Chapter 910: Division of Troops

In the autumn of the first year of Hongwu, Li Jing led an army of 250,000 to capture Keyimen, and the guards Wei Ming Chengjing and Ji Ra Siyi were killed in battle, and Li Jing led the army directly into Xingqing Mansion and launched the final attack on Western Xia.

The scenery of Wuyi Mountain in the autumn of the first year of Hongwu was beautiful, but Fang Baihua did not inspect the army and watch the training of the army in person as in the past, but summoned the generals under his command to discuss Yue Fei's arrival.

Military advisors Wang Yin, Lou Minzhong, generals Fang Bao, Lu Shisang and others gathered together, although it was not as many as more than 100 people in the original Fang La, but after several years of development, Fang Baihua also had 100,000 soldiers and horses, and dozens of generals. Of course, most of these hundreds of thousands of troops are old, weak, women and children, and there are only 30,000 capable of fighting.

"Yue Fei's own Yuejia army has as many as forty or fifty thousand people, plus the Xiang army from all over the country, adding up, there are about 100,000 people, who are killing from Langu, Linjiang, and Songxi, and even, in Da'an, they also fell into the occupation of the Xiang army on the west road of Jiangnan, the general is Zhang Xian, the general under Yue Fei, and the general Dong Xian under Yue Fei in Songxi, and the few cavalry under Yue Fei are mastered, called the Tabai Army." Chen Long looked at the map in front of him and told Fang Baihua what situation he was facing now.

"Yue Fei's attack is sharp, and his speed is too fast. Although our people are still retreating, the accumulation of several years, and those people, where can they easily retreat. Lou Minzhong smiled bitterly.

"Now only the soldiers are left in Wuyi Mountain, princess, although Yue Fei is powerful, but we are fighting and retreating, although Yue Fei is powerful, but this place is not Zhao Gou's lair, we have a deep foundation in this area, with the help of secret guards, there is no problem with the convenience of food and grass, Yue Fei wants to deal with us, it is not a simple matter." Fang Leopard said loudly. He had also heard Yue Fei's name, a person who even Li Jing was very afraid of, although Fang Leopard was very conceited and brave, and even looked down on Yue Fei for a while, but since the army and Yue Fei came into contact, he had been defeated repeatedly, so that he finally faced Yue Fei squarely, and the result of this face-up was that the army was defeated again and again, and now he had to retreat.

"Retreat is naturally a retreat, it's just a question of where to go. According to His Majesty's orders, retreat to Liuqiu, retreat on our side, Yue Fei may not know, so what we have to do is how to hide our purpose. Fang Baihua thought for a while and said. Now in the coastal area, there are not no ships heading to the Ryukyus, but if you want to avoid Yue Fei's pursuit, there are many issues to consider.

Everyone nodded again and again, the army retreated, at first maybe Yue Fei didn't know, but later it was definitely not able to hide Yue Fei's ears and eyes, more importantly, Li Jing did not focus on the development of the sailor, although there are some sailor warships, but most of them are in the Yangtze River or the Yellow River, there is still a certain difference between the river ship and the sea boat, if you want to leave the inland by sea and go to Liuqiu, you don't have to occupy Quanzhou, Guangzhou and other places, these places have a large number of sea ships, as long as they occupy here, they will definitely be able to solve the problem of the sailor.

"Liangzhejiang Road, Fujian Road, Guangnan East Road Zhao Gou have soldiers and horses stationed, especially Liangzhejiang Road, at this time to Liangzhejiang Road may not be possible, the rest of the only Fujian Road and Guangnan East Road Quanzhou and Guangzhou, with a large number of sea vessels, in line with our requirements." Chen Long pointed to two places under the map.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Quanzhou already had a city division, and there were soldiers and horses stationed, on the one hand, it was to suppress the place, and on the other hand, it was to guard against pirates, these soldiers and horses did not have to worry, but once they acted, it was possible to expose the intentions of the army.

"Otherwise, let's send some troops to Quanzhou first and seize the ships, so that Yue Fei won't know where we stop next." Lu Shisang thought for a while and said.

"No, if that's the case, Yue Fei knows that we will definitely escape by boat, he will strengthen the defense of the coastal area, and even order the sailors of other coastal cities to patrol the sea, we are not the opponent of the other party." Fang Baihua's eyes lit up first, and then quickly shook his head. From Mingzhou to the Dehua Army, Wenzhou, Fuzhou and other places, there are a large number of sea ships, and even the sailors with them are extremely powerful.

"Yes, as long as we are stopped for a day, Yue Fei will definitely lead a large army to kill, we are not the opponent of the other party." Fang Leopard looked at the map in front of him, his face was gloomy, and he said, "This damn guy, even Li Jing is afraid of this matter, and instead of dealing with Li Jing, he came to deal with us." Fang Bao was not polite to Li Jing and called him by his name.

Chen Long saw it in his eyes, his eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, these damn guys are just a group of thieves, if it weren't for Concubine De Niangniang here, Chen Long wouldn't have come here.

"Niangniang, the minister suggested dividing the troops, and the soldiers were divided into three ways." Lu Shisang saw Chen Long's expression in his eyes, thought for a while and said: "The minister suggested that the troops be divided into three ways, on the one hand, it can confuse Yue Fei and make Yue Fei not know the direction we are heading, and second, Yue Fei can be caught off guard. "In the rebel army, most of them call Fang Baihua a princess, but people like Lu Shisang call each other Niangniang, and they actually regard themselves as Li Jing's courtiers.

"General Lu, how do you divide the troops? Wouldn't the division of troops be broken by Yue Fei individually? Fang Bao glared at Lu Shisang dissatisfied. Although Fang La had died in battle, Fang Bao and these people still recognized Fang Tianding as the master, so they called Fang Baihua a princess, but people like Lu Shisang called Fang Baihua a mother, which actually regarded him as Li Jing's subordinate.

If it weren't for the strong enemy outside, and the fact that this army still needed Li Jing's assistance, I am afraid that the two sides would have been in flames and would have fallen apart. At present, Lu Shisang thinks that the division of troops, in Fang Bao's opinion, is to break up, which makes Fang Bao very dissatisfied.

"If you want to get the sailor warship, and you want to resist Yue Fei's attack, it is obviously an impossible thing, the most important thing at the moment is to attract Yue Fei's attention and let Yue Fei's eyes lock on another place, while most of the troops can directly attack one place and capture the sailor warship in that place." Lu Shisang didn't pay attention to Fang Leopard, but lowered his head and said.

"Yes, hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, maybe we can solve the problem of Yue Fei pursuing from behind, although Yue Fei is the commander of the southbound army, but in the end, he is a general, in the Southern Song Dynasty court, he may not be able to command other armies, our troops are divided into three ways, Yue Fei is too busy to take care of himself, and he may be able to achieve victory." Long Chen glanced approvingly at Lu Shinang.

There are many advantages to dividing the soldiers into three ways, in addition to confusing Yue Fei, more importantly, it can ensure the safety of Fang Baihua, in the eyes of Chen Long, or Lu Shisang and others, the lives of Fang Tianding, Fang Leopard and the lives of the 100,000 army are not as safe as Fang Baihua. The soldiers are divided into three ways, all the way to protect Fang Baihua with elite soldiers, attacking the east and west, and hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, which can not only increase the possibility of seizing the warship, but also protect the safety of Fang Baihua.
