Governor please stay

It is said that the Northern Expedition of Liang Kingdom will be as powerful as a rainbow. I don’t know if it will really be like this?

He wrote "Chen Qingzhi" on the paper and let out a long breath.

……

Suiyang City was built on the north side of the Sui River.It's just that this river is very narrow, and it is an artificial canal dug in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to connect the two rivers.In winter, it is freezing and lifeless, and pawns crossing the river is like playing!

Therefore, the defense of Suiyang City itself is actually not worth mentioning. Whether it is from the Spring and Autumn Period to the season before the Yellow River seized Si, Suiyang is only a place with convenient transportation, but not a strong defense.

Yang Chun brought a part of the Northern Wei Xin Yulin Army south to Suiyang, and they had already set up camp outside the city.And Qiu Daqian, who has rich combat experience in Lianghuai and has been defeated repeatedly, has arrived in Suiyang ahead of schedule.

And without Yang Chun's order, nine small cities were built in advance, along the north bank of the Sui River, forming a half-moon-shaped "defense belt".

After Yang Chun arrived in Suiyang, he found that Qiu Daqian did not go out to find Liang Jun's trail as he suggested, but built a large-scale construction around Suiyang to establish a defensive front, so he was furious!

"That Chen Qingzhi scared you into a mouse?"

In the signing room in Suiyang City, Yang Chun smashed a round of military order tokens on the iron armor on Qiu Daqian's chest. It is legal to behead him.

Of course, it's only in theory, no coach will kill his generals when the enemy's army is still in the future.

"Dudu Yang, it's not that the last general is timid. This is a ship that has been sailing for thousands of years. Liang Guo's Northern Expedition is no small matter. If they were not fully sure, would they only send this few people? It is enough to see that these people are elites. One is ten."

Qiu Daqian saw that Yang Chun's complexion was a little better, and explained cautiously: "We build nine camps, so even if Chen Qingzhi has three heads and six arms, he can't break through one in a day, right?

As long as he camps at night, his nightmare will come. Nine camps are equivalent to our nine hands and nine pairs of eyes.He would worry about his rear if he attacked any one. "

Having become a good doctor after a long illness, it has to be said that Qiu Daqian suffered a lot of defeats in Lianghuai, so he also came up with a set of self-protection skills.No matter how elite your army is, those who can cut and kill, I just don't fall for it, I'm just a deep ditch barrier to consume with you, you bite me!

Although Yang Chun is a literati, he is not like those scholars who are powerless.He himself participated in many battles in his early years, and commanding battles may be a bit sloppy, but his eyesight is not bad.

As soon as he heard it, he knew that Qiu Daqian's "disobedience" to build the camp was to defend Suiyang, not for his own self-interest.He waved his hand, sighed and said: "Okay, I won't pursue this matter anymore, remember to tell me what you do next time."

Hearing that Yang Chun said that he would not pursue it anymore, Qiu Daqian was relieved.

He continued to say to Yang Chun: "Defense is no better than offense. Even if we have more than [-] horses piled up in Suiyang City, we can't expand. The number of people who come into contact with the enemy is always only a few thousand people. On the contrary, it is a waste of money and food. countless.

In the end, the general suggested that part of the army should be evenly distributed among the nine small cities, and then the main force should be concentrated in Suiyang.So once a small city is attacked, Suiyang City can provide support at any time.

And when Suiyang was attacked, the soldiers and horses of the nine small cities could play by ear, encircling and annihilating the enemy army under the city. "

It has to be said that Qiu Daqian still has a few tricks, at least these routines sound very reliable.

"Here, the end general will do it."

Qiu Daqian bowed his hands and slowly exited the signing room.

Yang Chun looked at the defense map hanging on the wall, and the nine small towns on the north bank of the Sui River surrounded Suiyang City in a half-moon shape.Although the Suihe River has no defensive function, there is a saying that "if the enemy can go, I can go too".If the Liang army had lost their halberds at the foot of Suiyang city, it would be very difficult for them to escape back to the state of Liang.

He felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he didn't know where this feeling came from.Ordinarily, Xiao Yan, the Emperor of Liang, was not a mediocre person, otherwise he would not be able to overthrow Southern Qi and establish himself as emperor.

Xiao Yan sent these 7000 men to the Northern Expedition, is it really because this army is so fierce?

Yang Chun has used many intelligence channels to verify the news, including the scouts along the road.Not only did he know that Liang Jun only had about 7000 people, but he also knew that Yuan Hao, a waste, had not recruited even a single soldier, and he was still bare!

In other words, Liang Guo's army in the Northern Expedition is not a "coalition army" at all, but only those 7000 people.

Xiao Yan can be regarded as number one, doesn't he know that Wei Guo has deployed heavy troops in Suiyang?

Yang Chun fell into deep thought, but after thinking for half an hour, he still couldn't figure out what Xiao Yan was thinking.Is it really like what many people thought before I came here, just to deal with Yuan Hao in a perfunctory way?

"Forget it, even if you can't fight, at least it won't fall in three to five days, and there is still time to ask for help."

Yang Chun sighed and said to himself.

……

Five days later, Liang Jun's vanguard scouts appeared on the south bank of the Sui River, and another day later, the main force of the Liang Army arrived at the Sui River and camped on the south bank of the Sui River.

In the big tent of Liang Jun's army, deputy generals Ma Fonian, Song Jingxiu and Yu Tianmin surrounded Chen Qingzhi.On the table in front of them, there was a sketch drawn by scouts. With a few strokes, the "Soul Painter" clearly drew the terrain around Suiyang City and the distribution of the city.

It looks a bit like the one hanging on the wall of the signing room in Suiyang City.

"The situation is very clear. The Wei army has been prepared for a long time. It should be someone from the court who sold out the military aircraft."

Chen Qingzhi sighed softly, feeling a little emotional.

If Wei Jun hadn't gotten the news in advance, where would they have the time to build the nine small cities?Don't even think about it, there must be someone in Jiankang City colluding with the people of Wei, but I don't know who that person is.

"Captain, what should we do, should we take a detour?"

Ma Fonian asked in a deep voice.

Chen Qingzhi waved his hands, and said solemnly: "An ordinary man can win his will, but the army cannot win his spirit. What's more, this is the first battle of our Northern Expedition. Don't say anything, we will defeat Suiyang tomorrow!"

"tomorrow?"

The three people present shouted at the same time, all of them were startled by Chen Qingzhi's arrogance.

"Captain, how can we destroy the city tomorrow, is this just a joke?"

Song Jingxiu was a little incoherent.If it is said that Wei Jun is not prepared, it is okay to say, now Wei Jun is fully prepared, let alone a day, or a month, sometimes it is impossible to make it through, and it is not uncommon to be unable to attack for a month.

"I'm not joking. If we fail to capture Suiyang tomorrow, we will not be able to capture Suiyang City. Pass on the order to attack the city tomorrow. If you fail, you will become benevolent. Fight to the last man!"

There was no smile on Chen Qingzhi's face, and it didn't look like he was joking in normal times.The three lieutenants all bowed their hands and said yes with stern faces, and their hearts were in a state of turmoil.

"Tomorrow, follow my orders. If you can't drink to your heart's content in Suiyang City, then everyone will be shrouded in horse leather. I will definitely not be special just because I am the chief general, and neither will you."

"Follow the command of the governor, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!"

The three generals said in unison.

"Go and rest, recharge your batteries today, and eat an hour earlier tomorrow morning."

After dismissing the three generals, Chen Qingzhi walked aimlessly in the camp with his hands behind his back.In his opinion, Wei Jun's arrangement is a double-edged sword.

It seems that the line of defense has been consolidated, but in fact it has diluted the strength of the troops.

It is not the number of troops but the level of morale that determines the outcome of this battle.Of course, if you can't make a breakthrough tomorrow, then you will go all out, and then decline, and then you will be exhausted.This time the Northern Expedition is really out of the question.

"Could it be Qiu Daqian?"

Chen Qingzhi muttered to himself that he met Qiu Daqian in his debut battle, and the opponent was also a general who liked to build cities. Seeing the nine small cities in front of him, he couldn't help but think of Qiu Daqian.

chapter 160

"Great governor! Liang Jun is attacking our army's deputy city!"

In the signing room of Suiyang City, a scout covered in blood stumbled and knelt in front of Yang Chun, crying, "Liang Jun is extremely ferocious, fearless of death, if there is no reinforcements, the city will be destroyed!"

Break the city?How long have you been riding this horse?

Yang Chun was stunned for a moment, and asked the scout with some doubts: "When you left, how long did Liang Jun attack the city?"

"It's about less than a stick of incense! Commander-in-chief, send troops to rescue, or it will be too late if you don't save them!"

The scouts knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but they saw Yang Chun's face like the bottom of a pot, pointed at him and cursed: "Come here, drag this Liang Jun spy down and behead him, so as to make an example to others!"

The unlucky scout was dragged out crying and cursing, probably never to see the sun again.After he left, Yang Chun felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart.

Of course he knew that this scout was not a spy, but that the morale of the army should not be disturbed, and those who had cholera and the morale of the army would be killed without mercy. This was not a problem.

Several lieutenants in the signing room heard what the scout said just now. How can the situation be calmed down without killing this person?

"Great Governor, or else I'll bring people to reinforce it. Not many, [-] soldiers and horses are enough."

Qiu Daqian said with some anxiety.

Yang Chun nodded slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead, be more cautious, and return to Suiyang City if the battle is not going well." Now his impression of Qiu Daqian has changed a lot, and the news of the scouts just now has also been verified from the side Yes, Qiu Daqian's preparation was not wrong.

At this moment, a small city at the edge of Suiyang City's defense line has been breached by Liang Jun.From the beginning of the siege to the break of the city and giving up resistance, it took a total of incense time.In fact, the Wei army scout left, and the Liang army broke through the small town on the back foot.

Thousands of Wei Army prisoners of war were gathered by Liang Jun, waiting for Chen Qingzhi to come to inspect and give lectures.

"How many people did our army lose in the previous battle?"

Chen Qingzhi asked Ma Buddha beside him to read the Tao.

"Back to the governor, 20 people were killed in battle, and the wounded are not counted."

Ma Fonian said with a blank face.

In front of all the generals, Chen Qingzhi pointed to a Wei army prisoner with a gray face and blood all over his body, and said: "Choose twenty of the most bloody ones from here, and let the personal soldiers carry out their executions and dig out their hearts and disembowel them to pay homage to our army." War dead."

These murderous words not only shocked the prisoners of the Wei army who had no intention of fighting again, but also made Ma Fonian, Song Jingxiu and other generals unbelievable.

Based on what they knew about Chen Qingzhi, this one didn't seem like someone who killed innocent people indiscriminately.They thought that Chen Qingzhi's words were to encourage the morale of the army, but they didn't expect it to be true!

"Can't hear you?"

Chen Qingzhi looked at the generals around him suspiciously, his expression worried.

"Here! Follow the command of the governor!"

The generals shouted in unison.

Soon, the unlucky one with the most blood on his body was picked out and executed in front of thousands of prisoners.All these prisoners of war were ashen-faced, their livers were torn apart with fright, and many of them wanted to spit out last year's New Year's Eve dinner.

After the execution, Chen Qingzhi said to Ma Fonian: "Tell the captives, this time, we will kill [-] of them to show our army's might, let these people go back, and tell others that next time we break the city, we will kill [-] of them except this one." In addition to the rules, one out of every five prisoners will be selected and killed!

Go ahead, time is tight, don't be fussy. "

With a wave of his hand, Chen Qingzhi left with the rest of the generals, leaving only Ma Fonian to deal with the aftermath.

As soon as everyone arrived outside the city, scouts reported that the Wei army had left Suiyang City in an attempt to rescue the surrounding small towns and fight our army.

"Yu Tianmin and Song Jingxiu, you two will lead 5000 men, including [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, to fight the Wei army. You must fight quickly!"

Chen Qingzhi commanded skillfully.

The second general led the way.

When Chen Qingzhi saw the captives in the small town being let go, he ran madly to the nearest small Wei army town, a rare smile appeared on his face.

In mind.

……

Qiu Daqian led [-] of the most elite infantry under his command, left Suiyang City, lined up to the west of Suiyang, moved forward slowly, searching for the enemy's traces.Liang Jun broke through a small city in the west, but it's really hard to say where the opponent's main force is.

In short, Qiu Daqian was very cautious, because he knew how powerful Chen Qingzhi was!

At the beginning, he led 5000 people to build a city in Xunliang (now north of Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province) further south.As a result, Chen Qingzhi brought 200 people with him at that time, and met him unexpectedly.

At that time, Qiu Daqian thought the same as Yang Chun now.There are only 200 people in the area, and there is not enough space between the teeth.Qiu Daqian, who thought he had enough troops, asked the deputy general to lead 1000 men to drive away the two hundred Liang troops.

He also believed at that time that if 1000 people fight 200 people, even if they cannot be wiped out, there will be absolutely no problem in driving them out.

And then... there is no more, Qiu Daqian only escaped with his body in that battle, and when he came back, he was almost decapitated by the angry Linhuai King Yuanyu.He lied that he encountered the main force of the Liang army, and the army was unable to use it in building the city, so he escaped.

"General Qiu, the Liang army is arrayed two miles ahead, slowly heading towards our army."

The scouts on horseback galloped back to report.

Qiu Daqian ordered the whole army to stand by and stand by.

Soon, Liang Jun came within the range of the bow and arrow.Qiu Daqian remained unmoved and did not make any moves. Liang Jun also did not use his bow and arrows. It seemed that both sides had a tacit understanding and planned to "take away" the opponent.

Suddenly, Qiu Daqian saw a cavalry team coming out from the rear of Liang Jun's flank, as if they were heading towards the north of his formation.He screamed in his heart that it was not good, and ordered the two lieutenants to gallop to the edge of the formation, press down on the two wings, and slowly shrink.

The main army is a crane wing formation, and the two wings can shrink according to the battle situation, and they can form a circle formation to protect themselves when necessary.Although Qiu Daqian suffered repeated defeats and battles, in good conscience, he was considered a bit tactical in the Wei army.

As if sensing his movement, Liang Jun in front of him began to move forward, speed up, gallop, and sprint.The speed of the pawns was as fast as that of a rider on horseback!

This is very wrong!

Qiu Daqian's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. As an old fritter who had been stationed in the south for a long time and fought countless times with various departments of Liang Jun, he knew the details of Liang Jun very well.Liang Guo's army relies entirely on the command and dispatch of famous generals, and the strength of the soldiers themselves is actually not worth mentioning.It is not even as good as the ordinary infantry of the Wei army.

For example, in the battle of Liang Guo's attack on Shouchun, it all relied on Wei Rui's leading strength, and the various ministries were well dispatched and full of tricks.Liang Jun's combat effectiveness is actually very scumbag, especially the field combat level is very low!

The army in front of them seems to be full of wild vitality, which is quite different from the lifeless atmosphere in the ordinary Liang army!

coming!

Qiu Daqian held the saber tightly in his right hand. During the battle, as long as the military orders were issued, there were actually very few things the general could do. He could only wait for the battle to come to an end before making adjustments.

Then he saw that his opponent was like a tiger pouncing on his prey, and he immediately dug a big hole in the formation on his side!

collapsed!

Qiu Daqian, who had a lot of combat experience, knew at a glance that this battle was bound to hit the street!

He didn't even think about it, and ran away with two soldiers.

At this moment, the two wings of the formation changed from shrinking inward to collapsing towards the center. The two lieutenants were knocked off their horses by their opponents as soon as they met each other, and the two wings of the entire Crane Wing Formation instantly rolled up.
