Chapter 557: Digging a Pit Together
That night, Luo Jiuzhong took his eldest son Luo Longzuo to the largest courtyard in Shaxiba Tusi Manor.
Today's courtyard, of course, has become the place where Wu Zhiwang stays.
It was late at night, and it was quiet all around, but Wu Zhiwang still wrote under the lamp and did not sleep.
Hearing that Wang Jianguo came to report that Shaxi Tusi Luo Jiuzhong came to see him again, Wu Zhiwang thought about it and immediately agreed, and asked people to invite Qin Liangyu and Qin Gongming to come over.
"Lord Shilang, now Mu Oge doesn't know that my Shaxi Luo clan abandoned the secret and surrendered to the imperial court, the previous humble post has sent people to Mu Oge twice to ask for help, if we send someone to go tonight or tomorrow, I believe that Mu Oge will not sit idly by and watch Shaxi Dam fall into the hands of the imperial court, and will definitely send troops to help!
"If the reinforcements sent by Muog come from the south, they will go through the Wuli Dam! If you come from the west, you must pass through the Hongtu River!
"Whether it's Wuliba or Hongtu River, it's an excellent place for ambush, and it's all within my Shaxi Luo clan's territory!
"Once it is determined where Mu Og's reinforcements are coming from, my lord and I will lead the officers and troops to lay an ambush, even if the army led by Yu Chongming and An Bangyan will not be able to escape the annihilation of the whole army!"
After Luo Jiuzhong surrendered, he made up his mind.
Now the strength of the official army is by no means something that he Shaxi Luo can resist, since this is the case, it is better to follow the court with all his heart, and the court eats meat, how can he also give Shaxi Luo a little soup to drink.
Now that you have made up your mind, you must make meritorious service as soon as possible, and you must make a great contribution that is enough to be rewarded by the imperial court.
After thinking about it, Luo Jiuzhong and his son Luo Longzuo came up with such an idea.
Since he had already sent two groups of messengers to Muorg asking for help, wouldn't it be a godsend to send a messenger to Muorg before the news of Luo's surrender spread, and deceive An Bangyan or Extravagant Chongming to lead troops to help, and give him a way to invite the king to enter the urn and close the door and beat the dogs? !
As soon as Luo Jiuzhong's thoughts came out, Wu Zhiwang and Qin Liangyu's eyes lit up.
Shaxi Luo's Tusi can continue for hundreds of years without dying in the continuous war, especially in the treacherous Shuixi region, where the weak eat the strong, and there is indeed a reason for his immortality.
"Wuli Dam in the south, don't need to think about it! Because Shuixi City can't send reinforcements!
Wu Zhiwang's words made Luo Jiuzhong startled, and then he quickly felt glad in his heart for his choice to understand current affairs, because the reinforcement he was looking forward to, the nearest one, was the Anlong Department of Shuixi City.
Luo Jiuzhong was rejoicing, and heard Wu Zhiwang say, "Luo Inspector, who do you want to send?" ”
Although Luo Jiuzhong said that he was the head of the Shaxi Luo family, and he was the head of the Tusi within a radius of 100 miles on both sides of the Lengshui River in the Shaxi Dam area, he was just a sesame mung bean inspection department in the official product sequence of the Ming Dynasty.
This can be regarded as one of the reasons why he rebelled with An Bangyan during the Apocalypse.
However, for such a local official inspection, Wu Zhiwang does not have any meaning of looking down on it, although the inspection department is inspecting the official position is small, but it is in the area of Shuixi Shaxi Dam, but it is also a hundred miles of "the world has its land, the world commands its soldiers, and the world manages its people"!
When Luo Jiuzhong heard this, he immediately said: "Xiaguan's own brother has now gone to Mu Oge for help, in order to appear that the matter is very important, this time Xiaguan wants to send his eldest son Luo Longzuo to go in person!" ”
After saying this, Luo Jiuzhong looked at Wu Zhiwang.
Wu Zhiwang didn't answer him immediately, but looked sideways at Qin Liangyu.
After all, Qin Liangyu led the army to fight against the Yi people in Shuixi for many years, and the thoughts of these Yi people must be accurately grasped by the outsider from Shaanxi.
Qin Liangyu didn't let Wu Zhiwang wait longer, and quickly nodded.
Because she wasn't worried that Luo Jiuzhong would lie to her at all, and she wasn't worried that Luo Jiuzhong's eldest son would never come back.
In the face of naked strength, all intrigues and tricks are meaningless.
Wu Zhiwang saw Qin Liangyu nodding, and then said, "In that case, without further ado, send your eldest son to Dafang tonight!" ”
After saying this, Wu Zhiwang looked at Luo Jiuzhong and Luo Longzuo and said: "Whether it is Wuliba in the south or Hongtuchuan in the west, the Shaxi Yi soldiers stationed there, knowing that your father and son have surrendered, must all be recalled, and if they go to someone who does not know, this battle must be foolproof!" ”
Luo Jiuzhong's plan to invite you into the urn was accepted and arranged by Wu Zhiwang that night.
Luo Longzuo rode west alone overnight, arrived at the Hongtu River forty miles west of Shaxi Dam, and took some of the Shaxi Yi soldiers on the watchtower of the Hongtu River Zexi Guanzhai Tower, and rushed all the way to Dafang.
And that night, Wu Zhiwang also finished writing the military report in the direction of Shaxi Dam, and sent people to Huangshadu to Yachi Station.
The reason why Wu Zhiwang set up the battlefield of ambushing the reinforcements of Hao'an in Hongtuchuan without thinking much about it is because he has never broken off contact with Zhu Xieyuan.
Shuixi City is on the post road of Longchang Jiuyi, and it is closer than Shaxiba to Dafang Muoge Mountain City.
Now that Zhu Xieyuan personally led the main force of the official army to cross the Yachi River and attack Shuixi City, then Shuixi City would not be able to send any reinforcements at all.
Coupled with the military report from Hou Liangzhu and Lin Zhaoding who captured Zhen~Xiong~Mansion after joining forces and marching into Bijieyi, Wu Zhiwang quickly concluded that it was impossible to send reinforcements in the direction of Shuixi City, nearly two hundred miles south of Shaxiba.
If An Bangyan was worried that the fall of Shaxiba would directly threaten the northeastern defense of Muorg Mountain City, then he could only mobilize reinforcements from the direction of Dafang or Chishui.
And the reinforcements in the direction of Chishui are more than 10,000 Yongning Tusi Yi soldiers led by the brothers of Luxury Chongming and Chonghui.
This luxurious Yi soldier is now basically in a state of "idle" rest.
Because when Hou Liangzhu led the main force of the Sichuan army to the south, only 3,000 troops were left to garrison Linzhou.
This official army is being led by Xu Ruke, who participated in the politics of Sichuan, Liu Kexun, deputy envoy of the eastern Sichuan military garrison, and Deng Xi, deputy commander-in-chief of Sichuan, to gather the people of the Yi, Han, Miao, Tu and other ethnic groups under the jurisdiction of the former Yongning Xuanfu Division, and restore the military tun of Yongningwei and the Mintun of the Xuyong Military Grain Department.
In addition, Han Chinese refugees were recruited from all over eastern Sichuan, and more military and civilian settlements were established in the Yongning Tusi area, and measures to reform the land and return to the river were promoted.
Because of this, Deng Xi, the deputy commander-in-chief who had the intention to make progress and make meritorious contributions, had no choice but to give up his plan to attack the core of Shuixi in the south, and took the officers and troops under his command to honestly follow Xu Ruke, who participated in the politics of Sichuan, and did the work of recruiting displaced people, dividing the land and land, and changing the land to return to the river on the territory of the luxury family.
The two brothers led an army of 15,000 people to Datunchang near Chishui, the purpose of which was to prevent the main force of the Sichuan army led by Hou Liangzhu from crossing the Chishui River to the south and attacking Shuixi.
But soon after he led his army north, he found that Hou Liangzhu had no intention of attacking Shuixi from the Chishui River, but took the main force to take a long road to attack the town ~ Xiong ~ Mansion.
Because after the Hao brothers returned to the jurisdiction of the Yongning Xuanfu Division, they found that the Yi people, Miao people and other serfs who originally supported the Tusi system of the luxury family in the territory all rose up against them, either refused to belong and scattered in all directions, or took up arms to fight the Yongning Yi soldiers who came back.
This made Yu Chongming, who had always been arrogant and wanted to establish the Great Liang State as the king of the Yongning Xuanfu Division, feel a blow in his heart.
Without the original land and people of Yongning Xuanfu Division, what country will you build and what kind of king will you call your extravagant family?
Not to mention conquering the entire Sichuan and Yunnan, and then dominating the southwest, sharing the world equally with the Zhu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
This idea, for him, is becoming more and more out of reach.
Suddenly a little disheartened, Fu Chongming, did not lead his demoralized army to fight Lin Zhou, but stationed troops in the area of Datunchang on the south bank of the Chishui River to rest the army.
Datunchang used to have a guard of the imperial court, called Chishui Wei Baisa Thousand Households, and the hereditary Thousand Households of the Thousand Households were the local Tusi heads.
Of course, at this time, no one has mentioned the Baisa Thousand Households of the Imperial Court, and in the eyes of the Yi people, there is only a large tunchang where different villages can trade with each other.
And the Tusi head of this generation of Datunchang is Anchi, a side branch of the An family who has been married and befriended by the luxury family for generations.
The brothers of Luxury Chongming and Luxury Chonghui came with a large army, and lived in the Datun Tusi Manor of Anchi, while sending groups of sentry spies to establish a stronghold on the north bank of the Chishui River to inquire about the news and guard against the sudden attack of the Sichuan army.
On the other hand, Luxury Chongming also sent people everywhere to capture batch after batch of Yi girls around Datun Tusi Manor, with their nearly sixty years old, they were pampered day and night, crazy to create people, hoping to create another heir for themselves, and they didn't have much heart to go north to capture Linzhou.
In this way, the northern line of the Shuixian clan's jurisdiction became the most peaceful place.
