Chu Mingtang sat upright in the tent, his face full of anger
You are too brave and act recklessly, not serving your mother at home, so why are you here to do this?
It's just that I've been serving too much, so I came to you. Chu Zheng thought to himself
The child misses his father, Chu Zheng said
Chu Zheng looked a little pitiful, no wonder he had crawled through the pile of firewood, climbed over the trees, and fought with people again. He was dirty all over. Before Chu Mingtang came in, he tore up a few more holes in his clothes and deliberately made some soil on the ground and applied it to his face.
Chu Mingtang scolded him, but he didn't feel a little distressed when he looked like this. He thought he had suffered a lot along the way, so he couldn't help but lose his anger.
Nonsense! Well, stay here tonight and I'll be here for my father tomorrow and I'll send you back to Pingyuan City
Chu Zheng was anxious: Father, the child won't go back
Chu Mingtang is so stern, he is about to get angry again
Father, the child is already thirteen this year, no longer a ignorant child. In ancient times, Gan Luo was twelve years old and was appointed as the prime minister. Although the child dared not compare with his predecessors, father, you won’t want the child to always be happy with his parents. The two brothers have joined the army, and the child will always grow up.
Having said that, Chu Mingtang said, but this is the battlefield of war between the two countries. If the sword is eyeless, how can your mother feel at ease
Chu Zheng smiled and said: Father, you are the general of Zhao State and are good at using troops. Although the two armies are fighting, if there is still danger in your tent, the emperor will not let you be the commander.
When Chu Mingtang heard it, he couldn't help but smile, thinking that this child is smart by nature, so it's not bad to see more here.
OK, then you stay, but don't run around, report everything to my father
Chu Zheng was overjoyed: Thank you, father
At this time, the guard came to report that Princess Qi asked for a meeting
Chu Mingtang didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly said: Please
Zhao Qi walked in, her eyes still slightly red
Chu Mingtang heard Chu Yuan say something roughly and understood what was going on, but he could only pretend not to know and went forward to salute and said: "Chu Mingtang, please see the princess."
Zhao Qi returned the courtesy: Lord Chu, you are polite. You have known your father for many years. If you love brothers, just call me a niece.
Zhao Qi followed two black cavalry soldiers, who dragged Lin Fengyan and pushed him in front of Chu Mingtang.
Lin Fengyan didn't even look at Chu Mingtang, but just stared at Chu Zheng, his eyes seemed to be about to spit out fire.
He was also a master in the martial arts world of Southern Qi, but he didn't expect that the gutter would capsize and fall into the hands of Chu Zheng, a child, really made him extremely angry.
Zhao Qi said to Chu Mingtang: Lord Chu, this man's name is Lin Fengyan, he is a child of the Lin family in the martial arts south of Jiangnan. This time he sneaked into my Da Zhao to spy on military information. This man's martial arts skills are very powerful. His niece and Prince Ling work together to capture him, and now he is handed over to Lord Chu.
Chu Lingtang glanced at Chu Zheng and thought to himself that the princess was too polite. What kind of strength can Chu Zheng do, so
He didn't play with martial arts, and always thought that Chu Zheng had only been a teacher for several years before he could get started. He had no idea that his son had already entered the ranks of masters in martial arts.
Zhao Qi took out the map and secret letters found from Lin Fengyan from her arms and handed them to Chu Mingtang.
Chu Mingtang looked at it, moved, and bowed to Zhao Qi: The princess captured this thief, which is a great achievement. If these secret reports are really sent to the Southern Qi, the consequences will be unimaginable. The lower official said that the princess would be grateful to the princess on behalf of the southern front.
Zhao Qi replied: "You are polite, Lord Chu, my niece is also a great Zhao Zimin. It was supposed to contribute to the great Zhao."
The two of them were kind, Chu Mingtang said: It was getting late today. Please ask the princess to be in the camp for one night and start back to Pingyuan City tomorrow to avoid the prince’s concern.
Zhao Qi looked at Chu Mingtang, with a squinted expression, and she wanted to speak but stopped.
Chu Mingtang hurriedly said: If the princess has something to say, please tell me
Lord Chu, my niece wants to stay in the military camp for a few more days, but I don’t know if it’s convenient.
Zhao Qi was extremely conflicted. She had a good impression of Chu Xuan since she was a child, but she didn't want to leave home for a year. When she came back, Chu Xuan was engaged to others. Although she was completely disappointed at that time, she was a little reluctant to leave now if she really wanted her to leave here.
Chu Zheng was excited and there would be a good show in the future. It seems that the princess still has no love for her elder brother.
When Chu Mingtang heard this, he felt a little embarrassed. Why did Zhao Qi leave him with all his knowledge? But not to mention that there are many unknown secrets in this war, so it is hard to say: The princess should know that according to the law of the Great Zhao Kingdom, the royal family members must participate in the war, and the emperor's imperial edict is required.
Zhao Qi took off a peach from his waist and handed it to Chu Mingtang: Lord Chu, I wonder if this can be used?
Chu Mingtang saw it and was slightly surprised. This was Zilongjue, the exclusive exclusive to the emperor's special envoy, and had the power to kill prefectures and counties.
This purple dragon jue is clearly not something that Changping Palace can have. Princes enthroned in various counties are not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, let alone Zhao Qi is just a princess.
Is it true that this is related to Zhao Qi’s master as Mrs.
Chu Mingtang felt that he had been a little careless over the years. There was a person in Pingyuan City who secretly held the purple dragon bree and did not notice it.
If Emperor Ming of Zhao wants to attack him, Zhao Qi can use this piece of Zilongjue to pull half of the subordinate officials in his county
Unexpectedly, the princess was still the leader of Zi Longjue. Chu Mingtang politely said to Zhao Qi, but Zi Longjue had only the right to dissuade the subordinates, but no right to block them. If the princess wanted to stay in the army for a long time, she still had to issue an order from the emperor.
Zhao Qi showed Zilongjue, Chu Mingtang couldn't let her stay
Zhao Qi also knew that what Chu Mingtang said was true, so she had no choice but to say helplessly: My niece has bothered Lord Chu.
Chu Mingtang asked the guard to take Zhao Qi to the camp to rest. Chu Zheng looked at Zhao Qi Luomo's back and felt a little helpless, but he had no choice. Besides, the eldest brother didn't like her very much. It was good that he had long pain and pain.
Chu Mingtang carefully looked at what Zhao Qi gave him and felt a little uneasy. Did Nanqi notice some of his plans?
This is a bit tricky
Chu Mingtang pointed at Lin Fengyan and said to the guards: Leave this person to Deputy Commander Wang and question it strictly
Wait, Chu Zheng walked over and said, "This man was very rude to this young master along the way, and I will give him some pain later. Chu Zheng secretly accompanies internal energy and kicks Lin Fengyan's dantian."
Lin Fengyan secretly healed his injuries along the way, and his injuries were half healed. He was about to rush to the acupoint with all his strength, but Chu Zheng kicked him and his previous efforts were wasted. Thirty years of hard work suddenly turned into nothing.
Lin Fengyan is the real thoughts
Chu Mingtang asked Chu Zheng about his family's recent situation. After all, he and his two sons have not returned home for several months.
Chu Zheng saw that he didn't seem interested in Chu Mingtang's things that Zhao Qi gave him, and he didn't realize it was a little strange. That map was fine, but those spies Chu Mingtang didn't even bother to ask about it.
So I picked up the secret letters and read them again
Chu Zheng leaned his head and thought for a while: Could it be that my father already knows this?
Chu Mingtang looked at him with great interest: How can you see it?
Chu Zheng pointed to one of the secret letters and said: The father of other people can ignore it because they are all in Pingyuan City, but this person is a captain in the army, and his father doesn't care about him either. That can only be said that he had known about this, or that he was originally the father who asked him to contact Nanqi.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Not bad
Northern Zhao and Southern Qi have not had any war for many years, and the navy on both sides of the straits did not have much hostility. Instead, they secretly trafficked some items from the other side. After Chu Mingtang took office, he did not prohibit this. However, he took all these channels into his own hands. Chu Mingtang did not fully fed his personal pockets. The officers of the Southern Camp basically benefited the interests of the Southern Camp. By the time Emperor Ming of Zhao noticed it, the Southern Camp had become Chu Mingtang's homeland and could not be poured into it.
Chu Mingtang was quite happy to see Chu Zheng so quickly.
Chu Zheng is smart by nature and often has amazing words when he reads various schools of thought. Some Chu Mingtang has never heard of it, but it makes sense when he thinks about it carefully. Therefore, although he spoiled Chu Zheng, his expectations for him are far greater than Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan.
Chu Mingtang thought to himself that since this child is very human, he cannot treat him normally. This time, he may be very beneficial to him.
The next morning, Zhao Qi left without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter in the tent, which read Chu Xuan personally opened
Chu Zheng and Chu Yuan handed the letter to Chu Xuan
After reading the letter, Chu Xuan felt mixed feelings in his heart, he was not completely ruthless towards Zhao Qi, but she was the princess after all. Since her parents had made a marriage for him, he had to give up.
Chu Mingtang sat in a deep sadness, his face as deep as water
Lin Fengyan, who lost all martial arts last night, could not be tortured, and finally got it. Prince E of Southern Qi and E realized that the movements of the Northern Zhao army were somewhat suspicious and was ready to dispatch troops to support the navy.
Chu Mingtang felt a little regretful. Maybe he should have taken action a few days ago, and he shouldn't have waited for the Black Cavalry.
Chu Mingtang's move is also a risky move
Like the Western Qin, the military achievements of North Zhao are far greater than other achievements. Before entering the country, Chu Mingtang had to strive for greater reputation and could only attack the 50,000 naval troops on the other side.
If he succeeded, he would have achievements comparable to Guo Huai's in northern Xinjiang, and he would add the heaviest weight to the path of taking over the sect leader of the Chu Mansion.
However, it is also a good thing that the Black Cavalry has arrived, greatly enhancing the strength of the Southern Front Camp.
Southern Qi has always been dominated by infantry and navy. If this black cavalry was allowed to rush on the plains, even the 100,000 Southern Qi troops might not be able to stop them.
Chu Zheng stood solemnly beside Chu Mingtang, but his childish face made the general in the tent really funny
Although Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan were also in the cavalry army, they were officers of the lieutenant, and they were well-trained and well-supported by soldiers. But this young master is too young, right?
Only Chu Luoshui, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo had no intention of contempt for Chu Zheng. Chu Zheng's loud shout of stopping the Black Cavalry on the roadside lasted for several miles, which was not something that ordinary children could do.
Everyone
Chu Mingtang glanced at the generals under the tent and said in a stern manner: Southern Qi's departure took advantage of the danger and colluded with Western Qin, with the intention of not being good to our dynasty. We have been deeply favored by the emperor for many years. We should serve the Great Zhao with a vow to die. Yesterday, General Chu of the Black Cavalry arrested a spy from the Southern Qi. After the deputy commander Wang interrogated overnight, we learned that Southern Qi would draw troops from all over the place to the navy and prepare to attack our Great Zhao and Great Zhao in danger. There were Hu Man in the north and Western Qin in the west. Our southern front camp will face the attack of the Southern Qi alone. Generals, can we retreat?
No, there is a loud roar in the tent
OK, Chu Mingtang said, the commander and the two deputy commanders discussed for several days and decided to take the initiative to defeat the Southern Qi Navy while the reinforcements from various southern Qi have not arrived yet!
There was a sudden stir in the tent
The generals of the Southern Camp did not expect that Chu Mingtang would take action first
The Black Cavalry Army Chu Luoshui, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo looked at each other, feeling quite satisfied
The Black Cavalry galloped across the battlefield in the northern border, and they were besieged. What they respected was not a gentle general, but a decisive commander.
Chu Mingtang looked around the generals, and all the officers below the deputy general came out of the tent and waited for the Black Cavalry General Chu and three others to stay.
Nearly half a person went out of the tent, Chu Mingtang ordered the guards to expand the map: Please see, my Great Zhao and Southern Qi are across the river, and it will take nearly an hour to reach the other side. Although the Black Cavalry is the most elite unit of my Great Zhao, they are used to fighting in the northern desert, and most of them do not recognize the nature of water. Even if they rush to the other side by boat, they are afraid that the soldiers will be unable to respond due to seasickness. If the Southern Qi counterattack, our troops will suffer heavy casualties.
Chu Luoshui and the other two were speechless, knowing that what Chu Mingtang said was true
After the Black Cavalry set up camp yesterday, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo had never been to the riverside. They were very excited and took a tour of the warship. Although the storm in the river was not big, the two of them vomited a lot on the boat. After getting off the boat, they got heavy and light. It took them a long time to recover.
Chu Mingtang felt a little at ease when he saw the three of them agreeing.
The Black Cavalry has always been very arrogant. Although Chu Luoshui respects him more, the soldiers below may not take him seriously. He cannot use any fierce means to use this military, so he can only comfort him so that he can use it.
Chu Mingtang continued: In this way, our army has to find another way. Please see. About 80 miles down the river from our army's garrison, there is a village called Jinjiang Village. The other side is close to the intersection of Southern Qi and Eastern Wu. Although the river surface is slightly wider, the water flow is not fast. Southern Qi only set up about one battalion of troops here, with a total of more than 2,000 people. Tonight, our army set out, and all small and medium-sized boats arrived here. At night, the night of the morning, they transported all 10,000 cavalry, 5,000 navy, and 10,000 black cavalry to the other side.
As soon as Chu Mingtang said this, the tent was in an uproar. The general Liu Qishan couldn't help but step forward: Commander, Southern Qi has always been closely guarded along the river, and the battalions echo each other. Once something happens, they will immediately call the beacon fire. I am afraid that our army has not yet arrived, and the Southern Qi army is ready to fight.
All the generals said that it was true, and they all believed that Chu Mingtang's move was not feasible.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: You don’t know that the captain of the Southern Qi army in this camp is my Da Zhao family. He has been in Southern Qi for many years. Three days ago, five hundred soldiers of our army had crossed the river and entered this camp in the name of the reinforcements of the Southern Qi.
This is the real reliance on Chu Mingtang's attack on the Southern Qi Dynasty.
This move was set up by Chu Mingtang five years ago
When Chu Mingtang was the commander of the southern line camp, he began to bribe and dispatch a large number of meticulous works to the Southern Qi Dynasty. Through meticulous works, he quickly figured out the defense of the river along the other side.
By chance, a merchant ship from Bei Zhao brought back two Southern Qi mates. After finding out the details, they killed the two of them and disguised themselves as thieves to slaughter the fishing village.
Chu Mingtang picked two officers from the cavalry army and went to Nanqi with the ship.
When the fishing village was destroyed, the two people went to the local government to report to the officials
Seeing that their family was destroyed, the officials thought they were pitiful, so they recommended them to the Southern Qi Shui Shi.
The two were originally officers, and they were very skilled in martial arts. They were generous and knew how to be filial. They were soon reused.
One of them was sent to the military camp on the border of Qi and Wu to serve as a lieutenant.
When Chu Mingtang learned about it, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered the person not to move rashly.
The captain drank and had fun with the soldiers in the camp all day long. Even if someone found something abnormal on the other side, he would suppress it.
After hearing what Chu Mingtang said about this, the generals in the tent admired Chu Mingtang's foresight and thoughts. The generals in the southern front line all came out to praise the Chu commander's plan before the battle and his ability to use troops.
Chu Mingtang smiled and Chu Zheng stood behind her back and looked at her father with admiration. It turned out that this father was such a powerful person, but why couldn't he see it in front of his mother?
Chu Mingtang suddenly pressed his hand in vain, and the tent suddenly became silent. Chu Mingtang said: Liu Qishan, Chu Luoshui obeys the order!
The two of them left the list at the same time and said: The last one will be in
You two lead 10,000 cavalrymen and 10,000 black cavalrymen to set off at the hour of You today. Be sure to arrive at Jinjiang Village before Xu hour, camp and rest on the spot, be careful. If there are idle people waiting to approach, kill the 5,000 naval troops are waiting there. To board the ship tomorrow night, each rider will bring dry food and horse materials for two days.
Wang Mingyuan obeyed the order!
The last one will be there!
General Wang, after you go down, you can rectify your troops, and rest during the day tomorrow, leave the shore on time at night, and before Mao, you must reach five miles of the south bank. When you hear the cannons, you will attack the Southern Qi Water Division with all your might.
Finally, I will obey the order!
Chu Mingtang asked the generals in the tent to order the military orders
After receiving the order, most of them showed joy. Chu Mingtang was surprised by this battle and planned it carefully.
If Southern Qi is completely unprepared, he will definitely suffer a big loss
The southern camp has not had any war for many years, and most generals are promoted step by step, which is relatively slow.
Both are partial generals, Chu Luoshui is only twenty-seven years old, while Liu Qishan is over forty years old
If this battle is won, most of the generals in the tent can be upgraded several levels in a row.
The tent suddenly became lively
Chu Mingtang looked at it and couldn't help but snorted. Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked straight ahead.
Chu Mingtang's eyes flew over the faces of the generals one by one, and said with a grim voice: This war requires the cooperation of the generals. This commander said that it is ahead. No matter which general under the tent fails to be in place on time or fails to fight, kill Wuhuai even if you die on the battlefield, your family will go to the border to be exiled.
All the generals have followed Chu Mingtang for many years. Knowing that what he said is true, they suddenly felt cold all over their bodies.
Chu Mingtang waved his hand: Let's go down, General Liu Qishan stayed first
After the generals went out, Chu Mingtang pondered for a while and said to Liu Qishan: Qishan, you will cooperate with the Black Cavalry Army in the Northern Frontier this time, pay more attention to the Black Cavalry Army's arrogance and difficulty in controlling it. Luoshui is the nephew of this official clan. You can discuss it with him. There must be no disagreement between the two armies.
Liu Qishan bowed and said: Please rest assured, the general will understand it.
Chu Ming closed his eyes and said: That's good, Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan are all under your tent, take them with you, and lead a battalion together, you don't have to care too much about them
Liu Qishan secretly complained in his heart: If something happens to them, can I still have the life to stay in the camp on the southern front line, but I dare not refuse to obey, so I had to take the order and go.
Chu Mingtang thought silently: Wealth and honor are in danger, Xuan'er Yuan'er, it depends on your real ability.
Liu Qishan and Chu Luoshui stood side by side, and the 20,000 Great Zhao cavalry have basically landed
According to the book written by Chu Mingtang, they did not go to the barracks on the south bank, but were in a forest by the river about five miles away.
Chu Luoshui suddenly asked: Commander Chu has never fought a war before
Liu Qishan nodded and said: It's Ah. I heard that Commander Chu and Minister of War Guo were the top scholars of civil and military in the same year as my Great Zhao. Before he came to Pingyuan County to serve as the prefect, he was the Minister of Personnel and had always been a civil servant.
Chu Luoshuidao: But his mind is so careful and his use of military intelligence. I am afraid that even Lord Guo will feel ashamed of himself. Sometimes I think they are very similar, with elegant manners and extraordinary demeanor. But the difference is that Lord Guo won the love of all the soldiers in the northern border that year, and loved soldiers like his sons, shared joys and sorrows with soldiers, and led the way when facing the enemy. Lord Chu was extremely brave... He looked at Liu Qishan and said: Unpredictable
Liu Qishan thought to himself: It is not only unfathomable, but also cruel and ruthless.
When Chu Mingtang came to serve as the commander of the Southern Front, most veterans did not take him seriously. But in less than a month, Chu Mingtang sent his two former deputy commanders to the Ministry of War for retirement. He used thunder to eliminate dissidents, demoted those who were demoted, and transferred those who were transferred. What's worse is that some people disappeared inexplicably.
In less than a year, the generals of the southern camp saw him and didn't even dare to show off their anger.
But he didn't dare to tell Chu Luoshui these things, after all, the friendship is still shallow, let alone the person in front of him is still the nephew of the commander.
The lieutenant in charge of the alert came to report, the person in charge of the reception was here
Liu Qishan asked: What is the situation in the camp
Everything is ready. Captain Chen pretended to bully us. We are newly arrived reinforcements. The people who stood on the post tonight were from our southern camp. Captain Chen drank with them until late at night and had just fallen asleep.
Liu Qishan said to Chu Luoshui: General Chu, your black cavalry rest here first, I will just take the cavalry over there.
About half an hour later, Liu Qishan sent his troops to lead the Black Cavalry. At this time, it was already dawn.
Liu Qishan was on a slope, and Chu Luoshui rode his horse to him and asked: Lord Liu, what is the situation in the camp?
Liu Qishan smiled and said: It was even smoother than expected. The Captain Chen sprinkled anesthetics into several large jars of wine. When our army rushed in, we did not encounter any resistance at all.
He was originally going to enter the camp, but when he thought of Chu Mingtang's instructions, he thought it would be better to wait for Chu Luoshui to enter together here.
An officer ran out of the camp and dismounted in front of the two of them and said, "The two generals have been cleaned up in the camp, and a total of 1,825 soldiers from the Southern Qi Dynasty were captured. Two generals were invited to the camp.
Chu Luoshui sounded familiar, but when he looked closely, it was Chu Yuan and said in surprise: Xiaoyuan, why are you here too
Chu Yuan smiled and said: Not only me, but the eldest brother is here, so Deputy General Lin asked me to ask the two generals for instructions on how to deal with these Southern Qi soldiers.
The two looked at each other, and Chu Luoshui jumped with his left eyebrows and said in a stern manner: Kill
Chu Yuanyiyi: Are they all killed? That's nearly 2,000 people. Subconsciously, he looked at Liu Qishan again
Liu Qishan said with no expression: Notify Deputy General Lin to find a reason to ask the Southern Qi soldiers to dig a big hole, shoot it with archers, and then buried it.
Chu Luoshui suddenly said again: It may be useful to remove the military uniforms of the Southern Qi soldiers before digging a hole.
Chu Yuanxiang looked at it for a long time as if he didn't know the two of them, and then turned around and returned to the camp.
Liu Qishan suddenly laughed and said: The second young master may be frightened, but we have no extra troops to guard these Southern Qi people.
Chu Luoshui said lightly: After this battle, he may understand.
The two entered the camp and sat down in the house they had packed for them, Chu Xuan led one person in and said: Two generals, this person is Chen Xiaowei.
The two stood up at the same time, Liu Qishan looked at the Captain Chen, and suddenly burst into laughter: Isn't this Chen Zishan? It turns out it's you.
The Captain Chen also smiled and saluted to the two of them: Chen Zishan has met two generals
Chu Luoshui returned a bow, but Liu Qishan walked up and punched Chen Zishan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: I thought you were... dead.
Chen Zishan was originally a subordinate of Liu Qishan, and he loved both civil and military affairs.
Liu Qishan was transferred to another position after he appointed a deputy general.
Five years ago, Chu Mingtang killed a group of people for the crime of colluding with the enemy, and Chen Zishan was also among them. When Liu Qishan learned about it, he sighed for it. Unexpectedly, he actually went to Nanqi.
I heard from Commander Chu that you came over in total. Who is the other person? Do I know each other?
Chen Zishan: That man is doing better than me in the army. He has left the navy and went to the capital of Qiguo.
Liu Qishan was shocked and his face suddenly sank: You should never say this to this general.
Chen Zishan was startled and didn't dare to say anything again
Seeing that the atmosphere in the house was a little awkward, Chu Luoshui said: Captain Chen endured humiliation in Southern Qi. He lurked for many years and won the battle. If he wins this battle, Captain Chen will be the first minister, the commander of Chu, who ordered me to arrive in Southern Qi. After you arrive in Southern Qi, you will arrange the marching route to the emergency situation. Can Captain Chen explain to me?
Liu Qishan also felt that he was talking a little harder just now, and apologized to Chen Zishan.
Chen Zishan took out a silk map from his arms and spread it on the table, saying: Two generals, please see, from here, there are about ninety miles to the Southern Qi Navy Camp, and there are two troops stationed in Southern Qi, each with nearly 2,000 officers and soldiers. Otherwise, they would have been discovered. These two military camps may ignite beacons at any time, and the message can be transmitted to the Southern Qi Camp in an instant. If they are not discovered, our army can hide in a forest ten miles away from the Southern Qi Camp, which can accommodate 20,000 cavalry and launch an attack on the Southern Qi Camp at any time.
Chu Luoshui suddenly asked: How far is the military camp closer to the Navy Camp from the camp?
Chen Zishan replied: About thirty miles
Chu Luoshui continued to ask: What is the farthest distance that the beacon can reach at night?
Liu Qishan and Chu Xuan's eyes lit up next to him
Chen Zishan thought and said: Even if the beacon fire reaches its extreme, it should not exceed forty-five miles.
Liu Qishan said: First, send troops to remove the military camp that is closer to the Navy Camp. Then, even if our army set out from here, even if another military camp is discovered, it will not be able to notify the Navy Camp in time.
Chu Luoshui shook his head and said: General Liu, when our army arrives at the forest ten miles away from the Navy camp, we must take a break. If the remaining military camp is released, there will be no response after the beacon fire, we must be suspicious. We must send someone to report to the Navy camp. Even if our army intercepts with all our strength, there will inevitably be fish that will escape. So we want to lead a part of the Black Cavalry to put on the military uniforms of the Southern Qi cavalry. At Si Shi, we will set off at 3:00 and arrive at the barracks close to the Navy camp at normal marching speed. Please ask General Liu to take the remaining troops and horses to attack these two barracks at the same time with our troops at the same time, and make sure not to leave a living mouth. Then the two units will meet in the forest ten miles away from the Navy camp.
Liu Qishan thought about it and thought it was feasible, so he would just destroy these two military camps at the same time.
Chen Zishan smiled and said: Since General Chu wants to dress up as the Southern Qi army, there is still a treasure here at the Xiaguan.
As he said that, he took out something from the case and said: This is the seal of the Southern Qi Ministry of War engraved by the Xiaguan privately. It is very vivid. Previously, five hundred people from Dazhao entered this camp, and asked the official he gave him to make a letter to the Ministry of War immediately and sealed it with fire paint. Perhaps General Chu could use it.
Chu Luoshui said happily: Then it will be a blessing for Captain Chen.
He said to Liu Qishan again: Please ask General Liu to allocate the next thousand people from the cavalry army, led by Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan. After all, we soldiers in the northern border are not as good as those of the Southern Qi people, and it will inevitably cause doubts.
Liu Qishan was stunned and was about to refuse, but then he thought that these black cavalry soldiers were extremely brave and Chu Luoshui was their cousin again, so he would naturally do his best to protect them. Perhaps it was safer than being by his side, so he agreed.
The spring in Jiangnan is filled with warm sunshine, making people drowsy
A veteran at the camp gate yawned lazily, and suddenly felt a sharp pain like a burning fire on his body. The veteran screamed and jumped up
I saw an eighteen or nineteen-year-old officer riding on a horse, holding a whip in his hand, and shouting angrily: Is this how your navy keeps his guard?
The man next to him quickly saluted the young man: It's not your sir, you are...
The young man looked arrogant and took out a letter from his arms and raised it at the two of them: At the order of Lord Jiang of the Ministry of War, General Chen of our army will take over the military camp here. After saying that, one person gave another whip: Go away
The navy officers and soldiers in the camp suddenly broke in with three or three, and were at a loss and went to the side.
The young man held the reins in his hand and shouted loudly: Where is your Captain Wu? Come out quickly and receive the order of Lord Jiang from the Ministry of War
An untidy officer ran out of the tent in a panic and replied: "The official is here."
The young man threw the letter of the army to him and said: According to the order of the Ministry of War, General Chen will take over this camp
The officer looked at the seal of the Ministry of War on the letter, which seemed to be true, but he was a little confused. Why did the Navy Camp never inform this?
In the cavalry team, Chu Luoshui pointed at the high beacon tower and whispered to Chu Xuan: Take ten people over quietly, be sure to shoot two people on the high platform.
Chu Xuan took the order and took the soldiers of the ten black cavalry and quietly covered the platform, saying: Ten people are divided into two groups, each shooting at one person, and one blow must be fatal.
Ten people dispersed, opened their bows and arrows, and shot them out. The two of them screamed and fell to the ground.
The officer was shocked and was about to shout that there was an enemy, but he felt a heat in his throat. However, Xia Mo, behind Chu Luoshui, shot through his throat with an arrow.
Chu Yuan saw the murderer for the first time in his life. He looked at the officer in front of him holding an arrow, his eyes protruding, and he screamed. His mind was in chaos. He suddenly pulled out his waist and roared, and rushed towards the soldiers of the Southern Qi Dynasty.
Chu Luoshui was startled and said to Xia Mo beside him: These two are my cousins. You can quickly bring people to follow you, and you must protect them.
Xia Mo tied the reins and said with a smile: Don't worry, brother, this matter is for me.
The black cavalry was raging in the camp like a wolf or a tiger. The Southern Qi army resisted a few times in panic and soon collapsed.
A thousand cavalry guarded the camp gate, and the black cavalry team was in groups of ten, sniping in an orderly manner, extremely relaxed
The screams in the camp gradually became sparse, and Chu Luoshui called Xia Mo: I ordered some people to search within a radius of five miles, and I must not let anyone go
Chu Yuanmuran sat on the horse, with a lot of blood splashed on his body. He didn't know how many people he had killed, but only remembered that he kept chasing those panicked Southern Qi people, constantly swinging his swords, and then he kept screaming...
Suddenly, my shoulders sank, and I heard Chu Luoshui say: Xiaoyuan, are you okay?
Chu Yuanqiang smiled: It's okay
Chu Luoshui pulled Chu Zheng over and stared at him and said, "I'm about the first time I killed someone and I'm confused. But this is on the battlefield. You either die or I die. You can't be ruthless. Otherwise, the person who dies will be you. If you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to participate in the evening.
Chu Yuan straightened his waist and said: No, Luo Ge, I'm much better. These are things that I have to experience. Luo Ge doesn't have to worry too much.
Chu Luoshui's eyes showed admiration and said: OK, when you charge at night, you and your brother try to follow me and let the people of Southern Qi see how powerful our three Chu brothers are.
Chu Yuan was so proud that he said that he suddenly became proud and said with a smile: Yes, let them know that it’s a pity that Xiao Zheng is still young, otherwise we would be the four brothers.
Chu Luoshui shook his head secretly, thinking that if that kid was by his side, he wouldn't have to worry so much.
Chu Mingtang stood on the deck, and Chu Zheng was standing beside him.
Vice Commander Wang on the front line reported that our army had been found on the Nanqi Navy Camp and was boarding the ship
Chu Mingtang's pupils shrank slightly, and he was waiting for this opportunity
Pass on, click the cannon
Hearing the cannon, the Zhao Navy began to advance, and the ship speed gradually accelerated.
In the woods outside the Southern Qi Navy Camp, Chu Luoshui and Liu Qishan respectively sent orders: Charge
Soon, the Navy Camp was vaguely visible, and Chu Luoshui said: Unlock the condom of the horse's mouth
More than 20,000 horses had been holding back for a long time, and they were clamoring in unison. Many people looked over and watched. Suddenly, one person shouted: It's a cavalry, a cavalry of Zhao State!
Close the camp gate and shoot the arrows
The black cavalry raised the round shield in a diagonal manner, not caring about it. The sparse rain of arrows was far worse than Hu Man's. The loose fence of the Southern Qi camp could not stop the tall horses under the black cavalry. They rushed into the navy camp in the blink of an eye.
Most of the people in the Southern Qi Navy Camp had just been transferred to the riverside, and all that were left were the old, weak and remnants. The black cavalry rushed back and forth like a plow, set off a few more fires, gathered again, and rushed towards the riverside.
On the way, I met a team from Southern Qi
It turned out that the navy officers and soldiers who went to the riverside camp found that the camp was lit up in the sky. The generals led the team knew something was wrong and hurriedly ordered two thousand people to return to the camp to support.
He only thought it was a small group of sneak attack troops from Bei Zhao, but he didn't expect that there were tens of thousands of people coming, and he met halfway through it.
After half an hour of fighting, there were still eight or nine thousand people in the Southern Qi navy, but they were completely powerless. Seeing that the enemy troops in front and behind were all lit their bows and arrows at them, they felt that the situation was hopeless and no longer resisted, and they all raised their hands to surrender.
After simply cleaning up the battlefield, Liu Qishan and Chu Luoshui discussed it. The Black Cavalry was not convinced and stayed on the shore to guard the prisoners of war. The Ten Thousand Cavalry was carefully selected by Chu Mingtang, and most of them were roughly used to control the ship.
With the order, Liu Qishan dismounted and boarded the boat that had not yet taken off by the Nanqi River.
Seeing a fire in the backyard, the Navy of Southern Qi suddenly became panicked, and the Northern Zhao army led by Wang Ming took the opportunity to attack.
The Navy of Southern Qi had no intention of fighting. Seeing that the situation was unstoppable, the generals had no choice but to order a breakout and sail to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
Ninety miles east of the riverside daying, Orie Village
Chen Shangzhi, another deputy commander of the Southern Front Camp, walked back and forth in the cabin. He was about 45 or 46 years old, with a purple-red face. He looked like a man who grew up from the riverside.
Chen Shangzhi knew that after the battle, Commander Chu would go to the court to go to the commander of the southern front camp, of course, Wang Mingyuan belonged to him. This time, he led the navy, so he naturally accumulated military merits for him.
Report to the deputy commander, the Southern Qi Navy was defeated and was fleeing to us
Chen Shangzhi stood on the deck and saw that the two armies had formed an encirclement against the Southern Qi Navy. He smiled and said to the people around him: It seems that the Southern Qi people are doomed this time.
A captain sighed: It's a pity that so many ships burned a fire
Chen Shangzhi scolded: What do you know? If it weren't for this fire, the Southern Qi navy went downstream and was about to burn the boats. How could our army alone stop the ships? What's the matter? This battle won. There were so many ships from the Southern Qi navy, and you would have enough to divide one by one.
As he said that, Chen Shangzhi couldn't help but laugh
Looking into the distance, Chen Shangzhi said: Let's go and ask Vice Commander Wang for a drink. After winning such a big victory, he should treat him well.
You are too brave and act recklessly, not serving your mother at home, so why are you here to do this?
It's just that I've been serving too much, so I came to you. Chu Zheng thought to himself
The child misses his father, Chu Zheng said
Chu Zheng looked a little pitiful, no wonder he had crawled through the pile of firewood, climbed over the trees, and fought with people again. He was dirty all over. Before Chu Mingtang came in, he tore up a few more holes in his clothes and deliberately made some soil on the ground and applied it to his face.
Chu Mingtang scolded him, but he didn't feel a little distressed when he looked like this. He thought he had suffered a lot along the way, so he couldn't help but lose his anger.
Nonsense! Well, stay here tonight and I'll be here for my father tomorrow and I'll send you back to Pingyuan City
Chu Zheng was anxious: Father, the child won't go back
Chu Mingtang is so stern, he is about to get angry again
Father, the child is already thirteen this year, no longer a ignorant child. In ancient times, Gan Luo was twelve years old and was appointed as the prime minister. Although the child dared not compare with his predecessors, father, you won’t want the child to always be happy with his parents. The two brothers have joined the army, and the child will always grow up.
Having said that, Chu Mingtang said, but this is the battlefield of war between the two countries. If the sword is eyeless, how can your mother feel at ease
Chu Zheng smiled and said: Father, you are the general of Zhao State and are good at using troops. Although the two armies are fighting, if there is still danger in your tent, the emperor will not let you be the commander.
When Chu Mingtang heard it, he couldn't help but smile, thinking that this child is smart by nature, so it's not bad to see more here.
OK, then you stay, but don't run around, report everything to my father
Chu Zheng was overjoyed: Thank you, father
At this time, the guard came to report that Princess Qi asked for a meeting
Chu Mingtang didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly said: Please
Zhao Qi walked in, her eyes still slightly red
Chu Mingtang heard Chu Yuan say something roughly and understood what was going on, but he could only pretend not to know and went forward to salute and said: "Chu Mingtang, please see the princess."
Zhao Qi returned the courtesy: Lord Chu, you are polite. You have known your father for many years. If you love brothers, just call me a niece.
Zhao Qi followed two black cavalry soldiers, who dragged Lin Fengyan and pushed him in front of Chu Mingtang.
Lin Fengyan didn't even look at Chu Mingtang, but just stared at Chu Zheng, his eyes seemed to be about to spit out fire.
He was also a master in the martial arts world of Southern Qi, but he didn't expect that the gutter would capsize and fall into the hands of Chu Zheng, a child, really made him extremely angry.
Zhao Qi said to Chu Mingtang: Lord Chu, this man's name is Lin Fengyan, he is a child of the Lin family in the martial arts south of Jiangnan. This time he sneaked into my Da Zhao to spy on military information. This man's martial arts skills are very powerful. His niece and Prince Ling work together to capture him, and now he is handed over to Lord Chu.
Chu Lingtang glanced at Chu Zheng and thought to himself that the princess was too polite. What kind of strength can Chu Zheng do, so
He didn't play with martial arts, and always thought that Chu Zheng had only been a teacher for several years before he could get started. He had no idea that his son had already entered the ranks of masters in martial arts.
Zhao Qi took out the map and secret letters found from Lin Fengyan from her arms and handed them to Chu Mingtang.
Chu Mingtang looked at it, moved, and bowed to Zhao Qi: The princess captured this thief, which is a great achievement. If these secret reports are really sent to the Southern Qi, the consequences will be unimaginable. The lower official said that the princess would be grateful to the princess on behalf of the southern front.
Zhao Qi replied: "You are polite, Lord Chu, my niece is also a great Zhao Zimin. It was supposed to contribute to the great Zhao."
The two of them were kind, Chu Mingtang said: It was getting late today. Please ask the princess to be in the camp for one night and start back to Pingyuan City tomorrow to avoid the prince’s concern.
Zhao Qi looked at Chu Mingtang, with a squinted expression, and she wanted to speak but stopped.
Chu Mingtang hurriedly said: If the princess has something to say, please tell me
Lord Chu, my niece wants to stay in the military camp for a few more days, but I don’t know if it’s convenient.
Zhao Qi was extremely conflicted. She had a good impression of Chu Xuan since she was a child, but she didn't want to leave home for a year. When she came back, Chu Xuan was engaged to others. Although she was completely disappointed at that time, she was a little reluctant to leave now if she really wanted her to leave here.
Chu Zheng was excited and there would be a good show in the future. It seems that the princess still has no love for her elder brother.
When Chu Mingtang heard this, he felt a little embarrassed. Why did Zhao Qi leave him with all his knowledge? But not to mention that there are many unknown secrets in this war, so it is hard to say: The princess should know that according to the law of the Great Zhao Kingdom, the royal family members must participate in the war, and the emperor's imperial edict is required.
Zhao Qi took off a peach from his waist and handed it to Chu Mingtang: Lord Chu, I wonder if this can be used?
Chu Mingtang saw it and was slightly surprised. This was Zilongjue, the exclusive exclusive to the emperor's special envoy, and had the power to kill prefectures and counties.
This purple dragon jue is clearly not something that Changping Palace can have. Princes enthroned in various counties are not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, let alone Zhao Qi is just a princess.
Is it true that this is related to Zhao Qi’s master as Mrs.
Chu Mingtang felt that he had been a little careless over the years. There was a person in Pingyuan City who secretly held the purple dragon bree and did not notice it.
If Emperor Ming of Zhao wants to attack him, Zhao Qi can use this piece of Zilongjue to pull half of the subordinate officials in his county
Unexpectedly, the princess was still the leader of Zi Longjue. Chu Mingtang politely said to Zhao Qi, but Zi Longjue had only the right to dissuade the subordinates, but no right to block them. If the princess wanted to stay in the army for a long time, she still had to issue an order from the emperor.
Zhao Qi showed Zilongjue, Chu Mingtang couldn't let her stay
Zhao Qi also knew that what Chu Mingtang said was true, so she had no choice but to say helplessly: My niece has bothered Lord Chu.
Chu Mingtang asked the guard to take Zhao Qi to the camp to rest. Chu Zheng looked at Zhao Qi Luomo's back and felt a little helpless, but he had no choice. Besides, the eldest brother didn't like her very much. It was good that he had long pain and pain.
Chu Mingtang carefully looked at what Zhao Qi gave him and felt a little uneasy. Did Nanqi notice some of his plans?
This is a bit tricky
Chu Mingtang pointed at Lin Fengyan and said to the guards: Leave this person to Deputy Commander Wang and question it strictly
Wait, Chu Zheng walked over and said, "This man was very rude to this young master along the way, and I will give him some pain later. Chu Zheng secretly accompanies internal energy and kicks Lin Fengyan's dantian."
Lin Fengyan secretly healed his injuries along the way, and his injuries were half healed. He was about to rush to the acupoint with all his strength, but Chu Zheng kicked him and his previous efforts were wasted. Thirty years of hard work suddenly turned into nothing.
Lin Fengyan is the real thoughts
Chu Mingtang asked Chu Zheng about his family's recent situation. After all, he and his two sons have not returned home for several months.
Chu Zheng saw that he didn't seem interested in Chu Mingtang's things that Zhao Qi gave him, and he didn't realize it was a little strange. That map was fine, but those spies Chu Mingtang didn't even bother to ask about it.
So I picked up the secret letters and read them again
Chu Zheng leaned his head and thought for a while: Could it be that my father already knows this?
Chu Mingtang looked at him with great interest: How can you see it?
Chu Zheng pointed to one of the secret letters and said: The father of other people can ignore it because they are all in Pingyuan City, but this person is a captain in the army, and his father doesn't care about him either. That can only be said that he had known about this, or that he was originally the father who asked him to contact Nanqi.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: Not bad
Northern Zhao and Southern Qi have not had any war for many years, and the navy on both sides of the straits did not have much hostility. Instead, they secretly trafficked some items from the other side. After Chu Mingtang took office, he did not prohibit this. However, he took all these channels into his own hands. Chu Mingtang did not fully fed his personal pockets. The officers of the Southern Camp basically benefited the interests of the Southern Camp. By the time Emperor Ming of Zhao noticed it, the Southern Camp had become Chu Mingtang's homeland and could not be poured into it.
Chu Mingtang was quite happy to see Chu Zheng so quickly.
Chu Zheng is smart by nature and often has amazing words when he reads various schools of thought. Some Chu Mingtang has never heard of it, but it makes sense when he thinks about it carefully. Therefore, although he spoiled Chu Zheng, his expectations for him are far greater than Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan.
Chu Mingtang thought to himself that since this child is very human, he cannot treat him normally. This time, he may be very beneficial to him.
The next morning, Zhao Qi left without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter in the tent, which read Chu Xuan personally opened
Chu Zheng and Chu Yuan handed the letter to Chu Xuan
After reading the letter, Chu Xuan felt mixed feelings in his heart, he was not completely ruthless towards Zhao Qi, but she was the princess after all. Since her parents had made a marriage for him, he had to give up.
Chu Mingtang sat in a deep sadness, his face as deep as water
Lin Fengyan, who lost all martial arts last night, could not be tortured, and finally got it. Prince E of Southern Qi and E realized that the movements of the Northern Zhao army were somewhat suspicious and was ready to dispatch troops to support the navy.
Chu Mingtang felt a little regretful. Maybe he should have taken action a few days ago, and he shouldn't have waited for the Black Cavalry.
Chu Mingtang's move is also a risky move
Like the Western Qin, the military achievements of North Zhao are far greater than other achievements. Before entering the country, Chu Mingtang had to strive for greater reputation and could only attack the 50,000 naval troops on the other side.
If he succeeded, he would have achievements comparable to Guo Huai's in northern Xinjiang, and he would add the heaviest weight to the path of taking over the sect leader of the Chu Mansion.
However, it is also a good thing that the Black Cavalry has arrived, greatly enhancing the strength of the Southern Front Camp.
Southern Qi has always been dominated by infantry and navy. If this black cavalry was allowed to rush on the plains, even the 100,000 Southern Qi troops might not be able to stop them.
Chu Zheng stood solemnly beside Chu Mingtang, but his childish face made the general in the tent really funny
Although Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan were also in the cavalry army, they were officers of the lieutenant, and they were well-trained and well-supported by soldiers. But this young master is too young, right?
Only Chu Luoshui, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo had no intention of contempt for Chu Zheng. Chu Zheng's loud shout of stopping the Black Cavalry on the roadside lasted for several miles, which was not something that ordinary children could do.
Everyone
Chu Mingtang glanced at the generals under the tent and said in a stern manner: Southern Qi's departure took advantage of the danger and colluded with Western Qin, with the intention of not being good to our dynasty. We have been deeply favored by the emperor for many years. We should serve the Great Zhao with a vow to die. Yesterday, General Chu of the Black Cavalry arrested a spy from the Southern Qi. After the deputy commander Wang interrogated overnight, we learned that Southern Qi would draw troops from all over the place to the navy and prepare to attack our Great Zhao and Great Zhao in danger. There were Hu Man in the north and Western Qin in the west. Our southern front camp will face the attack of the Southern Qi alone. Generals, can we retreat?
No, there is a loud roar in the tent
OK, Chu Mingtang said, the commander and the two deputy commanders discussed for several days and decided to take the initiative to defeat the Southern Qi Navy while the reinforcements from various southern Qi have not arrived yet!
There was a sudden stir in the tent
The generals of the Southern Camp did not expect that Chu Mingtang would take action first
The Black Cavalry Army Chu Luoshui, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo looked at each other, feeling quite satisfied
The Black Cavalry galloped across the battlefield in the northern border, and they were besieged. What they respected was not a gentle general, but a decisive commander.
Chu Mingtang looked around the generals, and all the officers below the deputy general came out of the tent and waited for the Black Cavalry General Chu and three others to stay.
Nearly half a person went out of the tent, Chu Mingtang ordered the guards to expand the map: Please see, my Great Zhao and Southern Qi are across the river, and it will take nearly an hour to reach the other side. Although the Black Cavalry is the most elite unit of my Great Zhao, they are used to fighting in the northern desert, and most of them do not recognize the nature of water. Even if they rush to the other side by boat, they are afraid that the soldiers will be unable to respond due to seasickness. If the Southern Qi counterattack, our troops will suffer heavy casualties.
Chu Luoshui and the other two were speechless, knowing that what Chu Mingtang said was true
After the Black Cavalry set up camp yesterday, Zhou Han'an and Xia Mo had never been to the riverside. They were very excited and took a tour of the warship. Although the storm in the river was not big, the two of them vomited a lot on the boat. After getting off the boat, they got heavy and light. It took them a long time to recover.
Chu Mingtang felt a little at ease when he saw the three of them agreeing.
The Black Cavalry has always been very arrogant. Although Chu Luoshui respects him more, the soldiers below may not take him seriously. He cannot use any fierce means to use this military, so he can only comfort him so that he can use it.
Chu Mingtang continued: In this way, our army has to find another way. Please see. About 80 miles down the river from our army's garrison, there is a village called Jinjiang Village. The other side is close to the intersection of Southern Qi and Eastern Wu. Although the river surface is slightly wider, the water flow is not fast. Southern Qi only set up about one battalion of troops here, with a total of more than 2,000 people. Tonight, our army set out, and all small and medium-sized boats arrived here. At night, the night of the morning, they transported all 10,000 cavalry, 5,000 navy, and 10,000 black cavalry to the other side.
As soon as Chu Mingtang said this, the tent was in an uproar. The general Liu Qishan couldn't help but step forward: Commander, Southern Qi has always been closely guarded along the river, and the battalions echo each other. Once something happens, they will immediately call the beacon fire. I am afraid that our army has not yet arrived, and the Southern Qi army is ready to fight.
All the generals said that it was true, and they all believed that Chu Mingtang's move was not feasible.
Chu Mingtang smiled and said: You don’t know that the captain of the Southern Qi army in this camp is my Da Zhao family. He has been in Southern Qi for many years. Three days ago, five hundred soldiers of our army had crossed the river and entered this camp in the name of the reinforcements of the Southern Qi.
This is the real reliance on Chu Mingtang's attack on the Southern Qi Dynasty.
This move was set up by Chu Mingtang five years ago
When Chu Mingtang was the commander of the southern line camp, he began to bribe and dispatch a large number of meticulous works to the Southern Qi Dynasty. Through meticulous works, he quickly figured out the defense of the river along the other side.
By chance, a merchant ship from Bei Zhao brought back two Southern Qi mates. After finding out the details, they killed the two of them and disguised themselves as thieves to slaughter the fishing village.
Chu Mingtang picked two officers from the cavalry army and went to Nanqi with the ship.
When the fishing village was destroyed, the two people went to the local government to report to the officials
Seeing that their family was destroyed, the officials thought they were pitiful, so they recommended them to the Southern Qi Shui Shi.
The two were originally officers, and they were very skilled in martial arts. They were generous and knew how to be filial. They were soon reused.
One of them was sent to the military camp on the border of Qi and Wu to serve as a lieutenant.
When Chu Mingtang learned about it, he was overjoyed and immediately ordered the person not to move rashly.
The captain drank and had fun with the soldiers in the camp all day long. Even if someone found something abnormal on the other side, he would suppress it.
After hearing what Chu Mingtang said about this, the generals in the tent admired Chu Mingtang's foresight and thoughts. The generals in the southern front line all came out to praise the Chu commander's plan before the battle and his ability to use troops.
Chu Mingtang smiled and Chu Zheng stood behind her back and looked at her father with admiration. It turned out that this father was such a powerful person, but why couldn't he see it in front of his mother?
Chu Mingtang suddenly pressed his hand in vain, and the tent suddenly became silent. Chu Mingtang said: Liu Qishan, Chu Luoshui obeys the order!
The two of them left the list at the same time and said: The last one will be in
You two lead 10,000 cavalrymen and 10,000 black cavalrymen to set off at the hour of You today. Be sure to arrive at Jinjiang Village before Xu hour, camp and rest on the spot, be careful. If there are idle people waiting to approach, kill the 5,000 naval troops are waiting there. To board the ship tomorrow night, each rider will bring dry food and horse materials for two days.
Wang Mingyuan obeyed the order!
The last one will be there!
General Wang, after you go down, you can rectify your troops, and rest during the day tomorrow, leave the shore on time at night, and before Mao, you must reach five miles of the south bank. When you hear the cannons, you will attack the Southern Qi Water Division with all your might.
Finally, I will obey the order!
Chu Mingtang asked the generals in the tent to order the military orders
After receiving the order, most of them showed joy. Chu Mingtang was surprised by this battle and planned it carefully.
If Southern Qi is completely unprepared, he will definitely suffer a big loss
The southern camp has not had any war for many years, and most generals are promoted step by step, which is relatively slow.
Both are partial generals, Chu Luoshui is only twenty-seven years old, while Liu Qishan is over forty years old
If this battle is won, most of the generals in the tent can be upgraded several levels in a row.
The tent suddenly became lively
Chu Mingtang looked at it and couldn't help but snorted. Everyone immediately stopped talking and looked straight ahead.
Chu Mingtang's eyes flew over the faces of the generals one by one, and said with a grim voice: This war requires the cooperation of the generals. This commander said that it is ahead. No matter which general under the tent fails to be in place on time or fails to fight, kill Wuhuai even if you die on the battlefield, your family will go to the border to be exiled.
All the generals have followed Chu Mingtang for many years. Knowing that what he said is true, they suddenly felt cold all over their bodies.
Chu Mingtang waved his hand: Let's go down, General Liu Qishan stayed first
After the generals went out, Chu Mingtang pondered for a while and said to Liu Qishan: Qishan, you will cooperate with the Black Cavalry Army in the Northern Frontier this time, pay more attention to the Black Cavalry Army's arrogance and difficulty in controlling it. Luoshui is the nephew of this official clan. You can discuss it with him. There must be no disagreement between the two armies.
Liu Qishan bowed and said: Please rest assured, the general will understand it.
Chu Ming closed his eyes and said: That's good, Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan are all under your tent, take them with you, and lead a battalion together, you don't have to care too much about them
Liu Qishan secretly complained in his heart: If something happens to them, can I still have the life to stay in the camp on the southern front line, but I dare not refuse to obey, so I had to take the order and go.
Chu Mingtang thought silently: Wealth and honor are in danger, Xuan'er Yuan'er, it depends on your real ability.
Liu Qishan and Chu Luoshui stood side by side, and the 20,000 Great Zhao cavalry have basically landed
According to the book written by Chu Mingtang, they did not go to the barracks on the south bank, but were in a forest by the river about five miles away.
Chu Luoshui suddenly asked: Commander Chu has never fought a war before
Liu Qishan nodded and said: It's Ah. I heard that Commander Chu and Minister of War Guo were the top scholars of civil and military in the same year as my Great Zhao. Before he came to Pingyuan County to serve as the prefect, he was the Minister of Personnel and had always been a civil servant.
Chu Luoshuidao: But his mind is so careful and his use of military intelligence. I am afraid that even Lord Guo will feel ashamed of himself. Sometimes I think they are very similar, with elegant manners and extraordinary demeanor. But the difference is that Lord Guo won the love of all the soldiers in the northern border that year, and loved soldiers like his sons, shared joys and sorrows with soldiers, and led the way when facing the enemy. Lord Chu was extremely brave... He looked at Liu Qishan and said: Unpredictable
Liu Qishan thought to himself: It is not only unfathomable, but also cruel and ruthless.
When Chu Mingtang came to serve as the commander of the Southern Front, most veterans did not take him seriously. But in less than a month, Chu Mingtang sent his two former deputy commanders to the Ministry of War for retirement. He used thunder to eliminate dissidents, demoted those who were demoted, and transferred those who were transferred. What's worse is that some people disappeared inexplicably.
In less than a year, the generals of the southern camp saw him and didn't even dare to show off their anger.
But he didn't dare to tell Chu Luoshui these things, after all, the friendship is still shallow, let alone the person in front of him is still the nephew of the commander.
The lieutenant in charge of the alert came to report, the person in charge of the reception was here
Liu Qishan asked: What is the situation in the camp
Everything is ready. Captain Chen pretended to bully us. We are newly arrived reinforcements. The people who stood on the post tonight were from our southern camp. Captain Chen drank with them until late at night and had just fallen asleep.
Liu Qishan said to Chu Luoshui: General Chu, your black cavalry rest here first, I will just take the cavalry over there.
About half an hour later, Liu Qishan sent his troops to lead the Black Cavalry. At this time, it was already dawn.
Liu Qishan was on a slope, and Chu Luoshui rode his horse to him and asked: Lord Liu, what is the situation in the camp?
Liu Qishan smiled and said: It was even smoother than expected. The Captain Chen sprinkled anesthetics into several large jars of wine. When our army rushed in, we did not encounter any resistance at all.
He was originally going to enter the camp, but when he thought of Chu Mingtang's instructions, he thought it would be better to wait for Chu Luoshui to enter together here.
An officer ran out of the camp and dismounted in front of the two of them and said, "The two generals have been cleaned up in the camp, and a total of 1,825 soldiers from the Southern Qi Dynasty were captured. Two generals were invited to the camp.
Chu Luoshui sounded familiar, but when he looked closely, it was Chu Yuan and said in surprise: Xiaoyuan, why are you here too
Chu Yuan smiled and said: Not only me, but the eldest brother is here, so Deputy General Lin asked me to ask the two generals for instructions on how to deal with these Southern Qi soldiers.
The two looked at each other, and Chu Luoshui jumped with his left eyebrows and said in a stern manner: Kill
Chu Yuanyiyi: Are they all killed? That's nearly 2,000 people. Subconsciously, he looked at Liu Qishan again
Liu Qishan said with no expression: Notify Deputy General Lin to find a reason to ask the Southern Qi soldiers to dig a big hole, shoot it with archers, and then buried it.
Chu Luoshui suddenly said again: It may be useful to remove the military uniforms of the Southern Qi soldiers before digging a hole.
Chu Yuanxiang looked at it for a long time as if he didn't know the two of them, and then turned around and returned to the camp.
Liu Qishan suddenly laughed and said: The second young master may be frightened, but we have no extra troops to guard these Southern Qi people.
Chu Luoshui said lightly: After this battle, he may understand.
The two entered the camp and sat down in the house they had packed for them, Chu Xuan led one person in and said: Two generals, this person is Chen Xiaowei.
The two stood up at the same time, Liu Qishan looked at the Captain Chen, and suddenly burst into laughter: Isn't this Chen Zishan? It turns out it's you.
The Captain Chen also smiled and saluted to the two of them: Chen Zishan has met two generals
Chu Luoshui returned a bow, but Liu Qishan walked up and punched Chen Zishan on the shoulder, and said with a smile: I thought you were... dead.
Chen Zishan was originally a subordinate of Liu Qishan, and he loved both civil and military affairs.
Liu Qishan was transferred to another position after he appointed a deputy general.
Five years ago, Chu Mingtang killed a group of people for the crime of colluding with the enemy, and Chen Zishan was also among them. When Liu Qishan learned about it, he sighed for it. Unexpectedly, he actually went to Nanqi.
I heard from Commander Chu that you came over in total. Who is the other person? Do I know each other?
Chen Zishan: That man is doing better than me in the army. He has left the navy and went to the capital of Qiguo.
Liu Qishan was shocked and his face suddenly sank: You should never say this to this general.
Chen Zishan was startled and didn't dare to say anything again
Seeing that the atmosphere in the house was a little awkward, Chu Luoshui said: Captain Chen endured humiliation in Southern Qi. He lurked for many years and won the battle. If he wins this battle, Captain Chen will be the first minister, the commander of Chu, who ordered me to arrive in Southern Qi. After you arrive in Southern Qi, you will arrange the marching route to the emergency situation. Can Captain Chen explain to me?
Liu Qishan also felt that he was talking a little harder just now, and apologized to Chen Zishan.
Chen Zishan took out a silk map from his arms and spread it on the table, saying: Two generals, please see, from here, there are about ninety miles to the Southern Qi Navy Camp, and there are two troops stationed in Southern Qi, each with nearly 2,000 officers and soldiers. Otherwise, they would have been discovered. These two military camps may ignite beacons at any time, and the message can be transmitted to the Southern Qi Camp in an instant. If they are not discovered, our army can hide in a forest ten miles away from the Southern Qi Camp, which can accommodate 20,000 cavalry and launch an attack on the Southern Qi Camp at any time.
Chu Luoshui suddenly asked: How far is the military camp closer to the Navy Camp from the camp?
Chen Zishan replied: About thirty miles
Chu Luoshui continued to ask: What is the farthest distance that the beacon can reach at night?
Liu Qishan and Chu Xuan's eyes lit up next to him
Chen Zishan thought and said: Even if the beacon fire reaches its extreme, it should not exceed forty-five miles.
Liu Qishan said: First, send troops to remove the military camp that is closer to the Navy Camp. Then, even if our army set out from here, even if another military camp is discovered, it will not be able to notify the Navy Camp in time.
Chu Luoshui shook his head and said: General Liu, when our army arrives at the forest ten miles away from the Navy camp, we must take a break. If the remaining military camp is released, there will be no response after the beacon fire, we must be suspicious. We must send someone to report to the Navy camp. Even if our army intercepts with all our strength, there will inevitably be fish that will escape. So we want to lead a part of the Black Cavalry to put on the military uniforms of the Southern Qi cavalry. At Si Shi, we will set off at 3:00 and arrive at the barracks close to the Navy camp at normal marching speed. Please ask General Liu to take the remaining troops and horses to attack these two barracks at the same time with our troops at the same time, and make sure not to leave a living mouth. Then the two units will meet in the forest ten miles away from the Navy camp.
Liu Qishan thought about it and thought it was feasible, so he would just destroy these two military camps at the same time.
Chen Zishan smiled and said: Since General Chu wants to dress up as the Southern Qi army, there is still a treasure here at the Xiaguan.
As he said that, he took out something from the case and said: This is the seal of the Southern Qi Ministry of War engraved by the Xiaguan privately. It is very vivid. Previously, five hundred people from Dazhao entered this camp, and asked the official he gave him to make a letter to the Ministry of War immediately and sealed it with fire paint. Perhaps General Chu could use it.
Chu Luoshui said happily: Then it will be a blessing for Captain Chen.
He said to Liu Qishan again: Please ask General Liu to allocate the next thousand people from the cavalry army, led by Chu Xuan and Chu Yuan. After all, we soldiers in the northern border are not as good as those of the Southern Qi people, and it will inevitably cause doubts.
Liu Qishan was stunned and was about to refuse, but then he thought that these black cavalry soldiers were extremely brave and Chu Luoshui was their cousin again, so he would naturally do his best to protect them. Perhaps it was safer than being by his side, so he agreed.
The spring in Jiangnan is filled with warm sunshine, making people drowsy
A veteran at the camp gate yawned lazily, and suddenly felt a sharp pain like a burning fire on his body. The veteran screamed and jumped up
I saw an eighteen or nineteen-year-old officer riding on a horse, holding a whip in his hand, and shouting angrily: Is this how your navy keeps his guard?
The man next to him quickly saluted the young man: It's not your sir, you are...
The young man looked arrogant and took out a letter from his arms and raised it at the two of them: At the order of Lord Jiang of the Ministry of War, General Chen of our army will take over the military camp here. After saying that, one person gave another whip: Go away
The navy officers and soldiers in the camp suddenly broke in with three or three, and were at a loss and went to the side.
The young man held the reins in his hand and shouted loudly: Where is your Captain Wu? Come out quickly and receive the order of Lord Jiang from the Ministry of War
An untidy officer ran out of the tent in a panic and replied: "The official is here."
The young man threw the letter of the army to him and said: According to the order of the Ministry of War, General Chen will take over this camp
The officer looked at the seal of the Ministry of War on the letter, which seemed to be true, but he was a little confused. Why did the Navy Camp never inform this?
In the cavalry team, Chu Luoshui pointed at the high beacon tower and whispered to Chu Xuan: Take ten people over quietly, be sure to shoot two people on the high platform.
Chu Xuan took the order and took the soldiers of the ten black cavalry and quietly covered the platform, saying: Ten people are divided into two groups, each shooting at one person, and one blow must be fatal.
Ten people dispersed, opened their bows and arrows, and shot them out. The two of them screamed and fell to the ground.
The officer was shocked and was about to shout that there was an enemy, but he felt a heat in his throat. However, Xia Mo, behind Chu Luoshui, shot through his throat with an arrow.
Chu Yuan saw the murderer for the first time in his life. He looked at the officer in front of him holding an arrow, his eyes protruding, and he screamed. His mind was in chaos. He suddenly pulled out his waist and roared, and rushed towards the soldiers of the Southern Qi Dynasty.
Chu Luoshui was startled and said to Xia Mo beside him: These two are my cousins. You can quickly bring people to follow you, and you must protect them.
Xia Mo tied the reins and said with a smile: Don't worry, brother, this matter is for me.
The black cavalry was raging in the camp like a wolf or a tiger. The Southern Qi army resisted a few times in panic and soon collapsed.
A thousand cavalry guarded the camp gate, and the black cavalry team was in groups of ten, sniping in an orderly manner, extremely relaxed
The screams in the camp gradually became sparse, and Chu Luoshui called Xia Mo: I ordered some people to search within a radius of five miles, and I must not let anyone go
Chu Yuanmuran sat on the horse, with a lot of blood splashed on his body. He didn't know how many people he had killed, but only remembered that he kept chasing those panicked Southern Qi people, constantly swinging his swords, and then he kept screaming...
Suddenly, my shoulders sank, and I heard Chu Luoshui say: Xiaoyuan, are you okay?
Chu Yuanqiang smiled: It's okay
Chu Luoshui pulled Chu Zheng over and stared at him and said, "I'm about the first time I killed someone and I'm confused. But this is on the battlefield. You either die or I die. You can't be ruthless. Otherwise, the person who dies will be you. If you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to participate in the evening.
Chu Yuan straightened his waist and said: No, Luo Ge, I'm much better. These are things that I have to experience. Luo Ge doesn't have to worry too much.
Chu Luoshui's eyes showed admiration and said: OK, when you charge at night, you and your brother try to follow me and let the people of Southern Qi see how powerful our three Chu brothers are.
Chu Yuan was so proud that he said that he suddenly became proud and said with a smile: Yes, let them know that it’s a pity that Xiao Zheng is still young, otherwise we would be the four brothers.
Chu Luoshui shook his head secretly, thinking that if that kid was by his side, he wouldn't have to worry so much.
Chu Mingtang stood on the deck, and Chu Zheng was standing beside him.
Vice Commander Wang on the front line reported that our army had been found on the Nanqi Navy Camp and was boarding the ship
Chu Mingtang's pupils shrank slightly, and he was waiting for this opportunity
Pass on, click the cannon
Hearing the cannon, the Zhao Navy began to advance, and the ship speed gradually accelerated.
In the woods outside the Southern Qi Navy Camp, Chu Luoshui and Liu Qishan respectively sent orders: Charge
Soon, the Navy Camp was vaguely visible, and Chu Luoshui said: Unlock the condom of the horse's mouth
More than 20,000 horses had been holding back for a long time, and they were clamoring in unison. Many people looked over and watched. Suddenly, one person shouted: It's a cavalry, a cavalry of Zhao State!
Close the camp gate and shoot the arrows
The black cavalry raised the round shield in a diagonal manner, not caring about it. The sparse rain of arrows was far worse than Hu Man's. The loose fence of the Southern Qi camp could not stop the tall horses under the black cavalry. They rushed into the navy camp in the blink of an eye.
Most of the people in the Southern Qi Navy Camp had just been transferred to the riverside, and all that were left were the old, weak and remnants. The black cavalry rushed back and forth like a plow, set off a few more fires, gathered again, and rushed towards the riverside.
On the way, I met a team from Southern Qi
It turned out that the navy officers and soldiers who went to the riverside camp found that the camp was lit up in the sky. The generals led the team knew something was wrong and hurriedly ordered two thousand people to return to the camp to support.
He only thought it was a small group of sneak attack troops from Bei Zhao, but he didn't expect that there were tens of thousands of people coming, and he met halfway through it.
After half an hour of fighting, there were still eight or nine thousand people in the Southern Qi navy, but they were completely powerless. Seeing that the enemy troops in front and behind were all lit their bows and arrows at them, they felt that the situation was hopeless and no longer resisted, and they all raised their hands to surrender.
After simply cleaning up the battlefield, Liu Qishan and Chu Luoshui discussed it. The Black Cavalry was not convinced and stayed on the shore to guard the prisoners of war. The Ten Thousand Cavalry was carefully selected by Chu Mingtang, and most of them were roughly used to control the ship.
With the order, Liu Qishan dismounted and boarded the boat that had not yet taken off by the Nanqi River.
Seeing a fire in the backyard, the Navy of Southern Qi suddenly became panicked, and the Northern Zhao army led by Wang Ming took the opportunity to attack.
The Navy of Southern Qi had no intention of fighting. Seeing that the situation was unstoppable, the generals had no choice but to order a breakout and sail to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
Ninety miles east of the riverside daying, Orie Village
Chen Shangzhi, another deputy commander of the Southern Front Camp, walked back and forth in the cabin. He was about 45 or 46 years old, with a purple-red face. He looked like a man who grew up from the riverside.
Chen Shangzhi knew that after the battle, Commander Chu would go to the court to go to the commander of the southern front camp, of course, Wang Mingyuan belonged to him. This time, he led the navy, so he naturally accumulated military merits for him.
Report to the deputy commander, the Southern Qi Navy was defeated and was fleeing to us
Chen Shangzhi stood on the deck and saw that the two armies had formed an encirclement against the Southern Qi Navy. He smiled and said to the people around him: It seems that the Southern Qi people are doomed this time.
A captain sighed: It's a pity that so many ships burned a fire
Chen Shangzhi scolded: What do you know? If it weren't for this fire, the Southern Qi navy went downstream and was about to burn the boats. How could our army alone stop the ships? What's the matter? This battle won. There were so many ships from the Southern Qi navy, and you would have enough to divide one by one.
As he said that, Chen Shangzhi couldn't help but laugh
Looking into the distance, Chen Shangzhi said: Let's go and ask Vice Commander Wang for a drink. After winning such a big victory, he should treat him well.
