General Lin entered Wanshou City, full of devastation and a withered scene.

Looking at the scars all over the city, I couldn't help but sigh, and at this moment, a small school rushed over:

"Report to the general, Guan Xiong's body was found, how to deal with it?"

"For the time being, let me think about it."

Lin Chongyang and Guan Xiong have confronted each other for more than ten years, and there have been countless confrontations, it stands to reason that there should be a deep hatred between them, but what is strange is that in the end, Lin Chongyang actually ordered Guan Xiong to be buried, but he did not erect a monument.

Erecting a monument and erecting a biography sounds like a big deal, but in the face of countless enemy generals, the nature of this matter has changed, and Lin Chongyang, as a pioneer officer, does not have this power.

If the emperor didn't go on a personal expedition, it would be fine, he would be outside, and there would be a lot of things to do first, and the emperor would not be mad. But now that the emperor is in Guozhou, if you don't ask the emperor, it will be too ignorant.

At this time, the emperor was planning to leave Guozhou and continue to march south to keep up with the pace of the vanguard troops, but for the time being, he was still held back by some things and had not yet started. From time to time, there were discussions between Tang Su and the generals, and they were in full swing to arrange the next plan to enter Sichuan.

Liang Jun is poor, so poor that it is impossible to take the waterway, so he can only take the dry road. However, the road to Shu is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, and the process of entering Sichuan must be extremely difficult, and the pre-war arrangement needs to be even more careful.

When Zhao Ce heard that Lin Chongyang buried Guan Xiong, he had a little doubt in his heart, but after thinking about it, he did not blame Lin Chongyang, but sent six words: Guan Xiong, a loyal general.

Seeing the emperor's reply, Lin Chongyang sighed with emotion and ordered someone to engrave these six words on the tombstone and set a grave for Guan Xiong.

His Majesty the Emperor understated six words, and it had an immeasurable and wonderful consequence, when Guan Xiong's tomb was arranged, there were many Han troops who fled to the mountains to surrender, they were all Guan Xiong's old department, they said, since the emperor of the Liang Dynasty can title our marshal as the title of loyal general, it can be seen that he is broad-minded, and we are willing to serve such a Ming monarch.

Guan Xiong was overjoyed, and the emperor was even more happy, it was simply joy from heaven.

Zhao Cexi said: "Pingbai has increased more than 20,000 regular troops, how can you not like it." The combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Sichuan Army is still very worthy of recognition. ”

——

Yue Ting was beaten by Tang Qi on the head, and he didn't dare to continue to approach Luoyang for a while, but he didn't plan to retreat, because the 400,000 troops behind him were coming in a steady stream.

Tang Qi ordered Tang Yuan to fight in a big roundabout, go around to the rear, and intercept the Jin Dynasty reinforcements.

Tang Yuan led 100,000 men and horses of his headquarters to intersperse back and forth in the vast area south of Gyeonggi Province and north of Jingbei Province, and in ten days, divided, surrounded and annihilated more than 100,000 enemy troops.

Yue Ting saw the move, and surrounded Tang Yuan, and the plain battle between 400,000 people and 100,000 people began.

Worried that Tang Yuan's soldiers were outnumbered, Tang Qi ordered the Tang clan's gate generals Wang Tianpeng, Zhen Xiuwei, Zhen Tailan, Shi Xiaotong, and Shi Xiaohe (female)

led 50,000 troops to help, wanting to open a hole for Tang Yuan and withdraw from the encirclement.

As a result, because these five people lacked combat experience, they were surrounded by Yue Ting's counter-attack, and the female general Shi Xiaohe fought too bravely and failed to see through the enemy's formation, but was captured.

When Yue Ting learned that the person he captured was a woman, not only did he not embarrass her, but said to Shi Xiaohe: "Women don't let them have eyebrows, which is worthy of admiration." But I'm curious, where are all the men of your Liang Dynasty? Why do you want women to lead the army? ”020

Shi Xiaohe said: "Who said that women are inferior to men. ”

Yue Ting laughed.

The Southern Jin Dynasty deserves to be a state of etiquette, even if it is a war, as a general, Yue Ting does not play the three indiscriminate methods, but just puts Shi Xiaohe in a cage, never abuses, let alone insults.

Who said that there were no talents in the Southern Jin Dynasty, the appearance of Yue Ting, greatly increased the confidence of the old emperor Sima Zhen, with the huge national strength of the Southern Jin Dynasty, he suddenly became full of pride, came to the north of Jinling City, and wanted to take the stage to cheer for the sailors who crossed the river.

The old emperor was nearly ninety years old, and he had to personally take the stage and beat the drums, but the soldiers were so moved that some people with shallow tear ducts even cried for it.

Eighteen cannons rang out, and the 180,000 sailors marched in unison and headed towards the north of the river.

Cao Sheng, the king of Huainan, personally supervised the army, Cao Dingguo and Cao Dingbang divided the troops to the left and right, Cao Leopard detoured, and the 110,000 tiger army fought with the Jin army on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

It is said that the generals are incompetent and exhaust the three armies.

On the other hand, the generals of the Tiger Ben Army, all of them are veterans who have been baptized by war for a long time, and Cao Sheng commands the troops calmly, like an old boy playing with naughty, and there is no pressure on the 110,000 Tiger Ben Army against the 180,000 Jin Army.

The Liang Dynasty Tiger Army has always been famous for its well-equipped troops, and many of the troops are veterans of the southern and northern wars.

On the other hand, the Southern Jin Dynasty did not fight a big war for 70 years, and there was serious corruption in the army, although it was well-equipped, and the soldiers fought hard, but unfortunately they had too little experience, and they were played around, and the communication was unfavorable, the tactics were messy, and they ran around like flies without a head, and finally they were wiped out by the Tiger Ben Army along the Yangtze River.

Eighty or ninety thousand died in battle, sixty or seventy thousand fled back to Jiangnan, and the rest did not know where to go, perhaps as deserters and hiding, or falling into the river and sinking at the bottom of the river.

The battle ended after only seven days.

The trace of pride that Sima Zhen had just ignited was immediately extinguished, and he returned to the court in despair, ordering the remaining troops to hold on to the coast and never attack. In addition, the speed of recruiting troops and buying horses, horses from all over the country were included, even mules and donkeys were not spared, veteran reserves, new soldiers, a steady stream of influxes into the capital, the old emperor can be regarded as a little relieved.

"Woohoo, in just a few dozen days, a million troops have been summoned, and I am very relieved. It seems that the people of my Jin Dynasty are really full of fighting spirit, in this case, who is willing to lead another army to cross the river and fight. ”

No one.

In fact, it's not that there is no one, some civil officials who are full of emotions and anger want to lead troops to fight, but they are scolded by His Majesty the Emperor, how can military affairs be child's play? Leading troops to fight a war requires brains, skills, and experience, not that you can lead troops if you have fire! Let you take a hundred people to fight, you can't even understand it, and you have to bring a million? Get lost! Don't bother me!

"That can't let General Yue Ting fight alone, in addition, I now think that his initial arrangement was correct, we must contain the Tiger Army, otherwise the Tiger Army will go north to encircle Yue Ting with the Flying Tiger Army, how can Yue Ting withstand it?" The first assistant minister, Iwamatsu Ryungdao.

"Through the first battle across the river, it can be regarded as understanding the combat strength of the Liang Dynasty's Tiger Army, no wonder over the years, they have been able to withstand the repeated attacks of the northern horseback people." The second auxiliary minister, Xin Wudao.

"Not only can they bear it, but they have also subdued a large amount of lost land." Sima Zhen thought for a while: "Now that there are no unscrupulous generals in the Jin Dynasty, what do you think should be?" ”

"In fact, it's not that there is no general, for example, the eighth prince Sima Wucixue has hidden many generals, they all surrendered from Jiangbei, and they have not been reused all along, now it may be time to let them out of the mountain." Rock Songling Road.

"Oh? And such a group of people? Sima Zhen was overjoyed.

"Yes, Your Majesty."
