Chapter 253 Directly pointing to the capital of the Bohai Sea

Li Fei did not participate in the pursuit of the defeated enemy. As soon as he returned to Gewuzhou City, Li Fei sent ten people from more than a hundred people who protected him to quickly go to Chang'an City to report the victory.

At this moment, it has been two days since he sent people to Chang'an City to report the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom from Liaoyang City, and it will take one day to return to Liaoyang City from Gewuzhou City. That is to say, the two waves of people who sent to Chang'an City to report the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom are about three days away from the first wave of people who reported the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom. He once asked the first wave of people who went to Chang'an City to report the invasion of the Bohai Kingdom to delay the arrival of Chang'an City as much as possible on the road. Although it may not be delayed for two days, one day or one and a half is not a problem, and the remaining one or a half days should not have discussed countermeasures.

About an hour and a half later, Wu Sheng returned with the head of the Bohai Army commander Shang Quanyi, while Lu Xin continued to lead the pursuit of other remaining Bohai soldiers outside.

"Okay, great! With the head of the Bohai Army's commander, no one can blame me for the invasion of Bohai Kingdom!" Li Fei laughed loudly, referring to Yang Guozhong or An Lushan. Compared to the anxiety of the previous two days, Li Fei was now relaxed.

"What is the name of the head coach of the Bohai National Army? Have you asked clearly?" Li Fei asked Wu Sheng.

"On the way back to the Jiedushi, my subordinates had already asked the captured soldiers of the Bohai Kingdom on the way back. Their head coach was named Shangquan Yi." Wu Sheng replied.

"Well, so, send another team of people to send Shangquanyi's head to Chang'an City!" Li Fei was happy. This was the third wave of people sent by Li Fei to Chang'an City. There should be a fourth wave of people later to report the victory of the war.

The Bohai Kingdom army had 80,000 people. They went out to attack Gewuzhou City and suffered casualties and injured on the battlefield. There were still about 70,000 defeated people, and the pursuit was not something that could be accomplished so quickly.

It was not until the evening approaching that the army that went out to hunt down the hunt returned to Gewuzhou City with their captives.

These included Yuan Kui and hundreds of garrison soldiers from Gewuzhou City. Although they were not normal combat troops, under Yuan Kui's leadership, more than 300 Bohai soldiers were captured.

The knife in his hand and body were infected with blood, but Yuan Kui only felt relieved in his heart!

"Good person, he's a warrior!" Li Fei praised Yuan Kui for a few words, and became more and more interested in Yuan Kui, and began to have some ideas of reusing him.

The one who captured the most was undoubtedly the Andong Iron Cavalry riding war horses. They captured more than 36,000 soldiers from the Bohai Kingdom, followed by soldiers from the Modao Formation. As infantrymen, they were far less than the Iron Cavalry chased them as fast as they captured, and only more than 5,000 people were captured.

A total of 42,000 prisoners were included. If the number of people killed directly during the pursuit process, the number of Bohai soldiers was at least 50,000. In other words, less than 20,000 Bohai soldiers could still escape.

In the end, the number of soldiers in the Bohai Kingdom is nearly three times that of the Andong Army. If the number of the two sides is similar, the total number of 80,000 Bohai Kingdom's army can be wiped out.

However, even if there were almost 20,000 people who could still escape back to the Bohai State, the loss of more than 60,000 soldiers in one battle was enough to seriously damage the Bohai State's vitality.

"Send another wave of people to Chang'an City to report the victory, wait---" Li Fei thought for a while and said, "I'll write a memorial to send it to you!"

In addition to reporting on the achievements of this war, the number of soldiers captured by the Bohai Kingdom this time was too large, and Li Fei also prepared to let the court be responsible for resettling most of the prisoners.

After writing the memorial, Li Fei sighed helplessly.

Andong is vast and sparsely populated. This person is a "labor" and it is good to use it to build roads and bridges. Unfortunately, An Lushan may have to rebel a year later. This is a war that affected half of the Tang Dynasty. Andong is close to Pinglu Road, one of An Lushan's old nests. It is unlikely that he would be out of trouble. At that time, so many prisoners of the Bohai Kingdom were in Andong's territory would be like a time bomb. He could not spare the energy to prevent it at all times. It would be better to hand it over to the court for resettlement now.

After experiencing this battle, it may not be a bad thing for Anton.

The Andong army had a real war before the Anshi Rebellion, which allowed all soldiers to see blood. The Bohai Kingdom was behind Anshi Rebellion. Although the Anshi Rebellion did not attack Anton in the early stages of the Tang Dynasty, it is different from history. Isn’t there this invasion of the 80,000 troops of the Bohai Kingdom?

"I'll order the entire army to rest for a night. Tomorrow morning, all the cavalry will follow me to the capital of Bohai Kingdom!" Li Fei was about to take the cavalry only, and stayed in Gewuzhou City to guard the prisoners.

Li Fei not only wanted to seriously damage the Bohai Kingdom's vitality, but also prepared to completely surrender the Bohai Kingdom. Even if Anton is empty for a long time in the future, he would not dare to cause trouble.

The 20,000 Andong Iron Cavalry, because they took advantage of the chaos, defeated the Bohai Army in an instant. Therefore, the losses were limited, with only more than 1,200 injured and only about 300 people killed directly in battle. The accompanying military medical team was treating all the minor and serious wounded people.

"Kill into the Bohai Kingdom!" The next morning, Li Fei led more than 18,000 Andong cavalry into the Bohai Kingdom and pointed directly at the capital of the Bohai Kingdom.

———————

Gewuzhou City is about one day away from the capital of Bohai Kingdom.

When the Bohai King learned of the news of the disastrous defeat on the front line, it was already midnight, and he was so scared that he rolled down from the bed.

More than an hour later, news of Shangquan Yi's death in battle also came.

Then, defeated soldiers fled back to Shangjing City, and the entire Bohai Kingdom was shocked. Not only did the king Daqinmao fear, but ordinary people were also extremely afraid. Some people even cursed their king, but suddenly they had to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. They suffered a crushing defeat in just a few days after sending troops. They also lost more than 60,000 soldiers, which was nearly half of the entire Bohai Kingdom. Almost one of the two households in the Bohai Kingdom was young and strong, and one of the two households was lost in this war.

It was not over yet, and the next day, another news came. The Tang Dynasty cavalry rushed into the Bohai Kingdom and rushed towards the capital.

The King of Bohai has never been so afraid. Why did the 80,000 army be defeated in just a few days, and even lost more than 60,000 people. Even the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty was about to come to the capital.

After the founding of the Bohai Kingdom, to this day, Shangjing City has not been attacked by enemy troops, and I actually want the first experience.

"That waste Shangquanyi, if he hadn't died outside, I would have strangled him to death with my own hands!" The King of Bohai said gritted his teeth.

"What to do, what to do---" Anger could never hide the fear in the heart of the King of Bohai. After only a few breaths of anger, the King of Bohai regained his fear on his face. For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with it.

"King, you should collect the remaining soldiers who have fled back from defeat, and the guards who already had already had in Shangjing City, may be able to defend Shangjing City!" The old minister was released by the King of Bohai. He proposed his own strategy to the King of Bohai, hoping to help defend Shangjing City.
