Governor please stay

Chapter 412 Code: Field Clearance Operation (1)

Time back to nine days ago.

Although the battle around Taicheng was a vicious fight between Xiao Gang and Xiao Yi, those who paid close attention to the situation included but were not limited to Xiao Lun who was stationed at Jingkou, not far from Jiankang, and who was an important node in breaking Gangdu. Chen Baxian who hides his whereabouts on Baoyan.

There is also Liu Yishou, who was in Shouyang but did not say anything.

When he learned that Xiao Yi mobilized people from almost all places in Jiankang City except Taicheng to pile up the mountain, everyone who had not entered the game secretly observed the battle situation realized that the time for the decisive battle was coming.

In the study room of the government office in Jingkou City, Xiao Lun, who was the first to learn about the specific situation in Jiankang City, was so excited that he couldn't control himself!
"Deji (Wei Zaibiao), this king... this king is really itchy! Can we send troops now?"

Xiao Lun has always been impatient, but fortunately he still trusts Wei Zai more, and the previous defeat also made him understand a lot of truths.For example, if he is going to fight with real swords and guns, his team is definitely not the opponent of Xiao Gang and Xiao Yi.

"Your Highness, the last general has already organized his troops and can send troops at any time. But..."

With a smile on his face, Wei Zai paused and continued: "Jingkou leads to Jiankang by land. The cavalry arrives at dawn and at night, and the infantry can arrive before it gets dark today. The road is very wide and flat, and it is easy to march. Liang Guo should find There is no better way to go than this one."

The implication is: you can wait a little longer.At least wait until the two sides fight.

Because Jingkou is an important military town, it defended Jiankang, and it was maintained every year during the Sun Wu period before the Southern Dynasties.The road from Jiankang to Jingkou is the official road among the official roads, and no matter how stupid the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was, he would not stop repairing it.

In fact, among the important escape routes of the emperors in the Southern Dynasties, the most convenient one was to leave Jiankang to Jingkou, and then take a sea boat from Jingkou to sea.

Wei Zai's words were on point. Looking at the distance alone, some places in Pogangdu might be closer to the straight line of Jiankang, but if they found out the news at the same time, it must be Xiao Lun's men who were first. arrival.

"Are you sure about this battle?"

Xiao Lun asked in a deep voice, with a nervous expression on his face.

"Your Highness, the fight for the throne is extremely dangerous. Any accident may lead to failure. How can we talk about certainty?"

Wei Zai said with a wry smile.

When ships go out to sea, people are often struck by lightning.

Now it's a rebellion, so there's no way to talk about surety, but it's just doing your best to know the destiny.Give it a go, there is still a chance.If you give up, I'm afraid, no, it should be said that you will die a bad life.

Since ancient times, there has been a road in Huashan, and there has been no retreat.

"Then wait a little longer?"

Xiao Lun asked with some uncertainty.

"We have to wait, but His Highness can distribute all the floating wealth to the soldiers. If you lose next, it is useless to ask for these things."

Wei Zai suggested patiently.

Xiao Lun nodded slightly. Guangling (Yangzhou), Hailing and other places cannot be guarded.Wei Zai is quite right, money is something outside the body.

"Why don't we take the waterway? Isn't it faster to go to Pogangdu from Jingkou?"

Xiao Lun asked a little puzzled.

Wei Zai shook his head and said: "If we go through Gangdu, anyone who wants to build a dam on the river can stop us. This ditch was dug by hand, and when we cross the Baoyan, we need to pull the boat. There are too many variables."

Since it is sending troops, there are many unexpected situations that must be taken into consideration.After careful consideration, Wei Zai decided to go overland from Jingkou.Fortunately, he was so decisive, otherwise, Xiao Lun would have to play a "preliminary match" with Chen Ba in Baoyan.

"Then wait a few more days." Xiao Lun sighed helplessly.For him who is impatient, the current situation is really heartburning.

……

Pogangdu, from Xiaoqi in the east of Jurong to the west of Danyang, the extreme difference in water level is more than ten meters!The area where Baoyan is located is the highest point.This is somewhat similar to Cao Cao's Xiufangtou in the past. As long as the boat climbs high, there are so-called "slides" that can be used.

Of course, pure manpower is needed to climb the boat, and many trackers are needed to pull the fibers.Naturally, there is no problem of finding people in the densely populated Jiankang area, but similar artificial canals cannot be dug in other places in Liang State.

Chen Baxian stationed troops in Baoyan, but did not disturb Xiao Gang and Xiao Yi who were fighting in full swing.Since Chen Baxian became prosperous, his elder brother Chen Daotan also followed him from Wu Xing's hometown.

In the team, Chen Baxian has a lot of folks and acquaintances, and it can be said that it is the most cohesive team under Xiao Ying's command.

"Xingguo, Xiao Yi has already ordered people to pile up a mountain of earth outside Taicheng, what should we do?"

The middle-aged man who spoke was Chen Daotan, the elder brother of Chen Baxian, who also practiced martial arts since childhood, and was skilled in bow and horse.What is missing is the opportunity to lead troops and experience in battle.

"Wolves and tigers are fighting fiercely. If a hunter wants to make a move, he must wait until both sides are exhausted. Now Xiao Yi still has a lot of energy to spare, and there are also many elite soldiers in Taicheng. If we make a move now, the emperor may not be grateful, maybe he will." Suspicious of His Highness (Xiao Ying).

It's better to wait and see what happens, and it's not too late to make a move when the two fight with each other and suffer heavy casualties. "

Chen Baxian's words can be explained in simple and easy-to-understand language: Xiao Yi is now strong and strong, and now they are just giving them away.Only when Xiao Yi breaks through Taicheng and the whole army presses up, will he be able to win by stabbing in the back.

"Your Highness has urged you three times a day, and I can't hold back anymore, alas, it's just going to wait any longer..." Chen Daotan sighed.Xiao Ying's envoy came once a day, and it was obvious that the feudal lord could no longer sit still.

Compared with Xiao Lun, Xiao Yi, etc., Xiao Ying does not have such great ambitions, but those vassal kings who "seem impossible" to inherit the throne actually have their own little calculations in their hearts.

"It's better not to send troops than to burn yourself with fire. Your Highness may not understand, but we must understand."

Chen Baxian said firmly.

Chen Daotan nodded slightly, his younger brother was first-class in literary and martial arts, and he was the most assertive on weekdays.

"So, let's talk about it later."

Chen Daotan sighed softly, the current situation is like the sweltering heat before the summer rainstorm, which makes people feel oppressed and breathless.

……

Snapped!
The door of the study was pushed open, and Wang Wei, out of breath, ran to Liu Yishou's table case.

"It's... it's started! Xiao Yi ordered people to pile up soil outside the city wall, and my lord knows everything like a god."

Wang Wei was very curious why Liu Yishou knew in advance that Xiao Yi would use this method to attack Taicheng. He didn't believe it before, but he didn't expect Liu Yishou's words to become a prophecy.

"With Yang Kan here, Xiao Yi's clever methods are useless, so he can only use stupid methods. After thinking about it, what is a more reliable means of attacking the city than piles of earth?"

Liu Yishou smiled casually, as if all this was within his expectation.

"Okay, let's not gossip, call all the generals and scribes who are still in Shouyang for a meeting. We are ready to leave!"

"Okay! It's really anxious to wait! This subordinate is going to call someone now."

Wang Wei said excitedly.

"No need, let Bowu (Mao Xibiao) go."

Liu Yishou turned his head to look at Mao Xi and said.

Soon, the study room was full of people, it looked like a vegetable market.

Liu Yishou didn't speak, and no one dared to speak, but everyone saw the white-painted wooden board hanging on the wall, with the words "clear the venue" written in charcoal.

"Everyone, Xiao Yi and Xiao Gang, are about to hit the pig's brain. These two words clearly describe what we have to do."

Liu Yishou held a slender wooden stick in his hand, tapped the two big characters on the white wooden board and continued: "What we have to do is to clear the place. No matter whose troops are around Jiankang, Get the hell out of here!

However, you just need to pay attention to the scale, just defeat them and drive them out of the range of [-] miles outside Jiankang City. You don't need to really chase them, let alone try to destroy them, understand? "

At the end, Liu Yishou tapped the whiteboard with a wooden stick and said.

I understand... what a ghost!

"My lord, first you said to fight, and then you said not to fight, do you want to fight or not?"

Peng Le touched his head and asked.

You can't talk while riding a horse, can you shut up?

Yu Jin's temples bulged, and he wished he could hang Peng Le up and beat him up.

"My lord, do you want to say that we should keep Xiao Yi, Xiao Xu and others, and not allow Xiao Huan to become emperor too easily, so in the next battle, we can't beat all these vassal kings to death with a stick."

Yu Jin stood up and said "Praise".

"Yes, that's it."

Liu Yishou clapped his hands and laughed.He turned his head and said to Mao Xi: "Go to Hefei and tell Wei An and the others to cooperate with Yang Zhong to sweep away all hostile ships on the Yangtze River! By the way, no matter what, take down Wuhu and Caishi first.

After achieving the goal, Yang Zhong's troops stationed troops in the quarry to ensure the passage across the river.

After you spread the news, let's go with Webster's people, and see you in Jiankang.I will send other people to pass on the news from Yang Zhong. "

Hearing Liu Yishou speak so firmly, Mao Xi was also surprised.He also did not expect that Liu Yishou had such great confidence in taking over Jiankang.

"Subordinates know!"

Mao Xi folded his sleeves and saluted.

"By the way, King Luo Diao will go with you, and we will take care of each other."

After the two went out, Liu Yishou slapped the table violently, and everyone present was startled.

"Peng Le obeys!"

Liu Yishou had already taken out a command arrow from the bamboo tube.

"The end is here!"

Peng Le said excitedly.

Going back to Jiankang this time, there are a lot of good things in Huahua World, from the palace, from the aristocratic family, from the treasury, just grab it... If you take a little, your pockets will be bulging.

"Your department is the vanguard, go to Liyang first, join forces with Xiao Fan and others. Let them take the lead, attack the city in the name of the prince's descendant Xiao Huan, and recruit and accept the rebels.

Once Qin County (Nanjing Liuhe District) is captured, they will set up camp here and divide their troops to plunder the surrounding area!But only activities in Jiangbei, not crossing the river! "

ha?Not going to Jiankang?

Peng Le was dumbfounded, he was still counting on going to Jiankang to earn enough!
"All the spoils of this battle must be handed in and distributed uniformly. You don't have to worry about your share."

Liu Yishou added something.Only then did Peng Le feel relieved.

"She Dichang and Cui Xiaofen are with you all the way."

"The general will know."

Peng Le said reluctantly.Although I'm a little unhappy, but fortunately, I don't have to gnaw hard bones. It's okay anyway.

Seeing that he still didn't leave, Liu Yishou looked at Peng Le and said, "Your department needs to leave early, and you have to leave now. As for the follow-up matters, I will send someone to contact you."

"Subordinates take orders."

Peng Le took the command arrow and left with an unhappy expression.

Everyone looked at his back meaningfully, as if they had thought of something and couldn't say it out loud.

"Mr. Jia, is the portable ration ready?"

Liu Yishou suddenly asked a question.

Jia Sixie smiled and said: "It has been prepared long ago, the lord can use it whenever he wants."

Hearing this, Liu Yishou was determined.If there is no trouble with the military rations, then the rest will be simple.

"This time, I want to take the army to Jiankang at a critical moment. Unfortunately, Shouyang is too far away from Jiankang, and we cannot predict what will happen on the front line.

Therefore, it is necessary to lead troops to set off in advance.If Peng Le and others attract the attention of Xiao Yi's army in Jiangbei, then the other party will think that we are just taking advantage of the fire in Jiangbei to loot.

No matter how they deal with it, if Peng Le can't pass the river, then Xiao Yi should be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

We will arrive at the quarry at that time, and we can scout the situation of the earth and hills around Taicheng every day.When the height of the earth mountain is almost equal to that of Taicheng, you can call in troops to go out.Go to Tunza near the city of Danyang County.

Of course, these are things after the expedition.Judging by the speed of the pile of dirt, I reckon it will take about ten days, and the main force of the army can wait a little longer.

Go back and prepare first, and explain it to your family.If this trip fails, the rest of the road will be difficult for us, so we must cheer up. "

Although this time it was a sure thing, but Liu Yishou never did things like flying dragons riding on faces, and his tone was still very cautious.

Liu Yishou also told everyone some precautions for marching, especially emphasizing that soldiers are precious and fast, and that looting for any reason is not allowed.After entering Jiankang, smashing and looting are not allowed, and they must look like "teachers of civilization" and "mighty teachers".

"In this way, the soldiers may not be able to withstand setbacks in fighting."

Yu Jin said in a low voice.

Where there are casualties, there is born fear.Without the desire for money and benefits, it is difficult to overcome this fear.

"Don't worry, do you want to lose your status to grab it, or do you want others to work tirelessly to send food and money willingly?"

Liu Yishou asked back.

Yu Jin stopped talking immediately, and this question and answer basically solved the most difficult difficulty in the hearts of the generals.

"Don't worry, I can bring you into Shouyang. I didn't just grow up drinking water. I know all your worries. As long as you trust me, I can give you a satisfactory answer."

Liu Yishou took all the money, implying that he would be able to pocket a lot if he didn't rob this time.

Everyone was overjoyed, no one generated electricity for love.If the "righteous soldiers" are really sent out, then there is really no need to fight this battle, and it is estimated that it will end soon before it starts.

After everyone left, Wang Wei stayed alone.

He lowered his voice and asked: "My lord, after occupying Jiankang, my lord will also be the one who speaks in Liang Guoming's face. Now the title of this son-in-law really degrades the status of the lord. Everyone in the world is like this. If you are humble, they will respect you." Think you are weak, want to step on it.

Does the lord think about what kind of title he will give himself after becoming the master of Jiankang?Like Er Zhurong's Tianzhu General? "

Hearing this, Liu Yishou was thoughtful, pondered for a moment and said: "How about this, the universe is called in all directions, and the universe is called Zhou throughout the ages, and the general is a vacant position, so he is called the general of the universe. How about this title?"

"Does the general have the call of the universe?"

Wang Wei exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

"Haha, I'm just talking casually, don't take it seriously."

Liu Yishou smiled and waved his hands, and said indifferently.

"People in the world are dull and can't understand the great ambition of the lord, so let's change to... a slightly smaller title." Wang Wei said with a strange expression.
