Gao Wu Da Xia: The fox demon lady at the beginning

Chapter 45 The Desperate Governor
It will take time for reinforcements from other military towns to arrive.

It would take three or four days for the soldiers and horses from Xuanfu Town, which is also in Yunzhou, to arrive. By then, Jingkang City might have been breached.

Of course, it is more likely that the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town did not have the guts to lead the troops.

The soldiers and horses under his command are the capital of every general. Once his soldiers and horses are gone, he will be at the mercy of others.

After the defeat of the general at Zhongning Road in Datong Army Town, he fled back, but was soon beheaded by the governor of Yunzhou.

If he fled back with 5000 people, even the governor of Yunzhou would not dare to behead him easily, and more would just be demoted.

Only when you have soldiers can you live a good life and others will be afraid of you. This is the principle for military generals to survive in this troubled world.

The soldiers and horses from Xuanfu Town will most likely not come to the rescue, but the soldiers and horses from other border towns are too far away, and the day lily will be cold by the time they arrive.

But it is difficult to fight with the soldiers and horses of Datong Military Town alone.

The soldiers and horses on Zhongning Road had just been wiped out, and the generals from all walks of life were frightened and did not dare to go out of the city to come to the rescue.

Thanks to the weak defenders of Jingkang City, if they can hold on for another seven days, thank God.

Linchuan City, the capital of Yunzhou, is located in the Governor's Mansion.

"boom"

The precious vase was thrown heavily to the ground.

"General Gu Changqing of Xuanfu Town, why haven't you sent troops to rescue Jingkang City?"

Zeng Jiyou, the governor of Yunzhou, asked angrily.

"My lord, the commander-in-chief of Xuanfu Town asked your lord to wait for a few more days on the grounds of gathering troops." His aide whispered.

"How many more days to wait? I can afford to wait, but the people in Jingkang City can't afford to wait. This damn thing is obviously afraid of losing his troops and does not dare to go out to rescue.

Xuanfu Town is hopeless. What is the latest news about Shen Yangzhong, the commander-in-chief of Datong Town? "

"Sir, Datong Town Commander Shen Yangzhong replied that Datong Town's soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses and are no longer able to fight against the Wu clan's soldiers and horses."

"They are all trash. The general soldiers of these border towns are all trash. They are all as timid as mice and only know how to protect their own soldiers and horses."

In the room, there were several more sounds of breaking vases and teacups.

The governor was the feudal official of Daxia. He was in charge of the military and civil affairs of the entire state and had extremely high power.

Below him is the governor, the second-in-command in the state.

Next, in terms of the army, it is the general soldier of each military town. Each military town has about 2 people.

At the peak of Daxia, there were 5 to [-] people in the nine major towns. With the weakening of national power and constant defeats, the number of people in each military town dropped sharply to more than [-] people, which was directly reduced by half.

This is still the elite military town of Daxia defending the frontier. The military towns inside Daxia are even more broken.

2 people were reported, but the actual number may be less than 1. The monthly salary paid by the imperial court has been embezzled by the officials and gentlemen of the military town.

A few years ago, during the battle of Dalinghe, Daxia gambled on the fortunes of the country and assembled more than 30 elite troops from more than a dozen military towns, and 10,000+ troops from Dagan Kingdom of the Wu tribe, to fight to the death at Dalinghe outside the pass.

At that time, Daxia's senior officials wanted to accomplish all their efforts in one battle, to wipe out all the troops of the Daqian Kingdom and put an end to the threat in the northeast.

The Wu tribe has a population of just over one million and 10,000+ soldiers and horses. Their lord also bet on the entire army to bet on this battle of national fortune.

The result was a disastrous defeat in Daxia. The 30 most elite troops were defeated by the Wu clan, and not even a fifth of them escaped back to the pass.

Now Daxia can only be passive and on the defensive, unable to launch another major decisive battle.

Moreover, the great enemies of Daxia are not only the witch tribes in the northeast, but also the barbarians in the north, and the demon tribes in the south are also ready to attack.

Inside the dynasty, there were also rebels who rose up and had grown to 10,000+ people. It can be said that they were besieged on all sides and entered the dark and turbulent end of the dynasty.

"The governor of Yunzhou is really a hot job. It seems that I, Zeng Jiyou, will inevitably be dismissed." Zeng Jiyou, the governor of Yunzhou, laughed at himself helplessly.The previous governor of Yunzhou was dismissed from office because Suiyuan City was attacked by Wu tribe Tatars and the city was massacred.

From the current point of view, Jingkang City is not far away from being breached.

He had already seen his future, being escorted back to Beijing, thrown into a dungeon, and even beheaded in public.

"The current His Majesty is not a merciful Lord. Several governors of various states have been killed."

The more Zeng Jiyou thought about it, the more he worried about his future.

The previous governor of Yunzhou was saved due to his relationship with Mo Ni, the chief minister of the DPRK, but he is still imprisoned in the dungeon.

No one can keep Zeng Jiyou, so he can only ask for blessings.

"Who can solve the crisis in Jingkang City?" Zeng Jiyou thought hard.

Inside the Fort of Safety, Liu Tianfei came back covered in blood.

The directors and captains of the entire Ping'an Fort gathered together.

"Old Liu, what did you do?" the fat man asked.

"On the way back, we had a fight with the Tatar sentries, and several brothers died. Of course, the Tatars also had a hard time, and we killed several of them."

"Master Han is here."

Everyone stood up instantly.

Han Chufan walked in wearing an exquisite Feiyu suit.

This is the meeting hall specially built by Han Chufan. Only the core figures in the military fort can come to discuss matters.

Han Chufan gave this meeting hall a prestigious name, "Tiger's Den".

Zhang Yuan joined the core layer of Ping An Bao for the first time and was extremely excited.

Liu San was also very excited. He used to be just a blacksmith, but he didn't expect that one day, he would be valued so much.

Now when the new troops and civilians in the fort see him, they will respectfully call him Director Liu, which makes him enjoy it very much.

It was also the first time for Liu San to join the core meeting of Ping An Fort.

Han Chufan glanced at everyone and waved his hands, "Everyone, please sit down. Don't be so formal."

The conference table was round, and everyone sat down around Han Chufan one by one.

Han Chufan stopped being verbose and went straight to the point.

"Tianfei, please report the situation of the Tatars first."

"It's your lord. I led a team of elite cavalry to go deep into the vicinity of Jingkang City and found out the most authentic news. This time the Tatars came with two Jia La Zhang Jing."

Everyone was confused after hearing this. They used to be ordinary military households and did not understand the structure of the Wu Clan Tatar army very well.

"The military system of the Wu Clan Tatars is actually very simple. 300 people are one oxulu, five oxen are one jiala, and five oxula are one solid mountain, and the solid mountain is the flag.

Initially, the Wu Tatars only had eight banners, but now they have developed to sixteen banners.

Deputy Director Liu just said that there are two Jia La Zhang Jing, and the number of people is actually easy to calculate. Each Jia La Zhang Jing has five Niu Lu, [-] soldiers and horses, two equals [-] soldiers. horse. "

Leshibo explained.

"Mr. Le is very knowledgeable and knows everything about the Wu Clan and the Tatars." Liu Tianfei said with admiration.
