Chapter 443 Enter the city

The capture of Chizhou City and Nanling City, and the Nanya Forbidden Army fled from Tongling, Fanchang and other cities, which means that the three-way soldiers and horses belonging to Yueyang have completely opened up the passage of the division in Fanchang.

Fanchang's old name is Chungu County, it is the first city that Emperor Tianyou led the Huainan army to cross the river to attack the Shengzhou Festival to take the Dufu, which belonged to the Chizhou Mansion in the past, and then changed to Jingzhao Mansion, which is the west gate of Jinling.

Fanchang is bordered by Jiuhua Mountain and Yishan Mountains in the south, and the Jianghuai Plain is seen across the Yangtze River in the north, and the small and medium-sized mountains such as Changhui Mountain, Yinyu Mountain, and Temple Mountain stretch vertically and horizontally, and from Fanchang to the east, it is the open terrain west of Jinling City composed of low hills, river valley plains, and Jiangzhou Plain.

The first batch of soldiers and horses of the army along the Yangtze River and the Jiangxi army rushed to the east to occupy Fanchang City, where only more than 1,000 county residents remained.

Although the attack on the two cities of Chizhou and Nanling resulted in heavy casualties, Yueyang had completely controlled the prefectures and counties of Jiangxi and Hudong.

In addition to the distance between the southern Zhejiang region, the Jiangnan East Road has not yet sent people to contact and surrender at this time, but with the contraction of the entire line of the Nanya Forbidden Army to the inner line of Jinling, the six states along the Taihu Lake, plus the cities of Liyang, Pingling, Nanling, Dangtu, Fanchang and other cities in the south and southwest of Jinling, are also under the direct control of Yueyang soldiers and horses at this time.

In addition to the southeast flank advancing to the Lishui and Maoshan lines, the scouts and horses in the south and southwest have already set up sentry posts along the south bank of the Shuiyang River, compressing the activity space of the Nanya Forbidden Army to less than fifty or sixty miles out of Jinling City.

At this time, it can be said that the general trend has been achieved.

Even if there were relatively large losses in the troops during the attack on Chizhou and Nanling, the wounded soldiers could be evacuated to the rear city in time to recuperate in a short period of time, and they also continued to recruit new generals from the back city to replenish them, and hundreds of thousands of stone of grain and straw in Xiuhanghuqu and other prefectures were being requisitioned tens of thousands of people, chariots and horses, and they were also continuously transported into Langxi, Nanling and other cities through the northern foot of Fuyu Mountain.

Due to the strong combat power of the Lou Boat Army, it has not yet been defeated, for the sake of safety, the warships of the Wuya Army's naval division are mainly cowering in the Chizhou area, and they do not dare to rush downstream too rashly.

The river road from Chizhou to Fanchang is still under the threat of the warships of the Louchuan Army and the Naval Division, so a team of men and horses and a cart of materials mainly pass through the post road along the river at the northern foot of Jiuhua Mountain, starting from the direction of Jiangzhou, passing through Chizhou and Tongling, and entering Fanchang.

Fanchang City, which is sparsely populated, seems to have suddenly become lively overnight, and people are boiling everywhere.

In any case, even if Yang Yuanpu did not directly intervene in the specific arrangements for the siege of Jinling, it was impossible for him to sit in Yueyang and wait for the recovery of Jinling at this time.

Han Qian, Li Pu, Zhang Ping, Gu Zhilong, his grandfather Han Wenhuan, his second uncle Han Daochang, Fu Mo, Wei Zhen, Wu Zun, Chen Fan, Zhou Yuanhe, Li Xiu, Wen Rui and others rushed to Fanchang City, and met Li Changfeng, Li Zhihe, Zhou Yi, Zhou Yuan, Jiang Shu, Zheng Chang, Yang Fan, Gao Long and others, who had already settled in Fanchang, and went out of Xicheng to welcome Yang Yuanpu's arrival on the eighth day of the lunar month the next day.

Before the river, the sails gathered.

Combat in close quarters

However, in order to protect Yang Yuanpu, the king of Tan, from Pengzecheng in Jiangzhou all the way along the south bank post road to the east from the Lou Boat Army to launch a sneak attack from the Yangtze River, the Wuya Army Naval Division still sent 16 oared sailing ships to cover the flanks of the land soldiers and horses.

In medium- and long-range surface warfare, the advantage of the oars sailing ships being able to use the wind to sail quickly is more obvious - and it is impossible for the Anning Palace to send a large building ship that requires hundreds of boatmen to paddle but can only sail slowly, and on the river surface where the target is easy to be found, it is hundreds of miles away from the water camp to carry out some kind of sneak attack.

The Su Guard, with Chen De as the envoy of Wude and the commander of the envoy, was the only pure cavalry combat force in Yueyang, and hundreds of five-colored banners swaggered in the wind, whirring and blowing, which seemed to make people feel that the wind was more violent.

There were hundreds of horse-drawn carriages, ranging ornate and modest.

Concubine Wang Chan'er and Princess Li Yao still stayed in Yueyang, but Yang Yuanpu went east this time, but the county lord of Qingyang brought them with them.

After taking Jinling City this time, Yang Yuanpu will directly succeed to the throne in Jinling.

In the future, unless there is a very special situation like patrolling the world, Yang Yuanpu will not have the opportunity to return to Yueyang's Tan Palace, the concubine and the princess Li Yao are not in a hurry to travel, but the lord of Qingyang and the eunuchs and maids of Changxin Palace and Chengtian Hall are accompanying them eastward, but there is nothing abrupt about it.

Han Qian saw that Li Pu's eyes were a little distracted, and he smiled in his heart, thinking that power was more of a sweet fruit of imperial power in the eyes of Li Pu, who thought he was better at power struggle.

Even if Li Zhihe's true life experience is still in the dark, he should also know that there are many hidden dangers buried under the strong surface of the Marquis of Xinchang's mansion, and he is full of anxiety to repair Yang Yuanpu's trust in him, but his daughter did not follow Yang Yuanpu to the first batch of eastward advances, how can he not be happy, right?

"Your Highness, come here, father, let's go!" Li Zhihe, who was standing in front of the long pavilion, looked at the banner from afar, greeted Li Pu, Han Qian and others, walked out of the long pavilion together, and greeted him by the side of the road.

Yang Yuanpu rode on a horse, and for a man who was only eighteen years old and could dominate the world by half a step, he had just stepped into his youth.

Although the cold wind blowing from the river was cold, Yang Yuanpu was like a spring breeze.

He specially wore a scale armor outside the golden silk python dragon robe, wearing a long knife with a wrong gold, heroic and upright, his eyes were blazing, and his spirit was flying, and he saw Han Wenhuan, Han Daochang, Han Qian, Li Zhihe, Li Pu, Li Changfeng, Li Xiu, Gao Long, and Zhang Ping, who entered Fanchang City first, guarding the city gate, he turned over and dismounted, and took Zheng Yu, Shen Yang, Han Daoming, Zhang Chao, Yang Zhitang and others, and strode over.

"Rebellion is successful, and the crime is successful, thanks to Master Han's advice for me, please Master Han receive a gift from Yuan Pu!" More than ten steps away, watching Han Qian support Han Wenhuan, and Li Pu and others hurriedly greeted him, Yang Yuanpu bowed from a distance.

Han Qian held his grandfather Han Wenhuan and walked in front of Li Pu, and behind them were the generals who arrived in Fanchang City first, such as Li Changfeng, Li Zhihe, and Han Daochang, the Marquis of Linjin.

Yang Yuanpu suddenly made this big gift, and when Han Qian was caught off guard, he met the complicated eyes that looked at him one after another, and a silent sigh appeared in the depths of his heart.

Li Zhihe was also slightly stunned at this moment, looking at following Yang Yuan

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Pu walked over together, Zheng Yu, Zheng Chang, Yang Zhitang and others who were standing behind Yang Yuanpu at this moment were also surprised, thinking that they didn't expect Yang Yuanpu to deign to thank Han Qian when they saw him, but seeing that the corners of their mouths showed a hint of a smile, they also knew what Yang Yuanpu's intention was in front of many generals in Yueyang in front of Han Qian.

After all, His Royal Highness didn't believe that Han Qian would really hand over the power of the Guangde Army to the government without any conditions, so he had to publicize his master-apprentice relationship with Han Qian in front of many generals, and the purpose was mainly to make Han Qian not turn his back on his master-apprentice relationship, and tell Han Qian not to betray his trust, right?

Or after arriving in Fanchang County this time, he will directly leave Han Qian behind him to take charge, and replace someone else to take over the Guangde Army and set up the embassy?

Without anyone else's reminder, the young man who was once weak and pale-faced had such a powerful power technique?

It's just that he thought that Han Qian had spread the news before that he would hand over the military power after the war, and it was just a trick to retreat into advance, but he couldn't help but look down on Han Qian too much, right?

Li Zhihe saw his father-in-law's eyes glancing at Han Qian, as if he had hidden the mockery of watching Han Qian's good show, and he only sighed slightly in his heart, and stood silently behind Han Qian.

Han Qian bowed down in front of Yang Yuanpu, the king of Tan, with a deeper bow, and said in a loud voice:

"The queen of the thieves, the Xu family, went against the grain, and the people rebelled and left, and His Royal Highness was wise and martial, and the crime of rebellion was to make the world return to the heart, and the military and his life were taken, Han Qian was not shaking some little wit, and he did some small things in the name of His Highness and the general trend, and he should not be praised falsely by His Highness."

Yang Yuanpu stepped forward and grabbed Han Qian's arm, and then accepted Han Wenhuan, Li Pu, Li Zhihe and others to come forward to salute.

"What are they talking about, looking at them all laughing, but their expressions are more or less strange?" The car of Changxin Palace was a little behind, Qingyang opened the curtain, looked at Yang Yuanpu and Han Qian from a distance, chatting and laughing in the crowd of Yigan and others, and asked Du Qiniang, who walked to the side of the car to rest and wait.

"Or maybe you're talking about the militaristic affairs of attacking Jinling." Du Qiniang said, her eyes were also looking over there, I don't know if the eldest brother Du Yijun and the younger brother Du Yiming came to Fanchang with Han Qian, they haven't seen each other for almost two years, and they don't know if their appearance has changed.

"What's the hurry about fighting Jinling, it's not a matter of a day earlier or a day later," Qingyang said with a smile, "According to me, they must be discussing that during the attack on Jinling, His Royal Highness will leave Han Qian by his side to make suggestions, who should be chosen to replace Han Qian to lead the Guangde Army and the Guangde Army to control the government." ”

Du Qiniang was slightly startled.

Although Qingyang treats her closer than before during this time, she also maintains a distance, and she usually has to be summoned to show her face in front of Qingyang.

All the way from Yueyang, I also heard rumors that Han Qian said that he would hand over the military power after the war, but he didn't know the details, let alone what His Highness and Shen Yang and other ministers thought in their hearts.

They stood more than 100 steps, the wind was strong, of course, it was impossible to hear what His Highness was talking about pulling Han Qian, and she could only see their faces vaguely, she thought to herself that since the Qingyang County Lord said so, it was obvious that His Highness had already discussed this matter with the Qingyang County Lord on the road, and had already decided to separate Han Qian from the Guangde Army Control Embassy before the final general attack on Jinling?
