Chapter 493: Trends in the Southwest!

Chapter 493

"...No surprises, the news from the front line will fall on these people.

Wang Chong looked at the Tang cavalry on the opposite side. The southwest was already in chaos. They went south from the capital without stopping day and night. This was the first wave of Great Tang troops he encountered.

"Are you Li Zhengji's army?"

Wang Chong pulled his horse forward and asked. Although it was a question, their identities were completely confirmed in their tone.

"I don't know who the adult is?"

At the top of the hill, all the infantry and cavalry escaped from death, and looked at Wang Chong who was walking towards him, all of them were puzzled. This boy is too young, Datang does not have such young generals.

But the aura exuded from the other party, the tone of his speech, and the majesty revealed by his gestures are obviously not ordinary identities.

Everyone still didn't understand where the court got such a young general. Moreover, the standard armor of this army also looks a little strange.

Everyone has served in the army for so long, and they have never seen this kind of strange armor. It looks very similar, but it is very different.

Wang Chong had no expression on his face. He didn't say much. With a swipe of his right hand, he pulled off Song Wangnan's own token. With the tassel hanging on his finger, it was directly in front of everyone.

"Buzz!"

Seeing the dragon-shaped pattern on the golden token, everyone on the hill was shocked. Although the knowledge is superficial and I don't know much about those things in the court, but no matter how superficial I am, I know that those who can tattoo dragons on tokens are often either rich or noble, not the royal family, but the royal family!

No matter what kind of identity it is, it is not something they can easily guess and contact at their level.

"See Your Highness!"

There was a trace of panic on the faces of the people, and they knelt down one after another. For a moment, they only felt that the young man in front of them was unpredictable, and felt awe in their hearts.

"Get up!"

Wang Chong waved his hand, but did not correct their mistakes. This time is not the time to be humble. The southwest has undergone drastic changes, and the storm has struck. In the great waves, only by relying on King Song's status as a royal family member can people's hearts be stabilized.

"Thank you Your Highness.

"

Everyone stood up one after another, but their expressions were still full of fear and awe.

"Let me ask you, what is the situation on the front line now?"

Wang Chong said.

"front?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Wang Chong was startled, and immediately realized that he had said something they didn't understand.

"I mean, what's the current situation? Didn't Li Zhengji lead you to support the Annan Protectorate Army? What's going on now? What's the situation with the others, and how many people are still alive?"

Wang Chong changed his words and said seriously.

The situation in the southwest is what he cares most about. Only by understanding the situation ahead can he know what to do next. "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles", this is the basic element of the art of war.

And what Wang Chong is still concerned about now is how many of Li Zhengji's 60,000 horses survived? Although Wang Chong was not present in that battle and did not know the specific situation, but with his profound attainments in the art of war, Wang Chong could at least judge one basic fact:

The place where Li Zhengji was ambushed was not in a place like the Erhai Plain, which means that the Uzbek Tibetans would never wipe them out, and Li Zhengji's 60,000 reinforcements would never be like the 180,000 Great Tang in the southwest of his previous life. Like the elite, without the shelter of the Lion City, they were wiped out directly on the Erhai Plain!

"We don't know the specific situation, we only know the general situation..."

Hearing Wang Chong's question, everyone didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately told them all the information they knew in detail.

It turned out that before the imperial court ordered, Li Zhengji actually set off earlier than everyone knew. "Soldiers are precious and fast", Li Zhengji has long experienced and fought in Anxi and Beiting, and he deeply understands this truth.

So the court discussed a result. When the official order was issued, it was actually an empty battalion. Although there were banners everywhere, there were actually only a few veterans there.

So Li Zhengji's marching speed is actually much faster than many people know.

However, even Li Zhengji didn't know that the defeat on the front line was so fast. When he set off, the news he got was only a small defeat of the elite of Xianyu Zhongtong and the 180,000 Annan Governor's Mansion, but when he arrived in the southwestern territory of the Tang Dynasty, Xianyu Zhongtong had already suffered a major defeat.

And what greeted them was not Ge Luofeng and his 300,000 mengshezhao army, but the Uzang cavalry and Uzang cavalry who came down from the distant Uzang plateau and came from the east. General Huoshu returns to Tibet.

Everyone thought that they were going to fight against the Mengshezhao people, so when the 60,000 temporary reinforcements saw a group of Uzbek Tibetans charging forward, one can imagine the confusion caused.

Although Li Zhengji was a famous general, and was hailed by Dafang as an outstanding leader of the younger generation, he still fell short of Huoshu Guizang, the general who faced Uzang.

This gap doomed the outcome of this war.

However, Huoshu Guizang obviously underestimated Li Zhengji. Although the number, combat power, and strength were not as good as Huoshu Guizang, and he was eventually defeated by Huoshu Guizang, Li Zhengji also relied on his outstanding command ability to let Us Tibetans paid the price!

In this battle, Li Zhengji was finally beheaded by Huoshu Guizang in a surprise attack!

But even Huoshu Guicang has things that he can't control:

The terrain in the southwestern part of the empire was complicated. Although Huoshu Guizang had defeated Li Zhengji and his 60,000 reinforcements, when Li Zhengji used himself as bait to hold them back and ordered the others to flee in all directions, even Huoshu Guizang was helpless.

If reinforcements of 60,000 cavalry and cavalry gathered together and fled, they would not be able to escape in front of the iron cavalry of the Uzbek Tibetans. But tens of thousands of shares are scattered into countless shares at once, which is completely different.

Even among the Tibetans in Uzbekistan, there are Mengshezhao spies from the Geluofeng sect, but they are still not enough!

Therefore, although Li Zhengji was defeated, a considerable number of people still escaped.

"... There are too many Tibetans in Uzbekistan, they are too strong, and they are cavalry, so we all fled in all directions. When I escaped, there were only two or three brothers, and the others were all returned from the north. I met on the road. Although I don’t know the situation of other people, I can be sure that there are many other brothers around here.”

"Now, most of the Uzbek Tibetan troops have gone back, and they should be encircling and suppressing the Annan Governor's Army. The rest are encircling and suppressing us, and the number should not exceed six or seven thousand! If we can get the other scattered The brothers gathered together, together with the army of adults, it may not be impossible to defeat them."

"It's just a pity that Mr. Li is so young..."

...

When a group of people talked about the young general Li Zhengji who was leading this time, their expressions were all gloomy, and Wang Chong, who was under the hill, was filled with emotion.

Li Zhengji's defeat in the previous life was well known to the whole world, and everyone in the world only knew that Li Zhengji had failed the court's entrustment, lost 60,000 horses and lost countless supplies.

All eyes are on Southwest's wins and losses.

It was also the first time that Wang Chong knew that there were such twists and turns.

Although Li Zhengji was defeated, he was still a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. His determination and sacrifice in prison are moving. It's just a pity that at a too young age, he met Huoshu Guizang, a foreign general of the same level, too early.

If he survived, if he met Huoshu Guizang again in time, he would never end up like today.

It's a pity that other people's words are light, no matter in the past or now, it is impossible for Li Zhengji to listen to his one-sided words. It is impossible for anyone to listen.

"By the way, I heard that Commander Xu did not return to the north. He seems to have assembled the army in the southeast and regrouped. I heard that he has already gathered a thousand people around him, and there may be more now. Moreover, And a lot of baggage."

Suddenly a big man with black face and beard said.

"That's right, Commander Xu is very powerful and proficient in the art of war. If His Highness can get his help, he will be even more powerful and have a lot to do. It may not even save other brothers!"

Another Tang soldier in the real martial arts realm also had his eyes lit up when he heard "Captain Xu", and he was shocked, as if the "Captain Xu" mentioned by the black-faced and bearded man was an omnipotent savior.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Captain Xu!!"

...

The others also agreed one after another, their expressions were completely gone from the decadence just now, and they seemed to be very convinced of Captain Xu.

Wang Chong frowned slightly, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

He really didn't know anything about the "Captain Xu" these dozen people called, and he didn't understand why they were so convinced of him.

"It's normal that my lord doesn't know, but although he is not well-known in the army, he is quite prestigious in the army. He is a veteran of the army, and everyone trusts him. Before this battle, there was only Captain Xu. I noticed something wrong in advance from the clues around, and reminded General Li. It's a pity, General Li is too young after all..."

The black-faced bearded man stopped talking halfway through.

Wang Chong nodded and understood what he meant. Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages. Li Zhengji may not be an excellent general, but at least he is a qualified general.

"Eagle, come here!"

Wang Chong turned his head and waved his hand towards the distance.

"Release the giant eagle and spy in the southeast direction."

"Yes, my son."

The eagle whistled and released the giant eagle on its shoulders again without even asking. The giant eagle's speed was very fast, and its steel-like black wings just flapped in the air, immediately stirring up a cyclone, and flew into the sky like an arrow leaving the string.

The battle was over, Wang Chong got the news he wanted, and immediately began to gather the army.

"Next, it's time to temper my own strength!"

Wang Chong blinked his eyes, looking at the dark clouds in the distance, a violent light flashed in his eyes, blood-red light gathered in his body, flowing like magma, it belonged to the "small yin and yang technique" Gang Qi.

Martial arts journey, one step at a time, under normal circumstances, at his age, even if he is talented, it will not happen overnight if he wants to reach the level of a top master.

But while difficult, it is by no means impossible.

"Little Yin-Yang Technique" is that "opportunity" that cannot be speculated by common sense. This is the reason for Wang Chong's rebirth in this life, to obtain the small yin and yang technique.

It's just a pity that Wang Chong lacked an opportunity all this time, and this opportunity is "war"!

Only a huge war and a steady stream of opponents could provide Wang Chong with a chance to advance by leaps and bounds in a short period of time and reach an extremely high level.

And only with strong and incomparable strength can he get involved in this war that will determine the fate of Shenzhou.

And now, this opportunity has arrived!

"Buzz!"

A bloody light flashed in Wang Chong's eyes, as if a blood-red bright sun had shot out. He flicked the reins suddenly, and his whole body rode south like an arrow off the string.

There are more Uzbek cavalry roaming around!
