Heaven's Change of Fate

Chapter 200 Meng Yuan's Reaction

"Meng Yuan's military is only relaxed in the south. After all, the south is full of water networks, and the advantages of the Mongolian cavalry cannot be deployed. The Mongolian Yuan's control over the north is still very strong. Fan Youshi should not be careless." Yang Xin shook his head and said.

Yang Xin can despise the enemy strategically, but he will pay attention to the enemy tactically.Yang Xin didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. In the next period of time, Yang Xin didn't dare to blink his eyes, let alone sleep, either in the name of Dalu Huachi to let the officials do what they should do, or Take Zhang Songxi and others to patrol around.

Fortunately, Yang Xin, the Six Heroes of Wudang, and Fan Yao are all accomplished masters, and they can survive without sleep for two or three days.And the officials of Xiangyang City also knew Daluhuachi's virtue, thought that Daluhuachi was drinking too much again, and didn't care, so why should he continue doing it, just like that, two days passed.

On the third night, when Yang Xin's large army began to slowly march into Xiangyang City, Yang Xin and others breathed a sigh of relief. Pulling in still didn't cause much fluctuation.

The army entered the city, and after the [-] troops completely entered Xiangyang City, Yang Xin and the others had a good night's sleep.

Early the next morning, Yang Xin woke up and immediately transferred the original defenders and officials of Xiangyang City into the inner city in batches in the name of Dalu Huachi. When these defenders and officials entered the inner city, Yang Xin directly Announced a lockdown.

Facing the soldiers holding muskets that appeared on the city wall, the unwilling Mongolian Yuan soldiers launched a charge, and then they were beaten into an extremely embarrassing situation. Only then did the Meng Yuan soldiers realize that Xiangyang City had changed hands, and they also realized the strength of both sides. With the huge gap, our side has become a turtle in the urn, and there is no other way to survive except surrender.

What followed was a long reorganization period. The soldiers under Yang Xin still followed the old rules, first picking out the Mongolian Yuan people and Semu people in the surrendered army, and then letting the Han people and Nan people accept the votes.In order to survive, the Han people and the southerners had no choice but to accept the votes and slash the swords in their hands at their former bosses. This also brought Yang Xin's army strength to 8.

8 people were far from what Yang Xin wanted, but Yang Xin didn't rush to recruit troops. Instead, after taking control of the entire city of Xiangyang, he began to implement military control, and the whole of Xiangyang instantly became a huge military camp.

After completely controlling everything in Xiangyang City, Yang Xin began to pay high military salaries and started conscription.Of course, these newly recruited soldiers also had to receive certificates of honor, and the certificates of honor were the Mengyuan people, Semu people and their families in Xiangyang City.

So under Yang Xin's half coercion and half coercion, the strength of Yang Xin's men increased to 15, and all of them were young and strong. It can be said that Yang Xin wiped out all the young and strong in Xiangyang City.Although Xiangyang City was occupied and the troops were supplemented, Yang Xin did not immediately raise the flag of rebellion, but started large-scale military training.

There are two large granaries, Dong'ao Granary and Xi'ao Granary in Xiangyang City. There are countless grains and grass in the granary, which is enough for 15 troops to feed for five or six years. With these two granaries, even if Xiangyang City was besieged like at the end of the Song Dynasty, Yang Xin could support it for two or three years.

While Yang Xin began to train his troops, he still sent people around to collect food, grass and war preparations. After all, no one would think that there was not enough food and grass, and there was food in hand, so he didn't panic in his heart.

Yang Xin trained his troops calmly and enthusiastically. As time went by, Wang Baobao dispatched troops to Wudang, and the news that Xiangyang changed hands finally spread.

For a moment, the land of China was shaken.

The son of King Ruyang, Wang Baobao, died in Wudang, and his daughter was captured and trapped in Xiangyang, and she cried and passed out in the palace of Ruyang Prince. In order to avenge the loss of his son and the hatred of his daughter, King Ruyang went to Dadu to meet him personally. Yuan Huizong won the power of Marshal of the Army and Horses, and then mobilized 25 Mongolian Yuan Jingqi plus 20 servants from the north, and 20 troops from the Bashu area, and then 30 troops from the Jianghuai area, and finally , All [-] troops from the south formed an army of one million, and besieged Xiangyang on all sides.

Ruyang Wang Chahan Timur is worthy of being the only general who can take action at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. He can change the situation as soon as he makes a move, and he makes a move like a goshawk and a rabbit. After the war, the first large-scale mobilization.

Such a large-scale troop mobilization by Meng Yuan obviously couldn't be hidden from Yang Xin and others, especially since the business of the three major bodyguards spread all over the entire Shenzhou. When Meng Yuan first started to mobilize troops, the news spread to Xiangyang.

After getting the news of Meng Yuan's siege of Xiangyang by millions of troops, the expressions of the Wudang Six Heroes in Xiangyang City instantly changed, and they all looked at Yang Xin in disbelief.

An army of one million is not one hundred people. Once there are more than ten thousand people, there is no limit.

"What are you panicking?" Yang Xin shouted coldly.

"Millions of troops are assembled, which is easier said than done! The Mongolian Yuan issued an order, and it took a few months to convey it to various places; the local state government received the order to gather troops, recruit Dingkou, and raise rations. It will take another few months. The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and grass go first. Without food and grass, the army will collapse on its own and fight a fart battle; Ten miles will take several months."

"If we really have to wait until Meng Yuan gathers an army of millions, it will be at least a year later. One year, no, it will not take a year. It only takes three to half a year. It is enough for us to win the Jianghuai area. As long as Taking Jianghuai, we not only have strategic depth, but also material reserves. More importantly, we have copper. As long as the copper mines are mined, we can upgrade our current weapons and equipment. An army of 100 million, even 200 million, can only resent it, and we happened to take this opportunity to severely damage Meng Yuan in the first battle and lay a solid foundation for seizing the world." Yang Xin said loudly.

What Yang Xin said is true. A million-strong army sounds bluffing. It is impossible to gather it in less than a year. In modern times, China has gathered millions of troops and relied on various advanced means of transportation. It will take nearly a month, let alone this era.

Especially in the south, the water network is everywhere, and the movement is extremely slow. Even if they are exhausted, they can't even try to reach Xiangyang quickly.

Hearing Yang Xin's words, everyone's nervousness began to ease. In the following time, Yang Xin continued to train his troops unshakably, and the Six Heroes of Wudang also actively participated in it. Although everyone's mood eased, But unconsciously, the whole of Xiangyang began to be shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

Three months later, the military training came to an end, and Yang Xin raised [-] elite soldiers and [-] auxiliary soldiers, making a total of [-] troops, and began to conquer Jianghuai.
