Chapter 556: Withdrawal and Looting
On April 18, 430 of the Great Jin Dynasty, Liu Ji, who had become the governor of the northern part of the Great Jin Dynasty, personally led the four elite troops of the Tiger Ben Army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the White Horse Congyi and the Wei Wushu, and set out from Shangyuan City and rushed to the battlefields of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou.
Now Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, which are being invaded by the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army, there are only four local forces left, including Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, Shen Zitong, the Taishou of Xiongyi County, Xiangzhou, Bimo, the pastor of Fuzhou, and Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, Fuzhou.
After the withdrawal of the Southeast Xiang Army from Fuzhou, the Qingyi nationality was the main East Barbarian Coalition Army, and the offensive was wave after wave, if the Broken Army was not invited into Fuzhou to resist the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army, the two of them would not be able to keep their territory and army, and even their own and their families' lives would be difficult to protect.
And Xiangzhou Prefecture Mu Feng Ziheng and Xiangzhou Xiongyi County Taishou Shen Zitong are not handed, Wang Ben, the commander of the Guards Corps of the Broken Army who has been leading troops in Xiangzhou to fight against the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army, said bluntly to Feng Ziheng and Shen Zitong that if the two are unwilling to hand over the territory of Xiangzhou, the Broken Army will definitely not be reluctant, but the Broken Army in Xiangzhou will leave immediately, since Xiangzhou is unwilling to fall under the jurisdiction of the Broken Army, then the Broken Army has no obligation to help Xiangzhou resist the Eastern Barbarian Alliance.
Now the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army in Xiangzhou is almost completely resisting by the Broken Army on its own, once the Broken Army leaves Xiangzhou, then only the troops of the State Pastor Feng Ziheng and Xiongyi County Taishou Shen Zitong are left in Xiangzhou, Feng Ziheng and Shen Zitong know very well that the hundreds of thousands of troops temporarily put together by the two of them cannot resist the front of the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army at all, and they have no choice but to promise to let the Broken Army enter Xiangzhou.
In addition, Liu Ji did not do very much, and the Broken Capture Army promised the above four people that they could still hold the position of state pastor or taishou, but they had to hand over the army, which was also an important reason why Feng Ziheng, the governor of Xiangzhou, Shen Zitong, the Taishou of Xiongyi County, Xiangzhou, Bimo, the pastor of Fuzhou, and Jiang Jian, the Taishou of Qinghua County, Fuzhou, were quite happy to hand over the territory and the army.
The statements of the two state pastors and the two taishou of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou left only one problem to deal with when the Broken Army annexed Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, that is, the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army that was invading these two states.
In order to drive the Dongban Coalition Army, which is dominated by the Qingyi people, back to the 100,000 mountains as soon as possible, Liu Ji decided to personally lead four elite troops to the battlefields of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, and at the same time, a large number of troops of the Broken Army are also rushing to or have entered Xiangzhou and Fuzhou.
In the process of annexing Pizhou and Qinzhou, the Broken Army had incorporated more than 700,000 troops from the two states, and these more than 700,000 troops, plus some garrison troops in Qianzhou, as well as generals and soldiers drawn from other units of the Broken Army, according to Liu Ji's order, two cavalry brigades and 18 infantry brigades were newly formed, of which two cavalry brigades and 10 infantry brigades had already rushed to the battlefields of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou respectively.
The two newly formed cavalry brigades and eighteen infantry brigades were all part of the establishment of the home army for the time being.
In order to stabilize the situation in Fuzhou, the Xuanjia soldiers, the Modao soldiers and the two infantry brigades of the local army in Qinzhou had already entered Fuzhou when Liu Ji led the four elite troops to leave Shangyuan City.
Now the Dongban Coalition Army, dominated by the Qingyi people, has captured the four counties of Fuzhou, and the primary task of the two infantry brigades of Xuanjia Soldiers, Modao Soldiers and Native Legion is to keep the remaining cities and three counties in Fuzhou and block the new round of offensive launched by the Dongban Coalition Army.
In the Taishou Mansion of Qianyang City, the county capital of Hedong County, Xiangzhou, Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, said to the Guxi Tusi Guoji Wusa with a gloomy face: "Guoji Tusi, this king has told you several times, I hope you can restrain the army of your Guxi tribe, don't burn and loot the people of the Jin Kingdom, our allied forces of all ethnic groups sent troops to the Jin Kingdom this time, the purpose is not to burn and loot!" ”
Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa said with some embarrassment on his face: "King Wumeng, it is true that in the recent battle with the Broken Army, our Guxi Clan's army has suffered too many casualties, if you don't let the warriors vent, our Guxi Clan's army will collapse directly." ”
Now the Dongban Coalition Army, which is dominated by the Qingyi people, has confronted the Dongban Coalition Army in Luotang County, the westernmost part of Hedong County, Xiangzhou, for more than two months, during which the two sides have fought many times, although they have won and lost each other, but relatively speaking, the losses of the Dongban Coalition Army are much greater, so far, the total loss of the Dongban Coalition Army in Luotang County has exceeded 350,000, and the loss of the Broken Army is only more than 100,000.
Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, said coldly: "Guoji Tusi, the losses of our Qingyi tribe are much higher than those of your Guxi tribe, if you follow the logic of your Guxi tribe, this king should also order the warriors of the Qingyi tribe to start burning and looting?" ”
Guxi Clan Tusi Guo Jiwusa coughed and said: "King Wumeng rest assured, the local division will immediately issue an order to all the Guxi warriors, whoever dares to rob the people of the Jin country again, the local division will ask for whose head!" ”
Hearing Guxi Tusi Guoji Wusa say this, the face of Wumeng Ergu, the western king of the Qingyi tribe, suddenly softened, "Guoji Tusi, our Qingyi people have obtained accurate information, the Jin court has just established the Northern Metropolitan Governor's Office, and now Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, which are being attacked by the coalition forces of our various ethnic groups, are all under the jurisdiction of the Northern Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of the Jin Kingdom, and the post of the Northern Metropolitan Governor of the Jin Kingdom was handed over to Liu Ji, the commander of the Broken Army, by the Jin Imperial Court. ”
Then Umun Ergu sighed and said: "Now a large number of troops of the Broken Army are rushing to Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, judging from the situation of fighting with the Broken Army in the past two months, our Qingyi tribe's plan to capture Xiangzhou and Fuzhou of the Jin State should be impossible to realize, and this king does not want to burn and loot the people of the Jin Kingdom because of the burning and looting of the people of the Jin Kingdom by the army of our various ethnic groups, so that the Broken Army and our armies of all ethnic groups will become an endless situation." ”
Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa immediately frowned and said: "King Wumeng, although the combat effectiveness of the Broken Army is very strong, the combat effectiveness of our armies of all ethnic groups is not bad, and the Qingyi Clan has millions of warriors, is it possible that our armies of various ethnic groups have retreated back to the 100,000 mountains like this?" ”
Wumeng Ergu sighed and said: "Although our Qingyi tribe can gather millions of elite troops, but don't forget that there are still Bai Miao tribes in the 100,000 mountains, it is impossible for our Qing Yi people to put all their troops into the battlefield of the Jin Kingdom. ”
Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa then said: "King Wumeng, didn't you say that Li Jinbao, the Tusi of the Bai Miao tribe, was suddenly seriously ill and was unconscious? Do the Bai Miao still have the energy to find trouble with the Qing Yi people? ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Wumeng Ergu's eyes and said: "This king originally felt that the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao was too sick this time, early or late, just when our Qing Yi tribe sent troops to the Jin Kingdom, the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao suddenly fell ill, and now our Qing Yi tribe in the Bai Miao tribe has sent back the news, Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao is not sick at all, he is pretending, the purpose is to let our Qing Yi people can rest assured and boldly invade the Jin country, and fight with the Jin army. Then the Bai Miao took advantage of the weakness of our Qing Yi to launch an attack on our Qing Yi people. ”
Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa exclaimed, "What? Is the illness of Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao faked? What is the opinion of Umeng Toast? Let the armies of all ethnic groups immediately withdraw from Xiangzhou and Fuzhou? ”
Umeng Ergu shook his head and said: "Abba has not yet sent an order to retreat, but it has already made the armies of our various tribes in Xiangzhou and Fuzhou shrink the defense line and stop launching an offensive in the hinterland of Xiangzhou and Fuzhou. ”
Just when a large number of troops of the Broken Army rushed to Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, in the Qingyi Tusi Mansion in Pingliang City, among the 100,000 mountains, the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago said in a deep voice to his henchman Nanrong Yulong: "Mr. Nanrong, do you think our Qingyi people should withdraw their troops from Xiangzhou and Fuzhou in the Jin Kingdom?" ”
Nanrong Yulong sighed and said: "Lord Tusi, I have always disapproved of sending troops to the Jin Kingdom, and the murderers who robbed the two princesses of Wumeng Isa and Wumeng Gemeng are not necessarily from the Jin Kingdom, and even if the murderer is from the Jin Kingdom, it should have nothing to do with the Jin Imperial Court." ”
Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago waved his hand and said: "Now it is useless to say that, now the army of our Qingyi tribe and various affiliated ethnic groups has captured the territory of two counties in Xiangzhou of the Jin Kingdom, and even captured the territory of four counties in Fuzhou of the Jin Kingdom, so that the army can retreat to the 100,000 mountains, and the local division is really a little unwilling in his heart." ”
In fact, since the Qingyi Tusi Wumeng Ago, since he learned that the illness of the Bai Miao Tusi Li Jinbao was faked, he couldn't help but suspect that his two baby daughters were robbed, and they had nothing to do with the Bai Miao tribe, but now there is no evidence in the hands of Wumeng Ago.
Nanrong Yulong groaned and said: "Lord Tusi, since it has been found out that the Miao Tusi Li Jinbao is pretending to be sick this time, and has obtained the information that the Bai Miao people are hoarding grain and grass, it shows that the Bai Miao people are likely to have a conspiracy against our Qingyi people, and now that the Jin court has handed over Xiangzhou and Fuzhou to the jurisdiction of the Broken Army, the Broken Army will definitely not be willing for our Qing Yi to occupy Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, if our Qing Yi army still stays in Xiangzhou and Fuzhou, it will definitely face a life-and-death battle with the Broken Army." ”
Tusi Wumeng Aguo sighed and said: "Originally, I wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to annex some of the land and population of the Jin Kingdom, it seems that the land is unlikely, so let our Qingyi army's army in Xiangzhou and Fuzhou rob some more of the population and wealth of the Jin Kingdom and withdraw to the 100,000 mountains!" ”
As soon as Nanrong Yulong heard what Tusi Wumeng Aguo meant, he immediately said in shock: "Lord Tusi, once our Qingyi army robs the population of the Jin Kingdom and loots the wealth of the Jin people, it will inevitably form a mortal enmity with the Broken Army, so ......"
Before Nanrong Yulong's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Tusi Wumeng Ago's wave of his hand, "What can you do if you become a mortal enemy with the Broken Army!" The local division didn't believe it, and the Broken Army dared to send troops into the 100,000 mountains to trouble our Qingyi tribe! ”
Nanrong Yulong saw Tusi Wumeng Aguo's determined face, so he didn't say anything to persuade him, but Nanrong Yulong had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
Then Tusi Wumeng Aguo hesitated for a moment and asked Nanrong Yulong: "Mr. Nanrong, do you say that the murderer who robbed Wumeng Isa and Wumeng is related to the Bai Miao clan?" ”
Nanrong Yulong pondered for a moment and said: "Lord Tusi, to be honest, I have always suspected that the two princesses were robbed, and the Bai Miao clan was the real culprit behind the scenes, but I couldn't find the slightest evidence. ”
Tusi Wumeng Aguo gritted his teeth and said: "If it is really the Bai Miao tribe who did it, the local division must make the Bai Miao tribe look good this time!" ”
Nanrong Yulong immediately suggested: "Lord Tusi, we should let the fine work of the Bai Miao tribe be placed, and do our best to find the whereabouts of the two princesses in the area controlled by the Bai Miao tribe. ”
Tusi Wumeng Ago nodded and said: "The local division also thinks so, and now it seems that Umeng Isa and Umeng were robbed, and the suspicion of the Bai Miao clan is the greatest." ”
After receiving his father's order, Wumeng Ergu, the king of the western Qing Yi tribe, reluctantly said to the generals of all the tribes under his command: "It seems that our Qing Yi tribe will not be able to avoid forming a mortal enemy with the Broken Army!" ”
Guxi Tusi Guo Jiwusa said excitedly: "King Wumeng rest assured, as long as our army of all ethnic groups retreats into the 100,000 mountains, the army of all ethnic groups will have no way to take our army of all ethnic groups, if the troops of the army dare to enter the 100,000 mountains, then they will never think of it, fighting in the mountains, the army of our various ethnic groups is the expert!" ”
Wumeng Ergu sighed: "Since it is Abba's order, then we can only carry it out, I hope this order will not make our Qingyi people regret it." ”
Liu Ji took the four elite troops of the Tiger Ben Army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the White Horse Congyi and the Wei Wushu, and was still on the way to Xiangzhou and Fuzhou when he received the news of the withdrawal of the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army.
However, Liu Ji's face did not show any smile, because the Eastern Barbarian Coalition Army, dominated by the Qingyi people, almost ransacked all the captured towns when they retreated, and three or four million people of the Jin Kingdom were forcibly escorted to the 100,000 mountains by the Eastern Barbarian army, and hundreds of thousands of Jin people were slaughtered in the sack of the Eastern Barbarian Army.
