After listening to Wu Guang's story, Tang Yin rolled his eyes and muttered: "If I had really fallen and been seriously injured, I would have died a hundred times before you came to rescue me!"
Wu Guang lowered his head and said: "This... this is something that can't be helped." The two countries of Feng and Mo were at war. As the Feng army, they suddenly encountered the Mo army. It was impossible not to take action. Even if they didn't want to fight, they had to take the initiative.
Calling over!
"Your Majesty, I will send you away from here first!" Shangguan Yuanrang supported Tang Yin, turned around and walked back. On the other side, Xiang Wen and Peng Tai also held one of Qingyu's arms and walked back cautiously.
If the generals under their command were not around, Tang Yin and Qing Yu could still talk like two ordinary people without any inhibitions. Now that their subordinates were present, the two of them didn't know what to say. They looked at each other and turned back silently.
.
Back at the edge of the cliff, Shangguan Yuanrang, Wu Guang, Xiang Wen and Peng Tai tied the ropes to Tang Yin and Qingyu respectively. They pulled and pulled to make sure the ties were strong, and then they shook the ropes vigorously and told the soldiers above that it was okay.
Take the rope up.
With the rescue of Feng Mo's two armies, Tang Yin and Qing Yu successfully escaped. Seeing that the king and the general were safe and sound, the soldiers of Feng and Mo's armies were all overjoyed. They gathered around and immediately separated Tang Yin and Qing Yu, fearing that
Suddenly suffered a vicious attack from the opponent.
Liang Qi and Ziying both came to Tang Yin, knelt down and saluted, and said in unison: "I am late to save you, please forgive me!"
Tang Yin smiled indifferently, waved his hand, and motioned for the two of them to get up. He looked at Liang Qi, then at Ziying, and said with a smile: "Thanks to you two for arriving in time for this battle in Suyue. By the way, you are not in Ning."
Why did you suddenly come to Mo Country?"
Liang Qi and Ziying looked at each other and smiled. The former narrated what happened in general. Tang Yin nodded while listening. When Liang Qi finished speaking, he couldn't help but admire in his heart.
In terms of commanding troops to fight and strategizing, he is far behind compared with Liang Qi and Ziying. If the person who faced Qingyu had been Liang Qi or Ziying, his own army would never have been defeated so miserably.
, there is even a possibility of winning.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin felt bitter in his heart. He felt that as a great king, he had really let down the expectations of the public. In terms of academic performance, he was far inferior to Shangguan Yuanji, Qiu Zhen and other court ministers. In terms of martial arts, he was also inferior to Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, Ziying and others.
Even though the commander-in-chief is proud of his military force, there is still a big gap between him and today's top generals such as Shangguan Yuanrang and Lian Ge. If he is not good at writing and martial arts, what else can he do?
Alas! Tang Yin sighed. The war between Feng Mo and Feng Mo was not over yet, but his confidence was shattered first.
I don’t know what the king is thinking, but seeing that his face was changing from gloomy to bright, Liang Qi and Ziying did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, we should go back to Suyue first, Prime Minister Qiu."
We rushed from Bailin to Suyue."
Tang Yin nodded absently and said casually: "Okay!" As he said that, he separated from everyone and walked towards Mo Jun. Seeing Tang Yin coming, Mo Bing and Mo Generals all seemed extremely nervous and surrounded Qing Yu.
Three floors, three floors outside, don't let Tang Yin get close.
On the contrary, Qingyu separated the crowd with a smile, walked out of the crowd calmly, and stood in front of Tang Yin. He took the lead in bowing his hands and saluting, and said: "Thank you, His Highness Feng Wang, for your care over the past few days. Qingyu will keep it in my heart."
Tang Yin looked at Qingyu noncommittally and said nothing.
Not to mention that Qing Yu felt uncomfortable with his long gaze, even the soldiers of the Mo army were confused as to what Tang Yin was doing. If you have anything to say, just say it. If you don't have anything to say, just leave!
After a long time, when everyone in the Feng and Mo armies was impatient, Tang Yin suddenly bent over, approached Qingyu, and whispered in his ear: "Shao Fang is narrow-minded and has always been suspicious. In this battle,
You failed strangely, and this matter will never go well, so be careful." After saying this, he took another deep look at Qingyu, turned around, and walked back to his own camp.
Looking at Tang Yin's back, Qingyu was thoughtful. Xiang Wen stepped forward and asked curiously: "General, what did King Feng say to you just now?"
Qingyu came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Xiang Wen reminded: "King Feng has always been cunning and cunning. No matter what he says, the general doesn't have to take it to heart."
Qingyu was happy and grateful to Xiang Wen for worrying about him. He nodded and said, "I will do it."
In this battle of Suyue, the Mo army was indeed defeated. The sudden appearance of the Sanshui Army and the Sky Eagle Army caught the Mo army by surprise. Both the cavalry and the infantry suffered considerable losses. The most important thing is,
The Mo Army camp was destroyed, and all the military supplies, food and grass fell into the hands of Feng Jun. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to Mo Jun. Even if Qingyu returned to Mo Jun, he couldn't think of a good response for a while.
The only strategy was to give up the attack and retreat first.
Qingyu's retreat was very decisive. He not only withdrew from Dongjiang County, but also did not stop in Anqiu County. He retreated directly to Surabaya where he had stored a large amount of baggage and grain.
Anqiu is a flat loess plain with few resources and no danger to defend. Qingyu's troops are mainly cavalry and are good at attacking but not good at defending. Instead of staying in Anqiu and being beaten passively, it would be safer to withdraw to Surabaya, that is,
It can solve logistical supply problems on the spot, quickly replenish troops, and prepare for future counterattacks.
His choice was not wrong, but when the battle report came out to the Zhenjiang court, it completely changed his mind.
Hearing that Qingyu led his army from Dongjiang County and was beaten back to Surabaya, the government and the public in Mo State were in an uproar. At this time, the civil and military ministers became energetic and carefully studied why Qingyu was defeated so miserably.
After checking over and over again, in the final analysis, the problem still lies in the Battle of Suyue. After the Battle of Suyue, the Mozambique Central Army of more than 400,000 people lost no less than 100,000 infantry and nearly 60,000 to 70,000 cavalry.
As a result, the vitality of the entire army was severely damaged. The turning point of this battle was that the Feng Kingdom's Sanshui Army and the Sky Eagle Army penetrated the Mozhanning Land and directly invaded the Mo Kingdom.
Of course, Fengjun was able to pass through Ningdi unimpeded. Ji Wei, who was in charge of the eight counties in southern Ningxia, had an unshirkable responsibility. But even so, Qingyu's troops could not be unprepared and put all their energy into it.
Attack Suyue City and let the Sanshui Army and Sky Eagle Army that infiltrated take advantage of the loophole.
Regarding this matter, Shao Fangyou personally sent a letter to Qingyu to inquire about the truth. Qingyu told the truth, it was not because he was too big to be wary of the Fengjun who was attacking, but because he had no idea about the Fengjun's movements.
Ningdi did not give any warning or report about Feng Jun's advance, so he was successfully attacked by Feng Jun without knowing it.
Seeing Qingyu's reply, Shao Fang's nose almost turned crooked with anger. Ji Wei had no idea how brave he was. He didn't make any notification to the country about such an urgent military situation. It was simply lawless.
Shao Fang immediately sent a letter to Ji Wei in Ningdi, but the latter wrote clearly in his reply. It was clear that he had sent someone to inform Qing Yu about Feng Jun's movements. As for why Qing Yu had no precautions,
Then it has nothing to do with him.
It was good this time. Qingyu said that he had not received Ji Wei's alarm, and Ji Wei said that he had sent someone to inform Qingyu. The two of them had different opinions, and Shao Fang couldn't tell who was telling the truth.
Whoever said it was false.
In the end, it was Grand Tutor Zhang Rong who gave him an idea and asked Shao Fang to transfer both Qing Yu and Ji Wei back to Zhenjiang, and ask them questions face to face in the court. After confronting them face to face, the truth of the matter came to light.
Shao Fang felt that Zhang Rong's idea was feasible and immediately agreed. He ordered Shi Hanyu, the commander-in-chief of the Tianwei Army, to succeed Qing Yu and temporarily serve as the commander-in-chief of the entire army. He also ordered Minister Yan Ning to succeed Ji Wei and temporarily take charge of the eight counties in Ningnan, and recalled Qing Yu and Ji Wei.
people.
Changing commanders on the spot is a taboo for soldiers. Shao Fang himself knew this, but what he was more afraid of was the disloyalty of his ministers. Qingyu and Ji Wei each held their own opinions, but one of them must be lying, and the two
Since the person was in a high and powerful position, Shao Fang did not dare to let the matter drag on and was eager to find out the truth.
Ji Wei's replacement completely eliminated the opportunity for the northward counterattack in the eight counties of Ningnan. Qingyu's replacement completely disrupted the preparations of the Central Army of Mozambique that had been hoarding in Surabaya. It can be said that Taifu Zhang Rong gave
Shao Fang's ideas are basically all bad, none of them are good, but he just knows what he wants and knows exactly what Shao Fang is thinking, so his ideas are always accepted and adopted by Shao Fang.
When a country is about to fall, there is always no shortage of sycophants, and currently the biggest sycophant in Mo is none other than Zhang Rong.
On the other side, the moon is occupied by the country of wind.
After the Battle of Suyue, the Mo army all retreated and returned to Surabaya. The pressure on Tang Yin's side was immediately relieved. Now the Feng army can take advantage of the trend and take back Anqiu County in one fell swoop.
The morale of the Feng Army was naturally boosted and full of hope. However, what surprised Qiu Zhen was that Tang Yin was as happy as the generals on the surface, but when no one was around, he was always depressed and frowning.
There is civil strife in Mo, and there are changes in commanders and officials in Ning. Now that our side has taken the initiative, what else does the king have to worry about? Qiu Zhen was very puzzled.
On this day, both the Sanshui Army and the Tianying Army sent back battle reports. The two armies had successfully advanced into Anqiu County, and there had not been a large accumulation of Mozhi troops in the territory. It is estimated that it would take less than half of the time to fully occupy the county.
moon.
Qiu Zhen came to Tang Yin with a smile on his face with the battle report, only to see the latter sitting in the garden in a daze, with only Ah San and Ah Si, who had recovered from injury, beside him.
Without walking over immediately, he first asked Ah San and Ah Si with his eyes, and both of them shrugged, showing helpless expressions.
Qiu Zhen paused, took a deep breath, walked quickly to Tang Yin, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, there is good news!"
Tang Yin suddenly came back to his senses, stared blankly at Qiu Zhen for two seconds before reacting, and asked with a smile: "What's the good news?"
"General Liang Qi and General Ziying have led their troops to fight back to Anqiu. The Mo army who retreated to Surabaya is too timid to fight. It won't be long before Anqiu will be in our army's hands again." Qiu Zhenxi said with a smile.
