Chapter 393
The battle situation in the south-central part of Leizhou gave the northern part of Leizhou, which was once in trouble, a glimmer of hope.
The seven territories in the north quickly formed an alliance under the organization of Qiantang County, the last third-level county seat, and formed an allied army of nearly 50,000 people to jointly fight against the North Route Army led by Mu Guiying.
The commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces was none other than Wei Zhang, the head of the Qiantang County City Guards Regiment.
When it comes to Wei Zhang, one person has to be mentioned, and he is the representative of the Strategists——Zhang Yi.
The relationship between Wei Zhang and Zhang Yi is similar to the relationship between Bai Qi and Wei Ran. They are all recommended by the ruling ministers in the court to lead the army outside.
After the death of King Huiwen of Qin, his son King Wu of Qin succeeded to the throne, and Zhang Yi fell out of favor and was expelled from the country. Correspondingly, Wei Zhang was also expelled to Wei State, and there is no record of Wei Zhang's deeds since then.
It is undeniable that Wei Zhang is also a general.
[Name]: Wei Zhang (King Class)
【Dynasty】: Warring States (Qin)
[Identity]: Head of Qiantang County City Guards Regiment
[Occupation]: Senior General
[Loyalty]: 80 points
[Commander]: 75 [Force]: 85 [Intelligence]: 55 [Politics]: 45
[Speciality]: Forge ahead (increase the movement speed of the army by 15%)
[Comment]: Wei Zhang, a fierce general, the year of birth and death is unknown. In 312 BC, with the help of Chiliji, he defeated the Chu army in Danyang, captured its general Qu Gai, beheaded 80,000 people, and seized the land of Hanzhong.
Under the leadership of Wei Zhang, the allied forces severely curbed the offensive momentum of the North Route Army.
The battle situation in Leizhou fell into a stalemate, the momentum of the Shanhai City army's triumphant advance was contained, and the whole battle situation entered the second stage - the stalemate period.
***********
Leishan County Government, the base camp of the Expeditionary Army.
Bai Qi sat in front of the case, behind him was a map of Leizhou drawn by the Military Intelligence Department.
Although the battle situation in Leizhou had changed, Ouyang Shuo did not give any order to Bai Qi, and still entrusted Bai Qi with full authority over the battle in Leizhou without any interference.
Bai Qi is grateful for Junhou's trust, and he must use actions to repay this trust.
The Second Division led by Luo Shixin has already set off for Tamu County to rescue the South Route Army. Now the only troops that Bai Qi can use are the Imperial Guards.
The south-central and northern regions have successively formed alliances, and the central part of Leizhou has a rare defensive gap. The Imperial Guard Division is still advancing triumphantly, besieging the city and occupying territory all the way.
"Come on!"
"exist!"
"Decree: The first brigade of the Imperial Guard Division will divert to attack Yanluo County. The first formation of the Beihai Gulf Fleet will detour to Leizhou Bay and cooperate with the first brigade to attack Yanluo County."
"promise!"
Bai Qi is about to launch a beheading operation. Once Yanluo County is besieged, the Central South Allied Forces will be frustrated. Bai Qi wanted to know whether the lord of Yanluo County wanted to protect the allied forces or the territory.
As for the war in the north, Bai Qi was not worried. The two sides are just confronting each other. With Mu Guiying's talent, he will never repeat the mistakes of the South Route Army.
On the surface, the situation in Leizhou is not good for the army of Shanhai City, but in fact it has reached the final stage. As long as the two allied forces are captured, the entire territory of Leizhou will fall, and it will be within ten days.
Now, it depends on who's method is better.
***********
At the same time that Leizhou was undergoing changes, Yazhou, thousands of miles away, also caused waves.
June 3, early morning.
The salty sea monsoon brought up bursts of thick fog.
On the edge of Wuzhi Mountain, the early birds chirp in the trees with a melodious sound.
Suddenly, the tranquility of the forest was broken.
A rumbling sound came from deep in the mountains.
After a while, I saw a red wave breaking through the shackles of the mountains and rushing out.
If you look carefully, you can see that they are all Li nationality soldiers.
Every warrior is wearing red leather armor, holding a spear or hunting knife, and carrying a bow and arrow for hunting. Various mysterious patterns were painted on the faces of the soldiers with unknown dyes.
This is a battle of revenge.
In the words of the tribal leader, it was a hateful intruder who occupied the hunting grounds that belonged to them, making them unable to hunt wild boars, tigers and leopards.
Their glory must be defended with the blood of the enemy.
This time, the Li tribe raised an army of 60,000 and suddenly came out of the mountains, preparing to besiege the Huben army.
The mighty army swept past all the way.
From time to time, the soldiers let out strange roars, as if they were going to hunt.
Just as the army of the Li nationality walked out of the forest, a signal bomb was launched into the air immediately and exploded at high altitude. As if ordered, a signal bomb was launched every two or three kilometers.
Seen from a high altitude, the signal bombs continuously rising into the sky formed a long dragon, extending from the edge of Wuzhi Mountain to the Huben Legion's garrison, and it took less than fifteen minutes to go back and forth.
At this time, the Li army was still hundreds of kilometers away from their destination.
Huben Legion, handsome tent.
"Master, the fish is hooked!"
It was Dai Qin, the head of the second division of the Huben Army, who walked into the tent.
Sun Bin's face was calm, without taking his eyes off the pages of the book, he said flatly, "According to the plan!"
"No!" Dai Qin turned and left.
Routine drills are going on at the mountain travel camp.
In the team, there were several sergeants who were obviously absent-minded, including Shanzhu, the young patriarch of the Li nationality. Shanzhu has already contacted the tribe through a secret channel.
Today is the date they agreed to attack.
The mountain brigade camp was opened up by the legion alone, with wooden walls built around it for easy inspection.
A sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded outside the camp.
Dai Qin rode a war horse and walked at the front of the team, followed by the guards.
"General!"
The two brigade commanders of the mountain brigade hurried over to salute, with puzzled faces, not knowing what happened. Because of the high degree of secrecy, the two brigade commanders did not know about Sun Bin's arrangement.
"Assemble the team!"
Dai Qin didn't explain anything, and directly issued a military order.
"promise!"
The two brigade commanders turned and left.
"gather!"
"gather!"
There was a commotion in the mountain brigade, and many of the soldiers were connected with Shan Zhu, knowing that today was the day of the riot. At this time, any abnormality will touch the sensitive nerves of the soldiers.
The soldiers turned their heads and looked at the mountain pillar intentionally or unintentionally.
Shanzhu's heart trembled, a bad premonition hit his heart. He was still calm and took the lead in gathering. Seeing this, the other fighters also gathered together.
No matter how dull the two brigade commanders were, they could smell a trace of uneasiness in the air, and their expressions became serious.
"General, the mountain brigade is assembled!"
Dai Qin rode on the horse, nodded, and said: "Order the soldiers to put down the weapons in their hands."
The standard weapons equipped by the mountain brigade are all unified Tang swords. Since it is a drill, it is natural to carry the Tang knife with you to practice the knife technique.
The Lushuai's heart trembled, he didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, he turned his head and gave the order.
"There are all of them. Put down your weapons and store them together."
"Wow!"
The team became noisy again, and the uneasy atmosphere began to spread rapidly.
"Why did you put down your weapon?"
"That's right, why!"
Some soldiers were unconvinced and retorted.
"Presumptuous!" The brigade commander was furious, and said sharply: "This is an order! After training for so long, have you even forgotten the most basic discipline in the army?"
"We are not convinced!"
The soldiers ignored the brigade commander's lecture and continued to clamor.
The faces of the two brigade commanders instantly turned black. In front of the head of the division, the team they brought out showed such disregard for discipline, it really made them feel ashamed.
Shan Zhu in the crowd also had an ugly expression. With his super intuition, Shan Zhu faintly realized that their actions might have been exposed.
At this time, if you lay down your weapons, it would be tantamount to seeking your own death.
Thinking of this, Shan Zhu tightened the Tang Dao in his hand, his eyes gradually turned cold.
Seeing the mountain pillar like this, more fighters left the team and gathered around the mountain pillar. Some of the soldiers who were not attracted by the mountain pillar couldn't help turning pale when they saw this scene.
Everyone knows that something big is going to happen!
"What, want to rebel?"
At this moment, Dai Qin came over on a horse, surrounded by the guard camp.
Shan Zhu stared at Dai Qin steadfastly, without saying a word.
The air froze at this moment, suffocating.
Mutiny is imminent.
Dai Qin's face turned cold instantly, and he waved his hand.
Following his movements, dense crowds of archers suddenly appeared on the wooden walls around the camp. These archers are naturally cavalry from the Second Division.
Tens of thousands of bows and arrows were aimed at the mountain brigade below the camp.
"Wow!"
There was another commotion in the crowd, and some soldiers who approached the mountain pillar couldn't help but turn pale. The scene was already clear, if the mountain traveler dared to resist, it would be the end of a thousand arrows piercing the heart immediately.
Shan Zhu's face was also pale.
He knew that he had failed!
Not only him, but the entire tribe could not escape the fate of failure.
Ridiculous, ridiculous.
It's ridiculous that he still thinks he's smart, but he doesn't think that his every move is under the surveillance of the enemy. In the current situation, the only option is to fight to the death to defend the last dignity of the Li warriors.
Thinking of this, Shanzhu raised the Tang knife in his hand and said loudly: "Soldiers, use the blood of the enemy to defend the dignity of the tribe. Are you willing to die with me?"
"With the total death!"
"With the total death!"
As expected of a group of passionate men, they died generously.
Dai Qin was unmoved, with luck, his voice reached the ears of every soldier: "Isn't it the mountain pillar?"
"Exactly!"
Shan Zhu had already given up all his strength.
Dai Qin shook his head, and said: "It's a pity that the commander-in-chief admires you a lot, but I don't want to be a reckless man!"
"You!" Shan Zhu was furious, "The glory of a warrior must not be desecrated!"
"madness!"
Dai Qin yelled loudly, and the soldiers' ears were buzzing, not feeling shocked.
"Your death is a joy. But have you ever thought about what kind of fate your clansmen will face? What kind of heroes are you who only act as personal heroes and don't care about the lives of your clansmen?"
Shan Zhu's face paled upon hearing this.
"Surrender, give your people a chance to be reborn!"
"Boom!"
Tang Dao fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
