Chapter 1002: Occupying Cloud Bamboo IV
Northern Jin Kingdom, at the foot of Lingshan Mountain.
The three guards led by Shang Ran, Yan Jie and Wei Long gathered here to prepare to send troops to Gu Zhu. The three met and formed the Eastern Expedition Army according to the requirements of the Ministry of War of the Kingdom, with Shang Ran as the Marshal of the Eastern Expedition Army, and Yan and Wei as the deputy commanders.
"The young master of Jinyuan is really brave. Only one or two people mobilized the Jin clan of Guzhu to occupy the city." Although he said this, there was a faint sense of excitement in Shang Ran's voice, "The order given to us by the Ministry of War is to advance Guzhu, one to relieve the pressure on him, and the other to take the opportunity to seize the land that split Guzhu Kingdom."
"That's great. I've been waiting for this day long." Wei Long said. When he was under Tong Yu's hands, he was a person who was unwilling to be mediocre.
Yan Jie was a little jealous. Why was that boy's all good things? It was not his turn to conquer cities and plunder land for the kingdom.
A moment later, another army horse galloped in the distance, with strange clothes.
"What are they?" Yan Jie said suspiciously.
"Face the color of the costumes, it looks like the newly established Jinyuan New Army and Princess Qinghan's private soldiers." Shang Ran said, "They were wearing alligator leather armor and green patterned battle suits, and there was a military rank seal on their shoulders, which was very easy to recognize."
As he was speaking, the army horses stopped neatly in front of them. One of the young men with the rank of major stepped forward and saluted them: "Your Highness, two generals, the first battalion of the new army in Jinyuan, and the captain of the brigade of Jinhei! I am ordered by Miss Qinghan to lead two thousand new army members to join this Eastern Expedition!"
"You are not Your Highness Qinghan's private soldiers, you should be by her side to protect each other. Why do you want to leave her and fight in Guzhu?" Shang Ran asked.
"Miss Qinghan said that we should hone our combat power in actual combat!" Jin Hei said, "Although we have few people, we have been trained for a long time at the Jinyuan Basilica training base. Many of the backbone are veterans of the Jinyuan Musketeers! We are well-equipped and are the standard equipment of the Jinyuan Musketeers! We will not drag your highness and the two generals back!"
"Since that's the case, then you can take them to follow." Shang Ran said, "But I must be commanded by my command in Guzhu's marching."
"Yes! The young lady has already told me when she was leaving and asked her to listen to you in everything!" Jin Hei said.
After the assembly was completed, we set out along the mountain road to the border between Northern Jin and Guzhu. After a while, the team arrived in front of Zhuling Pass in Guzhu Kingdom.
The army was approaching, which made the guards of Zhuling Pass very panicked, but they still stood on the pass wall with their teeth and shouted: "Listen to the army of the Northern Jin Kingdom, my Guzhu territory is ahead, and I am the Guzhu pass. If you don't want to cause the two countries to fight badly, please withdraw quickly!"
Shang Ran also sent people to shout: "Prince of Zhuling Pass, General Zhang Shaoran, General Jin Ling, the Northern Jin Kingdom's General of Protecting the Country, responded to your letter of help, lead troops to your country and establish Longling City as a base. Who knew that your eldest prince Tian Xingwen colluded with the Blood Spirit Evil Sect and Lingshan Magic Beast to attack Longling City, causing thousands of casualties to our army! Now that Tian Xingwen has ascended the throne, the Chinese king is worried about the safety of the General of Protecting the Country, so he ordered me to lead troops to respond!"
Zhang Shaoran, the general of Zhuling Pass, complained in his heart, and had to bite the bullet and make someone shout again: "I know you are His Highness Shang Ran. No matter what the reason is, if you lead a large army to face the border, you will provoke war between the two countries. Please think twice before acting!"
Shang Ran didn't want to talk nonsense with him. Since he had made up his mind to start a war, he didn't have to play with it, so he waved his hand and said, "Shoot the arrow!"
Suddenly, the army of the Northern Jin Kingdom was hit by arrows and hit Zhuling Pass like raindrops.
......
Yuedong Xiancheng. The City Lord’s Mansion.
After receiving the letter, Tian Xingwu hurriedly went to Tian Xingyue, the new city lord Kuai Zhengming, and Yang Yuan, the commander of the Yang family's Iron Training Army.
"Yunzhu Fairy City has fallen into the hands of Jinyuan?" Tian Xingyue and others were all shocked. Yunzhu Fairy City is really Tian Xingwen's base camp. He changed his ownership so easily? Moreover, I haven't heard of Jinyuan's military activities nearby. How did Jinling do it?
"The main force is not from Jinyuan, but from the Jin family." Tian Xingwu pointed to the four words "Jin family" in Xinbao and said, "It was the descendants of the Northern Jin royal family who lived and hid in the jurisdiction of Yunzhu Xiancheng."
"When it comes to them, I understand." Kuai Zhengming suddenly realized, "His Majesty and the Prince discussed with him, accepted their request for refuge in our country, and set them a piece of land in Yunzhu Fairy City for their living. However, even if Tian Xingwen had any mistakes, it would not be their turn to occupy the city of the kingdom!"
"The Jin family occupied our country's big city, which is not possible." Tian Xingyue frowned, "They are still the royal family of the neighboring king, and this move is like a civil strife. We cannot let it go."
"Second sister, they occupy Tian Xingwen, uh, the territory of his elder brother, and his fundamental land, which is a good thing for us. Most of the soldiers under the elder brother's family are still in Yunzhu Fairy City. They miss their families and must have no desire to fight." Tian Xingwu said.
Several people were discussing, and another letter came from the Yunzhu Immortal City, which was written by Jin Ling. In the letter, he briefly explained the reason for occupying Yunzhu Immortal City, and hoped to get the response and support of Yuedong Immortal City.
"I'll just say that with the courage of the Jin clan, those who are the survivors of the Jin clan will never dare to occupy a big city in our country. It turns out that the young master of Jinyuan is among them." Tian Xingyue said.
"If he took the lead, it would be even better." Tian Xingwu was happy, "In addition, Yunzhu, Yuedong, and Long Ling, we already have a land of three cities. Uncle Tian Dongkuang, of Yuexi Xiancheng, does not support the eldest brother, and is in a wait-and-see state. Seeing that we are on the rise, it is very likely to join us. In this way, we can take the land of four cities to deal with the eldest brother's Zhuxing and Ningqing two cities."
He was naturally excited. On that day, he secretly wrote a blood letter agreement to Jin Ling, using the land of Lingshan to exchange for the other party's promise to his throne. He thought that this agreement might be a mirror, but who would have thought that the young master of Jinyuan was so capable that it had been so great that it had only been a matter of time that the situation in the kingdom had changed so much.
"Those two Your Highnesses, how should we deal with this situation?" Yang Yuan asked.
Tian Xingyue thought for a moment, "I have an idea. First, I will set off immediately and go to Yuexi Xiancheng to lobby Uncle Wang and ask him to join us. Here, Xingwu will preside over it."
"Secondly, all the troops we control are ready for war, and deploy defenses in the area between us and Zhuxing City, attract the main force of the elder brother, relieve the pressure on Yunzhu Xiancheng, and give time to the young master of Jinyuan to consolidate the city defense."
"Both of these ideas are feasible." Kuai Zhengming agreed.
Everyone was continuing to discuss the details, and another army came hurriedly to report: "Report to the city lord, the three guards of the Northern Jin Kingdom, with a total of about 60,000 people, captured our Zhuling Pass and was advancing in the northeast!"
