Chapter 653: Resolution
"Luoyang", no, we still call it Little Luoyang, the city is built on a plain about dozens of miles in radius, if you stand high enough, you will find that compared with the real Luoyang, the layout of the building is almost identical, it is completely a miniature version, the construction of the street in all directions, the imperial city, the palace guard, almost a copy of Luoyang, the only difference is that he is much smaller, the whole city is only a dozen miles away, the periphery of the city, is a large area of farmland, It's June, and the crops are growing very well. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 However, the farmers who were supposed to be tending to the crops in the fields were now in no mood to serve these farm work related to their livelihood for a year, and a large number of fleeing people from outside the city were from the coast, and they brought shocking news, an extremely strong enemy came, the naval division of the Great Zhou Dynasty had been wiped out, and the harbor garrison was also defeated, and General Wei Zhihua, who had the reputation of the first general of the younger generation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was also beaten and fled, and the coastal area was only more than a hundred miles away from Xiaoluoyang.
Most of the peasants have fled into the city for refuge, although the city wall of Xiaoluoyang is not so steep, but there is also a wall to block it, and there are still many troops in it, which is better than an unsheltered outside.
Everyone is wondering, who is coming? Pirates, but over the years, the pirates who came to attack have long been killed to the end, it can't be them, besides, the pirates don't have the ability to defeat the sailors of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In the midst of endless speculation, the people were panicked, and the imperial court did not stand up to refute the rumors or issue some announcements to calm people's hearts at the first time, which made the people even more panicked.
"Your Majesty, with the current situation, you can only fight to the death!" Wei Gang said to Zhou Ruizong, the contemporary emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was standing on the edge of the railing.
Zhou Ruizong, is the tenth generation grandson of the crown prince who fled overseas at the time of the collapse of the Great Zhou Dynasty, compared to his ancestors when they were in danger, they resolutely sailed overseas, followed the Great Zhou Dynasty, and worked the island for several generations, and finally subdued and assimilated the indigenous people on Taiwan Island.
Fortunately, there were several big families who fled with the crown prince back then, and these families have a deep heritage, and there will always be one or two elites in each generation.
"What should I do, what should I do?" As the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he naturally knows the ins and outs of everything, and he understands better in his heart that once the Great Chu army discovers him and breaks through Luoyang, what will be the fate waiting for him?
Turning his head and looking at Wei Gang, he said in a low voice: "Wei Qing, you said, if we surrender, will Da Chu spare us?" Let us live? ”
Wei Gang sighed and glanced at His Majesty the Emperor with hatred, "Your Majesty, if we surrender without a fight, then the duel that awaits us will not end well." You are not unaware that the rise of any dynasty is based on the extermination of the previous dynasty. ”
"It's been so many years, hundreds of years, and there is still such a deep hatred?" Zhou Ruizong muttered.
"Your Majesty, will you forget the hatred of the Qin family for usurping the throne back then?" Wei Gang asked rhetorically.
Zhou Ruizong was stunned, yes, did you forget, how many late nights, I also dreamed that one day I could return to the mainland and behead the Qin family who usurped the throne!
"Your Majesty, you haven't forgotten, then will they forget, and we still have the heirloom jade seal in our hands!" Wei Gang said loudly.
Zhou Ruizong shuddered, yes, the jade seal of the country, this one thing alone is enough to make the Qin family miss the Great Zhou Dynasty for generations.
"But Wei Qing, we only have such a small pirate, and the Qin family now sits on such a large piece of land, once we are discovered, the army will inevitably come in an endless stream, do we have a chance to win?" Zhou Ruizong said.
Wei Gang gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, we are alone here, thousands of miles away from the mainland, they want to fight us, the cost is absolutely huge, as long as we grit our teeth and can support it, the longer it drags on, the more chance we have to survive, only by beating them so that they don't want to fight, and they feel that the gains outweigh the losses, we have the opportunity to negotiate peace with them." ”
"Then, then everything is entrusted to Wei Qing, the whole country owns, Wei Qing can call it, as long as we can win."
"Obey the order, Your Majesty, the minister will never live up to His Majesty's trust!" Wei Gang slammed to the ground.
Ten days later, Zheng Zhiqiang returned to the naval division station, in the past few days since he left, the 5,000 marines have repaired the harbor, more than a dozen 3,000 warships are moored in the harbor, and 5,000 warships and 10,000 giant ships are moored in the open sea. The whole harbor area was busy, and the defensive positions began to take shape. On top of the previous opponent's base, the Dingzhou army rebuilt its defensive position, but the direction of defense fell one by one.
"Big brother, Master Tiger, General Zhong!" Zheng Zhiqiang said excitedly: "This time I really opened my eyes, and I really laughed to death, dozens of states in Dachu can be found here, but some states are just a larger village, and the so-called Luoyang still has a few grandeur, and the architectural pattern is almost a copy of Luoyang, but it has shrunk several times, and I also went to the edge of the imperial city to take a walk!" ”
Everyone nodded, "It seems that what we expected is good, this is the remnants of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhiqiang, did you find anything in that Luoyang?" ”
"They're conscripting!" Zheng Zhiqiang said: "All men must be conscripted into the army, I don't look good, if I stay, I will be forcibly recruited by them, so I escaped." ”
"Can you estimate how many people they will recruit?" Zheng Zhiyuan asked.
"I'm afraid there are a lot, these days, tens of thousands of people have arrived around Luoyang, and on the way back, I also found that many people are gathering in Luoyang, but some of them are ridiculous, they don't even have weapons for these people, these *** are farmers, fishermen, hoes, harpoons, even if they are their weapons." Zheng Zhiqiang said.
Zheng Zhiyuan's face became grim, "It seems that they want to fight to the death." Ants bite elephants to death, and on other people's territory, this battle is really not easy to fight! We have too few people to fight. ”
"Big brother, a thousand sheep can't beat a lion, although they have a lot of people, but those people can defeat us?" Zheng Zhiqiang doesn't care about the authentic.
Zheng Zhiyuan glared at him and said: "Military affairs, how can you be so speculative, only when all aspects are taken into account, there will be no accidents, don't forget, this is someone else's territory, don't underestimate the opponent's determination to defend the homeland." Even if it is a farmer and a fisherman, when it comes to life and death, he will burst out with extremely amazing combat effectiveness, and the rabbit is in a hurry and kicks the eagle, not to mention people! ”
Zhong Jing nodded, "General Zheng is right!" Be careful, take it one step at a time! ”
"Let's all come and have a look!" Zheng Zhiyuan spread out a map, "This is a rough topographic map of Taiwan Island drawn by the marines who sneaked inland, which is relatively rough, but it finally gives us a general understanding of this place." ”
The crowd gathered around and looked at the map spread out on the table.
"Fight, we are not afraid, even if we can't win, we will never lose, the worst result is that we retreat to the sea and wait for reinforcements to come. What I fear most is that in the end, these people will retreat to the mountains, and if they are allowed to escape to the mountains, it will be troublesome. The forest sea is vast, as soon as you enter the mountains, you will be like a bird into the jungle, and then you want to find out, but it is not so easy, these mountains, even if 100,000 troops sprinkle into it, there is nothing to bubble up! ”
"General Zheng, we can first send a force to transport the water division to this side to land, ambush here, and hold Luoyang's retreat to the mountains, so that they have no way out!" Zhong Jing tapped a place with her finger.
"But we don't have enough troops at hand!" Zheng Zhiren said in embarrassment, "Five thousand marines, how many can be sent out to work, if we send too much, we will appear very passive here, you know, this is equivalent to idling a strong army, what if the other party doesn't escape?" Have we not wasted these forces in vain? ”
"There's a world where you can have both worlds!" Zhong Jing said with a smile: "Just in case, this is also a last resort, as General Zheng said, as a last resort, we retreat to the sea to besiege them." Wait for reinforcements to come. ”
"Dashuai hopes that we will open up overseas territories and feed Dingzhou in the future, if we delay here for too long, will we miss Dashuai's big event?" Zheng Zhiqiang asked.
Zhong Jing shook his head, "A jade seal of the country is too important for the great cause of Dashuai in the future, in order to get him, even if we spend a year here, it is worth it, you know, Da Chu for this thing, but it took hundreds of years to slowly give up, and now the fat has reached our mouths, and there is no reason not to eat it." ”
Zheng Zhiqiang slammed the table, "That's it, Zhiqiang, you lead a thousand marines to block their back road." ”
Zheng Zhiqiang's face collapsed when he heard this, "Big brother, if I go, isn't it possible that I won't be able to fight a single battle." ”
Zheng Zhiyuan's face sank, "What, do you want to disobey?" ”
Zhong Jing explained on the side: "General Xiao Zheng, the burden on your body is too important, we must send a general over there, otherwise if something goes wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable!" What is the point of fighting here, hehe, as you said, with a group of farmers and fishermen? ”
Several people were discussing, and suddenly a terrible horn alarm sounded outside, everyone was startled, rushed out of the cabin, and when they looked closely, outside the sailor, a roaring fire ship was rushing towards the sailor fleet.
"Want to burn our ship?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Zheng Zhiyuan's mouth.
