Chapter 222: Layout
Zhengzhou, the south of the city of Changshe, the original empty field has become a military camp that stretches for more than ten miles at this time, the military camp is north of the Changshe City, just like its southern outline, the prime minister, the king of Shu Wei Chi Dun stood in front of the commanding heights of the Chinese military tent and looked into the distance, and could not see the boundary of the military camp.
Looking around, the sight of the sea of flags did not make Wei Chi Dun have too many emotional changes, over the years he has often led troops to battle, and the strength of the army under his command ranges from tens of thousands to more than 100,000, so he will never be like a young general who is in battle for the first time, and he is very excited by the spectacular scene in front of him.
Cast his eyes on the southern sky, which is the direction of Shaoling, the county of Linying County, Yuzhou, where Wei Chidun is located at this time, only more than sixty miles away from Shaoling.
Not long ago, Pan Zihuang, the head of the march sent by Wei Chi to Yuzhou to quell the rebellion, led 20,000 soldiers and horses to be wiped out in Lekou, outside Shaoling City.
Although the area around Yuzhou is a plain area, there are many rivers, and Pan Zihuang was about to lead the troops out of Yecheng before he was about to lead the army, and Wei Chi told him to beware of being attacked by water.
Pan Zihuang was a veteran general on the battlefield, and Wei Chidun thought that it would be fine, but he was still attacked by people and wiped out the whole army.
When Wei Chi Huang received the news in Yecheng, he didn't know what to say, and he wanted to get angry but to no avail, because defeat is defeat, and according to the defeated soldiers, Pan Zihuang was surrounded by the enemy and swung his knife to kill himself instead of surrendering, Wei Chi Tang felt that the other party was a burden, so he did not embarrass his family.
Similarly, the governor of Yuzhou, who was defeated and killed, did not embarrass his family, after all, it is the time to employ people, and killing people indiscriminately to vent his anger will only greatly disappoint the hearts of the people.
In all fairness, Wei Chidun did not feel that these two defeated and killed generals were incompetent, but the opponent's ability was not bad, and many factors led to the defeat of the officers and troops in two battles in a row, and the third battle would never be defeated again!
He turned into the tent, several soldiers were cleaning up the tent Hu bed, brazier, the military discussion had just ended, the army would continue to go south in a few days, and in front of him was Shao Ling, Fang Cai Wei Chi Xuan convened the generals to discuss in order to arrange an offensive against Shao Ling.
Shaoling is the northern gateway of the hanging gourd, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Anzhou army will inevitably send troops to station, but for Wei Chidun, the more Shaoling garrison, the better, the best the other party thinks that Shaoling can become the jade city of the year, and send heavy troops to guard Shaoling in order to retreat from the enemy.
In that year, Wei Xiaokuan, the defender of the Western Wei Dynasty, fought against Gao Huan's hundreds of thousands of troops with a lonely city, held on for nearly two months, causing more than 70,000 casualties in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, and finally returned in vain, and Gao Huan also died of depression.
Therefore, Wei Chidun was wondering if his niece-in-law, Yu Wenwen, was going to defend Shaoling, let the battle of Yubi reappear, and then let him suffer heavy casualties, and sang 'Eilechuan' with tears on his face.
I'm looking forward to it, I really want to see how embarrassed you little bunny will look when you kneel in front of me!!
When his father Yu Chi Hui was alive, he once said that his grandson-in-law Yu Wenwen was "good", and Wei Chi felt that Yu Wenwen was good no matter how good he was.
And it was Yu Wenwen who almost made his previous careful planning come to naught.
Yu Wenwen, who was supposed to bask in the sun in Lingbiao Guangzhou, didn't know what was going on, but sneaked back to Shannan in time, and Wei Chidun arranged for his henchman Cui Datong and his brother-in-law Cui Hongsheng to launch a mutiny in Huankou, but they were ruined by him.
And this is just the beginning, Wei Chidun dispatched the five routes of soldiers and horses to the south to attack the five passes of Dabie Mountain, and the whole army was wiped out inexplicably, which caught people off guard, and was taken advantage of the opportunity by Yuwenwen to sneak attack the hanging gourd and succeed, causing the situation in Yuzhou to take a sharp turn for the worse.
Then he defeated He Ba Fuen and Pan Zihuang in a row, and also claimed that he had met the son of heaven in distress in the hanging gourd, and issued proclamations and letters everywhere, calling on the world's soldiers and horses to be the king, and his arrogance was very arrogant.
As a result, no one responded to King Qin.
When Wei Chidun learned of this situation, he couldn't help but increase his confidence, no one in Henan Prefecture responded to Yu Wenwen, what does this mean?
It shows that the hearts of the people are back! It shows that Yuwen's is unpopular!
This is good news, which relieved Wei Chi Dan, who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent his anger, he felt that he was not wrong to break with the Son of Heaven in advance, everyone thought that Yu Chi was strong, so not many people were willing to die with Yuwen Clan.
"So, what's the use of you fighting again?"
Wei Chidun looked at a huge map, looked at the location of the hanging gourd, sneered and muttered to himself, he didn't expect Yuwenwen to rush back at first, so he was attacked by the other party again and again, but now, he will definitely not give this little rabbit cub a chance again.
Zhengzhou Prefecture Governor's Society, more than 60 miles away from Shaoling, is more than 200 miles away from Hanging Gourd, and such a distance is within the scope of cavalry raids.
There are many cavalry in the imperial army, just relying on the rangers to attack and disturb, you can make the wind roar, if the other party still dares to divide troops to defend Shaoling in the north, Ruyang in the northeast and other places, it is looking for death.
Because the imperial army besieging Yuzhou had three routes, Wei Chidun personally commanded the first army to go south, the Bozhou army in the east of Yuzhou marched westward, and the Yangzhou army in the southeast of Yuzhou marched to Gwangju under the jurisdiction of Yuzhou.
The officers and troops attacked the Yuzhou area from the north, east, and southeast at the same time, and the poor forces of the other side could not help no matter what intrigues and tricks they had.
Whether it is a water attack or a sneak attack, it is all a mantis arm as a car, Wei Chidun looked at the map, looked at the encirclement he had carefully arranged, and did not think that his niece and son-in-law had any chance.
As for the so-called "Son of Heaven", it doesn't matter if Yuwen Qiankeng himself is not, no one is willing to raise troops to Qin Wang, which means that this person is a big loser and there is no threat at all.
After carefully reviewing his arrangement, Wei Chidun did not feel that there was any problem, and motioned to the soldiers to put away the map, and he turned out of the tent himself, and rode into the city to the palace to greet the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother.
The Son of Heaven drove to Henan, and now he is stationed in Changshe, and there is a palace in the city, which is the residence of the Son of Heaven, the Queen Mother, and the Queen of Di, while Wei Chi is sitting in the camp in the south of the city, taking charge of military affairs.
The Queen Mother and Queen Yi are his nieces, and his sister-in-law Wang is with him, so Wei Chi Dian's daily routine greetings are not pretentious, and he promised his brother Wei Chi Shun in advance to take good care of his sister-in-law, niece and nephew.
He also promised Wei Chishun before that he would leave a bloodline for the Yuwen clan in the future, that is, let Yuwen Weicheng live, even if the dynasty changes, Yuwen Weicheng will have no worries about food and clothing, and there will be heirs.
After all, half of the blood flowing in Yuwen Weicheng's body is also from Wei Chi's family.
Wei Chidun asked the Son of Heaven to drive the expedition in person this time, but in fact, he just used it as a symbol to show how ridiculous the puppet emperor in the Hanging City was, but the accompanying 100,000 soldiers and horses were real, not an exaggeration at all.
He made such an arrangement to quickly cut through the chaos and quickly stabilize the situation in Yuzhou, so as not to have any more accidents.
Because if the official army is defeated for the third time, those local officials, generals, and heroes who are waiting and watching will really be ready to move, and the situation in Henan will be rotten at that time, and if you want to save it, you don't know how much extra blood will have to be invested.
And let the Son of Heaven personally conquest, Wei Chidun also has another plan, that is, to coerce Yu Wenwen, who is entrenched in the hanging gourd, let him know each other, hide back to Shannan honestly, and don't try to trap beasts in Yuzhou.
Otherwise, when the two armies were facing each other, the Son of Heaven appeared in the formation and called on the officers and soldiers to fight hard to kill the enemy, what should Yu Wenwen on the opposite side do?
Do you dare to do anything to your son?
