Lord of the Gaming World Chapter 848: Captive generals (make up last night)
"Saluzi will be kept in the stables of the palace in the future."
Chu Tian saw that Sa Luzi was shot by Hua Mulan, so he planned to take in the injured Sa Luzi.
Saluzi is also one of the six horses that followed Emperor Taizong Li Shimin.
Speaking of which, Li Shimin can be regarded as a legendary figure. He swept the world in his twenties, was born in a famous family, has a virtuous wife, a good horse, and a general of civil servants. He can be said to be a winner in life.
"You will follow me in the future, and I will be responsible for you."
Chu Tian stroked Saluzi's fur. Unlike the black Jueying, Saluzi is a steed with purple hair.
"Ding! The SS level achievement quest 'Six Horses of Zhaoling' is open. Collect the six horses of Quan Maojing, Shifachi, Baihowu, Tellerpi, Qingli, and Saluzi to complete the achievement mission. ."
Chutian rarely hears system reminders.
This time the achievement task turned out to be to gather all six of Tang Taizong's mounts.
Chu Tian didn't know where Mingguan got Sa Luzi, but he knew that it was not easy to collect all six horses.
Each horse has special effects and is invaluable.
It's just that Sa Luzi was so unlucky that she was almost killed by the armor-piercing arrow made by Mo Xie by the 95-force Hua Mulan.
It would be a pity if the dignified Tang Taizong's mount was killed like this.
As for the reward for the achievement mission "Six Horsemen of Zhaoling", Chutian doesn't know what it will be.
The red-clothed cannon was transported back to Summer City.
The power of a tier 10 firearm goes without saying.
However, the disadvantage of the red-clothed cannon is also quite obvious, that is, the mobility of the red-clothed cannon is really poor.
Next, Chutian plans to expedition Liucheng to see if there is a chance to completely take over Liaodong City.
If you can win Liaodong City, then the serious troubles outside the customs will be completely solved, and you don't have to worry about Liaodong's troubles from now on.
Including the scourge of Goryeo, Liaodong is not too peaceful.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, after Cao Cao pacified Yuan Shao's forces, he followed Guo Jia's advice and went on an expedition to western Liaoning, basically pacifying the remnants of the Wuhuan and Yuan clans, and only then did he have the energy to pacify Xilong and Jingzhou in the south.
Chutian was in this position and adopted a strategy similar to that of Cao Cao, trying to pacify western Liaoning.
Guo Jia originally wanted to suggest that Chutian pursue the victory, but he had already realized that Chutian meant to occupy the entire western Liaoning, so he did not specifically persuade Chutian.
Chutian again ordered the captured generals of the Mingguan forces to be brought.
At the end of the war, a small number of seriously injured Wu Wei could not escape in time and were captured by the Xia army.
A military general covered in blood was brought before Chutian.
This military general is not the Murong Ba and Murong Ke brothers that Chu Tian misses, but Zhu Neng, a fierce general under the command of Zhu Di, the ancestor of Ming Chengzu.
Zhu Neng seems unwilling to be a prisoner.
"King Ming has been defeated, and there is only a corner of Liaodong left, and nothing can be done. With Zhu Neng, your skills are enough to be famous in history. Why don't you work for me, fight in all directions, and build an immortal cause?"
Chutian tried to recruit Zhu Neng.
Zhu Neng is a strong cavalry general. If Zhu Neng can be subdued, Chutian's cavalry lineup will be even stronger.
Zhu Neng was silent, but unwilling to surrender.
Chu Tian frowned slightly, the generals in Liaodong had become a group, and it was not easy to recruit these generals.
Chutian's subordinates also tend to form groups, such as the Women's Army and the Khitan Army, but the Liaodong Army is obviously more united and strong.
The Liaodong Army has a sense of honor established in Mingguan, and even if the army in the Central Plains is facing it, they dare to attack directly. That is to say, Zhu Neng and others have their own pride and will not surrender easily.
Unless Mingguan surrendered, representing the interests of the Liaodong army.
The retreating Zu Dashou was also caught with Zhu Neng.
Zu Dashou was captured by the Knights of the Round Table during his retreat.
Zu Dashou, a military general in the late Ming Dynasty, may not be very loyal to Mingguan.
If Chutian spends his time, he can conquer Zu Dashou.
It's just that Zu Dashou doesn't need Chutian to spend so much thought on recruiting.
"Would you like to work for me?"
Chu Tian just asked Zu Dashou.
"I work for King Ming, how can I surrender?"
Zu Dashou also did not surrender directly.
"Treat them and then put them under house arrest."
Chutian imprisoned Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou.
Chutian values Zhu Neng's ability more. Although Zu Dashou has a problem with loyalty, he is still a famous general.
The most important generals such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun always follow their cavalry, and it is not easy to capture them alive.
Lone Bamboo City, Sun Chuanting and a group of defenders finally determined that the Ming army was defeated, because Chu Tian ordered the captured Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou to be brought to the city to show off the force of the Xia army.
Since both Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou were captured alive, and the Xia army did not intend to relieve the siege, it is almost certain that the Ming army has been defeated.
"General, our army has been defeated, and there is no need to defend this city. Where should we go?"
All the generals and small school in Lone Bamboo City all looked at Sun Chuanting.
There are less than half of the 100,000 defenders left.
Houses in the outer city were demolished and razed to the ground.
Sun Chuanting stood on the city wall, looked east, and burst into tears.
Liaodong and Liaoxi generals have formed a system of their own. The defeat now is equivalent to the previous efforts, meaningless.
"There are still more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in Lone Bamboo City. It's not a problem to defend for another month or two. If you are determined to die, you can even defend for another three months. It's just..."
Sun Chuanting intended to continue defending the city, but the defenders in the city lost their fighting spirit and wanted to surrender.
As the general, Sun Chuanting is still in a dilemma.
Geng Yan, Cheng Yu, and Liu Ye continued to put pressure on Sun Chuanting.
In the end, the gate of Lone Bamboo City was still open, and Geng Yin's Youzhou rushed into the city.
The morale of the 40,000 Ming troops in the city is low and there is no fighting spirit.
Geng Yin's Youzhou cavalry gained a lot of experience from participating in the Western Liaoning War. At this time, they were arrogant and they were the victorious party.
"Sun Chuanting, serve King Xia."
Geng Bi rode a war horse and came all the way to Sun Chuanting, wanting to recruit Sun Chuanting and let Sun Chuanting serve for Chutian.
Sun Chuanting just said calmly: "Impossible."
"With your talent, it would be a pity to die like this. Come and protect Sun Chuanting."
Geng Yan also placed Sun Chuanting under house arrest, and waited until the forces in Liaodong were completely pacified before recruiting.
Guzhucheng, the western fortress of Liaoxi County, was occupied by the Xia army, leaving only Liucheng in the east near Liaodong County.
"I didn't expect it to fall short."
Sun Chuanting paled.
40,000 Ming troops were taken prisoner. In order to prevent them from defecting, the generals of the Ming army were imprisoned. After the ordinary soldiers were scattered, they were divided into various armies.
Sun Chuanting's special arm is the "Qin Army", not the soldiers of the Qin State during the Warring States Period, but the officers and soldiers recruited in the Guanzhong area in the late Ming Dynasty to suppress the peasant uprisings of Li Zicheng and others.
Sun Chuanting once made Li Zicheng suffer and was almost killed by Sun Chuanting, but after all, the Ming Dynasty had already declined at that time. Li Zicheng and others could fail countless times, but Sun Chuanting could only fail once.
When Sun Chuanting failed once, he was defeated and died.
Sun Chuanting was still an upper-ranking general in the second-rate, so Mingguan would let him lead a hundred thousand troops to defend Lone Bamboo City.
Sun Chuanting did not live up to Mingguan's expectations, but the main force of the Ming army failed, and it was meaningless to continue defending Lone Bamboo City. At most, it could only contain tens of thousands of Xia troops.
For the Xia army, who occupied the Central Plains, Hebei, Youzhou and other places, they could easily send tens of thousands of troops and horses to besiege Lone Bamboo City.
Three months? Chutian can even be besieged for three years.
Sun Chuanting's Qin army was guarded alone. These people only obeyed Sun Chuanting's orders and were unstable.
The news that Lone Bamboo City was captured by the Xia Army spread throughout the Han Empire!
The loss of a city in Lone Bamboo City cannot affect the overall situation. What really affects the situation of the Han Empire is the loss of the main force of the Liaodong army. In the northern war of the Han Empire, Chutian has a 90% chance of winning.
Lujiang County, Sun Jian is dispatching troops, and he is about to attack Hefei for the third time. He heard that the Xia army had captured Guzhu City, and the main force of the Ming army was defeated, and his expression was complicated.
Sun Ce had grown to the peak at this time, tall and resolute, and Zhou Yu could be called the second commander of Jiangdong. He learned that the main force of the Ming army had failed, so he came to persuade Sun Jian to stop attacking Hefei: "Father, the Xia army defeated the Ming king in western Liaoning, Most of King Ming's main force was defeated, a few generals were captured by King Xia, and Liaodong was in chaos. We led the Jiangdong Army to attack Hefei at this time, and the main force of Xia's army could reach Shouchun at any time. At that time, not to mention that Hefei could not be captured, in case King Xia went to Shouchun in person , to gather forces and counterattack Lujiang County, wouldn't even Lujiang County fall?"
Sun Ce's concerns are not unreasonable.
Because of the teleportation formation, the Xia army can gather troops from a distance very fast.
The cost of the teleportation formation was originally expensive, but in the unification war of the Han Empire, all the princes smashed real money into it regardless of the cost, so the cost of the teleportation formation was nothing in the eyes of the red-eyed princes.
Before the financial bankruptcy, as long as the other party is destroyed, then it is worth it.
Sun Jian stared at Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, although your military strength and ability to command troops and horses have grown, but you have to consider factors other than the battlefield, this is a qualified family owner. You want to inherit my position. , to become the head of the Sun family, you still need to study hard."
"My child is puzzled."
"Although King Xia won and King Ming lost more than half of western Liaoning, King Ming still has the most important Liaodong. The area of Liaodong was originally just a county, and King Ming's expeditions from east to west are now comparable to the size of Jingzhou. The main force of the Xia army is to pacify Liaodong, and it will definitely fall into Liaodong in a short period of time, and spend a lot of time and money to pacify the various tribes in Liaodong. The Xia king cannot get out, so there is no need to worry that the main force of the Xia king will suddenly come to Shouchun City."
"So..."
"Not only that, my brother-in-law urged me to send troops, and I have to give my brother-in-law an explanation."
"Then we made a secret agreement with Lu Su..."
"When attacking Hefei, King Xia will only increase the price for us in order to save trouble."
"His..."
Sun Ce discovered for the first time that his father Sun Jian~IndoMTL.com~ was not just a general who was only good at leading troops to fight.
Sun Jian can establish his own team. Under the command of King Wu Tongque, Sun Jian is relatively independent, equivalent to half a state shepherd, and he also has some means.
"Daddy."
A little girl about four or five years old, carved in pink and jade, grabbed Sun Jian's trousers.
Sun Jian was frightened by the sudden appearance of Sun Shangxiang because he was discussing a very secret event with Sun Ce: "Xiangxiang, why did you sneak in?"
A maid came in and reported: "Master, the young lady made a few children around me cry again..."
“…”
Sun Jian and Sun Ce looked at each other, unable to do anything to the usually restless Sun Shangxiang.
Sun Shangxiang didn't seem to have done anything wrong at all, but took it for granted. The children of the surrounding families were also descendants of Sun Jian's generals, and they did not dare to discuss with the family head's daughter.
