Chapter 1261: Victory (Forty-One)

The town of Qinyang is in the east of Zhangzhou City, and it still follows the terrain of Zhangzhou City's mountains and rivers. In the mountainous area, the terrain is still relatively high, even higher than the terrain of Zhangzhou City, and it is also an easy to defend and difficult to attack.

To say that this Qinyang Town, the area is much smaller than Zhangzhou City. It doesn't take more than 50,000 people to surround this Qinyang Town.

However, if you compare that Zhang Zhoucheng to a thin wine bottle, that Zhang Zhoucheng is the mouth of the bottle, and this Qinyang Town is the junction between the neck of the wine bottle and the belly of the wine bottle. In other words, the terrain between the mountains and rivers has become a plain from Qinyang Town to the east. And that Zhenping Mansion is on this great plain.

Therefore, this Qinyang Town and Zhangzhou City are the main roads for the Zhenping Mansion to enter the west. Without this long and narrow passage, Zhenping Province would have to make a detour to the south when it enters the west.

And such a terrain has also made Zhangzhou City and Qinyang Town a western pass.

Zhang Zhoucheng has been taken, and the spirit of the Tatar army has also been thwarted. Liu Yong naturally wanted to think about this attack on Qinyang Town. Qinyang Town is nearly twenty miles away from that Zhangzhou City, and Liu Yong feels that it is necessary to establish a military camp between Zhangzhou City and Qinyang Town, with Zhangzhou City as the supply rear, and the military camp as a transmission and gathering point, and then attack that Qinyang Town.

However, Liu Yong also knew that the defense of Qinyang Town must be very tight. Not to mention anything else, the Tarnu army alone who came to recapture Zhangzhou City had 200,000 people. Once it is retreated to Qinyang Town, it is indeed difficult to attack.

Moreover, this attack on Qinyang Town is just this passage. Speaking of the south, Huangzhou City is still in the southwest of Qinyang Town. If the city of Huangzhou is broken, it is natural to march to the northeast and directly attack Zhenping Mansion.

Therefore, at the moment, only this road can attack that Qinyang Town, and once it is defeated, that Zhenping Mansion will be within its own attack range. thus posing a threat to the capital of the Great Yang Dynasty.

Liu Yong looked at the terrain and thought of some solutions, but thanks didn't work. In the end, I had to decide to attack with the most direct passage from Qinyang Town to Zhangzhou City.

However, this is a hard-fought battle. The so-called knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, Liu Yong felt that it was better to figure out the defense situation of Qinyang Town first.

Now, according to General Cao Wen's recitals, the Tatar army that intended to recapture Zhangzhou City has not yet withdrawn to Qinyang Town, which means that the danger of Zhangzhou City being recaptured still exists.

Liu Yong thought in his heart, let's wait and talk about it first. When the movement of the Tarnu army is clear, you can study the strategy of attacking the town of Qinyang.

However, Liu Yong also had some ways in his heart at this time, and he had to listen to the opinions of Wu Qing and General Cao Wen again.

After reading for a while, Liu Yongyou walked back to the bookcase and sat down, he didn't speak, he thought intently. And Lin Qingrou and the others didn't bother. quietly withdrew from the flower hall, leaving only two palace daughters and two eunuchs.

Liu Yong thought about the strategy of attacking Qinyang Town, because he was concentrated, and when he came back to his senses, Lin Qingrou and the others had already withdrawn from the Little Flower Hall.

"They're all gone?" Liu Yong asked the little eunuch beside him.

The little eunuch bowed down and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, the queen and all the ladies will not bother when they see Your Majesty contemplating and thinking, so they will retreat." ”

Listening to the little eunuch's words, Liu Yong nodded. casually picked up a military book and looked at it. During these days, Liu Yong read a lot of military books. In order to fight, it is not fast to sharpen the gun.

In fact, these military books did not help Liu Yong much. But it can also give him some inspiration.

At this time, Liu Yong was looking at the art of war while thinking about the Tatar army in his mind, and he didn't know when the Tatar army that intended to recapture Zhangzhou City would be able to withdraw to Qinyang Town.

Liu Yong's heart was at a point in time, that is, when the Tatar army that seized the city withdrew to Qinyang Town, that is, when the Han army began to attack Qinyang Town.

And at this moment, the retreating Tatar army camp was filled with a dead air. The soldiers of the Tatar army hugged each other in clusters, and each one was silent, and the whole barracks was like a large mourning hall, but there was only a lack of mournful cries.

General Nalunta is discussing with the generals in the big tent of the Chinese army, will he still attack Zhangzhou City!

"You all talk about it, anyway, what General Ben means is that instead of attacking Zhangzhou City, which is not easy to fight, it is better to defend Qinyang Town. In this way, the losses of our army will not increase any longer. General Narenta also said weakly.

This dead air will spread, and now it has spread to the big tent of the Chinese army.

The generals below are you look at me, I look at you, and they don't know how to choose. In fact, their hearts were inclined to give up attacking Zhangzhou City. Because they have all seen that this attack on Zhangzhou City will increase some casualties, and there is no possibility of capturing Zhangzhou City at all.

However, this recapture of Zhangzhou City is also the will of the Holy Lord, and they are not in charge as deputy generals.

At this time, a thin box of Tatar army generals stood up and said: "General, the stakes are so high at this time, we can't make the decision. I also ask the general to play the saint, so that the saint can make a good decision. ”

Listening to this general's words, the other generals also said yes.

The general of Nalunta thought for a while and said, "No, I, Lunta, am the general, so I naturally have the right to make decisions." Do you only say that you are attacking Zhangzhou City, or are you withdrawing to Qinyang Town. ”

Since the general said this, the bearded general below stood up again and said to the general of Nalunta: "General, my subordinates feel that they still want to recapture that Zhangzhou City. Isn't it often said that the Han people fight for a breath, and the Buddha fights for a stick of incense. We must take back that Zhang Zhou City to increase our morale. Besides, although Qinyang Town can be guarded here, and Zhenping Mansion can also be protected, this protection is naturally inferior to those two protections. ”

Listening to the words of this bearded general, the tent of the Chinese army immediately became dead. General Renta saw that no one supported the bearded general's suggestion.

General Lenta smiled, smiled bitterly, and then said, "Well, who else agrees with him?" ”

The generals on both sides below were silent, that is, they did not agree.

The general of Narenta asked the bearded general and said, "Then let me ask you, are you sure that you will recapture Zhangzhou City?" ”

Listening to General Narenta's question, the bearded general shook his head.
