Chapter 232 Bloody King Mandu Fifteen
When Huang Chao heard the name of Caizhou Army, he looked like a woman. He didn't know where he got his strength. He turned over and sat up, but he was silent. If Qin Zongquan wanted to come to rescue, if he could come to rescue, could he wait until now, but he had no movement?
Either Qin Zongquan was defeated and could not be rescued. Or Qin Zongquan betrayed Huang Chao. However, the combat power of the Caizhou army was not inferior to that of the Qi army. Huang Chao was even more inclined to the latter situation. But the facts were just the opposite. No one expected Duan Mingyu's small steel cannons could have such a large formation. They only needed to shoot a few guns. All the elite troops were wiped out in just an instant. Duan Mingyu invented gunpowder and strongly supported Fan Fu in military production. Now he finally saw the results. The mortar that shocked the world was thousands of years ahead of schedule and won the top of all military and national weapons.
At this moment, the general of the personal army knew that his family had said the wrong thing. He poked Huang Chao's pain point and was so scared that he lowered his head. Huang Chao was silent for a while. He waved his hand and smiled reluctantly: "Some family crossed the river lightly. It was no wonder that others... Jiang Song. You have been with me for more than twenty years. Some family said something to you. In this battle formation, it is no longer a place I should stay. General Zhao and his generals who dare not even watch fighting. Can they lead the army? General Zhao and his friends fought bloody battles. The Qi Juner Lang has been fighting until now. I am very grateful. I will be rewarded in the future. I will give it to you."
He was moved when Huang Chao said it. The central general named Jiang Song was also a little moved. He bowed his head and bowed and said, "Your Majesty. As long as I am here, I will definitely protect Your Majesty's safety..."
He gritted his teeth. Because Huang Chao said such a heart-warming thing to him, he finally said the words he had made.
Huang Chao's expression changed. When Jiang Song raised his head, he calmed down. He waved his hand and said, "You are loyal. How can I not know about it? Just go. I will naturally have a sense of responsibility."
Jiang Song bowed again in confusion and wondered. He didn't know whether his heartfelt words were right or wrong. Finally, he gritted his teeth again. Now in the bloody battle, the Hedong Army has not retreated. He still wants to do so much. What to do. When he repels the Liao army and protects the camp, he stands firmly at the feet of Yanjing before speaking.
Seeing Jiang Song get up and strode away from the central army tent. The tent is silent for a moment, and it is immediately like a stolen fire. The staff and civil servants all burst out.
In terms of war, they really couldn't even get into Huang Chao's side. They had no other ability except to cause trouble. But when it comes to political struggles that concern their own wealth and life, they suddenly seemed extremely smart.
The biggest enemy of this group of civil servants was not the Hedong Army, nor the entire Li Tang court, but the generals of the Great Qi regime. Since Huang Chao's uprising, he has always relied on military generals and was incredible. He pushed their civil servant group to the point wherever they were. Now Huang Chao's face turned pale and his lips were closed. He couldn't say a word, obviously he was extremely worried about the war.
A civil official seized the opportunity and stepped out. He began to criticize the generals for their unfavorable battles and were slow to treat the soldiers. The civil official talked and had a good manner. The ugly expression that was almost scared when the Liao army shouted the most violently. It seemed that it had never happened. He folded his fingers and almost gestured to Huang Chao's face in a hurry. Such words. Huang Chao's nephews could not interfere with each other. He did not have that kind of professional eloquence. Seeing Huang Chao's face darkened, they became nervous.
The air in the tent seemed to be about to solidify. During a while, I heard the sound of orders from outside the tent, and everyone in the tent was stunned. The eyes of the civil servants and aides were concentrated on Huang Chao's face.
After a long time, I heard Huang Chao ask weakly: "So what should I do? I really can't take Bianliang... I'm old, I can't even move the guy..."
Several civil servants looked at each other. Huang Chao was no longer ambitious. It was a bad signal. If Huang Chao lost confidence in this battle, suffered a defeat, he would fight all his strength. They would have to be unlucky. It was the civil servant who had just spoken. The light flashed in his eyes. Looking at Huang Chao and shouted: "The entire Qi army will retreat to the south of the King of Bianhe River. Your Majesty is the commander of the entire army. If you retreat, preserve your strength and slowly seek great achievements, it is just a military order. All major matters are determined by Your Majesty alone."
Huang Chao suddenly felt cold all over. He knew that he had retreated after Wangmandu Dukou. The Hedong Army was staring at the front. The floating bridge on the Bian River was broken. How could he retreat? Even if he could escape, he would not save Lin Yan's retreat. The Great Qi army was already in a low morale. However, he was in a desperate situation. The Great Qi army could only fight to the death. Once he left, the entire army collapsed and the enemy was on the back. It can be seen what kind of consequence the entire Qi army would end up.
Huang Chao was very angry. He wanted to be the emperor, to establish his own hegemony, to be prosperous and wealthy, to continue his descendants for generations. But when he was about to fight, he could no longer find the feeling of being on the battlefield. Behind the strong support, he was full of fear, fearing that he would be destroyed by the Great Qi army under the city of Bianliang......
But once this retreat, these tens of thousands of people followed him from a turbulent country and fought for more than ten years and thousands of miles into the corpse of the north bank of the Bian River. He would never survive again. This decision was not easy for Huang Chao to make.
But I just hold on here. If I fail, I will escape. If I cannot escape, I will become the primary victim of the Great Qi regime. I will lose all my glory and wealth. If I escape, I will also go to Shamen Island or the smoky land of Lingnan. I have grown old. Maybe I will be glorious before I escaped from the Tang court's sphere of influence. I still don't know if I can survive.
If you order a retreat at this moment, you may be able to preserve your own strength. As long as you move to a few years and rest, Li Tang, the corrupt court, will definitely not be able to withstand a few years. By then, when the Tang Dynasty is about to end, you will rise up again. The major event will be more confident.
Not to mention. In the face of this fierce and extremely fierce offensive by the Hedong Army, it is still unknown whether the entire army can support it. It is very likely that his life will be lost among the chaos army. Even if there is a one-tenth chance, he can't afford it. After all, life is precious. Only once, life is gone. Gods and horses are all floating clouds.
