Iron Dynasty

Chen Wei, this is all your guilt. If you hadn't escaped from the battle, how could the outside of the city have been defeated so badly. Now that the 8,000 cavalry troops have lost their enemies, you cannot escape the death penalty!

Chen Wei's angry accusation made Xiao Han suddenly come back to his senses. He pointed at Chen Wei, who was covered in embarrassment. Also lost more than 8,000 people.

Thinking that he must keep the life of the king of Chuzhou before leaving, Xiao Han's heart froze. If Chuzhou falls, a ghost must bear all the faults for him, and Chen Wei, the governor of Chuzhou, is undoubtedly the most suitable person.

When Chen Wei heard the words, he was immediately furious, and he shouted: It's obvious that you are greedy for your achievements, how can you frame it on my head again? This defeat will definitely be reported to His Royal Highness King Wei in detail.

Bold, you dare to slander me, don't forget, you are just a servant of the Wei palace. Xiao Han's eyes were filled with disdain, and then he said to the guards beside him, Chuzhou governor Chen Wei escaped in a row, and he committed a heinous crime. , take him to me and put him in jail.

As soon as Xiao Han's words came out, the captain on the city wall hurriedly said: His Royal Highness, it is absolutely impossible, now the only person who can turn the tide is Dudu Chen. If this Chuzhou city does not have Dudu Chen's command, the Chuzhou army will inevitably be in chaos. .

The Chuzhou army has been killed by the Southern Expedition Army, and there are still a few people left. Now this city of Chuzhou relies on the men and horses brought by Xiao Wang, and the 100,000 soldiers and the remaining 20,000 cavalry cannot be After defeating the Nanzheng Army, can’t we still hold the Chuzhou City?” Xiao Leng coldly asked.

When he entered the city, he was still a little afraid of Chen Wei, but after most of the Chuzhou army outside the city was damaged, he no longer feared Chen Wei. After all, what about a general without soldiers?

With a wave of his hand, he still asked his guards to pull Chen Wei down.

The quarrel on the city wall was not observed by Lu Fei.

He said to Luo Hong; Chen Wei seems to be arrested.

It's great, Xiao Han's arm is simply broken. Luo Hong said, he had seen Xiao Han in Chang'an before, so he recognized Xiao Han at first sight when he appeared in the city.

Picking up the binoculars to confirm, Xiao Han continued; General, this Chen Wei is a talented person, this person was born in the Chen family in Chuzhou, but he doesn't have the arrogance of a son of a wealthy family. In the army, he eats and lives with the soldiers. , is very considerate to the soldiers, and for this reason, the combat power of the Chuzhou army is better than that of other Wei forces.

Lu Fei nodded. When the two armies faced off against each other, Chen Wei's strategy was correct. If this time it was not a fraud, but a direct confrontation, although they could win completely, the losses would not be small.

Because these Chuzhou troops are completely desperate, which shows the morale of the Chuzhou army.

Looking at it like this, Xiao Han seems to want to use Chen Wei as a scapegoat. This cavalry has always been the treasure of King Wei. Now that he has lost so much, King Wei will definitely blame him, but no matter what, this is a good thing for us. Lu Fei said slowly.

Luo Xin asked at this time; Are we going to shell Chuzhou City next?

No, now King Wei has stuffed 130,000 horses into a small Chuzhou city, the food and grass in this city must be unsustainable, and can only be transferred from other cities. If we continue to besiege and not attack, we only need to cut off their The supply line is enough. Lu Fei said.

Bai Mu returned with a pound at this time, and he said, Let's leave the attack on the supply line to the end general.

From Huaizhou to Jinling City, it was time to take advantage of the cavalry, and he said, Well, only you are the most suitable for this matter.

After making a plan to besiege Chuzhou City, Lu Fei asked Luo Hong to lead a musket team to cut off the official road on the south side of Chuzhou City. As a result, Chuzhou City was completely besieged by the Southern Expedition Army.

In the face of the dignified deployment of the Nanzheng Army, no troops in Chuzhou City dared to come out to fight, and Xiao Han could only watch Chuzhou City trapped on all sides.

Upon seeing this, he immediately sent a message to Jinling City by messenger flying pigeons, expecting to attack the Southern Expedition Army from inside and outside.

At the same time, Ye Qingyun, with the help of 16 warships and 50 large merchant ships, loaded the soldiers on board at night. The next day, the fleet went directly to Jinling City along the Yangtze River.

It has to be said that the landing in Jinling City was an adventurous military operation. If the battle was successful, Jinling City could be captured in one fell swoop, and even King Wei could be captured. In this way, Wei Di City would be like a group of dragons without a leader. break.

Just according to the information provided by Li San, King Wei placed most of the artillery pieces purchased from Qingzhou in Jinling City. There was even a musket team in the city. Compared with other cities, Jinling City was a tough one.

Set off!

According to the scheduled time, the battleship carried the Dengzhou Army and the recruits to Jinling City. On the flagship deck, Ye Qingyun walked up to Yue Yun and stood side by side, with sharp eyes.

Yue Yun smiled and said, After the two battles, Dudu Ye has grown a lot older.

General Yue is laughing at me, I just saw the atrocities of King Wei in Yangzhou and have a heart.

Yue Yun was silent for a while, then he said: I have also heard about this matter. The Great Yu Kingdom fell apart, and the people who suffered the most were the people. Because of this, I will support His Highness to restore the orthodoxy of the Great Yu Kingdom.

Ye Qingyun looked firm, he said: General Yue's words are not bad, the northern barbarians have not been eliminated, and the domestic problems in Dayu should be solved as soon as possible.

More than a barbarian, the real enemy of Da Yu is at sea. Yue Yun frowned.

Oh? I don't know what General Yue has to say?

Yue Yun came to Tongzhou after receiving Xiao Ming's order. At the same time, he left a thousand soldiers stationed in the Sanshan Kingdom to ensure the safety of the Sanshan Kingdom. Equipped with arquebuses and trained by the Dutch, fighting against them must be different from the vassal kings of the Great Yu Kingdom.”

Secondly, Western countries other than Japan are extending their tentacles to the Great Yu Kingdom. The Dutch have already reminded His Royal Highness that there must be a war by then.

Ye Qingyun shook his head when he heard the words, Da Yu country is really troubled, and it is still in a troubled autumn. If this is the case, then the country should be stabilized earlier.

Having said this, Ye Qingyun realized why Xiao Ming wanted to take Jinling City directly, in order to end the war in Wei land as soon as possible.

In the current Great Yu Kingdom, only Wei, Yong, and Qi are of royal bloodlines, and all other cities are occupied by vassal kings with different surnames. Only by winning the wealthy Wei and controlling the source of ore can they have the capital to fight alone in the world. .

Thinking of this, a trace of determination flashed in Ye Qingyun's eyes.
