Chapter 124: No General in the DPRK (Middle)
"There is a Chu army in the south?! Where did Your Highness hear this news? Qi Rui was a little incredulous and asked rhetorically. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"My fiefdom is in Zhongxian County south of Chuqiu, which is the closest place to Chu in Xiaoweiguo, and a few days ago, some mountain people reported to me about the appearance of Chu troops on the border." Zi Nanyan said that, as if he felt that he was not convincing enough, he glanced at Wei Yanjun, who was in golden armor and red cloak, and said, "If Xiangguo doesn't believe it, you can ask Lieutenant General Wei Yanjun of Xialang, or verify with Ling Duwei to see if what I said is true!" ”
Qi Rui looked at Ling Yi with some doubts, the latter frowned lightly, nodded and replied, "I received a report from the spies today, and there is indeed a suspicious figure of the Chu army in the south, judging from the number of stoves in the army, there are about 30,000 people!" ”
"Thirty thousand!" The minister of the DPRK and China suddenly let out a burst of exclamation.
Zi Nanyan showed a satisfied smile, bowed to Wei Jun, and continued, "Father, the Chu army has always coveted the fertile soil in the south of my Xiaowei Kingdom, and the son thinks that he needs to send a general to the southern camp to send additional troops to the southern camp and stay in the southern camp for a long time, so as to eliminate the ambition of the Chu army!" ”
Hearing this, Chang Yu couldn't help frowning, and before he could speak, Zi Nanyang had already shook his head and said what Chang Yu said:
"Zi Nanyan, you are wrong! The ministers of the DPRK and China all know that the army of the entire Xiaowei Kingdom is only 30,000 people, among them, the Guanze North Battalion, the Yewang East Battalion, and the Chuqiu South Battalion, each battalion has more than 5,000 people, a total of 15,000 people, and the rest of the men and horses are all in Puyang City, with 5,000 guards in the palace under the command of Wei Yanjun, and 10,000 defenders in the city under the command of Ling Duwei. And the Chu army is a big country, known as a million armor, and the 30,000 suspicious soldiers who appeared in our defense realm this time may only be the vanguard force. If it is really according to what your son Nanyan said, the guards poured out, Puyang City was empty, and there was no slightest defensive power, so it was necessary to fall for the other party's plan to lure the enemy! ”
"Humph! Zi Nanyang, when did I say that I was going to pour out of the nest?! Zi Nanyan looked angry and asked rhetorically.
Zi Nanyang sneered and asked unceremoniously, "Zi Nanyan, do you think that sending a few thousand more people can compete with the 30,000 Chu army?" ”
"Zi Nanyang, sending more troops to the southern camp is at least much better than the current situation!" Zi Nanyan was about to refute.
Although these two are half-brothers, they call their names directly above the court, showing no mercy at all, and they are tense for a while.
"Enough!"
Wei Jun roared angrily, and the court suddenly booed.
It is an indisputable fact that the military strength of the patriotic state is stretched, and every time there is any disturbance on the border, the precarious little patriotic state will fall into a state of anxiety. Fortunately, in the past few years, under the rectification of Le Zhenggong, the military strength has increased to a certain extent, and the city defense building is even more unbreakable.
Wei Jun thought about it for a while, paced back and forth anxiously, the hanging beads in front of his forehead rattled, swept the hall, and asked Wei Yanjun, "Yanjun, you just said that there is news about the Qin army, what is going on?" ”
Wei Yanjun stepped forward, saluted Wei Jun with a fist, and said in a loud voice, "Qi Wei Jun, in addition to the suspicious soldiers of the Chu State in the south, a large number of horse thieves have gone south from Maling this time and invaded the villages and towns everywhere, which has attracted the attention of the Qin State, and a Qin soldier has also appeared next to Taoyi and Yewang Town. ”
The Qin army appeared in Taoyi? This time, even Chang Yu was a little surprised, but he thought about it:
Taoyi was originally a piece of land carved up from Qi by the Qin State in the Five Kingdoms of Qi, crossing most of the Central Plains, with an area close to the size of the Wei State, adjacent to the east of the Wei State.
Although Taoyi is only guarded by 30,000 Qin troops and is surrounded by various countries like an isolated island, because Taoyi is a mining town given to Qin Prime Minister Wei Ran by the King of Qin, and there is Wei Ran's son, ****, who personally led the troops to be stationed in it, all countries can only stare at this piece of fat in front of them.
As soon as Wei Yanjun's words came out, Wei Jun's brows were immediately furrowed, Wei Yanjun looked at it and hurriedly added, "However, the last general thinks that the Qin army's Chen Bing Taoyi border is aimed at defending against horse thieves, not against my little country. However, for the sake of safety, the troops of the eastern camp should not be withdrawn. Captain Zhang Yi, who guarded the East Camp of Yewang, should have been the same as the last general's thoughts, so he did not act rashly. ”
"I'm afraid that it may not be, the Qin army is the army of tigers and wolves, and it is insatiable and greedy, maybe it has coveted my little country for a long time!" Zi Nanyan shook his head and interjected.
Zi Nanyang and Qi Rui were both pensive, and when it came to Qin Jun, no one was sure of judgment.
Wei Jun exhaled lightly, and everyone in the middle of the field looked around, and finally their eyes fell on Chang Yu, and asked, "I don't know what Mr. thinks?" ”
Wei Jun's question immediately shifted everyone's attention to himself.
There is the Chu army in the south, the Qin army in the east, and the horse thieves in the north. And this little strength of Xiaoweiguo, dealing with the Chu army and the Qin army, is beyond the horse, and the only one who can deal with it is the six-horse army.
Chang Yu glanced at everyone's expressions, knew what to expect, and asked Wei Jun, "Gao Jian didn't dare to say, Chang Mou had a question." ”
"Sir, but it doesn't hurt to say that." Wei Jun said.
"Xiao Weiguo's situation is critical now, I don't know if the Great Wei State will send troops to help?" Chang Yu asked.
"Send troops to help?!" Zi Nanyang, who was standing beside Chang Yu, snorted coldly, revealing disdain, "Hmph, Wei is also a tiger and wolf......
Wei Jun raised his hand to stop Zi Nanyang's dissatisfaction, sighed, and said, "If Xiao Weiguo is besieged under Puyang City, maybe the Great Wei State will send troops to help!" ”
Chang Yu saw that Wei Jun's expression was a little weird, and he understood most of it:
For the Great Wei State, although it has been used several times, it is after all a barrier to the east, and it is inextricably linked, so it is impossible to turn a blind eye. But unless it is a last resort, Wei will never take the initiative to send troops to help, and it is impossible for Wei to directly send an army to such an unclear and suspicious army as it is now.
"Since that's the case, it's better to ignore the Chu army and the Qin army." Chang Yu said something that surprised everyone.
"Ignore it?!" Zi Nanyan's face changed, and he shouted, "If the Chu army directly attacks Puyang City, what will it do?" ”
Everyone also looked at Chang Yu suspiciously.
"The land of Xiaowei is narrow, and what can really be held is only the strong city of Puyang City, and the rest of the places have a wide field of vision, which is not conducive to fighting with the Chu army and the Qin army. Coupled with the strength of the patriotic army, it was impossible to compete with the countries, if the Qin and Chu armies really attacked, the Dongying and Nanjing battalions could not fight, and retreated to Puyang City in the first battle. Only by sticking to Puyang City can we retain vitality. Rescuing Le Zhenggong right now is the most important thing. Chang Yu said.
After all, Ling Yi was a soldier, and he immediately understood the key point of what Chang Yu said, "What Brother Chang means is that the Chu army and the Qin army don't have to pay attention to it, as long as they send people from Puyang City to rescue Le Zhenggong?" ”
"Won't the southern border send more men?" Wei Jun couldn't help but ask.
"Exactly." Chang Yu nodded, "Chang thinks that if the Chu army is not good for Xiaoweiguo, it will not only send 30,000 Chu troops, let alone let us find traces, although the Chu army's whereabouts are strange, it should not be in Xiaoweiguo." As for the Qin army, although it is impossible to speculate, as long as the Qin army is in trouble, the men and horses of Dongying will directly withdraw to Puyang City. Otherwise, with the ferocity of the 30,000 Qin army, it is not inevitable that the 5,000 men and horses of Dongying can stop it. ”
After hearing this, Wei Jun had been persuaded by Chang Yu in his heart, frowning and stretching a lot, and pacing back and forth, it was not so heavy.
Zi Nanyan and Wei Yanjun secretly glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.
Zi Nanyang stepped forward and said, "Father, Brother Chang's judgment is straight to the point, and the son thinks that he can order Ling Duwei to lead half of the defenders and half of the guards in the city to go to Maling to exterminate the horse bandits and aid Le Zhenggong!" ”
When Zi Nanyan heard this, his eyes rolled under his two thin eyebrows, and he also stepped forward and said, "Father, my son thinks that flower thieves and thieves have been rampant in the city recently, and the city needs Ling Duwei to be in charge, so it is more appropriate to let Lieutenant General Wei Yanjun lead this army." ”
Now back to the competition for the leading general, these two people have no concessions.
Since it is against the Six Horse Army, the chances of victory are naturally much greater than against the Chu Army and the Qin Army, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is an obvious merit.
But Le Zhenggong's life and death are unknown, and this trip to Ma Ling is naturally a lot more dangerous.
When it came to the matter of thieves, Wei Jun couldn't help but glance at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi secretly hated in his heart, and said stubbornly, "Your Highness said with a smile, the last general is willing to lead the troops into battle, and the thieves in the city can be handed over to a few deputy generals, and the thieves will be caught and severely punished!" ”
The three lieutenants standing at the head of Ling Yi responded in unison. (To be continued.) )
