Chapter IX Yin and Yang Dangerous Situation
The marchings of the three parties are no longer hidden, and the purpose is also very clear. When Tang Yuan marched urgently to Chongren, the Xuan army had already arrived in Linchuan Town, which confirmed his guess that the Xuan army's purpose was Fuzhou, and then received information.
The army sent troops from three groups, and Wuzhou almost surrendered without fighting. At most, Yu Qingwu and Xiao Ze's army could join the city of Raozhou in three days, which made Tang Yuan even more confirm his estimate.
"Father, what should I do? The Xuan Army's occupation of Linchuan is basically a foregone conclusion. Why don't I lead the troops to attack him? This is really useless." Tang Yao complained. He was dissatisfied with the fact that Xiang Xu had so many soldiers in his hands.
The horse was unable to stop it.
Tang Yuan had a gloomy face. He didn't want to pursue Xiang Xu too much. In fact, when they discovered that Xuan Jun had already moved. It was really no wonder that Xiang Xu was so thought about it and said, "Don't talk nonsense! Notify Xiang Hou."
, let him change the way and attack Yuanzhou with all his might. Be sure to retake Yuanzhou before the Changsha Xuanjun arrives!"
Tang Yao didn't dare to delay, so he quickly went down to make arrangements. Looking at Tang Yao's figure, Tang Yuan always felt something was wrong. Xuan Jun's idea was right, but why didn't he wait until the Changsha army arrived in Yuanzhou before launching? Could it be that they had it.
Confidence that Yuanzhou will not lose? Such a military move is not in line with the usual strategy of the Xuan Army. Tang Yuan shook his head. Now he doesn't care about these things. The most important thing is to arrive at Fuzhou as soon as possible.
Tang Yuan's entanglement is also Deng Ang's entanglement. Deng Ang led the army to Yuanzhou faster. He was scolding, scolding Yu Geng and scolding Xiao Jin Fu. His hastily decided to change his goals and intentions, which caught him off guard.
Taking the army like a long snake, looking at the geographical map in my hand, I arrived in Wenshi Town and had not yet left Xiangtan Province. It would take five days to arrive in Yuanzhou City no matter how fast it was. I hope Fang Keming from Yuanzhou could defend it.
.
"Assistant Commander, this is not a solution. The last general asks to lead a cavalry first!" This is Deng Ang's beloved general Chang Yuan, and also the commander of Ningxiang.
Deng Ang smashed his mouth and said, "Well, don't have a cavalry anymore. All the cavalry battalions will go with you. You must arrive at Yuanzhou City within three days. If you encounter obstacles on the road, don't worry, go straight to Yuanzhou. I hope
That scholar Fang Keming can persevere!”
"Looking at the wet place in the morning, the flowers are overgrown and Jinguan City. The ancients did not deceive me!" Meng Yan sighed at the early spring Chengdu City.
However, Yan Lan, who accompanied him, did not have such a good mood. Her face was wrinkled, and she endured it again and again, saying, "Your Majesty! The situation in Jiangyou has become a mess!"
"Well, are there any letters in Hanzhong?" Meng Yan asked lightly, his eyes still immersed in the scenery of Chengdu.
Yan Lan sighed heavily and said, "His Highness of the King of Qin is ready to counterattack. The Shutai and the Military Affairs Office are already jointly analyzing the King of Qin's plans."
"Well, it's not bad. Lao Eleven has become more and more stable. Where is Haiqingcheng? I remember Di Xin has already consolidated his army."
Yan Lan had already started rolling his eyes and said in a bad mood: "Report to Your Majesty, the army of Xuelang Mansion has gathered in Shangchuankou, but Gao Shuo Yanxi is still discussing the matter of food and grass with the logistics department. As long as the food and grass are in place, he will be ready to send troops.
”
"Well, there is a Lan Town near Jincheng. Tell Di Xin to send troops to Lan Town first, and all the food and grass are taken to Lan Town." Meng Yan was still unsatisfied with the beautiful scenery of Chengdu, as if he couldn't see enough.
"Your Majesty, please make sure you decide on Jiangyou's affairs as soon as possible!" Yan Lan really couldn't bear it anymore. Neither Hanzhong nor Haiqing's side were the focus.
"What's the use of being anxious? The Tiger Mansion has decided. Even if you pass by Chengdu Feige now, it must be too late. Be patient and wait. The most serious thing is that Yuanzhou is lost. Besides, Xuan Song will not stare at him.
"Meng Yan turned around and said with a smile.
Jiangyou is already in chaos. The military action plan formulated earlier was completely bankrupt. The generals on the front line should make decisions on the spot. As the court and as a backing, what can be done now is to support them with all their strength. Just say
When Lan was anxious, Xuan Song's vanguard army probably had arrived at the Xizhou front line. Since it was in chaos, we should continue to be in chaos. The more chaos, the better. He believed in his subordinates.
Yan Lan was speechless and thought for a while. It seemed that it was useless to be anxious. After a while, he said, "Your Majesty, the six generals' mansions have moved the four generals' mansions. We are under great pressure this year. Are you going to let the Wanxiang Army?
Don't go to the plateau?"
Meng Yan shook his head and said, "If you want to fight, you can fight. The Vientiane Army must solve the problem of the Great Snow Mountain before October this year. As long as we occupy the Snow Mountain Pass, Zhu Mu and the Qing tribe will not dare to invade the territory easily, and on the grassland, they will also be
There will be peace.”
"Do you want to use troops against Rong Gui as soon as possible?" Yan Lan roughly guessed Meng Yan's thoughts.
Meng Yan sighed and said seriously: "The Central Plains have been in chaos for decades, and the foolish emperors of the previous dynasty have been almost a hundred years. This situation must be ended as soon as possible, and the people will suffer.
Can't stop, people from Donghai, people from Beimu are eyeing each other. Why do you think Xiao Yu is unwilling to have a big conflict with me? He is entangled in the East China Sea and wants to get rid of the chaos in Jiangyou as soon as possible."
"So, take Rong Gui and force Zhong Sanniang to go south. Your Majesty wants to divide the river with Xiao to rule?" Yan Lan's words were a little frightened.
"Brother, do you still want our younger generation to continue to conquer like this? If we can do it, try our best to let him complete it. Of course, I want to unify the Central Plains, but Xiao Yu will not follow my wishes and rule the river.
I'm afraid he doesn't want to, so we must master the southern border as soon as possible, at least have enough strength to fight Xiao Yu!"
Yan Lan felt so angry that he was panting. On the one hand, he was frightened and excited. He was frightened by his Majesty's continued like this, and he would decay the financial situation of Daxuan. What was excited was that if he had completed the unification of the Central Plains among this generation, as His Majesty said.
My long-cherished wish will be honored forever and respected by thousands of people. How exciting it is to be able to be attached to the tail horse.
Yan Lan's irregular breath seemed to affect Fang Keming, but the reason why Fang Keming had difficulty breathing was that the damn Chu army could not conquer the city continuously, and then put smoke into the city, which was also a loss.
Fang Keming was so confused that his eyes were hard to open. He breathed and his mouth was filled with thick smoke, which was choking to death. He didn't understand that such a large Yan Chu army could have a way to attack the city?
Before I could think about it, I saw the commander of Yuanzhou who was responsible for defending the city coming to report, "Sir, cough cough, it's not a solution to continue like this! Cough cough cough, you're going to have an idea! These grandchildren are so hateful!"
Fang Keming quickly ran his brain. Today is the second day of Xiang Xu's attack. The Yuanzhou garrison plus the 3,000 people left by Jin Fu, totaling less than 10,000 people, and now nearly 30% of them have been lost.
However, the Chu army may not be easy. At least 5,000 people were lost, but it could not resist the number of Chu soldiers. Suddenly, a light of inspiration appeared in my mind and I quickly said, "Commander Tu! Send someone to the Xicheng Gate to flush Yuan Jiang's water.
Come to the city and tell the people that if they want to survive, they will sacrifice their family business first, and the court will rebuild it for them."
Commander Tu took a deep breath after hearing this, but he sucked thick smoke in his mouth. The white-faced scholar was really cruel, but there was no better way at the moment, so he hurriedly gave up and went down.
Xiang Xu was not crazy, but time waited for no one. The task of cutting off the Xuan Army was not completed. Now he was trying to seize Yuanzhou before Deng Ang’s army came. He had thought about setting fire and setting smoke.
Yuanzhou City is an ancient city, with a narrow and irregular city, and it is not easy to dissipate the smoke. It just so happened that the Chu army was at the upper vent, so it was not that troublesome to attack the city. Building a ladder just shifted the eyes of the defenders in the city. What they are doing is to break through the water gate along the waterway.
.
"Marty! The enemy troops of the Mizuno are defending the death to the death. They have been retaliated for more than ten times, and they will never be beaten back!" The subordinates hurriedly reported with a look of ashes on their faces.
"How is the situation at the main entrance?!" Xiang Xu had a gloomy face. Xuan Jun's combat power was unexpected, which hurt him very much.
"The city gate bolt has been broken, but the enemy inside is still blocking the door, which is difficult to break for a while!"
Xiang Xu pounded the big tree next to him heavily and said viciously: "Put the tincture! Burn the city gate! Burn the city of Yuanzhou!"
The subordinates were stunned. This was the method that soldiers were most reluctant to choose. Not only would this method be despised by people all over the world, but when they saw Xiang Xu's face, their subordinates still did not dissuade him.
Just as the Chu army was preparing turtle oil, Yuan Jiang's water had broken down and rushed into the city directly. The flood had no route, and by the way, it flooded the Chu army that was sieging the city, and the city was instantly filled with oceans.
Xiang Xu laughed at this moment, laughing so hard that he shouted: "Populate the turmeric oil in the water!"
The subordinates were a little hesitant. After all, there were many Chu soldiers in front. Xiang Xu took the knife and strode forward, shouting: "No matter! Add turmeric oil immediately! Light the fire!"
At this moment, Fang Keming, on the top of Yuanzhou City, looked at the Chu army in the distance, and a large pile of dark things pouring into the water. Fang Keming frowned and wondered what it was, suddenly turned around and shouted: "Tu Tu"
Command! Hurry! Let the people retreat along both sides of the river to the north and south gates!”
Commander Tu was confused. He had just chiseled open the waterway, so why did this big brother go crazy? He hurried up to the city tower. Fang Keming grabbed him tightly as soon as he saw him and said, "The Chu army poured heavily turbulent oil in the river!"
Commander Tu staggered, it was so fatal! The Chu army actually burned the city regardless of morality and used strong tinder oil. Commander Tu couldn't care about Fang Keming, and rushed down the city and evacuated the people in ten steps. Dongcheng and Xicheng were finished!
Fortunately, Fang Keming discovered it in time. When the hot turbulent oil floated on the water and boiled to Yuanzhou City, most of the people had retreated to the north and south cities. There were not many casualties. At this moment, it was already dark, but from a distance, Yuan was
A long fire dragon in the city of Zhou was burning constantly.
"Mr. Fang, the water recedes tonight, and the east and west cities will be scorched earth tomorrow morning. I'm afraid I can't stop it!" Commander Tu collapsed on the city tower, and he was a little desperate.
Fang Keming stood up with difficulty, looking at the dejected people and soldiers, unable to express endless sorrow. Deng Ang's army will not arrive as early as tomorrow afternoon, and even if it arrives in Yuanzhou, there is no danger to defend. Fang Keming closed his eyes and said.
: "Commander Tu, wait until the fire is burned tonight and take the people to wading to Fenyi."
Commander Tu squeezed out a smile and said, "Sir, take the people to Fenyi. We are all soldiers of Daxuan. Yuanzhou is the city of Daxuan, and we will die here even if we die!"
Fang Keming looked at Commander Tu, and then looked at the left-behind inner guard commander. The still-lived inner guards began to wipe their swords silently. This was their last glory and sacrificed their lives for the country.
Fang Keming smiled with tears in his eyes and said, "Okay! We are all Daxuan'erlang! If you die, die. Where is the governor of Yuanzhou?"
A scholar with his arms hanging slowly stood up and said, "Sir, I am from the academy and cannot leave the city."
"You are a people-friendly official. Your duty is to take your people to live. Do you know? Get ready quickly and stop fighting. Only when you live can you let the world know about the atrocities of the Chu army." Fang Keming said with his last strength.
The county magistrate no longer insisted because Fang Keming said correctly that the lives of the people were his. He endured the pain and knelt half-kneeled towards the soldiers, and then went downstairs silently without saying a word.
