After Gao Xiang found that he could not raid Hanshui County, he could only temporarily stop at the border. basket for carrying soil

He dared not retreat.

He only worries that once he retreats, the Gan army will attack.

It was okay before he showed up. According to the information collected by the domestic spies, Qianguo will not send troops abroad for the time being, but now?

Hard to say!

Dagan has never been a country that endures being beaten to the door.

Just have fun if I didn't attack you, and dare to attack me?

Court death! basket for carrying soil

Before Gao Xiang came to Huangshi County, he had a serious understanding of Yang Yuan and the Qianguo he built.

This is a monarch and a country that must take revenge.

Yang Yuan was able to launch a 10,000-strong raid on the barbarians for the sake of dozens of people.

It can also carry out a surprise attack on the Qi country for the Qi army that has not yet reached the border!

Totally unreasonable!

He was just now facing Gan Jun across the Han River less than 30 meters wide, how dare he leave?

I'm afraid that if he didn't lead the troops to leave, the army on the back would invade Huangshi County. basket for carrying soil

Gao Xiang didn't believe that Huangshi County's soldiers and horses could stop Qian Guo's attack. If Qian Guo really wanted to capture Huangshi County, even the 30,000 soldiers and horses he commanded would not be able to stop it.

"I can only hope that Qianguo has not changed their plan and will not go south in a big way!"

Gao Xiang knew very well that Shun Country was not ready for a full-scale war, and this tentative attack was also a helpless move by Shun Country.

After more than a year of silent cultivation, Shunguo regained some vitality. It would be better for Shunguo if he could recover and develop for a longer period of time!

However, domestic and international conditions do not allow Shunguo to continue to develop silently.

In China, the new King Shun has not long since succeeded to the throne and has gradually taken power into his hands. Now he is only one victory away from completely controlling all power.

A centralized monarch is a good thing for the precarious Shun country, so many people in Shun country know that this is not the best time to counterattack the Qian country, and they still have to support this decision. basket for carrying soil

Persecution from the external environment mainly comes from dry countries.

Only Qianguo can bring such a sense of crisis to Shunguo!

If there is no sense of crisis, the country will be wiped out!

In the past one or two years, Qian State attacked everywhere, defeated the mighty barbarians, and defeated Qi State, which is rich and powerful. dry country.

Through the information sent back by the spies hidden in the Qian Kingdom, the monarch and ministers of the Shun Kingdom knew how fast a Qian Kingdom that was dedicated to development became stronger!

It is definitely not something that Shun Guo can catch up with!

Compared with the development of Qianguo, the disadvantage of Shunguo will become bigger and bigger! basket for carrying soil

Therefore, Shunguo cannot allow Qianguo to develop with peace of mind, and must interrupt the development of Qianguo, even if the price is to consume the newly recovered strength.

Among the relatively complicated reasons, Shunguo sent troops!

He bumped his head against the iron wall of the Qianjun!

After Yang Yuan received the information that Shunguo might send troops, he immediately dispatched a batch of food, grass and ordnance to the southern frontier army and the Suzaku Legion.

The soldiers and horses went ahead without moving food and grass, and Yang Yuan didn't plan to go south this year to destroy the Qian Kingdom.

With Qianguo's preparations, even if Shunguo can be destroyed, there will be heavy casualties and exhaustion!

It is even possible to make wedding dresses for others, which is cheaper for Qi or Chu. basket for carrying soil

What Qianguo wants is a piece of land that can quickly integrate into itself, not a dilapidated piece of land or a burden that cannot be integrated into itself!

Especially not cheaper than other countries.

Otherwise, Yang Yuan will be so angry that he can't eat!

What Gao Xiang most hoped to see happened.

Qianguo has no plans to expand the war. He led 30,000 soldiers and horses to stop Qianguo's attack, right?

Gao Xiang can't guarantee that anything can happen when fighting the army.

The army of Hanshui County is also only 30,000, but he is not confident that he can defeat the 30,000 army on the opposite side. basket for carrying soil

Ganjun is best at fighting more with less.

The leader of the rebel army, King Qian, is a master of the art of fighting more with less!

You can't take it lightly just because the army has no advantage in strength. Countless Shunguo soldiers have given warnings with their lives.

Gao Xiang didn't dare to underestimate the Qianjun, even though they didn't seem to want to cross the Han River.

He camped on a high ground fifteen miles away from the Han River. As long as he set up a small camp on the high ground, he could monitor the situation by the Han River and at the same time avoid being attacked by the Gan army.

After setting up the camp, Gao Xiang did not relax, but immediately wrote to King Shun, indicating that the raid plan had failed.

It is recommended that the king strictly investigate the domestic spies! basket for carrying soil

At the same time, Gao Xiang asked in the memorial what to do next, retreat or storm Hanshui County?

He also requested that the county soldiers around Huangshi County be mobilized to strengthen the defense of Huangshi County.

When the memorial was sent back, Gao Xiang also wrote a letter to the prefects of Huangshi County and the two surrounding counties. There was no begging or threat in the letter. He just told them the situation of the Hanshui County army.

"The three sheriffs will understand what I mean!"

Gao Xiang was not afraid that the three sheriffs would not cooperate with his actions.

The three county guards understood the threat of the army better than he did.

It is not worthy to act with him at this time, and the three counties are in danger of being breached by the dry army. basket for carrying soil

Only when Gao Xiang attracts the attention of the army, can the three counties remain stable for the time being.

Moreover, Gao Xiang is a general. If there is a mistake in the military, he is the most suitable person to take the blame.

The three county guards wished that Gao Xiang would hand over all the defensive work to Gao Xiang!

The Sheriff of Huangshi County reacted the fastest, because he was the first to receive Gao Xiang's letter because he was the closest.

After reading the letter, he didn't hesitate at all~ lightnovelpub.net~ He immediately called the county lieutenant and asked him to hand over all the county soldiers to Gao Xiang's command.

The county lieutenant was unwilling to hand over all the county soldiers to Gao Xiang.

Isn't this giving your life to General Gao? basket for carrying soil

Although the county lieutenant thought that his commanding ability was not as good as Gao Xiang's, he was still unwilling to hand over all the soldiers and horses in his hands to him.

"My lord, the county soldiers are the last barrier for my Huangshi County.

Hand over all the county soldiers to General Gao. If he wants to lead the army to leave Huangshi County, we will be in danger! "

This is not the county lieutenant's alarmist talk, fabricated out of thin air.

This happened more than once.

It happened several times two years ago, otherwise Shun Country wouldn't have lost the Sixteen Northern Counties so quickly!

The sheriff of Huangshi County was right after thinking about it. Gao Xiang must support him, but he can't hand over all the county soldiers to him. basket for carrying soil

He is not from Huangshi County, if the Gan people call and he withdraws, what will happen to Huangshi County?

Even if the Gan army didn't come, and Gao Xiang took soldiers and horses into the Qian country, Huangshi County would be very dangerous without the county soldiers.

The secret agents and traitors of the Qian Kingdom have long been lurking in various parts of Huangshi County. Without the deterrence of the county soldiers, if they make a fuss, there is nothing the county guard can do!

In the end, the governor of Huangshi supported Gao Xiang with 4,000 soldiers, which was already half of the number of soldiers in Huangshi County.

The remaining 4,000 county soldiers were firmly held in Huangshi City by him.

The main city of a county cannot be guarded by soldiers and horses.

What if the spies of Qianguo incite the mob in the county to attack the county town? basket for carrying soil

Even if you don't attack the county, it is very dangerous to attack other counties!

There are thousands of county soldiers guarding the county town. If there is a mob riot, the county guard will be able to deal with it!

Huangshi County is adjacent to Hanshui County, and the development and policies of Qian State have also spread to Huangshi County. Many people in the county hope that Qian State can occupy Huangshi County.

A group of rioters!
