Dark Palm Jiaozhi Chapter 68: Who will win?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was extremely difficult to transmit information in ancient times. Heping Mansion was so troubled that Hexi Mansion next door didn't even know anything about it.  Zheng Zai and Nguyen Phuc Luo Min led the third batch of reinforcements to Hedong City, only to learn that the siege of Hedong City was resolved without a fight.

    "Mr. Luo Min, what do you think of this matter?" Zheng Zai did not expect that the war situation would take a turn for the worse. This time he brought all the 20,000 elite troops guarding Shenglong Mansion to Hedong City, just because he was afraid that Zheng Zhuang would break through Hedong City and besiege Shenglong Mansion.  Although Thang Long was the capital of the Northern Dynasty of Vietnam, it is located in a plain area with dense water networks and very convenient transportation. As an economic center, it certainly has great advantages, but as a battlefield, it is definitely a dead place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend.

    "Your Majesty, let's wait for the report of the expedition." Ruan Phuc Luo Min's expression was very relaxed. Zheng Zhuang suddenly withdrew his troops. The Ruan Phuc family's coalition forces stationed in Hexi Prefecture could finally breathe a sigh of relief. No matter why Zheng Zhuang wanted to withdraw, at least they don't have to worry about Hedong for now.  The city was captured, and the Nguyen Phuc clan's coalition forces retained most of their strength.

    "Report urgently from Taiyuan Prefecture, Henan Prefecture, and Lang Son Prefecture." This battle report was concocted by Zheng Dong himself. Originally, Zhou Shixiong only planned to report to Hedong City in his own name. Zheng Dong was worried that Ruan Phuc would rather watch Chun.  Meicheng would not send troops if it was captured, so if the names of the three people were written down, neither Ruan Phuc Luo Min nor Zheng Zai would dare to look down upon it.

    "Send it up." The troops of Ruan Fu and Zheng Zai were completely frightened by Zheng Zhuang's Yulin Guards. They didn't dare to leave Hedong City for a whole day, fearing that this was Zheng Zhuang's plan to lure a snake out of its cave.

    "Mr. Luo Min, Chunmei City was defeated by the coalition forces of the three prefectures. No wonder Zheng Zhuang wanted to withdraw his troops in a hurry!" Zheng Zai had some brains and knew the strategic significance of Chunmei City, so he quickly thought of Zheng Zhuang's withdrawal.

    "I didn't expect these three palace masters to have such courage. They dared to go straight in and steal Chunmei City with light troops. However, how can ten thousand soldiers and horses defend Chunmei City? I am only afraid that when the reinforcements arrive, Chunmei City has already changed hands."  Nguyen Phuc Loc Min will not stand on the side of his supporters in any matter related to Taiyuan and Lang Son.  After reading the battle report, he thought that he must delay the reinforcements from entering Heping Mansion. As for the consequences, he no longer cared.

    "It makes sense." Zheng Zai was not interested in being an internationalist warrior who saved his enemies, but then he thought about it. If he didn't take this opportunity to hurt Zheng Zhuang and Zheng Yiguan, once these two men recovered, he would still be the one to suffer.  , now is not the time to be idle.  "But not sending troops to rescue is always unjustifiable. Once word spreads, what will other people think? If every government withdraws its troops to protect itself, this battle will definitely be lost."

    A wry smile appeared at the corner of Ruan Fulomin's mouth. As soon as Zheng Zai couldn't say two words, he knew that this matter would be difficult to stumble. Whether it was for reputation or for this war, reinforcements had to be sent, and they had to be sent out as soon as possible.  .  He was so blinded by his personal hatred that he didn't consider the cost of plotting against these two enemies at all. It seemed like he was out of his mind!

    "Your Majesty's words are a great kindness. Nguyen Phuoc is obliged to send reinforcements." Ruan Phuc Luo Min knows how much Zheng Zai cherishes his troops and horses, so the main force of the reinforcements must fall on Nguyen Phuoc. Since  If you can't hide, just take the initiative and see if you can get some benefits.

    "Luo Minggong is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. I thank you." Of course Zheng Zai didn't want to send his only 20,000 elite troops to Heping Mansion to rescue those three guys. Seeing Ruan Phuoc Luo Min take action, he was in a good mood and started to flatter him. Anyway, Ma  Shit, this thing doesn¡¯t cost anything.

    Hedong City was filled with nearly 60,000 soldiers and horses from various provinces. The main force was of course the more than 20,000 Ruan Phuc clan's coalition forces and Zheng Zai's 20,000 elite soldiers. Ruan Phuc Luomin thought about it for a while, and if he wanted to do it, he should do it beautifully. He proposed to Zheng Zai  Two conditions, one is to reorganize the soldiers and horses of all provinces in Hedong City, and integrate all the soldiers except Zheng Zai's troops into the Nguyen Phuc clan's coalition army.  Zheng Zai knew very well what Ruan Phuc Luo Min had in mind. He wanted to recruit soldiers from various prefectures to supplement Ruan Phuc's strength.  Zheng Zai himself had such a plan, but Ruan Fuluo used the excuse of civilian reinforcements to attack, so Zheng Zai could only admit it by rubbing his nose.

    The second condition put forward by Nguyen Phuc Lok Min was that Zheng Zai should reward Chun Mui City to the Nguyen Phuc clan. Ruan Phuc Lok Min's reasons were also very good. He believed that only by transferring Chun Mui City to the Nguyen Phuc clan could the Nguyen Phuc clan's coalition have motivation.  If Zhou Shixiong heard this, he would definitely say, "Is this a revised version of the household responsibility system?"

    Although both Zheng Zai and Nguyen Phuc Luo Min believed that the reinforcements must leave as soon as possible, it still took two days to rectify the troops. By the time 40,000 reinforcements entered Heping Mansion and approached Xuan Mei City, it was already September 29th.

    "We are finally here. If we don't come, the people below may rebel." Zheng Dong stood at the top of the city and looked at the gray shadow in the distance, and said with a smile to Zhou Shixiong beside him.  Zhou Shixiong nodded, "Yes, I always feel uneasy after not seeing anyone for a day, but now I feel relieved."

    In order to paralyze Ruan Phuc and Zheng Zai, the sound of killings in Chunmei City has been loud these days. Except that no real people were touched, the attack and defense of the city were played as if they were real.  Actual combat exercises will also cause casualties, and the siege process will also cause casualties.?More than a hundred people slipped and fell while climbing the ladder, and acting had to pay the price with their lives.  In addition, the high-intensity actual combat exercises made both the offensive and defensive sides very tired. Fortunately, the food was good and provided enough nutrients, otherwise the scene would not be able to continue.

    "Sir, Palace Master Fan has sent a spy report. All the enemy troops have entered the encirclement. Palace Master Fan has blocked the official road. As soon as we take action, he will cover up and kill us from behind." Zhou Er handed Fan Ganji the spy report.  Zhou Shixiong was not interested in looking at it and handed it to Zheng Dong, "Of course there will be no problem with Palace Master Zheng's clever plan. As long as you are close, you can do it."

    In order to ensure the success rate of this conspiracy, the three people discussed several plans. For example, after Nguyen Phuc's arrival, the siege troops pretending to be Heping soldiers were temporarily withdrawn, and the place under the city was vacated for Nguyen Phuc's garrison.  Attack again.  The idea is good but unrealistic. Zhou Shixiong has commanded battles involving tens of thousands of people and knows that it is difficult for an army with low training to achieve precise control on the battlefield.  If the siege troops are pursued by the enemy when they retreat, it is difficult to guarantee that the troops will not retreat from retreat to rout.  Zhou Shixiong felt that this plan was too risky.

    After much discussion, Zheng Dong and Fan Ganji finally decided to hand over the command to Zhou Shixiong. After all, their actual combat skills were incomparable to Zhou Shixiong's, so they felt most at ease leaving it to him.  Zhou Shixiong's tactical arrangement is very simple. When the Nguyen Phuc family's coalition forces arrived at Xuan Mui City, the siege troops immediately formed a formation to meet the enemy. Then Xuan Mui City changed its flag, making the Nguyen Phuc family's coalition forces think that Xuan Mui City had been captured by Ha Binh Palace.  , Shaking the morale of the Nguyen Phuc coalition forces.  Then Van Gandhi led his troops to cover up the enemy from behind and completely defeated the Nguyen Phuc's coalition forces.

    This tactic does not require very precise command, as long as you choose the right time to change the flag of Chunmei City.  Zheng Dong and Fan Ganji were greatly appreciated after hearing this. This simple and effective tactic is the most suitable.

    In order to better control the coalition forces of the three provinces, Ruan Phuc Luo Min established the prestige of the clan leader and personally led the reinforcements.  Sitting on his simple-looking super-large carriage, Ruan Phuc Luo Min was giving instructions to several confidants.

    "Gong Zheng, Gong Hui, you brothers must keep an eye on the Yen Bai gang and don't let them take the lead." When they arrived at Heping Mansion, Ruan Phuc Luo Min finally figured out how many enemy troops were attacking Chun Mei City.  , after learning that the enemy army was only about 20,000, Ruan Phuc Luo Min felt relieved.  What he cares most about now is who can take the lead. After all, the three-prefecture coalition only has 10,000 troops who are his direct descendants, and the other 20,000 are troops from Ajiang Prefecture and Anbai Prefecture.  If the direct lineage of the clan leader cannot make a splash in this must-win battle, it will have a big impact on his control of the clan.

    Brothers Nguyen Phuc Chongzheng and Nguyen Phuc Chonghui are the direct grandsons of Nguyen Phuc Loc Min, and they are also the two most outstanding young people of Nguyen Phuc Loc Min's lineage.  Nguyen Phuoc Loc Min has been in charge of the Nguyen Phuoc family's economy for so many years, and has been working hard to build these two grandchildren, and these two grandchildren are also very successful. It only took four months to train the remaining soldiers of Tuyen Quang Palace into elite soldiers.  , his performance in this war between the two countries was very eye-catching.

    "Grandpa, don't worry. The soldiers of Ajiang and Anbai are not elite. If you want to compete with us brothers in battle, you will have to practice for a few more years." Ruan Phuc Gong Hui looked down on those peasant soldiers. Even if they have  He doesn't look down upon regular soldiers in full armor either.  He began to travel and study when he was young, which made him very broad-minded and also developed a bad habit of arrogance.

    "Second brother, don't talk nonsense. Although the soldiers and horses of the two palaces are not elite, they have improved a lot in these days, and they are not as good as before." Ruan Phuc Gongzheng lightly scolded his brother, and then said to Ruan Phuc Lomin, "Grandpa, the reinforcements are superior.  , as long as there are no major mistakes, the victory is already decided. As for the first victory, we may let it go. After all, Heping Mansion has not been pacified yet, and we don¡¯t know the current situation of Zheng Zhuang¡¯s traitors. It would be bad if there is internal fighting at this time. "

    Nguyen Phuc Lok Min used to be a person who paid great attention to the overall situation, but since he ordered the killing of Ruan Phuc Bao, he often issued some inexplicable instructions, which made it difficult for people around him to adapt.  Nguyen Phuc Chong Hui has a temperamental attitude and does not care much about these trivial matters, but Nguyen Phuc Chong Trin sees the problem and often makes some suggestions to oppose some of Nguyen Phuc Lok Min's orders that are too short-sighted.

    "Gong Zheng is right, I will leave the command to you this time. I am a little tired. You can go down and make arrangements." Of course Ruan Phuc Luo Min was not an unruly loner who has made it this far. He also knows that he has been acting out of control frequently recently.  His behavior is very problematic, but knowing it is one thing; being able to control the change is another thing.

    After leaving the carriage, brothers Gong Zheng and Gong Hui talked quietly. Gong Hui changed her arrogant and conceited look and asked her brother in a low voice, "Is the old man dying soon? How could he be so confused?"

    "Second brother, my grandfather is very old. He has had three surprises in the past six months and has rarely had a good rest. No wonder he says and does wrong. We just do our own thing well. The elders will have to deal with their elders' matters." Ruan Phuc Gongzheng is still saying  His expression was indifferent, as if there was nothing worthy of him changing his expression.
