Chapter 48 Meteor falls from the sky, defeating the new army!(1/2)
Chang'an, Weiyang Palace.
In the dark hall, an elegant-looking man wearing an emperor's imperial robe, with a Chinese character for his face, was reading by candlelight.
Just looking at his temperament makes people feel like an elegant gentleman.
This person is Wang Mang, the emperor of the new dynasty.
Wang Mang looked at his subordinates' intelligence and smiled to himself: "Haha, the world can be determined!"
This time, 400,000 troops were mobilized, almost half of the national strength.
The Green Forest Army was the leader of the resistance army, and its leader was Liu Xuan, the descendant of King Ding Liu Fa, the son of Emperor Xiaojing, who was known as the "Shenggong".
The other Red Eyebrow Army is useless. As long as Green Lin is annihilated, the world will be settled and his position as emperor will be secure.
400,000 versus 20,000, what would the old Liu family have to fight with themselves?
The flickering candlelight made Wang Mang's face look uncertain: "Here comes someone!"
The eunuch walked in slowly.
"Send the order, wait for the Green Forest Army to be defeated, cut off their Holy Duke's head and send it to the palace. I will let all the rebels in the world see what will happen to them!"
"yes!"
Wang Mang closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Everyone in the world thinks that Wang Mang is an extraordinary saint. He lives a simple life and is humble. He is also diligent and studious, and has almost no shortcomings.
Before Wang Mang usurped the throne, he often showed that he did not love power, but secretly asked his subordinates to mobilize the people and court ministers to build momentum, and then he accepted it with tears in his eyes.
He is good at building momentum and can turn black things into white. In order to attack his political opponents, he did not hesitate to poison his son and frame him as the blame. In the end, he achieved a story of righteousness and annihilation of relatives.
Of course, these are not problems, they are just internal fighting among the nobles. As long as the country is well governed and a prosperous civil and military era is established, all these can be cleared up.
If you can't do this, you will be in disgrace for thousands of years.
At this time, the murals on the side of the hall lit up with yellow light.
In the center of the mural is an immortal sitting cross-legged.
The immortal is sitting on the auspicious clouds, with seven-colored auspicious clouds above his head. He holds a diamond sword in his left hand, a cloud-patterned jade in his right hand, a yellow robe and green sleeves, and an immortal spirit bone.
Sensing the light, Wang Mang opened his eyes and bowed down.
"What are the instructions from the Immortal?"
…………
Kunyang.
20,000 green forest military camp accounts.
The news that the army was approaching the border caused the Green Forest Army to panic. At this time, there were only 9,000 troops in the city, and there were more than 10,000 people in nearby Dingling and Lin counties.
Four hundred thousand troops have arrived in the north of the city, and these more than 10,000 reinforcements are not enough.
Everyone's opinion was surprisingly unanimous, which was to retreat.
But some people hold opposing views.
The crowd was noisy, and the Holy Duke Liu Xuan was a coward by nature. Seeing this scene, he kept wiping his sweat and couldn't say a word for a while.
Liu Xiu, a young partial general in his twenties, stood up:
"We can still win by combining our troops, but it is difficult to preserve our strength if we divide our forces. I mobilized reinforcements at night. Although our army has 20,000, the puppet new army will be exhausted after a long battle and unable to attack for a long time, so it will naturally retreat!"
Only then did he convince the generals.
After that, Liu Xiu set off with the Thirteen Cavalry that night, preparing to mobilize troops.
In fact, he had a bold idea in his heart, but it was too shocking and he didn't dare to say it out loud.
That is to defeat Wang Mang's 400,000 elite troops with 10,000 elite troops. The pseudo-new military system is chaotic and the personnel are uneven, so there is no chance.
Of course, this idea was too risky, and even Liu Xiu thought he might be crazy.
He led his cavalry through the mountains and forests.
Suddenly, a group of scouts appeared in front.
Everyone looked at each other and decided to kill him without anyone noticing.
Just as everyone was approaching, the leading scout knight suddenly turned around, revealing a ferocious Yaksha face.
The Yasha ghost has no skin, revealing bright red flesh and blood, and the scouts next to him are also ferocious-looking evil ghosts.
Whizzing!
Yasha's body flashed and his shadow was no longer visible. The cavalry beside Liu Xiu fell down one after another, and he was the only one left in the end.
Looking at the slowly approaching Yaksha ghost, Liu Xiu felt despair.
There were rumors that there were monsters in Wang Mang's army. He had never believed it. But now that there were indeed monsters, Kunyang City would definitely not be able to defend it.
Yaksha opened his bloody mouth, the bloody air rushed towards his face, and his claws were as sharp as swords.
Liu Xiu drew out his sword and was about to fight to the death.
Wow!
A wave of heat hit him, and a flaming sword penetrated Yaksha's head.
Then there were two tongues of fire, burning the evil ghost into ashes.
Liu Xiu saw an immortal in white falling down on a raft.
Immortal?
After what happened with the evil yaksha ghost, I can now accept seeing an immortal.
Seeing the immortal standing in front of him, Liu Xiu bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, the immortal, for saving me."
The person who came was none other than Song Lin.
When he arrived in Kunyang, he saw the traces of the demon and easily eliminated the demon.
"Is this Wang Mang's army?" Song Lin looked at the corpse of the demon that fell to the ground.
"Exactly!"
"Then whose subordinate are you? Why are you here late at night?"
Wang Mang is indeed related to demons.
"I am Liu Xiu, the partial general of the Green Forest Army. I am traveling on a starry night to find reinforcements at Dingling."
"Liu Xiu? Are you a member of the Han family?"
Song Lin looked at Liu Xiu.
"Exactly."
"Yes, you have purple energy in your body, and you will definitely become the master of the Han Dynasty in the future."
Song Lin couldn't help but spoil the story again.
"The Immortal has been praised too much. Now he can't even pass the Kunyang test, so how can he talk about hegemony?"
He did have this ambition in his heart, but when he saw the ghosts and gods in Wang Mang's army, he suddenly felt that there was no chance of winning.
"It doesn't matter, you can call for reinforcements yourself. I will send someone to assist you in the future. When you succeed, do one thing for me."
"Sir, please give me some advice? No matter how difficult it is, Xiu is bound to do it."
Liu Xiu was overjoyed. If he could really help him stand out from many heroes and seize the artifact, he would be willing to do a hundred things.
"Okay, you go."
Song Lin waved his right hand, and the two Taixu Mingjing soldiers disappeared and appeared beside Liu Xiu.
"What is this?" Liu Xiu was startled.
"These are the Dharma Protectors. They can protect you. Let's find reinforcements."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Lin drove Guanyuecha and left.
"Immortals actually have the ability to control ghosts and gods!"
Liu Xiu got on his horse and looked at the two vicious ghosts and gods around him. When he thought that they were protecting him, he felt a sense of security increased.
On the evening of the next day, Liu Xiu led 17,000 infantry and cavalry to reinforce Kunyang.
Liu Xiu led his army to charge into the Wang Yi base camp. His indomitable momentum caused the new army to become somewhat confused.
Seeing this, the Kunyang defenders in the city also went out to fight.
Although the new army is chaotic, it is still numerous in number.
When the news reached Wang Yi of the new army, Wang Yi laughed and said: "We have millions of troops who should be destroyed if we pass by. Now we are slaughtering this city, marching in with blood, singing before and dancing behind, don't worry about it!"
"Even if there are heavenly soldiers, they can't stop the army!"
boom!
