Chapter 860

"Your Majesty's Imperial: When the commander-in-chief Hu Hai of Jiangxi, the commander-in-chief Chen Feng of Jiangsu, the governor-in-chief Feng Ang of Guangdong, the governor-in-chief Feng Hua of Guangxi immediately stopped all attacks and immediately led his army to withdraw from quarry. The two important towns in the Yangtze River Ferry of Jingkou will be held in accordance with the city. No orders are allowed to go to war without authorization, and stand for help! The order is immediately ordered by Emperor Chen!"

The imperial edict officer dressed in a dazzling silver and white imperial guard armor dressed in a bright yellow imperial edict and read the imperial edict loudly to Hu Hai.

Hu Hai, Su Lie, and Li Chengyi, Li Chengli, Chen Feng, and several generals who had just arrived looked at each other, and they didn't quite understand what this sudden decree meant. After a long time, Hu Hai whispered: "Empress, what does Your Majesty's decree mean? We have just captured the 18 gates of the outer city of Jiankang and the 13 gates of the inner city. As long as we wait for a while, before dark, no, we will be able to take down the palace city in the middle of the lake before noon and rescue the Supreme Emperor and the royal family."

Chen Feng on the other side also hesitated: "We have the responsibility to take action first and then report it when we use troops to Jiangdong this time. But Jiankang can take a break in his fingers. Is it a bit inappropriate for His Majesty to ask us to withdraw our troops at this time? If Jiankang's city misses this opportunity, it will be difficult to capture it again. Otherwise, I will wait for a long time. As long as I take down the imperial city and rescue His Majesty the Supreme Emperor, we will withdraw back to Caishi immediately. How about Jingkou Second City?"

The officer responsible for the order was the chief of the Silver Armored Imperial Guard, and his official position was the sixth rank. Although it was incomparable to these commanding generals, he was also a close servant of the emperor and very noble. Faced with the request of several people, the Imperial Guard sighed and shook his head and said, "You are still unknown. You have fallen into Shen Luoyan's trap. Shen Luoyan's 300,000 army has now surrounded you, and is preparing to swallow you all in one go, and then counterattack Jiangbei. Your Majesty has seen the enemy's plan and has led 90,000 troops to come to the night. Your Majesty has strict orders to ask you to immediately give up Jiankang and other cities. All the troops immediately retreat to Caishi and Jingkou respectively. Be sure to guard the two major ferry fortresses and wait for Your Majesty's reinforcements to arrive. You must not ignore the orders to avoid being taken advantage of by the enemy!"

"What, Shen Luoyan's trap?" Hu Hai was a little skeptical. However, he heard that the emperor had personally led his troops from the north to the south. At this time, he did not dare to have too many doubts.

However, he was unwilling to give up Jiankang, who had just been captured at this time. Seeing that Jiankang had only one palace city left in the middle of the lake, he would have lost all his might when retreating at this time?

After several rounds of his mind, Hu Hai hesitated: "Empress, I have learned the decree of Your Majesty. I am willing to obey Your Majesty's order immediately, but Feng Huan and Feng Ang are now leading their troops in Yuhang area to find Shen Luoyan's footprints. If it is as His Majesty expected, then the father and daughter of Feng are very dangerous at this time. At this time, we cannot leave the father and daughter of Feng. Therefore, I think that Li Chengyi and Li Chengli can immediately lead 20,000 troops to Caishi City to strengthen the defense of Caishi. General Chen Feng led 10,000 subordinates to Jingkou to take charge, and this general and General Su Lie led 10,000 troops to stay here temporarily. Waiting for us to send us to inform the father and daughter of Feng to lead the troops back and wait for the response. Rest assured, as soon as the two Feng governors are received, I will immediately lead the troops back to Caishi and Jingkou respectively. What do you think?"

The imperial guard officer who was delivering the order could not help but frown. His mission to this trip was to pass the order and he had no right to decide the plans of these generals. Although the emperor meant to let the entire army retreat to the two major ferry fortresses immediately, Hu Hai said that the two governors Feng had led their troops south. If they were left behind them, he would not be responsible. After all, everyone knew that the governor Feng was not just a governor, but also a lover of the emperor. There were rumors in the court that this governor Feng might attack after this war.

After thinking about it, the Imperial Guards could not come up with any perfect solution. Finally, they had to say, "Since this is the case, I will report everything to Your Majesty."

After saying that, the Imperial Guard officer did not stop. He immediately followed a group of soldiers and drove to Jingkou City to convey his orders first.

"Chengyi, Chengli, Caishi City has only three soldiers and horses. This time, the quarry will be left to your brothers. With you, 20,000 soldiers, can you hold on for one or two days? As long as you hold on for one or two days and wait for Governor Feng to receive him, I will immediately lead 10,000 soldiers and horses back to help quarry."

"Don't worry, the city is there, and we will fulfill our mission!" The two young generals of the Li family responded immediately. Although the emperor had told everyone that Shen Luoyan was playing in the dark and was ready to eat all their men in one fell swoop. However, the two young and energetic handsome young generals were not afraid. More than 20,000 people stood firm for a garrison and had to hold on for one or two days, they were still confident.

Chen Feng, who was there, smiled and patted Hu Hai on the shoulder, and said softly: "Old Hu, I'll leave it to you. As soon as Governor Feng comes back, you must act immediately by the order. Although Jiankang is good, you can't act without permission again and again." Chen Feng had already guessed in his heart that Hu Hai made such a decision, and he must have a plan to give up Jiankang. However, he and Hu Hai were at the same level, and now Hu Hai said on the surface that he was waiting for friendly troops, so he couldn't say too much.

At present, the 40,000 soldiers and horses under Jiankang City were divided into three divisions. Li Chengyi's brothers led 20,000 troops to Caishi City immediately. Chen Feng led 10,000 troops back to Jingkou, and Hu Hai took 10,000 people to stay in Jiankang for the time being. In this way, Caishi and Jingkou will have 20,000 troops.

The autumn wind was blowing, and the two military flags were gone for a long time. Hu Hai looked at the tall Jiankang City, tightened his fists and shouted: "Su Lie, I will give you five thousand elite soldiers, I promise you half a day to take down the palace city in the middle of the lake! Remember, there is only half a day!"

Su Lie laughed: "Don't worry, Governor, half a day is enough!"

"Okay, then you can go and attack the palace city. The governor personally takes charge of the outer city and the inner city's thirty-one gates!"

Su Lie smiled and stopped talking for a while. Finally, he couldn't help saying, "Governor, after capturing the palace city, will we really abandon Jiankang City like this? It's not easy to capture Jiankang City. If it weren't for the empty city this time, I'm afraid that a hundred thousand troops would not have been able to take it down. Is it a pity to finally capture it this time, just give up like this? This is the largest city in the world. There are three levels of the city walls and forty-nine city gates. It's a pity to lose it like this."

"Let's take a step by step." Hu Hai was extremely reluctant to leave. He probably would have made up his merits and deeds to capture Jiankang City. If he could defend Jiankang City, he would have made great contributions. However, now he only has 10,000 troops left. Even if he captured the Palace City in the middle of the Lake, he would not be sure if he wanted to defend Jiankang City.

The autumn wind blows the leaves, and the fields in Jiangdong are deserted in the early winter. The Lin'an County, Yuhang County, has just experienced a plunder. This extremely rich county town in Jiangdong is now filled with black smoke and the city gate is open.

The wide streets were filled with corpses, shop signs and guises across the ground, and even a lot of cloth tables and chairs were scattered on the street. There were no more pedestrian vendors on the street, and only teams of Baiyue wolf soldiers grinning and excitedly plundering the spoils.

After Feng Hua and his daughter wiped out the troops who were reinforced by Jingkou in Juli Mountain, they turned around and went south to search for traces of the fallen geese soldiers. However, half of the Wu army did not find them. On the way, the prosperous towns in Jiangdong were greatly cheaper to these plundering wolf soldiers. Along the way, they passed by one town and robbed a city. It was like locusts crossing the border, robbing whatever they saw.

Even if Feng Hua couldn't stand it and wanted to take care of it, but with Feng Ang's dissuasion and acquiescence, he could only let it go. The wolf soldiers were the private soldiers of the Baiyue tribe, and this time, Feng Hua had to work hard to persuade them to send troops. If he wanted to persuade them to give up the tradition of looting, it would be unlikely. What's more, the robbery was the people of the towns in Jiangdong, so Feng Hua finally let it go, and just put forward the requirement not to murder and rape them at will. As for the others, he turned a blind eye.

"Father, we have been searching for so many days but haven't found Wu Jun. This is very strange. I think we should return to Jiankang immediately. Now we are getting further and further away from Jiankang, and I always feel bad." Feng Huan looked at his father and said.

Feng Ann was holding a picture of Wang Youjun presented by his subordinates and was playing with it seriously. He heard his daughter's words: "Well, what he said makes sense. This time he sent troops to Jiangdong, the leaders and soldiers of various tribes made a fortune. My father was unwilling to do so at the beginning, but it seemed that what I heard from you was right. It has been several days since the calculations were made, and the brothers below have also robbed a lot of things. If you go back now, it will be difficult to marches. It's good to go back now, just store the things in Jiankang and then search for Piling again. If you can get a few more decorative characters from Wang Youjun, that would be great."

Seeing his father's thoughts of robbery and plundering, Feng Huan secretly despised his father. After all, he had been one of the twelve generals of the Sui Dynasty. Such a person was just yellow and white. Fortunately, he wanted to fight for the world by Lingnan, which was far inferior to Chen Kefu.

The father and daughter each had their own thoughts and were silent. Suddenly, bursts of horns came from around Lin'an City.

The sound of horns was connected and came from all directions, endlessly. For a moment, it seemed that they and the entire Lin'an City were in this sound of horns.

The silent father and daughter of Feng Huan changed color almost at the same time. Feng Ang was once one of the generals of the 12 Sui Guards and had been through a long battle. Although Feng Huan was a woman, he was also very familiar with military affairs. At this time, they had already understood many things when they heard the horn.

Feng Ann reacted the fastest. He quickly rolled up the Wang Youjun script in his hand and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack! Gather troops and go to the city to meet the enemy!"

"Enemy attack! Woo————”

The short horns of the cow in the city rang one after another, and the local soldiers who were already plundering were all stunned. The next moment, all the wolf soldiers had already left their belongings and rushed towards the four cities of Lin'an City like cheetahs!

The autumn wind blew, and at some point around Lin'an City, countless military and horse flags suddenly appeared. The autumn wind blew, the battle flags were rolling, the armor was scattered, the swords and weapons were shining, and a huge fiery red armored battle robe appeared!
