PS: The second chapter is in the evening

Gaoyucheng is not an area that is not focused on business, it is not as tall as the wall of Xiaqiu, and it does not have the geographical advantage of Yuncheng, so it was broken by the Qi army, and the survivors fled to Yuncheng. When Zhao Wuxian led the army to arrive, the scene was only charred and blackened ruins and dead corpses everywhere, and the sky was full of flying birds, most of them were blue, they flapped their wings and circled over the tall fish, looking up, the size was no different from that of a fly.

The horse's hooves fell on the ruins, but Zhao Wuxian's heart was cloudy. When he was in the country of Lu, he had passed by here countless times, and every time he would go in and sit.

Gao Yuzai's name is Yu Sui, and he is the first doctor to show kindness to him after Zhao Wuxian entered Lu and invited him to a banquet.

After Zhao Wuxian took charge of the Lu State, he intended to change a place for him to be a doctor, but Yu Sui was a local and did not want to leave the small place of Gaoyu, preferring not to be a doctor, and to be the Zuo Sima of Yuncheng, who was resident in Gaoyu.

He unfortunately died, and when the Qi army attacked, he fought hard, and after the city was broken, he was naturally ruthlessly disposed of.

In the east of Gaoyu City, Zhao Wuxian saw Yu Sui's grave......

"The corpse was originally hung upside down on the city tower by the Qi people, the feet were tied by ropes, and the head was evil, and the Qi army retreated ten days ago, and we only restrained Yu Sima, and the corpse had been ravaged to the point that it was not visible......"

According to the few remaining officials of Gao Yu's fruits, when they returned, most of Yusui's body had been gnawed by crows and wild dogs, his throat and chest had been torn alive, his internal organs and torn strips of flesh were dangling in the opening of his abdomen, and the bones were scattered several feet away, cracked and broken, full of bite marks, and the flesh on it had already been eaten clean.

It was not only Yusui who was killed, but perhaps it was Guoxia's reprimand, Yangsheng did not destroy the civilians as badly as before after leaving Xiaqiu, but he turned his revenge on the local officials. Every village official and pavilion chief who was loyal to the shogunate and resisted to the end was captured and poisoned, and the eastern part of the castle was full of new graves.

Wuxian paid tribute to them, and commanded: "These people are all Lu countries, they are the heroes of the Zhao family, they will not die in vain, bury them, and sympathize with their families." ”

"Many of the family members of the bureaucrats were also killed when the city was broken, and the Qi people and the doctor Lu Guo who brought them here said proudly, this is the end of doing things for the Zhao family......" I don't know who muttered.

The Qi army was mixed with many Lu Guo doctors who had been expelled by Zhao Wuxian, and these homecoming groups gathered around Yangsheng and did all kinds of evil.

Zhao Wuxian was silent, he forced himself to look at a simple mound of mounds, and then another, and then another, and at the same time kept telling himself to be as hard as iron, but as everyone knows, his heart has been filled with anger.

"General, marching and fighting, the most taboo is to raise the division because of anger." Ji Ran appeared at the right time and persuaded Zhao Wuxian. Dead people in the war are not new in Xin Wenzi's eyes, many years ago in the Wu Shi Ying, and in the Song Rebellion, similar things happened over and over again, unless the world is set to be one, otherwise this situation is unavoidable, it will happen to the enemy, and it will also happen in your own territory.

He said quietly: "Xilu is my territory, but I can't protect the territory and the people. It's my fault, in the Jin Kingdom, in the Wei Land for too long, the Qi people are so mad...... Returning the other way to the other, I will let Yang Sheng, let Qi Guo regret today's move! ”

He pressed his sword and left, and the next day, the soldiers who witnessed all this couldn't help but speed up their pace, and the next stop was Yuncheng.

……

Yuncheng was the nominal residence of the Zhao Wuxian shogunate, where the river network was vertical and horizontal, and the climate was modest, which was similar to the climate of Huainan in later generations. After the excavation of the canal connecting Pushui and Jishui, as well as many ditches, rice was planted here, as Zhao Wuxian wished, and the local economy was booming and extremely prosperous, so that there was no longer a need to flee to Onozawa to survive as before.

But now it was April and May, and it was supposed to be the time when the rice flowers were fragrant, but Siye was empty, and it seemed that he had returned to the withered state when Zhao Wuxian first passed here. Groups of war refugees who helped the old and the young walked hobbled on the road, or sat on the roadside to rest, and when they saw Zhao Wuxian's banner, they all bowed down on the roadside, wept bitterly, and said that the general had finally returned.

Yuncheng was still in the hands of the Zhao army, and in order to deal with the war of the Jin Kingdom, the Thai soldiers here were emptied. From June last year to the present, Xilu has been attacked several times by the Qi people in almost a year, especially the spring offensive launched by Guoxia himself this year, and it has rushed all the way to Yuncheng.

Tiger will fight against 20,000 people with thousands of people in Yuncheng, he is not a famous general in the world, he can only ensure that important cities are not lost, and during this period, he also attacked and annihilated small units of Qi people many times, which can be called meritorious, but when Zhao Wuxian returned, he was ashamed to plead guilty.

"The sin is in the rest, not in the second and third sons, Sima has worked hard this year." Zhao Wuxian helped him up and asked, "How many soldiers are there in Yuncheng who can fight?" ”

"After the general transferred half of the county soldiers, there were more than 3,000 left, hundreds of losses in previous battles, and there was still one division."

Tiger Hui's eyes lit up: "Lord, are you going to fight a decisive battle?" The servants were afraid of rashly attacking and losing Yuncheng, so they could only sit back and watch the Qi people show off their might outside the city, they had already been aggrieved enough, and the ministers were willing to be the vanguard! ”

"The forward has been selected, and you will lead half of the county soldiers into the rear army, and when our army goes east to find Qi people for a decisive battle, the rear army will block the first line of Jishui, so that the Qi army cannot escape alone!"

At Yuncheng, the Zhao army joined up with the Song army, which was advancing along the eastern bank of Pushui. Now is the time when the Zhao family asks for help from the Song State, and when they meet in Yuncheng, Le Wei tentatively proposed, since Cao Jun is expelled, can the Song State annex Cao State and Taoqiu?

Zhao Wuxian did not agree, nor did he refuse, but decided with the word "drag", saying that the situation in Taoqiu was complicated, and it would be discussed after this battle, so as not to disappoint the Song people and passively participate in the war.

After the two armies were put together, the pennants were unfurled, and 30,000 people camped all over the world, and the cost of eating horses and chewing was not small. Yuncheng originally had three years of food reserves, but most of it was consumed during the war, which was only enough to supply them during their stay. Therefore, in the future, the supply of the army will have to rely on Zigong to transport grain from Taoqiu and send it to the front line through Jishui and Dayozawa.

According to previous information, because of the surrender of Yu County, a big hole was opened in the north of the Lu State, and the Qi army of Mount Tai and Dong'e and Pingyin entered from there and entered the Zhu and Si River basins in the hinterland of the Lu State. Now that it is still hovering there after converging with Guoxia, the Zhao and Song coalition forces have passed, and they can just meet Zheng!

This was what had been expected, but when the meeting in front of the enemy was reconvening, the scouts who had gone east brought back messengers from Zhongdu.

The visitor was Kan Zhi, who had stayed there after organizing the evacuation of the Taoqiu Iron Workshop a few months earlier, and was overjoyed to learn of the return of the Zhao army, so he volunteered to come.

I haven't seen him for a year, Kan Zhi was a little excited, he gave a heavy salute to Zhao Wuxian, glanced at the familiar plan, and then hurriedly said: "Lord, the Qi army has learned that the Zhao army has captured the emperor hill and waved the news of the eastward march, and it seems that there is an intention to retreat north!" ”

"Qi people want to run?"

Zhao Wuxian snorted coldly, spread out the map and took a closer look, and asked Kan Zhi to point out the specific location of the Qi army.

"Just east of Zhongdu and Kanyi, west of Zhu and Si, the terrain in that area is flat, and the Qi people attacked several cities here, and tried to attack Qufu several times. However, the inner response of his generation in the city has been arrested by Zhang Zi and Liu Xiajiao, and the Qi army has no one to respond, and has already given birth to the heart of retreat. Now that he heard that the general had arrived, he had the intention of returning to Qi through Yiyi. ”

Zhao Wuxian sighed slightly: "From Yuncheng to Zhong, we need to cross Jishui, the army crosses the river extremely slowly, and then to Susi, it will take a total of five days, I am afraid that by the time we arrive, the Qi people have already fled......"

He thought for a while, and immediately said, "Quickly let Xu Cheng come to see me!" ”

……

The territory on the land of Xilu has been plagued by the Qi people, but the territory on the water is impregnable.

Yuncheng is the station of the Lu State Boat Division, although the energy and money invested are not much, but the commander of the Boat Division, Xu Cheng, still built the remaining scattered ships in the hands of the thieves into a real water army.

Fortunately, they didn't come, Xu Cheng, under the guidance of Zhao Wuxian, had already designed a sailboat that had not yet existed in the East in this era, and the flexible speed of the ship was far faster than in the past!

After Xu Cheng met with Zhao Wuxian at the Onozawa Pier, he was given a mission.

"Immediately gather the boatmaster's boats and the fishing boats in Onozawa, and go to the Jishui ferry port to build boats as beams and erect pontoon bridges."

Building a boat for a beam is a common way to cross the river, and Xu promised that this would save the army at least a day of time to cross the river!

But there are still some insufficient, the total number of Qi people is 40,000, and they have robbed a lot of people and money in the Lu country, and it is relatively cumbersome to evacuate, but four days is enough to travel 200 miles, and even if the Zhao army rushes overnight, they can only catch their tails.

Wu Xian has his own idea: "You personally lead the boat division and big ship, transport a light army of 2,500 people, Yang Fan goes east, and lands on the east bank of Ohnozawa, be sure to drag them before the Qi people evacuate!" ”

Xu Cheng's eyes lit up, this is similar to the combat method of the Wu army entering Chu, through the transportation of the boat division, the partial division can save another day and a half, quickly reach the west of Zhusi, and bite the Qi army that is evacuating. But attacking the enemy's 40,000 army with 2,500 men would have to hold them back for at least two days, even though Zhao Wuxian promised that 1,000 cavalry would go over to cooperate first, but this was simply sending them to death!

This time, the commander of the Qi army is not the Qi Marquis who has no generals, but the Guoxia who has the qualifications of a famous general!

In the original history, Guoxia was able to break through the layers of defense of Zhao Ying with more than 10,000 Qi troops, and occupied Xingdi, Rendi, Luandi, Shandi, Reverse Soil, Yinren, Yudi, and Hukou, so that the east of Taihang of the Jin Kingdom was eroded. Rendezvous with Xianyu again, and the ruthless man who traveled hundreds of miles to send Zhongxingyin from Chaoge to Bairen......

Because of him, the civil war between the six secretaries of the Jin State in history was extended for two years.

This time, Guo Xia didn't have a chance to have such a two-eyed performance, but his attack on Lu Guo was still fierce. Even Zhao Wuxian had to wait for the Song army to converge before he could be sure of a decisive battle with it, not to mention that the people of the first division basically had no return.

But this is a military order, the last chance to keep the fighters, who should be sent? It must be a brave and brave general, and it must be a person who can sacrifice his life for righteousness.

Just as Zhao Wuxian was thinking about it, two of the generals stood up at the same time and said in unison:

"I want to go!"

looked at it intently, but saw that the person on the left was a man, it was Tian Ben, a fierce general he had always liked and hated. The person on the right is short in stature, and he looks a little gloomy compared to the strong Tian Ben, who has just been brought by Zigong from the Chu State, and has not yet achieved the skill of size......
