Chapter 598: Lobbyist
At dawn, the sun gradually emerges from the eastern horizon and reflects the earth.
Yin County Water Village.
When Yuan Xu and Yu An arrived here, they were left with only a water-village barracks with thousands of warehouses and holes, and a lot of corpses, the blood of the rivers had been diluted, and the port where the warships were originally moored was empty.
"Striking the West?"
Yuan Xu's face was very ugly, gloomy as water: "It turns out that their target is our water village, and I was fooled!" ”
The war in the county town looks fierce.
But when he ordered the Shuizhai soldiers to go ashore to reinforce the reinforcements had not yet rushed to the county seat, the attacking enemy troops withdrew, menacing, castration in a hurry, which made Yuan Xu a little confused, when the news of the outbreak of the big war in Shuizhai came back, he suddenly woke up.
But it's too late.
They used four or five county towns southwest of Nanyang, plus the support of Xinye and other places, to build this naval army, which lost more than one-third, lost all the warships, and was beaten back to its original shape almost overnight.
"Who is the enemy?" Yu An is in his early forties, a veteran of the battlefield, and he became a captain step by step with his military exploits, and he looked at the corpses in this place, and his heart was dripping blood.
You must know that the training of naval officers and soldiers is not easy, and they can be used as long as they have weapons, but the most basic thing for a naval soldier is to be familiar with the water, as well as to control the warship, and to know how to fight between the warships.
This is a technical class.
Yuan's army is hundreds of thousands, but the combined naval army of Nanyang and Runan is only one or two thousand.
And warships.
It takes dozens of craftsmen to be busy for more than a month to build a shipwreck, and it takes more technical shipbuilders to build a fighting ship, which is a talent that Yuan Jun lacks now.
These are things he can't afford to lose.
Without the warship, are the soldiers under his command still the soldiers of the navy, they were originally the generals who were ready to make a name for themselves as the sailors of Yin County, but now the navy of Yin County has become a joke, and it is impossible to regain combat effectiveness without a year and a half.
"It can't be the Jingzhou Army!" Yuan Xu glanced at it and said in a low voice.
Before, he also thought it was the Jingzhou Army, but now that he thinks about it, it feels wrong, if it is the Jingzhou Army, they will not fight and run, the Jingzhou Army goes north, it is a peep into Nanyang, and when it reaches this point, it will definitely swallow Yin County in one bite.
"They seem to have come down from upstream!" Yu An is a naval general, he is familiar with water warfare, just by looking at the battlefield, he can know what is happening: "Although you ordered to summon my soldiers and horses back to the county seat, the military order left a guard, but we have always been on guard against the Jingzhou naval army, and if the Jingzhou naval army wants to go north, it must be killed from the downstream, but now it ......"
"Herdsman!"
Yuan Xu clenched his fists and said, "Except for them, there is no one else!" ”
"How is that possible?" Yu An frowned: "I haven't heard that the herdsmen have sailors and warships!" ”
"If you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean that you haven't, the head of the family said that although Mu Longtu is young, the city is so deep, even the former Mu Xiangguo can't compare, he is the most terrible enemy of our Yuan clan!" Yuan Xu said coldly: "Hanzhong is not without rivers, as long as you are willing to pay, it is not a problem to build a warship and train a naval army!" ”
"Then ...... they go south?"
"Naturally, it's for Shandu and Zhuyang!" Yuan Xu's analysis became more and more refined: "We all guessed wrong, thinking that the pastoral army didn't care about the two cities of Shandu and Zhuyang, but in fact, they went south at any cost, and even did not hesitate to fight with the Jingzhou army, but also to keep these two counties, we blocked the river, the original intention was to block the Jingzhou army going north, but inadvertently blocked their footsteps to the south, so there was this battle!" ”
"It's just that they're too ruthless!"
Yuan Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Not only did he defeat our soldiers, but he also took away all our warships!" ”
"Do you want to chase?"
Yu An thought for a while and said in a low voice: "They shouldn't have gone far now!" ”
"Forget it!"
Yuan Xu calmed down: "We don't have a warship, it's useless to catch up, besides...... In terms of troops, we are far from enough, they attack the county town on the one hand, and attack the water village on the other, and the number of troops is at least twice that of us! ”
"Is that all!" Yu An was unwilling.
"I'll report this matter to Nanyang first!"
Yuan Xu said: "Brother Yu, please integrate your troops, send scouts separately, and keep an eye on the situation in Shandu!" ”
The corners of his mouth outlined a sneer: "Since the pastoral army is willing to fight, it is not necessarily a bad thing, if the Jingzhou army and the pastoral army can fight to the death, for us, it may still be a good thing, if the pastoral army is defeated, we will withdraw the troops and return, then we will block the road and intercept, just beat the water dogs, if the pastoral army wins, in fact, it is not bad for us, at least we can keep Yin County!" ”
"Hmm!"
Yu An's eyes lit up, and he nodded suddenly.
……………………
……
Leaving the Shuizhai battlefield, the soldiers of the fifth battalion of the Jingping Second Army gathered their warships and went down the river for twenty miles.
Midday.
Their warship was anchored in a reedy swing for a rest.
"Lord, there is news from the Shuofang battalion, last night's battle, one hundred and twenty soldiers were killed and wounded, and the rest of the soldiers are now gathered in the western suburbs of Zhuyang, and they are resting, and they can go south to Shandu County at any time!"
On the deck, Jing Wusi's entourage reported the news to Mu Jing.
"Send a message to Niu Gai, ordering them to break into pieces, try to avoid ears and eyes, and arrive at the outskirts of Shandu County before tomorrow morning, find a place to camp, and not expose their whereabouts!" Mu Jing said.
"No!"
Jing Wusi's little flag went to give the order.
"The lord is worried about Shandu?" Zhang Liao had just finished the meeting with the military marquis of the fifth battalion, after all, there were so many more warships, they could give full play to their strength, and the previous warships really couldn't give full play to the combat effectiveness of the fifth battalion, after the meeting, he walked out of the deck and looked at Mu Jing looking ahead, with a sad face.
"If I could, I really hope that the mountains can be on my side, without geographical advantages, we will be several times more difficult!"
Mu Jing's deep voice responded: "Last night's water battle, you also experienced it personally, victory is victory, but how many deficiencies there are, you and I know in our hearts, I don't blame you, you are a foot general, it is impossible to change in a moment, you can only take your time, but in the face of the Yinxian Navy with no experience in water warfare, we are all so embarrassed, if you really face the Nanyang Navy Army, do you still have the confidence to win?" “
"This ......"
Zhang Liao really didn't dare to say such a big thing.
"Chen Ya!" Mu Jing spit out a name from his mouth: "I hope your choice will not disappoint me!" ”
………………
……
Shandu County.
County office.
Chen Ya knelt on the bamboo mat, his body was straight, his eyes were hunting, staring at the middle-aged scribe in front of him, and after half a sound, he said gloomily: "Brother Gongyi, what do you mean by this?" “
"Chen County Order, there is no coercion, I just hope that Chen County Order can make a decision not to let the people of Shandu suffer!"
The middle-aged scribe's surname is Fu, his name is Xun, his name is Gongyi, he is engaged in the Jingzhou Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, and he is one of the strategists under Liu Biao.
He came to the mountains to say that he had come down.
He and Chen Ya are classmates, they studied together in Guanzhong back then, and they worshiped under the name of a great Confucian in Guanzhong, and they have been classmates for several years, which is quite hypocritical.
"The Jingzhou army is now on the outskirts of Chen Bing County, it is nothing more than trying to force me to surrender, is it that if I don't surrender to your Jingzhou, your army will be ready to break through my Shandu county and slaughter the people of my Shandu!"
Chen Ya's cold voice carried a touch of slaughter.
The Chen family covers the sky in Shandu with one hand, and there are 800 county soldiers in Shandu County, and the Chen family can also gather the big families in the city and gather 3,000 young people, forcing him, he can also defend the county seat and fight to the death.
"Chen County Order, Xun thinks that you are a person who understands current affairs, do you think that Shandu is a county, and you can stop me from the general trend of Jingzhou?"
Fu Xun said calmly.
"Brother Gongyi, don't forget, Minghou will not ignore our Shandu and Zhuyang!" Chen Ya said gloomily: "The elite of the pastoral army, the princes of Kwantung can't stop it, can you Jingzhou army stop it?" ”
"Haha!"
Fu Xun laughed: "Mulongtu, national thief, how can he be, living in the Marquis of Ming, the so-called elite of the pastoral army, can still fight in the north, but it can be placed in Jingzhou, it is difficult to move an inch, this Shandu County is staggered by waterways, even if the herdsmen go south, can they still fight with our Jingzhou soldiers here?" ”
When Chen Ya heard this, his face suddenly became a little gloomy.
The herdsmen do crisscross the Central Plains, but the terrain here in the mountain capital is relatively speaking, there are too many rivers, the big rivers are crossed, there are tributaries around the staggered, and the warships are invincible, I am afraid that even if the herdsmen go south, they are not the opponents of the Jingzhou army.
"Chen County Order, even for the sake of the people of Shandu, you don't have to make mistakes, the people of Shandu will suffer heavy casualties in a big war!" Fu Xun saw Chen Ya's hesitation, and he hurriedly added a fire: "And before I came, Jingzhou Liu Envoy Jun had already given a promise, as long as you are willing to open the city and surrender, you will still be the county commander of this mountain capital in the future!" ”
"Give me time, I need to discuss it with the major families in Shandu!"
Chen Ya took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The mountains are not my own!" ”
"Yes, but not too much time!"
Fu Xun said: "I can only buy you one day, General Deng Long is not a calm person, after a day, if you don't open the city, he will lead the army to attack!" ”
