The strongest Marquis in history

Yuan Hua responded immediately.

Jiang Ning followed and walked out of the hall.

After the two left the palace together, Jiang Ning looked at Yuan Hua and said in a deep voice: "General, Wang Qi is not easy to deal with. You go to Jiujiang County with His Majesty, so be careful. You and His Majesty's army After arriving, we must wait for Gu Kang's army to arrive. Even when fighting, try to let Gu Kang's army rush to the front, and take this opportunity to weaken Gu Kang's strength."

Yuan Hua held his head high and said loudly: "I don't need to bother the prime minister to worry about the arrangement of this battle. There are a lot of discussions in Wu County, and there are people from Wang Qi who are disturbing the situation. Your immediate task is to remove all these hidden troubles one by one. Drop. The frontline war, I should have my own measure. On the battlefield, I should know a little more than you."

Jiang Ning sighed inwardly.

Yuan Hua is an idiot.

He was just reminding Yuan Hua, but in Yuan Hua's eyes, it became him, Jiang Ning, who wanted to interfere.

Jiang Ning stopped talking, got up and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Yuan Hua looked at Jiang Ning's leaving back and smiled coldly.Yuan Hua is the direct descendant of the Yuan family and controls the entire army of the Chen country. In Yuan Hua's eyes, he is also the master of the Chen country.

Jiang Ning is just an outsider.

Yuan Hua was very displeased with Jiang Ning's interference, and immediately turned back.

With his head held high, Yuan Hua confidently left the palace and went to the barracks to gather the army.In addition, Yuan Hua also arranged to rush to help Han Song's three bowls of troops.Yuan Hua sent the rushing army away and waited in the army.

Half an hour later, Yuan Wei came to the barracks wearing armor and leading a team of imperial guards.

Following Yuan Wei's order, the army set off for Jiujiang County.

Chapter 506: Their Opportunities

Guangling County, outside the city.

The location of Xiao Qingzhi's garrison is flat and open.

During this period of time, Xiao Qingzhi never sent troops to attack Guangling County, and quietly waited for news.According to Xiao Qingzhi and Zhou Zishan's plan, the next step is not only to trap Shi Chong, but also to wait for Yangzhou to respond.

When the army is stationed, in addition to arranging people to sneak into the city on a daily basis, they use psychological tactics to arouse the hearts of the people.In addition, it is to train soldiers.All drills for soldiers, without delay, as usual.

This day, in the morning.

Not long after breakfast, dark clouds covered the top, and it began to rain heavily.

The heavy rain fell, and the raindrops were extremely dense. The dust on the ground was splashed by the rain and kept rising, making the air filled with the smell of mud.The rising smoke is even more misty, and the line of sight is very low.

All the soldiers who were training in the army have already returned to their respective tents to rest.

Xiao Qingzhi was dealing with military affairs when he suddenly heard the sound of raindrops coming from outside the camp. He walked out of the tent directly and stood on the foundation of the tent, watching the heavy rain falling, frowning slightly.

The rain came in a hurry!

Even more late.

Xiao Qingzhi and Zhou Zishan once discussed that there are many rainy seasons in the south of the Yangtze River.In previous years, in Guangling County, during this period of time, the rainy season had already been continuous, and it often rained.However, this summer, although it rained sparsely before, it has not rained since the beginning of summer.

Although Guangling County has a well-developed water system, there is no shortage of water, but it has not rained all the time, and the weather is really abnormal.

Now, it's finally raining.

Just as Xiao Qingzhi was about to return to his camp, he saw Zhou Zishan coming in a hurry in the rain.He ran under the heavy rain, and within a short time, he had already arrived at the entrance of the camp, and entered with Xiao Qingzhi.

Xiao Qingzhi took a handkerchief, handed it to Zhou Zishan to wipe it, and complained: "Military Master, the heavy rain will bring cold air. You should wear a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat so as not to get caught in the rain. Although it is summer, once you catch the wind and cold, If you don't know martial arts, that's not good. Be careful about this matter."

Zhou Zishan said with a smile: "The captain is concerned, I will bear this in mind. But my health is not bad, there is no serious problem."

After a pause, Zhou Zishan said, "The reason why I came is about the rain."

A gleam flashed across Xiao Qingzhi's eyes, and he said, "The military division intends to make use of the rain to make some fuss. It even wants to break the current situation."

"Yes!"

Zhou Zishan nodded.

Xiao Qingzhi asked, "How to plan?"

Zhou Zishan said: "One of my immediate considerations is that this heavy rain is coming, officially announcing that the Guangling County has entered the rainy season. In fact, I have carefully investigated this matter, and it has already rained in Xiapi Country and Donghai County. .”

"Only here in Guangling County, in fact, it has rained in the north of Guangling County. Only in Guangling County, it doesn't rain much. So under the current situation, once it rains, it is very likely that it will continue to rain."

"The county seat of Guangling County has a moat. The water source of this moat is not stagnant water, but running water, which is connected to the river. Right now, we can arrange people to build dams on the upstream river to store water."

"First raise the water level upstream and accumulate a certain amount of river water."

Zhou Zishan said: "When necessary, soldiers will be arranged to open the gates to release water and flood Guangling. In this way, breaking Guangling County will be a breeze."

Xiao Qingzhi thought for a while and said, "We can make some arrangements!"

Xiao Qingzhi agreed with the flooding plan.After all, at the moment, although the hearts of the people in Guangling City are floating.Even so, with Shi Chong's army in command, the common people dare not make mistakes.

Even the latest news came out that Shi Chong and Han Song teamed up to slaughter the big clans in the city, constantly searching for money and food.Although the big families in the city wanted to resist, they were killed before they could resist.

After all, Shi Chong is extremely powerful.

No one can resist.

In the entire Guangling County, there were complaints, and they were extremely resentful towards Shi Chong.But even so, it can't change the fact that Shi Chong still controls Guangling County.

"Report!"

At this moment, shouts came from outside the tent.

A soldier entered, he was wearing a bamboo hat, and he didn't get any rain.After the soldier stood still, he took out a letter from his sleeve and said, "Captain Xiao, there is a letter from His Highness."

While speaking, the soldier had already handed over the letter.

Xiao Qingzhi quickly took it over, waved his hand to make the soldiers retreat, and then he quickly opened it to browse.After Xiao Qingzhi finished reading, he had a shocked expression on his face, and said with emotion: "Military Master, Your Highness is worthy of being Your Highness. The entire Jiujiang County has been brought into His Highness's hands. Now His Highness is temporarily stationed in Jiujiang County, preparing to contain Yuan Wei, waiting for Yuan Wei Wei sent troops."

Zhou Zishan was not very surprised, and said with a smile: "Your Highness is a master of using troops, and it is only natural to win. In fact, I have never doubted this point, and I have always believed in it. I even think that even if Yuan Wei sends troops, If you really want to fight His Highness, Yuan Wei will definitely lose."

Xiao Qingzhi echoed: "Speaking of which, I also think that His Highness will win. I have followed His Highness for a long time. As far as I know, His Highness has never encountered defeat, and has always been invincible to those who stand in his way."

Zhou Zishan said: "Martial arts, strategy, literary talent, His Highness is the best choice."

Xiao Qingzhi also nodded.

When he mentioned Wang Qi, he opened up the chatterbox and said, "Speaking of which, I'm really glad. I was desperate, my wife was already sick and dying, and my family was even more dilapidated. Your Highness has a discerning eye, and directly promoted me. I believe in me. Without Your Highness, how could I be where I am today."

Zhou Zishan said with a smile: "Your situation is actually not a special case. As soon as you said it, I thought of the rest of the people under His Highness. I have known it before. Look at Zhu Shanchang today. He is now the Qingzhou Shepherd."

"In terms of age, you are young enough."

"At this age, who would dare to use Zhu Shanchang as the governor of the state. His Highness dared to do so, and the current Qingzhou is governed very well. To put it bluntly, Zhu Shanchang is indispensable for the development of Qi State to this day."

Zhou Zishan said: "When it comes to the ability of internal politics, he is well-deserved number one."

"Besides, Yang Shanjun, I remember the former Yang Shanjun, a businessman from Youzhou Tianxiang Pavilion. Your Highness, it turned out to be an early layout, allowing Yang Shanjun to lay a foundation in Qingzhou. That's why we defeated Lu Shengqi in the process. Easy, no difficulties."

"There is also Zhuge Feng. In the past, Zhuge Feng's family was already down and out. Zhuge Feng traveled abroad and was not very old. But His Highness dared to use Zhuge Feng as a military advisor."

"Even Xia Houhu was promoted by His Royal Highness."

Zhou Zishan said with a look of emotion, "I have carefully investigated the system of our army, and it was formed by His Royal Highness, so that today's army has sufficient combat effectiveness."

"The soldiers of our army are all learning to read and write. This is the only one. The quality of the soldiers of the army is constantly improving. I can say that looking at the whole country, the overall quality of the soldiers of our Qi State is the strongest. .”

"Actually, there are other aspects of Qi State that are inseparable from His Highness."

"It's true that His Highness came from a family. But did His Highness really rely on the power of the Wang family to achieve today's success? In fact, it is very rare. All of this is due to His Highness."

Zhou Zishan said: "That's why I admire Your Highness very much, and it is my true honor to be able to serve His Highness."

Xiao Qingzhi said: "I am also like this."

After a pause, Xiao Qingzhi said: "Let's get down to business, Your Highness took down Jiujiang County. It means that Yuan Wei is actually suffering from both ends. If you analyze it, military advisor, how will Yuan Wei respond? I reckon that the news should have come back. "

Chapter 507

In Zhou Zishan's mind, he thought about it quickly and carefully analyzed the stakes.After a long time, Zhou Zishan said: "I think it is very likely that Yuan Wei will fight at the same time in this battle."

Xiao Qingzhi said: "Once wars start at the same time, they will inevitably face great pressure. Under such circumstances, once Yuan Wei has a problem in one of the roads, it will inevitably affect the whole body. Such an arrangement is risky."

Zhou Zishan nodded and said, "There is indeed a certain risk, but we can roughly judge by analyzing Yuan Wei's temperament carefully. Yuan Wei will definitely go to war at the same time."

"As for whether the troops should be divided into two groups, Yuan Wei also has advisers and civil servants under his command. Someone will definitely mention Jiujiang County and abandon Guangling County, or someone will propose to send troops at the same time."

"Under such circumstances, there are many choices, and the final decision depends on how Yuan Wei chooses."

Zhou Zishan said: "The reason why Yuan Wei arranged for Han Song to come to Guangling County is because Yuan Wei has enough greed and wants to get involved in the interests of Xuzhou. But, he lost Han Song's [-] troops here in Guangling County. .”

"If Han Song doesn't care about it, the 3 people lost by Han Song will be given away in vain. All his efforts will be in vain. Moreover, if he doesn't care, Shi Chong will definitely not be able to stop our attack and will inevitably lose .”

"At that time, the entire Guangling County will be included in the jurisdiction of our Qi State. If Yuan Wei wants to go north again, there will be no possibility. In addition, Yuan Wei himself also wants to get involved in Xuzhou, and he is greedy and wants to expand his strength. .”

"Based on the superposition of the two reasons, Yuan Wei's final choice must be to divide the army into two groups."

Zhou Zishan said: "Take us all the way, and go all the way to Jiujiang County. As for the specific strength of Yuan Wei, we don't know, so we don't know how many soldiers the other party will send. The upper limit of the number should be between [-] and [-]." between."

After thinking for a while, Xiao Qingzhi nodded and said, "The military division's analysis is indeed reasonable."

"Report!"

At this moment, another soldier entered.

The soldier stood still and said: "Lieutenant Xiao, the latest information, we arranged a sentry on the border of Guangling County, near the border of Yangzhou, and discovered a large army from Yangzhou, heading towards Guangling County. The number of people, about 3, came to help Shi Chong."

Xiao Qingzhi's eyes were bright, and he ordered: "Understood, let's investigate again!"

"Yes!"

The soldier turned and retreated.

After the soldiers retreated, Xiao Qingzhi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Military Master, your analysis is really ingenious and almost perfect. Now Yuan Wei has sent [-] troops to Guangling County to help Shi Chong. We Here, how does the military division plan to deal with this army?"

Zhou Zishan's eyes were sharp, and he said with a smile: "Without this heavy rain, we would still have some difficulty in dealing with the new [-] troops. After all, once the real war starts, Shi Chong may go out of the city to fight. But right now, we can rely on Today's heavy rain has given the opponent a fatal blow."

Xiao Qingzhi asked, "How to make a fatal blow?"

Zhou Zishan stood up straight away and walked to a map of Guangling County hanging in the tent.

This map was copied.From the map presented to Wang Qi by the Mi family in the past, I copied the topography and landforms of Guangling County, and the situation in the territory is very detailed.

Zhou Zishan's hand fell on a river in the south of Guangling County, and said, "Our ambush site is Qingwagou. This is a river, but the water flow in Qingwagou has been very small all year round."

"Although there is water in the river, the water does not reach the ankles. Many people, in order to save the path, directly cross the river of Qingwagou. After all, the river is full of gravel and stones. Cross the river directly. Over time, many people used to walk here when they were on their way, which formed the current official road."

Zhou Zishan said: "Yuan Wei's people went north and didn't know the way, so they would definitely go here. Now that it's raining heavily, we still use water attack, and directly build dams to store water in the upper reaches of Qingwagou."

"When the opponent passes by, let the water go directly, and the flood will wash down, and the entire river channel of Qingwagou will suddenly flood. When it rushes to the area where the river is crossed, Yuan Wei's army will definitely collapse completely."

Zhou Zishan said: "This is the fatal blow to our victory."

Xiao Qingzhi was a little puzzled, and said in surprise: "Military teacher, why didn't I know? We are all in the army, how come you know so much about these news?"

Zhou Zishan smiled and said, "Captain, you are in charge of military affairs. You are in charge of the drills of the entire army, as well as the logistics supplies of the soldiers, even food, soldiers' pay, and weapons."

"There are too many things like this. Naturally, it is impossible for you to spare other time to understand the topography of Guangling County. I am in the army and have nothing to do every day, so I just study these."

Zhou Zishan said: "I learned the news after asking many people and reading local chronicles."

Xiao Qingzhi said in a deep voice: "There is a chance to defeat the enemy only if there are military advisers. This time, we will adopt the strategy of flooding. I want to see how this [-] army can resist us. But we are now , we have to be more cautious. After all, we can’t let Shi Chong know about sending troops to deal with Yuan Wei’s reinforcements. Once Shi Chong sends troops, it will be bad for us.”

Zhou Zishan said to himself: "This matter is simpler. This rain, it seems, will not end in a short time. Although it is not suitable for fighting under heavy rain, it is more troublesome to travel, after all, the road is muddy."

"However, it is an excellent time to hide our whereabouts. Under such heavy rain, our whereabouts will not be discovered. Therefore, we immediately dispatched an army to Qingwagou, dispatched 5000 people, and Captain Xiao Lead the troops yourself."

"As for me, I will stay in the barracks and take charge. I will monitor the situation in the camp. I even let the remaining soldiers pretend that we have tens of thousands of troops, and the daily drills will not stop."

Zhou Zishan said: "So as long as Shi Chong confirms that our army is still outside the city, Shi Chong will not dare to act rashly. In the battle at Qingwagou, we wiped out Yuan Wei's army, and then everything will be easy."

Xiao Qingzhi's eyes were bright, and he said: "What the military adviser said is true, this battle will be handled according to the military adviser's instructions. I immediately dispatched soldiers to take action, and led the soldiers on the road, trying to reach Qingwagou as soon as possible. Here in the army, leave it to the military adviser. "

Zhou Zishan said: "General, please don't worry, I look forward to the general's triumphant return. When the general returns from his triumphant return, it will be the time for me to break the embankment and flood Guangling."

Xiao Qingzhi suddenly laughed.

Flooded Guangling!

Once countless floods poured down from the upper reaches, entered the moat along the river, and then the river surged and entered the city, flooding Guangling County, and Shichong was completely over.

Xiao Qingzhi looked forward to it, he stopped talking, put on the armor, and then sent people to send hats and coir raincoats, and asked the soldiers to prepare dry food. In a short period of time, the army gathered together, and then quietly disappeared in the rain and mist. direction to go.
