Chapter 150 The army surrounds Jiankang
On September 20, the eighth year of Kaihuang, Yang Su, the Duke of Qinghe, Liu Renen, the governor of Jingzhou, and others received Yang Guang's secret orders and led various troops, totaling 510,000 yuan, to officially launch a long-prepared battle to destroy Chen in Yangzhou.
When news of the mysterious death of Yangzhou Governor Xiao Yan spreading in Yangzhou, Li Yuan, Yu Wenhua, Wu Jianzhang and others led tens of thousands of people across the river to surround Yangzhou, but the outside world thought that Su Chen personally led the army to attack Yangzhou.
People in Yangzhou were panicked. Although the soldiers in the city swore to defend the city to the death, some people were privately trying to win over the city and planned to open the city and surrender.
The border states on the Southern Chen border were also caught off guard by the Sui Dynasty, which suddenly launched an attack, and lost tens of thousands of soldiers. The flags at the gates of many cities and counties in the border were replaced with the Sui Dynasty military flags.
After receiving the news, the court and the country were in great shock. Chen Shubao immediately realized something was wrong and immediately ordered the general of the guards, Fan Yi, the leader of the Central Army, Lu Guangda, to be the governor. He also sent Fan Meng, the governor of Southern Yuzhou, to lead the navy to defend Baixia and resist the Sui army on the ** side; Gao Wen, the attendant of the scattered cavalry, led his troops to guard Nanyuzhou.
But it was too late at this time.
On October 11 of the same year, the Sui army broke through the Yangtze River defense line and actively promoted it. On the sixth day of the lunar month, He Ruobi's army captured Jingkou and captured Huang Ke, the governor of Southern Xuzhou. More than 6,000 people were captured, all of which were released with preferential treatment. He Ruobi then entered Qu'a with a unit to prevent the three Wu Chen army from reinforcement, and led the main force to advance westward. On the sixth day of Yangzhou being besieged, four generals in the city suddenly raised their troops and opened the city gate. Li Yuan and others immediately ordered people to attack the city, and Yangzhou City was destroyed without attacking.
Then, Li Yuan and others immediately sent troops to Jiankang to meet Su Chen, who had already crossed the river to confront the general Lu Guangda of Nanchen.
Su Chen agreed with Wang Shao's suggestion and ordered Yang Jun to lead the army to continue attacking south until Jiangxia, when he met Chen general Zhou Fashang and others, and confronted them.
"Your Highness, He Ruobi's army has occupied Zhongshan, Yu Wenhua and his troops have also entered Shitou. Our army has formed a siege against Southern Chen. Not only that, the governor of Qizhou, Wang Shiji's army, attacked Qikou from Qichun, defeated Chen's general Ji Tian; the Yanrong Navy, the general manager of Qingzhou, went south from the East China Sea (now southwest of Lianyungang, Jiangsu) to Taihu Lake. Now all the main forces in Southern Chen are in Jiankang." Wang Shao said calmly to Su Chen.
At this time, Su Chen's face was a little tired, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit. He held the Taidao, who was named "Greedy Lang" by him, with his right hand.
After hearing Wang Shao's report, Su Chen smiled and said, "I thought I would fight for many months, but I didn't expect that two-thirds of the territory of Nanchen had been attacked, and Nanchen was also surrounded by our army."
If you wear armor, you will be a soldier. Soldiers must look like a soldier. If you continue to do this, take off your clothes and go back, let alone your soldiers.
A month ago, Su Chen led a large army and followed Han Qinhu and Wang Shao's plan to attack a small town a hundred miles away from Jiankang, and found that the soldiers in the army implemented a three-light policy in the town. Su Chen was furious and immediately summoned all the soldiers together and scolded them. The most common saying was that sentence. Su Chen, who violated the military rules, fought three hundred soldiers, two of them died, and the rest were still lying on the bed. Since then, no one in the army dared to violate the military rules because they knew that they were joking with them on weekdays, but they had a bottom line.
In order to set an example, Su Chen did not wear casual robes around for a day, but put on his armor. Although it made him feel uncomfortable at first, he had a long time, especially after several times when he went to the battlefield, he found that this thing could save his life. No matter what it was, as long as it could save his life, it was a good thing. So Su Chen immediately ordered the quarantine officer to create a set for Xiong Kuohai and the others.
Only Luo Shixin and Su Chen gave him the heavy armor developed by Mo Yan and the others.
As long as Luo Shixin was wearing heavy armor, he would be like a giant beast in the wilderness. He even held a pole in his hand to create a large iron spear weighing 460 kilograms. He could all walks of corpses everywhere, but he also injured many generals on his side. As a result, as long as Luo Shixin went to the battlefield within a hundred steps, no one except Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu dared to get close, so he won the title of "Big Beast".
Xiong Kuohai showed his skills in this battle. There were not tens of thousands or thousands of undead under the mature copper stick in his hand. His voice was like a huge thunder. Even if he was on the battlefield, he could hear clearly a hundred meters away. Moreover, when he was angry, his face turned from yellow to purple, looking like the four heavenly kings. In addition, Su Chen sighed once and said, "I am awesome," and he was awarded the title of "Purple-faced Heavenly King".
Yuwen Chengdu's hand was filled with a winged gold trunk, and sat down on the dragon and five-spotted horses and ten thousand troops, which made all the generals of Nanchen frightened. When Su Chen crossed the river eastward, Nanchen's general Lu Guangda led his army to resist. At that time, Su Chen was in a wheelchair, so Lu Guangda laughed. Yuwen Chengdu and Li Yuanba were furious. The two of them rode their horses to kill, and the Nanchen army was in chaos for a while. If Su Chen had not seen the large number of Nanchen soldiers, he was afraid that something would happen to the two and ordered them to come back, otherwise Lu Guangda would have died long ago. Lu Guangda was also shocked by Yuwen Chengdu's killing god. Since then, Yuwen Chengdu was on the battlefield like a god of killing. However, Yuwen Chengdu didn't know if it was because of malnutrition since childhood, which led to his face being pale forever, so people were nicknamed "Baifang Killing God".
There is no need to say more about Li Yuanba. As long as he participated in the war, all the local generals were smashed into minced meat. Lu Guangda was hit into minced meat by Li Yuanba with a hammer. Moreover, the pair of drum-beating golden hammers in his hand were regarded as killing machines by the soldiers of Nanchen. When they saw a pair of golden hammers appear on the battlefield, they immediately turned their butts and ran away. But it was like Li Yuanba would go crazy from time to time, and he was young, so he was called "Little Crazy Lion" and that boy even made Li Yuanba become the source of Xiong Kuohai and others laugh at him.
As for Master Shang and Sun Ming, they seemed a little calmer, because no matter where they were, as long as Su Chen appeared, they would definitely appear. The only military achievements were that they were suddenly attacked by Nan Chen when crossing the river. Su Chen happened to be flirting on the bedside at that time, but fell into the river and captured by Nan Chen soldiers. The two immediately broke into the ship with Su Chen in the pass and rescued Su Chen.
In the past two months, there are two more days when they are famous. They lead an army of 30,000 people together, bypassing Jiankang and attacking the south. The troops under their command are well-trained, one by one, and one by three. The two of them are constantly plotting, and the generals of the Southern Chen who are attacking each time are caught off guard. These two are the "big sword" Zhang Xutuo and the "ape" Hou Junji.
But when it comes to these people, what reminds everyone of their heroic figures, but their immediate boss, Su Chen.
Because Su Chen's injuries were really good only one and a half months ago, he thought he would go to the battlefield less often. However, every time he appeared, he rushed into the army of Nanchen alone, and he was very happy to kill. And many times, he didn't know if he was killed by the red eye, and he wanted to kill Sun Ming and Master Shang. Fortunately, even though he woke up, even so, there were not a few soldiers who were injured in his hands. In this way, someone called him "Crazy King" privately.
When he heard this title, Su Chen immediately slapped and cursed: "I am obviously a good man, why did I become a madman? After the message comes out, I will call me a good man." Of course, this time it happened after Su Chen drank, so our Xiao Su was called a "good man" by someone.
Afterwards, Su Chen regretted it even more when he woke up, but he had already let it go. In addition, he always paid attention to the words and said things, so he had to let it go. Gradually, Su Chen accepted this title. After all, there were too few good men, and being called a good man reflects uniqueness.
Of course, those censors still impeached him with these things, but good news came to Yang Jian every day. Yang Jian had no time to care about these things, let alone the impeachment was the dirty words his son said after getting drunk, so how could he deal with it?
However, this little story made many people in the Sui Dynasty say it as a joke after the meal, but it was not a joke to Su Chen but a respect.
"Your Highness, the foreshadowings in the past are probably going to work." At this time, Gao Yang said with a smile.
When Su Chen heard this, he smiled and said, "Yes, I thought about those crimes of Chen Shubao, but I thought about it so hard."
Two months ago, Su Chen fooled Xiao Mohe and wrote down more than a dozen crimes that Chen Shubao had in vain. Afterwards, he planned to tell the world about it, but was stopped by Wang Shao and others, asking the original not to be known to everyone in the world, and just to announce the contents in it.
Then when Gao Yang returned from Chang'an and rushed to Su Chen's side, he heard Su Chen tell the matter back and forth, and immediately sent someone to take Xiao Maha to the military camp and told Su Chen the plan he had thought of. Su Chen immediately lamented that he only thought of signing, and never thought that real people were easier to believe than signatures.
Now that Su Chen's army surrounded Jiankang, it was time to use Xiao Maha.
"Your Highness now refers to He Ruobi's army, and we can launch the final attack." Li Yuan suddenly said.
Su Chen nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I just don't know when it will come?"
At this time, Han Qinhu walked in and said, "Your Highness, He Ruobi is here, but..."
The first volume of the article is almost done. I have made too many preparations in the early stage and will not be able to do so in the future. I hope everyone will continue to support it. Finally, I shouted twice and asked for votes. Xiao Meiniang and Zhang Lihua are coming out. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site) and give me rewards.
