Chapter 116: The Holy Arrival (Second Update!) Ask for a referral ticket! )
Hearing that the saint was coming, Wu Liang, the prefect of Yibin, led the civil and military officials out of the city to greet him.
Looking at the official who was kneeling on the ground, Zhu Youlang raised his hand and said, "Zhuqing, let's be flat." ”
"Your Majesty, please also move to the palace in the city."
Wu Liang is a handsome man in his thirties, born very elegantly.
He bowed and stretched out his arms, and his attitude was very respectful.
Zhu Youlang rode into the city on a white horse, followed by Li Dingguo.
As the war was imminent, all the soldiers needed to enter the city, and no one knew when the Qing soldiers would come to the city.
After entering Yibin City, Zhu Youlang took a rough look at the city.
Compared with Chengdu, Yibin is naturally a little small, but it is still big enough than a general city.
Such a city is more than enough for 100,000 people.
It's just that Sichuan has had frequent wars in recent years, and the population has withered very much. Yibin is no exception.
Now there are only 10,000 people left in the city, and there are 20,000 garrisons.
Coupled with the 60,000 people brought by Li Dingguo and Zhu Youlang's 10,000 tiger army, there were no more, no less, exactly 100,000 people in the city.
It's just that the military-civilian ratio has reached an exaggerated ratio of nine to one.
The palace in Wu Liang's mouth is a merchant's house.
It stands to reason that Wu Liang should give up the government as a palace. But because the mansion is in disrepair and too dilapidated, Wu Liang is really embarrassed to let the Son of Heaven live in such a dilapidated mansion.
So he found an abandoned mansion of a wealthy merchant in Yibin and ordered someone to renovate it as a palace.
Now that this rich businessman has long left Yibin, the house is indeed an ownerless house, and Wu Liang naturally renovates it as much as he wants.
Although the house looks a little dilapidated, the foundation is still there. A little refurbishment and a new look.
The house of Sanjin is not too shabby to be used for the Son of Heaven to stay.
Zhu Youlang didn't bring too many chamberlains, there were only a dozen people in total.
These are all necessary people to take care of Zhu Youlang's daily life, and they can no longer be deleted.
Zhu Youlang took a closer look at this house, there are all kinds of rockery ponds, and the corridors and water pavilions are connected.
Not to mention, businessmen really know how to enjoy.
But as soon as the war came, these merchants were so frightened that they ran away, and naturally the house could not be taken away.
Therefore, the country's peace is fundamental, otherwise everything is duckweed.
After a long journey, Zhu Youlang was also a little tired, so he took a nap for an hour.
After waking up, the chamberlain Han Miao came to report that the King of Jin and the prefect of Yibin Wu Liang asked to see him.
Zhu Youlang hurriedly announced.
Fang didn't have a chance, but now that he has time, he has to ask about Yibin's preparations.
However, it was said that after the inner servant was summoned, Li Dingguo and Wu Liang walked into the house one after another.
Zhu Youlang motioned for the two to give them a seat.
Li Dingguo was fine, Wu Liang was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
Zhu Youlang saw that he looked restless, and said with a smile: "Wu Qing, what's wrong?" But what's uncomfortable? ”
"Minister... The minister didn't, the minister was afraid..."
Seeing Wu Liang's unscrupulous look, Zhu Youlang only felt funny.
"Am I that terrible?"
"Don't dare!"
Wu Liang hurriedly said.
"Okay, since you're here, let's tell me about Yibin's preparations."
Wu Liang didn't expect the Son of Heaven to be so approachable, and he didn't have any shelf at all, so the panic in his heart faded a little.
Finally calming down, Wu Liang took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty, since the Eastern Captives entered the Kouxu Prefecture Mansion, the ministers organized the transfer of the people as soon as possible, and transferred the soldiers from the nearby forts into the city. ”
Zhu Youlang nodded when he heard this.
There are not many troops stationed in Xuzhou Prefecture, and in the face of the Qing army, it is natural that they cannot fight hard, otherwise they will not only lose their troops but also lose the city.
Wu Liang did not move the people and soldiers in a hurry, and his mind was very clear.
"How many people have joined the Koukou this time?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Dongyu claims to be an army of 150,000, but according to the sentry cavalry, it is about 100,000."
Wu Liang said unhurriedly.
100,000 people...
This time, Ao Bai and Hong Chengchou really made a bloody investment.
Naturally, 100,000 people cannot all be Manchurian Eight Banners, and there must be a lot of Han soldiers mixed with the green battalion.
It seems that Zhu Youlang's due diligence this time is the right choice for the main force.
If there were fewer people coming, they might not be able to withstand the three-plate axe of the Qing army.
After all, this time Zhu Youlang did not have so many Prussian smoothbore guns in his hands, and the shells had already been used up when defending Kunming and fighting Chongqing.
The situation of flintlock pistols was similar, although Francisco copied some, but it was about a hundred shots, which was not enough for a fit.
In other words, the Ming army has no advantage in firearms in this battle, and must rely on hard power to defend Yibin!
This war is a matter of life and death, and there is no room for error!
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know whether to say it or not."
Li Dingguo suddenly spoke, Zhu Youlang nodded and said, "King Jin, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
"The minister thinks that this battle may be able to set up an ambush to lure the enemy and annihilate his elite."
Li Dingguo is worthy of being an unborn fierce general, and he is not satisfied with holding Yibin, but wants to take this opportunity to swallow the elite of the Qing army in one bite.
What a big appetite!
But I have to say that it is very difficult for the Ming army to swallow the elephant to destroy the Qing army, and it must eat away at the strength of the Qing army little by little in this way.
There have been a few major battles like this, even with the Qing army's explosive ability, it has no skills.
And once the suppression of the Manchurian Eight Banners is lost, the green battalions everywhere will definitely not be as peaceful as they are now.
At that time, maybe it will be everywhere anyway, and the situation of Daming will be reversed overnight!
"Does King Jin have a detailed plan?"
Zhu Youlang became more and more interested.
"Your Majesty, look, this is Yibin City."
Li Dingguo walked in front of the map and circled the position in Yibin.
"If Donglu wants to attack Yibin, he must go here."
Li Dingguo paused, and then said loudly: "This river is the only way for them to pass, if we ambush our troops here, we will definitely be able to win a great victory when they cross halfway." ”
Zhu Youlang nodded.
Li Dingguo's military sense of smell is indeed very sensitive, and he has grasped such a small point.
"If King Jin wants to ambush his troops, who is the right person?"
Zhu Youlang and said.
"Ai Chengye!"
Li Dingguo said without hesitation.
Ai Chengye is the son of Ainengqi, and after Ainengqi's death, Ai Chengye inherited his father's title and led the soldiers.
It's just that Ai Chengye doesn't seem to have left any records in history, so that Zhu Youlang doesn't have a deep impression of him.
It's just that since Li Dingguo is so strongly recommended, it seems that Ai Chengye still has three axes.
Zhu Youlang also wanted to take this opportunity to inspect Ai Chengye, so he nodded and said: "In this case, I will allocate a partial division and hand it over to Ai Chengye to ambush the Dongyu." ”
