The 415 decisive battle is coming, and the people of Nanyang are panicking
First of all, the son-in-law is also half a son, and Chen Mo's parents are not alive, so the Du family is his only home.
As long as he still loves Zijin, the Du family will not decline.
Secondly, that is what Chen Mo thinks in his heart.
Du Qingtian didn't believe that Chen Mo didn't want to be the son of heaven at all.
And as long as you think about it, if you overthrow the imperial court later, you will not be able to avoid the struggle for imperial power.
There are hundreds of thousands of Heavenly Divisions at the bottom, and there are more Yin and Yang families to help, and their strength is obviously stronger than that of the Zhenxi Army.
If he wanted Tian'er to inherit, with Tian'er's prestige in the Zhenxi Army, he would not be able to suppress the generals under him at all, and he would eventually be taken away by Chen Mo.
When the day comes, it's time to face each other.
Du Qingtian didn't want to see this scene.
In the end, that is, to set Chen Mo as the heir, which can prevent this from being used by people with intentions to drive a wedge between the Tianshi Army and the Zhenxi Army.
After Zhenxihou finished speaking, Chen Mo immediately resigned, he really didn't want to be the heir.
But Zhenxi Hou has made up his mind.
The big war was coming, and Chen Mo didn't want to make the army unstable, so he could only reluctantly agree, thinking that after finding the spirit realm later, he would just give it to Du Tian.
The heir must have disappeared from the original unstable factor in the army.
Those who want to stand in line will not stand in line indiscriminately, so they secretly make small moves and engage in infighting or something.
The court's divisive plan will also be self-defeating.
Qiao Jia'an and Wu were a little injured, and they also sent two concubines to Du Tian as concubines.
In the future, if Du Tian is not the Son of Heaven, then the reward they get will be much less.
But they also know their own strength, and there is no dog jumping off the wall or anything.
I can only comfort myself in my heart, but fortunately, Qingya is his Chen Mo's woman.
For the sake of Qingya's face, the Qiao family's wealth in the future should not be less.
It was also because of the rumors that Zhenxihou pushed forward the plan.
It was planned to attack the Kyoshi division in three directions.
Chen Mo led the Heavenly Master Army all the way.
Xu Lie, Noke, Nangong Yi, and Deadwood led 100,000 Zhenxi troops along the way.
The rest of the Zhenxi Army was personally led by Zhenxi Hou and took the waterway.
These days, they stopped at Jingshui County, and in addition to specifying specific plans, there were also warships waiting to be transported from all over the country.
At the beginning of October, Chen Mo took 400,000 Tianshi troops from Jingshui County and marched to the city of Wangzhou.
The soldiers from all over the country dispatched by the imperial court gathered in Beijing to wait for the decisive battle, so the defenders in Wangzhou City were scarce, less than 5,000.
was frightened by Chen Moyi, and in less than half a day, Ma Chunsheng, the general who defended Wangzhou City, abandoned the city with the defenders and fled.
On October 10, the Heavenly Division Army arrived in Suzhou.
During the siege of the city, the Jianan guard general in the rear, Chu Qiangsheng of the Chu family, hid the soldiers in fishing boats, attacked for hundreds of miles at night, and wanted to go around to the rear of the Tianshi army and surprise attack the fleet transporting grain and grass, but was discovered by the Zhenxi Hou army who took the waterway, and all of them were captured.
On October 11, Suzhou was broken.
On October 20, the three armies converged under the city of Jianan.
Zhao Zhi, the deputy general of Jianan City, led 1,000 personal soldiers, and 5,000 town soldiers defended the city without surrendering.
Chen Mo took Xu Lie, Ye Yiren, and Dong Kui to sneak into the city at night, and after being discovered by the defenders, he cooperated with the Tianshi army besieging the city, opened the city gate in one fell swoop, and Jianan City was broken.
Most of the 5,000 town soldiers fled, and all the soldiers were killed, even at this time, Zhao Zhi did not surrender, and put the heirs of the brothers and heirs of the guards in front of the city gate, fighting to the last drop of blood, and did not retreat half a step to death.
This made Chen Mo and Zhenxihou both moved.
The court has abandoned them, and he is still so loyal that he will not surrender.
This reminded Chen Mo of the ancient history of his previous life, and there were many people like Zhao Zhi.
Chen Mo did not laugh at his foolishness, but felt admiration, and personally picked a feng shui treasure for Zhao Zhi and buried his party here.
The army rested in Jianan for a few days.
November
At the beginning, they set off again, and on November 5, the soldiers came to Yangchuan.
It's just that to Chen Mo's surprise, Yangchuan is an empty city, and the defenders in the city have long since withdrawn.
Yangchuan is occupied, Nanyang is close at hand, less than 100 miles, if the speed is fast, you can arrive on the same day.
Zhenxi Hou was not in a hurry, and personally wrote a letter of persuasion to surrender, asking Chu Qiangsheng to send it to Nanyang, and asking Chu Jinnan to write a Zen edict to surrender.
Bang!
Nine days of thunder.
There was a heavy rain in the sky, and the rain curtain sprinkled on every street in Nanyang.
The subjects of Nanyang were all panicked.
When the Zhenxi Army was still in Jingshui County, it was thousands of miles away, and I always felt that it was still far away, and I didn't feel anything.
But now it's only been a month, and the other party has hit Yangchuan, and the following is Nanyang.
The Zhenxi army advanced so fast that they were a little scared.
But now it's too late, Nanyang City was blocked by Chu Jinnan's order, no entry or exit, and full martial law.
On the four city gate towers, there are red-coated cannons, and the firearms newly developed by the Fusi and Shenji Battalions in Nanzhen are also full of city towers, covered with oilcloth to prevent the gunpowder from being wet by the rain.
In addition to these, such as gold juice, rolling logs, falling rocks, etc., which were used to deal with the siege soldiers, were also prepared in advance.
Just waiting for the Zhenxi Army to come...
Against the rain curtain, a small warship stopped on the shore, attracting the attention of the sailors stationed at the dock.
"It's this king, the lord of Jianan City, Chu Qiangsheng, who has a letter from the Marquis of Zhenxi in his hand, and wants to meet His Majesty." Chu Qiangsheng got off the boat and said loudly.
The Emperor's Bedchamber.
The night is low, the lights are on, the lights are brilliant, and the palace maids and eunuchs are serving with their heads bowed on the side.
On the table, there are all kinds of dishes, and a palace beauty in a golden hairpin dress is accompanying Chu Jinnan to eat.
The beauty is Zhang Guifei, unlike Xiao Yunxi, who was born in a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, Zhang Guifei's maiden family is only a small family, which makes Zhang Guifei shallow in her knowledge, and the only bit of brain she has is all on the palace fight.
Even if the current situation is urgent, Zhang Guifei is still worried about her son's birthday party.
Kou Dan's slender jade hand was placed on the ivory chopsticks, and Zhang Guifei put a pair of soft and charming eyes on Chu Jinnan's face, and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't keep a face all day long, smile, in a while, it will be the prince's fourth birthday, you have to handle it well."
Chu Jinnan frowned, and said quietly, "What is the concubine going to do?"
"Of course you have to ......" Zhang Guifei said the thoughts in her heart completely, when it came to the fireworks in the sky, the golden bowl in Chu Jinnan's hand slammed on the table, frightening the palace maids and eunuchs next to her, Zhang Guifei's face also changed, and she trembled and said, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong, I still want to ask you what's wrong, don't tell me, you don't know what Zhang Shixin did." Chu Jinnan's eyes were cold.
Seeing Chu Jinnan's cold eyes, Zhang Guifei's delicate body trembled: "Shixin... What's wrong?"
