Chapter 8 3 5 Nervous Strips
Jingzhou, the main city of Nanjun.
After reading the information on the size of Xiangyang, Baling, Jiujiang and other counties, Yuan Jitong fell into deep thought, and his face was not as calm as before, which showed that he was excited and struggling in his heart.
The Red Dragon Society and the Dongjiang faction have been attacking Nanjun for a long time, and now they are almost eating half of Nanjun.
Generally speaking, when a large force invades, the imperial court will generally implement the strategy of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness, reducing the enemy's troops and food sources.
Tongchuan, Xicheng, Jiangxia, Jingling and other counties did this before, although they were lost in the end, but they persisted for a lot of time, which can be regarded as inhibiting the development speed of the villain forces.
Yuan Jitong only implemented the "strong wall" in Nanjun and did not "clear the wilderness".
First, it is because of the limited military and financial resources.
Second, whether it is the Red Dragon Society or the Dongjiang faction, the foundation is extremely strong, and there is no need to fight to support the war.
In addition, Yuan Jitong also has a small abacus, thinking that if the Red Dragon Society and the Dongjiang faction start a killing ring, it will inevitably push the people's resistance to ** and further ruin the reputation of the two factions.
After all, Nanjun is a large county, and there are many civilians.
This kind of small abacus is not what a thorn history should have, but there is no way.
However, Xiang Kui of the Dongjiang faction was not a reckless man, in the process of eating those small towns, he did not commit large-scale massacres, and when it came to plundering, he did not do too much, he would always leave some rations for people, and occasionally bring out one or two ruffians who robbed the people's daughters and slaughtered them in public.
After stabilizing a little, Xiang Kui also learned from Nie Jin and started to win the hearts of the people, although he didn't learn much, but it always had some effect, so that Yuan Jitong's little abacus didn't start.
If this trend continues, it won't take long for the Red Dragon Society and the Dongjiang faction to attack the main city of Nanjun.
At that time, it is uncertain how long Yuan Jitong can hold out.
The Jingzhou Rebellion has been going on for too long, and the imperial court has not had large-scale support, so the foundation of Nanjun is far from being as thick as the outside world imagined.
So many battles have been fought and many counties have been lost. Among them, the battles of Jingling, Jiangxia, and Chuyang counties were the majority, and too many troops were lost, and in addition, Baling, Jiujiang, Yiling and other counties were also in a state of "making ends meet".
finally waited for a Liu Jingming, but the troops who came over to support him were not too many, although they were all elite.
Now it has ushered in a turnaround.
Li Wuchang, the leader of the French commander's army, was injured, and the territory was unstable.
The Red Dragon Society and the Dongjia faction's army in Nanjun stopped the pace, and gathered tens of thousands of troops to march to the west of Xiangyang, obviously wanting to take the opportunity to stab the French Shuai's army, and it was a ruthless one.
As for the army of the commander, there was no movement of retreat at all, and tens of thousands of horses were still pressed at the junction, ready at any time.
Zuo Qian didn't know what kind of demagoguery he had suffered, so he gave up taking the initiative to fight against the hastily assembled imperial troops from the southern counties of Jingzhou, and temporarily shrank back to consolidate his territory.
Although Sikong Sheng continued to relax the pressure on the Dongjia faction, there was no sign of sending troops to Nanjun.
Based on these points, Yuan Jitong saw a little hope.
Can you get the southern counties to draw out some relatively capable troops to give up the action of pulling Zuo Qian's hind legs, quickly enter the southern county, and then do something while the Red Dragon Society and the French Shuai Army are in full swing?
You might even be able to get a lot of money!
"Yuan Tingshi wants to take the initiative?" Liu Jingming could naturally see the subtleties.
"General Liu, it is undeniable that this is a great opportunity!" Yuan Jitong really wanted to hear Liu Jingming's opinion, after all, Liu Jingming was a veteran of the battlefield, and he had fought many tough battles with the Khitans, and he was extremely experienced.
"No!"
Liu Jingming shook his head firmly, "Even if we can pick up a little cheap, we can't completely reverse the situation." Why did Zuo Qian suddenly let go of his mouth, didn't he have the intention of letting us, the Fa Shuai Army, the Red Dragon Society, and the Dongjiang faction fight to the death?
Sikong Sheng is not easy to match, and I am not surprised that he can attack with all his strength at any time. In addition, in order to fight against the Khitans, Nie Jin's suppression of Luoyang has been much smaller, and the king of Shu has merged with Feng Zhongyi, so he can free up troops to put pressure on Jingzhou. If the Red Dragon Society, the Dongjiang faction and the Fashuai Army really fight, let's just sit on the sidelines. If we take the initiative to join in the fun, if we lose the slightest bit, we will send the southern county away, and at that time, even if there are more troops in the south, it will not help. ”
It is better to seek stability.
Yuan Jitong sighed: "I don't know. It's just that I've been pressed too hard these days......"
Liu Jingming said in a deep voice: "Lord Yuan, since the Khitans broke through Yanmen Nie Jin raised their arms and shouted, although the imperial court has lost most of the country on the surface, there are still elite troops. Once the King of Beihai, the King of Qi, and Zhou Sheng win several big victories, or even directly defeat Tang Feihu, they will usher in a turning point. ”
Yuan Jitong nodded, "You're talking about pressing ...... Eh, in your opinion, will Su Han be more terrifying than Nie Jin? Will he stab the Beihai King at a critical moment?"
Nowadays, everyone knows that Bai Dao Fu Su Han, and with a very sinister idea, he is blooming in Yangzhou and Xuzhou on the one hand, winning the hearts of the people, collecting small vision, and observing Nie Jin's death battle against the Khitans, ready to take over Nie Jin's stall at any time.
No one is optimistic that Nie Jin will resist the Khitan Iron Cavalry.
There have already been battle reports, the Khitans are almost on a rampage, and the Nie army has suffered heavy losses.
If Su Han stabbed the King of the North Sea at a critical moment, and then took over Nie Jin's stall in a big way, not only would the imperial court not usher in a turning point, but it would also have to face a huge reactionary force that was even more difficult than Tang Feihu.
Liu Jingming exhaled, "It's hard to say...... In terms of personal courage, Su Han is weaker than Nie Jin, but when it comes to the background and the degree of chicken thief, Su Han is far better than Nie Jin, and no one can say how far he can develop.
But one thing, I am sure, the knives of the King of the North Sea and the King of Qi are not so easy to stab, at least they have to be a lose-lose situation. ”
......
Li Wuchang and Xu Minglong quietly came to the junction of Fangling, Yiling, and Xiangyang.
"Stunned, hello!" Zhao Xun was very excited.
Wei Xin and Yang Su were also overjoyed. Wei Xin also ran forward to feel the pulse diagnosis, and soon found that Li Wuchang's physical fitness and internal strength had reached a higher level, and he couldn't figure it out at all.
"It's totally good!"
Li Wuchang replied, and continued: "Everyone has worked hard these days, and the pressure is very high, right?"
Zhao Xun sighed: "Don't say it, the pressure is too much...... In the past, I saw that you were always leisurely and leisurely, as if you didn't do anything, but when you suddenly fell, everyone panicked, and felt that Fang Ling would fall tomorrow. ”
Xu Minglong said: "Actually, this is not bad. I was seriously injured a few times during the incident, and each time I had to break up a large group of people. ”
Yang Su echoed: "This is the so-called group of dragons without a leader, without a leader with big nerves, it is so unconfident." "I want to talk about "Da Yan Gui Gongzi" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
