Volume 3: Jun Hu Does Not Return Chapter 266 In fact, the battle situation is not optimistic
Fu Shaohong had just entered the tent with the wine jug, when he saw Shang Jiu, the deputy general beside his father, hurriedly coming in, "Two vanguard generals, the boss is invited." β
Xiao Dongli glanced at Fu Shaohong, and the two walked out of the door knowingly.
When I entered the commander's tent, I could see at a glance that many people had already gathered around him, including the captains and Simas of each battalion, the generals of the leading battalions, a total of more than ten people, all standing around the military sand table.
Seeing Xiao Dongli and Fu Shaohong coming in, he showed a little disdain.
The army is not as good as the court, and the court judges the favor according to the emperor's preference. In the military, respect is determined by merit. Soldiers, only serve the strong.
Fu Sheng stood in front of the sand table, "Okay, everyone is here." You can arrive in Youzhou tomorrow, you might as well speak up! β
Shang Jiu Dao, "Youzhou terrain is complex, it is a border fortress road, once the Beizhao army invades Youzhou, you can directly take the Jiangbei area, and its disaster is not small." β
"That's right." Fu Shengsheng said, "The area around Youzhou is bound to stick to it and not be relaxed. Secondly, Yunyang Prefecture and Hengzhou, which are all military strongholds, cannot let the Beizhao army get close to a single cent. β
Wang Xiaowei said, "During this time, Beizhao has invaded the border and has captured the two cities of Tingcheng and Fucheng. Looking at the situation, it is time to attack Youzhou City in the next few days. β
Shang Jiu said, "Tingcheng and Fucheng and Youzhou City just formed a three-legged situation, and the Beizhao army is now in the middle of the two cities, if you can take Tingcheng and Fucheng, you will have the momentum of the iron bucket, trap the Beizhao army in it, and annihilate it in one fell swoop before the Beizhao reinforcements arrive." β
Everyone said yes.
A group of people, there are many discussions, but they can't escape the paper.
Fu Shaohong listened a little bored, but turned his head and saw Xiao Dongli frowning, and said unconsciously, "What's wrong with the third prince?" β
Hearing this, Fu Sheng, who had not spoken all this time, also raised his head, "The third prince has another insight?" β
"In the battle of husband and soldier, grain and grass go first." Xiao Dong's words are concise and to the point, with only eight simple words.
As soon as the words fell, Fu Sheng's face tightened, and then he said, "You guys go back first, you can think about the battle plan for yourself." When we get to Youzhou, let's discuss it again. β
Everyone saluted, and this was so clear that no one dared to stay long.
Fu Shaohong frowned, "Dad, I'll stay." β
Thinking that he should also let his son listen to the real sound of the battlefield, Fu Sheng nodded, and turned to Shang Jiu and said, "You go outside and look." β
Shang Jiu bowed his head and went out to guard it knowingly.
"The third prince seems to have something to say." Fu said.
In the army, there are rules in the army, Xiao Dongli is a pioneer general, and his status is not high, so no one treats him as a prince. It's just that Fu Sheng cares about the emperor's grace and takes special care of Xiao Dongli, and his food, clothing, housing and transportation are all handled in accordance with the status of the general of the fifth battalion.
Xiao Dong left the road, "The grain and grass have not arrived, how can we fight?" What's moreβ" he smiled faintly, as if Mount Tai was collapsing ahead without chaos, "how many troops can be deployed in the general's hands, I guess you know better than me." β
Hearing this, Fu Sheng frowned.
Fu Shaohong on the side said, "Didn't you say 300,000?" β
"300,000 is the number given by the emperor, but in fact, how many troops have been transferred, the general knows it." Xiao Dongli sat down unhurriedly.
Fu Shaohong was stunned, "What? β
Fu Sheng sighed lightly, "It is said that it is an army of 300,000, but the strength of the Eastern Capital is under heavy pressure and refuses to deliver." The emperor actually did not intend to fight at all, and most of the forces in the DPRK and China unanimously sued for peace. The emperor is just putting on a show! β
"My father asked us to have an army of 100,000 to fight against Beizhao's 600,000 army, which is simply impossible." Xiao Dongli's eyes were slightly cold, "With one enemy and six, there are many barbarians in Beizhao, I'm afraid it will be difficult to climb to the sky." β
If he didn't know that Xiao Dongli had always been unfriendly with the emperor, Fu Sheng wouldn't dare to tell the truth. In today's situation, if you are responsible for everything by yourself, something will happen sooner or later.
With Xiao Dongli to share it together, if there is anything wrong in the future, there will be a prince who can flatten the guilt of the Fu family.
Of course, this is the worst-case scenario.
"Youzhou is a wild land, there is not enough food and grass, and now our 100,000 troops only have enough food and grass for more than a month, even if they save money, it is only March." Fu Sheng was sad.
"Then you can only hold on to the city and wait for the arrival of food, grass and reinforcements." Xiao Dongli let out a long breath.
Now this is also a desperate move.
100,000 vs. 600,000 is a disparity in strength, not to mention ...... How to fight if the food and grass are not ready? If the soldiers are not well fed and clothed, can they still go to the battlefield to fight?
"I will send a request to the emperor to send reinforcements as soon as possible." Fu Sheng's face was not very good-looking.
"When you get to Youzhou, let's see the actual situation first!" Xiao Dong departed, "If it is really as the battle report says, General Shang's method is not a good way to be outnumbered. β
Fu was silent.
Out of the camp, Fu Shaohong hurriedly caught up with Xiao Dongli, "Master, is the battle really so tight?" β
Xiao Dongli signaled him not to speak, and waited until he returned to his camp tent before saying, "It is true that your father is a good general, but there are many rights and wrongs in the DPRK and China, and no one can guarantee that he will be stabbed in the back." Just like the current situation, there is not enough food and grass, and there are not enough troops. But your father went on the expedition anyway, alasβ"
"What a pity?" Fu Shaohong asked.
Hearing this, Xiao Dongli sneered twice, "It's a pity that people are unpredictable. The father didn't want to fight, he just wanted to force Beizhao back. And there are some people in the court who want to take advantage of this, except for your father, or except for me. β
"Why?" Fu Shaohong didn't understand, "My father is stationed at the border and rarely interacts with people in the court, why is he looking for people to be jealous?" β
"Because your father is stationed at the border pass, there are too many strong soldiers and brave generals under his hands. If you want to take back the military power, you must capture the thief and capture the king first. Do you understand? Xiao Dongli asked.
Fu Shaohong frowned, "What about you?" You have no power or power, so why should you be your enemy? β
Xiao Dongli looked at the flickering candle flame and smiled slightly, "Because I am the third prince." β
There are many disputes in the royal family, as long as you are a prince, whether you have power or not, you will become a thorn in the side of others. This is an inevitable outcome!
In all dynasties, brothers fought against each other, and fathers and sons killed each other, are there still few?
Isn't it just a three-foot dragon chair and a piece of the emperor's mausoleum?
Fu Shaohong didn't speak, the royal family was cold, and it wasn't the first time he knew it.
"Master? So what do we do? Fu Shaohong asked.
Xiao Dongli patted Fu Shaohong on the shoulder, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and if they come, they will be safe." β
If the sky dies me, I will fight with the sky; Heaven will not kill me, I will conquer the sky. He fought for her, and even if he fought to the point of being a soldier, he would not back down. In this world, in this world, he can do without it.
As long as she is by her side, it is okay to pour out the world.
Tomorrow you can arrive in Youzhou City, I heard that Beizhao is leading the troops this time is a famous - Fenglihua. This wind flower is not a simple character, as a man, he is extremely good and evil, and he is the youngest patriarch of the Beizhao Holy Maiden clan.
The so-called saintess clan is the guardian group of the Beizhao royal family, and has supreme rights and status in Beizhao. The people of Beizhao believe in saints, which can bring them happiness and light, and in Beizhao, saints are born to belong to the Beizhao Emperor.
Therefore, the kings of Beizhao in all dynasties have appointed saints as queens.
The patriarch of the Holy Maiden clan wears many hats, just like the prime minister and general of Dashuo, combining both positions in one.
The so-called king is just an empty shell, only responsible for the succession of the royal family.
However, since the disappearance of the previous saint and the absence of anyone to inherit the throne, some subtle changes have taken place in Beizhao. The new Emperor of Northern Zhao, Xia Yin, was diligent in government and loved the people, and took back the civil service of the Holy Maiden family, which is equivalent to recovering the position of prime minister.
Although the military power is still in the hands of Fenglihua, the power of the DPRK and China has actually returned to the hands of the emperor.
So Fenglihua wants to use the war to regain the civil rights that originally belonged to her.
From this point of view, the Northern Zhao court is also full of civil strife.
Xiao Dongli stood outside the tent, looking at the cold moonlight. The moonlight was cool and thin, stretching his figure long. He stood there, his hands behind his back, the cold wind blowing through his temples, making the gold ornaments on his forehead slightly emit a charming streamer.
The eyes are gentle, and the corners of the lips are slightly raised.
In his arms, holding her red hijab and wrapping her white jade rose hairpin, she followed her like a shadow, as if she had never been separated.
Ah Jing, I miss you.
I am willing to trust this heart to the bright moon, but I have no wings to fly.
It's late at night, only the melodious sound of Xun, bit by bit lovesickness.
Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, lovesick people are difficult to meet, sit and watch the red candle until dawn.
Xu is really heart-wrenching, Shangguan Jingyu held the Xun in his hand, sat alone in the candlelight, tried to imitate his appearance, changed into men's clothes, and blew the Xun in his hand in a low voice.
Thinking about it makes people crazy, thinking about it for too long, and even I can't tell whether it is her or him at this moment.
Master, you said that people are not as good as before, I remember!
Don't forget the agreement between you and me.
I'll wait for you to come back, wait, wait......
Master, I miss you.
Clenching the Xun in his hand, Shangguan Jingyu looked out of the door fixedly. Fleur stood in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon, the silver moonlight spilling down on her.
Fu Yuan, I am also thinking about Fu Shaohong!
When she set out on that day, she didn't know if she was going to send it.
I pray that we will meet again in this life as soon as possible, and we will sweep away the moth eyebrows and get rid of grievances.
Su Yan was lying on his window, fiddling with the colorful birds in the window, "Cai'er, when do you think I will find the master?" I've been here for so long, and I haven't heard from me at all. You say, what should I do? β
The colorful bird tilted its head to look at her, rubbed its crown feathers with its feet in disgust, and finally flew out directly, flew to Shangguan Jingyu next door, and landed firmly in front of Shangguan Jingyu's case.
Seeing this, Su Yan hurriedly ran out, inevitably slandering in his heart, how could this beast be so lustful, and when he saw Shangguan Jingyu, he stuck to it alive and dead.
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she involuntarily paused at the door, and looked at Shangguan Jingyu calmly, "Miss, can I ask you a question." β
