Mu Guiying's thoughts were racing, and suddenly a look of surprise bloomed on her pretty face, and she said in surprise: "Could it be that His Majesty sent the commander to spread rumors in the dragon weaving and separated Hong Xiuquan and Wei Xiao, so that they killed each other?" ”

She finally guessed the potter's intentions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The potter smiled silently, acquiescing to her guess.

"Before, we stormed Bushan, how many soldiers died, and how much effort it took to kill Wei Xiao's two thieves, now Your Majesty lightly took the lives of the two thieves, and destroyed 20,000 enemy troops, which is really ......"

Mu Guiying was amazed, and her eyes were full of deep respect when she looked at the potter.

Of course, the potter didn't care about it, and said with a smile: "This is also thanks to Liu Banxian, if it weren't for his clever plan, how could I let the thieves take the Great Wall so easily." ”

After saying that, the pottery merchant stood up violently, waved his hands and shouted: "Mu Guiying listens to the order." ”

"The minister is here." Mu Guiying hurriedly bowed his hand.

The potter's murderous eagle eyes shot to the south, and he said sharply: "Spread my will to the generals, telling them to immediately lead the whole army to pull out the camp and go south, and follow my troops to surround the dragon formation, and completely destroy the Taiping traitors." ”

Mu Guiying immediately retreated, and conveyed the news of Tianjing's cause to the holy decree of the pottery merchants' march.

For a while, the officers and soldiers of the three armies were excited, everyone applauded the cannibalism of the traitors, and the fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Great Wei Dynasty suddenly boiled.

On the same day, the potters raised an army of 100,000 and set off again, heading south.

Two days later, the army of Great Wei arrived at Tianjing City, and under the command of the pottery merchants, they quickly completed the siege of Tianjing City.

In the middle of winter, Hong Xiuquan and his remaining 30,000 troops were surrounded in Tianjing City.

Although the two kings of Xiao Wei were killed, and although the 20,000 Taiping troops died in the Tianjing Incident, Hong Xiuquan scraped together 30,000 soldiers and horses.

These 30,000 soldiers and horses are Hong Xiuquan's descendant Holy Guards, most of them are veterans of Taiping Dao, all of them are Hong Xiuquan's fanatical loyalists, and their combat effectiveness is far better than that of the ordinary Taiping army, so although the number is small, the combat power is extremely strong.

And Li Xiucheng's ability to command troops, although not as good as Yang Xiuqing and Shi Dakai, is actually better than Wei Changhui and Xiao Chaogui.

In this situation where there were no generals available, Hong Xiuquan also had to give Li Xiucheng great trust and delegate most of the military power to him.

Li Xiucheng then relied on his own ability to reduce as much as possible the adverse effects of the army after the Tianjing Incident in a short period of time, and re-completed the new city defense deployment.

Due to Li Xiucheng's efforts, the fanatical tenacity of the 30,000 Taiping army, coupled with the extraordinary solidity of Tianjing City, made Li Xiucheng stubbornly withstand the Wei army's siege in the first month, round after round of fierce offensives.

During that month's offensive, the potters used five Dragonrage-level city-breaking hammers, nearly a thousand Heavenly Thunder Cannons, and countless strong bows and crossbows, firing a total of hundreds of thousands of stone projectiles and countless arrows at Tianjing City.

Under this powerful attack, as far as the eye can see, the entire surrounding city of Tianjing was bombarded to the ground, and the surface buildings were almost razed to the ground, full of devastation and miserable.

It was under such an attack that Li Xiucheng miraculously held on!

The potter had to admit that Li Xiucheng was indeed worthy of being the first general in the late Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and he really had two brushes, which was impressive.

When the strong attack could not be carried out, the potters had to use Liu Ji's strategy and decided to abandon the war of attrition in vain and change to a long-term siege war.

Because soon after the pottery merchant besieged the city, Shi Qian spied out a fatal weakness of Hong Xiuquan:

Food shortage.

In fact, since Hong Xiuquan was defeated in Linxiang and withdrew to Jiaozhou, he has been troubled by the difficulty of food shortage.

Because he lost the opportunity to feed the war by war, Hong Xiuquan could not meet the supply of grain and grass through looting, so he could only turn to collect grain from Jiaozhou itself.

However, the destructive policies of the Taiping Army had caused great damage to Jiaozhou's economy, and even with Feng Yunshan's unremitting efforts, it had only restored less than one-tenth of its original economic level.

Previously, Hong Xiuquan was able to supplement some grain and grass from overseas in Nanyang through the overseas trade of Panyu Port, but with the loss of Panyu, this only supplement was also cut off.

Later, as the Wei army marched westward, Hong Xiuquan lost more than half of his territory, and the supply environment of grain and grass became even worse when the land was drastically reduced.

And Hong Xiuquan himself is a luxurious lord, and in the unfavorable situation of the war on the front line, he still does not forget to expand the Heavenly King's Mansion, and does not forget to continue to fill the number of his harem, which alone consumes almost one-third of the money and food of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Therefore, when the Wei army was killed under Tianjing City, the grain stored in the treasury of Tianjing City was actually pitiful, and at most it could support his army for less than three months.

Since this is the case, the pottery merchant decided to show enough patience to besiege Tianjing City without attacking, and trapped Hong Xiuquan and his remnants alive in the city, trapped until he ran out of food and grass, and was defeated without a fight.

Although the situation in Qingzhou is unfavorable, Sun Ce's landing army has captured half of Donglai County, and the troops are already advancing towards Beihai State, but the pottery merchants still have enough confidence in Wu Zixu and Lu Xun, and believe that with them, they will be able to find a way to contain Sun Ce's offensive, and it should be no problem to hold out for three months.

So what the potters have to do next is to besiege but not attack, sit and wait for Hong Xiu to run out of food, and collapse without a fight.

It's the day, the Emperor's Tent.

In the big tent, the aroma of wine is overflowing, the potters set up the wine meeting, and the ministers of civil and military affairs discuss the high theory, talk and laugh, and the atmosphere is very pleasant.

Just as the potter raised a glass of wine and brought it to his mouth, Zhang Yi had a solemn face and hurried in.

"Your Majesty, something happened in Qingzhou." Zhang Yi's tone was also the same solemn, and he held a piece of silk information in both hands.

As soon as he heard the word "Qingzhou", the potter's figure was slightly stunned, and he had vaguely guessed seven or eight points.

He was not moved, drank the wine in the cup unhurriedly, and then brushed his hand and said: "The sky can't fall, don't be nervous, read it." ”

In the big tent, all the generals quieted down, and looked at Zhang Yi curiously, all speculating whether it was the Japanese army led by Sun Ce who captured that city again.

Zhang Yi took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice: "Under the report, Wu Zixu urgently reported that not long ago, Song Jiang, the county lieutenant of Gai County, Taishan County, killed his county order, gathered a group of thieves to raise troops to rebel, and called himself the King of Taishan. ”

"This thief then served Sun Ce as the main leader, led the Taishan army east into Langxi, unexpectedly burned a large number of grain and grass of our army, General Wu's grain road was cut off, and was forced to withdraw most of the soldiers and horses from Beihai State, Zhou Yu took advantage of the situation to march into the army, captured almost all the counties of Beihai State, only Zhang Xun led 3,000 soldiers and horses, and defended the county of Zhisuo, which has now been besieged by the Japanese army."

"Because of Song Jiang's sudden rebellion, General Wu's deployment against the enemy was completely disrupted, and the situation in Qingzhou took a sharp turn for the worse, and he had to send people to His Majesty with Pegasus."

Song Jiang rebelled, Qingzhou was in an emergency!

Zhang Yi's intelligence report revealed that there was an uproar in the imperial tent, and it exploded in an instant.

The big guy originally thought that although Sun Ce's army landed in Qingzhou, it was just a small fight on the Donglai Peninsula, and Wu Zixu was there, which was enough to control Sun Ce's invasion in the Beihai area.

No one expected that such a thing as Song Jiang would suddenly appear in the flat land, and he would dare to call himself the King of Mount Tai, and he was very appealing, and the situation in Qingzhou suddenly took a 180-degree turn!

If the Beihai Kingdom is lost, Sun Ce's army can drive westward and approach the Yellow River, and then continue to advance westward along the Yellow River, and then it will be able to enter the hinterland of Yanzhou and stir up Henan, and if it crosses the Yellow River in the north, it can enter Jizhou in one fell swoop and shake Hebei.

The Lianghe Prefectures are the core of the Great Wei State, and once they are lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Moreover, if Liu Bei took the opportunity to send troops south from Youzhou at this time, then the hundreds of thousands of troops deployed by Great Wei on the northern Hebei front would face the threat of being attacked by Sun Ce and Liu Bei from the north and south.

The situation is such that the generals can not be shocked.

"Grandma's, this Song Jiang is a birdman who burst out of a crack in a stone, how can he have such great ability!?" Wei Chigong was shocked and angry, and scolded wow.

The ministers in the tent were also surprised, and there were many discussions for a while, even intelligence experts like Zhang Yi and Su Qin didn't know anything about Song Jiang's origin.

"After so many years, I finally couldn't prevent you, Song Jiang, you can hide deep enough......" A sneer rose at the corner of the potter's mouth.

In fact, since Song Jiang was summoned back then, the pottery merchants have always been wary of this guy, and have repeatedly told the assassins of Qingxu to investigate whether there is a person named Song Jiang under his rule, so as to find him out in advance.

It's just that after so many years, the magistrates of Qingxu have never reported such a person as Song Jiang, and the pottery merchants have gradually begun to forget about this person.

He didn't expect that this Song Jiang was so deep that he finally jumped out.

Moreover, he was much bolder than in history, and he even dared to call himself the King of Taishan

"Song Jiang has become self-reliant, and according to the rules of the system, it should be right to break out five of his old diehards." The potter suddenly thought of this verse again.

At this time, the prompt sound of the system elf happened to sound in my mind.

"Tick...... The system scanned that the host had learned that Song Jiang had established himself as king, and according to the principle of system balance, the system would randomly summon five diehards of the old department for Song Jiang. ”

"First place, Hua Rong, commander 78, force 91, resourcefulness 70, politics 68; Talent, sharpshooter. ”

"Second place, Li Kui, commander 61, armed force 87, resourcefulness 51, politics 40."

"Third place, Lin Chong, commander 80, force 98, resourcefulness 68, politics 65."

"Fourth, Dai Zong, commander 60, armed force 68, resourcefulness 71, politics 52; Talent, God. ”

"Fifth place, Hu Sanniang, commander 74, armed force 85, resourcefulness 68, politics 62."

In the potter's mind, a lot of names and a lot of data immediately burst out.

He is familiar with history, and these five people can be regarded as famous figures in the Liangshan Army, and the potters know their details well.

Needless to say, Hua Rong is known as "Xiao Li Guang", the arrow is not missing, and the talent of "divine shooting" is also expected, and this person is a diehard Song Jiang.

Not to mention the black whirlwind Li Kui, that is the die-hard loyalty of Song Jiang, violent and easy to kill, there is nothing serious to do with the masters, and the record of the hand, killing pawns and small soldiers, the old and weak women and children come to have a hand, how crazy and crazy they are, also known as the "weak chicken killer".

Not to mention Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army, the force value is amazing, and Liangshan's military ranking is on par with Guan Sheng, only below Lu Junyi, who is the first.

It's a pity that although the martial arts of this Lin Jiaotou are high, he is weak, his wife was molested by the senior lieutenant and didn't dare to let go of a fart, and was also assigned to the army, and finally the daughter-in-law was forced to die, the family was ruined, and finally had no choice but to go to Liangshan.

Ironically, after the Liangshan army captured the great enemy Gao Yu alive, Lin Chongbiao couldn't kill him, and finally had to follow Song Jiang to be recruited and returned to the enemy's feet on an errand.

The fourth Dai Zong is much weaker, all the data are surprisingly low, and the comprehensive strength can be said to be the generals of Liangshan, the battle chicken among the weak chickens.

However, this Dai Zong, like Shi Qian, is a special type of talent, he has good kung fu on his legs, and his two legs are as if he is equipped with an engine, claiming to be able to travel 800 miles a day, specializing in intelligence spying and transmission, but he is also an alternative talent.

As for that Hu Sanniang, needless to say, she is the daughter of Hujiazhuang, and her force value is also a second-rate level in the Three Kingdoms era, and she is also one of the few three female generals in Liangshan.

It's a pity that this Miss Hu was unlucky, after being captured, she was given to Wang Ying, a short man, by Song Jiang, a lame matchmaker, and a flower was inserted alive on a cow dung, and in the end, she was killed in a battle with Natuo cow dung, and there was no good death.

Hu Sanniang is really a pitiful and lamentable.

"Your Majesty, no matter where the Song River is sacred, but now the war in Qingzhou has taken a turn for the worse is a foregone conclusion, fortunately, Zhang Xun has defended the drama county and delayed Sun Ce's time to enter the Central Plains, but Sun Ce's strength is far better than that of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, even Zhang Xun is afraid that he will not be able to support it for long, in this way, we can't delay it any longer, we must quickly break through the dragon weaving, destroy the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom as quickly as possible, and return to the Central Plains."

Mu Guiying's reminder sounded in his ears, interrupting the potter's thoughts.

At this time, Zhang Yi said: "It is naturally good to be able to quickly break through the dragon weaving, but the dragon weaving city is too strong, and we have not tried to attack it, according to the current situation, we can only use the means of siege, but the enemy will have to run out of food in at least two months, and it is unknown whether Zhang Xun can delay it for so long." ”

"Breaking the Dragon......"

The potter pondered for a long time, and the eagle's eyes lit up with a cold light, and said coldly: "The situation has changed like this, it seems that I have to use a killer move." ”
