Lord of the House

"What?" Sun Jichang just rode a fast horse from Huangpi City to the Xiongjiagang camp to participate in the military meeting. He walked into the tent of Shewenzhuang. He didn't have time to take a breath. Hearing Shewenzhuang's suggestion, he stared in disbelief. Looking at him, "The King of Min wants me to lead his troops out of Huangpi to attack the Huaidong Army's camp in Zhaohu Mountain? Why?"

"Except for Fengshan Mountain and Tiemen Mountain, almost all the troops and horses that can be assembled on the east bank of the Han River are assembled in Huangpi, while Huaidong's troops and horses in Luzhou do not seem to be mobilized," Shewenzhuang stood with his hands behind his back. On his map, he pointed to Luzhou on the southeastern corner of East Huai Mountain, "Don't you think General Sun is unusual?"

Sun Jichang didn't understand why Shewenzhuang mentioned this. The Huaidong Army's attack on Huangpi City in these years is endless. At this critical juncture, Shewenzhuang called him out of Huangpi City because of this incident. He was extremely dissatisfied. Pulling up a chair and sitting down in front of the hall, he untied the jacket that made him a little breathless, and said, "According to King Min's previous speculation, after the offensive against Huangpi was officially launched, Lin Fu should put him in the hut. The two elites of Tang Fuguan and Liu Zhenzhi from the prefecture were transferred to Huangzhou to supplement the shortage of troops. However, these days, the Huaidong Army's offensive against Huangpi and other places has not shown signs of weakening, indicating that the Huaidong Army has no shortage of troops. …”

"But it is also clear that the Huaidong Army has not been able to make breakthroughs from Baitahe, Huangpi, and Xiongjiagang!" She Wenzhuang said.

Meng Anchan, who was sitting on the side, was a little unhappy when he heard this, and said, "The King of Fujian is in charge of fighting in the east of Hubei, and he has 120,000 cavalry and navy troops. Could it be that the King of Fujian thought that the Huaidong Army should take Baita River, Huangpi, Xiongjiagang, or a place in Hanjin City?"

Sun Jichang said: "As far as I can see, Lin Fu was not sure whether Hu Wenmu could defend Jingzhou beforehand, so he did not put his hope on Hu Wenmu's ability to defend Jingzhou - Lin Fu may be thinking about what to do after Jingzhou falls. After cleaning up the mess, what would be the benefit of him transferring troops from Luzhou to Huangzhou? Could it be that the Huaidong Army only had 20,000 or 30,000 troops in the south, and they could capture Huangpi and Hanjin?”

Sun Jichang seems to have forgotten that ten days ago, he had beaten the Huaidong Army like a dog, and finally hoped to come to Shewenzhuang and lead the Shicheng reinforcements to come to the rescue.

"General Sun's words make sense." Meng Anchan was not a reckless man who could only charge into battle. The Yanxi generals took him as the leader, and he had his own advantages. He said, "After Prince Mu captured Jingzhou, As long as a small number of soldiers and horses are left in Jingzhou to defend the defense, other soldiers and horses can cross the Han River to the east bank to participate in the battle. At that time, the Huaidong Army will inevitably retreat and use the several fortresses built along the river in the early stage to resist stubbornly. In order to contain our troops and horses. The Huaidong army is surrounded by the Yangtze River along the Yangtze River, and there are many tidal flats along the river, which are difficult to overcome. We can only continue to consolidate the defense line of eastern Hubei, and the troops are pointed to Huaixi. We naturally hope that Huaidong will be there. All troops and horses from Luzhou were transferred to Huangzhou, so that when we attacked Huaixi, there was no support from Shouzhou. The King of Fujian said that Lin Fu was a man of scheming, so he put 30,000 elites in Luzhou and did not move. Is it reasonable?"

Shewenzhuang stood with folded arms, knowing that Sun Jichang and Meng Anchan disapproved of his vigilance, frowned, and secretly asked: Is this Donghai fox really thinking about how to clean up the aftermath of the fall of Jingzhou?

Sun Jichang, Meng Anchan and their judgments are based on the fact that Ye Jiluorong can successfully capture Jingzhou on the west bank of Hanshui, and the news from the west bank of Hanshui is indeed very optimistic. The main force to contain East Hubei cannot help Jingzhou in the west, and it will be a matter of time to capture Jingzhou.

After the fall of Jingzhou, Lin Fu had to consider the entire coastline of nearly a thousand miles on the south bank of the Yangtze River and the defense of Huaixi. Xiangzhou and Jiangxia were still the defending sites of Zhang Han and Hu Wenmu. In Huangzhou, Qichun and other places, Chizhou troops cooperated with Huaidong. The army nailed the nails to the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the Huaidong Army mainly deployed heavy troops in Jiangzhou and Luzhou for defense.

Since Lin Fu didn't have much hope for Hu Wenmu's ability to defend Jingzhou, why did he need to transfer Luzhou's troops and horses to disrupt his own position?

It's just, is Lin Bie's idea so simple?

She Wenzhuang is very skeptical about this, but Meng Anchan and Sun Jichang have a very optimistic attitude towards the war in Jingzhou, ignoring his worries and doubts, thinking: In their hearts, they may think that they have given Huaidong all these years. The army fought so badly that it was a little shameful, right?

Shewenzhuang wanted to launch a counterattack from Huangpi and Xiongjiagang against the Huaidong Army's fortress outside Huangpi to test the Huaidong Army. Disapprove.

Sun Jichang, Meng Anchan, and Ma Kuide will return to the camp one after another. She Yuan looked at the aging grandfather and said, "Would you like to send some more secret rooms to Luzhou..."

Shewenzhuang nodded, but he didn't have much expectations.

To go deep into the hinterland to spy on intelligence, it is best to infiltrate secret agents who are familiar with local conditions and dialects.

After the Jiangning war, the last batch of eyeliners laid by the Zhejiang and Fujian troops in Jiangning were also uprooted, and it was difficult to find suitable candidates to penetrate in a short period of time.

What's more, Huaidong's control over the peripheral areas of Luzhou is very tight, and it is extremely difficult for those who are not familiar with the situation to infiltrate Huaishan after Lianzhai has secured the guarantee. Although Shewenzhuang sent a scout to Luzhou after he arrived at Huangpi, but in the past ten days, there has been no news. He didn't hold out much hope when he sent it again, but the work still had to be done...

Of course, even if the infiltrating scouts see something, it will be too late when the information is passed on to Shewenzhuang.

********************

In the city of Xiangyang, Azige was in a irritable mood, and he lost his temper at any time, and told the waitress to be careful, for fear of doing something wrong, he would be reprimanded at every turn.

It was not because of the unfavorable battles on the front line that Aziger was upset, but because the news from the front line was too smooth, which made him feel unhappy.

From Jingzhou to Xiangyang, the straight road is less than 400 miles away, and Azige can know the battle situation in Jingzhou in time every day. Judging from the current battle situation, Hu Wenmu can last at most three or five days in Jingzhou City.

After winning Jingzhou City, Prince Mu led the main force to cross the Han River to the east, and the Huaidong Army would inevitably retreat to Huangzhou and other cities along the coast. The end is coming to an end.

From attacking Wuguan to start the Nanyang War, and then to Huaidong to fight Huangpi to start the Jingxiang War, Ajige didn't win a single battle, how could he be in a good mood?

He didn't want to do anything to guard Xiangyang, he wanted to go to the battlefield to fight and get back the glory lost in the defeat in Yannan.

However, the further southward the attack was, the more restricted the cavalry was, and the role of the infantry and navy became increasingly prominent.

In addition to Na Hexiongqi's navy control in Dengzhou, Prince Mu also expanded the navy on a large scale in Xiangyang, Shicheng, and Hanjin on the basis of the she family's affiliation with the navy, and finally had to compete with the Huaidong battalion for the middle of the Yangtze River. upstream control.

In the next battlefield, how many opportunities are left for him to lead the iron cavalry?

Ajige even hoped that the landing of the Huaidong Army in Jingzhou would make Prince Mu suffer some setbacks. He was ordered to guard Xiangfan, but he deployed 6,000 elites of the 8,000 defenders to Xiangyang on the south bank of the Han River, just hoping for reinforcements on the Jingzhou battlefield It was a pity that the main force of Huaidong's army was contained in Huangpi, and Prince Mu's troops were enough to defeat Jingzhou two or three times.

Azige was in a bad mood in the house, with an indescribable irritability. He felt that he was peeping in the room. He stood up and opened the door abruptly, but the slave Sixizi was sneaking in the corridor, frowning, unhappy. He asked, "What is it that you dare not come in and talk about?"

"Master is in a better mood?" Si Xizi asked, "Master is in a bad mood, and Si Xizi doesn't dare to talk nonsense?"

"If you have a fart, let it go. If you have a fart, don't let it go. Be careful to reward you with twenty sticks."

"Sir Shen sent someone to say that he occasionally found four girls who sang songs, looked at Shui Ling, and asked the master if he was in the mood to listen to the song. Si Xizi was supposed to return it for the master, but I heard that these four sang songs. The girl is really very smart, and it is not difficult for Lord Shen to go over there..."

"What's the matter!" Azige has not yet reached the age of indulging in women's lust, and doesn't like Shen Haobo's flattering methods, so he asked Si Xizi, "The information from Jingzhou has just arrived~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I have seen it. , is there anything I should know about the North Shore today?"

"It doesn't really matter," said Sixizi, "the people from Xiangyang have all been sent to Jingzhou, and Xiangyang, Fancheng, Xinye, and Nanyang are all short of manpower. The King of Xiangyang transferred 3,000 soldiers from Chaishan, and they were also able to transport them together. A batch of food and forage came over, and I heard that Chaishan sent 2,000 soldiers to **** the transport, and Si Xizi heard this from Lord Shen just now, and he felt strange..."

"What's so strange?" Azige said indifferently, "The young men in the hinterland of Suizhou have all taken their time, and now we have to transfer people from the east..."

In order to attack Jingzhou, Ye Jiluorong spent almost 20,000 soldiers and 40,000 to 50,000 civilians under the city of Jingzhou, resulting in a serious shortage of logistics and auxiliary troops to attack the city. In order not to delay the war in Jingzhou, Ye Jiluorong could only dispatch manpower from Xiangyang as soon as possible, which resulted in the collapse of Xiangyang's manpower, and Nanyang in the north had just been slaughtered, so he could only find Luo Xiancheng from the east to find a way...

At this time, Luo Xiancheng sent people to **** thousands of people and a batch of food and grass from Chaishan, and Azige felt that there was nothing surprising.

Si Xizi said, "There are more than 600 miles from Chaishan. How can you say that you can transfer people over here? Mr. Shen guessed that Luo Xiancheng just happened to transfer Chaishan people to Suizhou. Hearing that there is a shortage of people here, he will make up for it first. Come here. But Si Xizi is strange again. Didn't Luo Xiancheng complain a while ago that the rice and wheat in the fields lacked manpower to harvest, and also complained that this year's harvest was disrupted by the war, and the food was very short, why did he suddenly become arrogant , and sent people and food?"

"It's a bit strange," Ajige nodded and said, "You go to the North Shore for me to take a look, don't ask Luo Xiancheng to take some old and weak women and children and some old grain and rotten grain to recharge!" My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
