Remember [69 Chinese Network] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
Capital!
The Lord's Mansion of Zhuyang County......
On the second day of the Battle of Qi County, Yan Yunge finally received the news from Fugui Villa.
She sat in her study and was silent for a long time.
The maid Abei is particularly worried.
"Is the girl alright?"
Yan Yunge shook his head slightly, "The anti-thieves don't fight the rich county, and they go to fight the poor hahaqi county, what's the picture?" Could it be that Tuqi County is poor, and Tuqi County is a ravine? It doesn't make sense! This is not a small thief with thousands of people who can turn around at any time.
This is a big thief with two or three hundred thousand people, a huge scale, which can make the courtiers panic! Moreover, Sima Dou was only temporarily defeated, the foundation is still there, and the people are also there. He couldn't divide his troops to fight Qi County. ”
On the table, there is a map of the Gyeonggi region, which is one of the most clear and accurate in the world.
You can clearly see the roads, mountains, and cities of Gyeonggi.
The approximate population of each county.
She stared at the map, her finger sliding over it.
No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't figure out Sima Dou's tactical strategy.
Paint County, no reason!
Once the battle is unfavorable and is overtaken by the Southern Army, you can only enter the mountains.
In the vast mountains, 100,000 people go in, and 10,000 people can come out alive!
There are no roads in the mountains!
There are all kinds of dangers in the mountains.
Mosquito bites alone can kill most people by causing various diseases.
In these years, the mountains and beasts are all small.
It's usually the things that are easy to overlook: poisonous flowers and plants, all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants......
There were no antibiotics, no first aid kits, and there weren't even decent doctors among the thieves.
There are also no tightly wrapped combat boots.
It is spring and summer, and the mountains are at their busiest and most dangerous seasons of the year.
Every step the thief takes in the mountains may cost them their lives.
The vast mountains are not something that can be walked out in a day or two.
There are no ten days and a half months, or even a month, and I don't want to lead a large army and go out of the mountains smoothly.
Attacking Qi County is clearly a decision not to leave a way out for yourself.
Irrational!
It's crazy like a psychopath!
This is not in line with the characteristics of the great anti-thief Sima Dou's past wars.
In the past, Sima Dou fought when he could win, and ran away if he couldn't win.
Run far away, run to a safe place to recuperate.
The Southern Army was in pursuit, and Qi County was not a safe place.
"The slave doesn't understand what the girl says. But Gongziyi knows how to fight. If the girl has questions, why don't you ask Gongziyi? ”
"No one else is in the capital, where is this girl going to find him."
"The girl sent someone to send a letter to the Dongping Palace, and if you want to come to the Dongping Palace, there must be a way to contact Gongziyi."
Yan Yunge thought for a while, nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, Xiao Yi must have a connection with the Dongping Palace." ”
The maid Abei asked again, "Isn't the girl worried about the villa?" The villa sent troops to aid Qi County, in case it can't be defeated, how is it good? It took the girl years and countless dollars and food to develop a guard camp. Everyone is a treasure piled up with money, and it is distressing to die one. ”
Yan Yunge said: "Sooner or later, the guard battalion will have to go to the battlefield to fight. This time to rush to the aid of Qi County and attack the anti-thieves, it is a good opportunity to experience. Even if I were in the mountain villa, I would agree to send troops to rescue Qi County.
Moreover, Qi County is the barrier of Fugui Villa, once Qi County is broken, the thieves may attack Fugui Villa. There are no walls in the villa, and once the fight starts, I don't know how many people will die. ”
"It's still a thoughtful girl! Hopefully, those thieves won't be bold enough to attack the villa. ”
……
The big thief Sima Dou chose to attack the capital, obviously coming prepared.
It's not the arrogance that everyone thinks, and they don't know whether they live or die.
On the bright side, the anti-thief soldiers are divided into two ways.
dragged the footsteps of the Southern Army all the way and made the Southern Army exhausted.
Attack Qi County all the way and find a place to recuperate.
In fact, the anti-thief is divided into three ways.
The great thief Sima Dou personally led the elite division and ran all the way, looting villages, robbing cities and villas along the way......
looted supplies as military supplies and went straight to the capital.
The capital is panicked!
When the news reached the Southern Army, the Southern General was so frightened that he almost vomited blood and fell into a coma.
If he makes a mistake in judgment and causes the rebels to attack the capital, or attack the capital, he will be 100% killed, his house will be raided, and he will even be exterminated.
Ignoring the anti-thieves in front of him, the general of the Southern Army made a quick decision, ordered the withdrawal of troops, turned around, and galloped to the aid of the capital.
As soon as the southern army turned around, including the anti-thieves who attacked Qi County, they all turned around and pursued behind the southern army.
All coming to the capital!
The southern army marched through the valley area, but unexpectedly, they were ambushed......
The Southern Army was defeated!
Suffer heavy casualties in battle!
The general of the Southern Army led the remnants of the defeated army to break through the siege.
It was only at this time that the general of the Southern Army woke up to the fact that the anti-thieves attacked the capital was fake, and the ambush of the Southern Army was real.
Obviously, Sima Dou has more soldiers around him, and there are experts who know soldiers.
It's no longer the country boy who was despised in the past.
The defeat of the southern army made the situation in the capital crisis.
The general of the Southern Army led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat to the capital, using the capital as a defensive base, and there were not enough troops to go out of the city for the time being.
In the blink of an eye, the situation reversed!
The Gyeonggi area has become a place of defensive emptiness, and there is no decent counterattack, and anti-thieves come and go freely in Gyeonggi.
Countless granges have been plundered.
Countless populations, slaughtered, looted!
With sufficient grain and grass, as well as population replenishment, the strength of the great anti-thief Sima Dou skyrocketed, which was simply unbeatable.
Only Fugui Villa, located in a remote area, has not been attacked by thieves for the time being, but it is also panicked.
Everyone was waiting for the local generals to lead the army to the aid of the capital.
Even, Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi gave an order to the northern front line that he must transfer back a group of men and horses to fight the thieves.
The big thief Sima Dou must be beaten to death!
……
If from the beginning, the great thief Sima Dou did not attack the capital and change the world.
So now, his strength has skyrocketed, looking at the capital with towering walls in front of him, he is moved!
Taking advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers rushing to the aid of the capital had not yet arrived, he wanted to try to attack the capital.
If he gets in, he will have the capital to change the world......
In case you can't get in, it's not too late to think about retreating when the time comes.
Strategists dissuade!
The city wall of the capital is an insurmountable barrier for anyone.
"The city is twelve battles high and fifteen battles wide, and there is no way to pry open the gates of the capital!"
"If you don't give it a try, you know it won't work. If you can't beat it, you can buy it. As long as you buy some people in the capital and let them open the city gates, the capital can go down in one day. Don't you often say that the emperor and the courtiers are at odds. Since there is discord, there is the possibility of bribery! ”
"The time is simply not ripe. The reason why we were able to successfully reach the foot of the capital was because the main forces of the imperial court were all on the northern front, and they were held back by Wuheng and could not draw troops for the time being. Once a few forces to the north turn around, we will not be able to meet it at all. ”
"Hugh wants to grow up others and destroy his own prestige! If you don't fight a dozen, how do you know that you can't beat the so-called main force of the imperial court. Isn't the Southern Army the main force of the imperial court? ”
"Since the Southern Army started decades ago, it was raised by the stepmother, and it didn't even have half of the combat strength of the Northern Army. Moreover, in this operation, the temporary expansion of the Southern Army caused the combat strength to be weakened again, so that we had an opportunity to take advantage of it. General, be careful! The capital can't be beaten, at least not yet! ”
Sima Dou proclaimed himself the general of Shuntian Yingmin, and the people under him called him the general.
The strategist tried hard to persuade him, but he did not convince Sima Dou.
Sima Dou insisted on fighting the capital.
Whether he can win or not is secondary, he is to fight a dozen, so that the emperor in the palace is afraid, the world is afraid, and the world is afraid.
He Sima Dou, after all, one day, will sit on the dragon chair......
……
The defeat of the Southern Army did not seem so difficult to accept.
At least, Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi did not vomit blood and fell into a coma at the moment he received the news.
The southern army retreated to the capital and used the capital as a base to defend itself.
However, Emperor Taining Xiao Chengyi obviously no longer trusted Xue Xue, the general of the Southern Army.
In a court meeting, the emperor dismissed Xue Xue, the general of the Southern Army, from all his posts on the spot and took back his military power.
And to behead Xue Xue, the general of the Southern Army!
The courtiers agreed.
However, it was proposed that the beheading could be suspended.
It is the time to use the army, and at this time, Xue Xue will be beheaded, which may affect the morale of the army.
The emperor accepted the advice and asked Jin Wuwei to take care of Xue Xue, temporarily detain him in the edict prison, and then behead him in the future!
"Ladies and gentlemen, who is qualified for the post of general of the Southern Army now, and share my worries!"
"Your Majesty, Weichen has a candidate, maybe he has a chance to turn the tide and beat the thief to the ground!"
"Oh? I don't know who Aiqing is talking about, who is capable of turning the tide? ”
"Weichen recommended Gongzi Yi of Dongping Wangfu to be the general of the Southern Army!"
