Chapter 341: The Ultimate Battle (1) Soldiers Gather in Linzhou
【The third shift is delivered】
Linzhou, the core area of the Dali Empire, is also the most populous and richest state in Guannai.
Since the major families in the Guannai have supported their troops to conquer each other, this area of Linzhou has been collectively skipped by the major families, and the family alliance has not occupied Linzhou, and the northern king Nanyun has not occupied Linzhou.
At present, the form of the Guannai is that the Wang clan in the north occupies Suzhou, Qinzhou, Xinzhou, Yuanzhou, Huizhou and the northern area of Tongzhou, and the Yun clan in the south, occupying Zezhou, Laizhou, Hezhou, Hengzhou and the southern region of Tongzhou, and the Yun clan occupies one less state than the Wang clan, but this does not have much to do with the victory or defeat of the ultimate battle.
Without exception, both Yunyi and Wang Shuo regarded Linzhou as the final battlefield of the ultimate battle.
Outside the gate of Yunfu, Shangguan Yuling, Shen Mengxin, Shangguan Xiying, Yuan Xin, and Fang Xuan saw off Yunyi with tears in their eyes.
In the palace of Yuanzhou City, after Wang Shuo's wife Murong Yu tied a cloak for Wang Shuo, Wang Shuo strode out of the palace.
In the north, Wang Shuo's army is gathering towards Linzhou.
In the south, the Yunyi army is also gathering towards Linzhou.
Although the war has not yet begun, there are already signs of panic in Linzhou, and everyone knows that Linzhou is about to become the battlefield of the northern king and the southern cloud.
In the imperial palace, Fang Xu stopped enjoying himself, and a trace of sadness inexplicably appeared in his heart.
This year is the fifth year of Tiancheng, which means that this year is the fifth year that Fang Xu has become the emperor of the Great Li Empire, no matter how much Fang Xu doesn't think about the government, after being the emperor for so long, Fang Xu still wants to continue to sit on the throne of the emperor.
However, Fang Xu also knew that there would be no six years left in the future, and this year might be his own death.
Fang Xu had some resentment in his heart for his ancestors, why did he let the Fang clan fall to such a point.
Fang Xu didn't think about it, if it weren't for the Fang Clan's falling to such a point, how could Fang Xu have a chance to become the emperor of the Great Li Empire.
Xinping City is still under the control of the ministers of the Zhongjun faction, but in the face of the current situation, most of the ministers of the Zhongjun faction are also decadent, whether it is the Wang family or the Yun family, it is not something that the imperial court can resist.
However, there are also a small number of ministers of the Zhongjun faction who still have a small hope hidden in their hearts, they hope that the Wang family and the Yun family can lose both, and then the imperial court will eliminate both the Wang family and the Yun family, and finally reunify the Guannai.
The emperors, sons and grandsons who competed for the throne of the emperor at the beginning are now no longer visible in Xinping City, and since they saw the reality clearly, they have each looked for a way out.
After seeing the reality clearly, those small forces who took refuge in the emperor's sons and grandsons stayed away from these emperors and grandsons, and even regarded them as trouble.
Lack of emperors and grandsons, no one is taken seriously, some of the emperors and grandsons are incognito to be a rich man, a few emperors and grandsons left the Dali Empire with loyal subordinates, and a few emperors and grandsons died at the hands of others.
Sad.
It's also funny to say, in Linzhou, where the Family Alliance, the Wang Clan, and the Yun Clan have not entered, it can be called the most chaotic area in the Guannai.
The control of most of Linzhou fell into the hands of local families, and some small families with ideas attacked each other, and the battle of a few thousand people or more than 10,000 people was also impressive.
However, most of the families have already chosen to take refuge in Wang Shuo, and some families have chosen to take refuge in Yunyi, but they can't accept Yunyi's conditions.
What are the conditions of Yunyi?
There is no fief, no private soldiers can be owned, all warriors must be registered, the children of the family are guilty of the same crime as the common people, and so on.
How can they accept these harsh conditions of Yunyi, and if they do, can they still call it a family?
Yun Yi doesn't care if there is a family to take refuge in him, and Yun Yi doesn't need other families to take refuge, whether it is the Dali Empire or other countries on the land of Shenzhou, Yun Yi can see a fact clearly, except for his own family, he can't allow other families to exist, of course, the family that can't exist refers to the kind of family that has fiefs and private soldiers.
As for the families who have no fiefs and no private soldiers, if they want to weaken their influence on the country, it is actually very simple, as long as the Yun education system is fully promoted in the Guannei, so that the children of the poor family and the children of the family can compete on the same stage, the superior will advance, and the inferior will retreat.
Those families who took refuge in Wang Shuo in Linzhou are also very worried now, what should they do if the Yun clan defeats the Wang clan?
The news of the Yun clan's defeat of hundreds of thousands of troops of the Tang Empire has spread all over the Guannei, and no one will think that the Wang clan is definitely stronger than the Yun clan, but many people think that the Yun clan is stronger than the Wang clan.
But under the conditions offered by Yunyi, they can only choose the Wang family, they want the Wang family to win, and they are willing to help the Wang family win.
The various families got together to discuss, and finally they decided to gather the forces of each family to assist the Wang clan in defeating the Yun clan.
Unexpectedly, this gathering of troops actually assembled a "large army" with a strength of up to 160,000.
This is a miscellaneous army with 160,000 extremely low combat effectiveness, Yun Yi did not put it in his eyes, and Wang Shuo did not put it in his eyes.
Beginning in mid-September, the Yun armies in various places under the Yun clan have assembled towards the southern part of Linzhou, and the Wang army in various places under the Wang clan is also assembling towards the northern part of Linzhou.
At the end of September, the Yunjia army, totaling 65,000 people, was assembled in the southern part of Linzhou, and in the northern part of Linzhou, the 320,000 Wang army was also assembled.
There are two other major forces in Linzhou, one is the imperial army, with less than 50,000 people, and the other is the Linzhou family coalition army, with a force of 160,000.
The Yunjia army is not more than 65,000 people, there are two newly trained infantry divisions in Zezhou, Yunyi did not mobilize these two infantry divisions that have not yet been trained, there are 65,000 Yunjia troops in hand, that is, the enemy has 500,000 troops, and Yunyi also dares to lead the Yunjia army to fight.
Yun Yi has come to Linzhou, Wang Shuo has also come to Linzhou, the ultimate battle is about to begin, both sides are making final preparations, and invariably, both sides will choose the battlefield on the plain east of Xinping City.
"Let's go!"
……
Feng Wei is really a little busy now, before Feng Wei did not plan to go to Guannei, in the Tang Empire, Feng Wei was completely able to suppress the domestic families.
With the Huang family's refuge, Feng Wei originally thought that he would be able to conquer the chaotic Guannai by sending hundreds of thousands of troops, and at that time, the domestic families would be suppressed by Feng Wei.
Who would have thought that the god of war Feng Ye would sink into the sand in the pass, and hundreds of thousands of troops would also die in the pass, and the families in the Tang Empire would "shoot" after learning the news, using various methods to buy those officials loyal to Feng Wei and reduce Feng Wei's strength.
In his busy schedule, Feng Wei ordered the Huang clan who took refuge in him to be beheaded, although the Huang family got the news in advance, but in the end only three congenital grandmasters, one descendant, and the Huang family also had some branches and clansmen.
