534. Chapter 534 Liangzhou Liwei
Liangzhou has been a place that must be fought for by military strategists since ancient times, but the prosperous scenery of the past is now spreading. Shi Xiong, the governor of Shannan West Road, guarded Liangzhou for more than ten months and has reached the verge of being able to break the city at any time. Nanzhao 15th
Wan Dajun attacked and caught Shi Xiong off guard, so that his army could not be dispatched in time. Nanzhao's army defeated each of them. Nearly 100,000 troops in Shannan West Road are now only 20,000 left to defend Liangzhou.
When Shi Xiong learned that the court wanted to send 100,000 troops to rush for assistance, the soldiers were excited. Shi Xiong led the 20,000 soldiers under his command had been waiting for the arrival of the reinforcements of the court. But what disappointed Shi Xiong and even the military and civilians of Liangzhou was that Chen Hao, as the commander-in-chief,
But he did not lead the army behind him, which made Shi Xiong's hope that had been waiting for many days dark again at this moment.
According to his Malay newspaper, the court's 100,000 reinforcements had arrived fifty miles away yesterday evening, but now he only saw more than 100 cavalry of Chen Hao, but he did not see the big army. This situation made Shi Xiong very disgusted
untie.
After Chen Hao's explanation, Shi Xiong learned the reason why the 100,000 troops had not arrived in Liangzhou and disappeared overnight. Although Shi Xiong was dissatisfied with Chen Hao's arrangement, he did not say it bluntly.
, After all, the coach this time is Chen Hao, not him.
On the city tower of Liangzhou City, Chen Hao looked at the military camp tent that stretched for several miles not far away, with a slightly solemn look in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up. Chen Hao knew very well at this moment that as the head coach, he must not be there.
The soldiers showed a look of worry. The 150,000 troops in Nanzhao outside Liangzhou City were arranged in an orderly manner. Although they had experienced several months of war, they did not seem to have made the elite troops of Nanzhao feel tired.
"It turns out that these elite soldiers of a hundred battles are more than twice as powerful as those under the command of the governors of the Tang Dynasty..."
At this moment, Chen Hao was not the only one standing on the city tower. Behind him, there were a group of deputy generals, besides Shi Xiong, the governor of Shannan West Road. However, Chen Hao did not hide his feelings at all, and praised the Nanzhao army outside the city.
Chen Hao's words made the generals behind him look ashamed. The middle-aged general in charge had a beard and his thick and dark skin showed that this person had experienced wind and frost. This person was Shi Xiong, and he pressed his penis with his hands.
Jian stood behind Chen Hao, looking at the Nanzhao military camp outside the city, but said solemnly: "What the general said is true. The last general once thought that the entire Jiannan Road was lost, which is An, Yan, and Gao.
But at these days, I will guard Liangzhou City with my fellow comrades. After several confrontations with the enemy, I realized what Yelang is arrogant. I will be ashamed of his soldiers under my command!”
Shi Xiong was able to admit this fact, which made Chen Hao look at him with admiration. It is easy for a person to see and point out other people's shortcomings. But if he could see his own shortcomings and admit it calmly, it would not be possible.
Not to mention it is a kind of spirit and mind.
"The governors of each town only know how to compete for fame and fortune to support their own troops, and only care about rebelling in their own homes, but they do not know that the troops they are under their command are far behind foreign enemies! It's just that cavalry lost to Tubo, but now they are just a few
The soldiers of Nanzhao were unable to compete!" Chen Hao said this, but he turned around and frowned and said angrily: "Is this the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty that galloped across the Northern Desert and annihilated the Turks??"
Chen Hao rebuked in person, and the general was blushed in public and bowed his head without saying a word. However, a young general on the side refuted: "Although what the general said is reasonable, the last general thinks that the general is generalized by the side!"
"Shut up! Go back!" Before Chen Hao could speak, Shi Xiong glared and scolded the young general to retreat.
The young general had a good face, and a wisp of beard was added to his fair face. Chen Hao glanced at the general. Seeing that the man looked dissatisfied, he smiled at Shi Xiong and said, "I'm a silly man."
If the handsome man did not admit his mistake, this person should be General Shi’s son Shi Zhong!”
"Oh? The handsome man recognizes the dog son!" Shi Xiong has always given people a calm look, but he was shocked at this moment. Not only Shi Xiong was surprised, but even Shi Zhong, who was white and bearded, was a little shocked.
"That's natural. I have heard of the name of the Major General, and I also met the Major General in the capital..."
Chen Hao's words were not boastful. When Shi Xiong was the governor of Heyang, Chen Hao heard that Shi Xiong's son Shi Zhong was extremely brave and brave enough to be unstoppable. Later, he met during the Three Kingdoms competition in the capital.
After Shi Zhong's side, Shi Zhong was seriously injured and fainted by the Bohai strongman He Chiwen, so Shi Zhong didn't know what happened next.
After Chen Hao reminded him, Shi Zhong suddenly remembered the battle in the capital three years ago, and then his face became ashamed and said: "Shame, I will be the last one..."
"Hey, the Major General doesn't have to worry about it. So what if you defeated Hechiwen back then? I believe General Shi has taught you that even if you are the bravest army in the world, you are just a man after all. You can defeat this city alone.
Are there 150,000 enemy troops?"
"What the Grand Marshal taught me is that what the Grand Marshal said just now is indeed a generalization. Now, the governors of the court have their own troops and do not listen to the orders of the court. However, my Shi family father and son have always been loyal to the court and are ready to wait for the orders of the court to be dispatched.
!The current situation is not our fault, but it is because of limited military strength that cannot support the overall situation!" Seeing that Chen Hao was not as strict as his father, Shi Zhong raised his courage and said.
Shi Zhong's words calmed everyone present. Chen Hao looked around and finally turned his eyes to Shi Xiong: "Do you have the same idea..."
Shi Xiong stroked his beard lightly, pondered for a moment, and finally said solemnly: "Master, I am not sure about it. Nearly 20,000 soldiers in Liangzhou City have been exhausted in defending the city for several days. Although the strategy used by the Master is unknown, the last general is not aware of it.
The overall situation, but it is also expected that the general will not be aimless. However, with less than 20,000 remaining soldiers in the city, if they want to defend Liangzhou City for half a month, I am afraid..." Shi Xiong did not want to argue too much on this issue, but talked about the current situation
.
As soon as this was said, the generals and officials behind them nodded and said yes. Although they didn't know what strategy Chen Hao used, the 100,000 troops who came to rush to rescue disappeared for no reason. This is what they care most about because there is no large army.
How should they defend Liangzhou City when they rushed to help? Therefore, the generals and officials were very dissatisfied with Chen Hao in this matter.
Only more than 100 cavalrymen came to Liangzhou for assistance. Do you really think that Liangzhou is the back garden of your marquis' mansion, and more than 100 people can defeat the enemy and win? If this is true, then you still need these 20,000 soldiers.
What to do, go home and farm and have children. These words have always been hidden in the hearts of the generals, but because Chen Hao is the commander of the three armies, he has always endured it.
Chen Hao saw all the generals' expressions, and he also knew that these soldiers fighting on the front line were very dissatisfied with him. On the battlefield, if you want to gain the respect of others in the army, you must have real military achievements.
.Although Chen Hao won the military recognition of Hebei and Hedong in the pacification of the three towns of Heshuo, although he was afraid of the Jiangnan roads, he did not place Chen Hao at such a high position. Besides, Chen Hao was so young
, for these generals who rely on military merits to fight, they are inevitably a little dissatisfied.
Chen Hao did not argue too much about the doubts and dissatisfaction of the generals. Because Chen Hao always believed in a creed throughout his life that face was not given by others, but earned by himself.
At this time, another wave of siege formations of the Nanzhao army had gathered and were rushing towards Liangzhou City. Chen Hao looked up and showed a smile, so he said to Shi Xiong: "The enemy's siege is coming,
General Shi organized the city defense affairs. This general was not good to send to you all the generals when he was just arriving. At this moment, the enemy army in Nanzhao attacked the city. Then he took down the head of the enemy's vanguard Duan Baolong and gave it to you all.
The general’s meeting gift!”
As he spoke, he ignored everyone's astonishment and then said in a deep voice: "Tiangang, where is the Earth Demon?"
"I'm here!"
"I ordered you and the other two to lead the eighteen cavalry, the thirty-six heavenly gangs, and the seventy-two earthly evil spirits to take down the enemy's vanguard's head for me! If you can't, you don't need to go back to the city!"
"I will not return to the city unless I take the head of the enemy general!" The two of them said and turned around and got off the top of the city.
The generals watched the two men go downstairs, and their faces were more suspicious. Although the enemy's front vanguard had only 10,000 troops, only one hundred and twenty-six people could be captured in the army.
The head of the enemy general? This is too whimsical. Do you really think that the enemy outside the city is a piece of paper?
"Master, this matter..."
As the governor of a town, Shi Xiong naturally thought more profound than other generals. How could he not see that Chen Hao was trying to establish his authority? But Shi Xiong felt that this kind of authority was a bit whimsical. Although he could feel it, he followed Chen.
The 126 cavalrymen who came from the vast world were all not simple. But even so, it would be a fantasy to take the enemy's vanguard's head.
However, Shi Xiong had not said anything yet, but was interrupted by Chen Hao, "Send the order and close the city gate immediately after they leave the city. If they cannot kill the enemy vanguard, then let them die in the chaos!
”
Shi Xiong originally wanted to persuade him, but when he saw Chen Hao's sharp expression, he swallowed the words back. After claiming that he was, he led the generals to deploy defense to defend the city. However, in the eyes of the generals, the hundred under Chen Hao's command were
Twenty-six black-clad cavalry are already dead...
The breeze passed by with a slight smell of blood. Chen Hao narrowed his eyes and looked at the oncoming Nanzhao army, but his heart was extremely calm at this moment. Perhaps everyone was not optimistic about the 126 cavalry under his command.
But Chen Hao had great confidence. It would be a fantasy to say that the entire vanguard army of Nanzhao was completely wiped out, but if the ten thousand horses were able to obtain the head of the vanguard general, Chen Hao believed that this matter was not impossible.
