Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 710

[Chapter 710]

“This is yours.” Zhao Xu gave Xu Lie a look.

Like Liu Fu and Yang He, he also gave Chang Wei and Yang Feng a booklet.

The above is the content of the in-depth reform he mentioned.

After all, the short period between now and the launch of the steamship is a rare window period, which is very suitable for reform.

He wanted to make a big move before, but it was inconvenient due to the involvement of the war.

This time, in addition to the change of the title of the general, the brochure also required Yang Feng and Chang Wei to form a staff department.

Its main tasks are to give generals instructions, collect and provide battlefield intelligence, and take charge of the army’s equipment replacement, military training, and management.

In the contemporary Napoleon period, there was a staff department, whose duties were equivalent to a military division, and was responsible for providing operational advice to generals.

Most importantly, this is a formalized construction of the army.

The modern army defeated the feudal army not only in firearms, but also in the excellent military system.

The court meeting started in the morning and lasted until noon.

After discussing a lot of details with the officials and generals, Zhao Xu asked everyone to disperse.

Out of the palace.

Chang Wei asked Liu Fu mysteriously, “I heard that His Highness is getting married? Is it the granddaughter of Duke Yi?

” I’m married at the age of 20, and now Your Highness finally meets a lover, which really relieves a problem I was waiting for.” Liu Fu crossed his arms, and the corners of his mouth were full of smiles.

Chang Wei nodded, “Indeed, but it’s a pity that I came back one step late…”

Liu Fu heard the words, looked at Chang Wei with a serious face, and suddenly patted him on the shoulder, “You don’t want your daughter to marry Your Highness? I remember that your daughter is less than ten years old this year.”

“So what, you can be a child bride.” Chang Wei squinted at Liu Fu.

“Hahaha…” Liu Fu couldn’t help laughing, “Pull it down, your daughter looks 80% similar to you, she really married His Highness, and when His Highness got up in the middle of the night, she thought she was sleeping with you.

” You should have a bad tongue, I will beat you up today.” Chang Wei jumped up and cursed after hearing this, rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat you up.

Liu Fu took three steps and two steps, but he came to Yang Feng’s side and gave Chang Wei a provocative look.

It means that if he dared to do something, he would tell Duke Yi what he said.

Seeing this, Chang Wei had no choice but to withdraw angrily.

He didn’t want to provoke the veteran.

What’s more, he just regrets that he doesn’t have a daughter who is as knowledgeable and reasonable as Yang Zhen, who is both talented and beautiful.

Otherwise, he would really have to fight.

Back to the General’s Mansion in Beidaying.

He and Yang Feng flipped through the brochure given to them by the King of Yan, preparing to reorganize the royal army.

On the one hand, he gave Qin Shan and Guan Tong in Yangcheng an order to lead their soldiers and horses to Xiangcheng to wipe out the powerful clans in Jiangbei.

Jingzhou is the thoroughfare of Kyushu, adjacent to Bozhou.

Starting from Yangcheng, Qinshan and Guantong only need to cross Bozhou to reach Jingzhou, the distance is only more than 300 li.

After five days of trekking, Qin Shan and Guan Tong arrived with an army of more than 80,000 people.

Originally, when their 15th army crossed the river, Lu Chang took 30,000 away and left 30,000 in Yangcheng.

From Qizhou to Yangcheng, some soldiers were killed or injured.

This is the only amount they can take away.

…

Jingzhou.

Xiangcheng.

Another royal army came from the east, and the news spread to Xiangcheng immediately.

royal palace.

After a short hesitation, Dou Wei said to Dou Mu: “Your Majesty, the three powerful clans crossed the river, and now they are confronting King Yan across the Jiujiang River, which allows King Yan to spare most of his troops to concentrate on dealing with my Nanliang.”

Dou Mu’s face turned pale . Pale, during this period of time, the situation that took a turn for the worse made him unable to sleep peacefully every night.

When Xiao Cheng returned to Xiangcheng from Qizhou, Ma Han’s troops retreated north and returned to Wuguan.

But if Xiao Cheng’s army and Beidi cavalry showed any signs of leaving, they would come back again.

Always keep the Nanliang army and Beidi cavalry unable to move.

As a result, they have been unable to provide support to the other three families.

Now, they, Nanliang, were afraid that they would be accused of treachery again.

The Xie family and other powerful families will never trust them again.

Therefore, they will definitely not help Nanliang in the current crisis.

“The three powerful families are not the opponents of the King of Yan. I’m afraid that our Southern Liang will be too lonely to support. If the soldiers of the Ma family and the army of the King of Yan from the east are attacking from the east and the north, the fall of Xiangcheng is imminent. .” Dou Mu looked downcast.

During this period of time, it was enough for them to see how powerful the Ma family’s soldiers and horses are.

The firearms used by these Ma family soldiers have a long range and great power.

Their soldiers fought with it, simply to die.

After the Beidi cavalry returned to Xiangcheng, they tried to encircle and suppress the Ma family army.

But after encountering the opponent’s hollow phalanx and leaving behind thousands of corpses, they no longer dared to attack rashly.

According to the response of the Beidi cavalry, they were 200 meters away, and the Ma family soldiers could shoot and kill their cavalry.

And the opponent’s bullets are as accurate as bows and arrows.

Two hundred meters, this is a distance that they can’t believe, not to mention it is so accurate.

This, ultimately destroys their confidence.

However, before the three clans went south, they were lucky.

I hope that Liang Kai will make a move and defeat King Yan together with the three families.

But the actual situation is that the three powerful families traveled south, and Wu Guo took the opportunity to attack Xiangzhou, which made him suffer from enemies in Nanliang.

There is no place for the Dou family to stand in the south of the Yangtze River.

“Therefore, before our soldiers and horses of the Dou family are lost to the soldiers and horses of the King of Yan, we should make a decisive decision and retreat to Yizhou, relying on the natural danger that one man in Yizhou can guard the gate and ten thousand people can’t open it, and resist the King of Yan.” Dou Wei advised, “Otherwise, if we go to Yizhou without soldiers and horses, how can we suppress the Xiao family?”

Dou Mu nodded. From the very beginning, their strategy was to keep the soldiers and horses of the Dou family.

This is the capital of their Dou family, and it is also the foundation for Nanliang to continue to exist.

“Since that’s the case, we should withdraw to Yizhou now before the soldiers and horses from Yanzhou reach Xiangcheng. Only in this way, the entire Jiangbei will fall into the hands of King Yan.” Dou Mu’s face was painful.

He wholeheartedly wanted to defeat King Yan, but faced the cruel reality again and again, his heart was very anxious.

Dou Wei patted Dou Mu on the shoulder, “Your Majesty, if you keep the green hills there, you won’t have to worry about firewood. Yizhou has been known as the land of abundance since ancient times. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you manage it carefully, it will be ten times better than Jingzhou. Don’t be sorry.

” , He continued: “Furthermore, Beidi is attacking Tubo, and we have gone to Yizhou. In the future, we can rely on Beidi, and when we recover, it will not be too late to retake Jingzhou.”

Dou Mu nodded slightly.

After deciding on this matter, Dou Mu officially ordered to move the capital to Yizhou.

Immediately, they left some soldiers and horses to garrison Xiangcheng, and hundreds of thousands of troops marched out from the south gate of Xiangcheng to Yizhou.
