Chapter 155 Brawl and Comfort
"Recently, the light snow has been gone, miss me."
In the house, Liu Feiyun and Lin Yuxue whispered, while Xiao Hanhai babbled in the shaker on the side, shouting from time to time: "Daddy." ”
However, Liu Feiyun just smiled at him: "Dad knows, you play by yourself." After making sure that the little guy was not in danger of running out, Liu Feiyun continued to flirt with Lin Yuxue.
As for Lin Yuxue, she fell softly in Liu Feiyun's arms, coupled with those sweet words, the real thoughts in them had already hugged Liu Feiyun tightly with shame, and her face was full of happiness.
The little guy was very puzzled about why his parents hugged each other, tilted his head and stared at the cute eyes, and then looked at it for a while and felt bored.
Mom and Dad ignored me, but the toys were interesting.
"Brother Yun, when will you leave this time?" It's hard to say goodbye when you meet, but don't get together today, and you have to separate tomorrow, Lin Yuxue said nervously.
"Don't worry." Liu Feiyun took her Yujie hand and said, "If I come back this time, I will stay here with you all the time." ”
"Is the war ahead over?" Although Lin Yuxue was reluctant to let Liu Feiyun leave her, she couldn't delay his future because of herself.
Liu Feiyun said: "It's not over yet, but the newly enthroned emperor asked us to stop the war and stick to the city, I have already arranged things over there, and it's the same whether it's over there or not." If something happens, just let me know when it's time. ”
"Is it really okay?"
"Don't worry."
It feels good to go home, and then eat, drink and accompany his wife and children every day. Although, his father-in-law often complains about the affairs of the first emperor, which makes him a little helpless, but it is generally heartwarming.
The county government doesn't need to go by himself, and now he has more responsibilities, so he can just shirk not going to the county office. Besides, with Feng Yu here, if something really happens, he can't make up his mind, he will definitely find it.
Liu Feiyun was at home but knew the world, and the counties on his side belonged to the most remote areas with the empire, and they were of little strategic significance, so no one came to attack them at this time.
Of course, it may be that he was intimidated by his strength and did not dare to touch his tiger whiskers easily.
Xihao is now suffering from internal and external troubles, not to mention facing seven countries alone, several supported princes have 'revolted' in various places, crusading against the current emperor Zhu Zhou's throne is not the right way, but a chaotic minister and thief.
Among them, Zhu Shang's voice is the loudest, after all, he is the orthodoxy announced by the edict, and he has the support of Chen Bingshu, the generalissimo who now commands the most troops, and one supporter is the head of the hundred officials, Prime Minister Qin Bin, who fled with Zhu Shang at the beginning.
Others, such as the Fourth Prince Zhu De, the Seventh Prince Zhu Ming, and so on, all have their own military support or are the commanders of the first army. However, although they supported Zhu Shang's rebellious writings, they all stood still and waited to see the development of the situation.
The stability between the countries was only temporary, and the reason why they chose to withdraw their troops before was to let the West fight internally and not achieve a unified external alliance.
Now that everyone can see that a union is not possible, it is natural to regain the losses of the past, and if possible, to occupy more land.
"Valley Lord, the west of Xihao has lost four counties, and the northwest has lost two counties, all of which are struggling to support. Fortunately, the north is okay, there are Chen Bingshu, the people are strong and the horses are strong, but it is easy to defend it. However, the southern side lost the most, losing twelve counties in a row. ”
After explaining the general situation, Liu Yiyi: "Valley Lord, you need to be prepared, if more counties are lost on the southern side, then the few counties you occupy now will be surrounded, and it will be impossible for them not to attack you at that time." ”
"It depends on the situation at that time, it's really not possible to withdraw all of them to Yuyang County, anyway, no matter what happens in the end, we don't have to worry too much, it's a big deal to leave."
For this Liu Yi very agreed, don't look at it as if the people around Liu Feiyun are only a few of them, this is just the surface, how to say that Liu Feiyun is the leader of the Yanhuang Empire, the emperor.
On the islands not far off the coast of Yuyang County and Yunzhong County, there is a fully armed regiment of 5,000 troops. Don't underestimate this regiment, it may not be able to sweep a country when it is pulled out, but it may not be able to sweep tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops, and even hundreds of thousands of people can be operated.
After all, they have been able to use firearms flexibly, and although they do not have guns and cannons, grenades and explosives packs are enough for an army to flee in a rout. This is an era of believing in ghosts and gods, and the earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking, how can it not make the uninformed soldiers lose their fighting spirit in an instant.
These regular armies fought fiercely with each other, but after all, it was the common people who were injured, the world was in chaos, thieves were everywhere, and they easily did not dare to fight those armies and counties. But the people of Pingtou, those small mountain villages, are not a dozen or a quasi.
In many places, the people can't survive at all, and the food that has been hard for a year last year, except for the only way to survive after paying taxes and exploitation, is gone.
The number of displaced people continues to increase, everywhere is chaotic and chaotic, the world is in turmoil, when can we rest!
However, Liu Feiyun doesn't care about the so-called disturbances, as long as it doesn't affect him, whatever they do, although he has the ability to save the world, but for now, he will not use the force of the Yanhuang Empire.
There was once an internal meeting in the Yanhuang Empire, and the General Staff put forward the idea of whether to capture the Central Plains, but finally rejected it, thinking that this is not the best time, and there must be no problem with success, but the cost will not be small, or continue to expand overseas, where a large area of land resources can be taken effortlessly, why bother to do thankless work.
A comfortable life is easy to sink, the family is called eating and drinking well, resting well, I don't want to be in the barracks, even if you have the ability to go to the big fish and meat, you have to consider the feelings of the soldiers, in case there is a gap in someone's heart, it may become a fuse at some point, Liu Feiyun can avoid it as much as possible.
Braised pork, pot-wrapped meat, big fish and big meat, all kinds of meat, appetite, this is one of Liu Feiyun's two favorite things now, as for the other one, of course, it is to accompany his wife and children, maybe he can have a Spring Festival at night.
Happy hour, especially in this day and age, when wars are raging, are short-lived, even incomprehensible for many. Liu Feiyun is enjoying a happy time, but Liu Yi brings him bad news.
"Valley Lord, there is news from the south, the Purple Cloud Kingdom has divided 30,000 troops and is coming towards Jiuhe and Sanchuan, do you inform Liu Wei that they continue to resist, or let them withdraw?"
"30,000 horses, then Qingbei County will definitely not be able to hold it, it is very likely that it will fall into an isolated and helpless situation, you send a message to Liu Wei and ask them to take away all the materials in Qingbei County and transfer them to Sanchuan County."
"That's right." When Liu Yi turned around and was about to deliver the message, Liu Feiyun added: "Let them defend the city in the same way as before, don't care about the materials, if they run out and can't defend it, give up decisively, even if the other counties are lost, it doesn't matter, living is the most important thing." ”
Liu Feiyun said this, I don't know how far Liu Wei will carry it out, I hope this person will not have a hot brain, saying that this is the county guard who has worked hard to fight down, and he is in the city.
Liu Wei was indeed not reckless, after receiving Liu Feiyun's order, he decided to retreat to the easier to defend Sanchuan County, and his nearly 20,000 troops, against the 20,000 plus 30,000 reinforcements in Jiuhe County, a total of 50,000 troops, there was no pressure at all, as long as he honestly laid out those routines of Liu Feiyun.
You must know that following Liu Feiyun's side for such a long time, not to mention the key points in defending the city, you must have learned ten or ninety, and it is enough to deal with it.
The enemy army learned from nowhere that Liu Feiyun was not in the army, and he didn't know how much boldness he had, so he directly chose to attack the city.
There were no accidents, fire oil, vegetable oil, boiling water...... made the other party feel painful, maybe he didn't expect to face such a situation, Liu Feiyun was not there, they were the elite who survived from the front line.
It's just that Liu Wei actually told them: "Lao Tzu is fighting elites like you, dare to look down on me, but I am also a subordinate of my family, haven't I ever eaten pork, haven't I seen a pig run!" ”
"Pour it for me, pour it hard, how much oil is there, it's not that I brought a few cars back from Qingbei County, and some people in Sanchuan County continue to pull it over for me."
Liu Wei commanded in an orderly manner, and supplies were constantly being transported up to give gifts to the enemy troops who were besieging the city, so cool that they jumped up and down and burped.
After repelling the enemy's attack, Liu Wei found the person in charge of material management and said, "How can the materials collected so far allow us to hold out like this for a few days?" ”
"At present, the type of fire oil can support today's use of about seven times, and the lower officials are working hard to collect it, but it will only be about ten times at most, and adults need to prepare early." The steward in charge of supplies.
"Ten times, as long as there are ten times, it is enough, kill thousands of people at a time, and then we can retreat to Jizhou County for the next round of defense, the county guard has given us instructions, don't make mistakes." Liu Wei implemented Liu Feiyun's thoughts very effectively.
The steward said solemnly: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, there will never be a mistake in me." ”
This time the enemy army can be described as menacing, although the first setback, but it does not hinder their determination. In addition to attacking the city head-on, he also thought of a sneak attack, but he was always repelled by Liu Wei's strict defense.
Originally, the situation was very clear, and after more than ten days, according to the judgment, I should be able to hold out for a few days. However, the enemy army came prepared this time, the original 30,000 was only the vanguard, and there was still a large army of 50,000 in the rear.
Upon learning this news, Liu Wei decisively gave up the county town of Sanchuan, the key materials here are almost exhausted, and if he can defend it here, there will be huge losses even if he can defend it. Liu Feiyun's request was to avoid losses as much as possible, so it was the best choice to retreat before the enemy reinforcements arrived, otherwise it might be difficult to go.
After retreating to Jizhou County, Liu Wei was more confident, because this was the place that was taken earlier, and in order to deal with this enemy attack, many materials from Fengyang County and Yunzhong County had been transported to this city.
