781 - There is no foolproof city
Yao Yu smiled after listening to Fu Yan's words: "Even if he is not stupid and incompetent, but he is in my way, I still have to clean him up." Or do you think the people of Yizhou will live better under Li Xiong's rule than under me? ”
Fu Yanzai thought about it carefully: "No, not to mention that under Li Xiong's rule, even when the Marquis Wu of the previous dynasty was in power, the people didn't dare to think of such a life." ”
Yao Yu smiled: "That's it, as long as the people want it, don't talk about Li Xiong." Even if Sun Wu and Wu are resurrected, I will also defeat you. ”
Fu Yan was dumbfounded.
Yao Yu's heart is too high.
"I'm going to leave tomorrow, what, do you want to come with me?"
Fu Yan thought for a while: "If Da Sima says so, then I have no problem." ”
Yao Yu looked surprised: "Your grandfather is here?" ”
Fu Yan smiled: "I understand grandpa's situation, and it won't help if I stay." Instead of this, it is better to follow Da Sima and fulfill his grandfather's unfulfilled last wish, which is the greatest respect for him. ”
"You're really different, okay, then pack up and set off with me tomorrow. I'll leave it at that. Lu Bi Hexiong, Brother Xuan Ce, left. ”
As Yao Yu spoke, he led the four of them out.
Fu Yan looked behind him, and he didn't send him off, but after watching Yao Yu go out, he turned around and went back.
In addition to Fu Yifu, Wang Xuance also muttered a little resentful: "My lord, that little kid is too much, you said let's come to see Fu You, but he won't send us away." Is there such hospitality? If you want me to say, what you promised Fu You is superfluous. ”
Yao Yu laughed softly: "You can't say that, people may have their own ideas." Anyway, I think this kid is quite interesting. ”
Yao Yudu said so, and Wang Xuance couldn't help anything else.
No, he had to sigh and say, "Okay then." ”
Let's go back. There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Yao Yu rushed to the barracks from the Great Sima Mansion and prepared to go on the expedition.
When he walked to the city gate, Fu Yan was already waiting here.
It's just that Fu Yan was dressed in white, which surprised Yao Yu.
"My ancestor died last night, and when my grandfather went, I asked him to tell Da Sima. The land of Yizhou has always been easy to defend and difficult to attack. It's not easy to win. But since ancient times, there has never been a foolproof city. No matter how strong the city defense is, there are always problems inside. ”
Yao Yu listened to Fu Yan's words, and after being silent for a few seconds, he nodded: "I wrote it down." ”
After speaking, Yao Yu passed Fu Yan and left.
Who knows, Fu Yan chased after him.
This made Yao Yu a little surprised: "Your grandfather passed away yesterday, don't you stay to pay tribute?" ”
Fu Yan shook his head: "No need, my father and uncles are here, and there is not much more than me." What's more, the people are gone, what's the use of paying tribute? How to fight the guests and how to be reluctant to be filial? These are all imaginary. Instead of wasting time doing these things, why don't you take advantage of this effort and do more practical things, Da Sima, you say, is this the truth. ”
That being said, not everyone can do what you think. Okay, then, let's go. ”
When the words fell, Yao Yu urged the horse to go.
Fu Yan also followed.
The group came to the barracks, where the army had been ready to stop for a long time.
Seeing Yao Yu coming, an order was given, and the army urged to set off in the direction of Jiangling.
At the same time, in the inner courtyard of the palace, the news that Yao Yu had set off was sent, and Ban Rou, Jiang Jiao, and Ban Zhi, who were chatting with Yang Xianrong, were shocked, and their hearts were more or less worried and reluctant to separate.
Yang Xianrong pursed his lips lightly: "With the ability of the husband, it is not a problem to take the land of Yizhou." At that time, the court will be even more lively. ”
Left and right and Ban Rou have already opened the skylight, and Yang Xianrong has never concealed his relationship with Yao Yu anymore.
No, her words came out, and the three of Ban Rou didn't know what to say.
If Yao Yu pacifies Yizhou, then the court will definitely be lively, this is certain.
It's just that I don't know how long it will take for Yao Yu to pacify Yizhou, and how many soldiers will be killed in battle.
Yizhou is not as good as Jiangdong.
At the beginning, Jingzhou was located in the upper reaches of Jiangdong, and the gateways of Jiangdong, Lujiang and Yuzhang, were occupied by Yao Yu, if Yao Yu wanted to make a move, Jiangdong had no chance to fight back.
But Yizhou is not, Yao Yu took a Yong'an, after Yong'an, there is a military town like Jiangzhou, how can he take it casually.
This is something that Ban Rou, who is not familiar with military affairs, can several of them understand, can Yao Yu not know?
Putting aside the idea of a few women, Yao Yu's army went all the way up the river, and a month later, that is, in the first month of 317, they arrived in Jiangling City.
Here, there are already Shen Lin, Kong Xiao, Lian Jun, Yao Gong, and Fang Yi waiting.
Each of the five led 5,000 soldiers and horses from their headquarters and prepared for war.
The 40,000 soldiers and horses of Yao Bao, including Xiangyang, were also in place, waiting for Yao Yu to come and give the order for a general attack.
On the day Yao Yu returned to Jiangling, the people spontaneously came to greet him.
Anyway, Yao Yu came from Jiangling, and he has developed in Jingzhou for so many years, and it is reasonable for the people to be grateful to him.
No, after celebrating with the people in Jiangling City for three days, Yao Yu gave the order for a general attack.
He appointed Yao Bao as the commander of the Northern Army, and the governors Shen Cheng, Wu Jiong, Yu Chao, He An, Ma Bang and other generals attacked Shangyong and harassed Hanzhong.
It is said that Yao Bao is a feint attack on the road, but if he can really take Hanzhong, he can send troops south from here, either to knock Zitong, or, cross the mountains and rivers into Yizhou Langzhong, and insert a knife in Li Xiong's heart.
As for Yao Yu's main force of 60,000, he sent troops from Yong'an to attack Jiangzhou.
Shen Lin, Kong Xiao, and Yao Gong were appointed by Yao Yu as the vanguard of the army, leading the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, opening roads and building bridges in the mountains and rivers to provide convenience for the army.
A total of 100,000 soldiers and horses from the two routes set off in a mighty manner, and 300,000 logistics men began to transport supplies to the army with all their strength.
In this battle, Yao Yu can be said to have taken out all his family resources, and he must succeed in the battle.
In this regard, he claimed to raise 300,000 troops, in order to shock the morale of Li Xiong's troops before the war.
In fact, Yao Yu never thought of using troops without Li Xiong.
After all, he couldn't hide such a big move.
Li Xiong must have planted spies in his territory.
He must know that he can't hide the behavior of mobilizing troops and horses from all sides.
Rather than this, it is better to exaggerate his own strength, so that Li Xiong can not figure out the truth and reality.
In fact, just like Yao Yu thought, Li Xiong began to transfer troops and horses from three months ago after learning about Yao Yu's actions.
