Li Yue finally stopped when he ran to Shicheng and took a breath.
I gathered up the water, land and soil, but Fang Yu people ran too fast, and most of them probably got separated.
This is also good. Many of them are originally from the second county of Brazil, and they can return home on their own.
Shicheng was once the place where Brazilian counties were governed. As for why Brazilian officials came here, of course, it was because the Li family defeated the officials and generals of Shu in the Pu Dynasty and could not come here.
Shicheng is isolated on three sides, only on the south side is the river, which is accessible to the public. It is roughly located in Shibaozhai, Zhong County, Chongqing.
Such terrain is difficult to attack on land, but the river surface is open. Fortunately, the navy is still able to fight now, although their morale is a bit low.
However, today the Navy left a large number of people, and a large number of army generals left with them.
Later, Li Yue sent people to count, and there were only about 5,000 Lu Shishi stationed in Shicheng. He couldn't stay there, and two thousand people were stuffed into the city, and the south side went to the riverside, and then he lay down in a row.
Three thousand people.
As the sun sets, Li Yue takes hundreds of remaining personal soldiers out of the city to patrol, and can't help but burst into tears.
The more than 2,000 people living in the city have a complete system and relatively complete equipment, but these people outside the city are very poor.
The auric stomach was basically lost, but now there are only the equipment left by the people who retreated first, so that they will not be unarmed.
But the morale was really low. Everyone squatted or lying, with only the steaming food in their eyes. Other than that, there seemed to be nothing to impress them.
Seeing Li Yue coming to patrol, some people stood up a little while. Others barely stood up after being scolded by the officers.
Such a major retreat will really damage the morale of the army. If you don’t make any corrections, you will not be able to return to the battlefield.
Li Yue sighed and said, "Kill the lonely war horse to satisfy the soldiers."
The personal soldiers were stunned for a moment, and saw that Li Yue was not joking, so they responded.
Li Yue swept around and said, "This battle is not a crime for the king and others. I made a big mistake in the formation of troops, so I took it. The court held the court accountable and took it alone, without any consequences."
After pausing, he said, "I have already reported to the court. In a few days, reinforcements will arrive in Brazil. No matter how arrogant the Liang thieves are, they dare not enter Shu without food and grass outside or guide inside. The situation is not
When we are in danger, we should work together to defend Brazil and stop the Liang thieves in Badong."
"The thieves are bloodthirsty and become ignorant of human nature. If they are allowed to break into Shu, their family members will not be protected. Then it will be too late to regret it."
"If you fight to the death and block the Liang thief, your family will be able to live and work in peace, and the court will also give you rewards.
If you are good or bad, you should savor it carefully.”
After saying that, he looked at everyone with a slightly hopeful look.
Some people avoided his gaze, some people lowered their heads, and some people still looked at the meal, as if they only cared about when the meal was ready.
Li Yue was slightly angry. But he also knew that he could not lose his temper at this time. The reinforcements of the court had not arrived yet.
Next, they have to rely on them to resist, otherwise if the Liang people step into Shu, everything will be over.
After the patrol patrol, Li Yue was not very energetic. That night, news came from the east: Liang thieves came out of Nanpu and rushed to Rangtu. More than a thousand defenders did not obey the orders and led hundreds of defeated soldiers who were rushing to Shicheng.
Retreat the direction one by one, located in Wanzhou Du Town, Chongqing.
Li Yue was shocked, but he didn't reveal anything, and just silently calculated the next path in his heart.
From Nanpu to the sansanthemum is fifty or sixty miles, with many mountains and not easy to walk.
There is a sandbank on the river outside the soil, called "hutan". There are dozens of naval ships stationed. So far, no reports of the Liang army's navy attacks have been reported. In other words, even if the Liang army pursues, they can only leave.
Transfer food and grass by land, and this is limitless.
And Rangtu walked about 110 miles westward to reach the stone city where he is now stationed.
Don't worry!
Li Yue stayed in Shicheng for two more days with a calm and leisurely manner, gathering more than a thousand defeated soldiers before he "she" to travel west.
On the night of the fifteenth, the entire army arrived at Huanghuapu and was located one by one at the entrance of the Huanghua River. There was a sandbank named "Huanghuazhou", which was Huanghua Island in Zhongxian County later.
On the 17th, he arrived in Linjiang County (now Zhong County, Chongqing). At this time, Li Yue received the news again: Liang's troops arrived at Shicheng, with only a few dozen people climbing up the rock, and a thousand defenders left the city and went south to Jiangpu.
, flee by boat.
Li Yue was so angry that he almost fainted. Your mother! I really don’t want to guard it? Even if it’s a little bit, it’s fine.
But now that things have come to this point, even he himself is very panicked, so how can he blame others?
That night, Li Yue brought thousands of defeated soldiers across Huxutan and rushed southwest. Two days later, he arrived at Fengdu Mountain, the ancient city of Hanfengdu.
At this time, Chengdu urgently ordered the army to pass: Those who retreat will be killed without mercy!
Li Yue then summoned the land and land generals and joined more than 13,000 troops, and stationed in this Taoist scenic spot a while ago, intending to fight to the death.
However, they did not wait for Liang Jun, because the latter was almost at the limit at this time.
Fu Hong's tribe arrived at the empty Linjiang around 20 days.
As the Cheng Kingdom naval army was cruising on the river surface, the naval army commander Yang Bao sent dozens of ships to fight with him. Deputy Governor Huang He was injured. The navy was forced to retreat and avoided the rivers and streams near Shicheng, relying on the protection of the land division.
Therefore, the front line is basically stagnant here.
Going further forward, the food and grass I carried with me was not enough, and the land transportation was very long and consumed a lot. In addition, the surrounding people were unstable and they were not close to each other, so they could not raise grain on the spot. So they stopped their troops and turned to stabilize the rear.
Now Shao Shen’s main job is to hunt down the defeated soldiers along the way, recruit the masters of the barbarian caves, so that they will not do all this indiscriminately, and they still need to build a navy camp in a suitable place, preferably like Ruxu
The dock is like a land-based integrated water and land, which can be used as an army camp and a navy port, and then a large warehouse city is built, and it is necessary to find ways to hoard all kinds of materials needed for 30,000 people to fight in a year.
This is not something I can imagine.
In the past, Liu Xiu destroyed Shu and recruited 60,000 people and more than 5,000 war horses. He gathered in Jingmen for two years.
When Liu Bei entered Shu, there were only more than 10,000 people, and the thousands of soldiers and horses supported by Sun Quan, the total number was no more than 15,000.
But Liu Bei fought a political war and could not be treated according to normal wars, so Shao Shen thought that 30,000 people were more suitable to destroy troops. Of course, he did not know that Huan Wen and Huan had only brought more than 7,000 Jingzhou soldiers.
When the old man Huan dared to go against the current and attack and destroy Cheng Han, he was very stunning when he was eager to make progress.
On the 21st, Shao Shen arrived in Linjiang County in person.
The county officials had already fled, but only the local tyrants came to visit him in fear. They were not the head of the family, but the nephews of the clan, obviously, who came to find out the scenery.
Shao Shen knew the importance of the matter. He rewarded fifty pieces of cloth and silk for those who came to visit, and comforted him with kind words, so that he could rest assured and not panic.
A few days later, these local tyrants had a total of 10,000 hu of grain, a thousand pigs and sheep, and a hundred jars of wine to work hard.
Shao Shen accepted it one by one and showed his merits.
*******
On the eve of Shao Shen's arrival in Linjiang County, Shao Xun received the military newspaper for the great victory in Badong and made it public at the court meeting on the second day, and all the ministers congratulated him.
At this time, everyone saw the dawn of destruction. For a moment, undercurrents surged, and each was thinking about how to get benefits from it.
The family’s century-old plan depends on these subtle efforts.
After the court meeting ended, Shao Xun kept Yu Liang.
"The Yuan rules are remote in Shu, and they have always been easy to defend themselves and be at peace. Now, I have finally knocked on this turtle shell. Once it is attacked and destroyed, I must be controlled by important officials." Shao Xun said, and handed the edict to Yu Liang.
Yu Liang reached out to take it and looked roughly. It turned out to be a commendation edict.
He Hong was promoted to the first level and was appointed as the fourth-rank General Lingjiang;
Fu Anguan was promoted to the next level, Ren Zheng was promoted to the seventh rank of Linjiang Order:
Dou Yuzhen gave two hundred pieces of silk, and gave birth to a hundred people;
Shan Ji, the second son of the prefect of Shangjun, was appointed as the seventh-rank deputy goalkeeper:
Lu Zhuchang, the eldest son of the prefect of Diaoyin, gave him hundreds of pieces of silk and fifty people;
The edict listed dozens of people, most of whom had no officials, but they were rewarded with property.
The spoils obtained by the soldiers who went to fight were distributed according to the military merits of each department, and the court did not collect them. The other person gave two pieces of silk and one piece of white linen. He died in battle, died of illness, and was injured and disabled soldiers to give five pieces of silk to the silk to the pension.
The rewards are not very generous, but they are much better than the behavior of often lying on debts during the Han, Wei and Jin dynasties.
Besides, what if you really don’t give rewards? Do all the kings have to give money to move?
Yu Liang had no objection to this, and after reading it, he sealed it up and presented it to the imperial case.
Shao Xun asked the palace servant to take it away and hand it over to the Shizhong, and sent it to the Tai Pavilion. Then he looked at Yu Liang, who was uneasy, and suddenly smiled and said, "Yuangui, what kind of friendship do you and me have to do this? Tell me, if you destroy me,
What preparations are needed?”
"Source." In this matter, Yu Liang and Shao Shen coincided with each other.
When the navy cannot gain an advantage, they can only hoard enough resources on the front line and send troops after they are fully prepared.
"The resources are not a matter of one day or one night." Yu Liang said again: "It takes time to build a civil palace and some roads may also need to be repaired. During this period, the court cannot do nothing."
Shao Xun was very happy when he heard this. Liangzi had always had no problem.
He could never see the problem and know where there are hidden dangers to be solved. This gaze was quite good. But he was too impatient and a little arrogant. He was prone to be very fond of merit and eventually made things messy.
Liangzi is also a strange person who can see the problem but does not have the right means to solve the problem.
This guy is more than enough to be a strategist, but it may not be necessary to let him get started with practical exercises.
"What do you think you should do?" Shao Xun asked.
Yu Liang sorted out his thoughts and said, "I think we should contact the great clans in Shu."
"There are also disputes between local tourists in Chengguo. In the past, Li Te led Tianshui, Lueyang, Fufeng, Shiping, Wudu and Yinping six counties to go south to sweep the counties, and there were Shu areas.
Most of the Dukes, Ministers, Generals and Prime Ministers of Chengguo were new members of the six counties, and there were very few old clans in Shu. In the past, they were afraid of the children of the six counties, so they did not dare to rebel. Now, it is different from the past. If Your Majesty treats the old clans in Shu well and grants official positions, then the minister will be
Lead the vote."
After hearing this, Shao Xun refused to comment.
Yu Liang was stunned. Did I say it wrong?
Shao Xun stood up, walked behind Yu Liang, patted his shoulder, and said, "Yuangui, you are roughly right. But if you care for me directly, it will probably be useless."
Yu Liang was puzzled at first, but suddenly, his inspiration suddenly appeared and said, "I know."
"What do you know?" Shao Xun said curiously.
"Your Majesty can order the King of Yan to marry the Shu family, and then "Yuan Rules!" Shao Xun sighed helplessly and said, "Your move is not wrong, but using it rashly will only harm the court.
The wealthy family in Shu. Do you think this is a native of Nandu?"
After saying that, the iron sand palm patted Yu Liang's shoulder and said, "It's like a battle to attack Liangzhou. You can only do this when the troops are approaching Chengdu and the whole of Shu is shocked. The wealthy families in Shu are indeed dissatisfied with the Li family, but they
Are you really willing to surrender to me so easily? Think about it carefully. You still don’t understand the thoughts of the old tribes of Wu and Shu.”
Yu Liang was silent for a long time.
He seemed to understand a little. His Majesty did not expect the great tribe in Shu to accept the title. As long as they were neutral at the critical moment and did not help each other, they would be satisfied.
According to this idea, it is indeed possible to do it, because the old tribes in Shu had turned against foreign military and political groups that were pressed on them.
The people in this place are quite closed. If you can fight, you will be separatist and independent. If you can't fight, you will surrender and continue to live, as long as you guarantee their interests.
