Chapter Ninety-Seven: The God of War Jiang Yu
Su Chen ordered someone to collect all the household registration and tax records of Xuchang City.
These things are all handed over to Xiao Shi to do, and he manages these for the time being, of course, Su Chen also knows that Xiao Shi is not this material, but the people sent by His Royal Highness King Zhao will not be able to reach Xuchang City in a few days.
After capturing Xuchang City, Su Chen issued eight orders in a row, divided into eight directions, and each sent a team of scouts.
Su Chen wanted to know for the first time, what was the reaction of the imperial court after he captured Xuchang City? What was the reaction of the vassal kings everywhere?
Su Chen didn't expect the news to come back so quickly, he expected that even if he set off that month, it would take a day and a night before the first team of scouts would come back.
Unexpectedly, the scouts who were sent out at night ran back as soon as they finished eating in the morning.
This scout commander was in charge of the northwest direction, and the northwest direction of Xuchang City was the Jing Division.
The imperial court sent troops.
The imperial court dispatched 150,000 troops this time and rushed south to Xuchang, and what was even more suffocating was that it was none other than General Jiang Yu, the famous god of war in the Chuyuan Dynasty!
After Su Chen heard this, he only felt that his head was as if he had topped a mountain.
He immediately began to integrate all the information he had in his hands, wondering if there was also a war between the vassal kings in other places, and whether this imperial court would send troops to other places?
However, as a result, there was no dispute between the vassal kings in various places, and after the war between the king of Zhao and the king of Xuchang, these vassal kings seemed to be dead one by one, and there was no news at all.
Then there is only one, it may be that capturing Xuchang City is to violate the bottom line of the imperial court, the imperial court has already sent people to Xuchang, and the imperial court has really used the real character this time, otherwise it will not send the god of war General Jiang Yu.
What is the prestige of General Jiang Yu? Just look at Song Shide's nervous expression that he couldn't control himself after hearing that Jiang Yu personally led the troops.
Song Shide bowed his hand towards Su Chen and begged: "General, the imperial court must have come for Xuchang this time, and it is General Jiang Yu who leads the troops, why don't we go to the city and leave, anyway, we have already captured a Ye City!" ”
After hearing this, Su Chen raised his head and looked at Song Shide, who was already pale with fright.
"Although the name of the person and the shadow of the tree, it is not unusual for General Jiang Yu to have such a terrifying effect, depending on how you are also the deputy general of the first army! Even you have become this virtue, what should the soldiers below do when they see it? ”
Song Shide took a breath: "The general is not that I deliberately rebelled, but the god of war, General Jiang Yu, is famous all over the world and powerful in the north and south, and he is really not our enemy." ”
"And we broke through Xuchang this time and controlled the only tens of thousands of soldiers left in Xuchang City, we are already lacking in skills, and the court dispatched 150,000 troops or Jiang Yu himself, we will definitely not be able to withstand it!"
Su Chen smiled slightly after hearing this, without any nervousness.
"General Song, don't you want to fight Jiang Yu, the world's number one god of war? Anyway, I really want to see this general, and I also want to know how many ways I still have to go from this general, and at this time he is already a hero, and he has already lived up to the peak of the year, and we may not have the strength to fight. ”
"Has the Xuchang City Gate been repaired? Have you prepared all the food and grass in the city and all the tools and equipment to defend the city? ”
Song Shide said with a bitter face: "Except for the north gate of Xuchang City, the rest are ready, and the north gate of Xuchang City can be repaired at the latest tonight, but the city gate is tall and difficult to build, and if you want to build a new city gate, I am afraid it will take about half a month." ”
"How many days will the soldiers and horses of the imperial court be able to reach Xuchang?" Su Chen looked at the scout.
The scout hurriedly said: "If you go back to the general, the speed of the soldiers and horses of the imperial court is not fast, but after all, Xuchang is not far from the Jingshi, at least it will take about two days to arrive!" ”
Su Chen nodded, it seems that the imperial court is marching so slowly, this is waiting to see the reaction of Jiangnan Dao, if King Zhao sends an order, withdraw the army, and give Xuchang City to the imperial court, then this matter can be stopped.
It's a pity that it took so much effort to defeat Xuchang City and destroy the King of Xuchang, not to mention King Zhao, even Su Chen was reluctant to give up this piece of fat to the imperial court, wouldn't this be a wedding dress for others?
Su Chen can't do this kind of stupid hat thing, Lao Tzu bothered to get the meat in his mouth and let you snatch it?
"Pass my general's order, this matter must not be leaked out, and the soldiers below must not know that Jiang Yu will personally lead the soldiers to attack Xuchang, let the soldiers rest for two days, and I will see Jiang Yu on the battlefield after two days!"
Su Chen is not the only one who quickly grasps the news, King Zhao also arranged his own eyeliner in the imperial court, the moment Jiang Yu led his troops out of the city gate, the carrier pigeon also set off, and at the same time that Su Chen got the news, King Zhao also got the news.
King Zhao's brows tightened.
"I can't imagine that even Jiang Yu's old guy was moved, I really don't know what Chen Zhizhang's guy promised Jiang Yu!"
After hearing this, Zhao Wouji on the side hurriedly said, "Why don't we let Su Chen come back with the troops quickly?" ”
After hearing this, King Zhao pondered for a moment and shook his head.
"Nope! Can't let him come back, this king is very curious about Su Chen's rising star against Jiang Yu, the world-famous god of war, what are the chances of winning, if Jiang Yu lives up to the past, there is no peak strength to defeat, this king will not have to go to great lengths to set up so many backhands! ”
"But it doesn't matter if Su Chen loses, these are also expected by this king! Xuchang is the throat of the Jingshi, the emperor and Chen Zhizhang will not let me get Xuchang City so easily, just give it a try, just give it a try! ”
Zao Wou-Ki frowned on the side.
"If Su Chen takes the initiative to withdraw from the army......"
"No, this king understands him, he is not the kind of person who will retreat when he encounters difficulties, on the contrary, he will be eager to try!"
"The order will be ready for this year's tribute, as long as the defeated soldiers of Xuchang arrive, they will be sent to the imperial court immediately and contributed to the Son of Heaven!"
……
Two days later, the offense and defense changed shape.
The fifteenth army of the imperial court divided into four directions and surrounded the city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Xuchang City.
If Su Chen's 100,000 army can be ranked first in the world, then the 150,000 army led by General Jiang Yu is the strongest army in the world.
The 150,000 troops were neatly arranged and surrounded outside Xuchang City, and the momentum was enough to overwhelm people, and every soldier had a strong murderous and fighting intent in his eyes.
And the gray-haired old general at the head said invincible all over his face.
