Chapter 93: Blessings and Misfortunes

The east is white, and the morning glow is pervasive.

During Ji Xuanling's morning exercise with a spear, Yan Zhengfang hurried over.

At this time, Yan Zhengfang's eyes were swollen, his eye circles were black, his gait was tired, and his black hair was slightly messy.

stepped forward, snorted, and said with a smile in his voice: "Your Majesty, the ministers counted all night, and the surprise attack on Luling has gained a lot." ”

Motioning for Yan Zhengfang to sit down, Ji Xuanling was wiping the sweat beads from his forehead with a sweat towel, and asked curiously: "Is it, tell me about it?" ”

After the maid poured the tea, Yan Zhengfang drank the cow, cleared his throat and said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Ci has worked hard in Luling for several years, and all the money and grain accumulated have fallen into the hands of the king.

Because of the sudden arrival of the Qin army, Yuan Ci and a few other people in the city escaped by luck, not to mention Yuan Ci's family members captured in this battle, but also captured Yuan Ci's staff, generals, and their families recruited by Yuan Ci for many years.

To put it bluntly, Yuan Ci's central core was completely destroyed by the Qin army. ”

"Okay, good, good, send someone to escort back to Qin!" Ji Xuanling praised repeatedly, and after adding tea to Yan Zhengfang, he thought about it.

According to Yan Zhengfang's words, Yuan Ci's central core was destroyed, similar to the enemy army entering Xianyang, robbing Xianyang of all the money and grain, and capturing the officials of Jiuqing.

Even though the Longdong Tiger is there, he has lost money and food.

Born in troubled times, most of the people who joined the army were trying to survive, if Yuan Ci could not raise money and food in time, he would abandon him if he mutinied.

The money and food raised by luck, all the central officials were captured, the strategists were lost, and the unscrupulous generals were lost.

Within a year, Yuan Cixiu wanted to turn over.

coincided with King Yong, Zhang Tang, Kong Sheng, Huang Fuxiong, and Ram Yue sending troops to attack, which made Yuan Ci's situation even worse, and there was no respite.

In the next year and a half, the Qin army will not have to worry about the threat from the Tiger Army.

Taking advantage of this free time, we can deal with Qin's internal affairs as soon as possible, cultivate fertile land, encourage agriculture, expand commerce, and train and strengthen the army.

While pondering, Yan Zhengfang asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, how to deal with Luling City?" ”

Luling City?

This city is an important town in Longdi, similar to the capital city in Longdong, the city is wide, the city is high and the wall is thick, nearly 100,000 people live, the business is developed, comparable to Xianyang City!

Occupy Luling, controllable Longzhou, through the Quartet.

Ran Yongwang, Zhang Tang, Kong Sheng and other generals in the south to fight Yuan, Ram Yue sent troops to take revenge on the Western Front, and Luling City was easy to become a place of four wars.

If the Qin army controls it, it will inevitably become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of all parties.

After considering the pros and cons, Ji Xuanling said categorically: "Withdraw, evacuate as planned." The three families attacked Yuan, and the Qin army had already taken Penang, and if they occupied Anzhou again, it would be commendable to ensure that the two places were not lost. Greed is not too much to chew, it must be stopped in moderation. ”

If the Qin army coveted Longzhou, Yongwang, Zhang Tang, Kong Sheng, Huangfuxiong, Ram Yue and other forces, they were dissatisfied, and put the Qin State in danger.

What's more, the 80,000 Chu army broke into Penang, wanting to replace the Qin army's control and remove Yuan Ci's hidden danger, it was imperative to expel him as soon as possible to ensure the Qin army's absolute control over Penang.

"The king knows how to advance and retreat, and knows how to make trade-offs, it couldn't be better!" Yan Zhengfang praised with a smile and suggested: "Since the king has decided to evacuate Luling City, the minister suggests that when he goes north, he will order Zhong Kang and Zhong Tai to lead the army to sweep the entire territory of Anzhou and push the territory of Qin into Anzhou!" ”

"So it was!"

Ji Xuanling bowed his head, said that, leaned sideways close to Yan Zhengfang, and asked slightly embarrassedly: "Zhengfang, what's going on with Zhao Huanxi?"

Yan Zhengfang heard the sound and guessed the king's deep meaning, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a lewd but not polite smile: "Your Majesty, the third princess is titled Anle, and she is the sister of the emperor and King Yong." When the minister was in Longdong, the emperor wanted to win over Zhang Tang, Kong Sheng, Huang Fuxiong, Yuan Ci and others, and ordered them to recruit Dong Chang and Qing Jun, and the special envoy led the princess to lobby with him.

Unexpectedly, the envoy worked hard day and night, and after successfully lobbying Zhang Tang and the others, Princess An Le came to lobby before the violent death of Longdong who came, but instead of succeeding, she was detained by Yuan Ci.

Yuan Zhang peeked at the princess's beauty and wanted to blackmail the princess into marrying him in exchange for Longdong sending troops.

In order to ensure the emperor's safety, he deigned to accept Yuan Zhang's suggestion, but also demanded that the emperor must be rescued, and after obtaining the emperor's approval, the Ming media is marrying.

Yuan Ci, Yuan Zhang's father and son were ambitious, wanted to control the emperor, dominate the court, and replace Dakang, so they agreed to the princess's suggestion.

Recently, they conspired to welcome the Son of Heaven to Longdong after Zhang Tang, Kong Sheng, and Huang Fuxiong defeated Dong Chang.

Unexpectedly, the third general was defeated by Lu Boning, and Yuan Ci temporarily changed his mind, so it caused today's predicament. ”

"I see!" Ji Xuanling suddenly realized that Zhao Huanxi turned out to be a heroine, and he underestimated the other party.

At this time, Yan Zhengfang looked up at each other, for fear that Ji Xuanling would be addicted to beauty, and reminded in a low voice: "Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and color is a sharp knife that scrapes bones. ”

"Which is more important, this king is clear!" The Qin State is strong, there are only three thousand harems, the Qin State has fallen, he will survive for a long time, and the truth that the skin will not be attached to the hair, doesn't he understand. patted Yan Zhengfang on the shoulder and said, "Zhengfang, you go and think about it for a long time, pack up the money and food at noon, and evacuate with the army." ”

Noon.

Under the leadership of Ji Xuanling, the Qin army escorted money and grain, captured them, and withdrew from Luling in an orderly manner and marched towards Yujiang City.

During the march, Ji Xuanling was happy.

During the trip to Luling, he captured more than 100,000 gold, hundreds of truckloads of grain, captured Yuan Ci's staff and family members, and captured more than 2,000 tigers in the battle.

The casualties of the Qin army were almost negligible compared to the huge profits.

In addition to rejoicing, he remained vigilant and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

The Chu army appeared in Penang, and Yuan Ci returned to Luling sooner or later, and it was not easy to occupy Anzhou and expel the Chu army within a few days.

It is necessary to seize the opportunity, control Anzhou, recruit elite soldiers, consolidate national strength, and prepare for the retaliation of Yuan Ci's army in the coming day.

Two days later, the army converged with Di Zhongkang and Di Zhongtai in Anzhou, and Ji Xuanling instructed the second general to lead the army to conquer Anzhou, and he could expand the army by himself in the battle, and he led the army to continue to transfer to Yujiang City.

wants to meet the Chu army, solve the danger of Sanjiang City and Yicheng.

In a hurry, Ji Xuanling recruited generals and ministers, and said with a stern expression: "The scout is coming, the commander of the Chu army is named Jing Hongyang, who came to the Chu royal family, this person is a fierce general who can fight well, judging from the news from Wei Che in Sanjiang City, after Jing Hongyang led the army to arrive, he sent the army to attack non-stop, and the pressure on the Qin army in Sanjiang City was very great!" ”

"Wang, the deputy general who walked with Jing Hongyang, Han Daochang, is a famous general of Chu State, stationed in the west of Chu State all the year round, beware of the invasion of Longdong Huben, he is more ferocious than Jing Hongyang, in the end of the general, General Huo led 20,000 Qin troops, with the broken city wall of Yicheng, the situation is more dangerous, Yicheng is lost, Xianyang is in danger."
