Chapter 228 Going South to Destroy Chen (Second Update, Ask for Subscription)
After venting, Yang Jian returned to the palace again and confessed his mistake to Queen Dugu, he should not be a junior, and he should not raise an outer room.
Queen Dugu also apologized, saying that she shouldn't kill the little slut, and took the initiative to recruit some beautiful concubines for Yang Jian, but the subtext remained the same, it was okay to raise a concubine, but it was not okay to raise an outer room.
The landlord collected an extra three or five buckets per mu of land, all thinking of taking a concubine, and besides, the emperor.
Sure enough, when a man is rich, he becomes bad, and when a woman becomes bad, he becomes rich.
As soon as men have money, they are easy to float, and some men do become "bad" because they have money, and some people don't even want a wife.
When a woman becomes "bad", it often means that there will be money soon. Through this "badness" to destroy other people's families, and even destroy their own bodies. Soon you will be able to get a lot of money, even if you can't get a big money, you can "support yourself"! It seems that the women who have gone bad are rich!
There are clear cases of these in the palace.
It's like when Emperor Yu Wenyun of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was the crown prince, he was a virtuous and good man; But after becoming the emperor, he also floated and became bad.
Therefore, Queen Dugu is also extremely disgusted with scumbags; For the spoiled wife and the concubine, the concubine is on the throne, and she directly oppresses the wife and is extremely disgusted.
In the eyes of Queen Dugu, a minister is not even a good husband, and he must not be a good courtier.
After apologizing to each other, they got along in harmony again.
Soon after, they were married.
The fiancΓ©e is Lanling Xiao, not long ago the princess of Xiliang, with a prominent family background, excellent appearance, and virtuous personality, which is simply a copy of Queen Dugu.
In other words, Queen Dugu chooses a wife for her son, mainly using herself as a template to choose.
As for the shortcomings, they have not been found for the time being.
After the two met, they got along well.
β¦β¦
In March, Xiang Yu left Chang'an and went to Huaibei.
At the same time, a large number of soldiers and horses were transferred to Huaibei, the army was gathered, and the grain and grass were gathered.
More than 500,000 troops, including the people who transported grain and grass, there were even more than one million, and they were gathered north of the Yangtze River, which was a long process of convergence.
Xiang Yu estimated that it would take at least three years from the plan, to the gathering of food, to the intelligence investigation, to the start of the attack.
It will take three years to complete the preparations.
It took three years to launch a large army attack.
If you are like Fu Jian, you may not have attacked the enemy in a hurry, but you may have fallen apart.
The army is converging, and Xiang Yu is patrolling all over Huaibei, often in various situations.
Gao Ying accompanied her, inspecting the situation in various places and filling in the gaps.
At this moment, he is the commander of the Huaibei Military Region, and Gao Ying is the chief of staff of the Military Region.
"South, what's the situation?"
Xiang Yu asked.
Gao Ying said: "Over the years, we have been constantly harassing and attacking the west, causing the Chen Dynasty army to be exhausted!" β
Xiang Yu asked again: "What are the odds of winning this battle?" β
Gao Ying said: "Naturally, it will win!" β
Xiang Yu said: "It's a pity, I have some sympathy for Chen Shubao, his subordinates don't want to fight, they want to surrender, there are 300,000 troops, but they can't command!" β
Gao Ying sighed: "The people's hearts are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead!" β
Xiang Yu nodded.
It was like Deng Ai destroyed Shu, Deng Ai was killed in Chengdu, and the minister of Shu didn't want to resist, but wanted to surrender.
At the same moment, Minister Chen Guojing's military affairs did not want to resist and wanted to surrender.
It's no wonder that Chen Shubao is obsessed with the beauty of the harem and doesn't want to interfere in the government, because the people's hearts are scattered and the team is not easy to lead. In this case, it is like the Guo Party in 49 years, maybe a regiment of the communist army will defeat an army of the Guo army.
β¦β¦
Knock knock!
Soon after, the Sui Dynasty launched an attack with an army of 500,000 along the Yangtze River.
On other battlefields, one after another was built into a melee.
Xiang Yu led the army, crossed the Yangtze River directly, quarried and landed, and stationed in Taoye Mountain, where he waited for work.
Chen Shubao felt uneasy and sent 30,000 troops to attack.
The Sui army was more than 30,000, mainly 3,000 cavalry and 7,000 infantry; The 30,000 troops of the Chen Dynasty were mostly infantry, and there were few cavalry.
The two sides fought together, and soon after, the Chen army was defeated.
The Sui Dynasty troops crossed the river one after another, and there were as many as 50,000 of them, and they successively occupied the cities on the periphery of Jinling.
Jinling was isolated.
Above the court, Empress Chen wanted to send troops to attack the Sui Dynasty army. But above the court, everyone was silent.
Empress Chen sent a large army again, but failed in another battle.
When Xiang Yu led the army and killed Jinling City, the city gate automatically opened, and many courtiers knelt to greet him.
Xiang Yu sighed and rode into Jinling.
From the beginning of crossing the river to the capture of Jinling City, the time was less than a month.
The battle is over.
Fierce battles, really just two.
But in these two battles, the intensity of the battle was not high at all.
The Sui army came prepared, the army was elite, and the attack power was strong; But the Chen Dynasty hastily recruited soldiers and horses, all of which were a group of rabble.
The Sui army was dominated by cavalry, the Chen Dynasty was dominated by infantry, and the field battle was the mainstay, and if the Chen Dynasty gathered three times the number of troops, it might win at that time.
It's a pity that there are many moments when you don't say one-to-three, even one-to-one can't be done.
In this battle, it is better to fight more and less, to fight the rabble with the elite, to fight the slow with the fast, and to fight the infantry with the cavalry.
There is nothing technical about this battle.
However, Xiang Yu likes it.
The more untechnical the fight, the more I like it.
Ask Han Xin if he prefers a classic battle in which 20,000 troops defeat 100,000, or an ordinary battle in which 200,000 troops annihilate 100,000 troops.
Han Shin must have said that it was the latter.
β¦β¦
When he arrived in the dry well, he pulled out Queen Chen and two concubines.
"It's a pity!"
Xiang Yu sighed.
"What a pity?" Empress Chen asked.
"It's a pity, Chen Ba's previous generation of heroes, but he is a tiger father and a dog!" Xiang Yu said: "The world is finally unified, and we can live in peace!" β
"Someone who comes to guard the palace, protect King Chen, and do not insult the queen, concubine, etc. The whole army shall not be taken captive or killed, and if anyone kills, there shall be no forgiveness for direct killing. β
"Warn all generals to be obedient, if they are disobedient, otherwise they will be killed!"
"Seal the treasury and take over the atlas!"
"Later, register the meritorious soldiers and give rewards!"
Xiang Yu gave the order directly.
In these years, the military discipline of the army is not good, and it is almost the norm to capture cities, directly rob, commit adultery, kill, etc. Many marshals directly encouraged their soldiers to slaughter cities or plunder them to boost morale.
"Yes!"
Gao Ying nodded and began to give orders.
The prison office began to act, and some soldiers were captured and directly caught and killed on the spot.
Three hundred heads were cut off in succession, and demonstrations were made directly inside the city, and finally hung on the city walls, and many soldiers stopped plundering.
Something ridiculous!
Destroying Nan Chen, a continuous battle for a month, with less than 3,000 soldiers killed and wounded.
But in order to strictly enforce military discipline, he directly hacked three hundred to death.
Many soldiers looked at King Jin with respect and awe.
Xiang Yu was very satisfied.
As a marshal, you must love soldiers like sons, but you are not arrogant.
I can only take what I give; If you don't give it, you can't take it.
If you want to take it, just chop off the claws.
Let the emperor command the army, not the army command the emperor. Some people must obey the rules and listen to the commands, or I will start with a few of you.
β¦β¦
At night, order began to be restored in Jinling, and the curfew continued.
Xiang Yu flipped through the atlas and asked the eunuch again, feeling a little complicated.
The treasury of the Chen Dynasty was too rich, and after this battle, it could be said that it made a lot of money.
Chen Houzhu is not mediocre, under his governance, the people in the Jiangnan area have enough food and clothing, and the people are recuperating and recuperating, and the GDP has increased a lot.
As for Zhang Lihua, she is not only a favorite concubine, but also a virtuous queen of the country, at that time, the initiation of the hundred officials was initially handled by the eunuchs Cai Tuo'er and Li Shandu before being sent in, sometimes even Cai and Li forgot the content, but Zhang Lihua was able to answer one by one, and nothing was missed.
Handle all kinds of government affairs in an orderly manner.
can be regarded as a virtuous queen.
It's a pity that the GDP of the Chen Dynasty is very high, but the people can't fight, and the family doesn't want to fight.
At the moment when the Sui army attacked Nanchen, many families chose to be a bystander, or even to lead the way.
Because in the eyes of many families, whoever is the emperor is not the emperor.
Whoever becomes the emperor must also reuse the family.
"It's a pity!"
Xiang Yu sighed slightly.
At this moment, a eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the night is lonely, and the slave maid specially sent a palace maid to warm up Your Majesty!" β
"No need!"
Xiang Yu said directly.
Just busy dealing with government affairs, how to have time to sleep women.
Besides, it is only the capture of Jinling, other areas have not yet been conquered, the war has not ended, and now it is too busy sleeping with women.
The eunuch stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this woman is a little special!" β
Xiang Yu smiled: "What's so special?" β
The eunuch said: "This person is Zhang Lihua, the concubine favored by Emperor Chen!" β
At this moment, a woman walked in, dressed in white, her hair was seven feet long, black and shiny, and the light was recognizable.
The face is like the morning glow, the skin is like snow, the eyes are like autumn water, the eyebrows are compared to the distant mountains, and the brilliance between the looks is dazzling, reflecting the left and right.
At this moment, Zhang Lihua is thirty years old and is already the mother of several children.
"Interesting!"
Xiang Yu said: "This king is busy with government affairs and has no time to pay attention to you, so step down!" β
"Your Highness, the concubine body is willing to serve Your Highness, please ask Your Highness to bypass the concubine, and there are a few children!" Zhang Lihua fell to her knees and begged.
A woman is sometimes just a trophy, but she is also a weapon.
She is already the mother of several children, but she is still very well maintained, with a beautiful face, a graceful figure, and most importantly, the title of Zhang Guifei.
Although there are many women younger and more beautiful than her, there are many people.
But what could be more exciting than sleeping with a concubine of an enemy country.
"No need, concubine retreat!"
Xiang Yu said: "This king will not be difficult for Emperor Chen, nor will it be difficult for the concubine, and there are several princes. The war is over, and the world is at peace! β
Sleeping with the queen, concubine, or princess of the enemy country is nothing to the victor.
But if Xiang Yu really did it, he would leave a bad reputation.
Even if he is in love with a beauty, as long as he opens his mouth, he will have a wealthy family and send beautiful women. Why bother to make a fuss for a Zhang Lihua.
