Xu Huizu's withdrawal made Ping An isolated and helpless.

Not only that, food and grass at this time also became the biggest problem. The soldiers had been unable to eat enough for several days in a row. Before that, Zhu Di sent people to cut off the food and grass supply line of the Southern Army.

In desperation, Ping An discussed with another general in charge, He Fu, to move to Lingbi, where it is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is easy to get food and grass.

So the Southern Army decided to set off early the next morning, and quickly evacuated the narrow area of ​​the bridge south with three cannons as orders, and went to Lingbi to defend.

That night, the soldiers of the Southern Army were ready overnight, packed their luggage, and waited for the three cannons to evacuate the entire army.

At the same time, when Zhu Di saw Xu Huizu withdrawing his troops, he was worried that Sheng Yong's troops would come and he also made a combat plan, which was to rush across the bridge to attack the Southern Army early tomorrow morning. Similarly, he also ordered three cannons!

The next morning, when the soldiers of the Southern Army had not yet assembled and formed a formation, three dongdongdong cannons came from the sky.

Hearing these three cannons, the soldiers of the Southern Army thought this was a signal of retreat, because they had not formed a formation and could not retreat in an orderly manner. People were crowded and horses hit horses, and they became in chaos.

When Ping'an and He Fu were inexplicably surprised, the Yan army unexpectedly came over and killed them without any warning.

Who would have thought that these three cannons were actually a signal of Yan's attack?

As Zhu Neng said, God often does not play according to common sense.

The Southern Army was blocked in its own camp, with crowded personnel and no horses allowed to move. The Yan cavalry killed them in a burst of attacks...

In this battle, the Yan army beheaded 60,000 Southern Army, Ping'an and Chen Hui were captured, and He Fu escaped by chance.

When I heard that Ping An was captured, the Yan army was greatly motivated. I felt that there was no threat of Ping An. In the future, safety was guaranteed and some "peace" was temporarily obtained.

Ping'an, who was tied up in a large tent of Zhu Di, was pushed to Zhu Di's central army tent. Zhu Di pointed at Ping'an and laughed: "In the Battle of Feihe, the stallion did not detect it, so why did he meet me?"

Ping An Ran is not afraid: "Killing Your Highness is like a decay of his ears!"

Zhu Di did not kill such a powerful general immediately, but escorted him back to Peiping.

The Battle of Lingbi completely destroyed the main force of the Southern Army.

Liaodong. Yang Wen's 100,000 troops were about to stop him, and Tatar Arutai sent troops to harass the Ming border. Yang Wen was in a dilemma.

It turned out that Zhu Di had secretly colluded with Alutai.

Next, the Yan army advanced rapidly and fought to Yangzhou City.

As Lan Yue expected, the court was already unstable.

The guardian of Yangzhou City was Wang Bin, the supervisor. He actively organized resistance, but he was tied up by his subordinates and gave it to Zhu Di.

The fence-bearer moves when he hears the news.

Yangzhou City fell.

At this time, Zhu Yunwen was already panicked and sent a special envoy named Princess Qingcheng to ask for peace, but was rejected by Zhu Di.

Just as Zhu Di was about to cross the river to attack the capital, Sheng Yong's troops finally arrived in time. Although Ping'an failed, his pursuit finally won time for Shen Zhuixing.

The two sides fought in Puzikou, and Shen Zhuxing defeated Zhu Di again. Just as Shen Zhuxing was about to defeat Zhu Di in one go, Zhu Di's reinforcements arrived, and the second prince Zhu Gaoxu was coming.

Zhu Di was very happy. He patted Zhu Gaoxu on the back and said a very ambiguous sentence: "Work hard! The prince's health is not very good..." Such a meaningful sentence gave Zhu Gaoyi infinite imagination...

The two sides confronted each other at Urakokou in Jiangbei.

The battle became what it is now, far beyond Chen Zhuixing's expectations.

But he was not depressed by this, but actively responded. While the two sides were confronting each other, he secretly sent a wave of troops to burn all the ships along the north coast of Jiangbei.

This "failure plan" made him extremely smart. If Zhu Di could not cross the river in a short period of time, once the troops and horses from all over the country arrived and surrounded him, it would not be possible to cross the river. Zhu Di and his Yan army would not even return to Peiping.

There must be a prerequisite for all this, that is, whether he can lead his troops to withstand it at all times.

Looking at the thick smoke rising from the burning ships along the north coast of Jiangbei, Zhu Di was so angry that he cursed. Without the ships, even if Sheng Yong was defeated in a short time, he would not be able to cross the river, let alone Sheng Yong was so easy to defeat?

Chen Zhuxing chose a special terrain in Urakokou, surrounded by water on three sides, which is an easy to defend and difficult to attack. What's more, Chen Zhuxing did not forget to bring a large number of crossbows and poisonous artillery in his busy schedule.

The only flaw here is that once it is attacked by the enemy, it will be dead and there will be no way out. However, Chen Zhuxing's subordinates are willing to fight to the death with the Yan army.

Only one of them will repay you with all your kindness!

Besides, Zhu Di, it is impossible to build a ship on the spot. It will take several months to search for ships from other places. What will happen in these months makes Zhu Di feel terrible.

After all, now he is going deeper... If this continues... it is only a matter of time before the defeat... Zhu Di even regrets it a little. If he had returned to Peking like everyone else, perhaps there would be no impending destruction in front of him.

"What is that?" The generals beside Zhu Di exclaimed. Zhu Di collected his feelings from his anger and looked forward along the fingers of everyone. He saw dense ships appearing on the river behind the thick smoke, more than 200 ships, all equipped with artillery, catapults and crossbows, which can attack the Yan army on the river bank from a distance from the surface of the river.

These warships all hung the flags of the Ming army, and were the navy of the court. The head of the man was named Chen Xuan, the navy admiral after Chen Ang. At this moment, he came to support Sheng Yong and attack Zhu Di under the order of Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Di seemed to be trapped in an endless nightmare and could not wake up. With the constant urging of his subordinates, he tried hard to return to reality and ordered in a furious manner: "Retreat! Quit the river bank quickly!"

However, before he finished speaking, more than 200 warships on the river were fired, and fireballs pulled out fire lines one by one, and then weaved a dense fire net, covering the sky above the north of the shore...

When the soldiers of the Southern Army saw their reinforcements behind them, they were overjoyed. They took off their helmets, stood on a high place, and waved to their comrades on the river...

When the fire net formed in the sky, they cheered and excited... At the most difficult and needed time, their comrades came behind them. The suffering was about to end and the Yan army would perish...

The shells fell one by one, the flames suddenly rose, and the flesh and blood flew everywhere. The soldiers cried and shouted to their parents, guarding a narrow place like Puzikou, and had nowhere to hide...

Everyone was shocked, including Zhu Di and his men!

Chen Xuan and his men did not attack the Yan army. The targets of their attack were their own comrades, the soldiers of the Southern Army who were waiting at Puzikou to block Zhu Di!

Puzikou faces water in three sides, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is the best place to defend the river bank and block Zhu Di, but if you attack with your own people from behind and from the air, you cannons...

The carefully organized formation of Chen Zhuxing was instantly disintegrated, and the soldiers

I had to jump into the hot river water that had been burned by the fire...

The blood stained the hot river red.

All the 30,000 troops of Chen Zhuixing died in the battlefield.

...

As Lan Yue had previously expected, there are many loyal ministers and filial sons in this world, but more people are grass on the wall.

At the most critical moment, Chen Xuan and his subordinates betrayed those who trusted him and used the blood of 30,000 comrades to ask for credit and reward Zhu Di, becoming the first batch of heroes in the new dynasty.

Zhu Di was overjoyed. Chen Xuan's appearance not only defeated the most difficult Chen Zhaoxing, but also the most important thing was to offer the things he needed most but did not have at the moment - two hundred warships.

Zhu Di led the army freely across the river and rushed straight to the capital.

Ping'an has been captured, Sheng Yong has been defeated, and now he has crossed the natural danger of the Yangtze River. Who else in the world can stop Zhu Di's footsteps?

News of Zhu Di crossing the river reached the capital, and the court was in chaos.

Some ministers advised Zhu Yunwen to flee to Sichuan, while others advised Zhu Yunwen to flee to Zhejiang.

But Fang Xiaoru suggested that Zhu Yunwen guard the capital to the death.

"There are still 100,000 troops in the capital, and the city is extremely strong. Zhu Di only has 100,000 troops and horses in his hands, so it is impossible for him to capture the capital."

"As long as Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, Lian Ziling, Huang Guan and others who were recruiting troops outside for a period of time will lead their troops to arrive, and they will definitely be able to break the siege of the capital with the help of the inside and outside."

"What if I can't hold on?"

"Even if you can't defend the city, Your Majesty the Emperor will die for the country and the country, and die as his place!" Fang Xiaoru's voice was sonorous, showing his strong and strong heart.

The rolling river water, the corpse is everywhere, the fire is still burning, but the blood has flowed out.

Chen Zhuxing raised his head from the river and looked at the scene in front of him, wanting to cry without tears.

Bodies floated past his eyes. These were the people who trusted him and fought with him, but now they were killed by their own people, and they died with their eyes closed.

Chen Zhuxing was trying hard to search for the living, but none of them were.

These were two warships coming from the upstream, and the people on the ship seemed to be looking for something along the way.

Chen Zhuixing floated on the water. After a closer look, he swam over hard.

Chen Zhuixing boarded the "Yueyang" warship and hugged Chen Tianding tightly.

It turned out that after Chen Tianding heard that Chen Zhuxing led his troops to block Zhu Di at Puzikou, he ordered the two warships "Yueyang" and "Dongting" to carry full of food to support Chen Zhuxing. He believed that food should be the most shortage of necessities under Chen Zhuxing's men.

By the time they arrived here, the war had ended and Zhu Di's army had also crossed the river. Chen Tianding stood on the bow deck and watched around to see if he could find the traces of Chen Zhuxing.

Chen Zhuxing pulled Chen Tianding to the secret room on the boat. The two of them closed the door and talked secretly for half an hour. Finally, Chen Zhuxing stuffed a bag of things to Chen Tianding and ordered: "I will return to Beijing this time. Life and death are uncertain. Whether I can succeed is unknown. Therefore, you have a heavy responsibility. After sending me to the other side of the river, you must return to Dongting immediately. Don't have any connection with me, so as not to involve the brothers of Dongting Gang in unnecessary trouble. Remember to remember that the overall situation is the priority and do not act voluntarily!"

Chen Tianding nodded with a heavy expression.

"Yueyang" leaned against the river bank, Chen Zhuxing patted Chen Tianding's shoulder and said, "Please!" He slapped his feet on the deck and flew onto the shore. The nine true qi of Daxianggong wandered in his body, and Chen Zhuxing rushed straight to the capital like flying.
Chapter completed!
