Chapter 205 Sound East Strikes West
Let's say that Wang Yan won Yuezhou, and urged He Tengjiao to send troops over as agreed, and then marched into Wuchang to force Luck Dehun to retreat, but after he waited for a few days, the result was only 2,000 people from Zhang Kuang's department and more than 10,000 troops under the command of Dai Zhifan.
Wang Yan couldn't help but be furious when he saw this, but he was helpless, although he was the prince of the imperial court, but he did not have the right to control Chudi, and the emperor's holy decree only allowed him to cooperate with He Tengjiao and Du Yinxi, and he had no right to mobilize He Tengjiao.
Now He Tengjiao does not send troops, he will be a clever woman to cook without rice, there are only 30,000 soldiers in Yuezhou City, and 10,000 of them are still unreliable green battalions, so that he does not dare to go north easily.
He consulted with Zhang Kuang, Dai Zhifan and others, but he couldn't come up with a countermeasure, so he had to temporarily live in Junyuezhou, first occupy this important town in Hunan, and then think of changing the situation of the war.
At this time, although Wang Yan had few soldiers, with Dai Zhifan's silver salary, the silver money he had in hand was indeed very abundant, so he sent all the silver rewards for the great victory in Yuezhou, and even the Manda Zhuang Department also received the corresponding silver salary, which immediately boosted the morale of his subordinates.
Five thousand heads, each with five taels of silver, plus the reward that should be given for a big victory, Wang Yan spent a total of 80,000 taels of silver.
Since He Tengjiao made things difficult for Wang Yan on the soldiers, the grain, grass and materials needed by his army would inevitably not be allocated to a cent, and Wang Yan had to allocate 800,000 taels of silver to Wu Jinxi, who had just joined him, and let him go south to buy grain with Yongheng to prepare for the decisive battle.
In addition, Wang Yan also ordered Wang Shixiu, a thousand households, to sweep along the Yangtze River, recapture 100 warships, and hand over the ships to Mandazhuang to inspect the Yangtze River and obstruct the waterway.
The 10,000 green battalion soldiers in the city were cut off by Wang Yan and shaved their heads bald, so as to prevent their rebellious hearts, and then organized them into an army, ordering more than 100 soldiers in the army to be the general banner, 100 households, and 1000 households.
Wang Yan's successive actions in Yuezhou gradually stabilized his foundation in the city.
At this time, Jin Shijie, the messenger of blocking Yinxi, came to Yuezhou to ask for help after asking for help in Changsha to no avail, Wang Yan asked the situation of the governor of the block, Jin Shijie cried: "The danger is at stake, like a tired egg!" ”
Wang Yan originally wanted to break through Yuezhou, wait for He Tengjiao's army to arrive, and put pressure on Wuchang in raising troops, but because there were not many soldiers and horses, and the green camp was unstable, he did not dare to leave Yuezhou lightly, and now he listened to Jin Shijie's words and knew that the situation faced by Du Yinxi was far more critical than he imagined, and he couldn't help but feel distressed.
Plugging Yin Xi is the important minister of the country, and presided over the major event of appeasing the rest of the army, which can be called the stone pillar of the Ming Dynasty in Chu, Wang Yan had to save, and hurriedly summoned the servant Zhang Kuang, the general Dai Zhifan, Wang Shixiu, Wang Ji, Xie Kuang, Man Dazhuang and dozens of other people to discuss.
In the palace, Wang Yan first asked Jin Shijie to listen to the crisis situation in Yongding City, and then said: "Blocking Taiwan is an important minister of the country, and there must be no mistakes, this governor has decided to raise troops to the north and force the Qing troops to return to Wuchang, what do you think?" ”
When Jin Shijie heard this, he cried with joy and bowed again and again.
Zhang Kuang frowned slightly, "Yuezhou is newly restored, the foundation is unstable, and the Guogong only has 30,000 horses, but the Qing army has a lot of soldiers and horses. How many soldiers and horses does the prince want to lead north? If you go more, Yuezhou will be empty, and I am afraid that the Qing army will repeat its old skills, and attack Yuezhou again, and if you go less, you can't beat Wuchang, so what can you do about it? ”
Wang Yan heard the words and said: "The worries of the servant are also known to the governor. Now the governor of Yuezhou, Wuchang has been shaken, if the governor is leading an army to Wuchang at this time, Tong Yanghe will inevitably ask for help from Luck Dehun. In this way, the danger of the governor will be blocked, and it will be solved immediately! And this governor doesn't want to go to Wuchang, it's really a sound to attack the west! ”
When Zhang Kuang heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Sound east and west? ”
When the rest of the generals heard this, they couldn't help but light up, and Qiqi looked at him.
"Not bad!" Seeing this, Wang Yan nodded, then stood up and said, "This governor only needs to shake a shot under Wuchang City, so that Tong Yanghe can ask for help from Luck Dehun, and force the Qing army in western Hubei and northern Hunan to retreat." ”
Wang Yan said as he motioned to his subordinates to take the map, and then pointed: "In the hands of the governor, Yuezhou has choked the Yangtze River waterway, so that the Qing soldiers in northern Hunan and western Hubei can only take the land route north of the river to help. And when they dared to go to Wuchang, the governor had already led the army westward and went straight to Jingzhou. ”
"Good~ This is a big second!" After Zhang Kuang heard this, he immediately praised, "If the Duke of Guogong defeats Jingzhou, with the benefit of my Ming Navy, he can block the Yangtze River, cut off the back road of the Qing army in Changde, and sweep away the Qing army on the south bank in a war!" ”
If Wang Yan's plan is successful, he can mobilize the main force of the Qing army to the Wuchang area, and once the Qing army comes to the Yangtze River, the Ming army can take the opportunity to establish a river defense and block the Qing army on the north bank, while Wang Yan can take the opportunity to mobilize superior forces to defeat the forbidden state in one fell swoop, and surround the Qing troops in Changde.
Wang Yan listened to Zhang Kuang's admiration, nodded casually and said: "Whether this plan to attack the east and the west can succeed depends on two points, first, whether the Qing troops can be mobilized to help, and second, whether Yuezhou can be held. The first point is not to worry, the grain and grass materials of the Qing army are all in Wuchang, which is a place where Luckhun must be saved. The governor is most worried about the second point, after the Qing troops return to help, they will inevitably find the plan, Luckedhun will definitely send troops south to attack Yuezhou again, in order to rescue the Qing army in Changde, and in the face of the counterattack of the Qing army, whether or not to hold Yuezhou has become the key to whether to stay in the war. ”
Zhang Kuang heard Wang Yan's words and knew what he meant, and his body was not solemn for a while, "If the prince of the country can pass the lower officials, the lower officials are willing to guard Yuezhou!" ”
This time, Wang Yan must be all elite, in order to have a chance before the Qing army reacts, with lightning speed, to take Jingzhou in one fell swoop, and then sweep the Changde Qing army, so he must take away all the Dubiao pro-army and the loyal military battalion, and only Zhang Kuang is left who can defend Yuezhou.
At this time, Wang Yan walked in front of Zhang Kuang and couldn't help but clasp his hand, "In this way, Yuezhou will be handed over to the servant!" ”
So Wang Yan handed over all the 10,000 people in the Houyong battalion in Yuezhou City to Zhang Kuang, and then ordered Jin Shijie to return to Yongding, and ordered him to block Yinxi and Li Guo, and join him with Jingzhou, and said that as long as they came to Jingzhou, he would prepare grain and grass for the army.
The plan was established, Wang Yan led nearly 20,000 horses out of the city, and when he came to the Yangtze River, he ordered the soldiers to play more flags and bluff, so as to call the soldiers 100,000, which made Jianghan shake.
After Tong Yanghe listened to Zhang Yingxiang's report again, his heart was shaken, and now he heard the Malay report, Wang Yan led the troops to kill, and immediately sent fast horses to hurry up to Luckedhun for help.
