Chen Wenruo was surprised to hear that the reinforcements were coming. In his imagination, the fastest time for his reinforcements was half a month later.
This also requires them to keep on their way day and night and report to Jinan. After receiving the news, Jinan did not stop for a minute and immediately dispatched their rapid reaction force to the south at night, which can achieve the effect.
Chen Wenruo is still thinking about one thing, that is, if their main force is dispatched, artillery and various equipment and baggage can't be transported by land at all. They can only be transported by sea. Their Liu family army has strong maritime strength and can quickly transport weapons and equipment, but there are disadvantages of sea, This is why they need a lot of time to load and unload goods. If the army comes by sea, it may take more than 20 days.
But now it's only three days, and their army has arrived in Taizhou, which can only show that Liu Jun has long planned, and they have long planned to sneak attack Yangzhou, which can have such an effect.
Chen Wenruo was greatly inspired: "Liu Shuaiguo has the ability to achieve great things. Heaven and earth work together!"
He was still worried, but when he saw that the urgent military order had Liu Bu's customs seal and secret charge on it, he didn't dare to neglect it. He immediately led his personal team out of Yangzhou and went straight to Taizhou.
Of course, he sent several confidants to guard the main city gates, and directly closed the city gates. They were not allowed to enter or leave. As soon as Liu Bu's army arrived, they had decided the general situation.
When Chen Wenruo's horse team arrived in Taizhou, they saw the lights on the wharf and the forest of knives and halberds. They already had a large number of fleets berthing. These fleets were unloading all kinds of goods continuously. There were also teams of soldiers coming down from the ship. They were lined up in squares and formations on the wharf and streets, ready to start.
As soon as Chen Wenruo saw the huge flag with a big Liu character flying in the wind, he was relieved. As expected, Liu Bu came close. Only Liu Bu dared to hang such a big handsome flag.
After Chen Wenruo and his party arrived here, they immediately reported to the duty officer, who immediately took him to Liu Bu's place.
Liu Buhe put his Chinese Army's big account, that is, the so-called headquarters, on the watchtower at the wharf. There are a large number of warships berthing here. Chen Wenruo is proud to see this huge warship constantly landing. As far as he knows, the imperial court doesn't pay attention to the Navy at all, but Liu Jiajun pays great attention to the Navy.
Since Zheng Zhibao joined in, Liu Jiajun's navy is the most powerful in the north. With this powerful navy, they traverse the northern waters. Even if they can't get on the land, they can retreat to the sea. The imperial court doesn't care about him. This is the place where the Liu family has no fear.
Moreover, Chen Wenruo was even more surprised that in addition to huge warships, many huge merchant ships also began to drive in one by one and park here. It can be said that the boats are connected with clouds. At a glance, they are loaded with all kinds of military materials. At a glance, Chen Wenruo can be sure that Liu Jiajun will make great moves.
Liu Jiajun has a relatively small territory on land and relatively few troops, but at sea, he has a powerful navy. In addition to the Navy that can sling the officers and soldiers, this Navy also enables them to attack any city along the coast of the Ming Dynasty. With Liu Bu's intelligence, he will certainly not attack cities in the north, Instead, he used the navy to quickly transport his army from the north to Yangzhou, and then he could take Yangzhou.
If cities are pushed across the land, when these cities are almost destroyed, the Yangzhou city will be ready or the people will flee.
However, he sent troops from the sea to attack a place unexpectedly, so that the other party had no time to respond. Chen Wenruo can be sure that even if he did not start his own army and Liu Bu sent a large army to raid here, he can quickly take Yangzhou and catch Wu Zongda, Wu Feifan and others.
Chen Wenruo was taken to Liu Bu by Liu Bu's attendants.
Chen wenweak said loudly, "at the end of the left behind camp in Yangzhou, Chen Wenruo pays a visit to marshal Liu! Marshal Wan Sheng!"
Liu Bu is now studying the mountains and terrain in his huge sand basin. When he heard Chen Wen coming again, he raised his head and smiled. He said, "you're wrong. It's not Yangzhou left behind camp, but Yangzhou division."
If Chen Wenruo was stunned, he just reacted. Liu Bu promoted him as a teacher on the spot, which made him very happy and excited. He immediately half knelt down, gave a military salute and said, "I will be very grateful and would like to die for the marshal."
Liu Bu returned to the military salute and said, "Wan Sheng!" Liu Bu personally helped Chen Wenruo who was half kneeling up. He said, "General Chen, you did a good job and didn't disappoint me. This time, you really wanted to doze off. The pillow came and saved a lot of things."
Chen Wenruo said to him, "today's achievements can only be achieved by the Marshal's layout, strategizing and decisive battle for thousands of miles in advance. At the end, he will not dare to take credit."
This is also a fact. Chen Wenruo was just a child student and didn't even have enough to eat. However, after joining Liu Jiajun, he worked hard and played a great role in this huge platform and became an excellent general.
Before Chen Wenruo took Yangzhou, he was just an ordinary battalion commander and an ordinary officer, but when he took Yangzhou, he could squeeze into the ranks of the top generals of the Liu family army. For example, Liu Bu was also very popular and immediately appointed him as the new Yangzhou division commander.
This is the Sixth Division openly established by Liu Jiajun, which is the main Legion.
Liu Jiajun's current military force is based on five divisions as the core force. Although each division is equipped with 10000 people, basically each division has exceeded this number. They are launched as a strategic strike force.
Because of this, their number has reached an amazing 100000. For example, after they control the three Western prefectures, they will set up Dongchang division, Yanzhou division and Jinan division respectively.
As a force for guarding this place or conquering the world, basically every government sets up a division.
Their troops should not only guard the place, but also take the initiative to attack and invade the field. Therefore, after he controlled Yangzhou, he first established Yangzhou division. Although the platform system was not established, he first built this frame.
First of all, Chen Wenruo was appointed as the teacher of Yangzhou division. He believes that with Chen Wenruo's ability, he can certainly be competent for this position. He can recruit more than 2500 people in a battalion, which is fully expanded by five times. With his ability, he is a person who can pry the earth by giving you a lever. In that case, give him a division name, Give him weapons and equipment and he can pull a division out.
Liu Bu is impressed by this person's ability. In a word, experts are among the people. It depends on whether you can find out. Do you have to make a "Da Ming Da Ren show"?
After they beat back the imperial court's attack this time, they got a chance to breathe. He knew that this opportunity was very rare. If they did not make good use of this opportunity, the imperial court would bring them great trouble by mobilizing troops from all sides and encircling them with all their strength next year.
So they are also looking for ways to break the situation and break the current dilemma and crisis.
The best way to break the current crisis is to break the encirclement of the imperial court. The imperial court has begun to see Ni Duan's encirclement of the Liu family. That is to siege from all aspects. Since the Liu family has taken out their hands, why wait until the enemy hits the door? Instead of taking the initiative to fight out, disrupt their plans and disrupt their deployment?
Liu Bu once led the army south and served as the general army of Fengyang. However, he knows how empty the troops are and how weak the defense is in the area of Jianghuai?
The local defense was already empty, and it became even more empty because of the mobilization of troops to various places to support them. What was worse was the maysilver battle, which basically drained the wealth of the 13 governments in the south of the Yangtze River, leaving the people's livelihood withered and impoverished.
When these rich people have no money, they try their best to squeeze these people and squeeze oil and water out of them, hoping to compensate for their losses. Officials are more crazy to plunder people's wealth and plunder people's wealth, which makes people's resentment boil. In fact, Jiangnan, the richest place in Daming, is full of war smoke, even though there are no civil uprisings and unrest in many places, But if you sit on a volcano, it will erupt at any time.
As soon as Liu Bu thought of breaking the game, he immediately thought of launching an attack from the south of the Yangtze River. As long as they launch an attack from these directions, they basically have no power to check and balance them.
Moreover, Daming's troops in the Jiangnan area are empty, but he is mobilizing troops to the southwest, Guangdong, Guangxi and Huguang areas. Once his troops are assembled, it will cause them great trouble. Therefore, they decided to take the lead and disrupt here first. Even if they can't occupy the Jiangnan, they can disrupt the deployment of the imperial court.
If we can attack and occupy the south of the Yangtze River, we can take the richest place of Daming as our own. They will have no worries. Daming will decline even more if he loses the tax land of the south of the Yangtze River and doesn't have so much money and food to support the army.
So they had no choice but to go south, and they all knew that the Zheng family would fall out with their Liu family at any time.
At present, the imperial court has not ordered the Zheng family to send troops. It doubts the relationship between them, but it will always eliminate the doubt. When the imperial court has no choice, it is a straw. He is regarded as a life-saving rope, so he will make great conditions for the Zheng family to send troops. At that time, they will be more passive.
So they began to decide to go south on a large scale and occupy more places. It's best to go to Fujian, which can make the Zheng family afraid and dare not bet easily.
When they gathered their men for a meeting in Jinan, they basically had no choice as soon as the meeting was held, and immediately decided to go south on a large scale.
When they began to make a good battle plan, prepare enough food, salaries and troops, and go south with all their strength, they actually received the news that Chen Wenruo set up troops from Yangzhou and took Yangzhou in one fell swoop. This was just a word. They dozed off and the pillow came.
