Chapter 1447 Southern Expedition to the State of Chu
"Yes!"
Upon learning of Lin Feng's order, Han Xiandang, Mu Junchen, and Yue Yunshan's generals bowed and saluted in unison and exited the imperial study.
At this time, Lin Feng's gaze shifted to Feng Shihu and Zhang Yu, and said, "General Feng, General Zhang, quickly assemble the Yan army and go to the Chu State with me!"
Feng Shihu and Zhang Yu did not accept Lin Feng's orders directly, and there was a faint melancholy on their faces!
"Your Majesty, the Yan army occupies Gusu, but the chaos has not yet been quelled, and the people rebelled, the Yan army all went to Chu State, and the people of Gusu City are afraid that they will revolt!" Feng Shihu expressed his worries to Lin Feng!
They can't just focus on fighting the country and forget about governance, which makes it easy to go wrong!
"That's right, the emperor, it's easy to fight the country, it's difficult to govern the country and defend the country, the emperor's choice is too hasty!" Zhang Yu agreed with Feng Shihu's proposal!
All the generals are exhausted, only they and Zhao Hongru are left, Zhao Hongru has just been rewarded as the king of Wu, and he will not stay in Gusu!
Therefore, who will govern Gusu?
"General Feng, General Zhang, Luo Da, Luo Da leads half of the blade elites, sits in Gusu City, and stabilizes the rear!" Lin Feng said, he wanted to test Feng Shihu, and Zhang Yu was determined to go south to attack Chu!
"It's... Your Majesty, General Luo may not be able to take responsibility!" Feng Shihu stammered, doubting Lin Feng's decision!
Luo Da is brave, but he has no courage and no strategy for the generals, so he will stay in Gusu City, afraid that he will not be able to govern the city!
If the populace revolts and Rhoda orders the Blade Elite to be quelled, it will cause even more massacre!
In addition, Luo Da, as Lin Feng's personal general, and Cao Aman protected Lin Feng's safety, but unfortunately, his overall status in the Yan Army was not high!
He led his troops to sit in Gusu City, afraid that he would not be able to deter the rebellion of Wu State!
"Your Majesty, the last general suggests that another candidate be chosen!" Zhang Yu replied!
"General Feng, General Zhang, Luo Da is not suitable, are you willing to stay!" Lin Feng sat on the dragon chair and asked calmly!
He knew that Zhao Hongru was crowned king, Feng Shihu, and Zhang Yu couldn't wait to go to Chu State, capture Xiong Wu alive, and worship the king!
"Your Majesty, if you don't stabilize the rear, the Yan army is afraid that you won't be able to fight for a long time in the Chu State, and the last general is willing to stay!" Feng Shihu said.
"Your Majesty, the last general is also willing to stay, stabilize the rear for the army, and ensure that the emperor will lead the troops and seize the state of Chu in one fell swoop!" ZHANG Yudao.
Lin Feng bowed slightly, and the smile on the dragon's face grew, they were willing to stabilize the rear for the Yan army, proving that the iron heart supported the Yan army to fight in the Chu State for a long time!
With the support of Feng Shihu and Zhang Yu, Lin Feng firmly believes that within half a year, sooner or later, the state of Chu will be annexed!
At this time, Zhao Hongru stepped forward, looked at Zhang Yu and Feng Shihu, and said: "Your Majesty, General Feng, General Zhang is a fierce general in the army, they will lead the troops to the Chu State, and the annexation of the Chu State is just around the corner, and the last general is willing to stay in Gu and stabilize the rear for the emperor!"
He has already been rewarded by the king of Wu, if he goes to the state of Chu to compete with the generals, he is afraid that the generals will be dissatisfied!
What's more, it is important to attack cities and seize land in the front, expand the territory, and stabilize the country in the rear, which is also crucial!
Feng Shihu and Zhang Yu were eager to go to Chu to fight, and they were worried about the safety of Gusu City, so he had no choice but to stay!
"That's good!" Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction, got up and walked to the front of the jade steps, and said, "Hongru, you take the ironclad infantry, garrison Gusu, and strive to restore order in Gusu City, if you have any problems, report to me at any time!"
"Yes!" Zhao Hongru got the order, and said with a firm expression!
"Your Majesty, the last general will go to the barracks to rectify and order the Yan army to go south!"
Feng Shihu and Zhang Yu did not stay in the imperial study for a long time, and bowed down and slowly withdrew.
With Zhao Hongru fighting Gusu City and conquering Chu State, the Yan army has no worries!
The Yan army stopped its triumphant return and wanted to go south to conquer the Chu State!
Lin Feng decided to march south, and the generals called on the Yan army to attack Chu, and within half a day, the news of the southern expedition to attack Chu spread all over the Yan army!
In the barracks, there is joy and sorrow!
The New Year is approaching, and the family is reunited!
was disrupted by the news of the sudden southern expedition to Chu, which made many Yan troops resist!
The emperor led them to fight in the south continuously, from the west of the Sword Pavilion to the coast of the East China Sea!
The Yan army has made brilliant achievements, harvested abundantly, many soldiers are brave, and the generals are ready to return triumphantly and prepare to reunite with their families!
The emperor is defeating Chu, reality is unified, and the sudden news breaks the plan of triumphant return!
However, the generals called on the Yan army to conquer Chu in the south, and also said many things that made the Yan army excited!
The army went to the state of Chu to fight, and the money and food obtained in the state of Chu were rewarded with thirty percent of the soldiers who fought bravely!
At the end of the year, the emperor and the Yan army held a memorial ceremony in the Chu State and accompanied the Yan army to celebrate the festival in the camp.
When you arrive in the south, if you meet a woman in the south, you can get married, marry a wife and have children!
Great Rewards!
The emperor accompanies you!
Marry a wife and have children!
One reward after another, let the Yan army, who is tired of fighting, regain its momentum again!
Among them, those who have already married and had children are looking forward to making achievements on the battlefield, receiving rich rewards, and returning to their hometowns so that their families can live a prosperous life!
Those who have not yet married a wife and had children hope to go south to make contributions and find their favorite woman in the Chu Kingdom!
The most important thing is that the emperor will accompany everyone in the military camp for the festival, which is difficult to prevent for a thousand years, and it is impossible to ask for an opportunity!
With this, in many military camps, engagement ceremonies were held, and the soldiers of the Yan army made a marriage contract with the women inside and outside Gusu City!
It is agreed that the triumphant return in the Chu State will be the day of the wedding!
Many generals in the army, such as Zhao Hongru, Zhang Yu, Meng Kuo, Feng Yi and other generals, specially presided over the engagement ceremony for the soldiers in order to encourage the Yan army to conquer Chu in the south!
Simple measures made the Yan army's momentum gradually rise, screaming, and wanting to march south!
At this time, there was a lot of news among the people in Gusu City!
Emperor Yan!
Emperor Yan wants to go south to attack Chu and realize the unification of the country!
The world is unified, the war is over, Emperor Yan will implement the policy of ruling by inaction and recuperating in the territory of Yan State, and I hope that the people of Wu State will not listen to gossip!
At the same time, the people in Gusu City learned that the Yan army marched south, and only Zhao Hongru led the ironclad infantry to garrison it!
News like this circulated in Gusu City, and even, many people remembered that as early as before the Yan army broke through Gusu City, Emperor Yan reminded him to strike, unify the world, and recuperate!
The news came out again, some people were convinced, and some people suspected that Emperor Yan would appease the people's hearts and seize the country, and he would forget his promise!
In any case, within a few days, the money, food, and ordnance that were transported from all over arrived in Gusu City!
After the distribution of various armies, the Yan army stationed inside and outside Gusu City was successively drawn out one after another, and went south to attack Chu!
A few days later, in Gusu City, only the ironclad infantry under Zhao Hongru's tent remained!
The Yan army left, and in the initial Gusu City, many restless people were afraid of Zhao Hongru's murderous name!
It is very clear that Zhao Hongru is a Confucian student, but he has been fighting on the battlefield for more than ten years, and his hands are full of the blood of emperors and generals of various countries!
However, as order in the city was gradually restored, Zhao Hongru did not pursue the charges of the rebels, and many ill-intentioned people were ready to act in secret!
They thought that the main force of the Yan army was attacking Chu in the south, and Zhao Hongru had tens of thousands of ironclad infantry under his tent, and he did not hold everyone accountable, because he was afraid of the people in Gusu City!
Therefore, the rebels called on the family to die, the people to rebel, and within a few days, they attacked the government office and the ironclad infantry camp one after another!
It's a pity that a group of small people can't afford to turn up the monstrous waves!
Zhao Hongru attacked with thunder, led the troops to defeat the rebels one by one, followed the vine, found out the real culprit behind the scenes, and killed them in public!
For a time, there was a river of blood in Gusu City, and there were many bones!
Everyone, witnessing Zhao Hongru's strong attitude and decisive character, the rebels gradually died down and did not dare to be arrogant!
So, several times to clear up!
The number of rebels with ulterior motives in Gusu City is gradually decreasing.
Even if a few people are unwilling, in front of the powerful and belligerent Yan Army Blade, they still don't dare to act rashly!
Only dormant and shrink, waiting for the opportunity!
The dust settled in Gusu City, and Zhao Hongru actively adopted a gentle strategy in Gusu City.
On the one hand, we will open warehouses for grain relief and redistribute the ridges, and on the other hand, we will restore order in the city, revive commerce, and strive to restore the former peace of Gusu City!
Suppression, Huairou strategy two-pronged, the smell of war in Gusu City dissipated, the terrifying atmosphere disappeared, and everything returned to calm!
Call!
"Chu State, after more than ten years, finally set foot on the territory of Chu State!"
On the long Wuchu border, Lin Feng led the blade warriors, as if they were moving forward in the dark, rolling torrents, horses' hooves rumbling, and galloping from north to south on a large scale!
In the center of the galloping iron horse, Duan Mengrou sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain, looked at the familiar city and the familiar scenery with her beautiful eyes, and couldn't help but sigh!
For many years, she has been thinking about it day and night in Yan Kingdom, hoping that one day, she will return to Chu State!
Now, she has set foot on the territory of Chu State again, and Lin Feng has also led hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of Yan State to kill!
The prosperous, rich, and powerful Chu State is about to change hands and become the territory of the Yan State!
In the carriage, Han Ningzhi closed her eyes and recuperated, Liang Ruochu hugged the little princess in her arms and took care of it, Ji Xuanling paid attention to the cities and official roads along the way!
"Chu civil strife, in recent years, Chu Emperor Xiong Wu, the new emperor Xiong Heng, in the north of Chu in a row, launched several major wars, the city was destroyed, the fertile land was destroyed, the people were displaced, many people either went to the southern imperial city for refuge, or went north to Yan State, and even sailed out to sea to find a pure land!"
Seeing Duan Mengrou's excited appearance, Ji Xuanling's face was slightly sad, there have been wars for many years, and the people have suffered, even the Chu State is no exception!
Once, the state of Chu, rich, powerful, and the vassal states of the south, learn from the example of envy!
Now, with continuous wars, the population of Chu has plummeted, fertile land has been destroyed, broken walls and ruins, and many cities have long since disappeared, let alone the prosperity of the past!
Ji Xuanling has lived in the Tibetan Soldier Valley of Chu for a long time, and he claims that Chu is a fertile land and a blessed land, but now he is full of pity!
However, her heart is like a mirror, among the vassal states, only the divided Chu State remains, and it is impossible for Lin Feng to give up the Chu State and let it stand tall in the south!
"War, inevitably destroying, breaking the jars, the war is over, can be re-established. Xuan Ling, you haven't gone to Shendu yet, you don't know about the Northern War, after order is restored, and there is no war in various places, the people will live in peace!
I believe that after the labor pains, under the governance of Fujun, the Chu State will still recover quickly, and the prosperity will definitely far exceed the past!"
Duan Mengrou smiled like a smile, as if she was not interested in being ruined by the war, her thoughts were more optimistic than Ji Xuanling!
