Chapter 778 Gao Qingtian goes north to attack Yanyun!
"The township corps has completely become a trend!"
In front of the Daming Mansion and in the Liao army camp, Xiao Wuna looked at the military information sent by various ministries. Most of them were hurriedly scanned, except for a few offensive and defensive battles in Mozhou, which he read several times.
Taking advantage of the main force of the Liao army being frustrated at Daming Prefecture, he sent out the elite of the Pishi Army, and then ordered his trusted generals to turn around and fight back, hoping to wipe out the rural regiments occupying Mozhou, Bazhou, Xiongzhou and other places.
There were some gains, however. The Green Forest forces under the command of the "King of Pagodas" Chao Gai were so powerful that they were caught off guard by the elite Liao soldiers. The forts were lost one after another and almost all of them were wiped out.
But not to mention that they were later rescued by the rural corps. The threat of those so-called green forest heroes was limited and were not Xiao Wuna's main target. The rural corps that really wanted to destroy them stayed in danger and stayed calm, not impatient, and cooperated with Liao.
The elite soldiers fought back and forth.
Finally, after half a month of attack and defense, the Liao army had to retreat. Xiao Wuna also came to the conclusion that he was least willing to accept. This armed force behind enemy lines had really become a serious problem.
"The township army has grown to 30,000, and militiamen from all over the country have replenished their troops at any time. Relying on the dangers of Mozhou and Sanguan, we can even touch the main force of Daliao."
"The most terrifying thing is that Lin Chong went to Shandong, and the people under his command were still able to avoid blind expansion and not be dazzled by victory..."
"Such a calm army will definitely give us a severe blow at the critical moment!"
After thinking about it, Xiao Wuna still felt that it was necessary to clear the way out. No matter how high the price was, he had to avoid the worst situation of being attacked from both front and rear.
"Report! There is an urgent military situation from Jijin Mansion!"
But the appearance of a military message made Xiao Wuna's body tremble and he lost his temper like never before: "Shandong was defeated. The main force stationed in Zengtou City was surrounded from front to back due to conflicts with the Nvzhi slaves, and the entire army was wiped out.
?”
He just felt like the world was spinning. He covered his forehead and felt waves of severe pain in his head.
After resting for a long time, Xiao Wuna picked up the military information again and read it carefully a few times. He looked thoughtful and had the same idea as Yelu Dezhong: "This person has made such great achievements, the Southern Dynasty
There is no room for someone like Li Yuanhao to establish a country and a dynasty in Shandong and Hebei. If one side is separated, the situation will be beneficial to Daliao!"
War and diplomacy are closely related matters. Xiao Wuna will not hang himself on a rope like Yelu Yanxi in Daming Mansion. Since Lin Chong is so powerful and has become the climate, suppressing him requires paying an unbearable price. Then the reverse is true.
It is also a good strategy to elevate the opponent and cause civil strife and division in the Southern Dynasties.
Having ability will inevitably lead to ambition, founding a country and establishing a system, being a loner and a few people. How many people in the world can avoid such a big temptation? He doesn't believe that Lin Chong doesn't have any selfish desires at all!
But after thinking about it, Xiao Wuna's head started to hurt again, because this change of strategy required Emperor Tianzuo's approval, and facing the recently moody Majesty, he had no confidence in persuading him. In desperation, he
He started and said: "Invite Xiao Dutong here."
Two quarters of an hour later, Xiao Fengxian walked in and said politely: "I pay my respects to Prince Lanling!"
Xiao Wuna looked at this slanderous official whom he hated so much, and he responded politely: "Xiao Dutong, I am here to seek your help!"
The Khitan people were straightforward in their speech. Although intrigues are inevitable in the officialdom, Xiao Fengxian knew that this old minister did not like intrigues and conspiracies. He thought it was because of the military affairs. He smiled bitterly and whispered: "To be honest with King Lanling, the official is actually not a good person."
I want to bypass Daming Mansion and attack Bianjing instead, but His Majesty is really unable to persuade me..."
Xiao Wuna frowned: "Is it because of the attack on the camp that night? Why is it so serious?"
Xiao Feng opened his mouth first, but he couldn't say something clearly. That night, Yelu Yanxi was holding a few beauties shyly, when he was rushed to death by the Song army like thunderbolts. Although he did not actually reach Zhongying Nabo, Emperor Tianzuo
I was also greatly shocked. It seems that Meiji has not been sleeping with me during this period of time...
After organizing his words, Xiao Fengxian skipped the detailed reasons and said the conclusion directly: "Your Majesty is furious and must execute the person who disturbed the Holy Emperor. Otherwise, he would rather fight with this Daming Mansion to the end. Now the resistance in the city is getting stronger and stronger.
Weak, there is hope of breaking the city!"
Xiao Wuna shook his head: "I'm afraid it was the prefect Cai Jing who did it on purpose. This person was very sophisticated and used a trick to tire out the enemy. He deliberately dragged our Liao army here... As for the person who attacked the camp, we also found out that he was Gao
He is a small official in the Imperial City Division controlled by Qiu!"
Xiao Fengxian's eyes widened: "How can a mere petty official be so brave?"
Xiao Wuna sighed: "The Southern Dynasty has a vast land, rich resources, and outstanding people. When the crisis comes, heroes will emerge in large numbers. How can we underestimate it? We are now trapped here, and our early advantages are rapidly losing... The military information we just received, Shandong Province
We were defeated all the way, and the entire army of 40,000 was almost wiped out!"
Xiao Feng first received the military information, and after a quick look, his expression changed horribly, and he even showed fear: "This news must not spread!"
After all, they are not complete idiots, but Xiao Wuna shook his head and said: "Previously, the Daming Mansion wanted to conceal the news that the Southern Emperor moved the capital and fled, but failed to do so. Now it's us who want to conceal the news of Shandong's defeat all the way. You
Do you think we can hide it?"
Xiao Fengxian swayed.
There is no airtight wall in the world, how can it be completely concealed?
But now that the Liao army has been unable to attack for a long time, its morale has become impetuous. If it hears such news again, it may be in danger of mutiny. However, Yelu Yanxi was attacked by the Qin and Ming Dynasties. He lost face and wanted to vent his anger.
No matter how popular the hearts of the Liao army's leaders and subordinates are...
Xiao Fengxian gritted his teeth and said: "I will definitely persuade your Majesty to change your mind. What about the method Prince Lanling used to negotiate with the Southern Emperor?"
Xiao Wuna said: "The battlefield is changing rapidly. My previous proposal was only suitable for the situation at that time. At that time, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty had just moved the capital and the people were scattered. But now it is not possible. If our Liao army rushes to attack Bianjing, it will not be able to break the city quickly.
, the Southern Dynasty refused to negotiate again, and was at a loss to advance or retreat, fearing that the entire army would be annihilated!"
"For the current plan, it will fall on the Xiang Corps and Lin Chong. I will send people to Jinling, the new capital of the Southern Dynasty, to publicize the threat of the Xiang Corps and the Xiang Yong Regiment. Lin Chong has the heart of Song Taizu and will separate the north. If the Southern Dynasty
The imperial court's punishment will trigger civil unrest in Hebei and Shandong, and we, Daliao, will reap the benefits!"
"Even if the Southern Dynasty does not dare to destroy the city wall at this time, I can send envoys to lobby Lin Chong and allow him to establish a country. When the time comes, His Majesty will personally conquer the Southern Dynasty and split the Southern Dynasty. This kind of achievement is also an honor. I can go south again in the future.
A strategy to destroy the country!"
Because he turned the corner too fast, Xiao Fengxian's hearing was a little blurry, but he also knew that at a critical moment, the current Tutor could still be relied upon: "Please rest assured, Prince Lanling, I will persuade your Majesty!"
Just as he was taking care of the specific details, another scout came to report and gave him the latest military information.
After Xiao Wuna took it, he was startled at first: "The rural warriors left Shandong and gathered in Cangzhou... This rural warrior just came out of Shandong after winning?"
Immediately afterwards, he realized something and lost his voice: "No! We are a step too late, Lin Chong is going north to Yanyun!!"
…
"Great victory in Shandong! Great victory in Shandong!"
In the Daming Mansion, when he heard his son Li Hao's cry of joy, Li Gefei, who was editing a book, also raised his head and walked out quickly.
There were thunderous cheers on the streets. Obviously, the defeat of the Liao army had an unparalleled boosting effect on the morale of Daming Mansion.
Li Gefei and Li Hao were originally from Zhangqiu, Qizhou, Shandong. Now that Shandong has won a great victory, they have also joined the celebrating team. They said in the midst of their busy schedule: "Go tell your sister!"
Li Hao responded and rushed to the Lin Mansion on the street with a familiarity.
They originally lived in Lin's mansion, and later moved to their own mansion. The two families were not far away from each other, and they were very close to each other.
When Li Hao entered, Li Qingzhao was holding the "Science" textbook from Sui'an Academy and was explaining the content of the text to the teachers.
Li Hao watched from a distance, but for a moment he didn't dare to approach.
He used to be quite afraid of this sister. Although he has been practicing martial arts diligently recently, his sister's temperament seems to have become more worldly and a little more awe-inspiring.
Li Hao lingered nearby, but Shishi noticed: "Sister Qingzhao, Xiaolang is here!"
Just when Li Hao informed Li Qingzhao of the good news that his hometown would no longer be ravaged by the Liao people, Xiao Hei gracefully jumped into the house, came to Lin Yuanjing, and handed over the letter.
Lin Yuanjing opened his own letter first. After reading it, he was overjoyed. Then he looked at the other two letters. Sure enough, they were addressed to Gao Qiu and Cai Jing. He immediately said: "I will go to the Yamen to deliver the letter."
"Hahaha!"
Gao Qiu's laughter became even louder: "Master Lin will never disappoint. This time he not only conquered Shandong, but also gathered 30,000 rural warriors to march north to Yanyun. With the Hebei Township Corps, there is much to be done! There is much to be done!"
Cai Jing read the letter carefully and was very moved: "I didn't expect that I underestimated this person's ability. It seems that the Liao army outside Daming Mansion cannot be retained..."
Gao Qiu geared up: "Now Mr. Lin has asked me to find an opportunity to go north, and Brother Yuan can also go with us. We have been oppressed by the Liao people for so long, and it is finally our turn to fight back!"
Cai Jing's eyes moved slightly: "I am the magistrate of Daming Prefecture. This place is related to the overall situation of Hebei and cannot be touched lightly. If the Liao army retreats, Gao Tiju might as well go north and in the name of the imperial court, the army led by Master Lin will be more legitimate!"
Gao Qiu couldn't help being overjoyed and repeatedly handed over his hands: "Then I'd like to thank Brother Yuan for making it happen!"
Liang Shijie, who was next to him, had been serving tea and water for a while, and he had become much calmer. However, after seeing Gao Qiuxiong go away with high spirits, he still couldn't help but said: "Father, how can you conquer Yan Yun, who is famous in history?"
Missed?"
Cai Jing cast a sidelong glance at his incompetent son-in-law and sipped the tea calmly: "I, Cai Jing, guarded Daming Mansion, stopped the Liao army from going south, and protected the Song Dynasty. This is enough to leave a name in history! As for my contribution to conquering Yanyun... it doesn't matter.
Let Gao Tiju show his performance, see what kind of reward he gets in the end, and how he should choose the next path, and then he will have an idea!"
