Chapter 249

After the preparation of the left Shence army, he took 10000 prisoners straight north. Because there was enough food and grass, he didn't embarrass the prisoners on the way, but regarded them as a logistics team.

After screening, some of the prisoners who committed minor crimes were promoted as leaders. Li Chengye also promised them that, regardless of the seriousness of the crime, if they can make war achievements, those who commit serious crimes can reduce the punishment, and those who commit minor crimes will have the opportunity to join the Zuo Shence army.

The treatment of the Shence army is well known all over the world. If it were not for the financial restrictions of the imperial court, the Tang royal family could even directly use money to buy all the dental soldiers of all the vassal towns into the Shence army.

This promise greatly increased the enthusiasm of the 10000 prisoners, and they did their best to deal with all kinds of sundries all the way, with high efficiency. This also makes the March more efficient.

When he set out, Wei Ran's injury had healed, and everyone in the army was smacking his tongue. Now everyone in the army looks respectful when they see Wei Ran. When they meet, they salute on their own initiative and say that they are less general.

The young general is no longer the respect he used to see in his father's face, but from his heart. Even if he is just a seven grade Zhiguo school captain and a new officer, no one dares to doubt that the height he can reach in the future is likely to be comparable to Li Chengye.

His exploits were real, and the Jedi's plan to fight back was well known. He had both wisdom and courage, but he was only rewarded by the imperial court for his military exploits.

Wei Ran led the scouts to reconnoitre in the first 50 li of the army. When they approached Xingyang, they met the fugitive anti thieves. After capturing several waves of people, I knew that these people had escaped from Xuzhou.

They reported the news of Wang Xianzhi's death to the leaders of the bandits. The leaders of the bandits were shocked and didn't believe it, and executed many defeated soldiers who escaped from Xuzhou. The group felt they couldn't stay any longer, so they looked for a chance to escape.

When Wei Ran thought of this, he discussed with Li Chengye, took Wang Xianzhi's big flag and bugle flag among the cavalry, and then hung Wang Xianzhi's armor head on the flagpole.

Then he led the cavalry to charge the invaders who besieged Wulang pass. In fact, the lethality was not great, and only broke through the army of 20000 people. But the impact was like a nuclear bomb explosion, which broke out in the anti thief camp that night.

Many thieves and generals have seen Wang Xianzhi's two flags and his own head armor, which can't be fake anyway.

In addition, the combat effectiveness and morale shown by the elite cavalry of the Zuo Shence army let the thieves know that the official Army really returned after victory, otherwise the defeated army could not maintain such morale.

So that night, the anti thief camp was in a mess. Inside, many people took photos of the reputation of the left Shence army and began to flee from the camp in groups. Even some bandit leaders could not make up their minds and could not stop the actions of the soldiers at the bottom. Finally, they had to lead their own soldiers to flee to Hebei road.

Of course, some thieves will want to avenge Wang Xianzhi and suppress the fleeing soldiers with bloody means, resulting in a mutiny and a riot in the camp.

Li Chengye had been staring at the situation here for a long time. That night, he sent steps and horses to attack together. In addition, the Shence border army transferred from Fan Yang to wulaoguan also saw the opportunity and launched a counterattack at the same time.

Overnight, 300000 thief camps immediately collapsed, and the siege of wulaoguan collapsed.

At least 100000 prisoners were captured. Of course, many thieves fled. After Li Chengye contacted the Shence border army in wulaoguan and took over the command, he ordered to continue to pursue exile and drive north without giving the thief army a chance to develop.

At the same time, the township brave regiments in Henan Road and Hebei road were called on to work together to besiege the fleeing bandits, so as not to give them a chance to breathe.

Instead of following Li Chengye in pursuit of the remnant bandits, Wei Ran stayed in wulaoguan to guard the gateway of the eastern capital. At the same time, he supervised 100000 thief Army prisoners and waited for the instructions of the imperial court. Li Guangsi continued to pursue exile with his father and continued to learn the art of war in actual combat.

The Jianghu people in the army, including Bu Lanshan, saw that the overall situation had been decided, so they left one after another, and Li Chengye didn't stay much. When Bu Lanshan left, he invited Wei Ran to visit Qixia sword sect if he had time to enter Shu.

The imperial order was sent to the army two days later. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not order a reward on the spot. Instead, he appointed fan Heng, who remained in the eastern capital, to take charge of many matters in wulaoguan, took over Wei Ran's temporary power, and ordered Princess Shouning to enter the dynasty.

After taking over the post, fan Heng took over many important defensive areas of wulaoguan with the right Shence army led by him. At the same time, he asked the left Shence army, including the Shence border army, to move outside the pass and garrison outside the pass wall. He was not allowed to enter the pass without order.

Wei Ran smelled an ominous smell from many personnel appointments of the imperial court and fan Heng.

Time goes back to the day when the good news of Princess Shouning returned to Chang'an.

The emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who had been ill for many days, immediately sat up from the Dragon bed and screened all the eunuchs and maids around him. Word by word and line by line, from the good news of Princess Shouning, imagine the battle that is almost impossible to win.

The letter is very long and detailed. Even if it is written in classical Chinese, it has written more than 10000 words. This is the summary of Shouning princess from the narration of Li Chengye, Wei Ran, infantry soldiers, cavalry soldiers, and even Wulin people such as Bu Lanshan, plus her own experience.

The battle of killing the king led by Wei Ran is described from many different angles, which can almost be passed on as a military Scripture.

It took the emperor nearly an hour to read the whole success report, and a person's name was deeply engraved in his impression - Li Dingguo!

It can be seen that among the good news, Princess Shouning highly praised Li Dingguo, and even praised him at the end for his military strategy, his martial arts and divine power, his posture of Xiang Yu, and his ability to kill general Guan Yu. She is a rare strong general and famous general in the world.

Even with the many systems and regulations of the field hospital he founded, we can see that he is thoughtful, organized and qualified.

Seeing this, the emperor frowned deeply. If he has a long life and is in good health, he will not be afraid to reuse this person, and will be introduced into the palace to accompany the prince, so as to affect the prince's mind and make him more masculine.

Cultivate him as a Tang Dynasty Chu Shuai. After his father and old man, he can still rely on him to continue the authority of the Tang Dynasty, gradually eliminate the vassal towns, expand the Silk Road and restore the prosperous era of Kaiyuan!

It's a pity

The emperor sighed and looked at his thin face and scattered hair in the bronze mirror, like a candle in the wind, more like a zombie than a powerful emperor. He felt that he could no longer control the future of Datang.

God, why don't you lend me ten years!

In his regret and anger, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty gradually returned to reality.

Think of the prince's weak body, the surface is submissive, but behind it is actually greedy and lazy. He really didn't want to hand over the power of Da Tong to this man, but he had only such a son.

I have worked hard to revive Datang. I must not let an unworthy son destroy it. Shouning, I can rely on only you.

A plan gradually took shape in the emperor's mind. He knew that after completely calming the chaos of Henan Road, many chaotic things in the world would really start. He must make plans for the future.

The first is the Li family. Since Zhang Zhen's tragic defeat, the Li family and his son have made great efforts to turn the tide, which is the pillar stone of the Tang Dynasty. In peacetime, the emperor was confident that he would reward Li Chengye as a pillar state.

However, at this time, we can't do that. This will force Li Chengye into a power minister step by step. This is not what the emperor saw, nor should it be what the loyal Li Chengye wanted.
