Chapter 1070 Where is the most important?


Chapter 1070 Which is the most important place?

Ji Nancheng fought vigorously and threw it silently.

Due to the strict blockade, Jiangling didn't know what was happening here at all. After all, the two places were more than twenty miles apart, and it took one day to march without interference. Considering the reality that the river network was dense, the large army would still be in one day. I can't walk twenty miles, after all, the more people there are, the slower the marching speed, and the fewer people, the faster it is.

From a purely military perspective, Ji Nancheng should not be defended at all, but from a human heart and political perspective, it has to be defended. After all, this is an era of wealthy political families, and you have to fight the "Aristocratic View" battle.

Of course, Tao Zhen was still useless after fighting the battle of observation.

When he was taken to the Liang army camp, his expression was extremely devastated. There were almost no high-level officials who received him, and he was greeted with overwhelming interrogation - fortunately, he did not move, so he saved some face.

On the 14th, Jiang Ke, the governor of the Western Route Army, moved to Ji Nancheng and ordered the rear to speed up the transfer of resources to prepare for the next stage of attack on Jiangling.

Almost at the same moment of entering the city, the enemy troops emerged from the southeast attacked and killed dozens of Liang soldiers who were out to pick them. It is through these people that they have obtained the news that Ji Nan fell and Tao Zhen was unaware of his life and death.

Tao Bin, who was guarding Jiangling, heard it and was speechless for a while.

After reacting, the first thing to do was to stock up as much food, equipment and guard equipment as possible, and urge reinforcements repeatedly.

The news also quickly reached Tao Kan, who was stationed in Huarong.

He didn't have any strange expression on his face. Isn't this what he should have thought of?

In recent days, his energy has been involved in the Eastern Front again.

After the Shicheng was defeated, Jingling and Yangkou were exposed to the enemy's troops.

He had to lead troops from land and sea to advance eastward to support the soldiers of Jiangzhou.

And he was also lucky. He actually caught a relatively aggressive Liang army. He first used a navy to cross the river and fired a crossbow at the same time, so that the Liang army brigade on the north bank of the river could not be rushed, and then mobilized the main force to attack from land and land. , after eating this army, he won a small victory of more than 700 beheadings.

Then, taking advantage of the strong morale of the army, he rushed north and fought with the Liang army on the north bank, but was directly driven back to the south bank.

Through this series of battles, it was once again proved that the Jin army could not defeat the Liang army in field battles, even the Jingzhou Legion that was more capable of fighting.

Therefore, he could only take advantage of his familiar geography and the navy's strong combat power as much as possible, and launch sneak attacks from the flanks from time to time, causing trouble for Huang Biao's troops, so that they could not attack the city with all their strength.

As for the Western Front, to be honest, he only sent a small number of troops to raid the Liang army who were picking outside, trying to make them unable to eat hot rice or drink hot soup, and their morale was reduced.

This is the plan. But just as Shao Xun once lamented that the plan formulated before the war had never been implemented as it was, Tao Kan's plan was also distorted.

The fall of Ji Nancheng is a heavy blow.

The city is gone, and the battle to defend Jiangling can start. In addition to Jingling and Yangkou, Tao Kan also has to take into account the direction of Jiangling, so he can't even clone it.

The pressure given by Liang Jun is very great!

The war has been fought to the present day, and it is almost irresistible.

The morale of the soldiers was also a little depressed. Some people have even proposed that it is time to consider the blockages of cities south of the Mianshui River and north of the Yangtze River. That area has been developed since the Eastern Wu era, with "low soil and fertile land and abundant marsh", "rich land and fish and rice". The people of Wu and Wei and Jin Dynasties are here, and they all rely on these places to provide resources.

Tao Kan didn't say anything. He knew that what the Generals said was not unreasonable, but now it is not the time. Now it needs to be dragged through the period when the enemy's troops are the sharpest.

In addition, does anyone still remember Xiangyang now? Does anyone want to rescue the Xiangyang defenders? The two cities of Xiangfan seem to have been deliberately forgotten by everyone.

*******


On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, it snowed in Jianye.

At the grand ceremony of the sun, the ministers argued endlessly, but in the end they did not argue with a result.

The only thing that can be accomplished is probably to determine the year name for next year: Taichang asked the emperor to choose one of "Xianhe", "Yonghe" and "Taihe".

Sima chose Taihe.

He is very pure and filial. He has not changed the era name for only three months left this year, but has changed the era name from Taihe on the first day of the first lunar month next year.

After a long time of meaningless quarrel, Sima returned to the bedroom-style Qian Hall.

This hall is the emperor's bedroom, and construction started almost at the same time as the Tai Chi Hall, but the progress is very slow because there is no money. It was not until Sima Rui died that he had almost achieved his cultivation and could barely live.

Sima has moved here now, and Yinan of Queen Mountain also sleeps here because the palace that belongs to her has not started yet. In the palace, the emperor and the queen are both "monarchs" and have their own exclusive sleeping halls. .

"Today--" Sima hesitated and hesitated.

"There are only two of you and my husband here." Shan Yinan said.

Sima remembered Wang Dao's words and was a little confused. Finally, he decided to ask the queen for advice: "Today, someone in the palace advised someone to impeach Tao Shiheng. On the grounds that he lost his troops and lost his territory and was extremely incompetent, he should deprive him of his position."< br>


Shan Yinan did not express his attitude, but only looked at Sima and asked softly: "What does the Prime Minister mean?"

Sima said immediately, "The Prime Minister has not spoken a word, so there is a dispute." When Shan Yinan heard this, he understood it and said, "The Prime Minister must still want to use Tao Shiheng."

"But I heard that Tao Shiheng and the Prime Minister were not in harmony."

"One time and another time. The Prime Minister looks at the overall situation and will definitely consider it comprehensively. He will not take some disagreements to heart." Shan Yinan said firmly: "Your Majesty, don't blame Tao Shiheng too hard."

"Why?" Sima said in confusion: "The discussions are raging, and they all say that the bandits surrounded Jiangling and Xiangyang and forced to surrender to Xincheng and Shangyong. They should be punished with serious punishment."

"Who are they?" Shan Yinan suddenly stood up, strengthened his tone and asked.

Sima saw the queen's face slightly changed color, and was shocked and said in a hurry: "Led by Liu Dalian."

Shan Yinan took a deep breath, and his plump breasts fluctuated and said, "Your Majesty only needs to remember one sentence. Even though Tao Shiheng has many things, he has no ambitions. He is in Jingzhou, and the situation in Jingzhou will be maintained and will not decline. The enemy will not rebel. With Tao Shiheng here, the two states of Jing and Xiang will be safe."

Sima nodded repeatedly after hearing this, saying, "What the Queen said is very much."

Loyalty is more important than anything else, especially nowadays.

Shan Yinan stopped looking at him, put his hands in front of his abdomen, and paced in the hall.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

After a while, he said, "I believe that the thief Shao is already recruiting the wealthy families in Jingzhou. The court can only rely on Xiangyang, Jinan, Jiangling, Shicheng and other places to hold on to the point of turning around. Tao Shiheng fought an ugly battle, but it may not be used in the wrong way. Soldier. ”

Sima listened in a daze.

"I'm not in military affairs." Shan Yinan stopped and said, "However, looking at the old pictures of Eastern Wu, I found that it was in stalemate with Cao Wei and the National Dynasty in Anlu, Shicheng and Huarong. Anlu and Shicheng changed hands repeatedly, but only It is impossible to end here, and it is impossible to go deep south to the Yangtze River. Sun Wu built cities and blockades south of the Mian River and north of the Yangtze River, so the soldiers were able to eat enough and the people were rich. After accumulating wealth for several years, they could even be able to Go north to recover lost territory. I think there must be a reason why the north and south are stalemate here, but it is not easy to guess."

Sima has listened to ministers discussing military affairs every day, and his literacy has improved rapidly. He has already had a preliminary impression of military struggle. Sometimes he can even interrupt and say a few words, although he doesn't know whether what he said is right or wrong.

After hearing Shan Yinan's words, he felt it made sense and said, "Tao Shiheng flew continuously, please help the soldiers and horses. Cai Mo said bluntly that Jingzhou is dangerous, and the Xiangyang defenders are like hostages, so please help the soldiers. However, the general Zhang of the thief, Shouchun, is a general. Shuo besieged Hefei New City, and said he wanted to go to Dongguan, conquer Liyang, and drink Magua Step. This journey is also very important, the queen..."

Shan Yinan's hands subconsciously pinched them together and rubbed them unconsciously. After a while, he said, "Your Majesty, Liyang and Guangling are particularly important. Once Shao's thief attacked this place, it seems that there is still a big river blocking it, but in fact the situation is over. Jianye Someone will surrender and rebel in the vicinity, so the thief must not succeed here.”

After saying that, he sighed softly and said, "Zhuge Daoming is in charge of Huaiyin, and the soldiers of the water and land fought hard, barely blocking Li Chong from Huaibei. The Shan Governor personally led his troops to Hefei to support Xincheng. After several battles, Shao Bing stopped him. On the north bank of Shishui. If you want to increase your troops, Huaiyin and Hefei should be the best. Jingzhou can only be supported by Tao Shiheng."

After saying that, he looked at Sima Li's eyes and said, "Try to push the bandits away from Jianye, the farther away, the better. Although Tao Shiheng has few soldiers, where can the soldiers be said to be abundant? If it really doesn't work, you can order the soldiers of Xiangzhou counties to be transferred. Horse, go north to reinforce Tao Shiheng. Jianye is the key, and the hearts of the people are the root, Your Majesty should not have any doubts."

In fact, Jianye still has some military strength, mainly the imperial guards controlled by Wang Shu. But this army cannot be used easily, not to mention that as the battle situation in Jingzhou is in danger, the Shen family of Jiangnan actually "disregards the overall situation" and rebels. The court has dispatched tens of thousands of people to suppress it.

Fortunately, Shen's rebellion did not receive any response from other Jiangdong families, and they sent people to persuade him to submit to the court immediately, but he would not blame him for the past.

At present, the imperial guards and rebels have begun to fight, and the king's army is not good at first, but Qian suddenly stabs Shen from the back, and the situation of the battle gradually becomes clear and can be pacified soon.

"That's all." Sima also sighed softly.

There must be no trouble in Jianye. Once something happens, the situation will immediately take a sharp turn for the worse.

To protect Jianye, there will be no problems in Hefei and Huaiyin. Even if you raise troops, equipment, and money and food, you still need to use these two places.

"Chengdu Li's wife was short-sighted and robbed Jin territory. Your Majesty should not be too worried." Shan Yinan said again: "There is an uncivilized land in Nanzhong, so let the governor and county magistrate try their best to maintain it."



Li Cheng is indeed a little short-sighted.

They actually took advantage of the Liang and Jin war to send troops to capture the Ningzhou counties that were still under the hands of the Dajin, which made people very angry.

Some people even pointed out that there are no need for many soldiers to attack Nanzhong, and Li Xiong mainly focused on winning over local chiefs. What is really worth worrying about is that their troops went out of the gorge and attacked Badong.

Can the court still draw troops to support Badong? It's very difficult.

Thinking of this, Shan Yinan felt a little tired, and she felt like she was burdened with a heavy burden, which made her breathless.

Every day is trembling, every day is soothing people's hearts, every day is worried...

Shan Yinan even missed the time when he was a princess. He was relaxed, comfortable and comfortable. Every day he thought about taking care of the courtyard, planting flowers and plants, or sending people to the fields, operating industries, and even writing letters with the gentry women and talking freely. Poetry and music theory.

She is not born to like military and national affairs.

Like Tao Shiheng, she was just trying hard to maintain it.

"If you are really worried," Shan Yinan said at last, "After pacifying Shen's family, thousands of imperial guards can be dispatched to travel west and reinforce Jingzhou."
