Chapter 1179 Encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao

If King Yong really had thousands of troops, why would Wu Yi come out and just send any Chinese-funded person to take care of the matter? The reason why many people declined was because they had no soldiers and the risk was extremely high.

In fact, it was not that King Yong did not have troops at his disposal. Just as Mr. Zhao said before, the rest of the troops were fighting hard. For a while, they could not be mobilized and fell into a situation where they were relatively short of troops.

Dreaming back at midnight, he thought that he might have made a serious mistake this time, causing huge casualties, and thus losing the chance to fight for the throne. King Yong felt both fear and unwillingness in his heart. He even thought about going into battle himself and commanding the army with his own prestige. , turning the situation around in one fell swoop.

But as soon as this idea was raised, it was suppressed by others. If King Yong could not become emperor, they would have to find another family at worst. And if King Yong died, they would be buried with him, so naturally they had to hold it down.

And King Yong is in Liuchen County, so Liuchen County is destined to have thousands of prince guards to protect King Yong. Otherwise, if the enemy sends a partial army to attack Huanglong and capture King Yong alive, let alone King Yong, the entire The face of the Daji Dynasty will be completely lost.

Although this possibility is unlikely, after all, if a small country does this, it will really fight to the death. Once the emperor launches the war machine, the small country will perish, and the top military officials will not be able to protect them.

If King Yong leads a large number of his own troops, they may all fall, let alone others?

This kind of near-impossible thing, this kind of thing that everyone rejects, is now Wu Yi's turn. Some people are asking King Yong to ask Wu Yi to issue a military order so as not to escape guilt in the future.

King Yong was a little hesitant. After all, he himself knew how dangerous this trip was. Wu Yi seemed to be irritated and received the military order very wisely. Then he paid homage to King Yong and strode away, not wanting to stay for a moment. Here, these people have no ability to make suggestions, but they have a lot of ability to find fault with others.

There is nothing perfect in this world. It’s just a matter of balancing the two evils, whichever is greater. It’s okay to think that Wu Yi has selfish motives when he proposes to encircle Wei and save Zhao. But this method is definitely better than directly rescuing Wen Conglong. .

In fact, this suggestion has not been proposed to King Yong before, and it is not an ancient strategy. Anyone who has read some military history books can come up with it, just because he is worried that it may lead to the annihilation of Wen Conglong's army. King Yong said to think about it.

Wu Yi's identity is as dark as it is dark. Isn't he just trying to make a fool of himself lately? There are a lot of lice on my body, but I don’t feel itchy.

Anyway, everyone knows that the two of them are at odds, and others still want to save a face.

After Wu Yi left the city, the soldiers of the Chen family had already gathered outside. There were not 800 soldiers. Including the servants, the number was 100. They were not as organized as the regular army, but they were equipped with armor, weapons and horses. It was said that they were half of the Chen family. It’s not an exaggeration.

In fact, if there were eight hundred fully armed private soldiers, King Yong would have already started to deal with the Chen family.

Not long after, under the order of King Yong, another wealthy family, the Liu family, also sent a hundred people to join Wu Yi's team. Their composition was similar to that of the Chen family.

Finally, before dark, you will provide ten people from each family, and I will provide five. If it is not enough, we will choose some Baojia from the neighbors, and finally we will have 800 people.

The clothes are weird and the weapons are different. Fortunately, they all have horses, one for each person, but Wu Yi does not have the ability to equip them with multiple horses.

King Yong looked at the scene in front of him from the top of the city, his eyebrows furrowed. If you were King Yong, I believe you would have the same expression. Can such an army really be able to surround Wei and rescue Zhao? King Yong had no confidence at all.

King Yong said to his left and right: "Allocate two thousand cavalry from my bodyguard for Chen Yan to drive!"

There was hesitation on the left and right, King Yong gave a gentle hum, and the left and right had to agree. You know, the cavalry around King Yong was only about 2,000 in total. This time, King Yong almost handed over all the cavalry. Wu Yi.

These two thousand people are both helping hands and monitoring people. Everyone present knows it well.

Two thousand King Yong's personal guards joined him. Wu Yi paid homage to King Yong from afar without stopping, and rushed on the road late at night. Now that the front line was urgent, he really couldn't waste any time.

It was just that those who were traveling at night, those who fell behind, those who got lost, or even worse, took advantage of the darkness to become deserters. In addition to the two thousand guards of King Yong, the eight hundred private soldiers were missing by nearly a hundred people. Even after dawn, Thirty or forty people joined the team one after another, and the others probably couldn't keep up with the team.

With such a high proportion of escapes, Wu Yi's face was naturally not much better. Since the expedition, his expression had been tense, like an iron man. He ran nearly a thousand miles in two days and arrived at Hengchuan Ridge. That is to say, in the border area, if you don't bring thousands of troops, you can do it in one day.

The team was extremely exhausted. Wu Yi ordered a rest. After hearing the order, many people fell down to sleep as if they had been granted amnesty. The sound of snoring could not be heard. On the battlefield, there are various environments, and sleeping is the happiest thing. You can't sleep and don't have the energy to fight. Once the war starts, you will be the first person to die.

However, the guards of King Yong were okay. After all, they had been following him from the Central Capital City. They were selected from thousands of troops. Their physical fitness was so good that they basically fell asleep smoothly after hearing the order to sleep. These other private soldiers had various problems, tossing and turning, and walked listlessly.

If King Yong had not previously allocated another two thousand people, it would be difficult to imagine how these private soldiers could be used to achieve the strategic purpose of encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao.

After letting the group of people sleep for three hours, Wu Yi urged them to go on the road again. Many people complained, but they had no choice but to go on the road because of Wu Yi's "obscene power".

The riding whip whipped in the air, making a shrill sound that made people shudder. If it hit the body, it would be red and swollen, and the skin would be torn apart. Some people with strong strength could kill someone with just one whip.

"Sir, if you want to go to Sanchuankou, you should take another way!" The guard led his horse forward and said to Wu Yi.

"When did I say I was going to Sanchuankou? Before leaving, did His Highness not tell you that we were going to surround Wei and rescue Zhao?"

"Your Excellency, I think that if we directly attack the capital of a small country, even if it is a small country, the capital will be built in a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. With a crowd of thousands of people, it will be difficult to conquer in a short time, and it is better to wander around. Around Sanchuankou, the enemy will not dare to annihilate our army!"

Wu Yi became somewhat interested in this person and asked, "What is your name?"
