Several generals under his command had just suggested sending troops to Danyang to take advantage of this opportunity to get a share of the pie. Danyang's wealth made them envious. Especially for those manufactured goods, there are also many workshops.
Even if they seize the workers and technology of some of the workshops, they will definitely make Beijing Dynasty richer and stronger. Song Heng actually preferred to send troops to Danyang City.
After all, his son's death made him very angry at the time. What he was thinking was that by kindly sending troops to help Yunze, he could repay Yunze's kindness in giving him the drawings.
But who would have thought that Yunze would kill his prince regardless of his face. This made him feel that he was completely humiliated.
However, he actually knew in his heart that this matter was a good thing done by his incompetent son. He even guessed that his son wanted to harm his daughter at that time.
Thinking that his son not only wanted to kill his sister, but also wanted to drag Yunze into trouble for his own selfish desires, the anger in his heart slowly calmed down.
What makes Song Heng better than Song Ji is that he is reasonable and grateful. Unlike his other brother, King Kang, who was ungrateful, Song Heng would repay his kindness.
Therefore, after hearing his daughter's persuasion, Song Heng let go of his hatred for Yunze. He did not send troops to avenge his son.
But no matter what, he is still the king of a country. Although it is his own fiefdom, it is said to be a country, but in fact it is just his own fiefdom. But if he wants his men to be loyal to him, sometimes he has to listen to some suggestions.
When several of his generals said they wanted to rob Danyang City, he was already a little moved, but he still felt a little regretful.
"Father, I think that not only can we not take advantage of others' danger, but we must also send troops to help Yunze." At this time, Song Bingqing spoke out from below.
"Yes, Father, based on my understanding of Yunze, this person is very thoughtful and always acts in a flawless manner. Since he dares to send troops to attack Zhejiang, Yongbo and Fan towns, he is absolutely sure to defend Danyang City. We will send troops now. If you do, I'm afraid not only will you not get any benefits, but you may also become enemies with Yunze."
"Yunze is a person who values affection and righteousness. If we lend a helping hand at this time, we will definitely get more benefits than if we rob him. Moreover, there are risks in robbing us, but we must definitely help him." Better than robbing!”
Sein Fei quickly followed up and said. In the entire Beijing Dynasty, Song Heng was the person whom Song Heng could rely on. In addition to the ministers, there are also his daughter and the best son Song Fei.
Especially his daughter Princess Bingqing, who is unparalleled in intelligence and scheming, and is excellent in all aspects. If the other party hadn't been a girl, he would definitely make her the crown prince.
Song Heng listened to the persuasion of his sons and daughters, and then looked at His Highness's ministers. At this time, the court officials who supported Song Bingqing and Song Fei quickly stepped forward to echo Song Bingqing and Song Fei's suggestions.
The remaining ones who understood the situation also felt that it was best to make good friends with Yunze. These people saw clearly, and less than one-third of the courtiers wanted to send troops to rob it.
They believed that they, the Northern Jing Dynasty, were absolutely capable of grabbing benefits from the crusade. Song Heng frowned, and after thinking for a while, he said to the ministers: "On this matter, we will wait for the battle reports from Jinhua City and Jiangshan City to be sent back before making a decision. Zhang Jun, you can lead an army of 100,000 at any time." …”
Following his voice, His Highness's ministers had different expressions.
But everyone knew that Song Heng wanted to see whether Yue Pengju and Gao Chong would win in the final result, or Shi Ren would win. If Yue Pengju and Gao Chong win, then they will support Danyang.
But if they lose, I'm afraid they won't be supporting them, but will be sending troops to attack them. Although Song Heng was grateful, after becoming the emperor, he wanted more to stabilize the imperial power. Become a true emperor. Profit comes first.
The ministers slowly dispersed. Song Bingqing looked at his father who was leaving, and then at his younger brother who had the same complex expression. He sighed. How could the two of them not know their father's plan?
"Now, I just hope that Yunze and the others can win the first battle, otherwise...sigh..." Song Bingqing's voice was full of helplessness.
"Forty thousand soldiers went to attack the Zhejiang, Yong and Fan towns. I really don't know what he was thinking. Forty thousand soldiers were going to fight against the 300,000 Zhejiang, Yong and Wu Jing troops. They were going to be exhausted. Now, he is surrounded by enemies on all sides, how can he break the situation? !”
Sein Fei also shook his head, his eyes full of pity and a hint of worry. He didn't want Yunze to lose like this. At least, for now, Yunze can definitely become his ally when forces are rising everywhere.
Regardless of the overall situation or his personal emotions, he didn't want anything to happen to Yunze. He only hoped that Yunze's first battle to attack Zhejiang, Yongbo and Fan towns would be successful.
Beijing is waiting and watching, while the surrounding forces have begun to approach Danyang City. In addition to King Kang of Nanjing, there was also Fang La of the Yongle Dynasty.
Then there is the 60,000-strong army of the six continental prefectures in the south. The entire Danyang City is attacked on three sides, not counting the war in Zhejiang, Ningbo and Fan towns.
Yunze was currently staying in the meeting hall of Yuncheng. In front of him were a group of generals of the People's Army, including the commanders of the Second Army, the Third Army, and the Fourth Army.
Except for the commander, everyone else was in the military camp.
The entire Danyang City's military strength has now expanded from 180,000 to 200,000. Excluding the 40,000 First Army that Yue Pengju took with him, there is still a 160,000-strong army. Three armies, each with more than 50,000 people.
Su Qianmo sat next to Yunze, and all the military-level generals in front of him looked at Yunze. When there were any changes in the surrounding forces, Yunze's intelligence organization had already passed the information back.
Everyone looked solemn at this time, and their eyes were full of worry. The remaining 160,000 people were almost all new recruits. The training time was no more than three months. With such a force to fight against the three armies, it would still be more or less difficult for everyone. There is no bottom.
Although, after intensifying manufacturing during this period, in terms of weapons, nearly 10,000 muskets have been produced, and even many mountain cannons and artillery shells have been produced.
However, it is still somewhat difficult to support a three-way war. After all, the combined strength of the three attacking armies was almost 260,000.
The Yongle Dynasty had 100,000 troops, the Nanjing Dynasty had 100,000 troops, and the six southern states had a total of 60,000 troops. Danyang City is only so big. Once any party breaks through the defense line, Danyang City will be in danger.
"Qian Mo, you are responsible for stopping the Yongle Dynasty, Han Long is responsible for stopping the coalition forces from the six continents in the south, and the rest, Prince Kang, will be left to me. This time, it is time to settle the score with him." Yunze looked at the man in front of him. Several people said.
Several people nodded after hearing this and had no objections to this. However, Su Qianmo said at this time: "There is also the Ming King of the Beijing Dynasty. They have not made any move yet, but there is no guarantee that they will not send troops. If If they take this opportunity to send troops!"
She did not finish her words, but everyone knew that if the other party took the opportunity to send troops at this time, I am afraid that the entire Danyang City would be even more dangerous.
Hearing this, Yunze paused and said, "Beijing Dynasty is probably waiting for the results from Pengju, or maybe we will add an ally!"
King Ming did not send troops together. Yunze guessed that the other party was waiting. He might take advantage of others' danger, or he might provide help in times of trouble. Yunze knew Song Bingqing and Song Fei. With their siblings around, most of the Ming kings would sway from side to side.
Therefore, Yunze is not worried about him. Based on his past impressions of King Ming, this person has not yet reached the point of being crazy and ungrateful. But if he really said that he would help him without hesitation, Yunze would never believe it.
This was not in the interests of Prince Ming, and Yunze had no intention of blaming him. After all, one day in the future, they might face each other again. At that time, it was a life-or-death situation.
If he doesn't take the opportunity to destroy himself at this time, he already has some conscience, but if he really has a conscience, it will be difficult to achieve a great cause! One general achieves great things, but all bones wither. Since ancient times, whoever achieves great things is because of the kindness of women!
When everyone heard this, their faces were stunned. Although Yunze's words made sense, they were still somewhat worried.
Yunze did not explain too much to everyone. He continued: "Remember my words, drag the enemy at the border, and make good use of my sixteen-character policy. When the enemy advances, we retreat, when the enemy is stationed, we harass, when the enemy is tired, we attack, When the enemy retreats, we will pursue them! We don’t want to confront them head-on for the time being. We have advanced equipment and can do this. When they lose their fighting spirit, it’s time for us to launch a full-scale counterattack."
Following his voice, everyone nodded, their eyes full of seriousness.
Soon, Yunze issued specific tasks. Su Qianmo and Zhao Donglai led 40,000 troops to fight against the Yongle Dynasty to hold them back, while Han Long and Guo Ming led 30,000 troops to deal with the Six Continents Allied Forces in the south.
Yunze led an army of 40,000 to attack King Kang's army of 100,000. As for the 50,000 army under the charter, Chen Qing and Luo Xuan led to guard Yuncheng.
Yunze did not lead any other generals, but the division-level generals who had two divisions under his command. Yunze decided to give these people a good training. Although he only had an army of 40,000 men, and they were all new soldiers, he was absolutely sure that he could destroy King Kang's army.
Just as Yunze responded, the battle between Jinhua City and Jiangshan City also started. The 6,000 cavalry sent by Yue Pengju used their fastest speed to wipe out the 10,000-strong army to suppress Wu Jing's army.
The loss of the 6,000 cavalry was less than 100, most of which were caused by the horses being trapped and injured. Among the 100, only more than 20 people were actually killed.
With such a record, even Yue Pengju, who received the battle report, was surprised. The soldiers trained by Yunze's training methods had such strong combat effectiveness.
Of course, the main reason for this is that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the military town is too poor. As soon as the cavalry rushed out, they were already in chaos. In the first round of confrontation, ten thousand people were defeated in an instant, and then there was a one-sided massacre.
That afternoon, it took less than an hour to resolve the battle. When the cavalry general came back to report, Yue Pengju was still a little stunned.
However, what amused him was that from the captured prisoners, Yue Pengju actually heard that the Lord of Jinhua City was really planning to mess with him, and the time he chose was the afternoon of the next day. Believe in fireworks.
This actually made Yue Pengju think of a plan to seize the city.
