Become a feudal king from today

"Go to Anqing City!"

Taihe twenty-sixth year, July 6th. ReadМ

After three days of preparations, the royal army was ready to start the Battle of Jiangzhou.

In addition to the 10,000 soldiers marching towards Yuezhou and Guizhou, there are also 10,000 soldiers stationed at various passages from the three southeastern states to Jiangzhou.

To prevent the powerful clans in Jiangzhou from sending a small army to attack the three southeastern states.

In addition, Zhongli will stay in the three southeastern states, responsible for commanding the rural soldiers of the three states, and maintaining the security of the three states together with the remaining royal troops.

In this way, we also exclude the Lu Chang tribe who fought with Qin Shi.

This time, the royal family's 100,000-strong army was dispatched in unison, aiming directly at Jiangzhou.

However, although the royal army is not yet full, Zhao Xu and Chang Wei are more confident than before in winning the war.

Because during this period of time, the army in Jiangbei has not stopped replacing Qin-style rifles.

Now, the soldiers of the royal family have completed the replacement of Qin-style rifles.

One hundred thousand soldiers of the royal family armed with Qin-style rifles were enough to destroy the remaining defeated generals of the powerful clans in the south of the Yangtze River.

With an order.

The royal army marched towards Anqing City in a mighty manner.

Zhao Xu and Chang Wei immediately followed.

This time, he wanted to personally end the civil strife in Dasong and never give the Westerners the opportunity to deeply intervene in the civil strife in Dasong.

Anqing City is just upstream of Jinling City, with Jiujiang to the north and contemporary Poyang Lake to the south.

Changcheng is located at the southern end of Poyang Lake.

Once, Wang Xie wanted to station troops in Anqing and attack Jinling.

Now, he wants to station troops in Anqing and attack Changcheng.

Because his fleet can directly merge into the Gan River from Anqing to Jiujiang and enter the vast Poyang Lake.

Because Poyang Lake divides Jiangzhou into two parts from the middle.

The royal army and the navy could cooperate with each other, use Poyang Lake as the center line, attack both sides of the strait, and quickly control the cities on both sides of the strait.

Most importantly, they will gain extreme mobility in Poyang Lake.

Especially steam boats can reach Changcheng from Anqing in half a day.

Three days later.

One hundred thousand royal troops arrived in Anqing City.

At this time, eight steamships and eight sailing warships of the Navy arrived one after another.

Also arriving at the same time were sixty troop transport ships, capable of carrying thirty thousand troops.

at the same time.

Changcheng.

Xie An got the news that the royal army was marching towards Anqing.

Suddenly, a layer of cold sweat broke out all over his body.

Although he knew that King Yan would launch an attack on Jiangzhou sooner or later.

But when it finally came, there was only a sense of hopeless powerlessness in his heart.

However, he currently has an army of 600,000 men and has to deal with this matter.

"Send the movements of King Yan's army to Bacheng immediately." Xie An said solemnly.

Then, he originally wanted to ask Wang Xie for his opinion, but suddenly realized that Wang Xie had been demoted from his official position and had gone to Bacheng.

"Hey..." Xie An sighed.

If it had been before, Wang Xie would have been able to come up with some ideas at this time.

But now he can only rely on himself.

At that time, he also pleaded for Wang Xie. After all, it was not that Wang Xie was not smart enough, but that King Yan was too cunning.

But this matter obviously required someone to take the blame, and no one in Bacheng paid heed to his suggestion.

Thinking of this, he sighed again, looked at his generals, and said, "This time King Yan's army is marching towards Anqing. Do you have any clever plans to stop King Yan's army?"

The generals looked at me and I looked at you, all with sad faces.

Obviously, this news also worries them.

There is not much room for them to retreat.

Seeing this, Xie An shook his head and waved the general to disperse.

In fact, he also knew that facing King Yan's troops, the strategies they could adopt were extremely limited.

At present, it is impossible to divide the troops, and the king of Yan can only defeat them one by one.

He could only fight to the death with an army of 600,000 in Changcheng, wait for the reinforcements of the Wu army in Xiangzhou, and attack the King of Yan's army from both sides.

"Why don't you leave?" Everyone dispersed. At this time, only one general remained in the hall, and it was his eldest son Xie Bi.

"Father, I have something to say, should I say it or not?" Xie Bi's eyes were a little flustered, but also a little determined.

"Say." Xie An looked at his eldest son strangely.

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Bi said: "Father, the general trend of the world is already clear. If you continue to resist, it is just an egg hitting a stone. Furthermore, even if you win King Yan, will the Liang family tolerate our Xie family in the future? In the end, we will fall. The head just fell to the ground.”

Xie An's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He grabbed Xie Bi's collar and said, "Damn it, who asked you to say such things?"

"It was the boy who asked me to say this. The civil strife in Dasong is just Dasong's family matter. What does it have to do with the Western natives? What does it have to do with the Beidi people? In this way, if the wolf is introduced into the house, even if King Yan is destroyed, Dasong will still be Great praise?" Xie Bi continued, "In such a comparison, only King Yan is for great praise."

Clearing his throat, he continued, "Father, the people of King Yan have said that as long as my father is willing to surrender, he will intercede with King Yan to protect the wealth of our Xie family for the rest of his life."

Xie An was stunned, and then he suddenly raised his hand and slapped Xie Bi, "You bastard who has forgotten his ancestors, you actually have private dealings with King Yan's people."

Looking out the door, he shouted: "Come here, put Xie Bi in prison. Don't let him out without my order."

Two soldiers walked in immediately, grabbed Xie Bi and walked out.

Covering his face, Xie Bi had complicated eyes.

He shouted: "Father, after the three southeastern states fall under the command of King Yan, we will not be able to win."

Xie An just waved his hand impatiently and asked the soldiers to take Xie Bi away quickly.

When Xie Bi's voice could no longer be heard, Xie An sat down slumped.

He had a very bad feeling.

His eldest son is like this, and how many powerful generals in the army have lost confidence.

The most important thing is that during this short period of time, King Yan's people were obviously active in Changcheng and bewitched the generals.

I don’t know how many people in the army have been bribed and have different aspirations.
