Chapter 1291 Waiting for good news

The two of them were slightly surprised and quickly opened it to read. After a while, they raised their heads at the same time.

The contents of the letters are generally the same, but there are some differences. For example, Fan Rong specifically reminded that Yu Wenxiong could bring gunpowder and a team of artillerymen specialized in operating artillery...

Yu Wenxiong must be kept in the Wei army, and Liang Jun must not be allowed to go.

The letter was very detailed, and Himekawa quickly understood the whole process.

He immediately became excited.

Zhu Wen was also excited. This matter was done. The previous efforts were not in vain, but Wei Guo interfered.

The letter stated in detail that the battle across the river would be temporarily postponed and a scout ship would be sent to observe the enemy's movements. Yu Wenxiong would send out a signal when he was ready.

His warships will also display special flags and take advantage of the main attack opportunity to defect to their own side. When the time comes, be sure not to attack and just receive them.

Then it's done, and the whole process is simple.

Now all they have to do is wait.

Yu Wenxiong definitely won't be able to go to Yuanshan Mansion that quickly, and he also has to fight for the opportunity to be the vanguard to attack.

This should be regarded as an uncertain place, but Yu Wenxiong also gave an explanation.

Emperor Yuanwu no longer wants to see him, and maybe this opportunity will come to him even without him fighting for it...

Battle across the river postponed?

They have already made preparations and have made plans to launch an attack in three days. Temporary changes are not a big deal.

It's just that the consumption will increase again. People can't live here without eating or drinking. If they attack the other side, they can at least plunder Daning.

The south is a prosperous land in Daning, so we will definitely get supplies... If you delay, you will delay. In comparison, Yu Wenxiong is more important.

artillery!

Is that what it's called?

Zhu Wen already had an idea in mind, but Ji Chuan was more decisive than him.

"Xin Yuanbai, please pass on the order to postpone the cross-river battle scheduled to start in three days. The specific date is to be determined."

He gave the order directly.

It was only half a month's delay, but he could obtain a powerful weapon like artillery and how to use it. He could figure out which was more important.

Ji Chuan's decisiveness surprised Zhu Wen.

He also immediately gave an order to the frontier army general Gu Yushu.

"Send the order, the battle across the river is postponed."

This battlefield is quite special. The Liang State dispatched two armies of 600,000 troops, namely the Border Guard Army and the Border Guard Army.

But the battlefield was in the Wei State, and the ships were also provided by the Wei State, so the command was completed by two families.

There was no discussion on this issue in advance but a tacit understanding was formed directly.

No one will give up command to the other. Fortunately, there is no conflict yet, at least the goals are the same...

The two emperors gave orders at the same time, which made them a little surprised.

"Receive the Holy Will."

"Follow the Holy Order."

The two responded immediately.

"Back off."

They had a tacit understanding and spoke almost at the same time.

"First win over Yu Wenxiong and the artillery he brought. As for the ownership... we will discuss it in detail later."

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Agree."

They reached an agreement after a simple conversation. They are both smart people. It would be no good for anyone to have conflicts at this time...

"OK!"

“Really good!”

Himekawa smiled and said: "We were originally worried that the enemy would use sky thunder..."

"No, it should be called artillery now. Now we can have it ourselves soon. Even if we know very little information, we can let the craftsmen make it."

"yes!"

Zhu Wen also said: "When we master this kind of weapon, our chances of winning will be even greater!"

He remembered the feeling of falling behind when he played against Daning before, and he hated this feeling.

"Wei Jun doesn't know something. Our country has put in a lot of effort for Yu Wenxiong, and the spies he sent have died one after another..."

Zhu Wen began to take the initiative.

"Who isn't?"

Ji Chuan smiled lightly and said: "Emperor Yuanwu was dissatisfied with Yu Wenxiong, but it was because of me."

"At that time, I handed over Xiao Luan to Emperor Yuanwu. Later, Xiao Luan was taken back to Beijing and publicly punished. Yu Wenxiong remonstrated that Emperor Yuanwu should not kill everyone..."

"That's right..."

Zhu Wen was surprised. He didn't expect Jichuan to know such details.

Could it be said that he really had the idea of ​​winning over Yu Wenxiong?

This Himekawa is much more mature than before, and he looks a bit like his father, Emperor Jianwen.

Knowing that he could not gain any advantage through words, Zhu Wen did not mention it again. He did not want to cause conflicts between the two parties.

"Yu Wenxiong's surrender will not only bring us many benefits, but also deal a blow to Emperor Yuanwu."

This change of topic made Himekawa also interested. After all, it was something that could make Guan Ning feel embarrassed.

"Yes, he, Emperor Yuanwu, is so proud and arrogant, and now he's been slapped in the face!"

"Wait for the opportunity!"

"Should be waiting for good news!"

"Ha ha!"

Both of them laughed, and their laughter was filled with joy.

The upcoming attack has been stopped, and rumors are waiting for the opportunity. This kind of thing cannot be revealed before it is actually accomplished...

Scout ships were sent out every day to keep watch, waiting for the agreed signal.

Time passes like this day by day.

On the other side of the enemy's bank, there are also troops stationed, but the scale is much smaller in comparison.

Daning's military strength is not small, but there are too many battlefields to be stationed in scattered places, and it is a bit stretched when they are spread out.

There were 160,000 troops stationed in Jixian County, Yuanshan Prefecture. This was a huge difference from the size of the enemy's army, which made the people in the south panic.

This was temporarily stabilized because of Guan Ning's arrival, but the situation is still not optimistic.

The South has been reorganized several times by Guan Ning, and both commerce and farming have developed greatly. More than 70% of the money and food needed for this war were supplied by the South. If it suffered heavy losses in the early stages of the war, it would be a huge blow to Da Ning.

However, the enemy's army was so large and numerous that it was impossible to stop them from attacking across the river.

The situation is serious.

The soldiers all noticed that even His Majesty's face had tightened recently and he had not shown a smile for many days...

"Huaizhou sent information that the Wei army has attacked Ancheng and is still continuing to attack."

"Beilin Province sent information that Liang Jun has attacked Beilin City, and its burning, killing, and looting in Beilin Province has aroused public outrage... There is another news. Ran Teng, the commander of Liang Jun's border army, was captured by our army."

"Information came from Huizhou that the Wei navy has appeared in our country's coastal waters, and all four major fleets have been dispatched."

Tian He'an, the general in charge of military intelligence, took a booklet and reported to Guan Ning. As the emperor, he must know the overall progress no matter where he is.

So far, all the information we hear is about the enemy's attack. The only good news is that the commander of the border army, Liang Jun'an, has been captured.

"According to the scouts we sent, the enemy on the other side should launch an attack in the near future. Emperor Wu of Liang and Emperor Jianwu have both arrived."

Guan Ning kept listening and then asked: "Is there any chaos in the southern states?"

"There are some circumstances...but..."

An official was about to report, when a general approached hurriedly outside.

"Your Majesty, Yu Wenxiong is here!"
Chapter completed!
