North of the Yangtze River with 500,000 troops of the Northern Sui Army, the atmosphere in Jiankang suddenly became tense!

Qingxu Lao Dao did not receive the order of the Nanchen Imperial Court to lead the army to move to the riverside, but he was frequently invited by the high-level of the Yin Kui faction in the city to suppress the restless heroes of the rivers and lakes who had suddenly poured into the city recently.

I don't know if it's the handiwork of the Northern Sui, in short, with the Northern Sui Chen 500,000 soldiers on the north bank of the Yangtze River, suddenly many northern martial arts heroes crossed the river to Jiankang and caused a series of troubles in the city.

As the most powerful force in the rivers and lakes in Jiankang City, the demon concubine Zhang Lihua and her family of Yin Kui faction naturally did not want to see that there was a problem with the order in the city, especially the chaos caused by the heroes of the rivers and lakes who came from the north.

It seems that every time there is a turbulent moment, there are always ghosts, snakes and gods from all walks of life on the cusp, making the already chaotic situation even more chaotic.

Although the strength of the Yin Kwai faction is strong, it is not so domineering that it does not allow the martial arts heroes of the Northland to enter the city.

If you want to deter the heroes of the rivers and lakes who are pregnant with ghosts in the center of the city, it is obvious that the demon concubine Zhang Lihua and her family are obviously seriously understaffed, and this is not clear that the old Taoist and Lei Hu masters and apprentices will take turns to enter the city to help sit in the town, and deal with the conflicts in the rivers and lakes that may break out in a timely manner, which is really tired enough.

I don't know if it's because the deterrent power of the Yin Kwai faction is enough, or if the gang of heroes who poured into the city are waiting for something, they are surprisingly honest and peaceful, not at all as rough and wild as usual, but the atmosphere in the city has become extremely weird, and anyone with a keen mind can detect that something is wrong.

The more this is the case, the more the Yin Kui faction led by the demon concubine Zhang Lihua does not dare to slack off.

After many efforts, the demon concubine used a lot of means, and finally pulled the queen's son-in-law off the horse, and successfully promoted her own son to the crown prince.

It is best that the north bank of the Yangtze River is just a façade for the North Sui Chen soldiers, and the South Chen can still be maintained.

Obviously, as her son became the crown prince of Nan Chen, the demon concubine Zhang Lihua's mind has shifted from the previous martial arts to the court battle, and she is bound to keep her son and her status.

In this way, she has scruples in her heart, she is a halfway monk, not to mention the power struggle in the court, but she is definitely not the opponent of those old foxes, and she will inevitably shrink her hands and feet to do things, and she will not be able to let go, and she will lack the domineering and ruthlessness of the demon concubine.

"Why are you making such a fuss?"

In private, Lei Hu complained: "Send troops directly into the city, all the heroes with a northern accent will be escorted to the barracks to guard at such a critical moment, but if you dare to resist, let the brothers show their Mo swords, see if their martial arts are powerful, or the brothers' Mo knives are sharp!" ”

It's no wonder that he is like this, the demon concubine Zhang Lihua seems to have lost her square inch, in addition to making the high-level of the Yin Kwai faction under her hands move, she also let Qingxu Lao Dao and Lei Hu take turns to enter the city to deter Xiaoxiao.

This kind of move is not of much significance, but it involves most of the energy of the master and apprentice in Jiankang City, and most of the rest of the energy is spent on training sergeants, but there is not much energy to care about the situation in the north, which is not a good thing.

The 500,000 army is not an ornament, and since Bei Sui has already shown its sharp fangs, it is natural that he will not take it back easily, but just play tricks to scare people with Nan Chen.

You must know that the daily consumption of grain and grass by 500,000 generals is not a small amount, and even the family foundation of the Northern Sui cannot support it for long.

Clear-eyed people know that this battle is more auspicious than lucky.

The population of the entire Nanchen Ming is less than three million, even if a large number of hidden households and mountain people are added, it will not exceed five million, and the Northern Sui is about one-fifth of the population of Nanchen, what can Nanchen resist?

If Nanchen Wanzhong is united, whether it is the imperial court or the local scholars, and even the strength of the mountain people is added together, plus the geographical advantage, I am afraid that they can still compete, but at present, Nanchen Junchen is still drunk and dreaming of death, and the local scholars and the mountain people are attacking each other, and it is not easy to pull the hind legs secretly, as for all the southern forces, it is simply a dream.

At such a critical moment, if you want to change to Thunder Tiger, you can simply fight for both sides, take out the ruthless means of killing and decisive, clean up all the dissidents in several major southern cities, including Jiankang City, and then gather the strength that the court can show to compete with the Northern Sui army.

After all, there is a natural danger of the Yangtze River, and Nan Chen's sailors still have an advantage.

Even if part of the Yangtze River defense line is broken, as long as the Yangtze River Naval Division intercepts effectively and blocks the follow-up troops and horses of the Northern Sui on the north bank, the Nanchen side can even create a favorable environment for fighting more and fighting less.

Don't look at the Northern Sui to take out 500,000 troops in one go, at least the general number of them are heavy men and horses used for logistics and transportation, as long as the Northern Sui soldiers can be killed and wounded more than 50,000, it can completely shake the morale of the Northern Sui army, and maybe the Southern Chen court can survive for a while.

After all, Lei Hu achieved the high position of the cabinet chief assistant of the Central Plains Dynasty in his previous life, and later went out to the sea to struggle, and commanded the troops in the South China Sea all the year round, and he had a very clear understanding of the overall situation and the combat power of the army in the feudal era, but unfortunately his status in this life was not enough.

And Nan Chen Chaotang is too bad, he didn't think about dying for Nan Chen, he can only say that within his ability, he can do his best, as for things that are beyond his ability, don't count on him.

The main thing is that the demon concubine Zhang Lihua has a great reputation, but unfortunately it is all relied on the favor of Chen Shubao, the lord of Chen, and there is no foundation in the court, even if Lei Hu expresses all the thoughts in his heart, and gets the recognition and support of the demon concubine, he may not be able to pass in the court.

The current Nan Chen is such a fucking environment!

Originally, the 30,000 horses under Qingxu Lao Dao and Lei Hu were the military combat power that the demon concubine could rely on, but unfortunately, when the situation was urgent, the demon concubine and the high-level cadres of the Yin Kui faction still did not change their habits and paid more attention to the suppression of the heroes of the rivers and lakes in the north, rather than dealing with the current situation with a holistic view.

To put it mildly, since the demon concubine's biological son has become the crown prince and the heir of Nan Chen's name, Chen Shubao, the lord of Chen, is not much use.

Anyway, this guy has been addicted to alcohol and can't extricate himself, if the demon concubine is smart and ruthless, she will directly put Chen Shubao under house arrest, and she doesn't have to play military advice, as long as she cuts off her contact with the outside world, it is estimated that Chen Shubao still wants to be like this, right?

Then, the demon concubine can deter the government in the name of the crown prince, and integrate the power of Nan Chen according to the thunder and thunder of the thunder tiger to deal with the war of annihilation launched by the Northern Sui.

Lei Hu was very bold, and told the demon concubine such an idea euphemistically through the master's old way, but unfortunately the demon concubine did not adopt it.

"Ah Hu, you complain less, since our master and apprentice took the initiative to defect to the demon concubine, let's do things honestly, as for the final situation, it's not something we can control!"

Qingxu Lao Dao rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Besides, if you dare to treat the heroes in the city so toughly, I'm afraid it will cause turmoil in advance!" ”

"It's better to trigger it early than to be stabbed at a critical moment, right?"

Lei Hu didn't care, reluctantly changed the topic, and said depressedly: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, master, let's be careful, don't be taken advantage of by the people and horses on the side of the Northern Sui!" ”

There were no effective generals under his command, and the 30,000-strong army could only be cooped in one place under his unified command.

Otherwise, Lei Hu wanted to divide his men and horses in two, and sent a capable group of men and horses to directly block the common city gates, so as not to give the Northern Sui army a chance.

Just when Nan Chen Junchen was still drunk and dreaming of death, the Northern Sui army finally moved.

The soldiers and horses distributed in the Sichuan-Shu and Hanshui areas took the lead in mobilizing, and they beat the local Nanchen official army with three strikes and five divisions, and even the Yangtze River sailors there were overturned, directly occupying several strongholds on the Yangtze River with good terrain, and posing as if they could cross the river at any time.

At this moment, Nanchen Junchen, who was pretending to be an ostrich, panicked, thinking that the Yangtze River defense line was impregnable, but he didn't expect the combat power of the Northern Sui people to be so strong, seeing that the other party had a foothold across the Yangtze River, if Nan Chen's side did not react, I was afraid that the Northern Sui people and horses would really cross the Yangtze River.

Rush!

The performance of Nanchen Junchen can only be described in these four words, regardless of the deployment of the entire Yangtze River defense line, he hurriedly transferred the Nanchen official army in the Hanshui area, or part of the Yangtze River naval division, to garrison it.

Even, there is a bastard who doesn't know what to think, and he actually suggested to Chen Shubao, the master of Chen, that the Qingxu Old Dao Department be transferred to Hanshui to garrison, if it weren't for the good blowing of the pillow wind on the pillow of the demon concubine Zhang Lihua, I am afraid that the Qingxu Old Dao and the Lei Hu master and apprentice would have to be transferred away from the Jiankang defense line at such a critical moment.

"In my opinion, many ministers in the city are thinking of surrendering!"

When he returned to the barracks from Jiankang City and talked to his master Qingxu Lao Dao, he sneered: "As long as you surrender in time, maybe you can get a good position in the Northern Sui Dynasty!" ”

"Even if they are idle by the Northern Sui Dynasty, with the power of them and the family behind them in the south, they can still live a prosperous life, and they are still the people who are looked up to by the people!"

"And all they have to do is to sacrifice Lord Chen!"

This is really mean to say, if it is spread out, it will definitely cause some twists and turns, but now Qingxu Lao Dao showed a look of approval, and sighed: "If the demon concubine still doesn't make up her mind, I'm afraid she will lose very badly this time!" ”

"No matter, master, let's get ready to do it!"

Lei Hu slapped on the table in front of him, directly turned a hardwood table card into broken wood, and a strong bloody aura erupted on his body, and he said fiercely: "The matter has come to this point, no matter how much you say, it's useless!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at the master Qingxu and said slowly: "This time, we must kill people and turn over the blood of the horse, and try to ensure that the demon concubine leaves Jiankang safely, so that our master and apprentice can be regarded as repaying the demon concubine's affection, and the others can't take care of so much!" ”

In his heart, his ambition was swelling and his blood was boiling, and the battle of Sui to destroy Chen was about to begin, and Lei Hu decided to take advantage of this opportunity.
