Chapter 91 Reinforcement of Danhua Pass
Liu Yuanxiang was quite worried before, but a month was about to pass, and Ning Ze had no news yet.
When he heard that he had arrived at the coast, he immediately took civil and military officials out of the city to greet him.
Seeing that Ning Ze brought back several times more people than before, and the carts followed behind, Liu Yuanxiang felt confused and hurried forward.
"Lord!" Ning Ze took the lead and came to her to salute, "The subordinates fulfilled their mission, and they have sincerely submitted to the country!"
"Military advisor, this is..." Liu Yuanxiang looked at the huge army behind.
"Report to the lord!" Ning Ze took out a silk book from his arms and handed it respectfully, and replied with a smile, "Amur, the new king of Binaqiu, signed a letter of nationality with his subordinates. The lord had any command and summoned him to come to Huajun as soon as he had settled. Because the war had just ended in the country, Amur needed to consolidate his power and came to Huajun to pay homage to the lord after he was settled. In order to show his sincerity, he paid 50,000 gold, 1.5 million stone of military rations, 500 warships of all sizes, 80,000 kilograms of iron ore, countless swords, guns, swords and halberds, and sent 10,000 Binaqiu soldiers to accompany 50,000 servitude servants for the lord."
Liu Yuanxiang took the letter of nationality and was stunned and looked disbelief.
After Ning Ze went there for a month, it was unimaginable that not only allowed Binaqiu to agree to become his own vassal state, but also obtained such a huge amount of materials and manpower.
Logically speaking, it is basically impossible for Binaqiu to surrender as Princess Yuanxi, and only Huajun, to make Binaqiu Kingdom surrender. How did he do it?
Not only Liu Yuanxiang, but all the civil and military officials in Huajun behind him had the same thoughts and expressions of shock.
Although Meiren Chu was a little surprised, she took it for granted and rode forward to Ning Ze and bowed to him: "It's still a few days before January, but the military advisor has returned smoothly. The officials really admire him!"
He calls Brother Ning privately, but in public, he is more serious.
"Although Binaqiu is an overseas country, there is only one county." Ning Ze replied, "There are no famous generals in the country, so it is not difficult to win it. Now Binaqiu surrenders and promises to pay ore and armor every month, and our armours have no worries. There are Binaqiu soldiers who can be driven to fight with the princes of the world!"
"Military advisor," said Chu Meiren, "The lower officials are responsible for attacking the surrounding counties. Unexpectedly, the battlefield changes rapidly and they failed to successfully capture Dan County and Tong County. Now, the three troops of Ju County, Ba County, and Turhuhe County jointly captured Wuduo, but Yang Ran burned the military rations and had to retreat. Wuduo County. Dan County has a militia leader Wei Yi, who joined forces to repel our army with Yang Ran. The prefect of Liang could only retreat to Danhua Pass. Failure to defeat Yang Ran to capture the surrounding counties was the mistake of the lower officials..."
"This cannot be blamed on the Lord Chu," said Liu Yuanxiang. "The master's strategy is not wrong. It's just that Wei Yi will appear and lead private troops to lift the siege of Dan County. I didn't expect that Yang Ran had a wise man around him to break the coalition forces. If the Lord Chu said to follow the army to fight, he would definitely be able to see through the enemy's strategy. It's just that the Lord Chu said as a female official, he had no power to tie a chicken, and it was too dangerous to go with the army to fight, not to mention that Duke Chu would not agree."
It hasn't been seen for almost a month, and Liu Yuanxiang and Meiren Chu seem to get along well and will talk for her.
At first, she had eaten Chu Meiren Fei's jealousy.
I guess it was because of the performance of Chu Meiren during this period that she had won Liu Yuanxiang’s recognition? Her intelligence and internal affairs attributes were very high, and she would definitely help Liu Yuanxiang a lot. Although Liu Yuanxiang’s attributes were very poor, there was no problem with being able to use people. With the characteristics of benevolence, it was normal to trust and maintain Chu Meiren.
"The battlefield changes rapidly." Ning Ze smiled, "Master Chu remembers that you don't have to blame yourself! The lord doesn't have to worry. It just happened that the subordinates brought the soldiers of the Naqiu, and the soldiers of our county were 5,000, totaling 15,000. It happened that the troops led the reinforcements of the Liang prefect, helped him capture the two counties of Dantong, and took the opportunity to seize the four counties of Wuduo, Ju, Ba, and Turhe, and seize the Jinzhou as your foundation!"
"The military advisor just returned from Binaqiu Kingdom, why not go back to the city to rest for a few days?" Liu Yuanxiang was a little worried, "It just so happened that I want to know what the military advisor did in Binaqiu Kingdom this month."
"Lord, our army has received strong aid, and it is time to take this opportunity to go out!" Ning Ze said, "If Yang Ran learns, he will be prepared. If he sticks to me, he will not be of useless to stick to me! There are also three troops from Ju County, Ba County, and Turhu County who will be under the jurisdiction of the lord, he will definitely be on guard and refuse to work hard to jointly attack Yang Ran. Only by sending troops now can he take it down in one fell swoop! The opportunity must not be lost, and no more will come! When the lord obtains the other six counties of Jinzhou as the lord, he will slowly report on the affairs of the lord."
"Military advisor, the official is willing to go with you!" Meiren Chu asked for his order.
Ning Ze smiled at her and shook his head: "Master Chu, you need to stay in Hua County to assist the lord, and official duties in the city are also very important. Only when Hua County is stable can our official be at ease to conquer."
"The military advisor is right!" Liu Yuanxiang said immediately, "During this period of time, the city affairs were handed over to the Master Chu, and all arranged in an orderly manner. If the Master Chu was missing, the palace would find it inconvenient. Besides, Duke Chu would never agree."
This was from the heart, and of course there was another idea in my heart. I was not very happy to let beauty Chu follow Ning Ze on the battle. She stayed in Huajun, and she followed Military Advisor Ning everywhere. Thinking that the two of them might be together day and night, she was unwilling to do so.
When the beauty Chu heard this, she looked at Ning Ze.
Ning Ze nodded and said, "The Lord Chu will stay in the city to assist the Lord. If possible, try to convince and recruit Lord Chu."
"Even I can't convince my father!" Meiren Chu shook her head and sighed.
"Anyway, let's try it! Duke Chu can stay in Hua County for the Lord Chu, which shows that he loves his daughter. If you try it a few more times, you may be convinced?" Ning Ze smiled.
"This..." Meiren Chu lowered her head and thought for a moment, nodded and replied, "Since the military advisor said that, the officer should try his best."
"That's right!" Ning Ze smiled and turned to Liu Yuanxiang, "Lord, the lower lord will lead troops to reinforce Liang Taishou. In addition to the food and grass required for this trip, the lord sent all other materials to the official warehouse."
"It's so richer than Naqiu Kingdom, and I'm willing to take out so many supplies..." Liu Yuanxiang sighed quite emotionally.
"Because the new king Amur had to rely on our army's strength, the officials naturally took the opportunity to make more points." Ning Ze said, "and the officials decided to include Binaqiu State in the operation scope of the Chamber of Commerce and use it as the overseas base of our army. The development of Binaqiu State is the continuous source of minerals for our army."
"Did the country of Qiu really surrender to this palace?" Liu Yuanxiang was a little worried, "It would be fine if he was sincere, but he would be afraid that he would stab him in the back..."
"Love it, lord!" Ning Ze replied, "Although Binaqiu State surrendered at this moment, as long as our army quickly occupy Jinzhou and demonstrated its strength. At the same time, the Chamber of Commerce assists Binaqiu State in development and gives the other party enough benefits, so that it can be used wholeheartedly for my use!"
"Since the military advisor said that, I am relieved." Liu Yuanxiang nodded, "Safety is the most important thing in this trip, don't take risks! The loss of military rations is not important, the military advisor must return safely!"
Ning Ze felt warm: "Don't worry, lord, I'm a civil servant, and I run faster than anyone else."
Civil and military officials around: "..."
In front of their lord, they dared not say this. They are worthy of being military advisors. And when he heard that, the lord not only was not angry, but also breathed a sigh of relief.
Think about it, who can be as capable as a military advisor to consolidate Huajun for the lord, and even make Binaqiu surrender and pay such a large amount of tribute to such a large amount of materials and manpower, can receive such treatment? Who would not accept this ability?
So Ning Ze did not enter the city, but directly led the headquarters' five thousand soldiers, plus ten thousand Binaqiu soldiers, and brought ten thousand men and women to transport military rations, claiming to be a 100,000 army advancing towards Dan County.
This is called psychological tactics, deliberately exaggerating the number of troops and scaring the enemy.
The enemy's psychological quality is poor, and those in a bad situation may directly surrender or leave the city to escape. They will be afraid even if the master is not afraid, it is difficult to guarantee that their subordinates are not afraid, let alone the soldiers below and the people in the city.
As long as someone is afraid, he may cause chaos on his own, making the situation even more unfavorable.
Of course, there are also more powerful generals who see through it directly and quickly appease it can make this plan useless.
Although Liu Yuanxiang didn't expect Ning Ze to go to the battle immediately as soon as he came back, there was no other way at this moment. There were too few people under his command. If there was someone who could go to the battle on his behalf, he would definitely let Ning Ze stay in the city to rest for a few days, and by the way, he would talk to him about what happened to the country of Binaqiu during this period.
She hasn't seen her for about a month, but she has a lot to say!
Ning Ze led his troops to set off and soon arrived at Danhua Pass.
Liang Teng learned that he personally brought the generals to greet him, and his face was full of smiles: "Mr. Ning, you are back!"
In the past, he called him the Ning Xiao brother, but since he returned to Huajun and Ning Ze was appointed as the military advisor by Liu Yuanxiang, he changed his name.
"Prefect Liang!" Ning Ze stepped forward and bowed, "I heard that something happened here, and the subordinates rushed to support him without stopping. It happened to bring 10,000 soldiers from Binaqiu State. You and I will join forces together, and then go and meet Yang Ran!"
"Yang Ran has a strategist Yang Ying, who is his uncle," said Liang Teng. "This man is quite wise and designed to rob our military rations and burn the food and grass of the three counties. It is difficult to deal with! A militia leader Wei Yi appeared in Dan County. He was young and powerful, and he brought three thousand private soldiers to assist Yang Ran. At this moment, he joined forces with Yang Ran, and I couldn't fight him!"
"The prefect doesn't need to worry. The subordinates will help you break through the two counties of Dantong and take over the other four counties of Jinzhou." Ning Ze said, "Please send people to Dan County to promote it, just say that Hua County will send 100,000 troops to reinforce, and you will take over Dan County in one fell swoop."
"The military advisor asked me to notify the enemy in advance, what is this?" Liang Teng was puzzled.
"Scare them!" Ning Ze said with a smile.
"Ah?" Liang Teng was confused, "This..."
"The prefect sends people to come," Ning Ze said, "Now Yang Ran wants to defend against the three troops of Ju County, Ba County, and Turhu County, and must be on guard against our army. Suddenly, he heard that a hundred thousand troops came, and he must be worried! When the soldiers of the three counties heard the news, they would definitely be very motivated. As long as they sent people to make an appointment for our army to attack Dan County, the opponent would attack Tong County. Yang Ran would be panicked when he was attacked by the enemy from both sides. At the same time, the few soldiers in Dan County knew that they could not hold on and would definitely fight the generals. At that time, they would capture Wei Yi in front of the formation and easily enter the city!"
