Chapter 327: Ploughing the Court and Sweeping the Caves
"Of course you have to attack. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Gu Wen sat lazily in front of Xiang Yan and said very easily:
"The Northern Song Dynasty and the Minyue Plain in South Vietnam are all chaotic, and they look similar, but they are actually completely different. ”
"The chaotic fighting in the Minyue Plain was mainly between the regular army of South Vietnam and the separatist forces in various places, and their purpose was to monopolize Minviet, and any third-party forces that indiscriminately entered would become the priority target. ”
"The Ganshan Plain was a class struggle, a battle between the lower commoners, the lower samurai class, and the aristocratic class. ”
"The most fundamental purpose of the largest low-level civilians is just to survive. Therefore, although their individual combat effectiveness is the weakest, their overall strength is actually the strongest. Of course, their strength lies in the fact that the common people are the creators of Ganshaan's wealth. ”
"The strength of the low-level samurai class is actually the weakest, they are not good at individual combat effectiveness, and they lack command and discipline. If it were not also facing the same pressure to survive, it would be the first layer to be eliminated. ”
"Needless to say, the aristocratic and wealthy class returned to the plains only a small part, although the individual force was good, but the number was too small. Although their most direct enemies were low-ranking samurai, many of these low-ranking samurai came from the civilian class. ”
"It's interesting that people who break the village rules in the countryside may be immersed in pig cages by the villagers, but if they are killed by outsiders first, the villagers will often avenge them. ”
"So an enemy is not necessarily an eternal enemy, and an enemy of an enemy is not necessarily a friend. ”
"After these months of scuffle, in fact, all three parties are exhausted. Especially the low-class civilians, in the face of the basic needs of survival, coupled with the continuous infiltration and brainwashing of the Qingyun people, have easily accepted external saviors. The time is ripe. ”
"After the explanation, Shenghui gold coins are 30 million, thank you!" Gu Wen is now thicker-skinned. Every time I make a suggestion, I ask for a consultant's fee directly. It is said that it is to save some money for the family.
In fact, before Xiang Yan summoned Gu Wen, he had already made up his mind to send troops. Find Gu Wen, that is, ask more.
Sure enough, Gu Wen fully played the role of a strategic consultant: "What I told you, in fact, you know everything. What I say to you is actually what you say to me. ”
This little money is actually not in Xiang Yan's heart. Xiang Yan didn't talk nonsense, and directly paid for the guests.
Gu Wen staggered to his feet, and sighed: "When you sing about wine, the geometry of life, such as morning dew, there is not much time to go." ”
After Gu Wen left, Xiang Yan summoned Deng Can, director of the National Security Bureau, and advised: "I suspect that Gu Wen is going to run, you send someone to keep an eye on it." ”
Duncan nodded: "Your Majesty is wise, Gu Wen is not a person who is willing to die, and it is inevitable to escape." ”
"I just don't know if he's running away today, tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. I don't know if he's flying or retreating. Is it a person or a family. ”
"What is the strategy of our national security in response to Gu Wen's possible escape? Is it to arrest him in advance? Or to kidnap his family so that he does not dare to move? Or to clear all foreign aid and escape paths, or to let him go?"
Xiang Yan covered her forehead: "Don't make so many assumptions, just keep an eye on it." The ultimate strategy is to kill him at the last moment if he has the ability to escape the pursuit of the three major factions. ”
Duncan nodded and said, "I understand, it's just that what is the basis for the last moment? When you leave home, escape from the capital, escape from the Chu State, escape from the Qingyun Continent?"
"Gu Wen has excellent talents, and if he is captured by hostile forces, our country will be in danger. So at the last moment, it will be too late if you don't kill Gu Wen. Aiqing thinks for herself. Xiang Yan was already familiar with Duncan's trivial style, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Duncan took the order.
In Mangrove Bay Town, somewhere on the Ganshan Plain, Shi Wu, a "Qingyun Volunteer", led a few like-minded people to bid farewell to Gui Lianqiu, the acting mayor of Mangrove Bay Town.
Gui Lianqiu was actually just a teacher in the town, and after the powerful ran out and the food in the town was robbed, he was elected as the acting mayor of the town.
Shi Wu is still dressed as a businessman, but he has changed from a young and wealthy rich man to a bitter little wandering businessman.
Two and a half months ago, Shi Wu, a small traveling businessman, and his friends "encountered bandits on the road, suffered heavy losses of goods, and were seriously injured, so they had to stay in Mangrove Bay Town." ”
The kind-hearted acting mayor Gui Lianqiu looked at the remaining dozens of carts of rice and grain, and took in this group of traveling merchants of unknown origin. Facts have proved that Gui Lianqiu has a very keen political sense.
The rice they brought saved the townspeople of Mangrove Bay who were threatened by famine. At the same time, Shi Wu and others taught the townspeople how to build tunnels, began to evade urban guerrillas, and learned to fight back in a limited way.
They also brought with them the ideals of the so-called "free and equal Qingyun people", which gave hope and hope to the townspeople who were abandoned by the Song Kingdom and robbed and killed by their former neighbors and friends, so that their faith collapsed.
With the victory of several small-scale anti-Japanese wars, the successful experience of Mangrove Bay Town spread rapidly in the surrounding villages and towns at a flying speed, so that the villages, towns and towns learned tunnel warfare and guerrilla warfare.
Villagers who believe in the "Qingyun people" can also obtain Shiwu, who is said to have a cornucopia, and conjure white flowers and rice out of thin air.
The legend of the cornucopia also attracted the covetousness of urban guerrillas and even several groups of aristocratic forces. But Shi Wu's cornucopia is very sharp, not only can turn white rice, but also black living people.
These black-clad warriors who appeared out of thin air were powerful, and the noble soldiers and urban guerrillas were vulnerable. And at the end of each battle, the black-clad warrior returns to the cornucopia and disappears.
So Shi Wu and his gang have almost become legends among the people.
In fact, similar legends spread everywhere on the Ganshan Plain, with different names of the protagonists. So much so that some people believe that this is a living immortal who rescued the suffering and rescued the suffering, descended to earth, and had countless doppelgangers to save people everywhere.
There are also people who set up tablets for this immortal, and the incense continues. Hundreds of years later, a large folk sect was formed, with more than a billion followers.
Of course, Gui Lianqiu was not religious, he looked at Shi Wu with a pair of squinted eyes, and whispered, "You are from the Chu State?"
Hearing this, the friends quietly clenched their swords, ready to attack at any time.
Shi Wu raised his hand to stop and replied calmly: "Mayor Gui actually knew about it for a long time, didn't he?"
"In fact, it doesn't matter which country you are from, everyone is a Qingyun person. The most important thing is that everyone is human and has the right to live. What do you say?"
Gui Lianqiu said: "In fact, the culprit who brought us these disasters is you. ”
The friends pulled out their swords for an inch, and as long as Gui Lianqiu made a slight move, they stepped forward and split the corpse.
Shi Wu remained silent: "What really brings disaster is everyone's grievances. Who's to say who's innocent?"
"Huh. Gui Lianqiu smiled: "So Qingyun people are really a good gimmick." ”
A friend of mine said," Shi Wu also smiled: "It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, a good cat is one who can catch mice." ”
"Whether it's a gimmick or a reality, it's better to give people hope than to bring despair. What does Mayor Gui think?"
"Not bad, not bad. Gui Lianqiu smiled even more happily: "Where is Brother Shi going? South or North?"
"North. Shi Wu didn't hide it.
"So precious goodbye. Gui Lianqiu arched his hand and said, "Actually, it's best not to see it." It's just that I can't see it, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get it, right?"
Three months after the truce, when early autumn came, the six billion Northern Expeditionary Army of Chu set out from the Zhengzhou line and began to sweep across the Ganshan Plain.
The soldiers are in the direction of the front, and the civilians in the villages and towns are all looking forward to the wind.
Wherever the Northern Expeditionary Army passed, Qiu did not commit any crimes. Behind the Northern Expeditionary Army, a large number of caravans entered the plain with food supplies, giving hope to the civilians.
In fact, most rural farmers only need to survive this month before they can harvest the barley. The Ganshan Plain is worthy of being a rich land,
Although it was destroyed by the war, it was still enough to feed everyone.
The main battles took place in various cities.
It was not so much a battle as a unilateral crushing of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Chu State.
There are no less than 100,000 large and small cities in the Ganshan Plain, which belong to tens of thousands of nobles or samurai forces.
Most of them have fought a bitter war, and only half of their breath has been fought, and some cities are even in a stalemate.
Although the city's defenses were mostly complete, it was a pity that few people could wield the heavy machinery of war. If all the combat forces are not evacuated and damaged, the defense of the city can barely resist a few times.
Now in the face of the extremely powerful army of the Chu State, almost no city can withstand a moment or three.
According to the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the intensity of this siege battle is not as fierce as that of visiting the kiln. This statement has been widely agreed by Qinglou and wild kilns everywhere.
In less than ten days, half of the Gan-Shaanxi Plain was annexed by the Chu State.
In the rest of the cities, the aristocracy and wealthy who originally wanted to shout two sentences of "defend the family and defend the country, and die with the city" remained silent, and once again set off a frenzy of escape.
This time it was much more embarrassing than the last time. Because of the fierce competition, hundreds of ferry boats on the Huanglong River capsized in one day. Shi Wu, who once again dressed as a wealthy businessman, and his friends were almost thrown into the river to feed the giant turtles of the Huanglong River.
Fifteen days later, the first vanguard of the Northern Expeditionary Army appeared on the south bank of the Huanglong River, across the river from the main force of the Song State. (To be continued.) )
