Chapter 407: Jiangcheng is broken

The clouds have just been drenched by a rain, the sun is showing off its mighty body in the sky, the ground is dry, the air is warm, with some moist warm wind makes people feel like spring. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is good weather for an outing.

Outside the city, Zhuangzi has also regained some life, and some birds are jumping around in the trees and chirping.

The empty land makes people feel vast, and they can't wait to turn over and gallop immediately.

But there was not a single figure in the open land. There is no trace of the peasants who used to work hard in the fields to irrigate.

The streets of Yundu are no longer crowded with people, and the red silk prepared for the enthronement ceremony hangs on the buildings, but there is no joy at all.

Occasionally, a person walks by on the street, also in a hurry, and from time to time he looks left and right, as if he is afraid of something.

General's Palace.

Yuan Shanjia looked at the briefing in his hand, his brows furrowed deeply.

Two days ago, news came that Jiangcheng was broken.

And it broke ten days ago.

The army of the eastern kingdom was like a tiger, attacking Jiangcheng directly, and in less than three days, Jiangcheng was broken.

According to the news, on the one hand, it is because the strength of the Eastern Kingdom is too strong, and on the other hand, it is because of Yun Youli's retreat.

Sima Gou Yulin before Jiangcheng was Yun Youli's person, and Yun Youli had long held Jiangcheng's forces in his own hands. Otherwise, he would not have retreated in the competition with Xian Guifei.

Originally, with Jiangcheng's troops, even if they couldn't withstand the all-out attack of the Eastern Kingdom, they would not be defeated in three days.

According to the news from Qingyutang, it is obvious that Yun Youli did this on purpose.

After pretending to resist for three days, Jiangcheng's troops retreated to Jinju. When he left, he also took the people of Jiangcheng with him, and sold a good one from the people, and his reputation among the people rose again.

After Jiangcheng was defenseless, the army of the Eastern Kingdom occupied Jiangcheng in an instant, and used it as a base to attack.

And according to the route of the Eastern Army, they were not ready to fight Yun Youli head-on, but were ready to take a long detour to the north and attack Changzhi County directly.

Changzhi County is close to Yundu, and he thinks that there is a layer of defense with Yundu. But as long as Changzhi County is captured, Yundu will be at your fingertips.

Yuan Shanjia walked back and forth in the room, his face extremely solemn.

Yun Youli has already cooperated with the people of the Eastern Kingdom, which is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger. Once the Eastern Kingdom really conquers Yundu, it is equivalent to occupying the capital of Yunguo, and then Yundu is a stronghold, and if it spreads out, you can partner with Yun Youli to besiege Jiezhou, where the three princes are located.

But is Yun Youli preparing not to get it himself, but also to let others not get it? Once the army of the Eastern Kingdom occupied Jieju, Jinju was completely surrounded, and even if Yun Youli was the king, it would be useless.

But that's not what Won Sunka is worried about.

What Yuan Shanjia is worried about now is that the Red Leaf Villa is in the direction of Jiangcheng to the north, that is, near Tongtian Lake.

If the Eastern Army wants to go north, it will definitely be stationed near Lake Tongtian once to replenish the water supply. Then the possibility of discovering Momiji Mountain Resort increases.

It has been more than ten days since Jiangcheng was breached, doesn't that mean that the eastern army has already traveled most of the journey north?

No, you can't sit still. Yuan Shanjia frowned, and made a decision in his heart.

"Ran Sui, go and prepare, I want to see Lei Chen." Yuan Shanjia took a step and called Ran Sui to command.

Ran Sui's face was also a little dignified, and he hurriedly nodded in agreement.

In the past few days, Yundu has been under martial law, the news of the war has spread, and the popularity of the eldest prince's faction has been ruined, and they can't wait to drag Yun Youli over and slap him twice.

But this can only be thought about, the most important thing they need to do is to stabilize the situation, quickly form an army, and stop the eastern army.

However, because of Yun Yuqing and Yun Youli's self-establishment as kings, the strength of Yun Guo's army was divided into a large part. And there was not much left of the army in the west, and it was impossible to come to support.

That is, the only army that the great prince can control is the army of Cailinguan and Wuyunling.

But these two armies couldn't move at all.

Cailin Pass also belongs to the junction of the Eastern Kingdom and the Cloud Kingdom, and it is closer to Changzhi County and Yundu. If Cailin Pass's army is mobilized, then it will be more convenient for the army of the Eastern Kingdom to enter the Cloud Kingdom. What's more, Cailin Pass's army is equivalent to Yuan Tian's subordinates, and the Great Prince's faction is worried about which side Yuan Tian has defected to, so they don't dare to use it at all.

Wuyun Ridge is the junction of Yun and Chu, and it can't be easily moved, in case Chu suddenly wants to get a piece of the pie on a whim, then Yun Guo will fall in a large area.

As a result, the only army that the Great Prince's faction could use was the Imperial Forest Army of Yundu and the city guards of Changzhi County.

As a last resort, the people of the Great Prince's faction stepped up the recruitment of soldiers among the people.

Even if you can't find someone powerful, you have to gather enough people to be cannon fodder, adding trouble to the army of the eastern country and slowing them down.

That's why there aren't many people on the streets, not even in the farmland outside the city.

Most of the strong men were arrested and sent to serve as soldiers, and the main labor force was basically gathered on the way to Changzhi County. And it is constantly increasing the number of strong men.

Most of the men in the family were arrested, whether they were forty or fifty-year-old old men, or thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys, if it weren't for the five or six-year-old children who couldn't even hold a knife, they would also be arrested.

The people in charge of arresting the strong men were all given death orders, and if they didn't catch many people, let them go by themselves. Therefore, no one dares not to be unsatisfied. What used to be a little silver could be spent, but now there is no way. They are also afraid that they have money to earn and no money to spend.

After catching strong men for such a while, Yundu is basically a daughter country. Except for the Imperial Guards who defended the city, there were not many men.

On the empty street, the warm wind blew, and the red silk fluttered in the wind, but it seemed a little lonely. No one dared to mention the enthronement ceremony again.

"Lord." Lei Chen said respectfully.

Yuan Shanjia nodded, "The situation is critical, I won't say much, you now immediately send a message to the previous Jiangcheng forces in Jinzhou, let them gather to the Red Leaf Villa, and protect the safety of the Red Leaf Villa to focus on defense." Don't stick to it when necessary, move everything to the secret room, and transfer the personnel. ”

"Yes." Lei Chen's eyes flickered.

Yuan Shanjia said: "In addition, once there is news from Donggu, it will be passed on to me immediately, and the news of Jieju and Jinju should not be neglected." ”

Lei Chen nodded.

"You brought me all the recent news about Jiezhou and Jinju, in addition to the recent news from Yundu, especially the news that the Great Prince's faction is going to do." Yuan Shanjia frowned, and the solemn look on his face was difficult to change.

Lei Chen nodded again, and went out to ask someone to send the comprehensive papers.

The comprehensive scroll soon reached Lei Chen's hand, and he held a large stack of comprehensive scrolls and handed it to Yuan Shanjia.

Suddenly, between the flints, Lei Chen's manual was made.

When Yuan Shanjia took the comprehensive volume, Lei Chen suddenly leaned forward, his face showing ruthlessness. (To be continued.) )
