Chapter 1800: Send troops to attack the thieves and guard the ferry
Xie Yan shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible, are they gods who can predict the future? After capturing the eight counties, instead of taking advantage of the victory, they transferred the main force out of the island? I don't believe it, this is impossible!"
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Shuai Yan, the demon thieves have been planning for this rebellion for many years. They have already stored a large amount of food and grass on overseas islands. After the last rebellion was successful, they quickly moved a large number of weapons and family members out to sea.
, the reason why we did not capture the main force of the demon thieves is because they avoided fighting. You must know that when they captured the eight counties, they had more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, how could they disappear without a trace? "
"As for the local tycoons in Wu, they are just reluctant to part with their family property and go to sea with the demon thieves. This time the Beifu army returned to Beijing, and Wu only had one army, Commander Yan, and most of them were allocated to pacify and recover various places.
The demon thieves knew the inside story of the manor, so they took advantage of the situation and entered. Now their military strength is more than ten times that of Yanshuai's troops. They are fully prepared. Their momentum is unstoppable. Yanshuai should have made a decision early!
So as not to follow in Wang Ningzhi’s footsteps!”
Xie Yan's eyes were red and he shouted: "Liu Muzhi, what are you talking about? How can I be compared to Wang Ningzhi, a magician who is not trained in military affairs and only pretends to be a fool? Are you trying to curse me?"
?”
Xie Yan's roar still echoed in the hall, and a rush of footsteps came from outside, but it was a messenger with a flag flying in. He knelt down at the foot of the steps, his face covered in sweat.
He said: "Yanshuai, Jiakou, Jiukou Fenghuo, sent a message saying that it was a pirate ship coming from the sea. At this moment, Jiukou garrison has fallen, and the bandit army is marching towards Shangyu!"
"
Xie Yan's expression, like his own, suddenly froze. After a while, he came back to his senses and shouted at the scout: "Explore again!"
The scout's footsteps followed his figure as he rushed out. The civil and military officials in the palace, including all the scribes, all looked at Xie Yan eagerly. Occasionally, some people looked at Liu Muzhi, already full of admiration.
, Liu Muzhi sighed: "Commander Yan, this time the monster thieves are coming with great force and cannot be defeated. It is best to urgently rectify the troops and horses, and at the same time, order the troops from various places to pacify the manors and suppress the bandits, and quickly move closer to the Wuxing area and shrink.
And you should lead your troops to evacuate immediately."
Xie Yan looked at Liu Muzhi, gritted his teeth and said, "Do you want me to abandon the whole city and all the people in the eight counties of Wudi without resisting, and lead the army to escape?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "It's not an escape, it's a transfer. The thieves have spies and insiders everywhere in Wu. It's unknown how many undercover agents there are in Shanyin City. In addition, this place fell a while ago.
The thieves haven't had time to find out what secret passages or mechanisms they have here. Shanyin City cannot be defended. If they take the common people with them, they will never be able to outrun the thieves. It will only affect the marching speed, so we can only lead the army to turn around quickly now.
Enter the Wuxing area and rendezvous with Liu Laozhi's Beifu Army before returning to fight!"
Xie Yan said sternly: "Stop talking, Liu Muzhi, although your information this time is correct, as the internal history of Kuaiji, I, Xie Yan, have the responsibility of guarding the land and protecting the people. How can I just run away without seeing a single demon thief?"
!”
A burst of urgent footsteps came in, and another scout, who was sweating profusely, ran in in despair: "Shuai Yan, urgent military information, thief army, the thief army has passed Shangyu County, Magistrate Zhang was killed, and now the thief army
Pioneer, come straight to Shanyin City."
Beads of sweat began to form on Xie Yan's forehead. Liu Muzhi gritted his teeth and continued: "Commander Yan, now is not the time to show off. Just like the Battle of Feishui, when the Qin army was strong.
, we can only give in a little or two and wait for the main force to join forces, but Fu Jian was too arrogant and led the vanguard to fight before all the troops could gather, which led to a huge defeat. We should respond..."
Xie Yan's eyes lit up and he burst into laughter: "Mu Zhi, what you said is so good. That's right. During the Feishui campaign, everyone said that the Qin army had millions and was invincible, so it had no choice but to retreat to Guangling.
Then we retreated to the south of the Yangtze River and relied on the natural dangers of the Yangtze River to protect ourselves. Only I insisted on asking for a battle against all opinions at that time, and this was the reason why the miracle of Feishui happened."
"Although the monster thieves may seem arrogant for a while, no matter how many there are, how many Qin troops there are in Feishui? No matter how powerful they are, can they be as strong as the Qin army that swept the world? Even Fu Jian, who destroyed countless countries and unified the north, can't
How can a few demon thieves do anything to me if I strike with thunder? Today, I will let you see what a real general is and what a real war is!"
As he spoke, his eyes turned to his left head: "Where is Lieutenant General Liu Qianzhi?!"
A tough general came out and said in military salute: "The last general is here. I am willing to listen to the commander-in-chief's military orders!"
Xie Yan gritted his teeth, took out a command arrow, and threw it at Liu Qianzhi's feet: "Immediately lead your 2,000 cavalry troops towards Xingpu. You must attack the bandit vanguard head-on. This time the monster bandits suddenly
When they attack, they attack at a high speed, because they know that if they form a frontal formation to compete with our army, they will definitely lose, so they want to use this sudden attack method to cooperate with the internal response in the city to seize the city in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, I have already
Seeing through their thoughts, General Liu, you are the general of the Beijing Guard Army. You have been following General Sima Shangzhi for many years. This time Wu Di suppresses the rebellion and has made many contributions. I will use you in this first battle. I hope you can perform at your best and fight.
The momentum of my Imperial Guards of the Jin Dynasty."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Liu Qianzhi's face, he gritted his teeth and said: "Commander, the bandits have a hundred thousand soldiers, and I have two thousand soldiers and horses..."
Xie Yan's face darkened and he said sternly: "General Liu, I have said that the bandit army may have a total of one hundred thousand, but their vanguard troops will not be too many. The army at Peikou landed and spread out, how can it be done?
It will take a day or two, so those who are attacking Shanyin now are just vanguards. As long as we attack head-on and resist the enemy in Qiantang Jiangnan, Xingpu, the enemy will not be able to raid Shanyin. In just two days, we will attack Shanyin in various places.
The soldiers and horses can be gathered together, and then even if there are a hundred thousand thieves, it will not be a problem!"
At this point, his expression softened a little and his tone softened a little: "General Liu, you are all brought here by me personally. I will never let the general fight alone. The general's headquarters are stationed outside the city, and the establishment
The whole army is the only unit that can be dispatched immediately. The general will attack the thieves first, and then I will rectify the soldiers and horses in the city as backup. The general only needs to repel the vanguard of the thieves and guard the Xingpu ferry."
Liu Qianzhi's face flashed with joy: "The general has received his order!" He bent down, picked up the order arrow at his feet, and strode out. Only Liu Muzhi folded his arms and looked at the background of his departure, seeming to smile.
