Chapter 906
Wang Jingyin stood beside the large sand table in the deep state headquarters, thinking about the headache-inducing problems, and for a moment, he felt helpless.
"Deputy Commander!" A soldier walked up to him carefully and replied softly: "General Wang Jingzhi, the envoy of the Boye Army, has been ordered to come back."
Wang Jingyin nodded absent-mindedly, without looking back, and his eyes were still on the entire sand table. Shenzhou is located in the northeast of Chengde Town, Zhao, Ji and Ding, surrounded by four prefectures from three directions in the southeast and west directions. To the north of Shenzhou is Zhuzhou, and further north is Mozhou.
Shenzhou is a strategic location of Chengde Town. It connects the other four prefectures. The Hutuo River passes from the east of the river through Zhenzhou, then passes through the southernmost tip of Dingzhou and enters Shenzhou, flows into the Yingzhou River and Mozhou. In addition, there are two large rivers in the east of Shenzhou that almost run through the entire Hebei, the Zhang River and the Yongji Canal of the Beican River, plus the four tributaries from west to east, namely Zishui, Mudaogou, Yushui and Fengshui that cross the three prefectures of Zhendingshen. Shenzhou can be said to be the gateway to the central region of Hebei.
Not long ago, Tian Lingzi held the emperor hostage and attacked Yang Fugong. The civil strife in the Tang court fled to Chengdu. The two eunuch groups, Tian Lingzi and the Yang brothers, broke out in conflict and were ready to take action at any time. Both eunuchs each had the support of several vassal states and hundreds of thousands of soldiers. When they were in chaos, the entire Tang Dynasty was shocked.
At this moment, Qin Fan, who had been quiet for a year and a half since the last time he seized the entire Daibei, suddenly woke up again, showed his sharp teeth, and issued an ultimatum to Chengdezhen, asking them to surrender to the court within three days. The so-called surrender to the court is actually to surrender to Li Jing of the Qin Fan.
With this ultimatum, the entire Chengde Town was panicked and frightened. Many generals proposed to surrender to Li Jing. After all, the strength of the Qin vassal is obvious to all. Li Keyong, Li Quanzhong and others were defeated by his subordinates one after another. Since Li Jing entered the pass, he has successively annexed the five towns of Lulong Town, Yiwu Town, Cangjing Town, Datong Town, and Yanmen Town, Hebei Hedong Town, and at least not one of them was defeated. Especially in the last battle of Daibei, Li Jing only dispatched a small number of troops and defeated Shatuo. He captured two towns in a row and annihilated the 200,000 Hu cavalry who went south.
Even the former Jieshang coach of Chengde Town, Wang Jingchong, and the former Jieshang coach of Weibo Town, Han Jian, and two old coaches who have experienced countless storms and waves, were directly assassinated by Li Jing's assassin.
Now, Li Jing, Hebei Hedong, only Cheng De and Wei Bo are left, and Wei Bo is still in the south. Li Jing suddenly seized this opportunity to fight Cheng De's opponent. The opportunity was too good. Chengde Town has no reinforcements outside and has a new head coach. Now the Jieshou is just a ten-year-old child. How to fight Li Jing?
No one from Chengde asked Wang Rong about his decision, what decisions could a ten-year-old child make?
However, at the last moment, Wang Jingyin appeared and rebuked the surrendered factions. Wang Jingyin was Wang Jingchong's brother, Wang Jingchong was the legitimate son. He was the eldest son of the polite. Therefore, when Wang Jingchong's father died, the generals in Chengdezhen were too young because Wang Jingchong was too young. However, they did not allow the older Wang Jingchong to take over the position of command, but instead allowed Wang Jingchong's uncle to inherit the position of command. When Uncle Wang Jingchong was seriously ill, he handed over the position of command to Wang Jingchong. Two times, he did not give him the opportunity.
When Wang Jingchong was assassinated, the generals discussed who would inherit the position of commander. Many people suggested that Wang Rong was too young and should hand over the position of commander to Wang Jingchong's uncle's legitimate son to inherit.
The third time, Wang Jingyin was completely ineligible to inherit the throne of commander.
However, this time, he spoke. As the deputy governor of Chengde Town, Wang Jingyin finally came forward to propose that nine-year-old Wang Rong be the new commander. Some of the generals were dissatisfied. Wang Jingyin and his younger brother Wang Jingqi led the ya soldiers to block the Yacheng in Zhenzhou, and eventually forced other members of the Wang clan and the generals to unanimously agree that Wang Jingyin would take over the commander's seal.
After Wang Rong took over the Seal of the Shield, Wang Jingyin, as his uncle, continued to serve as deputy governor, and then his younger brother Wang Jingqi served as the envoy of the Boye Army. He also promoted and demoted a group of officers, reused the two confidants, and actually controlled Chengde Town.
Qin Fan issued an ultimatum to make Chengdezhen surrender, and many people were willing to surrender because Qin Fan treated obediently surrendered generals with good treatment, which was very different from the treatment of being captured and surrendered. However, no one cared about Wang Rong's new season coach, not only because he was young, but also clearly it was just a puppet. Because Wang Jingyin was just a concubine's son, he had no chance to become the commander. Therefore, he opposed the succession of his uncle's adult son, but advocated support for his ten-year-old nephew to succeed the throne.
At the critical moment, Wang Jingyin stood up again and said no loudly.
All generals can surrender, and they may be even richer in the future. Even his nephew Wang Rong can surrender because he is just a child and has the title of handsome men. If he surrenders, although Li Jing will not give him any rights, wealth and honor are indispensable for his whole life.
Only he, Wang Jingyin and Wang Jingzhi, are different. They are the actual controllers of Chengde Town, but they do not have the status. If Chengde surrendered, Li Jing would definitely not tolerate them staying in order to control Chengde Town. No matter what, they would never surrender Li Jing.
Although many generals were full of concern about his decision, Chengdezhen was under his control and there was no way.
After three days, the Qin army could advance south at any time.
Wang Jingyin refused to surrender, but he also knew the consequences. After refusing to surrender, Wang Jingyin had already begun to mobilize German troops to garrison the front line, and at the same time he went to recruit young and strong troops to join the army, and sent people to ask for help from Wei Bo, Li Keyong and others.
The main defense plan of Chengde Town is to gather heavy troops to defend the two major rivers, Hutuo River and Zhang River, and then transfer a group of troops to Dingzhou, relying on the Taihang Mountains and other east-west rivers to cross the calming rivers and intercept the Qin army.
When fighting, especially if the Qin army wants to go south to fight, the route they choose must be the road. Although the two rivers, Hutuo and Zhangshui, will freeze in winter, there is a flat road along the two rivers, which is suitable for the rapid transport of troops and food.
Wang Jingyin is also a veteran in the battlefield. He first participated in the Pangxun Rebellion in Xuzhou. He fought many battles in recent years. His offensive plan for the Qin army was to attack the Qin army along the three major rivers of Hutuo River, Zhang River and Canal, and headed straight to the deep state.
Shenzhou is already preparing to defend the city battle. The Qin army is very strong. Wang Jingyin, who has fought with the Qin army more than once, knows it very well. But if it is a battle to defend the city, they may not be able to fight. First of all, it is winter now, and the powerful Qin army naval forces are completely useless. They cannot enter the inland river from the sea to support the battle. Second, the strongest Qin army is still the cavalry, the second is artillery, but the cavalry is powerful in field battles, so it is impossible to attack the city. As for the Qin army's artillery, although they
Once he used only thousands of artillery soldiers to defeat 30,000 Hu cavalry, but he found out that in that battle, Li Jing used hundreds of thousands of kilograms of gunpowder in a short time, and almost a few years of output. Although the Qin army had not fought in the pass for more than a year, the war outside the pass had not stopped. The Qin army's artillery had cannons but no medicine, and it was almost useless if it could not form a scale. Moreover, now it is winter, and the season of wet, cold, rainy, snow, frost and dew. In such a season, artillery is most susceptible to moisture and wetness and unusable.
On the contrary, they fought a defensive battle this time. Shenzhou, as the gateway of Chengde, has been strengthening for more than a hundred years, and the city is strong. And defensive battles have advantages, and people can be summoned to the city to defend. In addition, he believed that Wei Bo Town would not sit idly by and not save him. Wei Bo and Chengde were cold and cold, and the Qin army went south. If Success and De were defeated, Wei Bo would not survive alone. Moreover, the Qin army was still fighting in the northeast. I heard that the Qin vassal's continuous battles in recent years were also severely damaged. Even if the Qin army attacked, it would not be able to attack with all its strength. Therefore, as long as they fought with all their strength, they might not be defeated.
Shenzhou City has been martial law and is fully prepared for war.
"Raoyang County has been lost!" Wang Jing strode into the shaft, and while removing the cloak that was soaked in the rain, he shouted loudly.
"How is that possible?" Wang Jingyin raised his head in surprise. His spy had been sent to Hejian, Yingzhou. The Qin army had not yet gone south. How could Raoyang County be lost? Raoyang County is the northernmost county in Shenzhou, on the east side of the Hutuo River.
"The magistrate of Raoyang County and the Raoyang delegation directly changed the flag and announced that they had abandoned the darkness and turned to the light and surrendered to Li Jing." Wang Jingqi picked up a large glass of warm wine and sipped it out, exhaling a long sip of wine, and finally felt much more comfortable.
Wang Jingyin knew that the magistrate of Raoyang was a useless guy, but he didn't expect that even Raoyang's siege was a coward. These two people were not their confidants, but they didn't have time to replace them for a while, but they didn't expect that these two guys would directly connect and surrender to the Qin army. Damn, before the war started, a basin of ice water was already poured on his face. His face was hot and he cursed loudly: "Bastard, fuck, such shameless people should have withdrawn long ago and chopped off their heads to feed the dogs. Damn, once they surrendered, the morale of the army had been reduced by half before the battle. I passed the commander's military order and sent a soldier to Raoyang immediately, chopped off the two traitors and came to see him!"
Wang Jing glanced at the sand table in the hall, bowed to Wang Jingyin, and said, "Brother, Rao Yang is a loss, but Anping must not be lost."
Raoyang is east of the Hutuo River, but Anping, which is very close to Raoyang, is west of the Hutuo River. Moreover, it is also the intersection of Mudaogou, Lishui and other rivers and Hutuo River. It is very convenient to go to Dingzhou or Zhenzhou from here.
