Ji Zi Volume Chapter 184 I want to become famous! (Third update!)
Feng Ziying was already in Qian'an City when he received Chai Ke's letter.
Putting down the letter, he sighed.
Chai Ke was kind enough and wrote a letter to remind him, but Zhang Jingqiu just asked You Shigong to give him a message, saying that he had to judge the situation by himself, and if it didn't work, he could give up Yongping.
To put it lightly, if I give up, I am afraid that I will have to take the blame and resign, and it will be at least three to five years before I can talk about the revival.
It seems that three to five years is not long, and I am only in my twenties. But with such a stain, my career path will be much more difficult and dangerous in the future.
The Ministry of War has no control over the affairs of the local people, and Feng Ziying does not need to report her various affairs in Yongping Prefecture to the Ministry of War.
In a word, if you win this battle, everything is easy to say. Even if there are some extraordinary things, you can still find ways to make up for them. But if you lose this battle, you will either die on the spot, or you will be dismissed from office. There is no
Good results.
“Brother, whose letter is this?” Zuo Liangyu asked curiously when he saw that Feng Ziying’s expression was not very good.
"Master Chai, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War." Feng Ziying had nothing to hide from Zuo Liangyu's question, "He is not very optimistic about our ability to hold Yongping. He wants us to decide based on the situation. If the Mongols are strong, we can withdraw first.
The question is Kunshan, do we still have a way out now?"
Zuo Liangyu was silent for a while.
Zuo Liangyu did not agree very much with Feng Ziying's request to stick to Qian'an, but now that Feng Ziying was personally in charge of Qian'an, there was nothing to say.
Rich people are not afraid of jades, so why should they be afraid of earthen pots from poor families like mine? Zuo Liangyu also had to admire Feng Ziying on this point.
“Do you still feel uneasy?” Feng Ziying saw Zuo Liangyu’s inner worry.
"Brother, I'm not afraid of death. I've never been afraid after eating this bowl of rice. We have dealt with the five Inner Khalkha tribes, and now the Uziyet tribe led by Zhuoli Kethunbatulu is the Chaohua Five.
The number one tribe in the tribe, but Zhuoliketu Hongbatulu is a bit old and has low energy. The Zasai of Hongjila tribe is gradually replacing his uncle Zhuoliketuhongbatulu. In terms of strength, Hongjila
The tribe can mobilize fifteen thousand elite cavalry, which is considered the most powerful among the five Chaohua tribes. The other tribes generally only have ten thousand cavalry."
Zuo Liangyu has been in Liaodong for several years and is no stranger to the grassland tribes.
The five tribes of the Inner and Outer Khalkhas, the Horqin people, the Haixi Jurchen tribes, plus the Jianzhou Jurchen tribes, and the Chahar people. These are all players on the grassland, and it is inevitable to have to deal with them, so naturally they have some understanding.
"This group of Mongolians are stronger than the Horqin people. At least they haven't been servile to the Donglu yet. Unlike the Horqin people, they almost threw themselves at Nurha's feet and actively surrendered."
Feng Ziying heard what Zuo Liangyu said was interesting, smiled and shook her head, "I don't blame these people. The Battle of Nine Tribes by Nurhaci really hurt the Haixi tribes and the Horqin people. They looked left and right, looking forward and backward, all for the sake of
For the survival of their own tribe, when the Zhou Dynasty becomes stronger, they will naturally come back. Like the Ming Dynasty, reset Nuergandusi or Wuliangha Sanwei. They will also be happy to do so, but the prerequisite is that you must
The fist is hard enough."
"So brother, we are going to inflict pain on the five inner Khalkha tribes in this battle. Before they want to fall to the Donglu in the future, they must carefully consider whether the line is worth it, and whether the gains outweigh the losses." Zuo
A stern look appeared on Liangyu's face, "For this reason, I have to let the tribes of Inner Kalkha and the Horqin people have a good taste of our new army of fire guns."
Feng Ziying was very happy about Zuo Liangyu's arrogance, which showed that the other party was confident, which was at least better than being timid.
“Kunshan, as long as you have this confidence, to be honest, I still hope in my heart that Ji Zhenjun can teach these Mongols a lesson inside and outside the border wall, although I know this hope is very small.”
Feng Ziying has received the news that the three battalions of Yanhe Camp, Taiping Camp, and Jianchang Camp have been assembled and assembled on the front line of Taiping Camp and Jianchang Camp, while Taitou Camp and Shimen Camp have also joined together to start fighting at Jialingkou and Jianhan Ridge.
The front line moved, preparing to face the Mongol invasion.
But the problem is that this fighting posture is a bit weird. This group has concentrated its strength, but the middle is empty. Your group should camp in the middle area around Liujiakou and Taolinkou, but why are you going either to the west or to the east?
, doesn’t this show that there is no confidence in stopping the Mongolian army?
Zuo Liangyu was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Brother, before we came, the Governor said not to put our hopes in Ji Town. Ji Town has the same difficulties as Ji Town. The orders from the Ministry of War are directly given to Sir You, even
It's hard for him to interfere, so..."
This is not in compliance with regulations, but it is reality. Facing the Mongolian army moving south, if we still stick to orders and go through the Jiliao Governor's Mansion in Liaoyang first, there will be no time at all, so the Ministry of War can only directly command.
"I know and understand, and Brother You San also made it clear to me, so I never had high hopes for them." Feng Ziying said lightly: "Originally I just hoped that they could at least stop it, but now it seems
, Ji Zhen is not willing to do even this little scene work."
As the two of them were talking, they saw a few people walking up from under the city wall.
“Report!”
“Speak.” Entering the wartime state, Feng Ziying also began to show her temperament as a military commander.
“The naval camp of the Denglai naval fleet has arrived in Funing, and now they are coming to contact us.” The person who came up to report was a senior officer under Zuo Liangyu.
"Oh? So soon?" Feng Ziying was surprised and happy. He had received a letter from Shen Yourong before and roughly agreed on a time. However, he did not expect that the other party would arrive so soon, and they would all arrive in Funing, starting from Yuguan Port. It will take two days to land in Funing, right? "Ask him to come up quickly."
I saw a young military general running up the steps of the city wall. When he saw Feng Ziying, he cupped his fists and saluted: "The last general, Denglai Navy Marine Guard Hou Chengzu, has seen Mr. Feng."
"Your Majesty Hou Chengzu? Are you Longquan Gonglang?" Feng Ziying heard the young military general announce his name, and his face became solemn, and he clasped his fists and returned the salute.
The young general was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "I don't dare, it's Chengzu."
“Brother Huaiyu, you don’t have to be polite. Mr. Shen highly praised Brother Huaiyu in his letter. I have also heard of Brother Huaiyu’s name for a long time.”
Feng Ziying knew Hou Chengzu because in his previous life, his father Hou Jigao was a versatile general. He was not only a famous anti-Japanese general, but also a famous calligrapher. He was also very knowledgeable in geography and political theory.
His works "An Examination of the All-Zhejiang Military System" and "Japanese Customs" are extremely famous, especially "Japanese Customs". Feng Ziying has read it several times and wrote about the current Japanese geographical environment, politics, customs, economy and culture, etc. It is extremely profound and detailed and is an important material for studying Japan's national conditions and people's sentiments.
"Master Feng is overly praised. Huaiyu cannot deserve such praise." Hou Chengzu was also a little excited. Feng Ziying's reputation was too great. He had heard of Feng Ziying when he was still in Songjiang Wei. Later, she was recruited by Shen Yourong to join the Denglai Navy Fleet. As a defense, Shen Yourong asked him to lead the navy battalion to help in the battle.
Originally they were supposed to disembark from Yuguan Port, but Hou Chengzu knew something about the situation in Beizhi, so he asked some boats with shallower drafts to go upstream from the Yang River and disembark in Funing, thus saving some time, but now The main ships also docked at Yuguan Port.
"Brother Huaiyu, you don't have to be polite. If you don't see anyone outside, you are two years older than me. Just call me Ziying. I will call you Brother Huaiyu." Feng Ziying talked to Hou Chengzu cheerfully and enthusiastically, which made Hou Chengzu Very excited, "Since your Excellency said this, how dare Huaiyu disobey?"
"Okay, let me introduce you, Brother Huaiyu. This is my brother, Zuo Liangyu, whose courtesy name is Kunshan. You can call him Kunshan. He is the commander-in-chief of the Second Division of the Liaodong Army's Bashan Camp. This time, he is with another Our colleagues also came to reinforce us in Yongping, and they also trained thousands of strong people for our Yongping Mansion..."
The three of them greeted each other and exchanged greetings.
Zuo Liangyu also didn’t expect that the Denglai Navy would send out a naval camp, and it would arrive so quickly, arriving earlier than the soldiers and horses of Shanhaiguan and Yehe tribes, so the farther away they were, the earlier they would arrive.
While we were talking, someone else came to report.
When Feng Ziying asked, it was the news sent back by the scouts.
“A total of more than 50,000 people from the Inner Khalkha tribes and Horqin people have crossed the Qinglong River and arrived at the Sanchakou area to gather..."
Feng Ziying told the two of them the news, and her heart was boiling with excitement. It was finally coming, and it was more than she expected.
Soon a subordinate sent a map, and Feng Ziying simply unfolded it on the city wall and pointed out the location of the three intersections to the two of them.
Sanchakou is located on the east bank of the Qinglong River, only one day's walk from the border wall. If you go south along the Qinglong River, you will reach Taolinkou, a famous pass, and to the west you will reach Lengkou.
“So it seems that the Mongols may have to break through from the Taolingou area?” Hou Chengzu frowned, “I wonder how many troops Ji Town has on this front?”
Feng Ziying and Zuo Liangyu looked at each other and smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid there is only a small scout force, and the main force is hundreds of miles away."
“What should we do?” Hou Chengzu was stunned. He didn’t know what was going on here.
“Brother Huaiyu, please be patient. When I introduce the situation here to you, you will know how we are going to fight this battle.”
Feng Ziying introduced the current difficulties and arrangements in Ji Town, as well as the current layout of Yongping Mansion. Hou Chengzu also changed his color after hearing this. After a long time, he said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect the situation to be so bad, but this is exactly what I want."
Wait until the warriors have made great achievements."
Feng Ziying was stunned, but Zuo Liangyu was very excited and felt the same way. He couldn't help but said: "Brother Huaiyu's words are exactly what I want. In this battle, I want to use Qian'an City to establish my authority and let the Mongols understand
, I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, cannot be insulted, even if there are thousands of strong people, I can still make them have their heads broken and bleed, and they will come back defeated!"
Hou Chengzu also laughed loudly: "Kunshan's intention is exactly what I want, and I can use this battle to make us famous!"
