Chapter 144: The Hero
The next day, an astonishing piece of news spread throughout Nanchu.
The vassal state of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, Fengguo, dispatched an army of 100,000 to break through the White Bone Pass in the south of Tengguo, and at the same time, Hengguo dispatched more than 100,000 troops to storm the headquarters of Tengguo, and Tengguo faced the attack of armies on both sides and could destroy the country at any time.
Teng is only a second-class vassal state, and it doesn't matter if it is destroyed. The key is that Teng is a strategic location, once Teng falls, the eastern defense line of the Southern Chu Dynasty will be broken, and the Eastern Qi army can continue to pour in and attack Southern Chu.
There is an agreement between Southern Chu and Eastern Qi, and only a few days ago Eastern Qi ordered Hengguo to suspend his troops, and now Hengguo knowingly committed a crime, and Feng Guo also got involved. If Hengguo and Fengguo didn't want to betray Eastern Qi, there was only one explanation - this time the use of troops was the meaning of Eastern Qi.
In addition, before the Great Zhou stormed Longmen Pass, all parts of Southern Chu were terrified, thinking that Eastern Qi and Great Zhou were going to join forces to attack Southern Chu. The two major dynasties attacked Southern Chu, and Southern Chu could withstand it? It is estimated that it will not be long before Southern Chu will be destroyed, and they will all become slaves of the country.
Mi Xiong urgently convened a grand court meeting, and made a decision in just two hours, and Sima Yue could be dispatched to the Eastern Theater. At the same time, all the armies of the southern theater were mobilized to support Tengguo. On the other hand, the 300,000 troops of the Central Theater guarding Chujing were all dispatched to help the south and east. Chujing also has the Chu Army, as well as the Yulin Army, where the city is high and thick, and there is no need for so many troops to guard it.
In addition, Mi Xiong issued a decree to each of the vassal states, telling them to mobilize all but the necessary remaining armies to the east and south.
Qi Xiong knew very well that this time Dongqi was not playing, but wanted to destroy Nanchu. This is a war of annihilation, a war of great unification, and a battle to change the pattern of the entire continent. He didn't want to fight a war, the problem was that if he didn't fight Southern Chu, he would be destroyed, so he had to raise all his energy and gather all the forces of the entire Southern Chu to fight against Eastern Qi.
All of a sudden, the wind and clouds surged, and the four seas shook.
Before the Western Jin Dynasty and the North Vietnam had digested the news, the Great Zhou suddenly launched a fierce attack on the North Yue Dynasty, and it was not a tentative attack, and as soon as it came up, it mobilized a million troops to storm it. The chaos in the entire East Shenzhou is officially kicking off.
The five major dynasties, the four major dynasties are at war, and the remaining Western Jin Dynasty has not moved for the time being.
At this point, Mi Xiong didn't even dare to ask for help from the Western Jin Dynasty. What if a hungry wolf is invited for help? You must know that more than ten years ago, the Southern Chu and the Western Jin Dynasty had a war, and the Western Jin Dynasty was beaten by Ye Xiangfo, and hundreds of cities were captured, and finally a county was ceded, and a huge amount of compensation was paid. In case the Western Jin Dynasty pretended to promise to support and mobilized a large army to join forces with the Eastern Qi to attack Southern Chu, I am afraid that Southern Chu would be completely finished at that time.
I have to say that Liang Yufeng is a character!
After Li Yunyi sent someone to summon him, he gathered all the royal children of Tengguo on the same day, and sent them all to Chujing without any property. As soon as the White Bone Pass was broken, he began to pull gold and silver treasures, and the valuable carts were pulled to Chu Jing's side.
He knew very well that Tengguo would not be able to keep it, and what he could do now was to keep the royal family's incense, and at the same time try to keep as much property as possible. If Nanchu is not destroyed, then there is still hope that Nanchu will help them restore the country. He didn't go himself, he personally went to the front line, and sent boxes of silver from various states and counties to the front line, and after arriving at the front line, he distributed boxes of silver, and made it clear that he would be with all the soldiers, even if he fought to the death of a soldier, he would never retreat, and live and die with the soldiers.
Liang Yufeng was a good emperor in Tengguo, and he was quite loved by the people in Tengguo. Now he is driving the expedition in person, and he has to live and die with the soldiers, and the morale of the country is great. Liang Yufeng did not pay attention to the Feng State army that had already swept through the hinterland of Teng Kingdom, but mobilized all his military forces to attack Heng Kingdom.
He knew very well that the army of Southern Chu would definitely come to help, and the destruction of the Teng Kingdom was doomed. He only had two ways to go, either fight to the death, or immediately withdraw the Teng army and abandon the Teng country.
If you evacuate, the Teng Kingdom will be destroyed in an instant, and the army of Eastern Qi will drive straight in, so there will be enough time to arrange, and it will be very difficult to counterattack when the army of Southern Chu comes over. Once the Eastern Qi army gained a firm foothold, the situation in Southern Chu would be very bad.
If Nan Chu wins the victory in the end, the court will definitely be held accountable at that time. If Teng Guo does not resist and withdraws his troops directly, it is very likely that he will become the last scapegoat. At that time, it will be extremely difficult for Tengguo to restore the country, and even all the royal children of Tengguo may be executed.
So Liang Yufeng chose to fight to the death, as the lord of the country, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. As the lord of the Teng Kingdom, how could he abandon his people? He fought to the death here, which could buy time for Nan Chu and allow him to vent his inner anger.
He died fighting for Nanchu, so as long as Nanchu was not destroyed in the end, then Nanchu would not be able to treat his descendants badly, and he would definitely help Tengguo restore the country. As long as the country is restored, what is the army and wealth? If there is territory, everything can be owned, and the Liang family can still be prosperous and rich, and they will still be the masters of this land.
Liang Yufeng's fierce counterattack made Hengguo's side a little confused. The Teng Kingdom is about to be destroyed, Liang Yufeng does not preserve his strength, and he actually wants to play with his life? Can the Teng Kingdom army afford to play? The Teng State army is finished, what will the Liang family rely on to play in the future?
Liang Yufeng mobilized the army here before, and in terms of the number of troops, it is more than that of Hengguo, but there are 200,000 standing troops of the second-class vassal states, more than 10,000 died some time ago, more than 10,000 died in Baiguguan, and 170,000.
On the other hand, there were only 120,000 troops on the Heng side. Here, Liang Yufeng drove the expedition in person, and the soldiers of Tengguo regarded death as if they were at home and attacked frantically. None of the powerhouses of Tengguo left, and the four great grandmasters went into battle in person, and actually pressed the army of Hengguo back.
In five days, the Tengguo army pressed Hengguo all the way, forced the Hengguo army to counter-pressure to the territory of Hengguo, and killed more than 40,000 troops of Hengguo, and more than 20,000 died on Tengguo's side. On the other side, the 30,000 cavalry of the Feng Kingdom had already arrived at Teng Wangcheng, the capital of Teng Kingdom, and easily defeated Teng Wangcheng, who did not have a trace of troops.
The follow-up army of the Feng Kingdom marched quickly and did not occupy the passing cities, what they needed to do was to destroy the living forces of the Teng Kingdom and occupy the cities in the north of the Teng Kingdom. Then block the reinforcements of Southern Chu and stabilize this piece of torn hole, so as to let the Eastern Qi army come in continuously.
The 30,000 cavalry left 10,000 to defend the Tengwang City, and the remaining 20,000 rushed towards the eastern front, preparing to join forces with the Hengguo army to destroy the Tengguo army. One of the great generals of Feng Guo had a headache, and originally thought that Teng Guo would be defeated on all fronts after learning that the two armies were attacking and the White Bone Pass was broken. The most unfortunate thing is that Liang Yufeng wants to mobilize an army to come back to defend the capital, right?
But he didn't expect Liang Yufeng to be a madman, completely abandoned Tengguo, chased and beat Hengguo, and now he has broken the two cities of Hengguo and entered the hinterland of Hengguo...
However, the general of Fengguo is not worried, because the 200,000 cavalry of Eastern Qi is already on the way, and the follow-up army of Hengguo is also coming, and when their 20,000 cavalry passes, it will be encircled and suppressed by three parties, and the hundreds of thousands of troops of Liang Yufeng and Tengguo can only be wiped out.
Liang Yufeng's side continued to press Hengguo's side all the way to chase and fight, and after waiting for two days, Hengguo's army was forced to retreat into the western city of Fuli City. Liang Yufeng did not attack the city, but led the army to bypass Fuli City and kill towards the hinterland of Hengguo!
Dozens of miles after detouring to Fuli City, Liang Yufeng issued an order - he let all the 150,000 troops of Tengguo disperse, divide into fifteen armies, and kill in all directions. The target is all the cities of Hengguo, Liang Yufeng told Tengguo's army murderously. In Hengguo, they can do whatever they want, burning, killing, looting, and raping. He has only one request, to withstand the territory of Hengguo for ten days, and after ten days, everyone will flee for their lives and surrender to Dongqi!
Now the entire Dongshenzhou is paying attention to the war here, and the news has only spread in half a day, and the entire Dongshenzhou is in an uproar, and countless people are emotional. Although Liang Yufeng, the lord of the country, is only on the ninth grade, his courage and momentum are incomparable to those of countless great masters.
Liang Yufeng is preparing to die generously with hundreds of thousands of troops, and he is going to die vigorously and beautifully. He wants to wash Hengguo with blood, so that he can not only take revenge, but also drag down the pace of the 200,000 cavalry of Eastern Qi and buy time for Southern Chu.
The hinterland of Hengguo is now empty, and the most important thing is that Tengguo's 150,000 troops are divided into fifteen, and it will take a lot of time to defeat and kill them all. If we ignore the fact that the countless cities of Hengguo will become empty cities and the corpses will be everywhere, Hengguo will definitely be seriously injured and will not be able to recover for decades.
"Liang Yufeng is really a hero!"
After Li Yunyi received the news, he stared at the map for a moment, nodded and said: "His strategy and tactics are really imaginative, he is put to death like this, but he has a chance to survive!"
"How is that possible?"
Wu Jian rolled his eyes and said, "Unless he abandons his soldiers and sneaks away, he will definitely die." He's in a tiger's den, and there are armies on all sides. ”
"Let's gamble!" Li Yunyi said with a smile: "I bet that he can live, and he can still walk out of Hengguo alive with tens of thousands of troops!"
"Bet on it!"
Wu Jian became interested, grinned and said: "If you want to play, play bigger, if you lose, then go to the Wonder Pavilion to be a rabbit master for a day." I arrange for you to accompany which lady you have to keep to make her happy, of course... You can be disguised. ”
"You wicked taste!"
Li Yunyi smiled dumbly, he looked at the map and said, "Okay, I'll bet with you." If you lose, you will say that you are a fool in front of the civil and military officials during the court meeting!"
"Medium!"
