The daily life of Dali Siqing

Chapter 532 The battle situation has been decided
The members of the Azure Dragon Society, from grain to treasury silver, to weapons, were obviously preparing for the rebellion.

And according to the recent actions of the Azure Dragon Society, the place where the troops were raised must be in the four southeastern states, and the people who raised the troops were the survivors of Baiyue.

In Yangzhou, Yuezhou, Minzhou, and Lingnan, there are Baiyue survivors in these four states.

Yang Qingyuan first ruled out the possibility of Yangzhou.

Although Yangzhou's defense force is not as good as the current Yuezhou, the Baiyue clan in Yangzhou is also the least among the four states. Only in the south of Yangzhou are there a small number of Baiyue people. Different from the Baiyue people in Yangzhou, the Baiyue people in Yangzhou have gradually integrated into the Great Zhou Dynasty.

They communicated with the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, traded, and edited the roster, which was stored in the local government. Although they were not the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty in name, they were no different from ordinary people in essence.

It is definitely unrealistic for Qinglong to expect this group of people to rebel.

Then there is Yuezhou, which is the main location of the Qinglong Society's operations and the most powerful state. Because of this, their actions attracted the imperial court headed by Yang Qingyuan, the army originally stationed in the bank, the imperial guards, Qiantangshui division.

The military strength of Yuezhou should be the richest among the remaining three states.

Moreover, Yang Qingyuan is the envoy of Yuezhou, who has the right to make arbitrary decisions in Yuezhou. If Yang Qingyuan was a member of the Qinglong Society, he would not choose to make trouble in Yuezhou.

Moreover, after Yang Qingyuan got the news that the Azure Dragon Society failed to deal with the ancient Yue tribe, he asked the ancient Yue tribe to warn other Yue tribes.

Although Tianze is the prince of the late Baiyue King, the Guyue people are the real ancestors of Baiyue, with high morals and high prestige.

If they raise troops in Yuezhou, Tianze and others still need to face a problem, how to avoid the influence of the ancient Yue tribe?

Judging from the feedback from the ancient Yue people, there were no Baiyue people in Yuezhou who joined forces to cause chaos.

Therefore, the goal of the Azure Dragon Club will not be Yuezhou.

The rest is Lingnan and Minzhou.

Lingnanli is the farthest center of the imperial court, with weak defenses and a lot of miasma. If you just think of soldiers and separate one side, then this is undoubtedly the best place.

But even if Qinglong will occupy Lingnan, so what? !
With the physical strength of the people in Lingnan, it is impossible to support an army strong enough to conquer the world.

Moreover, Lingnan is adjacent to Jiaozhou, where the main force of the Shenwu Army is stationed. This army defends against the barbarians of Tianzhu Kingdom and Shiwanda Mountain in the southwest border.

The eating knife does not return to its sheath, and the sleeping armor does not take off the body.

The strength of the battle is known to the world.

If Qinglong would cause trouble in Lingnan, the Shenwu army would not have to travel long distances, and would be able to take Lingnan directly from Jiaozhou directly through the imperial court.

Moreover, Qinglong will make trouble in Yuezhou, just to use the 800 million taels of silver as military pay.

If troops are raised in Lingnan, the silver will have to pass through Yuezhou, Minzhou and then transported to Lingnan. Doesn’t this make it more difficult for the rebellion? !

It was originally a dungeon with hell-level difficulty, and you can increase the difficulty further.

Gong Ziyu just wants to restore the country, not to challenge the limit.

Then the remaining choice is Minzhou.

Although the population of Minzhou is not as good as that of Yuezhou and Yangzhou, nor is it as rich as the two prefectures, but Minzhou is a large state of maritime trade, and Licheng Port is the largest port in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The material resources of Minzhou are enough to support an elite army.

Second, Minzhou is mountainous and there are many Baiyue tribes. These people will be an important source of soldiers for the bandits of the Qinglong Society in the future.At the same time, the mountainous terrain also provided favorable defensive conditions for the rebels of the Qinglong Society to resist the encirclement and suppression of the imperial army.

Moreover, there is a river connecting Minzhou and Yuezhou, and 800 million taels of silver can be sent to Minzhou along the river.

Combining a series of factors, Yang Qingyuan believes that Minzhou is the real birthplace of the Qinglong Club.

After reaching this conclusion, Yang Qingyuan immediately began to think about the layout, and at the same time counted the available troops.

Because of the tense battle in Youzhou, the Shenwu Army in Yuezhou and Yangzhou went northward. At this moment, the defensive forces in Yuezhou were already stretched.

Yang Qingyuan immediately thought of an army of the Liberation Movement that had been idled for investigation.

These 3000 troops are the elite of the Shenwu Army, and their combat power is tyrannical. The leader of the Shenwu Army, Cheng Lixue, is even a mighty fighter in the south.

It's just that because of the theft of salary, Cheng Lixue and others are all guilty. Although the matter has been clarified now, several people still bear the crime of dereliction of duty.

So Yang Qingyuan acted arbitrarily right to exonerate them from the crime of dereliction of duty, and ordered Cheng Lixue's 3000 troops and 2000 troops drawn from the Shenwu Army guarding the coast, a total of 5000 people, to detour along the western border of Yuezhou. Within the territory of Fujian Province.

Jianyang County was captured last night, and Yang Qingyuan also received information that Baiyue went down the waterway to raid Jianjin.

Yang Qingyuan immediately prepared a large amount of tung oil, and then led Cheng Lixue to rush towards Jianjin County with all his strength.

But Yang Qingyuan still miscalculated the speed of the bamboo raft march. The Baiyue coalition army has rich experience in bamboo stream rafting all the year round, and they arrived in Jianjin half an hour earlier than Yang Qingyuan.

When Yang Qingyuan led his army to Jianjin, the raid by Guihou's troops had already begun.

However, Yang Qingyuan's troops did not join the battlefield as soon as they arrived. Instead, they asked people to pour the tung oil they had prepared into the water, spread the tung oil on the surface of the water, and then lead the army out.

On the east and north sides of the Jianjin Camp there are soldiers and horses of the Zhou army, while on the west and south sides are rivers. Originally, Gui Hou left a way for himself. Retreat calmly.

But Yang Qingyuan's strange move completely cut off the Baiyue coalition army's retreat.

When the Baiyue coalition forces were superior in numbers, they fell into the siege of the Zhou army.

In the battle just now, the Baiyue clan lost more than [-] people, and the Jianjin City Defense Army lost more than [-] people.

The ratio of forces between the two sides is now about two to one.

But the war has never been more than anyone else, otherwise counting the heads before the war will not be over? !What else?
Cheng Lixue's unit, who just arrived, is well-equipped and powerful. Even these 5000 men are enough to defeat the [-]-[-] Allied Forces head-on, let alone a part of the city defense army and the reserve army.

Looking at the current situation, Gui Hou did not intend to give up.

When the Baiyue tribe slaughtered wild boars in the mountains, they never cut off all the wild boars' way of life. It would only make the wild boar's resistance extremely fierce. We must leave a way for him to live, and then capture the slower-running wild boars. The physical strength of the wild boar is constantly consumed during the exercise, and then all the prey are captured in one fell swoop.

Guihou also has considerable military talent, and from hunting, he realized the principle of encirclement and lack of one in the art of war.

"Boys, these Zhou people are here again. Ten years ago, it was the Zhou people who destroyed our country and killed the king. Now they are going to set fire to us! Even if we die today, we will tear them off. I, Guihou, am here to live and die with you, and I will die before you!..."

With Gui Hou's morale boost, the Baiyue coalition forces, which were a little confused due to the change in the battle situation, once again boosted their morale.

There is a saying in the art of war: "Don't stop the army when you return, don't block the army when you surround it, and don't force the poor."

Once the enemy is in a desperate situation, amazing combat power will erupt in a deadly battle. Even if the enemy is completely wiped out, it will cause huge losses to oneself.

With the "assistance" of Yang Qingyuan, Gui Hou felt that he might be able to fight with his back, break the boat and fight against the wind!

But although Yang Qingyuan is not a veteran on the battlefield, he has read through the art of war and commanded two beautiful battles in the northern border.

Yang Qingyuan should belong to the standard war planner without using Daotong to observe the battlefield situation, so how could he make such a low-level mistake?

A strategist defends the country with righteousness, employs troops with oddities, plans first and then fights, takes into account the situation, covers yin and yang, and uses skill.

Strategists are most particular about pre-war planning and deduction of the battle situation. In a perfect battle plan, they will prepare for various emergencies.

The situation between the enemy and the enemy, the geographical environment of mountains and rivers, and the psychology of the opponent's generals are all things that military strategists will consider before the battle.

Using Jinshui and the location of the camp to drive the Baiyue coalition army to death, how could they not be prepared for the Baiyue coalition army's dying counterattack? !

"Brothers of the Baiyue tribe! The imperial court has never shown any malice towards you. You have been in the mountains and forests for many years and the imperial court has never encircled and suppressed you. The imperial court has never stopped you from going out to exchange goods and salt. The two sides live in peace."

"But there are always ambitious people who want to sow discord and let you die in vain! Then your lives will be exchanged for their ambitions!"

"..."

There is no doubt about Yang Qingyuan's eloquence, of course the key is that what he said is indeed the truth, under the blessing of his mellow true energy, even on the battlefield, it can be clearly heard by every soldier of the Baiyue coalition army.

The clear and clear voice, combined with the true essence of the Daoist sect, calmed down the soldiers of the Baiyue coalition army from their high morale and blood boiling.

This rebellion, which was destined to be wiped out, meant nothing to ordinary Baiyue people.

Even if they win, the people of Baiyue may not be able to adapt to the life outside the mountains. For thousands of years, they are still used to living in the mountains.

No one has ever thought about what this rebellion brought to the Baiyue people?
At this moment, under Yang Qingyuan's inductive words, the soldiers of the Baiyue coalition army began to think about this issue.

Because of the Azure Dragon Society, after the capture of Jianyang County, the ordinary Baiyue soldiers didn't even have the chance to plunder. They only got part of the silver and salt. Although they made a profit, these things are at the risk of beheading owned.

Whether it is worth it or not depends on the heart of the person.

Yang Qingyuan's clear voice sounded like hell to Gui Hou's ears, bewitching the soldiers under his command.

"Boys, we Yue people are the descendants of the ancient holy emperor, the sons of the mountains and forests, how can we submit to the Zhou people?!"

"shut up!!"

Just as Gui Hou continued to speak to boost morale, an old woman slowly stood in front of the formation and scolded.

Guihou knew this person, but none of the soldiers present knew him, but no one in the Baiyue clan didn't know the ancient weapon in the old woman's hand.

"Is that the celestial phenomena and earth instrument!?"

Seeing what the old woman was holding, all the Baiyue soldiers looked at each other in blank dismay.

It was the ancestor of the ancient Yue clan, the relic left by the ancient emperor.

It is recorded in ancient books: One Yuan began, and the heaven and earth were first established. There was a god named the Emperor of Heaven, and King Mude ruled the world from the Yin year.

The old woman is the high priest of the ancient Yue nationality, and what she holds in her hand is the sacred object made by the ancient emperor's family - the Fatianxiangdiyi.

"Chunqiu Mingli Preface" has a saying: "Heaven and earth are opened, everything is muddy, ignorant and ignorant; relying on yin and yang, the celestial body begins in the field of the North Pole...the sun and the moon rotate in five latitudes; the emperor comes out...the image of the sky, the law of the earth The instrument, used as the stem and branch to determine the sun and the moon."

Seeing the change of seasons, the Emperor Tianhuang created the calendar of heavenly stems and earthly branches by observing the changes of all things.

The emperor began to make the names of the stems and branches to determine the location of the age.

The Ten Heavens Gan said: Yanfeng, Zhanmeng, Rouzhao, Qiangyu, Zhuoyong, Tuwei, Shangzhang, Chongguang, Xuan (Heige), Zhaoyang;
The twelve earthly branches are: Shetige, Shanyan, Zhixu, Dahuangluo, Dunpang, Xieqia, Yitan, Zuog, Xiemao, Dazhouxian, Yudun, Chifenruo.

Also created numbers: zero, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, twenty, thirty, 卌, hundred, thousand, ten thousand.

The Tianhuang family is the supreme god in the hearts of all tribes in Baiyue, just like the status of Yanhuang in the hearts of Da Zhou.

"Old man, the contemporary high priest of the ancient Yue tribe! Shut up, you deceitful rebel!"

More than [-] Baiyue soldiers present did not doubt the identity of the old woman at all.

No one has the ability to imitate the astronomical and earth instrument. It understands the world and records the time. The time, day, month, season and year are all in this astronomical and earth instrument. It goes round and round, 61 cycles, exactly, which is equivalent to the ancient Yue version of the atomic clock.

At that time, the master craftsmen of the Mohist school also wanted to imitate the astronomical and earthly instruments, but they all failed in the end. As a sacred object of the ancient Yue people, this is unique.

"My Baiyue clans have been born in the mountains since ancient times, grew up in the mountains, ended up in the mountains, and were buried in the mountains. You must not be used by ambitious people..."

All the Baiyue soldiers listened quietly to the old woman.

When Gui Hou saw the appearance of the high priest, he knew that it was inevitable to persevere.

The high priest is on the opposite side, just like the pope suddenly appeared in the opponent's camp during the battle of Jerusalem. What is there to fight at this time? !Headshot? !

"I swear in the name of the high priest of the ancient Yue tribe, as long as you put down your weapons, Zhou Ting will not blame the ordinary Baiyue soldiers for their crimes!"

Ordinary Baiyue soldiers looked at each other as they listened to the old woman's words.

"Bah!"

As the first Wu hook was thrown on the ground, more and more Wu hooks were thrown on the ground.

The Baiyue Allied Army is the combined army of the Baiyue tribes, not Gui Hou's clan army, but a large army assembled by Gui Hou with his own reputation for bravery, Tianze's prestige as the prince, and the Qinglong Society's many years of management.

But this army fell apart before the sacred objects of the ancient Yue tribe.

When the high priest stood in front of the Zhou army holding the law, astronomical phenomena and earth instrument, Gui Hou had already lost his righteous reputation.

"Boys..."

Gui Hou was about to speak, but a figure had already come to Gui Hou from the Zhou army's camp, and the distance of fifty feet was almost instantaneous.

Along with the figure came a flash of sword light, and with a flick of the sword, Gui Hou's voice stopped abruptly, and at the same time there was a shrill scream.

"what!"

The meridians on Guihou's legs were broken by Yang Qingyuan's sword energy!
Although the thief's life still needs to be saved, and the punishment is upright, but he cannot be allowed to continue to confuse people at this time.

Then Yang Qingyuan tapped his fingertips, sealing Guihou's acupuncture points.
