Chapter 110 I Don't Understand (Continued)
"The prisoners are a little dishonest, and I'm afraid they will start to get ready in a few days."
"The Stone Guards are very tenacious and have no intention of surrendering."
"The enemy troops in Guangling are preparing for war, and the navy stationed in Jingkou is on full alert and has no time to take care of it."
"Our army lacks military strength. If we continue like this, we can't withstand the enemy's counterattack."
In Taicheng Palace, the commander Wang Xun listened to the generals' reports and frowned at the map in front of him. Although the Zhou army had controlled Taicheng and blocked Chen Jun's counterattack, the situation was not optimistic.
In short, it is because of insufficient troops and cannot take advantage of the victory to achieve a decisive victory. Otherwise, the remaining Chen army had surrendered at this time and Jiankang really changed hands.
Now, our side has only controlled Taicheng and Longzhoushan area in the north of Jiankang City, barely controlling the Zhuquehang area in the south of Jiankang City, while most areas in the east of Jiankang City and west of the city are still under the control of Chen Jun.
The main force of the Chen army in Jiankang was originally concentrated in the east and northeast of the city. The war did not suffer much loss that night. Now the troops have a clear advantage. If this continues, the Zhou army will not be able to stop it sooner or later.
Wang knew that once he responded improperly, the situation would take a sharp turn for the worse.
This is reality, he was not overwhelmed by victory.
His own side's strong attack on Jiankang caught Chen off guard, but as time goes by, the other side will sooner or later react. As long as the connection between Taicheng and Jingkou is cut off, they can gradually gain the upper hand and defeat them one by one.
The best way to deal with it is to stop when it is good, that is, withdraw troops immediately, and retreat eastward through Jingkou with prisoners and property, but this is not the result that the king wants, nor is it the result that King Bi wants.
Wang Xu wanted to avenge his father, but Chen Baxian lived without his children and grandchildren. Today, the Chen royal family is all descendants of Chen Baxian's brothers, so it is boring to kill him.
It’s not good to imitate Wu Zixu for coffin and whip the corpse, but it’s not enough.
What Wang wanted was the destruction of Chen State and the country established by Chen Baxian to ashes. This was the best way to avenge.
Therefore, he had to stay in Jiankang no matter what, and hold on until the reinforcements arrived.
This is the result required by King Bin, so when the plan was drawn up, the king knew that his task was very heavy.
It is very difficult to attack Jiankang with this little force, but there is a certainty; it is necessary to defend Jiankang (Taicheng) with this little force, and when the reinforcements arrive, it is so difficult that it is almost impossible to complete.
Wang Jun's troops went deeper and even divided troops to defend Jingkou. Although they controlled Taicheng, they did not have enough troops to control Jiankang.
Not to mention that Jiankang is the capital of Chen State, so the Zhou army could not get the support of the people in the city, and could not mobilize manpower to participate in the defense of Taicheng. They even had to divide their troops to capture the young and strong men to repair the Taicheng walls.
It is impossible to stop the Chen army's counterattack, but also to detain the prisoners and intimidate the people in the city. Relying on the soldiers at hand, it is simply impossible to do.
The backbone of the soldiers brought by Wang Jun was the official army, and most of them were mobs. With the courage to fight, the stimulation of the successful attack on Taicheng, these recruited outlaws could be excited for a few days, but over time, people would inevitably be filled with their hearts.
At that time, these people will think of getting away, and will not think of guarding Taicheng with the government troops to wait for reinforcements.
But since he has come, he is certainly prepared. Faced with the current crisis, his solution was planned by King Bin.
While thinking, soldiers came to report that the navy stationed in Jingkou had already discovered that a fleet of ships arrived in Guangling, Jiangbei, and various signs showed that it was very likely that Emperor Chen, who fled through Shitouzhu, and his party arrived in Guangling.
The night before yesterday, the emperor of Chen, who left the palace and fled to Shitouzhu, was chased by Wang Fang and his troops halfway. In panic, he was like a frightened bird. After entering Shitouzhu, he took a boat off the shore without hesitation and ran away after dawn.
The opponent did not go upstream, but went downstream Guangling, which was expected by Wang Navy, but this meant that the Jingkou Zhou army naval division was under great pressure. He could not divide his troops to reinforce friendly forces occupying Taicheng.
Looking at the map, Wang Jun was still frowning. Now that he wanted to resolve the crisis, he could only look forward to what King Bin said to see if he could achieve the expected results and resolve the current crisis.
Although King Bin was full of confidence, Wang Wang always felt that this "smart plan" was unreliable. She couldn't understand why King Bin came up with such a crazy plan.
......
Zhuque Hangnan, Changganli, and Zhuque Imperial Road at the intersection. At this time, a high platform had been built, and a large number of people living in Changganli gathered on the edge of Taiwan, with three layers inside and three layers outside, bustling and bustling.
On the imperial road, many men in civilians held weapons to form walls on the left and right, and separated a passage among the crowd. One end of the passage was a yard and the other end was a high platform.
On the stage, Wu Dou stood still and shouted loudly to the onlookers:
"I, Wu Dou, have a life of cursed Wu, should have died a few years ago. I am still alive now. You can't figure it out, and I can't figure it out!"
"No matter whether you scold me or praise me, I will stand here today and say a few words to everyone. If you want to listen, listen. If you don't want to listen, just watch the fun!"
"First, I voted for the Zhou army! I voted for the Zhou army with my companions!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the onlookers were in an uproar. Although they saw the "old acquaintance" Wu Dou wearing Zhou army uniforms, they probably understood a little, but this person publicly admitted in public that he was really shameless.
He actually led the Northern Territories to attack Jiankang, harming neighbors and shameless people!
Many people thought of this and looked at Wu Dou with contempt. This man participated in the mutiny of Jiankang South Camp a few years ago and led everyone to kill dog officials, and also transported food and cloth to poor families. At that time, everyone said that Wu Dou was righteous.
However, not long after, the official army quelled the military chaos, Wu Dou and others were defeated and fled out of the city. It is said that they were involved with two ruthless thieves, and there was no news since then.
The northern barbarians attacked Jiankang the night before yesterday, and the people in the city were frightened and many people were sleepless all night. When it was dawn, some people learned that the northern barbarians attacked Taicheng, and the government did not know where to end.
This news struck everyone and became scared. Many people still remembered the Hou Jing Rebellion more than 40 years ago. Now that the Beilu occupied Taicheng again, it means that a great disaster is coming.
And Wu Dou is the lackey of the Beilu!
You bastard who is suffering from plague, you have no son!
"I know, you must have said that I am shameless and cursed that I had no chance to give birth to a son! But my son has been starved to death by the government!"
Wu Dou continued to shout, full of energy: "So what? I deserve to be scolded. I couldn't survive back then, so I took everyone to kill the dog official. The dog official was not killed completely, so I couldn't stand it and ran away. I implicated everyone and deserve to be scolded!"
"But now, I'm back, not asking everyone to follow me to do something, but to let everyone see how I want to give you an explanation!"
Speaking of this, Wu Dou shouted: "Bring people up!"
Several people walked out of the courtyard and led a middle-aged man to the high platform. The people on both sides of the wall rushed forward to see who was sacred Wu Dou who was suffering from plague shouting "bring it up".
The man's hands were tied up, his hair was disheveled, and his head was lowered, so others could not see his appearance clearly.
When the man was taken to the high platform, Wu Dou grabbed his hair and made him raise his head, more and more people saw it clearly, and then the crowd became excited and shouted more and more:
Chapter completed!
