Casualties
Chapter 871:Casualties
Three days later, in Chang'an City, Xingqing Palace, the temple of government affairs.
Li Longji, wearing a purple denrain suit, sat on the dragon chair, looking better than the previous days, but still appeared haggard and anxious, and the Cory stood beside him with his hand, from time to time sweeping to Li Longji's side with a concerned eye.
Under His Majesty, more than a dozen courtiers stood in two rows, and Shen Feng was in it.
After the brief ceremony, Li Longji looked heavy and looked at Shen Feng and asked, "General Shen, the 70,000 gods and weapons army that was attacked in the middle of Huangxiang outside the Tongguan, how are the casualties?"
Li Yuan is currently in Chang'an City to recuperate, and today did not appear in this court.Listening to Li Longji's question, Shen Feng immediately listed and replied: "Your Majesty, the battlefield is cleared, and the casualties have just been counted out."General Li Yuanzheng led the 70,000 Shenwu Army in the narrow road of Huangxiang, suddenly encountered the Anlu Mountain rebels attack, before and after the road was blocked, arrows and rocks fell from the sky, in danger can not fight back, it is indeed heavy casualties.70,000 Shenwu Army, with a total of nearly 40,000 casualties.”
As soon as I heard this number, the courtiers in the court took a breath of cool air and looked at each other.
They had also heard of the battle of Huangxiang, from the ambushes to the end of the war, which was a total of more than two hours.
But they did not expect that the casualties of the 70,000 gods and weapons were so great, and most of them had been damaged.
It is no wonder that He Millennium has set up ambush on both sides of the five-li narrow road in Huangxiang Saka, killing the divine army with arrows, rain and falling stones, not only there are no casualties on his side, but also the speed of killing is very fast.
Fortunately, Shen Feng arrived in time, and forced the rebels led by He Millennium with fire attack, Li Yiye forced the entrance, the 70,000 gods and weapons army did not erupt, and the commander Li Yuanzheng did not die for the country.
Li Longji slightly closed his eyes, but also heartache, this 100,000 god army is the elite division of the Tang Dynasty, is a very important military force of the arching Beijing division, now because of this ambushes, more than half of the soldiers have been lost, the commander is also wounded, the casualties are really huge.
And it is precisely because he believed too much in that Anlu Mountain before, sent the 70,000 gods and weapons army to his Pingluo town, to Anlu Mountain as a reinforcement, these 70,000 gods and weapons army will suffer such a heavy loss!
Silence is a dead silence in the hall.
A moment later, Li Longji opened his eyes, his face was a look of anger, and said angrily, "This rebel thief Anlu Mountain, I will cut him a thousand knives and break his body!"
“Yes, this evil thief, Mount Anlu, is wicked, and God is not allowed!”
"It's a thousand swords, this Anlu Mountain is the ancient sinner of my great Tang Dynasty!"
“Funny and treacherous, it is certainly a man’s will.”
The courtiers in the court also began to follow Li Longji, and their faces were also indignant.
Seeing this scene, Shen Feng's heart was a sneer.
Before Anlu Mountain also appeared in this work in the temple, when he was the angtuye two towns of the envoy, Li Longji's son.
And these indignant ministers, at that time, they were respectful to the unique Hu people of the Tang Dynasty, and some of them were vying to please.
Now the situation has changed, and it is completely another face.
At this time, Yang Guozhong was listed, his face was awe, and Lang said: "Your Majesty, this Anlu Mountain wolf son's ambition, just rebelled and escaped from Chang'an, there is not much, it is a murderer under the weapon army of my god, it is really unforgivable!"The court suggested that the court should go out to the army as soon as possible to completely eliminate Anlu Mountain and its rebel party!”
Hearing this, Li Longji's face did not have any excitement, but it was somewhat gloomy.
Some other courtiers also echoed: "Yes, we should go out as soon as possible to eliminate this Anlu Mountain!"
“Mr. Chen, you are a soldier’s book, what do you think of this?”After a moment of silence, Li Longji looked at Chen Xuanli, who was standing on the side, and asked.
Standing on top of this court, Chen Xuanli's face has always been extremely heavy.Listening to Li Longji's question, Chen Xuanli slightly fainted, then listed, and replied: "Mr. Yang said well, Anlu Mountain such a heinous thief, the court will be eliminated."But only a few days later, the Shenwu Army suffered a serious setback, and at this time it was really difficult for the court to go out in the army.”
Yang Guozhong did not understand any military and state affairs, and when he heard Chen Xuanli say so, he immediately turned his head and asked, “What is the difficulty of eradicating a rebellious courtier, I am going to Tang Tianwei Hehe?”
Chen Xuanli looked cold and immediately replied: "I don't want to be natural."But I am the soldier of the Tang Dynasty, in the town, in the border, not in Gyeonggi.In Chang'an City, in addition to the sixteen guards and 50,000 horses, it is the 100,000 godly armed forces stationed outside the city.Now that the Shenwu Army has lost most of them, the 16-guard soldiers and horses in Chang'an City cannot be called, and it will take time to transfer troops from the western region and other towns, and now it is difficult for the court to immediately send troops to eradicate rebellion."
What Chen Xuanli said is the truth.The military strength of Datang is subordinate, focusing on the town and the border, but the military strength of the central government is weak.There is no problem in the peace, but once there is an internal rebellion, the evils of this are revealed.In this case, it is also directly related to Li Longji.
After listening to Chen Xuanli, Li Longji's face was even more gloomy and silent.
Shen Feng thought in his heart that Chen Xuanli's words were direct, I am afraid that Li Longji would be unhappy in his heart.Since Chen Xuanli has already made the words clear in front of the public, he asked for more words, and also helped Chen Xuanli to share it.
In addition, this Yang Guozhong is afraid that there is also a connection with the land robber and the landlord's prison mountain, and Shen Feng also wants to point him.
Just listen to Shen Feng look at Li Longji and then said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Chen just now said that Mr. Chen was right, the court is now out of the army to eradicate the rebellion, it is really difficult."Not only those of Chen Xuanli just now, Anlu Mountain has heavy soldiers in his three towns, and almost half of my soldiers and horses are in his hands.And Anlu Mountain has appointed Hu Jun Hu, and their loyalty to Mount Anlu is far better than to the court!If Mount Anlu can return to his town alive, he will certainly rebel, and the situation will be more critical at that time!”
Then there was a whispering voice above the hall.
Li Longji's face was gloomy and still silent.
Shen Feng then said: "In addition, I am afraid that the Anlu Mountain and Anjun Mountain brothers have eyeliner and eyes and ears in Chang'an City, rather than rushing to send troops, it is better to clear the inside and outside of the dynasty first, so as not to disclose military events!"
