At the end of February, the army led by Wang Qi successfully entered Guazhou City and occupied Guazhou ever since. In this battle, Wang Qi easily captured Guazhou City without spending a single soldier.
As soon as the army arrived, they directly took over the city, and all officials made adjustments. Even Zhang Gui made adjustments and was included in the Qi State as an official and was no longer responsible for Guazhou government affairs.
After the army rested and adjusted Guazhou City, Wang Qi continued to march westward toward Yiwu City.
When Wang Qi's army marched towards Yiwu City, Cao Xuan got the news of Longxu's surrender in Puchang, and he was furious. I thought I had publicized Qi's strategy and said that Qi would directly confiscate the land, population and other resources owned by the nobles. Naturally, the nobles from all over the country tried their best to resist, but Longxu still surrendered.
For this reason, Cao Xuan was very angry.
Cao Xuan immediately arranged for someone to notify Cheng Lin and Cao Yuanli to discuss matters.
As soon as the two arrived, Cao Xuan said: "I just got the news that Guazhou City Longxu has surrendered to Qi State. As a result, Wang Qi's troops directly captured Guazhou and began to march straight towards Yiwu City. .¡±
Cheng Lin said: "Your Majesty, this situation is a bit strange!"
Cao Xuandao: "How weird?"
Cheng Lin said: "Long Xu never resisted from the beginning to the end? How could it be possible that Qi's army immediately surrendered as soon as it arrived. In this case, if you think about it carefully, there is no resistance at all."
Cao Xuan sighed: "There was no resistance, so Long Xu surrendered directly."
Cheng Lin thought for a while and said: "I think Wang Qi should have sent people to carry out sneak attacks. In other words, Wang Qi arranged for experts to sneak into Guazhou City and directly control Longxu, so that he could surrender directly. Otherwise, It is impossible for Longxu to surrender directly."
Cao Xuan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he nodded and said: "Mr. Cheng, your reminder is very reasonable, and it should be such a plan. This matter must be notified to Aimaiti immediately, and he must arrange for someone to go to Yiwu City as soon as possible. As well as the city lords of various small cities, all are under martial law and be careful of the Qi State's strategy of beheading."
"Here comes someone!"
Cao Xuan was also a little anxious, so he immediately gave the order.
The soldiers entered the camp and bowed in salute.
Cao Xuandao: "Go and notify Aimaiti immediately to discuss the matter."
"yes!"
When a soldier receives an order, he quickly goes to inform him.
Cao Xuan said at this time: "I am very worried about the situation in Yiwu City now. Once the lord of Yiwu City is also subject to the same beheading plan, our situation will be quite dangerous. After all, the two major gates to the east are both Gone."
Cheng Lin said: "The news from Guazhou City has just been sent back. Even if the people of Qi continue to use their old tricks, it will probably take some time to implement the beheading plan in Yiwu City. For the time being, we should still have enough Time notification.¡±
Cao Xuan stroked the beard under his chin, with worry on his face, and said, "I hope so."
Cheng Lin said: "Yiwu City is now the largest city on the front line to resist the Qi army. I hope that Yiwu City can delay more time and block the Qi army. In this way, everything we have will have a chance. If we block it If we cannot hold down Qi's army, it will be quite dangerous next time."
Cao Xuan nodded.
His expression was very optimistic.
Not long after, Aimaiti entered. He bowed and said: "Aimaiti, pay homage to Your Majesty."
Cao Xuan said: "General Aimaiti, do you know the news about Guazhou City?"
"Know!"
Aimaiti nodded.
He also has his own intelligence channels, so he naturally knows the situation on the front line. Guazhou City fell, and even Longxu, who was extremely bellicose and a master, surrendered directly.
You must know that surrendering to Qi means that all land and population will be deprived of it, which is extremely unbearable. However, Long Xu surrendered directly.
This is very thought-provoking.
Cao Xuan said in a deep voice: "General Aimaiti, Qi State is not only powerful, but also its warriors are extremely powerful. I suspect that this time, Qi State arranged for a grand master to lead a team to assassinate city lords and officials in various places, or perhaps Threatening people everywhere."
"That's why Long Xu surrendered. You have closer contact with the city lords everywhere, and they obey your orders more. So this time, you notify them immediately and let them hide their whereabouts and avoid being discovered."
"Only in this way can we continue to fight, otherwise this battle will be difficult to fight."
A big man in the state of WeiThe situation, on the surface, is that Cao Xuan is the leader of Wei. In fact, Cao Xuan could not give orders to control the nobles in various places. He had to rely on Aimaiti, the head of the nobles.
This time, he said it directly.
There is no other way, we have reached this point, so we don¡¯t care about this.
Aimaiti was shocked. He felt more in awe of Qi State and sighed: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. After returning from your humble post, arrangements will be made immediately to ensure that all notifications are in place."
"Go!"
Cao Xuan waved his hand.
Aimaiti didn¡¯t stay any longer, got up and left.
Cao Yuanli looked at Aimaiti¡¯s leaving figure and said, ¡°Your Majesty, I am worried that people like Aimaiti are unreliable.¡±
Cheng Lin said: "I also have this worry."
Cao Xuan said in a deep voice: "As for the situation of Aimaiti and the situation of all the nobles, I also know that they are unreliable in general. These people are unreliable when it comes to life and death."
"But there is one thing they must side with us. That is, if they give up resistance, everything will be reduced to nothing, and they will no longer be able to control the land, population, etc."
"So they will not give up the fight until the end. At least now, the nobles headed by Aimaiti will stand on our side and support us with all their strength."
"When the troops of the State of Qi come to the city and they can't stop them, it's not too late to guard against Aimaiti and others. After all, in the end, they won't be able to stop them at all, and it's impossible for Aimaiti to resist."
Cao Xuandao: "This is one of my considerations. I think Aimaiti and others can still use it now."
Cao Yuanli said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Cheng Lin said: "Your Majesty's analysis is indeed reasonable. If they want to ensure their current power and interests, they have only one choice, to stand on our side. This is driven by interests."
Cao Xuan nodded, looked at Cheng Lin, and ordered: "Prime Minister, when fighting on the battlefield, logistics is very important and there can't be any problems. You must arrange food, grass, money, etc. carefully, and there must be no problems."
"I understand!"
Cheng Lin nodded and answered.
Cao Xuan looked at Cao Yuanli again and said, "Brother, you must also pay attention to the army. You cannot mess up your position just because of the many news from the outside. Don't let people's hearts wander because of the defeat on the front line."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured."
Cao Yuanli nodded solemnly. After all, he was also a veteran in the army.
This is absolutely no problem.
Cao Xuan then waved his hand, and Cheng Lin and Cao Yuanli resigned.
After the two people walked out of the Chinese army tent, Cheng Lin and Cao Yuanli looked a little serious.
Cao Yuanli said: "Mr. Cheng, do you still remember what happened in Weiwu County in the past?"
Cheng Lin said: "Everything in the past is still vivid in my mind."
Cao Yuanli said: "Wang Qi's methods are not only good at frontal attacks. At the same time, the intelligence bureau under his command is also pervasive. Back then, he actually instigated the rebellion of Li Hongzhong and other officials. You must carefully identify the officials accompanying you now. , we must arrange carefully and not make any mistakes. It would be too embarrassing if we fall down in the same pit continuously."
Cheng Lin smiled and said: "General, please rest assured, I understand."
Cao Yuanli clasped his fists and said, "There are still many things to do in the army, so I'll say goodbye."
Cheng Lin watched Cao Yuanli disappear. He looked up at the blue sky, looking at the scorching sun with its warm sun. He felt a little panicked for no reason.
I always feel that it may not be easy to resist Qi this time.
Although the war has just begun, the Qi State is coming with a fierce force that will not be easy to deal with, but is quite dangerous. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
