Jingzhou City. One of the few well-preserved castles in the grasslands.

In the past, it had always belonged to the territory of the Tatars, and it was one of the important towns under the rule of Tokhtambuhua. Until the Battle of Shicheng, he was defeated by Yang Chendong, and with three thousand elites, he was besieged by Yexian first, and finally died in battle, and these cities became ownerless.

He also seized the opportunity first, occupied this place, and became the front line for him to extend his black hand to the first city. But all this is far from over, at the beginning of the year, the Northern Ming Army sent 400,000 troops to the north, south and west, and soon Jingzhou changed hands, became the place of the Northern Ming Army Xuanfu, but soon the situation changed abruptly, the Northern Ming Army Southern Line Datong General Yang Hong was defeated, Wara invited out of the Yili Li, and joined hands with it to the grassland, the Xuanfu soldiers had to retreat in the face of major pressure, and the Jingzhou City changed hands again.

Later, the Warat army led by Ye Xian and the army of Yili combined forces to besiege Shicheng, which became a base for transporting grain and grass in the rear. However, the next attack was on the lair, and the prime minister Alipu had to return to the country, taking the opportunity of the five-star army to launch a counteroffensive and a big battle with the Warat army under the city of Shicheng.

It seems that the battle situation is unpredictable, but as long as you have a heart, you can also see where the opportunities are. For example, Deng Qiang, the eunuch of the Xuanfu Army, is one of the self-proclaimed smart people.

After receiving the order of the eunuch chief Jin Ying, Deng Qiang mobilized the three chief and deputy commanders of Shi Wanshan, Guhe, and Ning Wenfeng to be placed under house arrest by the Jinyi guard, and he also got the power to be in charge of the army. When the defense of Shijo was in full swing, he had been paying attention to the movements of all parties, imagining whether he could find any benefits in it.

For this matter, he took the initiative to find Shi Wanshan and the three people who were under house arrest. Under the general righteousness, the four of them discussed together and finally reached a unified opinion. If the five-star army is defeated in this battle, the Northern Ming army will take Saihan Mountain and make it the gateway to the northwest, protecting the safety of Dalu City; On the other hand, if the five-star army wins, they will have to find a way to take Jingzhou City or Shajing City and regain control of the situation here.

The plan is there, and everything that follows is waiting for news from ahead. After sending countless scouts, the news of the five-star army's all-out counterattack finally came back. Deng Qiang went to see Deng Qiang and the three of them again, and soon the four of them reached a unified understanding, that is, even if the five-star army chose to fight back with all its might, the outcome would soon be decided. And if nothing else, the final winner should be Yang Chendong.

Don't ask why, don't ask what the reason is, Yang Chendong can give people this feeling of confidence. The city had been besieged before, and it was only defended but not attacked, which had already made Shi Wanshan and others puzzled. It is said that with the strength of the Five Star Army in this area, it is absolutely impossible to be so powerless. The current counterattack has proven everything, it's not that the five-star army doesn't have strength, but it's just that it's been waiting for something.

Of course, they didn't know that Yang Chendong was going to use defensive warfare to train his troops, and at the same time, they also wanted to see if there would be any problems with Shicheng's defense. After all, he can't stay here forever, so he has to be aware of everything here.

No matter what Yang Chendong thinks, Deng Qiang is more interested in his own opportunities. Even if everyone said that the Warat army would be defeated, then what he had to do at this time was to send troops to capture Jingzhou City.

Right

Yu Deng Qiang's decision, Shi Wanshan and the three of them all had negative opinions. According to them, the Wara army may be defeated, but after all, there are hundreds of thousands of cavalry, even if it fights with the five-star army, it will not be defeated in one game, and if you send troops to occupy Jingzhou City now, the danger is still very great. It's better to wait and see what happens, and when the five-star army appears, everyone cooperates, the other party goes to attack Shajing City, and they go to attack Jingzhou City, which is foolproof.

The words of Shi Wanshan and the three of them belong to the old city to seek the country, and for Deng Qiang, who is bent on making military exploits, this is not in his interests. He ostensibly agreed to the request of Shi Wanshan and the others, but after leaving the government of Sanbuwa Chuan City, Deng Qiang changed his mind, and he decided to take a risk and take Jingzhou City.

Deng Qiang's thought was very simple, once they could take Jingzhou City and garrison a certain number of troops, even if the defeated Wara army was dissatisfied, he would not waste time here to forcibly attack the city. In this way, the great credit of occupying Jingzhou City will only fall on his own head, so that he will have the opportunity to return to the capital and enter the palace, and the eunuch can only be promoted faster and have more hope of coming out if he works by the emperor's side.

Deng Qiang, who had made a decision, was not carried away by the credit, and the way he chose to take Jingzhou City was to deceive rather than attack, that is, to send people to appear outside Jingzhou City in the name of the labor army.

It can be said that Deng Qiang did make a lot of preparations, and for this reason, he also took out a part of the limited grain and grass in Sanbula Sichuan City and sent it to Jingzhou City. But what he never thought was that when the 10,000 army led by Tengshu was wiped out, Yang Chendong deliberately framed the Northern Ming Army, that is to say, the Warat Army at this moment did not believe in the Northern Ming Army.

Deng Qiang didn't know anything about all this, and when he wanted to use the relationship between the two sides that were allies before to give a heavy blow to the retreating Warat army, it was the other party who made the first move. Under the city of Jingzhou, the Northern Ming army pretended to come out of the labor army, and at the same time as preparing to start, the Wara army general planned and went out of the city with a very happy look, and then the five thousand cavalry who stayed in the city took advantage of the situation to launch an attack, and immediately hit the Xuanfu army by surprise.

The five thousand cavalry did not say hello and rushed rampantly, until the saber fell on the neck of the Xuanfu soldiers, bringing up a stream of blood, Deng Qiang knew that he had once again overestimated the credibility of his opponent, it turned out that this was simply a heartless person, a nation that could kick friendship as a ball at any time and betray allies.

Before the Xuanfu soldiers took out their swords and guns, they became a group of unarmed people, and were killed on the spot by nearly 10,000 people by the 5,000-watt cavalry, and countless people were injured. Deng Qiang, who did not complete the task well, but was hit hard, was very angry, and urgently transferred 30,000 cavalry from Sanbula Sichuan City to come, he didn't believe it, what kind of climate could only become of the Wara army with only 5,000?

It was at this time that more unfavorable news came, the Warat army and the five-star army were defeated after the battle, and their 70,000 main force had retreated to the Shajing area, and its vanguard and the 30,000 cavalry he sent happened to fight together, needless to say, the number and combat power were inferior to the other party, and the Xuanfu soldiers were defeated again. Half of the combat strength of the 30,000 cavalry company

didn't play out, and lost thousands of horses, but in desperation, Deng Qiang had to let go of house arrest, and Shi Wanshan and the three were released, but in the face of such an unfavorable situation, all Shi Zongbing could do was to retreat into the city and prepare to defend the city.

Sanbula Chuan City once again entered a state of defense, but this time it was not the Wara Army besieging the city, it was changed to a five-star army.

The five-star army that followed was the one who really came to pick peaches. When the Wara army retreated to the Shajing area, Yang Chendong also rushed here with tens of thousands of troops from the main force of the Five Star Army, that is, he had just led the troops into Jingzhou City, and he rushed over, and then the Fifth Division of the Sea took out the bazooka brought by the army, and hit the north gate of Jingzhou, which seemed to be in full battle, with several shells.

It is also a siege, and the difference in weapons is destined to have different results. When the city gate opened, the whole division of the first cavalry division of the world surged, waving swords and pouring into the city, and began to kill mercilessly.

That is, after hearing that the North City Gate had been lost in such a short period of time, he knew that something was wrong, leaving the 5,000 cavalry in the original city to defend the city, and then he began to retreat frantically with 70,000 main forces.

In the face of the all-out counterattack of the Five-Star Army, the Warat army was unstable and retreated, not only losing Jingzhou City soon, but also the nearby Shajing City, leaving the area like a lost dog.

Yang Chendong knows the truth that poor people should not chase. He is not yet ready for a decisive battle with the Warat army, in the past few days, the march in the heavy rain has also exhausted the five-star army, that is, the strategic goal has been achieved, and the two cities of Shajing and Zhunju have been occupied, then you must know how to accept it when you see it, stop the pursuit, and digest the fruits of the war first. And during the rest, he did not forget to cuddle the grass and beat the rabbit, and surrounded the city of Sanbulachuan.

Previously, when Wara and Yili joined forces to attack Shicheng, the Northern Ming Xuanfu Army played a very disgraceful role, and now it was time to settle accounts.

Sanbula Sichuan City was besieged again, Shi Wanshan and others in the city couldn't cry or laugh, they thought that the war had a result, that is, they took the opportunity to pick peaches, but everything because of Deng Qiang's rash move, lost all opportunities, not to mention, and now they have become the turtle in the urn.

Although the five-star army outside the city is only forty or fifty thousand people, and there are still 170,000 Xuanfu soldiers in the city, I don't know why, after the opponent became the five-star army, the general soldier Shi Wanshan just couldn't give the order to counterattack. There have been too many facts that prove that the five-star army is powerful and unprovoked, and even if he really dispatches a large army, even if he wins, it will only be a miserable victory. Who knows if the Warat cavalry will come over to pick peaches at that time?

did not go out of the city to set up a formation, but just sent a messenger to send the news out of the city, and asked for help from Shi Heng, the governor of the capital, and then the five-star army and the Xuanfu soldiers confronted each other across the city.

Yang Chendong really didn't mean to attack Sanbula Chuan City, otherwise he wouldn't have given the other party a chance to ask for help. The reason why he did this was nothing more than for the sake of his own big plan, so that he could successfully ascend to the throne.
