Wu Heilong also regretted it at the moment, but now he can only harden his heart, nodded and said to Li Tao: "This is also no way. Zhao Gou's Song Army will definitely send famous generals, and the Qi State Army is also capable of fighting well. For generations, the city’s defenses in that county can never stop their offense. Instead of being scattered and defeated one by one by the opponent, it is better to gather the entire defending army of Fuzhou together, so that there is hope to defend Fuzhou."
Although Wu Heilong made sense, Li Tao could not accept this approach, exclaiming: "But if you do this, wouldn't the nearly 10,000 people in the county have suffered? I have heard of those Qi people. Extremely cruel. Qi State will donate countless gold and silver treasures to the Golden State every year. Therefore, the Qi State Army inherited the tradition of the Jin people, invaded and looted everywhere, like locusts entering the fields without leaving any grass. If you hand over to the people of Qi, wouldn't the people in the county have no way to live?"
Wu Heilong's cheek twitched for a while, how could Wu Heilong not know about this, but in comparison, only by doing so can he defend Fuzhou City. As long as the city of Fuzhou is defended, the soldiers and horses of Zhao Gou's Song Army and Qi State Army will not be able to advance, and it will be a disaster for the Quartet.
Which is more important, Wu Heilong also has a steelyard in his heart, so Wu Heilong still insists on his choice, and said in a deep voice: "I have decided. Only by concentrating the defenders of each city in the city of Fuzhou can we have a chance of winning. Li Tao. Needless to say. Just do it."
"No." Wu Heilong is stubborn, and Li Tao is not a stubborn person? This is also the first time he has so firmly opposed Wu Heilong’s opinions, and said in a deep voice, "Wu Heilong. This can’t be done. Could it be that the people in the city of Fuzhou are human, and the people in that county town are not human? Give up their lives? Since we are officials in Fuzhou, we should be responsible to the people in Fuzhou. We must not give up on them until the last moment. If you do this, it is unfair to the people in the county."
"It's the last juncture now." Wu Heilong couldn't help shouting, pointing at Li Tao and shouting: "Li Tao. You have to figure it out. If we don't transfer all the defenders in Fuzhou to Fuzhou. Coming to the city, it turns out that it is very likely that we will not be able to withstand the attacks of Zhao Gou’s Song Army and Qi State Army. This consequence is not only that we cannot fulfill the orders of the adults and defend Fuzhou. More importantly, once Fuzhou is lost , Then Zhao Gou’s Song Army and Qi State Army’s soldiers and horses will be able to drive straight ahead. At that time, not only our people in Fuzhou will suffer, but all the people in the entire Zhaojia Army occupation area may suffer war. For the sake of the people of a city, it will have to The people in several states are in danger. Is this fair to the more people?"
Li Tao was silent. Wu Heilong made a lot of sense. Although Li Tao was stubborn, he was not the kind of unreasonable person. He just asked him to agree to give up the county town. He couldn't do it anyway.
The whole study was silent for a long time, and finally Wu Heilong let out a long sigh of relief, and said: "I know you can't bear to see the people in the county suffer from the war. Why am I willing to abandon them? But the reality does not allow us to be indecisive. Um. , Let’s do this. While we transferred the defenders of the county town, we told the people in the county town of Zhao Gou’s Song Army and Qi State Army’s invasion and let them escape. As for their future, whether they can escape, everything depends on their good fortune. ,how is it?"
This is already the biggest concession Wu Heilong can make. Li Tao also knows that this is also Wu Heilong's limit. In the end, Li Tao can only nod his head in agreement. Immediately, the entire military and government agencies in Fuzhou began to operate rapidly under the operation of Wu Heilong and Li Tao.
And when the messenger sent by Wu Heilong arrived at the county seat and dispatched the defenders of the county seat at the same time, he informed the people of the county seat of the military situation according to Wu Heilong's order. For a time, the entire county seat was like a pot fried. Not only was Zhao Gou's Song army aggressively attacking, but also a well-known Qi nationality came.
For a time, all the people in the entire county town ran out of the city. Some people want to hide in the nearby mountains, and some people want to move to the hinterland of the Zhaojia Army in the south or the Xinwang Army in the northwest. Of course, most people chose to flee to Fuzhou City with the defenders of the county seat. In less than a day, the entire county town turned into an empty city.
Soon, ten days passed, and the empty county town ushered in a new master, a mixed army composed of Zhao Gou's Song army and Qi people who had finally arrived. This mixed army drove into the county town violently, and from the outside, there were as many as 20 to 30 thousand people. The Qi people came from the support of the northern golden people, and the need to enter quickly this time, so the Qi army is all cavalry. In the mixed army, the more than 10,000 cavalrymen are the army sent by the Qi people this time.
In contrast, although the soldiers under Zhao Gou's account were not as good at riding as the Qi people, they were all elites sent this time. This time, the elite army led by Liu Guangshi himself was dispatched, and all of them had acquired good skills. Except for the more than 10,000 Qi State Army cavalrymen, the remaining soldiers with long bows and single-handed swords slung around their waists were Zhao Gou's Song Army army.
Originally, this mixed army entered the county seat with the intention of looting, but unexpectedly the entire county seat turned into an empty city, let alone property, not even food.
After receiving this news, several generals who had already stationed in the county seat were furious with anger. One of them was a man with a silver helmet and a beard with a silver armour and shouted: "These bandits really She was timid, and she ran away like this without a fight."
This man is Liu Guangshi, the general of the Zhao Gou Song Army. This Liu Guangshi was chosen by Zhao Gou from the few generals in the Song Army and appointed him as the Marshal of the Song Army to command the most elite Song Army under Zhao Gou's account. This time Zhao Gou’s Song Army and Qi Guo Army jointly attacked Fuzhou and suppressed the arrogance of the winning Zhao Yanjun. Naturally, they sent Liu Guangshi, the most effective general, as the representative of Zhao Gou’s Song Army.
After Liu Guangshi complained, another man beside Liu Guangshi smiled and said, "General Liu Guangshi. Don’t worry, the monk can’t run away from the temple. Even if they ran away from this small county, But Zhao Jiajun absolutely dare not give up Fuzhou City. At that time, our army will drive directly outside Fuzhou City to see where they go."
This man is also very strong, with a thick beard, especially a long scar on his face from his forehead to his chin, which looks terrifying. This man is Liu Lin, the king of the Qi State Army and the son of Emperor Liu Yu.
Liu Lin was the son of Emperor Liu Yu, and he was quite capable. Since Liu Lin became the emperor, he has strengthened his rule over the occupied areas. Therefore, in the past six months, the fighting power of the Qi State Army has been greatly strengthened. It is only because of the strength of the king's army that he has not dared to invade south. This time I found the opportunity of Zhao Gou to join forces to march south. As the prince, Liu Lin simply led the troops personally, which shows how much Liu Lin longs for the flowers of the south.
Liu Lin's words made Liu Guangshi's expression somewhat relieved, and he sat back to his original position angrily, and Liu Lin also smiled faintly, then turned his head and looked at the other side, and said, "Master Liu, this time we will send troops together. Go south, then your emperor won't be able to speak and count then, right?"
I saw a middle-aged man sitting on the other side of Liu Lin, who turned out to be Zhang Jun, who had surrendered all the army to the letter king Zhao Zhen, and was assigned by Zhao Gou. This time he was sent to unite with Liu Lin and contact him. What happened in Gangneung.
However, Zhang Jun's appearance at this moment is far worse than that of a senior member of the past, his face is full of wrinkles, and his hair is also mixed with a lot of white hair. In this short period of more than a year, Zhang Jun's appearance has aged a lot.
As soon as Liu Lin's words fell, Zhang Jun snorted and said, "Don't worry. My Majesty promised to give you Huainan two roads before, and you will never break your promise. What you have to worry about is that you can't reach Jiangling as soon as possible. Defeat Zhao Yan. It's not that I look down on you, but the current strength of your and my armies. If Zhao Yan gathers all the troops, you won't be able to fight Zhao Jun."
"Asshole! What are you talking about?" Hearing Zhang Jun's contemptuous tone, Liu Guangshi, who had just managed to suppress the anger in his heart, jumped up again, pointed to Zhang Jun's nose and yelled: "You dare to look down on your majesty. Warrior? Huh. What do you think you are, but a bereaved dog. How dare you pretend to be in front of your uncle Liu Guangshi? What's so great about Zhao Yan. I can twist his head off with one hand. ."
There is no possibility that Zhang Jun will be activated now, and Liu Guangshi has become a feudal ambassador, a prince of a party, with 100,000 soldiers and a high spirited spirit. Before Liu Guangshi was angry with Zhang Jun under Zhang Jun's tent, but this time he grabbed his punching bag.
Zhang Jun ignored Liu Guangshi's wild words and scolding, and even Liu Lin ignored Liu Guangshi's idiot. If Zhao Yan was really as weak as Liu Guangshi said, she would have died many times a long time ago. Back then, Qi Guojun was beaten up and down by the Xinwangjun and fled in a hurry, and Zhao Yan's Zhaojun could be seen by the Xinwangjun as a unity, which shows its strength. Even Xia Cheng united with all the princes and was unable to defeat the Zhao Jun who believed in the king Zhao Zhen, which shows how powerful Zhao Yanjun is. Had it not been for Zhang Jun's contact with a number of internal replies, coupled with the offensive and unprepared unity with Zhao Gou, Liu Lin would not have the guts to provoke Zhao Jiajun who was united with Xin Wangjun.
No matter what, Liu Lin also got Zhang Jun’s confirmation, and his face immediately showed a bright smile, nodded and said: “Actually, I don’t trust Master Zhang Jun, but, Master Zhang Jun also knows that our Qi State Army can It’s not that I have the final say. When I send troops to the south this time, I have to give the ministries and my father an account. Ha ha! Lord Zhang Jun, don’t worry. As long as you break through Fuzhou, there will be information given by Lord Zhang Jun earlier. , My army can drive straight in. Then it will be easy to break Jiangling and destroy the Zhao family army."
Zhang Jun always kept a straight face, and after getting Liu Lin's assurance, he also nodded lightly. At this moment, a warrior of the Qi State Army suddenly walked in from outside, ran to Liu Lin's side quickly, and whispered a few words in Liu Lin's ear.
After listening to the warrior's words, Liu Lin's face became a little ugly. After waving his hand for the warrior to leave, he turned a gloomy face and said to Zhang Jun: "Master Zhang Jun. Just now my men caught a few people and fled. The people in the nearby mountainous area got a message from them. They said that the people in the county had received the news and fled ten days ago. So, our action, wouldn’t it have been taken by Zhao Jun ten days ago? Did you detect it?"
It's no wonder that Liu Lin was so nervous. They attacked Fuzhou this time with an unexpected purpose. Now that they suddenly get news, Zhao Jun might have been prepared. Although Liu Guangshi's army and Qi State Army's army are rare elite divisions, they are far less than Zhao Yanjun's army in number. If Zhao Jun was really prepared, then they would be inferior to the well-equipped Zhao Jun. If this is the case, it might as well withdraw early.
"Impossible." Zhang Jun was also taken aback by the news, but soon he calmed down and shook his head and said: "This is absolutely impossible. I planned this very carefully. Even the internal response in Jiangling City is 100% reliable. It is absolutely impossible for Zhao Yanjun to know this plan in advance."
"Really?" Zhang Jun's decisive attitude made Liu Lin somewhat regained his confidence, frowning and said: "I hope so. I don't want the blood of our Qi State Army warriors. It shouldn't be too late. Tonight is in the county After a rest night, we will drive towards Fuzhou City early tomorrow morning. We will know the truth when we arrive at Fuzhou City."
Zhang Jun also nodded in agreement. If his plan is really discovered by Zhao Yan's military foremost, then it must be Zhao Jun's thousands of troops waiting in Fuzhou City.
One night later, the coalition army embarked on the expedition again. In order to find out the truth, Liu Lin couldn't wait, and led the Qi State Army cavalry to rush towards the city of Fuzhou first. The Qi State Army’s cavalry was not slow. It only took a day before the Qi State Army’s cavalry arrived in Fuzhou City.
When Liu Lin saw the soldiers and horses on the head of the city of Fuzhou, the stone that had been in his heart finally fell. Although there are many defenders on the head of Fuzhou City, they have not reached the level of terror. Obviously, there are no other reinforcements in Fuzhou.
Since the city of Fuzhou had no reinforcements, Liu Lin was not in a hurry to attack the city. Moreover, he had all cavalry under him, so he was not suitable for attacking the city. After camping outside the city and resting for a day, the Southern Song Army led by Zhang Jun and Liu Guangshi also hurriedly arrived.
Seeing the situation on the head of Fuzhou City, Zhang Jun also let go, at least this shows that his plan has not been exposed. As for the county town, Zhang Jun also attributed his previous actions to the fact that the officials in Fuzhou had been aware of it, so he didn't go any further.
Even so, Zhang Jun and Liu Lin did not relax their vigilance. At least now, the intelligence of their sneak attack is very likely to be sent to Jiangling by the leader of Fuzhou. Everything must be decided quickly, and Fuzhou must be completely taken down before the reinforcements from Jiangling arrive.
Therefore, the coalition army only rested all night, and under the urging of Zhang Jun and Liu Lin, the helpless Liu Guangshi took his army to attack Fuzhou City aggressively.
On the head of Fuzhou City, looking at the tens of thousands of troops outside the city, Wu Heilong and Li Tao both had sullen faces. The plan made before did not go very smoothly. In a hurry, wanting to concentrate the entire force of Fuzhou is not as simple as talking about it.
Nowadays, there are only less than four thousand troops gathered in the city of Fuzhou. Now the enemy has arrived, and even if the remaining reinforcements arrive, they cannot enter the city. The only thing that can be expected is that the reinforcements from Jiangling will arrive quickly.
Wu Heilong and Li Tao glanced at each other, and then Wu Heilong bowed their heads and said to Li Tao: "Li Tao. According to your lord’s instructions, we must hold Fuzhou City for more than ten days. Now it seems that with so many enemies outside the city, we have to It’s not that easy to defend Fuzhou City. What good do you have?"
