Chen Youliang is still dreaming at the moment, he captured Jinling in three days, he is the big hero among the Han people, and Zhu Yuanzhang is just in vain. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
During the three-day period, the tide rose sharply, the wind and waves on the Yangtze River were high, Chen Youliang was naturally not afraid, his ship was big and sinking, and he could soon capture Jinling with a smooth wind, Chen Youliang was full of spirits, and he waved the flag in his hand and rushed to Jinling with hundreds of warships.
The land of Jinling has already been well defended, the four gates of Jinling are guarded by heavy soldiers, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to hold on for three days, no one is allowed to fight, this is angry Hu Dahai, the taste of being beaten here is naturally not good, plus the death of his friend Huayun is even more hateful to Chen You, but now the lord has ordered that those who go out to fight without permission will be killed, Zhu Yuanzhang has issued a very strict decree since he occupied Jinling, and anyone who violates the people will be beheaded, and those who violate military discipline will be severely punished.
The wide river is black and pressed, almost completely covered by warships, Chen Youliang is also considered to be wealthy, such a warship is worth a lot of money, and now it has reached hundreds of them, a dark cloud shrouded in the sky over Jinling, this will be a bloody battle, Chen Youliang, Zhu Yuanzhang has encountered the most terrible opponent in his life.
The battle then began, hundreds of cannons on the warship were fired together, and finally let the world see the terrible place of artillery, the wide city wall was almost broken by a burst of intensive artillery fire, and was affected by the artillery fire, the Jinling defenders suffered countless casualties, there was no sadness and no wailing, and the calmness shown in the face of the dead was completely revealed.
The army of the Han King landed under the black pressure, and the originally long waterfront was shortened by nearly half because of the high tide, Chen Youliang couldn't help laughing when he looked at the smashed city wall: "What about Zhu Yuanzhang, what about Liu Ji, it's not all flesh and blood, I don't believe that I Chen Youliang can't kill you!" ”
The next battle for life and death in Jinling City is launched, the focus of the competition is the city wall, once the opponent enters the city, the situation will be completely out of control, this is exactly the ending that Zhu Yuanzhang does not want to see, the defenders in the city are stationed in four gates, spears are lined up, and the corpses are piled up into a hill, as the wall to block the opponent has long been dilapidated, Chen Youliang's army tried to rush in from the gap, but found that it had already been blocked by a group of men who were not afraid of death with their bodies, Chen Youliang blasted open the city wall made of cement bricks and could not blast the flesh and blood.
The war lasted for a day, Chen Youliang's army retreated at night, and there were no less than tens of thousands of dead and wounded soldiers on both sides after the first battle, what annoyed Chen Youliang was that his army did not advance an inch, Chen Youliang could afford to consume it, and he was far above Zhu Yuanzhang in terms of troops, and there was enough food on the warship, so Chen Youliang was naturally not afraid.
After the first battle, Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded the three armies, personally checked the injuries of the soldiers, the people of Jinling sent steamed buns, Zhu Yuanzhang was grateful, his eyes fell on several soldiers, this is just a few teenage children, his thin face turned black because of the war, he looked at himself with a big gun in his hand, the armor on his body was even more tattered, and the helmet should have been taken off the dead Chen Youliang soldier.
Zhu Yuanzhang came to the front of a few people and said, "Where are you from?" ”
A few people: "Haozhou Zhongli people! ”
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but be stunned, it was his hometown, "Are you afraid of fighting?" ”
"Don't be afraid, my father said that the marshal is a hero, and only after following the marshal can you have a good life!"
Looking at the fanaticism in the eyes of several people, Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Ben Shuai promised you to let the people of the world live a good life!" ”
Chen Youliang's soldiers were indeed scolded, if you can't attack the Jinling Gate tomorrow, don't come back to see me, everyone is afraid, because Chen Youliang is ruthless, in order to kill his boss Ni Wenjun in order to get to the top, he will kill all Ni Wenjun's old subordinates, but anyone who opposes Chen Youliang will inevitably end up miserable, even if Chen Youliang tried his best to win over Huayun, in the end he was tortured to death because he would rather die than surrender.
Chen Youliang personally led hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Jinling, although it was claimed to be 800,000, but with Chen Youliang's strength at that time, plus the number of people accommodated by the warship, the maximum was not more than 500,000, even so the number was already twice that of Zhu Yuanzhang, plus the indestructible warship, the combat power was far above the Jinling defenders, Chen Youliang could run rampant naturally for his reasons.
Zhu Yuanzhang has no way to retreat, even if he chooses to avoid his edge and abandon the hard-won Jinling, try to ask himself where he can retreat! His hometown of Haozhou, or the smaller Chuzhou, if that is the case, will inevitably be chased by people like a lost dog, and then the army and prestige that have been built up hard in the past few years will be completely lost, and even become a stepping stone for Chen Youliang to dominate the world, drowning under the opponent's sword and spear, Zhu Yuanzhang is unwilling to fail, he is used to seeing the hot and cold world, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who is dedicated to achieving great things, has long been determined to be rather broken than broken, and the first battle of Jinling cannot be avoided.
Chen Youliang is definitely the most terrible opponent Zhu Yuanzhang has encountered in his life, commanding troops to fight is also Chen Youliang's strength, the huge warship is like a beast with a wide mouth to swallow his Jinling at any time, Zhu Yuanzhang has no choice, the only thing he can rely on is these brothers under his hands, even if Xu Da, Tang He and others bravely try to ask how many people they can kill, Hua Yun's death tells himself all the time, a battle can definitely not be reversed by one person alone, and now Zhu Yuanzhang can only put all his hope on one person, That's Liu Ji.
Liu Ji looked at the warship not far from the city with a calm face, the warship built by Chen Youliang was definitely the most powerful warship in the world at that time, the warship was divided into three layers, each layer was more than two meters high, the spacious and tall warship could even be ridden by cavalry directly, plus the outer layer of iron wrapping, it was definitely an aircraft carrier at that time, those cavalry who were ready to go were just like a fighter ready to give the opponent a fatal blow, such an aircraft carrier was not one, there were hundreds of such main warships in the naval division led by Chen Youliang, The rest of the ships are also much larger than the warships owned by Zhu Yuanzhang, but unfortunately Zhu Yuanzhang not only does not have bombers, but even torpedoes do not have them, and Zhu Yuanzhang is still a beggar compared to Chen Youliang.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "How is the military advisor?" ”
Liu Ji said: "As long as the main gate of Jinling is held for one more day, Chen Youliang's personality will inevitably change positions!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Change positions!" Where would that be? ”
Liu Ji said: "Chen Youliang's advantage is on the water, forcibly attacking the city gate warship is useless at all, if you can't attack the city gate tomorrow, you will definitely turn to attack here!" Liu Ji pointed with his hand on the map.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Longwan? "Longwan is located in the north of Jinling, and the navy can completely enter Longwan to land, but Chen Youliang's advantage is that the navy will give up other water attack points and choose Longwan, Zhu Yuanzhang is puzzled, and points to the map with his hand and says: "Go west with the water, you can directly attack the western city wall, how can Chen Youliang give up!" ”
Liu Ji said: "The words of the lord are extremely true, attacking the western city wall can indeed give full play to the maximum power of the warship!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "What if that's the case? ”
Liu Ji said: "The best strategy is to attack the enemy's short side with your own strengths, and the plan for today can only make Chen Youliang dare not go down the river to attack the west city wall!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "Could it be that there is a mystery in it?" ”
Liu Ji said: "One of the mysteries has to count on one person!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Who? ”
Liu Ji said: "Chen You's account will be Kang Maocai!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "I have already seen that this person is not wholeheartedly surrendering to me, but what should I do?" ”
Liu Ji said: "Kang Maocai secretly ordered someone to send a letter to Chen Youliang to agree to attack the west city wall, but there is still a wooden bridge across the water between the west city wall and Chen Youliang, and ordinary ships can naturally pass unimpeded, but Chen Youliang's mistake is that the boat is too tall, Kang Maocai said in the letter that he secretly destroyed the wooden bridge and let Chen Youliang's army pass!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "How can this be reasonable! ”
Liu Ji said: "Don't be angry, Chen Youliang is suspicious, just use this to trick him into Longwan!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "How to do it!" ”
Liu Ji said: "First of all, order someone to secretly control Kang Maocai!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "This is not difficult! ”
Liu Ji continued: "Then order someone to fill the wooden bridge with sand and mud and turn it into a stone bridge, so that Chen Youliang will inevitably be suspicious, and the stone bridge is strong and not easy to destroy, Chen Youliang will naturally abandon the plan of attacking the west city wall and attack Longwan instead!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "When the time comes, I will ambush Chen Youliang's army in Longwan!" ”
Liu Ji said: "Everything is up to the will of the lord!" ”
