Liu, Yu, Chen, the three southwest roads of the Ming army, except for Chen Mu, the other two armies have been remitted to Shenglong City, with 80,000 Chen soldiers within a radius of 30 miles, just waiting for the emperor of the Northern Dynasty to abdicate.

Yu Dayou suffered a small defeat at the beginning of the Langshan area, blocked by the terrain, after Bai Yuanjie led the fleet into the Red River, bombarded Jincheng, Haiyang Fu, Jiangdong, cut off the retreat of the Northern Dynasty army, Yu Dayou killed the army, three battles and three victories, and became the first army in the three armies under the army under the city of Shenglong.

Liu Xian was a little slower, the march on the north road was difficult and dangerous, and it took time to gather troops and horses in Xuanguang and other martial arts, but the troops of Shenglong were all trapped by Yu Dayou, and they could not support to the north, but became the army with the smoothest march.

The two armies of Liu and Wu drove 400 miles out of Xuanguang on the 14th, and without any fighting along the way, they drove straight to the city of Thang Long.

"Where's Chen Shuai?"

Liu Dadao and his father were old and strong, and he thought that he could catch up with the Northern Dynasty soldiers under Thang Long City, but unexpectedly, Yu Dayou divided his troops into five outposts to besiege Thang Long City, and the old man sent someone to tell him that he had come just in time, and Yu Jun withdrew from Hexi to deploy defenses and returned to the east of the town.

"I thought I could see Chen Shuai, who had been friends with God for a long time, but I didn't expect him to be late."

In the Beida camp of Nanjing, where Yu Dayou's army was stationed, Liu Xian and his son Liu Wei and other generals entered the camp, and Deng Quan and other Guangxi military generals who came to greet each other saluted, encouraged Deng Quan to say two sentences, and walked side by side with Yu Dayou, saying: "This is the general envoy of Annan Qingyang Houwu Gongji, this must be Bai Shuai." ”

Let go of the troops, share the responsibilities all the way and be handsome, Bai Yuanjie is also the coach all the way, nothing more than low gold content, old marshals like Liu Xian and Yu Dayou call him handsome, he himself is embarrassed, and he doesn't even dare to call it.

There is no other reason, his road army is a sea baggage army, 1,300 boats sound very majestic, but in addition to more than 90 military ships, the people who transport the baggage are either merchants or fishermen, and those who enter the river are also fishing boats and merchant ships.

Not to mention that such a duty on land is not enough to be a commander, most of the men under his command can't even be called soldiers, how can he pretend to be a commander?

Bai Yuanjie hurriedly took a step back and arched his hand: "The younger generation is just touching the power of shipping, so he leads the way alone, and he doesn't dare to be praised by Liu Shuai." ”

"That's not true."

Yu Dayou always looked old and dazed and couldn't wake up in the Liangguang Governor's Palace, but the war was a different appearance, even if he was old and frail, he and Liu Xian not only won a hundred battles, but also were famous for their personal bravery, and their body shape was also a common appearance of battlefield generals.

The two generals have a big belly, and Bai Yuanjie's normal and strong body is sandwiched between the two old generals like a child.

Old Man Yu opened his hand to speak, patted Bai Yuanjie on the shoulder and said: "Chen Shuai's fishing boat is very powerful, Bai Shuai can dispatch the fisherman properly, and bombard his Annan army, and he is even more wise and brave!" ”

After Yu Dayou finished speaking, all the generals raised their heads and laughed, and even the soldiers who were on duty in the handsome tent lowered their heads and chuckled.

Who doesn't know that the fishing boats opened by the fishermen of Liangguang were all Xiangshan warships at the earliest, which is a beautiful misunderstanding.

When those ships were in the Ming Dynasty, they were initially positioned as the backbone of the coastal naval division, but it was only later that Chen Mu went to the north to be the general of Zhenshuo, but the Xiangshan Shipyard blindly built ships, so that there were a large number of civilian fishing and artillery boats.

It is said that it is a fishing boat, but it is a war boat.

"Okay, say you're white handsome, you are." Liu Xian was too lazy to ink, waved his hand to settle this matter, and then said to Yu Dayou: "Yu Shuai is in person, Liu is not polite, Yu Shuai knows how much military food our army still has, and how long does it take to conquer Shenglong City?" ”

"This city is tall and thick, either send a big war ship to bomb it, or use Chen Shuai's method of overturning the Guanghai Acropolis in his early years, push a few coffins into it, and lift it for him!"

Wanting to use artillery to collapse the Anbei and Northern Dynasties, the cost of gunpowder shells is more than ten times more expensive than a few coffins of gunpowder, Bai Yuanjie said with a smile: "There are many ways to break the city, Yu Shuai only waits for Liu Shuai to discuss." ”

Yu Dayou nodded and waved his hand to let everyone sit down and discuss.

Although Wu Gongji was a native of the Northern Dynasties, he led the Ming Dynasty's Annan General Envoy and the Marquis of Qingyang; The Southern Dynasty Li Taifu, Renguo Gong, and Right Minister, the Ming Dynasty awarded him the hereditary Xuanguang, and the Annan Li gave him the hereditary Datong, so the military discussed how to break through the Northern Dynasty's Jingshi Shenglong City, without a little embarrassment.

He bowed his hand to the marshals of the Ming army one by one, and said: "Everyone, the heavenly army is powerful, but after all, Tokyo is the capital of several generations, the famous city of Annam, the southern and northern dynasties, half of the people live here, the livelihood of the Li people, the heavens have the virtue of a good life, and the siege of the city can be broken, why bother to break the city again?" ”

Thang Long City is very strong, Wu Gongji has raised troops to fight for the Li clan to attack Thang Long many times, but he has been defeated under this city many times, and of course he wants to break through this city.

It's just that listening to Yu Dayou, Liu Xian, and Bai Yuanjie talk about breaking the city like playing, feeling uncomfortable is only one of them.

One by one, this one wants a warship to enter the river to collapse the city, and the other wants to use authentic gunpowder to destroy the city, all of which are extraordinary means to break the city, and it is too difficult to accept.

Liu Xian didn't care what he thought, raised his hand to stop his words, crossed his eyebrows and grimaced, knocked lightly on the tent table with his knuckles, and said: "Xuanguang Wu's 20,000 soldiers, the old man brought 30,000 from Yunnan and Sichuan, this is not counting the 20,000 stationed in Xuanguang, Yu Shuai, how many people are there?" ”

Yu Dayou raised two fingers and said, "30,000 in Langshan, 20,000 in Zhennanguan." ”

Liu Xian was afraid that Bai Yuanjie would not be able to remember the number of fishermen and merchants, so he simply said: "Bai Shuai's side is not counted, Shenglong grain and grass is 100,000 stones a month, can Bai Shuai last another two months?" ”

"Go back to the governor, let's go for a month, within three months, grain and grass will not be a problem."

Bai Yuanjie shook his head and smiled bitterly, since ancient times, grain and grass have gone first, and when it comes to grain and grass, everyone has a big head, and he raised his hand and calculated: "The military government still has 170,000, and the provincial government of Liangguang has allocated 200,000 stones, and the merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are also raising food, but that is prepared for Myanmar." ”

"Enough, within half a month, break the ascending dragon, how to break it." Liu Xian turned his head to look at Yu Dayou, who was sitting in the middle of the handsome tent, and said, "Yu Shuai has an idea." ”

There are many summer miasma in the southwest, Liu Xian is unwilling to stay here longer, and said, "When will Chen Shuai come over?" The day before yesterday, Yunnan Express rode to come, and Yang Xuanwei of Banzhou sent a message that Meng Yang was in a hurry, and the war in Annam could not be delayed. ”

Yu Dayou bowed his head lightly and said: "Bai Shuai has discussed with the old man before, there are three water gates on the east wall of Shenglong, and the water gate is opened, Bai Shuai led his barbarian battalion to seize the city pass, and the army entered from the east gate and took the outer city, and the inner palace city is not to worry." ”

"If you can't do this, you want to lift the coffin and lift the city."

"Chen Shuai can't come and join forces with us, and it will depend on our strength to break through the Dragon City."

Speaking of Chen Mu, Yu Dayou's majestic face changed to helplessness, and said: "A few days ago, Chen Shuai sent a message, saying that he led 8,000 elites under his command to surround and intercept Mo Jingdian's 100,000 troops in the Nanshan area, saying that the opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”

"I have sent people to spread the rumor that Mo Jingdian is Chen Shuai's battle for Chen Shuai, 100,000 troops are surrounded and annihilated by Chen Shuai and Pan Gongji of the Southern Dynasty, and the general trend of the Northern Dynasty has gone, and it will not take half a month for Thang Long City to be broken, and it has been in the past few days."

Liu Xian's expression was so wonderful that the old general didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth for a while, and he was stunned for a long time before he said: "An army of 100,000 is surrounded by 8,000, how kind of face can Chen Shuai say such a thing?" ”
