Chapter 267 Jin Kingdom Shocked
(Anti-theft and anti-theft, stick to the end. In addition, there is something in the afternoon, and there will be no update at night.)
It was nightfall again. The battle here in Xiandaihe still didn't stop. The shells in Anyang always fell a few from time to time, making the south bank uneasy.
Li Lisong, Marshal of the State of Jin, was furious. Today, he launched a total of three battles to cross the river, but all of them fell by the wayside.
For the first time, the soldiers of Nanyang County and Dongyuan County were very "smart". As soon as the machine guns on the opposite side opened fire, these bastards got into the water. And the inexperienced Jin army was frantically massacred more than 20,000 people, until the Xiandai River was blocked! In order to "take care" of the Jin army, Anyang even brought in "machine guns". The 30mm cannon is a killing machine.
After returning, Li Lisong found Kong Donglai—why didn't you say that Anyang had such a terrifying weapon!
Kong Donglai was very "wronged": Marshal, you came here so swearingly, but you didn't prepare? I thought you had the same preparations as the "Thousand Swords Formation". And it's not like Anyang didn't use machine guns before, why didn't you pay attention?
Hearing this, Li Lisong wished he could tear Kong Donglai apart on the spot!
The second time, Li Lisong used a tactic of combining reality and fiction to confuse the judgment of Yan Zhengqing, the commander of Anyang; then Li Lisong led the army to suddenly attack from a weak point.
But in this attack, Li Lisong put the soldiers of Nanyang County and Dongyuan County at the front. As a result... as a result... as a result, Li Lisong was so angry that he almost vomited blood. These soldiers from Nanyang County and Dongyuan County went to the shore (South Bank) and stopped moving forward. When the two sides were in a stalemate, Anyang dispatched aircraft, artillery, and machine guns to start the siege.
As a result, the advantages and opportunities that Li Lisong had won so hard were wasted.
For the third time, Li Lisong had no choice but to use his trump card to organize another 20,000 elites (only about 8,000 were in the foundation building period) and mobilize the even more powerful Wanjian formation. On the Anyang side, Yan Zhengqing was unable to defend in time, and a two-kilometer-long open space on the north bank was directly cleared. Tens of thousands of Anyang soldiers were killed or injured. The situation was unprecedentedly critical.
Of course, this is an opportunity for the Jin army.
However, Yan Zhengqing was ruthless enough to personally lead 10,000 Foundation Establishment stage masters across the river to fight. The 20,000 weak soldiers of Jin State were massacred by Yan Zhengqing crazily.
The soldiers from Nanyang County and Dongyuan County watched from the sidelines, watching Yan Zhengqing's ruthless killing, but they did not stop them!
It is conceivable what Li Lisong, the commander-in-chief of the state of Jin, looks like!
And Kong Donglai sneered.
It's a pity that Li Lisong is just a commander-in-chief, while Kong Donglai, the governor of Nanyang County, and Yuan Yong, the current head of Dongyuan County, are both old fox-level politicians. These two old foxes have a tacit understanding of playing tricks on Li Lisong! Li Lisong has a whole body of military talent, after all, he can't compare with the scheming of the two old foxes - this is the natural defect of military generals; civil servants and others are born to play tricks.
Looking back, Kong Donglai, the governor of Nanyang County, did not sincerely and "completely" ask for help, but pulled Jin into the battlefield, and everyone was shot together! Let there be a collision between Anyang and Jin, and Nanyang County can pick itself out.
There are several layers to this thing:
The first layer: let Jin and Anyang fight, the two sides will form hatred, and cooperation will be difficult-this is Kong Donglai's response to the previous rumors released by Li Xian.
Didn't Li Xian have such a rumor before: to cooperate with Guangling County, cooperate with Jin State, and eliminate Nanyang County. Now, Kong Donglai has fought a very good turnaround!
I asked you Anyang to cooperate with Jin, now you two have no basis for cooperation!
The second layer: Anyang and Jin are hostile to each other and can no longer cooperate. Then Nanyang County, which is sandwiched between Jin and Anyang, can have both sides. Only when we have both sides can we seek the greatest benefits for Nanyang County.
The third layer: In order to have enough power to control the situation of the battle, it is necessary to form an alliance with Dongyuan County, so that Jin and Anyang County can pay attention.
In addition, there are other considerations; if Anyang's combat power is not enough, Nanyang County doesn't mind swallowing Anyang completely to please Jin. But now that Anyang is showing a strong performance, it is naturally another matter.
Li Lisong was not stupid to become the commander-in-chief of the Jin Kingdom, he just didn't think of it before; looking back now, he finally figured out these things.
"Okay, what a Nanyang County!" After thinking about it, Li Lisong laughed angrily, "I will make you regret it!"
At dinner time, Li Lisong sent his cronies to leave the barracks in the chaos; the cronies walked west first, and after entering the mountains, they crossed the river, met Yan Zhengqing, and handed over Li Lisong's autographed letter.
Yan Zhengqing finished reading, but shook his head: "Go back and tell your commander-in-chief, just say: I, Yan Zhengqing, represent Anyang County, refuse!"
What? ! This confidant couldn't believe his ears. I, the Kingdom of Jin, took the initiative to give in... Ahem, I offered to be friendly, but you still refused!
After the cronies of Li Lisong, Marshal of Jin State, left, Yan Zhengqing sneered.
The meaning of Li Lisong's letter is very simple: we were provoked by Nanyang County, and we did have a little selfishness (actually greedy), so we rashly sent troops. However, our Jin country is a big country (threat) after all, so it is not very good to retreat like this. Do you think you, Anyang, have any compensation?
I am most optimistic about the three technologies: guns and artillery, underground turbid gas extraction, and production machines. If you Anyang can send these three technologies, we will turn around and leave, and we will establish an ally with you Anyang in the future. If you don't give it, we will continue to stay here.
After Yan Zhengqing read the letter, he sneered and handed it to his cronies, "Send it back to Anyang."
After leaving in person, Yan Zhengqing picked up the three letters next to him:
The first letter was sent by a plane sent from the seaside of Jin State earlier, and it was sent by the navy: We have launched a retaliatory bombing of Jin State, and it is estimated that we will never die with Jin State. According to the speed of the ironclad ship, we will be able to return to Anyang tomorrow morning to replenish ammunition; the next morning, about 40 hours later, we will be able to launch a second wave of retaliation against Jin Dongdong.
The second letter was sent by Xu Ren: The situation on the front line is already known. The state of Jin has not broken through the defense of the Xiandai River for two days. I am afraid that Nanyang County and Dongyuan County are holding back. In this way, there must be hatred and rifts between Jin State, Nanyang County, and Dongyuan County.
You can try to contact Kong Donglai, the governor of Nanyang County, and Yuan Yong, the current interim head of Dongyuan County, and promise to use "heavy profits" to instigate rebellion against the two parties, and jointly retain all the 300,000 troops of Jin.
One of the "heavy profits": to bury the 300,000 troops, remove 20% of the main force of the Jin State, the coach of the Jin State, and one of the four generals of the Jin State; then Dongyuan County and Nanyang County can invade the Jin State to the south and expand. land. We can cooperate with dispatching troops and even provide sufficient ammunition.
"Great profit" two: technical support. Mainly the lowest level of machine tools, that's our original machine tool technology.
We have now become the target of public criticism. Only by properly releasing some technologies can we guarantee our advantages; and only by properly releasing some technologies can we "lead others by the nose."
The third letter is from Li Xian: Full authority to handle all matters on the front line.
After reading these letters, Yan Zhengqing smiled slightly, and said to himself, "Jin wants to make peace? It's too late! You want to give in, but we don't want to!"
Well, let's get in touch with Kong Donglai and Yuan Yong secretly first, and see what their attitudes are. "
As soon as he thought of it, Yan Zhengqing wrote a letter immediately, and then asked his cronies to carefully go to the south bank of the Xiandai River. Those who send letters to Yuan Yong are better, although they are far away, they don't need to sneak around; those who send letters to Kong Donglai should be more careful, if necessary, they can be sent to Nangong Zhi first, and then passed on to Kong Donglai.
Sending a letter to Kong Donglai was not because he was afraid that Li Lisong, the Marshal of the Jin Kingdom, would find out—it would be better if he found out. I was just worried about arousing Li Lisong's vigilance, and he couldn't keep all the 300,000 troops of Jin State!
After sending the letter, Yan Zhengqing just waited patiently. This kind of job of sending letters is actually very dangerous. Many people die halfway, and some messengers may even be picked out and beaten to death in a fair manner, so as to show their ambitions.
In the dark night, a new storm is brewing.
Marshal Li Lisong of the Jin State wanted to use the power of the Jin State to blackmail Anyang's technology, and then pat his ass and leave, leaving the army of Nanyang County and Dongyuan County to face the anger of Anyang County.
However, Kong Donglai, the governor of Nanyang County, and Yuan Yong, the governor of Dongyuan County, wanted to make Anyang and Jin collide.
As for Anyang, it seemed that they were more skilled. Xu Ren judged the hidden information from the clues, and planned to unite with Nanyang County and Dongyuan County to harm Jin. For this reason, Anyang is even willing to give up the hatred with Nanyang County and Dongyuan County.
All three parties have their own considerations and calculations.
In addition, Anyang even dispatched five ironclad ships, preparing to bomb the eastern coast of Jin State into a barren beach!
In the black night, there are countless hidden dirts, and the most intense confrontation is unfolding among many parties; the loser may suffer heavy losses. Especially the weakest one in Dongyuan County, once it fails, it is very likely that it will be lost forever!
Anyang did not stop the shelling. Although there were not many shellings, at least none of the soldiers on the south bank dared to sleep. It can't be said that the next shell fell on his head.
As for cultivators, it’s okay to not sleep for three to five days; some people can meditate continuously for more than ten days, or even a month or two, but in war situations, the consumption of energy is immeasurable.
These soldiers were very tired, but they could only hold on and dare not sleep.
The atmosphere on both sides of the Xiandai River was extremely heavy and depressing!
…………
The same dark night, the same oppression, and the court of Jin.
During the day, the east coast suffered unprecedented bombing and unprecedented destruction. However, the state of Jin is relatively large, and it is almost three thousand miles from the sea to the imperial capital of the state of Jin, "Lequan City". Even if a Jindan master flies at full strength, it will take nearly four hours or two hours; but a cultivator is also a human being, and will be tired and need to rest.
In this way, it went on for six hours, and in the middle of the night, the messenger arrived at the imperial capital with a pale face, and shouted: "Hurry up for thousands of miles, the country will be destroyed!"
"The disaster of subjugation!" A loud roar echoed over the capital of the Jin Kingdom. His Majesty the Emperor was pulled from the bed by the maid, and hurried to the court; all the civil and military officials hurriedly got up, only had time to put on casual clothes, and flew directly to the palace without the servants carrying the sedan chair.
Afterwards, the entire court of the Jin Kingdom heard about an unprecedented tragedy!
