Chapter 355: War Clouds

"We are the proud god of war clan, and now our people are still humiliated in the imperial capital, can you agree? When we die one day, our bodies are buried in the soil, and our souls return to our ancestral shrine, in the face of our ancestors, what should I say, you tell us?" Liu Yu had already revealed all the secrets to the public, and the officers who rushed to hear the news also heard the news, and everyone was surprised by the news in front of them. And Liu Fan took Liu Yu's baton and stood on the stage and preached loudly.

"Our ancestors created and protected this empire against all odds. Now that this imperial capital is in jeopardy, what should we do, the robes in the barracks have chosen war for the sake of the empire, because the honor of the empire cannot be lost in the hands of their soldiers. Liu Fan thrust the soul lock gun heavily on the ground, clenched his hands into fists and shouted loudly: "They are not surnamed Liu, nor are they surnamed Ximen, but they know what they are going to do, they are soldiers, and they want to maintain the honor that soldiers should have, so what about us?

"Fight, fight, fight!" This time everyone stood up, Liu Fan's identity made people have a backbone, especially the officers at all levels who rushed to hear the news were trembling with excitement, the grandson of the god of war, the prince of the empire with great military achievements, even had descendants to reincarnate, Liu Fan is a member of the royal family, and even the bloodline of Liu Fan is far purer than the bloodline of the one sitting on the throne, loyalty to Liu Fan is loyalty to the royal family, loyalty to the royal family is Liu Fan, they have enough reasons and enough faith to fight.

"Good. Now the horn of war is still blowing, Zhang Rang, the people who have insulted my god of war have sent two armies to attack us, and our total strength is less than the average of the other party. But we will not be afraid, because I believe in my brother, and even if my brother is fighting alone, his sword will never allow any enemy to pass in front of him. ”

"Glory is not to be defiled, and we will take our glory to our ancestors, brothers, and fight. No matter how many enemies there are. What are we afraid of, we have the god of war lineage, never fear, never afraid of death, brothers follow me, follow my robe brothers, we will fight on the front line, bloody battles to the end, never die!"

"Bloody battle to the end, never to the death! "All the people were mobilized by Liu Fan, and honor is more important than life. What's more, they still have the blood of the noble god of war in their veins, they are natural warmongers, and they are born to be the most haode warriors. As soon as the blood in the bottom of their hearts is stimulated, war is the most haode nourishment for them.

The children of the Liu family all know their inheritance, and each of them has a sense of pride from the bottom of their hearts. And Liu Yu used the power of the patriarch this time to veto Liu Fan's idea of integrating the children of the Liu family into the army, but the children of the Liu family and the children of the Xia family formed an army alone and became a daring army, asking them to be at the forefront of this battle. The honor of the god of war cannot be tarnished, and this time they will wash away the shame imprinted on them with blood.

The formation of the Liu family's death squad was warmly supported by the children of the Liu Xia family. In less than a day, five thousand people had already joined the death squad, which was already the largest Liliang that the Liu family could gather for the two families, and they escaped from the imperial capital, and there were too many dead and wounded. And the training of the death squad Liu Fan was personally handed over to Wang Qian, fortunately, these people are all born warriors, and they all have the appearance of soldiers just by simple training.

Liu Fan also used his time to accompany his family, especially Liu Xiaohuan and Yang Yayue. At night, he guarded He Ying's room. The spies of the four cities of Yangzhou have come out, and there is no news yet, and the Dijing side is still transporting a large amount of grain, grass and ordnance to the Tiger Prison Pass every day, but there has been no movement of the army. Yizhou's navy also only sailed to the sea. The two cities stationed in Lujiang and Chaisang did not continue to advance, and the sailors of the Liu family's army were also on full alert.

"Mother, it's not a way for your body to go on like this, now that Jianye City is safe, you can take Erin out for a walk, with the four girls of Meilan and Zhuju by your side, I can rest assured." Liu Fan pinched Liu Xiaohuan's shoulders and said to Liu Xiaohuan in a serious voice, since Liu Ruxun's death, Liu Xiaohuan's heart knot has never been untied, especially after the miscarriage, a stone has grown in his heart.

"Grandmother, Erin likes to go out to play the most, Uncle Liu Tao doesn't play with me anymore, they only know how to practice martial arts, can grandmother take me out to play?"

Liu Xiaohuan saw Liu Ailin who was blinking her eyes, her face was immediately covered with a happy smile, she hugged Liu Ailin in her arms, and said distressedly: "Okay, good, in a few days, grandmother will take you out to play, buy you delicious food, and then buy you fun food." ”

Liu Fan looked at the happy granddaughter in front of him and wanted to say something, a guard hurriedly walked in, and said something in Liu Fan's ear, Liu Fan's face changed, and he whispered to the guard. Turned to Liu Xiaohuan and said, "Mother, I'll go to the front hall first, there are a few urgent things to deal with." ”

"Well, you go, pay more attention to rest. Liu Xiaohuan didn't forget to say a word to Liu Fan, Liu Fan turned around and said a word of relief, and hurried to the front hall. In the front hall, all the generals had already come, and because of the sudden change in the situation, Dugu Nan, Li Jing and Su Lie, Zhang Hu and Cai Mao were already on the way to hurry back. The sudden change in military situation and the sudden launch of Zhang Rang's army made Yangzhou, which was already very nervous, even more nervous in an instant.

"Is the situation true?" Liu Fan looked at everyone, but there was no fear on everyone's faces, more excitement, the arrival of Zhang Rang's army, a big battle is inevitable, this is a good time for their generation of soldiers to show their skills. Everyone is gearing up to do a big job, waiting for this big battle to come.

"It's true, my lord, it's true this time. Yangzhou's army also showed signs of mobilization, and the forces of Yangzhou City, Lujiang and Chaisang had begun to gather, and there was an army of 200,000 to support Shouchun. Yizhou's navy also began to move, and news came from Yuzhou that Dijing's army was dispatched, and the vanguard was Dijing's Fifth Praetorian Guard Legion, and now the soldiers had arrived at the Tiger Pass. Jia Xu has slowly begun to take charge of setting up Liu Fan's intelligence network, and what he has in his hand is the information he got this time.

Liu Fan looked at the information in his hand with a solemn face, Zhang Rang was obviously ready to solve Liu Fan completely this time. The striker turned out to be the ace of the Fifth Army in Zhang Rang's hand. The garrison of Yangzhou has received the support of Yizhou and already has a certain combat effectiveness, and it is not the previous corps that was defeated in a battle. This time, Liu Fan is facing a battle of life and death.

"Is our army ready?" Liu Fan put down the information in his hand and looked at the officers under his command with a solemn face, Liu Fan can only rely on the two corps of 600,000 troops in his hands now, but the enemy he has to face is hundreds of times. Strategically despise the opponent and tactically attach importance to the opponent, although Liu Fan is confident that he will defeat Zhang Rang's army, but his confidence is not enough to change the gap between the two sides in terms of strength and equipment.

"It's ready, the two divisions of the First Army Corps and the Second Army Corps have now been concentrated in Jian'ancheng, and our Second Army Corps, except for the Zhang Hu Division of Huiji, the remaining three divisions are concentrated in Jianye City. However, General Su Lie of Wucheng was also slightly insufficient. "Wang Jian is responsible for the deployment of the entire force, and Zhang Rang's Praetorian Guard is the big problem, so most of the divisions and regiments with combat effectiveness are concentrated on the front line of Jian'an, and the rest of the corps is in addition to the army of garrison Huiji and Wucheng, and the most effective team is probably the Liu family death army in the hands of Liu Fan.

"My lord, please see, the goal of the army concentrated in Shouchun is obviously to prepare to rush towards Wu Cheng, Wu Cheng is now stuck in the throat of Yangzhou like a fish bone, as long as Wu Cheng is opened, the problem of contact with Yizhou can be solved. And the army assembled in Yangzhou will definitely divide into two routes, one to attack Huiji and pull out our water fortress, and the other to attack Wucheng by land to contain our forces. ”

"After Zhang Rang's troops enter Yizhou, they will definitely take the cavalry as the lead and occupy the powerful terrain of Yuzhou, especially Geyang, and he will definitely send a large army to control it. He must want to burn the flames of war to our Yangzhou territory, so as to slow down the speed and intensity of our blood transfusion. And Geyang has also become the key to the whole campaign, we can occupy Geyang, whether we can block the Praetorian Guard outside Yangzhou, and even affect the entire battle situation. Wang Jian pointed to the map and explained to Liu Fan step by step, Guo Jia put forward opinions from time to time, and the generals also expressed their opinions, and soon the situation of the whole war was relatively clear.

Guo Jia looked at Liu Fan's face and said, "Don't worry, the lord doesn't have to worry, there are General Li and Mr. Wang in Jian'an City to cooperate, I believe that at this moment our army is already on the road to attack Geyang." What we have to do now is to occupy this place, as long as this place is occupied, even if the war burns to Yangzhou, we still have a chance to win. ”

"Yes, my lord, I think it is imperative to solve the affairs of Yangzhou first, after all, compared to the Praetorian Guard, the garrison of Yangzhou is too weak. In addition, we also need a solid rear, Yangzhou City is our most haode choice. ”

"Okay, since that's the case, you guys hurry up and plan a battle, we have to eat Yan Baihu's team first and completely occupy the entire Yangzhou. This time, I must make Zhang make the child look good. Liu Fan looked at the march route map on the map viciously, Zhang asked you to destroy me in Yangzhou, then I will rob you of the whole Yangzhou.
