Journey to the West begins with a full-level Tang monk

Chapter 1486

"It's a pity, what a great opportunity!"

Now that the third prince has decided, it is impossible to refute it with Lin Kuohai's status, so he has no choice but to obey the arrangement of the third prince, but he still said something regretfully.

Immediately, he came to his senses and asked with some surprise: "Your Highness, Third Prince, what did His Highness say just now?"

The third prince said somewhat inscrutablely: "Hehe, keep it secret for now, you will know after a while, now continue to withdraw the troops, withdraw five miles, and then repair, and there is still a battle to be fought."

Hearing that there was a battle to be fought, Lin Kuohai and the brothers in the Death Battalion were all refreshed, and immediately carried out the third prince's order.

The army didn't even clean up the battlefield, leaving the abandoned horses to gnaw on the grass at will.

In fact, many people don't understand, but no one dares to ask.

It's not that the soldiers of Death Battalion and Qingchuan Battalion don't understand the simple truth, but they believe that with the vision and wisdom of the Third Prince, they wouldn't be surprised.

The horses of the Second Prince's faction had been recuperating for a long time. The horses that had just come out for battle had not traveled long distances and were full of energy.

However, the third prince did not let them exchange those war horses.

And those war horses were just over a mile away from them, and they were actually within easy reach.

It is a pity!
The brigade continued on their way, and sure enough, according to what the third prince said, they ran for a distance of five or six miles along the official road with seven turns and eight turns.

"Okay, everyone, get off your horse and rest!"

With one gesture from the third prince, the team immediately stopped.

The people from the death-death battalion and the Qingchuan battalion dismounted according to the order of the third prince. They didn't feel tired, but their horses were not good enough.

They took out some soybeans from the horse's rucksack and began to feed the horses, and then let the horses graze on the grass.

The third prince, accompanied by Lin Kuohai and others, climbed up the mountain.

At the beginning, Lin Kuohai and the others were a little strange, not knowing where the third prince was making trouble, until they climbed to a certain point and looked down at the direction of Tongxia County, Lin Kuohai and the others couldn't help but feel a little nervous. shock.

Although it is a little far away from the county seat, but from a high position, you can vaguely see the situation there.

At this time, Tongchuan County was no longer what they saw when they were downstairs, but a mess of porridge.

On the west side of the city wall, a large-scale battle is taking place.

Judging from the banner, the side that attacked the city wall was under the banner of the first prince, and the side that defended was naturally the second prince's people.

The fight on both sides was very fierce. From the terrain there, it can be generally inferred that the First Prince's people secretly climbed the Tongshan Mountain, dispatched cavalry, approached the Tongxia city, and then climbed up the city wall in one go.

Because the east city and the west city faced mountains and the terrain was steep, it was almost impossible for a large group of troops to appear below the city from here, so the defenders deployed on those two sides were very weak.

However, things are often so unexpected.

The First Prince's troops actually started attacking the city from there.

As a battleground for military strategists, Tongxia County has become the focus of the three-party competition.

The third prince approached the city first, and then withdrew.

But at this time, it became the battlefield between the First Prince and the Second Prince.

From this angle, it can be seen that the people from the First Prince's side climbed onto the city wall, but they were strongly resisted by the troops defending the city one after another.

There are still many people under the city who have not climbed the city wall, so the people on the First Prince's side are struggling to guard the bridgehead that has been occupied, providing a foothold for the soldiers under the city to climb up the city.

On the other side, the second prince's troops have already sent reinforcements to the west city from other cities, and more and more people are arriving.

"My darling, Your Highness the Third Prince, how did you know that there would be a battle over there? If we were there, we might be involved in the battle. At least, the people on the side of the First Prince will not launch an attack immediately, they are very likely to They didn't show up until we finished fighting with the second prince. Now we have become people who sit on the mountain and watch tigers fight!"

Lin Kuohai looked at the situation at the top of the city in the distance, and said with a shocked face.

He was really shocked in his heart, he never expected that it was the First Prince's person who climbed to the top of the city, and he did not expect that such a battle would happen on the top of the city in this moment.

And all of this seems to be under the control of the third prince.

At that time, the third prince was by his side, and he never left his sight. From the perspective at that time, it was impossible to see more things than himself.

However, things are so strange.

As if the third prince had fully grasped every move in the city, he led them up the hill.

At this time, the third prince was looking down at the Tongxia county town from a high position, his brows were wrinkled and his expression was serious.

Immediately, he said with a bit of bitterness in his voice: "General Lin, look, those who are fighting are all the people of Daxia, and they are all the best soldiers of Daxia. With today's fighting, any loss of a person is the loss of Great Xia. However, if there is no destruction, if some people are not killed at this time, more people may die in the future, and more innocent people will die. So, Power is the devil, it will make people lose their sense of normalcy."

"If it weren't for the fact that there are more people who can almost do things for the people of Daxia, this commander would rather stay away from this terrible vortex. If we rush forward at this time, the battle situation will worsen. We can only let them consume some of each other's strength first. Then we'll clean up the mess!"

Lin Kuohai was silent for a while, he originally thought that the third prince would be overjoyed because of the fight between the two sides, but he didn't expect the third prince to have such a compassionate heart.

"Yeah, the last general doesn't understand any major principles, but he also knows that only when the heart is united and the energy is used together can great things be accomplished. Now that the army is divided into three factions, it is impossible to make them bow their heads and surrender without bloodshed. , we can only let them consume some power first, and then control the rest. Otherwise, even if they surrender in name now, and their power has not been reduced, they will definitely have another heart in the future, and it will be impossible to guard against at that time!"

Lin Kuohai said in a deep voice.

At this time, he, including the third prince, did not know that Prime Minister Yun Cong and General Zhen Guo had all died.

They all thought that even if they occupied Tongxia County, they would face a larger-scale war in the future. Even if these people temporarily surrendered, perhaps at some point, these people would resign.

Even if the eldest prince and the second prince died, General Zhen Guo and Prime Minister Yun Cong would never let it go.

Because of such a road, as long as the first step is started, there is no turning back.
