Chapter 1471 Never move the capital
Wuwei City was strongly captured by the Yan army, and the generals who defended the city, Xiong Kuohai, Han Xiangzi, and Xiong Zhan died in the city, at the head of the city, and outside the city!
The Yan army broke into the city and captured nearly 100,000 Xuanjia soldiers who had no time to evacuate!
Chu Emperor Xiong Wu, Imperial Concubine Li Yuhe, and Prince Xiong Kui were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Yan cavalry on the way to flee south with their army!
The royal family of Chu State was all captured by the Yan army, and nearly 60,000 Xuanjia soldiers were forced to surrender to Yan State!
In the cold winter, the news that Wuwei City was broken, Xiong Wu was captured, and the Xuanjia soldiers surrendered was like a cold wind blowing from the north of the Yangtze River, quickly spreading from Wuwei City to the south!
The people were terrified and terrified when they crossed the city!
Parents wiped tears day and night, worried about the sons who became prisoners of the Yan army, or died in Wuwei City, the wives howled and cried, missing their husbands in the north, and the men were full of indignation, and wanted to go spontaneously to rescue the Emperor of Chu and rescue the sons of the Chu Kingdom.
Even ignorant children feel the slightest sadness from the sadness of adults!
The cities and counties in the south are guarded, and the defenders will be afraid and frightened!
Emperor Chu has a large number of generals, gathering the most warlike generals and the most fierce soldiers in Chu State, and he can't stop the edge of the Yan army!
In the thunderous attack of the Yan army, the city changed hands in an instant!
They are just scattered soldiers, protecting the order in the city on weekdays, except for a few leading generals who have experience in battlefield combat, the rest of the soldiers are all recruits with no experience!
Hundreds of thousands of Yan troops are moving south from the north at all times, and they have no ability to resist the Wuwei Lion coming from the north!
With Hou Mingfeng, Feng Shihu, Meng Kuo, and Zhao Jun leading their troops to wreak havoc in the territory of Northern Chu, annexing and defending empty cities, it is imperative for the Yan army to move south and break into the territory of Southern Chu!
Yingcheng!
When the news reached the city, the people were completely in a panic, as if the sky suddenly collapsed and fell into endless darkness!
Panic and despair!
Scared and helpless!
Even if Xiong Heng usurped the throne and expelled Emperor Chu from the north, in the hearts of many people, Xiong Wu was still their emperor!
Xiong Wu has inherited the throne for more than ten years, and with drastic reforms, the national strength of Chu has flourished and become stronger and stronger!
As soon as the order comes out, the southern vassal states dare not obey!
Even if Xiong Wu was in power, in the Northern Expedition over the years, the Chu army lost one after another, it still did not affect the status of Chu in the south!
What's more, Xiong Wu's Northern Expedition is one of the few emperors of the Chu State who dared to send the Chu army on an expedition in the past few decades!
In Yingcheng, it has a high honor and influence!
Today, Xiong Wu was captured by the Yan army in Wuwei City in the north and became a prisoner of the Yan Kingdom!
lost his wisdom for a while, and in the second half of his life, he had to bear the humiliation from Yan Guo, as well as self-blame and remorse in his heart!
Emperor Chu had 300,000 under his account, most of whom were young sons recruited from inside and outside Yingcheng during Xiong Wu's reign.
Emperor Chu surrendered, more than 100,000 Chu Guoerlang died on the battlefield, and more than 100,000 surrendered to the Yan army!
After hearing the news, the people in Yingcheng cried like shaking the heavens and the earth, even more so the people in the northern city!
They were speculating how powerful the Yan army was, and even the Xuanjia soldiers who were crisscrossing the south were defeated in front of the Yan army!
They are afraid, afraid of the majestic and murderous Yan army, beheading the Emperor of Chu, beheading the captives!
When the people were extremely scared, news came out of Yingcheng!
Xiong Heng's selfishness, usurping the throne and stealing the country, caused the Emperor of Chu to flee to the north of Chu to stand on his own and save his life, the north and south of Chu were divided, and the overall strength of Chu was weakened!
Emperor Chu resisted the Yan army in the north and insisted on fighting hard, but was pinned down by Xiong Heng's generals!
The abdomen and back are under the enemy, the situation is unbearable, and the strength of Northern Chu has been sharply reduced!
If it weren't for Xiong Heng stealing the throne!
If it weren't for Xiong Heng to contain Xiong Wu!
With the ability of Emperor Chu, what about the Yan army going south, he still has momentum and has the ability to resist the Yan army going south!
It is guaranteed that the sons of Chu will not die on the battlefield, nor will they be captured by the Yan army and become a disgrace to the Chu State!
The people suddenly heard the news circulating in Yingcheng, lost their children's parents, lost their husbands and wives, lost their brothers and men, lost their father's children, and believed the rumors in the city!
The evidence of the fall of Northern Chu, the capture of Emperor Chu, the death of the Xuanjia soldiers, and the criminal evidence of the Yan army wreaking havoc in the north of Chu are all blamed on Xiong Heng!
Xiong Heng!
That's right, it was Xiong Heng, in order to satisfy his ambitions, that destroyed the country of Chu!
He is the culprit of the fall of Northern Chu!
The people were burning angrily, sitting in the palace, Xiong Heng, who was burning with anger, and in an instant, he became a rat crossing the street, and everyone shouted and beaten!
Not only was he not supported by the people, but he was regarded as an accomplice who helped Yan State capture Northern Chu and capture Emperor Chu!
"Waste, Xiong Wu, Han Xiangzi.... It's all rubbish!"
The Royal Palace, inside the study!
Xiong Heng browsed the battle report from the north by the spies, and learned that Xiong Wu was captured, Xiong Kuohai, Xiong Zhan was killed, and more than 100,000 Xuanjia soldiers were taken prisoner!
Long Yan Tieqing, panicked, and threw the fold on the floor of the study in anger!
Li Musheng and An Ziran are leading the Xuanjia soldiers under their tents, respectively in the eastern part of Chu State, Yulong Bay to block Feng Yi, Ju Wentai, and the Yan Army Sailor from the north, and the two sides are in a stalemate!
In the north of Yingcheng, there are iron horsemen under the tent of Lin Xiao, who are sweeping through the northern cities, and Southern Chu is in a precarious situation!
Suddenly, Wuwei City, which Xiong Wu led hundreds of thousands of Xuanjia soldiers to guard, was attacked by the Yan army!
Wuwei City fell and changed hands, the northern territory gradually fell, and even the well-trained Xuanjia soldiers under his account were captured by the Yan army.
In an instant, let the north of Southern Chu have no defense, and the vast territory is exposed under the nose of the Yan army!
If Lin Feng doesn't take a break and waives his army south, how can Nanchu have the strength to resist the flying Yan army!
The territory of Southern Chu is about to fall!
The people of Southern Chu are about to be captured!
Southern Chu is in danger of destroying the country!
In the study, the ministers are quiet and quiet!
The battle report from the north exceeded the expectations of all the officials present!
Once they estimated that there were many fierce soldiers under the account of Emperor Chu, and the walls of Wuwei City were thick, and the Yan army besieging Wuwei City would take a lot of time and lose many elites!
Not only could it not break the city, but it could also be defeated, which became a turning point in the Battle of Yanchu!
Who knew that the Yan army went to Wuwei City for only more than ten days, Wuwei City changed hands, and Emperor Chu became a prisoner.
Pathetic, hateful!
In silence, the official in charge of the military in Nanchu raised his eyelids and looked at the angry Xiong Heng, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, stood in the center of the study and urged.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Yan seized Wuwei City, and the Yan army went around to conquer nearby cities, as if they didn't rest in Wuwei City to celebrate the signs of the Spring Festival!
When Nanchu is about to face a military disaster, the emperor should quickly make up his mind, whether to fight or peace, and make plans early!"
"Fight, why not fight!"
"He Xiong Wu is stealing his life, shamelessly surrendering to the Yan army, I would rather die than surrender!" Xiong Heng stood up suddenly, smashed his fists on the bookcase, gritted his teeth and shouted!
"Your Majesty, Emperor Chu failed to resist the Yan army in the north, and the county guards of many cities in the north, the generals became frightened birds, and suddenly heard that the Chu Emperor was captured by the Yan army, and more than 100,000 Chu troops surrendered, and they wrote letters to the Yan Emperor to show goodwill, and even there were county guards, generals, with ministers, and sealed letters, to welcome the Yan army into the city!
According to the messenger in front of him, the Yan army has not yet moved south, and the soldiers of the northern city have no idea of fighting for a long time!
When the Yan army went south, Weichen was afraid of the county guards who had not yet surrendered, and either they were frightened and abandoned the city and fled, or they could not hold on, and the city changed hands!
At this moment, Nan Chu's strength is not enough to fight with the Yan army!"
Hearing this, Xiong Heng sat down angrily, and hummed: "The Southern Chu soldiers will be mostly in the east, containing Feng Yi and Ju Wentai, or obstructing Han Xiandang, Yue Yunshan, Mu Junchen, and the north of Yingcheng in Yulong Bay, Lin Xiao will lead the iron cavalry to gradually occupy the Sifang City, and the Yan cavalry under the tent will be eyeing the tiger!"
Before Emperor Yan went south, Lin Xiao might strike first and storm Yingcheng! Three battlefields in Southern Chu have invested hundreds of thousands of elites.
At the beginning, if Xiong Heng's elite surrendered to Southern Chu, Southern Chu had enough troops to resist the Yan army, and now, more than 100,000 elites surrendered to the Yan army, and they may even fight for the Yan country, the situation in the north is in crisis, and the only way to recruit troops from Yingcheng is to recruit troops!"
Hiss!
Recruitment?
Recruit again!
When the courtiers in the study heard the sound, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air!
Frightened, terrified!
The Southern Chu soldiers have few major generals, the Yan army is strong and strong, and there are many generals, and recruiting troops cannot fundamentally solve the problem!
Unless Li Musheng and An Ziran lead the elite under their tents, defeat Feng Yi, Ju Wentai, or the sailors of Yulong Bay, lead the troops back to the division, deploy defenses in Yingcheng, and solve the problems faced by Southern Chu!
Otherwise, Northern Chu will perish, Xiong Wu will be captured, the dust has not yet settled, and Southern Chu is afraid that it will not last long!
Yingcheng!
The imperial capital of Chu for hundreds of years, I'm afraid it won't last long!
At this moment, Xiong Heng, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was afraid of following in the footsteps of Emperor Chu!
"Your Majesty, the elite under the account of Emperor Chu are mostly recruited from Yingcheng, and there are not many young men near Yingcheng! On the other hand, the elite under the emperor's account, most of them are from the south of Chu State, and Weichen suggested that the capital be moved, the capital should be moved to the south, and with the help of the southern generals, choose areas that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and continue to fight against the Yan army!" In the study, the official in charge of money and food made suggestions to Xiong Heng!
"Lord Fei, there is no sufficient source of troops near Yingcheng, is there a sufficient source of troops in the south?
Lord Fei Fei forgot that over the years, the Chu State has continued to expedition to the north, and the Chu Emperor often recruits troops in the south, even if the emperor has an elite, it is also Han Xiangzi who recruited from the south, and many men in the south have died tragically in successive wars! Even though there are people from the north, many villages in the south are still deserted!
Moreover, for hundreds of years, Yingcheng has been the imperial capital of Chu State, and the previous emperors have repaired the city and the city walls are solid. In the southern region, not only are there not as strong cities as Yingcheng, but even the relatively large cities are very rare!
Moving the capital to the south and abandoning the foundation of the Chu State is undoubtedly digging one's own grave and making a cocoon for oneself!" The officials in charge of the military retorted sharply, disapproving of the relocation of the capital to the south!
Look at his firm attitude, it seems that he is ready to fight to the death with the Yan army in Yingcheng!
"Move the capital, you must not move the capital!"
Xiong Heng waved his hand, vetoed Lord Fei's proposal, and said loudly: "The foundation of the Chu State is in Yingcheng, the foundation of the Xiong family, the ancestral hall, the ancestral tomb, all in Yingcheng, if the capital is moved to the south, wouldn't it be to show weakness to the Yan army, isn't the dignified Southern Chu not as good as the Yan army?"
Southern Chu Chu Guo Erlang, can't you hold the territory of Chu State?
Li Yuhe said, an inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, 100,000 sons and 100,000 soldiers! Could it be that the monarchs and ministers of the Chu State are not as good as a woman?"
