Bad people: who is not a descendant of Li Tang

Chapter 268 The Bad Guy

Among the flying sand and gravel, a broken corner of the flag was rolled up in it, and was blown away by the howling autumn wind.

There were still some open areas with tree shades and fields, but today, they have long been wiped out.All the green shades that blocked the view were cut down, and the grass stems that were still a little green were trampled until they were exposed to the loess.

There was a black cloak behind Li Jing, which completely covered the horse's buttocks as he sat down with the wind.The black horse Xiaobai also became particularly quiet following his master's mood. He gently scratched the horse's hooves and dug out some pieces of the loess under his feet.

Far away on the opposite side, there were also several riders who climbed up a high slope and were directing and talking to Li Jing. The man with disheveled hair who was surrounded by them looked at each other from a distance.

"Li Cunxu is so brave! Even if the Holy Spirit is here, he dares to go out of the city to see far away!"

Li Jing was covering his eyes and carefully looking at the messy battlefield. Chu Shan's rough voice came from behind him, and he seemed to want to seize the horse and kill Li Cunxu.

There were other generals laughing next to him, and Li Jing just smiled indifferently and glanced at the high slope in the distance opposite.

He could feel Li Cunxu staring at him.

Around Li Jing, there were various generals riding horses, as well as Feng Dao and other civil servants.Zhang Zifan stayed in Luoyang and was not included in this list.

The empress was also dressed in military uniform, riding a white horse slightly behind Li Jing by half a body.

The strong winds and sand and gravel in the past two days were not suitable for the two armies to fight, so Li Jing was able to bring these few generals out to see the situation on the other side.

Behind the high slope on the opposite side is a huge city whose walls have been damaged for a long time. The moat below it has been completely filled in. It seems that the city is about to be destroyed with just one step.

But everyone in the Tang army knew how difficult it was to get in with this kick.

It has been half a month since Tang Jun was blocked outside the city of Zhengzhou. Turning over to Bianzhou, Zhu Liang, a cripple who was already dying, could be completely ended immediately.

This is Zhengzhou, it’s really hard to beat!

Li Jing was a little angry. The main force of the Jin army was basically fighting against the Tang army. The Liang army could only defend the city to help in the battle. But just like that, nearly ten thousand Tang soldiers were dragged to death.

The other armies of the Eastern Expedition also made slow progress, and there was a sense of decline that the offensive was weak.

The Jin army was good at field battles. Although the Liang army and horses were of little use, it was still a headache to defend a city under Wang Yanzhang's command.

All the generals behind them laughed for a while, seeing that Li Jing didn't look relaxed, their voices gradually became quieter.

Today, Li Jing's power is getting stronger and stronger, and no one dares to touch this dragon's beard.

Perhaps Li Jing herself didn't feel it. Since she ascended the throne, she has become less and less like a modern person.

The empress could imagine what Li Jing was worried about. It was already the end of October, and winter would come if it dragged on any longer. The army in front was overwhelming and invincible. Suddenly, he was stuck in front of the last step. Who else would be so confused, not to mention the losses. So many soldiers.

However, Li Cunxu was a veteran general and had an unusually unique strategic vision. Together with Wang Yanzhang, a battle-hardened general, he could hardly find any loopholes.

After all, artillery can only be an auxiliary artifact. The city of Zhengzhou is built thick and high, and the number of defenders in the city is half that of the Tang army. It is really difficult to attack hard.

What's more, Li Cunxu always avoids fighting, and even the cavalry is reluctant to let out for a fight.

With the advantage of artillery, the brave Jin cavalry had already suffered a lot of losses in the previous battles.

She sighed slightly in her heart. The empress couldn't come up with any good ideas. Seeing Li Jing's brows furrowed and unable to do anything really made her feel uncomfortable enough.

"Your Majesty, judging from the future, it is better to use the cavalry as a wing to attack again tomorrow! Even if we can't attack hard, we can attract Li Cunxu to fight in the field..."

One of the generals spoke carefully, but after seeing that Li Jing's expression had not changed at all, his voice became quieter.

Feng Dao waved the sand and gravel that blew on his face with his sleeves. He carefully observed Li Jing's expression before making serious suggestions.

"Your Majesty, according to the old minister, more than half of the Central Plains has been taken into account, and the ferry along the Yellow River is now under the control of our army. Why don't you stop the army for now, and go east to attack the bandits after recuperating in the next year? It's also a good strategy."

The generals behind him were shocked at first when they heard this, and then they all looked at Li Jing, waiting for his decision.Although there are all generals who don't like to fight and make meritorious deeds, the current situation is like this. The army is in a stalemate outside, and the daily consumption of food and grass is an astronomical figure.After Li Jing ascended the throne, he also reduced taxes for the people in Guanzhong, and it was very difficult to continue supplying them.

Li Jing also felt a slight movement in his heart. He is not the kind of person who enjoys great achievements. It is not a shame for him to stop his troops and return to the court.

What's more, Jin and Liang started this war first, and his original intention was to wait until the turn of the year before fighting again.

But now that I have been beaten, if I say that I can go back so cheaply, I feel a little bit unwilling to do so.

He turned his head and glanced at the empress, just in time to see a pair of her phoenix eyes looking at his face, and the message on her face was obvious.

No matter what decision he makes, the empress will support him without hesitation.

With a slight sigh in his heart, Li Jing took off his hands and reached out to the side with one hand.

"Bring a bow."

Someone immediately came over and brought a hard bow. They all knew that Li Jing had great hand strength, and there was no big bow that he couldn't pull.

People on the high slope in the distance clearly saw Li Jing's action of opening the bow and setting the arrow, and they were all stunned.

Amidst the sound of the bow strings, a cone-shaped feather arrow flew out instantly. When everyone looked up, they could see a vulture hovering in the middle of the battlefield falling with the arrow.

Both sides of the person are clearly visible.

"That's it!"

Li Jing didn't even look at Li Cunxu on the high slope. He turned his horse's head and prepared to go down the slope.

Everyone felt a little disappointed. Some generals were still looking at the shot down vulture and didn't know what they were thinking.

The empress' phoenix eyes were concealed, she glanced at Zhengzhou City in the distance, then rode her horse to follow Li Jing's figure.

But at this moment, on the other side of the camp, a horse suddenly galloped towards them. Li Jing frowned slightly and stopped the horse.

All the generals were taken aback, seeing Zhong Xiaokui, one of Li Jing's guards, approaching from a distance.

Everyone's heart suddenly became tense.

Could something else happen at this juncture...

Under the frowning gaze of the empress, Zhong Xiaokui first saluted Li Jing briefly, then quickly posted it, and handed him a letter.

After Li Jing opened the letter, he frowned at first, then stared blankly, and finally laughed.

"What's the matter?"

The empress understood that it was not a bad thing, she felt relieved and moved closer.

Li Jing had a smile that couldn't be hidden from the corners of his eyes. He held the sword on his waist with one hand and handed the letter to the empress with the other hand. Finally, he turned to look at Feng Dao and others who were still confused.

"The generals will return to camp and wait for the city to be broken!"

The empress unfolded the letter and could only see a few rough lines on it, but the last sentence was the most important one, which made her stunned.

"Zhu Youzhen is dead, please Your Majesty to defeat Liang Jun immediately."

"Bad guy, Shi Yao."
