Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 553
Talking about both ends, the fighting in Huainan is also at a fever pitch at this time.

As Lu Qian said, the main battlefield has been understood, and the next thing to look at is Huainan and Jiangnan.Let's see if the Liangshan Army in Huainan can completely drive the Western Army across the river; see if the Manichaean Army with "vigor" can withstand this last juncture.

——If the Jiangning Mansion is captured by the Western Army, even though the Manichaeism is still strong, it will be in decline.

However, due to time constraints, Lu Qian has not received the letter from Yang Zhi. He only knows Huainan, where the Liangshan Army and the Western Army are fighting fiercely.

The latter's Western Army general was Yang Weizhong.The Huainan Army's combat target can be said to be an old hen turned into a duck, and its combat power is naturally different from the past.However, the main force of the Western Army is located in the south of the Yangtze River, where there are few elite soldiers.

And the Huainan Army has already completed its renewal at this time, and Chao Gai's men are still the same as the original Song Jiang Army, and they are also strong and talented.The two sides are fighting now!
Readers all know that King Lu betrayed Manichaeism with ill intentions.Let the Song army occupy the corner of Huainan, and have a barrier to fight across the river.At that time, King Lu only hoped that both sides could kill and hurt both sides, so he quietly gave convenience to the Western Army.

But now it's another story.

The defeat in Taiping Prefecture caused the Manichaeism to suffer a lot, followed by Jiangning Mansion's head-to-head confrontation, and Fang La continued to bleed.The Manichaeists would not just guard a Jinling city and watch the Western army besiege them.

For a series of strategic locations on the periphery, neither side knows how many times they fought for it.

Such a head-to-head confrontation is naturally difficult for the Manicheans.He was killed by the Western Army a month or two earlier, and last month he was surrounded by the Western Army from east to west, north, south, and north. He has already tended to be at a disadvantage in this battle to defend Jinling.

Now Lu Qian naturally wants to help the Yue family, and in turn make things difficult for the Western Army, so as to relieve the pressure on the Jiangning Mansion.That Zhang Shun has led the inland water army to Yangzhou.Yang Zhi's department is also a mob soldier with a history of horses, always ready.But Lu Qian still hoped that the Manichaeism could stand up by itself!

In this way, the fight in Huainan was not false at all.

The battle of Huainan centered on Lujiang.Chao Gai had many soldiers and generals, and he took back the Wuwei army early, swept Shucheng and Tongcheng, and took all the important cities around the Lujiang River.

Lujiang is an isolated city, the walls of which have been knocked down in many places, and the Western Army can't be said to be incapable of fighting if it persists for nearly a month.

However, the Western Army in Jiangning Mansion did not return their reinforcements, and Niu Gao's defeat even affected Liu Guangguo's Ministry in Jiangzhou, leaving Jiangzhou empty.As soon as the Lujiang River was broken, the Huainan Army could seize Shuzhou, Qizhou, and even Huangzhou.

The latter is the Huanggang of later generations. As one of the two nightmares of the post-80s student era, many people are familiar with this place.On the other side of the river is Wuchang, of course it is Wuchang in this era, but if you go west from Wuchang, you will find Jiangxia, Ezhou, which will be the great Wuhan of later generations.

And Jiangzhou is between Qizhou and Shuzhou.

There is only one newly formed army left there, if Yang Weizhong is defeated, how can he withstand the Huainan army's attack?
You know, this is the material and food base of the Western Army.

All the money, food, and armor used by the army piled up in Jiangning Mansion should all come from here.If the Huainan Army captured Jiangzhou, the main force of the Western Army would suffer.The Western Army distributed along the Yangtze River is a long snake, and Jiangzhou is its seven inches.

Therefore, if you want to say who is most concerned about the Huainan war now, it is Cai Dezhang in Jiujiang.Relying on his father's influence, and taking advantage of his position as a hall official in Jiangzhou, this guy got the job of allocating food, grass and military supplies in this battle, and he has been doing it up to now.Therefore, the official hat of the envoy made along the Jiangnan West Road along the river was worn on his head early.Although this official position is more important than the one who can't appease, it has undoubtedly brought him to a higher level.

Therefore, Cai Dezhang's pros and cons have been tightly tied to the Western Army.If Fang La is successfully extinguished, he will be able to advance to another level.

"I intend to send the Mu brothers to reinforce Lujiang. What do you think?" Cai Dezhang couldn't make up his mind, otherwise how could he call Huang Wenbing to discuss.Although the latter had a good relationship with him, Cai Jiu even took the opportunity to give Huang Wenbing a hand to make his "general judge" worthy of the name. Of course, he also received Huang Wenbing's tribute.But Huang Wenbing is by no means his dog-headed military advisor.

The latter's identity at the moment is an official, Cai Dezhang's subordinate officer.This is discussing business.

Huang Wenbing died miserably in the original novel of the Water Margin, which can be described as an indelible black spot in the eyes of "anti-Water Margin" people.It is also a case that proves that the so-called "Liangshan heroes" are a group of "anti-humanity" who cannibalize people.

Others say that although Huang Wenbing is a villain in the novel, if you think about his deeds carefully, he is a great loyal and good man in the Song Dynasty.This person never forgets his work in life, listens to nursery rhymes, and finds anti-poems; he has strong reasoning ability, and can deduce from nursery rhymes that Song Jiang, who wasted money for the country and family, and employed weapons and waterworks;In fact, he was a rare and excellent detective in the Song Dynasty, but he died in the line of duty in the end, and his whole family died. His death was epic.

It can be said that it is in sharp contrast with other "positive" civil servants.For example, Dean Dai Zongdai who forcibly took bribes and liaised with Liangshan; Ruda Rutiha who sat down to drink tea when he saw Shi Jin, a wanted criminal of the court; ..., the truth is true and the false is false!
"Wen Bing thinks it's feasible." Huang Wenbing thought for a while before opening his mouth.

Cai Dezhang was taken aback. He had asked many people in the past two days, and he was not the first to agree to aid Lujiang, but he was the most straightforward and clear-cut one who held this view.

"In the past two days, I have heard many people asking about this matter. Wen Bing has thought about it for a long time and thinks it is true." Huang Wenbing is a flatterer, but not a person without talent.It is common to have both moral integrity and ability.

"The gains and losses of the Lujiang River there are related to the safety of our Jiangzhou. If the Lujiang River is safe, Jiangzhou will be as stable as Mount Tai; if the Lujiang River falls into the hands of bandits, how can our soldiers in Jiangzhou be able to protect it?"

"The villain thinks that it is better to prepare early, and recruit fishermen as water warriors in case of emergencies; while choosing brave generals, lead troops across the river to help. Even if you can't enter the Lujiang River, you can still contain the Huainan bandits on the periphery. One or two. Mr. Xianggong can let the Xijun know the truth, right?"

Cai Dezhang was silent for a while, and said: "If you want Jiangzhou to be stable, you only need to have the navy and army back. It's just that the situation in Jiangning is urgent now, so don't dare to lose the big because of small things."

The entire Zhao and Song courts were counting on the Western Army to take down the Jiangning Mansion, so that everyone could take a breather.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xiang. There is a way to think big and start small. Wen Bingsu asked Xianggong and Liu Menglong and Liu Dutong. Why don't you write a letter and ask some capable generals to rectify Jiang Fang. "

Cai Jiu applauded.

　An emergency, I am accompanying you in the hospital..., the update will be reduced in these two days
