Eight hundred and seven wars without suspense
When Wu Ban got Wu Yi's news, it was already mid-May, and at this time, he and Gan Ning had also played a high battle loss ratio, and both sides were a little tired.
So Wu Ban simply retreated, retreated to the garrison of Quren County, and handed Liu Zhang's letter to Gan Ning before leaving.
Gan Ning was relieved to see that Wu Ban had retreated, and sent someone back to report the news.
The person who saw this letter was naturally not Liu Cong, Liu Cong didn't know anything now, he was being delayed by a lot of boring government affairs, and all sources of information were blocked by the people around him, and it was Kuai Yue and Cai Mao who saw the letter.
"At this point, Liu Jiyu actually still has illusions, it seems that he really thinks that he can resist Wei Tianzi's army by relying on the terrain of Yizhou."
Kuai Yue sneered, set Liu Zhang's letter on fire, and burned it.
"What are you going to do? Once the Wei army comes, shall we surrender or not? ”
"Surrender is definitely going to surrender, but Jingzhou is not the only one of us who wants to surrender, Huang Zu will definitely not surrender, Han Song will not surrender, Wang Wei and Su Fei may not surrender, these people have the right to fight, the power is not small, let's rush to surrender, they may not agree."
Kuai Yue pondered: "And it's not the first time that Han Song has come to ask me about the movement of the Wei army in Nanyang in the past few days, and Huang Zu has also repeatedly sent people to Jiangling to test the truth, I feel that we can't hide the news anymore, and now it is not far from the day when Wei Tianzi will do it, we have to let these people lose the confidence to resist." ”
"Nanyang and Xiangyang, I will definitely not defend with Zhang Yun, as soon as the soldiers of the Son of Heaven come, we will inevitably surrender the city, the soldiers of the Son of Heaven will quickly advance to the front line of Xiangyang, directly into Nanjun, Jingzhou will show a situation of defeat like a mountain, at that time, it is estimated that they are unwilling to surrender, and they have to surrender, right?"
When Cai Mao said this, Kuai Yue also nodded.
"This makes sense, under the general trend, no matter how unwilling you are, it is estimated that you will not treat the survival of the family as a trivial matter, and at that time, they can't help but be unwilling, so be it, Huang Zu will definitely die, and others, maybe there is salvation, so ...... What about His Royal Highness the King of Chu? ”
Kuai Yue looked at Cai Mao: "And Mrs. Cai, Deju, what are you going to do?" Mrs. Cai is your sister after all, if His Majesty asks them to go to Luoyang, you ...... Would you like to? ”
Cai Mao pursed her lips and was silent for a while.
"With Meng De in Luoyang, I don't worry about this, I don't know if the Son of Heaven doesn't know that the Emperor of the Han Dynasty also got the title of Duke of Shanyang, and he will live a happy life? I think that as long as His Royal Highness the King of Chu takes the initiative to surrender, the treatment will not be worse than that of the abolished emperor. ”
Kuai Yue nodded.
"It's good that you don't worry, then next, we can wait for the soldiers of the Son of Heaven to come to Jingzhou."
Kuai Yue set his sights on the north, and Cai Mao also set his sights on the north.
Also in mid-to-late May, Guo Peng learned of the truce between Jingzhou and Yizhou through secret agent channels, and realized that the time had come and there was no point in continuing to drag on, so he immediately sent someone to Chen Liu, and gave Guo Jia and Le Jin the order to march into the army.
"The edict of the Son of Heaven ordered the general of Zhengnan Lejin to lead the whole army, march quickly to Nanyang, and attack Jingzhou, there must be no mistake! May 23 of the first year of Yande. ”
The officers of the General Staff Department sent Guo Peng's order and the troop transfer tiger talisman from Luoyang, and Le Jin took out his own troop transfer tiger talisman, and the two tiger talismans were docked and became one, tightly fitted, and there was no problem.
The marching order came into effect, Le Jin led the whole army to fight, and Guo Jia supervised the march of the armies.
"Minister! Obey! ”
"Minister! Obey! ”
Guo Jia and Le Jin knelt on the ground and took the order, turned around and issued the mobilization order for the whole army.
The main force of 50,000 people of the Central Plains Corps of the Wei army began to march in the direction of Nanyang.
The army was divided into three routes.
Le Jin, the general of Zhengnan, led the main force of the Chinese army of 30,000 people, starting from Yingyin County, passing through Ye County, Duyang County and Bowang County, and the goal was Wancheng.
Guo Lie, the commander of the garrison of Runan County, led the left army, set out from Wufang County, Runan County, took Wuyin County, and attacked Wancheng.
Li Gan, the commander of the Yingchuan County garrison, led the right army from Yangzhai County, passed through Luyang County, Pheasant County and Xi'e County, and attacked Wancheng.
Anyway, everyone's ultimate goal is to attack Wancheng and seek the ultimate victory.
So the three-way army marched together and invaded Nanyang County with their heads held high.
At the same time, Zhu Lingjia, the commander of the garrison army of Shangyong County, awarded the post of general of Pingnan, as the deputy commander of the army, and immediately led the army to enter Xiangyang, cut off the retreat of Jingzhou soldiers of Nanyang County from the flank, quickly seized the line from Xiangyang to Nanyang, laid the victory of Jingbei, and joined the main force of Lejin.
Xu Huang, the commander of the Lujiang County garrison, led the Lujiang County garrison to attack Jiangxia County as a guest army, pinning down Huang Zu's main force so that Huang Zu could not intervene in the Jingbei war.
The tactical plan has been issued to the commanding officers of the various armies a few days ago, and the Wei army has been dispatched quickly, and the logistics troops have taken the lead in dispatching, laying the foundation for the Wei army's march along the way, transporting grain and straw, so that the soldiers have no logistical worries.
Le Jin dared to pack a ticket and said that this was the most boring and suspenseless war he had ever fought since he joined the army.
In every respect, this is a war with clear winners and losers.
The three-way army marched together, where they arrived, they surrendered decisively, as if they knew that the Wei army was coming, not only opened the city gate, but also prepared meals, which can be described as eating pot pulp to welcome the king's division, that hot and energetic, really made the Wei soldiers doubt whether they were here to invade Jingzhou.
It seems like a war of aggression, right?
How can you fight like you play at home?
Whether it is Le Jin, Guo Lie, Li Gan, Cao Chun, or Li Dian, they all feel an inexplicable sense of disobedience, and only Guo Jia understands why this is and what is going on.
However, none of this mattered, because they had even prepared food supplies for the Wei army along the way, and the Wei army had been unimpeded all the way, and on May 28, the fourth day after the army was dispatched, Cao Chun, who was the vanguard of the army, had already arrived at the city of Wancheng, and was warmly welcomed by Zhang Yun, the warden of Nanyang County.
When Cao Chun arrived in Wancheng with 3,000 cavalry, he was not very willing to believe that Zhang Yun had given up resistance, he still wanted to be successful, but Zhang Yun really gave up resistance.
None of the 20,000 Jingzhou troops in Nanyang County resisted, all of them unloaded their armor, put down their weapons, and even took the initiative to raise the "Wei" flag at the head of the city, the city gate was wide open, and hot food was piled up on both sides of the city gate, waiting for the Wei army to eat like a buffet.
Zhang Yun even prepared a thousand women to serve the Wei army's iron cavalry galloping on horseback, and Cao Chun and other generals led the military with additional high-quality female services.
Looking at Zhang Yun with a flattering face, Cao Chun was deeply shocked.
Shameless to this point, catering to this point, even if Cao Chun wants to find fault, he can't find it.
