Chapter 1201: Take Wanzhou

Wanzhou City in the vast snow, now it is full of devastation, the city wall has been destroyed to seventy-seven eighty-eight, countless Chu soldiers holding high banners, shouting from a ladder, one by one from the gap into the city, with the rumbling sound, the heavy city gate slowly opened, and the cavalry who had been waiting outside the city gate poured in with their sabers high.

Wanzhou City, when the last snow of this winter came, was broken by the Chu army.

Under the banner of the Chinese army hunting in the wind and snow, Bian Wushuang, who was dressed all over his body, looked at the soldiers who poured into the city in front of him with a smile, and after months of planning, he finally paid off.

A full 20,000 horses, in the vast ice and snow day and night for half a month, silently cut into Wanzhou City, and under Zhou Jiyun's unprepared situation, conquered Wanzhou City in one fell swoop. Now Zhou Jiyun's main force is completely isolated in the Jinghu area, and there is no day to fall.

What Zhou Jiyun never expected was that in such a season of ice and snow, there would be a unit that ignored the extreme weather, interspersed hundreds of miles, and directly approached the city.

"A guy who has the ability but is too arrogant." This is Bian Wushuang's evaluation of Zhou Jiyun. Do you really think that the Qi army is invincible in the world? In terms of individual combat ability and the degree of hardship and hard work of the soldiers, the soldiers of the Qin State are the first in the world. Especially the guys who crawled out of the Loeh Ying Mountains.

This time, the joint action with Bian Wushuang was the 10,000 horses of Bian Wushuang's headquarters, plus the 10,000 former Chu Western Army in Suqian. These two teams have been fighting in the Luoying Mountains for many years, and they are completely insensitive to the cold winter, and in the Luoying Mountains, the fight is going on at any time, no matter what the season.

He turned his head to look at his side, it was Yang Qing, the commander of the internal guard, the emperor's cronies, and now his face was also haggard, his face was full of stubble, and he was afraid that he had lost more than ten pounds.

In the past half a month, in order to cover up their whereabouts, the internal security elite went out, constantly hunting and killing the scouts of the Qi State on the way forward of the army, exploring horses, and even the high-ranking and powerful Yang Qing also attacked in person, and now it has finally been achieved, although extremely tired, Yang Qing's face finally showed an irrepressible smile.

"Congratulations to Bian Dashuai, this great achievement, the surrounding department has been hit hard, and he is no longer able to defend the six eastern counties, Bian Shuai will recover the six eastern counties, and the recovery of my Great Chu land is just around the corner!" Yang Qing arched his hand and said to Bian Wushuang with a smile.

"This time can make great achievements, Commander Yang and the internal guards under his command have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, without your help, how can the army be so easy to arrive in Wanzhou City under Zhou Jiyun's unknowingly to launch a surprise attack. On top of the merits, Commander Yang should be in the forefront! Bian Wushuang also responded with a smile.

The position of the internal guard is critical and pervasive, even if the internal guard of the Chu State no longer has the strength that can compete with the ghost shadow before, but in the Chu State, there is still great power, and Yang Qing is the emperor's hardcore confidant, and it is naturally beneficial to be friendly with this kind of person. It is better to offend the gentleman than to offend the villain, if you really want to offend the internal guard, there will be a lot of trouble, like Cheng Wuben, which is a lesson from the past.

"A little bit of credit, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning!" Yang Qing couldn't keep his mouth shut, in the past two years, the internal guard was ghosted by the Qi State in the foreign war, and the Ming State Eagle Nest couldn't raise his head, Yang Qing had been angrily reprimanded by Min Ruoying many times, and the holy family was not as good as before, if it weren't for this, this time in the war to recover the six counties, he would not need to charge forward with an ordinary general. For him, the Holy Favor is everything.

A war horse galloped from the direction of Wanzhou City, and in front of Bian Wushuang, a beautiful saddle dismounted, strode to Bian Wushuang, bowed and said, "Return to the marshal, the outer city has been fully under the control of my army, and the Zhou thief led the remnants to retreat into the inner city, and is resisting stubbornly in the corner, and the clean-up work in the city has also begun." ”

"Hmm!" Bian Wushuang narrowed his eyes and glanced at Wanzhou City, which was full of flames: "Go back to General Yusu, but you can really put Zhou Jiyun in a cage, so you have to let him live!" ”

The soldiers who came to report showed a look of confusion on their faces, but it was only fleeting, and they rushed back to the city in response to the order.

"Zhou Jiyun is really lucky, it's all like this, and he has to be let live." Yang Qing said with emotion.

Bian Wushuang laughed: "Only by letting him live can we bring us greater benefits, if we really want to kill him, the one who is satisfied is the Emperor Luo of Qi State!" The powerful forces of the Qi State were swept away by General An Ruhai and General Jiang Tao, and a group of them were killed by the Emperor of Qi himself, and those who can hold on to the present are all old brands, and now these old brands have been bitten by us again, if Zhou Jiyun is killed again, they will really collapse, how can they leave them a little hope, so that they can give the Emperor of Qi another don't have any signs! ”

"It's just that now they are getting weaker and weaker, if they don't have the heart to work with the emperor anymore, we will steal chickens and rice!" Yang Qing was a little worried.

"You don't have to worry about this, the old brand of aristocrats, they don't cry when they don't see the coffin, in the country of Qi, there are many such old forces, the history of their family is much longer than the history of the Qi country, and some even extend to the early Tang Dynasty, they are all proud to the extreme, and they want them to obey, hehe, it's difficult!" Bian Wushuang Road.

He Bian's family, not to mention that he was not an old-fashioned nobleman, when he was in the West, it was with their support that the Ma family was able to leap up and establish the Western Qin, and later in order to balance their Bian family, this supported the Deng family.

Such a wealthy family has one of the most significant characteristics, that is, the family honor, the family is above all else, and the country is just a tool for them. In all dynasties, it was just a matter of the failure of the people's rebellion, but all the fruits fell on these great tribes in the end. Even if it was the Tang Dynasty established by the majestic Li Qing Emperor thousands of years ago, when the Li Qing Emperor left, it eventually became the most powerful weapon in the hands of the clan, and at the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was finally ousted by the clan, and the Tang Dynasty, which was once prosperous, finally fell apart, and the Cao family, the Min family, the Ma family, and the Wu family were just the largest families in the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Bian Wushuang's defection from the Qin State is not a psychological burden at all, I can let you get up, and I can also make you collapse. This is the voice of these great families.

Therefore, Bian Wushuang knew with certainty that the wealthy clans of the Qi State who could hold on until now would never surrender to the Emperor of the Qi State easily. And all I have to do is to keep a little more strength for them.

This was also one of the important aspects of his conspiracy with Qin Feng at the beginning.

Da Ming is unwilling to face a great Qi with internal unity, that is a very terrifying thing. Sparing no effort to create civil strife in the Qi State, causing trouble for Emperor Qi, and delaying his reform process as much as possible is the result they want.

For this reason, of course Zhou Jiyun can't die.

The family clan of the Qi State has been hit hard again, if the emperor of the Qi State thinks that this is a great opportunity to weaken or even annex the family clan, I believe that he will definitely bite a hard stone, to be honest, Bian Wushuang is really looking forward to Cao Tiancheng's next move.

The winter counteroffensive is a systematic project, although the army under the command of Cheng Wuben did not participate in this operation, but Cheng Wuben did his best to ensure that Bian Wushuang launched all the logistics materials for this war, and did not set up the slightest obstacle, and even the army under his command also made a series of strategic deterrence actions so that Zhou's troops had to be vigilant and did not dare to act rashly, like the cavalry led by Jiang Shangyan, they were dispatched many times.

Under the leadership of Ning Zhiwen, the Jinghu Naval Division fought successively, and the forces of the Naval Division that the Qi army had finally established in Jinghu were almost uprooted, and in the final battle, the head of the Zhou family fled in embarrassment, and the core generals and elite soldiers of the Zhou family were killed in a battle.

The naval division completely disrupted the advantage of the Jinghu battlefield, so that Bian Wushuang could use the transportation capacity of the naval division to put his 10,000 troops, Suqian's 10,000 troops, and Luo Hu Luobao's 20,000 troops into a vigorous frontal battle, firmly containing the main force of the Zhou clan. And secretly, Bian Wushuang and Suqian personally led 20,000 elites to raid the base camp of Zhou Jiyun, the county seat of Wanzhou, and succeeded in the first battle.

Up to now, Bian Wushuang has confirmed that Ning Zhiwen, the Jinghu sailor, is the secret son buried by the Ming army, and the so-called previous stubbornness with the Qi people in the Jinghu water battle and even fell into the disadvantage for a while, but they pretended to be a gesture to force the Chu court, and also to prepare for themselves to control the Jinghu front.

As soon as he took office, he gave an order, and the sailor immediately launched a fierce offensive to defeat the Qi army's sailor in one fell swoop, and once again grasped the strategic advantage of Jinghu.

And this is also a demonstration to Cheng Wuben.

To what extent the Ming people had infiltrated the Jinghu front, Bian Wushuang didn't know, or after he completely controlled the situation in Jinghu, he could slowly find out some doorways.

Thinking of this, Bian Wushuang couldn't help but shake his head, Qin Feng is inevitably too terrifying, while fighting to the death with the Qin State, he has already eroded the Chu State to the point that it is impossible to form. Or when the state of Chu overturns, Min Ruoying will not know what happened!

Gently taking the reins of the horse, Bian Wucheng ran forward: "Commander Yang, now that Zhou Jiyun has escaped from Wanzhou City, let's go and appreciate our spoils!" ”

"That's right!" Yang Qing laughed, when he accompanied the emperor, how embarrassed he was to be driven back by the Qi people all the way, hundreds of thousands of troops were defeated, and the situation was miserable all the way, and now, they finally came back.
