Bright Spring

After waiting for more than an hour, the generals from all over the place finally arrived one after another.Zhang Fu picked up Gu Cheng's big seal, and slapped it on the table with a "bang", causing all the generals to look sideways.Zhang Fudao: "The Marquis of Zhenyuan is ill, and has handed over the military power of the Guizhou Army to my general."

No one doubted it.After all, Gu Cheng is not dead yet, so it can be confirmed by sending someone to ask casually about this kind of thing.

"The night before yesterday, the Ministry of Security of the rebel army raided the important grain storage area of ​​the Guizhou army and burned a large amount of military food. You should know about this." Zhang Fu said coldly, then turned his head and asked, "Where is there any food storage nearby?"

An unfamiliar general of the Guizhou Army said: "I am reporting to the British Lord, the chief general of the Kunming garrison is Sheng Yong. Before the arrival of the official army, this man implemented the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the country. When they arrived, they burned them on the spot! Now, apart from the only remaining rations in the army, there is also a granary in Qujing’s military and civilian mansion. But now that the 20 army is consumed, it may not last long; unless the city of Kunming is captured, there is food in it!"

As soon as this remark came out, the big tent immediately became noisy, and all the generals talked about it.Some people worry that even if the city of Kunming is breached, the military rations in Kunming might be burned with Sheng Yong's methods!Some people think that the main force of the rebel army may march into Yunnan after the city of Guizhou is destroyed; although the official army has 20 troops, it may not be possible to break through the city before the main force of the rebel army reaches Kunming.

Zhang Fu finally couldn't help but said, "How about marching to Guangxi?"

Everyone's discussion stopped again, and the atmosphere in the big tent was very strange.

Zhang Fu remained calm, looking at the faces of the generals of the Guizhou Army one by one.They also seem to be quietly observing Zhang Fu, thinking about Zhang Fu's real intention.The big tent became more and more quiet.

The officers and soldiers of the Guizhou Army were not familiar with Zhang Fu. Although Zhang Fu had military power, he had just taken over, so it was difficult for him to fully control the army.Zhang Fu didn't even know the names of most of the generals of the Guizhou Army.

...Before this battle, Zhang Fu was worried, so he was relatively calm.Now seeing the situation of the war going from bad to worse, his feeling of loss is inevitable.

However, as a general in charge of the army, he has already reached a certain field, so he has to face reality!

So far, the main force of the three routes of the government and the army has not suffered too much loss; it's just that the situation in front of them is very unbearable!Zhang Fujun is extremely short of food, and Guizhou is not only short of food, but may also defect (all the families of the soldiers are in Guizhou).Zhang Fu didn't believe Wu Gaojun's failure to fight.

Under such an unfavorable situation in the battle, Zhang Fu believes that the most sensible course of action is: not to fight.And wait for new fighters to appear.

Otherwise, Zhang Fu had to foresee all kinds of worse endings when he started a war with the rebels in Yunnan: First, Wu Gao's army was unable to reach the battlefield for a long time.The second is that the morale of the Guizhou army is low and it is easy to surrender.The third is that although the Shengyong Ping'an Army in Yunnan has a small number of troops, it can still play a certain role.

Originally, Zhang Fujun was at a disadvantage against the main force of the Hanwang army alone; once the Guizhou army surrendered, Zhang Fu was not only completely at a disadvantage, but also whether the Guizhou army would attack him in turn is still difficult to determine!

The general who leads the army cannot ignore the danger!Zhang Fu was even worried that it would not be easy for him to even retreat...

If the main force of the rebel army of the King of Han goes south along the main road between Guizhou and Guangxi, it is very likely to cut off the food road for Guangxi to reinforce Zhang Fu and intercept Zhang Fu's army!Guizhou and Guangxi main roads extend from Guizhou City to the southeast. It is reasonable that Wu Gaojun can threaten the flanks of the rebels and prevent the rebels from going south.But is Wu Gao so reliable?

The more serious possibility is that if the soldiers of the Guizhou Army are to be mobilized to abandon their families and go to Guangxi, will the Guizhou Army mutiny?

But in any case, Zhang Fu felt that he must find a way to transfer the Guizhou Army away!Otherwise, Guizhou will become the second Sichuan, and the guards of the entire capital will rebel and become soldiers of the rebel army of the King of Han!In the next battle, Zhang Fu will face a stronger rebel army!

At this time Zhang Fu finally said: "Our army is short of food, and we can't last long in Yunnan. We have to go to Guangxi to eat immediately. After replenishing the army rations, our 20 troops will go north along the main road, join forces with Wu Gao's army to attack the rebels, and retake the army. Guizhou!"

The generals of Zhang Fujun agreed one after another.Some of the generals of the Guizhou Army remained silent, while some questioned the strategy, because the main road in Guizhou and Guangxi has many mountains and is not conducive to the mobilization of troops.

The worries of the generals of the Guizhou Army are not unreasonable, but Zhang Fu will never admit it, he wants to transfer the Guizhou Army first, so as not to cause the enemy and us to ebb and flow!

He couldn't say anything, and said decisively: "The camp will start tomorrow! Go to Guangxi immediately, and the commander will contact the Marquis of Jiangyin and ask him to join forces to attack the rebels!"

So all the generals clasped their fists together and said: "The last general waits for orders!"

Everyone left the big tent of the Chinese army one after another, and Zhang Fu sent the generals outside the tent door, looking at the misty rain in the sky.And in the depths of the rain curtain, the Kunming city, which is all within easy reach, seems out of reach.He felt very sad.

He couldn't help feeling a little bit secretly, the world is really unpredictable and unpredictable.

At the beginning of the King of Han's army, Zhang Fu believed that the King of Han had no chance at all, and his strength was too small.However, only half a year has passed, and the situation has changed beyond recognition.

"Master." A voice said.

Zhang Fu turned his head, saw that it was Huang Zhong, and said, "You are from Guangxi, immediately find a few reliable brothers, go to Guangxi first, and then go north to Guizhou. Send a letter to Guangxi Dusi and Wu Gao!"

Huang Zhongbai said: "The final general will do it immediately."

Chapter 434 Kindness

In the southwestern direction of Guizhou, on both sides of the official road leading to the chief envoy of Yunnan, there are many mountains and rocks; the road in the middle is full of dust.

If you watch from several miles away, you can also see the movement on the road.The scene was like a big dragon suddenly appearing in the mountains, shaking the ground upside down!It was like a landslide erupted, and muddy sand and dust rose into the sky along the mountains.

This army is the vanguard of the King of Han's army, but the number of soldiers and horses is not too large.They set off from Guizhou City and were marching along the post road towards the Chief Envoy of Yunnan.The military generals ordered to hang branches behind the baggage vehicles; the branches were dragged on the dirt road, and the movement was particularly loud.Looking at the smoke from a distance, it looks like a huge army.

……

Among the mountains to the northeast of Guizhou City, there are several flat places, where military tents are everywhere, and countless tents are arranged horizontally and vertically, forming large military camps.This is the main force of the King of Han army!

The name of this place is Xiaoba, and there used to be the Weisuo army of the capital of Guizhou.The mountains on all sides are not high, but they occupy a large area, and the mountains are full of dense forests!

People coming in from the official road of "Ruhuguang Road" have to go through two sections of winding valley roads; after walking for more than a mile, they can only find people and horses here after passing through the mountains and forests and approaching the small dam.

Starting from Xiaoba and heading southwest, there is another road that can join the Guandao Road; and take this road to the Post Road Road, the distance is nearly three miles.

And Zhu Gaoxu's Zhongjun Xingyuan, at this time, is located in a temple in a mountain forest to the south of Xiaoba, close to the Guandao Road.

The temple is surrounded by pines and forests, and there is a stone path up the mountain, leading to the gate of the temple.As long as the soldiers of the Chinese army walk out of the back door of the temple and come to a piece of granite behind the temple, they can clearly see the road leading to the small dam.

If Wu Gaojun approached Guizhou City along the wide road into the lake, and the army passed by the south of Xiaoba; , The soldiers suddenly launched an attack in two groups, attacking the official road from two mountain roads!

Then, the King of Han Army will immediately cut Wu Gaojun into three pieces!Wait for the reinforcements from the King of Han from Guizhou to come, first attack and destroy the enemy's front army in the west; in the end, at least most of Wu Gao's army will be eaten!

Such a scene is exactly what the generals of the King of Han Army are looking forward to!

... In such a remote temple, there are actually two monks, one old and one young.The soldiers did not harm them, but put them under house arrest in a fasting room.

"Tu, du, du..." The monk was still beating on the wooden fish, they seemed to have no interest in fighting in the world.The sound is uniform and very boring, and it makes people feel alive and lifeless when they hear it.

Zhu Gaoxu was in the monk's room, asking Gu Yong about the situation in Guizhou, while listening to the sound of wooden fish.That voice made the mountain forest look even more peaceful.In such a quiet atmosphere, Zhu Gaoxu waited quietly for Wu Gao with murderous intent.

Zhu Gaoxu sat cross-legged on a futon, looked up to see Gu Yong's hands wrapped in white cloth, he asked: "General Gu hates this king?"

Gu Yong was stunned for a moment, standing there not knowing how to answer.

Zhu Gaoxu waited for a while, but he didn't hear the answer, so he said in an unquestionable tone: "This king is very kind. I only cut off one of your fingers, the injured finger, but didn't cut off the whole hand. You have become disabled! General Gu should understand that I only do this for a certain purpose; I will not make people pay a useless price, even if it is a temporary enemy."

When Gu Yong heard the term "temporary enemy", he pondered: "I'm afraid I'm going to offend you. I will never let my father be ashamed just to survive."

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, raised his hand and waved lightly, and said, "I hope General Gu will remember what this king said."

At this time, a general came up and said, "Please, General Gu."

Gu Yong cupped his fists and bowed, turned and left the monk's room.

Zhu Gaoxu also stood up, put his hands on an incense table, buried his head in his thoughts while looking at the map on the table...

A few days ago, the King of Han army captured the city of Guizhou, but Zhu Gaoxu did not immediately go to Yunnan to rescue the besieged city.Because he soon learned that most of Gu Chengjun's rations had been burned.

The battle is not over yet!What lies ahead is to expand the results of the battle, to deal with Wu Gaojun, or Zhang Fujun?Of course Zhu Gaoxu chose Wu Gao in the end, so the army will be deployed in this forest at this time.

Every decision Zhu Gaoxu makes is of course based on various situations and judgments.Rarely for one reason.

All the maps drawn by the army were inaccurate, but Zhu Gaoxu could easily find out: the distance from Guizhou to Kunming was much longer than Zhang Fu’s distance from Kunming to Guangxi Post Road.

At the same time, Zhu Gaoxu believes that Wu Gao should be able to get the news that Guizhou City was breached, after all, the distance is very close; but Wu Gao may not know for a while that Gu Chengjun's army rations were burned.
