Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-Six Jianghuai Chaos
Yang Xingmi finally couldn't withstand Sun Ru's powerful offensive and asked Chang'an for help. In the current situation of danger, the only way is the best strategy. At this time, the counselor Yuan Xi once again suggested that Yang Xingmi find a way out early, so Yang Xingmi actively transported a large amount of supplies to Luzhou. In this way, it can avoid the enemy's edge, Yangzhou's long-term battle was broken and the hearts of the people had not yet surrendered. The decisive battle may be wiped out. Second, Luzhou was originally a place where Longxing was intact, and the generals were all from Luzhou. Although the operation was not long, it had a small foundation. Yangzhou still had a retreat.
In the first year of Wende, in March, Sun Ru cleared all the strongholds outside Yangzhou, burned the war again to Yangzhou, and changed the king flag again. Yang Xingmi followed Yuan Xi's advice and retreated back to Luzhou. However, Luzhou was not a flat land. Luzhou was too close to Yangzhou. The whole army was defeated. The morale was extremely low. As long as Sun Ru pursued it, it was difficult to stop. What should I do if I go to the south first to avoid Sun Ru's sharpness and then defended with the crisscrossing water network in Jiangnan. However, Yang Xingmi and Yuan Xi had differences. Yang advocated attacking Zhong Chuan of Hongzhou (now Nanchang City) and Yuan Xi advocated looking for opportunities for Zhao Yang in Xuanzhou (now Xuancheng City).
Yuan Xi pointed out that Zhong Chuan has pacified Jiangxi for a long time and Zhao Yun is still in a shallow foundation in Xuanzhou and it is easy to attack. Hezhou Sun Duan is also possible. Zhang Xiong of Shangyuan supports him. It is really a blessing to have a military advisor who is very clear about the situation. But if it cannot be adopted, it is still a waste of time. Yang Xingmi is a real leader. He can always listen to the correct opinions of others.
There are 100,000 troops stationed here at the entrance of the lake on the south bank of the Yangtze River. Zhao Yan, the governor of the army, has been sluggish since Sun Ru came to Huainan Army. The soldiers who patrol the Gejiang defense every day are also lazy. It's no wonder they say, "A general is a nest." The generals who are strong in fighting are all killed by Sun Ru on the battlefield. What kind of spirit do the soldiers have?
The soldiers patrolling the Ge River were responding to the situation and dealing with the mission. Suddenly, a fleet was coming from the upper reaches. The ship was hanging high on the bow of the ship. The patrol ship immediately sailed back to the camp. The Yangxingmi navy also had to conduct routine patrols every day. Both sides patrolled the Yangtze River as the boundary. Each side had always been peaceful. However, since Sun Ru crossed the river, every time Yangxingmi navy patrolled the river, Zhao Yi's navy had to avoid being provoked by the arrogant Yangzhou navy soldiers. Today, they also thought it was Yangzhou navy patrolling the river as usual. But soon they found that today was a little different from the past.
This navy fleet is so huge. No vassal state would burn so much. Daily patrols would send such a huge fleet. A huge fleet was built with a huge sail. The fleet was swaying in front of the Huxuanzhou Navy. It was swaying in front of the Huxuanzhou Navy.
If a general saw this strange situation here, he would have determined that he had made a decision and ordered troops to be sent. Yangzhou Navy set up a long snake formation. Xuanzhou Army occupied the geographical advantage as long as the surprise troops were prominent. The Yangzhou Navy must be cut off from it. The head and tail were not allowed to be taken into account. However, the Xuanzhou generals only wanted to calm down the situation.
The Yangzhou Navy went down to the forefront of the Xuanzhou Yangtze River Defense Line and was "breaking through" by the Yangzhou Navy without a single arrow.
Then, the barrier of the frontier Xuanzhou city, Fuzhou garrison An Shiming, heard the news and immediately opened the city gate and drove the cow to drive the pig land to work hard on the Yangzhou army. The Yangzhou army had always done this. The Yangzhou army was reasonable. But in the past, the Yangzhou army would leave happily after collecting the wine and meat. This time they rushed up like a wolf and tiger to see that they were like a group of hungry refugees who wanted not only to eat pigs and cows.
An Shiming was shocked. The desperate fight of the soldiers An Shiming escaped alone when he fled to the distance and pulled back the horse and turned his head back when he looked back. When he saw that the Yang-shaped flag was floating on the top of Fuzhou.
The battle was undeclared, the blitzkrieg, the raid was followed by the severity of diplomatic relations, the letter of war, the battle period, the stinking rules of fighting were lost since the Spring and Autumn Period. The soldiers were never tired of deceit, the kingly way of war, Yang Xingmi joined Sun Duan, Zhang Xiong's troops defeated the enemy's peripheral troops and successfully surrounded Xuanzhou. Under the continuous siege, Xuanzhou was exhausted. The tragedy of cannibalism in the city. Zhao Yi was driven away by the general Zhou Jinsi and was captured on the way to escape. The soldiers of Xuanzhou were unstable. Zhou Jinsi captured Zhou Jinsi and surrendered. After Kaicheng surrendered, Yang Xingmi's general Xu Wen cooked porridge to provide hungry refugees (Don't underestimate this practice. Yang Xingmi and his army did this. This was a benevolent and righteous army.)
Through the joint efforts of the people, the people's hearts slowly endured under the banner of Yang Xingmi. Xuanzhou was originally a big province. When it was full of 121,24 households, the population was 884,985. Now the people's hearts are attached to Yang Xingmi's strength. Good things always go hand in hand with bad things.
News from the front line that Sun Ru sent troops to attack Luzhou garrison Cai Qi surrendered, which indicates that Caizhou's large-scale attack is about to come. There is no way out to defend the lonely city. It must be able to echo each other. Only then should be defended by Xuanzhou. Yang Xingmi took advantage of Sun Ru's army's attack on Changzhou (now Changzhou City). Xuanzhou and Changzhou echoed from east to west.
The expected attack began. Sun Ru's army, who had been raising energy for a long time, crossed the Yangtze River and then fell into Changzhou and Xuanzhou. At this time, good news came from Sun Ru, who was originally Qin Zongquan's subordinates, mostly Huaixi soldiers, Huaixi soldiers have always been Zhu Wen's mortal enemy in Henan. Although Qin Zongquan had been beaten, Zhu Wen would never allow Huaixi soldiers to make a comeback. Now he has fought again to influence the governor Shi Pu, who has no ability to fight back, can free up his hands to interfere in the affairs of Huainan.
Zhu Wen was not defeated by the coalition forces of Duan Mingyu and Li Keyong. The battle of Wang Mandu did not begin. Zhu Wen never gave up on the wealthy Jianghuai. He sent general Pang Shigu to lead the army from Yingshang (now Fuyang City) to Huainan to claim support for Yang Xingmi to attack Sun Ru, Zhu Wen and Yang Xingmi. Because of the first and last time, the common enemy joined forces with the powerful Pang Shigu army in the first year of Dashun. The powerful Pang Shigu army in the Lu, Shou, Chu line successively captured Tianchang and Gaoyou Sun Ru's army back to rescue the two sides. The battle in Lingting was fought.
