Chapter 129: Surprise Attack

"What's your plan?"

Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo asked his general Zi Che Yudao in disbelief.

I saw Zi Cheyu hugging his fists and saying in a deep voice: "Childe, we all know that Wei has six permanent military town camps, which are located in the six strategic critical places of 'Nanyan', 'Chenggao', 'Dangshan', 'Suiyang', 'Fenchengsai', and 'Daliang'...... In other words, the Liang of Wei State is currently in the air defense of Beijing, or may there be an opportunity to take advantage of it? ”

"......" Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo frowned when he heard this, and asked a little unhappily: "You mean that the army attacked the beam?" ”

"Exactly." Zicheyu replied in a deep voice.

Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo glanced at Zi Cheyu in disappointment, shook his head and said: "If it is that Ji Run, after you drive your troops deep into the hinterland of Wei State, you only need to cut off your way back, so that the transportation of grain and grass in the army will not continue. …… Don't forget, Daliang is the capital of Wei after all, and the city is rich in resources, even if there is not a single soldier, as long as the people in the city are urgently recruited, you can hold on for a while, and you, how many days can you attack when the grain route is cut off? ”

His words can be regarded as a rejection of Zicheyu's suggestion.

However, Zi Cheyu did not give up, and chuckled in a low voice: "What Childe refers to is 'land route', but what the last general refers to is 'water route'. ”

"Waterways?" Yang Chengjun was stunned when he heard this, as if he remembered something.

At this time, I listened to Zi Cheyu explain in a deep voice: "The capital of Wei is a girder, and the waterways extend in all directions, with the Yellow River running through the east and west, and the Cai River in the south, and this Cai River leads directly to Yingshui...... In other words. Our army can go straight up from Yingshui upstream, and the boat passes through the Cai River to the capital of Wei. The ships of Wei are strong, not as big as me, if they are on the water, who can cut off our army's food route? ”

"......" Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo was moved when he heard this. He got up from his seat and paced back and forth in the tent, muttering the word "boat" in his mouth.

It is true that foot combat is not actually the strongest in their Chu State, and even the Chu State has almost no cavalry, but on the other hand, if it comes to boat and water warfare, their Chu State can be said to be ahead of the countries in the world, and even the combined forces of Qi and Lu do not dare to fight against the Chu army near the water.

And this time, when Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo attacked the Wei State. Because Wei did not have any naval army that could be used for fighting in rivers and lakes, and Xiong Tuo did not dare to go too deep into the hinterland of Wei in order to fight steadily, so that the naval army under his command, to be precise, should be that batch of boats and boats, all docked at the place where the three water veins of Caihe, Lishui, and Yingshui converged in one place, that is, Chen County, the "land of three rivers".

"Chen County......" Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo muttered to himself.

Once, Chen County relied on Xiangcheng because of its location. It was originally the territory of Xiangcheng Jun Xiong Ling.

At that time, Xiong Yan built a fleet in Chen County and transported a large number of supplies in Yingshui County. After Yingshui was transported to the territory of Xiong Sheng, the "Liyang Jun" he supported, this move made Xiong Tuo very unhappy.

After all, in Xiong Tuo's opinion, he and Xiang Chengjun Xiong Tong and Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu, the territory of the three of them is quite close to each other, so it stands to reason that Xiang Chengjun Xiong Ling should support him. Instead of supporting "Liyang Jun" Xiong Sheng.

I remember that at that time, Xiong Tuo was committed to winning over Xiangcheng Jun Xiong Ling, the brother of the Xiong clan, but unfortunately, the latter did not change his court and joined him Xiong Tuo's command.

See here. As Qu Cheng revealed to Zhao Hongrun, Xiong Tuo didn't do anything, bought a beautiful woman with a lot of money, and gave it to Xiong Cheng by the hand of Xiong Hu, the king of Pingyu, not only designed to kill Xiong Ling, but also tried every means to make Xiong Hu, the king of Pingyu, plot to seize Xiong Ling's territory.

Now, including Chen County, the territory of Xiong Ling, the former Xiangjun of Xiangcheng, has been annexed by Xiong Hu, the Pingyu Jun, and afterwards, Xiong Tuo built a huge dock in Chen County, where he built warships and trained sailors.

But also because of this incident, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo and "Liyang Jun" Xiong Sheng almost turned against each other, but the latter's status in the eyes of the King of Chu was obviously inferior to Xiong Tuo, which made Xiong Tuo's practice of killing his brothers of the same clan and instructing Pingyujun Xiong Hu to swallow the territory of his brothers of the same clan was criticized by the rest of the noble children of the Xiong royal family.

This gain and loss, it is really hard to say whether it is a gain or a loss: gain territory, lose people's hearts.

"Dispatch the warships of Chen County?"

Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo paced back and forth in the tent, thinking about the feasibility of Zicheyu's strategy.

It is undeniable that if the Wei soldiers of the Junshui battalion are still stationed in Daliang, then even if the warships of the Chu army are in Daliang, it will not be enough to shake Daliang.

But now, the Wei soldiers of the Junshui battalion have been out of Daliang and stationed in Yanshui, making Daliangjing air defense, and at this time ordering a warship to go upstream, from the Cai River to attack Daliang, is indeed a good way.

"But ......"

As if thinking of something, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo turned his head to Zi Cheyu and asked, "With a team of warships alone, are you sure that you can make the girder submit?" ”

Zi Cheyu shook his head when he heard this and said: "Childe, the last general didn't really plan to attack Daliang, the last general just wanted to make the King of Wei and the Wei court feel threatened......"

"Feint against suspicious soldiers?"

"Exactly!" Zi Cheyu nodded and added: "Daliang is the capital of Wei, where the King of Wei is located, and the place set up by the Wei court, just like when my Great Chu was jointly attacked by Qi, Lu, and Song...... Of course, the last general did not expect to conquer this city, the last general just hoped to force the Great Liang to ask for help. ”

Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Junshui Camp? Are you trying to force the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion to return to the defense beam? ”

"Childe is wise." Zi Cheyu praised the lord a little, and then said solemnly: "If you can force the Wei soldiers of the Junshui camp to return to defense, no matter how solid the Wei camp in the north is, it is just a virtual existence." ”

"Hmm." Yangcheng Junxiong Tuoshen nodded approvingly.

Because according to the information revealed by the defeated soldiers, the Wei army's Yanshui camp was at best only 20,000 Wei soldiers from the Junshui battalion and 10,000 Yanling soldiers, a total of 30,000 people.

In Xiong Tuo's opinion, if Zicheyu's clever plan can force the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion to return to the defense of Daliang, with only those 10,000 Yanling soldiers, why should Su Wang Jirun hold the camp to death?

When the time comes, Xiong Tuo will have a way to clean up this camp where there are only 10,000 people left.

"Good! Good! Good ......"

Just about to shout three good words in a row to express the joy in his heart, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo suddenly thought of something, frowned and said, "But ...... What if the Wei soldiers of the Junshui battalion do not return to the defense beam? ”

Hearing this, Zicheyu said with confidence: "Childe, there are only six permanent military camps in the Wei State: 'Nanyan', 'Chenggao', 'Dangshan', 'Suiyang', 'Fenchengsai', and 'Daliang', and the rest of the local Weirong are just security guards with no experience in battle. …… And among these six military camps, the Wei people in the two places of "Nanyan" and "Chenggao" will never dare to move lightly, after all, they have to watch out for Korea in the north; and the Song general Nangong, who surrendered to Wei, led the "Suiyang Army" under his command, which is currently fighting against the "Guling Jun" Xiong Wu; Counting the Wei State where the former prince sent a partial division to drag down the "Fencheng Sai" in the previous battle, and now in the Wei State, only the "Dangshan Military Camp" can be dispatched...... However, the "Dangshan Military Camp" did not necessarily dare to move lightly, and at present, the "Dangshan Military Camp" sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, always paying attention to the battle situation of Nangong's "Suiyang Army" and "Guling Jun" Xiong Wu, and was always ready to send troops to rescue, if the "Dangshan Military Camp" returned to the Liang, Wei might face the end of the entire Song Dynasty, I believe that the Wei court should understand this. ”

"That doesn't guarantee that the Wei court really ordered the Junshui Battalion to come back to Daliang, not the 'Dangshan Battalion'." Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo looked a little hesitant.

After all, if the Wei court really chose the "Dangshan Camp" to return to the camp, then the situation on his Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo's side did not necessarily improve, but instead made a wedding dress for his opponent in the political arena "Guling Jun" Xiong Wu.

Once the "Guling Jun" Xiong Wu really defeated Nangong's Suiyang army and occupied the entire territory of the Song Dynasty, so he was favored by their brother's father, the King of Chu, then he Xiong Tuo's future life would not necessarily be very good.

In other words, Zicheyu's suggestion would have been a gamble for Xiong Tuo, betting that after the attack on Daliang, the Wei court ordered the Junshui camp to come back to help, not the Dangshan camp.

"Forget it...... Even if it was the Dangshan Battalion that finally returned to the aid of Daliang, so that I made a wedding dress for that guy Xiong Wu, I can say the same in the future, and I can always get back some of my battle exploits......

After pondering for a long time, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Hu finally made up his mind: "Okay! Just as you say! …… By the way, you just said that this plan is dangerous, if it does not go well, it may kill tens of thousands of soldiers in an instant, how do you say this? ”

Hearing this, Zicheyu's face turned upright, and he said solemnly: "The last general is worried that the Wei people will set up a dam to store water in the Cai River, after all, the warships led by the last general will pass through the Cai River, if the Wei people open the dam to release water at that time, it may destroy our fleet, and the ships will be destroyed......

Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo was stunned when he heard this, and immediately laughed.

"I thought you were worried about something, but it turned out to be this."

Shaking his head, Xiong Tuo said with relief: "Now that it is winter, the water potential in various waters is not turbulent, how easy is it to build a dam to accumulate enough water?" Not to mention that the Wei people don't know about this, even if the Wei people have insight into your plan at this moment and send troops to the Cai River to build a dam and store water at this time, they will not be able to accumulate much water potential...... Rest assured! ”

"I hope so."

Zicheyu nodded and let out a long breath.

For some reason, when he proposed this obviously good plan, he always felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

That night, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo ordered people to go to Chen County and transfer military ships and warships docked in the waters near Chen County.

Two days later, the countless warships and warships went north against the Cai River and arrived at the confluence of Yanshui and Cai River.

Seeing this, Yangcheng Jun Xiong Tuo ordered his son Che Yu to lead 30,000 corporals, board those warships, and continue to go up against the Cai River, heading straight to the capital of Wei.

On that day, I saw a continuous stream of warships and warships on the Cai River, like a swimming dragon, heading straight to the north.

This scene frightened the Wei soldiers who were fetching water by the Yanshui and preparing to carry water to the camp to cook, looking at the spectacular warship team one by one, and even the bucket in their hands fell into the river unconsciously. (To be continued.) )
