In the northern part of Yongchang County, Zhao Wuji's army and Zhao Gui's army met at Geng Town, which is more than ten miles east of Liangcang City.
The town is not big, because it is located in the hinterland of the northern plains of Yongchang County, and between the three military towns of Tongcang, Zhengcang and Liangcang, there has never been a problem of monsters and beasts, so it does not even have a simple city wall, it is an open town
.
The town has a very large population, but in the cold winter, most farmers just stay in their houses and don't have many recreational activities.
When the two armies arrived, most of the people in the town didn't feel much. Recently, armies from all sides have been mobilized frequently, especially when the armies were camped in the wild and did not disturb the people. The people were too lazy to pay attention and just stayed away.
Just don't look for trouble.
But some powerful families in the town were very different. Not only did they give up a few pieces of land early to accommodate the army's camp, but they also quietly sent a lot of money, food and property to the camp under the cover of night, until they heard that the generals in the military camp had all accepted it.
I breathed a sigh of relief, but I guess a good night's sleep is destined to be impossible.
In the core military tent that was first erected in the army camp, the two leading generals Zhao Wuji and Zhao Gui, as well as Shen Cheng, Chen Shaoxiong and other confidant generals gathered together.
There was a map marked with many symbols hanging in the military tent. Zhao Wuji was standing in front of the map with his hands behind his back, looking at it. Zhao Gui and others were sitting on both sides, forming a semicircle.
"According to the latest intelligence from the ANBU, there is another large army from the east of Guang County heading eastward to Hanoi County in three directions, aiming directly at Huaicheng." Zhao Wuji stretched out two fingers and clicked on the location of Huaicheng, the capital of Hanoi County, on the map.
, "There is a high probability that things will change in Hanoi County!"
Everyone in the military tent was shocked. After looking at each other, Zhao Gui was the first to ask, "Uncle, are you saying that the Yun family in Guangjun can capture Huaicheng in one fell swoop?!" He frowned slightly, "If my nephew remembers correctly,
Now the mother of Yun Sanshan, the governor of Guang County, is still the daughter of the Shen family of Hanoi County!"
"So what," Zhao Wuji didn't look back. He traced two fingers across several key locations in the hinterland of Hanoi County, and finally landed on the Han River. "Hanjiang and Yahe rivers cross Hanoi County. As long as the Yun family
Seizing the advantage on the water, he can cut Hanoi County into three dead areas that are difficult to relate to each other. The two areas north of the Han River and south of the Ya River can be snatched by others. He only needs to capture Huaicheng steadily.
The most fertile land in the middle, the two rivers, and the hundreds of years of accumulation in Hanoi County were swallowed up bit by bit. As soon as he finished digesting it, Guang County was the core hinterland of Southwest Hanzhou with many soldiers, food, and no disasters from foreign barbarians.
Watching tigers fighting from the mountains, you can advance, attack, retreat or defend, taking advantage of everything..."
"Hanoi County is the richest county in southwest Hanzhou. It should not be so unbearable after hundreds of years of accumulation. Especially Huaicheng City is strong and well-armed and cannot be easily captured by Guang County. Moreover, Hanoi County has a close relationship with the counties in Jiangzhou.
Well, this time Guangjun goes to war without announcing it and Jiangzhou will definitely send troops to attack it. You must know that Jiangzhou navy is the best in Central Continent, and its sophisticated chariots are also an absolute weapon that is hard to find an opponent on land. Guangjun takes this step and says
If it's not good, it's the result of being stuck in the mud and unable to extricate yourself," Shen Cheng said.
"No matter how strong the city wall is, it can't withstand the enemy's attack from the inside. What Yun Bailou is best at is not fighting in battle formations, but things that don't seem to be on the stage. Originally, Lu Dongfeng, I, and the former prefect felt that
The Yun family has been in Anling County for a long time. If one day he really takes action, he should first go west and then east. Unexpectedly, his focus is all on Hanoi County from the beginning. His ambition, appetite, and calculation are so deep that it is shocking, but invisible.
This is in line with the governor's plan, and it will be beneficial to me in the short term." Zhao Wuji shook his head and said, "But from now on we have to pay more attention to Yun Bailou's actions. We have never understood that this person is just
He has been famous for a long time and cannot be underestimated. Now that he has made a move, a series of subsequent plans will be revealed. We can also watch his moves and see who he is. After all... we will face Guangjun in the future.
No doubt I am Lijun who is on the list!"
All the generals looked attentive after hearing this.
Zhao Wuji's finger went all the way west on the map, across Guang County, and drew a circle on a large area in the north of Anling County and Yongchang County. "Since Guang County is eastward, the initiative in this large area lies in our hands."
Above, the three major towns in the north of Yongchang County, Tongcang City and Zhengcang City have been captured by us. As long as we capture Liangcang City and gradually pacify the small towns and villages in the four directions, Yongchang Northland will actually be included in the control of our Li County. If
If we gather the army in Zhengcang and Tongcang, we can also completely trap Meng Zian's lone army to death..."
He paused and looked at the eager expressions of the generals. He tapped the map twice with his fingers and said, "But what the governor means is... let them return south!"
All the generals, including Zhao Gui, were shocked when they heard this, but no one dared to question it.
Zhao Wuji once again glanced at the position where everyone reached out to Liangcang City, "Meng Zian's people set a fire in Liangcang City and handed over the entire city to Han Feng. In all likelihood, they wanted to take advantage of the current situation in Yongchang North.
If he can temporarily withdraw from the army, it is indeed a way for him to lead tens of thousands of Yongchang's lone troops back south safely to preserve their strength for the funeral. A decisive battle with our army who now occupies a favorable geographical location is not in line with the current interests of Yongchang County."
He tapped the map again to suppress the discussion of the generals in front of him, "Meng Zian wants us to confront Han Feng. Now that our army has gathered in Liangcang City, we have fulfilled his wish, but we must be on guard.
Meng Zian suddenly went into danger, if so..." He stretched out his palm and slapped Zheng Cangcheng's position hard, "We can also fight him!"
Zhao Gui stood up and came to Zhao Wuji's side, pointed at Sichuan City, and then pointed at the line between Zhengcang and Tongcang, "Uncle, we left 10,000 defenders in Zhengcang and Tongcang each, but we used nearly 30,000 elite troops to surround them.
Liangcang City, if Meng Zian is not willing to flee back like this, but chooses to take a desperate risk and attack Zhengcang City, it will be too late for us to return to rescue. Compared with Liangcang, which was burned into an empty city by Meng Zian, Zhengcang is obviously better to me.
It’s much more important. As long as we defend Tongcang City and Zhengcang City and use this as a basis to build Liangcang City, what’s the difficulty?”
"It seems like this, but in fact, Liangcang City is by no means an insignificant place to me, Li County." Zhao Wuji pointed at Liangcang City and then at Ganshui Pass. "Once the suppression of Liangcang City is lifted, Ganshui Pass will be able to
It will be even more difficult to win back the current situation if we have the opportunity to provide support to the Liangcang defenders or allow the Liangcang defenders to evacuate, which will greatly damage the prefect’s subsequent arrangements, so we have to take a gamble this time. I have
Meng Zian was informed of the news that Lijun Qingqi was heading north out of Tianmen Pass. If he really ruined the overall plan of Lijun for his own personal gain, then Yongchang County would have to pay more than just a northern Yongchang.
A major battle between our army and the Yongchang Northern Army in the north will definitely be a life-and-death situation. By then, our army will not give up until we approach Yicheng, and then the most important central areas of Yongchang County may be lost.
Therefore, if the person leading the army is not Meng Zian, then the attack on Zhengcang City is very likely to happen, but since he is the one leading the army, it is hard to say."
All the generals were speechless again. Only Zhao Gui still stood in front of the map and checked it over and over again. After a long time, he asked softly, "Master Taishou...want to take Ganshui Pass?!"
Zhao Wuji looked at Zhao Gui and smiled slightly, pointing his finger at the location of Liangcang City on the map, and then rowed westward, crossing the Ganshui Pass line, and finally stopped at a large city in the southern hinterland of Anling County, "At this moment, Ru Ruochen
Nothing happened in Jingzhi's place. Nancheng should already be in our hands." His fingers drew a big circle with Nancheng as the core. "The turtle's shell is very hard, but what's inside the turtle's shell
But it's very soft. On the one hand, we have to trap Han Feng's army in Liangcang City to death. On the other hand, we have to wait until Han Feng, who is staring at Liangcang City, learns that Nancheng has lost Ganshui Pass and all logistics lines have been cut off.
After that, it’s time for us to attack Liangcang City in one fell swoop.”
This time, what Zhao Wuji said was even more unbelievable, but all the generals were silent.
"The person who worried the most about the situation as it is now is actually not Meng Zian. When our army came out of the mountains and suddenly captured Tongcang and Zhengcang, he didn't have many options to choose from. Yongchang County lost the first move.
Forcibly breaking the situation will only lead to a worse defeat. The only people to worry about are Han Feng and..." Zhao Wuji looked to the west, "Chen Jingzhi is alone behind enemy lines..."
