Chapter 1252: Contradiction
Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 inforeadx;? The sudden enemy from all sides caught the Ningnan army by surprise, and the Ningnan army did not dare to fight with the army of the city-state of Solan at all.
You must know that most of the carriages they are escorting now are loaded with weapons and ammunition, and this Wanning Southern Army soldier is equivalent to standing on a powder keg, even if it is just an insignificant stray bullet, it may detonate this huge powder keg and blow them up to pieces.
If it is only a small group of enemy troops, the Ningnan army can still think that it is a coincidental encounter and have the confidence to forcibly repel it, but now it is encountering tens of thousands of enemy troops, and so many enemies can be ambushed in advance in their southward route, obviously the enemy is well aware of their own actions, and has made careful arrangements in advance, where does the Ningnan army dare to continue fighting,
The battle broke out suddenly, ended quickly, and finally ended with Wang Cheng's surrender.
With such a result, even Asino was dumbfounded,
He originally still had the mentality of fighting if he could, snatching a batch of treasures and escaping if he couldn't, but he never expected that this Ningnan army would be so vulnerable, and the battle between the two sides ended ahead of schedule before it had time to be fully launched.
After the shock, what followed was ecstasy, Asino was so excited that he danced with his hands, his mouth was so happy that he proudly accepted the surrender of the Ningnan army with the attitude of a victorious army.
Asino thought that this great victory would capture priceless treasures, but when he searched, he was dumbfounded, there was no jade at all in the boxes loaded on the carriage of the Ningnan army, let alone gold, silver and jewelry, half of which were grain and grass, and the other half were all firearms and ammunition.
Don't look at Arsino as the commander of the legion, but he has never seen so many weapons and ammunition in his life, and it is not hundreds of boxes, but thousands, thousands of boxes,
Asino finally realized that things were not simple, and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to Cai Huang.
When he first received the battle report from Asino, Cai Huang's nose was almost crooked, and he asked Asino to attack Volo City, but he ran south to attack Novi City.
Two cities, one south and one north, are incompatible, and their political and strategic significance cannot be compared.
However, seeing the content behind the battle report, Cai Huang was also taken aback, the Ningnan army of only 10,000 carried tens of thousands of firearms, countless ammunition, more than tens of thousands of boxes, obviously, this Ningnan army did not go south to fight, but to enter Du Ji and transport supplies to Du Ji's Ningnan army,
In the case of such a fierce battle between the two sides, the Ningnan Army was able to divide a corps and transport so many weapons and ammunition to Duki.
Cai Huang quickly replied to Assino, first he praised Assino's proper command and the heroic performance of the Solan city-state army, and then he instructed Assino to destroy all the captured weapons and ammunition, and as for the captured officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army, they were immediately escorted to the front line.
To destroy so many weapons and ammunition, Asino is also very reluctant, but it is really useless to stay, the weapons of the Solan city-state army are provided by the Wind Country, and the weapon specifications of the Wind Country are different from the weapon specifications of Ningnan, the ammunition of the Ningnan Army, the Solan City-State Army can't use it at all,
Asino finally obeyed Cai Huang's command this time, destroyed all the weapons and ammunition captured from the Ningnan army, and as for the captured grain and grass, he took it to the front line and gave it to Cai Huang as a gift.
At this time, the main battlefield of the Volo city-state, the Jinsk city-state army was fighting with a corps led by Ye Nantian, and Cai Huang's fifth army was advancing to the rear of the Ningnan army, wanting to cut off the logistics supply line of the Ningnan army, so that the 200,000 Ningnan army that entered the Volo city-state to fight became a lone army.
However, when the Fifth Army advanced to Hump Mountain, it was killed by the Ningnan Army stationed here.
The main peak of Hump Mountain is two large mountains, one on the left and one on the right, located on both sides of the road, and if you want to pass through Hump Mountain, you must pass through the canyon between the two main peaks.
And now, the two main peaks are occupied by the Ningnan army, if the wind army is forced to pass, it will have to be attacked by the Ningnan army on the top of the mountain on both sides of the canyon.
The strength of the Ningnan Army stationed in the Hump Mountain is not much, there are only three corps, but it is just such 30,000 people, which is stuck in the way of the Feng Army, making it difficult for the Feng Army to cross the Hump Mountain.
In the past few days, Cai Huang has made all kinds of attempts, but the natural danger of Hump Mountain is really easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the wind army can't attack it for a long time, but its own losses will be huge.
Just when Cai Huang was anxious, the army of the city-state of Solan led by Asino arrived, and at the same time brought the captured 10,000 Ningnan army,
When Cai Huang inspected the prisoners of the Ningnan Army, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought about it that day, he asked a battalion of Ningnan soldiers to be pulled out and placed at the foot of Hump Mountain.
Then, he ordered that all the soldiers of the 1,000-strong Ningnan Army be sentenced to death.
Don't look at the earth-shaking changes that have taken place since Cai Huang joined the army, but the temperament in his bones has not changed, he is ruthless and ruthless, in order to achieve his goal, he can do whatever it takes, and he will do whatever it takes.
In front of the defenders, Ling Chi was carried out on the prisoners of the Ningnan Army, this strategy was too vicious.
At the foot of Hump Mountain, it has become a slaughterhouse, and the heart-rending screams of the people resounded through the valley and clearly reached the ears of the defenders on the top of the mountain.
Ling Chi's capital punishment is not something that anyone can execute, it requires a professional executioner, who can make the prisoner suffer thousands of knives without dying, Feng Jun is of course not so professional when he executes, but it can still be done if a person takes two or three hundred knives without dying,
On the first day, Cai Huang brought two battalions of the Ningnan Army to continue to carry out the collective Lingchi, and on the third day, Cai Huang increased the number of the Ningnan Army to three thousand.
Three thousand people were stabbed together, and the scene at the scene was no longer something that normal people could bear, it was no different from hell on earth, and many soldiers of the Solan city-state army just ran over to take a look, and they were stunned on the spot,
After three days of torture, the defenders on Hump Mountain finally couldn't bear it, and the people's mental defense line was completely destroyed.
Cai Huang is waiting for this, losing the reliance of natural danger, in his eyes, the 30,000 crazy and irrational Ning Nanjun is not worth mentioning at all,
He commanded the Fifth Army Corps to respond calmly, and soon formed a situation of entrapment against the 30,000 Ningnan Army.
An army of 30,000 people, a whole three corps, the battle lasted until after dark, it was gone, and on the battlefield, there were corpses of the Ningnan army everywhere, and there were broken corpses everywhere, and the corpses were stacked on top of each other, and the blood flowed like a river,
The battle of Hump Mountain was a big victory won by Cai Huang's independent command in the real sense.
Although his methods were despicable, the strategic significance had been achieved, after the Feng army occupied Hump Mountain, it cut off the back road of Ye Nantian, and also cut off the connection between the Ningnan army and Ningnan.
The loss of Hump Mountain was a heavy blow to the Ningnan army in the territory of the city-state of Volo and to the Ningnan army in the territory of Duki, frdo
Of course, the primary hero of this great victory was not Cai Huang, but Arsino, who was crooked.
This series of battles occurred on the battlefield of Duki and the battlefield of the city-state of Volo, which was a chain reaction after Shangguan Xiu's successful sneak attack on Jieya.
The situation of their own side in the main battlefield of Duki is precarious, the battlefield of the city-state of Volo, their own side has fallen into passivity again, and the Ningnan court has fallen into a panic.
It stands to reason that at this time, Ningnan should immediately send Jun Shengtian, the general with the highest prestige, to lead the army to Duji or the city-state of Woluo to stabilize the critical situation on the front line in time.
But Jun Qiming's return to Shunfeng Country directly led to the new emperor of Ningnan, the eldest grandson Bohao and a large number of ministers in the court, no longer 100% trust Jun Shengtian, and even many ministers secretly gave the eldest grandson Bohao a sparse advice, suggesting that the eldest grandson Bohao must not hand over the command of the rescue army to Jun Shengtian.
In this regard, the eldest grandson Bohao also thinks so,
First of all, Jun Shengtian was not his descendant in the first place, when Huang Ziyuan and Huang Zihao competed for the throne, the Jun family has always remained neutral, it seems that the Jun family has given up taking sides, no one can be offended, there is no risk, but the price is that the Jun family has not won any favor from the new emperor,
Secondly, Jun Qiming is a direct descendant of the Jun family, and he can defect to the Wind Country, at least it shows that the Jun family does not have unwavering loyalty to the new emperor, who dares to guarantee that Jun Shengtian will not follow in his footsteps and also defect to the Wind Country.
At this time, the eldest grandson Bohao's heart is also very complicated, he is afraid of Jun Shengtian, but also admires Jun Shengtian's ability very much, as long as Jun Shengtian is sincerely loyal to him, Jun Shengtian will definitely be able to stabilize the situation on the front line.
Just when the eldest grandson Bohao was hesitating, Jun Shengtian did two stupid things, the first was that he gave the eldest grandson Bohao a sparse and asked the eldest grandson Bohao to establish the eldest son Changsun Xiongce as the crown prince,
The eldest grandson Bohao is not very old, his eldest son Changsun Xiongce is only two years old, Jun Shengtian suggested that he should be crowned prince when he first ascended the throne, what does it mean, is he looking forward to his early death, or waiting for the eldest grandson Xiongce to ascend the throne, he can have the merit of recommendation,
The canonization of the crown prince, this has always been a taboo for the royal family, unless the minister and the emperor are really on good terms, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister has reached the level of intimacy, otherwise whoever meddles in this matter is not far from death.
Jun Shengtian obviously did not reach this kind of friendship with the eldest grandson Bohao, and his advice had made the eldest grandson Bohao extremely dissatisfied.
Not long after this incident, Jun Shengtian did another stupid thing, that is, he took the initiative to ask the eldest grandson Bohao to fight.
To say that before, the eldest grandson Bohao really had the heart to let him lead the army to stabilize the situation on the front line, but with Jun Shengtian's recital, the eldest grandson Bohao has dispelled this idea, and now Jun Shengtian took the initiative to ask for help, which made the eldest grandson Bohao shudder.
At this moment, in the heart of the eldest grandson Bohao, Jun Shengtian's invitation is not to go out to stabilize the situation on the front line, but to ask himself for military power, what is he asking for military power, is he going to depose himself and set up a new king,
Jun Shengtian's two letters were like two knives, deeply inserted into the heart of the eldest grandson Bohao, making the eldest grandson Bohao's jealousy of him reach an unprecedented level.
For this matter, even later historians are puzzled, how could such a smart Jun Shengtian write such two letters,
Maybe he mispositioned the relationship between him and the eldest grandson Bohao, maybe he was really thinking about the overall situation of Hao's heavenly kingdom, thinking that the crown prince could be canonized at this time just in case.
But in any case, his two letters made Jun Shengtian's position in the heart of the eldest grandson Bohao plummet, which also directly led to the abandonment of the eldest grandson Bohao and the use of the Wei general Zhou Chaoxian to command the army and reinforce the front line.
Enable the Wei general Zhou Chaoxian, which was announced in public by the eldest grandson Bohao in the court, after the dispersal of the dynasty, Jun Shengtian's face was white, perhaps at this time, Jun Shengtian realized that his two letters had touched the emperor's bottom line,
When Foreign Minister Zhang Jiuwei asked Jun Shengtian what he thought of His Majesty's order for General Wei to go on the expedition, Jun Shengtian's reply was: "The barrier outside Haotian will be gone, and there will be a million troops, and I don't know how many people will survive."
