Chapter 204: Taking Honggu City lightly(1/2)
The mountains, rivers, cities and passes of the Xia Kingdom are all vividly miniature in the sand table.
The movement of a small general's flag affects the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers.
Chen Zeqing looked at them with particularly deep eyes.
He said casually: "Speaking of which, the battle in Youping Mansion went more smoothly than in Linwu Mansion."
Wang Yiwu was slightly interested: "Because of Tian Anping?"
"Not necessarily." Chen Zeqing looked away and asked, "Are you familiar with Yan Fu?"
Wang Yiwu raised his eyebrows: "What do I know about him?"
Chen Zeqing smiled: "Yan Fu's battle is very interesting."
"Is he also a good soldier?" Wang Yiwu asked nonchalantly.
Chen Zeqing said: "On the battlefield on the northern front, he bribed enemy generals on a large scale... He gave money when they surrendered. When he led troops to surrender, he paid more money. He even shouted slogans, 'Submit an army and you will have no worries in your life. Invest in a city and you will be rich for three lifetimes.
'..."
As he spoke, he shook his head and smiled again: "I can't tell whether I know the soldiers or not, but the effect seems to be good."
Wang Yiwu had an expression on his face that said, "That's okay." He didn't know what to say.
Chen Zeqing added: "I don't know what Zhaonan is doing now."
Wang Yiwu gave a rare smile: "He may be thinking... what are we doing!"
The frenzy subsided briefly, and behind the moment of silence was a more intense accumulation.
During the tense intervals of the fighting, the two senior fellow apprentices chatted all over the world.
In fact, when Wang Yiwu first started, the military god was busy with military affairs, so several senior brothers taught him how to practice. Especially Chen Zeqing taught him the most, and the relationship between the two was particularly deep.
It’s just that as they grow older, everyone has their own things to do... Especially as disciples of the Military God of Da Qi, while enjoying endless glory, they must also show a performance that matches this glory, so as not to become one of the Military Gods.
A stain on the name.
All their brothers, three alive and two dead, actually worked very hard.
They haven't talked like this for a long time.
…
…
Honggu City is located behind Huyang Pass, with a dangerous pass in front and fertile soil in the back. There have been few wars and natural disasters over the years, and the city is very prosperous. It is adjacent to Xinjie City in Fengli, and the other is in Huiming Mansion.
One is in the west, and the other is in the east of Huiming Mansion. The way home for the "Fengli Mansion Army" can be regarded as completely opposite.
Of course, for Chongxuan Sheng, there is no other destination. This is where his goal lies.
At this time, the whole army of the Victory Battalion had changed into the military uniforms of the Shao Kang Mansion Army, which can be said to be "returning to the original intention."
For this war against Xia, Chong Xuan Sheng prepared a total of three hundred storage boxes and distributed them to the entire army, which was enough to hold a lot of supplies. Of course, the consumption of three thousand elite soldiers, Qi, Blood Pills and Daoyuan Stones was also huge.
Soldiers who are not extraordinary, as well as soldiers who are in the early stages of becoming extraordinary, need to eat and drink more. No matter how much supplies they carry with them, they are not enough, so they must eat from the enemy.
They made a lot of money in Ximing City, so they don't have to worry about Dao Yuan Stone and Qi and Blood Pills for the time being.
Compared with Linwu Mansion, which was the front line of the Qi-Xia War, and Huyang Pass, which stood in front of the entire Huiming Mansion and was guarded by Hushuo.
The defense of Honggu City can be described as lax.
Chongxuan Sheng showed the command flag and sealed the letter, saying that he was a reinforcement from Shao Kang Mansion rushing to Linwu Mansion. Due to the defeat, he retreated and asked to go to the peak to rest and recuperate nearby.
The defenders of Honggu City actually opened the city gate and invited the friendly troops to eat!
I don't know whether he was too confident in the troops stationed at Huyang Pass, or he felt that it was impossible for the Qi army to break out of Linwu Mansion in a short time.
The flag seal letter was inspected, and the guard of Honggu City even came to greet him personally.
The place to entertain the friendly troops was directly chosen as the school grounds of the Honggu City Guards.
Big fish and meat are piled on top, and running water mats directly fill the school grounds.
The "Shao Kang Mansion Army" dispersed and sat down, feasting unceremoniously, which was in line with the temperament of a defeated army retreating in embarrassment.
The chief general "Jiang Sheng" was invited into the camp, and he exchanged cups with the Honggu city guard who was personally accompanying him, and had a pleasant conversation.
It is indispensable to talk about our years and our past glorious experiences. In the smooth and flawless conversation, the atmosphere gradually became warm.
When the wine was full, "Jiang Sheng" said that he would pass on his little order and tell him to handle military affairs on his behalf. Today he would let go of his restraints and accompany Yunyun, his brother in Honggu City, at the wine table.
When the young commander walked into the camp, the guards, captains, and bookkeepers of Honggu City were waiting, but they never came out again.
Li Chen, the captain of the guard who was standing outside the tent, didn't hear any sound at all. When he saw the fat general of the "Shaokang Mansion Army" coming out with Xiao Ling, he said goodbye politely.
After waiting for a long time, he didn't see his general coming out, so he said he should go in and check out the situation. At this sight, he was so frightened that his three souls went to heaven!
All the high-ranking military attachés from Honggu City had their necks wiped clean! They were lying neatly around the wine table.
He rushed to the school grounds without realizing it, and happened to see the mutiny process of the "Shao Kang Mansion Army".
Those sloppy and hungry "Shaokang Mansion Army" put down the cups and bowls in their hands and spat out the bones in their mouths. In an instant, they seemed to have been reborn. They all showed their strength, and they had already formed a battle formation in a few steps.
!
The sword was fast and the steps were fast. Then he pushed all the way, scattering the city guards who had reluctantly gathered in panic again and again, and mercilessly suppressed all resistance, leaving only billowing heads and dense crowds of people kneeling in surrender.
people!
In less than an hour, they took control of the city guard barracks.
This level of eliteness far exceeded his imagination!
Two hours later, all the key points of the entire city were controlled by this army.
Li Chen vaguely wondered if he was the drunk one at the wine table.
Isn't all this before my eyes a nightmare?
But the knife on his neck, forcing him to kneel down and surrender, reminded him that he would not wake up!
Li Chen knelt down in humiliation.
Then, together with all the brothers of the Honggu City Guards, they were gathered together and forcibly driven to destroy the Honggu City's city defense formation.
Amidst the wails of the city defense formation, when he personally cut through the nodes of the formation he was guarding.
He really felt that the fat man was the most evil devil in the world!
The fat man asked everyone to submit to the Qi State and be the vanguard of the Qi army. If they did not obey, they would be killed.
The killing was bloody, and the killing was frightening.
He also knelt down again.
Then he was appointed as a general, and two thousand city guards were assigned to him. Without imposing any restrictions, he was ordered to sneak attack the Cobalt Blue City in the south...
He had unprecedented fear, anger, and confusion.
The city was easily broken, the general was killed, trust was gained easily, and he had the opportunity to defect. But he couldn't figure out why?!
…
"Why?"
This is also Jiang Wang's problem.
Although the process of occupying Honggu City is quite easy, it is still a big city and its value will not be much lower.
But Chong Xuan Sheng seems to have no intention of making any fuss here.
He only did three things.
First, destroy the city defense formation and destroy the war resources stored in the city. Open the treasury, take away everything that can be taken away, and destroy everything that cannot be taken away.
Second, he released all the flying beasts used by Honggu City to send messages during wartime, wrote many letters asking for help, and stamped them all with the seal of the city lord.
Third, after driving the defenders to destroy the city defense formation, force them to surrender. Then divide the surrendered city guards into several armies, and select generals on the spot to lead them, one army in the east and one army in the west, and drive them like a child's play.
, to attack other adjacent cities.
Especially for the last thing, Jiang Wang couldn't see the meaning at all.
Thinking about it with your toes, you know that surrender is not so easy. In Ximing City, there was coercion and inducement to divide the people. Even if they tried their best, they still couldn't guarantee that Xia Jun would sincerely surrender.
If they act so violently in Honggu City this time, these people will definitely switch sides when they leave the city.
Apart from expediting the exposure of their whereabouts and details, what else can the purpose of sending out these surrendering detachments be?
"Huiming is not Linwu. Linwu Mansion was in chaos at that time, and the battle lines were stalemate in eight cities in the north. Not many people could pay attention to us. Occupying Ximing City, we still have a certain amount of room to move. Huiming Mansion is different.
If Huyang Pass is not breached for a day, the rear will be a piece of iron. They can just close the gate and catch the thieves, but we are already deep in alone."
Chong Xuansheng explained: "When you entered the city, did you see Xia Jun Xinqi? His coat was green and white, and he had a green tie on his ponytail."
Jiang Wang thought for a while: "I have seen it before."
Chong Xuan Sheng smiled: "I also caught one, which is at the back of the team!"
I don't know what kind of bad taste he has. He already has it, but Jiang Wang has to recall his appearance first.
To be continued...
