When Xiong Yuan heard that Qu Xiong actually wanted to go there in person, he was also shocked. Although he did want to take back the three counties of Wu State because he was too embarrassed before, so as to calm people's hearts, and he was a little annoyed that Qu Xiong was targeting him, but he didn't Silly, he also knows that Qu Xiong is the guarantee for the current security of the Chu State. The Yue State has 300,000 troops in the north. If Qu Xiong is not here, how can he feel at ease? After all, the three counties of the Wu State are occupied land, and the south of Fenghu is the homeland of the Chu State. , the two are different. This is like ceding nine counties in the northwest. The combined total is not as large as any of the three counties of Wu State, but the pressure it brings is greater than losing the three counties of Wu State. Those nine counties were lost to Wei. He didn't have much confidence in getting it back after Guo Tun, so he had no choice but to take action against Wu Guo.
"Now that hundreds of thousands of Yue soldiers are in the north, the generalissimo must resist the Yue movement south and cannot be easily mobilized." Xiong Yuan said immediately.
Qu Xiong also immediately said from the bottom of his heart: "Your Majesty, how could I not know this? But compared with entering Wu, although the Yue State has heavy troops in the north, our Chu defense line will still be able to operate for a long time. Even if I am not here, it can last for a year." It won’t be a problem for half a year, but if I am right about the Wu State, it is very likely that the Yue State deliberately lured the enemy. It was the people of the Wei family, Lin Haoming, Zhu Feiling and others who deliberately wanted to consume our Chu soldiers on the battlefield. Therefore, if you want to go, only by defeating the enemy can you truly take back the three counties of Wu."
"I understand the heart of a general. I just need to resist the Yue Kingdom in the north. I really cannot lack a generalissimo. Moreover, I already have a candidate, and I can't bear to have a generalissimo running around." King Chu seemed to comfort him.
"I don't know which general it is?" Uncle Wang looked at the King of Chu and seemed confident. Although I also guessed that the King of Chu had not made a bad decision early in the morning, and it was just a formality to invite him to discuss matters.
King Chu also immediately smiled and said: "It was Thunder Qu Xiong who annexed Xiong Lei Ting County back then. Back then, Qu Xiong lived up to his name. With the power of thunder, he destroyed Wu all the way, and even Xiao Xia swallowed up the whole country before he could help. In terms of understanding Wu Guo, no one can compare with Qu Xiong."
"Prince Thunder is indeed a famous commander, but the prince is not yet over forty years old, and he still wants to go on an expedition at an old age. So... is that appropriate? Moreover, before the prince was injured as a teenager, he stopped paying attention to military affairs. He is not yet eighty years old. Now, Is it appropriate to take charge of the military again?" Uncle Wang asked very confidently.
However, the King of Chu said very confidently: "Everyone knows very well why Qu Xiong gave up military power back then. Speaking of that matter, I didn't feel ashamed to face Zhu Xing, so I went to Qu Xiong in person after a long time. Ask Zhu Xing to come out. As long as Zhu Xing takes action, I doubt that Wu Guo will be able to get it back. As for what he said, Qu Xiong has also thought of it, so the young marshal is worried. Moreover, Qu Xiong is also a congenital low hand, although he is not yet forty. He's a few years old, but he's still strong, and he's born with weak hands. When the deadline comes, age doesn't mean much. The matter of the young marshal is settled like that. Could it be that he believes in a wrong bear?"
"In this case, I accept the order." Uncle Wang didn't have anything to say yet, but seeing that His Majesty had already made up his mind, and that others seemed to know about the decision, he had an idea, but he was still unsure whether Wu Guosan could do what he did back then. Like this, I was not prepared at all.
Lin Haoming has been waiting. From early autumn to mid-autumn, watching the weather getting hotter and hotter, I believed that the Chu State was planning to wait until next year. However, by the end of autumn, the Chu State finally had the patience to send troops.
When Lin Haoming learned that Wu Guosan took the military power and entered Wu, he was not surprised. After all, he had not left the Chu army for eighty years. He did not expect that he would come out again. But because of this, Lin Haoming either sent troops or sent troops. He went straight to Huanglong and headed towards the small army entrenched in the rectangular capital of King Wu.
Although it is winter, the sun is shining brightly today, which makes the Chu army, which originally likes to fight in winter, seem to be a little less advantageous, not to mention that the Chu army is 170,000 to 100,000, but over there, Lin Haoming set up a rectangular formation to charge directly. With a large number of troops, he planned to directly break through the opponent's small army.
Wu Guosan is a famous general, and I naturally knew that what Uncle Wang said was right, so from the moment I occupied the capital of King Wu and learned that Lin Haoming was sending troops, I was ready.
There was little communication between the two sides. Before the scouts detected the opponent's formation, they gradually approached according to the established formation. When they saw the opponent's overwhelming numbers of men and horses, the small Yue army that Lin Haoming was following suddenly appeared. He rushed out from the small army and charged directly towards the small army of Chu State. Zhu Xinghai seemed to be aware of Lin Haoming's intentions, so in addition to gathering troops when he first entered Wu, he also gathered his troops before conquering the royal capital to avoid being defeated by Lin Haoming one by one. So two days after he was about to celebrate the New Year, Lin Haoming followed. The 100,000 Yue army and the 170,000 Chu army following Wu Guosan faced each other directly at Xunmapo, ten miles away from King Wu's capital.
On the day after the New Year, the two armies lined up against each other outside. Is there any conspiracy at this time? Conspiracy and conspiracy have no meaning in such a scene. Both sides are using conspiracy, and what determines the outcome is not the previous decisive battle, but the previous one. Fight.
Wu Guosan is the current King of Chu's Qu Xiong, and he is the younger brother of the next generation of Chu kings. Because they are two brothers, the next generation of Chu kings have great trust in Wu Guosan. Wu Guosan is indeed an outstanding general. Before he loses his military power, he must first defeat The Southern Barbarians, who had previously destroyed the Wu Kingdom, once became the most popular figure in the Chu Kingdom. However, such a figure was from a royal family and was seventy years older than his brother, the King of Chu. As a result, the matter of the successor Something went wrong. In order to allow his son, who is now the King of Chu, to succeed to the throne smoothly, Wu Guosan's brother deprived his younger brother of his military power and hid his younger brother who was good at fighting for eighty years until he regained the military power now.
That was the opportunity Lin Haoming was waiting for, but Lin Haoming did not wait to send troops. Instead, he allowed Chu's troops to spread out in Wu before he finished dispatching troops. At that time, a princess of Wu also It happened that after all the hard work, he took the young prince into Huangye City and asked Lin Haoming for help. Naturally, Lin Haoming finally sent troops.
The reason why Chu State sent troops is also very long. The people of Chu State in Wu State were tortured by the rebels, so Chu State had to send troops, and Chu State sent troops with great force. After the Chinese New Year, they reoccupied Xiong Leiting County, and this As the king of Wu, before the Chu army came over, he was slaughtered by the so-called rebels, and the lower classes of Wu State were even bloodbathed.
Just two days after the two sides came into contact, Jiang Heng also sent troops to the south to put pressure on Uncle Wang. Uncle Wang also met the old commander after the old prince entered Wu and told him that the troops could be divided. If the Yue Kingdom When a small army comes over, it must concentrate its forces to actively attack it, so as to give the other side the opportunity to mobilize and deploy.
