I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 514 Chasing the enemy and starting a war

The 300,000 Ming troops in Haozhou came out in full force!

The army is like a torrent, rushing towards the south!

"quick!"

"Faster!"

"Don't let Fan Li run away!"

Prince Wanli became more and more excited as he chased after him.

Only a dozen miles outside the city, I could already see things discarded by the Jin army everywhere.

Flags, tents, antler fences, and even battle maps that only generals can use? !
It seems that in order to escape from the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, the Jin army abandoned all their luggage except weapons and armor?
When Gao Gong and others saw this, they also sighed in their hearts.

"Sure enough, Mr. Xu Ge won a great victory, and the Jin army was frightened!"

at last!

Within the southern border of the Ming Dynasty, Prince Wanli successfully intercepted Fan Li's army!
At this moment, Fan Li stopped wearing a mask and pretended to be mysterious.

He directly showed his true face to others, which made Zhang Juzhao in the Ming army feel emotional.

"Ten years ago, Fan Li was already a very popular minister in Da Chu."

"His Majesty has also recruited him several times, and even promised to join the cabinet. I think that my talents are not inferior to Fan Li's, and I was once jealous."

"Ten years later, Fan Li has established his country and is said to be a lonely man."

"Although I have entered the cabinet, the officials below will call me 'Xiang Zhang' when they see me. But with Yan Song and Teacher Xu above my head, I am still just a make-up role, and I can't display my ideals and ambitions."

"Ugh……"

Zhang Juzheng sighed again and looked at Fan Li with extremely complicated eyes.

Among the four cabinet ministers present, Chen Yiqin, in addition to practicing Confucianism, also practiced talismans and seal scripts.

He cast the [Magic Talisman] for the entire army, so that the Ming army could successfully intercept the Jin army.

"Fan Li!"

"Really you?"

Prince Wanli's voice was loud and clear, showing the arrogance of a winner.

"You didn't expect it, did you? The battlefield is changing rapidly. Yesterday you were still attacking the city, but today you want to escape with your tail between your legs?"

"Unfortunately, you are not allowed to come and leave whenever you want, Ming Dynasty!"

The Jin army, which had taken a defensive posture, loosened its formation slightly and made way for a passage.

Fan Li rode his horse to the front of the army, smiled and responded loudly: "Should I call you Emperor Jie of Xia, or Prince Wanli?"

"Humph!"

A murderous intent flashed in Prince Wanli's eyes.

"A clever tongue cannot change the situation where you will die today."

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with Fan Li, and immediately ordered the entire army to charge and kill him, and he even wanted to behead Fan Li himself.

However, Zhang Juzheng suddenly realized something was wrong.

"His Royal Highness."

"Ok?"

"You see, the number of Jin troops is obviously much smaller than when they attacked the city. Please be careful, Prince, and beware of fraud."

It is indeed as Zhang Juzheng said.

The total number of Jin troops was 400,000. Even if they attacked the city for several days, the offensive was not fierce and they only lost a few thousand people.

But at present, the number of Jin troops does not exceed 300,000 at most. How to explain this?

"Perhaps he arranged an ambush?" Gao Gong also discovered that there was a problem with the number of enemy troops.

"ambush?"

Prince Wanli frowned at first, then sneered and shook his head.

"It was clear that the Jin army fled in a hurry. Some soldiers were scattered in the mountains and forests and failed to follow the larger army."

This explanation is not bad.

Since ancient times, armies have been defeated, and the number of fleeing soldiers is not a small number, even more than those who died in direct battle.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince must not underestimate the enemy."

Gao Gong is thoughtful and not as proud as Wanli.

He wanted to remind Wanli to be more cautious, but what he said was extremely harsh.

"Your Highness, please don't forget that you were defeated by Fan Li once. How could you know that today was not Fan Li's plan?"

Zhang Juzheng shook his head repeatedly after hearing this.

In terms of talent, Gao Huzhu may not be below Xu's level, but his character flaws are too obvious.

Even magnanimous people can't stand his mouth, let alone Prince Wanli, who has a strong self-esteem?
really.

Prince Wanli's expression changed again and again, and it took him a lot of strength to barely resist falling out with Gao Gong.

"ambush?"

"joke!"

"Are we stepping on the land of the Ming Dynasty or the land of the Jin Kingdom?"

"The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were fighting in their own country and were ambushed by the enemy?"

"Master Gao, do you want to say that the southern part of the Ming Dynasty has fallen, and only half of the country in the north is left?"

This hat is too big and no one dares to accept it, including Gao Gong.

"Your Highness, that's not what I meant, I..." Gao Gong's face turned red.

Prince Wanli waved his hand, not giving him a chance to continue explaining. "Shut up, you bastards."

"The whole army, prepare to charge and kill."

Gao Qian’s face turned even redder!

After all, he was a first-grade cabinet minister, but he became what the prince called an 'idle person'?
For a moment, Gao Gong even doubted himself. Was it a wrong choice to be loyal to Prince Wanli?

However, if you are not loyal to Wanli, how can you be loyal to His Majesty?
In the eyes of His Majesty, there is only one Mr. Yan Ge, and at most one Mr. Xu Ge. He really does not have a high-profile position.

"Lingjia Gong!"

The prince gave an order, and nearly 300,000 soldiers of the Ming army began to use their martial arts at the same time.

The spiritual energy protects the body, the light shines brightly in the sky, and it looks very majestic!

Fan Li shook his head when he saw this.

These are all leftover from Hu Zongxian's play.

Even the lowest-ranking soldiers of the Jin army began to practice the improved version of [Dragon Scale Kung Fu], while the Ming army soldiers still only practiced [Spirit Armor Kung Fu].

It can be seen that in the past ten years, the Ming court did not put serious effort into military training.

"Huang Aiqing, continue to command the army, and hold off the four Mahayana realms on the opposite side for me."

Fan Li gave some instructions to the people around him.

Huang Longshi nodded repeatedly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I all understand."

"it is good."

Fan Li patted Huang Longshi on the shoulder, but what he did next was unexpected.

Did he break away from the army and fly south alone?
"Not good!" Prince Wanli shouted: "He left 300,000 Jin troops as a shield and escaped alone?!"

With that said, Wanli also flew to chase him.

"Your Highness! What should we do with the army?" Gao Gong shouted hurriedly.

Wanli had flown far away, but the sound finally came back from afar.

"Zhang Juzheng temporarily takes command of the army and annihilates the enemy in front of him."

"This prince wants to kill Fan Li with my own hands!"

On the border of the Ming Dynasty, the soldiers of the two armies looked at each other from a distance.

Huang Longshi was calm and indifferent, but Zhang Juzheng and others frowned.

How could this happen?

The commanders of the two armies left the battlefield one after another. How could there be such a war?

"Master Zhang, what should we do now?" Chen Yiqin asked in a low voice.

Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and guessed Wanli's thoughts.

Both sides have the same military strength, but the Ming army has five Mahayana warriors, and its strength can be described as crushing.

But Wanli left all four of them behind and pursued Fan Li alone because he wanted to monopolize the great achievements.

After all, Fan Li's current identity is the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty.

Whether captured alive or beheaded, Prince Wanli will become the number one hero of the Jiajing Dynasty.

People are so selfish.

"Get ready for war."

After Zhang Juzheng finished speaking, he jumped up to the front of the army.

He looked at Huang Longshi with some sympathy and persuaded: "You are the only one who is strong in the Mahayana realm of the Jin army? With one against four, don't you feel that the mantis is like a chariot? If you are willing to surrender, I will definitely recommend it to your majesty and let you serve in the Ming Dynasty. Be an official."

At some point, Huang Longshi had a chessboard in his hand.

While fiddling with the chess pieces, he muttered in reply: "There is no need to persuade him to surrender. You will definitely lose this battle. If you have the chance to escape back, think about how to explain the reason for the defeat to Emperor Jiajing."

After Huang Longshi finished speaking, something strange suddenly appeared!

There are nineteen vertical and horizontal rays of light, like a stroke of magic, dividing the earth into a chessboard.

The nearly 600,000 troops on both sides have become pawns on the chessboard.

"This is after I entered the Mahayana realm, I understood the Danzhu chess game and realized my own chess game [the way of the world]."

Zhang Juzheng frowned when he heard this.

"[Human Way]?"

"It sounds powerful, but the tricks of chess are nothing more than formations that give you more advantages at the right time and place."

"You are only one person after all, and you want to fight one against four?"

"joke!"

After Zhang Juzheng finished speaking, he casually took out a writing brush filled with spiritual energy, which was obviously a very high-grade spiritual treasure.

He waved his brush and wrote in the air, and ink marks appeared in the sky.

"It's as fast as the wind!"

"Qixu Rulin!"

"Invading like fire!"

"Unmoving as a mountain!"

A total of sixteen words condensed and formed in the sky, and then turned into stars and merged into the bodies of hundreds of thousands of Ming army soldiers.

Huang Longshi frowned when he saw this and said, "Do you follow your words?"

He was originally a Confucian scholar from Lucheng. He did not have much achievements in Confucianism and Taoism, but he also had extraordinary knowledge. It can be seen at a glance that Zhang Juzheng's methods are indeed superb, not inferior to his own in the slightest!
The Ming army's [Spiritual Armor Skill] was not as good as the Jin army's [Dragon Scale Skill], but Zhang Juzheng just showed off his skills, which definitely made up for the gap between the two sides, or even exceeded it.

"Fortunately, I'm not alone." Huang Longshi thought to himself.

A little less. I was supposed to take leave today because I vomited frequently, but I have taken more leave recently, so I made do with writing.
