Six hundred and twenty-seven: Blood-stained Qijiang River
Jia Jing slowly walked onto the high platform. The soldiers below were looking at him with admiration. These people were all recruited into the army by him. It can be said that they came for him when they came. Almost most of them were
I joined the army because I admired him.
So the biggest difference between this Japanese army and the Yulin army is that many of them are actually children of aristocratic families and scholars!
At this time, these people are looking at him eagerly. In fact, they have not spent very long time with Jia Jing, so they cherish every opportunity to see Jia Jing!
After Jia Jing came on stage, there was a burst of cheers, which could not be subsided for a long time. Jia Jing did not stop them and allowed them to cheer. After a while, Jia Jing stretched out her hand to stop them. Everyone saw this and held back.
He looked at Jia Jing with excitement in his heart.
Jia Jing smiled and said: "It seems that the training these days is not ineffective. At least everyone's voice is louder!"
Everyone in the audience laughed when they heard this. Jia Jing also smiled, glanced at everyone and nodded slowly: "We haven't seen each other for a while. They all have that smell. They are all darker and thinner. It looks like
Like a soldier!"
Everyone got a little excited when they heard what Jia Jing said. Jia Jing then said: "But when looking at a soldier, you can't just look at the dark and thin ones. If the dark and thin ones are good soldiers, then these good soldiers are too worthless!
"
A soldier at the bottom had the courage to shout: "Then the Marquis is not a good soldier!" Everyone burst into laughter, even Xue Qiu Liuze and others above laughed. Jia Jing was born with a face as white as jade,
He was a little rough when he was in Sanshan Fort, but he immediately changed back after coming back, so Jia Jing really didn't look like a soldier. The soldier's words also meant that Jia Jing was a good soldier.
Jia Jing smiled and nodded at them. He was indeed a well-educated soldier. Even though his thinking was more lively than other soldiers, he couldn't say it was a good thing or a bad thing. It could only be said that it had advantages and disadvantages. It just depends on how the general uses it.
…………
Jia Jing smiled and said: "You might be a good officer if you flatter me, but you can't be a good soldier!" Everyone smiled and patted the soldier who was blushing but still smiling.
Jia Jing's smile slowly faded and she said: "There is only one way to test whether you are a good soldier, and that is to go to the battlefield!"
When everyone heard this, they all suppressed their smiles. They could all guess what Jia Jing was here to do today. This was mobilization before the war!
Thinking of this, the 100,000 Japanese troops in the audience all had eager eyes... Yes, even though Emperor Yongxi told him to stop recruiting troops, Jia Jing still recruited troops all the way to Hankou. When he arrived at Hankou,
Jia Jing's Japanese army already had a force of 100,000!
Emperor Yongxi would not say anything even if he knew, because no matter how many soldiers Jia Jing recruited, he would eventually give up the Japanese army to others. Even if he let his generals take care of it, the sky is high and the road is far away.
All the Japanese troops were scattered on the coastline, and there were not many left.
It can be said that Emperor Yongxi had great trust in Jia Jing. If Jia Jing wanted to rebel, there was no need to bother. Besides, Jia Jing and Emperor Yongxi were almost tied together. Emperor Yongxi could not think of any reason for Jia Jing to rebel. Even
Even Emperor Yongxi didn't even think about Jia Jing taking the path of rebellion!
Then Emperor Yongxi naturally turned a blind eye to these 100,000 people. It would definitely be a bit painful to get food and grass for the 100,000 troops, but if there are too many lice, don't bite them, if there are too many debts, don't worry.
Emperor Xi no longer cares about this trivial matter...
Jia Jing glanced at the crowd and said: "You have finally paid for it. How many brothers and sisters are eagerly looking forward to it, their heads are almost turning gray waiting for it! They can't wait for this opportunity! And you have just formed an army, and you have got this."
Chance!"
Jia Jing waved her arms and said loudly: "Opportunity to make contributions! Opportunity to make a wife and wife!" When everyone heard these two words, their eyes became hotter! They became soldiers not only because they admired Jia Jing, but also longed to be like Jia Jing.
fame?
Jia Jing pointed coldly to the southwest and said: "It's over there! It's over there!" Everyone looked at him in silence. Jia Jing put her hands on her hips and said: "Over there, there is a toast named What?
Do you know what toast is?"
Everyone was silent, and Jia Jing said loudly: "He is the rich man! He is the country boss!" Everyone laughed. Most of these soldiers were from the south and southwest, and only a few came from the north to join the army.
, how could they not know what toast is?
Jia Jing said loudly: "This rich man, relying on his two filthy rich men and several servants, is incredible! He actually dares to openly defy the court! Defy the emperor!"
There was deathly silence all around, and an undercurrent slowly gathered from the crowd. Everyone felt an inexplicable fire rising in their hearts, and this emotion spread slowly.
Jia Jing stretched out her hand, gestured three fingers and shouted: "Three thousand Paoze brothers! The blood was shed there! Three thousand wives lost their husbands! Three thousand parents lost their sons! And we! Lost
Three thousand siblings!"
Everyone looked at Jia Jing with their mouths tightly pursed and eyes blazing with anger. Jia Jing waved her arms: "Shame! This is a great shame!"
Jia Jing raised her head and looked at everyone, and said slowly: "I heard that if a person has a sword in his hand, then everyone will respect him, but now, that rich man disrespects the emperor! He disrespects us!"
"We are the sword in Dayan's hand, a sword for the emperor! But this rich man actually dares to do this! What is this? This is a provocation! Is this sword bad? It is not enough to deter Xiaoxiao? Otherwise, why would such a country man dare?
Such presumptuous behavior!"
Jia Jing waved his hand and said: "So I order you! The whole army marches out! We want to suppress his land! We want to burn his house down! We want to kill every one of his soldiers! We want him to see it with his own eyes! This!
This is what happens when you go against Dayan!
"
"good!
"
The audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers, which could not be suppressed at all. Jia Jing pulled out a white strip of cloth from the side and tied it on her forehead. She held the sword at her waist with both hands and said, "Here is the Emperor's Sword! By order of the king,
! Crusade against the traitors! Punish the unjust and slay the demons! Avenge the three thousand brothers and sisters! Avenge ourselves!"
As Jia Jing spoke, she hung the Emperor's Sword on her waist. Cang Langlang pulled out the sword and pointed at the sky: "The whole army attacks! Attack Yang Yinglong in Bozhou! We will kill him! Blood debt must be paid with blood!"
"eye for eye!"
The soldiers' shouts shook the sky, and the mighty army, led by Jia Jing, rushed toward the southwest like a ferocious tiger! Each soldier wore a white cloth belt on his head.
They want to raise an army to crusade and avenge the three thousand brothers and sisters!
…………
"Chitose! You! How could you do such a stupid thing!"
Yang Yinglong held his forehead, he also had a headache. Although Sun Shitai had rested for a day, according to the doctor, he still had to cultivate slowly, but Sun Shitai no longer had the intention to cultivate slowly!
No matter how much you cultivate yourself, you can go to the grave to cultivate every day! No! There might not even be a grave!
Yang Yinglong did something like this and slaughtered three thousand soldiers of the imperial court. This is no longer a matter of provocation, it is a slap in the face with a big mouth!
Yang Yinglong was obviously very regretful and said to Sun Shitai: "I was angry at the time, and I drank some wine, so I couldn't hold it back... Sir, what should I do now?"
Sun Shitai beat his chest helplessly, but after a while, he may have realized that worrying like this was of no use, so he could only remain silent for a moment, then slowly sighed and said: "For now, the only thing we can do is to fight hard. Maybe
There is still some life left..."
Yang Yinglong was stunned when he heard this: "Sir, what do you mean by this?" Sun Shitai sighed helplessly: "Now that Chitose has wiped out all three thousand soldiers and horses of the imperial court, the imperial court cannot turn a blind eye even if it wants to. I'm afraid it can't be done.
In an instant, a huge army marched on the territory to attack the enemy!"
Yang Yinglong was shocked and dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in a panic: "I, I was also at a loss for a moment, and I just did such a ridiculous thing. Can the court, can the court allow me to explain?"
Sun Shitai covered his face with his hands in pain. You stabbed someone, and then they came back with someone to find you. You told them that you drank too much at the time. Can you please explain?
Yang Yinglong also knew that he was a little naive, so he lowered his head sadly. Sun Shitai raised his head and said: "This is different from before. I am afraid that the imperial court is really going to annihilate us. Don't think too much about it. The matter has come to this, and it can only be
Only by working hard can we gain a chance of survival!"
Yang Yinglong heard the words and asked hurriedly: "Sir, what are you going to do?" Sun Shitai said thoughtfully: "The imperial court has decided to destroy me, and it will be difficult to change it. In this way, we can only survive if we scare the imperial court!"
When Yang Yinglong heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened. Is he frightening the court? It's not a joke...
Sun Shitai explained: "The imperial court just suffered heavy losses in Sichuan and Shaanxi. I am afraid that the imperial court would not be willing to act rashly and start the second battle so quickly unless it was absolutely necessary. Chitose really went too far this time.
, will lead to a massive army crusade."
Yang Yinglong sighed, and Sun Shitai continued: "But even though the army is coming, there is still an unknown amount of gold and silver flowing out every day. This is our advantage!"
Sun Shitai said softly: "This is our home ground, our territory. No matter how long the fight lasts, we can afford to fight them! But can the imperial army afford it?"
Yang Yinglong slowly pondered after hearing this, and Sun Shitai continued: "The imperial army can't hold on for long at all! So my subordinates concluded that as long as we delay it, the imperial army will be unable to attack for a long time, so they can only negotiate peace with us!"
Sun Shitai narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "If we negotiate a peace first, the court will never agree. We have lost such a big face and it is impossible to allow us to atone for our sins. Then we have to beat the court until it is forced to negotiate a peace!"
Yang Yinglong nodded slowly: "What you said makes sense! If you want to fight, then fight! I, Yang Yinglong, am not necessarily afraid of them, I will make arrangements now!"
Sun Shitai nodded and said: "Chitose needs to make arrangements in advance. The first thing is to remove all the disadvantages in our Bozhou territory. Then we can try to attack Chongqing Prefecture to make complete defense preparations!"
Yang Yinglong nodded in agreement, then stood up and said to Sun Shitai: "I still need your help, sir, to contact the Miao people in the mountains to see if they can help. We need all the forces that can help!"
Sun Shitai said: "I will first go to the deep mountains to find the Miao village for help, and then go to Guizhou to see if the Yi people of the Shuiximo tribe are willing to help. The rest will be left to Chitose himself!
"
Yang Yinglong nodded slowly and sighed helplessly: "The imperial court cannot tolerate me. Now I can only fight to the death, fight out of Qijiang, and fight to the death with the imperial court!"
"A thousand-year-old wise man!"
That day, Hailongtun, a behemoth that Yang Yinglong had worked hard for many years, began to operate crazily. Mu Zhao and other generals went out to recruit troops, and the permanent strength of Hailongtun instantly increased to 160,000 troops!
Yang Yinglong personally took command and ordered his general Yang Zhumuzhao to divide his troops into five groups to clear out all the disobedient chieftains and guard posts in Bozhou and occupy all strategic locations!
Except for the five chieftains and seven surnames, the chieftains in Bozhou are not of concern at all. They are no match for Yang Yinglong, so they can be said to be fatal escape wounds at the first touch!
Most of the chieftains ran to the mountains, waiting for opportunities, and Bozhou instantly became Yang Yinglong's real palm!
Qijiang Councilor Fang Jiachong keenly noticed the changes in Bozhou, so he sent people to patrol day and night, and finally caught more than 30 spies of Yang Yinglong asking for help and collecting intelligence!
Fang Jiachong was furious when he heard that Yang Yinglong had captured the entire Bozhou and was brazenly preparing to rebel! Yang Yinglong had massacred the imperial officers and soldiers before, which made the guardsmen hate him with the same hatred. Now he heard that Yang Yinglong was going to rebel directly.
It's so angry!
Fang Jiachong ordered all the more than 30 spies to be beheaded in public. After Yang Yinglong heard about this, he gritted his teeth with hatred. Because of Yang Kedong's incident, Yang Yinglong was very angry and jealous. At this time, he heard that Qijiang Guards dared to kill him.
People are even more angry from their hearts!
To strike first is to be strong. Since Yang Yinglong has decided to rebel, he is also ready to break up with the court! Therefore, Yang Yinglong decided to vent his anger!
On the day they learned the news, an army of 80,000 troops marched north to Qijiang! Under the attack of 80,000 local soldiers who were not afraid of death, the Qijiang defenders did not last more than a day and were captured by Qijiang City!
Qijiang guard Fang Jiachong refused to retreat, and the entire Qijiang Guard army was wiped out! But obviously Yang Yinglong was not prepared to withdraw his troops just like this...
Yang Yinglong looked at the rolling water of the Qijiang River, his eyes were blood red, thinking of all the previous humiliations he had suffered here, which were always biting his heart like poisonous insects!
"Three days of massacre of the city! For my son and for the dead brothers, I want Qijiang City, leaving no chickens or dogs behind!"
These 80,000 chieftain soldiers burned, killed, raped and looted in Qijiang City for three days. The fire burned for more than three days. The cries and begging for mercy resounded throughout the sky. Qijiang completely turned into a purgatory on earth!
The rolling water of the Qijiang River was dyed red, and corpses were hidden in the river. It was too horrible to see!
When Jia Jing's army arrived at Qijiang, they saw such a scene...
Jia Jing's 100,000-strong army marched day and night. Their fighting spirit was high and their fighting spirit was high! So they quickly arrived at Chongqing Mansion and walked along the Qijiang River. After seeing such a scene, every soldier felt even heavier and angry at the same time.
It also burned their hearts crazily!
Each soldier took off the white cloth band on his head, soaked it in the water of Qijiang River, and then tied it on his head. With such hatred, one hundred thousand Japanese troops were stationed in Chongqing!
The people of Chongqing welcomed him with pots and pans of food in the streets. Apparently, the recent threat from Bozhou had made them share the same hatred. Jia Jing also met Jiang Dongzhi and Wang Jiguang who had been dismissed from their posts in Chongqing Mansion.
Jiang Dongzhi was dismissed from his post as expected, and the newly appointed Chongqing prefect had not yet taken office. Jia Jing rushed to Chongqing on the first day. There were still many things to coordinate next, and it was estimated that troops would not be used against Yang Yinglong in a short time.
Although Jiang Dongzhi and others urged them urgently, they actually knew this truth, so they could only regretfully leave Southwest and return to Beijing for investigation.
At the same time, the news that Jia Jing, the Marquis of Ning State, led 100,000 troops and stationed in Chongqing with the Emperor's Sword, preparing to coordinate all parties to attack Bozhou Yang Yinglong, also spread like wildfire. After Yang Yinglong knew that his opponent was Jia Jing, he couldn't help but look even more solemn.
That night, Yang Yinglong sent troops to attack Yu Qing, shouting, "Duba, burn and rob the Caotang Second Division and Xinglong and Duyun guards!"
One hundred and eighty thousand chieftain soldiers came out in force, plundered the towns of Jiangjin and Nanchuan in Sichuan, attacked the villages of Hongtou, Gaoping and Xincun in Guizhou, and even invaded the forty-eight villages of Huguang!
This is a demonstration against Jia Jing! This is a provocation to Jia Jing! I know you are coming and I know who you are, but I am not afraid of you at all!
Jia Jing looked at the military report in his hand, but silently reported the general report to the court. When Emperor Yongxi learned about it, he was furious and ordered the guards of the three provinces of Chongqing, Sichuan, and Guizhou to go out and obey Jia Jing's order!
Jia Jing gathered an army of 260,000 in one time, including chieftains from all over the country who came to help. The 260,000 army was furious and full of fighting spirit!
Jia Jing was waiting for an opportunity. Once the governors of Huguang, Guizhou and Sichuan came to jointly discuss the attack on Yang.
Secondly, Jia Jing is also making complete preparations. The Pingbo War must not be delayed as long as the Song and Qing Dynasties rebelled against Sichuan and Shaanxi Bailian. Otherwise, it will not only be a huge blow to the court's prestige, but may even make the court
The finances that had just taken a breath collapsed in an instant!
Jia Jing knew that he and Yang Yinglong were now competing. Yang Yinglong wanted to drag him until he couldn't afford it, and the court forced him to return to the army! And he wanted the first battle to be a decisive battle!
Yang Yinglong himself knew that Jia Jing must have understood his thoughts, but he would never give up his family fortune to others like this! So he personally led his troops to capture Huangping overnight, frantically occupying a favorable strategic position!
At this time, both sides are preparing for the subsequent war! Everyone knows that it is already the eve of the war!
