Chapter 285: Yue Guo Raiders


If the location of the capital is not well chosen, it will be a fatal flaw for the existence of the country, and at a critical moment, it is likely that a country that should not be easily destroyed will be easily destroyed because the chosen national capital has no geographical advantages, so it will easily perish.

How is the capital of the Yue country, and the capital of the Yue country is in Huiji.

Huiji is near the sea, not far from the capital is a bay, fishing at that time did not have this condition, let alone a business wharf, so the bay is very desolate, not even a place name.

Many years later, the bay got its name, and it was called Hangzhou Bay at that time.

The army led by Ying Tao turned into Hangzhou Bay from the sea and landed on the coastline near the side of the Yue Kingdom.

When Qingji attacked Wu, Sun Wu used a long-distance detour of sea ships to bypass the main direction of Fucha's defense, and landed ashore from his heart to fight.

Transporting troops from the sea, this is an unprecedented practice in the Spring and Autumn Period, this incident has caused a great shock to the coastal Yue country, some far-sighted doctors have even made a statement, asking the monarch to move the capital inward, because they feel that the sea frontier that has always been a natural barrier is no longer safe, the endless coastline is impossible to defend at all, and no one knows what day and where the strong enemy will land, so as to bypass their army on the border and take the capital directly, the original natural barrier has become a vulnerable weakness.

However, it is not an easy task to move the capital, especially once the capital is moved, the interests of many local ministers will be greatly affected, so this matter has not been supported by the vast majority of ministers and doctors, and has been put on hold for the time being.

Gou Jian's heart was as meticulous as a hair, although he didn't know that the Northern Expedition of the Wu Army was a bureau set up against the Yue State from the beginning, he was still worried about the danger of the army pouring out of the nest and the internal emptiness, so he sent many scouts to Nanwu City, where a large number of warships of the Wu State were concentrated, to closely monitor the entry and exit of every warship there.

However, Rao is Gou Jian is shrewd and wise, and he did not expect that as an important part of the entire plan to destroy Vietnam, Qingji had already sent someone to get in touch with Lu State and borrowed a ship from Lu State to transport troops.

When Yingtao led his army to land in Hangzhou Bay, the fishermen on the seashore were amazed to see countless large wooden boats drifting towards them, and they were stunned to see such a strange scene that they had never seen before.

Wu Jun did not pay any attention to these fishermen who were fishing in the coastal waters, they left the wooden boats in groups, walked to the flat beach in a big way, and lined up in an orderly manner under the orders and banners of the officers at all levels, such as the commander of the army, the two Simas, the commander of the pawn, and the brigade commander.

When Sun Wu was in the Flying Fox Valley, he trained every soldier according to the standards of low-ranking officers, and these soldiers had grown into qualified officers after the baptism of war in the Battle of Wu, and under their command, the whole team was quickly assembled.

Ying Tao then began to dispatch troops, and he sent a detachment of men and horses under the command of two brigade commanders to attack the Vietnamese garrison on the Wu-Vietnam border.

Since the main force of the Vietnamese army entered Wu to fight, there were not many soldiers left behind in the Yue camp opposite Yu'er City, and most of them were old and weak soldiers, and these two brigades were enough to solve them.

Yingtao sent another soldier to escort Danwu from the land route to the south, and these more than 40 Dongyi archers each carried a bow and arrows, and on the other side of the shoulder carried a heavy burden, which was full of jewels and treasures.

This time, they went deep into the southern part of the country and shouldered a very important mission: Zhao'an.

Yue Wang Yunchang surname Xi, the Xi clan originally lived in the north, in the territory of today's Qi State, due to the establishment of Qi, Lu, Wu and other countries successively established and strong, the Shang Dynasty vassal state Yue Guo that existed before the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty was forced to move south step by step, until it came to the current Yue Kingdom area, and settled here.

Speaking of which, they are also an alien group of the Yue country, and there are many local ethnic groups living here since ancient times, the largest of which is also a descendant of the Yi people, and the world calls it Sanyi.

But this is only the world in order to distinguish it from the Yi people in different places of residence in Huaiyi and Dongyi, and in the hearts of the Sanyi people, they think that they are the descendants of Shaohao with Dongyi and Huaiyi.

In recent years, Wu asked for a large amount of timber and ore from the Yue people, and the Yue people were distributed to these Yi people as forced labor, so that they could go into the mountains to cut wood, go into the caves and dig stones, and the hard life and heavy labor made the Sanyi people extremely dissatisfied with the rule of Yue Wang Yunchang.

This time, Ying Chan'er sent Dan Wu to the south with the Yingtao army, in the name of the king of the Yi people, to send envoys to contact the leaders of the Sanyi tribe and persuade them to rise up and eliminate the Xi regime.

They are a local ethnic group and a major force among the Yue people, and if they can persuade the Sanyi to rebel, it will not be difficult to seize the Yue country and quickly stabilize the Yue country.

After arranging for them to leave, Ying Tao personally led the main army, set off from Hangzhou Bay, and went straight to Huiji City under the leadership of the secret agents who had gone deep into Yue many times earlier to act as scouts and were familiar with the path of Yue Kingdom Will be over the palace, the ministers gathered, panicked.

Yue Wang Yun Chang Tie sat on top with a blue face, he had just sent a messenger to summon Gou Jian to lead his troops back to China, but the distant water did not quench his thirst, and in the face of the menacing Wu army, Yun Chang was really at a loss.

The ministers discussed a lot, some persuaded the king to flee to Huiji Mountain immediately, some persuaded the king to move without a sentence, and even some people were whimsical and persuaded Yun Chang to flee to Chu first, but he couldn't help but shout: "Shut up" With Yun Chang's loud shout, the court suddenly fell silent, and the doctors who had just fought for red ears looked at Yun Chang one after another.

Yun Chang took a few heavy breaths, tried to calm his breath, and asked in a slow tone: "Wu Jun stood out and rushed straight to Huiji.

Our Vietnamese army is outside, and the interior is empty, how to resist a strong enemy, I hope that all the doctors will work together to discuss a suitable way.

At the moment of the great enemy, we must not act rashly and cause chaos on our own.

If you become a doctor, you first say, in this case, how should I respond to the country?"

Ruocheng took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "King, the elite of my Wu country is exhausted, and those who stay behind are all old and weak soldiers, and it is difficult to defeat the tiger and wolf army of Wu country.

It must be known that the Chu State Fei Wuji also led a large army in Wu, and the Wu army would not dare to fight here for a long time, so only wait for the prince to lead the army back, and the Wu army will retreat. ” Yun Chang nodded slightly when he heard this, and the doctor Ji Yan immediately flashed out and said loudly: "King, the minister thinks this is not appropriate. ” "How to Speak" "The king, the prince led the elite to come out, and the Wu army suddenly appeared, obviously prepared, looking at this situation, I am afraid that we have fallen into the plan of the king of Wu, otherwise they would not have come so quickly.

If Wu intends to lure my army into Wu, I am afraid that the prince will also be more auspicious, let alone wait for the prince to lead his troops back to help.

We should make full use of this point, withdraw from the Huiji, use the rivers and lakes as a cover, deal with the Wu army, and wait for accurate news from the prince before taking countermeasures. ” "Joke" the doctor sneered: "Let the king abandon the capital, wouldn't it be even more unreasonable to rely on the fact that even if the prince leads the army back, we are embarrassed between the mountains, rivers and swamps, and the prince hurries back and the army is blunt, but the Wu army occupies the city of my Yue people, and has enough sharp energy to defend the danger, how to counterattack again" He bowed his hand to Yun Chang and said, "The king, the minister thinks that if the plan of the doctor can be used.

Although the city of Huiji is in disrepair for a long time, the city wall is low, but the Wu people came by boat, attacking Huiji, asking for the speed of the soldiers, and will not carry large siege weapons, if we start to prepare immediately, we may not be able to build Huiji into a strong city, even if we can't hold it for a few months and a year, it is always possible to defend until the prince returns with his troops.

Now that the Wu army has suddenly arrived, the whole country has been shaken, and the people have been infinitely panicked, if the king leaves without a fight, abandons the city and flees, the fighting spirit of the people will disappear, and they will inevitably flee in all directions, how to end up at that time and what kind of counteroffensive to talk about" Doctor Haojin thought for a long time, stepped forward and said: "King, the prince led the troops to attack Wu, and he has exhausted the elite soldiers of my Yue country, and there is a man and horse of the Chu State Fei Wuji who led several times the number of my Yue army.

As the saying goes, killing a thousand people and inflicting eight hundred self-losses, no matter how brave King Wu is, it is impossible for him to eat so many soldiers and horses so easily.

What's more, we still have accurate news, King Wu has sent all the main forces of Wu to Dongyi.

Wu Jun suddenly appeared in the territory of our Yue Kingdom, this matter is really strange" Ji Yan said suddenly: "Wu Junbing is moving fast, he has arrived at Ruoye Creek at this moment, and he will arrive at Huiji in a moment, you still think this is a rumor."

Haojin smiled, his eyes flashed, and he said calmly: "King, doctors, Haojin does not disbelieve that the Wu army has come to the city, but wants to know that Wu Wang Qingji has sent troops to Dongyi, and Wu is strong and middle-class, and he is already vulnerable.

Our Chu-Yue coalition army has advanced all the way and has attacked the city of Gusu, and the domestic situation in Wu must be even more chaotic than the situation in my Yue country at the moment.

So where did this Wu army come from and why did it come from?"

Yun Chang listened to what he said, his spirit couldn't help but perk, and he hurriedly leaned over and asked, "What is Dr.

Haojin's opinion?"

Hao Jin said: "The king, the minister thinks that this is a plan by Sun Wu, the prime minister of Wu State, and wants to use this to reverse the defeat." ” The ministers were all moved when they heard it, and they all held their breath and listened quietly, Haojin's voice was loud, and he said loudly: "Qingji personally led the army to the Northern Expedition, and Sun Wu of Xiangguo sat in Gusu.

Sun Wu was not known to the world, and he became famous in the first battle since he celebrated the crusade against Lu Lu.

This person is scheming, good at resourcefulness, when Qingji crusaded against Helu, he used his strategy to surround Gusu, lure Helu to help, but secretly sent a large army to ambush at the foot of Tianmu Mountain, defeated Helu's army in a battle, and made great contributions to Qingji's recapture of Wu State.

Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led his troops into Wu, joined forces with the Chu people, attacked Gusu internally, and Qingji externally.

This plan is similar to the method used by Sun Wu at the beginning, and with Sun Wu's wisdom, it is not difficult to see through our army's intentions.

When the prince set out on the expedition, he expected that this plan would be difficult to conceal from the Wu people, but our army would save it, and Qingji had to save it.

However, Sun Wu is really good, and he actually came up with this clever plan to break the siege."

Speaking of this, he praised a few times, and said: "Everyone, the Qingji army is now in Dongyi, and the road is long, even if you get the news that our army has attacked Wu State, you will immediately start your army and return south, no matter if you ride a horse or boat, you will never be able to reach our Yue Country at this moment, not to mention that most of the Dongyi tribes live in the mountains, how can there be so many ships available Therefore, this Wu army will never come from the Wu army that is fighting against the Song State in the Dongyi area, they can only be from the Wu State.

So what other people and horses are available in Wu State, the only ones who were originally stationed in Wuyuan are the Jinglin people and horses who were originally stationed in Wuyuan and the Wangcheng garrison who guarded Gusu.

Haojin thought about it for a long time before he came to this conclusion, Haojin thought that this Wu army must be the Jinglin Division, and the Jinglin Divisions were transferred to Gusu, originally to strengthen the defense of Gusu, why did they suddenly appear in our Yue Kingdom?"

Hao Jin smiled and said: "There is only one possibility, that is, as soon as our Chu-Yue coalition army entered the Wu State, Sun Wu, who had already used similar strategies, saw through our intentions and guessed our army's next plan of action."

So, he took the risk of dispatching Jinglin's men and horses, and quickly went south by boat to attack the city of Huiji Wang.

If you can break through the Huiji and capture the king, even if Gusu is lost, you can calmly talk about rebellion with my Yue country.

Even if they can't defeat Huiji, as long as the prince hears the news and withdraws his troops, the Chu-Yue alliance will inevitably collapse, and it will be much easier for the Wu people to deal with the Chu army alone. ” Yun Chang suddenly brightened up when he heard this, slapped his thigh and said: "Wow, what Dr.

Haojin said is reasonable, this must be the Wu people's desperate plan to survive in death, and the widow almost fell for them." ” Ji Yan said angrily: "Doctor Haojin, what you said is completely groundless, and it is completely speculation.

It is a matter of the survival of the Yue Kingdom, how can you deal with it based on a nonsensical guess, are you going to trap the king in injustice?"

Haojin said suddenly: "If you have to see everything with your own eyes to find a way to deal with it, then there is no such thing as taking precautions in the world."

Haojin's words are of course out of speculation, but it is not nonsense, if it weren't for the men and horses sent by Sun Wu, and Qingji's army was far away in Dongyi, it would be impossible to get the news after our army sent troops and then send troops south in time, can you explain where this sudden Wu army came from If their purpose is not to resolve the siege of Gusu, can you explain the purpose of this Wu army's surprise attack on Gusu With this Wu army alone, even if my Yue country is empty, they can destroy my Yue country?"

"This", Ji Yan was suddenly speechless.

Yun Chang laughed, stood up, raised his eyebrows, and said awe-inspiringly: "The widow's mind has been decided, and you don't have to argue anymore."

The ministers immediately stopped and looked at Yun Chang in unison.

Yun Chang said: "The widow will immediately send a messenger to inform the prince of the discussion between the widow and the ministers, and order him to act at the opportunity, if the defenders in the city of Gusu are empty, then take Gusu first regardless of everything, and completely solve the trouble of Wu once and for all."

As for the Wu army under the city, the widow should wear armor and hold spears, go to the city to meet the enemy, defend the meeting, drag this Wu army, and thwart the conspiracy of the Wu army.

Do you dare to fight side by side with the widow?"

There was a slight silence in the court, and the ministers knelt down in unison, and said loudly: "The ministers are willing to follow the king and swear allegiance."

"Good" Yun Chang said impassionedly: "Immediately order, the peasants from the suburbs will be moved into the city, all the men over the age of thirteen and under the age of sixty will go to the city to defend against the enemy, and the young and strong women will be responsible for eating, transporting, and treating the wounded."

But there are those who disobey the order, and the whole family is beheaded.

In this battle, all the people of the country should be in the same boat with the widows and go to the national disaster together."
