From Chen Youliang's army, the soldiers are approaching Tianfu, and the situation is in danger.

At the beginning of the annihilation of Chen Youliang's naval army in Longwan, he continued to counterattack, destroyed and defeated the enemy, and successively occupied Jiangxi, Hubei and other cities.

Especially now, when it hits the city of Hanyang, as long as the city is broken and Chen Youliang is captured alive, the overall situation will be decided.

It seems that there is only one step away, that is, success, and the pinnacle of life.

"There is only one step away from success, but there is also one step away from failure, Chen Youliang was like this in the past, and so are you!" Xiang Yu sighed and said: "Chen Youliang has an impatient personality, likes to be aggressive, and doesn't like to fight steadily, so there is such a big defeat!" ”

"But we continued to attack, the battle line was stretched too long, the troops were scattered, and the soldiers were exhausted from continuous battles, and the battle losses were serious, so it was not suitable for another battle."

And Chen Youliang seems to have suffered a huge loss, but the foundation still exists. The elite army stationed in Xiangyang is heading south to rescue; The troops stationed in the south are also rescuing; Stationed in the West, guarding against Ming Yuzhen, and also rescuing, there is not much time left for us! ”

In this battle, Chen Youliang was defeated, but the foundation still exists.

Once the main forces from other directions are mobilized, the victory or defeat will be reversed.

"My lord, it's not good! Chen Youliang's army attacked Wuchang and attacked Hukou, and our rear road is in danger! "Bad news from Liu Bowen.

Zhu Yuanzhang withdrew with endless unwillingness.

In this battle, Zhu Yuanzhang won a great victory, and the whole army cheered; Chen Youliang was defeated and his morale was low.

…………

In Jinling City, many civil and military ministers gathered together and were full of spirit.

When Chen Youliang called, many people were not optimistic about Zhu Yuanzhang, and there was a huge disparity in strength between them.

There are Wenchen generals who want to be two or five boys and take refuge in Chen Youliang, and there is only one time left.

As a result, Chen Youliang was defeated, and he was directly beaten to Wuchang, and suddenly many people had confidence, and many military generals who wanted to be two or five boys and wanted to surrender converged their minds.

Zhu Yuanzhang said after rewarding everyone: "Chen Youliang is just a fisherman, and he is promoted by Ni Wenjun to be rich, but this person has no heart and liver, and directly beheaded his benefactor and annexed his army." ”

"Xu Shouhui is his lord, but he is quarrying stones, hammering and killing him, a ruthless and unjust, beastly person, who does not know how to be grateful, how can he be undefeated!"

Everyone nodded.

Xiang Yu also nodded, but he was extremely disdainful in his heart.

Everyone has the right to say this, but only you, Zhu Chongba, are not qualified.

How did father-in-law Guo Zixing die, how did Guo Zixing's two sons die, and how did his brother-in-law die, don't you have a little pressure in your heart?

In troubled times, you can talk about anything, but you can't talk about benevolence and righteousness.

The younger brother fought the boss and often appeared.

Li Shimin killed his brother and killed his brother and imprisoned his old father, like a beast, but he still opened the rule of Zhenguan, and he was still an emperor through the ages, looking at how many fans of Li Er there were in later generations.

It's just that your Zhu Chongba is not authentic, but you are still the Hongwu Emperor, and there are many fans in later generations.

Chen Youliang killed Xu Shouhui, there was no mistake. The mistake is that after killing people, there is no solid foundation, that is, to march quickly.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Zhao Pusheng is a general, guarding Anqing, I am worried, but Chen Youliang killed him and destroyed the Great Wall, how can he not be defeated." If Zhao Pusheng had lived, I would have been a prisoner a long time ago! ”

Everyone also nodded, and several generals opened their mouths to praise.

Xiang Yu also nodded, but he was even more disdainful in his heart.

How many generals did your Lao Zhu kill and how many Great Walls were destroyed, but the Yuan Dynasty did not come in, and the Ming Dynasty was still as stable as Mount Tai.

Liu Bowen opened his mouth and said: "The lord has ten victories, and Chen Youliang has ten defeats. Chen Youliang liked fame, took the lead in becoming the emperor, and became the target of the Yuan army; The lord is low-key, and now he is only the Duke of Wu, not the king! This is the first win! ”

"Within Chen Youliang, there are many factions and cannot work together; But the lord is united internally, and the soldiers are united! This is the second win! ”

"Chen Youliang is politically relaxed and cannot deter his subordinates; The lord is fierce, the country is rigorous, the upper and lower systems are clear, and the people dare not slack off! This is the third win! ”

"Chen Youliang is magnanimous on the surface, but he is more jealous in his heart, and he uses people more, and only reuses relatives and children; And the lord is not suspicious, as long as he is talented, he will boldly use him, regardless of relatives and distance, this is the fourth victory. ”

"Chen Youliang has a lot of plans, but the execution is not good, and the failure is in the implementation; And the lord has a plan, he immediately executes it, and the execution ability is strong, this is the fifth victory!"

"Chen Youliang is hypocritical and likes to talk empty words; And the Lord treats people with all his heart, does things sincerely, does not do vain and good-looking things, but treats meritorious people never stingy, this is the sixth victory! ”

When Chen Youliang sees a hungry and cold person, he will show his sympathy and concern, but he can't consider what he can't see, it's just a woman's kindness; Although the lord sometimes ignores the small things in front of him, but in the big things, he can help the four seas, give the grace, and think carefully, this is the seventh victory! ”

"Chen Youliang's ministers are vying for power, and slander is everywhere to confuse the public; And the main public avenue dominates his subordinates, and even the slanderous words that moisturize things like water and are silent will not work, this is the eighth article! ”

"Chen Youliang can't tell right from wrong, and whoever is right will be rewarded with courtesy, and whoever is wrong will be punished according to law, this is Article 9, Wen Sheng."

"Chen Youliang likes to bluff, and he can't use the essentials; And the lord can win more with less, and use his soldiers like a god, our army trusts you, and the enemy fears you, this is the tenth,"

"The lord has these ten victories, and there is nothing difficult for him to defeat Chen Youliang."

Liu Bowen gushed endlessly.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened and couldn't help laughing.

Xiang Yu was speechless when he listened, Liu Ji, you are copying homework.

The others listened and scolded shamelessly.

……

After a long time, the crowd retreated.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map, conceived the terrain, and thought about the next combat policy.

"Father-in-law, what's next?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

Xiang Yu said; "The defense of the north is the mainstay, and some territory in Jiangbei can be appropriately ceded to Zhang Shicheng; In the east, Zhang Shicheng was mainly defended; As for the offensive from the west! Expand recruitment, expand the number of troops, and the victory or defeat is just a few years away. Victory, everything is easy to say; Failed, nothing to say! ”

"Good!" Zhu Yuanzhang said: "What else! ”

"Focus on the defense of Nanchang, that is, Hongdu; There is also a key defense of Anqing, if Anqing falls, Yingtian will inevitably not be protected. Last time, Chen Youliang was careless and lost Anqing. Next time, we may not be careless, we can't expect luck to be good all the time, and we can't expect the enemy to make mistakes again! ”

"The next time he makes a move, Chen Youliang will inevitably be cautious, step by step, constantly coercing Jinling, and giving up his rashness. At that time, it will be the moment of fighting consumption, compared to endurance, the so-called conspiracy, surprise attack, etc., will not be too useful! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent.

Don't look at it, at the celebration just now, what he said was high-spirited, and Chen Youliang was belittled as worthless. It seems that stretching out a finger and blowing a breath can destroy Chen Youliang.

But that's just to be inspiring.

In this battle, Chen Youliang lost a lot of territory, and the army suffered more than 80,000 casualties, and Zhu Yuanzhang also lost more than 40,000.

In terms of battle losses, this battle was a great victory.

However, he could not afford such a victory.

If he wins such a battle three or five times in a row, he will die of exhaustion of his forces and financial resources.

After a year of repair at most, Chen Youliang will lead the army south, attack Jinling, abandon the plot, and rely on the huge strength to push sideways.

At that time, the northern front was mainly retreated, and some areas were ceded to Zhang Shicheng; On the eastern front, the eastern part of Zhejiang is also mainly defensive.

Concentrate the main force and face off against Chen Youliang!

In this war, it is necessary to focus on two strategic points, one is Anqing and the other is Hongdu.

Anqing is bordered by mountains in the north, the Yangtze River in the south, and the lake (river) in the east and west, and is located at the bend of the Yangtze River, the water flow is relatively turbulent, and no direction is flat and open, no matter which direction to attack Anqing, it is relatively difficult, so the strategic position of Anqing is very important.

Secondly, among the riverside cities in the Anhui section, only Anqing is located on the north bank, and the others are basically located on the south bank, and there is no danger to defend.

Taiping is close to Nanjing, and although the terrain of Chizhou is also relatively dangerous, the urban area is relatively far from the main road of the Yangtze River.

The water surface of the Anqing section is relatively narrow, and it can barely block the river.

And downstream, as the water surface becomes wider and wider, it is simply difficult to block the river, and if there is no water army to block the river, the ships can be unimpeded on the river.

Once Chen Youliang takes Anqing, he can transport troops from the water and attack various cities along the river.

If Anqing misses, Zhu Yuanzhang will be completely finished!

In the case of the loss of Anqing, it is God to be able to keep Ying Tianfu, which is simply blessed by God.

The last victory was mainly due to Chen Youliang's carelessness.

can't be expected that this time Chen Youliang is still careless.

As for Hongdu (i.e. Nanchang), it is also very important.

Nanchang City, shrinking south of the Yangtze River, controls the two wings of the Yangtze River, and threatens Wuhan and Nanjing from the east and west wings respectively.

In the outer wing of Nanchang City, it connects Jiujiang and Hukou.

Jiujiang, in the hands of Chen Youliang; Hukou, in the hands of Zhu Yuanzhang.

The west wing of Jiujiang is more advantageous than Hukou because of the Lushan Mountain behind it.

Because of the slightly flat terrain, the strategic value of the back wing of the lake mouth is slightly inferior to that of Jiujiang.

…………

After the fierce battle, both sides entered a period of repair.

Zhu Yuanzhang is digesting the fruits of victory and is mentally preparing for the next big war; Chen Youliang is licking his wounds, and he is also fighting in arms.

Although he died in the first battle, Zhu Yuanzhang had a slight advantage, but he suffered a lot of losses.

Chen Youliang suffered a large loss, but the foundation still exists, and the combat effectiveness is still strong.

Chen Youliang is still the boss, Zhu Yuanzhang is still the second, and Zhang Shicheng is still the third.

In the year of repair, news came that the king of Ruyang had been assassinated, and Wang Baobao, the righteous son of the king of Ruyang, had ascended the throne.

After more than two years of siege, after paying a huge price, Yidu was breached, and the Red Turban Army inside was completely destroyed.

"This summer, Tian Feng and Wang Shicheng, who had surrendered to the Yuan army, saw the opportunity to stab Chakhan Timur to death on the front line, returned to the ranks of the Red Turban Army, entered Yidu City, and jointly resisted the besieging Yuan army."

Liu Futong quickly sent reinforcements to Shandong. In September, when the reinforcements sent by Liu Futong entered Martian Port, they were blocked by the Yuan general Guan Bao, and the reinforcements were defeated! ”

After the death of his father, Wang Baobao led the army to continue to besiege Yidu, at this time in Yidu City, the Red Turban Army has fallen into a bad situation of being outnumbered and unable to send reinforcements. At this time, a serious locust plague occurred in various parts of Shandong, the crops were almost unharvested, the people were hungry, and the Red Turban Army was short of food. ”

The situation was extremely difficult, but the officers and soldiers of the Red Turban Army still held the city for more than two months, until November 6, the Yuan army broke through Yidu, Tian Feng and Wang Shicheng were killed by the enemy, Chen Yutou and other more than 20 Red Turban Army generals were captured and sent to Dadu, and the rest of the Red Turban Army soldiers died heroically. Then Juzhou was also captured by the Yuan general Guan Bao. At this point, Shandong fell into the hands of the Yuan soldiers. ”

Liu Bowen read the information on the front line.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened, his face pale.

The revolutionary cause fell into a trough, and the Red Turban Army was in the same vein, leaving only him, Ming Yuzhen, and Chen Youliang.

As for Zhang Shicheng and Fang Guozhen, they had already surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty and became the officials of the Yuan Dynasty, betraying the revolutionary cause.

"Come on, I want to sacrifice the heroes of Shandong!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Soon the mourning hall was set up and worship began.

Thinking that Tian Feng and Wang Shicheng were killed by the enemy, Chen Yutou and more than 20 other Red Turban Army generals were captured and sent to Dadu and chopped to death.

Zhu Yuanzhang is a rabbit and a fox, if he is defeated, he will also be tied to the capital of the Yuan Dynasty and be tortured alive.

That's the price of rebellion.

It's either the prince Wandai, or the whole family is dead.
