All buildings in the city are houses with rammed earth walls; for fire prevention purposes, thatch roofing is prohibited on buildings in the city, and to save money and food, the roofs are mostly covered with wooden boards and plastered with yellow mud. The few trees in the city have withered branches and leaves, making them look gray.

Throw a piece.

In addition to the elite state soldiers and the right army, the people in the city are mainly well-trained rural soldiers and civilians. The rest of the population has been evacuated as far as possible to the hinterland. Seeing the soldiers and civilians in the city being in good order and full of energy, there is not much big news in their eyes.

Although Zhu Hang looked worried and frightened despite the enemy's pressure, he still felt greatly relieved.

Huaishang and Ruzhou are currently the most important protrusions of half of Dayue. Their status is similar to that of Heluo before. In addition to containing the enemies in the west of Beijing and Heluo, they also play an extremely important role in shielding the flanks of the Huainan battlefield.

At this time, Xu Huai, who was the best general in Dai Viet and had twice led a lone army to attack the enemy's heartland, was sitting in command. Even if the red soldiers and horses on the east route crossed the Huai River, they dared to ignore the threat on the coveted side of the Huai River and march straight in.

Are those along the Yangtze River preparing to cross the river?

This is the same as the reason why Chi Hu invaded the south and captured Yunshuo first.

The home base of the Chihu people was to the west of the Daxianbei Mountains. Even if their main force successfully captured the Khitan's homeland to the east of the Daxianbei Mountains, the newly acquired land was not stable, and the Chihu people did not dare to abandon Yunshuo and capture Yan first.

thistle.

On the way from the school field to the Yatang, Zhu Hang also talked about the attitude of everyone in the court towards Huai Shang.

"Prime Minister Zhou, Prime Minister Gao and others originally thought that Chushan could divide its troops from Xinyang and Luoshan to march eastward to aid Shouchun. There were even many people in the court who thought that if they spent so much money to defend Huaishang, Ruzhou would already

It’s not necessary…”

"Tsk..." Xu Huai just smiled.

He did not want to destroy the good relationship of trust with Emperor Jianji, so he would not rushly send spies to the palace, or deliberately make friends with others and bribe any palace eunuch to inform Chushan.

However, with Zheng Tu and Jin Longquan moving to Jianye with the court, and Lifengtang also opening a shop in Jianye and expanding the new tea business to Jianghuai, Xu Huai was still very aware of the general trends in the court.

When Zheng Huaizhong wanted to abandon Heluo and retreat south, he was able to win so much support in Xiangyang. Not everyone was bribed by the Zheng family, or not everyone was worried that Zheng Huaizhong would not be able to support himself in Heluo, or had different aspirations.

The most fundamental reason is that there are many people who are afraid of strength and war deep down in their hearts.

At the beginning, Heluo was the protruding part of the Qinling-Huaihe defense line, and its troops were connected with Shaanxi, Hehuai, and Hedong. The Red Guards could not capture Heluo, and they would have trouble sleeping and eating if they occupied Shaanxi, Hehuai, and Hedong.

Too many ministers in the court saw that the Chihu people were bound to win Heluo, and they also saw that the Chihu people attacked Heluo from three directions regardless of casualties. The war continued for years. They were worried about investing so much.

Heluo was not lost in the end, resulting in heavy casualties. At the same time, they hoped that the Chihu people would be satisfied after gaining Heluo, thus slowing down the attack on Huai River and Qinling Mountains.

It was for this reason that they followed Zheng Huaizhong's proposal to abandon Heluo and withdraw southward.

Nowadays, the attitude of a considerable number of officials in the court toward Huaishang is exactly the same as before.

They thought that Jingxiang was surrounded by dangerous mountains and rivers and could be defended with a small number of elite soldiers and horses, so they thought of abandoning Huaishang to the north of Jingxiang and transferring the Chushan army to Huainan to defend the Huaihe River coast.

They thought that in this way, the Chihu people would not be able to defeat the Huaihe River, and the Chihu people would stop fighting and make a truce without the sharp thorn in their throats threatening the Huaihe and Heluo they occupied.

North Korea and China can even save a large amount of military expenditures.

Although this idea is so naive and ridiculous in the eyes of Xu Huai and Chu Shan, but it is not unique in the DPRK, and even repeatedly on the book of the matter.

But it was Jian Ji Emperor and Hu Kai, Zhu Xi and others who tried to suppress these sounds in the middle of the DPRK.

"Zhou Xiang, although Gao Xiang intends to from Xinyang and Luo Shan to move eastward, His Majesty still told the public, thinking that Xu Houshi held Huai Shang, the biggest containment of the enemy," Zhu Xi said, "Although it is said that

Chaozhong's money and grain are extremely nervous, and His Majesty also wants to add some money food to Chushan next year ... "

"How much is added?" Xu Huai asked directly.

Zhu Xi walked anxiously, Xu Huai, Wang Fan, Xu Wuzhen, Shi Yan and others were also accompanied by a big stride, but it was Xu Xinzhang. Han Gui accompanied Zhu Zhi, Zheng Shou, Wang Kong and others to walk behind.

They thought that Zhu Xi said these words, it might be a polite words that His Majesty asked him.

At this moment, Xu Huai bargained and asked for exports. Zhu Zhi couldn't help laughing and said, "Xu Hou and His Majesty are really polite!"

Han Gui tightened his eyebrows and saw Shi Yan, Xu Wuzhen's expression was dignified at the same time, and he thought that his guess should be wrong. Now the middle is scarce. Even if His Majesty wants to read Huai Shang, there are Zhou He, Gao Chunnian, and Gao Chunnian.

How can Gu Fan and others obstruct more money to Chu Shan?

At this moment, I saw Zhu Xi slightly froze, and then shook his head slightly and said:

"Chaozhong is extremely difficult. The last time His Majesty was discussed in the vertical arch hall, he accidentally put on the handle of the robe and opened a big mouth.

His Majesty said that it would be low to strengthen Huai Shang, and I think it should be low. It should be a million more than one million yuan more every year.

"The Chushan Army has 30,000 elite, but has to keep the Huai Shang, Ruzhou, resisting He Luo, Jingxi Yuehai Tower, Cao Shixiong two tens of thousands of enemies, where is it easy?" Xu Huai sighed slightly.

Zhu Zhi, Zheng Shou, Wang Kong and others accompanied Zhu Xi, and Wang Fan came to Luoshan, but they did not know that Zhu Xuan was the purpose of the labor army and this layer of intention.

He came and asked: "What, His Majesty wants to draw Zuo Xiao's victory from Ruzhou?"

Xu Xinzhang couldn't help shaking his head and smiled hard: "If you listen to Zhu Xilangjun to open this mouth, I will be puzzled. There is really a good thing in the world?"

"Xu Xiang went out of the town of Jingnan, but the lake Kou was fierce and stubborn, the thought of all the unique nations, did not accept the recruitment, burned and looted in the states and counties around Dongting Lake, but also colluded, and there was no noise in all places.

Smile bitterly.

Of course, it is impossible for the Central DPRK to wait until the big army of Chichen East Road crosses Huainan, and then he starts to organize aid.

In fact, after the emperor's southward relocation, under the auspices of the Privy Council and the Royal Camp Division, the Xuanwu Army led by Deng Yan, Zhang Xin and Liu Yan, etc. In addition to further expansion, the right Xiaojun strengthened to 80,000 people.

Among them, Zuo Xuanwu Army, You Xiaosheng army was directly stationed in Yangzhou, Luzhou, in Luzhou, which can reinforce Shouchun at the fastest speed, Chuzhou.

In addition, on the basis of the Jianye government soldiers, the DPRK and China also edited a 20,000 -person Jianye Water Army; the Luzhou and Yangzhou were upgraded to the government.

, Yangzhou's soldiers totaling 30,000 people.

Huai Shang, the situation facing Ruzhou this winter can be said to be very severe, but the 20,000 soldiers and horses collected by the deployment of Jingxiang North Road have not reinforced the Huai Shang, but they are stationed in Luzhou.

Spring and other cities, and at the same time, a large number of boat boats are gathered in the city and other cities.

The 20,000 Jingbei soldiers and horses, only need to be needed, will follow the river as soon as possible to reinforce Luzhou or Yangzhou.

Even though the court can assemble tens of thousands of soldiers at the fastest speed, Jian Ji Emperor and Hu Kai, Zhou He, Gao Chunnian, Gu Fan and others did not dare to make the bottom of the home that can be easily saved to the battlefield.

Go to fight.

On the one hand, the soldiers are too sharp. Even if the Da Yue soldiers have experienced blood battles over the years, the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, but there is still a large gap.

On the other hand, after moving the capital, we continued to expand large -scale troops and strengthened the defense along the river. It had to continue to increase the food and further exacerbate the burden of people in Jianghuai, Jingxiang and other places.

Now Dongting Lake is not only extinguished by Ping, but there is a trend of more and more intense, as well as the people of the people in Jiangnan, Jiangnan, and Zhejiang, and other places.

In the early days of the DPRK, I hoped that the army of the Huai King's Mansion was based on Shouchun, Chuzhou and other strong cities to defend.

The words are so serious, and it is urgent.

To change the string more, before the city and other cities such as Shouchun couldn't support it, between Luzhou and Shouzhou, they would fight with Chichen East Road Army.

Urgent | Draw more elite soldiers and horses to gather in Shouzhou to participate in the war.

However, how much is the soldiers who are thousands of miles, how much is the soldiers?

Gu Jianqian, Gao Junyang's two soldiers were far away at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains. Even if they could get out of the Qinling Gorge, they took the boat boat after taking the Qinling Gorge to Hanzhong.

At present, the most important thing that can be tuned is Zheng Huaizhong, the father and son of Zheng Cong, and the left and right Shenwu Army of Nanyang is 40,000 elite, but how could the question court be called Zheng Huaizhong.

The bargaining is repaid. Whether it is from Huai, Ruzhou has regulated a part of the elite, and then the elite is drawn from Nanyang. If you can make more soldiers of 30,000 yuan, it can greatly increase the victory of Lu Shou battle.

However, the Chushan Army is currently facing the enemy of the west of Beijing, and the pressure is relatively small and can cope with it, but after Zuo Xiao Shengjun withdrew from Ruzhou, the Chushan Army will face Yue Hailou alone, Cao Shixiong two.

Lu Dajun -double the pressure is not an adjective, but a bloody, naked reality.

There is also a key issue. Yang Lin, as the leader of Zuo Xiao, also led the solitary army into a hard battle surrounded by the enemy's enemy forces.

Don't rush to transfer Zuo Xiao's victory, Xu Huai dragged for ten days and a half months. After Xiangcheng, Xinyang's situation is slightly stable, and he will organize a soul to enter the west.

, Find the opportunity to solve the siege of Ruyang.

If Yang Qiye is ordered to go south from Liangxian, even if Xu Huai can draw thousands of elite soldiers and take over the defense of urban defense in Liangxian, Yixian and other cities, it will also be unable to solve the siege of Ruyang.

Can kill the enemy by yourself -this hope may be a bit slim.

Not to mention, Yang Qiye will ignore his father Yang Lin's safety and accept the arrangement of the court?

Xu Huai shook his head and said:

"Even if I am willing to block He Luo, the enemy of Beijing, but Yang Lin has guarded Caizhou first in recent years, Zheng Huaizhong couldn't carry it, and he led Zuo Xiao to defend the Gong County.
