Chapter 1131: Closing the Net (3)

Yuan Yiqiu wanted to learn from An Ruhai and Jiang Tao of the Chu State, but he forgot one thing, the reason why these two Chu generals were able to make such a big wave in the Qi State was that they took an unexpected lead. An Ruhai led more than 10,000 soldiers through the Luoying Mountains in the winter and entered the Qi country, and the Qi country did not expect this. What's more, at the beginning, the main forces of the Qi army were preparing to besiege and kill the hundreds of thousands of main forces of the Chu army under the command of Min Ruoying, the emperor of the Chu State, and the country was really empty. The third point is that Emperor Cao Tiancheng of Qi deliberately connived, the emperor who was determined to reform the Qi State, needed such a sharp blade to cut the weeds in the Qi State well, and this led to a vigorous battle in the annals of the two generals of the Chu State.

But Yuan Yiqiu does not have such prerequisites.

When Qin Feng heard the information that Yuan Yiqiu had crossed the river brazenly and then split his troops with Jin Shoude, he was first stunned, and then he laughed happily.

Wan County is Jing County, Wan County sandwiched in the middle, there is a tiger prison Xiongguan in front, Yuan Yiqiu this crosses the river, deep into the territory of Wan County, previously has crossed the river from the Xiushui River Bridge He Weiping's various departments immediately reversed behind him, in Yuan Yiqiu and the Qin Huang Ma Yue stationed in Lin'an built a barrier, the connection between the two departments is completely cut off, Wan County and Jing County's soldiers and horses to the middle of a clamp, Yuan Yiqiu can become a living sandwich biscuit.

Yuan Yiqiu only has 40,000 people left, although these 40,000 people are all good soldiers transferred back from the Luoying Mountains, but at this time, the Ming army has an absolute upper hand in terms of strength, and the quality of the soldiers is also higher than that of the Qin soldiers.

"The herald ordered the tiger to be released, and the starry night was combined, and immediately rushed to the county seat of Wanxian County, and guarded the city." Qin Feng stared at the map spread out in front of him and said. He didn't want to let these tens of thousands of people get into the county again, and another one to defend the city, it would be quite difficult to fight down.

"Summons the order to chase after Yu Chao, force Jin Shoude back for me, don't let him run around."

"Ordered Baoqing Zou Zheng, and the department slowly pressed to Lin'an, warning Lin'an Ma Yue of any abnormal movements."

"Order all the departments, speed up the press, and press all the Yuan Yiqiu departments to me to Changganli, east of the county seat of Wanxian County, where they are, and wipe them out!"

With Qin Feng's order issued, one messenger after another flew away, and the various departments of the Ming army were like a huge net, slowly tightening towards Yuan County, squeezing Yuan Yiqiu's department, and in Lin'an County, the sudden influx of news also made this large county town north of Yongdu instantly lose its voice.

After the tiger prison to Yongdu, is the richest area of Qin, most of the grain of Qin, it is produced in this area, in this area of hundreds of miles of the great plain, in addition to Lin'an such a big city, there is no other dangerous pass can be warn, for hundreds of years, because of Qingzhou, Tiger prison, Yongdu these places wrapped, Lin'an has never suffered from the invasion of war, but now, Qingzhou, the tiger prison has fallen into the hands of the enemy, Lin'an immediately presented naked in front of the enemy.

The stationing of 50,000 Thunder Army, although it brought the atmosphere of war to Lin'an, but also made Lin'an people feel at ease, this is the emperor's army of Great Qin, the famous Thunder Army, just look at their momentum, their equipment, it is enough to make them feel that any enemy who comes to attack can be crushed by the thunder. What's more, earlier, the 150,000 army launched an attack on the enemy in three types, which made the Lin'an people fall into their stomachs and just wait for the good news to come.

The news has finally come back, but it is definitely not good news, but bad news.

Compared with the blind optimism of ordinary people, the high-level leaders of the Qin State gathered in the city of Lin'an County were extremely uneasy. Because they have not had any contact with Nian Chunfeng and An Zishan on the left and right wings for half a month, and the letter sent back by the former military yuan Yiqiu is also vague about the situation on the left and right wings.

For experienced generals, such a thing can only happen in one situation, that is, the enemy has an absolute advantage on the battlefield, and their scouts block the entire battlefield and isolate all information.

What does this mean?

It means that the left and right wings have fallen into great danger.

Three days ago, Yuan Yiqiu's last letter finally confirmed this, Wanxian has fallen, and Nian Chunfeng has sent down 50,000 Qin troops, either captured or killed, and there are almost no survivors. The fall of the right wing means that this expedition has been a complete failure.

Compared with the fall of Nian Chunfeng's entire army, the other things Yuan Yiqiu said in the letter caused a huge turmoil in Lin'an.

First of all, Yuan Yiqiu thought that the left-wing An Zishan could not escape the extermination of the Ming army, and the battle had completely failed, and now it was not a question of whether the Ming army could be defeated, but whether the emperor could return to Yongdu safely. Therefore, he will lead his troops to launch a counterattack in the direction of Tiger Prison Pass to attract more Ming troops, so that the emperor can quickly withdraw to Yongdu.

In other words, Yuan Yiqiu thought that this battle had been completely defeated by Great Qin. Although Lin'an County is rich, but there is no danger to defend, although the county city is high, but it can not stop the footsteps of the Ming army, only by withdrawing to Yongdu, with the capital city that the Qin State has been operating continuously for hundreds of years, can it withstand the offensive of the Ming army.

But once the army withdraws to Yongdu, it will be the last piece of land in Daqin to be handed away, even if the army withdraws to Yongdu, what can it do? At that time, there was only one Yongdu left in Daqin! The complete annihilation of the 150,000-strong army can be regarded as squeezing out the last bit of flesh and blood of the Qin State.

And Yuan Yiqiu proposed that the emperor immediately promote Bian Wushuang as the king and summon Bian Wushuang back to Yongdu to preside over the military, which made all the people in Lin'an stunned, which was a higher level than the previous performance of Deng Hong when he was dying. Feng Wang, all military and political power is entrusted to Bian Wushuang, where will the royal family be?

The high-ranking officials of the Qin State who accompanied Qin Huang Ma Yue on the expedition are now silent, and the overall situation suddenly collapsed like this, no one could have expected it.

Especially since yesterday, the information that has been blocked for a long time has suddenly poured towards Lin'an County like a flood that bursts its levy. But none of the messages that came back were comforting.

People who understand military affairs in Lin'an know in their hearts that there is only one possibility for this situation to suddenly appear, that is, the war ahead has ended.

The information that came back confirmed this.

The whole army of Nian Chunfeng on the right wing was killed, and the generals below Nian Chunfeng were basically all killed in battle, and the army of 50,000 no longer existed.

The right wing of An Zishan was besieged by the Ming army, and An Zishan was beheaded by the Ming army general Gan Wei, and the 50,000 army was annihilated.

The former army Yuan Yijun led his troops to cross the Xiushui River, and the current battle situation is unknown, but just look at the old camp of the Ming army, Baoqing Battalion, slowly approaching Lin'an County, you can guess the final fate of Yuan Yiqiu.

That letter turned out to be Yuan Yiqiu's last masterpiece.

At this moment, everyone understood that Lin'an County could not hold it. Yuan Yiqiu's last struggle was nothing more than buying time for the emperor to evacuate. If you wait until Yuan Yiqiu also collapses, and most of the Ming army presses towards Lin'an County, then the retreat of Yongdu will become the moon in the mirror and the flower in the water.

Where Ma Yue's palace in Lin'an Mansion is located, almost all the things that can be smashed in the hall have been turned into pieces, Ma Yue looks like a madman, holding a long sword, and his eyes are blood-red staring at the ministers and generals who are kneeling on the ground below.

"I still have 50,000 thunderbolts, and I still have the strength to fight, and I want to fight Qin Feng to the death in Lin'an County." His angry roar echoed through the hall, but all that responded to him was the silence and silence of all the generals and ministers.

Lin'an has no danger to defend, many years of peace and security, let the military guard here, although it is a county town, but there is no condition to stick to, facing the tiger and wolf division of the Ming army, in Lin'an and the Ming army decisive battle, is undoubtedly the worst plan.

Everyone knows that this is just the emperor's anger that needs to be vented, and things have come to this point, even the emperor will not be able to overcome the general trend in the end, and retreating to Yongdu is basically the last choice.

Sure enough, in the silence of everyone, Ma Yue's roar finally fell silent, and with a depressed face, he threw away the long sword in his hand, sat down tiredly, and suddenly covered his face with both hands, and it was a pair of tears.

"I am not filial, and I have caused the country to be corrupted like this." He choked up and said, "Pass the order and prepare to withdraw to Yongdu."

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Immediately send an edict to Qinghe County, Jin Feng Bian Wushuang as the king of the town, oversee the military and political affairs of the whole country, let him immediately lead the army, and return to the king of Yongdu Qin to defend against the enemy."

Everyone knocked on the leader's decree again, and after a turn, they returned to the starting point again, knowing that this was the case, they should have accepted Deng Hong's advice before he died, but now, the last bit of Daqin's foundation has been squeezed dry, and in the face of the strong counterattack of the Ming army, will Bian Wushuang obey the order?

Once the retreat to Yongdu meant that the Great Qin Empire was left with only Liao Liao County, and the most powerful of them, Qinghe County, was still under the control of Bian Wushuang.

Bian Wushuang, will he be ordered?

Everyone was doubting the final fate of this will, but Lin'an, after the order to retreat was issued, was completely chaotic. The emperor is going to run away, and the emperor is going to abandon Lin'an.

In the city of Lin'an, countless people began to pack their packages, loaded their belongings into carriages, and prepared to flee to Yongdu with the emperor, but some people sat still, but they were previously hidden at home by the Ming merchants like guests to worship, these people, most of them are people who have close contacts with the Ming merchants, when the war began, these people have a two-sided bet, while diligently offering grain and grass to the Qin State, while secretly hiding the Ming merchants who were ordered by the Qin Emperor to be arrested for emergencies, now, Finally it works. With these people, they don't have to worry about being liquidated by the Ming people in the future, and these merchants go back and forth between the Qin and Ming countries, and they know more about the policies of the Ming people than ordinary people.

The main force of the Ming army has not yet crossed the Xiushui River, and Lin'an County is already in chaos.
