Chapter 507: Changes in Qianzhou


Gangneung, Wangfu At this time, the news of the Taiping army's surprise attack on Chenxian County had been brought back by the herald sent by Xue Dingshan.

Gao Qi, who heard the news, couldn't help but show a meaningful smile and muttered; "Peng Yue, Peng Yue, it's really your idea" From the very beginning, when he received information that the Taiping army would invade Xiangzhou on a large scale, Gao Qi did not think clearly why the Taiping army suddenly invaded without warning.

Moreover, its combat power has also undergone great changes, almost reborn.

Now, as Peng Yue surfaced, Gao Qi suddenly linked the connection.

"Pass the orphan order, go and summon Liu Bowen, the secretary of the ministry, and Xuanling, the secretary of the military department."

Immediately, after careful consideration, Gao Qi decided.

After all, it is still necessary for the important ministers of the court to know about this matter.

For a long time, under the convening of the chamberlain, Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling thought that something had happened, so they couldn't help but leave the government affairs in their hands, and hurried to Gao Qi's study.

"The ministers meet the king of Qi" For a while, Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling didn't dare to exceed the courtesy, and bowed their hands to meet them.

Seeing this, Gao Qi waved his hand to signal the two of them to get up, and then said slowly: "Bowen, Xuanling, Gu just received Xue Dingshan's battle report. ” "He sent an envoy to inform Gu that now our army Chenxian has been raided by the Taiping army, if he hadn't led the army in time to arrive, I'm afraid the consequences of Chenxian County would be unimaginable."

Immediately after, Gao Qi informed Liu and Fang of the content of the battle report.

Afterwards, Gao Qi said slowly: "I don't know what plan you two have to break the enemy, our army should not pay attention to the surprise attack of this enemy army."

As Gao Qi asked, Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling did not answer immediately, but were thinking quietly.

After thinking for a long time, Liu Bowen first arched his hand and said: "King Qi, in the opinion of the ministers, our army doesn't have to care too much."

"At this time, the 20,000 troops led by General Xue are all the elite of our army, and it is expected to be more than enough to deal with the surprise attack of the Taiping army."

Waiting for Liu Bowen to finish speaking, Fang Xuanling put forward different opinions.

"King Qi, according to the minister's opinion, the minister does not agree with Liu Shangshu's suggestion, although General Xue's department is elite."

"To tell the truth, there is no elite of our army, but according to General Xue's battle report, the main general of the enemy army can also be regarded as a general who knows the army."

"Although the surprise attack failed, it was not an immediate failure, but the garrison was dangerous, what was its attempt" "It is not difficult to imagine that Ranshigang is the intersection of the only grain road in Chenxian County to the south."

"Obviously, this is the plan of the enemy's commander-in-chief, which is to occupy the dangerous points and block the passage of our army's grain routes."

"As long as the food is exhausted, the troops of Wang Dudu and General Zhonghui will inevitably be defeated, and they will not be able to stop the main force of the Taiping army from going north."

"As a result, the situation of our army will also be worse, and it will become more and more unfavorable."

"Therefore, the minister suggested that the sergeants should be sent immediately to reinforce Chenxian, and General Xue would dispatch them uniformly to defeat the rebels, open up the grain route as soon as possible, and keep the grain route unblocked."

At this moment, Fang Xuanling had a disagreement with Liu Bowen, and they disagreed.

However, when the two of them finished speaking, they didn't make a big noise, but gave the choice to Gao Qi himself.

After all, the courtier's advice is only for the monarch's reference, and how the king chooses is not within the scope of the courtier's consideration.

Immediately, Gao Qi quietly pondered the countermeasures of Liu and Fang, weighing the pros and cons.

After thinking about it for a long time, Gao Qi finally chose Fang Xuanling's suggestion and immediately sent sergeants to reinforce and eliminate the enemy army that was attacking by surprise.

"I don't know what Xuan Ling thinks of the reinforced sergeants?"

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling showed a hint of a smile and arched his hand and said, "King Qi, in fact, you already have an idea, why do you still want to ask the ministers?"

"Now the governor of Qianzhou, Sun Kewang, has been investigating thieves in the territory in recent years and leading the army to suppress thieves."

"Nowadays, the law and order in the territory has long been very peaceful" "In this case, why don't you mobilize this main force to the south to support Chenxian and encircle and annihilate the Taiping army?"

"Haha" "Xuan Ling's words are very lonely" "In this case, by the lonely order, your military department will go and order it to be executed."

With Fang Xuanling's explanation, Gao Qi laughed and gave an order.

Qianzhou, Lu'an County, the capital of Luchuan City In the military palace, at this time, the governor Sun Kewang was discussing with the generals under his command on the map above the screen.

What kind of plan should be adopted to wipe out the Southern Barbarian army hidden in the mountains in one fell swoop In fact, Sun Kewang's strength is indeed strong, after accepting Gao Qi's order to appoint the military governor of Qianzhou.

Since Qianzhou has always been located at the southern end of Shudi, it has always been one of the active areas of Nanban.

However, since Sun Kewang took office, he has used division, co-optation, military conquest, and layers of means, and now the Southern Barbarian forces in Qianzhou have shrunk greatly.

When many tribes were forced to disband, they announced their disbandment, even if they were tribes that resisted forcibly, they were also wiped out by Sun Kewang with the power of thunder.

This move can be regarded as a great shock to the barbarians in the territory, either going down the mountain to accept the adaptation, or fleeing with their families.

It's just that there is no absolute, and there is a Southern Barbarian leader in this territory, and his prestige among the barbarians can be said to be increasing day by day The barbarians, who were powerful on weekdays, all went to attach themselves after seeing Sun Kewang's methods.

Meng Huo, this member was once in Yue Fei's Northern Expedition, and the leader of the Southern Barbarians who was beaten back and hid in the mountains couldn't help but return to the breeze of the past.

At this moment, as the barbarians joined one after another, their minds began to become active again.

Chang ordered his clansmen to lead his soldiers down the mountain to plunder the people.

This move can be regarded as a crime against Sun Kewang, and Sun Kewang can be said to be furious, and personally led the army to conquer several times.

It's just that Meng Shu is also extremely cunning and knows the gap between himself and the Qi army, so he is not entangled with the Qi army at all.

As soon as the Qi army arrived, they immediately retreated to the deep mountains like a lost dog, because the terrain in the deep mountains was complicated, the Qi army did not understand.

Therefore, Sun Kewang did not dare to lead the army into the mountains for a while, so over time, Meng Shu gradually became arrogant.

It was so active that it began to lead the army to attack some remote towns, search the treasury, and plunder the strategy of money and grain.

In order to eliminate the Nanban as soon as possible, Sun Kewang fell silent, and openly sent troops to guard against important places, but secretly he secretly recruited Orions who had been looking for them in the mountains all year round with heavy money, and understood the topography of the mountains.

Subsequently, Sun Kewang organized local recruitment, and his requirements were to adapt to various terrain, miasma, and so on in the mountains.

Sun Kewang named it "Flying Army".

In the past few months, the training of this army has also been effective, so Sun Kewang is ready to lead the army to defeat the Nanban and see the results.

It's just that suddenly, at this moment, the military department sent an envoy to inform Sun Kewang of the king's edict.

"Governor Sun, in accordance with the edict of the King of Qi, the current military department orders you to lead the army of Qianzhou south to Chenxian as soon as possible."

"Join forces with General Xue's soldiers, strive to defeat the Taiping army as soon as possible, and open up our Great Qi Grain Road."

For a while, Sun Kewang slowly received the order, at this time his heart could be described as extremely depressed, just about to show his strengths, but the next second was an edict.

Immediately after, Sun Kewang summoned the generals and said loudly: "In this case, this time Pontus will personally lead 30,000 standing troops south." ” "As for the newly trained flying army, they will continue to hide in Qianzhou, don't be exposed, and when Bendu returns, they will discuss the matter of destroying the Southern Barbarian Army."

It is only said that after receiving Gao Qi's edict, Sun Kewang did not dare to slack off, and after gathering the army in two days, he personally led the army south Guiyang County, Chenxian County At this moment, Peng Yue continued to lead the army to confront the Qi army in the area of Ranshigang.

Because Xue Dingshan also received Gao Qi's edict, he wanted to quickly destroy Peng Yue's army.

Therefore, Xue Dingshan immediately led the army to rush to the Ranshi Gang, but Peng Yue refused to fight and hung up the exemption card.

In desperation, Xue Dingshan had no choice but to launch a strong attack, and attacked several times, but none of them were obtained In order to reduce casualties, Xue Dingshan had to stop the attack and confront the Taiping army instead.

However, Xue Dingshan did not do anything, but asked Yue Fei, the governor of Xiangzhou, to mobilize siege equipment.

It is necessary to rely on the blow of siege equipment to destroy the Taiping army in one fell swoop.

On the other hand, Xue Dingshan was also waiting for Sun Kewang's reinforcements to arrive.

A few days later, the siege equipment escorted by Yue Fei gradually arrived at the Xue army's camp, and secondly, Sun Kewang also led the army to join it.

Suddenly, at this time, the Qi army assembled in the camp in the south of Chenxian County was nearly 50,000 troops, with many generals and sufficient siege equipment.

At this moment, can Peng Yue still resist the attack of the Qi army?

The next day, in the early morning, the Qi army, under the command of Xue Dingshan, gradually launched an attack on the defense line of the Taiping army again.

It's just that at this time, a major change occurred in Qianzhou, after Sun Kewang led the army away.

The Nanban tribe elected Meng Huo as its leader, and then Meng Huo gathered more than 100,000 tribesmen to go out of the mountains and attack the hinterland of Qianzhou.

For a time, the army of the Southern Barbarians was mighty, and they attacked the counties of Qianzhou in a mighty manner At this time, it was because the main force of Qianzhou was moving south under the assembly of Sun Kewang, and the rest of the garrison was stationed in various places.

For a moment and a half, it was impossible to assemble immediately, but the Southern Barbarian Army became more and more arrogant.

Meng Huo wantonly burned, killed and looted in various places, and did all kinds of evil Subsequently, Zhao Ji, who was engaged in Qianzhou, immediately sent the news to Jiangling, informed Gao Qi, and asked for reinforcements.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Jitun gathered all the armies, stuck to Luchuan City, and swore not to die.

With the march, after ten days, the Southern Barbarian Army also came slowly, and then under the orders of Meng Huo, they set up camp Luchuan City, at this time, was already under the front of the Southern Barbarian Army and was besieged.

Immediately, after some unsuccessful persuasion, the Southern Barbarian Army besieged the city from all sides and attacked the city.

It's just that because Zhao Ji has been prepared for a long time, the military food is sufficient, and the materials for defending the city have already been prepared, plus Luchuan is the capital of Xiangzhou, but the first line of the city is a city with high walls and thick walls.

The Southern Barbarian Army is also a soldier but has little food and low combat effectiveness, but it has not been attacked for a long time for Luchuan, and it has long been stopped Regarding the changes in Qianzhou, how will Gao Qi deal with the great chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty :
