Nine hundred and seventieth chapters suddenly like a dream
The big flag with "Chunyu" written on it was fluttering in the wind. Chunyu Cen was rushing left and right among the crowd. The number of guards guarding him was getting smaller and smaller, while Nanchen's army was advancing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
of retreat.
"Pull the general down!" Xu Chang, who was leading the rear guard up the hillside, shouted with a frown, "Clean the battlefield and suppress it with the crossbowmen!"
After all, the reinforcements from the Nanchen army have not arrived. Although Lu Guangda does not want to lose this commanding height, the Shu Han army has already advanced in front of him, and he cannot allow him to think too much. He must seize the available troops in his hands.
.
So in the end, Chun Yucen still took over this almost destroyed mountain stronghold.
"Ming Jin, withdraw your troops!" Lu Shixiong, who was still resisting stubbornly by relying on the archery tower in a corner of the village, gave the order helplessly. He had no choice now. If he didn't retreat quickly, he and his men would have to stay here.
Hearing the enemy's clinking sound, the knife in Chun Yucen's hand was suddenly stuck on the ground. If he hadn't been supported like this, he really didn't know if he would still have the strength to stand up.
"Crossbowman, keep shooting!" Xu Chang's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and then Chun Yucen felt a pair of hands supporting him.
Looking at Chun Yucen whose face was stained with blood, Xu Chang smiled bitterly: "You are rushing forward so desperately. If something happens, my uncle will not tear me apart."
Chunyucen murmured: "Compared to a frontal attack, this is not a heavy task, so we must fight well to prove the value of our existence to the others."
Xu Chang said helplessly: "Why are you doing this?"
Chunyucen looked solemn: "Three hundred years of troubled times are coming to an end before our eyes. There are not many opportunities left for warriors like us in this world to prove ourselves. Of course, we must seize it. After all, the burdens on you and me are not only
Own."
Xu Chang sighed and said nothing more.
Chunyucen looked around. This battle was indeed a tragic victory. Lu Shixiong's resistance was very tenacious. It was obvious that he had also received a death order.
"How about the front?" Chunyucen asked in a deep voice.
"We have forcibly crossed the creek, but the attack is not going well. After all, Lu Guangda is an experienced veteran. He is well prepared this time." Xu Chang said worriedly. Behind him, the craftsmen were nervously working.
Assembling the trebuchet, "Now the front line is also waiting for our support."
The importance of this hillside is that the Thunderbolt Chariot can command down from here and better attack the enemy. As the camp was taken down, the trebuchets that had long been dismantled have been transferred to the hillside.
"Chun Yucen's movements are not slow," Pei Zilie couldn't help laughing when he saw the flag flying on the hillside not far away, "pass the order and step up the attack!"
"Shrink the defense line and cover the Chinese army with the left and right wings!" At the same time, Lu Guangda also decisively ordered. Since the hillside has been lost, the enemy's trebuchet attack will definitely be more violent. Pressing forward now will be tantamount to pushing himself
The people were sent into the enemy's trebuchet strike range.
If we don't retreat now, it may be too late.
When Nan Chen's army began to retreat slowly, the Shu Han army that had formed a formation on the bank of the creek once again launched an attack. They had been waiting for this moment for too long.
"Breakthrough!" A loud roar suddenly erupted from the Shu Han army.
"Breakthrough!" Countless Shu Han soldiers charged forward desperately at the same time.
The originally tight military formation separated again, divided into left and right sides and charged towards Lu Quangda's troops, while the crossbowmen who had just crossed the river also began to fire arrows desperately to cover.
These Shu Han soldiers, who were really feeling a little uncomfortable after crossing the river just now, attacked very quickly. Especially many generals in the army noticed that Chun Yucen's general flag was already flying on one side of the hillside, which showed that the flank
Chunyucen has achieved the strategic goal.
After all, Chunyucen's subordinates had become a monk halfway. For these generals who had followed Li Xinchen for a long time, Chunyucen was certainly a latecomer, which naturally made the army feel repulsive towards him.
Now that Chun Yucen had achieved his strategic goal first, the generals led by Zheng Kaiyuan were eager to defeat Lu Guangda's troops.
According to Lu Guangda's judgment, the strategic goal of the Shu Han army should be to forcefully cross this creek, but the situation in front of him told him that Pei Zilie's goal was not there at all, but had been aimed at Lu Guangda. Obviously Lu Guang
Da's army was the real target. The Shu Han army that suddenly launched a charge obviously disrupted Lu Quanda's retreat.
"kill!"
Flags fluttered in the wind, and countless soldiers shouted and charged. The left and right wings of the Shu Han army were like two sharp blades, completely cutting through the Nanchen army!
Under the protection of his personal guards, Pei Zilie crossed the creek. Looking at the battle situation in front of him, he took a deep breath: "Send the order, the entire army attacks!"
————————————-
The twenty-second day of the fourth month in the second year of the Han Dynasty.
Pei Zilie, the general who conquered the south, defeated Lu Guangda, the governor of Yingzhou in the Southern Chen Dynasty, in Wuning. Lu Guangda's 20,000 troops were almost wiped out. His sons Lu Shixiong and Lu Shizhen were captured by the rebel army.
Under the escort of personal guards, he rushed out of the rebel army and only escaped with his own life.
At this point, from Wuning to Zhangshan, the gate of Jiangling has been opened wide.
The next day, Ren Zhong, the garrison of Zhangchuan County in Nanchen, led his troops to retreat south in order to avoid being outflanked. Chen Zhishen marched into Zhangchuan while waiting for the baggage from the rear, ready to go south to Jiangling at any time.
On April 26, King Li Xingchen of Han Dynasty arrived in Xinzhou. Nanchen's Jingzhou Navy received news on the way to help and retreated without a fight. At this point, Jiangling had become Nanchen's only city on the Jingzhou line and on the north bank of the river.
Shinshu Castle.
Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian walked through the desolate city wall steps one after another. The soldiers around them were repairing the city defenses and clearing away debris.
Xinzhou is the first city after leaving the Three Gorges, and will also become a material transfer station for the Shu Han army to attack Jiangling.
"It's like a dream," Li Xingchen put his hand on a battlement and murmured, "This is where we started our journey."
Xiao Shilian looked at the rolling river below the city: "To be honest, I never thought at that time that I would be able to return here alive one day, with tens of thousands of troops behind me."
"Nothing is impossible in this world," Li Xingchen suddenly laughed, "This is the beginning of the past and the beginning of the present. Our journey to conquer the world begins here."
Xiao Shilian nodded solemnly.
"Master Pei fought well, and the troops were approaching Jiangling. How about it? Do you feel the pressure?" Li Xingchen said with a smile.
Pei Zilie obviously doesn't intend to have any more affection with his father-in-law.
Xiao Shilian said in a deep voice: "I have also seen Wu Ning's battle report. In this battle, Lu Guangda made many mistakes in judgment." (To be continued)
