Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 424: Cross-grain road

On the evening of December 21st, Dajin 427, in a tent in the prison camp north of Qinhuai City, the atmosphere was a bit solemn. Liu Ji and the other commanders of the Shishiluping rebel army also Sun Tzu Heng, the riding general, had a bad face.

Today’s attack on the Red Scarf camp to the east outside the city of Qinhuai, not only failed to capture a Red Scarf army’s camp, but instead caused the 14th Route Imperial Tingping Rebels other than the Captive Army to lose their troops, and the Fourteenth Route Ping Rebels to reinforce their generals. He got up and lost nearly 50,000 people, and these nearly 50,000 people were all soldiers.

Liu Ji absorbed nearly 80,000 soul points today, bringing the soul value in his hand to a little over 3,700,000, but Liu Ji didn’t have a smile on his face either. On the one hand, because the other fourteenth-run rebels lost their soldiers and replaced them. , Liu Ji can't laugh, if he smiles on his face, he will inevitably be grateful for misfortune.

In addition, Liu Ji really couldn’t laugh. Judging from today’s attack on the Red Turban Barracks, it is almost impossible to easily defeat the hundreds of thousands of Red Turbans outside Qinhuai City. The Red Turbans are in Qinhuai City. The camps on the east, south, and west sides are all built on a hill, making the various camps of the Red Turban Army easier to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the infantry of the Raiders is allowed to attack the Red Turban Army’s camps, It will definitely pay a very heavy price. In this way, the 15th Route Ping Rebels will not be able to defeat the Red Scarf Army outside Qinhuai City in a short period of time and gain the initiative on the Suzhou battlefield.

Liu Ji said in a deep voice, "You have seen the situation today. Faced with the many cottages of the Red Turban Army outside the city of Qinhuai, let's talk about any good ideas you have!"

Liu Chong, the animal husbandry of Qianzhou Prefecture, smiled bitterly and said: "General Liu, your squadron is worthy of being an elite division across the Western Regions and the grasslands. A few days ago, you led the 80,000 squadrons and annihilated the Red Army. There are more than 300,000 female soldiers, but their own losses are negligible, and our 250,000 soldiers today attacked the Red Turban Army’s camp, but suffered heavy losses, and the results are even more pitiful, alas—"

Liu Ji hurriedly said to Liu Chong, the animal husbandry of Qianzhou Prefecture: "Master Zhou Mu, the reason why he was able to achieve such a great victory a few days ago is entirely because the north outside Qinhuai City is flat, which is conducive to the battle of large groups of cavalry. The army does not have enough cavalry, as it is today, facing the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Red Scarf Barracks, even if the smashing troops go to war, the same result will be achieved."

At this time, Liu Yuan, the animal husbandry of Pizhou Prefecture, frowned and said: "The Red Turban Army built a total of 29 camps on the east side outside Qinhuai City. Today we launched an attack on 14 of them. Unfortunately, a Red Turban Army’s The camp has not been defeated either. The officer feels that such a strong attack is not worth the loss, so he must think of other ways."

Liu Du, the animal husbandry of Qinzhou Prefecture, nodded and said: "Liu Pizhou is right. The Red Turban Army’s combat effectiveness is stronger than we thought. All the Red Scarf Barracks outside the city were attacked. You must know that apart from the 29 Red Scarf Barracks on the east side of Qinhuai City, there are more than 60 Red Scarf Barracks on the south and west outside Qinhuai City. The Red Scarf Barracks on the mountain."

Liu Pizhou is also equivalent to the combined name of surname and official position, just like Liu Chong, a herd in Qianzhou Prefecture, he can also be called Liu Qianzhou.

General Yuan Chao, the commander-in-chief of soldiers and horses in Dangyang County, Qinzhou, said suddenly: “Dear generals, masters of state animal husbandry, and masters of the prefect, in fact, the first task of our Fifteenth Route Rebels this time is to rescue Qinhuai City. The defeat of the Red Scarf Army on the north side of the city is equivalent to turning Qinhuai City into peace. The Red Scarf Army also lost the opportunity to continue to attack Qinhuai City. Why should we attack the Red Scarf Barracks in the other three directions outside Qinhuai City?"

Liu Chong, the animal husbandry of Qianzhou Prefecture, frowned and asked Yuan Chao: "What does General Yuan mean?"

Yuan Chao continued: "We now have a strong city like Qinhuai City in our hands, and we still have sufficient troops. We should wait for work here in Qinhuai City and wait for the Red Turban Army to attack. The Red Turban Army was previously defeated by General Liu Ji’s army. After annihilating so many troops and still not leaving Qinhuai City, it can be seen that the Red Scarf Army is determined to win Qinhuai City. The Red Scarf Army should be mobilizing reinforcements to gather here in Qinhuai City, trying to counter the rebels of the 15th Route Court in Qinhuai City. , And the imperial army in Qinhuai City for a decisive battle."

Liu Ji glanced at Yuan Chao. The son of Yuan Xin, the prefect of Dangyang County, Qinzhou, did have two brushes. He deserves to be a figure with an intelligence score of 86. His analysis is similar to that of Zhang Liang and Jia Xu. The analysis of the civil servants was basically the same, except that Zhang Liang, Jia Xu and the others all believed that the Shiv Luping rebels could not always be contained here in Qinhuai City, allowing the Red Turban Army to expand unscrupulously in the rear.

Chaqi General Sun Ziheng hesitated and said: "According to the information we just got, a Red Turban reinforcements with a strength of 200,000 troops may arrive outside Qinhuai City in just a few days, and this is not the only one. Reinforcement of the Red Scarf Army. Eventually, how many troops the bandits of the Red Scarf Army will gather here in Qinhuai City. Perhaps even the rebellious Zhang Mingqi himself does not know. Stunned, I suggest that the sooner you defeat the Red Scarf Army outside Qinhuai City, the better!"

Cao Lin, the prefect of Linze County, Qianzhou, shook his head and said: "With the Red Scarf Army, with their dozens of camps built on the hills, it is difficult for our imperial army to win quickly. The officer thinks it is better to wait for the Red Scarf to attack us. !"

The prefect of Longbei County of Qianzhou, Bao Wei frowned and said: "Our 15th Route Ping Rebels, although the first task is to rescue Qinhuai City, but Qinhuai City is not our only target. Our Fifteenth Route Ping Rebels were sent by the court. To suppress the rebellion of the entire Southeastern Seven States, you cannot always be held in Qinhuai City by the Red Scarf Army!"

After that, the commanders of the various rebels all expressed their opinions. Most of them agreed with Yuan Chao’s idea to let the Red Scarf Army take the initiative to attack Qinhuai City, and the various rebels and the imperial court in Qinhuai City The army relied on Jiancheng to consume the strength of the Red Turban Army, and finally took a counterattack.

There are also suggestions for a quick battle with the Red Scarf Army outside Qinhuai City, but not many people agree with this suggestion.

Liu Chong, the animal husbandry of Qianzhou Prefecture, turned his head and asked Liu Ji, "General Liu Ji, what is your opinion?"

Liu Ji pondered for a moment and said: "Mr Liu basically agrees with General Yuan's opinion, but we cannot allow the Red Turban Army to conscript in the occupied areas all the time. It is better to send a partial division to bypass the Qinhuai City and go to Suzhou. The prefectures and counties occupied by the Red Scarf Army will be attacked. It would be even more perfect if it could cut off the food passage of the hundreds of thousands of Red Scarf Army in Qinhuai City!"

In the end, after discussion, Liu Ji and the other commanders of the 14th Route Ping Rebels, as well as the chariot general Sun Ziheng, decided to suspend the attack on the Red Scarf Barracks outside the city of Qinhuai. The troops of the Siluping rebels were transferred into Qinhuai City each to increase the strength of the defending army. The main force of the Sundering Army and other Shiluping rebels waited for work in the north outside Qinhuai City, waiting for the Red Turbans to take the initiative. Come attack.

In addition, Liu Ji will send out the First Cavalry Brigade of the Prairie Army, bypassing Qinhuai City, and attacking the counties and counties occupied by the Red Turban Army in Suzhou, and the First Cavalry Brigade of the Prairie Army has one of the most important ones. The task is to cut off the food passage of the hundreds of thousands of Red Scarf Army outside Qinhuai City as much as possible. Once the First Cavalry Brigade of the Steppe Corps cuts off the food passage of the Red Turban Army, then the hundreds of thousands of Red Scarf Army outside Qinhuai City may not It's self-defeating.

Taking advantage of the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain of the many camps on the east side of Qinhuai City, the Red Turbans recovered a round, but did not take advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack. The commander of the Turban Army, Wu Zan, ordered that they were not allowed to go out to pursue the camp, so as not to be caught in the trap of the imperial army. Wu Zan had to be more careful.

On the evening of December 22nd, in a tent in the Red Scarf Army camp south of Qinhuai City, Wu Zan held up a wine glass and smiled at Chen Hongxin, the commander of the 200,000 Red Scarf Army reinforcements, and Guanghan Palace. The four direct disciples Su Ruoyu, Xie Fangfei, Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi said: "With the help of many masters from the Guanghan Palace, plus the 200,000 reinforcements brought by the Chen brothers, the strength of our Red Turban Army here in Qinhuai City , No weaker than the imperial army in Qinhuai City! Come, I will offer a drink to the four girls and Brother Chen!"

Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi, the two disciples of Guanghan Palace who had been subdued by Liu Ji, followed the latest orders of the master gate and brought the four inner disciples and twelve outer disciples of Guanghan Palace to Qinhuai. In the city, they almost arrived outside Qinhuai City with the reinforcements of the 200,000 Red Scarf Army.

Immediately after everyone in the tent drank a glass of wine, Chen Hongxin said with a smile: "Brother Wu, I heard that yesterday we repelled an attack by the court army on our Red Scarf camp?"

Wu Zan waved his hand and said: "It's only a small victory, but only about 50,000 troops of the imperial court have been wiped out, and the most elite army of the imperial army has not yet entered the battle."

The veiled Su Ruoyu said softly: "No matter what, the Red Turbans are equal to a round outside the Qinhuai City. Congratulations to General Wu!"

The corner of Wu Zan's mouth curled slightly and said, "A small victory is not enough."

Then Wu Zan suddenly sighed and said: "The four girls, when they were fighting the generals yesterday, the conquering general Liu Ji sent a soldier. It is very likely that they have the strength of a peerless general. The inner disciple Lu Zibo of your palace was killed. This warlord under Liu Ji's command was beheaded."

Su Ruoyu immediately said in a deep voice: "We already know about this. The disciples of Guanghan Palace will not die in vain. Sooner or later we will find Liu Ji to count this grudge!"

At this time, Chen Hongxin asked Wu Zan: "Brother Wu, what are your plans next? When will we continue to attack the city?"

Wu Zan said: "There is no rush to attack the city. There are tens of thousands of elite cavalry under the command of the conquered general Liu Ji. We want to continue to attack the city. It is not that easy. I am going to transfer a group of elite troops to the back of Qinhuai City. , To cut off the food channel of the court army, as long as the food channel of the court army can be cut off, then our Red Turban Army has an 80% chance of winning here in Qinhuai City!"

Chen Hongxin frowned and said: "Brother Wu, I heard that the food in Qinhuai City is piled up like a mountain. Even if we can cut off the food passage of the imperial army, the imperial army will not be short of food in a short time, and I want to cut off the imperial army’s food path. It doesn’t seem to be that easy either."

Wu Zan said in a deep voice: "In Huangdai County, north of Qinhuai City, a river cut off the road to Qinhuai City. If the imperial court wanted to transport grain to Qinhuai City, it had to ship the grain across this river. As long as our Red Turban Army can control all the ferry boats on this river and guard the north bank of the river, then it will be equivalent to cutting off the food passage of the imperial army."

After a pause, Wu Zan said in a deep voice, "As for the food in Qinhuai City, I can only rely on the many experts in Guanghan Palace. If the people in Guanghan Palace can burn several large granaries in Qinhuai City, then Qinhuai The city will be destroyed by itself!"

Wu Zan's words caused the four direct disciples of Guanghan Palace to frown. Tan Ruofei said softly, "General Wu, now all the gates of Qinhuai City are basically sealed, and our disciples in Guanghan Palace have no choice. If you get into Qinhuai City, let alone burn the large granaries in Qinhuai City."

A gleam of light flashed in Wu Zan’s eyes and said: “Because of the arrival of the imperial court reinforcements, a gate to the north of Qinhuai City has been opened~www.wuxiahere.com~ Although the people are still not allowed to enter and exit from this gate, they want to enter Qinhuai City. It's not that there is no chance. When Elder Wu and Elder Wen from Guanghan Palace arrive, we will study them carefully."

In the middle of the night on December 22, the disciples Tan Ruofei and Lu Yaoyi of Guanghan Palace who lived together in a tent, were still not asleep. Tan Ruofei said softly: "Sister, we must take the news we got tonight, think Tell your husband that if Wu Zan's plan is successful, then your husband will probably suffer a lot!"

Lu Yaoyi gritted his teeth and said: "Then I can only take a risk. I will now quietly get out of the camp of the Red Turban Army and go to the north of Qinhuai City to find my husband!"

Tan Ruofei immediately said: "Senior Sister, or I will go with you! Two people can still take care of me!"

Lu Yaoyi shook her head and said, "Sister Ruofei, you must stay in the camp of the Red Turban Army to cover me. If I don’t return before dawn tomorrow, I have to rely on you for Ruoyu and Fangfei. To explain."

Tan Ruofei asked embarrassedly: "Then how do I explain to Senior Sister Ruoyu and Senior Sister Fang Fei?"

Lu Yaoyi thought for a while and said, "You said I'm going to work for the master. The disciples of their Yaoguang Palace can't control my Tianji Palace affairs! I will try my best to come back before dawn!"

"Senior Sister, you have to be more careful along the way!"

Lu Yaoyi wanted to sneak out of the camp of the Red Scarf Army, but the camp of the Red Scarf Army was very tightly guarded. Lu Yaoyi immediately did nothing and left the camp of the Red Scarf Army on horseback and patrolled at night. With the Red Turban soldiers standing guard, seeing that Lu Yaoyi was a direct disciple of Guanghan Palace, he did not stop him at all. After Lu Yaoyi got out of the Red Turban Army’s camp, he urged the horse to bypass Qinhuai City and came to Qinhuai. To the north outside the city.
