Chapter 882 Prince's ultimate move(1/2)

At dawn, the camp was pulled out.

The two armies set off again twenty miles apart.

After the three thousand cavalry left in the middle of the night, Li Chao transferred a group of pack horses and disguised them as three thousand cavalry. In the battle of Ruhe, Li Chao lost thousands of people and many injured soldiers. In addition, he left three thousand yesterday, but now there are 5,000 fewer people, and there are still 30,000 left.

Thirty thousand people, white robes accounted for nearly two-thirds, and they were actually very weak at this time.

If the Goguryeo really shot the horse back, without the protection of the cavalry, it would be difficult for Li Chao to form the Liao Dynasty formation, and it would be difficult to stop the Goguryeo.

"The Prime Minister, the Goguryeo people did not look back."

"Very good, it seems that the Goguryeo people have no intention of fighting." Li Chao nodded.

The two armies marched forward and behind.

After walking for a long time, the Tang army kept hanging behind the Goguryeo Army.

Yuan Gaisuwen was very dissatisfied. They were cavalrymen, and behind them were the Tang army dominated by infantry. As a result, the Tang army was still hanging behind about twenty miles away.

After a round of the army, Yuan Gaisuwen discovered the problem.

He ordered the generals to abandon prisoners, livestock, wealth and other spoils, but in fact, no one obeyed the orders.

Some soldiers even put the Han lady they stolen on their mounts, but walked under the horse. Some Goguryeo soldiers were carrying large and small bags of spoils.

What made Yuan Gaisuwen the most angry was that these people even drove forward in the army with pigs and sheep.

This is not a marching and war, it is simply a tribal migration.

No wonder he walked for a long time and only walked a little bit, and even the Tang army infantry behind him could not get away. He estimated that if the Tang army had not deliberately maintained their speed, they would have been caught up long ago.

"Take all those things!"

Yeon Gassuvin ordered again.

"Sir, these are something that the men finally took away. What a pity they threw away."

"Whoever violates military orders will be killed!"

No matter how willing or not, Yoon Gassuwen issued a military order, and the Goguryeo soldiers finally reluctantly put the cattle and sheep and threw away many large items of property.

However, there were still a lot of gold, silver and jewelry hidden on their bodies, and some people even put the stolen silk clothes on their bodies.

"It's a pity that these Han people were let go like this. Since they can't take them away, they will be killed!"

Groups of Han prisoners were pushed out of the team and lined up to the side of the road.

There are tens of thousands of people.

The Tang army scout hanging behind the Goguryeo people quickly speeded back.

"The Prime Minister, the Goguryeo people drove all the captured Tang people to the roadside. It seems that they want to kill prisoners."

When Li Chao heard this, he showed murderous aura on his face.

"Prime Minister!" a group of generals shouted in unison.

"Beat the drum, blow the horns, speed up the march!"

Although it is very weak at the moment, Li Chao cannot just sit idly by and watch the Goguryeo kill the captured people. At least, he must make a move to prepare for attack and rescue.

Cheng Chumo, Niu saw the tiger each led the few light cavalry in the army, raised the banner and rushed forward.

"Report!"

"Report to the Lord, the Tang cavalry is rushing towards you!"

Several Goguryeo generals shouted loudly, "Sir, please let me lead my troops to fight and destroy them."

"Then, you have to destroy Li Chao, then take Youzhou, and then Hebei, right?" Yuan Gai Suwen said coldly.

The final goal of sending troops this time has failed. Since that is the case, what is the purpose of still entangling here? Why not retreat to western Liaoning as soon as possible.

Besides, since Li Chao sent out cavalry, he must know that they were preparing to kill prisoners. Li Chao would definitely be sure to come.

Yuan Gaisuwen is not afraid of the Tang army, so he will definitely be able to fight.

But he didn't want to fight this meaningless battle.

"Forget it, let the prisoners go, let us retreat, ignore the Tang army."

"withdraw?"

"withdraw!"

roadside.

Tens of thousands of Tang people stood by the roadside, with ropes tied to their hands. They were all extremely frightened, and some young women had already begun to cry in a low voice.

Some young men were cursing Goguryeo with their necks on their necks.

"Liaogou, kill me if you want to kill me. Eighteen years later, I am another hero. If you kill me today, the Tang Dynasty will avenge us tomorrow!"

"Goguryeo dog thief, I curse you for being sad!"

"When I will trample on Liaodong in the future, I will curse all your Liao dogs to be slaves for generations and never turn over."

A cavalry of Goguryeo rushed over and brought Yuan Gaisuwen's military order, abandoned the prisoners and continued to retreat eastward.

The Goguryeo people took back their swords, left their prisoners, cattle and sheep, and many large items of wealth, and then waited for the opportunity to leave with gold, silver and soft soft materials.

The people on the roadside waited for the Goguryeo people to walk a long way before finally coming to their senses.

"Is Liaogou leaving?"

"We are saved?"

"Help unzip the rope."

Everyone cried with joy, and began to untickle each other's ropes. After untiing the ropes, they suddenly felt like they were seeing the light of day again.

"Don't stay here, run back quickly. It would be bad if Liaogou comes back."

Not long after running, smoke and dust rose in front of him. Cheng Chumo and Niu Jianhu had arrived with their vanguard cavalry.

When the people saw the military flag of the Tang Dynasty, the battle robe of the Tang Dynasty, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, they immediately knelt down and bowed and cried.

"When I go back and report to the prime minister, the people have saved it, and the Goguryeo dog is fleeing in a panic."

Li Chao breathed a sigh of relief when he received the news.

This is the best result.

"Give the people food immediately. After everyone is full, send a team of people to escort them back to Pingzhou."

Xiangyang.

Ziwei Palace, Golden Palace.

All officials went to court.

In countless eyes, the eight-year-old Prince went to court surrounded by everyone.

All the officials knelt down and called on the mountain to the crown prince for thousands of years.

The Supreme Emperor has long stopped asking about political affairs, and now the emperor is in a state of discomfort. He has not shown up in court for the past two months, and the court is in chaos.

Although the young Prince Regent is worried, at least there is someone on the dragon throne.

"All my dear friends, let's be calm."

The prince stretched out his hands to support him. Although he was young, his performance was very steady, and his maturity and steadiness were beyond everyone's expectations. Even if everyone had known that this prince was extraordinary, today's regent is perfect.

Liu Shi and others were eager to try.

No matter how the emperor wanted to delay, since the prince was regent, he would ask the prince to order the new law to be abolished today.

The emperor did not issue an order for him to recuperate, but the same would be given to the prince's order.

But before Liu Wei was about to leave the list, the prince spoke first.

Chengqian looked around the ministers under the imperial stairs. It was not the first time he came to the Golden Palace. Since his father ascended the throne, he was also made the crown prince. Every morning court, he followed the court to listen to politics and learn government affairs. However, before, he sat under this imperial case, where there was a table.

But he was just listening and was not qualified to speak.

But today, he sat on the dragon throne behind the imperial case.

This position is higher and the feeling is even more different.

"My dear friends, Your Majesty is not well-off. He has been resting recently and cannot be disturbed. But the father is also concerned about the government affairs and is worried. He knows that the officials have had many opinions on the implementation of the new policy recently. There are supporters and opponents, and there are crowds and the courts are in chaos."

He paused, "Your Majesty is worried, but he is ill, so he ordered the orphan to temporarily take charge of the government. He is still young and is not familiar with many major national affairs, and he has to look up to the assistance and assistance of the ministers."

Liu Wei couldn't help but lifted his tablet and left the list.

"Your Highness, I have a memorial."

Prince Chengqian glanced at Liu Shi. This man was a vanguard who opposed the new law and was the first shot. During this period, he jumped up and down, and was also the most powerful one.

"Liu Zhongcheng!"

"I'm here!" Liu Shi said.

Cheng Qian's face was calm, but he was not polite to say anything.
