Wang Jingyin stood beside the big sand table in his Shenzhou Xingyuan, thinking about those headache problems, and for a while, he felt helpless.

"Lieutenant Marshal!" A tooth soldier cautiously walked up to him and said softly, "General Wang Jingyi, the envoy of the Boye Army, has been ordered to come back. ”

Wang Jingyin hummed absentmindedly, didn't look back, and his eyes were still staring at the entire sand table. Shenzhou is located in the northeast of the town of Chengde, Zhao, Hebei and Ding, and is surrounded by four states from three directions: southeast and west. To the north of the Deep State is the state of Chan, and further north is the state of Mo.

Shenzhou is a strategic location in Chengde Town, which connects the other four states, and the Hutuo water passes through Zhenzhou from the east of the river, then passes through the southernmost part of Dingzhou into Shenzhou, and flows into the Yingzhou River, passing through Mozhou. In addition, there are two large rivers that run through almost the entire Hebei Province to the east of Shenzhou, Zhangshui and Yongji Canal of the North Canal, plus four tributaries that cross the three states of Zhendingshen, namely Zishui, Mudaogou, Lushui and Huangshui, from west to east. Shenzhou can be said to be the gateway to the central region of Hebei.

Not long ago, Tian Lingzi held the Son of Heaven hostage and attacked Yang Fugong. The Tang Dynasty, which fled to Chengdu, was in civil strife, and the two eunuch groups of Tian Lingzi and the Yang brothers broke out in conflict, ready to act at any time. Both eunuchs each had the support of several feudal towns and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. When they were in chaos, the entire world of Datang was shaken.

And at such a moment, the Qin Domain, which had been low-key and silent for a year and a half since the last time he captured the entire Daibei, suddenly woke up again, showed his sharp teeth, and issued an ultimatum to Chengde Town, asking them to surrender to the imperial court within three days. The so-called surrender of the imperial court is actually to make them surrender to Li Jing of the Qin Domain.

This is the last ultimatum. The entire town of Chengde was panicked. Frightened. Many generals proposed to surrender Li Jing. After all, the strength of the Qin domain is obvious to all, Li Keyong, Li Quanzhong and others have been defeated under his hands, since Li Jing entered the customs, has successively annexed Lulong Town, Yiwu Town, Cangjing Town, Datong Town, Yanmen Town, Hebei Hedong Town, five towns, at least not one defeat. Especially in the last battle of Daibei, Li Jing only dispatched a small number of soldiers and horses, and he had already defeated Shatuo and captured two towns in a row. and annihilated 200,000 Hu cavalry in the south.

Even, Wang Jingchong, the former marshal of Chengde Town, and Han Jian, the former marshal of Wei Bozhen, two old marshals who have experienced countless winds and waves, were directly assassinated by Li Jing's assassins.

Now, in Hedong, Hebei, Li Jing's opponents are only Chengde and Wei Bo, and Wei Bo is still in the south, Li Jing suddenly seized this opportunity to face Chengde's opponent, and the timing was too good. There were no reinforcements outside the town of Chengde. The new coach is mourned, and the current marshal is just a ten-year-old child. How to fight with Li Jing?

No one asked Wang Rong's decision, what decision can a ten-year-old child make?

However, at the last moment, Wang Jingyin appeared and rebuked those lords. Wang Jingyin is Wang Jingchong's brother, Wang Jingchong is the son-in-law, and he is the eldest son. Therefore, when Wang Jingchong's father died, the generals of Chengde Town did not have Wang Jingchong to take over the position because Wang Jingchong was too young, but they did not let the older Wang Jingyin take over the position, but let Wang Jingchong's uncle inherit the position. When Wang Jingchong's uncle was seriously ill, he handed over the handsome position to Wang Jingchong. Twice, he was not given the opportunity.

Wang Jingchong was assassinated, and the generals discussed who would inherit the throne, and many people suggested that Wang Rong was too young and should be handed over to Wang Jingchong's uncle's son-in-law to inherit.

For the third time, Wang Jingyin was completely unqualified for the succession to the handsome position.

This time, though, he spoke. As the deputy envoy of Chengde Town, Wang Jingyin stood up and proposed that the nine-year-old Wang Rong be the new commander, and some of the generals were not convinced, Wang Jingyin and his younger brother Wang Jingyi led the tooth soldiers to blockade Zhenzhou Yacheng, and finally forced the rest of the Wang clan and the generals to agree that Wang Jingyin would take over the handsome seal.

After Wang Rong took over the handsome seal, Wang Jingyin, who was his uncle, continued to serve as the deputy envoy, and then his younger brother Wang Jingyi served as the military envoy of Boye, and promoted a group of officers, reused the two henchmen, and actually controlled Chengde Town.

The Qin Domain's ultimatum told Chengde Town to surrender, and many people were willing to surrender, because the Qin Domain's treatment of obedient and surrendered generals was not bad, which was very different from the treatment of captured surrenders. And Wang Rong, the new festival commander, no one cares about him, not only because he is small, but also because he is just a puppet. Because Wang Jingyin is only a concubine, he has no chance to be a handsome position. That is why he strongly opposed the succession of his uncle's adult son-in-law, and instead advocated the succession of his nephew, who was only ten years old.

At the critical moment, Wang Jingyin stood up again and said no loudly.

The generals can descend, and if they do, they may be even richer in the future. Even his nephew Wang Rong can surrender, because he is just a child and has the title of marshal, if he surrenders, although Li Jing will not give him the right anymore, but wealth is indispensable in his life.

Only he, Wang Jingyin and Wang Jingyi, are the two brothers who are different, they are the actual controllers of Chengde Town, but they don't have that name. If Chengde is surrendered, Li Jing will definitely not tolerate them staying in order to control Chengde Town. No matter what, they will never demote Li Jing.

Although many generals were worried about his decision, now that Chengde Town was under his control, there was nothing they could do.

As soon as the three days passed, the Qin army could attack south at any time.

Wang Jingyin refused to surrender, but he also knew the consequences of this. After refusing to surrender, Wang Jingyin had already begun to mobilize German soldiers and horses to garrison the front line on the one hand, and on the other hand, he went to forcibly recruit young and strong people into the army, and sent people to ask Wei Bo and Li Keyong for help.

The main defense plan of Chengde Town is to gather heavy troops to defend in Shenzhou, and to defend the two big rivers of Hutuoshui and Zhangshui. Then he transferred a group of troops and horses to Dingzhou, relying on the Taihang Mountain and various east-west rivers to cross the deep river of Zhending, and intercept the Qin army.

To fight, especially if the Qin army wants to go south to fight, the route they choose must be the Great Road. Although the two major rivers of Hutuoshui and Zhangshui will freeze in winter, there is also a flat avenue along the two major rivers, which is suitable for the rapid transportation of soldiers, horses, grain and grass.

Wang Jingyin is also a veteran of the battlefield, and he first participated in the Pang Xun Rebellion in Xuzhou, and he has fought a lot in recent years. His plan for the Qin army's attack was predicted that the Qin army's army would move south along the three major rivers of Hutuoshui, Zhangshui, and Canal, and come straight to Shenzhou.

Shenzhou has already begun to prepare for the defense of the city, the Qin army is very strong, Wang Jingyin, who has fought with the Qin army more than once, knows very well, but if it is a defense battle this time, then they may not be able to fight. First of all, it was winter, and the powerful naval divisions of the Qin army were completely useless, and they could not enter the inland rivers from the sea to support the war. Second, the strongest cavalry of the Qin army is still cavalry, and the second is artillery, but the cavalry is powerful in the field, and the siege will not work. As for the artillery of the Qin army, although they once defeated 30,000 Hu cavalry with only a few thousand artillery, he inquired clearly, in that battle, Li Jing used up hundreds of thousands of catties of gunpowder in a while, which was almost a few years' output. Although the Qin army has not fought in the Guannei for more than a year, the war outside the Guanguan has not stopped, and the Qin army's artillery is either artillery but not medicine, and if it is not formed, it is almost useless. Moreover, it is winter, wet and cold, rainy, snowy, frosty and dewy season, and in such a season, the artillery is most susceptible to moisture and cannot be used.

On the contrary, they fought a defensive battle this time, and Shenzhou, as an important town at the gateway to Chengde, has been continuously strengthened for more than a hundred years, and the city is strong. And defensive battles, there is already an advantage, and when the time comes, the people can be recruited to defend the city. In addition, he believed that Wei Bozhen would not sit idly by and die without help. Wei Bo and Chengde had cold lips and teeth, and the Qin army went south, if Chengde was defeated, Wei Bo would not be able to survive alone. Moreover, the Qin army is still fighting in the northeast, and I heard that the continuous battles of the Qin domain in the past few years have also suffered a great loss of vitality, and even if the Qin army attacks, it will not be able to attack with all its strength. Therefore, as long as they fight with all their might, this is not necessarily a defeat.

Shenzhou City has been put under martial law and is fully prepared for war.

"Raoyang County has been lost!" Wang Jingyi strode into the wheel, untying his rain-soaked cloak and saying angrily.

"How is that possible?" Wang Jingyin raised his head in surprise, his spies had already been sent to the Yingzhou River, the soldiers and horses of the Qin army had not gone south at all, how could Raoyang County be lost? Raoyang County is the northernmost county seat in Shenzhou, east of Hutuoshui.

"The Raoyang County Order and the Raoyang Regiment Training Envoy directly changed the flag and announced that they would abandon the darkness and surrender to the light, and surrender to Li Jing." Wang Jingyi took a large glass of warm wine and took a sip, exhaled a long breath of wine, and the whole person finally felt much more comfortable.

Wang Jingyin knew that Raoyang County was a useless guy, but he didn't expect that even Raoyang's training envoy was a coward. These two people are not their henchmen, but they didn't have time to replace them for a while, but they didn't expect that these two guys actually directly connected and surrendered to the Qin army. Damn, before the war started, there was already a basin of ice water on his face. His face was hot, and he scolded loudly: "Bastard, fuck, such a shameless person, he should have withdrawn a long time ago, chopped off his head and fed the dogs." Damn, as soon as they fell, the morale of this army had already dropped by half before the battle. Pass on the commander's military order, send a team of soldiers and horses, immediately go to Raoyang, chop these two traitors with knives, and come to see them! ”

Wang Jingyi glanced at the sand table in the hall, saluted Wang Jingyin, and said, "Big brother, Raoyang can be lost, but Anping must not be lost." ”

Raoyang is in the east of the Hutuo River, but Anping, which is very close to Raoyang, is in the west of the Hutuo River, and it is also the confluence of the Mudaogou, Lushui and other rivers and the Hutuo River, from here it is very convenient to not recognize whether it is to Dingzhou or to Zhenzhou.

Wang Jingyin was hit by a word, and said with a wry smile: "Even so, you can calm the small city and stick to it." I mean, this time we're going to fight to the death with the Qin people, and we have to prepare for the worst. Therefore, we have to concentrate on holding on to those big cities, as for those small cities, we should give up, but we can't give up in vain, we must first transfer the money, food and population in the city, and then leave an empty city for the Qin people. In the last battle of the Qin army's Daibei, the Jincheng Defensive Battle and the Yunzhou Defensive Battle were two completely different laws. Zhang Yu, the defender of Jincheng, divided his troops to guard each pass and each city, but was defeated by the Hu people after the most defeat. On the contrary, the Yunzhou guards adopted the method of abandoning the surrounding areas and concentrating on defending a city in Yunzhou, and as a result, more than 10,000 defenders in Yunzhou blocked the onslaught of 100,000 Hu soldiers.
