Chapter 254

In the government hall.

The civil and military officials of the Chinese army gathered together. The civil and military officials were almost flat. The military generals on the left were five chief military officers, Cao Bianjiao and Xiaocui, and four Shangshu, a total of 11.

The civil servants on the right are Qian bin, followed by seven Shangshu, then Princess de and Li. If you count Zhang Yan standing beside Qin Huan, it happens to be eleven.

Zhang Yan was unwilling to attend. In the end, she couldn't resist Qin Huan. She had to wear men's clothes, but she didn't want to stand behind anyway.

Qin Huan didn't care about this. He let her stand beside him. After all, he used to be the queen.

It's nothing for others. After all, Zhang Yan's appearance and temperament are so outstanding that anyone who sees her will have the idea that she is a genuine lady. Therefore, it's no surprise that everyone is so lucky to Qin Huan.

If they had such a wonderful lady, they would not show up at all, but treasure it in the back house.

Only the red warbler standing in the first place on the left has some taste in her heart, and her eyes look at Zhang Yan with a trace of hostility.

"Dear Aiqing, it has been nearly two months since the Chinese army captured Ruzhou in Nanyang. At this time, the counties are as stable as Mount Tai. Our army has sufficient armor and high morale, so the king decided to go south to capture Xiangyang!"

Qin Huan glanced at more than 20 civil servants and generals and said slowly.

Seeing the eyes of these civil servants, they obviously became more awed than before. Secretly, this military parade was really effective.

The reason for this parade is to make these civil servants more determined to follow the Chinese army, and to frighten the gentry in all counties.

The third is to reassure the people everywhere, make them more support the Chinese army, and have the courage to pick up the knife at the critical moment to defend the fruits and family.

Fourth, it is to increase the cohesion and self-confidence of the Chinese army, and test the results of running in over a month.

Naturally, the people would not object. The generals asked for war one after another, while the civil servants flattered and congratulated the army on its victory.

"Red warbler!"

"The end will come!"

Seeing that Qin Huan was the first to call himself, Hong Ying hurried out of the line and replied excitedly, but Qin Huan's next words slightly disappointed her.

"Order you to lead the first town to garrison Ruzhou. In any case, you can't go to war without my order. Just stay in Ruzhou city for me, you know?"

Qin Huan stared at her and was really worried about this girl. After all, she had to face sun chuanting's army alone.

"Yes! Don't worry. I will guard Ruzhou city to death. People will die in the city and people will die in the city. "

Although she was no longer willing, the red warbler could only respond with a fist, and finally made a firm promise with a face.

"Yes!"

"Qin tie, Li Yan!"

Qin Huan nodded and then began to point.

"The end will come!"

"My subordinates are here!"

They hurried out of the line, but Li Yan claimed to be his subordinates and obviously didn't want to be summarized as a military general.

"Qin tie, order you to lead the second town and artillery battalion, go south to capture Fancheng, and then build a ship. Li Yan is the deputy and the staff from the side."

"Yes!"

"Qin Wu, Niu Jinxing!"

"The end will come!"

This time, they had some surprises in their joy.

"Qin Meng, you are ordered to lead the third town to attack Gucheng first, and then take the trail to attack Nanzhang with the sixth town. Niu Jinxing is the deputy and the military staff. After the two armies meet, Qin Shuang is the commander and you are the deputy commander. After all, he is more familiar with Nanzhang than you, okay?"

"I see!"

Qin Meng nodded and replied that he was still unconvinced, but Qin Huan didn't care.

"The rest of the towns and battalions, the whole army ready for war, ready to go! Each department should perform its own duties and should not slack off!

From now on, martial law has been enforced. All counties should strictly guard the official roads. If they find any suspicious people, they should take them first. If they find a sneak attack by the Ming army, they should immediately report to the police. All villages should set up village protection teams and towns should set up town protection teams. All adult men should organize and take bamboo guns if they don't have weapons. "

"Yes!"

Everyone saw such a great enemy, and was slightly surprised. The officials were not able to make complaints about the government. They had not yet come to the army.

Qin Huan didn't care what they thought. He had long wanted to set up a village self defense force, but everyone had just assigned houses and fields and needed to take care of them.

After all, the doors and windows of many houses must be torn down and need to be repaired. Moreover, some furniture also needs time to buy.

After the meeting, Qin Huan called the red warbler Li Yan and others to the study and told them to go down and prepare.

In fact, he wanted Li Yan to help the red warbler defend Ruzhou, but when he thought of the story of the red lady and Li Yan in history, he felt green on his head. He was really worried about getting them together.

The next day, the two armies started to March south. Because it was a siege and had to cross the river all the way, Qin Huan did not assign cavalry to the two armies.

At the same time, local martial law orders to protect villages and towns were also issued to counties and towns. Sentry horses also kept running to the east to inquire about the trend of Lu Xiangsheng's army.

Almost two days after the Chinese army set out, Lu Xiangsheng, who was resting in runing mansion, received the news. Yang Sichang also received the news in Xiangyang. Three days later, sun chuanting in Luoyang also learned about the situation of the Chinese Army going south.

After nearly two months of training, sun chuanting's 20000 Qin troops have been decent, and another 60000 recruits have been recruited, and a large number of Fran machine guns have been built.

Obviously, after defeating the Chuang queen, Lao sun also made a ruthless payment. He not only stabilized the situation in Henan province again, but also had surplus money and food to recruit troops and horses.

Almost as soon as he received the news, sun chuanting took the army like Ruzhou.

Because he and Lu Xiangsheng had already discussed that the Chinese army would not move, nor would they. After all, both of them needed time to train their troops. They fought a decisive battle in a hurry, and their chances of winning were very low.

But if the Chinese army wants to attack Xiangyang south, the two men will march from the north and East at the same time.

Sun chuanting attacked Ruzhou first, and Lu Xiangsheng led his troops to contain the main force of the Chinese army in the East. After sun chuanting captured Ruzhou, the two armies met under Nanyang city to fight to the death with the Chinese army.

After Lu Xiangsheng took 80000 troops south to runing mansion, Niu Er and shebatian were not their opponents at all.

Even if song offered advice, after the two wars, the soldiers and horses still lost 7788. Not to mention fighting Nanjing, even self-protection became a problem. Finally, they had to hide in Dabie Mountain and go to Luo Rucai.

If Lu Xiangsheng's energy was not on them, it would be better to say whether he could escape to the mountains.

Similarly, Lu Xiangsheng also received a large number of money, grain and materials, only a lot more than sun chuanting, so he recruited 20000 children from his hometown to re-establish Tianxiong army. With the captured anti thief soldiers, there was a full 150000 army.

However, just as Lu Xiangsheng was preparing to lead his troops eastward, Yang Sichang personally killed runing house all the way around the clock. As soon as they met, they almost didn't fight.
