When the Emperor of Chu learned that the Wu Dynasty had sent 300,000 troops, he was also a little angry.
"Your Majesty, calm down, maybe this is just hearsay!"
"I feel that it must be caused by those who are afraid of chaos in the world!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Above the Golden Palace, all the officials spoke one after another.
Naturally, there are also different voices.
"Your Majesty, since such rumors have appeared, I feel that I have to guard against them!"
"That's right, as the old saying goes, if nothing happens, there will definitely be some trouble!"
Emperor Chu nodded, feeling that what everyone said made sense. His eyes fell on Prime Minister Shangguan Yunlong, "Prime Minister, what do you think?"
Shangguan Yunlong said: "Your Majesty, I think it is enough to listen to half of the rumors coming from the streets, but we cannot take it easy!"
"General Geng sent a military report last night!"
When the Emperor of Chu heard that it was a military report, he immediately said: "What did General Geng say? Has he defeated the Wu Dynasty's army?"
Shangguan Yunlong hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "We are not defeated. General Geng said that he hopes that your Majesty will send 100,000 reinforcements!"
"What?" Emperor Chu looked like he had heard well, and was deeply surprised. He was still aware of Geng Chunqiu's ability, and said with a deep look: "Send me the military report!"
"yes!"
Shangguan Yunlong quickly took out the military report.
Give it to the eunuch.
Soon, Emperor Chu saw the content of the letter, which recorded the detailed confrontation and losses. Emperor Chu looked deeply and said quietly: "I didn't expect that my first general was also frustrated!"
"But an army of 70,000 people fought for so long!"
"It seems that I underestimated Wu Chaojun!"
"Immediately, Song and Liang, go to the Donggu Camp to lead one hundred thousand troops to reinforce General Geng!"
Emperor Chu gave the order very simply.
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
Song Liang stood up from the line of generals with a strong back and a strong back.
His military ability was only ranked fifth in Da Chu.
It can be seen that the powerful generals of Chu are like clouds is not an empty talk.
Song and Liang left in stride.
At this time, Shangguan Yunlong continued: "Your Majesty, the Wu Dynasty's army is so capable of fighting. I believe that the northern border must be defended. Although there is a natural moat, the Wu Dynasty also has a navy!"
"If the Wu Dynasty chooses to cross north and then unite with the East, I'm afraid our Dynasty will fall into a two-front war!"
Emperor Chu nodded, "It makes sense. I ordered the Northern Army led by Zi Ang to pay attention to the movements in the North at all times!"
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
Ying Ziang is Ying Tingguang's father.
Ying Ziang's military strength was inferior to Geng Chunqiu...these two men occupied the first and second place among the military generals of Da Chu.
Soon, Emperor Chu issued orders one by one and conveyed them to individuals as quickly as possible.
Da Chu occupies natural dangers, is rich in products, and has a huge land area. After more than fifty years of development, its military strength and economy have reached their peak.
Therefore, Emperor Chu was not afraid of war at all, on the contrary, he was looking forward to it!
After all, every emperor wants to have a big dynasty to show his achievements.
…
At the same time, the war in the Southern Dynasties was still at a stalemate.
The Chu army was unwilling to attack.
Just kept putting it off.
On the Nanjing city tower, Shi Gandang and Lei Yi looked into the distance, where Geng Chunqiu's troops were stationed.
Shi Gandang said in a deep voice: "Not long ago, your Majesty came to report that Commander Xiao has led 300,000 troops and has gone south to Nanguan. It won't take long for him to start a war with Dachu!"
Lei Yi was eager to try: "Then we also take the initiative to attack Geng Chunqiu's troops?"
Shi Gandang shook his head, "Geng Chunqiu has been without a fight for so long. I don't think things are that simple! He must be waiting for reinforcements, so after thinking about it carefully, defending the city is the main plan!"
Lei Yi heard the sound and said sadly: "If you don't move any more, the knife in your hand will soon become rusty!"
"Haha..." Shi Gandang suddenly laughed, "Don't worry, you will use the sword when you do!"
Lei Yi said half-jokingly: "Commander Xiao is here, and we guys probably don't have a chance to use our swords!"
When it comes to Xiao Zhanming, the two of them have great admiration for him.
"Not that..." Shi Gandang smiled.
"Hopefully!"
It's now December, and the weather in the Southern Dynasties is alternately hot and cold, which is a bit torturous.
Fortunately, Da Chu's army is not short of all resources. If this were not the case, the morale of the army would have collapsed long ago.
Dachu Military Camp, in the main account...
Geng Chunqiu and other generals sat one after another, with angry expressions on their faces.
This war has continued until now, and all the soldiers can't wait any longer.
"General, don't wait any longer, let's start the war!"
"yes!"
"The worst that can happen is death. We still have an army of 120,000 to 30,000 people. We will definitely break the city of Nanjing in a last-ditch battle!"
This war lasted for several months, and gradually we became tired and lost the morale we once had.
Therefore, all the generals came to request orders to launch the final siege of Nanjing City.
Geng Chunqiu looked around and saw the determination in the eyes of the generals. He sighed, "I brought you all out. Of course, I want to take you all back!"
"I have asked His Majesty for help. If he agrees to support, then we will launch a general attack!"
Speaking of which, the other generals couldn't say much and could only obey orders.
Therefore, Geng Chunqiu ordered everyone to wait for a while for news from the capital.
Just like that, another half month has passed, and the New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer.
It was on this day that the vanguard led by Song and Liang arrived.
After meeting Song and Liang, Geng Chunqiu could be said to be well aware of Emperor Chu's decision. He understood it very well and said with a smile on his face, "General Song, you are here!"
Song Liang nodded and agreed: "General Geng, long time no see!"
"Yeah, long time no see!"
Then, the two hugged each other wearing armor and took a few photos.
Geng Chunqiu continued: "How many people did you bring this time?"
Song Liang smiled and said, "Your Majesty's order, one hundred thousand people, no more, no less!"
Geng Chunqiu also laughed, "Okay, okay...this time, we will definitely defeat Nanjing City!"
Song Liang sighed softly, "I really didn't expect that you, a great general of Chu, who has always been invincible, would be stopped by Nanjing City now. It's so unexpected!"
Geng Chunqiu smiled awkwardly, "The opponent's troop formation and troop strength are both good, so I underestimated the enemy..."
"understand!"
Song Liang interrupted Geng Chunqiu and did not let him continue. Naturally, he wanted to protect the face of the first general of Chu.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Geng Chunqiu began to order his troops and generals to prepare for the next siege battle.
Seven days later, all the 100,000 troops from the Song and Liang tribes arrived at the Dachu military camp and were unified under the command of Geng Chunqiu.
Two hundred and thirty thousand people lined up on the battlefield to be reviewed by Geng Chunqiu and many other generals.
The army of Da Chu is still extremely powerful, giving people a pressure like a mountain roaring and a tsunami...
