After the Chen family caravan in Changsha County got rid of the goods they were transporting, they had been waiting for the snowflake salt from the Xia Salt Shop.

The snowflake salt of Xia's salt shop is white, delicate as fine sand, and its quality is favored by Lingnan and the surrounding caravans from Lingnan.

Therefore, in the past month or so, the caravan selling snowflake salt in Lingnan has suddenly increased, and the huge sales volume has made Xia Jing's salt pan and the salt pan of Qianwang's mansion sell out the little inventory accumulated in the past few months.

Because of this, the Chen family caravan had to stay in Lingnan and wait for the goods.

This period of time provided an opportunity for Chen Yongtian to buy shops in the north of the city.

He entrusted Chang Chong to help find a seller, and this Chang Chong was also a reliable person, and he helped him find a seller within three days, which made Chen Yongtian overjoyed.

After completing the transfer procedures from Chengbei Huaxia Real Estate Commercial Bank, the three parties were very satisfied.

The Li family, who transferred the shop, is an ordinary person with small assets in Lingnan, and he bought this shop because the whole family had gathered the money, but later had to sell the shop to alleviate the family's predicament due to difficulties encountered by the family.

No, it just happened that Chen Yongtian picked up a ready-made shop.

The Li family said goodbye to Chen Yongtian with the silver in hand, and then went home happily, this time they spent a down payment of 100 taels of silver to buy a shop, and they made a net profit of 80 taels in less than two months.

The eighty taels of money earned by the elderly in the family for medical treatment are enough, and the remaining one hundred taels can still be saved for emergencies.

Chen Yongtian took out a purse and handed it to Chang Chong, "This time it can be done, it all depends on you running before and after, this is your hard work, take it!" ”

Chang Chong glanced at the Li family who had gone away, and took it with a smile, "Thank you, Master Chen, for the reward!" ”

After a few days of contact, Chang Chong already knew Chen Yongtian's name, and the two became familiar with each other, and there might be a possibility of cooperation in the future.

"This is what you deserve, if you hear about anyone who has a shop transfer, remember to come and tell me, if it works out, there will still be a reward." Chen Yongtian was in a good mood to be able to buy this shop today, so he gave a lot of rewards.

Chang Chong looked at him in surprise, "Master Chen still wants to buy a shop?" ”

When Chen Yongtian heard what he said, the smile on his face deepened, "Yes, the shops in the north of the city do not refuse, the more the merrier!" ”

Chang Chong threw away the purse in his hand and nodded clearly, "Okay, the little one knows, if there are any shops that want to transfer, I will notify you." ”

Chen Yongtian said a word of please, and got into the carriage.

Waiting for the carriage to leave, Chang Chong couldn't wait to open the purse, and inside was four silver ingots of five taels, which was really the same as the one he had weighed just now.

This reward is equivalent to his income from working in a teahouse for five or six years, and it is really easy to earn this money as a middle-aged person.

"I just hope that there will be a few more such employers, and he will almost be able to earn money for marrying a daughter-in-law after a few jobs."

Chang Chong's mother left home from Chang Chong, and she has been waiting for her son to come home at the door of her house.

finally saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the alley, so she didn't care about anything, and trotted to Chang Chong, "Good son, has it happened?" ”

Chang Chong squinted his eyes, raised his chin, and signaled that there was something to go home about.

Chang Chongniang gave him an understanding look, and immediately turned around and walked home.

When he got home, Chang Chong took out fifteen taels of silver, "It's done, I have twenty taels of income from this remuneration, I will keep five taels of private money for myself, and the rest will be all for you." ”

Chang Chongniang took the purse and scolded with a smile: "Five taels is equivalent to more than a year's salary for you, why did you pretend to be a gentleman after making some money?" Also a private room of five taels, you go to see your peers, who has a private house of five taels of silver? ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and snatched the five taels of silver that Chang Chong hid in her arms, "You are not young, you have already reached the age of marriage, save more money, what will you give your daughter-in-law when the time comes?" ”

Chang Chong's face was ugly, and he finally pulled out five taels, and was snatched away again.

The silver in his hand was snatched away, and he was a little unwilling, so he asked, "Mother, how can you save some private room for me?" ”

Naturally, the mother would not be asked by her son, she glanced at her son, and said mercilessly: "As long as you earn me another twenty taels, I will leave five taels for you as a private room, and the time limit is one month." ”

As she spoke, she smugly asked, "What?" Can it be done? ”

Chang Chong was distressed, but when he heard this, he was overjoyed: "Is this true? ”

"Seriously!"

"Okay, you can use your gossip ability again, and then go and inquire who has a shop for sale, and we will make another order while the iron is hot!"

Chang Chong believes that this time his mother should be able to keep her word.

Besides, Li Chengmu led his troops to the border with the large army of the palace, and the soldiers and horses attacking Annan had already retreated.

All that remains is ruins and devastation, and the dilapidated villages and towns are not inhabited.

As for the people who were killed by the enemy, they had already been gathered and buried by the soldiers of the guard long before they came.

"Annan is now amassing 50,000 troops in Liangshan, and it is this army that has invaded our border this time, and the leader will be Bian Yuehong, who is more famous in Annan."

Shi Mingbi, the chief soldier of Siling, followed behind Li Chengmu and Xiang Rongrang and briefed them on the current situation on the border.

Although Shi Mingbi and Xiang Rongrang are both general soldiers, there is also a distinction between the general soldiers, and the status and power of the chief soldiers directly under the command of the prince is definitely higher than that of the local general soldiers, such as the difference between the descendants and the collateral lines.

Among the group, Shi Mingbi was obviously led by Xiang Rongrang.

Shi Rongrang listened to his words, and Zhengse said to everyone: "The soldiers have been on the road for three days to rest for three days, and after three days, everyone will discuss before the war, and then everyone will make suggestions to see how the next war will be arranged?" ”

"Yes!"

Everyone responded.

Shi Rongrang then said to Shi Mingbi: "In the past few days, you should first spread the night first, collect as much information as possible, and then the deliberations will not be blackened." ”

"Yes!" Shi Mingbi had to respond when he heard this, he didn't collect the night in his hand, and he lost a lot of money in this war, and he originally thought that he would be able to shake off the soldiers and horses of the palace when he arrived.

It's just that I didn't expect that the chief soldiers under the command of this prince caught his wool.

There are at least 10,000 troops under the general army, he is not the general soldier favored by the court or the palace, and the current strength under his command is a little more than 10,000, which cannot be compared with the general army in front of this prince.

Three days later, the latest news came from Yebu that there were only 20,000 soldiers in Liangshan in Annam, led by Bian Yuehong.

The inset of 15,000 troops, led by Bian Yuehong's right-hand men, and 20,000 horses stationed in the city on the other side, the three sides of the horses formed a triangle of mutual support, no matter which side was attacked by the enemy, the other two sides of the horses could quickly gallop to the aid of one of them.

Xiang Rongrang was very surprised when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Shi Mingbi, "The news I got this time seems to be obviously different from what you said three days ago." ”

Listening to the news is passive and not active, it can be seen that the defeat is not unjust!

Shi Mingbi's face was scornful, scratched his nose, and glanced at everyone: "It may be that Bian Yuehong's soldiers and horses have moved in the past three days. ”

Xiang Rongrang didn't buy his account, and snorted coldly: "You are in such a fluke mood, one day you will pay the price!" ”

This is very serious, but he is right, if Shi Mingbi's luck psychology is not corrected, one day he will die on his own rightful thoughts.

Shi Mingbi sneered on his face, and he didn't dare to say anything this time.

Xiang Rongrang saw that he was no longer quibbling, so he turned his head to look at Li Chengmu, who was whispering to Long Yutian.

His tone couldn't help but soften a lot, "What do you think about the current situation?" ”

Li Chengmu heard Xiang Rongrang's question, and did not immediately answer his words, so he let the night not be closed before probing.

Then he turned his head and asked Li Chengzhan: "Second brother, what about you?" What is a good strategy for the current situation? ”

When Li Chengzhan heard the question, he secretly gritted his teeth, Xiao Wu didn't know that he didn't know how to learn, and he didn't know anything about marching and fighting, didn't he just want him to lose face in front of everyone when he asked him at this time?

He sighed, Xiao Wu became more and more black and treacherous, and this opening made him unable to advance or retreat.

Facing everyone's gaze, Li Chengzhan could only kick the question to Xiang Rongrang, "When I go on the expedition, I will listen to the general army for all military commands, what he says to do, we will do it!" ”

Xiang Rongrang: "."

The question seemed to have been thrown out of him to ask them, how did they throw it at him in turn?

He turned his head to look at Long Yutian, "Mr. calls himself Sai Zhuge Ge, what is the trick for this?" ”

Long Yutian's expression was serious, and he didn't shirk it, and immediately said: "Judging from the map, they don't seem to be far away, leaning on each other in a triangular posture, but as long as we calculate properly, we can surround one city and consume the troops of two cities." ”

Xiang Rongrang's eyes lit up suddenly, "What do you say, sir?" ”

"We need to be cautious about the situation now, coming from afar, the physical strength of the soldiers will not recover so quickly, although the strength of our two sides is equal, but in the case of exhaustion, the combat strength may only be less than forty percent,"

Speaking of this, Long Yutian frowned, "However, the enemy is waiting for work, and he will be superior to us in terms of physical strength and energy. ”

Shi Mingbi nodded: "What Mr. said is deafening, we should consider how to do a good job of logistics." ”

Long Yutian listened to his words, his eyes rolled around, and when he saw that everyone was listening carefully, he said: "Actually, my strategy is very simple, that is, to besiege the city and send reinforcements, our troops are divided into three routes, one of which is surrounded by soldiers and horses, and the situation of besieging Jizhou is made.

When they sent people to Liangshan to ask for help, and Liangshan led troops to help, we ambushed them halfway and eliminated them. The last team held the other direction to avoid being attacked by the enemy, of course, if Bian Yuan also came to help, it would not be polite, and it would be eliminated if it could be eliminated. ”

Xiang Rongrang listened to this strategy and turned his head to look at the others, obviously wanting to see what other people had to say?

Li Chengzhan was out on the expedition, and his whole mental state was good, and he had lost the laziness he had when he was in the palace, and when he saw the boss looking over, he immediately agreed: "This group of barbarians in Annan is not our opponent at all, since Xiang Zongbing has an idea, what should he do." ”

"That's right, the people of Annan don't have to worry, they will only bully the soft and fear the hard, seeing that this invasion has attracted the attention of the palace, they immediately coaxed, and they are about to become immortals in the territory." Li Chengyi echoed.

Xiang Rongrang turned his head to look at the third master, Li Chengli, and the fifth master, Li Chengmu, and the two had no opinion on this operation.

The strategy against the enemy was basically settled.

"Everyone go back and prepare well, one day to prepare, the day after tomorrow we will lead the army into Annam to recapture what belongs to us."

The next day, the army advanced into the territory of Annam, and two days later reached the outside of the city.

The soldiers of Annam at the head of the city saw a large crowd of people surrounding, and they were so frightened that they almost rolled off the wall.

And the soldiers outside the city are both excited and nervous, they were only bullied before, this time the soldiers and horses of the Yu Dynasty took the initiative to attack Annam, which is really to stimulate morale.

They can finally vent their evil anger, and it is still good to come and bring disaster to the enemy country.

Wait for the meeting to grab more supplies and return to the camp.

The city walls of Annan are imitations of the city walls of the Yu Dynasty, and the imitation is an imitation, which is a little similar, but it is not as strong and tall as the city wall of the Yu Dynasty.

Xiang Rongrang ordered artillery bombardment to prevent the soldiers and horses of the other two cities from galloping to help, and the siege of the city here must be quickly resolved, and there must not be a situation where the siege of one city is ten days and a half months.

"Boom, boom!"

The sound of artillery rang out, heralding the beginning of the battle for the capture of the city.

The defenders of Annam at the head of the city were in chaos, and they wanted to resist and kill the enemy, but the enemy was too far away from the city wall, so they couldn't help each other for a while.

And the other party's artillery has been bombarding their walls, and if this continues, then their walls may bombard one big hole after another.

The defenders of Annam on the city wall were panicked, it's over, it's over, it's over this time.

They didn't expect that the soldiers and horses of the Dayu Dynasty would break through the border defense line, and the soldiers were pointing at the state.

The cannonball smashed on the city wall, although it could cause damage to the city wall, but it was too slow.

Xiang Rongrang pointed directly at the gate of the city of Zhuzhou and ordered the artillery: "The artillery will aim at the city gate and bomb with all your might!" ”

When the artillery heard the command, the muzzle adjustment was all aimed at the city gate, and dozens of shells flew towards the city gate, which was incomparably powerful!

The cannonballs exploded, and the defenders standing on the walls felt the shaking under their feet.

In this case, how can they fight back?

The generals did not teach them!

The defenders on the city wall were dumbfounded, praying in their hearts that the city gate would be stronger and not be blown open so easily.

"The army of the Dayu court is so well equipped now? A team of tens of thousands of people is equipped with dozens of artillery pieces, which makes people not alive? ”

"And they seem to be much more powerful than we've ever seen."

"The messenger who asked for help from the commander of the border has been dispatched, hoping that we can hold out until the reinforcements arrive."

"Dreaming, according to this offensive, we don't know how long we can hold out, and we don't know how many days will be before the reinforcements of the border marshal!"

"Don't blow up the gates, if they do, we'll all be finished! If you knew this, you shouldn't have provoked the border of the Yu Dynasty! ”

It's just that the wishes are beautiful, and the reality is cruel.

Two rounds of artillery bombardment fell, the city gate was breached, and under the cover of artillery bombardment of the city wall, the cavalry and infantry entered the city gate.

The soldiers and horses of Annan defending the city were defeated, and they were all in a hurry to flee for their lives, and even the formation of the army was gone, so how could the routed army resist the soldiers and horses of the palace?

Li Chengmu rushed into the city gate with his firearms team on horseback, and shot when he saw the defenders.
