Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Race to Life and Death

The army had to continue to rush after resting for half an hour, and under this general environment, Qin Yu did not have anything special, and with the support of Daoyan's personal guards, he stepped on the war horse, waved his horsewhip and continued to move forward with this steel torrent.

"Master, what should we do now?"

Although Qin Yu was uncomfortable, it did not mean that he was indifferent to military operations, and he asked weakly lying on his horse.

Dao Yan glanced at Qin Yu, who had a soft tone, and said lightly: "Nonsense, is it better to fight Xuzhou?" A detour, of course! ”

Qin Yu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Are you going in the direction of Suzhou?" ”

It could be seen that Dao Yan didn't want to pay attention to Qin Yu, who was about to die, but he still nodded, and said with a little impatience: "Yes, stop talking, save some physical strength, it's only been a long time, your legs will be wasted, and if you walk for two more days, your bones will fall apart!" ”

Qin Yu nodded, touched the cushion under his buttocks, and asked for a soft cushion from Zhu Di, a little relieved. Fastening his waist to the horse's back with a rope to prevent him from falling off the horse, he hugged the horse's neck tightly, and fell asleep without caring about the bumps.

...

If you want to be under the pervasive monitoring of Jinyiwei, it is impossible for more than 100,000 cavalry troops to enter a no-man's land, as early as Zhu Di led 100,000 iron horsemen out of Jinan City, they were discovered by Jinyiwei, of course, Zhu Di did not intend to hide it, and he couldn't hide it, as long as he relied on the speed of maneuver in the southern army without reacting, he could go to Nanjing City, and the goal was achieved.

It was naturally impossible for Jinyiwei to know Zhu Di's purpose, and while sending someone to report the news, he also sent a lot of Jinyiwei elites to keep an eye on it, until the Yan army directly bypassed Xuzhou, and Jinyiwei, who was in charge of monitoring, realized that something was wrong.

Yan Jun is planning to take Nanjing directly!

But Jin Yiwei only then knew that it was too late!

It can be seen that the speed of the Yan Army's maneuver in front of him is not much slower than the eight hundred miles of Jinyiwei's expeditious! I'm afraid that as soon as the front foot of Nanjing City received the news, the Yan army will be able to arrive on the back foot!

Du Zheng, a hundred households in Jinyi, immediately decided, on the one hand, he sent someone to inform Lingbi's safety, led the main force of the southern army to come back, and on the other hand, informed Nanjing to get ready! As long as Nanjing can be guaranteed not to be captured within a week, the army of King Qin from all over the country will arrive, and the Yan army will die!

Zhu Di knew very well in his heart that those brocade guards must know their purpose, as long as they can besiege the city when they receive the news in Nanjing City, they will be able to win this battle!

Jin Yiwei, Yan Jun, at this time, it can be described as a real race of life and death!

...

At this time, peace can be described as a spring breeze, first in the battle of Dongping, Sheng Yong was captured, not to mention, his henchmen were also captured and killed by the Yan army. I thought that I would also be punished, but I didn't expect that I made myself the commander in a dramatic way, and at this time, almost all the generals in charge of these 200,000 people were my cronies, and the command could be described as an arm, and an order could be executed immediately.

This time, Zhu Di will be captured alive and immediately sealed as a marquis!

"Report!"

A hurried voice came from afar, breaking the peace of YY. The brocade guard soldiers with black feather flags galloped directly on their horses, breaking into the safe Chinese army camp, no one dared to stop along the way, the black feather flag, on behalf of the most urgent military situation, those who hold this feather flag, can go straight to the palace to face the saint, not to mention that Ping An is just the commander of the army!

Looking at the Jinyi Guard soldiers in front of him, Ping An didn't dare to slack off, the Jinyi Guards never acted sloppily, the Black Feather Banner was by no means a joke, there must be a major military situation!

Directly stood up and said to the Jinyi guard in front of him: "What's wrong!?" ”

Jin Yiwei's face was very pale, obviously very tired, and he silently took out a fire-lacquered sealed envelope from his arms, and handed it to the Ping An guards on the side, who did not dare to hesitate, and took it directly and presented it to Ping An.

Ping An checked the integrity of the fire paint, and then opened it to see.

After reading the letter, Ping An oozed a cold sweat, and directly issued an order: "Immediately call the commanders of all armies to come over to discuss the matter!" Those who don't arrive within a moment will be killed! ”

The commanders of the various armies who received the news rushed over non-stop, and once the military orders were issued, they had to be carried out, and there was absolutely no reason to take them back, and no matter how many generals passed through the sky behind them, they all obediently rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army.

Seeing that all the generals had arrived within the specified time, Ping An nodded slightly, then took out the envelope, handed it to the guards and said: "Read all this letter, and discuss it after reading it!" ”

After reading the letter, the generals had different expressions, and they were silent, changing their temper of arguing about things the size of chicken feathers in the past, and looked at everyone angrily, and knew very well in their hearts that no one dared to talk nonsense about such a big matter, and something happened, but they had to be held responsible!

The letter returned to Ping'an's table, and Ping'an said, "Tell me, what should we do now?" ”

After being silent for a long time, Zhang Lin arched his hand and said: "Dashuai, isn't the main force of the Yan army still circling in Jinan, why is there another Yan army on the edge of Xuzhou City now!?" And it's a full-fledged cavalry!? ”

Ping'an glared at Zhang Lin, and said angrily: "Can't you see that Yan Jun is a maze!" Now the one who bypasses Xuzhou is the real main force of the Yan army! The thief heart of the Yan army is clearly revealed, this is to take Nanjing directly! Our army must immediately return to Nanjing to prevent an incident! ”

Wu Minglie, a general who is known for his mobility and is known as Zhiduoxing, who is familiar with the Yan Army, said: "Marshal, I'm afraid it's too late!" There is absolutely no way that our army will rush to Nanjing City before the Yan army, which is composed of all cavalry! The Yan army has only 10,000 or 20,000 defenders in various places, and less than 1,000 people, and it is enough to defend the city, but the Yan army is not attacking the city now, and it is impossible to go directly by detour, and the defenders from all over the country want to go out of the city to fight. And after Jinyiwei notified the Nanjing center, I am afraid that the army of King Qin will not have time to arrive, and Nanjing will have fallen! ”

Ping An knew the disadvantage of his own cavalry, frowned and said, "Then do you have any good ideas!?" ”

Wu Jie was confident, walked to the hanging map, pointed to the map and said: "Boss, please look, the Yan army is very likely to have arrived in Suzhou at present, but it will be able to pass the Huaishui in three days, and the opportunity for our army is here!" ”

Wu Jie pointed to the area around the Jiahe River and continued: "Now there is enough time to notify the defenders in various places along the Huaishui to burn the bamboo rafts and bridges, and with the purpose of the Yan army, if they want to cross the Huaishui, they will definitely not have time to build ships and repair bridges. The Yan army has no way out, so it can only go from Jiahe! ”

Ping'an nodded, he already knew in his heart, regained a little self-confidence, and took Wu Jie's words without a trace: "Yes, Jiahe is located in the upper reaches of the Huai River, not to mention the shallow current, and it is not turbulent, it is suitable for the Yan army to cross the river quickly, and it is not far from our army's station, the cavalry troops can be sent to the camp first, and the infantry battalion can arrive one step later with the material baggage, and block the Yan army here, there is no need to fight a war of annihilation, only need to delay for a few days, and the Yan army will definitely retreat!" ”

Ping'an laughed out loud after saying that, his old face looked very ruddy, and the generals also patted their ass, only Wu Jie, who really gave advice, was forgotten in the corner.
