PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
On this day, Jinling City, heavy rain poured down, thunder and lightning flashed.
Forbidden Palace, Imperial Study.
In this spacious and bright hall of Dawu adjudicating government affairs, the atmosphere of Lang Lang in the past has been changed, and the whole atmosphere is a little quiet and gloomy.
They didn't even have the courage to look up at Sun Quan.
Because just last night, a heavy news of the battle in Yuzhou had come back, and the final results of this battle had already come out.
But the end result is......
There are no wins or defeats.
The Wei army did not win, and the Wu army did not win, if it must be said clearly, it was a battle in which both sides were defeated, or the Wei army won a strategic victory with both defeats.
The Central Corps is gone!
An entire legion was completely wiped out.
The Wu army has more than one million, and there are nine major legions under his command, which are headed by the Central Legion, which has the most complete troops, the largest number of troops, and the strongest combat effectiveness.
One corps has already supported the main force of this Northern Expedition.
However, in a merciless torrent, they could not even roll up half of the waves, and they were silent, gone, and finished.
……
This sudden news not only shocked the military aircraft department and couldn't believe it, but also shook the entire major departments of the imperial court.
The saddest thing in life is to be happy and sad.
said that, it should be the entire Great Wu Imperial Court now.
The decisive battle in the Kanto region lasted for several months, from the beginning of spring to the beginning of summer, which was not long. But the situation is clear.
Da Wu is victory in sight.
The decisive battle of Youzhou drove the Wei army out, although it lost the stronghold of Bingzhou, but at least it kept the peace of northern Xinjiang.
In Jizhou, as Cao Pi went south, the military and political powers gradually entered Cui Zhouping's control. That is, the strategy of borrowing chickens and eggs here has been successful, and as long as Cui Zhouping stands up in Jizhou to expose the uprising and return to Wu, it will be almost in hand.
On the Qingzhou side, the Wei army and navy were completely annihilated, the Wu army was like a bamboo, and the only remaining resistance led by Zang Ba also entered Zhou Yu's trap, and at least half a day's life was left, and it was a matter of time before it was besieged and killed.
And the strange soldiers led by Sun Ce. He has led the main force into Yanzhou, and will soon capture Dongjun.
The general trend is in hand, and in this battle of Kanto, Dawu is going to win.
Everyone in the imperial court knew very well that in the near future, the entire Kanto region would be planted with the Great Wu Golden Dragon Banner, and they would all become the territory of Great Wu.
And Cao Wei's strength will all be driven into the land of Guanzhong.
It was a great victory. This was a successful Northern Expedition, and it was also a victory that laid the foundation for the situation in the Central Plains. At the same time, this is also the prelude victory of the Great Wu Dynasty to the imminent unification of the central government.
In Jinling City, the Military Aircraft Department was already preparing a celebration banquet.
But at this time, the bad news came......
Guo Fengxiao's frenzied flood wiped out one of the most powerful legions of Great Wu.
It's like a basin of cold water, pouring down your head.
poured a chill on everyone's fiery hearts, up and down the government. Every department is shaking.
……
"Smack...... Click...... Boom ......"
In the imperial study, after Sun Quan received the news, the first time he confirmed the truth of the news, he smashed everything that could be smashed in his entire imperial study, but the breath in his body was still like thunder.
"You all talk!"
Sun Quan looked up. Looking down at the ministers, he was furious, and roared angrily: "Why don't you speak? Don't you usually talk a lot? Zhang Zhao? Lu Su? Tell me that this is just a fake military information, not true! ”
He still had a kind of anger burning in his heart, as if he was going to burn himself to death.
"Your Majesty is angry!"
Under the main hall, the cabinet, the military aircraft department, the imperial history platform, the brocade guard, and all the ministers in high positions knelt on the ground at this moment, and in the face of Sun Quan's anger, they could only hang their heads and be silent.
At this moment, they can say one sentence, that is, the anger of His Majesty.
"Anger?"
Sun Quan roared angrily: "How do you let me calm my anger, it's all a bunch of them waste, useless things, people have prepared a trap for you for a month upstream, but you didn't notice it at all, the Central Army, the military aircraft department, and the Jinyi Guard, you all deserve to die!" ”
……
Half an hour after the storm.
There was a hint of peace in this hall.
In the midst of the chaos, Sun Quan's mood was vented, and with that trace of calm, he spoke in a hoarse voice: "Mo Cong, you come to tell me the casualty data of the Central Army." ”
"Huh... Report to Your Majesty, the flood has just receded, and the casualties are not clear for the time being! ”
Mo Cong raised his head, suppressed his trembling voice, and said calmly: "We know that only those who survived, the rescue is still ongoing, the casualties cannot be counted for the time being, and only the survivors have been counted!" ”
"Say!"
Sun Quan's handsome and extraordinary face was hideous.
"Your Majesty, you have to be mentally prepared!"
"Don't talk nonsense to me, talk about data!" Sun Quan slapped the book case and roared angrily.
"Yes!"
Mo Cong hurriedly replied: "Report to Your Majesty, the current news from Runan is that only a small part of the Tianpeng Army of the Fifth Army of the Central Army of 12,000 people survived, and they escaped this catastrophe with the help of flying machines, plus the 8,000 people led by Pan Feng Shouzun who retreated to Dahu Mountain, that is, only 20,000 soldiers survived safely, and in the past few days, Pan Feng Shouzun and the Fifth Tianpeng Army are working hard to rescue the surviving soldiers, they have successively fished up 5,000 from the water, and the rescue is still continuing, how many can survive, At present, there are still statistics, and the data obtained, these are the only ones. ”
"Poof!"
Sun Quan spit out a mouthful of blood like an arrow.
It turns out that this data can still be counted like this.
To fight a war is to die. That's a given.
But they never thought that one day, the casualty statistics of a legion would actually be the statistics of surviving.
The Central Army, five armies, nearly 200,000 or so soldiers, is now surviving just a little.
He was furious. His breath was disordered, and his eyes were red, as if he was about to breathe fire.
"Your Majesty, take care!"
"Your Majesty, please stop your anger!"
When the ministers saw it, they hurriedly bowed their heads and shouted.
"Guo Jia !!!!"
Sun Quan's body was shaky, his hands were propped up on the bookcase, and his green and transparent eyes were like poisonous snakes: "I will definitely take down your head to lay the lives of thousands of soldiers in my central government!" ”
Guo Jia, is it a ghost? It seems that the wrong title was used.
He's ruthless.
He dares to use such a ruthless trick, how vicious his heart is. If he records history in the future, he will be stinking for 10,000 years!
Readers value fame.
For Cao Wei's survival, Guo Jia is really willing to do it.
"Your Majesty, at present, we have also received news that the Wei army has fully retreated, Zhang Xiu of Nanyang is retreating towards Wuguan, and in the direction of Yuzhou, they are emptying Yingchuan. Relocate the people of Yingchuan into Guanzhong, and then in the direction of Yanzhou. The soldiers and horses withdrew from the East County, completely ignoring the territory of the East County, and went towards the Tiger Pass! Mo Cong continued to report.
"They want to run away?"
Sun Quan sneered: "Immediately go and pass on my holy decree, let Sun Ce and Lu Bu obey their orders, and entangle them to the death, the more they want to run." The more they are not allowed to run, at all costs, as much as they can stay, remember, do not take prisoners in this battle. Have one, kill one! ”
His killing intent was cold, which made the hearts of the ministers in the imperial study feel slightly cold.
"Yes!" Don't follow orders.
"In addition to the casualties of our legion, let's talk about the casualties of the people of Runan."
Sun Quan forced himself to calm down, so far, he is manic, he vomits blood, it is useless, he can only be calm, deal with it calmly, in order to do things best.
"Your Majesty, there are Caishui and Huaishui in Runan, and there are many rivers in addition to Yingshui, and they have stored water for more than a month, and in June, several large-scale rains have rained in a row, and the water storage is enough to be comparable to a small-scale flood in our Jiangdong.
This torrent covers as much as half of Runan County.
The number of people affected has reached about 1.5 million.
The real casualties are not yet clear, but it is conceivable that after the flood waters receded, there were dead bodies everywhere, some old and some young, unsightly! ”
Mo Cong said angrily.
"Chen Gong!" Sun Quan gritted his teeth and shouted in a low voice.
"In!"
"How many people can be mobilized in the reserve corps we are currently preparing!" Sun Quan asked calmly.
The reserve corps is the 10th corps, which does not belong to the official corps established by the Military Aircraft Department, and is all new recruits, and they are all supplemented to the major legions in the future.
"At present, only 30,000 soldiers can be mobilized!" Chen Gong hurriedly said: "But they don't have any combat effectiveness, after all, the training time is not long, and they have not adapted to the battlefield, at most they are only young and strong in combat effectiveness!" ”
"You personally lead these 30,000 soldiers, and within three days, you will go north to enter the land of Runan, and the second assistant of the cabinet will be the main body, Kuai Liang, to carry out disaster relief on the land of Runan!"
Sun Quan acted vigorously and resolutely, and looked at Kuai Liang: "Kuai Cifu, you will preside over this matter in the cabinet, the military recruits will cooperate with you, you must do the best, after the catastrophe, it will be a big chaos, you can live one, don't give up one, who dares to take the opportunity to make trouble, kill without mercy, Runan is already ours, even if it is a thousand warehouses, we have to bear it, and there is a point, the corpse must also be disposed of, it will be July soon, the temperature is getting higher and higher, if it becomes a plague, I am afraid that more people will die!" ”
"The subordinates understand that the subordinates will never let His Majesty down!"
Kuai Liang arched his hand and said.
"And!"
Sun Quan turned his head and looked at Mi Zhu, the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, and Lu Su, the secretary of the Ministry of Commerce: "Whether it is the Ministry of Household or the Ministry of Commerce, no matter how you squeeze it or where you take it out, you will take out 10 million silver dollars of materials for me and send it to Runan!" ”
"No!"
Lu Su and Mi Zhu nodded and did not refuse.
"You go now, move a day earlier, and you can save a few more people!" Sun Quan said.
"Yes!"
The four of them bowed and left the imperial study quickly.
"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be suppressed!" Zhang Zhao raised his head and suggested in a low voice: "Once the news comes out, I am afraid that it will cause a fierce reaction across the country, and the people's hearts will be boiling, and there will be chaos!" ”
"I can't hold it down!"
When Sun Quan heard this, he said coldly: "The Central Army was almost completely wiped out, with more than 100,000 casualties, who can suppress such a big thing?" I can't do it, can you? ”
"Even if you can't press it down, you have to slow down!" Zhang Zhaodao: "Originally, because of the Kwantung Campaign, the people's hearts were a little nervous, and before because of the successive victories, the people's hearts were wanted, but now as soon as this news comes out, it will inevitably cause the people's hearts to turn back, if someone makes trouble, the situation is not good for the imperial court!" ”
"It's better to be blocked!"
Sun Quan's eyes were like blades, and a touch of essence swept through, sharp and incomparable: "The only thing we can do at present is to take the initiative to expose, win sympathy, transfer the shock of casualties, and use the news of Jizhou to calm down this casualty!" ”
"Jizhou?"
"Jizhou has fallen into the hands of our Dongwu, and it is about to change flags, once Jizhou is included in the territory of Dawu, this is an exciting thing, with joy and sorrow!" Sun Quan said.
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Everyone nodded.
"But this matter is a matter that can't be stepped on, the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, after all, someone has to bear this charge!"
Sun Quan's face was expressionless, and there was a hint of coldness on his expression.
"Who's going to carry it?" Someone asked in a low voice.
As soon as this voice came out, the scene suddenly fell silent.
"What, do you want to make a sin against you?" Sun Quan sneered, he wanted to carry it, but he couldn't afford it.
"We don't dare!"
When the ministers heard this, they hurriedly trembled, what are you kidding, Dongwu has not yet reached the point of life and death, and it is not the turn of Sun Quan, the boss, to bear this charge in person.
"Pan Feng is the head of the military aircraft and the chief general of the Northern Expedition, recall him back!" Sun Quan said calmly.
"No!"
One of them immediately went down to give the order.
"Zhang Zhao stays, let's go down!" Sun Quan rubbed his temples with both hands, and said instructively: "The more critical it is, the more it is the opportunity to test the imperial court, stabilize me, don't cause the turmoil below, no matter what our casualties are, you all give me the confidence of a victor, this battle, we won!" ”
"Do as Your Majesty wishes!"
The ministers nodded, then stood up, and left the imperial study.
"Zibu, we won this battle, but we won a miserable victory!"
Sun Quan smiled bitterly: "Although it is a tragic victory, it is a victory after all, Guanzhong Yuzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou will all become the territory of Great Wu, and the cabinet and the military must accept it and enter the local governance!" ”
"Our cabinet has been preparing for more than half a year, and we have also reserved a lot of talents!" Zhang Zhao nodded and said, "In a few years, we should be able to sort out these places and let them synchronize Jiangdong!" ”
"That's good!"
Zhang Zhao's ability to do things Sun Quan still believes, he said: "Qingzhou and Yanzhou are all disabled, easy to clean up, Yanzhou is also scattered, as long as you go in, it will be rebuilt after it is broken, and it is easy to deal with, the most complicated thing in this is Jizhou, I don't want to make a big move in the future, it depends on whether the cabinet officials can let them transition safely!" ”
"The cabinet will send Zhu Zhi to Jizhou in person to set up the Jizhou Governor's Office, give us some time, it should be able to make Jizhou transition safely!" Zhang Zhao said confidently.
"I've got you all the time, the next time is very relaxed!"
Sun Quan said: "Cao Wei gave up Guanzhong, saved a lot of troops, defended Guanzhong, stuck to their only remaining territory, the strength is still there, and there is a dangerous tiger prison pass, Bishui Pass, and Wuguan are connected into a line, it is difficult for us to enter, and in this battle in the Kwantung region, our casualties are too great, the Central Army is almost completely destroyed, which is equivalent to hurting the vitality of the military aircraft, there is no three or four years, it is impossible to reorganize from the Blood Wolf Legion, the Flying Tiger Legion, and the Flame Legion, and it also needs to be reorganized and replenished after the war, I estimate that within three to five years, I'm afraid it's a quiet period! ”
