Chapter 302: The Battle of Yujun (2)

After Lu Ping returned to the station, he moved the station to Maple Leaf Town, which was less than sixty miles away from Yujun City and was the closest place to the people of the East China Sea.

He did not agree with the tactics of Di Xin's siege, he preferred to solve the problem in the form of battle, he looked at his old face every morning when he washed up, his beard and hair were all white, he felt that his time was running out, he had fought all his life, he had been on the wrong side all his life, he was confused in this life.

Lu Ping knew that he would not have to fight again after the Battle of Yujun, and Yu Geng's attitude was obvious when he was in Hanyang City, he hoped that Lu Ping could serve in the cardinal, and His Majesty also meant this.

He looked at the geographical map of mountains and rivers, and was about to make a decision, when Di Xin came in and respectfully bowed his hand and said, "Grandpa, Your Majesty's will has come." ”

Lu Ping felt a sigh in his heart, and a bad premonition arose.

"Grandpa, the imperial court has decreed that you will serve in the cardinal platform within ten days, the privy deputy envoy, congratulations to your subordinates." Di Xin's congratulations are a little empty-hearted, he has cooperated with Lu Ping for many years, and he understands Lu Ping's thoughts too well.

Lu Ping was not angry, but sneered slightly, the unwillingness in this smile to make Di Xin hairy, for a veteran who has been fighting on the battlefield all year round, such an ending is cruel, but this does not mean that Di Xin sympathizes with Lu Ping, Lu Ping is indeed not suitable for commanding the upcoming battle of Yujun, and he Di Xin is not suitable either.

"Who's going to take over the old man?" Lu Ping asked faintly.

"Grandpa, it's Long Tingfei who takes over the handsome seal."

"Long Tingfei? All right! It's your time, and the royal family still trusts their own people more. Lu Ping sat down gently.

Di Xin did not agree with Lu Ping's statement, although Long Tingfei said that he was the fiancΓ©e of the eldest grandson Qingqing, but the transfer of Long Tingfei was not His Majesty's will, but the result of the discussion between Haitang Garden and Shutai, Long Tingfei and the generals in the army The most different point is that he is not only a soldier, but also a politician.

The characteristics of the battle of Yujun are not only that it is so simple to recover, but the most important thing is a smooth transition, and Long Tingfei is the best candidate for Yujun.

Seeing that Di Xin did not answer, Lu Ping understood that Di Xin had no opinion on Lu Ping's arrival, he was really disheartened at this moment, he did not arouse Di Xin's dissatisfaction, he really became a loner, there was no one in the court to support him, and the attitude of the deputy in the army was also very clear, so he got up and said quietly: "The old man is tired, leave the affairs in this army to Di Hou, and the old man will leave for Hanyang City tomorrow." ”

Di Xin was slightly stunned, he thought that the reception of military power was a very troublesome thing, but he never thought that Lu Ping was very cooperative this time, and he had been prepared from the moment he entered the big tent to say the will of the imperial court, but Lu Ping did not get angry during the whole process, and he did not even resist at all.

Lu Ping put the talisman on the table from his arms and strode away from the big tent, maybe he was really tired at this moment, after walking out of the big tent, he felt a little relaxed, a sense of sleepiness hit, it was really time to sleep well, I just don't know if I can see his old handsome in my dream, the old handsome in his heart, Jin Qian.

From the northwest to the southeast, Long Tingfei was in a hurry, even so, it was nearly a month and a half, he was surprised that the imperial court would let him command the battle of Yujun, since the surrender he had never really led the troops independently, most of them were cooperative or joint operations.

Looking at Long Tingfei who was in the dust, Di Xin originally wanted to say something, but seeing Long Tingfei's serious expression, it was difficult to bring up the words to rest.

"Di Hou, the whole army is waiting for your arrival!" Ditzson was the first to speak.

Long Tingfei hurriedly returned the salute, this Di Xin is different from others, he is a lieutenant general in terms of military rank, he is the first three marquis in terms of title, the first three of the so-called marquis, these three people are some county dukes in terms of military merits and qualifications, and even county dukes do not have them, and the marquis is only because of age, the first marquis is Huaihou Xuansong, who was originally named a county duke, but Xuansong resolutely did not accept it, so there was a marquis to enjoy the treatment of a county duke, followed by Huo Youji, the marquis of Yue, Huo Youji's failure to be promoted to the duke The main reason is the "flame" thing, and then this Di Xin, after the new military system, Di Xin was promoted to the Marquis of Chongqing, and he was originally a duke, and Di Xin wrote letters one after another to resign, so he had the title of Marquis of Yu.

"Di Hou, it's serious, I'm just here on order, and Di Hou needs more guidance on the war in this Yu County." The respect in Long Tingfei's words is not pretended, Di Xin has been stationed in the grassland desert for the country before he was transferred to the southeast, and this credit can be surpassed by few people in the younger generation, when Geng Chao was in the Western Regions, he admired Di Xin a lot, and even the King of Qin was full of praise for Di Xin.

"Hahaha! Long Hou, long time no see! At this time, a voice came from outside the tent, very hearty.

Di Xin and Long Tingfei glanced at each other, and both looked at the big tent, only to see Huo Youji coming in with the curtain, and both of them were stunned.

"Don't be surprised, I'm not here to command, I'm also ordered to come to the tent to obey!" Huo You's voice was like a bell.

Then Huo Youji took out the holy decree from his arms, and the two of them looked incredible, the imperial court actually dispatched Huo Youji and half of the White Ape Brigade over for Yu County, which is nothing, Xia Wenyu's Jiaolong also obeyed orders under the command of Long Tingfei, and at the same time asked King Yong to come over as a staff officer and inspector.

This lineup can be described as luxurious, Long Tingfei is the head coach, Di Xin, Huo Youji, Xia Wenyu, Yongwang Meng Jingyi, and the young talents of the Half Dynasty have arrived.

Long Tingfei originally wanted to invest immediately, but now he planned to wait for everyone to arrive before discussing, the battle of Yujun was more troublesome than he imagined, His Majesty's will was only to try to recover it peacefully, but equipping him with this command lineup clearly meant that Yujun must be recovered peacefully.

On the third day after Long Tingfei arrived, all the commanders of the Yujun Battle were in place, and Long Tingfei asked people to remove the decorations in the big tent, but made a round table, the meaning is very clear, there is no distinction between superiors and subordinates, everyone is a staff officer.

"Longhou, the battle of Yujun, the king thought that it was not a gain or loss in one city and one pool, now Xiao Ning's soldiers and horses have retreated to Jiangbei, and only my soldiers and horses are left in the entire south of the Yangtze River, when I came from Hanyang City, I saw Huaihou's men and horses moving eastward, at least our defense is not a problem, the question is where to fight a decisive battle, what do you think?"

"His Royal Highness King Yong is right, Yujun City is the main gathering place of the existing East China Sea Division, but a large number of their so-called East China Sea generals and nobles are in Gusu City and Songjiang City, I think Gusu and Songjiang are also places we need to pay attention to." Huo Youjian expressed his opinion.

"The East China Sea Master of Yujun City will just hand it over to us Jiaolong." Xia Wenyu frowned and said, he had no other ideas, he just wanted to use Jiaolong to defeat the invincible East China Sea Master on the sea.

"Di Hou, how many soldiers and horses do we have now? What about the defense on the other side of the East China Sea? Long Tingfei asked.

"There are a total of 300,000 soldiers and horses in the headquarters, 20,000 in the Huohou White Ape Brigade, and 180 warships and 70,000 soldiers on Jiaolong's side." Di Xin looked at Huo Youji and Xia Wenyu as he spoke, and seeing that the two did not react, he continued: "Gusu has 60,000 East China Sea soldiers and more than 100,000 servant troops, Songjiang has 40,000 East China Sea divisions and more than 30,000 servant troops, Qiantang City has 30,000 East China Sea divisions and more than 70,000 servant troops, Yujun City has 30,000 East China Sea divisions and nearly 100,000 servant troops. ”

Everyone gasped after hearing this, they never expected that the people of the East China Sea would still have such a strong power in the cities of Yujun.

"Huo Hou, can you solve Gusu within ten days?" Long Tingfei asked directly.

Huo Youji thought for a moment and said, "Solve? Long Hou, this? Huo Youji expressed doubts about the word solution.

"Huo Hou, I mean that Gusu City is mainly the location of the generals and nobles of the East China Sea, as long as they are controlled, plus the cooperation of Huaihou, can it be done within ten days?" Long Tingfei hopes to solve the command system of the Donghai people first, so that the Donghai people will fall into chaos.

"Okay! Guaranteed to solve these miscellaneous items within 10 days! Knowing what Long Tingfei meant, Huo Youji replied very simply.

"Di Hou, I and I are trying to attract the attention of the people of the East China Sea in this Maple Leaf Town, so that they can mobilize the main forces to deal with us, what do you think?" Long Tingfei turned and asked.

"Long Hou is so calculating! Just attract them all, where can we talk about peaceful recovery? Di Xin was basically supportive of Long Tingfei's idea, but he was skeptical about the issue of peaceful recovery.

"What does the dragon mean to let Jiaolong blockade the sea?" Xia Wenyu suddenly spoke.

"Xiahou, that's exactly what I mean!"

After that, everyone except Long Tingfei glanced at each other, and Meng Jingyi said, "Long Hou, you are under a lot of pressure!" ”

"Your Highness, let's solve the matter at one time, these bastards in the province have ruined the cities of Yujun, and the future is important." Long Tingfei saw that everyone did not object, and the stone in his heart also fell.

"So! You and Di Hou don't have to think of a way, just tell the king of the East China Sea that he is in Maple Leaf Town, what do you think? Meng Jingyi said with a smile.

Huo Youji gave Meng Jingyi a thumbs up, and then laughed: "He is worthy of being His Majesty's son!" What a spirit! ”

A harmonious pre-military meeting ended successfully.

At the beginning of May, after the complicated confirmation of Meng Jingyi's news in Maple Leaf Town, the Donghai people began to mobilize a large number of soldiers and horses around Yujun, this time the transfer was larger than Long Tingfei and others expected, and the Donghai people even transferred Jinling's soldiers and horses, plus the servant army sent a total of nearly 600,000 horses.

Just when the Donghai generals in Gusu City were about to rush to the front line, the Xuansong Department, which had just arrived in Guangde, suddenly launched an attack on Gusu, but this attack looked more like a temptation, and the Donghai people did not take it to heart.

On May 16, all the soldiers and horses of the East China Sea gathered around Yujun City to prepare for the siege of Maple Leaf Town, but Meng Jingyi, who they were targeting, was in Huo Youji's White Ape Brigade at the moment, sneaking into Gusu City with the army.

On May 17, the mansions of the generals and nobles of the East China Sea in Gusu City suffered a large-scale massacre, which was the handiwork of Huo Youji.

On the second day, May 18, a ship carrying generals rushing from Gusu City to Yujun City in Yihu Lake was sunk, and the generals of the East China Sea were all killed at the bottom of the lake.

On 20 May, Daxuan Jiaolong dispatched from Sanmen Port to encounter the East China Sea Division off the coast of Yujun, and by 27 May, Jiaolong had almost completely annihilated the invincible East China Sea Division at the cost of half of the loss, completely blocking the waterway for the East China Sea people to retreat.

On 23 May, Long Tingfei, who had always maintained a defensive posture, brazenly launched an attack, and surrounded and annihilated all the Donghai people before they withdrew to the cities of Yujun.

As of the first day of June, the battle in Yujun Zhucheng was all over, and with the efforts of the Xuan army, Yujun Zhucheng was hardly hit hard.
