"promise!"
The messenger set off immediately.
At this time, Liu Wenqin and others had already gone to Zhengzhou and were dispatching urgent troops to Nanyang.
Li Jing's 80,000 troops have already pressed hard against the four counties south of Jingzhou, Bai Qi, Qi Lanyin, and Yu Haoming. There are a total of 15 armies in the three routes, advancing by water.
And Dongfang Jie is not a good person either. He wears a battle armor and goes to the front line.
The momentum of the Jingzhou army is not weak at all, and the fifty Shenwu cannons demonstrate the great power of Chen's country. In addition, a hundred small Shenwu cannons also accompanied the army on the expedition.
The small Shenwu cannon has a firing range of about one thousand meters, an effective range of three hundred to four hundred, and is the most accurate.
But the disadvantage is that it is easy to explode the chamber. Another problem is that it is difficult to eliminate heat. After bombing for a certain period of time, the small Shenwu cannon must be naturally shaded before it can be used. otherwise! The hidden danger is very great.
certainly! This time! It is almost a game between two powerful countries. There are 200,000 people on the frontal battlefield in the west. The Jingzhou Navy fleet guarding the Huaichuan River Basin was 40,000 strong. On the other side, in the Nanyang area, Pan Zhang had 30,000 troops.
There are 50,000 soldiers and horses north of Jingzhou, and 30,000 soldiers and horses guarding the south of Jingzhou. certainly! There are 20,000 soldiers and horses guarding the Huaichuan Water Village in Jingnan. In other words, there were only 10,000 troops in Jingnan City at this time.
It can be said that the 350,000 troops in Jingzhou at this time all rushed to the battlefield.
However, unlike the main battlefield, the 50,000 troops led by Bai Qi faced Dongfangjie's 200,000 troops. In other words, Bai Qi wanted to hold back Dongfang Jie's frontal army before Qi Lanyin's 50,000-strong naval force captured the Huaichuan Water Village in Jingnan.
certainly! Prior to this, Dongfang Yu was not prepared to lead the army personally, and all combat affairs were left to Liu Wenqin and Xu Meng for unified command.
He wants to personally sneak into Longling, Jingzhou, to visit and recruit talents.
Therefore! Before the army set off, he had to hurry up and enter Jingzhou first.
Four days later!
Dongfang Yu, Xuan Ziyuan, and Yu Wenhu, with hundreds of secret guards outside, followed secretly and sneaked into Jingzhou.
Jingnan City, this county town that is only slightly smaller than the capital of Qin, now! Like a dragon crouching and a tiger perched, it caught Dongfang Yu's eyes.
"Master, we are facing Jingzhou. Do you need the people from Jinyu Haiya to help us?" Yu Wenhu asked.
Dongfang Yu shook his head slightly, "No, since it's a private visit, Jingzhou naturally doesn't know that I'm here."
"To be on the safe side, don't bother the people in Jinyu Haiya to avoid being exposed."
"promise!"
The two of them bowed.
This group of people disguised themselves as a caravan. It shouldn't be so easy for them to reveal their identity!
"After four days of walking, let's find a place to eat first!"
Not far away! It is the largest inn in Jingzhou! Those who come here are either high-ranking officials and nobles from Jingzhou or people doing business from other states.
When I met Dongfang Yu, the waiter and the others, I could tell at a glance that the people who came were definitely not ordinary people.
He quickly greeted us with a smile, "Three distinguished guests, please eat or stay in the hotel."
"Have a meal!"
"Have some of the food in your store. Money is not an issue." Dongfang Yu said. It's not easy to get to the place where we have a hot meal, so we have to treat ourselves to a good meal.
Immediately! He threw out a tael of silver at random and gave it to the waiter as a tip.
After weighing the money, the waiter in the shop was relieved of his worries. After all! How can a person who can throw away money at will be an ordinary person?
"Okay! Wait a moment, gentlemen! I'll arrange a private room for you." The waiter said.
But Dongfang Yu stopped him, "No, just arrange a round table in some corner. My brothers will be arranged next to me."
There were ten people in their group, including the three of them!
"Okay, sir!" The waiter immediately jumped down.
"Ouch! Have you heard? Qin's three armies, totaling 280,000, are coming to kill us, Da Chen!"
"It seems that King Qin has long had the ambition to dominate the world?"
"No! I've been lying down for so many years just to wait until the world is in chaos? I just don't know if our Da Chen's national strength can stop the Qin Qin army."
"Is this easy to say? Back then, the Daliao and Huangpao uprisings were both known as millions of armies! In the end! It's not like the King of Qin beat the crap out of him."
There was chatter around the inn, discussing the Qin army's attack on Jingzhou. However, Dongfang Yu could hear fear and fear from some people's mouths.
"Master! The people of Jingzhou are not united. It seems that our Qin State's attack on Jingzhou should be over soon!" Xuan Ziyuan whispered.
"Um!"
Dongfang Yu responded, but in his heart, he was not thinking about whether he could capture Jingzhou, but he was afraid that the King of Chu from Jiangdong could not help but come to Jingzhou and kick him in the face. If so! So! The pressure that the Qin army will face is very great.
…
At this time, the court was frightened.
Especially Dongfang Chang, his army is preparing to leave Weiguan! result! Qin's 80,000-strong army has already reached the Wei Pass.
Dongfang Chang was immediately confused by this set of fantastic operations.
"Didn't all the Qin State's army go south to attack Jingzhou? How come there are still 80,000 troops arriving at our Wei Pass." It's not so much unbelievable as it is! Dongfang Chang was very suspicious of Qin's national power.
"Your Majesty! Withdraw your troops! Don't try to provoke Qin. This is not good for our court." A minister said.
"Yes! Now the Qin State's 80,000-strong army is approaching Weiguan, and the generals leading the army are Bai Qi and Zhang Han. These two are famous generals of the Qin State, and their ability to lead troops in battle is extremely strong? "
All the ministers were unwilling to antagonize Qin.
But the more this happened, the more Dongfang Chang felt unhappy.
"You are all ministers of Dawu. It's fine if my ministers don't make suggestions! But why do you all want to go to King Qin? Am I not worthy of your service?"
"If you ask me not to fight, I will tell you. I will go to Xiaoguan in person to see who is more powerful, his Qin army, or my flying dragon and flying tiger army." Dongfang Chang was so angry that he withdrew directly from the court. He kicked and hissed angrily and returned to the side hall.
"The Qin army is powerful. Does Your Majesty really want to make an enemy of the Qin army?" Jiang Li, who was following Dongfang Chang, couldn't help but ask.
Dongfang paused and said coldly: "Jiang Li, you are the person I trust the most. Could it be that you are going to oppose me?"
"I don't dare... I'm just worried about Your Majesty..." Jiang Li hesitated and immediately closed his mouth.
And none of them could guess what Dongfang Chang was thinking.
A battle with Qin, regardless of success or failure, is inevitable. Instead of hunkering down in the imperial capital, eating and waiting to die, it would be better to fight with them.
perhaps! There is still a chance to save and reverse Dawu's fate.
