Chapter 823 Wei Jun goes south

(Walk the comment and let me see your hands!!)

On June 28, 10th year of the Weihou, after being continuously blocked by the Wei army, 120,000 Chu troops who had been traveling continuously entered Qi.

Before the Chu army entered Qi, Xiong Xian sent envoys to Linzi to express his intention to this trip to Tian Yuwen.

Therefore, the Chu army was not obstructed by the Qi border guards when they entered Qi. Even the current top leaders of Qi are happy about this.

Qi is not as feudal as Wu and Chu, so there will be no gap between cooperation between the two countries, let alone Qi is now in crisis.

But entering Qi is just the beginning. Now most of the Wei army is fighting fiercely in the northern part of Qi, and the Chu army is unable to directly enter the battle at this time.

So they still have to rush to the front line of the battle between Qi and Chu.

Faced with this clear-minded Chu army, the Wei army would definitely not watch it.

While the Chu army continued to rush north, a large army of Wei was already gathering.

This army has only 40,000, and it seems unlikely to stop 120,000 Chu troops.

But since the Wei army plans to use this army to intercept, of course they are sure enough.

Because these 40,000 troops are composed of 20,000 military soldiers and 20,000 iron armored cavalry, it is the most elite army of the Wei State, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it has unparalleled combat power.

The combat effectiveness of Wei Wuzhang and the iron-armored cavalry has been tested many times in actual combat, and this is also the confidence that the Wei army dared to use them to block the Chu army.

This army that is about to participate in the war is led by Wei Wuji himself, and its combat effectiveness will undoubtedly reach a higher level.

As the monarch who led the rise of Wei State, Wei Wuji's appeal in the army was unparalleled. With him in charge of commanding the soldiers, he would only work harder.

It is logical that military operations should be carried out in secret, but since Wei Wuji wanted to stop the Chu army, he had to make a noise.

After all, the main purpose of this operation was to restrain the Chu army, not to annihilate it, so we are not afraid that the Chu people would be scared away when they hear the news. Instead, the Wei army still expects the Chu people to run away.

Since Wei Wuji led the army, he was naturally the one who was arbitrary in the military affairs, so he had to leave if he asked the army to leave and stop if he asked to stop.

For example, today, it was still early before noon, so Wei Wuji ordered the army to stop and repair it.

Such an order is undoubtedly a bit strange, because whether it is a military soldier or an iron armored cavalry, this intensity of march is stressless for them and does not require rest at all.

The generals were extremely puzzled, and they could only hold it in, but the soldiers below felt it was natural, because the king would not be wrong.

Countless battles in the past have proved that as long as the decision made by the monarch is sure to be correct.

The soldiers understood Wei Wuji, but the generals were surrounded by him, so Wei Wuji felt it was necessary to sort out his ideas for these people.

"Zhu Xiao..." Sitting in the simple pavilion, Wei Wuji shouted to a general standing next to him.

Now the most powerful combat power of Wei State has been replaced by Wei Wuji as his confidant, which is the old team who was the founding army in Guihuacheng.

After being called by Wei Wuji, Zhu Xiao replied respectfully: "I am here..."

Wei Wuji put down the new king's water bag and then said, "I see you wandering around in the sky, tell me what are you thinking?"

Zhu Xiao immediately turned bitter. What else could he think of, he didn't think of anything just now!

But since Wei Wuji was looking for trouble, he naturally would not give Zhu Xiao a chance to explain. He said to the others present: "There are you guys, and you all... I can't figure it out in my mind, let me solve your doubts!"

Hearing this, the generals present had already understood Wei Wuji's intentions after turning their heads a little faster.

But at this time they couldn't speak, and they couldn't really answer that they had any objections to the army's actions.

Although everyone here is famous and has a general with a strong army, they dare not be arrogant in front of Wei Wuji.

In fact, when Wei Wuji asked this, he did not expect these people to answer. He knew very well about these people's virtues.

"What's the use of us in a hurry to rush? It's enough to let the people of Chu know that our army is moving south, let them have some concerns, and even stop in the southern part of Qi!"

The reason why the generals wanted to advance quickly was because they saw that other fronts were fighting fiercely, so they were eager to make contributions.

Wei Wuji took all this in his eyes, so he had to stay awake and not let others conquer his will.

"Your Majesty!" The generals all bowed.

Wei Wuji's words extinguished the generals' fire. Although he was unwilling to accept it, he could only execute the orders.

Because this is not just an explanation, but also a warning to them, the king is already dissatisfied with their thoughts.

Wei Wuji nodded slightly, then said, "Get up and do your best!"

Zhu Xiao and others stood up, each of them was more respectful than before.

"Tell me, what's going on in Qi State recently!" Wei Wuji asked casually.

Wei Wuji is now very busy. Although he has read the battle reports himself, he cannot finish reading so many every day, so several generals serve as his secretary.

Because Wei Wuji was looking at Zhu Xiao at this time, he had to be the first to stand up and answer.

Zhu Xiao said: "Your Majesty, the army under Xiangping Camp has now taken down Qi Hualin County and Yuan County. Now its army is besieging Nanji and will launch a general attack soon!"

Nanjicheng is the county town of Yuan County and the old nest of the aristocratic forces of Qi State.

The northern border of Qi was the place where its aristocratic fiefs were located. In order to establish a consolidated rule here, Wei Wuji had to remove his aristocratic forces.

Therefore, Wei Wuji also gave Liu Xuanba the death order, asking him to take down Nanjicheng no matter what.

"I helped Tian Yuwen destroy the aristocratic forces he hated. I wonder if he would be grateful to me!" Wei Wuji smiled at this time.

The generals next to him were ridiculous. Tian Yuwen was afraid that the monarchy would continue to be constrained by the aristocratic clans, so that at least the Qi State would be intact.

"What's wrong with Zheng Chang? I saw the battle report yesterday and said that his army's vanguard was less than two hundred miles away from Linzi!"

Zhu Xiao originally wanted to continue answering, but Zuo Yuanhu, who was on his side, spoke first: "Your Majesty, General Zheng Chang came to the battle report again this morning. They have captured Huaibei County City, and are now only more than 150 miles away from Linzi!"

This is the benefit of collective efforts, which allows Wei Wuji to know the movements of each department faster and more accurately.

Wei Wuji nodded slightly. Zheng Chang's army was more than 150 miles away from Linzi, and the speed of this propulsion was already very fast.

But it is foreseeable that the next front will be so easy to advance, because this is already the core area of ​​Qi.

Although Tian Yuwen is not an excellent monarch, the forefathers of Qi have given more than a hundred years of grace to the people around Linzi, which has caused the biggest problem to capture Qi.

"What Zheng Chang and the others lack is time. Only enough time can they capture Linzi..."

Speaking of this, Wei Wuji raised his tone and said, "So, we must restrain the Chu army and not let them reunite with the Qi army!"

"But the same thing, our army does not need to move too fast. It is best to defeat the enemy without fighting!"

As a human being, this seems to be somewhat incompatible with Wei Wuji's usual style, because Wei Wuji has never been afraid of fighting, but this time he was too cautious.

The final reason is that Wei Wuji expressed doubts about whether Zheng Chang could quickly take over Linzi, and if Zheng Chang fails, it is very likely that the Wei army will collapse across the board.

Therefore, the army led by Wei Wuji has a task not only to restrain the Chu army, but also to suppress the country's destiny and cannot be easily carried out.

But Wei Wuji could not tell his subordinates about this relatively pessimistic idea. At this time, he only heard him ask loudly: "Do you understand everything?"
