Chapter 454: One Retreat and One Advance (4)
"Wu Jungou just sent someone to bring news that the Han State won another battle in Bingzhou and took Shangdang County. Not to mention that the annexation of the Jin State was basically lost, Youzhou and Pingzhou both expressed their submission to the Han State. The Jin Kingdom was already in danger. Therefore, Wu Jungou gave us a death order, requiring that by April 10, we must break through to the boundaries of Jianning County. ”
The weather in the third lunar month was already warm, but bonfires were still lit in the humble houses of the commanders of the Huiji army: not for warmth, but for dampness.
It's just a pity that the firewood here is not completely dry, which causes smoke to billowing in the house at this time, which is seriously uncomfortable.
Even so, Liuping, Liuxian and the others who were summoned in were still willing to endure the smoke and roast, and they were very comfortable to feel the pleasure brought by the rapid dryness of their bodies.
The people in this room, led by General Zuo Liuping, can be regarded as the commander of this army. Next is Wuling County's Taishou Zhong Limu. This person is of noble character, very good in ability, and very tolerant. But because of his background, he also became the target of hacking this time.
Then there is the Huya general He Qian, who is the descendant of the Marquis of Shanyin.
Then down are the descendants of the four surnames of Huiji: Kong Tian of the Kong family, Wei Shu of the Wei family, and Xie Jun of the Xie family. These people, the family's assets are much more than the previous ones, but their official positions are much lower than the previous ones - starting from Sun Quan, the Sun family's royal family has really played a lot of tricks in order to weaken the family's control over the country and the locality.
The interior of the Huiji family is, of course, full of all kinds of contradictions. But now that the Emperor of the Sun family has made it clear that he is going to use a knife against everyone, everyone is rarely united at this time.
As soon as Liuping, the leader, said Lu Kang's order, and all the people below jumped up.
"Such a road! How could we enter Jianning County in ten days? ”
"Hey! You're still thinking about marching? Are you stupid? Most of the sons and daughters of our army are sick now, how can they move? ”
"That's right, now the morale of the sons and daughters is low, and there are many complaints. Fortunately, these are all our private soldiers, if they were soldiers of the state, they would have rebelled and killed us! ”
"Don't say the word country! This country is called Wu State, and it is clearly the country of Wu County Dog. The land where we are located used to be called Yueguo! In this Wu country, they are all angry! ”
"General Zuo, don't you want to explain the tragic situation we have here to that Wu Jungou?"
"Everybody be still...... Be quiet...... Quiet! ”
The noisy venue made Liuping, who was already under a lot of pressure, slap the table: "Gentlemen, everyone pushes me as the commander, don't I know how to fight for a way to survive for this army?" But look at what Lu Youjie's Wujun dog told us? From 10 April, if our troops failed to enter Jianning County, the supply of grain and grass was stopped. Ladies and gentlemen, everyone has personally experienced the situation in this county. If there is no food supply in the rear, if we 30,000 people get food on the spot, we won't be able to support it for long! ”
"What General Zuo said is very true." Wuling Taishou Zhong Limu stood up and said: "For more than two months, I won't talk about the sick soldiers. Those who are not sick go all day long to plague the women of the nearby barbarian villages in the name of chopping wood and hunting. As a result, the natives here are constantly harassing us all the time. In the past two months, everyone said that our army has lost at least 500 people due to the attacks of the natives alone! ”
"Zhongli Taishou's words are not right. Such a hard march, if you don't indulge your sons a little, I'm afraid it won't provoke a mutiny! Besides, what combat power do these barbarians have? Their assault was nothing compared to the damn damage. The subordinate is in charge of the camp affairs, and I will also inform you here. As of yesterday, more than 4,000 people in the whole army had fallen ill and could not get out of bed! As for those who have a constant cough and fever that may collapse at any time, there are even more! ”
"Okay, okay, don't make any noise. Listen to what Ben will say. ”
"I'll wait for General Zuo's instructions."
There's no way, no one in such a room has experience in commanding an army except for Liuping. Therefore, at this time, everyone has to count on Liuping to come up with ideas.
"Why did you come here, what the emperor of Jianye and Wu Jungou who is now in Wuyang have in their hearts, everyone actually knows it.
So what is the idea of Wu Jungou? With the in-depth penetration of the army, the reaction of the Han State was provoked. As a result, the Han State dispatched troops from Yong'an, Fuling, and Nanzhong to encircle and suppress me. As a result, his 120,000 army of Lu Youjie can sneak attack wherever there is emptiness according to the mobilization of the Han State...... As for us, it's best to die clean. If the whole army is not annihilated, hehe, do you think that our 30,000 people will be able to defeat the Han country? When the time comes, we will not be able to please us if we are defeated.
So in the past three months, Ben Jiang, as the commander of this army, has been reprimanded by Lu Youjie's Wu Jungou almost every day. But Ben Jiang still didn't force his way into the army under pressure, because he didn't want Wu Jungou's calculation to succeed.
But now it's different. The Jin Kingdom was defeated, and the danger was only in the moment. So the Wu County dog was also anxious and directly threatened to cut off our military rations. We can't help but move. ”
"General Zuo's analysis is reasonable. However, how can our army move in this current situation? It's just moved, and it really arrived in Jianning County, not to mention the regular army of the Han State, even the private soldiers of the Meng and Li clans are enough for us. ”
"Well." Liuping stood up, looked at the crowd below, and stared at the door again. His two sons, Liuxian and Liuxian, suddenly understood, and went directly out of the venue to the door to be sentinels.
"The war situation between Bingzhou and Youzhou, my country still needs to be reported by the Jin State, so the news of getting the war report is not as fast as the Han side. Some time ago, Ma Yima, the governor of the southern and central capital of the Han Kingdom, sent a letter to the general. ”
"Huh?!" As soon as Liuping's words came out, everyone in the venue got up together: "General Zuo, you don't want to surrender, do you?" ”
"Silence!" Liuping pressed his hands and unconsciously lowered his voice and said, "Our family members and manors are all in Huiji. Surrender here, I'm afraid that the emperor of Jianye will be overjoyed! We certainly can't surrender now, here. ”
"What does General Zuo mean?"
"In Ma Dudu's letter, one is to inform me of the war report of the Han and Jin dynasties in Youzhou. Well, in the end, the victorious side is much more detailed than the Jin State's cover-up. On the other hand, Ma Dudu also said that in view of the successive defeats of the Jin State, he would definitely urge the Wu State to accelerate its advance. Therefore, it is conceivable that we will be under a lot of pressure. Madudu's opinion was that we could march into the county of Jianning. As long as we enter the garrison at the position he designated in Jianning County, he promises not to attack us with the main force. ”
"Oh~~~" Most of these people present may not be able to fight. But when it comes to these things, it's a family talent.
"Good, General Zuo's strategy is excellent. Let's go to the garrison of Jianning County. ”
"That is, the people of Nanzhong have lived here for a long time, and they must have dealt with the diseases here, and when they go to Jianning, they can also ask the Han State to send a military doctor to diagnose and treat our sons."
"Yes, we went there, and the two sides could make an appointment to engage in regular skirmishes. Well, isn't this called meeting friends with arms? ”
"Hahahaha~~ Dashan, in this way, the army of the Han Kingdom will not be transferred out of the fortress, I want to see how the Wujun dog ends!"
