Chapter 241 The world is as black as crows

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I already know what the other party wants to do?" Li Jing frowned and said, "This matter is a bit troublesome. It will only harm your Majesty's reputation in the history books in the future."

"General, how do you say this?" Lu Zhaoci asked in surprise.

"It must be that Jieli saw that it was difficult for Mo Dao Shou to break, and that Chen's Six Flower Formation was very mysterious. They didn't know how good it was, so they came up with such a vicious plan to break Chen's formation."

Li Jing said calmly: "They must have taken the people of Shengzhou as the vanguard to resist the attack of Modao formation, archers, and crossbowmen. The armies slowly pushed each other, and then used cavalry to attack the left and right flanks of our army. In this way, we

The army's swordsmen will lose their offensive advantage, and the situation on the battlefield will return to what it was before, with the opponent taking the initiative on the battlefield with their powerful cavalry."

"Ah! If this method is really used, this strategy is simply too vicious. How can I order my soldiers to attack these innocent people?" Lu Zhaoci changed slightly. There is no humanitarianism in this world.

Anything that can be used as an effective means of attack can be used in any way as long as it can lead to victory in the end. Although the opponent's method is not clever, it is very effective.

"Your Majesty. But please rest assured that I have a complete plan to ensure that the other party's methods will not harm the interests of the imperial court." Li Jing showed a mysterious smile on his face. What he said would not harm the interests of the imperial court was actually true.

Said it would not damage Lu Zhaoci's reputation.

"That's very good." Lu Zhaoci felt relieved when he heard this. He believed in Li Jing. Since Li Jing said such things, it was obvious that he was sure of it. A smile appeared on his face and he said with a smile:

"I have Brother Jing, who can withstand thousands of troops. No matter what plots and tricks Jieli has, I am not afraid of him."

"Your Majesty looks up to the old minister so much." Even though Li Jing had seen a lot of storms, from being unappreciated when he was young, to being a general now, below one person and above ten thousand people, but when he saw this person in front of him,

In this situation, I can only show a wry smile in my heart. It seems that this emperor is a little, a little sinister, or it is more accurate to say that he is lazy.

"It would be the biggest waste if we don't use our talents. Brother Jing may not be as good as me when I charge into battle, and Brother Jing may not be as good as me at scheming, but if I are to command on the spot, I am not as good as brother Jing. I am where I am today, not only because

The destiny is mine. What’s more important is that I know how to employ people. I have both civil and military skills. The civilized text is Cen Wen. The warrior is you, Li Jing. My world was regained by you and me." Lu Zhaoci looked straight.

said.

"I am willing to serve your Majesty." Li Jing's eyes turned slightly red and he cupped his hands and said.

"Soon after, I will build the first floor, called Lingyan Pavilion, in which there will be enshrined the statues of twenty-four ministers. I will ask famous artists to write and hang the portraits of Cen Wenwen and Brother Jing on it, so that they can be worshiped by the royal family every year. Let's

Brother Jing's name will go down in history." Lu Zhaoci patted Li Jing's shoulder and said.

"I thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Jing bowed without hesitation. Civil servants and military generals not only pursue their own reputation, but more importantly, pursue leaving a name in history. Li Jing is the same, not to mention that he can accept the royal family's annual invitation.

What an honor it is to offer sacrifices and worship!

"Brother Jing, I wonder how Ming Dynasty is going to deal with the situation at hand? These people can't be killed, and our army can't retreat even if they retreat!" Although Lu Zhaoci still had a smile on his face, there was a hint of smile on his face.

Worry cannot be hidden.

"Your Majesty, I dare to ask, if I have no other way, what should I do?" Li Jing suddenly asked.

Lu Zhaoci was caught off guard by the question. The boss opened his eyes for a long time before laughing loudly and said: "Everything depends on man and God. Although I am the emperor, I can't be sure what God's will is. I can only follow the trend."

Why! I don’t know if the general is satisfied with my answer.”….

"I understand." Li Jing nodded and said, "As a minister, I should respect the emperor's orders."

"Okay!" Lu Zhaoci nodded and said, "General, this battle depends on you."

"Your Majesty, there is a canyon about a hundred miles south of here, which is the main road of the Central Plains. This road is very strange. There is a small road on both sides of it. It is difficult for ordinary people to find it. A hundred thousand troops can be hidden in it. Your Majesty.

Since our front army cannot attack them, then we will attack their rear army." Li Jing's eyes flickered, indescribably weird.

"I understand." Lu Zhaoci nodded and said, "In that case, it depends on the general. Naturally, I have the final say here."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Jing said solemnly.

However, when darkness fell, countless black shadows strangely appeared in the rear camp of the Tang Army and quickly disappeared into the night. They disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared before.

"Boom!"

"Woo!"

As soon as the sky dawned, the Tang army heard the rumbling of drums and the loud sound of trumpets on the opposite side. The soldiers of the Tang army looked at the Turkic army on the opposite side in surprise, but they saw not only countless Turkic soldiers on the opposite side, riding on their horses in a showy manner, but also

Before the battlefield, there were tens of thousands of Tang people who were being driven by them and stood between the two armies. The three armies couldn't help but make a fuss. This situation had been quickly reported to Lu Zhao

Words and generals.

"Your Majesty, this Jieli is bullshit, he actually came up with such a method." Cheng Yaojin glanced around, and suddenly seemed to notice something, and exclaimed: "Hey, why is the general missing? Lao Hei

Tan and Luo Chaozi are also gone. They are not up yet! How rude. Your Majesty, I must have been too late for inspection last night. Please forgive me."

"Instruct the three armies to set off from the stronghold and retreat twenty miles to set up camp." Lu Zhaoci frowned and said to Cheng Yaojin calmly.

"Break out the stronghold and retreat? Your Majesty, you said you want to retreat?" Cheng Yaojin opened his mouth. He had never thought that Lu Zhaoci would withdraw from the stronghold without even fighting. This was his fault.

Unexpectedly, when he was about to ask again, he saw that Lu Zhaoci had already disappeared before his eyes.

"General Cheng, don't you see that those people in front of you are all my subjects of the Tang Dynasty?" Zu Ming said lightly: "Your Majesty is the Lord of the world, how can you do things that harm your own people? You can only

Slowly retreat to look for fighters."

"What Zu Lang said is absolutely true." Li Junxian nodded and said: "Your Majesty is benevolent and loves the people, so how can you let your soldiers deal with your own people with swords and guns? Once you do this, how will your Majesty be recorded in the history books in the future?

"

"That's right! Humph, this guy is a bastard for taking advantage of Jieli." Cheng Yaojin spat at Jieli's army fiercely.

"Withdraw!" As dozens of war horses rushed out of the Chinese army's tent, the news of the withdrawal quickly spread throughout the three armies.

They fled in embarrassment, but now, luckily, the army actually wanted to withdraw from the camp, which puzzled the three armies. After learning the real reason, the three armies shouted for Your Majesty's mercy and cursed Jie for his cunning and cunning. They packed their bags one after another.

Under the protection of Mo DaoShou and cavalry, it took a full half day for the hundreds of thousands of troops to slowly retreat back. They did not set up camp until twenty miles away.

"Great Khan, Lu Zhaoci has withdrawn his troops." In the Turkic tent, Zhi Shisi Li and others rushed in one after another, with excitement on their faces. The depression of a few days ago was suddenly swept away, and now they finally vomited.

He breathed a sigh of relief and forced Lu Zhaoci to withdraw his troops. Although this method is not very bright, as long as the battle is won, there is no difference between bright or despicable. Look, even Tu Li, who was opposed and despised at the beginning, Qi

Don’t Bi Heli and Bi Heli look happy on their faces?…

"This Lu Zhaoci is really just trying to gain fame. For the sake of so-called benevolence and righteousness, he is simply seeking death." Jie Li laughed loudly and said: "Since he has retreated, we will chase him all the way to Chang'an. Let's see.

Let’s see where Lu Zhaoci can retreat to. Haha, if he wants to kill these people, he will lose the support and support of the people in the Central Plains. The Central Plains may return to the situation at the end of the Sui Dynasty. By then

, is our Turkic opportunity. The opportunity to take over the Central Plains. You will all become our great Turkic nobles by then, and you and I will enjoy the colorful world of the Central Plains."

"Listen to the Khan's order." Many Turkic nobles shouted.

"Pursue!" Jieli Khan waved his hand in high spirits, and instantly he heard a roaring sound from the Turkic camp. The Turkic soldiers who were surprised by Mo Daoshou at the beginning were finally able to stand up at this time, and started shouting

With roars one after another, they mounted their war horses, and their iron hoofs rumbled, causing the earth to tremble, sweeping through everything around them, driving away the old, weak, women and children of Shengzhou, and slowly pressing down on Lu Zhaoci's army.

………………

"Humph, it's this move again. Doesn't this Jieli have no other means besides this move?" The next day, when the sky was just bright, I heard the rumble of drums and the sound of horns outside the camp.

Continuous, shaking the world, there was a cry of killing all over the land. The cannon fodder placed in front seemed to be more at this time. Apparently, Jieli escorted it from the nearby city. It was also to increase the number.

Lu Zhaoci felt stressed.

"I really want to go out and fight, even if I die on the battlefield, it's okay." Cheng Yaojin said fiercely.

"I'm afraid your Majesty is more anxious than you at this time. But what's strange is that we haven't seen the general. Even General Luo Shixin and General Yuchi have disappeared. It's really strange." Zu Ming said cautiously: "Two generals, you two

Tell me if His Majesty is hiding something from me!"

"Zu Lang is your Majesty's disciple, why don't you go and ask?" Li Junxian said with a smile.

Zu Ming immediately shrank his head when he heard this. Although he was Lu Zhaoci's disciple and a very important disciple, some things involved military secrets and it was not easy to find out clearly. When the time came, Lu Zhaoci would

Ci was thinking about it, but it was not something Zu Ming could bear.

"Since Your Majesty has an idea, we'd better not disturb His Majesty." Zu Ming said with a smile.

"Your Majesty has an order to order the three armies to reorganize their equipment and retreat thirty miles." At this time, dozens of cavalry were seen galloping out of the Chinese army's tent. These cavalry were dressed in embroidered envoy uniforms and were galloping.

Extremely majestic.

"When did the Jinyiwei also arrive?" Zu Ming frowned. Not everyone can wear embroidered clothes. This kind of flying fish clothing can only be worn by people from the Jinyiwei. Nowadays, there are so many people in the Chinese army's tent.

The embroidered messenger showed that the Jinyiwei had already entered the camp. Everyone was very surprised.

"Hey, these guys are always elusive. Maybe there might be a Jinyiwei right next to you. Maybe even the person on your pillow is also a Jinyiwei. What's so strange about this?" Li Junxian laughed.

He said, but there was no trace of surprise on his face. Jinyiwei and Nianganzhu had a bad reputation among the officials and generals of the Tang Dynasty, especially Nianganzhu, who were all extremely mysterious figures.

"Retreat thirty miles! What does your majesty want to do?" Cheng Yaojin frowned and said: "Yesterday the troops retreated twenty miles, and today the troops retreated thirty miles. What medicine is your majesty selling in this gourd? If you retreat again,

I’m afraid we’re almost at the edge of the Great Wall, what should we do?”

"Let's go! I believe your majesty must have your majesty's plan." Zu Ming said with a smile. On the one hand, Lu Zhaoci is his teacher, and on the other hand, the general Li Jing did not show up. It can be seen that here, here

There must be other strategies behind the retreat. If I am not wrong, I am afraid that the target is Jie Li. Considering that the Jinyi guards have already arrived, Jie Li's strategy may have been discovered by everyone before it was implemented.

Otherwise, the retreat would not have been so fast and smooth...

"What, Lu Zhaoci has retreated again!" In Jieli's tent, Jieli Khan's face was full of joy, and his eyes were full of pride. He did not expect that a strategy could have such an effect, forcing him to

Lu Zhaoci retreated fifty miles without even fighting.

"Congratulations Khan, congratulations Khan. If Lu Zhaoci retreats like this, I'm afraid he will reach the Great Wall soon." The proud look on Bo Tie's face became even more powerful. Who came up with this plan?

It wasn't his Bo Tie's fault. Look at how powerful my Bo Tie is. With a little strategy, Lu Zhaoci's troops can be pushed back fifty miles. It is even more likely that they will continue to retreat.

"Khan, Lu Zhaoci is a sinister person. This time he led an army of 500,000 people to confront us here. He clearly wants to destroy our Turkic people. At the very least, he wants to severely damage our Turkic people. Imagine, this 500,000-strong army
