Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors

Chu Ye brought the map and hung it on the wall.

This reception room immediately became a combat command room.

Several veterans gathered around, looking at the map and analyzing the defenses on the southern front with Marquis Liyang.

Marquis Liyang said: "Jingzhou, Ezhou, and Shuzhou all border on Southern Chu.

After the fall of the previous dynasty, the Ji family regarded themselves as descendants of the Chu State and established the Southern Chu regime south of the river.

Emperor Taizu of our dynasty also fought against the Southern Chu regime for decades.

It was not until the reign of Emperor Taizong that Dali gradually expanded southward, occupying parts of Shuzhou, Ezhou, Jingzhou and Lingnan.

I predict that the first place Nanchu will attack is Jingzhou.

Because the southern border of Jingzhou is the two counties of Cangwu and Dongting in Southern Chu.

Southern Chu has accumulated heavy troops here all year round.

As a result, the key passes from Fenghuang Pass to Xiaoting and then to Huarong Road had to be guarded against. We must also prevent the Southern Chu people from going down the river and taking Ezhou directly.

With our current strength on the southern front, we cannot stop them at all. What I am most worried about is that Nanchu will march in and seize Jingzhou and Ezhou one after another before we can react.

Even if we recover, it will not be easy to get these places back.

The only ready-made troops I can deploy now are the remaining 50,000 people from the Xishan Camp. It is impractical to use these 50,000 people to garrison so many places.

I will send all of these 50,000 people to Jingzhou.

My idea is that once Nanchu goes to war with Dali, I will use these 50,000 people to attack instead of defend, starting from one point and going deep into Nanchu territory.

No matter where Nanchu attacks us, I will attack Nanchu's Changsha County.

Uncles, do you think this method is feasible? "

Wu Ningbo first expressed his approval: "This method is good. Once Nanchu knows our intention to attack Changsha County, the Nanchu royal family and those aristocratic groups will be unable to sit still.

No matter where Jing Zhu wants to attack, they will force Jing Zhu to defend.

But to attack Changsha County, 50,000 people are still too few. "

Marquis Liyang said: "It is impossible for 50,000 people to capture Changsha County. This is just a plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao. We will fight wherever we can. As long as we can force Jingzhu to deploy his troops in a proper way, we will enter a confrontation with us first." We have a chance.”

Xue Gui reminded: "The 50,000 Chu army has penetrated deep into the territory of Southern Chu. This is a good method, but a force must be arranged to meet them.

Otherwise, if the lone army goes deep and is cut off by the Nanchu people, the fifty thousand soldiers will never return. "

Marquis Liyang nodded and said, "Yes, but now I can't mobilize troops from Beijing, and there are no troops in the south, so I can only recruit local troops.

All the local armies from areas where there is no war in the country will gather in the southern border, and they should be able to gather 50,000 people.

But it's hard to say what the combat strength of 50,000 people is. "

Xue Guidao said: "My eldest nephew once led Xiangnan Road, and now he is the governor of Jiangnan Road. It is suitable for him to lead these local armies.

Even if it is a ragtag group, with my eldest nephew's ability, he should be able to bring out some fighting power.

It's just that the local army lacks weapons and equipment, which requires additional rationing. "

Liyang Marquis originally wanted to use Xue Changsheng, but he was also worried that Xue Changsheng had already served as governor of two places, so he sent him to fight on the southern front with stragglers. Xue Changsheng knew that he would resist.

Hearing Xue Gui take the initiative to mention it, he was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "That's what I meant, and I feel relieved when Brother Chang Sheng leads the army.

In this way, I can safely lead my troops deep into enemy territory. "

Everyone was shocked, "What? Lord Marquis, you want to personally lead troops deep into Nanchu? This is not possible!"

These are all veteran generals. Everyone knows how dangerous it is to fight deep into enemy territory, and the entire army may be wiped out.

Marquis Liyang sighed: "If I don't go, who will go? For more than ten years, Your Majesty has suppressed the promotion of the generals of the Chu family army. Except for a few children from my family, all the children from your family have been sent to other places. It is difficult to Get training from commanding troops.

The children of the Chu family are all in the northwest. They have to deal with Ashina Trabo's army of 400,000.

Now I am the only one who can lead the troops deep behind enemy lines. "

Feng Hu used his remaining left hand to grab Marquis Liyang and shouted: "Eldest nephew, there is me too! None of you are as familiar with fighting in the Southland as I am. The terrain of the Southland is complex, with many mountains and lakes, so it is not suitable for Large-scale cavalry operations are more suitable for infantry and jumping soldiers. I, Feng Hu, am a jumping soldier.

There are dozens of retainers in my Feng family, all of whom have been trained as dancing soldiers since they were young.

No one is more suitable than me to lead the army to attack Nanchu. "

Feng Hu is also fifty years old this year.

For ordinary people, fifty years old may not be too old, but for soldiers who fight all year round and are covered with old injuries, fifty years old is really old.

Two veteran generals, Chen Jiang and Ma Sui, also took the initiative to ask for a fight.

Chen Jiang said: "Master Hou, you need to stay in Beijing to take charge of the overall situation and fight on the three fronts. After you go deep into Southern Chu, who will be in charge. Master Hou must not risk his own life, so why not let me go. Among these people, I am the only one who will take command." I am best at water warfare. I was the one who led the pioneer troops when we crossed east to Dongyi."

Marquis Liyang shook his head: "Uncle Chen, before I have time to say, it is precisely because you are good at naval warfare that I want to send you to Linhai City.

That boy Zheng Chuang built a shipbuilding workshop in Linhai. This year, he also built several warships. He needs you to guide him in naval battles. "

When Chen Jiang heard about Li Yanghou's arrangement, he was surprised: "Really? Old man Zheng, your grandson is so awesome. He also knew how to build a shipyard in Linhai in advance."

Zheng Batian showed off proudly: "It's so powerful, but the construction of the shipyard was suggested by my eldest granddaughter.

The last time my eldest granddaughter followed me on the eastern expedition, I forced myself into Li Bochang's hands and took over the garrison at Yongping Pass and Linhai Pass. Otherwise, if the Dongyi came back this time, Li Bochang would have been blinded by that kid's incompetence. "

When everyone mentioned Chu Tianjiao, they all praised him.

"The eldest lady has been punching the Wang family's son and kicking the Lu family's son since she was a child. She is very brave and is very worthy of her ancestor!"

"I heard that the eldest lady is now guarding Ganzhou. I wonder if my children can help?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Lord Marquis, my children are also clamoring to go to the battlefield. Can you write to the eldest lady and ask my children to join her?"

When the mention of Chu Tianjiao, who has been in the limelight recently, these veterans became excited and expressed their desire to send their juniors to Chu Tianjiao's command.

This is the case with the Wuxun Group. Every generation will produce a leader.

Other families saw that following this leader would lead to a bright future, and they would send their children to serve under that person.

In this way, from generation to generation, everyone can help each other and work together to resist the suppression from the emperor and civil servants.

Marquis Liyang was naturally willing to see his daughter recognized by the Wuxun Group, and said that the families could send their children to the northwest.

The theme that ran away came back again.

Jiangning Bo Feng Hu invited everyone outside the house, took the sword from his entourage, and performed a set of sword skills under the moon in front of Marquis Liyang and several other generals.

"Old Zheng, come here and fight with me!"

Wu Ningbo was called onto the court, and the two veterans started fighting.

In a battle, it's hard to tell the winner.

After Feng Hu put away his sword, he said to Marquis Li Yang: "Eldest nephew, I know you don't believe that I can go into battle and kill enemies with one hand. Now you can see that I am no worse than your father-in-law.

He can sit at Quyang Pass, why can't I lead troops to invade Nanchu? "

Marquis Liyang persuaded in a difficult manner: "Uncle Feng, there is a difference between sitting at a pass and going deep behind enemy lines. Marching in a hurry along the way, my nephew is really worried that your body will not be able to bear it."

Feng Hu said stubbornly: "I can bear it! You, Uncle Feng, and I can still control three girls at night and make five bowls of rice at one meal. What can't we bear?"

If you are really worried, I will take Ah Bao with me.

If I die, let A Bao take over and my father and son will lead the army together. Is that okay? "

Several other generals also helped Feng Hu with his arguments.

After a heated debate, Marquis Liyang finally agreed to let Jiang Ning Bo Feng Hu command the 50,000 Chu family troops from the Xishan Camp to go to Southern Chu.

On the next day, Jiangning Bo Feng Hu was appointed as the general of the Southern Expedition and went to the Xishan Camp to order troops for the expedition.

General Feng asked his retainers to carry the coffin with him to express his determination to risk his life in this battle to relieve the danger in the southern border.

Marquis Liyang, the prince and several other generals came to see him off outside the city.

Marquis Liyang and several veteran generals all had wet eyes. They knew how difficult this battle was. With Old General Feng's body, the hope of returning safely was very slim.
