Chapter 161 Hero
Liangzhou City Wall.
Everyone present looked at this scene in disbelief. If they had not received the news from Li Xiang in advance, they would have thought that Tuyuhun's army had begun to attack Liangzhou City.
Looking from the city wall at this moment, I saw a large group of people in the distance. Except for a few cavalrymen of the Tang Dynasty, the rest of the people were all dressed in Tyuhun grassland costumes.
"I thought we two brothers were going to have a fierce battle this time. I was secretly happy two days ago. Only after seeing this scene did I finally know that we are far different from this kid."
Cheng Chumo said with some amusement that from the time he set out from Chang'an City to now, he had always felt that he was more useful than Li Xiang on the battlefield, but after seeing the scene in front of him, he finally understood that all the younger generation of generals in the Tang Dynasty had None of them are as good as the boy in front of me. His contribution is real.
"Who says otherwise! It is said that a tiger father has no son. If the prince is so cowardly, why did he give birth to such a son?"
Qin Huaiyu was also very depressed. He captured more than 5,000 prisoners, and Cheng Chumo captured more than 4,000 prisoners. They can be regarded as leaving their names in the history of the Tang Dynasty. The two of them were quite happy, but looking at After seeing the scene in front of them, the two of them felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Both of them had this idea, let alone Li Zhi who was standing aside. Li Zhi clenched his two fists and didn't know what he was thinking. Although it was his nephew who won, he probably won't win at this moment. He was not happy for his nephew.
"Based on the way this kid did things, I estimate that more people died. If he hadn't retreated in the end, he wouldn't have captured so many prisoners."
General Qin Qiong also sighed. Although the two armies have not yet decided the winner, the scene in front of them is extremely shocking. I believe that the top leaders of Tuyuhun have also received the news. They have suffered heavy losses this time.
"I seem to have quite a few soldiers. When I lent them to him, I was a little scared. Now it seems that this boy is treated as an equal."
Cheng Yaojin said with a smile that he had been looking at his men and was afraid that Li Xiang would treat them as cannon fodder. After all, there were people close to him on the battlefield. If Li Xiang did not treat his own people as cannon fodder, it would be very likely. We, Lao Cheng, will be treated as cannon fodder.
"You'd better not worry about people like you. These people followed him and fought on the grassland. It must be Liu Bei who borrowed money from Jingzhou and never repaid it."
When General Qin Qiong said this, Cheng Yaojin suddenly felt a chill in his heart. This may indeed happen. If he takes advantage of our three thousand elites, is there any question of coming back?
But I also thought that Li Xiang is a very particular person. Even if we detain these three thousand elites, there must be an explanation for what happens. It is not up to us to decide what conditions we will impose. Li Xiang has always given people the impression that he values people. Don't care about money.
"Open the city gate, and I will leave the city in person."
Seeing that the vanguard was less than three miles away from Liangzhou City, General Qin Qiong gave the order directly. The generals next to him were also more interesting. When they came back, they only left a few lieutenants. Of course, compared with Li Xiang's achievements, what's the point? It's not even a little bit worse. As for Li Zhi next to him, he has returned to his camp at this moment. He doesn't want to watch Li Xiangyao show off his power here.
Li Xiang saw people coming out of the city on his horse. The ones at the front were Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin. Li Xiang immediately rushed to meet them. After all, these were his immediate superiors.
"so what have you thought of?"
On the way forward, Li Xiang saw Cheng Yaojin's general Liu Guihu. This man followed Li Xiang and killed well, but after returning to the city, he must return to Cheng Yaojin's camp.
"Your Highness, I am willing to follow you because of my humble position. I feel happy to follow you to kill the enemy. However, Master Cheng is an old general, and I really can't say that."
Liu Guihu said with some worry, this person is an extremely conscientious person. If it were other people without conscience, who can now climb the high branches of the emperor's eldest grandson, it is estimated that these people will not even consider it and will definitely follow Li Xiang directly. This The guy hesitated all the way, not knowing what to choose.
"Just put your heart in your stomach, and I will talk about the rest. Thousands of you will follow me from now on. No matter what conditions Lao Cheng proposes, I will accept them. Of course you Go back and ask clearly, if anyone is still willing to follow General Cheng, then I won’t force you to stay here.”
Li Xiang has put forward a liberal policy, and everyone is free to come and go. After all, these people are also treasures in Cheng Yaojin's place. If they don't want to come over, we can't use force.
The performance on the battlefield can be seen in the usual training. Compared with the soldiers exchanged by the system, these people are still slightly inadequate, but they can be trained like this in this era, which also shows that Cheng Yaojin usually pays attention to it. Li Xiang also had to see how he could make this deal with Cheng Yaojin.
While thinking about this problem, the two generals could be clearly seen in front of them. When they were about a stone's throw away, Li Xiang dismounted from his horse and hurried to meet them.
The two generals also nodded in their hearts. This boy was indeed neither arrogant nor impetuous. It was said that he had achieved such a great victory and had the status of the emperor's eldest grandson. Even if he came on horseback, no one said anything, but This kid still followed the rules, and this alone has made many people feel comfortable.
"How can I expect two generals to come in person if I am in such a humble position?"
Li Xiang said this, but he straightened his back and felt proud.
"It has been more than a month since the Tang Dynasty sent troops to Tuyuhun. Now it is the harvest season. With tens of thousands of prisoners like you, Tuyuhun can't sleep at all. How can we not go out of the city to meet our greatest hero?"
General Qin Qiong was also happy. In the past, when he spoke, he always said half would be left and half would be left. Today, he was also sincerely happy. After all, this time it took less than two months and he had already achieved such a great victory, and it was the first time he had killed someone. We entered the Tuyuhun grassland and found the magic weapon to defeat them. In the next period of time, we have taken the initiative in the entire war, and we don't have to worry about Tuyuhun not surrendering.
"I'm not here to greet the hero, I'm here to see my men. Don't use up all my men, kid. That's my Lao Cheng's hard work."
Cheng Yaojin acted like a miser, which made everyone laugh, but he was also really happy for Li Xiang's victory...
