Jinzhong, Fengwu Army Camp
At this moment, the first thing Yuan Song did when he came to the camp was to listen to the briefing from the front line...
Staff officer Zheng Chuang also understood Yuan Song's habit. When he saw Yuan Song arriving, he immediately walked over and reported excitedly:
"Master Yuan, there is good news from the front line. The enemy has abandoned Xiaode County, and all three thousand defenders have withdrawn to Jinyang under the cover of night!"
Hearing the news, Yuan Song was also very surprised and asked Zheng Chuang:
"Who sent this news? Have you checked in?"
Facing Yuan Song's inquiry, Zheng Chuang said without hesitation:
"Sir Yuan, this news was sent by the Third Army stationed in Wenshan County. It is said that the scouts of the Third Army have entered Xiaode County!"
"Commander Xun from Wenshan County also sent a letter asking Lord Yuan if he wants to occupy Xiaode County?"
Regarding Zheng Chuang's request for instructions, Yuan Song did not rush to answer. Instead, he came to the sand table and thought about it secretly.
This is not the first time that the Yunbin Army has abandoned the county. As early as last year in the second Yunbin War, Wang Muzhi used this move when facing the counterattack of the Fengwu Army.
At that time, Wang Muzhi gave up the three county towns of Lingyuan, Pingrong and Wankang, and only retained the two county towns of Dagu and Pingyun... ·
The purpose of Wang Muzhi's doing this is that Wang Muzhi knows that Yun Bing's army has limited troops. If every city has to be defended, it will cause Yun Bing's troops to be scattered. At that time, Feng Wu's cavalry will be divided and heavy artillery will attack the fortress. Next, the connection between these cities will be cut off, logistics will be unsustainable, and the cities will be blasted open one by one by Fengwu army's heavy artillery!
Therefore, Wang Muzhi deliberately abandoned three cities and concentrated all his limited troops on the two county towns of Dagu and Pingyun.
The first advantage of doing this is to choose the battlefield in a place that is beneficial to you. The two county towns of Dagu and Pingyun are at odds with each other. They are very close and can support each other. The two cities are also very strong and can effectively resist the Fengwu Army. heavy artillery.
In addition, this can also stretch the Fengwu Army's logistics supply line, and then Wang Muzhi can send cavalry to look for opportunities to try to cut off the logistics supply that delays the Fengwu Army.
It was under Wang Muzhi's strategy that the Second Army of the Fengwu Army, which was attacking Pingyun at the time, suffered a blow. If Xun Ke's Third Division had not come in time, the entire Second Army would have been in danger of collapse. Even so, It also resulted in Wang Muzhi's great victory in Pingyun County with more than 10,000 casualties!
But now Wang Muzhi has repeated his old tricks and voluntarily abandoned Xiaode County again. What does he want to do?
After looking at the sand table and thinking for a while, Yuan Song locked his eyes on the sand table and the coordinates of Yi County, and immediately asked Zheng Chuang:
"What's going on in Heyi County?"
Listening to Yuan Song's inquiry, Zheng Chuang, a staff officer, thought for a while and said:
"General Ye Tao of the Eighth Division has surrounded Heyi County and is shelling Heyi County according to your instructions. The defenders of Heyi County have nothing to do except come out from time to time to try to sneak attack the artillery camp. Special circumstances·······························》
Listening to Zheng Chuang's inquiry, Yuan Song frowned slightly, somewhat unable to understand what kind of medicine Wang Muzhi was selling in this gourd!
To be honest, Xiaode County is not that important in Yuan Song's eyes. Xiaode County only has 3,000 defenders, and the city defense is not very complete. The terrain is not very suitable for defending the city. Overall, it is a city that is easy to attack but difficult to defend. Capturing Xiaode is not difficult for the Fengwu Army!
Therefore, if Yuan Song wanted to capture Xiaode County, he would have asked Xun Ke to capture it long ago. It would not be Yun Bingjun's turn to give up today.
The reason why Yuan Song hesitated to take action was because he wanted to lure Wang Muzhi to send troops from Jinyang to support him, and to deal with as many Yun Bing's troops as possible outside Jinyang City.
As the general who conquered big cities like Yijing and Yujing, Yuan Song can be said to be the most adept at siege and the most experienced general in the Fengwu Army, but this also made Yuan Song
Understand how difficult it is to conquer a big city!
Although Jinyang is not as large as Yujing, it is about the same size as Yijing. It is one of the top five fortified cities in the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The city defense facilities are very complete. Moreover, unlike Fengwu Army's original Yijing and Yujing, Jinyang has reinforcements. of!
The ones currently fighting against them are the local troops from Yunbing Fan Town commanded by Wang Muzhi. There are still more than 100,000 elite forbidden troops in the Zhou Dynasty that have not been used... ·············
It is completely conceivable that once the Fengwu soldiers surrounded Jinyang, even if the finances of the Luo'an court were in difficulty and the life and death of the court were at stake, they would grit their teeth and spend their last silver coins to issue a departure fee for the support of the Forbidden Army soldiers. Jinyang!
Therefore, the time left for the Fengwu Army to attack Jinyang is very limited. Once the Fengwu Army cannot take Jinyang in the short term, things will become more troublesome once the reinforcements from the Forbidden Army arrive. This is why Yuan Song wants to get as many as possible Lure out Jinyang's enemy troops and annihilate them!
The number of soldiers in the Yun Bing Army is numerous. If you annihilate one more outside the city, you can annihilate one less when you attack Jinyang!
And if you say that to attack Jinyang and annihilate an enemy army, you need to use three times or even five times the force, then you may only need twice the force outside Jinyang City to do it!
So if possible, of course it would be more troublesome and labor-saving to annihilate them outside the city!
Once enough Yun Bing's army is annihilated, leaving Jinyang City empty of troops, then the possibility of Fengwu's army quickly taking Jinyang will undoubtedly increase greatly!
Although Yuan Song's idea is good, Wang Muzhi on the opposite side is not a fool. He should have seen Yuan Song's plan, and this time he took the initiative to abandon Xiaode County, which seemed to be sending a signal to Yuan Song... ·······················
I would rather give up the city to you than let your female cadre succeed. Not a single person from Yun Bingjun in Jinyang City will go out to support you!
Although Yuan Song was deeply disappointed by this, he was also a little confused. Did Wang Muzhi's actions mean that he had given up on the 10,000-odd Yun army in Heyi County?
Although Wenshan County was captured by the Fengwu Army before, and the Fengwu Army could use it as a stronghold to cut off the connection between Heyi County and Jinyang City, Xiaode County was still in the hands of the Yunbing Army at that time, and they still had such a Therefore, as long as the enemy troops in Heyi County can break out of the encirclement, they still have a chance to withdraw to Jinyang.
And now Wang Muzhi has withdrawn all the garrison troops in Xiaode County to Jinyang and handed over Xiaode County to the Fengwu Army. This is equivalent to completely closing the door for the Heyi County Yunbin Army to withdraw!
Yuan Song can be said to be deeply puzzled by this. He doesn't understand why Wang Muzhi made such a major change!
You must know that this is a line of defense that Wang Muzhi has carefully deployed for several months. He has paid a lot of blood, especially in Heyi County!
Wang Muzhi not only strengthened the city defense in Heyi County and sent more than 10,000 elite soldiers to take charge of the city defense, but also stored enough food in Heyi County for several months when there was not much food. In the end, he also sent his beloved general Chen Wenzhao sent over.
All these actions are intended to make Heyi County and Wenshan and Xiaode County behind it become a barrier for Jinyang, blocking the conquest of Fengwu Army... ···············
Now that the Fengwu Army has only captured Wenshan County, you have completely overturned your careful deployment over the past few months?
Just when Yuan Song was deeply confused, he also felt Zheng Chuang's gaze, and immediately answered:
"Since the enemy has given up on his own initiative, our army will naturally occupy it! Send the order to Lord Xun!"
After capturing Wenshan County, Xun Ke wanted to continue to attack Xiaode County in one go, but he stopped him. Although Xun Ke faithfully carried out his military orders later, Yuan Song understood that Xun Ke still had some thoughts in his heart. There are some emotions!
After all, Xun Ke, who was promoted to commander of the Third Army under the extraordinary promotion of the commander-in-chief, faced doubts from inside and outside the Fengwu Army. He urgently needed to use solid military exploits to prove his credentials to his colleagues and the commander-in-chief. ability.
And if we can conquer Wenshan County
, after conquering a county, the pressure on him will be reduced a lot!
At that time, Yuan Song was able to order Xun Ke to give up his plan to capture Xiaode County by luring the enemy deeper. However, the enemy troops in Xiaode County had already withdrawn, and Yuan Song had no reason to stop Xun Ke from occupying Xiaode County. County!
After receiving the order, Zheng Chuang immediately went down to deliver the order, while Yuan Song continued to look at the situation on the sand table, constantly thinking about whether Wang Muzhi really planned to abandon Heyi County and abandon the barrier he had carefully designed for several months.
An hour later, Zheng Chuang knocked on the door again and reported to Yuan Song:
"Sir, Zhang Xiaojie from the Coordination Office is here, saying that he has important information that he wants to report to you..."

Yi Jing, Liu Mansion
The head of the Liu family, Liu Yun, was in the bedroom, hugging each other and drinking wine. In addition to the two girls in his arms, three young dancers in the room were constantly dancing in front of Liu Yun. NIU moved their vaginal limbs as thin as willows to show off their graceful figures.
Liu Yun, who was already a little drunk, was transfixed by the fascinating dance in front of him.
When the three dancers finished dancing, Liu Yuncai clapped happily and said:
"Beautiful! It's so beautiful! Come and sit next to me, master!"
As soon as these words came out, the two concubines in his arms were a little dissatisfied, and they all started to complain with jealousy.
Seeing the jealous looks of the two concubines, Liu Yun laughed and put a bite on their faces.
"Don't worry, you two. Master, I bought some elixirs from Dadongsheng yesterday. I will definitely not favor one over the other tonight!"
"Every one of you counts! I'm going to torture you tonight, Master!"
Seeing how angry Liu Yunhao was, several women kept saying flattering words, which made Liu Yun very happy... ········
These few months have been the happiest time in his life. Under his leadership, the Liu family not only successfully obtained the ticket number license issued by Fengwu Army, opened the Daxinchang Ticket Number and successfully entered the ticket number industry, but also Recently, I received instructions from Marshal Ye and was able to open a savings business.
After the opening of the savings business, there was a series of publicity, and the Liu family's Da Xinchang bank account could receive hundreds of thousands of silver every day, and sometimes even thousands of taels of silver a day!
Although he knew that the money was only placed in the ticket number and not all of it belonged to him, Liu Yun was also very satisfied.
Even if he had a hand in such a lucrative business such as bank account savings, the fat on it would be a mountain of gold and silver!
Liu Yun admired Marshal Ye very much every time he thought about this. He really couldn't understand how Marshal Ye came up with such a good idea.
Liu Yun even believed that Marshal Ye could become a wealthy businessman if he did not join the army! Even becoming the richest man in the world in Dazhou is not impossible!
Whenever he looked at the Rishengchang bank in Jiyu next door, completing various tasks step by step under the leadership of Jiang Yuyan, Liu Yun would feel deeply disdainful of this. He felt that Jiang Yuyan was still a woman, with long hair and short knowledge and no business acumen. He could only bribe Marshal Ye with his body.
Holding a bank account and saving is such a valuable asset. You can earn a lot of money with just a little thought. Why bother to work so hard... ········
Just when Liu Yun was enjoying a good life, there was a knock on the door. Liu Yun said impatiently:
"Who is it? What happened?"
As soon as he said this, the voice of housekeeper Liu Huai appeared outside.
"Master, the Fifth Master is here and has something to ask you. He looks very anxious!"
When Liu Yun heard the name Fifth Master, he immediately got a clever idea and went up
Not being impatient for a second and indulging in enjoyment, he immediately stood up and walked out of the room. While arranging his clothes in a hurry, he asked Liu Huai:
"Fifth Master, where is he?"
Facing his master's inquiry, Liu Huai also said quickly:
"The fifth master is in your study, master. He looks very bad-tempered today. Master, please be careful!"
[In view of the general environment,
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yun was shocked, and a look of fear flashed across his expression, but he could only bite the bullet and walk towards the study.
After about a cup of tea, Liu Yun returned to his study. At this time, a gloomy-looking middle-aged Confucian scholar was sitting in the seat that belonged to Liu Yun... ···············
