Chapter 522 The war is coming
"This is?" Tang Feiyang asked the question everyone wanted to ask first.
Qin Yu said with a smile: "I won this back in the competition at the Thorns Expo on the Thorns Islands."
Ye Ming reached out and took the token into his hand, looked at it carefully, put it back on the table and said in surprise: "It is indeed the token of Prince Jing's Palace, and it can only be worn by senior generals."
Tang Feiyang hurriedly asked curiously: "Tell me how it came about?"
So Qin Yu talked about the bet he made with Yuchi Chuanyi, and then everyone figured out what happened to the token.
"So what is the general's plan?" Although they saw the token, everyone still didn't understand what Qin Xuan wanted to do.
Qin Xuan smiled slyly and said, "I'm going to give the Zuo Route Army some tricks and try another empty city strategy."
Everyone frowned slightly. Although they had guesses in their minds, they were not sure because the idea was too bold.
Qin Xuan continued: "Yu'er and Di are both outsiders, and almost no one knows them in the empire. Let them pretend to be people from Prince Jing's palace with tokens and sneak into Prince Jing's army!"
"Then they will find ways to delay the actions of the Left Army and delay the siege. As long as the Center Army is wiped out, the Left Army will have to retreat."
Everyone was surprised for a moment when they heard this almost fantastic idea.
"But no one knows them, so how can anyone listen to them?"
"Yes, and if Yuchi Kawaichi is also involved in this operation, wouldn't it be exposed!"
"Even if the identity is revealed, how can two people directly command an army of 150,000 people, bypassing other generals?"
One question after another came one after another. Faced with many doubts, Qin Yu took the initiative to stand up and said: "I understand everyone's concerns. I or Di will definitely not be able to directly command this 150,000 army."
When everyone heard this, they thought, what is the meaning of this? Then Qin Yu paused for a moment, and then he glanced at the whole audience and said, "What if Yuchi Chuanyi comes in person?"
The generals immediately let out a sound of surprise, Yuchichuan Yi came in person? Before they could ask, Qin Yu put his hands on his face in front of everyone.
In everyone's shocked eyes, Qin Yu's figure began to change, along with his aura
After the change was over, Qin Yu put down his hands, and his face had completely turned into an unfamiliar face.
"Yuchi Kawaichi!!!" Someone in the room had seen Yuchi Kawaichi before, and finally couldn't help but exclaimed loudly.
Yuchi Chuanyi's originally smiling expression suddenly froze, and he loudly said with a serious face: "According to the order of His Highness Prince Jing, the entire army is resting on the spot to wait for the opportunity!"
Everyone present was stunned by this voice. After a while, everyone came back to their senses and nodded. This plan can work!
So Qin Xuan's bold and radical plan was finally adopted!
The 100,000-strong King Qing's 26th Corps immediately went to Yuedong Prefecture and relied on fortifications such as fortifications, bunkers, and tunnels for defense. They did not seek to defeat the enemy, but only sought safety.
A total of 320,000 troops from the Prince's Army, the Liaoji Army, and the Yuling Army were deployed dispersedly in Liaoji Prefecture to lure the enemy deep into the territory. After all the enemy's 200,000 troops in the center entered the Liaoji Prefecture plain, they would then encircle the enemy in order to completely annihilate the enemy. military!
Northern Meng Prefecture will no longer send additional defenders. The two thousand defenders of Chihe City plus Qin Yu and Di will deal with the enemy's 150,000 left army. As long as it is delayed for fifteen days, after the encirclement is completed in the middle, Northern Meng Prefecture will The siege can be solved!
After the final plan was finalized, the generals began to go back to formulate detailed combat plans for their own troops.
At the same time, various arsenals are also rushing to produce weapons and ammunition. Especially for Bai Ziqing's 26th Corps, the core idea this time is "rely on the strong city and use cannons."
In addition to their sudden arrival, the original armament ration did not include these 100,000 people, so now the entire arsenal in Liaoji Prefecture is working day and night to manufacture at full capacity.
In the next few days, soldiers from all walks of life left the camp and headed to their predetermined locations.
……
Fast forward to half a month later. At this time, all the Eight Kings' 500,000 troops have arrived at the designated combat position.
The eyes of the entire empire are fixed on the three northeastern states. This battle will determine the future destiny of the empire.
If the Prince's Mansion fails, then Princess Tian's twenty-year plan will be completely declared a failure, the Prince's line will also completely withdraw from the stage of history, and the empire will return to its previous state of relative stability but collapse at any time.
If the Eight Kings are defeated, it means that the legitimacy of the current royal family will change. The Prince's Palace will raise the banner of orthodoxy and officially enter a situation of competing with the central branch, and the empire will also enter a period of turmoil and chaos.
……
Huaying led 5,000 men from the Second Corps of the Yuling Army to garrison in Chagu County, Liaoji Prefecture. The order she received was to stand still and wait for the enemy to completely enter the Liaoji Plain before encircling the enemy from the right.
On this day, Huaying was having a meeting with the battalion commanders of the Second Army Corps. Her tactics were very different from those of the Second Army Corps Commander Bu Feng, so many details had to be re-finalized.
The war is about to break out, why is Bu Feng not in his own army?
This is about a letter Qin Yu received from Gulanzhou half a month ago.
The letter was sent from the branch of the Crown Prince's Mansion in Gulan Prefecture, and the recipient was Bu Feng. The letter mentioned that the strongest army in Gulan Prefecture is led by Bu Ying.
People from the Prince's Mansion thought that Bu Ying and Bufeng might know each other, so they wrote to ask Bufeng.
If Bu Feng knows Bu Ying, I hope Bu Feng can write a letter to Bu Ying. I don't expect to persuade her to switch to the Prince's Palace. I just hope that she will not kill everyone in suppressing the peasant uprising.
Bu Ying told Qin Yu about this matter. Qin Yu felt that the letter was not weighty enough. Bu Ying did not know that Bu Feng was still alive, so even if he wrote the letter, he would think it was a forgery.
The best way is for Bu Feng to meet Bu Ying in person. It would be best if he could persuade her to surrender.
Before Bu Feng left, Qin Yu even rushed to give Bu Feng ideological and political education and asked him to use this theory to persuade Bu Ying.
Therefore, when the battle was about to begin, Bu Feng left his second legion and was temporarily commanded by Hua Ying.
The core of this battle was the Liaojizhou battlefield in the middle. The overall plan made before the battle was for Li Rubai's troops to contact the enemy first, and then pretend to be defeated and retreat, so as to lure the enemy deeper.
After all the enemy's middle route troops entered the Liaoji Plain, the Prince's Army and Yu Ling's Army deployed around them quickly surrounded them from three sides to achieve the effect of catching turtles in a urn.
This plan seems to be full of loopholes, and the other party must have figured it out, but the other party is sure that the Prince's Army does not dare to do this.
There are three reasons:
First, the number of the Prince's Army responsible for encircling the flanks and rear is far less than that of the enemy's center route army. As long as the enemy concentrates on breaking through, it will be difficult to stop them.
Second, if the enemy does not pursue Li Rubai's tribe who deceived the enemy, then this strategy will not be implemented.
Third, even if all the previous steps are successfully implemented, it is not so easy to kill an army of 200,000 people. The enemy only needs to hold on for a few days and wait for the other two groups of troops to rush to help and complete the counter-siege.
Therefore, whether the plan can be implemented and the final effect all depends on one thing, and that is the combat effectiveness of the Prince's Army!
If the Prince's Army can withstand the breakthrough from the opposite side, stop them from running away, and has the ability to eat up these 200,000 troops in a short period of time, then regardless of the situation on the other two battlefields, this war is basically a sure thing!
