The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 333: Battle of Chuyue 1
The seventh year of Emperor Yuan, June.
The earth has warmed up, the seedlings for the new year have been planted, and they are blooming and bearing fruit. Every country in the world has already reaped a good harvest.
So, the grain and grass were put in the warehouse, and the soldiers finished their rest in the past six months. After the soldiers were trained, they gradually became more like soldiers.
If the three conditions are met, then it's time for revenge and grievance.
First, the state of Chu took the lead in moving the giant in the south.
The Kingdom of Chu tightened the waistband of his trousers, gritted his teeth and gathered his army. A behemoth with a number of 50,000 has already appeared.
The flags cover the sky and the sun, the heads of people are dwarfed for tens of hundreds of miles without seeing the side, and the dust brought up by the army's actions flies up to more than ten feet in the sky, looking terrifying.
It's just that it looks very powerful, but in fact the army is extremely scattered, and it's just like a group of refugees on the way.
These troops have just been pulled out. Before, they were just ordinary people, maybe some people have fought, but they haven't been on the battlefield for several years, and they have long been unaware of marching and fighting.
Now being forced out, I really don't want to.
But having said that, these people are at least a little bit soldier-like. Although his actions were scattered, he still obeyed and feared his commander's orders.
And their opponent, the Yue Kingdom in the south, is really a rebellious army composed of refugees.
Although the Yue State has the name of the legal system, the ancient Yue State has perished for decades after all. After three or four generations, the local people's memory of Yue State has gradually sparsed.
Furthermore, the Yue country is newly built, the system is not yet perfect, and there are omissions everywhere, and there is a lack of officials.
So there was an awkward situation. There were officials in the localities but no officials did them, and there were soldiers but no generals in training. Many places were stagnated and even chaotic.
Initially, these are nothing. Any dynasty will encounter this situation. After operating for two or three years, slowly selecting some talents from the private sector, and adding some of your own training, it is easy to fill in these omissions.
However, Chu State will not give Yue State this time.
Yue Guo is still very weak. Although he can mobilize a large number of troops, many of them have no military foundation. They are just a group of mobs with weapons.
Although the number of these mobs is large, for the army, even an army with only a little military quality is very easy to defeat.
If you don't take advantage of the present opportunity to chase the Yue country fiercely, let him relax, train these refugees a little, and look like an army.
If you want to win the Yue Kingdom, I am afraid that you will have to work a hundredfold and thousandfold.
So, the 5o Wan Chu army marched southward and the world was trembling, and the more the country was terrified.
Today's Yue State, although it has experienced the country, has its own monarch, has its own army, has its own land, and has its own government.
But there is no denying that, no matter how much he has, he was just a few counties under Chu State half a year ago.
Whether it is the national army, ministers, or even the soldiers and civilians at the bottom of the Yue State court, they are just ordinary subjects under the rule of Chu State.
So in their hearts, they still have considerable awe and fear of Chu.
This is not only the common people at the bottom, but also the princes and nobles at the top, and even the current King of Yue.
So, in this unfavorable psychological condition, although the Yue State quickly organized an army of about 30,000 to fight, although it has the Yangtze River natural insurance as its backing, it is still unfavorable in general.
Although the Yue State can theoretically mobilize 50,000 troops, it is nothing more than theory.
Let’s not say that the more the country does not have so much money to support, it is said that the country does not have the ability to let so many people loyal to him, it is a problem.
After all, the Kingdom of Chu has been ruled for a long time. It is deeply rooted in the territory of the Kingdom of Yue. Many local people are eager to the Kingdom of Chu and are always looking forward to returning to the embrace of the Kingdom of Chu.
So what Yue Guo can really mobilize is the young men he has just brought in. They are truly trustworthy.
The war begins.
Although there is a natural danger on the Yangtze River, the navy of Vietnam is actually extremely simple and there are no large ships. They are all small boats that can only hold dozens of people, and there are only a dozen that can hold a hundred people.
The true navy forces of the Chu Kingdom were all gathered on the Huaihe River or Jiangling. They were used to guard against the Qin State or other countries.
As for the Yue Kingdom and other places in the rear, there are no regular navy forces at all. Some are just some patrol forces that patrol the Yangtze River to set up checkpoints and attack some water pirates by the way. They belong to the reserve.
This has also caused the embarrassing scene of Yue State. The Yangtze River Natural Hazard is there. This is the city wall given to Yue State from heaven, but Yue State cannot use it.
On the contrary, it was his enemy, Chu Kingdom, who had enough navy divisions. From the very beginning, he wiped out the two or three navy forces of the big cats and kittens in the country, and then completely dominated and controlled the entire Yangtze River~IndoMTL.com~ The Yangtze River became Chu's backyard in an instant, and Chu's army wandered freely there, but within a month, 20,000 Chu army had crossed the Yangtze River and invaded the land of Yue.
However, as for the current situation, Yue Guo had already anticipated it, but it was not too panic.
They gave up the natural dangers of the Yangtze River a long time ago, and instead chose those cities, mountains, and checkpoints within their borders, and these natural dangers that the Vietnamese army can use as their support, to resist the footsteps of the Chu State.
Everybody in the Yue country understands that if they really fight against Chu Jun, that is absolutely impossible. They have only one purpose, and that is procrastination.
Slacken the time, drag it to the rear of Chu State to cause an accident, or drag it to Chu State without any supplies, and can no longer fight.
For this, even if most of the entire country of Yue was destroyed in ruins, it would not hesitate.
Like the country of Qi at the beginning, it was surrounded and beaten by the Allied Forces of the Six Nations. Later, relying on the numerous cities in Chu State, defending one by one, it took half a year to survive the accident in the rear of the coalition forces, which saved the society.
Today's Yue country is planning to follow suit.
They are not the original Qi country, now they are just a group of barefoot men, planning to fight danger.
If you lose, you don't have to say much, but it's just a death.
But if they win, or withstand, then they make a lot of money.
Not only did they become masters, they became the nobles they had dreamed of in the past, and they could also enjoy their own fiefs and ancestral temples for their descendants.
With these, it doesn't matter even if the country of Vietnam becomes a wasteland. As long as the land is still there, no matter how many people die, they can slowly recover through the cultivation of time.
