Chapter 97 The Southwest of the Long Yu Campaign (I)

Three years later

The fifth year of Yuanding

Due to the implementation of the Censorship Order and the Anti-Chief Order, one-tenth of the powerful people in the world were confiscated and half of the powerful people were facing the dilemma of bankruptcy.

After the emperor Liu Che passed the official salt and iron operation, the measures of calculating the treasury and liquor monopoly, the originally empty treasury was once again abundant. Therefore, after making money for several years, he could not hold back and decided to expand his territory again. This time his goal was no longer the Xiongnu who shrank and dared not fight, but the Nanyue.

Huo Qubing died young a few years ago. Li Guang committed suicide in shame. Li Gan was killed by Huo Qubing. Wei Qing was seriously injured in the battle of Mobei. The great man seemed to have no chance to be used for a while.

However, the emperor finally thought of the Liaodong prefect Wang Changzhi.

So Emperor Liu Che appointed Wang Changzhi, the 46-year-old prefect of Liaodong, as the commander of the general, and appointed Wang Changyu as General Huwei, and appointed Lu Debo as General Fubo from Guiyang County, and appointed Yang Pu as General Louchuan from Yuzhang County. Two South Vietnamese people who surrendered to the Han Dynasty, Zheng Yan and Tian Jia, respectively, were appointed General Gechuan and General Xiali from Lingling County. At the same time, there were also vassal states who surrendered to the Han Dynasty, who fought together.

At the same time, Wei Qing's son Wei Kang was appointed as the prefect of Liaodong.

Five armies, a total of 100,000.

The Han army was deployed as follows:

【Chief Coach Wang Changzhi

Wang Changyu, the general of Tiger Power, commanded 30,000 Bashu criminals, evil boys, rangers and the tribes of the southwestern Yi attacked the Nanyue Guoxiang County

General Ludebo of Fubo led 20,000 Han infantry to attack Shanguan of Guoyang, Nanyue

General Yang Pu, the general of the Lou Ship, led 30,000 elite Han troops to attack Hengpu Pass

Nanyue surrendered generals, commanding 10,000 surrendered soldiers in Nanyue attacked Bushan County

10,000 troops from the Fujian-Yue East Vietnam attacked Longchuan County in eastern Nanyue]

The five armies will eventually converge in Panyu, the capital of Nanyue.

Guiyang County

Head coach camp

"Report! Report to the General, the two countries of Dongyue, Fujian and Yue broke the contract and refused to send troops!"

"Report! Report to the general that the tribes of the Southwest Yi broke the contract and refused to send troops. General Huwei requested to attack the Southwest Yi!"

"Report! Report to the General, General Fu Bo has taken the lead in launching an attack without waiting for the main force to join!"

"Report! Report to the General, the General of the Tower and the General was stranded on the river, and the itinerary was delayed and he could not arrive at the front line on schedule!"

"Report! Report to the General..."

The front-line battle reports from various fronts were sent by scouts, which made Wang Changzhi, who had been recuperating in Liaodong for seven years, sigh: "Are there no good generals in the Han Dynasty who has lost Wei Qing and Huo Qubing?"

Over the past seven years, the Han Dynasty and the Huns have been in peace. The court has been reforming every day to squeeze the money of the powerful. Wang Changzhi has also found ways to develop his family in these seven years.

The court was working hard to cut the leeks of the powerful, the Wang family was working hard to cut the leeks of the people, and the people were working hard to survive. Everyone was working hard for themselves. It was a seven-year period of unity and passion.

Now, Emperor Liu Che has no general available, so he actually pulled him, a 46-year-old veteran, out to temporarily appoint the general.

After seven years of luxury in Liaodong County, Wang Changzhi grew a lot of fat, his body had less bronze muscles, and his skin was slightly finer and whiter than before. He was not as dark as when he was chasing the Huns with Wei Qing, and he was not as flexible as before. In contrast, Wang Changzhi had more means to deal with the various policies of the court.

In his position, he will do his own politics.

In the past, when I was in the military camp, I thought about how to fight and make achievements every day. Naturally, I would make progress every day in the march and formation. After that, I thought about how to deal with the court, how to unite other Liaodong tyrants, and how to harvest the people. I would naturally make progress in conspiracies and tricks, and at the same time regress in the march and war.

Seeing the unoptimistic information from all over the country, General Wang Changzhi could only sigh and reply to the commanders of various ways. He walked slowly and urged them to speed up the marches and made contributions to remind them not to act impulsively. At the same time, he reported the breach of contract between the two countries of Dongyue, Fujian and Yue, and then ordered Wang Changyu to act according to the opportunity. If he could beat him, he would fight him. If he could not beat him, he would withdraw him to Bashu and wait for the next instructions.

...

Yelang Country

The capital

This is a middle-level tribe among the tribes of the southwestern Yi. There are 3,000 soldiers in the whole country, all of whom are fierce and dare to fight.

As for the royal capital of Yelang Kingdom, it is a village.

At this time, several soldiers from Yelang Kingdom escorted a Han envoy. Although the Han envoy was captured, he still did not speak humility and scolded King Yelang: "Yelang King, you are originally a vassal of the Han Dynasty. The court ordered you to follow the Han army to conquer the Nanyue Kingdom together. How dare you break the contract and rebel?"

The King Yelang did not understand Chinese, but the envoy of Qilan, who understood Chinese, translated for him: "The envoy of the Han Dynasty said that you had breached the contract, and asked the king to kneel down immediately!"

"Bold!" King Yelang was furious and then scolded the Han envoy: "What is Han State? How big can it be? How dare you be so disrespectful to me!"

King Yelang did not understand the Han Dynasty. He was an ally of the Kingdom of Qilan, and the Kingdom of Qilan was a vassal of the Kingdom of Han. Not long ago, Qilan was persuaded by the South Vietnamese envoys to betray the Great Han Dynasty and form an alliance with the South Vietnam.

As an ally of King Qilan, King Yelang also fought against the Han Dynasty and captured the Han envoy who had come to persuade him to surrender to the Han Dynasty.

Qilan Kingdom Envoy was a talented person who was proficient in many languages, so he continued to translate to the Han envoy: "Which is more important than the Han or Yelang?"

"Huh?" The Han envoy was also confused. He could have expected how arrogant the Yelang King would be, but he did not expect that the Yelang King would be so ignorant.

...

North border of Yelang Kingdom

"You mean, Chief Yelang captured my envoy, and he might have killed me now?" Wang Changyu, General Huwei, said coldly.

"Yes." The scout who escaped from Yelang Kingdom by chance replied.

"Hmph!" Wang Changyu snorted coldly. He didn't care about the life or death of an envoy, but the behavior of Yelang King clearly did not give him face. He knew that it was the envoy sent by him, Wang Changyu, and dared to arrest and kill him in public. So he said angrily: "The General asked me to act according to the opportunity. Now that Yelang Kingdom is so arrogant, killing our Han envoy, this general must use thunder to let them know their mistakes!"

After saying that, he ordered the soldiers: "The whole army advances south and attacks Yelang!"

Then, the military orders were passed down one by one, and it took a long time before the army began to march.

The reason why military orders were transmitted so long was mainly because this army was composed of prisoners, evil teenagers and rangers.

Needless to say, the prisoners are not disciplined at all, and it is a blessing that they did not rebel on the spot. What the court thought was that these people were all sentenced to death anyway, so it would be better to be sent to the front line as cannon fodder because they were wasted on the execution ground.

The evil boys are a group of young refugees who have no serious jobs and no land to cultivate at home. These young refugees are energetic and are idle every day. If they don’t deal with it in time, it is easy to cause trouble. So they simply go to the front line to be cannon fodder. Winning can open up the territory and expand their territory, and losing can stabilize social security.

As for the ranger, let alone, most of them are underworlds, and they are normal to collect protection fees and other things. They are also arrested by the soldiers of the county and county vassals in Bashu and sent to the front line as consumables. They won the victory in opening the border and lost stable public security, and they would not lose any loss.

Taking such a group of things with almost no military discipline to the battlefield, you can imagine how fast Wang Changyu's marching speed is.
