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

Chapter 669 The decisive move
In addition to the news around Jinling, the situation in the southeast also reached Jinling.

When Wang Jing personally led the army to Jinling, the soldiers and horses who had stayed in Wuxi went south by boat and launched an attack on Huzhou.

The coaches Yu Yunwen and Meng Gong of the Southern Song Dynasty were not incompetent people, and they both understood the importance of the back road.

When attacking Changxing, Huzhou's defense was not forgotten.

Yu Yunwen personally sat in Huzhou, and the soldiers who went to attack only occupied some small towns in the north of Huzhou.
However, it could not threaten the main city of Huzhou, nor could it cut off the grain road for the main force of the Song army going north.

After Wei Rui received this information, he was not at all depressed. Instead, he asked Lin Renzhao to lead the navy, and led two generals Gan Ning and Tan Daoji to attack Jiaxing.

This part of the soldiers and horses, relying on the advantages of warships, took the mighty Taihu Lake as their retreat,

You can threaten the rear of the Song Army in Changxing and Jiaxing at will.

Neither Yu Yunwen nor Han Shizhong had a good solution for this, and it was a headache.

No way, their navy is too weak.

If you want to curb the threat of Xia Jun's navy's negligence and agility, and come and go at will, you must either set a trap and wait for the enemy to land in an ambush, or use the navy to fight the navy.

But Tan Daoji had strategy, Gan Ning had bravery, and Wei Rui commanded remotely in Changxing. Whether it was attacking Huzhou or threatening Jiaxing, he never attacked the big city, and the speed back and forth was very fast.

Song Jun was not given the opportunity to design an ambush at all.

"With Lin Renzhao, Tan Daoji, and Gan Ning harassing the Song army's rear, the troops from Changxing and Jiaxing will have a [-]% chance of winning. Zhu Yuanzhang wants to wait for the Song army to join him, but he may not be able to wait!"

The royal palace in Jinling City.

After receiving the military report, Wang Jing summoned his confidants to come to discuss the matter. The civil servants included Gao Yan, Zhang Juzheng, Xie Hui, He Chou, and Li Shanchang and Pei Ju who came from Yangzhou, including six ministers.

Generals include Fu Youde, Yuwen Chengdu, Wang Sengbian, Lu Kang and others.

After Gao Yan, Fu Youde and others read the latest military report, they had different expressions. Now that the Song army can't go north, and the Ming army is sunset on the west mountain, this southern expedition can be said to be a complete victory.

The Great Xia Dynasty will soon be able to carry out a new round of great expansion.

As the dynasty becomes stronger, its aura will become more vigorous. As long as they are officials and generals, they can get the blessing of the aura of the dynasty and speed up their practice.

The family can also continue in the dynasty, and it can also hold great power...

These are all good things!
However, after reading the information, especially the news that Zhu Yuanzhang stationed troops at Moling Pass, Gao Yan was a little worried.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Yuanzhang stationed troops at Moling Pass. I thought it was not that simple!"

"If the Ming army really wanted to retreat directly, they would not take the road of Moling Pass. To the south of Moling Pass is Lishui, and further south of Lishui is Gaochun. I think Zhu Yuanzhang is very likely and wants to die when he is defeated. One blow... with the remaining elite of the Ming army, attack Gaochun! Forcibly clear the way!"

Gao Yan said in a low voice.

His reason is very simple. After the Jinling was abandoned in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, only the land of the original Eastern Jin Dynasty with Xuancheng as the core remained, and Gaochun was not only the southern gate of Jinling, but also the northern gate of Xuancheng.

If he wants to defend Xuancheng, Gao Chun must get it.

There was a glint of light in Fu Youde's eyes, he stood up immediately, and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Gao's words are very reasonable. The last general asks for orders to lead the troops of the Zhenjiang camp to go south immediately to attack Moling Pass and chase the remnants of the Ming army!"

"General Fu, don't worry, I haven't finished yet!"

Gao Yan said: "Although the Ming army lost more than half of its strength, the elite did not lose too much. Even after gathering famous generals such as Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Xu Da, the threat of the remnants of the Ming army is even stronger!"

"If we chase too quickly, the opponent will easily risk their lives in a desperate situation. At that time, our army's ninth-rank general will be damaged..."

At this time, Xie Hui couldn't bear it anymore, and even interrupted Gao Yan's words regardless of the difference in status, and said loudly: "I don't agree with the privy envoy's words. Although Jinling was won, the main force of the Ming army is still there. If it cannot be defeated completely, how can Jinling be safe?"

"Also, the Ming army is now a bereaved dog, and our army's morale is at its peak. How can we stop chasing and suppressing the remnants of the enemy because of the losses of our soldiers?"

As they spoke, the others looked different.

Everyone knew that Xie Xuan, the general guarding Gaochun, would soon face Zhu Yuanzhang's desperate attack. At that time, under the strong attack, Xie Xuan, Xiao Moke and others might not be able to stop Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da and others.

Xie Xuan is the backbone of the Xie Clan in Chen Jun, and both Xie Hui and Xie Xuan are members of the Xie Clan, how can they just sit back and watch Xie Xuan appear in danger?
Gao Yan's expression remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Xuan Ming misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I just reminded His Majesty, don't pursue too hastily..."

"My original intention is to let General Xie Xuan withdraw from Gaochun, and then the main force of our army will slowly encircle from the north and east, so as to give full play to our advantage of having a large number of troops in the court and avoid unnecessary losses!"

Chasing too quickly would easily cause Zhu Yuanzhang to go all out in desperation. Gao Yan's original intention was to slow down Xia Jun's pursuit.

There is no Jinling as the foundation.

Daming lost so much territory again, the morale of the soldiers of the Ming army will continue to drop, and when the opponent becomes weak, the Xia army will go up to pick up bargains, and the loss will be greatly reduced.

Xie Hui was a little embarrassed.

He also thought that Gao Yan deliberately put Xie Xuan into a dangerous situation and weakened Xie's power in the army.Unexpectedly, it was his villain's heart that measured the gentleman's belly.

According to Gao Yan, if Xie Xuan gave up Gao Chun directly, he would not face Zhu Yuanzhang at all. How could it be dangerous?
"General Fu, what's your opinion?"

Wang Jing's face remained unchanged, as if he hadn't noticed the verbal confrontation of these courtiers, his eyes fell on Fu Youde.

After hearing what Gao Yan and Xie Hui said, Fu Youde's eagerness to fight calmed down a little.

"The general thinks that what the two gentlemen said makes sense. Now that our army has taken Jinling and even the Dasheng Pass, the importance of Gaochun to us has been reduced by half!"

"General Xie Xuan led [-] Beifu's elite soldiers. If they fought together in the wild, one of them could outnumber a hundred. But if Zhu Yuanzhang's reckless attack on the city, the loss will definitely not be small!"

"In the opinion of the last general, it is better to let General Xie Xuan lead his army back to Liyang, instead of fighting the Ming army to death, and the last general leads the Zhenjiang battalion and horse soldiers to Moling Pass... to attack this place, and then swallow part of the strength of the Ming army! "

Fu Youde is the talent of a general. When he knew that what Gao Yan said was reasonable, he would seriously refer to it and revise his plan.

Xia Jun's surprise attack on Gaochun was intended to threaten Jinling from the south and create conditions for the main force to attack Jinling.

Now that Zhu Yuanzhang has directly abandoned Jinling, Gaochun's strategic position has directly declined.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Gaochun is not important. This place is located between Jinling and Xuancheng, and it is the gateway of the two places, so it is still important.

It's just not as important as it used to be.

Therefore, Fu Youde agreed to abandon this place first, so as not to lose the [-] Beifu troops trained with great difficulty.

And he led the soldiers and horses of the Zhenjiang camp all the way to attack and kill. If Zhu Yuanzhang attacked Gaochun himself, then the army behind would definitely not be too strong.

With the strength of the Zhenjiang camp, it is enough to defeat the enemy.

Wang Jing pondered for a while, and did not directly make a decision, but temporarily put this topic aside, and began to discuss the matter of the Great Victory with everyone.

Dasheng Pass is the last line of defense upstream of Jinling.

Once the Xia army's navy occupies this place, they can travel all the way up the river, join the soldiers and horses of the Lujiang camp, and launch a mad attack on Chang Yuchun in Dangtu.

Nowadays, Xia Jun's navy generals are relatively scarce.

It is a problem to let the general lead the troops to garrison Dasheng Pass and wait for the main force of the navy.

Wang Jing discussed with everyone for a while, and selected Lu Kang as the general of the navy, and temporarily led tens of thousands of sailors to Dasheng Pass.

Lu Xun is a well-known general in history. His son Lu Kang is also a top general not inferior to his father. He guarded Jiangling and prevented the Western Jin Dynasty from advancing an inch. Even if there was Yanghu in the Western Jin Dynasty, he suffered repeated defeats.

Once Lu Kang died, Soochow was quickly destroyed by the Western Jin Dynasty...

This general who can be called the pillar of the late Eastern Wu Dynasty is naturally no stranger to the navy.

After the meeting.

Li Shanchang, Pei Ju, He Chou and others left first, while Gao Yan, Zhang Juzheng, Xie Hui and Fu Youde stayed behind.

Wang Jing brought the four of them to the study.

Except for Zhang Juzheng, the other three were all confidants who followed Wang Jing for a long time. Knowing that Wang Jing left them, there must be important matters to discuss, but they didn't know what they were going to discuss.

When Gao Yan took his seat, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he felt something.

Wait until everyone is seated.

Wang Jing glanced at them, and said: "The four lovers are all my confidantes, and there are no outsiders right now, so I will speak directly when I have something to say!"

"What do you think of Zhu Yuanzhang?"

This……

Everyone looked at each other, Gao Yan pondered slightly, and said: "Although Zhu Yuanzhang is the enemy of our dynasty, I have to say that this person is a rare enlightened lord in the world. No matter what era he is, he can rise to the top. Even to dominate the world! This person is a strong enemy of our court!"

Xie Hui nodded slightly. Even he had to admit that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was extremely humble but was able to create a 300-year dynasty, was great.

As for Zhang Juzheng and Fu Youde, they were famous ministers and generals of the Ming Dynasty in history, especially Fu Youde, although he hated Zhu Yuanzhang, he did not lack admiration deep in his heart.

Obviously, everyone has a high opinion of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Wang Jing sighed and said: "That's right, Zhu Yuanzhang's status is lower than Liu Bang's. He has defeated many opponents, expelled Meng Yuan, and ruled the world. If you rank the emperors in the history books, this person will definitely be ranked first. five!"

The only emperor who could firmly suppress Ming Taizu was Qin Shihuang.

The following Han Gaozu, Han Wudi, Guangwu Emperor, Tang Taizong...

Although they are all top-notch Mingjuns, they are not too far behind Ming Taizu.

Li Shimin's literary and martial arts are slightly stronger than Zhu Yuanzhang's. The other emperors are on the same level as Zhu Yuanzhang, so it doesn't matter who is in the forefront.

But no matter how he ranks, Zhu Yuanzhang will never fall out of the top five.

Gao Yan and Xie Hui thought for a while, quickly went through the emperors recorded in the history books, and felt that what Wang Jing said was right.

"Zhu Yuanzhang! My strong enemy! In the south of the Shenzhou world, this person is the only one who can fight against me! If he doesn't take advantage of the weakening of the Ming army, he will definitely get entangled with our army slowly and withdraw from Jinling. Take Xuancheng as the foundation!"

"Even, he can continue to expand in the direction of Huizhou and Jiujiang, hurting the north and making up for the south. As long as he doesn't die, he will be entangled with me with full tenacity!"

"If you give him enough time, the Ming army will be able to recover in a few years and become a strong enemy of our army again!"

"Such a person, tell me, can I give him a chance to continue pestering?"

Wang Jing's tone was light.

However, the four people in the study could all feel Wang Jing's fear of Zhu Yuanzhang, which was far superior to Xiang Yu, Lu Bu, and Cao Cao.

Gao Yan's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't answer.

Wang Jing didn't need him to answer, Wang Jing's gaze was on Xie Hui.

At this time, Xie Hui also understood the meaning of Wang Jing's words.

His heart was full of bitterness, and he replied with some difficulty: "No!"

"Not bad!"

Wang Jing immediately took a picture of the wooden case, his eyes suddenly shot a cold light, and said in a deep voice: "Of course I will not give him a chance! As long as I can deal with this powerful enemy, even the [-] Beifu army trained by me with a lot of resources , all of them will be destroyed in Gaochun, and I will spare no effort!"

"The elite soldiers die in battle, and I can continue to train!"

"As for Zhu Yuanzhang, there is only one person in the world!"

The four people in the study understood Wang Jing's decision at this moment.

Wang Jing did not agree with Gao Yan and Fu Youde's previous proposal in the hall. He was planning to let Xie Xuan and the [-] Beifu troops defend Gaochun to the death and block the passage of the remnants of the Ming army going south.

Then launched a general offensive in the north desperately.

As long as Wang Jing's goal can be achieved, no matter how many soldiers and horses are lost in the process, it will be worth it!

Of course, with the remaining soldiers and horses of the Ming army, Xia's loss will not be too high.

The only risky place is Gaochun where Xie Xuan is.

"I understand..."

Seeing Wang Jing's resolute expression, Xie Hui knew that he had no room to bargain,
Moreover, just now he kept saying that he could not let the Ming army go, and that he must send troops to pursue him as soon as possible... Although his meaning was different from Wang Jing's, what he said was very similar.

Another point is that the [-] Beifu Army is not Xie's private soldiers, the real master of the Beifu Army is Wang Jing!
"Xuanming, I asked Yuwen Chengdu to lead two thousand white-eared elite soldiers, one thousand elite soldiers from the camp, Zhou Panlong and his son as deputy, take the Danyang waterway south to Jintan, and you set off with the army, and meet Lu Xun in Liyang!"

"Three thousand top elite soldiers, plus the support of generals such as Yuwen Chengdu, it will not be so easy for Zhu Yuanzhang to win Gaochun!"

Wang Jing said slowly.

Hearing this, Xie Hui breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Yuwen Chengdu seldom led troops to fight in person, no one doubted his strength.

As Wang Jing's personal guard general, with the support of various resources, his strength has soared. The absolute top fighters, Zhou Panlong and Zhou Fengshu father and son, were only eighth-rank generals before.

However, after successive battles, the two also broke through the ninth-level bottleneck, but their realm only reached the human realm, not as rapid as Yuwen Chengdu.

Xia Jun's ninth-rank generals are scattered all over the place. Jinling seems to be short of generals, but with a little mobilization, more people can be found.

Four ninth ranks plus Xie Xuan and Xiao Moke.

Enough to resist Zhu Yuanzhang!
Wang Jing, he has no intention of letting Xie Xuan die...
