King Fu Jian was defeated so quickly that Jia Fu had an illusion in his mind. It seemed that King Fu Jian was a ragtag group of people who were completely defeated when they encountered elite soldiers and horses.
But both Feng Yi and Jia Fu have studied history books over the years and know what achievements Fu Jian and Wang Meng made in history.
To be honest, Feng Yi and Jia Fu felt a little ashamed of Wang Meng.
Being able to assist the monarch in destroying enemy countries one after another, and being able to govern the country internally and unify the north, such achievements are rare in history. Anyone who can do this is none other than Qiangu Renjie.
How could the soldiers and horses trained in Changsha be a ragtag group of such outstanding people? Wang Meng's death so quickly can only mean one thing, that is, Xia Jun is too strong.
"The Xia army sent troops to attack Fu Jian Wang Meng, most likely to prepare for the future. General, be careful of the Xia army going north to attack Xiangyang!" Liu Muzhi reminded.
Feng Yi pondered slightly, but didn't say nonsense like it's impossible, I don't believe it, because he also had such a guess in his heart.
The top generals who can leave a strong mark in history cannot be extremely slow idiots. On the contrary, their battlefield sense is extremely sharp.
The Daxia Dynasty sent troops to attack Changsha during this period, which made them realize that something was wrong and became somewhat alert.
"Indeed, the Xia army wants to move from south to north to eliminate hidden dangers in the rear before attacking Xiangyang! General, we must report this matter to Luoyang and continue to recruit soldiers and train in Xiangyang and Nanyang to build the south of Xiangyang. We must set up a defensive line on both sides to prevent the Xia army from suddenly moving northward!"
Liu Laozhi followed.
Feng Yi nodded and looked at each other with Jia Fu. Daxia Dynasty, the southern hegemon, had an impact on the general trend of the world. Now that the other party suddenly sent troops to attack Changsha, they should report it as soon as possible.
"Just wait two more days. Even if the Xia army really wants to attack Luoyang, it won't happen overnight. In the past two days, I will send people to collect information and find out how King Fu Jian was defeated. Then I will send the detailed information to Luoyang!"
Feng Yi said in a deep voice without delay or haste.
He also wanted to know what happened to Fu Jian and Wang Meng, the pair of monarchs and ministers, and why they were gone for several days. If Xia Jun is really too strong, then he will report to Luoyang and dispatch a few generals to support him.
Dongting Lake Xiangkou.
After Xiangyin was captured, huge Xia army warships began to enter the Xiangjiang River through the estuary. After passing through Xiangyin, they divided into two groups. One group was led by Han Qinhu and Zhang Xutuo and went west to meet the Xiangjiang River. At Zijiang, we first captured Yiyang, and then followed Zijiang to attack Shaoyang.
Zijiang River and Xiangjiang River are both one of the Three Hunan and Four Rivers. The cities along this river must be brought under the jurisdiction of Daxia.
As for the other four rivers, Yuanjiang and Lijiang, we don’t need to worry about them for the time being... These four rivers are the main transportation water systems in Jingnan. Mastering the four rivers is equivalent to mastering Jingnan.
The most important of the four waters is naturally the Xiang River.
The troops and horses along this route were commanded by Qi Jiguang, with Yang Su, Deng Yu, and Feng Sheng as generals, and they captured Changsha and Hengyang along the river.
Yue Fei himself led 50,000 soldiers and horses to sit in Xiangyin, personally supervising more than 300,000 surrendered troops, as well as three severely wounded generals, Du Li, Yuan Lang, and Samoko.
When the three of Du Li fought with Zhang Xutuo and others on the city wall, they sustained themselves for a period of time with their strength and bravery. Then when they were about to be defeated and die, Fu Jian and Wang Meng died first.
The lord and generals all fell, and the remaining generals and soldiers were immediately defeated.
Du Li, Yuan Lang and Samoko had not been in Changsha for a long time, and they were still barbarian kings. They did not care about the humiliation of the emperor and the death of his ministers, and they would work hard to avenge Fu Jian.
On the battlefield, when Fu Jian is not dead, they will fight as hard as they can, but if Fu Jian dies, or they try their best but are defeated and captured, don't expect them to prefer death over surrender.
These three people are like Zhang Liao and Zhang He during the Three Kingdoms period. They surrendered decisively when they couldn't do anything.
After Yue Fei defeated the enemy, he never had the habit of killing prisoners. He quickly spread the news of the surrender of the three men to Jiangling, temporarily made the three men and many surrendered soldiers into civilian husbands, and conveniently built fields and canals near Xiangyin.
Obviously
He is an unparalleled martial sage in the world. When he is sitting in one place, he can show his extraordinary ability in martial arts.
Historically, when Yue Fei conquered the six counties of Xiangyang, he set up a large-scale camp to recruit exiles and stabilize the area. If Wang Jingneng could come here, he would understand that in addition to commanding troops, Yue Fei also had strong talents in governing local areas.
The Xiangshui River rolls through Lingqu from north to south and extends to Lingnan.
In the future, when the Great Xia Dynasty wanted to conquer Lingnan, this river would be the main channel for transporting troops and supplies. At this time, Xia Jun's navy was galloping along the river and rushed to the foot of Changsha City at the fastest speed.
"King Fu Jian is dead, why don't you quickly open the city and surrender?"
Because of the formation's killing of Xing Daorong, Murong Chong was promoted to guerrilla by the front line and served as a vanguard, leading his troops to the city of Changsha. Changsha is the foundation of Fu Jian and Wang Meng's hard work.
The city is thick and heavy, and there are many guards on the top of the city.
Hearing Murong Chong's shouting, the city wall became visibly chaotic, and there were a few faint sounds of slashing. Soon, the city gate was opened. Murong Chong immediately led people to take over the city gate.
Changsha's former Qin forces, 90% of their elites and a large number of soldiers were in Xiangyin, and Yue Fei led his army to take over. The generals who stayed in Changsha were of average ability. When they heard about the death of their lord, they were trembling with fear and immediately chose to surrender.
The two shooting stars that set during the white sunset not long ago were seen by everyone. Therefore, the general guard did not have any doubts about Murong Chong's words.
"What a pity, it actually fell!"
After sending someone to take over the city gate, Murong Chong's eyes flashed, and he felt a little regretful.
If Changsha City resisted resolutely, he might be able to lead his troops to attack the city and seize the city. But now that the other side surrendered voluntarily, his achievements were greatly reduced.
The original credit was 100%, but now only 30% is left.
Murong Chong also wanted to make further contributions and be promoted to a general commanding tens of thousands of soldiers... After he entered the army, he had heard that His Majesty was planning to expand the army again.
The original more than two million soldiers have been formed. The guerrillas, generals, and generals are all carrots and pits, and there are few vacancies. Doubling the army would mean a shortage of half of the officers at the middle and lower levels.
For newcomers like Murong Chong, this is the best opportunity for advancement.
At this stage, the Daxi Dynasty had not been established for a long time, and the military hierarchy was not stable. Promotions were all based on military merit, and seniority was ranked second.
If he had to wait more than ten years, promotion for meritorious service would not be a problem, but if he wanted to be promoted continuously, it would be impossible to advance three levels from Deputy Qianhu to General at once.
soon.
Xia Jun's follow-up main force arrived, and Qi Jiguang led Yang Su and others to the city gate. "well done!"
Seeing that Murong Chong had taken control of the city gate and acted cautiously, Qi Jiguang praised him and then rode into the city. Next, he would stay in Changsha and let Yang Su, Deng Yu, and Feng Sheng lead their troops to raid cities in Hengyang and Changsha.
The generals in the Great Xia Army this time were all generals of the ninth level or above. Among them, Yang Su and others were newcomers who were in urgent need of meritorious service. They each led a troop and quickly demonstrated their abilities to the fullest.
In less than five days, all the cities that King Fu Jian fought hard to capture were wiped out by the Xia army.
Those Chengchiwubao that had not been attacked by Fu Jian hurriedly sent envoys to Changsha before the Xia army arrived, surrendering unconditionally. There are many chieftains who are also willing to surrender.
The territory of the Daxia Dynasty, especially Jingnan Road, was estimated to have more than three or four provinces under its jurisdiction. ...
The actions of the Daxia Dynasty are the focus of attention of all forces in the Chinese world.
As time passed, the news of King Meng's death spread throughout the world, and the Qin and Han heroes far away in Guanzhong also learned the details of this battle.
When they knew that Xia Jun casually sent out three powerful men in the heavenly realm, Yue Fei, Han Qinhu, and Qi Jiguang, as well as many famous historical generals to defeat Jingnan in one fell swoop, they were all shocked.
In just a short time, the Great Xia Dynasty has produced so many powerful people in the heavenly realm.
If Daxia is given another period of time, will Xia Jun be able to gain a few more heavenly realms?
After realizing this, the forces such as Qin, Han, Li and Tang paid more attention to Daxia. Among them, Shu Han was even a little jealous... There was no way, Shu Han seemed to have four famous generals, Jiang Wei and Fazheng. , but apart from these people, the talent is thin.
The only famous general who was born in another era is Li Dingguo.
Sichuan and Shu are known as the land of abundance. There are many famous scholars and ministers, but only a handful of them can be called top generals. In China's struggle for hegemony, what has a greater impact on the major dynasties at this stage is the number of powerful generals.
In a world where higher powers exist, strong people, especially those who can show their power on the battlefield, are more important than soldiers and horses.
This was confirmed after the major dynasties in China saw Yue Fei leading seven or eight famous generals to instantly defeat King Fu Jian and Meng Meng. These dynasties once again sent orders to various places to find and recruit generals and warriors.
The two heroes of Murong and Murong who were killed by Xiang Yu were the first to fall from the Heaven Realm. Because Xiang Yu was the one who took action, no one would be surprised.
Later, Xiang Yu fell... He was surrounded and killed by many strong men summoned by Daxia. After the news came out, although other forces were shocked, they also felt that it was understandable. After all, Xiang Yu was not an immortal god. As long as he was a human, he would be killed. will die.
Wang Meng's death was different this time. When he was commanding an army to defend the city, Daxia relied on his numerical advantage to crush him. It was also at this time that everyone realized that the powerful people in the heavenly realm were not safe on the battlefield.
The invincible divine power of a strong man in the acquired heaven realm also fell from the altar at this moment. Jinling.
Reports of the battle in Jingnan also reached the city. Under the signal of the Privy Council, the messengers kept shouting victory along the road and publicized the victory in Jingnan.
Wherever the messenger passed, many people in Jinling City, scholars and the families of the distinguished officials all cheered for him. Ordinary people were honored because Daxia had another great victory in the war, and they were proud to be the people of Daxia.
The family members of the major nobles in the city were excited about their children's victory after joining the army. Many family members and tribesmen of Hou Bo's family participated in martial arts competitions and were incorporated into the army to participate in this competition. Go to war.
Xia's army's victory means that their family members are safe and are very likely to make some achievements. As long as they have merit, they can be promoted and become an important member of the family.
When the good news spread throughout Jinling. Wang Jing is not in the palace. At this time, Shen Yi and Gao Ying were in charge of government and military affairs. "Come here, send the good news to Qingjiang immediately!"
Gao Xi called his subordinates and gave quick instructions.
The clerks in the Privy Council have been handling extremely complicated affairs for many years, and they have already been trained to be very crisp. After hearing the instructions, they will immediately take orders and do the work without any delay.
After handling some documents sent by Jiangling and Yiling, Gao Xi couldn't help but glance towards the north. It seems that I can penetrate the rich palace and see the scene in the north through the endless void.
"Do you think your Majesty can invite Han Xin to Jinling when he personally goes to Qingjiang this time?" Gao Xi suddenly asked.
Liu Bowen smiled and said, "Since Han Xin's whereabouts have been revealed, he must have the intention to defect to His Majesty. Brother Zhaoxuan asked knowingly." Gao Xi also laughed and said with emotion: "There is no way, after all, he is an unparalleled national scholar. If your Majesty can get help from Han Xin, the Immortal of Soldiers, our army's strategy of heading north to the Central Plains will be truly confident!"
"Although General Yue is also an unparalleled general, there are many top generals in the north. Li Jing, Li Ji, Guo Ziyi and Su Dingfang of the Li Tang Dynasty, and Ma Yuan Wu Han and Geng Yan of the Eastern Han Dynasty are not easy to match."
"Maybe it's because General Yue and I live in different eras. Although I know how powerful General Yue is, when I think of the many famous generals in the north, I don't have much confidence. Only Han Xin. When I hear this name, I feel that great things will happen in the future. Expect······"
Yue Fei and Han Xin are both among the top ten famous generals in history.
But Han Xin's name can make a hero like Gao Xi subconsciously feel confident that as long as Han Xin leads the army on his own side, he will never fail in sending troops.
Liu Bowen was speechless when he heard this.
To him, Han Xin and Yue Fei are the same, both top-notch generals.
"The more troops Han Xin orders, the better. With Han Xin commanding the troops, the better."
, it can indeed give people a 30% chance of winning! ” The Bu Zhao next to him also echoed.
Obviously, he had the same thoughts as Gao Lei and ranked Han Xin above Yue Fei. ...
Inside Qingjiang City.
Wang Jing settled in the government office. After hearing about Han Xin's whereabouts, he immediately came with Yu Yunwen and a group of personal guards in a royal boat. To show his solemnity, he did not take the Yufeng Flying Boat.
After all, Yufeng Feizhou was too fast and too hidden to be easily discovered. If others couldn't see it, how could they know that Wang Jing was so thirsty for talents that he traveled thousands of miles north to seek talents in person in order to invite Han Xin?
"Your Majesty, Han Xin's whereabouts have been determined. He is in the south of the city." Yu Yunwen reported softly.
"Okay, bring your gifts and I'll go visit in person!" Wang Jing said immediately.
Yu Yunwen's eyes moved slightly, and he understood in his heart. He immediately sent people to prepare for the expedition. He used a six-horse chariot with great fanfare and prepared various rare treasures. Han Xin's whereabouts were revealed, and he obviously intended to defect to Daxia.
The other party has already expressed his intention, so Daxia naturally has to show enough sincerity and attitude.
