Chapter 535 Controversy! Zhangchou Jianqiong's Token!
Chapter 535
"Chase!"
The army pursued and killed them all the way, closely following behind the Tibetans of Uzbekistan. After chasing him for more than ten miles, he killed thousands of Tibetans in Uzbekistan before giving up. The torrential rain, the limited vision, and the fact that the Tibetans in Uzbekistan were determined to flee, even Wang Chong couldn't wipe them all out.
However, the outcome of this battle has exceeded everyone's expectations.
The more than 40,000 Annan Protectorate Army dealt with the 70,000 Uzbek cavalry, which consisted of 70,000 Uzbek cavalry. They only paid five or six thousand dollars, but wiped out the more than 50,000 Uzbek Tibetan cavalry. This kind of winning rate is ten to one. Absolutely beyond everyone's expectations.
The morale of the Annan Metropolitan Guards is now high, and it is the time when they are most eager to fight.
"Young master, what should we do next?"
Several tens of miles away from the mountains, the generals stopped and looked at Wang Chong in the heavy rain, their eyes full of respect.
Wang Chong has no official title, no title, and he is not a member of the Annan Guard Army.
It's unimaginable for such a person to take over the command of the army as soon as he came up. After all, Wang Chong's age is such that there is probably no one younger than him in the army. Many generals could even be his father's generation, not to mention at least 90% of the generals of Annan's Protectorate Army had never seen him before.
But no one cares about this now.
The battle between everyone and Feng Jiayi and Jiao Siluo didn't just start now, the previous situation was almost suppressed and beaten. All the changes and twists in this battle started when the boy climbed to the top of the mountain and took over the command of the army. It can be said that without this minority in front of them, many people here would probably die on the mountain behind them.
Regardless of the origin of the hero, no one cares about Wang Chong's age and whether he has an official title at this time.
In this young man, there is an amazing commanding talent and art that far surpasses all present. If there is one person who can lead everyone out of the current predicament, then it is only this young man in front of him. In contrast, it doesn't matter whether he is Wang Yan's youngest son or not, and whether he holds the token of King Song.
This point is already the consensus of all Annan's guards present.
"Don't worry about Jiao Siluo and Feng Jiayi for the time being. The most urgent thing is to find Mr. Xianyu Zhongtong and join them as soon as possible."
Wang Chong said without hesitation.
He had already thought about this. Annan's Protectorate Army plus his father and elder brother Wang Fu led far more than 80,000 troops, and the 40,000 troops behind him were only part of them. If they don't find Xianyu Zhongtong and the others, they will definitely die if they encounter Huoshu Guizang.
"But we don't even know where they are now!"
At this time, Chen Shusun rode over from behind, his expression was solemn, and the armor on his body was wet by the waterfall rain, showing a blue-gray water color:
"Moreover, the purpose of our initial operation was to break out of the siege and save everyone's lives as much as possible. If we look back now, the risk is not small. Without the protection of the mountains, the terrain is unfavorable. I am afraid that we will face the Shangwu Tibetans on the flat ground. There is a dead end. Moreover, the army of Huoshu Guizang and Uzang is catching up. If you go back to find Mr. Xianyu and the others, you will waste time and run into Uzang. Not only will no one be able to save them, but you will also have to wait until the time comes. The whole army will be wiped out in time! This is not the Lion City, from the moment we left the Lion City, we have no city or natural danger to rely on."
Everyone who said a word fell silent.
"That's right, since we left Lion City, everyone has no turning back. Moreover, since Feng Jiayi and the others have found us, then Huoshu Guizang and Ge Luofeng may have already known our whereabouts. It's a matter of time. If we delay here for a moment, the army will be more dangerous!"
Another general of the Annan Protectorate Army also said.
"The Annan Protectorate Army must not be buried here. If our army is annihilated, the Annan Protectorate will really exist in name only!"
Other generals of the Annan Protectorate Army also echoed.
"Actually, everyone had already figured it out before taking action on this breakout. This time, the Mongolian-Ukrainian coalition forces have already established their momentum. It is impossible for us to resist. We want everyone to evacuate completely unscathed. Impossible. Some people are destined to be unable to escape, and everything depends on their own good fortune. We are like this, so are other people, and everyone is like this. Master Xianyu must also understand this truth. Yes They can’t escape, everything is up to them.”
Another general of Annan's Protectorate Army immediately stepped forward and stood up.
There was a long silence after that.
The sound of heavy crackling rain echoed in my ears, and raindrops the size of soybeans hit the armor with a crackling sound. Wang Chong didn't speak, his eyes swept across the surrounding southwestern generals, and his brows slowly frowned.
"I didn't expect that Xianyu Zhongtong would lose the support of the Annan Protectorate Army so quickly. When Zhangchou and Qiong entered the capital, Xianyu Zhongtong hurriedly ascended to the position. If he succeeded, he would lose. But the Southwest was defeated, and more than 100,000 elite troops of the Protectorate of Annan died on the Erhai Plain. There are probably a lot of people who are dissatisfied with him! Now it’s just that they haven’t said it clearly.”
Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.
He didn't know much about the dispatch of troops by the Annan Protectorate Army. Thinking about it now, I'm afraid there were a lot of dissatisfaction with him in the army when the troops were dispatched. exist. The defeat in Erhai made Xianyu Zhongtong lose heart.
The opposition of so many people this time is just to vent their dissatisfaction.
"The army has not yet escaped from the predicament, and the generals in the Annan Protectorate Army are already full of conflicts. This is definitely not a good thing!"
Wang Chong secretly sighed in his heart.
He finally understood a little bit why a considerable part of Annan's Protectorate Army followed his elder brother and father instead of following Xianyu Zhongtong. In all fairness, Xianyu Zhongtong must bear a great deal of responsibility for the battle on the Erhai Plain, but frankly speaking, it was just that Xianyu Zhongtong's talent was not enough to take on the position of the general guard.
Zhangchou Jianqiong's selfishness caused this result. But regardless of this point, Xianyu Zhongtong himself is actually a good general. During the upheavals in the Southwest, he neither colluded with the enemy nor treasoned the country, nor did he ever have such thoughts. Insufficient ability but achieved a high position, this is the result in the end.
So Wang Chong actually didn't have any bad feelings towards him.

"Buzz!"
These thoughts flashed through his mind in a flash, and Wang Chong quickly noticed them. Putting his right hand into his bosom, Wang Chong took out something from his bosom where he kept it close to his body. It wasn't the golden King Song Token, but a black thing.
"Ah! This is... the token of Lord Protector!"
Everyone was surprised at Wang Chong's actions at first, but when they saw clearly the black tiger-head token Wang Chong was holding high in the air, everyone was shocked, and hurriedly bowed down and bowed their heads in salute. Some of the most powerful generals who opposed even jumped off their horses in shock, stood on the ground and knelt down on one knee.
"Unexpectedly, the son actually has the token of the guardian of the lord, but what orders does the lord pass down?"
Everyone lowered their heads one after another, with panic in their respect, and even a little uneasy.
This kind of effect is something that Wang Chong never had when he took out the token of the King of Song.
Zhangchou Jianqiong has been the guardian of the Southwest for decades, ruled with an iron fist, and is known as the Tiger of the Southwest Empire. When he was around, even Meng Shezhao and Wu Sizang did not dare to act rashly, each of them was full of fear. Ge Luofeng and Daqin Ruozan also started this war after Zhangchou Jianqiong was transferred to the capital.
One can imagine Zhangchou Jianqiong's reputation in the Southwest.
Zhangchou Jianqiong regards the Southwest as his personal territory, which can be seen from the scene in front of him. He has been stationed in the Ministry of War for a long time, and he has been the Minister of the Ministry of War for several months, but among the generals in the Southwest, they still respectfully call him "Guardian", not "Shangshu".
"It seems that it was right to ask for Zhangchou Jianqiong's personal token before leaving."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wang Chong felt emotional.
Xianyu Zhongtong has lost the hearts of the people now, and everyone's resentment is too deep. In other words, Southwest is actually equivalent to a state of leaderless dragons to some extent. At this point, I am afraid that even King Song's token cannot be persuaded. But Zhangchou Jianqiong's token... This is the only way to bridge the conflict and make the southwestern generals completely obey him.
"Seeing cards is like seeing people, I must have told you this before, Mr. Zhangchou."
Wang Chong said calmly, even he himself didn't realize that a faint coercion slowly emanated from him:
"Before I set off on the matter in the Southwest, I had discussed it with Master Zhangchou in detail. The Lord has something to say here. From the moment I arrive here, I will handle everything in the Southwest with full authority, and I will act on his behalf. Therefore, who dares to disobey , first kill and then play, everything will be handled by him. Do you understand?"
Wang Chong's voice was steady and majestic. At this moment, where there was still a little bit of childishness, even a veteran in the army might not be able to compare with him.
"yes!"
"Since the young master has the token of protecting the lord, we naturally follow the young master's lead and obey!"
...
Everyone lowered their heads one after another, not daring to breathe.
"Master..."
On the side, Chen Shusun stared at this scene in a daze, and was stunned for a long time.
King Song's token, Zhangchou Jianqiong's token...
Ordinary people can't get any of these two extremely heavy tokens, but Wang Chong has them all. Chen Shusun always thought that Wang Chong was acting on his own and ran to the southwest by himself. But now, even he couldn't see the scene in front of him clearly. It seems that there are more secrets hidden in my young master than I imagined.
"There is no need to follow orders. I just want to tell you one thing. The terrain in the southwest is flat, with few mountains and more hilly plains. Do you think that we can really escape faster than Uzang's iron cavalry? From a In the beginning, escaping from the southwest and evacuating safely did not exist. We had no choice but to choose confrontation."
"The only way to survive this war is for everyone to huddle together to keep warm. If everyone huddles together, the chances of surviving may be very high, but if everyone is scattered and defeated by the Mongolian-Ukrainian coalition forces, In the end, there can only be a dead end!"
