Chapter 54: The Great War Begins

It was a dilemma, but someone quickly made a choice.

"Fan Lao, this war, what you want is experienced, although the younger generation has the heart to serve the country, but the lack of experience, staying here, I am afraid that it will become a burden, so this war, the younger generation withdrew, the younger generation commanded the army, and it should be dispatched by Fan Lao, I have nothing to say."

One person spoke, and soon, there was a second, a third...

One after another, about half of the dozen or so sons present chose to quit.

Of course, it hurts to hand over the army, but what is it compared to your own life?

Fan Wenzhong nodded, looked around, and asked again, "The opportunity is given to you, who else will quit, answer quickly, if you miss it this time, you won't have a chance, you think about it." ”

Zhao Ang standing in the crowd, his eyes flashed, and his body leaned forward unconsciously, but at this moment, Zheng Liang stood in front of him, although he didn't speak, but his smiling gaze still made Zhao Ang retreat.

"Okay, since there is no withdrawal, then the old man is welcome."

"Come on, send a team of scouts to escort them back to Beijing, and the rest of the people will wait for me to obey my orders."

Fan Wenzhong did not delay, and immediately gave an order to arrange for this group of withdrawn sons and brothers to leave the city, and then looked at the people present and said coldly.

"The whole army listens to the orders of the commander, the town army tower, the northern city is guarded by 10,000 soldiers in the city led by the old man, the Xicheng district is in charge of Xie Cang's split mountain army, and 5,000 infantry, the Dongcheng district is in charge of Zheng Liang, and the southern city is in charge of Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan."

"Go quickly, don't delay."

The order was issued, and everyone received the military order, and they led the troops to their respective cities.

Among the four urban districts of Zhenjun City, the greatest pressure is on the North and West Towns of the city tower.

The least pressure is in the Nancheng District in the rear, which is also the reason why Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts after hearing the order and did not speak.

And Su Qi'an's identity is a staff member, similar to the duties of a military advisor, so he naturally stayed in Beicheng District and stayed with Fan Wenzhong.

Su Qi'an is not dissatisfied with this arrangement, Beicheng District seems to be dangerous, but with Fan Wenzhong, a veteran, no matter how much frontal impact there is, it can withstand it.

Moreover, Beicheng District also assumes the responsibilities of the headquarters, and all kinds of military reports will be transmitted as soon as possible, Su Qi'an can just take this opportunity to analyze it carefully and see if there can be a loophole in the Darong army.

The order was issued, and the entire town, like a starting war machine, began to operate.

All the people in the city were ready, waiting for Fan Wenzhong's call, and this city full of excitement was immediately filled with a thick blood.

Just as the town military city began to operate and defend, the assembled Daei army on the opposite side also began to act.

As Fan Wenzhong, Su Qi'an, and Zheng Liang thought, the main direction of the attack of the assembled Darong army is not Zhenjuncheng, at least not for now, it is a naked show-off.

Don't look at the Tenth Army City of Ningzhou, there are 300,000 soldiers and horses, but unfortunately it is only a passive defense, all of them are scattered, and they will not take the initiative to attack at all.

A military city is no more than twenty or thirty thousand people, and Da Rong's harassment cavalry has one or two thousand.

As long as he takes Ningzhou, with this military feat, he can definitely crush the eldest prince, and the crown prince will be his.

Therefore, no matter what, he is bound to win Ningzhou.

In the middle of the 80,000 troops, on a high platform, Kukshu sat on a large tiger skin chair, and a large knife was stuck in front of him.

He didn't speak, but the ruthlessness that unconsciously emanated from his body made the surrounding soldiers dare not approach.

Only Liu Shengming went to the high platform unhurriedly.

Cook Shu glanced at Liu Shengming and said, "Mr. Liu, this kind of show-off of yours doesn't seem to have a deterrent effect on Liangren, and this kind of gathering speed seems to have failed." ”

Liu Shengming arched his hand and said without hurrying or slowing, "Second prince, if you are shocked by Liangren, others may be afraid, but for that veteran, it is not worth mentioning at all." ”

"The second prince has been dealing with Fan Wenzhong for many years, if she can make the other party surrender by relying on deterrence, then she is not Fan Wenzhong."

"Haha, Mr. is right, you cool people understand your own people, to be honest, His Royal Highness still admires Fan Wenzhong very much, but it's a pity, this old guy doesn't eat soft and hard."

"Emperor Liang is also lucky to have such a defense master, but in front of the Darong Iron Cavalry, any defense is vulnerable, Mr. Liu, it's up to you this time, don't let the palace down."

"Second prince, rest assured, everything is under control."

Soon, the assembled Daiei army, similar to the order, began to scatter in all directions.

In just a few minutes, at least 50,000 of the 80,000 troops gathered by Daei left towards the two wings.

In front of the town army, there were only 30,000 troops.

It seems that the strength of the two sides is about the same, and the town military city is the defending side, with the high walls of the city and the thick walls, with 30,000 troops in front of it, it is basically impossible to conquer the town military city.

Fan Wenzhong and Da Rong have been dealing with each other for so many years, how can they not see the purpose of the other party.

There is no way for 30,000 troops to capture the town and military city, but if they want to besiege it, it is more than enough.

As long as you can trap a large defensive city like Zhenjuncheng, so that it cannot respond and support, and send heavy troops to storm one of the military cities, and when the time comes, one by one, Ningzhou's defense is just a joke.

Regarding the weakness of Ningzhou's defense system, how could Fan Wenzhong not know that the 300,000 army, like nails, was scattered all over Ningzhou, and there was no order to take the initiative to attack.

The so-called passive defense, which seems to be like an impregnable wall, is actually found to be flawed, and then it will be vulnerable.

Regarding this question, Fan Wenzhong reacted to the imperial court more than once, but the reply he got was: Ningzhou's defense system for many years has not been lost, and it was rashly changed, fearing changes, and put forward opinions to reject it.

Fan Wenzhong has a heart, but he is also helpless.

Su Qi'an couldn't hear the deeper meaning of the court's words, and if he took the initiative to attack, he needed to mobilize more troops, even if the court believed in Fan Wenzhong.

But once the military generals, especially the old generals, control it more, it is difficult not to have a rebellion.

Therefore, in order to prevent the emergence of symptoms, the best way is to kill them directly.

Su Qi'an looked at the military newspaper in his hand, and listened to Fan Wenzhong's narration in his ear, and that sense of helplessness also arose.

All they can do now is to be in their position and do their duty, and the rest is not their turn to worry about.

Fan Wenzhong was able to talk to Su Qi'an openly, on the one hand, Su Qi'an did provide some valuable strategic ideas, but more importantly, through conversation, Fan Wenzhong found that Su Qi'an was a rare talent.

It can be said that the change in Su Qi'an is quite large, and the solicitation of Su Qi'an has been revealed several times during the period.

But every time, Su Qi'an focused on the battle in front of him, and he didn't want to think about anything else.

Fortunately, they are all Fan Wenzhong's henchmen here, if they are those boys, if Fan Wenzhong has this kind of meaning to them, I am afraid that everyone will agree if they don't want to think about it.

What is Fan Wenzhong's identity, not to mention that he has been guarding the border for many years, full of prestige, and the big and small generals of the imperial court, which one of them sees it, and he can't call Fan Lao.

As long as you take the line of Fan Lao, the future is limitless, at least in the military general system, it is appropriate to be taken care of.

But Su Qi'an refused, this is not a brain show, what is it?

Su Qi'an's refusal was not clear, but he had his own plans, and his purpose never changed.

This time he was only invited to come, in order to repay the kindness of Cang, when the war is over, Su Qi'an will still return to his hometown and accumulate strength in Dongshan Village, no matter what happens, he will have self-protection.

As for stepping on the military commander system, it is still forgotten, the meal must be eaten step by step, if you go too fast and too high, you will inevitably follow.

No matter where it is, whether it is a civil official or a military general, as long as there are people, there will be intrigue, so this matter, long-term consideration, or silent development is the king.

For Su Qi'an's refusal, Fan Wenzhong felt sorry in his heart, but he also respected Su Qi'an's decision.

For this talent, I admire him even more.

Military newspapers continued to be delivered, and the figures in the lobby began to be busy, and the Daei army had already attacked.

At present, the defense of the four districts is not a big problem, as long as it is in accordance with Fan Wenzhong's orders, the town and military city are basically not lost.

As for the other nine military cities, Pham Van Chung also had a strategy to deal with, although he could not support it, but the army of Darong was only 80,000.

If you want to really capture the military city, where is it so easy, he Fan Wenzhong is known as a master of defense, but he is not called in vain.

As long as it can withstand three rounds of attacks, the morale of the Darong army will definitely be frustrated and it will be dragged into a stalemate, and then it will be the home field of Pham Van Chung.

Time passed minute by minute, and the military reports were handed over one by one, and everything was according to Fan Wenzhong's expectations.

The ten military cities were all attacked to varying degrees, but all of them survived with little losses.

Fan Wenzhong nodded, put down the military newspaper in his hand, walked to the lookout, and looked at the attack of the Darong army at the moment, although the attack was fierce, but the attack was obviously frustrated.

At this time, Fan Wenzhong suddenly said, "Xiao Su, are you the queen of the royal family?" ”

Fan Wenzhong's question, Su Qi'an was a little stunned.

Su Qi'an is indeed the queen of the royal family, and his ancestor is the brother of the founding emperor Su Yi, who was named the king of Yongchuan.

It's just two or three hundred years of branches, and by Su Qi'an's generation, the thinness of the bloodline is negligible, and the so-called royal relatives are just a joke.

Anyone who understands this matter will know Su Qi'an's identity, but this kind of identity can only be a joke when he says it.

Therefore, neither Xie Cang nor Fang Jingzhi would talk about this.

At this time, Fan Wenzhong brought it up, which made Su Qi'an a little puzzled, but Su Qi'an didn't say anything and nodded slightly.

Immediately after Fan Wenzhong's opening, Su Qi'an's inner doubts were immediately solved.
