Chapter 1229: Grab the time (Part 1)
The battle of Shicheng defeated the Jiangzhou soldiers, which made Wang Bin, who was in charge of Fengkou, angry but not Poyang. After carefully understanding the battle process, the wealthy families in Yuzhang County were cowardly in their hearts.
Even if the news is blocked, I know that the silver spear that Emperor Shao Xun of Liang relied on to accomplish his career, and the reputation of the imperial guards of the Sixth Battalion of Hei Xiao.
If the person had participated in the war in Jingzhou and had close contact with the Liang Dynasty's imperial guards, he would be even more frightened.
The frontal breaks the edge and breaks the sharp edge without using any tricks to weaken one's combat effectiveness, such as cutting off food, setting up ambush, spreading rumors, etc., just rushing and breaking with one blow. The difference in the quality of the soldiers on both sides is clear at a glance, and there is nothing to say.
So, more people were watching.
Of course, the main reason for their wait-and-seeness is not actually the failure of an encounter, but more importantly, seeing that the Liang people have gained a foothold in Xuancheng and cannot be expelled for a short time. From now on, more and more people will smuggle across the river.
It is not surprising that more than 10,000 elite soldiers gathered in Xuancheng. Once the scale rises to this level, it will be basically difficult to fight.
Yang Qin didn't know what the natives in Jiangzhou were thinking. At this moment, he was sitting in the Shicheng County government office and talking to the "talents" of the wealthy families who were rushing to one after another.
"You can't even be called a cold person, why do you work for Sima's son? It's ridiculous!" Yang Qin sat on a table with a big sword, pointing his halberd to everyone and said, "The position of prefectures and counties is often given to overseas Chinese, even if it is the position of the chief of the commander, it is also the overseas Chinese. The scholars can share it equally. Don't you think about being a member of the commander of the commander of the country in your life, and you will be bullied to the end. Do you want to surrender?"
After saying that, he waved.
"General, I'm here." Shichengwei Liu Xiaoshu, wearing an official robe, jogged over.
To be honest, this look and appearance are really not satisfactory.
Even if you look vulgar, you won’t be able to behave!
A trotted and flattering look did not feel like "taking a step calmly, like a weapon in the temple".
When running, you are busy holding the cage crown, which violates the principle of "slow but not stagnant" hand movement.
His voice was too rough and unrestrained, without the "sound of Gongshang".
As the saying goes, "The sound is like a bell, and the word is like a flowing spring, and the wisdom is deep." Without a strong and upright voice, how can you "control the crowd without losing the harmony"?
Finally, he said that he was standing in a position, bent down and bent his knees, without the "rock rock is like a lonely pine" style that scholars do.
In short, all kinds of awkwardness are all there, if the Ministry of Personnel really sends people to the assessment, it will definitely continue to be eliminated.
But then again, today's Daliang Dynasty has many officials who started from a small scale. According to the standards of the Ministry of Personnel's etiquette, few people can become officials. After all, they have not received strict etiquette and demeanor training since childhood.
Even the emperor Shao Xun is in a "civil and wood shape", what else can you say? But his good boys are good. No matter how they look, they are very standard in every move and every word and action. Obviously, they have been trained by their mother since childhood.
After Liu Xiaoshu stood still, he faced everyone and was slightly proud.
Everyone looked at Liu Xiaoshu and was also a little surprised. Has this guy actually become an official?
"Our army first crossed the river, Liu Xiaoshu worked with cattle and wine to work hard, and was extremely respectful, so he obtained the position of Shichengwei. From today on, you must obey his orders and be happy to donate military rewards. If you establish merits, it is not impossible to shine the family and honor our ancestors." Yang Qin said.
"General, I am willing to donate three thousand hu of grain and send 500 troops. Maybe another official?" Someone couldn't help it.
He said eagerly.
The accent was a bit strange. It was obvious that I hadn't read the rhyme well, but I still understood it roughly. Yang Qin pretended to ponder for a while and said, "It's not enough."
"General, I have also taken in several Daliang Heavenly Soldiers. I heard that they are all from Luoyang, so I can return them now." This man was anxious and said again.
"Oh?" Yang Qin was a little surprised and said, "They are on your house?"
"Yes." The man nodded repeatedly and said, "I treat you with courtesy."
"I thought you would arrest them as slaves." Yang Qin looked at him playfully and said.
The man's heart suddenly broke out and asked for a supplement, "I asked them to rest well, but they refused. They must feed the horses on the farm."
"Forget it, send someone back." Yang Qin said.
After saying that, someone brought the official uniform seal and ribbon, and said, "You can be the general of the Sanjun. Check the shopkeeper as soon as possible, distribute equipment, and listen to my order."
"As for the order." The man said happily.
"General, my family also has Daliang Heavenly Soldiers-----" In an instant, seven more people stood up and said, "Noisy!" Yang Qin slapped his thigh and said angrily: "Send everyone back and forgive you for being innocent. You must not lose food. Send it to Shicheng as soon as possible. Vehicles, drivers, and people must also be prepared. This matter will be led by General Liu Xiaoshu."
"As for the order." Liu Xiaoshu straightened his back and looked at everyone. His demeanor became miraculously strong. He only heard him say, "Although the villagers are ruthless, I don't want to be favored. Please follow me and discuss the military resources."
After saying that, he waved and left first.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and then looked at the soldiers in the yard, leaving reluctantly.
"Rat!" After everyone was exposed, Yang Qin sneered and said.
Tang Xiang smiled and said, "In the future, the governor's family went south to buy industries, so you can ask these people for it."
"What kind of oil can they have?" Yang Qin laughed and said, "Wanling Tao family land and houses are everywhere in Xuancheng County, this is the fat sheep."
"The governor is wise." Tang Xiang praised.
"Do you look like a warrior like this?" Yang Qin stood up and said, "Send people to the riverside to see if you can contact Jiangbei and send another group of people over."
*******
The battles on both sides of Lujiang have been going on for many days.
Shanxia's big ship could not enter, but it allocated many small boats to carry military land, arrived on the other side from the river, and fought repeatedly.
Their main opponent is Ji.
At first, because of the Liang cavalry, they suffered a small loss when fighting with Ji. However, as the Liang army gradually moved eastward, Ji was defeated in a row, so that Shanxia killed under Xuancheng and besieged for many days until the Liang cavalry was forced to return, Shanxia suffered a defeat.
If someone had not fought to the death to cut off the rear, the besieged army would have been unable to retreat to the west bank of Lujiang. But in this way, they would not be able to easily capture Xuancheng.
Shanxia did not give up, and he also searched for land from upstream and downstream to cross the river. He had a victory or defeat with the Liang army. The war was always deadlocked, and it was difficult for both sides to completely defeat the other side.
The stalemate was not a complete bad thing. At least it dragged down the Liang army with relatively strong combat power, making it impossible for them to advance eastward and go north to build camps for Yu Tan, Liu Chao and others, organize defense and even wait for opportunities for reinforcements.
However, after the news that the Liang army had landed in large numbers and occupied Shicheng on the west of the tenth day of April, Shanxia felt a little anxious.
"There is no news from Hefei. The situation in Liyang is critical. Even Wuhu often sees thieves. "Shanxia walks on the reeds on the west bank of Lujiang River, and the lakeside, his mind is a little distracted, and he said, "The army is clamoring and wants to return to Wuhu, what if it does?"
"Governor." Xu Chao glared and said, "Why did the army retreat before it was defeated? It is difficult for me, Xu, to destroy the family. The emperor is fighting hard for the court, and no less than ten children were killed or injured. None of them retreated. Why did the governor retreat? Could he give Xuancheng to the Liang bandits?"
When talking, the snow-white beard flutters in the wind and has its own momentum.
Shanxia sighed inwardly.
In fact, he couldn't figure out what he was thinking. He probably was discouraged and disappointed and didn't know what to do.
When the Liang army attacked Jiangbei in a large-scale attack, he ordered the infant cities in various places to defend themselves. When the spring flowers bloomed, the navy launched a large-scale move to contact Zhucheng, and the encirclement was self-dispelled.
Unexpectedly, the situation in Jiangnan took a sharp turn. He was forced to draw elite troops from Jiangbei and gathered more than 15,000 people, transported by the Ruxuwu Navy, crossed the river to the south, and reinforced Xuancheng. Now he has been dragged here, and the Jiangbei city walls have fallen one after another and are unable to rescue them.
This is not his fault, it is caused by the overall decline, but the anger and frustration in his heart will only be more.
Xu Chao was the governor of the Ruxuwu Navy, commanding hundreds of ships of all sizes and 10,000 soldiers. He did not participate in land warfare.
But I am very concerned about Xuancheng and have been urging Shanxia to persevere in recent days.
"Governor, our army already has a city on the east bank, and the bandits of Liang cannot defeat it. Now we should do our best to conquer Xuancheng, and attack General Liu and Yufujun, destroy this stubborn enemy, and then turn around to fight with the new enemy." Xu Chao said, "There are less than four hundred thieves in Xuancheng, and there are only hundreds of elite infantry who dare to fight.
If Ji and others are like pigs and dogs, they will be able to win if they last for another ten days."
"What should I do if Xin'an?" Shan Xia asked.
"You can persuade the King of Langya to lead the troops to attack and then clean up Dongyang County together." Xu Chao said, "If he doesn't want to, I will go and persuade him."
"If the King of Langya is not willing, it is actually incapable of governing the army." Shanxia said, "Forget it, I will send Sima away and suppress the generals. At this moment, I must not care about the face of Langya."
It is not useless to defeat the King of Langya Sima.
Seeing that he was still in control of his troops, Ji Cheng thought there was an opportunity, so he led two thousand soldiers to attack Anwu. He was defeated by Sima Chong's tent, and Jingxian did not dare to stay. He led more than a thousand defeated soldiers back to Xuancheng.
After the rebellion of Xin'an County, Sima Chong wanted to attack him, but the generals were either imperial guards or Wuhu's strong men.
When I heard that the rear was unstable, I thought that I would return to the north, but Sima Chong could not control it.
As for Dongyang County, that was something that just happened in the past two days.
The prefect raised the flag and surrendered to the beam, but failed to coordinate the internal affairs and killed the county generals, and still returned to Dapu. However, the internal affairs of Dongyang County are very chaotic now, and the two factions attack each other, and it is difficult to decide the outcome for a while, and the local area has ruined the disaster.
"General's clarification." Seeing Shanxia willing to stay here, Xu Chao was overjoyed and said, "Now we should have deep ditches and high bases to curb the bandits. When the heat is hot, the people of Liang will not be able to hold on for a long time and will not be defeated far away."
Shanxia didn't want to say much, so he said, "Send someone to urge you to eat food and grass. The grain in Jiangzhou may not be easy to be requested."
Jiangzhou has a characteristic, which is that it has a lot of towns. The meritorious officials of the Dapu Dynasty were densely distributed in Jiangzhou counties, which led to the difficulty of levying and allocating taxes. If you don’t urge me, it will be a long time to delay.
After Xu Chao left, Shanxia still stood there, thinking quietly.
The court was actually calm and had never commanded blindly. He fully trusted him, even if Jiangbei lost his city repeatedly.
The situation is clear now.
The Liang people wanted to break the defense lines in Xuancheng and Wuxing as much as possible before the summer heat came, and enter Bo Jianyou.
Xu Chao suggested that he stay here, echoing Liu Chao, Yu Tan and others in the east, block the enemy as much as possible, and drag it until summer to see if he could survive the crisis.
