and their strength was tens of thousands. Even if they continued to fight against Yucheng City, with the advantage of their firearms, the Han army should easily capture Yucheng City.
As a result, this guy ignored the favorable time and place and attacked in rainy weather, not to mention the advantage of firearms.
He also brought in the Western Expeditionary Army.
How could he have the nerve to say this?
See this.
Huo Guang immediately raised his eyebrows, glared at Li Guangli, and said, "Oh, in your opinion, how can four thousand soldiers and horses capture 30,000 Dawan elites without losing anything?"
He said it was a question, but he was actually mocking Li Guangli.
But Li Guangli is quite a dark person. It can be said that he can be compared with Huo Guang when he was young.
Just listen to Li Guangli say at this time: "In my opinion, this battle should not be fought in Yucheng City. Yucheng City is other people's place, and King Yu Cheng is more familiar with it than us. If he is not a little arrogant, how could he give it to You have a chance to win.”
When Huo Guang heard this, he frowned and said, "So you mean to fight those people in Ershi City?"
"Yes!" Li Guangli nodded immediately and said: "My Western Expeditionary Army has been stationed in Ershi City for many days and has already built an iron barrel for Ershi City. King Yu Cheng, let alone only 30,000 elites, gave him 30 Even with ten thousand elites, they can’t get in.”
Ershi City, a piece of iron barrel?
Ah!
Huo Guang didn't even bother to refute him in this regard. He just smiled coldly and said, "If they besiege you but don't attack, you will starve to death in Ershi City with a piece of iron barrel!"
However.
In response to this question, Li Guangli laughed and said: "Isn't it just food? Li has already prepared it."
"Oh? Reserve? When I was in Ershi City before, I saw that the soldiers were all sallow and thin. Where is your food? How come I never saw it!" Huo Guang asked directly.
The most serious problem in Ershi City at the beginning was food!
This was also the reason why Li Guangli immediately and secretly reported to His Majesty, using the excuses of tired soldiers and lack of food, in an attempt to withdraw to Chang'an.
However.
Now he vowed again that he had food?
Ha~
Huo Guang didn't believe it.
Li Guangli immediately said: "If you don't believe it, it doesn't mean that I don't have it. Let me tell you, the general said there is it. As for what the food is, let me tell you, Li only revealed two words, food person. If you can't figure out what it is. , hum, then you have to learn more."
Vegetarian?
At the mention of this, Huo Guang's frown deepened.
Why?
Because he knew that there was a poem in the Qing Dynasty called "Cai Ren's Sorrow" and he mentioned it.
Compared with "Cai Ren Ai".
All the miserable poems are just romantic.
At this moment, Huo Guang heard Li Guangli mention these two words again, and immediately frowned and said: "You mean, those Dawan people in the Second Division? Huh, Li Guangli, you really have no ability, but you have a heart that is better than that of a snake or a scorpion." A vicious heart!"
However.
Li Guangli said with dignity and dignity: "When we fight, we fight only those who have less benevolence, justice and morality."
"What about poison?"
"The Art of War written by Sun Wu is the most poisonous military book in ancient and modern times."
Hearing this, Huo Guang's disdain for Li Guangli has reached its peak. He has learned nothing about the formation of troops in the military book, the observation and study of the battlefield environment, and the judgment of the combat effectiveness and fighting will of the enemy and ourselves, etc.
Right.
Most incompetent people are like this.
Huo Guang was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he immediately waved his hand to the soldiers guarding him and said, "Get out."
"promise."
Of course, Li Guangli's matter was just an episode.
A few days later.
Huo Guang received news that nearly 10,000 troops from the four counties of Liangzhou had arrived at Ershi City, waiting for Huo Guang's demolition at any time.
After getting this news.
Huo Guang then realized that no wonder King Yu Cheng was so eager to attack the city. It turned out that reinforcements from the Han Dynasty had arrived.
His base camp, Yu Chengcheng, was stolen by Huo Guang again. Don't worry, just wait to be attacked from both sides!
"King Yu Cheng is also a character. Hmm, it's a pity that he doesn't know that these nearly 10,000 reinforcements have little combat effectiveness." Huo Guang shook his head and stood up from his seat.
If the troops lack training, it will be difficult to form combat effectiveness.
otherwise.
The two military camps in the north and south of Chang'an cost so much every year. What do they do for food?
"Pass my order to Zhao Daniu to select a few captains and go to Second Division City to train them, just like the training during the Nan Daying period." Huo Guang said unhurriedly.
"promise."
The soldiers took the order and retreated.
At this moment.
Another soldier came in and said: "Report to the general, the nobles from the capital of Dawan have come with Mo Cai and are asking for an audience outside the city gate."
"Oh? We're finally here!" Huo Guang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, sketching a confident smile, and said, "Okay, I will go out and meet them in person."
The words fell.
He led the soldiers and walked towards the city gate.
However, as soon as he went out, his expression suddenly changed, and there was a trace of sullenness in the corners of his eyes.
immediately.
He looked at the group of Dawan nobles in front of him coldly and said, "What do you mean? I asked Mocai to give you one head, and you brought two?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Is it possible that your king, who has no widows, still wants to continue the war with my big man?" (End of this chapter)
