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

In the critical battle for the unification of the South, every day counts for the three forces.

In particular, the mobilization of the three forces and the speed of troop deployment can have a great impact on the outcome of the war.

For example, the Ming army in Jinling was limited by its own national strength, and it was the limit to maintain an army of 80 troops, and many of them were recruits who had not been recruited recently.

The Ming army had 80 soldiers, while the Xia army had only a million soldiers going south. It seems that the gap between the two sides is not too big.
But in fact, in addition to mobilizing soldiers, Daxia also has temporarily formed auxiliary soldiers and guard soldiers.If these troops are included, the Xia army has more than 150 million troops.

In the case that both Jurong Daying and Dangtu needed large armies, there were not many soldiers left in Jinling and Xuancheng.

At this time, the Ming army is recruiting troops from various guards with a small number of elites as the core.

These newly recruited troops will not be of much use in the frontal battlefield against Daxia.

If Xu Da and Chang Yuchun can persist in the two places for more than half a year, these recruits can alleviate the embarrassment of the Ming army.

In addition to emergency mobilization, the Ming army also continued to send envoys to urge the Song army to go north as soon as possible.

It's just that with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, the speed of marching is not fast enough.

And the Song Army knew how powerful Xia Bing was, so he didn't dare to divide his troops, so as not to cause the result of dividing his troops to the north but feeding the enemy.

Compared with the mobilization and marching speed of the Ming and Song armies.

The speed of Daxia's mobilization and dispatch of troops almost wiped out both sides.

When the main force of the Song Army was still on the road.Xia Jun's elite soldiers have already traveled south from Jiangyin to Taihu Lake by water at an extremely fast speed, and began to fight Song Jun.

Changxing is the key position for the Song army to go north.

In history, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng repeatedly competed for this place, and Geng Bingwen was also named Marquis because he had been stationed in Changxing for ten years and repelled more than a dozen attacks by Zhang Shicheng.

Geng Bingwen's ability, the benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees wisdom, but he is definitely not a ninth-level famous general.It's like some generals won a battle at a critical moment, which cannot be said to be his real strength.

I believe that with Zhu Yuanzhang's vision, he can also know Geng Bingwen's true ability.

Otherwise, Ming Taizu, who has been working hard to suppress Huaixi nobles, even Tang Shengzong was suppressed, how could he let go of a noble general who was named a marquis because of his military merits.

It can only be said that Geng Bingwen's ability is insufficient, but he has made great contributions to guarding Changxing, so after he was granted the title of Marquis, Zhu Yuanzhang did not pay attention to it.

All these can explain the importance of Changxing City.

Changxing is located on the southwest side of Taihu Lake, with mountains to the west and south, and only the southeast side leads to Huzhou.

Huzhou is located in the Jiahu Plain, which is one of the few fertile lands in the southeast.

80.00% of the land is arable land with high grain yield and guaranteed harvest in drought and flood.

In the world of Shenzhou, Huzhou and Suzhou are the kings and hegemons in the southeast. If a force can occupy them, it will not take long for the power to increase rapidly.

However, when hundreds of millions of living beings first arrived in the first year of Taichu, this place had not been developed. After Liu Bi developed it, there was Liu Yu in the north and Song Army in the south.Liu Bi has no room for expansion.

Changxing is the west gateway of Huzhou.It is also a necessary place to enter Yixing and go north to Changzhou.

At this time, Wuxudu in the north of Changxing was being attacked by Xia Jun's navy.

In the history of the original world, Wuxu Ferry is said to be the ferry that Wu Zixu passed through when he fled to Wu. Of course, the terrain of the Shenzhou world is roughly the same as the direction of the mountains and rivers in the source world, but the details are different.

The name of this ferry is just Changxing people naming it according to the previous habits.

This is where Changxing entered Taihu Lake. After the Song army occupied Changxing, they also set up a water village here to defend against water thieves from Taihu Lake.

The Song army did not have many soldiers and horses left in this water village. The number of sailors was about [-], but most of the sailors were formed by the manpower left by Liu Bi in the Western Han Dynasty.

Boom!

On the vast lake in the east, hundreds of warships look like dragons.

Among them, the warship acting as the vanguard had already approached the water village, and rushed into the water village under the cover of kerosene bombs.

There were only a dozen warships in the water fortress, and they were bombarded by kerosene bombs and smoke billowed everywhere. Thousands of Song Army sailors spotted the Xia Army Navy, but they were too weak to fight back.

Many Song Army sailors were covered in flames, screaming and falling into the lake.Incomparably tragic.

kill!

A guerrilla general of the Xia army who rushed to the front held a long knife, and the light of the knife flashed, and the corpses of a dozen Song army sailors were separated, and they rushed straight into the sky, like a man-eating tiger, which made people shudder.

The blood splattered everywhere was bounced off by the protective energy covering the whole body before it got close.

With a sweep of his gaze, with his powerful sense of battlefield and experience in battle formations, he immediately locked on to a figure in the distance who was wearing the armor of the Song Army and was fleeing in embarrassment.

"die!"

With a flick of his toes, he picked up a long spear from the ground, and threw it with his hand, a thunderclap resounded in the void, and in just an instant, the general of the Song army who was fleeing in the distance was pierced through.

After the main general of the Song Army Water Village was killed, the fighting sound in the entire Water Village quickly dissipated.

"General, the guerrilla general Pan Zhang beheaded the chief general of the Song army, beheaded more than [-] people, and captured [-]..."

On a five-toothed ship not far away.

The messenger was reporting to a man in light armor, elegant-looking, with a short beard.

This person is the general Chen Qingzhi who led the elite Xia army and was responsible for going south to capture Changxing!
According to the plan discussed by Wang Jing, Gao Yan, and Wei Rui, 20 soldiers were going to go south to intercept the hundreds of thousands of Song troops going north.The general who commanded these 20 soldiers was Wei Rui.

And Chen Qingzhi first led [-] soldiers, with the white-robed army trained by himself as the core, and acted as a vanguard to go south first.

There are also some sailors who went south with them.

However, the navy is only used as a troop transport and support, not the main force... The river from Jiangyin to Taihu Lake cannot accommodate too many warships.

"Okay, let General Pan Zhang lead his troops to garrison here and take a rest temporarily. The rest of the troops will disembark immediately and raid Changxing!"

Chen Qingzhi pinched his short beard, nodded, and ordered.

Before going south, Chen Qingzhi had a simple understanding of Changxing through the spies and the sentinels he sent out.

Song Jun also knew the importance of Changxing.

Although they didn't leave too many troops in the water village in Wuxudu, there were about [-] troops stationed in Changxing City.After the Song Army decided to send troops, the number of defenders in the city reached [-].

These troops were not the Imperial Army of the Southern Song Dynasty, but they were used to defend the city, and their strength was not considered weak.

After Chen Qing gave the order.

He disembarked first, and then groups of elite soldiers in white robes disembarked silently and solemnly one by one. The pace and aura of these white robe soldiers were all connected in the dark, with extraordinary momentum.

Xia Jun was extremely fast.

After half an hour.

Chen Qingzhi rushed to the foot of Changxing City with some soldiers.

The walls of Changxing City are very strong, and the defenders on the top of the city, under the leadership of the generals of the Song Army, did not panic because the enemy troops approached the city.

On the top of the city, Chen Qingzhi saw the God Arm Bow, the Breaking Crossbow and various weapons with powerful lethality.

The various equipment made by the Xia Jun Construction Department are very sophisticated, and the Song Jun's equipment is also not weak. You must know that Xia Jun's magic arm bow originated from the Song Army...

"attack!"

Chen Qingzhi's complexion did not change at all. The defense of Changxing City looked good, and there were traces of military formations, but there was a fatal weakness, that is, there were no ninth-rank generals in the city.

Before the people behind could arrive, Chen Qingzhi gave the order to attack.

The first to attack were five thousand elite soldiers in white robes.

Five thousand white-robed elite soldiers lined up, and in an instant, an invisible aura enveloped a radius of more than ten miles, and then 5000 men and horses strode forward. When they approached the city wall, they took out strong bows from their backs.

Whoosh whoosh!
Five thousand elite soldiers, the weakest ones have Tier [-] strength. They are in other places. Any soldier can serve as a hundred households. They have a strong body, strong strength, and after being blessed by the army formation, the faint qi flowing through the whole body...

Blessing the feather arrows with Gang Qi, each feather arrow was like a small stone bullet thrown by a catapult, with tricky precision, hitting the heads of the defenders at the top of the city one after another.

Fluffy, the heads of many defenders were blasted abruptly, splashing red and white.

There were also many soldiers who were severely injured and screamed incomparably.

On the top of the city, the scene was extremely miserable.

A blow from the rain of arrows caused the morale of the defenders at the top of the city to plummet.
