Chapter 15: Moves

Outside Songzhou City, people shouted and neighed, and an army was gathering.

The expressions on the sergeants' faces were very numb and they were not very interested.

Isn't it? It's been less than three months since I was repaired and I'm going to be pulled out to fight again. Although there were more rewards, everyone was still a little embarrassed.

Just a few thieves, is it necessary to send out a large army to attack?

The sun gradually rose, and the land of Songzhou after the snow was particularly enchanting.

A group of people rode by horses and passed by not far away, and the soldiers wisely shut their mouths.

Dinghui!

A man who commanded the army several times and was deeply trusted by the prince of Dongping.

In the Bianzhou military general system, except for the prince of Dongping, Hu Zhen is probably the oldest. But Hu Zhen has a high qualification and a high position, but he has lost his real power... If it weren't for the Tiankill Xia thieves who attacked Henan Prefecture, Hu Zhen might not have the chance to lead troops.

Confidants like Li Xi and Li Chongyin were beheaded, and the Huazhou Legion was also sent to the battlefield to consume. Hehe, Shao Shude came over and might save Hu Zhen's life.

Beyond Hu Zhen, there are Zhu Zhen, Ding Hui, Deng Jiyun, and Pang Shigu are not as good as them.

If these three people have to be divided, then Zhu Zhen is the number one general, and neither of the other two can compare.

But what happened to Zhu Zhen? He has not been allowed to lead his troops in recent battles. Could it be that his military achievements are too high and he doesn’t want to give him another chance?

The prince of Dongping just had a serious suspicion.

The old man Yuan Cong, a cavalry general Zhang Cunjing, a native of Bozhou, and Zhu Quanzhong, was walking with Ding.

"As soon as Du Hong was beaten, the general will be saved, otherwise who will give in the future?" Zhang Cunjing said helplessly: "This person is too bad. The six states of Eyue are not a small town, but they can't deal with the thief commanders."

Eyue Town is actually an anomaly in the south, because it has 30,000 troops, and a reward of 700,000 to 800,000 yuan per year is equivalent to 700,000 yuan.

During the more than 50 years when the Cai bandits in Huaixi fought against the imperial court, Eyue Town participated in several military operations against Huaixi Town.

For example, in the 15th year of Zhenyuan of Emperor Dezong, the coalition forces of the 16 vassal states, including Xuanwu, Heyang, Yicheng, Dongdu Ru, Chengde, Youzhou, Ziqing, Wei Bo, and Eyue, participated in the attack on Wu Shaocheng in Huaixi.

At that time, Eyue Town was also relatively good at fighting. In the ninth year of Yuanhe, the observation made Liu Gongchuo good at managing the army. Not only did he "disease, health care, and death, he would give him a lot of money." At the same time, "the wife of a soldier who was not careful in smuggling the river (this...)", so everyone was brave and his combat power increased dramatically.

What is outrageous is that the governors of Eyue are generally literati, who know the military and are good at governing the army, and they are indeed powerful. However, they are all noble families, good at calligraphy and articles, and they are also good at riding horses and shooting archery. It is hard to say that they are simple civil officials. After all, there is no obvious division between civil and military in the country.

Eyue Town also participated in the war to pacify Li Qi in western Zhejiang and Liu Pi in western Sichuan.

The town sent 1,500 soldiers to the northwest to guard the border every year. During the Xiantong period, he and Xu, Xu, Hua, Bian and other towns entered Xichuan to fight against Nanzhao.

In the third year of Xiantong, Nanzhao captured Annan. Wang Kuan, the commander of Annan, was in a hurry. More than 400 soldiers from Eyue, Xiangzhou, Jiangxi and Jingnan went to the rescue and rushed to Jiaozhi City. They fought with Nanzhao soldiers and killed more than 2,000 enemies, and eventually all died for their country.

Eyue Town was really brave enough to fight. Later, it was captured by Wang Xianzhi and Huang Chao twice, and it was completely ruined, becoming the current virtue.

"It doesn't matter whether Du Hong dies or not. But Shen, Guang and Cai are one, and they cannot be taken away by Xia thieves." Ding Hui tied his horses and looked at the army slowly moving, saying, "If Xia thieves occupy Caizhou, they will be passive in the overall situation. The troops plunder everywhere, and they cannot be defended, so there is a big trouble."

"What did Ge Congzhou do in Ruzhou? Once Luyang Pass is broken, if Pinggao City is thrown away again, Guangchengze and Longpi are captured, the fun will be great." Zhang Cunjing sneered.

He is a cavalryman and of course he cares about the horses most.

Guangchengze Ranch is located in Linru County, raising more than 20,000 horses, and Longpi Prison is located in Jiacheng and Xiangcheng, raising more than 10,000 horses. It is the two largest pastoral supervisors in southern Ruzhou.

Although Henan horse politics has developed well, it is still very distressing to lose 30,000 to 40,000 horses at a time.

"Ge Congzhou has no choice." Ding Hui sighed.

He knew the temperament of the prince of Dongping. It was surprising that Ge Congzhou, a person with a low-income experience, could rule the battle in Ruzhou, but if he lost his points this time, he would probably not have a good life in the future.

"We have to take 30,000 people to Caizhou, so we have to be careful. The Xia thief went north this time with great momentum, and I don't know how many people came." Ding Hui continued: "Stable the situation in Caizhou first. I have to take a look at what to do later."

Tens of thousands of troops went south to Chen, Xu, and Cai, which was the decision made by the prince of Dongping.

Before leaving, he specially summoned Ding to Bianzhou to give him face-to-face advice.

The core essence is to quickly defeat the army that went north by Zhe Zongben, and then go north to participate in the war to siege Zhu Xuan and Zhu Jin.

Speaking of this, what else does Ding have to understand?

The most important thing now is to conquer and destroy the three towns of Yan, Yun and Xu. If possible, it would be better to clean up Ziqing Town. These are all fat meats, and once eaten, they can greatly enhance their strength.

What are the benefits of fighting with the Xia thieves in Henan Prefecture? Both sides suffered huge losses.

Send an army of more than 100,000 to Luoyang, and then he was deceived by Shao Zhe and led him away.

Only by insisting on attacking the four towns of Yan, Yun, Xu and Qing and sweeping away their own rears can we mobilize our troops to advance westward and fight against the Xia bandits in Luoyang and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that Xia Tie is aware of this problem.

If you cannot break through the mountains of Henan Prefecture in a short period of time, sending troops from Nanyang to the north is indeed a wonderful game. If you let it go without any attention and don’t talk about other prefectures and counties, Cai, Xu, Ying and other prefectures will be quite threatened, which will be quite uncomfortable. After all, this is the backbone that provides money and food.

It is almost inevitable that tens of thousands of troops will reinforce the empty Caizhou. As for whether they will cross the Huai River and enter the Shen, Guang and An areas, it depends on the direction of the battle situation in Ruzhou.

For some reason, Ding Hui always felt that Shao Zhe would play other tricks. Perhaps it was Henan Prefecture or Heyang, and there was a great possibility of facing a war.

This is because I don’t want us to free up!

For the first time, Ding Hui was a little uncertain about the future situation. With such disgusting enemies, Henan's geographical disadvantages were fully exposed.

...

Shao Shude received the news on the night of November 10th.

The maid Zhao grabbed the military newspaper, stepped over the skirt and small clothes scattered all over the floor, leaned gently to Shao Shude's ear, and reported the news.

Zhuge had just arrived at Longchi Palace from Lingzhou. His young body was huddled in Shao Shude's arms, his eyes flashed, and subconsciously tightened the quilt.

Shao Shude took the military newspaper and glanced at it. It turned out to be Zhao Shu.

This woman has become increasingly slimmer in the past two years. She is leaning over there, her chest is clear and white.

Zhao Jian's granddaughter and Zhao Ye's daughter, her identity made Shao Shude think of the battle situation in Sichuan.

After Ximen Wentong received the imperial decree and was promoted to the governor of Xichuan, Jiannan, the progress was smooth. He had already captured Chengdu and captured Chen Jingxuan.

At the same time, Zhu Mei completely digested the contradiction between Dongchuan and Suizhou towns and Ximen Wentong, who owned Xichuan and Qiongnan towns, became increasingly obvious.

Between them, there were small warlords such as Zhao Jian, Mancun, and Li Jing, who now have to make a choice.

Sichuan, the final annexation war is about to usher in.

"Zhao Kuanglin, Wang Yu fought well." Shao Shude smiled after reading it.

Zhao Shu still leaned over there, as if she couldn't hear Shao Shude's words clearly after standing upright.

"Crisis, there is opportunity in crisis, and danger in opportunity. This killing field is really terrifying." Shao Shude carried Zhao Shu to bed, pulled away the things that were in trouble on her chest, and played with it casually while thinking.

Zhuge closed his eyes and buried his face in the quilt.

Zhu Quanzhong should still have a lot of troops, and his father-in-law is under great pressure.

If an army of 100,000 scale is over, Tang and Deng will turn to the defensive completely, which will be very dangerous at that time.

I still have to give Zhu Quanzhong another chance in the north!

It has been nearly a month since Gao Renhou's army attacked Qiziling, with many casualties, but he has never been able to break through.

Perhaps it's time to change directions, such as sending a side-level teacher along the way, Xiang Yi's brother, walked to Zelu, left Baixing, attacked Huai, and Meng.

Or, just play bigger and invite your brother to go south together and attack Heyang.

Luo Hongxin raided Shi Yan and killed more than 2,000 cavalry in Hedong. Will this revenge be abolished?

Can you bear such a slap in the face?

As long as the righteous brother starts, even if he doesn't attack Heyang and attack Wei Bo, Zhu Quanzhong will be rescued. Wouldn't this reduce the pressure on the southern line?

Shao Shude became more and more excited the more he thought about it. He gently stroked Zhuge's face with his right hand and pressed her head.

Zhuge looked at Shao Shude with a begging mercy, and tears rolled in his eyes.

Shao Shude added force to his hands, and Zhuge disappeared into the bed.

A large army attacked the Jishi Fort, a large army attacked Qiziling, and a side army left Zezhou and went south to Heyang with Li Hanzhi.

The righteous brother pulled out of Youzhou again and dispatched a large army to attack Wei Bo.

This picture is so beautiful. Shao Shude closed his eyes and kept outlining the march routes of various armies in his mind.

He sighed with satisfaction, his hands getting stronger.

Tomorrow, I will send envoys to Jinyang and Youzhou.

The plan has been decided, Shao Shude is in a good mood and enjoys the two beautiful ladies with peace of mind.

On the second day, Chen Cheng and Zhao Guangfeng were found.

"Can you convince Li Keyong to pull his troops back and attack Wei Bo?" Shao Shude asked straight to the point.

Chen and Zhao looked at each other.

Chen Cheng cleared his throat and said first: "Master General, if he was humiliated by Li Keyong's temper, he would definitely send troops to conquer him. But there is no movement yet. Obviously, the situation in Youzhou is very difficult and cannot move for the time being."

"Where are you sending some troops?" Shao Shude asked.

"Maybe you can try it. If you can move, it will be of great use." Zhao Guangfeng said.

"An Jinjun has more than 10,000 troops, and Li Hanzhi has more than 10,000. If 30,000 people are drawn from Youzhou and gather a 50,000 army, although Wei Bo cannot be destroyed, it is not difficult to force Zhu Quanzhong to come and help." Shao Shude said: "Try to fight for this matter. If Brother Ruoyi is willing to attack Wei Bo and take revenge, I will send 20,000 troops to Zezhou and attack Huaizhou."

Tianzhu, Shunyi and other troops have returned to Lingxia to rest.

The two armies of Wuxing and Guzhen have already headed to Heluo, and the Zhengwei Army is also on the way to Gou County.

In addition, the Wuwei Army Lu Huaizhong's troops had passed the Pujin Pass floating bridge and entered Hezhong Prefecture.

Shao Shude calculated that the Tielin Army stayed in Jinjiang, and the troops he could use were probably the Wuwei Army and the Feilong Army's 17,000 infantry and cavalry. If this force leaves Zezhou, it may play a certain role.

He had to keep trying to fight against a giant like Zhu Quanzhong and repeatedly attacked him, making it difficult for him to resist.
