Chapter 843

This army was not formed for a long time, but its merits were amazing. At first, their predecessor was the personal guard of Chen Luoyan, with only more than a hundred people. Three years ago, Chen Luoyan began to truly enter the core of the military and political affairs of Nanchen, and planned a strategy to attack Jianghan through the Central Plains and counterattack Jianghan. From Jiankang to Shouchun, from Shouchun to Luoyang, from Luoyang to Xiangyang, then to Jingzhou, and then to Jiangxia.

Chen Luoyan's strategy helped Nanchen capture Jianghan. In this large-scale attack, Chen Luoyan expanded her personal guards little by little. From more than a hundred people to more than a thousand people, and finally to ten thousand people. The Nanchen army was fierce in Xiangyang, and the Nanchen army could not capture it for a long time. It was Chen Luoyan who personally raised the guards and raised his sword forward. In the dark night when the heavy rain was pouring, lightning and thunder, the three thousand elite guards battalions beat the guards' arrows and rains, and fought one after another, and they did not retreat. The fierce battle at that time shocked the Nanchen army.

A large amount of blood was washed into the channel by rain, and the moat in Xiangyang City turned red and could not change color for several days. The fierce battle lasted all night. Finally, before dawn, the brothers from the Guards attacked the city wall with their brothers' corpses, opened the city gate in one fell swoop, and led the Nanchen army into the city.

He went on one after another and would rather die than retreat. The strength and loyalty of the soldiers of the Shen Luoyan Guard Battalion shocked both sides, and even Chen Faxing admitted: "A brave and brave army who is not afraid of death can be comparable to Chen Kefu's breaking military camp!"

In the battle of Xiangyang, countless guard camps were killed or injured, but the guard camp did not disappear, but instead became bigger and bigger. By now, it has become a 30,000 iron-blooded army.

During the raid of the Northern Chen Nanzheng in June, the Southern Chen army was defeated again and again, and finally fled to Jiankang City. Under Jiankang City, the people of Jiangdong finally met the legendary Northern Chen Jingqi.

The city was silent and thousands of people shivered.

Everyone was shocked by the strength of the Northern Chen army, but only this iron-blooded guard army still stood tall. Many people could not describe how fierce and cruel the battle scene at that time...

This fierce battle added a touching touch to the Northern Chen Qiang Army, but the losers also had the same glory. Until half a month later, Chen Faxing led reinforcements to the Northern Chen army failed to break through the Jiankang City, which the Guards defended.

Since then, Shen Luoyan's reputation has risen to a higher level, and the Guards are also recognized as the most powerful army in Southern Chen. When they see them, thunderous cry sounded from the crowd: "Iron-blooded Guards, invincible!"

Immediately afterwards, the guards and cavalrymen were clanging, the battle flags were dancing, and the battalions of other generals under the command of Shen Luoyan were launched in turn. The teams were neatly arranged, with distinct armor and consistent steps. Under the pressure of the infantry's neat pace, the earth was sinking slightly, and the teams were as strict as moving fortresses.

Huainan Army, Nanyue Army, Zhennan Army, Jiankang Garage Army, and Dawu Imperial Guard Army.

This is a spectacular scene along the way, with invisible torrents of people and horses, like dense clouds of swords, and spear formations neatly clustered across the city gate. The soldiers' armor gushed over like rivers, and shining brightly under the rising sun.

This is a powerful army that has been tempered and forged after countless battles on the battlefield, and has been tempered by hundreds of tempers. They have proud records and confidence, even the entire continent is unparalleled.

Zhuma City Gate. He inspected the army under his command, and the falling geese were deeply satisfied.

Looking at this army, Chen Luoyan saw a new hope. Holding the sword in her hand, she was filled with infinite pride. Who said that women were not as good as men? His father could never change his thoughts of looking down on women in his life, but now, the five sons he saw were two dead and one prisoner, and the remaining two were hiding in Jiangxia like turtles and dared not move. In Jiangnan, Wu, the State of Wu, finally, had to rely on her Chen Luoyan to take over. With such a strong army in hand, she believed that she could do better than her father and those useless brothers.

According to rumors, the Northern Chen army was a man-eating monster and an invulnerable beast. When encountering the Northern Chen army armed to the teeth, many troops could not display their strength as usual. But at this moment, they witnessed their subordinates' high fighting spirit and strong military appearance with their own eyes. Immediately, all worries and worries quickly melted without a trace like ice cubes placed under the sun. She firmly believed that even if they faced the heavy cavalry of the Breaking Army camp, Chen Kefu, the army would be able to wipe out the enemy with their sabers and iron hooves as before.

The army advanced, magnificent and as fast as sparks. When they set out in the morning, they marched in one day and the vanguard had already arrived in Nanling City, Xuancheng County, at the junction of Jiujiang.

In the morning light, Jiujiang City is shrouded in a crystalline autumn frost.

A group of rapid horse hooves broke the silence of Jiujiang City in the morning. At the opening of the city gate, a team of knights rushed into the opening of the city gate in the Jiujiang City like a whirlwind. The knights' dark cloaks fluttered in the wind, and the golden flying eagle sign shone brightly in the morning light of dawn.

"Your Majesty's secret decree: I have learned that the Shen Luoyan has recruited a large army, with 100,000 cavalry, 70,000 naval troops and 180,000 infantry. Another logistics assistant civilians and 500,000 young and strong men, with a total of 850,000 military and civilians, claiming to be a million. The entire army is coming to Jiujiang and Yuzhang cities. Jiujiang is empty in defense and insufficient in troops, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties. Now, the Jiangxi Governor Hu Hai is ordered to lead all the troops and officials of Jiangxi Province to be taken by the navy and retreat to Hefei to strengthen the defense of Huainan to prevent the Shen Luoyan from taking the opportunity to attack Anwei."

Hu Hai, who was preparing for war after receiving the emperor's imperial edict, was a little confused for a moment. If it weren't for the officials of the ministry he knew, he would have thought it was Chen Luoyan's false order and wanted to deceive him and give it up. However, after repeatedly confirming that the imperial edict was true, he still couldn't believe it.

The left commander Xu Shiji looked at Hu Hai's heavy appearance and couldn't help but instruct, "Your Majesty's order is for our brothers. The entire army of Shen Luoyan was dispatched, and the army of 350,000 troops came to attack, which was obviously to rescue Jianghan. Now all the elite troops in our hands were transferred to the north, and there were only some village militia groups, and in total, there were only more than 50,000 troops. Although there were cities to support them, Jiujiang and other cities have been repeatedly fought over the years and were long broken. Instead of fighting with the enemy to the death, it would be better to avoid the edge. Anyway, the Jiujiang counties have been fighting each other over the years, and they have fought over and over again, and it doesn't matter if they were temporarily given to Shen Luoyan. What's more, Huainan is also empty now. Instead of defending two places, it is better to concentrate the troops and horses to defend in one place, which is more beneficial."

Xu Shiji's official position is under Hu Hai, but Hu Hai also knows that Xu Shiji is above him in terms of ability. It is only because Xu Shiji is a surrendered general of Wei that he temporarily ranks below him. After Xu Shiji's explanation, he certainly understood, but he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Hey, I'm not willing to accept it. He also led troops to fight. Marshal Wang Rengong and Marshal Xue Ding defeated the Turks outside the border, killed more than 100,000 enemies, and killed the Turkish Khan in a formation. What a great achievement. General Lu Shishen and Marshal Zhang Zhongjian guarded the places like me, but they had just captured the five counties in one fell swoop, captured more than 100,000 troops of Chen Faxing, and annihilated Dong Chun's 50,000 troops. What a great achievement. Not to mention the marshals, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, and Cheng Yaojin, who did not make great contributions outside the border, and heard the rumors that His Majesty was very satisfied with them and was ready to give them a big reward."

"Hey, remember when I was fighting with Your Majesty in Liaodong, I was one of the seven commanders. Qin Qiong and others were just surrendered team leaders. And who else, the four boys from the Xue family and five hunters from the Zhang family. When I was a captain in the Pojun camp with Your Majesty, the few little boys of the Zhang family were just big-headed soldiers. Now, it's better, and I'm about to be on par with me. What's this all? I finally had a battle to fight, and Your Majesty asked me to retreat to Hefei. If this continues, in a few years, even the former leader of the grooms, I will probably have to climb onto my head and pee."

Speaking of these, Hu Hai looked unhappy. He was one of the seven commanders under the emperor, but in recent years, he had nothing to do with the war. The emperor fought against the grassland Turks, and he stayed in the house Wei. The emperor fought against Hebei, and he stayed in Liaodong. The emperor fought against the Central Plains, and he stayed in Hebei. Now the emperor fought against the Turks again, and he stayed in Jiangnan again. Seeing that there was a big battle in Jiangnan, he was transferred to strengthen Hefei's defense. What's this all? Seeing others making contributions on the battlefield, making a lot of contributions and frequent official positions, he was getting back and forth, and he felt so much more and more.

Xu Shiji smiled slightly, and in his heart he had some objections to the emperor's transfer of him to Jiangxi. He thought that Huang Junhan was still inferior to him when he was in Wei State, but after he was demoted to Chen, he was even higher than him. Under Li Mi, he was also a general, but now he has become a left commander who commands the village soldiers and militia.

"Governor, from the other side, this also shows your importance and trust in Your Majesty's heart. During several wars, Your Majesty asked you to stay in the rear. What a great trust is this."

"But I feel a little uncomfortable. I want to fight with Shen Luoyan. Do you support me?" Hu Hai looked at Xu Shiji and said.

"I..."

"General, the last general supports you, let's fight a mother's battle." Su Dingfang, the right commander on the other side, shouted. Su Dingfang was originally a general of Dou Jiande, but later he was detained by Chen Kefu when he was on the mission to Chen Chao. Su Dingfang refused to surrender until Dou Jiande's army was destroyed and his adoptive father committed suicide. In the end, Su Dingfang surrendered Chen. For several years, his official position was not big or small, but now he is commander under Hu Hai's command with Xu Shiji. Su Dingfang is young and energetic. Although many edges and corners have been worn away in recent years, he is still young. Seeing other generals making countless contributions, he is also fascinated.

Seeing that the governor and the right commander wanted to fight, Xu Shiji knew that this was against the emperor's will, he was still in a difficult situation at this time. In addition, he had the idea of ​​trying to make meritorious contributions in his war, but in the end he could not withstand the persuasion of the two, and nodded in agreement with the crazy ideas of his superiors and colleagues.

"Okay, let's fight this battle, but other officials and people, etc. still have to try their best to retreat to Jiangbei. We also evacuate from each city, see if we hit him, and stop when we see it."

"Okay, just stop if you applaud." Hu Hai nodded, but in Xu Shiji's eyes, Hu Hai is not the kind of person who can stop if you see it, but when things come to this point, he can only take one step at a time. (To be continued...)!~!
