Chapter One Hundred and Twenty-Five: The Anti-Insurgency War That Triggers
Kou Shi was a loyal minister and a close minister who had close friendship with Zhao Heng, so when Zhao Heng fell ill, he began to fulfill his duties conscientiously.
"The three routes of Xingguo Army, Xuande Army, and Ninghai Army were in a double-team to suppress the rebellion. Jiangling Prefecture, Shengzhou, and Hangzhou were responsible for raising food and grass."
In the Privy Council, looking at the area marked as the pseudo-Chu on the map, Kou Wei was no longer nervous: "Although Hongzhou is rich, it is also a place for four battles. It is no longer as dangerous as Yizhou's Shanguan Jiange. The imperial army can gather and settle in a long time."
The Liao army of more than 100,000 was defeated by his Kou Gun's dispatched troops, and he was afraid that the local miscellaneous anti-army would be less than 10,000?
This is a battle to combat rebellion that seems to be victorious but not defeated in the Privy Council.
The court's response was very fast, and the troops used were all the imperial guards in the heart of the Central Plains, which were close to the Fu Shuzhou Prefecture. There should be sufficient food, fodder and supplies, and there was no need to wait. As soon as Kou's order arrived, these places were conveniently moved.
A total of 130,000 troops!
This is the strength of the court. In an instant, an army of ten thousand more people than half of the Liao Kingdom's country's southern expedition was sent.
Kou Wei's mind was to scare the pseudo-Chu regime before he was beaten!
At this moment, Luo Yongsheng, who was stepping on the Yangtze River, could already smell the smell of golden swords and iron horses.
"Jiujiang is definitely unstoppable."
Luo Yongsheng's armored boots stomped on the embankment, shattering a lot of pieces of mud, which made Luo Yongsheng a little dissatisfied: "Tofu Scrap Project."
The commander of the army who responded to the rebellion followed and fell silent when he heard this.
Yes, the Xingguo Army opposite the Yangtze River has two brigades of 50,000 people, and Jiujiang has a maximum of 2,500 people. What should I do to guard it?
After more than ten days of expansion, only three or four thousand people were recruited. The entire army of the anti-rebellion army had less than 10,000 people combined, and the main force had to stay in Hongzhou.
"There is a plan below to defeat the Xingguo Army."
At this moment, a loud shout sounded, causing Luo Yongsheng to turn his head and find that the speaker was a scholar about twenty-seven or eight years old, standing behind Luo Yongjie.
"Who are you?"
"When King Chu was named Zhou Zhen, and he was a visitor in the Major General's mansion."
The name Luo Yongsheng sounded a little familiar, and then said, "I have a little impression of you."
"If you have any good ideas, tell me, if it is indeed feasible, I might as well give you an errand. But I am not willing to become an official in this country that is about to be overthrown. Haha, a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall."
"Why should the king be too humble? Now the king has three victories and the Song has three defeats, so how can the building collapse?"
Good guy, all three wins and three losses have come out, and Luo Yongsheng has indeed become interested.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Where are there any three victories, and who will lose three victories? I wish to hear and see the best."
"One of these, the king had already occupied the great power as soon as the proclamation was issued. Although the Song Dynasty was powerful, the alliance of Chanyuan was completely lost. The army that was launched was lost and the hearts of the people were all rootless.
Secondly, the king's soldiers were all elite troops, like wielding his arms, and orders were prohibited; on the other hand, the Song army was coming in full force, but three commanders were set up. How could one army have ordered three people in history?
Third, Hongzhou is a strong city and a place where the kings are deeply cultivated. The people's family and private affairs are related to the kings' careers and lives. The kings only need to know the pros and cons, and there will be many people who join the army and work hard for the king. On the other hand, the Song army suffered one person as a result of the war, and it will not last long.
There are these three victories and three defeats, so it is concluded that Song will be defeated in this battle and the king will be defeated."
What this guy said made Luo Yongsheng feel a little excited.
However, what Zhou Zhen said this is about the overall situation, which is empty. The victory or defeat of a battle is composed of the victory or defeat of a small war, so it must be pragmatic.
Among these three points, except for the second point, Zhao Song has always been accustomed to the slutty operation, Luo Yongsheng may not have any advantages.
The righteousness and the hearts of the people will only benefit after the power is growing in the future. It is too early to talk about it now.
More than 100,000 imperial guards led their troops to quell the rebellion. Those big-headed soldiers did not care about their country or national justice. They just wanted to cut off Luo Yongsheng's head and promoted to the third level, and rewarded them with a reward of 10,000 yuan.
That's right, Lao Luo's head is valuable now.
Can change a marquis directly!
If you arrest him alive, this Hou will be hereditary!
Zhao Heng just wants to see Luo Yongsheng being cut into pieces with his own eyes.
The so-called "here is a brave man" under heavy rewards. It is too naive to talk about the righteous people with the current army to suppress the rebellion.
As for the third point, Luo Yongsheng was not sure about the series of actions he had done in Hongzhou before. How many people could be tied to his broken ship, but he was probably a drop in the bucket.
If this battle can be won, the people will naturally gather together, but if they cannot win.
Money is important? Life is important?
The people are not stupid.
"Tell me something practical. You said there is a way to break the Xingguo Army across the river. How to do it?"
Luo Yongsheng didn't want to argue about these three victories and three losses. He wanted to know more about the ancient advisers of this era.
"Yangtze!"
Zhou Zhen stood up and pointed to the river surface that was swaying thousands of miles away: "There is less than a month left, and it is the rainy season. The commander of the Xingguo Army opposite must know, so during this period, they will not force the Yangtze River to cross the Yangtze River, and will wait for the rainy season to pass.
During this period, the king could build dikes upstream and block the river. Once the Xingguo army boarded the boat and crossed the river, our army would dig dikes and release water. In this way, the 50,000 Xingguo army would be bait for fish and shrimps, and there would be no place to bury him."
Water floods and fire attacks, the tactics that our ancestors have tried and tested.
"What about the people under the flood?"
Upon hearing Luo Yongsheng's words, Zhou Zhen became anxious: "King, since ancient times, those who have done great things have been vain. When Guanyun Changshui flooded the seven armies, Lu Boyan burned the camps in fire. Who did these two people have ever cherished the people? Moreover, under the flood, the people of Jiujiang were displaced and had no rice to put into the pot. They would definitely follow the king's army. In this way, they could get tens of thousands of troops, killing two birds with one stone."
"Enough!"
With a shout of Zhou Zhen’s persuasion, Luo Yongsheng sighed: “Jiujiang, this is Jiujiang.”
God can do something like flooding Jiujiang, but Luo Yongsheng can't do it.
After all, he is not god, he doesn't have that cruel heart.
This is also why Luo Yongsheng said before that Jiujiang could not be defended. Without water attack, he would have no way to stop the Yangtze River and stop Xingguo army from crossing the river.
He, Luo Yongsheng's navy, has not yet been trained.
"If your trick is to use hundreds of thousands of people to bury him, your talent is nothing more than that."
Luo Yongsheng looked up at the opposite side of the river with his head raised, and scolded him mercilessly: "I am the one who is Yan Huang, and I cannot learn from the atrocities of the barbarians. People are like my sons and nephews, so how can I bear to harm me?"
"The king is benevolence and righteousness, and I admire him."
Zhou Zhen sighed: "Since that's the case, there is still a bad idea."
"Speak and listen."
"Since the lord is unwilling to take advantage of the time and place, he can only give up Jiujiang, but he needs to strengthen the walls and clear the fields. After the rainy season, the outside of Jiujiang City is muddy, and it is inconvenient to travel. Our army emptyed the food, and the Xingguo Army took over it was just an empty city.
They could only wait for the logistics to cross the river to deliver food. At that time, our army was ambushing by the river and kept the elite troops, and only burning grain ships did not have to fight. In a month, the Xingguo army crossing the river would have no food and retreat.
And this elite army cannot be numerous, but its combat power is also very large. Otherwise, the Xingguo Army would only have to leave thousands of troops to protect the river, so that the grain-burning army would return without success.”
"So, only the breaking camp can be used."
Luo Yongsheng turned around and looked at the generals and officials: "Who dares to take this job?"
If you go deep into the enemy's rear, without reinforcements, you will be hitting thousands or even tens of thousands of troops, which is a crisis.
"King, the last will be willing."
Zhou Bai was the first to ask for an order, but Luo Yongsheng refused: "You and I go to Nanchang, where is the main battlefield."
"Entertainment Father, let the child come."
This time, Cheng Wu asked for the appointment.
"You..." Luo Yongsheng walked closer, looked at Luo Chengwu with a firm look, and patted the latter's shoulder: "Good boy, can you know that you can only give you two hundred people as a father, do you still dare?"
"What's the point of not daring?"
Luo Chengwu smiled confidently and said, "I see the Song army as a rat who is greedy for life and fears death. Breaking the camp is the best army in the world. Not to mention that my adoptive father only allows me to burn food, even if he attacks 50,000 troops, he dares to take the lead in rushing the formation."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Luo Yongsheng laughed at the sky: "My son Chengwu has the power of Xiang Yu and Zhao Yun's courage. Good, this is your responsibility. If you win, I will give you a general to you for your father."
"Receive the order of thanking the king."
After explaining Luo Chengwu, Luo Yongsheng turned around and said, "That's it. Immediately empty the treasury of Jiujiang City and ordered the whole city to be told that the war is about to be about to kill the people. I am willing to go to Nanchang with our army to protect them."
After saying that, he held a whip and pointed at Nanchang, saying to everyone: "Everyone, go to Nanchang with me and fight with the so-called 80,000 pseudo-Song army."
It's just 10,000 to 80,000.
If you want to fight, then fight!
