Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The battle at Sanyuan Mountain destroyed the Chu army's ability to resist, and the city of Yuzhang became meat on the chopping board, just waiting for the Sui army to come and collect it.

    Huang Weiyang was not in a hurry to taste the fruits of victory, but let the three armies repair and build fortifications, waiting for Liang Jun's reinforcements to arrive.

    "It's a pity that things don't follow people's plans. If everything went as smoothly as people planned, there wouldn't be so many troubles in the world.

    On July 10, news came from the direction of Jiujiang. After setting off from Jiangling, the main force of the Liang Army did not take the land route, but went down the Yangtze River to occupy Huancheng.  Next, the Liang army failed to go south to Yuzhang and fight the Sui army as the Sui army expected. Instead, the navy troops continued to advance along the river, occupying Hukou, Pengze and other places, cutting off the Sui army's water supply lines.

    And Zhang Xiu, the commander-in-chief of the Chu army, led 80,000 Chu troops to garrison Huancheng, pretending to sit back and watch the Sui army and Lin Chu fight hard.

    The Sui army was fully prepared at Yuzhang City, but the Chu army did not come.

    Hearing the news, Huang Weiyang was a little confused and a little surprised.

    Since he led the army last year, he has defeated Li Zitong, Yu Wenhuaji and others and captured Huainan. For a time, he felt that his military ability was not inferior to others.

    But first there was the ambush at Sanyuan Mountain, and then today Zhang Xiu cut off the Sui army's supply line, causing Huang Weiyang to suffer successive setbacks and feel full of frustration.

    Faced with this situation, Huang Weiyang had to summon the generals to discuss the next move.

    After hearing the news, Ling Jing immediately suggested that Huang Weiyang retreat.

    "My soldiers are tired and old, Lin Shihong defends the fortified city, and it is not easy to make sudden advances. However, Zhang embroidered mat comes in victoriously and cuts off my food route. He is very sharp and energetic. I am surrounded by enemies from the front and back. This is not a perfect strategy. It is better to burn all the ships and return by land.  Jiangnan, let¡¯s plan for the future.¡±

    Huang Weiyang asked: "If our army's hundreds of large and small ships are burned, the Jiangnan Navy will no longer exist, and the entire Yangtze River defense line will be handed over to Xiao Liang."

    Ling Jing said: "Although there are hundreds of ships, they are not as safe as tens of thousands of troops. As long as the naval forces are not lost, they will be burned today and rebuilt tomorrow. And if our army persists in fighting hard, the Puppet Liang Navy will not be able to hold out and block the lake."  Mouth, as time goes by, my army of 100,000 will probably feel ashamed if we don¡¯t fight."

    Many people also nodded.

    In fact, everyone did not want to retreat, and they were not afraid of a battle with Liang Jun.  It's just that now Liang Jun has cut off their logistics supply line. Once the food is exhausted, the three armies will be completely defeated.

    So I had to retreat.

    At this time, Su Lie had different opinions. He stood up and said: "Lin Shihong is at the end of his rope and will soon become a prisoner of our army. The Puppet Liang Army came all the way to rescue Lin Shihong. It is God's will that both countries will perish at the same time. Once our army is defeated  Zhang Xiu can completely destroy the morale of the Puppet Liang Army, which is better than our army going upstream and passively attacking the city. I thought we should take Wanjialing from the north, hold on to the danger, and lure the Puppet Liang Army south to defeat their army."

    "It's so easy to say, but how to lure the puppet Liang army southward!"

    Su Lie retorted: "This is a tactic, not a strategy. We must first decide on the big strategy before talking about specific tactics."

    At this time, Chen Kedi also said: "Lin Shihong has been defeated by our army, and the entire seven counties of Jiangzhou are within easy reach. Even if our army retreats and the Puppet Liang Army is here, Lin Shihong cannot survive alone.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.  Once our army retreats, the seven counties of Jiangzhou will be surrendered to Puppet Liang.

    Puppet Liang is already powerful and has many soldiers and horses. Once it obtains the land of the seven counties of Jiangzhou, it can use its advantages upstream to harass our Huainan and Jiangdong areas at any time.  By then, there will be flames of war everywhere along both sides of the river.  Especially the land of Huainan has not been newly attached for a long time, and the people have not yet obeyed. Once war breaks out again, ambitious people everywhere will be ready to take action. It is not necessarily known whether our army can protect the Jianghuai land by then.

    ¡°Once that happens, I¡¯m afraid the north and the south will stand side by side.  "

    Huang Weiyang heard this and nodded: "The Xiao family is often in the south of the Yangtze River, and its influence is not weak."

    But most people still don¡¯t think this battle is so dangerous.  Return to the Jianghuai River and defend according to the danger. It is not so easy to fail.  Moreover, the Duke of Northern Wei had millions of troops, and Xiao Mian was drowned by his spitting.

    The two sides couldn't stop arguing, so Huang Weiyang said: "Morale can be boosted but not discouraged. A hundred thousand troops are marching south. We originally wanted to defeat the puppet Chu in one battle. Now we have fought many battles and defeated the enemy in several battles. Victory is already in sight."  . But if we retreat like this, how can we protect our military morale?"

    Huang Weiyang's words are unreasonable. If you retreat after a defeat, the first purpose is to preserve your strength, and what else should you consider about military morale.  Is it necessary to wipe out the entire army just to consider the morale of the army?

    Everyone also understood the loopholes in Huang Weiyang's words. At the same time, they knew more clearly that Huang Weiyang was just looking for a random reason. The reason why he said this was that he probably didn't want to withdraw from it.retreat.

    This is the first time Huang Weiyang has commanded a large-scale national war. Just by looking at his disregard for safety and fighting to the death before and after the battle at Sanyuan Mountain, you can know how important this battle is to him.

    Huang Weiyang wants to fight.

    This time .com Zhang Si.  Huang Weilie knew what his brother was thinking, so he stood up and said: "Now Yuzhang City is about to be destroyed. Although Lin Shihong is trapped in the isolated city, there is nothing to worry about. The puppet Liang army has one hundred thousand coming from the east, and our army also has one hundred thousand. With one hundred thousand  Our army is not afraid of one hundred thousand people. If we defeat the Puppet Liang Army in this battle, it will be easy to destroy the Puppet Liang Army in the future. This time, I support the war."

    Huang Weilie showed his attitude clearly, and the others had no choice but to support him regardless of whether they were willing to fight or not.

    Ling Jing sees it as  Nothing can be done.

    Although Ling Jing has status, influence, and can even be powerful at times, he does not have the power to command the army, and he does not have the status of prime minister like Fang Xuanling. Therefore, Huang Weiyang insists on going his own way, and he really has no choice.

    At this time, veteran Ou Yan, who had been silent, also stood up and supported Huang Weilie.

    Ou Yan also had his own ideas. He was originally a general in the first echelon of the Fengzhou faction, with a status higher than Zhang Wenyuan, Liu Yunfang, and Cai Zhiyun. He was also one of the first people to be granted the title of marquis.  But after so many years in the south of the Yangtze River, I had not caught up with the conquest of Liao, the extermination of the Turks, the pacification of Hebei, the entry into Guanzhong, and the pacification of Li Mi. I had long been demoted from the first echelon of generals to the second echelon or even  Now in the third echelon, there is only one qualification left to rely on.

    Ou Yan was certainly not satisfied with this result, so he had to follow Huang Weiyang to pacify Jiangxi and make new achievements.

    As a veteran general in the army, Ou Yan supported Huang Weiyang, and the matter was settled.

    So Huang Weiyang decided to continue the Battle of Yuzhang.

    Because the enemy forces were flanking from the north to the south, Huang Weiyang left Ouyan to lead the main force of the Shence Guard to continue besieging Yuzhang City, while resisting the Liang Army in the south; Huang Weiyang and Huang Weilie led the Tiance Guard, and the left guard led the battalion north to meet the attack.  Liang Jun; while Chen Kedi led the navy and the right guard battalion into Penglize, taking the opportunity to capture the mouth of the lake and open up the water communication line.

    Control the big one and control the owl.  Huang Weilie was still too young to lead an independent army, so he was replaced by Chen Kedi as the commander of the Navy.

    A larger-scale battle began
