Chapter 1584 Sweeping Liangshan (Part 2)


    Chapter 1582: Sweeping Liangshan (Part 2)


    Song Jiang still trusted Wu Yong''s military advisor''s ability very much. After all, if Wu Yong had not planned for him, Liangshan would have been occupied by Yuan Shao long ago even if it was not annexed by Huang Chao.


    So, seeing that Wu Yong didn''t say anything, Song Jiang didn''t care too much, just thinking that Wu Yong was a habitual cautious.


    "Military advisor, you are too worried. No matter whether Li Jing has not made any moves yet, what if he really comes? With the beacon tower and the three big villages here, can Li Jing still fly over?"


    Song Jiang said with a smile, looking disgusted.


    Since the establishment of the Northern Han Dynasty, although Song Jiang was named King of Liang, the position of King of Liang was not easy to sit. He needed to block Li Jing from Beihai to prevent the Beihai Qin army from intervening in the Hebei decisive battle.


    Song Jiang and Li Jing fought side by side, so they naturally knew how powerful Li Jing was, and they also knew that if the Qin army really attacked, the words of the Liangshan army alone would not be able to stop the Qin army.


    Therefore, Song Jiang was very cautious about Li Jing, and with the advice of military advisor Wu Yong, he took many preventive measures in advance.


    Song Jiang set up dozens of beacon towers at the junction of the North Sea and the main road. Once the Qin army launches troops to attack, the front-line beacon tower will immediately warn the Liangshan army to prevent the Liangshan army from being attacked by the Qin army.


    In addition, Song Jiang also set up three large camps on the necessary land. Although it is impossible to stop the Qin army, it will at least play a certain hindering role, so that Song Jiang will not even have a chance to react.


    In addition, there are 800 miles around Liangshan, thousands of harbors, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack.


    It is precisely with these three insurances that Song Jiang has the confidence to compete with Li Jing. If he really pushes him in a hurry, he will give up all the surrounding counties and bring all the troops back to Liangshan and defend them by the danger.


    Can Li Jing still break through Liangshan?


    Wu Yong nodded after hearing Song Jiang''s words. In his opinion, Liang State''s defense arrangements were not a problem. Even if Li Jing has great power, it would never be possible to break Liangshan and the three-level insurance within half a month, right?


    What Song Jiang and Wu Yong didn''t know was that the third layer of insurance in their eyes was a little useful. The one or two pieces that had been exposed had no effect at all in Li Jing.


    "Report... Report to the lord, urgent reports came from the border. The Qin army launched a surprise attack on our army, breaking two large villages overnight. The front-line defenders are striving to defend the third large village to death, but the Qin army''s offensive is too fierce and I''m afraid it won''t last long."


    "What?"


    After hearing this news, Song Jiang and Wu Yong were both struck by lightning. The information they just read said that the Qin army had no abnormal movements, but why did they almost hit the doorstep in the blink of an eye?


    Song Jiang''s face suddenly became extremely ugly. He then grabbed the collar of the messenger and asked sternly: "Where is the beacon tower? Why didn''t the wolf smoke ignite and issued a warning to make the border troops ready to welcome the enemy?"


    "The Qin army came too suddenly, and the front line was in chaos. The brothers who did not have the beacon tower fled back. I''m afraid they were all killed."


    Song Jiang’s biggest mistake was to set up the beacon tower in a noble manner. Although its main purpose was to shock, since Li Jing already knew the existence of the beacon tower, it was naturally impossible for the wolf smoke to really ignite.


    Li Jing sent Taishi Ci to lead 300 elite archers, as well as the two masters, Xuan Jian and Yan Ri of the Black Ice Platform, to attack and kill overnight, quietly delivering all the beacon towers of the Liangshan Army.


    Without the warning from the beacon tower, the Liangshan army stationed on the border became blind, and it was completely too late after the Qin army reached the doorstep.


    Even if the camp is located in a dangerous place, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but there are only a few hundred defenders who defend the camp after all.


    Li Jing didn''t need to send the strongest combat power Ran Min to take action. Only Taishi Ci, plus thousands of elite soldiers, broke through two large villages in Liangshan overnight.


    The reason why the third big village was not captured was because Li Jing did it on purpose. He was putting pressure on Song Jiang in this way and gave him time to gather the army to retreat.


    "How could this happen?" Song Jiang looked unbelievable. He was just saying that Li Jing could not fly over, but in a blink of an eye, the three insurances were about to be broken.


    This slap in the face is too fast.


    Since the Qin army has already come, it proves that the previous attitude of defending the country was just to confuse the Liangshan army, so Li Jing''s real purpose must be to destroy the Liangshan army.


    As soon as he thought of this, Song Jiang was extremely frightened. He knew that Li Jing had always made plans and then acted, and once he took action, it would mean he was fully sure.


    "What should I do? Military advisor, what should I do?" Song Jiang asked anxiously.


    Li Jing came too fast and too fiercely. Liangshan Army was not prepared at all, so he was almost broken.


    If this trend continues, Li Jing will break through the front line and head straight in tomorrow. He will appear in front of Song Jiang in three days, which makes Song Jiang almost unable to make any arrangements.


    "Lord, don''t panic first. Don''t let Li Jing get out of here before he can come over."


    Under Wu Yong''s comfort, Song Jiang quickly calmed down. After a long time of discussion, the two still didn''t expect anything to pay attention to. After all, time was too tight. Even if Song Jiang''s order could be conveyed, it would be too late to implement it.


    "It seems that we can only give up the major counties and concentrate our forces to defend Liangshanpo." Song Jiang said dejectedly. He was originally going to use this trick when he was forced to use it, but he never expected that Li Jing had just arrived and forced him to go back to Liangshan.


    Song Jiang really didn''t have the courage to fight Li Jing in a decisive battle. The Qin army''s combat effectiveness was really not very strong. Even if the Liangshan army had more troops, the possibility of defeat was not small.


    As for the city''s insistence, Song Jiang never thought about it.


    There is no big city in the Liang State except Liangshan City. Those small counties are not suitable to defend the Qin army even if they are defended. They will not be able to stop the Qin army and will be gradually eaten up by Li Jing.


    So, for now, giving up all territory and retreating to Liangshanpo is undoubtedly the best choice for the Liangshan Army.


    Give up all the territory except Liangshan City, it is undoubtedly a difficult decision for Song Jiang. After all, these are the wealth he has accumulated after finally accumulating. Even if Song Jiang gives up, he will feel heartbroken.


    Seeing Song Jiang look distressed, Wu Yong advised, "Lord, there is no need to be like this. When Wang Mang''s reinforcements arrive, Li Jing will definitely take the initiative to retreat, and the city that you give up will come back."


    When Song Jiang heard this, he was shocked and said excitedly: "Yes, why did I forget this?"


    The Qin army in the Beihai was only more than 40,000. Li Jing dispatched up to 30,000 troops this time. After Wang Mang''s reinforcements arrived, there were a total of 80,000 troops on the Northern Han side, which was enough to crush Li Jing.


    By then, if Li Jing did not want to be wiped out, he would have to retreat, and the abandoned cities would return to the hands of the Liangshan Army again.


    As soon as he thought of this, Song Jiang did not feel heartbroken, and immediately ordered: "Send the order, the whole army gathers, and return to Liangshanpo immediately."


    "No."


    As Li Jing expected, Song Jiang did not resist and directly assembled the army and prepared to retreat to Liangshan to defend the country.


    The defenders who were still defending the front line were naturally abandoned by Song Jiang.
