Chapter 174: Breaking Wu Sangui (continued)(1/2)
"General, there are shouts of killing ahead. It seems that the lord has already fought with Wu Sangui!"
"Kill it!"
Li Guang had just won the victory and was full of morale. He led his cavalry to march lightly, under the banner of Xiao Jian, and happened to bump into Wu Sangui who was retreating.
"Xiao Jian's cavalry? His arrival at this time will not help."
Wu Sangui was about to step forward to join them when the general's keen intuition revealed that Xiao Jian's cavalry was far less powerful than the cavalry led by Li Guang. Moreover, the horses ridden by Li Guang's cavalry were valuable.
Wu Sangui understands horses and can make a rough judgment based on the horse's size and the sound of its hooves.
"They are not friendly forces, kill them!"
Wu Sangui drew his saber, commanded a group of soldiers to kill him, and personally took Qi Xiaobai hostage to break out in another direction.
In order to save his life, he can only sacrifice all his troops. As long as he is still alive, he has a chance to make a comeback!
Li Guang led the cavalry to defeat Wu Sangui's elite soldiers. Wu Sangui only broke through with dozens of cavalry.
Now Wu Sangui didn't even dare to go to Ju County.
Li Guang's cavalry possesses Xiao Jian's battle flag, indicating that Xiao Jian has been defeated.
So Wu Sangui had no choice but to take Qi Xiaobai and dozens of cavalry to flee in the direction of Beihai Kingdom.
Li Guang was fighting hard when a shower of arrows came, one of which hit Li Guang.
Li Guang was angry, but when he saw that the archers shooting at him turned out to be archers from the Shesheng Camp, he suddenly realized that he was flying Xiao Jian's flag, especially when Li Guang had Xiao Jian's general flag erected next to him!
"Drop the flag!"
Li Guang, who was shot by a friendly archer, was depressed again.
He disguised himself as Xiao Jian's troops but was spotted by Wu Sangui and was shot by friendly forces.
Yin Li, Sun Kang, Wu Dun and other Taishan bandits fought bravely in this battle, trying their best to show their strength and claim credit from Chu Tian.
Several armies swept across Wu Sangui's army on the opposite side, and the main general Wu Sangui fled. The rest of the troops died or surrendered, and Ju County was decided.
Xue Rengui didn't even need to take action in this battle, Xue Rengui was always by Chu Tian's side.
There were so many people who wanted to make meritorious deeds that Chu Tian didn't even have time to send Xue Rengui to the field, and the outcome was already decided.
Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Sun Kang, Yin Li, Wu Dun and others couldn't wait to sign a petition in order to be reused in the future.
After the war ended, Zhou Yafu was responsible for the aftermath and counting the loot, while the Taishan bandits dug holes to bury the bodies.
After Chu Tian's victory, all the Taishan bandit leaders were as afraid of Chu Tian as a tiger.
Chu Tian, who organized the crusade against Wu Sangui, obviously wanted to take control of Ju County.
In this way, there were three counties in Chutian, and they were three wealthy counties, occupying the plains around the Yi River and Shu River.
To the south, you can covet the Donghai Kingdom and Xiapi Kingdom to replace Tao Qian as the governor of Xuzhou.
To the east, you can explore Xihai County, reach the coast of the East China Sea, and travel across the four seas.
To the west, you can covet Taishan County and capture Zhuge Liang who has not yet grown up.
To the north, you can covet the Beihai Kingdom and compete with Qingzhou.
Although Chu Tian has not completely occupied Langya Kingdom, no one can stop him from unifying Langya Kingdom.
Even if someone could, it would be from a force outside Langya Kingdom.
Because Chutian already controls the core area of Langya Kingdom.
Yin Li, Wu Dun and other Taishan thieves realized this, and they knew that it would be difficult for them to go against Chu Tian.
"Lord!"
A person who surprised Chu Tian appeared in front of him.
"Aren't you going to help Hua Mulan take Lingcheng?"
"This... the general took the wrong path..."
Li Guang told Chu Tian in detail what happened on the way there.
Chu Tian was deeply surprised when he heard that Li Guang met Xiao Jian's army by chance after he was lost and defeated them.
He thought Li Guang was an unlucky guy, but he didn't expect that Li Guang's bad luck would lead to unexpected results and great achievements.
Who said that Feng Tang Yi Lao and Li Guang could not be sealed?
Fang Xuanling commented on the side: "Misfortunes are where blessings depend."
"You defeated Xiao Jian, and your merits outweighed your faults. It will be counted as military merit."
Chu Tian sent Li Guang there, just to act as a partial force to cover Hua Mulan. He knew that Hua Mulan's surprise attack had probably achieved results, so he did not pursue Li Guang's disappearance.
By sending Li Guang out, Chu Tian was ready to take the risk.
Li Guang was overjoyed when he heard that Chu Tian did not pursue his fault: "This is my subordinate's achievement!"
Li Guang presented a package to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian opened it, and inside it turned out to be...a dead head.
Fortunately, Chu Tian managed to stay calm and did not lose his composure in front of his subordinates.
"This is the head of Langya State Prime Minister Xiao Jian!"
Li Guang was very proud.
"General Li [Ling Ling Reading 00ks], next time your gains will be handed over to the military advisor who counts your military exploits. There is no need to submit them to me. I believe the military advisor will truthfully count them."
Chu Tian's words were serious and thoughtful, and he inadvertently passed the blame to Fang Xuanling.
Fang Xuanling was smiling slightly, but after hearing what Chu Tian said, her smile gradually solidified.
Li Guang comes to him every day with his head in his hand, who can bear it?
"There is also a sword belonging to Xiao Jian."
Li Guang presented another piece of loot to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian took the sword and pulled it out only one foot. The cold light was so cold that he knew it was a precious sword.
[Name]:Polu Sword
[Quality]: Platinum level
[Effect]: Own attack power +7, armor-piercing damage +5%
Chu Tian left the long sword behind because he just lacked a handy weapon.
As a lord, the weapons you use do not have to be fierce, but they must be stylish. It is best to wear a long sword at ordinary times.
"General Mo will go down first to heal his injuries."
After Li Guang took credit, he turned around and left. There was still an undrawn arrow on the armor behind him.
Only then did Chu Tian know that Li Guang had been shot by random arrows from the Shesheng Camp.
Chu Tian originally thought that Li Guang would be lucky, but he took it for granted. Generally speaking, Li Guang's luck was not very good, and he had already been hit by arrows twice.
Fang Xuanling commented again: "Blessings come when misfortune lies ahead."
"..."
Chu Tian and his party counted the results of the battle and beheaded more than two thousand people in total. All other enemies were captured or dispersed, and Wu Sangui only escaped with his life.
Chutian suddenly gained 30,000 prisoners, most of whom were from Changxi's old tribe.
Chu Tian had no good impressions of this group of Taishan thieves who had burned, killed, and looted in Yangdu County.
He asked Fang Xuanling: "Is Shangbi Town still short of miners?"
Fang Xuanling shook his head: "There have been frequent wars recently, and there are too many prisoners. The gold and iron mines in Shangbi Town are not short of manpower. Maybe the lord can let these prisoners reclaim farmland and farm for the government. The government will get six harvests every year, and Taishan
Thieves get four. After ten years of farming, they can be freed when they grow old."
"allow."
So the old troops of Sanwan Changxi were arranged by Chu Tian to farm in the plains of Yihe and Shuhe.
As for the 30,000 Taishan bandits of Yin Li, Sun Guan, and Wu Dun, Chu Tian decided to recruit them and select the strongest ones as soldiers, while the rest were stationed in the fields.
The Taishan Bandits, like the Yellow Turban Army, are not very good at fighting, but they are first-rate experts in farming, and are better than higher-level soldiers.
"You will hand over your respective territories unconditionally, move to Xia City, and serve me. Do you have any objections?"
Chutian recruited Yin Li, Sun Kang, and Wu Dun to formally recruit the last batch of Taishan bandits.
In history, after Cao Cao incorporated the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, he gained a large number of young men and his power increased greatly.
Chutian recruited the Taishan bandits and his power was strengthened.
Yin Li, Sun Kang, Wu Dun and other Taishan bandit leaders knelt in front of Chu Tian. Facing Chu Tian, who seemed to them to be invincible, they all surrendered: "We all obey your orders!"
"Xia Cheng will send officials to take over your three counties. If you regret it midway, my army will go to sweep it away."
Chutian carrot and stick.
