The beacon fire is transmitted, and the beacon smoke is used as the signal during the day, and the beacon fire is used as the signal at night!

The night sky near Caishidu, one of the two major ferries that Nandu stepped into Jiangdong, was completely alarmed by the beacon fire warning signals that rose up and passed all the way. "General, five piles of beacon fires have risen in Chushan! Enemy raid, at least 50,000 horses! The captain officer on duty in the quarry city rushed to the camp of Xu Shiji, the quarrying defender, and reported urgently.

"What?" A hurried answer sounded in the room, the sound of strong iron armor came, and the next moment, Xu Shiji, who was dressed in armor, had already carried a long sword out of the room.

"General, five beacon fires have risen in Chushan, this is at least 50,000 enemy troops coming!" The lieutenant officer was sweating profusely, and there were only 3,000 defenders in quarrying, and 1,000 people were stationed in the three battalions of Tianmen Mountain, Dangtu, and Chushan. At present, the smoke has risen from the Chushan Mountain, which is closest to the quarrying city, and the situation is already very critical. As for the 1,000 centaurs outside, his heart had no hope for their lives.

"Beat the drums, blow the horns, give orders to the army, and go to the city for defense! In addition, he immediately sent a fast horse to Jiankang City to send a letter, saying that more than 50,000 soldiers and horses were coming to attack the quarry, and asked the governor to send troops to reinforce it. Xu Shiji's face was solemn. With 2,000 against 50,000, no matter how bold he is, he can't help but feel a chill in his heart at this time.

I trotted all the way to the city tower and just climbed the tower, but I saw a group of cavalry rushing towards the city. It seems that it is not the brothers who withdrew from the direction of Chushan, nor is it like the Wu army that attacked by surprise.

"Open the city gate quickly, Your Majesty hastened the Holy Message!" The knight of the castle stopped his horse, held up a golden waist card and shouted.

"Your Majesty's oracle. After ordering the troops and horses of Jiangdong to receive the order, they immediately retreated to the two major ferry towns of Quarry and Jingkou. Hold on and wait for reinforcements, and the whole army will suspend all attacks! ”

Xu Shiji got up and took the holy edict written by the emperor himself, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. The 50,000 Wu troops attacked here, and then the emperor's oracle arrived, and the powerful relationship between them can already be seen. The emperor was still in Taiyuan a few days ago, and suddenly issued this decree at this time, which shows that the war in Jiangdong has been known to the emperor, and there may even be very important things in it.

"Commander Chen, I don't know what Your Majesty's will means? Could it be that Your Majesty already knows about the war situation in Jiangdong? Xu Shiji looked at the emperor who came to deliver the decree with some caution, and asked. Although the rank of this silver-armored imperial guard commander is not high, he is a real servant of the Son of Heaven. The battle situation in Koto this time. Originally, he Xu Shiji instigated Hu Hai to initiate it, and the matter was completely without the emperor's approval. Now that the emperor suddenly intervened in this, he, a courtier who was originally a general, of course couldn't help but feel apprehensive.

Although Chen Kedi did not know Xu Shiji, he had also heard of Xu Shiji's prestige when he was in the Central Plains Wei State. There's no pride at the moment. Instead, he said the emperor's speculation about the Jiangdong war situation very seriously. When Xu Shiji heard that Shen Luoyan actually came to catch cicadas, and the yellow finch was behind, ready to plan and kill them all, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

In advance, they were all in the chaos of Jiangdong, and they were a bit of a fan of the authorities, and they were fascinated by the exploits in front of them. But at this time, listening to Chen Kedi's words, after knowing Shen Luoyan's plan, and then looking at the things in front of him, everything will inevitably disappear. It's clear. At this moment, he only felt that his feet were a little weak, and the warning signal of the attack of 50,000 enemy troops in Chushan had made Xu Shiji have to believe that although the emperor was thousands of miles away, his speculation was eight = nine out of ten was correct.

"Shen Luoyan's poisonous plan, she actually wants to eat all the 70,000 Dachen I crossed the river in one go, and she is not afraid of breaking her big teeth." Xu Shiji scolded hatefully, although he said so, he knew in his heart that if it wasn't for the emperor's holy message. He was only afraid that he had really been made dumplings and didn't know yet. …,

At the moment, with a black face, he sent messengers to deliver messages to Jiankang Hu Hai, Chen Feng, Feng Wan and other generals, and on the other hand, he opened the city gate to receive a thousand soldiers and horses who were desperately withdrawn from the direction of Chushan. The men and horses of the three battalions outside the city all saw the opportunity quickly, giving full play to the professionalism of the elite Chen army, before the Wu army surrounded them. Unexpectedly, one of them quickly retreated to the front of the pass.

As soon as a thousand soldiers and horses withdrew into the city, countless forward cavalry of the Wu army had already galloped in the moonlight. It was only one step away from surrounding the soldiers and horses of the three battalions outside the city. But in the end, he could only watch the south gate of the quarry city slowly close and the drawbridge slowly rise. Blocked from the face of the walls and the wide moat.

Although the first Wu army light cavalry failed to rush into the pass in one fell swoop, their movements had already been pre-planned. Seeing that the city gate was closed, the light cavalry of the Zhennan Army, which numbered about 3,000, did not stop, but quickly divided to the left and right, and the soldiers were divided into two roads, like two long snakes, and began to outflank the entire quarry city in the east and west.

A moment later, the quarry city was already surrounded by three thousand light cavalry, and at this time, the infantry of the Zhennan Army behind had also arrived. These soldiers, who were trained by Shan Xiongxin and were mostly formed based on the elite of the Huainan Army, were not much noisy, and they all blocked the four gates step by step and deployed troops under the city.

"Woooooooooooo ————”

A long horn sounded, and in the night in front of the south gate of the quarry, suddenly a fire dragon flew in, and soon reached two hundred steps in front of the city gate before stopping. Among the countless soldiers in red armor and robes, the Chinese army of the Zhennan Army with a single word embroidered in red finally appeared.

&n

bsp; On the tower of the South City Gate, Xu Shiji, who was preparing to meet the enemy, couldn't help but change his face slightly when he saw the single-word Daxu.

"Second Brother Shan!"

Xu Shiji exclaimed, unspeakable surprise in his heart. When they parted ways in Henan, he voted for Bei Chen, but his good brother Shan Xiongxin followed his niece to vote for Nan Chen. More than three years have passed, and Xu Shiji was guarding Jiujiang before, but Shan Xiongxin has been training together in Jian'an Lingnan. The two brothers never had the opportunity to meet, and they never thought that three years later, when they met again, they would be on this battlefield.

Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiji were both founders of Wagangzhai back then, and they were the right-hand men of the big dragon leader Zhai Rang. Shan Xiongxin has courage and is a brave general in the army. Xu Shiji is better at planning and is a wise general. In the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, Shan Xiongxin was already the marshal of the Southern Army of Wu Guozhen, leading an army of 50,000 to attack. Xu Shiji was the provincial commander of Chen State, commanding the three thousand defenders to quarry.

Looking at the sea-like armor under the city, Xu Shiji's face couldn't help but turn pale. He knows Shan Xiongxin's bravery best, although his self-confidence is not weaker than Shan Xiongxin, but the difference in strength between the two is nearly 20 times, which is really a huge difference.

The three thousand Chen soldiers in the city regard death as home, and there is not much fear when they raise their swords, these most professional Chen Mansion soldiers are elite, and they are naturally very clear about the fate of the soldiers. Soldiers are not to be feared when they die, not to mention that they believe that their families are still taken care of by the emperor and the court.

There was also silence under the Zhennan Army, and Shan Xiongxin had already known that the guard of the quarrying would be his good brother Xu Shiji, but he did not ask for a change of target. When the two armies fight, each for its own master, this is the fate of the general. What's more, he believes that only after he breaks through the quarry, may have a chance to save his brother's life.

"Drive!"

The autumn wind blew the red tassels on Shan Xiongxin's helmet and rolled up the long cloak behind him. He shook the reins, pressed his long sword in his hand, and rode slowly to the front of the city.

"Mao Gong, Shan Tong Shan Xiongxin is here. Can you show up? Shan Xiongxin drank.

Xu Shiji leaned out and appeared in front of the stone stacks on the city gate, clenched his fists with both hands, and said loudly: "Duke Mao has seen the second brother here. Second brother, if you're here to persuade me to surrender, then there's no need. Although you and I were brothers in life and death, today's brother cannot confuse brotherhood with the righteousness of kings and ministers. The elder brother has a strong army of 50,000, and although the younger brother only has 3,000, he is not afraid. Today, you and my brother just split a superior and a showdown! ”…,

"Mao Gong, those who know the times are handsome, why are they so fearless and sacrificed? As long as you are willing to surrender, my brother will ensure that you will be a marshal like your brother in Wu State, and you will be crowned the prince of the country, and you can unify the army by yourself, how about it? ”

"Hahaha" Xu Shiji made a loud wind, and it was heard in the cold night sky for a long time. "Second brother, anyone can see that only His Majesty is the true son of my family now. In today's Kyushu, only His Majesty the Emperor can dominate the world. What's more, the power of our emperor and the sage of my emperor are the saints of ancient times. Why don't the second brother abandon the small country of Soochow that is already stormy and poor enough to rely on a weak woman to govern the country, why not return to our emperor and create a thousand years of achievements together, so that he will leave a name in history and be in the annals of history! My brother submits to my Da Chen, although my brother doesn't dare to protect his brother's position as the prince of the country and the position of marshal, but even if he is a phoenix, how can he be better than a chicken head? ”

In front of tens of thousands of troops, the two former brothers came and went, but their words had already indicated their respective positions.

Chen Kedi has been standing behind Xu Shiji watching all this, without saying a word. The young commander, who was young but was already very valued by the emperor, had been observing Xu Shiji's reaction. His hand kept pressing the long sword on his waist, if Xu Shiji dared to show half a point of hesitation and surrender just now, he would immediately take out the sword for the emperor and cut down this general. Fortunately, Xu Shiji did not do that.

Shan Xiongxin under the city had already given up persuasion and rode his horse back to his main position. Chen Ke smiled at Xu Shiji: "Commander Xu is so bold and loyal. Today's general's loyalty to His Majesty will be revealed to His Majesty in the coming day. ”

"An army of 50,000 is coming, but I'm afraid there will be no day!" Xu Shiji smiled slightly bitterly.

The young general Chen Kedi laughed and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has personally led 90,000 troops to come together, and now he is about to cross the river to help." Brothers, don't worry, with Your Majesty's personal assistance, there are only 50,000 Wu army miscellaneous fish, don't take it seriously! ”

"Really?" Xu Shiji's eyes lit up and he hurriedly asked.

"It's true!" The young commander's eyes were full of anticipation for the big battle at this time. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
