The strongest Marquis in history

Wang Qi and Xia Houhu led the people and entered the camp.

Li Guangli looked at the enemies who had poured in with a solemn expression.It's just that at the moment, he can't retreat.Because once they retreat, the granary in the camp will be completely gone, and the former army will also completely collapse.

The soldiers under Li Guangli's command had already assembled.Li Guangli didn't dare to waste time, and immediately ordered the attack.

The soldiers under his command rushed forward.

Wave after wave of soldiers rushed forward and met Wang Qi and Xia Houhu's army in a blink of an eye.

Although Wang Qi only brought 3000 people, this batch of [-] elites were all elites from Lu Shengqi's direct line.Seeing that Wang Qi and Xia Houhu are invincible now, the fighting spirit of each soldier is even more aroused.

The soldiers' offensive was even more ferocious.

All the soldiers under Li Guangli's command were sleepy.Especially when he was suddenly attacked, he was caught off guard.

Not fully prepared.

The two sides fought face to face, and the line of defense was torn apart.

Wang Qi and Xia Houhu kept rushing towards the enemy ranks, beheading officers and soldiers one by one.

Seeing this, Li Guangli could only let his soldiers resist quickly.It's just that during this kind of fighting, the people brought by Wang Qi started to set fires everywhere in the camp and set fire to the granaries in the camp.

In order to ensure that the granary is not affected by rain and snow, the outside of the grain stacks in the granary are covered with wormwood, which is to prevent cold and moisture, and also to prevent rain and snow.

Right now the soldiers are setting fires everywhere, although there is no climate for the time being, the fires burning everywhere make the camp further chaotic.

On the one hand, Li Guangli had to resist the attack, and on the other hand, he had to stop the arson.

in trouble.

He couldn't keep the granary.

It is really the army that was killed, it is too powerful.

Unmatched.

Even though the number of troops under his command is large, the combat effectiveness of the two sides is not at the same level at all.Therefore, under the current situation, Li Guangli had already felt the intention to quit.

However, although Li Guangli said that he was afraid and planned to retreat, he did not dare to retreat.Once the important granary is lost from his hands, it is a serious crime to be executed.

"Block it, kill me!"

"Stop it!"

"Our reinforcements will arrive soon. Hold on to me, hold on tight."

Li Guangli kept shouting and shouting.

The fighting here, as well as the burning fire, will definitely spread the news.So even if Li Guangli was defeated, even if he wanted to retreat with fear in his heart, he did not dare to retreat, he gritted his teeth and persisted.

It's just that when Li Guangli was holding on, Wang Qi had already discovered where Li Guangli was.

He galloped his horse and slashed with his sword.

In a short time, he was already close to Li Guangli.

Wang Qi rode his horse and killed him, and Li Guangli also saw Wang Qilai at this time.Because Wang Qi now, although he has two beards on his lips, he looks very thin, and he is young, so Li Guangli never avoided it directly.

Instead, he drew his sword out of its sheath, and directly charged at Wang Qi.

"kill!"

Li Guangli swung the sword in his hand and chopped it off.

Wang Qi and Li Guangli met face to face, Tai'a Sword went forward, the blades collided, and there was a crisp sound of ding, Li Guangli's sword broke, and Wang Qi's Tai'a Sword continued to move forward.

The sword light disappeared in a flash.

across Li Guangli's neck.

Li Guangli looked at the broken sword in his hand, widened his eyes and said, "I..."

"puff!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a bloodstain on his neck burst.

The bright red blood spurted out immediately, Li Guangli's body shook twice, and he fell directly to the ground.

In a blink of an eye, there was no breath.

Wang Qi sealed his throat with a sword and killed Li Guangli, and continued to charge forward.After Li Guangli was killed, as soon as the news came out, the soldiers under Li Guangli's command began to flee in all directions, and the number of resisters decreased rapidly.

The pressure on the soldiers under Wang Qi's command decreased, and more and more soldiers went to set fire.As a result, the camp was already on fire in a short period of time.

The entire camp turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Chapter 308 Analyzing the Situation

The fire burned fiercely.

Fires were burning everywhere, and the entire camp was filled with heat waves.

At this time, Wang Qi stopped fighting. He led the soldiers out of the camp, no longer thinking about it, and directly ordered the withdrawal of the troops.He had to return to Zicheng quickly and tell Lu Shengqi the news.

Let Lu Shengqi prepare for the next decisive battle.

The sky was still dark, and the army led by Wang Qi had already rushed back to Linzi.At this time, Wang Qi can be sure that the news of Jiushanling has not yet reached Cheng Mao.

After all, it was a night attack that happened at night.

As soon as the news of Wang Qi's return reached Lu Shengqi's ears, he came out to greet him personally. Seeing Wang Qi rushing in, Lu Shengqi brought Wang Qi back to the military camp in the city.

In the camp, Lu Shengqi did not rush to ask for news, but asked someone to bring a pot of hot wine, filled Wang Qi's wine himself, and said, "Mr. Wang, this is warm hot wine, let's have a glass of wine first." .”

Wang Qi smiled and said, "Thank you, Commander."

He took the wine bottle, raised his head and drank it down.Not to mention, in the chilly weather, after drinking a cup of hot wine, my whole body warmed up, and it was no longer as cold as before.

Only then did Lu Shengqi sit down with Wang Qi and asked, "Sir, what happened to the night attack?"

Wang Qi said: "Commander, the attack on Cheng Mao's camp did not have much effect. After all, it was just to harass."

Lu Shengqi said: "It's okay, this is only the first day."

With Wang Qi around, Lu Shengqi felt that he had a backbone and that he could turn the situation around.

Hearing Wang Qi's words, he didn't feel any disappointment.

Wang Qi smiled and continued: "Commander, although we didn't gain much by attacking Cheng Mao's camp, but this time, we quietly rushed to the rear of Cheng Mao's camp, near Jiushanling, which is about ten miles away. The fire burned 20 shi of his food. Today, Cheng Mao only has four days of food in the camp. Next, Cheng Mao will run out of food."

"really?"

After Lu Shengqi heard it, he stood up abruptly, his face full of shock and disbelief.

Was surprised by Wang Qi.

Unexpectedly, Wang Qi found Cheng Mao's food and grass, and completely burned the food and grass.

This is a big gain.

Wang Qi nodded and said with a smile: "Last night, I sneaked into Cheng Mao's barracks and inquired about the granary. That's why I went directly to Jiushanling. Commander, now that Cheng Mao has no food, the opportunity has come."

Lu Shengqi said: "It is indeed an opportunity."

Zhu Yumin also looked excited, and took advantage of the situation: "Commander, in my opinion, now is an excellent opportunity to take the initiative. As soon as the news reached Cheng Mao's ears, Cheng Mao's food and grass were cut off, so he had no choice but to retreat. Now, we should Take advantage of the victory to pursue."

He Peiqi said: "The commander-in-chief is also seconded. We and Cheng Mao have maintained a stalemate. Now, we have seized the opportunity to attack. Now that the opportunity arises, it is time to fight. With one effort, we will completely destroy Cheng Mao's camp and defeat other side."

Both Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi were excited.

The opportunity is here.

Their chance to defeat Cheng Mao came.

When Lu Shengqi heard Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi's persuasion, he was quite excited, and even the expression on his face turned red because of the slight excitement.However, Lu Shengqi was not in a hurry, he turned to look at Wang Qi.

Lu Shengqi looked like a corporal and asked, "Mr. Wang, what do you think we should do?"

He trusted Wang Qi more.

Because Wang Qi is obviously stronger than Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi.

Wang Qi smiled slightly and replied, "Commander, I have the opposite opinion."

Lu Shengqi said: "What do you mean?"

Wang Qi said: "I don't think it should be pursued. Even now, what we need to do is to attack Cheng Mao on the basis of defense. Because in the future, I think Cheng Mao will not retreat, but will take the initiative to attack Linzi. He will put all one's eggs in one basket."

Zhu Yumin said: "Mr. Wang, it's not possible."

He Peiqi said: "Why?"

Lu Shengqi also nodded, and asked: "Mr. Wang, I am also puzzled. Cheng Mao's army has lost its food and grass. The [-] people lack food and grass, and the army may even mutiny. At this time, why didn't Cheng Mao retreat, instead Is it to attack?"

Wang Qi smiled and said, "Commander, the reason is actually very simple."

Lu Shengqi said: "How to say?"

Wang Qi explained: "The imperial court has always been very concerned about the situation in Qingzhou. This time, the imperial court gave Cheng Mao strong support and entrusted Cheng Mao with full authority to handle Qingzhou's affairs."

"However, Cheng Mao lost."

"As soon as the news spreads back to Chang'an, the government and the public will definitely be shaken. After losing the battle, someone must come out to take the blame, and give the court, the world, and the people an explanation."

"So Cheng Mao's withdrawal will inevitably be questioned by the court. Based on this alone, I conclude that Cheng Mao will put all his eggs in one basket. After all, Cheng Mao still has a few days of food."

Wang Qi said: "As long as Cheng Mao breaks Linzi and defeats the commander-in-chief, even if he loses food and grass, everything will be different and he will not be questioned."

"Cheng Mao broke Linzi, and he can still get food and grass, and the army will not be in chaos."

"Conversely, even if Cheng Mao suffered another defeat, the situation of his retreat is the same as the retreat with the troops now. Although the soldiers are damaged, it is similar to him."

"So, I conclude that Cheng Mao will choose to put all his eggs in one basket."

Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "It is impossible for Cheng Mao to withdraw his army obediently because the food and grass were burned, and go back to accept the crime honestly."

Lu Shengqi's eyes lit up when he heard it.

He stroked the beard under his chin, and praised: "Mr. Wang's analysis is indeed reasonable, and I agree."

Zhu Yumin thought for a while, and said, "I'm the one who made the problem simple. I'm afraid the current Cheng Mao would like us to attack. Then, he can fight to resolve the war."

He Peiqi said: "Good advice, Mr. Wang!"

Wang Qi smiled and said: "Commander, since everyone agrees with my current analysis, then we will make arrangements according to this analysis. Of course, we must be prepared just in case. If Cheng Mao really withdraws directly, we can pursue. I The next suggestion is this..."

Immediately, Wang Qi elaborated on the follow-up arrangements.

Lu Shengqi nodded hurriedly after listening.He didn't ask Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi for any more advice, and immediately called the soldiers around him to make arrangements.

Follow Wang Qi's suggestion for layout.

Waiting for Cheng Mao to strike.

After everything was arranged on Lu Shengqi's side, time passed, and when it was almost dawn, the news that the Jiushanling granary was burned also spread to the imperial court Cheng Mao's camp.

When Cheng Mao got the news that the granary had been burned, he was stunned.

How can it be?

The granary is in Jiushanling, this is a secret, how could the news be exposed.

Even Li Guangli died.

The granary was also set on fire.

Cheng Mao's heart suddenly panicked.Last night, when Lu Shengqi's people harassed the camp, he didn't take it seriously at all, and didn't take it seriously.

As long as his army is there and there is enough food, even if Lu Shengqi changes his strategy, it becomes different.But Cheng Mao still has the advantage.

Cheng Mao did not expect that the situation would suddenly change overnight.

"Come on!"

Cheng Mao immediately ordered.

The soldiers entered, bowing and saluting.

Cheng Mao ordered: "Immediately inform Zeng Tong that there will be important matters to discuss."

"Yes!"

The soldiers immediately went to deliver the order.
