Lord of the House

"Sir, you can't give up easily. Let the last general lead someone to fight, and you can't take Fuyang back. I'd like to bring the head to see your lord!" One member wrapped his left arm with a splint and wrapped the qiu-bearded general who was hanging around his neck with tears and tears, and knelt down. In front of Dong Yuan, Ku Jian wanted to continue the battle in Fuyang. Behind him, more than a dozen generals and generals knelt down and begged for battle.

These generals were more or less wounded, and even a few of them had broken arms and stumps.

At this point in the Fuyang War, the newly recruited soldiers continued to flee under the brutal suppression, but the generals around Dong Yuan became more and more courageous, and many of their troops were completely disabled and refused to withdraw Walk.

Dong Yuan was one of the most powerful figures in Jiangdong, who was the right servant of the Jiangning Ministry of War and was also the envoy of the Northern Zhejiang system. At this time, he was wearing a purple-robed python robe outside his armor, sitting in front of Nanmu Gongan, sinking like water, his eyes under his sword eyebrows were dark and deep, like a deep pool of cold springs, facing the impassioned battle of the generals, he just kept silent.

Chen Mingzhe looked at it in dismay.

It was too late for Dong Yuan to lead his troops to capture Shangyanwu. When the channel to support Fuyang was opened, more than half of the defenders of Fuyang suffered casualties, and only the North Gate was not lost.

In the past five or six days, Dong Yuan has invested no less than 20,000 troops in the small Beicheng area of ​​Fuyang. Only the generals above Zhaowu Commander and above have died in the battle, which still cannot increase the control area by one foot and one inch.

She Feixiong is also a famous general in the world. He is not an idiot. He obviously intends to use the advantageous terrain and military strength to use Fuyang City as a massacre ground for the killing of Si Shengli, the envoy of the Northern Zhejiang system.

At this time, Dong Yuan still had 15,000 troops and horses to deploy in Shangyanwu and the nearby defense villages, but if these troops and horses were smashed, not to mention the recapture of Fuyang, even the troops defending Hangcheng and Jiaxing would be seriously insufficient. And the longer the time drags on, the more elite soldiers She Feixiong will transfer from the western front, and the more unfavorable the situation in northern Zhejiang will be.

Chen Mingzhe believed that if Lin Su led the Huaidong Army over, the Fuyang battle would not have a higher result than the current one.

In terms of his ability to manage the army and lead troops to fight, Dong Yuan may not be slightly worse than Lin Fu; Lin Fu was elected in the eight-year township examination of Chongguan, Dong Yuan was already the prefect of Weiyang at that time, and even Lin Fu was in Dong. In the original rule, he was robbed and killed by pirates.

In the past five years, Dong Yuan has been promoted from the prefect of Weiyang to the right servant of the Jiangning Military Department and the envoy of the northern Zhejiang system. The rise is not slow, but compared to the miracle created by Lin Tie in Huaidong, it is far behind. - Dong Yuan Where is the difference in the poor forest binding? Chen Mingzhe thought about this question in his heart.

"I have made up my mind," Dong Yuan said slowly, his voice solemn and solemn, "Since I already have the idea of ​​retreating, if I fight again, the military's morale will also be shaken. Besides, it's not that we won't regain Fuyang in the future. When I was in Dongmin, the commander-in-chief told me that the division of tigers and wolves should not only be good at winning battles, but also be good at defeating battles—I can afford to lose, but you can’t afford to lose?”

All the generals in the hall were savage warriors, but Dong Yuan's remarks brought tears to the eyes of many of them.

At this time, Dong Yuan looked at Chen Enze, the commander who came to contact the Huaidong Army, and said: "In the battle of Fuyang, the Zhejiang and Fujian troops have done their best. Next, it depends on your family's system and strategizing. It's..." This sentence was full of unspeakable bitterness and ridicule.

"Enze will go back immediately to tell my lord!" Chen Enze said with his fists folded.

Dong Yuan waved his hand, and then discussed the retreat with the generals, to be prepared to take the back road for She Feixiong.

************

She Feixiong was also relieved when the Zhejiang North Army withdrew from the Fuyang battlefield.

He climbed to the north gate of Fuyang City. Under the stars and moon, the thick layer of flesh and blood on the city head had condensed into purple-black, and the blood was stronger than any battlefield he had experienced before, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere. , Those county residents who were driven to clean up the battlefield looked numb and did not have the heart to resist.

Outside the north city, the troops behind the northern Zhejiang Army were withdrawing in an orderly manner. She Feixiong also gave up the idea of ​​sending troops to pursue them, and only waited for Dong Yuan to withdraw from Shangyanwu, and then sent troops to occupy it, even if Dong Yuan still sent troops to the east. Garrisoned, he can also get through the passage to the north and Linshui.

She Feixiong put into the attack on Fuyang's elites. No matter in terms of the quality of the soldiers or the armament, they were much better than those of the Northern Zhejiang Army, but he was always worried that the Huaidong Army would take a back path from the east, and the generals and soldiers would not be as firm as the Northern Zhejiang Army. .

This battle was not easy for the Zhejiang and Fujian troops.

In the **** battle that lasted for several days, nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses of the Northern Zhejiang Army were crippled. After the battle, Dong Yuan's troops would not exceed 20,000, but the casualties of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army also exceeded 10,000, and many more. Eight Fujian elites who survived the ten-year East Fujian war.

It is rare for such a small battlefield to fill so many lives in such a short period of time.

As long as it is in the expansion period, no matter how heavy the casualties, the troops will quickly make up for it, but the sea route from Mingzhou Prefecture and East Fujian will be completely cut off. Only from Xianxia Mountain to connect with North Fujian, how many soldiers can be maintained west of Kuaiji ready? The western line needs to open up more space to make up for the loss of the Mingzhou capital.

"The governor, it will be too late if we don't send troops to rescue Shengzhou!" Shi Tianchang, the governor of the governor's office in eastern Zhejiang, staggered up to the tower, and asked She Feixiong to send troops to rescue Shengzhou with a crying voice!

During the war between Zhejiang and Zhejiang, Tian Chang surrendered, and the soldiers of the two Zhejiang counties were trapped in a great rout. The Tian clan in Shengzhou also chose to entrust their clan to the extravagant family and benefited a lot. Not only did they take the opportunity to invade the fields in Shengzhou, Tian Chang went out to know Mingzhou, and the Tian family also took advantage of the situation to expand to other counties and rose to become the leading wealthy family in Mingzhou.

It is said that in 30 years Hedong and 30 years Hexi, before Tianshi's scenery was three years old, Mingzhou Prefecture was attacked by the Huaidong Army and most of it fell. Who would want to face such a result?

After Cixi, Shangyu, Yuyao and other counties fell one after another, the Cao'e River was again controlled by the Huaidong Water Camp warships. Although Mingzhou City had not yet fallen, it was surrounded by the Huaidong Army's control area, and it was impossible to send troops across the Cao'e River to pick it up in a hurry. Aid Mingzhou City.

However, Shengzhou, located in the southwest corner of Mingzhou Prefecture, has not fallen, and is still waiting for help. The second son, She Feihu, is leading his troops from southern Zhejiang to help, approaching the periphery of Shengzhou, and the passage from Kuaiji and Zhuji to Shengzhou is still in their hands. There is still enough time to approach the rescue Shengzhou directly from the periphery.

If Shengzhou falls, the Tian clan will die, except for a few Tian clan's children who served in the army with Tian Chang.

Not only Huaidong, but also Jiangning, few people would be willing to let go of the opportunity to clean up the Tian family.

Although they could support Shengzhou from Zhuji, after the Huaidong Army captured Shangyu, it was more convenient to enter Shengzhou from Shangyu through the Shanxi River, the main stream of the Cao'e River.

When the situation develops to this stage, every step is dangerous, and if one loses one step, it may be doomed.

Facing Tian Chang's plea, She Feixiong would not be completely indifferent, even if he was just guarding Kuaiji in the end, he would have to add more troops to the east, he said: "In the current situation, we can only block the money east of Xiaoshan first. I will send Yu Wenshan to lead 10,000 elite reinforcements to Kuaiji, and you will also go to Kuaiji to assist Su Tingzhan. After the second child comes over, if he wants, the east line will be handed over to him. In Jinan, most of the time It will be arranged like this..."

As the commander-in-chief of Zhejiang and Fujian in charge of the entire northern battle situation, She Feixiong must stand in the entire battle situation and consider abandoning Mingzhou, how to dispatch troops to regain the disadvantage of the Zhejiang and Fujian army.

What they faced on the northern front was not only the Huaidong Army, the Haiyu Army came up, and Meng Yishan led the old Ning navy; Yue Lengqiu also transferred more than 10,000 troops of the Changhuai Army to the Ningguo front line, wanting to retake Dusong close.

The Huaidong Army attacked Mingzhou on the morning of the 24th, but they dragged Dong Yuan's Northern Zhejiang Army for three days in Fuyang, and the opportunity was lost - the Huaidong Army was likely to mobilize another 20,000 to 30,000 people. When the soldiers and horses crossed the sea and entered Mingzhou Mansion, it was obviously irrational for She Feixiong to rush his troops into Mingzhou Mansion for a battle.

In the battle of Fuyang, the casualties exceeded 10,000. She Feixiong had to let Tian Chang and Yu Wenshan lead 10,000 elites into Kuaiji for support. It was already his limit. Of course, Feihu can transfer 5,000 elites from southern Zhejiang. Although it is impossible to drive the Huaidong Army away from eastern Zhejiang, it is still reluctant to stabilize the situation in eastern Zhejiang.

In any case, Shengzhou cannot easily give up - from Shengzhou to the north along the Yanxi River and Cao'e River, it can threaten Shangyu, and there is a valley road to the northeast that leads directly to Yinxian County, the hinterland of Mingzhou Prefecture, and it can also threaten Ninghai and Xiangshan in the east. In other places, as long as Shengzhou can be defended, Huaidong is far from taking over Mingzhou.

But She Feixiong couldn't bet all the chips in Shengzhou. They could see the key point of Shengzhou, and Huaidong couldn't see it for no reason.

Just as they used Fuyang to strangle the northern Zhejiang army, didn't the Huaidong army have the intention to encircle the point for reinforcements and use Shengzhou to strangle the reinforcements from southern Zhejiang and Kuaiji?

Thinking of this, She Feixiong felt a heavy heart, but he lowered his tone so that only Tian Chang could hear him, and said, "You are also aware of the current situation, if Tian can break through from Shengzhou, it is better to break through. Putting all hope in rescue..."

When Tian Chang heard this, his heart went cold.

************

Before Huaidong attacked eastern Zhejiang, Shengzhou was on the inner line of eastern Zhejiang, and the defenders were only over 500 soldiers.

It is precisely because Shengzhou is located on the inner line of eastern Zhejiang that Zhou Tong led the main force of the Chongcheng Infantry Camp to cross the Yueling Mountain at the southern foot of the Siming Mountain and enter the territory of Shengzhou. It was already the afternoon of the 25th, and the suddenness of the attack was lost. The Shengzhou defenders had almost two days. Adjusted the deployment of defensive cities.

Tian's clan power in Shengzhou is particularly deep-rooted. In two days, nearly 2,000 clan soldiers have been mobilized to participate in the defense of the city.

Tian Chang played a pivotal role in the collapse of the two Zhe County soldiers. After the Tian family returned to the extravagant family, it was also the wealthy family that benefited the most in eastern Zhejiang. Those old ministers and generals of the two Zhejiang commanderies, as well as Jiangning and the imperial court, could not be easily released after the war. Guo Tian - Tian Shi also knows this very well.

In the case that Shengzhou can provide assistance to southern Zhejiang in the south, and Zhuji and Kuaiji in the west, Tian will not give up resistance easily. Shengzhou launched an offensive, and the siege continued for a day and a night. In the absence of large-scale siege equipment, the casualties were heavy, and Shengzhou was not shaken.

When She Feihu and his troops approached Shengzhou from the south, Zhou Tong had to change the siege to a besieged city. He seized villages and built simple defenses at the southwest of Shengzhou city, at the mouth of the Yanxi River, the main stream of Chengtan River and Cao'e River. Besieging the city and preparing for reinforcements, and at the same time waiting for the follow-up troops to be transferred from Shangyu...

She Feihu's southern Zhejiang reinforcement scouts have entered the southern foothills of Tiantai Mountain, but Zhou Tong is outside the city of Shengzhou and has cleared the passage to Shangyu north. Not only can the wounded be sent down through the Shanxi River channel, the main stream of the Cao'e River, but supplies, supplies and reinforcements can also be transported in from Shangyu through the Shanxi River channel.

Sun Zhuang could not sleep soundly at night in the military tent set up with varnished cloth.

The wound on his body was cold, painful and numb, and he did not know what medicine the military medical battalion applied to him. Due to his injury, he should have been withdrawn for recuperation, but as long as the person didn't lie down and couldn't get up, Sun Zhuang was unwilling to go down.

The tent curtain was lifted from the outside, and the light from the campfire came in. Sun Zhuang leaned over and saw Chen Zhe's black face poking in, and asked, "You are running over here at this time? What about tomorrow's battle? Shit, what kind of advice did you officials discuss?"

"How about Master Rod scolding me?" Chen Zhui sat down at the curtain of the military tent, smiled and said, "You accumulate military merit, and soon I will be able to follow you again!"

"Fart," Sun Zhuang spat rudely, and said, "I can't be a general in Huaidong. Since Donghaihu spared my life, if I die in battle, I will repay his love! You! Do your dream of being a prince and a general, don't get involved with me!"

"She Feihu may lead his troops from the south of Tiantai Mountain to Dongyang to join the troops and horses transferred from Zhuji by the She family. I'm afraid there will be no battle tomorrow." Chen Zhu turned the topic to the war, and looked at the campfire outside , said, "The real fight is likely to be a ruthless fight. In Fuyang, where She Feixiong and Dong Yuan slapped the palm of their hand, almost 20,000 lives have been filled in, and they don't know when they can stop. ." But he didn't know that Fuyang's **** battle had temporarily stopped.

"Donghaihu is Donghaihu after all, I never saw him suffer," Sun Zhuang folded his arms and rested his head on the back of his head, looking at the pitch-black top of the military tent. , said, "There is always going to be a fierce battle here, and this time, the She family will be able to win back the mind of Mingzhou Prefecture! The key is that Shangyu has to guard against Kuaiji's troops and horses. How many troops can be invested here?"

Although the Huaidong Army was elite, it had too little combat power on land. The Changshan Battalion and the Chongcheng Infantry Battalion, plus the Hailing Mansion's army, which were only used as a reserve force, were only a little over 20,000.

20,000 elites were more than enough to attack and defend one city and one place, but as the war progressed to the present, it was necessary to defend several cities, attack several cities, surround and divide several cities at the same time, and the Huaidong Army's combat power on land was stretched.

The Chongcheng Infantry Battalion was responsible for the fortifications in the early stage of the fortification of the fortress, and the early stage of the attack on Shengzhou City was not a small loss. After the wounded were transported out, there were less than 4,000 soldiers left here. It is difficult for these troops to surround Shengzhou City, let alone besiege the city to help.

The Changshan Battalion led by Ao Canghai was the most powerful. Before the war, there were 20 battalions and more than 12,000 soldiers. However, in the past three or four days, the three cities of Cixi, Yuyao, Shangyu and the seven or eight battalions had been destroyed. Building a defensive village, several battles were overcome, and all were victorious, but the accumulated casualties were also nearly 2,000.

In the early stage, the Hailing House Army mainly defended the troops and horses of the She family on Changguo Island at Laotangshan Port.

It is also fortunate that the **** battle of Fuyang allowed Dong Yuan's northern Zhejiang army to stand in front. Otherwise, even if the Huaidong army could withstand more than 10,000 casualties, it would lose the ability to continue fighting in a short period of time.

At this time, in addition to Shengzhou, there were still nearly 2,000 remnants of luxury families in Mingzhou Fucheng who did not surrender, and in Changguo and Daishan Islands, nearly 4,000 remnants of luxury families refused to surrender - Changguo Islands can certainly take water camps The warships were first isolated from the outside, but the troops surrounding Mingzhou Prefecture could not be less - at this time, it was hard to say how many reinforcements could be dispatched from Mingzhou Prefecture to Shengzhou.

Chen Zhuang didn't care about the strategic issue of military potential either. When he asked Sun Zhuang, he felt that the situation was not as optimistic as he imagined. The law, the less play, the less play.”

At this moment, a small school came to look for Chen Zhe: "Chen Xiaowei, why are you hiding here? Zhou Shuai wants you to come over!"

"What's the matter?" Chen Zhi asked.

Xiao Xiao glanced at Sun Zhuang, hesitantly, and didn't say a word.

Chen Zhui was not happy anymore, he stretched out his foot to kick, and scolded, "Smack, this is my eldest brother, is there anything I can't say?"

"Chen Zui, how can the rules that you abide by can be broken? How can you be a battalion general?" A voice came out of the shadows, and suddenly reprimanded Chen Zui.

Hearing Zhang Gou's voice, Chen Zhuo looked around and asked in astonishment, "What a big thing I said, it turns out that you were looking for me! Aren't you in Huaisi?"

"I told you to go to the big tent, get up quickly," Zhang Gou said, and raised his hand to lift the curtain door, looking at Sun Zhuang who was lying inside, and said, "Does the injury of the pole do not matter?"

Sun Zhuang sat up with his body hunched over, and he took a deep breath from the wound, but said in his mouth, "It's a big injury, it's a big deal. I heard that the imperial court is playing Zhao'an again in Huaisi. Miss was not fooled, right?"

"Liu Tingzhou is the envoy, and Chen Zhu's cheap husband, Li Wei, is the deputy envoy," Zhang Gou said. "I can't tell you what happened."

"..." Sun Zhuang glared at Zhang Gou and turned his back, unwilling to pay any attention to him.

Zhang Gou smiled. He knew that Sun Zhuang had this temper. He squatted down and said, "As a rule, only the military attache above the battalion general can know. Chen Zhuang has a big mouth, so I can't tell him. It leaked out of his mouth, but it hurt him..."

"You have the face to shame me, don't you?" Sun Zhuang rolled over and sat up~www.wuxiamtl.com~ said angrily, "I need Chen Zhui to tip me off? You also think about your background, I How about you? An Shuai and the eldest lady didn't owe you anything back then."

"Since I joined the Huaidong Army, I have to abide by the rules of the Huaidong Army." Zhang Gou said with a stern face.

"Hey, you are in command of the army, and I am one of the soldiers. I have to stand up and salute you, right?" Sun Zhuang asked angrily, Zhang Gou's attitude made him even more annoyed, "The battalion generals of the Huaidong Army must all If you can't beat it with gold, you can do it, Chen Zhu can do it, you must be incapable of fooling me?"

"Maybe the master is still not willing to do it," Zhang Gou said calmly, "Is the Huaidong army worth the risk of the master's life?"

"Bah, Ding Zu's life is worthless. When he is a broken army general, his life is valuable? People are dead and birds are in the air, and it's just a cheap life," Sun Zhuang spat, glared at Zhang Gou and said, "You said these nonsense words. ,What's the point?"

"Master Rod is a soldier today. It's only natural that he eats rations and uses a knife to kill the enemy. If Master Rod is a battalion general, he will kill a city for the Huaidong Army in the future," Zhang Gou said. "Master Rod thinks the same?"

"Zhang Gou, what's the matter today, why are you talking so aggressively?" Chen Zhe was afraid that they would tear up and fight if they quarreled again, so he felt strange about Zhang Gou's words today and complained.

"Killing one person is for the sake of living. In the past, Pole Master slaughtered 3,000 people at Yunti Pass. What was he thinking?" At this time, another voice came from the shadows. Chen Zhe looked up, but it was Lin Tie who was in Zhou Tong. Accompanied by , come this way.

Chen Zui was stunned for a moment. Lin Fu personally came to Shengzhou to supervise the battle. He didn't even know any news. Only then did he realize that Zhang Gou asked Lin Fu about some things just now. My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
