Hegemony of all Dynasties: Get the Zhao Yun template at the beginning

Chapter 575

Yangzhou is not far from Liuhe where Chen Baxian is located. There are not a few spies from Nanchen in Yangzhou city, and because it is close to the Huai army, Nanchen pays close attention to every move of the Huai army. The number of spies sent is more than that of Jinling's Jinyiwei.

When the vanguard of the West Route Army of the South Expedition Army came to the river by boat.

Nan Chen's spies got the news immediately.

Then, regardless of the cost, the news was sent back to Liuhe. For these spies from other princes, the troops of the Military Intelligence Department would clean up and strangle them every once in a while.

An internal intelligence department was even set up to guard against spies, similar to the Jinyiwei of the Ming Army, and the military intelligence department of the Yuan World, but the staff of the Military Intelligence Department has been continuously expanded, and now there are [-] people on the staff.

But it is still not enough to prevent the infiltration of the surrounding princes and spies.

Especially the news of the large-scale dispatch of troops, there is no way to hide it.At most, when the spies are passing on the information, try to find a way to intercept and kill them as much as possible.

Chen Baxian was able to get the news as soon as the Huai army dispatched troops, which was inseparable from the sacrifice of his spies.

In the first moment of receiving the message.

Chen Baxian was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and immediately summoned a few of his confidantes.

"The Huai Army has dispatched troops!"

Chen Baxian told the news directly after everyone arrived. Wu Mingche, Yu Shiji, Chun Yuliang, Xiao Moke and others were shocked at first, and then showed joy.

"Okay, I heard that King Huai dispatched millions of troops and issued a call to conquer the Sun family. This is determined to destroy the Sun family of Eastern Wu... Most of the Huai army will go south, so we don't have any scruples!"

Chun Yuliang smiled and said.

"Yes, the current timing is very favorable to us. Not long ago, another news came from the spies. Zhu Yuanzhang is drawing elite infantry and starting to send troops to the southwest... The Ming army wants to annex the Eastern Jin Dynasty!"

"With Zhu Yuanzhang as the opponent, the Eastern Jin Dynasty will not be able to involve Lujiang and other places in a short period of time. In other words, apart from a small number of Eastern Jin soldiers and horses, Lujiang and other places have almost no powerful forces!"

"If our army sends troops, it will definitely sweep the Lujiang River!"

Chen Baxian laughed loudly.

When Wu Mingche and Yu Shiji heard this, they had to admit that the current situation was indeed very favorable to Nanchen, and it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for expansion.

Due to the close attention to the Huai army, most of Nanchen's spies were distributed in Sihong and Yangzhou, and Jinling was further divided, and the number of spies going to Lujiang and other places was very small.

Insufficient manpower, Southern Chen's spies only found out that the Eastern Jin Dynasty sent some troops to cross the north, and the leader seemed to be Xie Yan from the Xie family of Chen County, but they didn't know that the commander in chief of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan was really too low-key. Except for the word "Thank you" on the hanging general flag, it was difficult for outsiders to peek into the heavily guarded and neatly fortified Jin army camp.

Therefore, the mere Xie Yan did not attract the attention of Chen Baxian, Wu Mingche and others at all.

They were all attracted by the favorable situation at hand.

"Congratulations, lord!"

Everyone laughed.

"Okay, you should know the purpose of calling you here, pass on my order to dispatch 20 soldiers and horses, and I will personally lead the troops and march westward to the Lujiang River..."

Wu Mingche, Xiao Moke and others cheered up and took orders in unison. .Even Yu Shiji, who originally thought that Nan Chen had no future and had little loyalty to Chen Baxian, was a little excited.

……

Chen Baxian had already made preparations to send troops, but the Huai army did not dispatch, and he did not dare to send troops rashly, for fear of attracting the attention of other princes.

it's good now.

The entire south is in chaos. The Huai army, known as the overlord of the Jianghuai River, is going south to attack the Eastern Wu. Jinling Zhu Yuanzhang is going to attack the Eastern Jin. The Sun family of the Eastern Wu has not yet ended the war with Xiao Daocheng and Liu Bi, and they are facing the invasion of the Huai army...

Further south, the Southern Song Dynasty also wiped out all kinds of small and medium forces in the territory, and the war continued.

Only the forces of Liu Song had just ended the war and were temporarily unable to expand outward.

The more chaotic the situation, the more beneficial it is for those who want to fish in troubled waters.

Liu Song, who was relatively quiet in the eyes of other forces, also made some secret moves. For example, at Liu Muzhi's suggestion, he sent envoys to Liu Bi in the Western Han Dynasty near Huzhou and Jiaxing.

No matter how you say it, Liu Yu's surname is also Liu. Although he and Liu Bi are not the same ancestor, they both have the surname Liu and share a common language.

Now that Liu Bi was beaten by Sun Ce, his collapse was imminent, and he was about to perish.

If he is smarter, as long as Liu Bi wants to survive, he can only choose one of the surrounding forces to join him.As for who to rely on, do you even need to think about it?Of course it is the clan power surnamed Liu!

Liu Bi still has [-] to [-] troops and some territory.

If Liu Bi's troops can be merged without sending troops, then Liu Song's strength will also be quickly restored and strengthened.

In the waves of the river.

Under the shocked gazes of Jinling and Liu Song naval forces on the south bank, warships and troop carriers bypassed Yangzhongzhou between Jingkou and Taixing in half a day and entered the north of Jiangyin.

In the north of Jiangyin, Jingjiang Island with a radius of tens of miles is located in the middle of the river.

On this Jiangxin Continent, the Huai army had already dispatched three thousand soldiers and horses to support them, as well as some soldiers under Xiao Daocheng's command.

The fleet approached Jingjiang Island, and some craftsmen and civilian husbands landed here with the troop carrier.

Their mission is to build a strong fortress on this Jiangxin Island to store food and grass, and to serve as a transit water fortress for the Huai Army Navy.

But the elite troops of Fu Youde and Yang Dayan did not stay here.

After circling an arc on the water, he quickly landed in Jiangyin.

"This is General Fu Youde, the last general Xiao Jin was ordered by the Lord to lead the way for the general!"

Landing ferry in Jiangyin.

As soon as Fu Youde and Yang Dayan got off the boat, a general sent by Xiao Daocheng hurriedly stepped forward to meet them with a very respectful attitude.

This general named Xiao Jin is obviously Xiao Daocheng's clansman and confidant.

He already knew that Xiao Daocheng was going to join Duke Huai.

"Okay, Lord Qi has a heart!"

Fu Youde said in a deep voice.

After all the [-] elite disembarked, the craftsmen who came with the army immediately assembled the cloud cart directly on the shore. This kind of portable cloud cart was specially used for marching.

As for the pack horses needed to pull the cart, Xiao Daocheng had also prepared them.

The [-] elite of the West Route Army only need to board the cloud car.

Now the cloud cart is no longer the Huai Army's patent. After seeing the function of the cloud cart in Sihong, those merchants who traveled north and south were all shocked by the cloud cart's ability to pull and transport goods.

This kind of tool that can quickly transport goods is simply a must-have for businessmen.

Driven by huge profits, other princes in the south of the Yangtze River also quickly developed counterfeit products.

However, like the Huai army, the ability to quickly disassemble the cloud car during the march and transport 20 to [-] troops is still a lot worse than the princes in the south of the Yangtze River.
