Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Piaotian Literature The southern part of the North Vietnam returned to the control of the North Vietnam after the Le Chao army withdrew, but this good news did not free Zheng Zai from his troubles.  Two days before receiving this good news, the Le Chao North Route Army, led by Zheng Zhuang, invaded Ha Tay Prefecture and fought a battle with the coalition forces of the three houses of the Nguyen Phuc family in Ha Tay Prefecture.  Falling into enemy hands, Nguyen Phuc's army could only defend Ha Dong City and wait for Zheng Zai to send reinforcements.

    "Is there anything Luo Min can do?" Zheng Zai and Nguyen Phuc Luo Min were sitting across from each other in the Ping'an Palace in Thang Long Palace. If Zheng Zhuang attacked Hedong City, not only the coalition forces of Ruan Phuc's three palaces would be reduced to ashes, but also Thang Long Palace.  The last barrier has also been lost, which is not good news for Zheng Zai and Ruan Phuc Luo Min.

    ¡°Your Majesty, I think that Hedong City cannot be lost, and dispatching reinforcements as soon as possible is the top priority.¡± Nguyen Phuc Loc Min deeply regretted his decision to choose Ruan Phuc Shou over Ruan Phuc Bao.  The Le Chao army placed eight warships in the southern part of North Vietnam, easily blocking the road for reinforcements from North Vietnam to go south. The soldiers of various provinces were afraid of facing the threat of artillery, and huddled in Thang Long Palace and refused to go south. However, this obstacle was easily overcome by the Lang Son Army.  Eliminated, it is in line with the old saying that comparing people to others will lead to death, and goods must be thrown away.

    "The public statement of Luo Min is reasonable, but where will the reinforcements be dispatched from?" There are nearly 80,000 troops gathered in Shenglong Mansion, and there are more than 30,000 Zheng clan soldiers directly under Zheng Zai. Unfortunately, Zheng Zai has very little control over these troops.  Weak, he can only command the army to fight with the consent of the Zheng family elders.  Send Thang Long Mansion?  Don't even think about it.

    "Your Majesty, in addition to the soldiers of the Zheng clan, there are also many soldiers from other provinces in Thang Long Mansion. I believe the elders will not stop these soldiers from being sent to Hedong City." Ruan Phuc Luo Min knew the inside story of the Zheng family better than Zheng Zai, and smiled.  Wake up Zheng Zai.

    "Thank you Luo Min Gong for your advice. I know what to do." Zheng Zai can only control an army of about 10,000 people. He really wants to keep more soldiers from various provinces in Shenglong Palace so that he can use these soldiers to check and balance the Zheng family.  Elders who were at odds with him.  Ruan Phuoc Luo Min's request was reasonable, but it was not in line with Zheng Zai's personal interests. If Zheng Zhuang's Li Chao army had not been too intimidating, Zheng Zai would not have accepted this suggestion at all.

    "Mr. Luo Min, what should you do with this good news?" After discussing the issue of reinforcements, Zheng Zai pointed to the good news on the coffee table. This matter was not good news for Zheng Zai and Ruan Fu.

    "Humph, the prince does not need to worry. I have heard that in order to prevent the generals from taking credit, the Ming Dynasty court will send people to test the military exploits, and reward them when they are confirmed to be the true ones. The prince can send people to Nanding Mansion to check. You can't do the following.  Let it be whatever people say!" Neither Ruan Phuc Luo Min nor Zheng Zai will make it easy for Ji Hongchang. Although there are many palace owners co-signing this good news, the possibility of fraud is not high, but it cannot be completely overturned. It does not mean that  There is no other way, Ruan Phuoc Luo Min's procrastination tactic is very constructive.

    "Gong Luo Min is as wise as the sea, and I have learned from him." Zheng Zai quickly understood the benefits of dragging the word tactic, and bowed his hand to Ruan Phuc Luo Min with a smile on his face.

    Zheng Zhuang also received an urgent report that was similar to the one Zheng Zai read, and was very dissatisfied with Li Zhenzong's behavior of fleeing without a fight.  "Uncle, this is going to be troublesome." Originally, Zheng Zhuang led the Li Chao army to pursue the victory, capture Hedong City, and then go straight to Shenglong Mansion.  Unexpectedly, the East Route Army and the Middle Route Army were successively defeated. Li Zhenzong ran back to Li Dynasty with tens of thousands of people, leaving him alone in the territory of Vietnam and Northern Dynasty.

    "King Qingdu, please be patient. Li Weiyou's son has not taken responsibility and will be better controlled in the future. There are two ways to deal with it now. Do you want to hear it?" Zheng Yiguan shook his fan in an old way, as if he was the incarnation of Zhu Geliang.

    "Please give me some advice, uncle." Zheng Zhuang said in a very cooperative manner, which was regarded as a qualified compliment.

    "The first plan is to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao. We don't care what the trouble is in the south, we just attack the city and seize the stronghold and force the troops to force Thanglong Palace. When the time comes, Zheng Zai's troops from the south will naturally return to Thanglong Palace to rescue him, and the crisis in Qinghua will be resolved.  "What's going on with this Qinghua crisis?  This was made up by Li Zhenzong and Li Weiyou in order to prevent the big boss Zheng Zhuang from holding him responsible for running away from the battle.  His emergency report emphasized that there were more than 50,000 Vietnamese and North Korean troops. After capturing Nam Dinh City and Ninh Binh City, they were marching towards Bien Son in Thanh Hoa, with their troops directed at Thanh Hoa City, the capital of the Le Dynasty.

    Li Zhenzong is not afraid of Zheng Zhuang exposing this lie. If Zheng Zhuang sends his troops to come back for reinforcements, Li Zhenzong can say that the enemy is afraid that Wang's army will withdraw to Nanding Prefecture, and Zheng Zhuang has nothing else to do.

    "Than Hoa City cannot be lost. If the Northern Army invades Thanh Hoa City, even if I occupy Thang Long Palace, the gain will outweigh the losses." Zheng Zhuang is still very clear-headed. He knows that his roots are in Thanh Hoa Palace. If the Northern Army is attacked by the Northern Army, the gain will not be worth the loss.  When he invaded Thanh Hoa City, he would suffer the greatest loss. The heads of the various palaces in the Li Dynasty would probably just burst into laughter and would definitely not lend a hand to rescue him.

    "No, no, the King of Qingdu is biased." Zheng Yiguan continued to play Zhu Geliang, even using the lines of a famous actor.  Zheng Zhuang frowned, "Uncle, can you teach me?"

    ??"King Qingdu, if you occupy Thang Long Palace, all the northern and southern parts of Vietnam will fall into your hands. Even if the northern army is not in a hurry to return to Thang Long Palace, it will not dare to continue to attack Thanh Hoa City. One by one, several  How can an army of ten thousand people fight without food and grass?" Zheng always tried to be mysterious, taking a big detour for a very simple matter, but fortunately Zheng Zhuang had a quick mind and understood what he meant.

    "Yes, Nam Dinh Prefecture does not have much food and grass. The supply of the Northern Army must be allocated from Thang Long Prefecture, Ha Xi Prefecture, and He Nan Prefecture. As long as Ha Xi Prefecture is taken and Thang Long Prefecture is surrounded, Henan Prefecture alone will not be able to supply enough food.  Wan Dajun, they won't be able to turn back if they don't want to." After Zheng Zhuang figured it out, he immediately flattered Zheng Yiguan. Unfortunately, he didn't realize that Zheng Yiguan was playing Zhu Geliang, so his words of praise never scratched the itch.  , which made Zheng Guanyi slightly unhappy.

    Zheng Yiguan cleared his throat, shook his feather fan and calmly stopped Zheng Zhuang's flattery, and continued, "This second plan is to cut off the enemy's rear and attack from both front and rear." Zheng Yiguan pointed at the wall hanging with his feather fan.  The map states, "Add Chunmei City through Gaoyang and Dongjiang to Nam Dinh Prefecture, seize Ninh Binh City to cut off the enemy's rear, and then engage in front and rear pincer attacks with the defenders in Thanh Hoa City to destroy the Northern Army.  It will be easy to seize Nanding Mansion."

    Zheng Yiguan¡¯s strategy is still very reliable, provided that Li Zhenzong¡¯s virtual tens of thousands of Northern troops have entered Thanh Hoa House.  In fact, Zhou Shixiong placed all his elite troops in Ningping City and was taking the route mentioned by Zheng Yiguan to invade Heping Mansion.

    At the beginning, Zhou Shixiong arranged for Li Xiaobin to lead the camp at night and lurk near Ningping City, preparing to use it as a surprise force when attacking Ningping City.  But the war that Zhou Shixiong expected did not happen at all. Li Xiaobin could only watch tens of thousands of troops withdrawing before his eyes. He was not brave enough to attack tens of thousands of troops with only 500 elites.

    ¡°However, Li Xiaobin is worthy of being the best at night. He caught a lot of tongues during the lurking period and interrogated Li Chaojun¡¯s true and false. When Zhou Shixiong arrived, Li Xiaobin produced a large stack of information as a gift.  Congratulations to Zhou Shixiong for defeating Nanding Mansion.

    "This Zheng Zhuang is indeed brave. He dared to attack the Northern and Northern Dynasties with only 20,000 elites and 40,000 regular soldiers. It's amazing." After reading the information, Zhou Shixiong couldn't help but slap his thigh and praised Zheng Zhuang loudly.  It turned out that the Li Chao army, which was said to have 200,000, only had 20,000 Yulin guards directly under Zheng Zhuang and 40,000 government soldiers. The others were all unarmed civilians.  The reason why Zheng Zhuang is so bold is that Zheng Yiguan's role is very important.  Zheng Zhuang had secretly formed an alliance with Zheng Yiguan a long time ago. The two sides agreed that after seizing the North Vietnam Dynasty, Zheng Zhuang would enfeoff four palaces except Shenglong Palace to Zheng Yiguan as a reward, and also give Zheng Yiguan the title of King Ping'an.

    "It seems that Heping Mansion can't defeat it. Zheng Zhuang's 40,000-feather forest guards bravely conquered the Li Dynasty, and I often heard about it. Now Zheng Zhuang personally leads 15,000 feather forest guards in Heping Mansion. We soldiers  I'm afraid it's not enough!" Van Gandhi was the first to give in and opposed the suggestion of attacking Heping Mansion.

    Zheng Dong knows the Yulin Guards better than Fan Gandhi, because the main force of the army surrounding Henan Prefecture is the Yulin Guards.  "Palace Master Fan is overly worried. Although Yu Linwei is famous far and wide, I don't think it's that big of a deal. If he is really that powerful, I won't have the chance to chat with Palace Master Fan here."

    Zhou Shixiong knew that Zheng Dong¡¯s confidence came from the thirty-two artillery pieces. He didn¡¯t really think that the tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops in Ningping City could defeat the Yulin Guards. The problem was that if artillery was used to break through the city wall, the ensuing siege battle would be necessary.  Use soldiers to determine the outcome. If the Habayashi Guards are very strong, wouldn't these tens of thousands of miscellaneous troops die in vain?

    "Li Yingguan, do you have accurate information about the Yulin Guards?" Zhou Shixiong turned over the paper in his hand and found no information related to the Yulin Guards.

    "Sir, I once captured a small flag of a Yulin Guard, but I didn't control the intensity of the arrest, and he died before being interrogated." Li Xiaobin was a little ashamed, knowing that the strongest enemy force was the Yulin Guard.  But they failed to collect relevant information, which was a dereliction of duty.  In fact, we can't blame Li Xiaobin. Yu Linwei has been following Zheng Zhuang, and others are not qualified to contact them. It is definitely not that easy to find out the information.

    What Zhou Shixiong is worried about is not that the Habayashi Guards are too strong, but that the miscellaneous army will not obey the command. Once someone escapes during the battle, it will definitely cause panic and cause the army to collapse.  He knew that the two palace masters also understood this, but they had nothing to do. After all, these palace soldiers were not their subordinates. It would be good if they could follow you and wave the flag and shout. It was a bit too much to want to fully control the command!

    The three palace masters sat in the government office of Ningping City and thought hard about how to deal with these miscellaneous troops. Zheng Zhuang made a final decision in Hexi Palace. He chose the first strategy suggested by Zhu Geliang and continued to attack Hedong City.  Clear the way for the attack on Shenglong Mansion.  When Zhou Shixiong received the news, Zheng Zhuang had been fighting fiercely with the reinforcements sent by Shenglong Mansion for several days, and was temporarily in a stalemate.
