Chapter 1477 Fighting without Worries

In the eyes of all the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, after the troops in the mountains and forests were blasted out, the resistance in Vietnam should be reduced to a minimum. The remaining people had no fighting spirit, but when they really started to fight, Only then did I find this last point difficult.

Li Xiang really guessed it right. The remaining people all support the Vietnamese king. Now they have rebelled against the Tang Dynasty. They are also rebellious officials and traitors in the Tang Dynasty court. Even if they surrender in the future, there will be no chance of them surrendering. Fortunately, the King of Vietnam sent someone to ask for surrender, but Li Xiang immediately turned him back. This means that it is impossible for these people to take the road of surrender.

After the news came out, the Vietnamese also knew that their way was to resist to the end, so during several successive contacts, the Tang army suffered heavy losses, and unexpectedly found that the Vietnamese army's combat effectiveness was not bad. Could it be that what we encountered before were all fake? Of?

Many generals then remembered what Li Xiang said before setting off. The fact that the remaining people were able to leave their homes and follow the King of Vietnam to the south meant that they had finally joined the Vietnamese court, and the Tang Empire did not need this. After all, if people surrender, they may become a destabilizing factor in the future, so these people have no way out, they must win this battle.

Only by winning this battle can they negotiate terms with the Tang Dynasty. Even if they only retain two cities, they still have a chance to survive. If they fail to win, all fate will be in the hands of the Tang army. , they have been classified as traitors and traitors. If they cannot win, the Tang army will probably drive them into the sea. They all know what is happening in the neighboring countries next door.

However, Li Xiang was not an indecisive person. After discovering that the resistance was serious, many generals still thought about restarting peace negotiations, but they were directly blocked by Li Xiang.

We have given up on this strategy before, when we had the greatest advantage. If the attack is frustrated and we want to negotiate with them, it means that we are begging them. In this case, we don’t know what to do. No matter what the Vietnamese asked for, one thing is for sure, no matter what they asked for, the Tang army would not be able to give it.

So Li Xiang immediately convened a military meeting and expressed his and the court's intentions from top to bottom, that is, the last group of Vietnamese must be eliminated. If they are still retained, even if they all surrender , will cause turmoil again and again in this region in the future. The Tang Dynasty court did not have the time to hide and seek with them, so this time they must be defeated in one fell swoop. This is also an effort for peace in the entire South Asia region.

After the military meeting, none of the generals below said anything about the negotiations. They also understood the reasons for Li Xiang's strategy. At the same time, the Vietnamese court also knew about Li Xiang's meeting, and they also Abandon some outdated ideas and prepare to fight to the end with the Tang Dynasty army.

Long Chuan, Vietnam.

Although the remaining Vietnamese army resisted relatively fiercely, the Tang army was no joke after all. They had been fighting in the north and south for so many years, and the opponents they encountered were all more powerful than the Vietnamese army. The reason for their stagnation before Because of the terrain of Vietnam, they have already reached the south, only two to three hundred miles away from the sea. With the support of naval warships, although the Tang army cannot say that it has advanced rapidly, Vietnam The disastrous defeat is just around the corner.

Li Xiang has already told his generals that the entire Vietnam must be occupied in half a month to a month at most. No matter how they counterattack, our army from the north has already arrived, more than 80,000 Soldiers are on the front line. If Vietnam can still hold on under such a favorable attack, it will really be a ghost.

"Boss, three more of our brothers are injured. The fifth brother probably won't survive. They were all handed over to military doctors just now. They will be sent to the rear. Do you have anything else to say?"

A soldier said with some low morale, Wei Shuyu is his commander at the moment. Wei Shuyu already has one hundred and twenty people under his command. This guy's promotion speed is also very fast. Of course, it has something to do with his bravery in combat. Hearing that his subordinates Three more people were injured, and this guy's face didn't look good either.

When we were in the northern mountains and forests, although it was very dangerous there, there were not many injured people there. However, after entering the final war in the south, our subordinates had more and more people on hand, purely because of the surrounding people.

If they were all injured during the battle, it would still make sense, but many soldiers were hiding in ordinary people's homes. According to the orders of the Tang army, if there was no other reason, ordinary people could not be slaughtered casually. After all, this area We will have to use it in the future.

But these Vietnamese troops were not particular at all. After learning that we would not attack ordinary people's villages, they began to break into pieces, and then entered the ordinary people's villages to ambush us. This caused us a lot of trouble. In addition, the local These common people are not good people, and the elderly and children among them will also cause us a lot of trouble.

"Immediately report to the general above and say that we have been injured again because of these bastards. If we continue like this, our damage will reach one-tenth, so we kindly ask the general to give us authorization to attack the surrounding villages. Carry out encirclement and suppression.”

Wei Shuyu said distraughtly that the casualties of the Tang Dynasty army reached one-tenth, which was simply unimaginable. Even if they fought against the Arab Empire's army, it was impossible to reach one-tenth. Now it can reach one-tenth. This high ratio is purely because the other party is not particular about it.

For the sake of the survival of your people, we have given you a way to survive and will not fight in your villages. But you guys actually brought the battlefield to the villages, completely ignoring the lives of your own people.

The soldiers under their command were also very angry. Looking at the village with fire in the distance, they wanted to let the artillery blast for a while. Just now, the three brothers were patrolling around the village on horseback to detect whether there were any armed forces inside. They were injured by the coordinates that flew out of it. One of them was injured in the chest, and he probably wouldn't survive. There was serious snake venom on it, and the other two people also needed to have their limbs amputated... (End of this chapter)
