Chapter 551 Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and looked at Liang Qi in disbelief, as soon as he finished punishing them with twenty military whips and a month's salary, Liang Qi changed it to fifty military sticks in front of him, half a year's salary, he was too bold After Liang Qi passed on the order, he watched the seven generals being dragged out for execution, and then gave Tang Yin a deep salute, and said: "King, if you can't do it in the army, the army will not become an army, and if you don't severely punish the seven of them, everyone will ignore military discipline and military rules in the future, and everyone will not act according to the general's order, this is not the way to rejuvenate the army, but to bring about your own destruction." ” Tang Yin was speechless by what Liang Qi said, his old face turned red, he cleared his throat, and said: "What General Liang Qi said makes sense, just do what you want."
With the arrival of Tang Yin and Liang Qi's severe punishment, the slaughter of the Sanshui Army was finally stopped, but in this not long time, there were no less than thousands of people killed in Fengcheng, but the Feng Army found a good excuse to clear the mob, and they planned all the people who were slaughtered into the ranks of the mob, which seemed to be a matter of course.
Next, Liang Qi immediately asked people to write a notice for the people and post it in prominent positions in various places in the city, so that the people in the city could rest assured that as long as they did not make enemies with the Feng Army, the Feng Army would never commit any crimes.
The slaughter of the wind army played a role in killing chickens and respecting monkeys to a certain extent, although the Ning people in the city hated the wind army, they were also afraid of the wind army, and the incidents of sneak attacks on the lone wind army did decrease a lot.
Tang Yin did not stay long in Fengcheng, visited Shangguan Yuanrang's injuries, and learned about the situation of the Sanshui Army, he returned to the direct army with Shangguan Brothers, Cheng Jin and other dark arrow personnel.
At present, the Flying Eagle Army is advancing all the way to the west, and the momentum is like a bamboo, taking five towns in a row, and it is close to Qingyuan City, the central hinterland of Hedong, and the direct army following the Flying Eagle Army is naturally not easy, and when it arrives here, the whole army is on high alert, for fear that they will fall into the enemy's encirclement if they are not careful.
In this case, how dare Tang Yin leave the direct army for too long When Tang Yin returned to the army directly under him, he immediately received news from Lotte and Ai Jia that 200,000 of the 500,000 troops in the northern region of the Ning army had withdrawn to Liangzhou, the capital of Ning, and another 300,000 troops were proposed from Liangzhou to form an army of 500,000 people, with General Wei Zheng as the commander and General Ming Xiaotian as the deputy marshal, and went straight to the Hedong region.
I didn't expect the speed of the Ning army to be so fast, especially the army that reinforced the north, and 200,000 people would withdraw to Ningdu so quickly, which was really incredible.
Tang Yin asked, "Who are the commanders of the two generals of the Ning Army?"
Ai Jia smiled and said, "The king and Ming Xiaotian have some origins. ” "Oh" What kind of relationship can she have with Ning Ren Tang Yin looked at Ai Jia curiously, waiting for her to continue.
Ai Jia asked, "The king still remembers that when our army was fighting with the Ning army, he captured a Ning general, named Ming Xuan. ” Of course Tang Yin remembered this, he blinked his eyes and asked, "Could it be that Ming Xuan is the son of this Ming Xiaotian?"
Ai Jia nodded and praised: "The king is wise." ” Tang Yin smiled and said, "It turned out to be an old enemy, so what about Wei Zheng, who is he?"
Lotte said: "It is reported that Wei Zheng is the most trusted general of Ning Wang Yan Chu, although this person was born in a powerful family, but since he was a child, he has been familiar with military books and war strategies, and he is also born with divine power, and he is a rare all-round talent in civil and military affairs among the generals of Ningguo.
The king can't be taken lightly."
Tang Yin pondered for a moment, lowered his head, looked at the map of Hedong, and after a while, he muttered: "The reinforcements of the Ning army are numerous, and there are two generals as commanders, the future battle will be extremely difficult, during the time when the Ning army rushed to Hedong, our army must take Qingyuan City and seize the initiative."
Speaking of this, he looked at Lotte and Ai Jia and said, "You two immediately send your subordinates to pass the book to Ziying in front, so that he can go to Qingyuan as quickly as possible, and within three days, Qingyuan must be captured no matter what."
"It's the king" Lotte and Ai Jia both gave the order and turned away.
It also makes sense for Tang Yin to let the two of them give orders to Ziying, at present, Hedong is controlled by Ning Guo after all, and it is actually the territory of Ning State, Tang Yin is also afraid that there will be a small group of Ning troops to intercept and kill their own messengers halfway, and the message will be transmitted by the Sky Eye and the Earth Network respectively, and the safety surname will be higher, and it will be more able to ensure that his orders are conveyed to the Flying Eagle Army in front.
Qingyuan is the county seat of Hedong, located in the center of Hedong region, it can be said to be the central hub of Hedong, the necessary place to cross the east, west, north and south, no matter which side controls Qingyuan, it can get a lot of advantages in strategy.
Of course, Tang Yin hoped that when Ning's 500,000 reinforcements arrived in Hedong, he would be able to use Qingyuan as a base camp to fight with Ning's army.
Tang Yin's order was smoothly transmitted to Ziying's hands by the spies of the Sky Eye and the Earth Net, and after reading Tang Yin's order, Ziying took a breath and suddenly felt that the burden on her shoulders was much heavier.
Ning sent an army of 500,000 to reinforce Hedong, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, and if it could not create other advantages, it would be difficult to compete with Ning's army.
Tang Yin's order was not wrong, and it was also necessary to take Qingyuan before Ning's reinforcements arrived, but Ziying had no idea about this battle.
Qingyuan is a county town, the city is large, the reserves are sufficient, the city walls are high, the defense is strong, and there are more than 30,000 Ning troops stationed in it, the number is not much, but 30,000 people rely on Qingyuan's perfect city defense system, and it is very difficult for the Flying Eagle Army to attack it.
Seeing Ziying's frowns and silence, the war tiger on the side smiled and said, "General Ziying, since the king has an order, order you and me to take Qingyuan within three days, and our army will march quickly."
Since entering the hinterland of Hedong, the marching speed of the Flying Eagle Army has slowed down a lot, and the closer to Qingyuan, the slower the march, this is Ziying's order, he does not know anything about the terrain here, for fear that the army will mistakenly hit the enemy's ambush, so he adopts the strategy of step-by-step, the army stops and goes in the march, and every time he walks a distance, Ziying will send a large number of spies to the surrounding five miles to do exploration, and after confirming that there is no enemy situation, he ordered the army to continue to advance.
Zhan Hu has long been impatient with this kind of march, and now that Tang Yin happened to send the military order to capture Qingyuan within three days, Zhan Hu was naturally very happy, and muttered in his heart, this time look at how Ziying is still procrastinating Ziying glanced at Zhan Hu, ignored him, and muttered for a long time, he asked the Sky Eye and Earth Net Spies who accompanied the army: "Have you explored the path ahead?"
The two spy leaders are not at the bottom of their ranks, and they are both at the level of corps commanders.
When the two heard Ziying's question, they glanced at each other, and both arched their hands and said, "It hasn't been discovered yet." ” Ziying frowned and said, "If the general is not mistaken, I have already explained this matter to the two generals. ” The two nodded and replied: "The general has indeed explained, but now that the sky is foggy, it is extremely difficult to detect, please forgive the general." ” "Oh" Ziying was slightly stunned, then stood up, walked out of the big tent, and took a look outside, but no, there was fog outside, and there was only about three zhang away as far as the eye could see, and then looking at it from a distance, it was not clear that anything could be seen.
The Hedong area is warm and rainy, the temperature difference is not big throughout the year, it is suitable for grain production, but it is not suitable for war, the roads in the Hedong area are rarely muddy, it rains almost every day, fog is a common thing, and there is no regularity, sometimes it is foggy in the early morning, sometimes it will be at noon or in the afternoon.
After reading it, Ziying shook her head, sighed helplessly, and returned to the big tent.
Zhan Hu, Jiang Fan, and the other generals were all looking at him with blank eyes, waiting for him to give the order to march into the army.
The king asked the Sky Eagle Army to capture Qingyuan within three days, according to the current marching speed, not to mention that Qingyuan can't be defeated within three days, I'm afraid I won't even be able to go to Qingyuan Ziying held back for a long time, and Fang said softly: "It's foggy from the sky, and it's not suitable for marching." ” Hearing this, all the generals were discouraged, Zhan Hu couldn't hold his breath, and said loudly: "General Ziying, since entering Hedong these days, it has been foggy almost every day, is it possible that as soon as there is fog, the general will not be able to march Then when do we have to wait until we arrive at General Ziying in Qingyuan Don't forget, the king's military order has arrived." ” This is exactly what makes Ziying embarrassed.
He lowered his head and picked up the letter on the table, looked at it for a while, slapped the letter on the table, looked around at the generals, and said: "Pass my generals, the whole army will set up camp and march to Qingyuan."
"It's a general" The generals were in great spirits, and they all intervened in the order, turned around and walked out of the big tent together, and the soldiers of each headquarters began to pack up and prepare for the march.
It was very difficult to march in foggy conditions, it was dark, torches needed to be lit, and visibility was so poor that if a soldier walked a little slower, it was possible that he would not be able to see the people in front of him.
Marching in this kind of weather is also the most likely to fall behind on a large scale.
When the Flying Eagle Army marched forward, Ziying's heart had already risen to his throat, but Zhan Hu was extremely excited, and said to Jiang Fan, who was riding a horse beside him, while walking forward: "Wait until Qingyuan, General Jiang Fan don't fight with me, I will take the lead first." ” Even if Zhan Hu didn't ride a horse, he was not much shorter than Jiang Fan, and with his height, he was not suitable for horseback riding.
Jiang Fan smiled and nodded in response: "I am willing to suppress the battle for the Battle Tiger General." ” Jiang Fan's personality is low-key and indifferent, and he rarely takes the initiative to fight with others.
Zhan Hu likes this kind of person the most, and he feels very comfortable working with Jiang Fan, of course, the fact that Jiang Fan shot him with an arrow has long been forgotten by him.
After marching forward for about ten miles, the Sky Eagle Army came to a depression, where the terrain was high on both sides and low in the middle, and the official road was located in the middle.
Because of the low terrain, every time it rains, the rainwater collects on the road, causing the road surface to be extremely muddy even on a sunny day, and you can hardly see the surface of your feet when you step on it
