Chapter 526: Defensive Depth
When Yang Yi finally figured out what was going on and rushed to find Lu Yuanliang to show his way, Lu Yuanliang had already left Tongzhou City and went to the eastern front to set up defenses, preparing to deal with Yang Jie's counterattack by the Kyoto army.
"The black face is finished singing to you, you can do it yourself, good people." These are the words that Lu Yuanliang left to Yang Yi.
Yang Yi was very disappointed, as if he had mustered up all his strength to make a round, but he just pounced.
There is no trouble in Tongzhou, Lu Yuanliang deterred Hua Ying and a group of old-fashioned officials in Tongzhou, and the dark messenger has secretly cleared out all the people who have objections, all Yang Yi can do is to stand up and say something to listen to, so that the rest of the generals and soldiers and civilians in Tongzhou can settle down.
On the other side, Lu Yuanliang moved very quickly, and within three days of capturing Tongzhou City, the defensive line in the east had been fully rolled out, and at this time, Yang Jie's 20,000 Kyoto troops had just arrived.
The attack of the Kyoto army did not last long, and after several tentative attacks were repelled by the Shu army, Yang Jie ordered the Kyoto army to withdraw to the territory of Gyeongju to build fortifications, and it seemed that it would not come again in a short time
In fact, Yang Jie and Yang Yi's initial strategic goals were the same, they wanted to occupy Tongzhou, a buffer land between Guanzhong and Daguang, but they didn't want to invest too much energy, let alone create a war quagmire in Tongzhou and let themselves be caught in it.
And at the same time that the Shu army captured the Tongzhou capital, although the Jiangnan of the Shu army alliance did not move, but Wang Fei, the general of the northern annexed state, seemed to have a spirit with Yang Yixin, and led more than 15,000 merger states to be stationed in the north of the state, across the Xiangshan mountain range and Kyoto Diqing, Yang Jie had to order to strengthen the northern line of defense to prevent Wang Feijiang from raiding south.
Therefore, no matter how Zhu Qingxian, who fled to Kyoto Diqing alone, cried outside the palace day and night, Yang Jie did not want or dared to launch a full-scale attack on Tongzhou, everyone knew that the Shu army had conquered the entire Tongzhou, and it was definitely not the time for the imperial capital to fight back at this time.
At this point, the overall situation of the war in Tongzhou has basically been decided, the Shu army adheres to the style of quick battle and quick victory in the past, and conquers this southwest fortress of Daguang in just half a month, and the northeast defense line of Shuzhong has once again advanced to the Central Plains, and the ring defense front composed of Wenzhou, Tongzhou and Qinzhou is unbreakable.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that Yang Yi entered the Tongzhou capital, and Shuzhong finally became the hinterland of Yang Yi's entire power from a strategic position, that is, the solidity of defense in depth in military terms.
In other words, in the past, Shuzhong was a piece of meatball, which could be bitten at any time and cause injuries to the muscles and bones, but now, the outside of the meatball in Shuzhong has been successfully wrapped in a layer of dumpling skin, and if you want to eat this piece of meat filling, you must peel off the dough.
In order to make this dumpling wrapper wrapped in meat fillings stronger, Yang Yi followed Lu Yuanliang's advice and established a set of chain defense systems on the circular defense line composed of several important passes such as Wenzhou, Tongzhou, Qinzhou and Jianchong Pass.
As the early summer approached, the acquaintances on the treetops began to sing, and the withered trees had already flourished.
The temperature in the Tongzhou Mansion is obviously rising much faster than in Shuzhong, and before April arrived, Yang Yi was already wearing a thin shirt and looking up at the sky in the Tongzhou Assassin's Mansion.
It stands to reason that this Tongzhou Thorn Mansion is Hua Chang's mansion, and the owner should be Hua Ying, but Hua Ying is very interested, and after Yang Yi named him the male uncle of Shujiang County, he led his family to move to Shuzhong, and generously handed over the Thorn History Mansion to Yang Yi for public use.
Of course Yang Yi will not be polite to him, this kind of surrendered princes themselves are a hot potato, killing is chilling, not killing is easy to bury the root of the curse, Hua Ying moved his family to Shuzhong and gave all the family business in the same state to Yang Yi, which is to show that he will not have anything to do with the same state, let alone rebel.
Yang Yi looked at the huge courtyard of the Thorn History Mansion, and said with some resentment: "Damn, I thought that Yu Wenmang's mansion was luxurious enough, but I didn't expect this Hua Chang to be even worse, look at this rockery and fake water, compared to here, how is Lao Tzu's Shu Wang's Mansion like a private house?" ”
Monkey Jian'er sat cross-legged beside Yang Yi and said with a smile: "Isn't that Your Highness not happy yourself, if you are willing, it is estimated that our palace can be repaired like the palace, and it is majestic." ”
Yang Yi kicked the monkey tip and said, "What's the use of living in a big house?" Stability is the real thing. ”
Monkey Jian'er pouted unconvinced and said, "What you said about our palace is like a private house, why did you kick me." ”
"I call it emotion, and you call it disgust." Yang Yidao.
Monkey Jian'er said aggrievedly: "I don't dislike it, besides, where do I dare..."
Yang Yi scolded: "After I go back, I will find your mansion to live in, live in Lao Tzu's house every day, cheat to eat and drink, are you still energetic?" ”
Hearing this, Monkey Jian'er hurriedly laughed and said: "Your Highness, you are a little stingy, me and Tie Niu are your generals, naturally we have to follow you in life and death, if you want to say that you eat a lot of food, it is Tie Niu, and if you want to catch him, you have to catch him first." ”
Yang Yi fanned his collar, raised a slight cool breeze to make himself feel a little more comfortable, and said, "Could it be that you and Tie Niu married your mother-in-law and gave birth to a baby, and you still stay in the mansion every day?" You have to have a home, don't you? ”
Monkey Jian'er thought about it, and suddenly said with a smile: "The world is uneven, how can it be home." ”
"Roll the calves!" Yang Yi almost died of anger, originally a heroic sentence, but when he came out of the monkey's mouth, it felt like ivory spit out of a dog's mouth.
Yang Yi smiled and said angrily: "If you want to say this, it is also Lao Tzu who said, is it your turn?" ”
"The son of the world is almost a year old." Monkey Jian'er laughed.
Yang Yi glared at Monkey Jian'er, and said in a soothing tone: "You and Tie Niu are not small, what is the matter with drilling into the powder building all day long?" Become a good family, give birth to a baby and leave a seed, otherwise it will be too late to regret it if it hangs on the battlefield one day. ”
The monkey smiled but didn't speak.
Yang Yi asked, "What's the matter, there is a girl in the picture?" ”
The monkey moved his face awkwardly, and was about to speak, when suddenly a rush of footsteps came from outside the door.
Yang Yi looked up and saw that Hu Shou was already coming towards him.
"Your Highness, someone has come to the Valley of Flowers."
"Valley of Flowers?" Yang Yi's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Is it the Yuntang Fairy?" ”
Hu Shou shook his head and said, "No, it's an elder in Blossom Valley, called Fengyan Pavilion." ”
Hearing this, Yang Yi was quite disappointed, but he still got up and said, "Please wait in the front hall for Elder Feng, I will come immediately." ”
