Chapter 434: Overwhelming

In the thirteenth year of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the last battle to pacify the world finally began.

Let's be honest with the process...... It's really a bit lackluster, and for Da Song, it's a little too smooth, so smooth that it hardly looks like a war.

First of all, Cao Bin's main force, they are still relatively far from Jinling, if you want to go down the river, you must pass through the mouth of the lake guarded by Zhu Quanyun, Zhu Quanyun has a full 100,000 people in his hands of the Southern Tang Dynasty Naval Division, and occupies the key dangerous road, although the Southern Tang Dynasty is a little rubbish in land combat effectiveness, the naval division is not at all false to the Song army.

First of all, he only sent troops to mediate in name and did not declare war, and secondly, the speed of Cao Bin's troops was too fast, almost Li Yu received the letter before and after he went down the river, so that Zhu Quanyun, the guard of Hukou, did not get the news at all.

In the face of Cao Binfan's sail and the sailors covering the air, the first reaction of this cargo was to gather the ships and close the gate of the village, for fear of upsetting the Song army and causing trouble.

Then, he watched Cao Bin and his warships pass by the gate of Hukou Shuizhai in a big way, followed by thousands of civilian boats full of soldiers, and even bamboo rows, after all, the Song Dynasty lacked ships.

This is not that he secretly surrendered to the enemy, but the practice between the Song and the Southern Tang Dynasty, every time the Song army warships patrol the river, they do this, as long as they give enough face, the Song army will return the same way, and gradually the two armies have formed a tacit understanding, who would have thought that the Song army would not play cards according to the routine today?

100,000 sailors, just like this, they have become an ornament without firing an arrow.

Coincidentally, exactly the same thing happened in Chizhou, the first reaction of the Chizhou guard after discovering the Song army was to open the city gate and go out of the city with a lot of wine and meat, because this is also a common practice, the Song army in Huzhou will come over once or twice a month on average, as long as Chizhou prepares wine and meat, let the Song army eat and drink well, and fight tooth sacrifices, they will naturally go back after they have eaten and drunk, and this time......

The important town of Chizhou was not used for half an hour, and Pan Mei went in without a single soldier.

How ridiculous, what is even more ridiculous is that when Li Yu didn't know that the country had already been opened, in the face of Zhao Kuangyin's groundless accusations, and when the Great Song Dynasty was 'suspected' to send troops to the Southern Tang Dynasty to mediate, this kind-hearted and almost naΓ―ve, simple and almost stupid lord of the country was once again shocked, he actually sent someone to pay tribute to Zhao Kuangyin, 200,000 horses of brocade, 200,000 catties of gold, when these things were sent to Kaifeng, Zhao Kuangyin was standing on the city wall to watch his sailor Yang Fan go south.

This may just be a coincidence, but what Li Yu did next was enough to make several armies of the Great Song Dynasty laugh off their big teeth.

After learning that he had been tricked by the Great Song Dynasty, Li Yu was furious, but the first order he gave was to be the emperor. The reason is also sufficient, if the name is not right, it is not good, he wants to fight this battle with Zhao Kuangyin as the Ninth Five-Year Honor, in exchange for the heart of the Southern Tang Dynasty army and people who share the same hatred for the enemy.

The front line is fighting, but he is busy calling himself the emperor, this time at least three days have passed inside and out, this is three precious days of gold, silver, pearl and agate, and more importantly, these Great Song Dynasty beat him anymore is no longer a bully, Li Yu politically, personally cut his advantages.

Originally, the Great Song Dynasty came to 'mediate', although Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by, but Zhao Kuangyin also has to ask for face, if you want face, things will be more troublesome, this is actually a very annoying constraint for the front-line generals, and they dare not let go of the fight.

Well, now you're the emperor! This is a rebel and a thief! I'm finally going to be able to beat you up right.

The next battle was really too lackluster, to put it simply, the speed of the Great Song Dynasty strategy was almost equivalent to the speed of the army's march, and Sun Yue had a feeling of fighting for the first time without any spirit at all.

The weakness of the Southern Tang Dynasty does not lie in the number of their troops, the size of the national strength, it is really that the defenders are too warlike, Sun Yue simply doubts what kind of structure Li Yu's head is, how good do you say it is for you to surrender directly.

Anyway, Sun Yue smoothly joined Cui Yanjin in Yangzhou, took three days to conquer Runzhou, and then made a slight detour, and they appeared in the east of Jinling City, and Cao Bin and Tian Qinzuo had also broken through the natural danger quarry, and the Hezhou Party entered the division smoothly, and appeared in the west of Jinling City.

As for Pan Renmei, he is definitely not because he didn't fight well, who let him be the farthest away from Jinling, who would have thought that this four-way army would fight so fast! He was already in a hurry, and if he didn't wait for him to come to Jinling, it would be broken, how embarrassing would he be.

By the way, the reason why Quarry Rock was lost was entirely because of Fan Ruoshui, who was personally given to Zhao Kuangyin by Li Yu, who was too familiar with the hydrological conditions of Quarry Rock, Cao Bin directly built a pontoon bridge on the river and crossed the river after the light army broke through, and the friends of the Southern Tang Dynasty were simply stunned, and then the naval army of the Southern Tang Dynasty was useless.

When Cao Bin, Sun Yue, Cui Yanjin, and Dang Jin finally met, the four of them were actually quite peaceful, because the battle was so smooth.

Cao Bin, as a privy envoy and the main force of the Southern Expedition, sat on the chief of the White Tiger Account after some humility, and Cui Yanjin also sat in the second seat under Sun Yue's strong request, Sun Yue himself sat in three seats, and Dang Jin sat in four seats, as for Qian Yu, he also knew that his identity was embarrassing, and he had already handed over the army to Sun Yue on the way to the army, and he was now ready to chat with Zhao Kuangyin at any time, and he didn't appear in the big tent at all.

Cao Bin simply asked people to bring tea sets and start cooking tea, after all, alcohol is not allowed in the army, and the war has gone smoothly to this point, and these generals in the army really have no enthusiasm for fighting, and the military meeting is completely in accordance with the political meeting.

"Colleagues, Jinling City has been besieged by us, how should this city be fought, do you have to come up with a charter?"

Dang Jin stood up and hugged his fists, and said in a muffled voice: "I don't think there is anything to say, tomorrow we will divide the four of us into the south, south, north, and west, one person will fight a door, whichever way is broken first, it will be the first merit, I bet that this city will be broken within three days." ”

Cao Bin said unhappily: "My Great Song has been preparing for today for more than three years, is it just these three days?" So far, is it possible that this Jinling can't be defeated? ”

Sun Yue opened his mouth and said, "Or, let's wait?" Pan Shuai is still on the way, throw him down to eat alone, it's not good, I think we might as well just surround and not fight, give Li Yu a little pressure, anyway, our army has enough food and grass, what the party commander said is right, this Jinling City can't hold for a few days if it really fights. ”
