Russellin was established. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Whether all the arrangements and deployments made by Wu Shaogang can have practical results, whether Liu Yuanzhen will do it, whether he will enter the trap, this is something that no one can say, and after the army was assembled in Tongchuan Fucheng, it was also slow to act, and it was impossible for scouts to detect the core intelligence of Chengdu Fucheng.
It was at this time that Luo Sulin's information arrived, which made Wu Shaogang completely determined, ordered the army to be ready at any time, and secretly entered Huai'an, preparing to attack Chengdu Fucheng.
Luo Sulin's information this time is very accurate and very detailed.
Later, the restaurant was burned down, Luo Sulin led everyone to flee from Chengdu Fucheng, and when he returned to Tongchuan, Wu Shaogang ordered the army to start moving, and the 30,000 troops under his command all entered the Jinshui of Huai'an.
The Hezhou Imperial Army is under the control of Cai Siwei, thinking about a good attack on Chengdu Fucheng, the intelligence bureau got the information, stationed in Chengdu Fucheng only 10,000 Mongolian troops, in terms of numbers, Hezhou Imperial Front Army occupies an absolute advantage, not only Cai Siwei, the soldiers of the Hezhou Imperial Army, but also made adequate preparations, the equipment needed for the siege is very sufficient, and even dragged two cannons.
It's a pity that after the Hezhou Imperial Army entered Jinshui, Wu Shaogang's order also arrived, and everyone stood by.
Wu Shaogang's strategy was to outwit the city of Chengdu.
Cai Siwei and others were a little puzzled, including Li Siqi and Hao Jing, who both thought that it was too difficult to outwit, and Chengdu Fucheng was the nest of Liu Heima and Liu Yuanzhen, if they didn't experience the baptism of war, they would be difficult to control.
Wu Shaogang has a different view.
Any siege battle, the damage to the city is huge, are difficult to recover in a short period of time, think about the history of many siege battles, many famous cities, is because the battle was destroyed, and reconstruction, it takes a lot of manpower, material resources and money.
Chengdu Fucheng is far stronger than Luzhou and Tongchuan, and even stronger than Chongqing Fucheng, Wu Shaogang has made up his mind to take Chengdu Fucheng as a temporary base camp, and for a long time in the future, he will guard Chengdu Fucheng to develop and strengthen his own strength.
Wu Shaogang will never allow a dilapidated Chengdu Fucheng, let alone let Chengdu Fucheng be destroyed in the war, now he can take tonic, not a laxative, once Chengdu Fucheng fell into the war, resulting in Chengdu Fulu all fell into turmoil, with the strength of Tongchuan Fulu, it is difficult to stabilize at all, when the time comes, not only the imperial court will meddle in the affairs here, even Kublai Khan will not let go of such an opportunity.
As long as Chengdu Fulu is stable, Wu Shaogang has absolute confidence to deal with everything that may happen in the future.
In the fourth year of Jingding, July 12.
This is a valley, just thirty miles from the city of Chengdu.
Nearly 30,000 soldiers of the Hezhou Imperial Front Army were all stationed in the valley, waiting for the order to attack.
The intelligence of all parties is integrated to Wu Shaogang here, the army led by Liu Yuanzhen has been heading towards Bazhou and Langzhou, it is not surprising that the battle of Bazhou will be launched within a few days, the entire Chengdu Fu Road, on the surface, the security is tight, especially in the direction of Deyang Fucheng, part of the Mongolian Tartars put on an offensive posture, and there are constantly small groups of Mongolian troops shuttling between the eagle's beaks.
The map of the city of Chengdu, as well as the map of the Mongolian army stationed outside the city, were also all on the table.
When the army left Jinshui County, the operation was top secret, and it could not be leaked out in the slightest.
The officers above the commander of the imperial army in Hezhou, as well as Li Siqi and Hao Jing and others, were all concentrated in the Chinese military tent.
Wu Shaogang's expression was very calm, looking at everyone, and slowly spoke.
"The battle to attack the city of Chengdu was decided to start at the ugly time tonight, our attack started from the west gate, and the 3,000 soldiers who infiltrated the city will occupy the west gate at the time of tonight, and receive the 7,000 soldiers to enter the city, these 10,000 soldiers control the entire city as quickly as possible, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers are responsible for completely exterminating the Mongolian Tartars in the military camp outside the city."
"According to the information detected by the scouts, every night, 3,000 Mongolian soldiers stationed in the barracks will enter the city to be responsible for guarding and guarding, and there are nearly 5,000 people in the city to maintain order, but they never thought that we would raid the city of Chengdu, so they have no preparation."
"Entering the garrison of the Mongol Tatars in the city, the scouts have already detected and completely exterminated them, which is the basis for ensuring our smooth occupation of the Chengdu Prefecture, and the next 10,000 soldiers must prevent the Mongol Tatars stationed outside the city from entering the city, which is also the most critical point."
"The 20,000 soldiers who encircled and suppressed the 7,000 Mongol Tatars outside the city must act quickly, do not leave any chance for the Mongol Tatars to escape, and completely control the situation of the battle."
"Nearly 30,000 troops in front of the Hezhou Imperial Army, once they move, they can't completely keep their whereabouts secret, around the city of Chengdu, Liu Yuanzhen has also arranged a lot of sergeants to be on guard, in the past two days, we have exterminated some of them, although their combat effectiveness is not strong, but we can't have the slightest negligence."
"The 7,000 soldiers who entered the west gate moved at three quarters of the hour, and the 20,000 troops who surrounded and suppressed the Mongol Tatars outside the city moved at the ugly hour, and there was an interval of a quarter of an hour during this period.
"I have emphasized many times that the city of Chengdu must be preserved, the war cannot be spread out in the city, sporadic fighting is inevitable, but it must not be allowed to suffer major damage, this must be done."
"Okay, Cai Du, you are the commander-in-chief of this battle, and it is up to you to arrange the specific combat tasks."
Cai Siwei stood up and spoke to the many officers.
"Your Excellency has ordered me to be the commander of this battle, and I will issue a battle order below."
"Zhang Binghui, the deputy commander of the capital and the commander of the White Army, listened to the order."
"The end will be."
"Zhang Binghui, you led the 7,000 soldiers belonging to the Tabai Army and the Urging Front Army, set off at the right time, rushed to the west gate of Chengdu Fucheng, attacked the city, and assisted the Qifeng Army to lead Ma Long and occupy Chengdu Fucheng."
"The last general commands."
"Elect Wang Xiaosan, the commander of the front army, to assist Zhang Binghui in the battle."
"The last general commands."
"Chang Mingquan, the deputy capital commander, and Qin Han, the commander of the Youyi army, obey the order."
"The end will be..."
"You assisted Ben Shuai, commanded 20,000 soldiers, and completely exterminated the Mongol Tartars stationed in the military camp outside the city of Chengdu."
"The last general commands...
。。。
After the order was given, many officers left the Chinese military tent in turn.
Also left in the Chinese military tent were Wu Shaogang, Li Siqi, Hao Jing, Cai Siwei, Zhang Binghui and others.
Cai Siwei personally commanded the army and encircled and suppressed the Mongolian Tatars stationed outside the city of Chengdu, and it should be said that the combat mission was very heavy.
The person who stayed in the Chinese military tent was Wu Shaogang's absolute confidant, and at this time, Wu Shaogang had something to say.
"This battle, we have been preparing for more than half a year, we have been waiting for the best time, I even issued an order, not to allow the Xingyuan Mansion Imperial Army to rush to the aid of Bazhou Prefecture, when attacking Chengdu Prefecture, I thought of making every effort to protect the Prefecture, so that the Mansion City will not suffer any damage and destruction, such an arrangement, I hope you can understand."
"Once Chengdu Fucheng is captured, this will become our garrison, and it will become the place where the imperial armies of Hezhou are stationed, whether it is Luzhou Fucheng or Tongchuan Fucheng, it cannot be compared with Chengdu Fucheng, occupying Chengdu Fucheng, we will be able to control the entire Sichuan, and we can also control Tubo in the west and Yunnan in the south."
"This battle, if it develops according to our wishes, when the Hezhou Imperial Army completely defeats Liu Yuanzhen and recovers a lot of lost territory, it will definitely cause a lot of shocks, on the one hand, the imperial court will pay attention to the situation here, the emperor and the Privy Council will not ignore it, and Kublai Khan will also be anxious, it is impossible to ignore it, and may even send a large army to encircle and suppress, and then Chengdu Mansion Road will be lively."
"The emperor and the Privy Council interfered in the affairs of Chengdu Fulu, which is nothing more than sending officials to govern this area, they would never think of sending troops to garrison here, because of the next danger, anyone can think that there are no such fearless officials in the court, maybe Kublai Khan will send a large army to encircle and suppress, trying to regain the lost territory, and the Mongol Tatars stationed in Yunnan will definitely send troops to attack the Chengdu Fucheng."
"I can conclude that the responsibility for governing Chengdu Fulu will still fall on my head, so Chengdu Fucheng will become our most important reliance."
"Speaking of which, you should all understand why I have been thinking for so long and preparing for more than half a year, I said before that the place under the jurisdiction of Tongchuan Fulu is too small, and there is no room for development at all."
"Cai Siwei, Zhang Binghui, your task is very heavy, you must take Chengdu Fucheng in the shortest possible time, you must completely wipe out the Mongolian army stationed here, and then we will spend a certain amount of time to clean up Chengdu Fucheng on a certain scale, so that Chengdu Fucheng can be completely stabilized."
。。。
In the Chinese military tent, only Wu Shaogang and Hao Jing remained.
Hao Jing sighed and did not speak.
Wu Shaogang looked at Hao Jing and spoke with a smile.
"Mr. Hao, I know what you want to say, what you are worried about, and I also know that once you lose the Chengdu Fu Road and the Lizhou West Road, Kublai Khan will definitely be furious, and he will inevitably send a large army to come, and the Mongolian Tatars stationed in Yunnan will also be dispatched, all these problems are not too big, we can deal with them."
