Fighting for hegemony: Summon Lin Yi, the iron cavalry of Xiliang at the beginning Chapter 412 Soldiers enter Wuning County, intending to attack Xiliang
Chapter 412 Soldiers enter Wuning County, intending to attack Xiliang
"What a good guy, it's Shangguan Yun!"
Everyone was shocked. The emperor actually used this veteran. It seemed that he was determined to destroy Xiliang.
Shangguan Yun is the elder brother of the current queen and the uncle of the current dynasty. His status in Daning is not low.
But this one didn't rely on his sister to get to the top, but relied on his own abilities.
When Li Anlan rebelled, Shangguan Yun was one of the main forces.
Relying on his own military ability, he defeated Li Ruyun's army, took the lead in entering the capital, and cooperated with Li Anlan to capture the capital. Therefore, this guy is not a fuel-saving lamp, he is definitely a strong general.
However, because of his status as a maternal relative, he chose to retire to avoid causing trouble to his sister and nephew, otherwise the post of Taiwei might not go to Qin Li.
Now that he has returned to the world, it seems that the emperor has made up his mind to deal with Xiliang.
"Your Majesty Shangguan Yun obeys the order!"
Among the crowd, Shangguan Yun sighed and stood up, accepting the task under the expectant eyes of his nephew.
Ever since his sister became the queen, the Shangguan family basically had no way out, and they were as prosperous as the Li family. Now that Daning was facing a crisis, he couldn't turn a blind eye.
However, if this happens, it will be difficult to escape without reentering the arena.
Seeing Shangguan Yun take over the task, Li Anlan was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Okay, with Uncle Guo and Zong Zheng taking action, we will definitely be able to capture the Xiliang rebels and protect the safety of our northern Daning!"
Not only is this old man highly respected, but the key is that he is the queen's brother. If he cooperates with Zong Zheng and Li Ruyu, the army of 500,000 will never fall into the hands of others.
As for winning or losing, he has never worried about it.
Even Xiliang in its heyday could not withstand an army of 500,000 people attacking Xiliang.
Li Anlan was full of confidence, but Shangguan Yun frowned and sighed: "This battle is not going to be easy!"
He simulated the battle of Xiliang in his mind. A total of 500,000 troops were sent, of which 200,000 troops were in Dahuang County. He could take action directly, but if he wanted to attack Xiliang with an army of 300,000 troops, he needed to make a choice.
.
Either take the waterway to get close to Daning Port, and then fight directly into Ningchuan County; or take the land route, pass through Dahuang County and Youning County, and join Ningkun.
Taking the water route is the closest, but it’s very risky!
It would take a long time for an army of 300,000 to cross the river, which means there would be a lot of time on the water, which is extremely fatal.
If the opponent is prepared in advance, he will probably deploy a large number of trebuchets and siege crossbows, and then his side will be a living target.
It would be safer to take the land route!
However, if they want to enter Youning County, the 300,000-strong army will need to make a large circle. By the time they arrive, it is estimated that several days will have passed, which will delay the opportunity for combat.
The only way is to divide the troops into two groups, fight separately, use Ning Kun's army to attract Xiliang's attention, and then take the opportunity to cross the river on your own. This is the best choice.
After explaining to the emperor, Shangguan Yun and Li Ruyu set off.
After arriving at Ningchuan County, Shangguan Yun and the others did not even dare to delay any longer. They immediately took a boat into the Daning River and observed the situation at Ningchuan Port from a closer distance.
The results obtained were no surprise; the other party was indeed prepared.
Not only have ports been built along the coast, but also city walls have been installed. It is obvious that they have been prepared for a long time. If they want to make a sneak attack, it is simply impossible.
"No, the enemy is still patrolling!"
Just when he was about to take another look, he suddenly found an enemy warship patrolling. Shangguan Yun couldn't help but shrink his pupils. The other party was really cautious, and there were actually patrols!
He didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly returned to the shore.
"Brother Shangguan, this battle is not going to be easy!" Li Ruyu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Not only that the opponent was so prepared, but Lin Yi also had the advantage of the navy, it would be even harder for him to kill him easily than to reach the sky.
I am afraid that the enemy will discover the army as soon as it enters the water.
Shangguan Yun took a deep breath, looked at Li Ke aside, and said in a deep voice: "The other party no longer goes out to sea for fishing. Is there anyone patrolling at night?"
If the enemy is not patrolling at night, you can pass by in the dark.
Even if the enemy discovers it by then, it will already be too late, and you can force your way in.
"Uncle Guo, the other party not only patrols at night, but also occasionally comes to provoke us!" Li Ke, the prefect of Wuning County, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Depend on!
Li Ruyu twitched the corner of his mouth. If the sneak attack became a delusion, he would have to do it forcefully.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "If nothing unexpected happens, Xiliang has been prepared for a long time. If we want to forcefully fight across the Daning River, we will probably suffer a lot of losses.
It seems that Ning Kun really needs to take action first to attract the enemy's attention so that we can take the opportunity to cross the river!"
kindness!
Shangguan Yun nodded. There was nothing he could do about it. The other party had already prepared. The river was not as good as on land. It was better to be more cautious.
There must not be many soldiers and horses left in Xiliang now. At most, they can only support some troops from Beiliang. The prince-in-law Ning Kun has an army of 200,000, which is enough to cause chaos in Xiliang's position, and it is even possible to attack directly.
However, he was a little worried. Lin Yi was sure that Daning was going to attack Xiliang, so he was already prepared.
In this case, there is no reason for him not to be wary of Ning Kun. I am afraid that this battle will cause more trouble.
...........
Daning Port!
After Xun Yu received the news of Daning's dispatch of troops, he rushed to Daning Port to see the specific situation.
"Under such an arrangement, if the enemy wants to kill him, he will have to pay several times the price!"
After inspecting the area around Daning Port, he couldn't help but smile. With these arrangements, he had every advantage, and it would be very difficult for the other party to kill him.
Gan Ning smiled and said jokingly: "Xiangguo, this Li Anlan wants to take action against you under the slogan of eradicating the rebel Xun Yu. Aren't you angry?"
Liu Feng on the side couldn't help but couldn't help crying or laughing. He couldn't help laughing when he thought about this problem. Emperor Daning really knew how to find excuses. This was all nonsense!
He insisted on attacking Xiliang as aiding the Lord and causing chaos.
No wonder someone can become an emperor. With this shameless spirit, he has already surpassed many people.
Xun Yu laughed dumbly and said quietly: "Li Anlan just wants an excuse to send troops. If Xun Yu is not attacked, it is probably because Jinfan Navy stopped fishing and planned to rebel!"
Hahaha!
Gan Ning couldn't help but burst into laughter. These experts had to find excuses for this. Each and every one of them left people speechless.
