Chapter 1209: The General Trend

After Zhao Shen and Zu Ti converged in Jiangbei, Zu Ti handed over the vanguard of the Chinese army to Zhao Shen to fight, and he crossed the river into Jiangnan by another way.

Unlike Zhao Shi, who fought guerrillas on light cavalry and went deep into the enemy camp to provoke fire everywhere, the forward general on Zhao Shen's side wanted to take down the city in Wang Dun's hands and entrust it to someone to manage it before he could go further.

It is necessary to have close contact with the Chinese army and the rear army, so he has a separate radio station and improvised generator in his hand, and he can contact Zhao Hanzhang and Zu Ti alone.

It's just that he has a clear fighting style, and he doesn't like to push down steadily, but likes to only attack the fortress land, and fight in a roundabout way, and in turn isolate some officials who are not high in combat power, or forced to defect to Wang Dun, but have no strong will to resist.

When they realize that they are isolated and unable to fight, and that the rear army is approaching, they will raise the city and surrender.

For the rear army, this is simply a gift of heads and military merits, and the rear army is very happy to pick up the city.

Therefore, Zhao Shen has a good relationship with the army, and whenever they need to replenish food, grass, armaments and fighters, they can respond quickly and never delay.

The purpose of Zu Ti is that the casualties of his style of play are not large, and until now, he has only replenished the soldiers once, and most of the soldiers sent down are wounded.

Because of the fast speed of the siege and the erratic route of the army, Wang Dun had lost the support of the people and the mass base was extremely poor, which made him unable to grasp the details of this army for a while.

But he still knows that there is a Zhao family army behind his ass, even if he has decided to give up Jiangnan and move to Guangzhou, he can't allow his authority to be challenged like this.

Moreover, since the Zhao family army crossed the river, he also needed a big battle to boost morale.

Wang Dun released false news for this reason, and signaled that his troops would be defeated from Guangchang County and let them pass, while he led his troops and horses to ambush them on the way from Guangchang to Wuyang.

Zhao Shen was still chattering, but after capturing Guangchang County, he did not tell the fortunes, but sent five scouts to investigate along the way.

The five-way scouts didn't find anything.

Zhao Shen frowned and ordered: "Explore again!" ”

No further investigation revealed anything unusual.

Zhao Shen thought about it, but he still trusted his own judgment more, if there was an ambush on the road...... He stared at the map for a while, and decided to make a little more effort, so he sent Pingxin to take 2,000 people to make a detour to Poyang with great fanfare, while he led the army quietly southeast to Le'an.

Wang Dun didn't ambush anyone, but he was not discouraged, and directly led the army to Poyang to block the attack.

The two sides met on the outskirts of Poyang, and after a fight, Pingxin only had 2,000 people, and he was highly mobile, and he did not need to win the battle, and the order given to him by the general was, "Preserve the maximum combat effectiveness." ”

So after he found that he couldn't beat it, he found an opportunity to withdraw his troops and turned around and ran.

Because they only had 2,000 people here, and before they were huge, Wang Dun suspected that there was an ambush ahead, these 2,000 people were feinting, please enter the urn, so he stopped his subordinates and said: "Poor Kou Mo chase, let's go back to Poyang." ”

The top priority is Nanchang, and Nanchang in Yuzhang County must be attacked so that he can lead the army south

When Pingxin saw that they were not chasing, he quietly followed behind them, and from time to time he appeared to harass them, and as soon as they turned around, he ran.

This made Wang Dun's subordinates even more convinced that Zhao Shen wanted to invite Jun into the urn, but Wang Dun was a little suspicious, turned his head and asked the scout, "Have you detected their army?" ”

The scout said, "When we are with them, we will check the traces of their departure, and the number of earthen stoves should be enough to supply about 40,000 people." ”

Wang Dun's brows furrowed even tighter, and after a while, his face changed, and he shouted, "It's not good, he's making a noise." ”

If they still have more than 40,000 people, how can it be that every time they come to attack them, it is the same group of people?

Sometimes he came to provoke twice a day.

Wang Dun always sent his generals to fight, but he would supervise the battle every time, he had a good memory, and he was very familiar with this rat-like army that popped up from time to time.

"The army is not here, these two thousand people are to attract our attention, they ......" Wang Dun's mind was running rapidly, and he quickly thought of Yuhan County, gritted his teeth and said: "They should have gone to Le'an, from Le'an to Yu Khan, and then from Yu Khan to Nanchang......"

That's a lot closer, and it just happens to avoid his sphere of influence.

The county magistrate of Le'an County did not surrender to Wang Dun, but tore up the letter written by Wang Dun, and then publicly reported to King Langya, saying that Wang Dun was a rebellious minister and thief.

Wang Dun's attention was on Jiankang at that time, thinking that as long as he laid down Jiankang, it would be useless to oppose these small county orders, so he ignored these small county orders that opposed him.

Unexpectedly, the letting go at that time should be today.

Wang Dun immediately left a force to block the 2,000 men, and ordered the army to advance as fast as possible, and to reach Nanchang within two days.

At this time, Zhao Shen had already passed through Le'an and Poyang with the help of the county commander of Le'an County, and reached Yuhan, where part of Dai Yuan's army was stationed, and he could pass through to Nanchang from here.

But at this time, Zhao Shen was no longer in a hurry, he went to Nanchang outside the city in front of Wang Dun, and when the time came, he and Dai Jiajun went to Nanchang from Yu Khan to make a bag, which was to invite you into the urn.

Zu Ti was very satisfied when he received Zhao Shen's telegram, and immediately ordered the army still remaining in Jiangbei to cross the river, and then divided into three routes, two to Jiangdong to pursue Wang Dun's main force, and one way to recover the city occupied by Wang Dun in Jiangnan with Zhao Ju, Mi Ce and Wang Yifeng.

The Sixth Route Army shuttled through the south of the Yangtze River and Jiangdong, captured and took over the cities that Zhao Shen did not capture, and connected them together.

Zu Ti was very strong, not only in the south of the Yangtze River, but also in the area around Wu County, which was controlled by the local gate lord clan.

The garrisons in these places mostly obeyed the Zhou clan, and the current head of the Zhou clan was called Zhou Xi.

His grandfather and father were famous ministers of Wu State, his father Zhou Wu died after the Jin Dynasty, the official to the imperial history of Zhongcheng, he was also in Jiankang at this time, after the Zhao army entered the city, he has been forced to stay in the city.

Zu Ti asked him to escort the Langya Wang's family into Beijing.

Zhou Xi was cautious and knew that this matter was not easy to refuse, so he agreed.

Before leaving, he was going to write a letter to his family.

Zu Ti readily agreed.

Zhou Xi's letter was sent back to Yixing, and the Zhou Jiajun, who had been ignoring the Wang Dun army that had been crossing the border, suddenly attacked Wang Dun's army, blocking their way, and Zhao Shi quickly caught up and left a message for the rear army.

The two rear armies quickly caught up.

When Zhou Xi's letter was sent out, and when he crossed the river with the Langya Wang family and Wang Dao, he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at the Yangtze River water rolling away.

The division and integration of the world seems to be influenced by the way of heaven, but I don't know, is the future of him and the Zhou family also destined by fate?

After seeing the orderly crossing of the river by Zhao Jiajun, the people inside and outside Jiankang City would be curious to see the excitement and discuss this matter enthusiastically, but there was no disgust and disgust in his demeanor.

So when Zu Ti "asked" him to stay in Jiankang City to protect King Langya against Wang Dun's assassins, he didn't think about escaping, but stayed behind.

Good night
