The world of film and television begins with Ning'an as a dream

Mr. Su, do you have a way to deal with this kind of warship? If you can't deal with the Yue navy, Nanjing will be in great danger."

Mei Changsu pondered for a moment and said with difficulty, "I'm afraid the only way to stop the enemy temporarily is to sink the ships and block the river. Then, by cooperating with the catapults on the shore, we may be able to stop the Yue navy."

Prince Jing was silent for a moment, then said sincerely, "Then sir, please go back to your residence and rest. I will come to visit you after the war."

Mei Changsu sighed and said firmly, "Your Highness, I will go with you. If the Yue navy really comes, we can come up with a plan based on the situation."

Prince Jing hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed. He was really unsure about the legendary terrifying battleship.

……

Prince Yu's Mansion,

Qin Banruo looked at Prince Yu who was sitting on the main seat and said very seriously, "Your Highness, for now, I'm afraid there is only one way to choose."

Prince Yu looked back at Qin Banruo and asked uncertainly, "What do you want to say?"

Qin Banruo bowed solemnly to Prince Yu, and then said word by word, "This is Prajna's last plan. I believe that Your Highness knows very well that if Your Highness still wants to be the emperor, this is the only way."

Prince Yu shook his head and said helplessly, "With His Majesty here, he is on guard against everyone. We don't stand a chance at all."

Seeing that Prince Jing was somewhat interested, Qin Banruo thought of the plan that Wang Yue had sent over.

Wang Yue told Qin Banruo that if Yue State took over the entire Daliang at once, as long as other countries took action, they might not be able to hold on for a while.

So, he gave Qin Banruo two suggestions.

The first suggestion was to have Qin Banruo instigate Prince Yu to control Hanzhong and Shuzhong and establish his own independence, so that Daliang would fall into internal strife and reduce the losses in the war with Yue State.

The second suggestion is to let Prince Yu knock Emperor Liang unconscious, and then have the Queen order Prince Yu to act as regent. In this way, the prefectures and counties under Daliang will also fall into chaos.

The first method is to help Yue defend against Xili Yeqin Dayu, so that Yue can free up its hands to deal with Northern Yan and Southern Chu, which should be no problem.

Another way is to maintain a stalemate at the current defense line. Other countries will not dare to act rashly, and Yue State will be able to digest the existing land.

In short, no matter which one it is, it is actually to buy time for the State of Yue and try to ensure that it is not invaded by other countries while fighting for land.

So, Qin Banruo said very seriously, "So, Your Majesty must be sick!"

Prince Yu suddenly raised his head and said in disbelief, "Are you talking about poisoning?"

Qin Banruo shook his head and said helplessly, "Your Highness, only when His Majesty is ill will Your Highness have the opportunity to take action."

Prince Yu was somewhat moved, but still a little uncertain, and said, "So what do you think will happen after my father falls ill?"

Qin Banruo understood that Prince Yu was ready to take action, so she told Wang Yue the two suggestions. After she finished speaking, she said seriously, "Your Highness, if you are sure you can control the situation, choose the second one, if not, choose the first one.

If you choose the first one, there is no need to kill His Majesty. Just make him unconscious for a short period of time. Your Highness can lead the troops to control Shu, and at least become a local lord like the King of Yue.

When we have more soldiers and horses in the future, it won’t be too late to come back and fight for the world.”

Prince Yu hesitated for only a short while before making a decision immediately. After all, he had no other choice left.

……

When Wang Yue arrived in Runan, Chen Qingzhi probably sensed the danger and had retreated to Chenliu County. He also intended to lure out the army led by Cao Jingzong.

General Wei had also left Nanyang with his troops and arrived in Yingchuan, apparently preparing to defeat Chen Qianzhi first and then return to take back Runan.

Wang Yue read the news sent by the Jinyiwei and studied the marching direction of General Wei, and realized that General Wei wanted to attack Chen Qianzhi's troops from the side.

He studied the map and felt that he could work together with Chen Qianzhi in Huaiyang State to deal with General Wei.

If they could wipe out General Wei's 50,000 troops, it would be better for the two of them to join forces to deal with Cao Jingzong.

After making up his mind, Wang Yue sent someone to deliver a letter to Chen Qianzhi, preparing to implement this plan.

……

Chenliu County, County Magistrate's Office

Chen Qingzhi looked at the plan given by Wang Yue and couldn't help but frown.

It has to be said that Wang Yue's idea was very good. He only needed to leave 10,000 soldiers to guard Chenliu to attract Cao Jingzong's troops here, and he could indeed launch a surprise attack on General Wei Rui.

Even if Cao Jingzong discovered their intention and chased after them, Wang Yue and he would be able to eliminate General Wei first and then work together to deal with Cao Jingzong.

But he felt that this was Daliang's territory after all. If the news from Daliang spread faster, Cao Jingzong would join forces with General Wei, and the two sides would confront each other, then it would be hard to say when this war would end.

After all, Daliang's territory is much larger than Yue's. In the words he heard from Wang Yue, its war potential is huge, so a quick victory is necessary.

He hesitated for a moment, then said to his deputy general Wang Qianchen, "Qianchen, since the prince has issued the order, you should immediately lead 50,000 troops south to join the prince in ambush Wei Rui."

After all, Wang Qianchen had worked with Chen Qingzhi for a long time. After hearing what Chen Qingzhi said, he asked uncertainly, "Prime Minister, after I leave, you will have less than 20,000 soldiers. You are not planning to ambush Cao Jingzong while he is chasing our army, are you?"

Chen Qingzhi nodded and said seriously, "Cao Jingzong has less than 70,000 soldiers and horses. If he besieges Chenliu, he will not be able to break through the city wall in a short time. You just need to destroy Wei Rui's troops as soon as possible with the prince, and then come to rescue them."

Wang Qianchen analyzed it and felt it made sense. He thought it would be better to go out of the city to fight himself, after all, his martial arts were better than Chen Qianzhi's.

In other words, even if he died, as long as Chen Qianzhi was still alive, it would not affect the overall situation.

So, he also cupped his hands like Chen Qianzhi and said solemnly, "I obey your command!"

……

Wang Yue still underestimated Wei Rui, an old man who had fought in wars all his life. When the old general Wei Rui saw Wang Yue's troops appear in his field of vision, he changed the formation without hesitation.

The entire army was like a hedgehog, waiting for Wang Yue to attack. The entire team slowly retreated, obviously wanting to retreat to the nearby city and then fight in the city!

Wang Yue looked at the current situation and knew that there was no time to lose, so he immediately ordered the light cavalry to begin harassing with bows and arrows to prevent Wei Rui's army from retreating.

At the same time, after the infantry phalanx got closer, the crossbows began to tentatively measure the distance.

After the two sides tested each other, the advantage of Yue's bow and arrow range was revealed. Wang Yue immediately ordered the infantry to advance slowly and not to be too impatient.

Although the range of the crossbows of Wei Rui's troops was slightly shorter, they had shieldmen blocking in front and archers firing back in the gaps between the shields, so the losses of Wei Rui's army were slightly lighter than those of Wang Yue.

The entire battle entered a tense stage from the beginning, and the casualties on both sides continued to increase. Although Wei Rui's troops suffered greater losses, Wang Yue's side also suffered heavy losses.

The battle lasted for two hours. Wei Rui lost 10,000 of his 50,000 soldiers, but Wang Yue's 50,000 soldiers also suffered 6,000 casualties.

Of course, relatively few people on Wang Yue's side died in the battle, and most of them were taken to the back for treatment after being injured.

However, if the fighting continued like this, even if Wang Yue destroyed Wei Rui's army, the reinforcements led by Wang Yue would be crippled.

At this critical moment, Wang Qianchen arrived with a large army. Wang Yue had an army of 100,000 gathered together, and had an absolute advantage.

But before Wang Yue could take any action, Wei Rui suddenly made a bold move, leaving behind 10,000 soldiers to stop the enemy, and he led the remaining 30,000 men to retreat in a hurry.

Wang Yue asked Wang Qianchen to lead his troops to stay and wipe out the 10,000 troops, while he himself led more than 40,000 troops to pursue them.

However, Wei Rui seemed to be well prepared and retreated very quickly. Wang Yue could only watch Wei Rui retreat into Kunyang County.

Faced with Wei Rui's army that had already prepared for defense, Wang Yue could only sigh at the sight of the city.

When Wang Qianchen wiped out the 10,000 Daliang soldiers and rushed over, he looked at the solid city walls and realized that they had no way to deal with Wei Rui.

After all, as the art of war says, if your number is ten, surround it; if your number is five, attack it; if your number is twice as many, divide it.

They now have a total of more than 90,000 soldiers capable of fighting, and Wei Rui probably has more than 40,000 soldiers under his command. It would probably be very difficult to capture Kunyang City.

Wang Qianchen frowned and asked worriedly, "My Lord, what should we do next?"

Wang Yue thought for a long time but couldn't find a way to break through the city wall. However, if he didn't attack, leaving these 4 soldiers here might stab the Kingdom of Yue at any time, which was too dangerous.

He shook his head helplessly and was about to say that they had to attack by force, but before he gave the order, he suddenly thought of a question.

He remembered a legend that Chen Qianzhi was a man of great courage when fighting. He would chase and fight tens of thousands of people with only a few thousand of them. He could fight with courage alone and didn't care about the number of people at all.

Originally Wang Yue didn't believe this legend, but after the battle of Hefei, Chen Qianzhi let himself go, which forced him to believe it.

Wang Yue felt that after taking this small county, there might be countless more counties to fight in the future. After all, with this old man around, every battle would be a tough one.

But if Chen Qianzhi was killed by someone, he would suffer a great loss.

So he simply said, "The combined cavalry of our two armies is 30,000. You lead the cavalry back to Chenliu. I am worried that our Prime Minister will not defend the city honestly. He may go out of the city and fight Cao Jingzong in the field. It is too dangerous."

Wang Qianchen thought about it and thought it was possible. He did not refuse and immediately accepted the order and said, "Your humble servant obeys!"

Wang Yue saw that Wang Qianchen had left, so he left 20,000 soldiers in Xu County to guard against Wei Rui's pursuit, and then led his troops to Chenliu.

Wei Rui was ready to defend the city, but he did not expect Wang Yue to retreat decisively. While he felt relieved, he was also worried about Cao Jingzong, so he quickly sent several scouts to deliver a letter.

Wang Yue wasted most of the day, and when he arrived, he saw Wang Qianchen and Chen Qingzhi cleaning up the battlefield. But Chen Qingzhi liked to wear that white robe, which had long been dyed red.

Wang Yue couldn't help but twitch his lips. This guy couldn't help but leave the city.

Sure enough, when Chen Qingzhi saw Wang Yue coming, he hurried over. He was afraid that Wang Yue would criticize him first, so he said proudly, "Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission. Not only did I defeat Cao Jingzong's troops, I also shot Cao Jingzong to death!"

Wang Yue's words of criticism were stuck in his mouth. He asked in disbelief, "Cao Jingzong is dead? Are you kidding?"

Chen Qingzhi shook the longbow in his hand and said proudly, "It's all thanks to the longbow that the prince gave me. Cao Jingzong never thought that this bow could shoot so far, and I shot him down with one arrow."

Wang Yue looked at the longbow, which was carefully made by his craftsmen. There were only a few hundred of them in the entire Yue Kingdom, and the one Chen Qianzhi had was one of the best.

Since Chen Qianzhi was fine, he didn't blame him anymore. He immediately pulled over the march map and prepared to study what to do next.

He discovered that after Cao Jingzong was killed, the entire Luoyang area was left with a lack of troops. Although he didn't have time to capture Tongguan, he could still capture Hulao Pass.

As long as we control this place and deploy the Yue navy here, we can completely stop the southern invasion of Northern Yan and Dayu just like we blocked the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

When he got to this point, he immediately turned around and asked, "Qianchen, you lead 30,000 soldiers to take Hulao Pass and capture it for me. After you take it, you will be stationed there temporarily and wait for my subsequent orders."

After hearing this, Chen Qingzhi asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of the opportunity to capture Luoyang? Or even control Tongguan?"

Wang Yue sighed and said helplessly, "You may not have been there, but I was there 13 years ago. Due to the long wars over the years, nine out of ten houses in Chang'an and Luoyang are empty.

Chang'an City is a bit easier to deal with. At least after some repairs, it can barely accommodate a large army. However, Luoyang City is too badly damaged. It has no use value and is just a waste of manpower."

He paused here. He felt that this was a good opportunity to win people's hearts, so he said with melancholy, "Now when I think about the scene in Tongguan, a poem comes to my mind. After you listen to it, you will understand how bad the situation was there?"

Although Chen Qingzhi was surprised that he suddenly wrote a poem, he still asked curiously, "Your Majesty, what's the matter? Tell me about it."

Wang Yue looked towards the west and recited word by word, "The peaks and hills are like a gathering, the waves are like raging. The mountains and rivers are on the road to Tongguan. Looking at the Western Capital, I am hesitant, sad about the place where the Qin and Han dynasties passed. The palaces have all turned to dust.

When a country prospers, the people suffer. When a country perishes, the people suffer. "

Chen Qingzhi didn't care much about it at first. After all, Wang Yue came from a military background and he just read more books in the last ten years or so.

He was just worried that Wang Yue would continue to settle the score, so he deliberately diverted Wang Yue's attention.

But after listening to the poem Wang Yue recited, he couldn't help but tremble. He suddenly knelt down and bowed to Wang Yue. Then, when Wang Yue wanted to help her, he suddenly said,

"My Lord, please pacify the world as soon as possible and create a peaceful and prosperous era for the people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen generals standing around him knelt on the ground at the same time, shouting excitedly, "Please, Your Majesty, pacify the world as soon as possible and create a peaceful and prosperous era for the people!"

After listening to Wang Yuenian's poem, these generals, most of whom came from poor backgrounds and understood the horror of war, became very excited and started to roar along.

Chapter 126: Prince Yu rebelled!

At first, the other soldiers didn't know what was going on, but their generals had already knelt down and shouted, so of course they followed suit and knelt down too.

So, on this battlefield filled with smoke, hundreds of thousands of soldiers shouted together, and the scene was extremely shocking.

Wang Yue's heart was also surging. He shouted excitedly, "Please join me in pacifying the world and bringing peace to the people!"

He was overwhelmed by his emotions at the moment and really wanted to end this chaotic world as soon as possible and free the people from the days of displacement.

The soldiers felt Wang Yue's determination and shouted in unison, "We will follow you till death!"

The 100,000-strong army was in high spirits, and their fighting power was extremely terrifying. Except for the troops divided into several routes to defend various prefectures and counties, the remaining 70,000 soldiers were led by generals and rushed to some prefectures and counties that had not yet been recovered. They were unstoppable and met up with Wei Zheng and Wang Jing in just a few days.

Qian Chen, who had gone ahead, captured Hulao Pass as expected and locked the gate.

Taking into account the subsequent war, Wang Yue ordered Wei Zheng to station 50,000 troops in Qingzhou, and ordered Wang Qianchen to station at Hulao Pass in Bianzhou.

At the same time, the Qiantang Navy was dispatched to send 30,000 Lin'an imperial troops to Hulao Pass, where Wang Qian'an was stationed.

In this way, the northern line will be secure.

At the same time, Wang Jing was sent with 20,000 troops to Yingchuan to command the more than 30,000 soldiers stationed there.

Chen Qingzhi led 50,000 troops to station in Runan, and at the same time controlled the troops of the surrounding Yue State.

Wang Yue returned to Hefei and continued to deploy troops and transport supplies from various places to ensure that the army had sufficient supplies.

In this war, more than 200,000 soldiers and horses of the State of Yue crossed the river to fight, including 140,000 regular troops and the remaining 60,000 county soldiers along the Yangtze River.

Although these troops are second-line troops, they have sufficient pay and are trained just like the regular army. Although their combat effectiveness is somewhat weaker, they were very fierce in this fight.

There are still 60,000 standing troops in the territory of Yue State, but they are required to cooperate with the county troops to defend against the attack of Southern Chu, and can no longer be mobilized.

These military deployments are like this, but Wang Yue doesn't have to worry about the civil affairs deployment at all. Although the chief minister of the cabinet, Chen Qianzhi, has gone to fight, it still does not affect the operation of the cabinet.
