Chapter 107: The Enemy Army Appears
Daming Palace, the last imperial palace of the Han people, is still well preserved until later generations. It's just that things are people, and no matter how nostalgic you are, you can't compete with the reincarnation of fate.
The silent hall was empty, and there was a sound of footsteps.
"Holy Lord, this is Jinyiwei's report on the Han army."
Jin Yi Wei was canceled on the surface, but in fact it was still running, but many privileges were cut off.
Putting down the pen, Chongzhen only felt a burst of emptiness.
"Changping, are they okay?" The emperor who closed his eyes and recuperated waited for the reply of his henchman and eunuch.
The saint became more and more haggard, which made Wang Chengen feel distressed for a while: "Shengshang, Princess Changping and Princess Zhaoren are all fine, and Chen Xiong takes good care of them." However, King Annam was infatuated with the two daughters of the little princess of Goryeo, and he didn't seem to have that mind, so he always avoided seeing the princess. The Han army should have arrived at the mouth of the canal by now, and the armies of all roads south of the Yangtze River have been in place. ”
Chongzhen nodded lightly, his face was sad and joyless. The complete fall of Guanzhong made him more and more powerless, and now the thieves are already planning to become the emperor, which makes him even more powerless and cold.
"Cheng'en! Do you think we can defeat the Han army? Now Chongzhen has lost confidence, not always in the past ten years, but often the result always disappoints him!
Wang Chengen nodded firmly: "The Holy Imperial Court has nearly a million troops surrounded and suppressed by water, and the Han army will definitely not be able to take it." He didn't dare to say anything more, what if he defeated the Han army, if he couldn't catch the king of Annan, it wouldn't take a year for the Han army to rise again! Which of these anti-thieves is easy to greet, none of them are slippery.
"Hmmm! The secret order should be Tianfu Ma Shiying, and the princess must be protected! "The big war is together, life and death are unpredictable, and the emperor has prepared for the worst! For the sake of the country, everything can be paid.
After Li Zicheng took Shaanxi, the prestige of the army had reached its peak. Now he is reorganizing his army and building the country, waiting for the next year to directly take the Beijing division.
Zhang Xianzhong fought from Shaanxi to Jiangsu, and this year he went from Sichuan to Hubei, and now the Great Western Army has occupied the entire territory of Hunan and some areas in the northern part of Liangguang. But there were not many displaced people in Hunan to replenish his troops, and the Ming army in Jiangxi also threatened him. Hearing that the Han army, which had an amazing record, was going to return to Lingnan, Zhang Xianzhong also firmly chose to return to Sichuan. The Great Western Army returned to Sichuan two months earlier than in history, and they were also forced to be helpless: there was a Dashun Army in the north, but the Jiangnan Army was never able to gain an advantage, and Lingnan was too remote and xenophobic to develop for them.
The Ming army now can't take care of the Great Western Army, and is making every effort to encircle and suppress the Han army. After all, the Great Western Army was often defeated by them, but the Han Army had never been defeated since its birth.
Yangzhou, Jiangbei ~
After more than a day of artillery fighting, there was not much artillery left in Yangzhou City. The Han army also began to engage in firearms and bow battles with the Ming army, although the Ming army was condescending, but it could not be used in the city. And the Han army, which suppressed the Ming army at the head of the city with a numerical advantage, was difficult to fight back. If there are 2,000 archers in the city, there will be 10,000 archers in the city. Under this kind of firepower, the Ming army did not please him. Coupled with the equipment collected and extorted along the way, the protection of the Han army is very complete.
"Supervisor, there are tens of thousands of wounded soldiers in our army, and the medicinal materials in the city are in urgent need." The artillery battle, the gun battle, the bow and arrow battle all fell behind, and Gao Jie was even less confident in defending the city.
Shi Kefa was still calm: "General Gao, don't worry, the Han army's sailors have arrived, and the Han army is about to leave!" ”
"And Zuo Mengeng has begun to arrive, I thought I ordered the armies in Jiangbei to dispatch, presumably the Han army will cross the river after receiving the news." Shi Kefa was very dissatisfied with the early action of the Zuo army, but in this way, it is estimated that the Han army should also cross the river in a hurry. The Han army would not have thought that there were already more than 30,000 sailors already in ambush up and down the river.
"That's good, first assemble the army and force the Han army to leave." Gao Jie doesn't care whether he can destroy the Han army now, as long as the Han army doesn't attack him.
As soon as the Zuojia army moved, the Han army also discovered them, and as soon as 100,000 people were dispatched, they could not hide.
Han army camp.
Chen Xiongyi has a plan, but he also wants to hear the opinions of the audience: "Everyone, Zuo's army will arrive in Yangzhou in two days, should we cross the river or?" ”
"Lord, let me ride the Fifth Army to meet the Zuojia Army." Zhang Shou immediately replied, his cavalry had not worked for a long time.
"Lord, why is there less cavalry six armies." Wu Li believed that their 10,000 cavalry was enough to fight the Zuojia army.
All the army commanders agreed to go to war, but the three elders of the headquarters had different opinions.
"Lord, let's return south quickly. There were also 100,000 Ming troops in Tianchang, plus more than 100,000 horses in Yangzhou. The army of more than 300,000 in Jiangbei is not easy to deal with. Zhao Lao also saw Shi Kefa's intention, which was to force the Han army away.
Lin Guozhong nodded and said: "The lord said that if we want to retain the strength of the Ming army to resist the Tartars, we should not fight against it. ”
As soon as Lin Guozhong's words came out, the army commanders also had nothing to say! After all, they couldn't stay to fend off the Tartars.
Seeing that everyone stopped speaking, Chen Xiong began to order: "Wu Li and Zhang Shouyi will follow me to eliminate the Zuo family army, and Zuo Mengeng's traitor statue must not be kept." ”
"It's the lord."
Everyone couldn't help laughing, how to see this traitor of Zuo Mengeng.
"Tianchang, those guards don't need to pay attention, this group of wastes may not dare to come. You continue to train in the siege, and we will be back soon. ”
"It's the lord." Chen Chang, Lin Hu, and Zuo Zongwei immediately received the order, and it was difficult to meet them if they could train troops in such an important town.
As soon as they said they were leaving, the cavalry had lunch in advance and set off with a day's dry food.
Chen Xiong was not in a hurry to do this, and let the cavalry take the first step, after all, his heavy cavalry could kill all the way to Liuhe without resting.
This time, Princess Changping finally waited for Chen Xiong.
"Xiao Zhaoren, have you eaten?" Chen Xiong opened his hand, and Xiao Zhaoren immediately jumped into his uncle's arms with a smile.
Lin Fei frowned, this guy doesn't know how to pay attention to the difference between men and women! Although the two princesses were given to him!
"Uncle and sister won't give me food." Xiao Zhaoren opened his mouth wide.
Xiao Aimin smiled: "Little Zhaoren's sister is here to feed you." ”
After Chen Xiong ate for a while, Changping immediately put down his chopsticks. She was given to King Annam, and as long as he didn't die, he might be his person in the future. Although King Annan ignored her, she believed that one day King Annan would accept her, even if it was not too late in a few years.
"Say? Changping! Changping's gaze made the uncle a little excited, but confused! He really didn't want to hurt his dearest Aimin Xinna.
Changping smiled and nodded: "If King Annan and Princess Don't accept Changping, Changping won't be extravagant." But! ”
Changping stood up and said with a cheeky face: "Can King Annan give some of the divine seeds to the court to save the people." ”
Princess Changping raised her arms and eyebrows, and then bowed her head deeply.
Lin Fei and Xinna were both surprised that the dignified Princess Ming would give such a gift.
Chen Xiong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Changping! The divine seed can not be found, and as soon as the divine seed comes out, it needs water and soil, and it cannot be transported to the capital at all. ”
Knowing that there was no result, Changping couldn't help but ask again: "Is there no way for King Annan?" ”
Chen Xiong nodded: "I really can't help it." But in fact, there is a strange species in Fujian in the Ming Dynasty, and the yield per mu is more than several times that of rice. However, the Ming gentry did not promote it, so does the princess know why? ”
How could it be~ All the women were shocked, and they were all very curious to look at Chen Xiong! Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "The Plants and Trees of the Late Ming Dynasty" for free reading for the first time.
