"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1126
The Zhendong Army led by Chai Sheng fought with tens of thousands of Northern Army cavalry led by Li Yi in Tacheng.
? On the battlefield, there was a hustle and bustle of shouting and killing. Under the shadow of swords and swords, flesh and blood flew everywhere.
Although most of the Zhendong Army are infantry, they are also one of the four major field troops of the Far Eastern Dynasty.
The cavalry of the Northern Army were brave and good at fighting, but they were caught in a melee with the infantry. The horse's charge advantage could not be brought into play, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Moreover, the army led by Li Yi has been exhausted after rushing and attacking all the way these days, and the physical strength of the cavalry and horses are not at their peak.
Therefore, at the beginning of the battle, the weaker Zhendong Army fought a tie with the Northern Army cavalry, and no one could do anything about it.
However, with the passage of time, the superiority of the Zhendong Army gradually came into play. The cavalry of the Northern Army were constantly cut off, and the casualties also rose in a straight line.
However, the cavalry unit led by Marshal Li Yi repeatedly charged and killed the Zhendong Army. Although the Zhendong Army suffered huge losses, they were also entangled and could not rush out, so they could only fall into a passive melee.
"Send someone to urge Li Yuanqing to quickly lead his troops to the battlefield to fight!"
Seeing that his cavalry unit fell into a melee with the Zhendong Army and could not withdraw. After the situation gradually became unfavorable to them, Li Yi had to send someone to urge the main force behind.
Their main force carried a large amount of food and grass behind them, and the cavalry led by him charged forward lightly, so as long as the main force arrived, they would be able to win the battle.
Several bloody messengers broke out of the encirclement and galloped towards the main force of the Northern Army.
In fact, the distance between the light forward led by Li Yi and the main cavalry brigade is not very far, because they are all cavalry troops, and the speed is not much different.
So the messenger who was in charge of urging the follow-up soon arrived at the temporary camp of the main force, and met Li Yuanqing, the general in charge of military affairs.
"General, the young commander has an order, the army hurried to the battlefield and put into battle!" The messenger conveyed Li Yi's order.
"I see."
Facing the critical situation ahead, General Li Yuanqing seemed indifferent, not in a hurry at all.
"General, the Young Marshal is now in a melee with the Zhendong Army and urgently needs reinforcements! Please send troops quickly, General!"
Seeing General Li Yuanqing's indifferent appearance, a soldier in charge of conveying the order was also taken aback for a moment, and immediately cupped his fists and said.
"You have worked hard, go down and rest first."
After Li Yuanqing waved his hand, several personal guards stepped into the military tent, and brought down several messengers who were hesitant to speak.
"General, what should we do now?"
After several messengers sent back by Li Yi were taken down, more than a dozen generals sitting in the military tent set their sights on Li Yuanqing, the general in charge of military affairs.
Li Yuanqing, as the adopted son of Generalissimo Li Kou, was the No. 3 figure in the Northern Army after Marshal Li Yi.
Li Yuanqing is brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, and he is also quite kind to the generals, so he is very popular.
It's just that Li Yuanqing is not Li Kou's own son, but only an adopted son, so even though he has served as a general, Li Yi, as a young marshal, still treats him like a domestic slave and beats and scolds him frequently.
Li Yuanqing's dissatisfaction with Li Yi, the young marshal, has a long history, but after all, he needs the identity of the adopted son, so when Li Kou was alive, he always swallowed his anger.
But the situation is different now. Marshal Li Kou is dead, and he has just received an order from Emperor Longtian, asking him to take over the northern army and assist the shadow guards in detaining the young marshal Li Yi.
It means that Li Yuanqing finally waited until the day when he turned around. With the support of Emperor Longtian, he no longer had to live on the breath of Li Yi.
"The young commander is brave and good at fighting. It is easy to defeat the Zhendong army. Let's not meddle in it."
After Li Yuanqing glanced at the dozen or so generals sitting in the military tent, he said lightly.
After hearing Li Yuanqing's words, these northern army generals immediately understood what he meant, that is, they deliberately stood on the sidelines and waited for Li Yi's defeat.
These generals were also loyal supporters of Li Kou, the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses at the time.?Always arrogant and domineering, the loyalty to the young commander Li Yi who is harsh to his subordinates is not so high.
If they were asked to make a choice, they would rather choose to follow Li Yuanqing, the great general, than the bitter young marshal Li Yi.
And now they are standing at the crossroads of this choice, that is, they have to choose between Li Yuanqing and the young marshal Li Yi.
Thinking of Li Yi's poor character, and thinking of Li Yuanqing's generosity and the support of Emperor Longtian, they naturally tended to Li Yuanqing.
"What the general said is that the young commander has always been brave and good at fighting, but we will only add to the chaos when we go."
"We listen to the general."
Those generals who were able to climb to this position are naturally not fools. After looking at each other, they quickly expressed their attitudes.
"You generals have worked hard and made great achievements. I will ask His Majesty to ask for credit for you later."
Li Yuanqing also drew a big cake with a smile, and made a promise that could not be expected.
"Thank you, General!"
Li Yuanqing, the adopted son of the Generalissimo, got the support of the generals in the army, and quickly took control of the army he led.
When the army led by the young marshal Li Yi was killing rivers of blood in Tacheng and the Zhendong Army, he was not idle, and he carried out a bloody cleansing within the Northern Army.
Some generals who were vacillating and loyal to the young marshal Li Yi were secretly arrested and executed on the spot. In some key positions, Li Yuanqing wanted to replace them with his own people.
Li Yuanqing's large-scale purges in the army naturally made some veterans with a keen sense of smell realize that something was wrong.
These veterans neither belong to the lineage of the young marshal Li Yi nor the lineage of the general Li Yuanqing.
These veterans are all veterans of the Northern Army, and they used to be led by Generalissimo Li Kou.
Seeing that Li Yuanqing did not go to rescue Marshal Li Yi, but instead carried out cleaning in the army, this naturally aroused their dissatisfaction.
They are also worried that Li Yuanqing's fire will burn on them, after all, they are also the ones who hold the military power.
So several veterans also felt that the front line was not a place to stay for a long time, so under the protection of their personal guards, they escaped from the camp overnight and headed for the garrison of Hedong Province.
Now Li Yuanqing is busy cleaning out the dissidents in the army. The current task is to thoroughly control the army in his hands. Naturally, he doesn't care about the few veterans who fled overnight, as long as they don't take the army away. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
