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.

Sa Luzi was also one of the six horses that followed Tang Taizong Li Shimin.

Speaking of it, Li Shimin can be regarded as a legend. He was born in his twenties, and he was born with a good wife, godly horse, and civil servants. He is a winner in life.

"You will follow me from now on, and I will be responsible for you."

Chu Tian stroked Saluzi's fur. Unlike the black Juoying, Saluzi is a **** horse with purple hair.

"Ding! The SS-level achievement mission "Six Horses of Zhaoling" is open. You can complete the achievement mission by collecting six horses including Fisting Fist, Shivachi, White-tied Wu, Telep, Qing Hao, and Saluzi."

Chu Tian rarely heard system reminders.

This time the achievement task turned out to be to gather six horses of Tang Taizong.

Chu Tian didn't know where Mingguan got Saluzi, but he knew that it was not easy to gather six horses.

Each horse has a special effect and is extremely valuable.

It's just that Sa Luzi was too unlucky. The armor-piercing arrow made by Mo Xie by Hua Mulan of 95 force almost shot him.

Tang Taizong's mount would be a shame if it were to die like this.

As for the reward for the achievement task "Six Horses of Zhaoling", Chu Tian didn't know what it would be.

The red cannon was transported back to Xiacheng.

Needless to say, the power of level ten firearms.

However, the shortcomings of the red cannon is quite obvious, that is, the mobility of the red cannon is really bad.

Next, Chutian planned to expedition to Liucheng to see if there is a chance to completely win Liaodong City.

If Liaodong City can be won, then the major troubles outside the pass will be completely resolved, and there is no need to worry about Liaodong's troubles.

Counting the disasters in Korea, Liaodong is not peaceful.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, after Cao Cao calmed down Yuan Shao's forces, he followed Guo Jia's advice and expedition to the west of Liaoning. He basically calmed down the remnants of Wuhuan and Yuan's family. Only then did Cao Cao have the energy to calm Xilong and conquer Jingzhou in the south.

Chu Tian was in this position, and his strategy was similar to that of Cao Cao, and he wanted to calm West Liaoning.

Guo Jia originally wanted to suggest Chu Tian to take advantage of the victory, but he had already sensed that Chu Tian meant to occupy the entire western Liaoning, so he did not specifically convince Chu Tian.

Chu Tian also made people bring the captive generals of Mingguan forces.

At the end of the war, a small number of seriously injured Wus did not have time to escape and were captured by Xia Jun.

A military commander covered in blood was brought to Chu Tian.

This military commander was not the Murong Ba and Murong Ke brothers whom Chu Tian was worried about, but the fierce general Zhu Neng under the command of Ming Cheng ancestor Zhu Di.

Zhu Neng seemed unwilling to be a prisoner.

"The King of Ming has been defeated, only a corner of Liaodong is left, and nothing can be done. With Zhu Neng, your skills are enough to go down in history. Why not work for me, conquer the Quartet and establish an immortal cause?"

Chu Tian tried to surrender Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng is a powerful cavalry general. If Zhu Neng can be subdued, Chu Tian's cavalry lineup will be 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 surrender these grouped generals.

Chutian's subordinates also have a tendency to group together, such as the women's army and the Khitan army, but the Liaodong army is obviously more united and stronger.

The Liaodong Army has the sense of honor established by Mingguan, and even if the army on the opposite side is the Central Plains, they dare to go head-on. In other words, Zhu Neng and others have their own pride and will not easily surrender.

Unless Mingguan surrendered, which represented the interests of the Liaodong Army.

Also caught with Zhu Neng was the retreating Zu Dashou.

Zu Dashou was captured by the Knights of the Round Table during his retreat.

Zu Dashou, the military commander of the late Ming Dynasty, may not be so loyal to Mingguan.

If Chu Tian spends his thoughts, he can conquer the ancestor's birthday.

It's just that Zu Dashou doesn't need Chu Tian to spend so much effort to recruit specifically.

"Would you like to work for me?"

Chu Tian just asked Zu Dashou.

"If I work for King Ming, how can I surrender?"

Zu Dashou did not directly surrender.

"Cure for them and then put them under house arrest."

Chutian imprisoned Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou.

Chu Tian valued Zhu Neng's abilities even more. Although Zu Dashou had problems with his loyalty, he was also a famous general.

The most critical generals such as Xu Da and Chang Yuchun have always followed their cavalry. It is not easy to capture them alive.

Guzhucheng, Sun Chuanting and the other defenders finally determined that the Ming army was defeated, because Chu Tian made people take the captive Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou to the city to show off the strength of the Xia army.

Since both Zhu Neng and Zu Dashou were captured alive, and Xia Jun had no intention of clearing the siege, then it is almost certain that the Ming Army was defeated.

"General, our army has been defeated, and there is no need to defend this city. What should we do?"

The generals and small schools in Guzhucheng all looked at Sun Chuanting.

By now, there are less than half of the 100,000 defenders.

The houses in the outer city were demolished and razed to the ground.

Standing on the city wall, Sun Chuanting looked to the east, crying.

The military commanders of Liaodong and Liaoxi 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 Guzhu City. It is not a problem to guard for another month or two. If you are determined to die, you can guard for another three months. It's just..."

Sun Chuanting intentionally continued to defend the city, but the defenders in the city had no fighting spirit and wanted to surrender.

As the main 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 still opened, and Geng Bian's Youzhou rode into the city.

The morale of the 40,000 soldiers in the city was low and there was no fighting spirit.

Geng Chang's Youzhou Tuqie gained a lot of experience because of participating in the Liaoning-Western War. At this time, they were proud and they were the winner.

"Sun Chuanting, play for King Xia."

Riding a war horse, Geng Chang came to Sun Chuanting all the way, wanting to recruit Sun Chuanting and let Sun Chuanting serve for Chu Tian.

Sun Chuanting just said calmly: "It's impossible."

"With your talents, it would be a shame if you die like this. Come here, protect Sun Chuanting."

Geng Yan also put Sun Chuanting under house arrest, and waited until the Liaodong forces were completely suppressed, and then solicited.

The western fortress of Liaoxi County, Guzhucheng, was occupied by the Xia army, and only Liucheng, which was close to Liaodong County in the east, remained.

"Unexpectedly, it still fell short."

Sun Chuanting's face was pale.

The 40,000 Ming army was taken prisoner. In order to prevent them from rebelling, the generals of the Ming army were imprisoned. After the ordinary soldiers were broken up, they were disbanded to the various armies.

Sun Chuanting's special unit 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 by Li Zicheng and others.

Sun Chuanting once made Li Zicheng suffer and was almost killed by Sun Chuanting, but the Ming Dynasty had already declined at the time. Li Zicheng and others could fail countless times, and Sun Chuanting could only fail once.

When Sun Chuanting failed once, the soldier was defeated and died.

Sun Chuanting is still an upper-ranking general in the second-rate, so Mingguan will let him lead a hundred thousand army to guard the Guzhu city.

Sun Chuanting did not live up to Mingguan's expectations. It was just that the main force of the Ming army failed. There is no point in continuing to defend Guzhu City. At most, it can only contain tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Xia army.

For Xia Jun who occupied Central Plains, Hebei, Youzhou and other places, it was easy to send tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to besiege Lone Bamboo City.

Three months? Chu Tian can even besiege for three years.

Sun Chuanting's Qin army was guarded alone. These people only obeyed Sun Chuanting's orders and were not stable.

The news that Guzhu City was captured by Xia Jun spread throughout the Han Empire!

The loss of a city in Guzhu City still 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. The Han Empire has already won 90% of the victory in the Northern War.

In Lujiang County, Sun Jian was dispatching troops and was about to attack Hefei for the third time. He heard that Xia Jun had already captured Guzhu City, and that the main force of the Ming Army had been defeated, and his expression was complicated.

Sun Ce has grown to the peak at this time, tall and resolute, and Zhou Yu can be regarded as the second commander of Jiangdong. He learned that the main force of the Ming army has failed, so he came to persuade Sun Jian to stop attacking Hefei: "Father, Xia Jun defeated the King of Ming in western Liaoning. Defeated, a few generals were captured by King Xia, and Liaodong was in great chaos. At this time, we led Jiangdong Army to attack Hefei, and the main force of Xia Army could arrive at Shouchun at any time. At that time, not to mention that Hefei could not be captured. In case the King Xia arrives in Shouchun, we will gather forces. , To counterattack Lujiang County, wouldn’t even Lujiang County fall?"

Sun Ce's worry is not unreasonable.

Because of the existence of the teleportation array, the speed of Xia Jun's long-distance gathering of troops can be very fast.

The cost of the teleportation array was originally high, but in the unification war of the Han Empire, the princes smashed real money in regardless of the cost, so the cost of the teleportation array was not considered a matter in the eyes of the red-eyed princes.

Before the financial bankruptcy, as long as the opponent is destroyed, then it is worth it.

Sun Jian stared at Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, although your military strength and the ability to command soldiers and horses have grown, you have to consider factors outside the battlefield. This is a qualified Patriarch. You want to inherit my position and become a grandson. The owner of the family still needs to study hard."

"The child is puzzled."

"Although King Xia won and King Ming lost most of Liaoning, King Ming still has the most important part of Liaodong. The area of ​​Liaodong was originally just a county, and King Ming conquered the east and the west. Now the land of Liaodong is comparable to Jingzhou's size. In order to calm Liaodong, it will be trapped in Liaodong in a short time, and a lot of time and money will be spent to calm down the Liaodong tribes. King Xia can't get out, so there is no need to worry that King Xia's main force will suddenly come to Shouchun City."

"So that's it..."

"Not only that, my brother urged me to send troops, and I must give my brother an explanation."

"Then our secret agreement with Lu Su..."

"When attacking Hefei, King Xia would only increase the price for us in order to save trouble."

"hiss……"

Sun Ce discovered for the first time that his father, Sun Jian, was not just a general who was good at leading soldiers in battle.

Sun Jian can build his own team. Under the leadership of King Wu Tongque, Sun Jian is relatively independent, equivalent to half a state animal husbandry, and has some means.

"Daddy."

A little girl who was about four or five years old, who was adorned with jade, grabbed Sun Jian's trousers.

Because Sun Jian was discussing an extremely secret event with Sun Ce, he was frightened by the sudden appearance of Sun Shangxiang: "Xiangxiang, why did you sneak in?"

A maid came in to report: "Master, the young lady beat and cried several children around..."

"..."

Sun Jian and Sun Ce looked at each other, helpless to Sun Shangxiang, who was usually active.

Sun Shangxiang didn't show any expression of doing something wrong, but took it for granted. The children in the surrounding families are also descendants of Sun Jian's tribe, and they dare not discuss with the family head's daughter.
