Chapter Seventy-Eight: Cutting Yan (4)
At the military and political conference, not only the chief generals of Fanyang's armies, but even the group of ministers, Xiao Jingxuan also authorized them to participate in this meeting.
Now, there is no news from Huangfu Song's side, but with Huang Fu Song's talent, Xiao Jingxuan believes that within ten days, there will be good news.
Now, in the territory of Yan Kingdom, only Dazhou, Baicheng is not within his control.
This time, Xiao Jingxuan just wanted to take advantage of this court meeting to work together to solve this problem.
However, at the beginning of the court discussion, these ministers sang praises to Xiao Jingxuan, and this alone was not enough. He belittled Emperor Yan of the previous dynasty again, as if he could not reflect their loyalty.
However, when Xiao Jingxuan began to ask questions, one by one began to pretend to be dumb again. I can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Seeing this situation, Xiao Jingxuan was furious and slapped the dragon case in front of the throne with a shocking sound.
Seeing that the new master was angry, the subordinates began to be frightened again, for fear that Xiao Jingxuan would kill him. So, the old minister who was standing at the front when he dedicated the city finally couldn't help but speak.
It turned out that the main man stationed in Dazhou was the son of his family. The old minister promised that when he returned home, he would immediately repair a letter, and he would definitely lead his troops to surrender immediately.
Hearing the old minister's reply, Xiao Jingxuan's gloomy face finally improved a little, so he began to gently ask the old minister's official position. And Haosheng was appeased.
The old minister was overjoyed, so he began to introduce himself, it turned out that this was the prime minister of the former Yan Kingdom. Not only that, but this person is also the national ruler of Yan Kingdom.
After hearing the introduction of this old minister, Xiao Jingxuan's heart was tired. After a brief reassurance, he inquired about the situation in Baicheng again.
As for the guards who stayed in Baicheng, it was a little difficult, and most of the civil and military forces in the court were not familiar with them. I asked for a long time, but I didn't make any good suggestions.
In the end, in desperation, Xiao Jingxuan ordered Hu Yanzhuo and Gongsun Sheng to personally lead the troops of the headquarters, with a letter stamped with the imperial seal of Yan State, and immediately set out and sent troops to Baicheng.
If Bai Cheng is willing to accept the reorganization, it will be fine, otherwise, it will be a word killing.
After the military order was issued, looking at the courtiers who were full of confusion, Xiao Jingxuan was ten thousand unpleasant.
According to Xiao Jingxuan's character, there is only one word, kill. However, after thinking about it again, Xiao Jingxuan still suppressed his emotions.
Although at this moment, Xiao Jingxuan has already controlled the overall situation, but there is still the variable of Dazhou, plus it has just been surrendered, so it is not easy to make a big move for a while. so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
However, during this time, Xiao Jingxuan was not without things to do, after all, there were still a large number of surrendered troops in the camp.
For ordinary soldiers, those who were willing to join the army, Xiao Jingxuan scattered them and filled them into the battalions. Those who do not want to join the army will be given travel expenses and let them return home.
As for the officers, it wasn't so good. These officers must not let them go home. Junior officers are slightly better, while mid-level and senior officers may not be able to settle down in the township. Once the place is disturbed. The consequences are unimaginable.
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Jingxuan filled these people into the personal guard camp along with the officers of the previous Baicheng reinforcements.
There are mature training methods in the guard camp, Xiao Jingxuan believes that as long as he gives himself enough time, he will definitely be able to select the available talents from them, and as for the unusable, they should all die on the battlefield.
Today, there are only more than 200 veterans left in the guard battalion, and the rest of the guards have been sent to each battalion to serve as officers.
It is precisely because of the existence of the pro-guard battalion that Xiao Jingxuan can firmly grasp the military power.
With the addition of these Yan State officers, the pro-guard battalion instantly expanded to about 3,500 people.
Although the number of people has increased a lot, Xiao Jingxuan knows that the combat strength of the pro-guard battalion is not as good as before.
In the coming days, the Guards Battalion must step up its training and restore its combat effectiveness as soon as possible.
So, in the next ten days, Xiao Jingxuan devoted himself to the training of the guard camp.
Of course, in addition to training, Xiao Jingxuan also gave them lessons and explained the art of war. Also keep an eye out for available talent.
Just when Xiao Jingxuan was wholeheartedly training his personal guards, Huangfu Song finally led the army back triumphantly. Hearing the news, Xiao Jingxuan was overjoyed. For this beloved general, something has to be said.
On the same day, Xiao Jingxuan specially came to the city gate to greet Huangfu Song and others who returned triumphantly. In order to show his fancy to him, he also wanted to announce to the battalions that he had clear rewards and punishments.
The results of Luzhou are also amazing. Two thousand enemies were killed and three thousand were captured, while the army of Huangfu Song and others suffered only a few hundred casualties.
For this reason, Xiao Jingxuan specially set up a banquet in the palace to treat Huangfu Song, Zhou Tong and others.
After resting for a few days, on this day, a personal guard came to report that Zuo Chang Shi Ding Wei had arrived.
This made Xiao Jingxuan very happy. Now, the entire territory of Yan Kingdom is about to be taken. It is the time when Ding Weiran is needed to help him deal with political affairs and stabilize the overall situation.
came with Ding Weiran, as well as Xiao Jingxuan's secret guard leader, Zhao Gang.
After the arrival of these two people, as long as Dazhou is certain by then, when the time comes, he will no longer need to have many scruples. Then, the New Deal can be implemented on its heels.
A few days later, a messenger came to report that the Dazhou commander refused to surrender, and at the same time made disrespectful remarks and disrespected Xiao Jingxuan. Hearing this news, Xiao Jingxuan was furious in his heart.
However, there is good news, that is, the White City has fallen. To be honest, when Xiao Jingxuan heard the news, he was very surprised.
You know, there are 10,000 defenders in the White City. In addition, in the white city, all kinds of grain and grass are available. If it really starts, Xiao Jingxuan estimates that it will take a lot more effort.
With the surrender of Baicheng, its troops were also reorganized, but regarding the reorganization of the surrendered troops, the battalion owners did not dare to decide on their own, but reported the matter to Xiao Jingxuan.
In response to this situation, Xiao Jingxuan ordered that for the guards of Baicheng, they could open the net. All the defenders, including the officers. Those who are willing to unload their armor and return to the field can pay their travel expenses.
If they don't want to, the officers are filled into the guard battalion. The remaining soldiers were filled into Qi Biao and Qu Qingshan's troops.
At the same time, Xiao Jingxuan ordered that Qu Qingshan be transferred to the main general of Baicheng. Defend against barbarian attacks.
After that, Xiao Jingxuan ordered, Ye Xiong, Hu Yanzhuo, Gongsun Sheng, and Yang Xiong generals to lead their troops and horses to follow Xiao Jingxuan to Dazhou.
Today, the number of Chinese troops under Ye Xiong's command has reached 20,000, and the number of the remaining three battalions has also increased slightly.
An army of 60,000 attacked a Dazhou city with only 30,000 defenders, and Xiao Jingxuan believed that it should be captured.
Before leaving, Xiao Jingxuan called Zhao Gang. Now, the nobles in the city are of little use to themselves, and the existence of these people may still be an obstacle to the future New Deal.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Jingxuan gave Zhao Gang absolute rights. Let it clean up.
At the same time, in order to prevent Zhao Gang from running out of manpower, Xiao Jingxuan even left a warrant, so that at a critical moment, Qi Biao could send troops to assist.
As for the new policy, Xiao Jingxuan instructed Ding Weiran to suspend the implementation, but the preparations can already be done.
This includes the selection of suitable officials and the rebuilding of local government offices. Restoring people's livelihood everywhere and so on can be carried out. Just wait for Xiao Jingxuan to level Dazhou, and the new policy can be officially implemented.
When the army marched out and came to Dazhou City, Xiao Jingxuan looked at Dazhou City in front of him and wanted to laugh.
It turns out that this Dazhou City is not a city, but a checkpoint. This level exists to defend the country.
And not far from the level, there is a bazaar. In terms of the size of the bazaar, it is at most a township, with a population of only a few thousand. And most of them are shops and prostitution houses.
It seems that the existence of these shops should be to serve the defenders of Dazhou City.
The entire city of Dazhou has no defense power internally. Xiao Jingxuan couldn't figure out where this guard had the confidence to refuse to surrender.
However, the arrival of Xiao Jingxuan's army did surprise the Dazhou guards.
The defender never dreamed that originally, the defender refused to surrender just to get more benefits and increase his price. Who would have thought that Xiao Jingxuan would start to attack so quickly. I really didn't have any preparation at all.
Xiao Jingxuan didn't even order the army to set up camp. Instead, they attacked directly.
As Xiao Jingxuan's army charged, the soldiers under the city pass began to flee one after another.
Just kidding, how can you organize a resistance without the leadership of an official, plus there are mostly infantry in the checkpoints. How to be able to block the strong iron horse.
When you face an enemy that is several times your size, and the level of elite is far superior to your own. The Dazhou defenders were instigated.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Jingxuan and the generals under his command were speechless. I knew that if I sent a battalion of troops casually, I would be able to solve the problem quickly.
However, it is too late to say anything. With the surrender of one of the defenders, Xiao Jingxuan soon controlled the situation in Dazhou City.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the battalion owners will begin to gather and surrender troops, for the culprit of this war, Xiao Jingxuan ordered the Dazhou guard to show the head of the army.
As for the others. Xiao Jingxuan was not as merciful as before, and all the officers were slaves in the mines around Fanyang. The ordinary soldiers were all charged into the Tuntian soldiers. After all, in life, you always have to pay the price for your choices. ,
After solving these people, Xiao Jingxuan ordered Gongsun Sheng to serve as the chief general of Dazhou City, and at the same time, 10,000 Tuntian soldiers were handed over to him.
Before leaving, Xiao Jingxuan pulled Gongsun Sheng aside and gave him some advice. After that, Xiao Jingxuan immediately led the army back to Yizhou.
For Xiao Jingxuan's triumph so quickly, everyone who stayed behind was shocked. That's too fast, isn't it?
At the banquet in the evening, when everyone learned about the battle, they burst into laughter.
With the triumph of Xiao Jingxuan, it means that Yan Guo is officially included in Fanyang's territory, and it also means that the new deal has begun.
