Chapter 745: Soldiers approaching the city
Please remember
Cheng Qun, Lankun, Liu Hanqing and other Jinwu Guard generals stood at the high Yizhou city, watching a flag rising from the besieged army camp opposite the besieged city. It was the leader of Qianniu Guard.
The flags were all sad, and the last little hope was shattered. I originally hoped that Liu Xuyong could involve part of the Northern Army's military in Jiaozhou, but it is impossible now.
"General, Liu Xuyong surrendered." Lankun gritted his teeth and said, "Yun Zhao's main battle camp is here. The cavalry of the Mongolian generals such as Jamukha is surrounded by the cavalry of the Mongolian generals. It is impossible to attack Jiaozhou where Qianniu Guards are stationed.
city,"
"The tree falls and the money scatters!" Cheng Qun stared at the Qianniu Guard flag fluttering in the wind under the city, sighing: "The husband and wife are the same forest birds, and they fly each other when the disaster comes, not to mention that we and Qianniu Guard, Liu Xuyong
After making his choice, he naturally made sense. His Qianniu Guard did not fight back, and I am already very grateful to him."
"He dares" Liu Hanqing sneered: "Qianniu Guard and Jinwu Guard are both robes. If he dares to fight back, he will not be afraid of a mutiny from the soldiers."
Lankun shook his head and said, "Liu Xuyong has no need to attack us at all. He just needs to pull Qianniuwei to visit the city for a while, and our morale will drop by three points."
"Lankun is right!" Cheng Qun said: "Go down and tell the soldiers that Qianniu Guards will not surrender, and their entire army will be wiped out. The four guards of Dayue, leading the army, Baotao, Qianniu has been loyal to Dayue, and now we are the only one left.
The Jinwu Guard supports the overall situation alone. It declares that in order to prevent people from entering the Central Plains and not poisoning the people of our Central Plains, I, Cheng Qun, decided to leave the last drop of blood in Yizhou City."
"The last general is willing to follow the general!" Lankun and Liu Hanqing bowed together.
Cheng Qun turned around and looked south. In the distance where he could not see, the surging river flowed across the river. I hope that his sacrifice in Yizhou City could buy more time for the Central Plains to set up defenses along the Jingzhou coast. I believe that at this time, the news had already been sent back to Shangjing.
, spread throughout every corner of the Central Plains, a large number of troops were moving towards Jingzhou, Xiangzhou and other places. Every day he could hold on, he would buy more time for the Great Vietnamese army. If he didn't take himself down, Yun Zhao would have no courage.
Crossing the Cangjiang River.
"Yun Zhao is here!" Lan Kun pointed to the location of the Third Battalion of the Northern Expedition Army in the distance. There, Yun Zhao's governor's flag was slowly rising and fluttering in the wind. A shocking expedition came from the military camp.
The shouts of the Northern Army's victory and the shouts of the Third Battalion alarmed the surrounding Northern Army troops. It was like a relay. In the east, west and north directions of Yizhou City, each unit of the Northern Army besieged in the city was one after another.
The shouts started, and the sound shook the clouds and nights. In Yizhou City, the Jinwu Guards were indifferent.
Cheng Qun had a expressionless face, "Yun Zhao is here, the battle is about to begin. Tell your brothers, prepare for the battle!" He turned around suddenly and took big steps away from the city wall.
In the third battalion of the Northern Expedition Army, the Yunzhao Central Army's tent has become the command center for attacking Yizhou. The sand table placed in the middle of the tent has clearly shaped the terrain and landform around Yizhou City.
, Yao Changkun, Meng Yao, Ding Qiu, Huo Zhenting, Zhou Guangyi, Su Dingfang, Hu Zehua and other generals of the Northern Expedition Army, as well as Mongolian generals Jamukha, Bolu, Tuli, Malihan, Xiao Lixi, Xiao Licuo, all gathered here, the Mongolian people
There is no way to attack the city, and cavalry cannot be used to attack the city, so Meng General's face was relaxed, and he even held the mentality of watching the infantrymen of the North Army who were laughing at. There is no way. The two departments have just joined forces, and both sides are in contact.
It is still difficult to achieve the same goal as the same place and the mind is thinking together.
In Jamuhe's view, a strong city like Yizhou City cannot be fought. According to his idea, he went straight to Yizhou City, rushed straight to Qinzhou, crossed the river and took Jingzhou, stepped on the Central Plains, and asked Cheng Qun to guard Yi.
Let’s get rid of corruption and chaos in the city!
His idea was still wandering in his mind, and someone had already said it. Guo Changxing, who had just returned from Jiaozhou, did not return to Xingling, but stayed in the army with great enthusiasm, wanting to see the majesty of the army's war and look at it
The generals gritted their teeth and frowned, and said in confusion: "Governor, why don't we avoid Yizhou and go straight to Qinzhou, cross the river to win Jingzhou and only win the target? Why do we have to win Cheng Qun here?"
As soon as he said this, the generals of the Northern Army in the tent, including Yun Zhao, Han Zhong and others, laughed. Looking at their appearance, Jamuha also raised his ears. He also wanted to hear why Yun Zhao must have
Do this
"Mr. Guo, you don't know anything. If Yizhou is here, it will be impossible to be peaceful in the north. A small number of soldiers cannot trap Yizhou City. Bypassing Yizhou and directly attacking Jingzhou, there are many problems involved.
First of all, the navy's carrying capacity. Although our Navy's Army won the battle in succession, its strength was actually very weak. Pan Yi of Jingzhou had already banned the river, and all the ships along the coast were burned by him. We rely solely on our navy
It is difficult for those ships to transport a large number of troops and baggage in time. This is the first thing. Jingzhou is now on high alert. Xiangzhou has already passed by about 20,000 reinforcements. If we have fewer people, we may be fine.
He ate it, and for a moment, we couldn't transport a large number of troops, let alone how many troops we needed to trap Cheng Qun in Yizhou?
Yao Changkun continued: "Even if the navy can transport large quantities of troops and supplies, the large army crossed the river, and the pressure here in Cheng Qun was reduced sharply. We couldn't trap him, so he could do his best to do our long food and logistics.
All the supply lines were exposed to his attack range. With our current economic strength, we really couldn't stand the tossing, so taking down Cheng Qun first seemed to be a clumsy way, but it was a safe way.
.”
Yun Zhao stood up, looked at the generals in the tent, and said proudly: "Now our Northern Army is the best in the world, and we can no longer take risks. If we use a surprise soldier, we may win a great victory, but it also contains great defeat."
Risk, for us now, there is no need for us. What we need to do now is to take steady steps and make every step. If anyone becomes a stumbling block in front of me, then kick it away first before you can take it safely.
Take the back road locally.”
Listening to Yun Zhao's bold and arrogant words, Jamuha couldn't help but feel sad. Yes, Yun Zhao no longer needs a strange move now. He just needs to dominate others and crush everything blocking his way forward with his might.
Just obstacles. Unfortunately, Your Majesty Wuda did not understand this truth back then. At that time, the Mongol Yuan was at its peak. If Yun Zhao could follow Yun Zhao's current thinking, he would first wipe out Yun Zhao in Yizhou, and then manage the northern land well for a few years, and wait for a while.
After the festival stabilizes, crossing the river and fighting again, then the general sitting in Yun Zhao's seat is His Majesty Wuda instead of Yun Zhao. However, His Majesty Wuda was obviously very powerful back then, but he took dangerous moves and finally played with fire.
.
"But after we take down Yizhou, the troops that reinforce Jingzhou in the Central Plains will be in place, and the situation we face will not be relaxed at that time." Jamuha put forward his own opinion.
Yun Zhao looked at Jamuha and nodded slightly. He understood that the two armies had just been combined, and it would take some time to join forces. Now Jamuha can speak in the military discussion and put forward his own ideas, rather than
As before, he did not say a word and just performed military salutes, he had made a big move. It seemed that he had gradually adapted to his new identity.
"General Jamuka said it well. This is indeed a problem, but for me, Cheng Qun is the biggest threat at present, and it is also a person I have to cut off and quickly. If such a person is given space for survival, he will
Let you have trouble sleeping. As for the other troops of Dayue, except for Su Can conquer the tiger guards, the rest of the world is not in the eyes of my Northern Army. What's more, I already have an army on the south bank, and they will bring it to
We were surprised. When Cheng Qun was cut off and the Navy of the North Army opened a landing point for us on the south bank, we would cross the Cangjiang River in an orderly manner and step on the Central Plains!"
"The governor is wise!" The generals in the tent applauded.
"I am not good at attacking cities, so this battle was commanded by Lord Han Zhonghan and General Yao Changkun, so I watched from the wall. If I need to charge, I will give orders!" Yun Zhao said with a smile.
The generals in the tent burst into laughter, and Han Zhonggong bowed and said, "I really have something to worry about asking the governor to work hard!"
"Oh, what's the matter?" Yun Zhao asked with interest. The others also raised their ears and looked at Han Zhong, wanting to see what job he assigned to the governor.
"Please ride on dark clouds and snow every day, turn around the military camps, and see the injured soldiers and get off!"
A loud laughter broke out in the tent again, Yun Zhao smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's a pity that my Pojun and Yi Shuihan will see the light of day again."
Yao Changkun smiled and said, "We hope that the governor Pojun will never open the strings, and Yi Shuihan will never be out of the sheath."
"That's right!" Meng Yao, Su Dingfang, Hu Zehua, Hu Zhenting and others shouted.
"Please ask two lords to assign the task of siege!" Yun Zhao waved his hand angrily, "I'll be an idle person. When you have nothing to do, you can beat the drums for you!"
Everyone laughed and their eyes turned back to the sand table.
"Mr. Han, please!" Yao Changkun smiled and stretched out his hand.
Han Zhong nodded to Yao Changkun and walked to the sand table, "Please look, generals. The difference between Yizhou City and most cities in the north is that it has a moat that is more than ten meters wide, which is the first time we have to attack the city.
An obstacle. The first step is to remove him. These days, Lord Yao and I have traveled around Yizhou City, measured the terrain, and created this sand table. From this, you can clearly see that Yizhou City
The moat seems to be living water, but it is actually stagnant water. Its water source comes from the Gaiyi
Qinghu, which is more than ten miles from the city of Zhoucheng, was a great man in the city back then. He used the terrain to cleverly build this moat. The water of Qinghu came from the north, bypassed Yizhou City, and flowed back to Qing from the south.
An internal circulation has been formed in the lake, so the first step is to block the exit of Qinghu water. In this way, the water in this moat will be exhausted without going in a few days. Zhou Guangyi
