At this time, the governor of the East Road Governor's Mansion has been replaced by Lu Junyi. Lin Chong, Shi Jin and other more than 30 generals who surrendered to Liangshan have also been arranged to serve as generals in various cities throughout the East Road Governor's Mansion.
Lu Junyi was looking at the border battle report in his hand. Bangzi Kingdom sent troops to the border of Fubei City three days ago. The number of troops was 30,000. There were only 2,000 troops stationed in Fubei City.
In addition to Fubei City, there are Danshun City and Mujiang City, which are three cities bordering the Bangzi Kingdom, and Green River, which is also occupied by the Bangzi Kingdom.
When the Jin Kingdom was destroyed not long ago, because the three border cities were too dilapidated and small, there were not many garrisons stationed there. The total number of garrisons sent to the three cities was only 6,000.
In fact, on the entire east road, except for Hujiazhuang, Zhujiazhuang, and Liangshan, there are no other troops, and the combined strength of the three parties is only 100,000.
Since the destruction of the Jin Kingdom, the territory has expanded. In addition to the East Road's territory in the northeast, there are also three governor's offices of Shandong Road and Jin Road.
There are too many cities in the three governor's offices, and the division of troops seems to be insufficient. After all, this piece of territory is almost one-fifth of the Huaxia Kingdom.
Hu Sanniang, the governor at the time, never thought that the Bangzi Kingdom would come and invade. After all, the Bangzi Kingdom had already asked the Jin people to maim and beat them. They destroyed all the Jin people. The Bangzi Kingdom should be afraid of and grateful to them.
But who would have thought that the Bangzi Kingdom was not grateful to China for allowing them to keep the country, so they forgot about it and actually wanted to take advantage of China's establishment and seize the opportunity to annex China's territory.
The original three cities in Fubei were always under the control of the previous dynasty. However, due to the establishment of the Jing Dynasty and the rise of the Jin Kingdom, the supervision of these cities was insufficient, and finally they were occupied by the Jin Kingdom. It is not the land of Bangzi Country.
Lu Junyi and other generals didn't know where Bangzi's face came from. They actually asked China to give their territory to them. They even threatened that they were the largest country in the world and China would surrender and pay tribute to them. Otherwise, they would send troops to destroy China.
A small country in a small area, I don’t know who gave them the courage to have such a bold and delusional idea. The battle report shows that in addition to 30,000 troops deployed outside Fubei City, there are also 30,000 troops deployed in the other two cities, and there are even 60,000 troops in the rear waiting to march towards China at any time.
Lu Junyi had a headache at this time. The total strength of the three cities was only 6,000. Although the weapons they used were firearms, the production of new rifles by the Chinese military factory could not meet the needs of the army. Therefore, the 6,000 military It is also the earliest firecracker and the earliest wooden handle grenade.
Of course, because they were guarding the country, they were equipped with a few mortars, but due to the scarcity of artillery fire, each city had less than a hundred artillery fire. It is barely possible to deal with an enemy army of tens of thousands of people, but if it deals with an army of thirty thousand soldiers, the final result will definitely be defeat.
Although the troops in the three cities also belong to the Chinese People's Army, the problem is that their training was completed by Lu Junyi and the others, even if they were in accordance with Yunze's training requirements.
However, it is still much worse than the People's Army whose training methods have been adjusted by Yunze himself. In terms of combat effectiveness, it may not be too bad, but in terms of military willpower, it is definitely not as good as Yunze's personal intervention. People's Army training.
Sometimes, ideological awareness is the key to determining combat effectiveness. If the ideological awareness is high, even the remnant army can unleash unprecedented combat effectiveness.
"Master, what should we do now? Fight to the end with Bangzi and defend the three cities, or?" At this time, next to Lu Junyi was Yan Qing, who was Lu Junyi's deputy governor.
He is Lu Junyi's servant and has followed Lu Junyi since he was a child. His title has not changed even though he is now the deputy governor.
"Your Majesty entrusted the East Road to me. How can I live up to him? No matter what, we must not let the sticks run rampant. Send an order to let the three cities defend. Even if they all die in battle, we must not let the sticks take over the three cities. You ordered Lin Chong , Shi Jin and others quickly go to reinforce the three cities, and they must block the stick army."
Lu Junyi made the final decision. Yunze chose him as the governor of the East Road and gave him jurisdiction over the newly recovered Northeast. If he didn't fight yet, he would lose three cities first, and he might not have the face to see Yunze.
"In addition, ask Zhu Biao, the governor of Shandong Road, for help and ask him to send troops to support. As for Zhu Hu, the governor of Jin, forget it for the time being. He is too far away and it will be too late to come to support."
Hearing this, Yan Qing nodded and was about to leave. At this moment, there were footsteps outside the door and someone ran over quickly.
The two of them looked over in surprise, and saw a herald from the Dudu Mansion entering the door and looking at Lu Junyi and Yan Qing with an anxious and strange expression: "Your Majesty sent an order to withdraw the troops and people from the three cities of Fuguan to Lianqing City and gather together. Soldiers and horses from various cities on the east road are guarding Lienqing City, waiting for His Majesty's personal expedition."
After hearing the news, Lu Junyi and Yan Qing looked stunned. They finally understood why the herald looked weird.
They never thought that Yunze, the new emperor of China, would abandon the three cities before the war started. How can there be such a war? To admit defeat before this has even begun is to shake the morale of the army.
However, Yunze is now the emperor of China, and his words are imperial edicts. Moreover, Yunze has said that he will come to fight in person. They have a vague feeling that Yunze must have his own plans.
Looking at each other, Lu Junyi nodded to Yan Qing and quickly asked Yan Qing to convey the order to withdraw the troops and people from the three cities in Fubei to Lianqing City in the rear, which is the city where his governor's office is now located.
As the order was conveyed to the three cities of Fuguan, the people and soldiers in the three cities were all stunned and did not believe this decision for a while. Especially the people in the three cities, they had just migrated from the hinterland of the Central Plains. It's hard to get used to living here. Less than half a year later, they had to move again.
The people couldn't help but feel resentful, and some were even more resistant. However, when they thought of the Bangzi Army not far away from the city, they were frightened. If they stayed here, once the Bangzi Army broke through the city, they were afraid of life and death. I don’t know.
There was a feeling in the hearts of the people that although the Huaxia Kingdom was established, this country seemed to be very weak and did not even dare to fight against a country with a stick.
Finally, the people and troops of the three cities withdrew from the three cities in a complex and resentful mood.
The army of the Bangzi Kingdom outside the city only discovered three days later that the three cities had become empty cities. Their generals were filled with astonishment and did not recover for a long time.
The Bangzi Kingdom said they would attack the three cities, but they were still tempted. If they were allowed to attack the city, they would still be a little worried. The reason why they sent troops to the border was to scare the Huaxia Kingdom.
If they really want to use troops against the Huaxia Kingdom, they don't have the courage yet. After all, the Huaxia Kingdom has just destroyed the Jin Kingdom, which is a powerful country that has cast countless shadows in their hearts.
Such a country would be destroyed immediately by Huaxia. They did not believe that Huaxia's army was not strong. The reason they dared to come was that they felt that Huaxia's national strength should be weak at this time, and after the great event of establishing a new country, You may be a little exhausted. If you show off your muscles at this time, you may be able to reap some benefits.
Of course, if the Huaxia Kingdom really doesn't want them, their king is ready to send troops to attack the city, because they have accurate information, that is, the total strength of the three cities is only 6,000 people.
They sent a total of 90,000 troops, plus the 60,000 troops prepared in the rear, for a total of 150,000 troops. They felt that they could still advance a thousand miles directly.
But who would have thought that just a few days after they established their troops, the Huaxia Kingdom would directly abandon the three cities. This made them dumbfounded and filled with ecstasy at the same time. The stick army occupied the three cities overnight.
Not only did they occupy the city, they were also filled with pride and unspeakable elation. When the news came back to the capital of Bangzi Kingdom, the leader of Bangzi Kingdom, Li Chengxiang, couldn't believe it was true.
But soon, the eyes of Li Chengxiang and other royal ministers from the Bangzi Kingdom shone brightly, and the thought that came to their minds was that the Huaxia Kingdom was really in trouble. They don't even dare to fight with them. Does this mean that their Bangzi Kingdom can really destroy China and take the whole of China into its pocket? !
With this idea, the entire Bangzi Kingdom could no longer suppress this idea. The Bangzi Kingdom, which originally had an army of 300,000, quickly began to expand its army. In less than half a month, they had expanded their army by another 200,000, regardless of whether the state treasury had enough money to support such a large army.
The new army is training and sending to the border. They are preparing to dispatch 350,000 troops to march directly into China and capture China in one fell swoop.
They seem to have forgotten how the powerful army of the Jin Kingdom that once beat them howling was destroyed by the Chinese army. In their hearts, they instinctively feel that the Jin Kingdom may be in decline. If they are allowed to send troops, They can also destroy the Jin Kingdom.
Once such a mentality arises, it can no longer be suppressed, and the devil in the hearts of the subjects of Bangzi Kingdom is released.
Just as Bangzi Kingdom was preparing to destroy China, Yunze had already completed his wedding with Hu Sanniang, Luo Yunxi and two Western princesses. One day one month after the wedding, Yunze led 100,000 people's army elites to the East Road Governor's Mansion.
At the same time, at the naval headquarters in Yongcheng, the Chinese Navy, which had already built two hundred steam warships, dispatched a hundred warships from above Yongcheng to march towards Bangzi Kingdom.
There were also 300 supply ships accompanying them. In addition to supplying materials, these supply ships also brought 50,000 elite people of the People's Army, led by Yue Pengju. They were planning to land from the coast of Bangzi Kingdom and directly enter Hanfu, the capital of Bangzi Kingdom.
China's intelligence network has not yet spread to Bangzi Country. As for whether Bangzi Country has a navy, no matter whether the other party has a navy or not, we still have to dispatch a navy.
As time passed little by little, it came to three months after the withdrawal of troops from the three cities in Fubei. On this day, the 60,000-strong vanguard of the Bangzi Kingdom came to Lianqing City. At this time, Lienqing City only had a total strength of 30,000 troops, except for the troops mobilized from various places.
The Bangzi Kingdom's intelligence collection was pretty good, but they didn't know where they collected the true and false strength of Lian Qingcheng's troops. Sixty thousand troops were dispatched, but they did not attack the city immediately.
Instead, they were waiting for the 50,000-strong army to be reinforced from behind. After all, Lian Qingcheng's army numbered 30,000. If they wanted to attack the city, they would need at least three times more troops to be sure of taking the city.
Although the Bangzi Kingdom thinks they are pretty good, they still have some self-awareness when it comes to siege. I know that although Lien Qing City only has 30,000 defenders, it is still difficult to break through the city.
Of the 110,000 troops, almost 30,000 were new troops. Most of the 240,000 troops following behind were new troops. These new troops were still in training, so they did not join the attack on Lian Qing. The siege of the city.
On the city wall, Lu Junyi looked at the 60,000 troops outside the city and frowned. He felt a little angry and had a strong fighting spirit in his heart. He really wanted to rush out of the city and fight with the stick army on the opposite side. .
But Yunze's order was to let him defend the city and not go out to fight, and let the Bangzi Army be proud for a while first. Otherwise, Lu Junyi's 30,000-strong army can definitely crush the 60,000-strong army on the opposite side into dregs.
The people in the city felt somewhat desperate when they saw that the People's Army in the city had no plans to leave the city to fight the enemy. Many of these people had withdrawn from the three cities in Fubei.
At this time, other people in the city felt vaguely uneasy because the People's Army did not launch a counterattack against the Bangzi Army. They instinctively felt that the People's Army was afraid of the Bangzi Army.
But they don't believe this fact. After all, even the People's Army of the Jin Kingdom can be destroyed. Is the People's Army really afraid of a small and small country?
Just when the people were anxious, 50,000 reinforcements from the Bangzi Army outside the city also arrived. The leader of the vanguard army was named Li Yuanzong. I heard that he was a god-like existence in the Bangzi Army. When he was fighting against the Jin people, He held off the Jin army for several months.
It was precisely because of him that the Kingdom of Jin temporarily gave up its plan to destroy the Bangzi Kingdom. Instead, he concentrated on attacking Jingchao. After Li Yuanzong, the commander of the other 230,000 troops was named Pu Chenggui. It is said that he was the military god as famous as Li Yuanzong. His record is no worse than Li Yuanzong.
If Li Yuanzong resisted the Jin army for several months and forced the Jin army to give up the invasion of Bangzi country, then he was the only person in Bangzi country who had defeated the Jin army.
Although the battle was against 8,000 Jin Army cavalry, and he had 60,000 Bangzi Cavalry, after the first battle, nearly 40,000 cavalry were lost, and the Jin Army also lost more than 6,000 people. The battle damage ratio between the two sides cannot be compared.
But it is a fact that they defeated the Jin Army. After all, Bangzi Country has been losing since the first battle with the Jin Army. Even if it is a tragic victory, they are worthy of pride.
With these two military gods coming to attack China, Li Chengxiang, the leader of the Bangzi Kingdom, is very confident. Their two military gods are the god generals who can destroy the country, and the first country they will destroy will be the big country of China. Think about Li Chengxiang He was extremely excited, waiting for the moment when he stepped into the land of China and became the emperor of China.
The 110,000-strong army had already begun to approach Lianqing City at this time, and began to move ladders and siege vehicles towards the city.
The Bangzi Army even shouted war trumpets, shouting that they would win, and prepared to attack the city with high spirits. The huge shouts passed into the city, making the people in the city look a little frightened.
What remained unchanged was the people's army defending the city. Looking at the stick soldiers under the city wall, there was a trace of fighting spirit that had been suppressed for a long time in their eyes. They were waiting for the moment when their fighting spirit completely broke out.
