Chapter three hundred and seventy fourth stretched
Yao Xishui believed that Wang Yang Yuanyan could win the first battle with An Ning Palace, but he did not expect that when the main force of the Chuzhou Army was blocked in Yangzhou, north of the Yangtze River, and could not cross the Yangtze River to go south for reinforcements, the two of them would fight in Run.
The state has less than 15,000 soldiers and horses in total. King Xin Yang Yuanyan actually led the Silver Halberd Guards of less than 1,000 people across the river, leading only less than 15,000 people and allied troops with different ideas.
Taking the initiative to attack, Xu Zhu's troops were twice as strong as theirs.
She never thought that Yang Yuanyan could win this battle with such a disadvantaged force and defeat Xu Zhu's troops.
They had expected that Chuzhou's troops and horses were not weak, but they never expected that King Xin Yang Yuanyan would be so strong.
When Li Chong said that his father, Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, was about to be unable to resist, Xin Wang Yang Yuanyan personally led his eight hundred silver halberds to attack, which actually meant to cover up for his father, Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang.
Yao Xishui received the secret letter. Although the information written by the scout was not very detailed, it also clearly stated that Li Pu's troops had been defeated by Xu Zhu at that time, and Xu Zhu mobilized all his troops to attack Chuzhou's forward general.
When Rao Geng was commanding his troops, King Xin Yang Yuanyan fought his way out from the depths of the mountain col where he was ambushed, and directly blocked his way into the central formation of the Nanya Forbidden Army that was slowly advancing from the front of the mountain col.
The ambush of King Xin Yang Yuanyan not only disrupted the formation of the central army of the Nanya Forbidden Army, but also beheaded its chief general in the formation. Xu Zhu, the deputy commander of the army's camp and horse infantry, instantly caused the enemy's army to collapse, and he was beheaded on the battlefield.
There were more than 10,000 soldiers, and in the end, only 10,000 people from the Nanya Imperial Army retreated to Qiuhu Mountain.
Xin Wang Yang Yuan played this battle not only with incomparable bravery, as if the God of War were alive, but what is even more frightening is that he accurately deduced the development trend of the war in advance and seized the opportunity in the chaotic battlefield.
The whole battle was completely based on Xinchang Hou Li Pu's troops, luring Xu Zhu's entire army to press forward. Xu Zhu was eager to defeat the allied forces gathered in Runzhou, and inadvertently caused the weakened Chinese army to move forward.
and completely exposed.
King Xin Yang Yuanyan is so powerful that he used this dangerous strategy to the best of his ability, and even achieved the effect of killing two birds with one stone!
Even if this strategy was planned for him by Wang Wenqian and others, Yang Yuanyan dared to use such a dangerous strategy, and he could accurately seize the opportunity in a complicated and unpredictable battle. His ability to run and lead the army was definitely far superior to that of ordinary generals in the world.
above.
Yao Xishui read the letter and looked at Chun Shisanniang in shock. She didn't know what to say for a moment. They had known that King Xin Yang Yuanyan was good at managing the army, but they never expected that he would be so strong.
"We have sent people to inform Chai Jian, should you go and wake up the concubine first and find the madam?" Li Chong asked with his head as big as a hemp.
He did not expect that when the situation in Yueyang was quite good, Jinling would see such a change in situation.
They could accept that King Xin Yang Yuanyan defeated Xu Zhu in the first battle, but they thought that when Xu Mingzhen led the Shouzhou elite to cross the river, no matter how strong Yang Yuanyan was, he would never feel better. They could never imagine that King Xin Yang Yuanyan would defeat Xu Zhu in the first battle.
The victory was so easy and so glorious.
What's more, the nearly 7,000 elite troops of the Longque Army in Runzhou were used as bait by King Xin Yang Yuanpu in this battle. They were defeated for a time and suffered heavy losses among their generals.
Even if they hold back their anger and don't break out, the few remaining defeated soldiers in Jinling may not be able to contain or balance the Chuzhou Army!
Chun Shisanniang didn't care that the concubine had just gone to bed. She went to the bedroom to wake up the concubine. Yao Xishui ran to the other courtyard on the west side to find Madam Black Sha.
In addition to sending people to invite Chai Jian, they also sent people to invite Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Han Daoming, Zhang Ping, Zhou Yuan and others to discuss how to deal with the situation at hand.
If Anning Palace is so vulnerable, the choice they have to make next may make it difficult for them to turn around for a while!

…………
"King Xin defeated the Nanya Imperial Army at Jingshan Nunnery?"
After receiving the news, Han Daoming hurriedly rushed to Cishou Palace by car. He saw that his second brother Han Daochang, Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Zhang Ping, Chai Jian, Zhou Yuan and others had already arrived, and they were divided into two rows and sat under the concubine.
After the long case, the shock in his heart has not yet calmed down.
"No, I thought that Marquis Xinchang could become a mainstay in Runzhou, but who knew that he was actually used as bait by Prince Xin, and all his good chips were lost."
Wang Chaner had been pretending to be a good aunt and a good woman in front of Princess Qingyang for a long time, and she had wronged herself so much at the strong request of Xinchanghou and Wanhonglou. She was going to bed with evil fire in her heart, but at this time, she heard that Xinchanghou Li Pu was coming.
It was reported that the troops under the command of Runzhou were used as bait by King Xin Yang Yuanyan without knowing it, and suffered heavy losses.
Wang Chan'er was favored by Emperor Tianyou at a young age, and then lived in seclusion in the palace. She lacked imagination about what happened on the battlefield, so she didn't quite understand how shocked everyone was by Xin Wang Yang Yuan's performance in this battle. She simply felt that Xinchang Hou Li Pu was not good enough, and couldn't help it.
Let’s start with a few words of ridicule.
Chai Jian and Li Chong looked ugly.
As the saying goes, a successful king loses a bandit. Li Pu led the elite troops in Runzhou. Although the number of soldiers and horses under his command was not large, they all represented Yueyang and cooperated with Chuzhou. He was also the only commander of Yueyang soldiers and horses who commanded troops to fight outside.
Therefore, in addition to the title of "Youcheng of Xingshangshu Province", Li Pu also added the titles of Deputy Privy Envoy and Military Commander.
As for Li Chong and Chai Jian, as their sons and sons-in-law, their opinions carry great weight in Yueyang, and it is difficult for others to ignore their opinions.
Now it's fine. Marquis of Xinchang and Li Pu are both ridiculed and responsible for the heavy losses of soldiers and horses in Runzhou. How can Li Chong and Chai Jian still see the good looks given to them by others in Yueyang?
Yao Xishui and Chun Shisanniang, as the concubines of Cishou Palace, were standing behind the concubine. Their expressions were not good-looking. Partly because the concubine ridiculed Mr. Li regardless of the occasion, which showed that deep down in her heart, she also felt the same for them.
Those who are dissatisfied are mostly worried about the current situation.
Who could have imagined that King Xin Yang Yuanyan and the Chuzhou army would be so strong?
Zheng Yu squinted his eyes slightly and noticed the two young and beautiful palace ladies behind the concubine. When the concubine was complaining, his eyes glanced at Lu Qingxia, the envoy of Cishou Palace who was sitting beside the concubine.
The Zheng family has long known that Yao Xishui and Chun Shisanniang were disciples trained by the Xinchang Hou Mansion. When the Xinchang Hou Mansion and Han Qian conspired to support the third prince, the two daughters joined the Secret Cao Zuosi founded by Han Qian and borrowed the skills of Zhang Ping's adopted daughter.
She was active between the government and the public, and before the Jinling Incident, because of her identity as Zhang Ping's adopted daughter, she was recruited by the concubine to Cishou Palace to serve as a female palace.
Zheng Yu believes that the concubine is well aware of these matters. Perhaps these are the prerequisites for the concubine to obtain the full support of the Xinchang Hou Mansion.
However, Lu Qingchen, the envoy of Cishou Palace, is quite mysterious. Not only does she have a very masculine name, but she also accompanied the concubine when she was a maid in Guangling Jiedushi Palace, and helped the concubine avoid murders in Anning Palace many times.
She was also the female companion who had taken care of the third prince Yang Yuanpu since he was a child. She naturally had a very special status in the palace at this time.
Zheng Yu noticed the subtle interactions between Yao Xishui, Li Chong and others and Lu Qingchen, as well as the concubine's subconscious fear of Lu Qingchen in her words and deeds, so she guessed that An Ning Palace was interested in Xinchang Hou Li Pu and colluded with the concubine to cause trouble in the country more than ten years ago.
Gong's rebuke may be true, and Lu Qingchen and Zhang Ping are very key figures among them.
Of course, Zheng Yu guessed this, but there was nothing surprising about it.
In these troubled times, among the giants living today, there are only a few who are not racking their brains and exhausting their plans. Which one is clean and innocent behind the scenes?
At this point, everyone has undoubtedly come together for their own interests, and the Zheng family has the qualifications and strength to stand on its own. They only need to pay attention to the role of Lu Qingchen and the concubine when cooperating with Marquis Xinchang and the concubine.
It would be better if the interests of the Xinchang Hou Mansion are closer.
Zheng Chang has always been intelligent, but at this moment his mind is not on pondering the subtle relationship between Cishou Palace envoy Lu Qingchen and the concubine Wang Chaner. He, who is always decisive, is also hesitant about the current situation at this moment, and looks for advice.
Everyone asked:
"Should we invite His Highness, Shen Yang and other adults to come to Chengyun Hall to discuss this matter?"
This incident had a great impact on everyone in Yueyang. There was no need for them to close the door and conspire and exclude Tan Wang Yang Yuanpu, Shen Yang and others.
Lu Qingchen, the envoy of Cishou Palace, said calmly: "Your Highness is having a great day today. Even if I want to report to Your Highness, it would be better to wait until tomorrow - besides, it won't be the time when the sky is falling apart and everyone is in panic."
"Don't bother Pu'er about this tonight." Wang Chan'er said in agreement.
Han Daoming, Zheng Yu and Zheng Chang looked at each other and thought that what the Cishou Palace envoy said was true. His Highness and Princess Qingyang had just entered the wedding room for an hour. Maybe at this time when their love was raging, they sent
To disturb His Highness, it really disturbed the scenery. It also showed that they were too restless, too frightened and made a mistake.
Besides, the matter has already happened. Reporting to His Highness a day earlier or a day later will not cause any problems. The key is what countermeasures can they come up with while sitting here?
Thinking of this, Han Daoming was somewhat helpless and even secretly regretted that he should not have been so eager to get together with the concubine and Xinchang Hou Li Pu when he escaped from Jinling. However, who could have thought in advance that His Highness the Second Highness would be so brave, and who could have thought that Xinchang Hou Li Pu would be so brave.
So unbearable?
Even if Yang Yuanyan and Wang Wenqian could not see through their plot, they would not be so passive as long as he led the elite soldiers and horses recruited from the Taowu Army Complex to withstand the impact of the Nanya Imperial Army.
Speaking of which, when Han Qian and Li Zhigao were stationed in Xichuan, the main force of the Dragon Bird Army were not mainly soldiers recruited from the Taowu Military Command?
At that time, the military households in Taowu Jijunfu had just emerged from the miserable days of hunger and displacement. Most of them were sallow and thin, and many even suffered from diseases.
In such a situation, Han Qian and Li Zhigao assisted the third prince to achieve such a glorious victory in Xichuan. Three years later, Li Pu recruited brave soldiers from the Taowu Military Command. The quality of individual soldiers was unknown how much higher than it was three years ago.
Will Xu Zhu's troops be the first to be defeated?
Could it be that the gap between people is really that big, or is there another reason why Li Pu failed so miserably in comparison?
Han Daoming was thinking wildly in his mind, and Zheng Chang said in a deep voice:
"Our top priority is to increase the number of troops in Ezhou, and we cannot delay Xianyun any longer!"
Zheng Chang's self-questioning and answering was a little sudden. Han Daoming was slightly startled, and then he saw Zheng Yu sitting opposite him. His maroon face was as gloomy as the river at night. At this time, he nodded in agreement with a solemn expression.
After Han Daoming thought about it, he also understood why Zheng Yu and Zheng Chang had such an opinion, and secretly felt that they still did not forget to maintain the interests of the Zheng family in Huangzhou.
