Chapter 216
After listening to Wu Guang's story, Tang Yin rolled his eyes and muttered: "If I had really fallen and been seriously injured, I would have died a hundred times before you came to rescue me!"
Wu Guang lowered his head and said: "This... this is something that can't be helped." The two countries of Feng and Mo were at war. As the Feng army, they suddenly encountered the Mo army. It was impossible not to take action. Even if they didn't want to fight, they had to take the initiative. Call me!
"Your Majesty, I will send you away from here first!" Shangguan Yuanrang supported Tang Yin, turned around and walked back. On the other side, Xiang Wen and Peng Tai also held one of Qingyu's arms and walked back cautiously.
If the generals under their command were not around, Tang Yin and Qing Yu could still talk like two ordinary people without any inhibitions. Now that their subordinates were present, the two of them didn't know what to say. They looked at each other and turned back silently. .
Back at the edge of the cliff, Shangguan Yuanrang, Wu Guang, Xiang Wen and Peng Tai tied the ropes to Tang Yin and Qingyu respectively. They pulled and pulled to confirm that the ties were strong, and then they shook the ropes vigorously and told the soldiers above that it was okay. Take the rope up.
With the rescue of Feng Mo's two armies, Tang Yin and Qing Yu successfully escaped. Seeing that the king and the general were safe and sound, the soldiers of Feng Mo's and Mo's armies were all overjoyed. They gathered around and immediately separated Tang Yin and Qing Yu, fearing that Suddenly encountered the opponent's poisonous hand.
Liang Qi and Ziying both came to Tang Yin, knelt down and saluted, and said in unison: "I am late to save you, please forgive me!"
Tang Yin smiled indifferently, waved his hand, and signaled the two of them to get up. He looked at Liang Qi, then at Ziying, and said with a smile: "Thanks to you two for arriving in time during this battle at Suyue. By the way, aren't you in Ning?" Why did you suddenly come to Mo country?"
Liang Qi and Ziying looked at each other and smiled, and the former roughly told what happened. Tang Yin nodded while listening. When Liang Qi finished speaking, he couldn't help but admire in his heart.
In terms of commanding troops to fight and strategizing, he is far behind Liang Qi and Ziying. If the person who faced Qingyu had been Liang Qi or Ziying, his own army would never have been defeated so miserably. , there is even a possibility of winning.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin felt bitter in his heart. He felt that as a king, he had really let down the expectations of the public. In terms of academic performance, he was far inferior to the court ministers such as Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen. In terms of martial arts, he was not as good as Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, and Ziying. Even the commander-in-chief is proud of his military power, but there is still a big gap compared with today's top generals such as Shangguan Yuanrang and Lian Ge. If you are not good at writing or martial arts, then what else can you do?
well! Tang Yin sighed. Feng Mo's war wasn't over yet, but his confidence was shattered first.
I don't know what the king is thinking, but seeing that his face is changing from gloomy to bright, Liang Qi and Ziying dare not delay any longer, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's go back to Suyue first. Prime Minister Qiu." Arriving from Bailin to Suyue."
Tang Yin nodded absently, and then he separated from everyone and walked towards Mo Jun. Seeing Tang Yin coming, all the soldiers and generals were extremely nervous. They surrounded Qingyu three levels inside and three levels outside to prevent Tang Yin from getting close.
On the contrary, Qingyu separated the crowd with a smile, walked out of the crowd calmly, and stood in front of Tang Yin. He took the lead in bowing his hands and saluting, and said: "Thank you, His Highness Feng Wang, for taking care of me over the past few days. Qingyu will bear this in mind."
Tang Yin looked at Qingyu noncommittally and said nothing.
Not to mention that Qing Yu felt uncomfortable with his long gaze, even the soldiers of the Mo army were confused as to what Tang Yin was doing. If you have anything to say, just say it. If you don't have anything to say, just leave!
After a long time, when everyone in the Feng and Mo armies was impatient, Tang Yin suddenly bent over, approached Qingyu, and whispered in his ear: "Shao Fang is narrow-minded and has always been suspicious. In this battle, You failed strangely, and this matter will never go well, so be careful." After saying this, he took another deep look at Qingyu, turned around, and walked back to his camp.
Looking at Tang Yin's back, Qingyu was thoughtful. Xiang Wen stepped forward and asked curiously: "General, what did King Feng say to you just now?"
Qingyu came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Xiang Wen reminded: "King Feng has always been cunning and cunning. No matter what he says, the general doesn't have to take it to heart."
Qingyu was happy and grateful to Xiang Wen for worrying about him. He nodded and said, "I will."
In this battle of Suyue, the Mo army was indeed defeated. The sudden appearance of the Sanshui Army and the Sky Eagle Army caught the Mo army by surprise. Both the cavalry and infantry suffered considerable losses. The most important thing is, The Mo Army camp was destroyed, and all the military supplies, food and grass fell into the hands of Feng Jun. This was undoubtedly a fatal blow to Mo Jun. Even if Qingyu returned to Mo Jun, he could not think of a good response for a while. The only strategy was to give up the attack and retreat first.
Qingyu's retreat was very decisive. He not only withdrew from Dongjiang County, but also did not stop in Anqiu County. He retreated directly to Surabaya where there was a large amount of baggage and grain.
Anqiu is a flat loess plain with few resources and no danger to defend. Qingyu's troops are mainly cavalry and are good at attacking but not good at defending. Instead of staying in Anqiu and being beaten passively, it would be safer to withdraw to Surabaya, that is, It can solve logistical supply problems on the spot, quickly replenish troops, and prepare for future counterattacks.
His choice was not wrong, but when the battle report came out to the Zhenjiang court, it completely changed his mind.
Hearing that Qingyu led his army from Dongjiang County and was beaten back to Sishui, the court and the public of Mo State were in an uproar. At this time, the civil and military ministers were all alert and carefully studied why Qingyu was defeated so badly.
After checking and checking, it was found that the problem was still the battle of Suyue. After the battle of Suyue, the central army of Mo State, which had more than 400,000 soldiers, lost no less than 100,000 infantry and nearly 60,000 to 70,000 cavalry, causing the entire army to be seriously injured. The turning point of this battle was that the three water forces and the Sky Eagle Army of Feng State passed through Mo's Ningdi and directly attacked Mo State.
Of course, Ji Wei, who was in charge of the eight counties of Ningnan, had an unshirkable responsibility for the fact that the Feng Army could pass through Ningdi unimpeded. However, even so, Qingyu could not be unprepared and put all his energy into attacking Suyue City, allowing the infiltrated three water forces and Sky Eagle Army to take advantage of the loophole.
Regarding this matter, Shao Fangyou personally sent a letter to Qingyu to ask what happened. Qingyu told the truth. It was not that he was arrogant and had no precautions against the Feng Army's strong attack, but because he had no idea about the Feng Army's movements. Ningdi did not make any warnings or reports about the Feng Army's advance, so he was attacked by the Feng Army without knowing it.
Seeing Qingyu's reply, Shao Fang's nose was almost crooked with anger. How brave was Ji Wei to not report such urgent military information to the country. It was simply lawless.
Shao Fang immediately sent another letter to Ji Wei in Ningdi, but the latter wrote clearly in the reply that he had sent someone to inform Qingyu about the Feng Army's movements. As for why Qingyu had no precautions, it had nothing to do with him.
Now it's good. Qingyu said that he did not receive Ji Wei's alarm, and Ji Wei said that he sent someone to inform Qingyu. The two insisted on their own words, and Shao Fang couldn't tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.
In the end, it was Taifu Zhang Rong who gave him an idea. He asked Shao Fang to transfer Qingyu and Ji Wei back to Zhenjiang, and to ask them face to face in the court. After the confrontation, the truth of the matter was revealed.
Shao Fang thought Zhang Rong's idea was feasible, so he immediately agreed to it. He ordered Shi Hanyu, the commander of the Tianwei Army, to replace Qingyu and temporarily serve as the commander of the entire army. He also ordered Minister Yan Ning to replace Ji Wei and temporarily manage the eight counties of Ningnan, and recalled Qingyu and Ji Wei.
Changing commanders on the battlefield is a big taboo for soldiers. Shao Fang himself understood this, but he was more afraid of the disloyalty of his subordinates. Qingyu and Ji Wei each insisted on their own words, but one of them must be lying, and the two of them happened to be in high positions and had great power. Shao Fang did not dare to let the matter drag on and was eager to find out the truth.
Ji Wei's replacement completely deprived the eight counties of Ningnan of their chance to counterattack northwards, and Qingyu's replacement completely disrupted the steps of the Mo State Central Army, which was stockpiled in Sishui, to prepare for the attack. It can be said that the ideas that Taifu Zhang Rong gave to Shao Fang were basically all bad ideas, and none of them was the best strategy, but he just catered to Shao Fang's preferences and knew very well what Shao Fang was thinking, so his ideas were always accepted and adopted by Shao Fang.
When a country is about to perish, there is always a lack of flatterers, and the biggest flatterer in Mo State at present is none other than Zhang Rong.
On the other side, Feng State occupied Suyue.
After the battle of Suyue, the Mo army retreated and returned to Sishui, and the pressure on Tang Yin was immediately relieved. Now Feng Army only needs to go south to take back Anqiu County in one fell swoop.
The morale of Feng Army was naturally boosted and full of hope, but what surprised Qiu Zhen was that Tang Yin was as happy as the generals on the surface, but when there was no one around, he was always depressed and frowning.
There was civil unrest in Mo, and the generals and officials of Ningdi were changed. The king had the initiative now. What else should he worry about? Qiu Zhen was puzzled.
On this day, the Sanshui Army and the Tianying Army both sent back battle reports. The two armies had successfully advanced into Anqiu County. There was no large-scale hoarding of Mo troops in its territory. It was estimated that it would take less than half a month to fully occupy the county.
Qiu Zhen came to Tang Yin with a smile and took the battle report, but he saw the latter sitting in a daze in the garden, with only Ah San and Ah Si who had recovered from his injury.
He did not go over immediately. He first asked Ah San and Ah Si with his eyes. Both of them shrugged and showed helpless expressions.
Qiu Zhen paused, took a deep breath, and quickly approached Tang Yin, saying with a smile: "My king, there is good news!"
Tang Yin suddenly came back to his senses, stared at Qiu Zhen blankly for two seconds before reacting, and asked with a smile: "What good news?"
"General Liang Qi and General Ziying have led their troops to fight back to Anqiu. The Mo army retreating to Sishui is afraid to fight. I believe that it won't be long before Anqiu will be back in our hands." Qiu Zhen said with a smile.
