"Emperor Yuanwu really passed away."

White flags are erected because someone has died. Who deserves such condolences? Only Emperor Wu of Liang, Zhu Wen!

Guan Ning was silent.

For him, this happened suddenly. After a battle, Emperor Wu of Liang died.

How could he die?

First of all, it is ruled out that the deadline is approaching and Zhu Wenke has not yet reached the age of old age...

Could it be that he was angry to death from Zhu Zhen?

This is probably the reason.

Zhu Wen did not allow him to leave the city to attack, but Zhu Zhen got carried away and insisted on leaving the city. As a result, he suffered a major defeat. This was the second time.

After tripping over the same stone twice, Zhu Wen naturally knew what the consequences of this defeat would be, and he was furious for a moment.

Zhu Zhen ascended the throne as he wished and fled immediately.

This is probably the plot.

After a while, Guan Ning let out a long sigh.

Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, Zhu Wen, had been famous in the mainland for a long time and achieved the resurgence of Liang Wu. It is really sad that he passed away now.

What a cheat!

Guan Ning gave Zhu Zhen a new name.

Liang Jun began to retreat, but it did not appear to be chaotic when entering the city. There were troops to resist, and then they retreated slowly. The generals under their command were very capable.

But they have already been defeated, and there is no chance of retreating.

Guan Ning couldn't understand why Zhu Zhen didn't have the courage to risk everything at this critical moment?

The mournful soldiers will surely win!

He put Zhu Zhen's coffin there to see if Liang Jun would fight hard?

Are you afraid that you don’t dare?

Now I am thinking of returning to Beijing as soon as possible to ascend the throne.

Guan Ning thought a lot in a flash, and it seemed that the plan was about to change.

"According to my decree, you don't need to be too aggressive in pursuing the enemy. If you encounter strong resistance, you can slow down appropriately."

"Your Majesty, shouldn't we beat the drowned dog at this time?"

The general beside Guan Ning said: "The commander-in-chief has given the order to send the Zhenbei Army to pursue the south city gate."

"When Emperor Wu of Liang passed away, we must be on guard against mourning and the troops will surely win."

Guan Ning said: "It's almost enough to send someone to report it. If the coffin of Emperor Liang Wu is really snatched away, do you think Liang Jun will fight hard?"

The generals nodded.

This possibility is not impossible.

Our own side has already won, and the loss of troops is not small, causing a rebound that will outweigh the gain.

They didn't know that Guan Ning actually had other considerations.

Emperor Wu of Liang died outside, and it was quite miserable to be carried away in a hurry. Guan Ning wanted to give him some dignity.

Of course, there is another most important reason, he wants to put Zhu Zhen back.

Both major defeats were caused by his impulsiveness, leaving countless wounded soldiers to flee. Although he ascended the throne and became emperor, he would lose his prestige as a result.

He is not easy to be an emperor, and the mess after failure is the most difficult to clean up.

The strategic goal has been achieved, killing people with a dull knife is the most annoying thing.

Guan Ning decided on a two-word strategy, which was to kill...

"quick!"

"Follow up!"

"Hurry up!"

Fan Cang urged loudly in the team. His Highness had already escorted the coffin and left first. He stayed to direct the army to retreat.

As he expected, the Dingbian army could not resist for long. Daning's army had already entered the city. He set up a defense line in the city and tried to let more troops leave.

The army was defeated like a mountain!

He had experienced this kind of scene not long ago. What he didn't expect was that less than a month later, he would experience it again, even worse than the last time.

The soldiers also became numb.

"General, the enemy has entered the city. It is too late to set up white flags again."

A general came to report.

Fan Cang looked around and saw that time was running out but he stood up a lot.

"That's enough."

He then ordered: "Find white cloths and distribute them to the soldiers. Each person must have one wrapped around his arm, and then the news of His Majesty's death will be announced to the whole army."

"General, I'm sorry to say this bluntly, but it's too late to escape now. It's a waste of time to do this. If the news of His Majesty's death spreads, I'm afraid morale will be even lower."

"The enemy cavalry has been chasing and killing them outside the city."

What the general said was true, but Fan Cang scolded him.

"Do you understand what mourning soldiers must win? If the enemy goes to pursue you, if they snatch His Majesty's coffin, will you see if the soldiers fight with all their might?"

The general suddenly understood.

Fan Cang still didn't say anything. If it weren't for this, who would have stayed behind to protect the army's retreat?

What they are protecting is not the army, but the coffin of the late emperor.

Fan Cang was not speaking out of anger, he really wished that the enemy army could snatch the coffin of the late emperor, so that he would have to fight the enemy army to the death and fight at all costs.

His arrangement is certainly effective.

An army that rises up and resists with grief and indignation under duress often wins the victory.

This change was obvious. When the news of the late emperor's death spread among the army, Liang Jun immediately became different.

The soldiers who stayed behind to stop the enemy fought bravely. As Fan Cang said, their purpose was not to retreat the army, but to protect the late emperor's coffin!

If the emperor dies and cannot protect his coffin, then what kind of soldier is he?

However, Guan Ning had already predicted it and would not be too radical. This kind of outbreak can only be maintained for now...

After Guan Ning deliberately released the water, Liang Jun successfully evacuated, but it was not smooth.

"Instruct Liu Changhong and Ji Mu to lead the deployment and pursue the enemy. They must not be radical and do not let them go. They must not let them live in peace. They must look for opportunities to injure the enemy and cause as many casualties as possible to the enemy!"

Guan Ning gave the order.

Of course he would not let go of this opportunity. Xu Tuzhi kept using it up to inflict trauma on Liang Jun. He wanted to make Liang Jun unable to stand up and no longer have the ability to launch a war!

After sending out troops to pursue, the army began to enter Ba City.

The city changed hands several times and returned to Daning's hands.

"From now on, the city will always belong to Daning!"

Guan Ning told the generals, and they all believed this.

"Your Majesty, the enemy troops have fled and our troops have gone to pursue them. There are still small-scale battles in the city. The city is under our control."

After a while, General Zhang Li came to report.

"Are there any prisoners of war?"

"have!"

Zhang Li opened his mouth and said: "There are still many prisoners. Seeing the withdrawal of the army, they gave up resistance and surrendered."

"There are a lot of wounded, right?"

"a lot of!"

Zhang Li said solemnly: "The scale of this war is too great. Although it lasted only a short time, it caused huge casualties, including many in our army."

"Intensify treatment!"

Guan Ning said: "We must do our best to treat Liang Jun's wounded, give the dead a generous burial, and treat prisoners preferentially. We must treat our soldiers equally!"

Hearing this, Zhang Li was a little confused: "We rescued a large number of Liang troops in the battle of Daze City, but now..."

"Didn't you hear what I said? And you can't discount it."

Guan Ning said: "Their new king abandoned them and left. I will rescue them. From now on, we must win the hearts of the people and prepare for the true elimination of Daliang in the future. The hatred caused by the war needs to be eliminated."

"yes!"

After hearing this, everyone understood that His Majesty had such long-term considerations.

"By the way, go and get my princess into the city."
