Commanding the old department is naturally Xu Da's wish, not to mention that Xu Da also knows that if Chang Yuchun really loses the battle, only he can take on such an important matter if he can deal with the Han army under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han.

What's more, it is Chu Liuyan who came in person today, no matter what, looking at Chu Liuyan's intentions, it seems that this matter is true.

However, Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang released himself, so how will he explain to the Chuzhou generals. Before being detained by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, Xu Da had already heard rumors in the army: "As long as he is alive for a day, the soldiers and horses of Chuzhou will definitely not give up, and now Wu Guogong actually wants to release himself, I really don't know how Wu Guogong dealt with the stubborn Chuzhou generals."

Could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, had already sent troops to annihilate more than 100,000 soldiers in Chuzhou, but this seems unlikely.

In any case, the hundreds of thousands of generals in Chuzhou are a rare new force, and Wu Guogong will definitely not easily lose such a large number of men and horses in vain.

What's more, these Chuzhou generals are all under the command of the fierce general Liu Futong, and their combat power is extraordinary, even if Zhu Yuanzhang plans to wipe out hundreds of thousands of soldiers, it is not something that can be done easily.

If hundreds of thousands of soldiers rise up to rebel, even if Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, gathers all the military forces around Yingtian to quell the rebellion, he can't easily suppress the soldiers and horses in Chuzhou, and I am afraid that it will take a long time to fight before he can distinguish the winner from the loser.

In this case, why Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang was willing to release himself is still something hidden.

Xu Da was extremely surprised, but these things could not be asked to Wu Guogong rashly, but there was one thing that must be asked.

Xu Da said to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu: "Duke Wu, the last time you came here to talk to me, you said that the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang attacked fiercely, and defeated the immortal general Chang Yuchun in our army. ”

Hearing Xu Da's words, Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but look happy, the last time he ate a closed door soup here in Xu Da, Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally extremely unhappy.

However, as soon as he heard Xu Da open his mouth and asked what the situation was, Wu Guogong's heart moved, and he naturally understood that Xu Da was a general after all, and his successful career was still very tempting for Xu Da.

As long as Xu Daken comes forward and leads his troops to fight against the Han army under the command of Han King Chen Youliang, then at least he can contain Han King Chen Youliang for a while, so that Yingtian's soldiers and horses have a chance to breathe. In this way, he can reorganize his troops and horses, and then compete with the Han army under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, felt that the blood in his whole body was also boiling, no matter what, he was absolutely unwilling to succumb to the hands of the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang, as he said to himself, if the Han King Chen Youliang wanted to enter Yingtian City, then let him step over his corpse, otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would never be willing to give up the slightest.

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Xu Da: "General Chang Yuchun's defeat is indeed undoubted, General Chang has twice sent people to the mansion of his duke to ask for help, but the current elite soldiers have been brought to the front by General Chang Yuchun and General Tang He, and the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers can only protect Yingtian at most, and they can't get into the battle formation at all." ”

Upon hearing this, Xu Da asked Wu Guogong with some surprise: "General Mo Shiyuchun and General Tang He also brought my subordinates to the front line. ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, heard this, he said with an extremely embarrassed face: "It's not, but I don't know why, my own government sent someone to send the generals under your command to the front to support General Chang Yuchun, but the people came back and said that all the generals under General Xu disobeyed the order, so I have no way to mobilize your old department." ”

"What, all the generals under my command disobey the order, aren't they against the sky, Wu Guogong, you must not blame them, there must be some misunderstanding in it." Xu Da said to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, without hesitation.

Hearing Xu Da say this, Zhu Yuanzhang of Wu Guogong relieved his heart, it seems that the disobedience of the generals under Xu Da's command this time really has nothing to do with Xu Da, Xu Dabing did not instruct his subordinate generals to act like this, so it seems that Xu Da's strength in this aspect can really be borrowed.

With a certain thought, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, said to Xu Da in a very gentle tone: "General Xu Da, this matter, no wonder the generals under the general's command are not good for their own country." The public of the country was restrained and detained General Xu, which made the generals under the command of the general angry, even if the generals under the command of the general disobeyed the order, the prince of the country also felt that it was excusable, not an unforgivable thing, no matter what, now that the grievances are over, the prince will not hold a grudge, so please tell the general to tell his subordinates, no matter what happened before, the prince is not to blame, as long as the soldiers and generals under the command of General Xu can fight bravely to kill the enemy, then the high will not punish them, They will still be rewarded. Big merit award, small merit award. ”

Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang said such magnanimous words, listening to Xu Da and Chu Liuyan's hearts, the two of them were naturally extremely happy.

Chu Liuyan looked at Xu Da silently on the side, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that he couldn't leave. Anyway, as long as Xu Da can be rescued by luck this time, it can be regarded as a blessing to heaven. Originally, there shouldn't have been any other requests, but since Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, was able to treat people like this, Chu Liuyan also felt extremely impressed.

The resentment against Zhu Yuanzhang in his heart also dissipated a lot, Chu Liuyan was happy in his heart, and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Wu Guogong, since you have now let General Xu Da lead the three armies to deal with the Han army under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, then you are not inferior to the next one." This time, Liuyan was also willing to go with General Xu Da to kill the enemy. ”

Chu Liuyan's request was beyond the expectations of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu. Chu Liuyan was originally a military advisor in the army, although he had a lot of experience in the battle formation, but most of them were just counselors in the big tent for military affairs.

How can such a military advisor go into battle to kill the enemy.

However, since it was Chu Liuyan who took the initiative to invite Ying and wanted to go to the front line to kill the enemy, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't refute it for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but groan.

I don't know whether to agree with Chu Liuyan's method, or to scold Chu Liuyan for messing around.

Zhu Yuanzhang was undecided, but Xu Da on the side couldn't help it.

Xu Da stretched out his hand and dragged Chu Liuyan to him, glared at Chu Liuyan and said: "Master Chu, this is really a bit too ridiculous, the battle array and killing are all men's affairs, why should you go up and mix with a woman." The sword on the battle formation has no eyes, and it is extremely dangerous, even a veteran of a hundred battles must be cautious, if you rashly break into the enemy formation this time, there will be a great risk. ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, heard Xu Da say this, he also echoed and said to Chu Liuyan: "What General Xu said is reasonable, Chu Junshi, the rest of the things can be promised to you by the Duke of Chu, but this kind of thing is too dangerous, how can the public of the country let the Chu Junshi put himself in danger, this idea, Chu Junshi should take advantage of it and dispel it as soon as possible." ”

Chu Liuyan heard that Zhu Yuanzhang and General Xu Da of Wu Guogong in front of him sang and harmonized, and he was obviously unwilling to let himself go into the battle array, so he pointed at Wu Guogong and said: "Wu Guogong, Chu Liuyan's martial arts are also clear to you, although the battle array is extremely dangerous, but Chu Liuyan is confident and capable of self-protection, no matter what, he asked Wu Guogong to agree to Chu Liuyan's request, these days, you can hear the news of the victory of the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang over the Yingtian soldiers, as a member of Yingtian, Chu Liuyan should also be with the soldiers." , fought bloodily to protect Yingtian City. ”

Chu Liuyan's words were moving, but Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, shook his head unmoved, and continued to persuade Chu Liuyan: "The martial arts of the Chu military division are strong, but the martial arts of the battle array may not work, when the time comes, the flying locusts will shoot like a rain of feather arrows, Rao is Chu military division's martial arts can not be avoided in Gaoqiang, and it must be matched with a thick shield and wear thick armor like ordinary soldiers, otherwise, a rain of arrows will pass, even if it is ten Chu military divisions, they will die on the spot." ”

Hearing Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang say this, Chu Liuyan tilted his head and thought for a while, and his face showed a wandering demeanor.

Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at each other, and felt that judging from Chu Liuyan's complexion, Chu Liuyan must have agreed to the meaning of the two of them, and would not make a request to go into battle to kill the enemy.

But Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da both guessed wrong, Chu Liuyan thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Wu Guogong, General Xu Da, I have already decided, this time I must go to the battle to kill the enemy, Liuyan can be like ordinary soldiers, with a thick shield, wear thick armor, as long as you can go into battle to kill the enemy, even if you can do these things." I've decided. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was taken aback, he didn't expect Chu Liuyan to make such a big determination this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da both knew how difficult it was for Chu Liuyan to ask her to take off her red makeup and put on arms.

For so many years in the army, Chu Liuyan has always dressed up in red makeup, and he has never worn any thick armor, but he really didn't expect to be able to do this this time.

I don't know what Chu Liuyan is so insistent for.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't figure it out when he broke his head, so he couldn't help but turn his gaze to Xu Da on the side.

Xu Da was also extremely surprised, Xu Da had never seen Chu Liuyan insist on doing this, for some things, it was too unexpected for Xu Da.

Xu Da couldn't figure out why Chu Liuyan would do this, so he shifted his gaze from Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The eyes of the two suddenly intersected, and at the same time, they also read the puzzlement and confusion from each other's eyes.

Since this is the case, Wu Guogong did not hesitate, and opened his mouth to Chu Liuyan and asked: "Chu Junshi, for some reason, my country's duke always feels that Chu Junshi is too important to the matter of this battle formation, and I have never seen Chu Junshi so insistent before." I don't know if the Chu military division can inform the national prince of the reason, if the national prince thinks that the Chu military division is reasonable, this time let the Chu military division go to the battle array to experience it. ”

Hearing that Wu Guogong's tone was showing signs of loosening, Chu Liuyan naturally understood that this was a good opportunity, so he thought for a while, and then said to Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang: "Wu Guogong, it's not that Chu Liuyan deliberately insisted this time, it's just that Chu Liuyan felt that he had to go to the battle formation to truly understand the other party's tactics and tactics. As the military advisor of Yingtian's army, if Liu Yan can't even figure out the tactics and tactics of the enemy, then how can he give advice to Wu Guogong. Isn't the so-called strategic strategy and decisive victory thousands of miles away become empty talk of deception? ”

Chu Liuyan's words came out, and Xu Da, who was listening attentively on the side, couldn't help but nod his head, expressing his agreement with Chu Liuyan's opinion.

Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understands this truth, but Zhu Yuanzhang is still concerned about Chu Liuyan's personal safety, and now that Chu Liuyan has brought up this matter, he is very reasonable.

In this situation, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, was not easy to object, so he just continued to ask Chu Liuyan: "This statement of the Chu military division is justified, but for the Duke of China, it is not convincing the Duke of China. If Chu Liuyan has anything else, he might as well say it with his own country, and after listening to it, he should make up his mind. ”

Chu Liuyan saw that Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang had such an attitude, and knew that if he couldn't convince Zhu Yuanzhang this time, he was afraid that it would be ten times more difficult to fight for this matter in the future.

It was Chu Liuyan who took a slight breath, quickly sorted out the thoughts in his heart, and continued to speak to Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, without hesitation; "Wu Guogong must have remembered that the last time I fought on the river with Chen Youliang at the Ying Tian Army, the Han Army Sailor under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang drove dozens of unknown strange ships, rampage among our Navy, and slashed and killed for a while as if entering a no-man's land, and actually returned with a victory of showing off his might, but our Sailor was extremely casualties."

Hearing Chu Liuyan mention this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, was also silent for a while.

Since the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang was burned for a while, I didn't expect the Han King Chen Youliang to use any method to supervise the creation of a batch of ships that have never been seen before, and the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang fought on the river, but even one of the people, Mao (for harmony) did not come down, and it was beaten by these strange warships, which is really a sad thing to say.

After the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, was naturally extremely concerned about this matter, but after the battleship returned to Hanyang, there was no way to get a glimpse of what the structure was.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu, desperately wanted to seize a warship from the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang, no matter how hard he tried, he was never able to break through the water battle formation of the Han army under the command of the Han King Chen Youliang, and was defeated by the other party.

The warships sent to trap the opposing warships were all surrounded and annihilated, and not even a single soldier could escape.

But the most infuriating thing is that a few days later, a few warships rushed down the river from the upstream, and at the beginning of the year, Yingtian's soldiers thought that the soldiers of the Han army under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, had returned, but they shouted several times on the shore, and the boat was lifeless, and no one answered.

After a few generals came, they sent troops to take a look at the ship, but found that the ship was full of the corpses of Ying Tianshuishi, neatly stacked on the ship's board, which seemed to be deliberately done by the Han army.

The smell of dead corpses is too bad, and Zhu Yuanzhang has always loved soldiers like children, and the general who found the corpse of his own sailor soldiers immediately ordered someone to bury the corpse properly, but the strange thing is that a few days later, the soldiers who went to bury the corpse launched a strange disease, and they were like swinging all over their bodies, sour and weak, and they couldn't even lift ordinary weapons. A few days later, all of them died.

What is terrible is that in half a month, more and more soldiers in the barracks have contracted this strange disease, and soldiers die every day.

It's like a terrible plague.

Fortunately, after inspecting the situation, Liu Bowen concluded that the Han army under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, was trying to destroy Yingtian's army by taking advantage of an extremely rare disease.

After Wu Guogong heard the report, he had no choice but to dig up the corpses of these sick soldiers and burn them, so that the situation could be controlled.

Liu Bowen checked the classics, and finally found a way to restrain this plague in an ancient medical scripture, and it took two months to restrain the sudden epidemic.

Thinking of these circumstances, Wu Guogong Zhu Yuanzhang felt a chill in his heart, no matter what, these things had a profound impact on him.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was just defeated, as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard a report that the shadow of a ship appeared on the river, Zhu Yuanzhang was very nervous, for fear that the Han army sailors under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, would come out to challenge.

During that time, there were several shocks overnight, and even Zhu Yuanzhang, who was usually extremely strong, lost weight in half a month, and even the officials who did not often see Wu Guogong were almost unrecognizable.

Since then, the warships piloted by the Han army sailors under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of the Han Dynasty, have always been a piece of heart in the heart of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu.

The Han King Chen Youliang is not terrible, the powerful Han army is not terrible, and Zhu Yuanzhang has defeated them all.

However, the Han army sailors under the command of Chen Youliang, the king of Han, who cooperated with these strange warships, were like a huge horizontal ditch that could not be crossed, in front of Yingtian's soldiers, and also in the heart of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Duke of Wu.

I don't know when I will be able to defeat the Han army's sailors. If he can defeat Chen Youliang's sailor, then Zhu Yuanzhang will take over the world, and it will be just around the corner.
