Da Wei Chun

Chapter 378

How can there be undead in war?

It has been agreed in advance that although this time is a competition, the two sides will only treat it as an actual battle.Whoever loses more than [-]% in battle, just cut it off!

At this moment, the emperor suddenly stopped talking?

In a hurry, the two really couldn't guess whether the emperor was really shocked by Li Chengzhi's performance.Or do you want to make trouble because you see that Li Chengzhi is bound to lose?
The two looked at each other, and then looked at Gao Zhao at the same time, as if they were asking: Could it be that Li Chengzhi really prepared a powerful method, so that His Majesty's expression changed from shock?

Gao Zhao was both happy and angry.

The joy is that Li Chengzhi's victory is certain, and Yuan Yi will be seriously injured.Otherwise, the emperor would not let Yuan Ji admit defeat.

Angrily, Li Chengzhi even guarded against him: I gave the old man's conscience to the dog?

Although he cursed angrily in his heart, it was hard to say how angry Gao Zhao was.

Because Li Chengzhi is not only guarding against him, but also adding the emperor.

Otherwise, why did it take until the last moment to play the secret performance to the emperor?

It was clearly because he was afraid that the emperor would be worried about the heavy casualties of the tiger riders, so he informed Yuan Yi in advance and leaked his hole cards to Yuan Yi.

It's no wonder that Li Chengzhi didn't panic at all after hearing that the emperor agreed to Yuan Yi's secondment of Tiger Cavalry.Didn't show any look of arrogance and injustice?
It turned out that it had been predicted a long time ago: He could force the emperor to withdraw the tiger cavalry just by relying on a memorandum?
Thinking about it now, Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji almost lost their faces, and the act of transferring Yuan Yi to the Tiger Cavalry was just like a joke?
Gao Zhao suddenly became happy...

It has to be said that Gao Zhao is the only one who knows the emperor best, and Yuan Ke is really going to do this.

First, he secretly scolded Li Chengzhi several times as a rebellious minister, and felt that it didn't make sense, so the emperor scolded Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji again.

You still have the face to look at Gao Zhao, you look at a bird feather?

If I hadn't wanted to see how capable Li Chengzhi was, and how he would deal with the most powerful armored tiger cavalry in the world, why would I have lent the tiger cavalry, which belonged to the Central Army of the Ministry of War, to the Weifu? ?

You should keep Gao Zhao silent, but your heart is probably full of resentment, secretly resenting how unfair I have been to him.

It's ridiculous that these two idiots dared to boast before: the two armies are fighting each other according to their abilities.All means are available.Whether it is life or death, each has his own destiny... Why don't you open your eyes and see what kind of soldiers Yuan Yi is leading, and what kind of soldiers Li Chengzhi is leading?

Forgive me, even if you think about it, you can't imagine how sharp and vicious Li Chengzhi's methods are?Not only are you going to swell the faces of you two idiots, but you also want to press them on the ground and step on them a few times.

I have made it clear like this, but I am still obsessed with my obsession. How dare I stick my neck and yell "I don't agree" at me?
Alright, I'll let you take it easy...

The emperor's face turned cold, and he grabbed the piece of paper in his hand and clenched it into a ball.

"Liu Teng!"

"Chen is here!"

"You go in person and pass on my oral instructions to the two of you: tiger cavalry is a weapon for subduing the country, how can you fight to the death in vain? Order him to withdraw immediately, and then order Li Chengzhi to withdraw half of his troops. The two will each lead five hundred, and immediately start the battle ..."

After pondering for a while, the emperor yelled again: "Send it to Yuan Yi again: Li Chengzhi has a poisonous fire that can burn through iron armor, and can't be extinguished by splashing water. If he thinks he has no solution, he should admit defeat as soon as possible, so as not to waste the lives of soldiers." ..."

Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji's faces turned pale suddenly: Li Chengzhi really has a powerful method, a poisonous fire that can burn through iron armor and can't be extinguished by water.Your majesty is so scared that even the tiger riders are going to withdraw?

In this way, Yuan Yi's chances of winning have more than halved?
With a "buzz", it was like stabbing a hornet's nest, and the whole city let out a sound of gasping for air.

real or fake?

There are some strange things in the world, which are almost unheard of?

In amazement, nine of the ten courtiers turned their heads and subconsciously looked down the city.

Nearly a thousand soldiers of Li Chengzhi were still digging the ditch, which was already quite deep. There were scattered soil and wet mud being lifted up to the bank of the ditch, but no one could be seen.And it is quite long, about a hundred feet or so, in the shape of half a month, with thousands of horses and dozens of chariots behind it.

The dozen or so untarnished carriages were among them.If it is really poisonous fire, it must be hidden in the car...

Yuan Ji was like talking in his sleep, his voice was barely audible: "So... don't believe it..."

No wonder he didn't believe it: it's all right to burn through the iron armor, how can fire not be extinguished when it meets water?

When the principle of yin and yang and five elements, mutual generation and restraint for thousands of years is a decoration?
It's the same reason that people in later generations suddenly heard someone say "sows can climb trees"...

He originally said it to Yu Zhong, but the emperor heard it.Yuan Ke sneered and said, "But I believe it!"

……

Li Chengzhi smiled all over his face: "Please trouble the minister, and thank your majesty on behalf of the official: thank you, your majesty, for being considerate of this humble minister..."

Liu Teng stared at him sideways for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

Does that mean His Majesty is sympathetic to you?
It's obvious that you are scheming and dare to keep His Majesty in the dark.His Majesty was worried that the tiger cavalry would be damaged, so he had to withdraw it.

No wonder you know that His Majesty is turning his elbows towards Yuan Yi, and after seconding Yuan Yi as a tiger rider, you didn't even complain, so you are waiting here?
"Li Chengzhi, you are really good enough to even..."

Originally, he wanted to say "Even His Majesty dares to tease", but when the words came to his lips, he felt disrespectful, Liu Teng simply stopped talking, and just nodded him twice with his fingers.

"Your Majesty has ordered Yuan Yi to withdraw from the tiger cavalry. You don't want to be cheap and act good. It is reasonable to withdraw half of the soldiers immediately. Otherwise, you will win, and you will be sentenced to lose in the end..."

Li Chengzhi continued to smile at Mimi: "Don't worry, Siqing, it's only natural!"

Before leaving, Liu Teng seemed to have remembered something, stopped his horse and looked at Li Chengzhi.Although the tone is casual, but the expression is rare dignified:
"When you get old, you talk a lot, so don't be too noisy about me: I think it's better for you to accept it as soon as you see it..."

You dead eunuch, when did our relationship get so close?
The look is still so solemn... This is clearly the meaning of the emperor...

Although he still replied "Siqing, don't worry", Li Chengzhi cupped his hands towards the city wall.Liu Teng understood immediately, knowing that Li Chengzhi understood the hidden meaning, he stopped talking and urged Ma to go towards Yuan Yi's army formation.

Seeing Liu Teng go far away, Li Liang came up to him and said in admiration: "Your Majesty is really clever, the emperor really withdrew the tiger cavalry?"

Li Chengzhi sneered and laughed: "You really dare to boast, is this common sense?"

He licked his lips and looked at the hundreds of soldiers sitting on horses in the distance, his eyes gleaming: "Do you know how many people there are in the whole of Wei? There are 3000 million people in the entire Wei Dynasty? Not counting hermits, there are [-] million people. And the tiger cavalry only How much? Ten thousand will be...

This was not possible among the Han and Xianbei people, and they were picked up from the Gaoche, Xiongnu, Dingling, Rouran, and Lushuihu and other miscellaneous tribes who had surrendered.

And such a fierce soldier who is nearly seven feet tall (Wei Chi 29 cm) and can wear a hundred catties of heavy armor, even among tiger riders, there are only a thousand... It can be seen that one in a million is not enough to describe it.

Don't say that the emperor is as brazen as before, so what if he loses [-]% of the staff.But if he folded one, he would feel distressed to death.To put it bluntly: Yuan Yi is dead, what has he to do with the emperor?But if the tiger rider dies, he is really dead...

When I suddenly heard that your lord, I really have the means to injure tiger riders, the emperor was suspicious and didn't dare to bet.Why not withdraw them all?So I don't think from the beginning to the end, we will fight against the tiger cavalry... There is always a way to make the emperor take back his order...

If you still don't understand, just think about it, how many of us have such fierce soldiers?But if one dies, sir, I am afraid that I will have to fight with others desperately? "

How many do we have?
Li Liang really figured it out: Li Song, Li Zhang, Li Xian, plus Huangfu Rang...is it not enough to slap?

Just as he was terrified, he heard Li Chengzhi say: "The emperor told us to withdraw half of the soldiers, so we will withdraw. Anyway, the ditch is almost dug, and the soldiers can rest for a while... Well, remember to give the part that has been withdrawn every day." How many catties of meat are divided between people..."

Li Chengzhi deliberately chose places with dense forests and lush grass and soft soil.With sufficient manpower and ready tools, in less than an hour, a trench nearly a hundred feet long and one foot wide was dug out.

It looked a full foot deep, but in fact it was only less than four feet deep, and the outer six feet were all piled up with the excavated wet soil.

The long ditch is in the shape of a semicircle, and behind it is the mountain forest, which protects soldiers, horses, and chariots.Only a passage about ten feet wide was left in the middle for the cavalry to enter and exit.If the enemy attacks, they will be blocked with cars.

At this time, the bottom of the ditch was filled with water, so it would take a lot of effort to dig deep, and it was unnecessary.I dare not say that it is solid, but Li Chengzhi believes that it is more than enough to guard against Yuan Yi.

Li Liang responded with a solemn voice, ordered Li Rui to give the order, and hundreds of soldiers climbed onto the bank of the ditch.Hearing several shouts from Li Cong, dozens of fire-headed soldiers brought large baskets and water urns to distribute food to the soldiers.

Meatloaf broth is enough, in addition, each person has a bowl of water and wine.

How can they eat like this in normal times, even the imperial army, they can only see a meal of meat in three to five days, and can only eat a meal of rice and white noodles in ten and a half months.

There was a burst of cheers from under the forest...

Yuan Yi was anxious and angry.

Just because of Li Chengzhi's intimidating words, His Majesty is going to withdraw the tiger rider?
Why is the emperor acting like an idiot, just relying on the word "poisonous fire" to regard Li Chengzhi as a scourge?

He said yes?
If there is, how should he activate it?

You don't see half-driven catapults, and you don't see half-driven crossbows, so let people shoot?
How far can you shoot?

Cursing inwardly, when he suddenly heard cheers in the distance, Yuan Yi glanced around and almost turned his nose in anger.

He raised his hand and pointed, and asked in a hateful voice: "Dare to ask Si Qing, where is Li Chengzhi's poison?"

Liu Teng suddenly turned his head and looked intently: about [-] soldiers were withdrawing, perhaps because they were afraid of soiling their armor, they were all shirtless and barefoot, and their bodies were covered with mud.And the armors were all piled up on the dozens of carriages accompanying them.

That's all, there are three or four driving as if they are pulling meat.Taking a closer look, the soldiers were actually holding food in their hands. Are you happy to eat?
Looking back, the dozens of carriages covered with tarpaulins had been emptied, and the remaining soldiers were holding wine bowls and gnawing on their bones, their mouths reaching to their ears...

Thinking about it carefully, half of Li Chengzhi's dozens of vehicles were loaded with ditch-digging shovels and other things, and the other half... was actually food?
This really didn't take Yuan Yi seriously, but the question is, what about the poisonous fire he has with His Majesty?

But to say that Li Chengzhi dared to deceive the king...it is absolutely impossible!
Liu Teng's heart moved, and he stared at Yuan Yi coldly: "For the sake of Duke Wei and King Jiangyang, I would like to remind you: Li Chengzhi is proud of his talent and thinks highly of himself, but his heart is like the eye of a needle, and he must be punished. Therefore, if he said he wanted to burn you with fire, he would definitely burn you.

Such contempt for you at this time is probably a trick to lure the enemy.If you are careless, you will definitely lose... let me say this, so I can do it myself..."

Good for yourself?

Looking at the back of Liu Teng riding away on horseback, Yuan Yi trembled angrily.

Thought I wouldn't dare to fight this battle without Tiger Cavalry?
Don't forget, grandpa still has a hundred armored vehicles...

He turned his head and glanced coldly at the mountain: Li Chengzhi, you know how to use fire, why don't you think I can't?

You want me to surrender without a fight, is it just a dream?
"Even if Li Chengzhi is really poisonous, even if the tiger riders are withdrawn, don't panic. The five hundred soldiers are divided into three parts: two hundred for chariots, two hundred for horses, and one hundred for the Chinese army to guard the flag." ...

Still act according to the original plan: but listen to the sound of the drum on the city, and send out the cavalry first to cut off the back road, pretending to attack the real siege.

Then the armored chariot was ordered to press forward, and stood thirty paces outside Li Chengzhi's formation. All the soldiers got out of the chariot, hid behind the chariot, and then shot with short crossbows.Remember: order the soldiers to prepare more rockets, if it can ignite the forest, it would be best..."

Russell breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the emperor is so careful, it can be seen that Li Chengzhi's poisonous fire is definitely not groundless.

He was really afraid that Yuan Yi's head would get hot, and he would let the cavalry and the armored chariot charge forward regardless, and fell into Li Chengzhi's trick to lure the enemy.

But Xu Shi was stunned by Liu Teng. Although Yuan Yi's face was darkened by anger, he could still hold his breath, which is really rare.

On the battlefield, there is no saying that methods are not stupid, and tactics are not rigid.As long as the goal can be achieved, it is a miracle.Even Russell felt that the best policy is to take steps at every step.

As long as the chariot soldiers hide behind the chariot, relying on the strength of the armored chariot, it is really poisonous fire, at most it will burn a few chariots and a few horses to death.

As long as the iron cavalry cuts off the back road, but there is a good opportunity, the cavalry can be dismounted, form an armored infantry formation, encircle with the chariot soldiers, and give Li Chengzhi a fatal blow.

It would be even better if it could ignite the forest behind Haogou.If Li Chengzhi wants to survive, the only way is to escape from the ditch. Will he not be driven by iron cavalry and armored chariots?

For a while, even Russell couldn't think of a more secure strategy than this.

He bowed down and replied in a solemn voice: "The last general obeys the order!"

……

Not to mention Liu Teng, even the emperor and all the ministers thought that Li Chengzhi was so unscrupulous that he was clearly trying to trick Yuan Yi into being fooled.

Will Yuan Yi be fooled?
The emperor was really uncertain.

He's just a prince, and he has no talent or reputation, so he's not worthy of the emperor's attention.However, I know that Yuan Yi has been punished twice for extorting bribes and robbing civilian women for corruption.It's not a good thing, and it's not very wise when you think about it.

Looking at Li Chengzhi again, his heart is almost overflowing from his stomach...

Yuan Ke's heart moved: Didn't Li Chengzhi say that soldiers have impermanence and water has an impermanence?
Well, I'll change the situation and see how you deal with it?
　I will guard against it in the next chapter, and it will be corrected in at most 10 minutes!
