Chapter 314 Changle Town won the first battle
After Mu Qianmei's battle message was issued, the entire Yugu Continent was in an uproar.
Although everyone had a premonition that there would be a war, but seeing that the movement of the Eastern Qin Kingdom was so big, they had not yet issued a battle message, but the Yunyu Kingdom sent it out first, and the reason seemed to be very sufficient, because Qin Siyong's series of actions were all against the will of the people, so they all became the reason for the Yunyu Kingdom to crusade against the Eastern Qin State.
The biggest reason is, of course, to assassinate the visiting group of Yunyu Kingdom to seek peaceful coexistence, even if there is a war, there has always been a clear rule, that is, the two countries are not at war, this is not yet at war, the Eastern Qin State is about to kill the envoy, which has indeed caused public anger.
Although the Eastern Qin State tried its best to deny that they did it, but after the "Yugu Daily" listed a series of recent events, it was clear to everyone at a glance, especially the "Eastern Qin Daily" of the Eastern Qin State also obviously went abroad to make false reports, which has made the Eastern Qin State lose its credibility, and everyone believes that this is an assassination operation of the Eastern Qin State, because in the current Yugu Continent, only they have such strength and motives, so all the people of the Yunyu Kingdom support the Yunyu State and declare war on the East Qin State to seek justice.
Such a large-scale declaration of war was actually issued before the Eastern Qin State, not only the people were surprised, but even Qin Siyong himself was deeply surprised.
Mu Qianmei declared war on him like this?
The assassination of Jiang Yunyi actually became the real fuse of the war between the two countries.
In the Eastern Qin State when the troops were dispatched, the Yunyu State was also dispatching troops, and in more than two months, the armies of the two countries had been deployed on the border, and now after Mu Qianmei's battle document was issued, the armies on both sides were immediately in a state of readiness, and there was a sense of tension that was about to erupt.
The first to attack was the army of Yunyu Kingdom, they set out from Longmen Ancient Town, first quickly occupied Longmen Bridge, and then entered the territory of Eastern Qin State, starting the first battle between the two countries, here is the place where the Yunyu Kingdom delegation was assassinated, and it is here that the crusade of the people and soldiers can be aroused the most.
In ordinary life, they are all reasonable, and they are naturally not afraid to go all over the world.
In war, the most important thing is morale, and in the same balance of forces, the side with high morale is naturally invincible and invincible.
Sometimes, morale is high, and they can even win more with less, and stronger with weak, because they can burst out with much higher potential than usual.
Although it borders the Eastern Qin State, it is relatively remote and far away from the big city, so at the beginning, the troops stationed here on both sides were not much, just to see if there is any abnormality on the border, if there is an abnormality, notify the troops in other places and come to support in time.
Because the two sides did not intend to start a war from here, there were very few garrisons, and after the assassination operation, Mu Qianmei temporarily increased his troops here, because he wanted to thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the assassins, and the troops near here were also fifty or sixty thousand people.
The assassination occurred on the first day, the battle message was issued in the morning of the second day, and the army marched into the Eastern Qin State in the afternoon of the same day, which was almost lightning speed.
The armies of the Eastern Qin State are all concentrated in the big cities, and it is far away from here, and the nearest support will take a day, but Mu Qianmei did not give them this
time.
When the Yunyu Kingdom attacked in, the troops on the side of the Eastern Qin State were defenseless, of course, even if they were prepared, it was pointless, because there were only five or six thousand people stationed here, how could this battle be fought? Therefore, when the army of Yunyu Kingdom came in, they did not resist at all and took the initiative to surrender.
On the side of the Eastern Qin Kingdom, there is also a small town here, called Changle Town, Changle Town is surrounded by mountains and rivers, it is indeed like a paradise like a quiet and beautiful, there is no developed business here, and there are no famous specialties, so it is not rich, but there is a big river flowing from the edge of the town, and close to Longmen Mountain, in addition to the beautiful scenery, planting grain is also a bumper harvest, and it is considered to live a worry-free life.
However, although it is close to Longmen Mountain, Longmen Mountain is not from the Eastern Qin Kingdom, but from the Yunyu Kingdom, and the surrounding areas of Changle Town are actually a large plain area, so grain production can be harvested, there is a river, there is no water, and the plain area is suitable for planting, so the people here can live and work in peace and contentment.
And the big river that flows through here is called Changle River, and it is also a river that divides the border between the two countries, and it is Longmen Ancient Town that crosses the river, which belongs to Yunyu Country, but the river, this side is Changle Town, which belongs to the East Qin Kingdom, a Changle River, which is used by the two countries, and when it needs to be watered, water can be drawn out of this river.
This can be regarded as the two countries drinking the same river water.
The river is about fifty meters wide, and the location of the Longmen Bridge is exactly the narrowest part of the river, so it was chosen to build a bridge there, which is the only bridge that can connect the two countries in the two or three hundred miles up and down the river.
It is precisely because this road is the closest that Jiang Yunyi and his entourage will choose to return from here, and it only took three days to take the carriage, about a thousand miles away.
Now, the person who led the army to occupy this place was Lin Zhiqiu, a general who had been promoted by the beggar gang.
Lin Zhiqiu is considered to be the person personally promoted by Mu Qianmei, so he is grateful to Mu Qianmei, and his loyalty to Yun Yuguo is beyond doubt, and the most important thing is that he is an upright and talented person.
After leading 50,000 or 60,000 people to occupy this place, he did not rush forward and continued to advance, but temporarily stationed in Changle Town, not disturbing the people, but already controlling the entire town.
For those who surrendered, Lin Zhiqiu didn't plan to take them to fight with the Eastern Qin State, but immediately transferred them to Yunyu Country, took them to the domestic military camps and scattered them, and then trained them with recruits, and they would be organized into different units in the future.
After the ancient town of Changle was occupied, Qin Siyong did not immediately send a large army to fight for it, but chose to open up a new battlefield.
There are mainly three main roads in the border area of the two countries that can be passed, so there are three armies on both sides to guard each other, the reason why Mu Qianmei did not launch an attack from that side is because the war over there is a big war, and she doesn't want to enter the big war at the beginning, choosing this side to attack is a good reason, and second, it is easy to win, and a good start is the easiest to stimulate the morale of the soldiers.
Although there was a fight for a while when this side occupied the Longmen Bridge, there were no casualties, and the other party had already surrendered, and the remaining five or six thousand people surrendered without even fighting, which is not counted
How vigorous it is, it can be regarded as very calm, and it is easy to occupy.
However, the outside world didn't know, when it was spread, it was said that after Yunyu Kingdom declared war that day, it quickly occupied a small town in the Eastern Qin Kingdom, and nearly 10,000 people surrendered.
To be honest, it was a great victory to occupy a small town without spending a single soldier or wounding a single person, and to harvest five or six thousand troops.
If you only send five or six thousand people or one or two thousand people to attack, maybe the casualties will be a huge number, that kind of war is not what Mu Qianmei wants, and it is naturally the best choice for you to win without a fight.
The next day, the headline on the front page of "Yugu Daily" was the eye-catching headline "Changle Town's First Battle Victory", focusing on the attack in the afternoon and the rapid occupation at night, the major event exaggerated the brave and good fighting of the soldiers of Yunyu State, General Lin Zhiqiu commanded properly and dispatched well, so he occupied Changle Town, the throat fortress of the Eastern Qin State, and laid a solid foundation for future attacks.
As a result, the people of the whole country rushed to tell each other and share the joy of this great victory.
The news spread to other war zones, whether it was a general or a soldier, they were all excited and excited, it turned out that the Eastern Qin State was not as strong as imagined, Mu Qianmei issued a battle message in the morning, announced the attack in the afternoon, and won the first battle in the evening, with nearly 10,000 descendants, which shows that the battle is also very fierce.
On the other hand, "Dongqin Daily" did not say a word about this.
They didn't mention it, but Yun Yuguo quickly started a new round of free tabloid distribution, and now they have opened a small breakthrough in the Eastern Qin State, and the distribution of tabloids has become much easier, because there are already their own people hidden in the Eastern Qin country, and the Eastern Qin Kingdom's own free tabloids are also very popular, and it is not prominent to be caught in it.
What could cause a sensation was the content in the tabloids that the Eastern Qin State lost the first battle and surrendered nearly 10,000 people.
What Qin Siyong didn't know was that sometimes, the more you wanted to hide the news, the more interested the people became, and the speed of transmission would become.
Some people didn't believe it, and went to the neighborhood to inquire, and the nearby residents actually didn't know how to win the war, and they didn't know how many people surrendered, but this place had indeed been occupied, and the soldiers of the Eastern Qin State here had also surrendered.
The nearby residents told them that the news spread to the entire Eastern Qin Kingdom, and everyone really believed that the content of the tabloids was true.
The non-reporting of "Dongqin Daily" accelerated the spread of the news that Changle Town was occupied, and made the people even more panicked, saying that the Eastern Qin State was strong, but they didn't expect to meet Yun Yu and Mu Qianmei, but they were so vulnerable.
When the news reached Dongqin**, the soldiers were also worried, is the Yunyu army so powerful?
Occupied a town in half a day, and nearly 10,000 people surrendered, because they were all rumors, and I don't know how to fight, but since so many people surrendered, the number of casualties must be quite a lot, so how tragic the battle was!
The fighting spirit of the soldiers was greatly affected, and their morale was also reduced to a minimum.
This is exactly the effect Mu Qianmei wants.
