Chapter eighty-fifth mystery
Fanyang, in the Chu army camp outside the city, the newly arrived team took a break here, and then continued to advance northward to Jicheng, Youzhou Prefecture.
There, the Chu army had been besieging the city for more than ten days, and the defenders were isolated and helpless, but they still did not surrender.
The soldiers who had traveled a long distance were very puzzled, and some people wondered: "They all have no reinforcements, what are they going to do?"
The receptionist shrugged: "The government army has told them that most areas of Hebei have been controlled by the government army, but they do not believe it."
"Then we are not here in vain." The soldiers laughed. They were soldiers from Henan and rushed to Youzhou thousands of miles to take down Jicheng.
Jicheng is the northern gateway of Hebei. As long as the official army takes Jicheng, the gate of Hebei will be completely closed. Then, all parts of Hebei will be like dogs locked in the yard and will never be able to make a fuss again.
"Close the door all? Not necessarily." The military officer smiled, "The official army of Juyongguan in Juyongxing has not yet been taken down. Dai and Shuo's Qi army will go to Juyongxing and pass Juyongguan and enter Hebei."
"At that time, even if the official army has Jicheng, the Qi army enters Hebei, and they can go straight south regardless of Jicheng..." After he said that, he pointed to the city next to him:
"You can attack here first. Fanyang and Fanyang are southwest of Jicheng, and you can cut off the grain road in Jicheng. Therefore, you can help prevent Yang and attack Jicheng in front of you to rest assured."
"Ah? Didn't we go to Jicheng?" The soldiers were a little disappointed. They came to Youzhou from thousands of miles away. If they just guarded the city, it would be too boring.
"You will know the order you just arrived soon." After the military officer said that, he was busy with other things. The soldiers carried their luggage to their respective barracks while discussing.
If you don’t attack, it will be difficult to make contributions, and you cannot make contributions. Not to mention dividing the land, women will not get any points.
When it comes to women, the soldiers talk a lot, talking about the news they heard:
"Have you heard that? They turned the Fanyang territory inside and out. All the disobedient and powerful households were confiscated from their hometowns. Many maids and maids were gathered together to be rewarded to the meritorious soldiers!"
"Oh, where did Guangshoucheng get the credit? No matter how many women there are, it has nothing to do with us!"
"By the way, the wealthy and powerful households in Fanyang seem to be very famous, and they seem to have their surnames... By the way, the surname is Lu, the Fanyang Lu family, it is said to be a first-class family!"
"The noble family? Now it's a family of dead families and mourning! The government army is not used to them, so they confiscated the manor, and collected all the grain, cloth, money and grain for military purposes to reward the soldiers."
"The same is true for maids and maids. Now, Fan Yang is the master of the imperial court. All the noble families must be honest."
"Oh, the government army broke the Lu family's manor, how can people deal with it?"
"Didn't you say it? The maid and the maid were gathered up and waiting to be rewarded to the meritorious soldiers."
"I'm asking those whose surname is Lu, how to deal with it."
"I heard that those who dare to resist will lose their lives. Those who surrender will gather together and escort them to Yecheng. In the future, if they are not honest, they may have to send them to Lingbiao to eat lychees."
"Wow, Lingbiao is a place of smoky mischief. Who has the chance to eat lychees... I said, lychees are really delicious?"
"I don't know, I haven't eaten it before. I won't go to Lingbiao anyway..."
Amid the sensation, the soldiers settled down one after another, and the young and strong who were helping work in the barracks listened to these Henan accents, just like a person who heard a sheep shout, and he couldn't quite understand it.
However, the anger towards the Chu army was already burning in the hearts of some people.
Zhang Ping is one of them.
His surname is Zhang, but he is not a child of the Zhang family in Fanyang. He has been a member of the Lu family in Fanyang for many years. However, as the Chu army captured a large number of manors in Fanyang area, Zhang Ping's family was also affected.
Many of his relatives died in the war, all thanks to the Chu army. Therefore, the children of the Lu family in Fanyang wanted to take revenge, and he also wanted to take revenge.
However, the Chu army was in great power and the government troops retreated. Only when reinforcements arrived would they have the opportunity to take revenge.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ping subconsciously looked in a certain direction.
Lu Langjun said that the Jinyang official army was about to launch an assault on the Chu army with a strange plan, and then...
By then, everyone will take revenge and revenge!!
......
In the southern suburbs of Jicheng, the Chu army camp, and the marching governor Wang Lin took the map to sort out the news brought back by the scouts.
The defenders of Jicheng have never surrendered, but Wang Lin is not in a hurry to attack the city. The reason for this is that it is not that he cannot conquer it, but that his primary goal is not the city, but the army, so he wants to "fish".
The official army swept over Hebei, and now it is impossible to completely solve the problem by just taking over the northern portal - Jicheng, because the Qi army in Hedong area can send a large number of cavalry to the "North Road".
That is, if you enter northern Hebei through Juyongxing, if you blindly "block the door", it will be a passive defense and very passive.
After all, until now, the Qi army in Hedong has not seen any movement. They neither followed the Fukou Pass to attack Yecheng nor walked into the southwestern Hebei region.
Therefore, the other party is most likely to have a "strange plan".
Then, the Chu army would rather siege Jicheng than attack, so that Qi would think Jicheng was still saved, so he sent a large army to Juyongxing.
As long as this army is annihilated, Qi State will not be able to launch a large-scale raid again in a short period of time.
Therefore, it is boring to get involved in the gains and losses of a city and a place. First, you have to annihilate the opponent's field legion, and then attack the city and plunder the land, which is naturally much easier.
This is the conclusion drawn by the emperor and the generals after discussing it, but whether Wang Lin needs to be implemented or not is decided on the spot.
Wang Lin also wanted to fish and "fish" the main force sent by the Qi army in Hedong to rescue Hebei. Now it is summer, and he has enough time to implement this tactic.
However, Juyongguan has "cannot be captured for a long time", and the Qi army is likely to be suspicious. The last attack launched by the opponent may not have completed the entire journey of Juyongxing.
There is actually another route that suddenly appears outside Jicheng.
That is, among the mountains northeast of Jicheng, Lulongsai, whom Emperor Wu of Wei walked by when he attacked Wuhuan in the past.
Walking northeast from Lulongsai is the Yingzhou area of Qi State, which is the southeastern edge of the grassland. Not only is the Qi army stationed, but there are also a large number of Khitan, Kumoxi and Mohe tribes.
These tribes were beaten to obey during the several previous sieges by the Qi army, and were very likely to be summoned by the border guards of Qi and headed south in large numbers.
Therefore, Wang Lin judged that a large number of enemy troops were likely to appear in Lu Longsai, including not only the Qi army, but also the Khitan, Kumoxi, and Moshi soldiers gathered together by the Qi army.
If that's the case...
Wang Lin only felt that she was fighting spirit.
Emperor Wu of Wei personally conquered Wuhuan, fought against Bailang Mountain, and defeated Tadun Shanyu, and defeated the Wuhuan army. On the way, he was heading to Jieshi in the east and wrote a group of poems based on the old title of Yuefu "Step Out of Xiamen".
The first poem is Wang Lin quite fascinated by his poem:
Surround Jieshi in the east to see the vast ocean.
How calm the water is, the mountains and islands are standing tall.
There are forests and lush grasses.
The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are surging.
If the journey of the sun and the moon comes out of it;
The stars are brilliant, as if they are out of the corner.
Fortunately, I sing to express my aspirations.
Wang Lin never thought before that she would lead her troops to fight in the north.
I never thought that I had the opportunity to fight with Hu Bing in this Youyan land: Khitan, Kumoxi, and Mart. This twisting name makes people feel motivated to hear it.
If possible, first annihilate the Qi army that rescued Jicheng, and then wait until the time is right...
Out of Lulong Pass, rush to Yingzhou Prefecture to govern Huanglong, defeat the Hu coalition forces, stabilize the northeastern border in the Central Plains and protect the safety of Hebei. How can such a battle not make people excited?
Thinking of this, Wang Lin got up and walked back and forth in the tent, calming down as she walked.
Calculate the time, it is time for the enemy to appear, and the other party should come, but it may not appear where he hopes according to his judgment.
The direction of Juyongguan and Lu Longsai are the key points he should beware of, but unexpected situations must also be taken into account...
When fishing, don’t be treated as fish by others.
Before Wang Lin came to the case again, picked up the map of Youyan area and began to think about it carefully.
