The Invincible Sixth Prince
Chapter 697 Inspecting the Camp
Fuzhou.
Sifang County.
This is the forefront of Fuzhou close to Shuobei.
Yunzheng and Jiayao were going to get married in Fuzhou, so it was definitely too late to build a temporary palace, so they could only buy the palace from the dignitaries of Sifang County.
Originally, this matter needed to be checked by the prince, Yun Li.
But Yun Li didn't take it seriously and just let the people in the Ministry of Rites make their own decisions.
He wished he could tear Yun Zheng into pieces and help Yun Zheng choose a mansion?
If he helps Yunzheng pick a coffin, he will definitely be active!
After leaving these messy things to the officials below, Yunli led people directly to the Sifang County camp.
Since Zhao Ji led his army to the northwest, there were only 30,000 troops in the entire Fuzhou.
Almost all of these 30,000 troops were concentrated in Sifang County.
Yun Li was not afraid of anyone saying that he had contacted the generals without permission.
Inspecting the camp in Sifang County was also a task given to him by Emperor Wen before going to Shuobei.
When Yun Li led his people to the camp, Zhou Daogong, who had been notified in advance, was already waiting at the gate of the camp with his generals.
"The last general, Zhou Daogong, comes to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Seeing Yun Li and his party, Zhou Daogong quickly led others to salute Yun Li.
Yun Li jumped off his horse and said with a smile: "Generals, there is no need to be polite!"
Zhou Daogong straightened up and said with a humble face: "The general has prepared a banquet in the camp to greet His Highness and all your lords. I would also like to invite Your Highness and your lords to move to the camp."
"This is not urgent!"
Yun Li waved his hand and said seriously: "I am here to inspect the defense of the camp on the order of my father. I would like to ask General Zhou to take Gu around the camp first."
"Yes!"
Zhou Daogong did not dare to neglect and immediately accepted the order.
Yun Li mounted his horse again and started wandering around the camp under the leadership of Zhou Daogong.
Not all of Sifang County's 30,000 soldiers and horses are in this camp.
There are only 20,000 horses here, and another 10,000 horses are stationed about fifteen miles away.
Yun Li just walked around the camp and couldn't help but frown.
The equipment of the soldiers in the camp was really not that good. For Yunli, who was used to seeing the well-equipped Sixth Guards of the Imperial City, the equipment of the soldiers in the camp was almost like rags.
Some soldiers don't even have leather armor!
As for the cavalry, Yun Li asked. There were only 700 cavalry in the entire forward defense line!
Moreover, it’s all one person and one horse!
Looking at the soldiers in front of him, Yun Li couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Just like this, can it stop the Beifu Army?
That bitch Lao Liu can kill through the front line of defense without any effort, right?
The more Yun Li watched, the more angry he became. He asked Zhou Daogong with a black face: "Why are there so many soldiers who don't even have leather armor?"
Zhou Daogong quickly explained: "Your Highness, the army in Fuzhou was sent to support Shuobei at the beginning of the year..."
Fuzhou had an army of 130,000 men earlier.
Some of the 130,000 troops were drawn from elsewhere, and some were recruited this year.
The army drawn from elsewhere was fully armored.
But none of those recruited this year have armor.
Although the imperial court has supplied some armor from behind, not everyone can get it.
Later, Zhao Ji led an army of 100,000 to the northwest to help, taking away all the troops with complete armor.
As for the soldiers without armor, they all stayed here in Sifang County.
Therefore, Yun Li saw slightly more soldiers without armor.
After explaining, Zhou Daogong looked at Yun Li with an aggrieved face, "The general has written to the court many times, requesting the court to replenish armor. However, before the Moxi tribes invaded, the court's armor must give priority to replenishing the northwest and southwest armies. , it has been several months, and the imperial court has not even replenished a pair of armor..."
Listening to Zhou Daogong complaining here, Yun Li had already guessed what the bastard was going to say next.
Damn it, he still wants to ask himself for armor, right?
"Okay, okay!"
Yun Li interrupted Zhou Daogong, "How many armors are missing here?"
"Thirteen thousand sets."
Zhou Daogong answered immediately.
"Such a shortage?"
Yun Li's face twitched slightly, "From what you're saying, the 10,000 people stationed fifteen miles away basically don't have armor, right?"
"Yes!"
Zhou Daogong nodded, "Those ten thousand people are all newly recruited soldiers, and they are currently being trained over there..."
Training?
Yun Li's face darkened and he almost spit out fragrance.
You don’t even have any armor, what the hell is this called training?
This is called a waste of food and military pay!
If Lao Liu comes over, can he count on these people?
I'm afraid these soldiers and horses were all trained to help Lao Liu, right?
Damn grandma!
It’s better not to have this line of defense!
In this way, the court can also save a lot of expenses!
Yun Li was furious, but he couldn't get angry at Zhou Daogong.
This matter cannot be blamed on Zhou Daogong!
The imperial court has no armor to replenish it, who is to blame?
Yun Li suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice: "The tribes in Moxi have withdrawn their troops. Guhui will report to Emperor Ming to try to replenish the armor of the soldiers in the camp! However, this may still take some time..."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Zhou Daogong quickly thanked him, but felt depressed in his heart.
The imperial court gave him the first line of defense in Fuzhou, but he could not even replenish the armor.
Just like this, do you still expect them to block the front of the Beifu Army?
Given the current situation, if the Beifu Army really goes south, it is estimated that half of the soldiers will become deserters.
Or, surrender directly!
They have no danger to defend and their armor is incomplete. How can they fight?
Yun Li originally wanted to hang around for a while, but when he saw the situation in the camp, he lost interest and directly called Zhou Daogong to go to the Chinese army's tent.
"If the missing armor in your camp is replenished and the Beifu army moves south, how long can your army hold on?"
On the way, Yun Li couldn't help but ask Zhou Daogong.
He didn't even bother to ask Zhou Daogong if he could hold on.
If these 30,000 people can hold Fuzhou, Zhou Daogong can be called the best general in the world!
Zhou Daogong was a little confused by Yun Li's question.
After a brief moment of confusion, Zhou Daogong replied cautiously: "If we have the same military strength, as long as we have enough food and grass, we will be confident that we can hold on for a month..."
"A month?"
Yun Li frowned, "The imperial court has spent so much money on you, and you can only stay there for a month?"
Zhou Daogong's face twitched slightly, and he lowered his head in shame: "The general is incompetent..."
One month is too little for him?
In just this month, he felt like he was bragging!
If the Beifu Army really sends 30,000 troops south, thank God if they can hold on for half a month!
At this point, they are still defending the city.
If they go out of the city to fight, they will definitely be defeated in one blow!
He didn't even look at who the coach of the Beifu Army was!
That was the King of Jingbei who had never been defeated!
Just by standing outside the city, Yun Zheng could put tremendous pressure on the defenders in the city.
If Yunzheng tried to persuade them to surrender, he estimated that many people would surrender without a fight.
Otherwise, wait for Yun Zheng to mobilize his army and wipe them all out?
Now Zhou Daogong just wants to be transferred elsewhere.
Whoever wants to defend this front line of defense will defend it!
Seeing Zhou Daogong's cowardly appearance, Yun Li felt even more angry.
Yun Li wanted to explode several times, but finally held back.
"Forget it, let's eat first!"
Yun Li suppressed the urge to scold Zhou Daogong, and walked to the main seat with a depressed heart to sit down...
