Xu Mingdong and Gongsun Hong led Da Chu's army to the gates of Nanjing.
The flag of Chu is flying.
The army is strong and powerful.
It can be said that there are no more concessions to Wu Chaojun.
For Shi Gandang and Lei Yi, this was also the first time they encountered Da Chu's army.
Shi Gandang looked down from a high position and sighed: "This army of Chu is indeed as expected and well-deserved of its reputation!"
Lei Yi also nodded. In comparison, the military strength of the Chu army was much stronger than that of the Southern Dynasty and Soochow.
Xu Mingdong rode a war horse and shouted: "Shi Gandang, Lei Yi, you didn't think of it, right?"
To be honest, neither of them expected it.
Shi Gandang admitted openly, "Yes, I didn't expect it!"
When Xu Mingdong heard this, he became even more proud, "Now that I have borrowed 200,000 troops to come back, why don't you quickly open the city and surrender?"
Kaicheng?
surrender?!
This did not exist at all in the minds of Shi Gandang and Lei Yi.
Shi Gandang shook his head, "This joke is not funny at all!"
Xu Mingdong shouted coldly, "Do you think I am joking with you? Now, the first general of Chu has arrived, and there are 200,000 troops. Do you think you can stop them?"
Lei Yi snorted coldly, "It's not up to you to decide whether you can block it or not!"
"Stop talking nonsense, if you want to fight, fight!"
This was the attitude of the generals of the Wu Dynasty, tough...all with pride.
Their pride is naturally inseparable from Emperor Wu's influence.
In those years of Emperor Wu, the emperor personally conquered and took back the land of Shuangwu. How proud was he?
Xu Mingdong's eyes were dark, "It seems like you people won't shed tears without seeing the coffin!"
Without saying a word, Lei Yi grabbed a bow and shot an arrow... Fortunately, Xu Mingdong hid quickly, otherwise he might have been shot through.
Xu Mingdong was frightened and said angrily: "Asshole, you don't follow martial ethics!"
Lei Yi complained, "Silly, didn't you just bring back some wine bags and rice bags? Why are you so loud?"
When the generals of Da Chu heard this, they were all angry.
Everyone is already eager to try.
Geng Chunqiu came out and said, "Yellow-haired boy, you really dare to say such arrogant words!"
Geng Chunqiu's powerful aura forced both Shi Gandang and Lei Yi to face it.
The strength of the guy in front of me should not be underestimated.
"Do you dare to come down and fight?" Geng Chunqiu asked again.
Now, there is a large army under the city. If we open the city to fight, wouldn't it mean that we have opened the gate to the city with our own hands?
Lei Yi said: "I don't mind if you come up!"
How powerful is the young general?
This also impressed Geng Chunqiu. He did not expect that the generals of the Wu Dynasty who defeated the Southern Dynasty were so young.
Now it seems that Wu Chao will definitely be a strong enemy in the future!
Geng Chunqiu raised his head and stared closely at Shi Gandang and Lei Yi on the tower. He wanted to see through the two of them, but for some reason, he always felt that there was something wrong. There seemed to be a layer of fog in front of them.
At the moment, not all Chu troops have arrived in the Southern Dynasties, so it is not appropriate to launch a large-scale siege.
You can't use cavalry and chariot battalion soldiers to attack the city!
Geng Chunqiu said in a deep voice: "Okay, just have a face-to-face meeting and withdraw!"
Xu Mingdong was unhappy when he heard the sound, "Geng... General Geng, why?"
Geng Chunqiu looked like he was too lazy to talk too much, "Just execute the order!"
"This..." Although Xu Mingdong was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept it, because he had no right to speak.
In addition to executing orders, execute orders!
"Bastard bastard!"
Xu Mingdong cursed in his heart and roared heartbreakingly.
Soon, the Da Chu vanguard army retreated to the camp.
This kind of operation, to be honest, made both Shi Gandang and Lei Yi a little puzzled.
Withdrawal now?
"General, this..." Lei Yi was also stunned, unexpectedly.
Shi Gandang narrowed his eyes and looked solemn, "This old guy is not simple!"
Geng Chunqiu is not old either, he is in middle age.
However, if we look at the ages of Shi Gandang and Lei Yi, they are old!
Lei Yi nodded, "It's indeed a little different!"
Shi Gandang didn't say much, unfolded a map and thought about it seriously.
…
In the Dachu military camp.
Geng Chunqiu was also looking at a map.
Beside him were the lieutenants who were sent out this time, most of them sitting upright.
Only Xu Mingdong and Gongsun Hong were restless.
Is such an army afraid of the 70,000 people in the city?
After a while, Xu Mingdong couldn't bear it anymore and said: "General Geng, we have the advantage, why don't we send troops?"
Advantage?
Geng Chunqiu came directly and asked, "What advantage?"
Xu Mingdong was stunned and stopped him with one sentence.
Can't answer.
"I……"
Geng Chunqiu's face was expressionless, "Since Nanhuang can't explain why, then don't interfere in our decision-making!"
I was still polite and didn't get kicked out.
After Xu Mingdong was frustrated, he didn't dare to say anything more, with a dark face.
Geng Chunqiu mentioned again, "Nanhuang and Shi Gandang Lei Yi have fought against each other. You can tell us about their leadership characteristics and so on!"
Xu Mingdong didn't hide anything, he said it all.
For example, how Shi Gandang and others crossed the Mingguan River...
Geng Chunqiu was shocked when he heard this, "It seems that these two young generals are more capable than I thought!"
When Xu Mingdong heard the sound, he was extremely embarrassed and wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
Shame on you!
It’s so embarrassing!
With a dark face and drooped head, he has no energy at all!
Next to Geng Chunqiu, a lieutenant general in his early twenties said: "General, I believe that before the war begins, we must cut off the lifeline of the Wu Dynasty army, and this lifeline is Mingguan Bridge, and reinforcements cannot bypass this point. You
What do you think?"
The speaker was Ying Tingguang, the son of the second general of Da Chu!
The Ying family is also a family of military generals in Da Chu. His father was named a general and is now guarding Beiguan in Da Chu.
Geng Chunqiu and Ying Mu were brothers and were generals who fought on the same battlefield.
After being reminded by Ying Tingguang, Geng Chunqiu also looked at Mingguan Bridge, and his eyes lit up, "What my nephew said makes perfect sense!"
"We occupy Mingguan Bridge, and the Wu Dynasty's reinforcements will no longer think about entering the hinterland of the Southern Dynasty from the east!"
"Without the reinforcements, wouldn't Shi Gandang, Lei Yi and others be reduced to turtles in a jar?"
As soon as this sound came out, Xu Mingdong and Gongsun Hong were both shocked and a little excited.
Immediately, Geng Chunqiu said: "My dear nephew, now I order you to immediately lead 20,000 cavalry to seize the lifeline of Mingguan Bridge!"
"be quick!"
"Yes..." Ying Tingguang's eyes flashed and his voice was sonorous, "Don't worry, we will definitely complete the mission!"
Geng Chunqiu nodded and said again, "Okay... pay attention to safety!"
Ying Tingguang strode away from the military tent.
Then, Geng Chunqiu issued an order to blockade the entire city of Nanjing to form a railway...
