Time Traveling: The Little Hou Ye is the Head of the House
Chapter 230 The Northwest is Dangerous
Gu Junchen was under the city wall, watching the war ahead. 20 vs. [-] of the Northwest Army. The Northwest Army has more infantry and the Fuqiu Kingdom has more cavalry. The advantage of cavalry over infantry is obvious. "Drive..." Gu Junchen drew his sword and rushed over.
"Come on." Seeing Gu Junchen approaching, the enemy army rushed towards him.
Gu Junchen cut them on the horse's back with one sword strike.
"My lord." Li Zhongming galloped over, "My lord, why did you come out?"
"Our army has suffered heavy losses. It is not easy to fight for a long time, so retreat quickly." Gu Junchen said.
"But if we retreat in the first battle..." Li Zhongming hesitated.
"Retreat is not a deserter, but a method of war. It is important to preserve your strength. Order it and retreat." Gu Junchen said loudly.
"Promise." Li Zhongming said immediately, "The army obeys the order, all retreat, and withdraw to the city wall, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law."
"Retreat, retreat quickly."
When the people of Fuqiu saw that they had retreated, they chased after them, and they chased them under the city wall, where they shouted again.
"Why do you want to retreat? Such a retreat made them laugh. Where is the majesty of our country?" Deputy General Dai asked, "Not only the majesty of Hua, but also your majesty, my lord?"
"The majesty of the Hua Kingdom? The majesty of this king?" Gu Junchen lowered his face. "The word majesty is invisible and intangible. Is it more important than the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers?"
Lieutenant General Dai lowered his head.
"My lord, what should we do now? Fuqiu Kingdom suddenly has more than [-] soldiers. What's going on?" Deputy General Ke asked.
General Yu left five lieutenants in total. Vice-General Ke and Vice-General Qian stayed in the barracks during Fuqiu's surprise attack last year. Later, Vice-General Qian was injured.There are still deputy generals Dai, Zhang, and Yang. These three deputy generals followed Li Zhongming to fight at that time. "Fuqiu is a bunch of little bastards, I don't want to kill them without leaving their leather armor behind." Deputy General Qian said.
Lieutenant General Zhang also looked angry: "But now they have twice the number of us, and they mostly have cavalry, how should we fight this battle?" command will do the trick.
"Li Zhongming, what do you think?" Gu Junchen asked.
Li Zhongming thought for a while: "Twice the number of people is not a problem. Throughout the ages, there have been battles in which fewer have won more. But the question is, how do we fight?"
boom boom boom boom
"Report... my lord, the battle drums of Fuqiu Kingdom are beating, and they are going to declare war." Someone came to report.
"My lord, let's go out and kill them without leaving any behind." Deputy General Qian tightened his grip on the knife in his hand.
Gu Junchen frowned: "It's just beating the war drum. There are still three days between the beating of the war drum and the declaration of war."
"But Fuqiu won't care if we stay for three days or not." Deputy General Ke said, "When they beat the war drum, they declare war. Even if we don't go out, they will declare war and attack."
"They suddenly had more than [-] troops, but we didn't know about it. We can only explain that our spies in Fuqiu have been murdered." Deputy General Yang said.
"Vice General Yang is beyond what he said. The most important thing for us now is to prevent them from entering the palace, and then think of a surefire plan." Gu Junchen pondered for a while, "Do you have any way to temporarily prevent them from entering the palace?"
The five lieutenants looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Li Zhongming." Gu Junchen said.
"The end is here."
"Go to the city and collect all the oil from the common people's homes." Gu Junchen said.
"Oil?" Li Zhongming asked in surprise, "Could it be that His Highness wants to?"
"Yes, this method is a bit cruel, but this method is the same as the result of killing our soldiers." Gu Junchen explained, "The five lieutenants will follow me to the city wall, and Li Zhongming will be responsible for the oil. Hurry up."
The soldiers on the city wall listened to the drums in front of them, and their hearts were beating violently.They have always been the only ones to fight against Fuqiu country, but now Fuqiu country counterattacked, and they were in a weak position in the first confrontation just now.Weakness has a great influence on their hearts, and the suppression of the number makes them very panicked.
"My lord." Seeing Gu Junchen and others coming up, all the soldiers saluted immediately.
"All false courtesy will be waived." Gu Junchen said, "Don't worry everyone, this king will coexist with everyone."
The imperial court set up post houses between each city to facilitate the imperial court's communication.The first post station that I hurried to in the [-] miles of the Northwest Army Camp, but never came out again.
The soldier was killed in the post station, and the document Gu Junchen wrote to Emperor Zhaoning was directly destroyed.
This is the post station that must pass through from the northwest to the capital. The number of people in Fuqiu Kingdom is double that of the Northwest Army Camp. Regardless of whether Gu Junchen has a chance of winning, he must tell Emperor Zhaoning about this, so the enemy invaded and occupied the post station earlier. , Preventing the contact between Gu Junchen and Emperor Zhaoning.
The [-] Northwest Army, under the discipline of two generations of Yu family and Li Xu, is very united and strong.If the connection between the capital and the northwest is not blocked, if there is a problem in the capital, it will definitely contact the northwest, and if there is a problem in the northwest, it will definitely contact the northwest, so there must be no connection between the capital and the northwest.
Northwest Barracks
Gu Junchen asked Li Zhongming to go to the city to collect oil, with the purpose of delaying it.If Fuqiu State attacked the city wall, it would pour hot oil on it, and then the rockets would be directly involved.The oil ignites as soon as it meets the fire, and for this reason, it can prevent them from entering the palace.But the amount of oil is limited and cannot last for a few days.
"How long can the current oil last?" Gu Junchen asked.
"Three days, three more days and I can't hold it anymore." Vice-General Yang replied.
"We will fight Fuqiu in three days, and we still don't know the result. However, it will take three days to reach the capital with eight hundred miles." Li Zhongming said, "When the time comes, we will send troops here, and we will last for at least ten days." .”
"Not in a hurry." Gu Junchen said, "I'll wait for the next three days."
There are three states in the northwest, Qiongzhou where Songling County is located, Huangzhou where the northwest border is located, and the last Ningzhou.There are still [-] soldiers in Huangzhou City. Because there are [-] soldiers and horses on the northwest border, there are not many soldiers guarding the city in the three northwest states.Similarly, Qiongzhou and Ningzhou also have [-] soldiers.
Each state has military generals from the third rank and civilian officials from the third rank, while the Northwest General is a general from the third rank.
Kou Qi, who was murdered in the prison of the Ministry of Justice the year before last (the one who sued Zhenxi and was obstructed by Li Luo.), was the supervisor of Huangzhou in the northwest, and a civil servant of the third rank.At the time of Kou Qi, the court sent a new supervisor.
If the northwest border is captured, Huangzhou will be the first state city to suffer.So when Li Zhongming went to collect oil in Huangzhou City, he directly asked the Deputy Commander of Huangzhou to help. When he came back, there was the Deputy Commander of Huangzhou and [-] soldiers under his command.
But against the number of 20, [-] doesn't do much.
At the same time the royal hunting grounds.
"Father, what's the reward for winning No. 1 this time?" The third prince asked energetically, as if No. 1 had already become his possession.But everyone knows that the third prince's archery is not very good, and it is only at the level of jokes among the nobles in the palace.
However, although this question was asked by the third prince, everyone wanted to know.
Emperor Zhaoning looked at them very passionately, so he said: "In previous years, there were bets. Whoever won No. 1 can choose a gift in the bet and get a promise from me. Let's change it this year."
"Your Majesty, no matter how you change it, No. 1 will not belong to a junior minister." Li Luo said.
"Hahaha..." Emperor Zhaoning laughed loudly, "Just stay by my side for fun, and wait to have barbecue with me."
"I heard that the roasted meat roasted by the emperor is very delicious. I am so lucky to have this honor." Li Luo said again.This baby's speaking skills are very slippery, Emperor Zhao Ning just asked him to eat barbecue together, and he didn't say to roast it for him.
But the majestic king of a country will not care about a seven-year-old child.So later, I can only bake it for him to taste
"Father, you haven't said how to change this year." The eldest princess said.She had already changed into her riding attire, but she had the aura of being a heroine.
"You will know when you get No.1." Emperor Zhao Ning said, "I will definitely satisfy your wishes."
According to Emperor Ning's words, everyone didn't know how to guess.Because everyone thinks differently, many people guess what this sentence means.
"The sea." Emperor Ning said, "Bring a bow and arrow."
The Spring Hunt is officially underway, requiring the Emperor to shoot the first arrow.However, what is shot is not the prey, but the target, just the target distance
The location of Emperor Zhaoning is a little far away.The first emperor of Huaguo was a military general, so he was very concerned about the martial arts of his descendants. Although the status of court officials is higher than that of military generals, the qualified families did not give up hiring a martial artist for their children.
The royal family is even more unlikely.
So the eldest prince, second prince or third prince may not be a master, but his skills are not bad.Otherwise, it would be embarrassing for any prince to fail to hit the target in the Spring Hunt after he ascended the throne.
And Emperor Zhaoning was the best in kung fu among the emperors of all dynasties.So there was no difficulty in front of him in the matter of hitting the target.
Arrows whizzed past in front of everyone, and Emperor Zhaoning said loudly: "The spring hunting competition has officially begun."
"Set off."
"Hunting."
The hunters who were ready got on their horses one after another, including some female relatives.Because in the spring hunting, the female relatives also have the right to hunt, and only on this day, they will change into riding clothes, and they will not be criticized by everyone as not being a lady, insulting the family style and so on.Li Luo is a tough guy. At the age of seven, he couldn't even ride a horse.So he frowned, somewhat discouraged.
"Why, you want to go too?" Emperor Zhao Ning said, "If you want to, I will ask the Imperial Forest Army to accompany you. But, can you draw your bow?
"Come on." Seeing Gu Junchen approaching, the enemy army rushed towards him.
Gu Junchen cut them on the horse's back with one sword strike.
"My lord." Li Zhongming galloped over, "My lord, why did you come out?"
"Our army has suffered heavy losses. It is not easy to fight for a long time, so retreat quickly." Gu Junchen said.
"But if we retreat in the first battle..." Li Zhongming hesitated.

"Promise." Li Zhongming said immediately, "The army obeys the order, all retreat, and withdraw to the city wall, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law."
"Retreat, retreat quickly."
When the people of Fuqiu saw that they had retreated, they chased after them, and they chased them under the city wall, where they shouted again.
"Why do you want to retreat? Such a retreat made them laugh. Where is the majesty of our country?" Deputy General Dai asked, "Not only the majesty of Hua, but also your majesty, my lord?"
