Chapter 1938 Asking for help from Yongzhou to save Jiangling
Liu Muzhi softly said "Oh": "But the more than 20,000 people under Yang Quanqi's command are all elite soldiers who came south from Guanzhong and followed him in battles for many years. Yongzhou soldiers and horses have always been called the North Prefecture of Jingzhou.
Their combat power cannot be underestimated. You have fought alongside them before, so you should know their strength."
Liu Yu shook his head: "Huan Xuan's Jingzhou generals are not inferior to the Yongzhou soldiers. I saw the strength of the five Jingzhou generals during the last fight. Even our Beifu generals are basically on the same level as them."
Originally, when two powerful forces met, the brave would win, but Yang Quanqi had fewer troops, his strength was not as good as Huan Xuan's, and he had lost his rightful name. With no foreign aid on both sides, Yang Quanqi was bound to lose."
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "But there is also Yin Zhongkan. He is the official governor of Jingzhou. He also has 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and horses, and he is sitting in the capital of Jiangling. If he joins forces with Yang Quanqi, he may not have a chance of winning."
Liu Yu said with a smile: "Yin Zhongkan was talented in literature and had a reputation of loyalty and filial piety, but he was not familiar with military matters. Huan Xuan was willing to give Jiangling to him because the city of Jiangling was full of Huan family members and people's hearts were toward the Huan family. Really?"
If they fight, the whole city will fall to Huan Xuan. When Yin Zhongkan went to Jingzhou, he took office on a bicycle and had no foundation at all. The soldiers he recruited in the past few years were all in the Jingzhou area, and most of their family members were
In the countryside controlled by Huan Xuan, if a fight really breaks out, I'm afraid most of them will defect before the battle."
"Yin Zhongkan must have known this well, so he tried every possible means to win over Yang Quanqi. This would only kill Yang Quanqi even more. If he did not form an alliance with Yin Zhongkan, Yang Quanqi would gather his troops in Xiangyang and Yongzhou, which have been in business for many years.
In this area, if we fight locally, we might be able to compete with Huanxuan's army. If that doesn't work, we can also recruit foreign aid from the Later Qin and Northern Wei Dynasties. However, if we go to Jiangling to rescue Yin Zhongkan, we will be fighting away from home on Huanxuan's territory. There is no way.
The difference is, if the decisive battle fails, there will be no chance of escaping to defend the city or requesting foreign aid."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "I'm afraid that the facts will probably develop in the direction you guessed. According to the latest military report, Huan Xuan pretended to attack Jiangling as soon as he made his move, attracting Yin Zhongkan's defenders from all over the country to gather together, and then suddenly turned north and captured
He arrived at Xiakou, Yin Zhongkan's grain-gathering place. Before that, Yin Zhongkan, in order to confront Huan Xuan, sent half of Jiangling's grain stocks downstream to save the famine in Wu. Last month, Jingzhou suffered another
When there was a flood, Yin Zhongkan took the remaining army rations to rescue the people. Now he has no food left. Once the food and grass in Xiakou are lost, within ten days, the entire army will be in ruins."
Liu Yu sighed: "There is a reason why soldiers should not be led by kindness, and officers should not be carried out by justice. The rations are to provide food for the army during the battle, and it is really strange that Jiangling is flooded at this time."
Liu Muzhi said sternly: "Don't worry about these things for the time being. If it is as you said, Huan Xuan will win soon, then we must seize the time and completely eliminate these demons. You have
What are your plans and plans?”
Liu Yu curled up his lips: "Then it depends on whether the imperial court, which is controlled by the mafia and major aristocratic families, will give me the opportunity and status to fight the monster thieves. Although Marshal Liu came a little late this time, he
I think he still wants to seize the last chance to fight the monster thieves. In the six counties of Jiangbei, Uncle Zhong and Gao Yazhi stationed troops to defend. Uncle Zhong, needless to say, Gao Yazhi guards Guangling and is also the commander's son-in-law, just like his son-in-law.
, let’s see the outcome of his battle with the demon thief, if it goes against him, I think it will be time to use me.”
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "It seems that you have planned everything. Do you need me to do anything for you in court?"
Liu Yu curled his lips: "Help me arrange to meet Miao Yin, it's time."
Xiangyang, Yongzhou Governor's Office.
Yang Quanqi, wearing a general's robe and armor, was sitting behind the commander's desk. The usual county governor's mansion was now like a military camp. The people running in and out were all civil servants dressed in military uniforms and recording things.
He is also dressed in short clothes, just like a soldier. On both sides of the hall, there are helmets and armor. Military academies are fully armed. Everyone's eyes are focused on the hall. He is dressed in leather armor, but his hair is tied with a crown.
, Liu Mai exudes a literati temperament.
Yang Quanqi's eyes were shining. He looked at Liu Yi's eldest brother and said in a deep voice: "Liu Canjun, come to Xiangyang at this time. What is the important matter for Governor Yin? Do you need my help?"
Liu Mai sighed: "To be honest, General Yang, this time my envoy did it for you, but it was a big misfortune. In order to harm you, this mad dog Huan Xuan falsely accused you of having connections with foreign countries, and just sat back and watched the fall of Luoyang. My envoy
You made a false accusation to the court on your behalf. He actually said that Yin Shijun was a party with you. Taking advantage of the current difficulties in the country, he raised troops to invade our Jingzhou. And his followers incited the people of Jingzhou to rise up and respond. Xiakou, Ma
All the first-class places have been lost. Now our army is at a disadvantage in the battle and has temporarily retreated to Jiangling. My envoy has invited me to come this time. I ask you to send troops quickly and come to Jiangling to join forces with my envoy to attack Huanxuan!
"
The first man on the left of Yang Quanqi was a tall and thick man. He was Yang Guang, the eldest brother of Yang Quanqi, who was famous for his tyranny and brutality. He was a former Nanman captain. As soon as he heard this, he followed up and said: "Third brother,
What Liu Canjun said makes sense, Governor Yin is indeed in trouble because of us, and due to emotions and reasons, we all have to save him."
Yang Quanqi waved his hand to stop Yang Guang from continuing, and said: "Liu joined the army. I have an evil relationship with Huan Xuan simply because I can't bear to see him treating Jingxiang as the private property of his Huan family and disregarding the country's disobedience."
Since the governor of Yin is a loyal person, he will naturally stand with me, and therefore he is attacked by the traitor Huan Xuan. This is for the sake of national justice, not a personal grudge. If it were me, Yang Quanqi, alone
, without saying a word, I immediately picked up my sword, mounted my horse, and went to fight the national disaster with you. But now I have twenty to thirty thousand soldiers, the entire Yongzhou, and hundreds of thousands of people. Since the country has entrusted them to me,
Then I have to be responsible for their wealth and lives, and I can’t act impulsively!”
"Huan Xuan has been planning for a long time for his ambition to usurp power. However, we follow the country's system and recruit people to join the army when necessary. When necessary, we only retain a small number of standing troops. This was also the last time Luoyang was in trouble and I was too late.
In order to gather troops and horses to rescue, we can only speak nice words to the Wei captives for the time being and ask them to send troops first. The reason why I have only 8,000 troops in my hands now. Although they are all elite soldiers, the number is still insufficient.
