Become a feudal king from today

Fan Yang.

After Chang Wei came back, he summoned the generals to make a sand table and frequently simulated attacking three cities on the sand table.

At the same time, Yanzhou Detective Horse traveled between the three cities and Yanzhou to investigate the situation of the three cities.

Based on what they know.

At present, there are 60,000 Qi soldiers stationed in Leling City.

Eighty thousand Qi soldiers and horses were stationed in the plain.

And Yangping stationed 70,000 Qi soldiers and horses.

In addition, the plain walls have the most artillery, a total of two hundred and forty.

One hundred and eighty artillery pieces were placed on Leling City.

One hundred and sixty artillery pieces were installed in Yangping City.

"The Han family and the Wang family established the Qi State, and the two families' troops were combined into one, which was roughly around 500,000. In order to defend these three cities, they invested nearly half of their troops, which shows that they are very aware of these three cities. importance.”

On this day, another sandbox simulated confrontation ended, and Chang Wei pointed to Pingyuan County on the sandbox.

"These are just the troops of the Han and Wang families, not counting the troops of the powerful families under their command." Qin Shan added: "Musketeers are easy to train. In the future, it will be easier for them to raise an army. If they are aggressive, their military strength will be reduced." More."

When the generals heard this, they sighed.

The powerful clans are experts in foreign wars, but they are experts in civil wars.

Therefore, the Qi State established by the two kings of Han showed great strength in all aspects.

If he had not met King Yan, Qi would have been the largest country in the north.

After the founding of the country, it may last for one or two hundred years.

It's just that there is no if, it's their own fault for being unlucky and meeting King Yan.

"Therefore, it is even more necessary to capture these three cities. We must build Jinhe into a natural moat similar to Yanguan. In this way, the flames of war will not be able to burn to His Highness's territory, and we can also take the initiative to advance and attack. But Shou."

Clearing his throat, he pointed to Pingyuan City, "Although His Highness did not give us a time limit, the sooner we can capture these three cities, the better to prevent long nights and nightmares. Therefore, the war starts here."

The generals looked at the plain, and they all had no objections.

Pingyuan City is located in the middle of the three cities.

As long as you capture this city, you will capture the middle node.

Cut the defense line constructed by the three cities of Leling, Pingyuan, and Yangping into two sections.

At that time, the remaining two cities will be easy to capture.

Qi State can naturally see this, so Pingyuan has the strongest troops and the most artillery.

Of course, it will also be more difficult for them to attack.

"Qinshan, Lu Chang, each of you will lead 30,000 troops to Guangning City to join Guantong, gather together a 100,000 army, and march to the plains. The remaining troops will be stationed in place to prevent Qi from sneak attacks." Chang Wei said, "After that, , I will also go to Guangning City.”

Guangning City is facing Pingyuan City, so it is most suitable to rely on Guangning City to launch an attack on Pingyuan City.

"Yes, general." Qin Shan and Lu Chang responded at the same time.

In the past few days, the generals of the three cities have gathered in Fan Yang to participate in the simulation of the war.

After settling the matter, Chang Wei asked the three of them to wait for a few more days.

At the same time, people sent their plans to Yancheng to show to King Yan.

In nearly two days, Zhao Xu received Chang Wei's war plan.

After briefly flipping through it, he felt that there was no problem, so he drew a circle to indicate that he had reviewed it and sent it to Chang Wei.

Although he handed over the war to Chang Wei.

But he also takes this war very seriously.

In his opinion, the Three Cities Battle was no less important than Ningjin Dusi.

Ningjin Dusi created a war buffer zone between Yanzhou and Beidi.

And by capturing these three cities, he will make up for the last shortcoming of the feudal defense.

Yanzhou will become an absolutely safe rear area, providing a steady stream of weapons and supplies for the fighting soldiers.

After receiving the reply from King Yan, Chang Wei took reassurance.

He asked Lu Chang and Guan Tong to go back separately.

Qinshan immediately dispatched troops and generals, and set out for Guangning City the next day.

Lu Chang walked from Fan Yang to Dai County for almost three days, gathering troops and horses, and finally arrived at Guangning City.

Naturally, the mobilization of Yanzhou's troops and horses did not escape the detection of Qi's troops and horses. Qi's detectives and horses kept traveling to and from Lu City, passing news between the three cities.

Plain City.

Han Qi was looking in the direction of Ningcheng. On his left was Yuan Li.

On the right is a Japanese general named Shi Cun Dahe.

After the last tentative attack failed, the Japanese general was sent to Pingyuan City to assist Han Qi in defending it.

"Marshal, the soldiers and horses of Dai County and Fanyang County have gathered in Guangning County. Currently, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses of Guangning County." At this moment, a scout hurriedly climbed up the city wall and bowed to Han Qi. .

After the establishment of the State of Qi, Han Zheng named Han Qi the Grand Marshal of the State of Qi and commanded the troops of the State of Qi.

Han Qi frowned when he heard this, "It seems they are going to attack Pingyuan City?"

"It is said that King Yan has many tricks. Could this be another cover-up? It is false to attack Pingyuan City, but it is true to attack the other two cities." Shi Cun Dahe said.

After establishing King Yan as the enemy of Japan, he studied many battles launched by Yanzhou.

"It's possible." Han Qi's heart skipped a beat.

During this time, he also carefully analyzed the battles fought in Yanzhou during this period.

King Yan is very cunning. Many times, the frontal attack is just a cover, and he doesn't know what he is planning behind the scenes.

"If this is the case, we cannot easily mobilize the soldiers and horses of Leling City and Pingyang City, otherwise we will fall into the trap of the King of Hell and be in big trouble." Shi Cun Dahe said.

Han Qi nodded and agreed with Shimura Dahe's statement.

But in this way, the three cities will temporarily fight on their own.

Unless King Yan’s conspiracy is exposed, we will decide otherwise.

After settling the matter, Han Qi added: "This time King Yan's troops are fierce and their muskets have a farther range than ours. I wonder if the general has any clever plan to make them come back defeated?"

"Hmph, no matter how far their muskets shoot, can they be farther than the artillery?" Shi Cun Dahe said.

"However, it is said that the Yanwang artillery has a longer range than the Beidi artillery, and it seems that we do not have an advantage in the artillery." Han Qi was worried.

Neither of them had the upper hand on either firearm.

They have already lost this battle before it even started.

"It is true that they did not have an advantage, but don't forget that the failure of Beidi was that they were deceived by King Yan and attacked Yan Pass rashly. Therefore, King Yan's artillery was condescending and destroyed their artillery, while Ningcheng was captured by a sneak attack. Their artillery didn't even work." Shimura Taiga narrowed his eyes.

He came to Pingyuan City this time not just to help Han Qi defend the city.

The most important thing is that he wants to see with his own eyes the capabilities of King Yan's soldiers and horses, provide it as a reference for Japan, and formulate countermeasures.

Therefore, in order to test the true strength of King Yan's soldiers and horses, he also taught everything he could to the Qi army without any secrets.

Of course, there is another reason why he did this.

They just want to use Qi's help to weaken King Yan, or even eliminate King Yan.

Let the Dasong people kill each other, which is what they in Japan are most happy to see.

So he said: "The situation now is different. Our artillery is condescending, and King Yan's artillery is firing from the bottom up. It will not be so easy for them to destroy our artillery."

"Besides, I taught you that artillery can be mounted on a gun truck. In this way, your artillery will be much more flexible."

"When King Yan's artillery bombarded the city wall, he pulled the artillery far away from the city wall to avoid their artillery fire. When King Yan's soldiers launched a charge, they pushed the artillery forward and shot their soldiers. In this way, Can reduce losses and kill more enemies.”

After a pause, he added, "Besides, I have also told you the secret of grape bullets. This kind of shells will cause a large number of casualties to King Yan's infantry."

Hearing this, Han Qi felt as if he had taken a reassurance.

Shimura Dahe has indeed taught them a lot of new things in the past few days.

He hopes that these new things can have the same effect as in Shicun Dahekou.
