Chapter 273
On Jimeng Mountain, Jiaozi was still anxiously waiting for good news from Eunuch Xi.
Unfortunately, the good news didn't come, but the bad news came.
"What? How could it be so fast?"
Liang Hong was defeated. Although Jiaozi expected it, he didn't expect it to be so fast, and he didn't expect it to be such a process. The Zhenbei Army took down the million-strong army almost effortlessly.
It turned out that just one day ago, Liang Hong was determined to break through, arranged part of the army as cannon fodder, and began to prepare for the breakout.
But Han Xin was already prepared, and with the cooperation of Shadow, those abandoned generals made their own choices.
In order to force them, Shadow's people took their families away first. This time, these generals had no worries, but they were also shackled. In addition to the threat to their lives and disappointment in Liang Hong, these people began to act.
Coincidentally, the seven generals sent by Liang Hong to contain the Zhenbei Army sent people to contact the Zhenbei Army at the same time. They led 700,000 troops and not only did not attack the Zhenbei Army, but instead surrounded Liang Hong's 500,000 elite troops from the inside.
There were more than one million Zhenbei troops besieged outside, and 700,000 rebellious Liang troops surrounded inside, and even took the initiative to attack. The moment Liang Hong learned the news, he vomited blood and fainted on the spot.
He didn't know that during the short period of coma, another 200,000 of the last 500,000 elite troops under his command secretly left and joined the Liang army besieged outside.
When Liang Hong woke up, it was too late and Liang Hong completely collapsed.
Regardless of everyone's opposition, Liang Hong concentrated the 300,000 troops he could control, and under the protection of a group of masters, he desperately broke through the heartland of Liang State.
This move accelerated the speed of Liang Hong's demise. Liang Hong wanted to run in this direction only. Han Xin naturally knew that he had made many arrangements along the way.
Unfortunately, Han Xin's plan was not used, and the newly surrendered Liang army taught Liang Hong a hard lesson.
People who give up their compatriots' lives to save themselves at a critical moment are the most hated.
The generals headed by General Zhang were merciless, which was also to show off in front of the new master.
At the same time, it was also the hatred accumulated over time. Liang Hong's direct lineage always looked down on these generals. In addition, there were also some people sent by the court in the army controlled by Liang Hong, and these people were even more arrogant.
Now that there is a chance to beat the dog when it is down, General Zhang and others are naturally very hard-working.
After a night of bloody battle, the Zhenbei Army almost did not participate, and the internal fighting of the Liang Army ended.
Of the 700,000 Liang troops who surrendered, less than 400,000 were left in the end. Together with the Liang troops who surrendered later, it barely reached 500,000, and the rest were all killed in battle.
After a bloody battle, nearly 700,000 Liang soldiers died. These were the main forces, far from the city guards. After this battle, the Southern Court of Liang was completely crippled.
Liang Hong, the king of the Southern Court, also fell into the hands of the Zhenbei Army. As for the other generals who did not surrender, they were not so lucky and all died in battle.
Han Xin did not kill him, but planned to use him after he was done.
Jiao Zi did not care about these. Since Liang Hong was defeated, life or death was no longer important.
Jiao Zi was concerned about his own situation. After dealing with Liang Hong, the Zhenbei Army would not stop and would soon attack the border.
If an agreement could not be reached with the barbarians, Jiao Zi would soon follow in Liang Hong's footsteps.
"Has Eunuch Xi not come back yet?"
The old eunuch Xi is Jiao Zi's only hope at the moment.
"Reporting to the Marshal, there is no news about Eunuch Xi yet."
No news means that things have not yet reached the last moment.
"Report to the Marshal, the Barbarian cavalry has made a move. The Barbarian cavalry that besieged our army is retreating to the rear."
"Report to the Marshal, Eunuch Xi sent someone to deliver a letter."
Soon, the news arrived one after another.
The Barbarians have withdrawn, indicating that things have turned around. Jiaozi can't wait to check Eunuch Xi's letter.
"Marshal Jiaozi, the Barbarians are willing to cooperate. We suggest that the army stay still and wait for the enemy to tire out and attack the Zhenbei Army. For specific details, please consult with the Barbarian Commander."
"To show your sincerity, please ask Marshal Jiaozi to come in person. We are waiting for you."
The content of Eunuch Xi's letter was very simple. It seemed that he was disdainful of Jiaozi and just gave a few simple instructions.
Jiaozi had no doubts. This was in line with the characteristics of these eunuchs.
"Marshal, you can't go. If the barbarians change their minds, you will be in danger. What should the Jimengshan army do?"
Jiao Zi was emotionally unstable and had no time to think about it, but some of the generals present were not happy.
They looked down on eunuchs. Such a big event, involving the lives of 2 million people, how could they let a eunuch do it recklessly.
If something went wrong, the consequences would be too serious.
At this time, Jiao Zi also calmed down.Come, at this critical moment of life and death, there is really no room for error.
"Send someone to investigate the direction of the barbarian army's movement immediately."
Jiao Zi hopes to make further judgments through the actions of the barbarian army.
"Marshal, Eunuch Xi was sent by His Majesty, and he has the barbarian token in his hand. He must be confident enough. If you don't go, it may be suspected of questioning His Majesty."
This is a general who came with the court.
This general is not concerned about Jiao Zi, but is afraid of missing the opportunity and causing the barbarians to be disgusted. If something unexpected happens, the generals who came with the court will have a hard time reporting back.
"Calm down, don't rush this matter. The Zhenbei Army is still far away from us, and we still have time to distinguish."
Jiao Zi made a decision.
Barbarian camp.
"It seems that you, the favorite of the emperor, are not so useful outside."
Jiao Zi did not move for a long time, Wu Qi had guessed Jiao Zi's concerns, and teased Eunuch Xi.
"Marshal, Jiaozi is a cautious person. I'm afraid he won't take the risk himself. Otherwise, I'll go there myself."
At this time, Eunuch Xi was like being in the palace. He lowered his head, bent his waist, and looked submissive, showing his servant's appearance.
"No need, Azada, order people to build a big tent at the foot of the mountain and invite Jiaozi to come to the appointment."
"At the same time, order the army to continue to retreat ten miles, so as not to scare our guests."
Wu Qi definitely didn't trust Eunuch Xi. This person was fickle and must be controlled.
Since Jiaozi didn't dare to come, let's change a place to make Jiaozi feel safe, so that he would dare to come.
After arranging these, Wu Qi sent everyone away, picked up the old phone and called Song Que in person.
Song Que and others had completed the task. Not only did they take away the families of some generals in the Southern Courtyard of Liang State, but they also assassinated many important figures in the Southern Courtyard.
Now the Southern Courtyard is in chaos, and Song Que and others have made great contributions.
After getting Song Que's accurate itinerary, Wu Qi felt relieved and continued with his plan. He believed that it would not be long before his name, Wu Qi, would be widely spread among the people of Xia.
