Chapter 495 The choice of tactics
The hearse and his party arrived in Lin'an. Fan Sheng saw the opposite scene from Hangzhou. Thousands of people welcomed Qian Li's hearse. The crying sounded far away, and he was truly sad.
Fan Sheng sneered in his heart when he saw it. Qian Liu was born in Lin'an. Lin'an received Qian Liu's care, and he was absolutely light in taxes and taxes, and even received Qian Liu's back to build.
Some of the people in Hangzhou's folk paste have given preferential treatment to Lin'an. How can Lin'an people who have benefited from it not be sad and have no protection in the future - the umbrella, and the hard days are coming.
Looking at Lin'an County from afar, Fan Sheng sighed again that the Lin'an city gate is tall and beautiful, and the two-story flying city tower is much better than the outer city of Hangzhou.
The construction of the outer city of Hangzhou is not long before, and there is still a lot to be improved.
Fan Sheng kept staring at Mrs. Wu. He asked his subordinates to search and interrogate any of his wife who had seen her. As a result, he found three letters written with Wu's seal.
Fan Sheng was furious. The tiger did not show his power to treat me as a kitten. He falsely accused the three of them and said that Wu was still young and bewitched his wife and remarried. He insulted the previous king during the mourning period and ordered people to be beaten to death.
Fan Sheng's military dominance shocked Lin'an people who participated in the funeral and were silent, and the number of people willing to contact Wu's family was sharply reduced.
Qian Liu's family tasted what the world is like.
Qian Liu was buried successfully. Fan Sheng forced Wu to hand over the seal, leaving Qian Chuanji to keep mourning. The others returned to Hangzhou City and were banned in the inner city.
Fan Sheng handed over the letter from Wu to Li, and Yu He. After the three of them discussed it, they allowed Qian Liu's concubine to return to her parents' home and marry him.
Qian Li's illegitimate sons all received a sum of money and allowed to go to the outer city to buy a family business. Underage can continue to live in the inner city, and adults must leave the inner city.
Qian Liu's daughters also received a dowry and married into the inner city after they became adults.
Mrs. Wu's "benevolence" made the inner city clear away the haze. The concubine who had a son took her young son to the outer city to buy a family business, and then returned to the inner city to continue to eat and live for free.
The "release of the ban" in the inner city calmed the doubts and worries of the people in Hangzhou. Many families who planned to leave Hangzhou City to avoid wars have canceled their trips, and those who left have returned one after another.
Shichengshan's military situation returned to Hangzhou, and Gu Quanwu led a large army to break through Shichengshan and fought to Yuezhou City.
When Gu Quanwu learned that Qian Liu was dead, it is still unknown whether he would follow the order of the new king's army to continue the war.
......
Princess Jinling and her party arrived in Wu County, Suzhou. Wei Fufeng learned in Wu County that Changzhou was captured by the Shangyuan Mansion's troops.
Wei Fufeng originally planned to take the risk to meet the governor of Suzhou.
Princess Jinling dissuaded: "If the governor of Suzhou does not have the intention to rebel, he will definitely comply with the Hangzhou military orders, and there is no need for the husband to take risks in person."
Wei Fufeng nodded with a smile. He dared to meet the governor of Suzhou because he felt that the risk was not high.
Wei Fufeng went ashore and entered the city, finding the shop where Jinse and Xiangnu temporarily lived. The two girls were surprised and followed Wei Fufeng out of the city and met Princess Jinling.
......
The next day, he set off and headed north to Changzhou. In the afternoon, a messenger took the Hangzhou military order to go to Suzhou Prefecture.
Suzhou Governor Cao Guiquan opened the military order and saw: "The Huainan army betrayed the faith and assassinated the prince, and ordered Suzhou Governor Cao Guiquan to send 20,000 troops to block the Changzhou soldiers attacking Huzhou."
Cao Guiquan thought about it, and after a moment, he asked the messenger: "Who gave you this military order?"
The messenger replied: "March Sima Dusu."
Cao Guiquan asked again: "The situation in Hangzhou
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
how?"
The messenger replied: "When I left in a low voice, everything was normal, and the inner city was busy with funerals."
Cao Guiquan nodded and said, "Go to rest."
When the messenger left, Cao Guiquan ordered his confidant to kill the messenger. He regarded it as if he had not received the military order and waited and watched without moving, and asked people to go to Hangzhou to inquire again.
......
Princess Jinling and her party successfully passed the border checkpoint and entered the boundary of Wuxi County in Changzhou.
The Huainan army was still stationed in Wuxi County. The five hundred troops passed by claimed that they were heading to Yangzhou. The Huainan army in Wuxi County was not hostile, but they were not allowed to enter the city.
The fleet was mooring the wharf overnight. The next day at dawn, the man in Wei Fufeng who stayed in Wu County caught up and reported that the messenger entered the prefecture yard and never came out again.
Wei Fufeng was surprised. He thought that he ordered Cao Guiquan to send troops, but Cao Guiquan could not ask for it because he could control the military power and establish merits when leading the army to the expedition.
Wei Fufeng was afraid that thanks to not seeing Cao Guiquan, of course he was different from the messenger. He took the guards to see him because he was not very likely to silence Cao Guiquan, but he was not very likely to be killed.
After Wei Fufeng thought about it, he wrote many military orders to his subordinates, asking his subordinates to return to Wuxian. If he had not seen his companions, he would go to Hangzhou and hand them over to Yuhe immediately.
My subordinates received the order to return to Wuxian, but did not see their companions, so they set off to continue to Hangzhou.
Yu He received Wei Fufeng's military order and sent it out. The military order was established in Xiuzhou. Sima Du Xun served as the governor of Xiuzhou. Several military orders were sent to Suzhou, reaching 30,000 garrison commanders.
The new county prince ordered 20,000 troops to set up the station in Jiaxing County and belonged to the control of Du Shin, the governor of Xiuzhou.
Du Xi took office, and 20,000 Suzhou troops were also expelled by orders.
Suzhou Governor Cao Guiquan regretted not falling and understood that he had done irreversible stupid things.
Cao Guiquan's reasons for disobeying the military order were complicated. The main reason was that he was afraid of being lured away from the mountain. Once he led his troops to leave Suzhou, Hangzhou would replace him with another governor.
The secondary reason is to focus on the changes in Hangzhou and send troops to Hangzhou at any time.
Cao Guiquan was Qian Liu's confidant and was not close to Qian Liu's sons. He also suspected that Qian Chuanying killed his father and usurped the throne. He was very dissatisfied and expected someone to stand up, so he responded.
Cao Guiquan thought that Qian Chuanying did not dare to target him, and he did not dare to mobilize Suzhou troops to Hangzhou in the near future. Unexpectedly, Xiuzhou was established and the marching Sima Du Xiong was appointed as the governor.
Cao Guiquan only controlled 30,000 troops, but could not do anything outside. The king had no choice but to accept the orders. He could not openly rebel against Qian. He could only let 20,000 troops break away from his control.
The establishment of Xiuzhou divided half of Suzhou territory and transferred 20,000 troops. Cao Guiquan suddenly lost more than half of his strength. The worst thing was that he offended the new prince.
......
Princess Jinling and her party arrived at Jinling County, Changzhou. Wei Fufeng's subordinates of the southern Sichuan Army contacted Gao Yan, who occupied Changzhou. Wei Fufeng secretly entered the county town and met Gao Yan.
When Gao Yan saw Wei Fufeng, he said happily: "It's good that sir, I'm here. My subordinates are worried about how to end. Feng Hongduo's grandson actually refused to send troops to take over Changzhou."
Wei Fufeng nodded. The follow-up was indeed very difficult. Feng Hongduo did not send troops, and Cao Guiquan from Suzhou did not send troops. Gao Yan became an isolated army. He said he was going to Huzhou, but now Huzhou cannot be left.
Gao Yan said again: "My subordinates made decisions without authorization and asked people whether Du Hong would like to cooperate."
Wei Fufeng said: "Du Hongshui Army cannot pass Runzhou, don't worry, Hangzhou
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The state has our 10,000 troops. I will transfer 5,000 troops from Fujian in the future and transport 10,000 troops by sea."
"Sir, have you formed an alliance with Qian Liu?" Gao Yan said in surprise.
Wei Fufeng smiled and shook his head, telling the story of guiding Hangzhou.
Gao Yan bowed and smiled bitterly, saying, "Sir, I can't accept it."
Wei Fufeng smiled and said: "It's just an opportunistic trick. It takes a long time to truly occupy Suzhou, Hangzhou."
Gao Yan nodded and said, "Since the lord can control the Hangzhou army, his subordinates have no enemy and are not isolated and helpless. His subordinates have the confidence to defend Changzhou."
Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "Changzhou is very important and has become a problem behind the Huainan Army."
Gao Yan nodded and said, "My dear Lord said that Hangzhou sent troops to Huzhou. My subordinates suggested whether we can have a siege."
Wei Fufeng was surprised and understood the calculations and weighed the matters. Gao Yan's intention was to mobilize all the troops in Shangyuan Prefecture.
Gao Yan led his army to take the initiative to siege Li Yu, the Huainan Army who was retreating.
Wei Fufeng's idea was to defend Jinling County, seek stability in the city, and to make a nail-like tactic.
Gao Yan's active attack may have caught him off guard, but it is a very risky one. After all, the Huainan army is good at fighting, and the Hangzhou army in Huzhou may not pursue it.
"Gao Yan, if the Hangzhou army in Huzhou does not pursue us, we will not have an advantage." Wei Fufeng disagreed.
"Sir, Li Yu retreated in a hurry. We have the opportunity to catch him off guard and take the initiative to strengthen the morale of the army. If Li Yu's army is at the city and meets the reinforcements from Huainan from the north, our army's morale will inevitably be sluggish." Gao Yan argued with reason.
Wei Fufeng thought about it and suddenly laughed: "The ones who take the initiative will defeat each one and boost the morale of the army. I will let you have a bet. At worst, you will lose Changzhou."
Gao Yan was happy, and then he talked about where to ambush, and he was actually confident in Changzhou.
Wei Fufeng returned to the fleet and used the seal of Princess Jinling's Shangyuan Mansion to issue a military order to mobilize the imperial court's troops, and also wrote a letter to Lin Qingxue.
Wei Fufeng planned to lose the bet this time, and the remaining troops of Shangyuan Prefecture could only run to Huzhou and pretend to surrender to the Hangzhou army.
After Wei Fufeng thought about it, he sent a letter to Zhao Kuangming and sent it to him, trying to convince Zhao Kuangming.
The scout rode his horse to the southwest and arrived in Yixing County. He found the Changzhou army and Zhao Kuangming army on the way to retreat, and approached Yingpan for a visit.
Zhao Kuangming opened the letter and watched: "Brother Zhao, Chu Yu greeted me. Chu Yu was granted marriage by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and was promoted to the governor of the state. Although the governor was famous but not real, he realized that the matter was done by others.
Brother Zhao went south to Jiangning, and the King of Wu intended to swallow Jiangning. If Jiangning fell into the King of Wu’s bag, would the Nanyang Basin be the next Jiangning?
Chu Yu joined forces with the troops of Shangyuan Prefecture to seize Changzhou, and then made friends with Qian Liu from Hangzhou, intending to encircle the Huainan army, and requested that Brother Zhao be defeated in war, causing the King of Wu to be unable to annex Jiangning."
Zhao Kuangming was stunned. Chu Yu actually betrayed King Yang Xingmi of Wu, with his intention to make an artificial independence.
Zhao Kuangming was caught in weighing and thinking. The 10,000 troops he led were as powerful as a mob, which was to boost the Huainan army and beat the edge drum.
Chu Yu told Li Yujun, who was besieging the retreating troops, that the consequences of his participation were that the loss of troops and generals were not profitable, but he was defeated at the last minute. Will he be killed by Chu Yu?
Zhao Kuangming thought about it, gritted his teeth and told the scout: "You go back and tell Chu Yu that I am willing to defeat and tell Chu Yu to capture me in time."
