Chapter 1023: Rebels


While Shangguan Xiu was getting dressed, he warned: "Not only can our army not withdraw, but we must also block the news.

No matter who we tell, not a single word about the urgent matter in Beijing should be revealed."

"This" Yuchi really looked embarrassed, Shangguan Xiu shouted sternly: "You don't understand."

The families of the main generals in the army are all in Beijing.

Once they know that there is an emergency in Beijing, their families may fall into the hands of the rebels at any time, and the whole army will be in chaos.

Ningnan When the army comes to fight, you will be defeated first.

Shangguan Xiu understood this truth, but Yuchi Zhen didn't understand it.

He gritted his teeth, bowed and said, "The last general will obey the order."

Shangguan Xiu said to Zhang Xiao again: "Send a message to the Zhenjun army and mobilize the second and fourth legions to retreat to Zhenjun immediately."

Among the three major national war battlefields, the first-ranked Duji battlefield, both countries have invested their main forces, and no soldiers can move rashly.

The second-ranked middle battlefield, that is, the Mingshui County battlefield, has a crucial geographical location and directly affects The situation of the entire national war cannot be acted upon rashly.

The only thing that can be moved is the third battlefield located in the south of Ningnan.

There are three legions of the Zhenjun Army there, plus the sixth and eleventh legions.

Originally there was also the fifth legion, and then the fifth legion.

The Fifth Army Corps went north to assist the middle battlefield, On the southern battlefield, the Feng Army did not encounter a strong enemy, and the battle went smoothly.

The five legions were advancing with overwhelming momentum and were now approaching the southwest of Ningnan.

The strategic intention is to cut off the connection between Tianjing and western Ningnan, and prepare in advance for the Feng Kingdom army to capture Tianjing.

At the same time, it is also to prevent Ningnan from moving the capital westward.

Now that the domestic situation is critical, Shangguan Xiu has no choice but to change his original tactics and deploy two legions from the southern front to take the route of Shah and Zhenjun and return home to help Tianjing.

But in this way, it is no longer possible for the Feng army on the southern battlefield to continue to advance southwest and deep into the hinterland of Ningnan.

Zhang Xiao bowed his hands and saluted, and said urgently: "Yes, Brother Xiu, I will do it now."

Wu Yufei helped Shangguan Xiu prepare his luggage and said, "Brother Xiu, I will go back to China with you."

Shangguan Xiu nodded and asked, "Jue's injuries are true."

"You can't go out to the fields yet," Wu Yufei asked, "Brother Xiu, do you want to inform Lao Duan and bring all the brothers from Yingqi with you?"

Shangguanxiu shook his head and said: "Let Lao Duan stay, I will only bring a hundred people."

He glanced at Yuchi Zhen and said meaningfully: "There are a large number of people from the world gathered in Mingshui County.

I am here Here, their target is me.

After I leave, their target will be you.

During my absence, brothers Lao Duan and Ying Qi can keep you safe."

Unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, Shangguan Xiu could still care about his own safety.

Yuchi was deeply moved, knelt down and said: "Last General" He only said two words, Shangguan Xiu pulled him up and said: "No need to say more nonsense, you are the commander of the whole army, in the middle."

On the battlefield, I leave it to General Yuchi."

Shangguan Xiu didn't like Yu Chizhen very much.

The reason why Duan Qiyue and so many Shadow Banner personnel were left to protect him was because he was the commander of the entire army.

He couldn't have an accident, otherwise the Feng army would be in chaos.

To put it bluntly, even if a cat or a dog is sitting in the position of the army commander, Shangguan Xiu will send someone to ensure that he is foolproof.

Shangguan Xiu, Wu Yufei and more than a hundred Dark Banner and Shadow Banner personnel quietly left the camp late at night.

Not to mention that the Ningnan Army didn't know it yet.

Even in the Feng Army camp, only Yuchi Zhen knew about it. , Tang Yu's rebels and Tang Li's rebels advanced much faster than everyone expected, especially Tang Yu's rebels.

Although Fengjun was far away from Shangjing, with Mojun and Anjun in between, the rebels The army marched south from Feng County and encountered almost no resistance after entering Mo County.

Before the rebels arrived, the county lieutenant of Mo County had been assassinated first.

Deputy County Lieutenant Nangong Shang took over the military power and directly led the county army to besiege the county governor's mansion.

The county guard was captured alive by the county army, and the actual control of Mo County had been lost. into the hands of Nangong Shang, and this Nangong Shang was already Tang Yu’s man.

After Tang Yu's rebels entered Mo County, not only did they not encounter any resistance, they also accepted all the 30,000 county troops as ordered, and the number of troops suddenly increased by 30,000.

Passing through Mo County is An County.

An County is adjacent to Shangjing and is the economic center of Feng State.

The officials in An County's Sheriff's Office and County Lieutenant's Office are basically Tang Ling's diehard loyalists from top to bottom.

After the rebels entered Anjun, they encountered strong resistance from the Anjun army.

However, compared with the menacing rebels, the resistance of the Anjun local army was like a mantis using its arms as a chariot.

People in Anjun are not good at fighting.

This has been a tradition since ancient times.

As early as when the princes were divided and Anjun was still an country, Anjun, equipped with top-notch weapons and armor, was a weak persimmon on the battlefield.

For hundreds of years In the past, Anren did not change much; The rebels marched straight into An County.

The local troops in An County were defeated in a row.

In the end, they all retreated into the county town and could not get out.

The main force of the rebels then besieged the town, and a small group of troops bypassed the town.

Continue south, heading towards Beijing, As for the Tang Li rebels in Sichuan County, they are very close to Beijing.

However, compared to Tang Yu's rebels who went all the way south, the Tang Li rebels moved north more slowly.

It can be seen that Tang Yu's rebels moved northward at a slower pace.

Li did not plan to be Tang Yu's vanguard and attack Shangjing first.

Instead, he was waiting for the main force of Tang Yu's rebels to arrive in Shangjing.

They would then join Tang Yu's rebels and join forces to capture Shangjing.

Let’s talk about Shangguan Xiu and his party.

They first entered Ningjun in Feng Kingdom from Ningnan, then went south from Ningjun to Yujun, and then traveled southeast from Yujun to Anjun.

Along the way, everyone slept and ate in the open, traveling day and night.

The Dark Flag personnel received important information from various places from time to time.

Each piece of intelligence was basically bad news.

First, the Mojun local army defected, and then Anjun fell.

Tang Yu's rebels were so powerful that their 300,000-strong army moved southward.

When they approached Shangjing, they actually expanded to Four hundred thousand people, Although Tang Li's rebels did not expand further, they did not suffer much damage.

They still numbered 200,000.

Two rebel armies, totaling 600,000 people, arrived in Shangjing.

Shangjing had reached a critical moment.

On this day, Shangguanxiu and others rushed to the vicinity of Yuzhen.

When they arrived at Yuzhen, the war in Yuzhen had been declared over.

To be precise, the rebels did not attack Yuzhen.

The main army had bypassed Yuzhen and continued southward, heading towards Beijing.

Obviously, in the eyes of the rebels, all strategic locations are secondary.

The most important thing is to capture Shangjing and help Tang Yu proclaim himself emperor as soon as possible.

Although Shangguan Xiu and others traveled day and night to get from Mingshui County in Ningnan to the vicinity of Yuzhen, it still took them more than a month.

Three carriages alone have broken down.

The small carriage Shangguanxiu is riding in, which can only accommodate two people, is already the fourth.

Near Yuzhen, it is still peaceful, and there is no depression like the chaos in the world.

There are still many people on the road, and there are even large and small caravans traveling frequently.

When passing by a roadside tea shed, Shangguan Xiu asked the team to stop and ask them to buy some tea and take a rest.

It no longer takes one day to travel from Yuzhen to Shangjing.

The team stopped in the woods on the roadside, and the horses were grazing in the woods.

After the people dismounted, they didn't even have the strength to stand up.

They leaned on the tree trunks, sat on the ground, and fell asleep.

During these days, they were in such a hurry that they lost count of their horses to death.

Even if they were all spiritual cultivators, their bodies couldn't bear it anymore.

In the past month, Shangguanxiu has been riding in a carriage, and his health has been well maintained.

He is exhausted, but his internal and external injuries have almost healed.

He got off the carriage and walked into the tea shed with Wu Yufei.

There were many people in the tea shed.

Seeing that the two of them were tired from work, they didn't even look at them a second time.

Shangguan Xiu and Wu Yufei sat down and ordered a pot of tea.

While drinking tea, they listened to the discussions of the people around them.

"I heard that King Yu's army has begun to attack the city.

I don't know if the imperial court can withstand it."

"King Yu and King De have millions of troops.

How many men and horses are there in going to the capital?

They only have the first legion, the Imperial Guards, and the government officials of the Lieutenant's Mansion.

How can they withstand such a huge army in the capital with such a small number of troops and horses?

," "It seems like things are going to change."

"Our country's army is fighting in the south of Ningxia, but the country is about to change its dynasty.

I don't know if this national war can continue."

"Why are we still fighting?

We will probably have to withdraw soon," "Oh, it's such a troubled time now.

I just hope that the soldiers fighting on the front line can be withdrawn safely," "I'm afraid that the mistakes of the war will happen again this time."

After hearing this, the people present all sighed and shook their heads.

Regarding the rebellion of Tang Yu and Tang Li, the people did not dare to judge what was right or wrong, but they all remembered the disastrous defeat of the Feng Kingdom in a war.

Millions of Feng Kingdom soldiers buried their bones in Ningnan, and the Ningnan Army took advantage of the situation.

Enter, attack the Feng Kingdom.

After so many years, Ning County, which was the most severely damaged by the Ningnan people, still has not recovered.

Listening to the common people talking, Shangguan Xiu looked solemn.

Although he knew very well that Tang Yu and Tang Qi did not have a million-strong army, even if they only had 600,000, it was not something that the First Army could resist.

He winked at Wu Yufei, who took out a handful of coins from her arms, slapped them on the table, and stood up to leave.

At this moment, a group of soldiers quickly ran over.

This group of soldiers was dressed in a mixed manner.

Some were wearing leather armor, some were only wearing cloth clothes, some were wearing leather boots, and some were only wearing straw sandals.

But one thing was the same.

They all held devices in their hands.

The fire blunderbuss of the blunderbuss sword, Seeing these people, Shangguan Xiu immediately judged that they were all rebels.

The local army of Anjun is not dressed like this.

The people of Anjun may not be good at fighting, but they must use the best in everything.

The local army of Anjun is the only army among the ten counties of Feng Kingdom that still wears steel helmets and armor. , and the Anjun Army’s steel helmets and armor, that They are all made of pure stainless steel, engraved with exquisite flowers and lifelike auspicious animals, and then painted with black paint.

Even the armor worn by the most ordinary soldiers will look like exquisite works of art when taken off.

Put it in your home for decoration.

This group of rebels numbered more than thirty people.

When they arrived at the tea shed, they immediately surrounded the small tea shed.

A captain wearing a leather helmet and leather boots walked out of the crowd, curled his mouth, looked at the people in the carport, laughed, and shouted in a loud voice: "Go, go, damn it."

Get lost, the military men have taken over this place."

The common people dared not speak out against the rebels.

They put down their tea money one after another, then stood up and walked out silently.

Before they could walk out of the tea shed, all the rebels held the fire in their hands.

The blunderbuss was fired, blocking everyone's way.

The leader of the team The commander took off his helmet and handed it to a rebel soldier beside him.

He said with a smile: "Everyone, the military lords risked their heads to help you kill the demon girl and establish a wise master.

You just left like that without even a hint?"

The rebel next to him held his helmet and walked up to the people.

He looked at everyone, then licked his lips into the helmet, and said with a strange smile: "Don't pretend to be stupid.

You can show your support, but don't say you didn't bring it."

Money, who the hell doesn’t know, you people in Anjun are the richest, ordinary people wear silk and satin on weekdays, you are so rich,":
