Chastity Layman

"Report!"

"Report to the general," a knight galloped up and got off his horse. He reported the battle situation in front of the generals, "We have completely defeated the Tuyuhun people, Tuyuhun Xuan Wang Murong Wei, Gaochang Wang Murong Xiaojun, Bai Lan Wang Liang Qucong, etc. Fifty-three princes and princes were captured by me, and the other thirteen princes were beheaded."

"Where's that traitor Murong Cheng?" Xi Junmai asked.

The knight hesitated for a moment, "Return to the general. Murong Cheng has not been found captured yet, nor has he been found among the dead in battle. Maybe he is still hiding among the captives, or where he died has not been found yet."

Xi Junmai snorted coldly, "Of course, it is also possible that he has already escaped."

The knight replied, "We have completely sealed off this valley, and they cannot fly."

Hou Junji touched half of his face, he was punched by Xi Junmei just now and knocked out two of his teeth, now half of his face is swollen like a pig's face.

"Search for me. If you are alive, you want to see people, if you want to die, you want to see corpses."

"Those who refuse to surrender, don't surrender, just kill, kill them all. Those who have not reported yet, will not accept their surrender for a while." Hou Junji was now murderous, and the anger in his heart was burning all the time. There is nowhere to vent his anger.

This was originally a huge victory, but because of the serious injury of the crown prince, this victory was overshadowed. Everyone was unhappy, and even panicked in their hearts. They all secretly prayed that His Highness the crown prince would wake up and keep that leg .

Otherwise, not only will there be no credit for this expedition, but it will be a serious crime.

Ice and snow.

Tang Jun is cleaning the battlefield.

Hou Junji brought 20,000 horses to join the battle group at the critical moment, preventing the Tuyuhun people from breaking through. At the end of the battle, another 20,000 came, leaving only 10,000 behind.

Gao Kan saw that the battle here was over. The more than 100,000 people of the Tuyuhun people were completely defeated, and the main force was defeated by tens of thousands of young and strong. The rest of the women, children, old and weak also had nowhere to escape. Hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous animals, more than 100,000 people, not to mention the capture and beheading of more than 60 famous kings, there is only one Murong Cheng who has not been found yet.

"Hou Shuai, Tuoba Chici and others led 30,000 Tibetan cavalry less than a hundred miles away, and they are fighting a Tuyuhun tribe with tens of thousands of people. Do you want to send troops to reinforce them?"

Hou Junji didn't like Tuoba Chici and these Hu chieftains at all, especially after the prince's accident this time, he blamed them all. Although he wasted time, those horsemen were cavalry, they The former army teamed up with the prince, they should be consistent with the prince, if they don't delay, the prince has 50,000 cavalry, no matter how hard they fight, they will not lose or be injured.

"Tuoba Chici and Xifeng Burai brought 30,000 horsemen, can't they defeat 20,000 to 30,000 Tuyuhun herdsmen? They are not 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers, but a group of herdsmen with women, children, old and weak, driving livestock. You can't even beat this, so go eat shit!" Hou Junji yelled, "Don't pay attention to them, let them fend for themselves!"

He punched the table angrily.

"Mobilize people to sweep up the other camps of the Tuyuhun people, and wipe them out before they know that they have lost the news and fled here!"

It was supposed to be 70,000 horses on foot, but now after these few battles, the crown prince's 20,000 elite cavalry, there are still 5,000 wounded soldiers left here, and 2,000 lightly wounded soldiers in another camp, with several thousand seriously injured. Of Hou Junji's 50,000 infantry, there are still 10,000 who have not arrived, and the loss of the remaining 40,000 is minimal, and the combat effectiveness is still there.

He decided to draw 40,000 troops and divide them into three groups to encircle and suppress the three Tuyuhun camps nearby.

Regarding this decision, several generals Gao Kan did not object, and offered to lead troops.

Tuyuhun's main force was defeated twice, Hou Junji defeated another group, and another group was confronting Fanqi, and there are still several groups left, but they are not strong enough, so hurry up and mop them up.

Everyone's heart was simmering, and they all wanted to get it back from the Tuyuhun people.

······

"The prince just won a big victory!"

In Luoyang Palace, the emperor said to the ministers who had been summoned urgently.

"Congratulations to the sage." Xu Jingzong, the secretary of the school and the governor of the court, hurriedly congratulated him, with a flattering smile on his face. But the emperor's face was as frosty, and he didn't show half happiness, which surprised Xu Jingzong, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't show it in such a hurry.

"How was the result?" Changsun Wuji asked tentatively. The emperor's expression made him understand that there seemed to be something inside this great victory. He thought in his heart, could it be that this big victory is an antinomian, and the crown prince actually lost the battle? Maybe, it's very possible, after all, according to the news from Longyou before, the prince's behavior is indeed too ridiculous, as long as it's not a big defeat, it's fine.

"The results of the war were very victorious. Murong Cheng, who killed Tuyuhun and usurped the Khan, captured alive more than fifty famous kings and generals including his prime ministers Xuan Wang, Gaochang King, and Bailan King, and killed more than ten famous kings. With more than 230,000 mouths, nearly one million miscellaneous animals were seized, and countless tents, weapons and other supplies, and the Tuyuhun rebels were wiped out in one battle!" The emperor's voice was still cold, these brilliant victories did not make the emperor the slightest happy .

Changsun Wuji was stunned, Xu Jingzong was stunned, even Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, Wei Zheng and others were stunned.

Such a brilliant result?

Chai Shao should not have arrived in Longyou yet.

"Do you, dear friends, know who commanded this battle? It wasn't Hou Junji, Cheng Yaojin, Xi Junmai, Sagu Wu Ren, this battle was all decided and commanded by Prince Chengqian."

hiss!

The hall was full of inhalation sounds, I couldn't believe it.

"Firstly, the prince pretended to be absurd and marched slowly all the way. In fact, he secretly sent people to scout out the traces of the Tuyuhun people. After he had grasped all the traces of the Tuyuhun people, he deliberately stayed at Haiyan Fort after he was only two hundred miles away from the Tuyuhun people. Hunting and playing all day, paralyzing the Tuyuhun people, and then when the heavy snow fell and the wind and snow came together, they suddenly rushed forward."

"The crown prince personally led the elite cavalry to gallop for two hundred li in the wind and snow. With 5,000 fine cavalry as the vanguard, they broke through the Tuyuhun Murong Cheng's camp of more than 100,000 people. Afterwards, Gao Kan's generals led 15,000 cavalry to arrive and completely defeated Murong Cheng. Murong Cheng's army was defeated and left. One night later, Cheng Qian personally led 10,000 cavalry to pursue for 30 miles, and fought Murong Cheng with more than 100,000 horses.

With 10,000 against 130,000, they fought fiercely for a day, defeated Tuyuhun several times, and finally defeated him. Finally, Hou Junji arrived and wiped out the bandits! "

"Then divide the troops into several groups, sweeping away the rest of the Tuyuhun tribe like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves..."

A picture appeared in the minds of all the ministers and ministers. His Royal Highness was wearing a helmet and armor like a god of war descending into the world, taking the lead and invincible.

Just listening, how do you feel that it would be more acceptable if His Royal Highness was replaced by Qin Lang?

At the beginning Qin Lang led the Longyou army to conquer Dangxiang and attack Tuyuhun, that seems to be the case, right?

His Royal Highness, is this a continuation of the legend?

It's just such a great victory, why doesn't the emperor seem very happy?

Xu Jingzong thought secretly, did the prince lie about his military achievements? The Longyou army did win a big battle, but it was not commanded by the prince, and the prince did not take the lead in charging into the battle. It was Hou Gao's generals who fought, but the prince took the credit for himself?

This may be more reasonable, after all, the crown prince did so many ridiculous things before, but now it is a tactical fraud, and everyone can't turn the corner.

"His Majesty?"

Changsun Wuji asked directly.

"You don't need to speculate, don't doubt, I told you the news after verification. There is no doubt that this victory is indeed brilliant, and this battle, from decision-making to command, and even to the charge, was indeed fought by the crown prince. .”

"Then why is the sage unhappy? Could it be that the sage thinks that the crown prince is too reckless to put himself in danger?" Changsun Wuji asked again.

The emperor sighed.

Long sigh.

"Qin Lang taught a good student. I never imagined that Chengqian learned military art from Qin Lang and would have such accomplishments. Although this battle was too risky, it was really good. It's just,"

"only·····"

The emperor didn't even say two things, but couldn't continue.

Changsun Wuji was so anxious that he almost stomped his feet, but you should hurry up and say what.

"Your Majesty, although the prince's use of troops is a bit dangerous, but the prince is young and vigorous, and it is normal for him to be greedy for merit. After this battle, the prince must be more mature?" Changsun Wuji said.

"Why!"

"The prince won the battle, but he was seriously injured. He fell off the horse and broke his right leg when he killed the enemy. He was in a coma and had a high fever for a day and a night. Although he finally woke up, his leg was seriously injured. The military doctor gave first aid and took good care of him. I am also disabled, this leg... is lame!"

When the emperor said the word lame, tears fell from his eyes.

The prince just gave him a big surprise, but gave him a huge heartache.

The crown prince, who was less than twenty years old, was lame in one leg.

When he first received the news, he couldn't believe it.

He insisted on suppressing the news, and the three divisions of Mizhao went to check the news, but they got the same news in the end. The prince did win a big battle, and even reported the detailed battle process, but the prince was indeed seriously injured. It's okay, but my leg is limping.

All the ministers were stunned.

Today is the New Year's Eve of the 10th year of Zhenguan, and tomorrow is Zhengdan of the 11th year of Zhenguan. There will be a grand court meeting. At that time, envoys from all over the world will come, and envoys from all over the country will also participate.

On such a grand occasion, they have been urging the emperor to order the prince to come to Luoyang, but who would have thought that what they were waiting for was such news?

"Your Majesty, I am willing to take the best imperial doctors from Luoyang and Chang'an to Longyou immediately. They will surely heal the prince's leg injury." Changsun Wuji said loudly.

The emperor shook his head.

"I have already understood very clearly that Chengqian's leg was seriously injured, and he was treated immediately at that time, but even if the imperial doctors from the capital were present at that time, they were still powerless to recover."

Li Shimin didn't want to say these things, but these were already facts.

No one can be more heartbroken than him, the prince he has high hopes for, the prince who has been cultivated for ten years, was once so smart, then so virtuous, and then later absurd.

When he first received the good news, he thought that the prince had grown up, and even though there were times when he was deviant, he had already possessed such remarkable military talents, and Lao Huai felt relieved.

But who would have thought that the news that the prince was seriously injured and limped would follow, a crippled prince?

Li Shimin could not accept it.

He sent people to repeatedly verify the news, and even sent an imperial doctor. He has been hiding the news, but one reply after another made him finally fully admit it.

"Please let me go to Longyou to pick up the crown prince back to Luo!" Changsun Wuji felt very heavy.

"I impeach Hou Junji!" Xu Jingzong stood up and played loudly, "Hou Junji's crime is unforgivable..."
