Chapter 840


Chapter 840 The 200,000 Zhen army commanded by Li Cheng didn't care about other things, and had only one goal, that is, Yancheng, the wind capital.

If he did not lead the army to evacuate Chongcheng at this time, but stayed and garrisoned, it would be a huge trouble for the main force of the Feng army that was retreating towards Chongcheng.

But the battle situation was not if, Li Cheng led the army to Textile City, and the next morning, the main force of the Feng army led by Tang Yin arrived in Chongcheng.

After entering the city, when people saw the scene of the mess in the city, they were also shocked, and they did not understand what was going on here.

Soon, the remnants of the defeated army who had escaped the catastrophe and hid in various parts of the city heard that their army had arrived, and they all came out and told the generals of the wind army everything that had happened in the city.

After listening, all the wind generals were a little dizzy, the Zhen army actually attacked Chongcheng, when did they enter the wind country How to march faster than their own side Besides, since they have captured Chongcheng, why don't they stay and garrison, and unite with the main army of Chuan Zhen to flank their own side There are so many questions in this that people don't know.

Tang Yin was able to calm his breath, his mind was still calm at this time, and he asked the defenders of Chongcheng: "How many people are in the enemy army and in which direction are they running?"

One of the soldiers replied: "The enemy army is about 200,000 strong, and when they leave the city, they are heading north."

With so many people, Tang Yin's thoughts were flexible, and after pondering carefully, he already understood the general idea in his heart.

He looked around at the generals and said firmly: "These 200,000 Zhen troops are not here to block the retreat of our army, but to attack the capital. ” As soon as these words came out, everyone inhaled together, no wonder the other party only rested in Chongcheng for three hours and then ran away in a hurry, it turned out that their target was Yancheng.

Qiu Zhen also felt that Tang Yin's analysis was reasonable, and he hurriedly said: "King, the capital is empty, and now I am afraid it will be difficult to parry the 200,000 Zhen army."

What he said was the truth, in order to resist the invasion of the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army, Tang Yin basically took away all the soldiers who could fight, and now the basic ones who stayed in the capital were the reserve army of the Wind Country, that is, all the recruits who had just joined the army, without systematic training and no experience in fighting, even so, its strength was less than 50,000.

With only such a small number of troops, and no combat effectiveness, it is impossible to resist the 200,000 Zhen army that is extremely ferocious.

As for the generals in the army, they are even more pitiful, and the only thing worth mentioning is Lei Zhen, who is unwilling to take a step out of the wind country even if he dies.

Tang Yin frowned and was silent, but his mind was running at a rapid pace, considering how to deal with the situation in front of him.

It is impossible to expect the capital to protect itself, and it is even more impossible for your own army to go to reinforcements, which will attract the main force of the Chuan Zhen coalition army together, and when the army is in the city, there is no room for maneuver.

The generals looked at Tang Yin from the sidelines, and people also had their own thoughts in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it easily, now it is a matter of the survival of the capital, and it is also related to the life and death of the Wind Country, and everyone can only wait for Tang Yin to make a decision.

After a long time, Tang Yin looked at Lotte and Ai Jia and said, "Immediately send a message to all counties in the north, organize local armies, and find a way to stop Zhenren no matter what."

In addition, the cities were also informed to set up their defenses and defend them, and to be sure to keep the enemy troops out of the city."

"It's the king" Lotte and Aijia should both be.

Then, Tang Yin looked at Peng Haochu again and said: "Haochu, you lead the Chifeng army to chase the enemy, if you can, you will fight, if you can't, you will also drag the enemy army to my death, and you must not let them go to the capital."

"It's the king" Peng Haochu intervened to receive the order.

Qiu Zhen asked, "King, what about us?"

Tang Yin didn't answer immediately, but asked the city defenders: "How much grain and grass is there in the city?"

The defenders looked at each other, and finally lowered their heads in unison and stammered: "No, no, the granaries have been looted by the Zhen army, and the people in the city have also been sacked by the Zhen army, and many people have died."

"These brutes" The faces of the generals of the Feng army were pale, and their clenched fists gurgled.

Tang Yin was not surprised, if he was the chief general of the Zhen Army, he would also let his subordinates do what they did.

He nodded and said: "There is no food in the city, our army can't hold on, and we have to retreat."

"King, are you retreating north?"

"Retreat to the east," Tang Yin said, "The capital is empty, and we can no longer lead the main force of the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army in the direction of the capital." ” "The King Means" "Our army is fighting with the enemy in the three counties of Tai'an, Shangqing, and Gaoyang."

Tang Yin said categorically.

"But," Qiu Zhen said in embarrassment, "our army has too few troops. ” At present, they have more than 400,000 troops, and after sending 100,000 Chifeng troops, there are only more than 300,000 left, and among these 300,000 people, 250,000 are Ning troops, and 100,000 of them are new troops that have no combat effectiveness and can only be cannon fodder.

Of course, Tang Yin knew how big the difference in strength between the two armies was, and he also understood how difficult this battle would be, but now there was no other way but to do so.

Others can show worried expressions, but Tang Yin, as a monarch, cannot, no matter how bottomless he is in his heart, he has to show full confidence.

At a disadvantage, if the confidence of the soldiers collapses again, it will be completely hopeless.

He smiled calmly and said: "No matter how big the disadvantage is, we have not experienced it, when Zhong Tian rebelled, he sent a million troops to encircle and suppress us who had just started the army, but the result was not a big defeat that we killed Now the situation is much better than then, at least all counties and counties are still under our control." ” Qiu Zhen sighed secretly, the king only said the good, not the bad, Zhong Tian's million-strong army was actually mostly a rabble, where could it be compared with the Chuanzhen coalition army, but he also understood what Tang Yin meant, he was cheering up the generals.

Although he didn't break it, his brow was still furrowed.

His support was very important to Tang Yin, who patted Qiu Zhen on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Qiu Zhen, I said before that it is up to you to formulate a big strategy and guide the general direction; And the battle with the hostiles, the handover of handovers, depends on me.

I have faith in you, and you have to have faith in me."

Qiu Zhen was amused by his words, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Since the king has made a decision, the minister will naturally swear to defend the king's decision."

"En" Tang Yin nodded, looked around at the generals again, and asked, "What do you think about the generals?"

All the generals were in high spirits, and they all intervened to give salutes, and said in unison: "The last general is from the king's dispatch" After the Feng army arrived at Chongcheng, it changed its strategy, gave up retreating to the north, and instead marched to the east, based on the three eastern counties, and fought with the main force of the Sichuan Zhen coalition army.

Ren Fang and Nie Ze naturally pursued the main force of the Wind Army, and their goal was also very clear, that is, to completely annihilate the main force of the Wind Army and capture Tang Yin, if Tang Yin did not die, it would be impossible for the Wind Country to truly perish.

To go to the three eastern counties, you must first pass through Gaochuan County, which was originally the burial place of Zhong Tian and the remnants of the Zhan brothers, and now they have traveled here, and everyone's hearts are full of flavors.

For the Wind Army, they originally came here to chase and kill the enemy army, but now they are here again, but they have become chased and killed by the enemy army.

As for the Ning people, led by Zuo Shuang, the mood is even more complicated.

At the beginning, the remnants of the Ning army led by the warriors and the invincible were here to fight to the death with the wind army, and unfortunately all of them were killed, and now, they have become part of the wind army, and they have to fight side by side with the former enemy to resist the Sichuan Zhen coalition army, the world is unpredictable, and people can't help but sigh, if the Zhan brothers have a spirit in the sky, they don't know how to feel when they see this scene.

Most of the Takakawa counties were mountainous, so it was not easy to march, and the speed of the wind army began to slow down.

On the way, Qiu Zhen said to Tang Yin: "King, the mountains of Gaochuan County are vertical and horizontal, and the mountains and forests are everywhere, how about our army fighting the enemy here?"

Tang Yin also thought so, but he couldn't find a suitable tactic for a while.

The commander of the Chuanzhen coalition army, Ren Fang, was extremely good at using his troops and strategic, and his own strength in a head-to-head confrontation was insufficient, and it was unlikely that he would set up an ambush to lead the enemy.

He pondered for a long time and asked, "Can our army take advantage of the danger of the water to fight a water battle with the other side?"

He clearly remembered that the last time he led the army to fight Panshui, it was also very difficult.

Before Qiu Zhen could speak, a strategist named Fan Shan on the side shook his head again and again, and said urgently: "The king is not good at water warfare, but the Sichuan army is not.

Sichuan is located in the southeast, there are many rivers in the territory, and it is near the sea, and the Sichuan people know the surname of water, and water warfare is not the strength of our army, so it is absolutely impossible to fight the enemy on the water. ” Fan Shan is only a military counselor now, and he hasn't been in the army for a long time, Tang Yin can't even call his name, but he and Tang Yin are still a little related.

Fan Shan is a distant relative of Fan Min, one of Tang Yin's wives, and is considered Fan Min's maiden family, if it weren't for this, with his qualifications, it would be impossible for him to sit in the position of a military counselor as soon as he joined the army, at best he would be an ordinary soldier.

Although Fan Shan became a counselor in the army by relying on his connections, he himself has real talent and learning, he is proficient in military books and war strategies, has a flexible mind, and is good at scheming, and can be called a genius in the military field.

Tang Yin didn't know much about Fan Shan, he had never seen this person before, and he didn't know that he was Fan Min's distant relative, after listening to Fan Shan's words, he sighed softly, it seems that water warfare is not a good strategy.

He muttered, "In this way, our army can only give up Gaochuan County." ” At this time, Zuo Shuang walked up to Tang Yin, intervened in the salute, and said, "King, the last general wants to go to Zhangyu." ” Zhangyu is the county capital of Gaochuan County, and if the Fengjun just wants to pass through Gaochuan County, they will not pass through Zhangyu.

Tang Yin didn't know why, and asked, "Zuo Shuang, what are you going to do in Zhangyu?"

"The last general wants to pay homage to the two generals, Wushuang and Invincible" As soon as these words came out, all the people present will not change color
