Chapter 382 The mighty General Shen
Under the dazzling sunshine, the foreign soldiers of the Five Consciousnesses who were forced to conquer Gao Xianzhi followed fearfully behind the Anxi Army. On both sides were cruising Tang cavalry, which made them unable to think of escaping.
The fall of Jiayan was riding on the high-headed horse, not as depressed as the leaders of the tribes on the side. Although the Five Consciousnesses were called the country, they were actually the chiefs of each tribe. This time, the Tang Dynasty's royal army conquered Xiao Bolu, and the Gao Dadu Guard recruited the soldiers and horses of the Five Consciousnesses of the country. The chiefs of each tribe recommended him as the king of the country, but in fact they had no good intentions.
When the Tang Dynasty conscripted foreign troops, it must be used as cannon fodder for siege and siege. Don’t look at the title of the king, but at that time, under the command of this great gubernator, you will have to lead the troops to fight to the death.
It is clear that the decline of Lianyun Castle is lost. Small countries like them are stuck between the Tang Dynasty and the Tubo thieves, and they are in a dilemma. Even though they are looking at the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty is too far away and the Tubo is too close, and the country is divided into various parts. Although they are called a country, they are just a general title at that time.
But wealth and honor are in danger, and Jiayan understands that attacking Lianyun Castle is dangerous and may even make his life. However, if he succeeds, he may be able to obtain the title of the Tang Dynasty and become the true king of the Five Consciousnesses. Maybe he still has the chance to go to Chang'an to pay homage to Tian Khan.
Just when Dou Shi Jiayan couldn't stop his imagination, there were suddenly cheers in front of him, "General Shen is mighty!" "The Tang Dynasty has won thousands of victories!" The shouts kept ringing like a continuous thunder tide, which also made Dou Shi Jiayan and the soldiers of various troops from the Five Consciousnesses hidden in the country around him look at each other, not knowing what happened.
Until he saw the messenger with a flag on his back and came, he shouted, "General Shen, the ambassador of the Shattered Ye Army, has pulled out Lianyun Fortress and wiped out 1,600 bandits. The majority of the Protectors have the life to advance quickly? Go straight to Lianyun Fort."
But in a moment, Jiayan saw that the Iron Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty who were circling on their wings drew their swords and cheered. The dazzling and bright sword lights connected together. They made him scream in surprise. The chiefs of the central government behind him were all shocked. The eyes of looking at him were jealous and envious.
Daoshi Jiayan knew that he, the elected king, was used as a scapegoat? But now the main force of the Tang Dynasty King's Army had not arrived, and just a partial army took down the Lianyun Fortress guarded by the elite Tubo soldiers? Who would have doubted the unparalleled combat power of the Tang Dynasty King's Army? He, the scapegoat, immediately had the opportunity to be crowned as king of the Tang Dynasty. If it were others, wouldn't they be willing to do so.
But Jiayan didn't care about the jealousy of those short-sighted people. After Lianyun Castle was down, Xiao Bolu would have no danger to defend? The next thing was to connect with the Tubo soldiers and horses? He was not afraid of it.
Thinking of General Shen who pulled Lianyun Castle, Shuo Shijiayan felt that this person was really the noble person he was destined to, so he also pulled out his sword and joined the cheering Tang Dynasty King's Army, "General Shen is mighty!"
Soon? The foreign soldiers who had hidden the Five Consciousnesses all cheered, and there was no need to attack the near Lianyun Castle? Maybe they could not only go back alive, but also get rewards from the Tang Dynasty. Then these foreign soldiers who were originally bitter in their faces suddenly became high morale and became excited.
In front of the army? Gao Xianzhi's face was full of smiles? Shen Lang is really a natural famous general? Fortunately, he had conscripted three thousand foreign soldiers in the Five Consciousness Country. He wanted to be cannon fodder for Shen Lang to attack Lianyun Fort, but he didn't expect that he would actually pull out this dangerous city ahead of time.
If there were no Shattered Ye Army beside Gao Xianzhi, Xi Yuanqing, who should have acted as the pioneer of the army, would inevitably feel a little jealous at this time. For a moment, he even felt that Lianyun Castle might have a false reputation and not as dangerous as the legendary one.
Hearing that the guru was praising Chen Lang desperately as if he didn't want money, the other generals agreed. The army has never been vain, and Chen Lang was able to capture Lianyun Castle.
Since Lianyun Castle has been removed, the army no longer needs to be polite to horsepower. After advancing with all its strength, it only took more than an hour to reach the shore of the Pole River. Looking at the turbulent river water, looking at the dangerous castle not far from the other side of the river, which was surrounded by mountains on three sides and suddenly on the hillside, Xi Yuanqing was completely convinced.
"The Great Protector, fortunately, the general will not be humiliated. Lianyun Castle has already come down. Please ask the Great Protector to cross the river!"
After receiving the scout, Chen Guang had already arrived at Lianyun Castle and waited on the other side. When he saw him, Gao Xianzhi could sit upright. He immediately took off his horse and strode forward, laughing and said, "Chen Langguo is a general, and this battle was beautiful."
On the way, Gao Xianzhi had already listened to the story of the scout in Paoling Town, and knew the process of Shen Guang's attack on Lianyun Castle. He could make a quick decision to cross the river at night while the river was still shallow, and then decisively took advantage of the rain to pull the city. This courage and decision alone was far beyond the generals in the army.
"This is the destiny of heaven in my Tang Dynasty, and the last general was lucky enough to succeed."
Chen Guang, who made great contributions, was still humble, which also made the generals under Gao Xianzhi's command more and more convinced, and they couldn't even feel jealous.
"Come on, let's cross the river, Chen Lang, let's talk to someone about the details of this battle."
Gao Xianzhi held Chen Guang's hand and walked towards the floating bridge. Chen Guang had to accompany Gao Xianzhi to cross the river first, and at the same time let Bai Xiaode and others stay on the shore to meet the army.
"Protector, after I quickly went to Lianyun Castle, I have not alarmed the bandit army's village. Now there are still 8,000 bandit army members twenty miles south of the city that have not been broken!"
"After Lianyun Castle is under, these eight thousand bandits are just native chickens and tiles."
Walking through the bumpy floating bridge, Gao Xianzhi looked back at the turbulent river behind him, looked at the steep Lianyun Castle, answered confidently, and then laughed, "Besides, Chen Lang is so calm, I think he has a good plan to defeat the enemy, so why bother?"
"The last one has indeed made arrangements, so please advise the Protector."
"Let me tell me."
When he arrived at Lianyun Castle, Gao Xianzhi had already heard Chen Guang's plan and nodded constantly, "The thief army still doesn't know that the king's army has arrived. Your strategy to lure the enemy is actually the best one. Even if someone comes to fight this battle, he will definitely make such a plan."
"Since Chen Lang has made a successful conclusion in this battle, I will not overstep my affairs. I will watch Chen Lang defeat the thief on this Lianyun Castle tomorrow."
Gao Xianzhi generously gave up command. He wanted Chen Guang to take office. Since he had been to Chang'an City, his desire to become a general and a prime minister has become stronger. As long as he has the help of Chen Lang, he will be prime minister in the court sooner or later. Since then, Gao's family is no longer a remnant of Goryeo, but a famous family in the Tang Dynasty.
"Thank you, Protector."
Seeing Gao Xianzhi's tone was firm, Chen Guang did not refuse any more, but asked the Huotou Army to kill sheep and hold a banquet to entertain the generals of the central army.
...
"Xiao Wang pays homage to General Chen. If General Chen had not been the divine power and pulled out Lianyun Castle, Xiao Wang would have been in danger!"
At the banquet, Zuo Sijiayan stood up from the table with a glass of wine and bowed to Chen Guang, "This cup of Xiao Wang respects General Chen."
The other major chiefs of the Five Consciousnesses Kingdom also toasted Chen Guang with the king of Dou Shi Jiayan. Their eyes were still shocked. Who would have thought that General Chen, who captured Lianyun Castle, was born so beautiful and not like a warrior. However, when they saw that the mighty and mighty Tang generals respected Chen Gong very much, they would not have any contempt.
"You are welcome to be polite, Lord."
Seeing the intention of pleaseing him, Chen Guang gave a polite response to a cup. He had heard Gao Xianzhi say that this fallen Jiayan was proficient in Chinese and was determined to the Tang Dynasty. He intended to request the court to appoint this person as the King of Five Consciousnesses and Unify the troops in his country to resist Tubo, and naturally he was willing to make friends with this person.
