Chapter 89 The Shame of the Red River
In the entire Honghe Province, no one dared to doubt Yang Yanzhao's use of troops is like a god, nor would anyone doubt that Yang Yanzhao was the hero of the Lingcheng City.
But... Yang Yanzhao had just left, Lingcheng was surrounded by only 20,000 people. The people from Honghe Province realized once again that the heroes had left, and they were nothing. Without the city guards, they did not even have the courage to go out to resist. Every Lingcheng person felt like a baby abandoned by his parents. Except for Yang Yanzhao, the parent-master, who came back, otherwise... Liu Jiaxin personally ordered, "Even if the entire Qin State is forgotten, I will make our Lingcheng the last fortress of Qin State."
"Then let them continue to guard them, and now there is no time to pay attention to them."
When Master Zhou learned about the situation in Lingcheng, all the army of Dazhou had gathered in Longzhong Province.
"Grandpa is such a trick!"
Zhou Ziqi said sincerely: "The magistrate city where Yang Yanzhao is here is as solid as a soup, and it is indeed difficult for us to take it down, but as soon as Yang Yanzhao left, Liu Qing dared to bring people out, which was really whimsical."
"Whether it is useful or not, I think it will be a big disaster if Lingcheng is not removed!"
Zhou Changlong had already reached the front line, and he said with a sensation: "Grandpa, I'd better ask you to give me an elite soldier, let me kill back and take down the Mingcheng in one breath."
"I hope this is the last time I hear such words. Next time, I will send you back to Dazhou."
After Master Zhou finished speaking lightly, he looked at the map on the table.
In the early morning, Master Zhou was completely defeated. Isn’t this a shame to him?
But if you do something big, you don’t care about the details. The ambush killed Liu Qing’s 150,000 defenders, which gave him a little safety. “Does anyone know what Yang Yanzhao is doing?”
"I heard that he was heading to Huaicheng."
Zhou Dehua said truthfully.
Master Zhou nodded, "Just go to Huaicheng, then we can enter Longzhong Province with confidence and boldness."
"Grandpa, I'm sorry, are the tiny Yang Yanzhao that scary?
I wish he could come to Longzhong!"
Zhou Changlong said angrily.
Master Zhou was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Changlong and said directly: "There is Chu Xiangqing's army in Huaicheng. If Yang Yanzhao wants to relieve the danger of Huaicheng, he should not be able to pull himself away for a while. This is a great time to attack Longzhong. If you pass the order, the entire army will continue to advance and approach Fancheng."
"yes!"
All the generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
The current Zhou army is no longer the same as before.
When they first entered Qin, the Great Zhou army had only more than one million, but now, the Great Zhou relied on the strategy of fighting to support the war and captured a large number of Qin people. After more than three million Qin men or defeated troops joined the Great Zhou army, the scale of the Great Zhou army has reached an unprecedented scale of more than three million, with a huge momentum.
"Why didn't the irrelevant city garrisons and people evacuate in advance!"
After Qin Lan heard that the size of the Great Zhou army had expanded to three million, she could no longer sit still. "Lingcheng has delayed us for so long. Don't tell me that you don't have time to evacuate!"
In the hall, no one of the generals of Qin dared to speak, and they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
"I do not understand!"
Qin Lan stood up with a cold face, "What I don't understand is that Yang Yanzhao used to be a playboy in Changping. He was greedy for money and lust, and he was not good at literature and martial arts. He was a waste, but he was just such a waste. He not only stopped the attack of the millions of main forces in Dazhou, but also killed tens of thousands of troops in Dazhou and successfully defended the Lingcheng."
"Although Liu Qing was summoned later and was conquered after receiving the call, that happened after Yang Yanzhao left!"
"I want to ask everyone, you are all talents carefully selected by my Daqin Jin. You have been in charge of the army for many years, and they all look like they use soldiers as if they are a god. But when it comes to actual combat, why, why are you not even as bad as Yang Yanzhao, a waste in my eyes!"
She was really angry.
Once upon a time, Yang Yanzhao was just a toy in her hands, and she was the bargaining chip for her to firmly hold the position of Chief of Qin and control the Chiyan Iron Cavalry. However, it was this bargaining chip that she looked down upon. In this battle, she showed amazing talent again and again, surprise her again and again.
But what after the surprise?
The generals of Qin who made her proud once scared her again and again.
The entry of millions of people from the Great Zhou into Qin was already terrifying. Now, the Great Zhou actually used the people from the Qin State to open the way, and the army expanded to more than three million.
Even if Qin Lan doesn't know how to fight, she knows that this is not a good thing for Qin.
"Who can tell me!"
She looked at the generals below and said with a heartache: "Why, why, why did my Qin men willingly become chess pieces of the Great Zhou Dynasty and become their arrow plates? Why did Yang Yanzhao move everyone in the entire province before the war? But you don't know why the two major provinces in the west and east of Han have vast land and abundant resources, but they have been persistent for less than two months, and Lingcheng is still sticking to it."
"Can you tell me why others can do what they can, and you disappoint me again and again?"
"Now, the army of the Great Zhou has begun to enter the Longzhong Province. Are you also planning to let me be captured by the generals of the Great Zhou here, let me serve them as a shield and become their slaves! Then I will pay the entire Qin State both hands to the Great Zhou and shout long live the Great Zhou?"
Qin Lan was really angry. She couldn't understand why Yang Yanzhao could solve a good problem, but why so many generals could not solve it. He thought that after Yang Yanzhao brought such a big surprise, the Qin man stood up and could completely defeat the Great Zhou, but the battle reports came again and again, and she felt cold.
"Master Shangguan."
Seeing that everyone was not talking, Qin Lan could only name her.
"The last one will be there."
"I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."
"The Chief General, I am incompetent! But... the victims of the Honghe Province were the first to enter Longzhong Province, which has already made Longzhong Province overcrowded. The population of the two major provinces in the west and east of Han is far greater than that of the Honghe Province. The Zhongjiang could not extradite them all to Longzhong Province. Longzhong Province could not accommodate so many people, which gave the Great Zhou a chance to fight with war."
“Is this the reason you gave me?
Then tell me, Yang Yanzhao defended Lingcheng with 600,000 miscellaneous soldiers and defeated the siege of the million-strong army of the Great Zhou. Now, our Fancheng has 1.5 million city guards, 2.5 million reserve troops, 50,000 Chiyan Iron Cavalry, 100,000 guards, and 2 million guards composed of tyrants from all over the country. Can the 6 million army be defeated?”
"I will be sure to do my best to share my worries for the general's long-term!"
"How are you going to fight?"
"The Longzhong Plain is mostly in the area and there are very few dangerous places, but if we want to be the troops, Fancheng cannot accommodate so many people in the city defense battle. If that is the case, why don't we use the Chiyan Iron Cavalry as the vanguard army and defeat the Great Zhou army head-on?
I suggest that General Mo personally leads the reserve army of 2.5 million, the guards of 1 million, and the Chiyan Iron Cavalry of 50,000, and the Longzhong Plain to fight to the death!"
"Then I'll wait for you to return!"
"The last general's order!"
