Chapter 603: A Slap to the Head
"I agree with Mr. Yang Ming's opinion that this matter should be done sooner rather than later, and the sooner the war is ended, the sooner the people can rest assured. Before Wu Wending's words were finished, Fang Hong directly interrupted him.
Wu Wending glanced at Fang Hong with some dissatisfaction, this person is thin and weak, how to do things so recklessly, Nanchang is the largest city in Jiangxi, if you want to capture it, you must have to spend a lot of effort, if the governor is tired because of lack of rest, then what should the rest of the people do?
He suspected that Fang Hong didn't have a sense of the overall situation, and Fang Hong also felt that this old boy was not doing things simply enough, just a Nanchang Mansion City, and there were just some remnants of the defeated army in it, and he alone was enough to calm it down.
This is the ass that determines the head, the two are at different levels, and the way to look at the problem is also different.
"Okay, that's it, let me know, everyone will rest from now on, get ready to eat, and set off early tomorrow morning. Wang Shouren made the final decision and suppressed all the voices.
......
Just when Wang Shouren's side was in full swing and preparing to attack Nanchang City, King Ning's side encountered a big trouble. He led more than 10,000 people and rushed straight to Anqing, but he was full of bags.
Anqing is also a capital city, plus relying on Luzhou, Chizhou and Taiping behind the three mansions, when King Ning attacked, they gathered a large number of people, hid in the city, strictly guarded and defended, resolutely did not open the city gate, and King Ning died and consumed.
Originally, there were only two results of this consumption, one was that people from the rest of the Jianghuai provinces sent troops to reinforce, so that Zhu Haochen could return. The other is that King Ning's five thousand elites arrived and broke through Anqing Mansion in one fell swoop.
However, because Fang Hong led the five thousand elites to run away directly, King Ning's second possibility was directly stillborn.
"Where is Sun Jinglin, it's been almost ten days, even if you climb, you should climb over!" In a place less than twenty miles away from Anqing, King Ning's more than 10,000 troops were all stationed here.
In a big tent, King Ning was pacing anxiously, since ten days ago, he ordered Sun Jinglin to come to Jiujiang to support. Because Sun Jinglin delayed for three days before leaving, Zhu Haochen didn't have the patience to wait any longer, so he decided to go to Anqing first, and then let Sun Jinglin speed up his march.
But it's been so long, but he hasn't even seen the shadow of Sun Jinglin's army, which makes him feel extremely annoyed.
"Report, Jiangxi emergency order. At this moment, a dusty scout, galloping all the way like a large camp, the horse under his crotch spewing out rough air from his mouth and nose, obviously having reached a limit.
The scout pressed his horse and quickly flipped down, but it was evident that his body was also very tired, and he immediately stumbled under his feet, and almost fell to the ground.
Several soldiers immediately stepped forward to help him, and the scout took a letter from his bosom and handed it to one of the soldiers. The soldier didn't dare to delay, and quickly walked to King Ning's tent, and handed it over to one of King Ning's personal soldiers.
"There's news from Jiangxi!" Zhu Haochen also heard the movement outside, and immediately walked out, snatched the secret letter, and read it quickly.
"Wang Shouren, the governor of Ganting, ordered a levy, gathered 80,000 people, and went to Nanchang to ......" Looking at the content in front of the letter, although Zhu Chenhao was surprised, he already had a premonition in his heart. However, he did not believe that Wang Shouren could come up with so many soldiers, and generally speaking, in order to strengthen his strength, he would inevitably falsely report the number of soldiers, which also became a common practice. It's the same with him, who has only over 10,000 men under his command and claims to be 100,000, and that's the same thing.
Zhu Haochen quickly finished reading the previous paragraph, but when he saw the latter paragraph, his eyes suddenly burst out, and green tendons appeared on his forehead.
"Five thousand guards mutinied!" He looked at the ordinary words, only to feel as if someone had smashed his chest, and countless golden flowers appeared in front of his eyes.
In order to train these 5,000 honor guards, he smashed a lot of belongings, and in the most difficult time, he even began to sell the jewels in the mansion, just so that these honor guards could receive the best training.
But in such a situation, these guards of honor turned out to have defected, and there was no warning at all.
"No, no, it's not without warning, after half a year, I haven't received a single letter from those scribes, and all communication is through the class. Zhu Haochen suddenly realized something, since last year, because of the incident in Baitouling, he transferred all the honor guards to Fuzhou, and he never inspected the barracks once. And he was also frightened because of the incident in Baitouling at that time, but he neglected the management of the honor guard.
"Damn, Sun Jinglin, I treat you well, why do you want to betray me!" he roared in a low voice, his eyes turning red. Sun Jinglin is his old subordinate, and he has been with him for nearly 20 years, just such a person, he actually swallowed his main force, how can he be willing.
Of course, he didn't know that Sun Jinglin had lost power as early as half a year ago, and was basically placed under house arrest in the camp and even some thousands of households, except for those who were loyal to Fang Hong, the rest were all controlled.
"Come on, launch a fierce attack, attack for a day, and strive to take Anqing as soon as possible, and after a day, we will return to Nanchang!" Zhu Haochen originally carried out a small-scale test in order to take Anqing safely, and planned to wait until 5,000 guards came over before launching a general attack. Who would have expected that after waiting for so many days, he only waited for the news of the mutiny of the guards, which completely broke his plan.
This also made him realize that if he didn't go back soon, something might happen to Nanchang City. You must know that there are only 5,000 defenders in Nanchang, and the enemy has won the surrender of the 5,000 honor guards, adding up to another 20,000.
Zhu Haochen's order was quickly passed down, and soon, all the soldiers were under the leadership of their respective commanders, and quickly killed to Anqing Mansion City.
"Woooooooo Those soldiers in Anqing City had been watching the enemy's movements in the distance, and when they saw Zhu Haochen's troops attacking, they immediately blew their horns and made everyone ready.
"Set up a ladder, prepare a shield, archers, and firecrackers to press the formation!" "For so many years, although the army of the guard station has been slack, it has a bit of a foundation, at least this siege routine is still there.
Shields can withstand arrows and poured gold juice from above, and archers and musketeers can suppress attacks from the city's head, and when properly coordinated, can greatly reduce casualties.
