Chapter 674

The wedding night of the couple's bridal chamber lasted until the early morning, and Yushu fell asleep exhausted.

Su Chen got up at nine o'clock, cooked breakfast and lunch for Yushu, then put on a robe, rode a red tiger, and set off for the military parade outside the north city gate.

today!

It's the day to crusade against the rebels in Shu County!

The matter is of great importance, and Su Chen has absolute confidence!

When he brought Fan Kuai and Zhao Yun to the north wall of Xianyang City, he was greeted by an elite army of 10,000 captains!

The Qin army in this period was mainly divided into four branches!

the first branch. It was the 300,000 frontier guards led by the Meng brothers who were responsible for building the Great Wall in the northern border and defending against the Huns.

The second is the 200,000 army led by Wang's father and son. Responsible for guarding Donghu.

The main force in the south, led by generals Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao, is 500,000 troops, responsible for commanding the Lingnan area and blocking the pass.

And the fourth branch, which is also the strongest one, is responsible for patrolling the safety of Xianyang City and the palace.

This army is divided into three branches, namely the Duwei Army, the Zhongwei Army and the Weiwei Army!

Wei Weijun is the elite guards responsible for guarding the palace. Only ten thousand.

The Lieutenant Army is the elite guards guarding Xianyang, with about 20,000 people.

The Duwei Army's duty is to ensure the tranquility of the outskirts of Xianyang, with about 100,000 people.

In history, these troops were later annihilated by Xiang Yu.

In the last years of the Qin Dynasty when the world was divided and the heroes came together, the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi led troops to suppress the rebellion everywhere, but Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo's main army of 500,000 people refused to send troops on the grounds of blocking the pass.

These 500,000 people eventually stayed in Lingnan to recuperate.

Su Chen often thought that if Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo sent troops to serve as the king, the Qin Dynasty would not have perished so early. After all, the Qin Dynasty was the first unified dynasty in the history of China, and its national power was unprecedentedly strong. It's a pity...

Outside the North City Gate.

Soldiers on the battlefield.

The elite of the five thousand captains all raised their heads, looking at the youngest general in the empire on the city wall, their hearts were filled with complicated emotions.

Su Chen was also looking at them.

His eyes are as sharp as a falcon, his face is cold and stern, just standing with his hands behind his back, his aura is like a long spear piercing the sky!

"Soldiers!"

suddenly.

A huge wave of sound erupted from Su Chen's mouth.

All the elite captains of ten thousand could hear clearly.

"I know what you're thinking!"

"This time the Western Expedition to suppress the rebellion, 10,000 versus hundreds of thousands. It's a narrow escape, hitting a stone with an egg!"

"But, you are wrong!"

"I, Su Chen, swear here today that I will never make fun of the lives of any soldiers, and never fight unprepared battles! Within a month, I will take down the Tianfu City of the old thief Li Yan, and escort him back to Beijing for questioning! "

"But my ugly words are up front. When I need you to rush forward, who dares to back down, one word—"

"die!!!"

Say it!

Su Chen took out the Chun Jun sword, and slashed out with a volley!

"boom!"

A zhang-long translucent sword energy erupted from the sword body. When it fell to the ground under the city wall, a sword hole several meters deep was cut out!

All the elite captains felt their scalps go numb!

If this sword falls among them, it can kill at least a dozen people!

"Set off!"

With Chun Jun in the sheath, Su Chen turned around, waved his sleeves, and got off the city wall.

The army slowly marched westward.

Flags block out the sun and dust fills the sky.

Xianyang is about 800 kilometers away from Shu County. According to the marching speed of the ancient mixed infantry and cavalry troops, it would take 20 days at the fastest to arrive.

It is a big event for the army to go out.

Grain, ordnance. Supplies such as quilts and tents must be complete without any mistakes.

Especially food and grass is the most important thing, Su Chen sent Zhao Yun to guard and escort them personally.

In ancient times, when marching and fighting, food was the most basic guarantee. If the soldiers couldn't even eat enough. Then how to fight?

During the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony, the reason why Liu Bang was able to defeat Xiang Yu was that Xiao He, an excellent logistics minister, ensured a stable supply of grain, grass, bedding and other materials.

But what made Nan Yiyun, Chen Le, Su Jiao, and Li You restless was that Su Chen actually ordered that no siege weapons be brought!

Ladders, building carts, wooden mantles, crash carts, trench carts, catapults... none of them!

"General!"

"IMHO!"

"You may not know much about marching and fighting. If we don't bring crash cars and ladders, I'm afraid we won't be able to capture even a city!"

Deputy General Nan Yiyun. He persuaded Su Chen sincerely.

"Yes, General!"

"Wars are no joke!"

"If the entire army is wiped out and returns empty-handed, His Majesty will be furious!"

"General, please listen to our advice..."

Chen Le. Su Jiao, Li You and other generals rode beside Su Chen, persuading him non-stop. Anxious like ants on a hot pan.

Su Chen gave them a reassuring smile:

"Relax, generals."

"What a big deal it is to lead troops to fight, how can I treat it as a child's play?"

"Siege of the city, Shanren has his own clever plan, please put your heart in your stomach."

After Su Chen finished speaking, he stopped talking.

In ancient times, siege was indeed a very difficult task, and often required a huge price.

But in Su Chen's eyes, it was easy and freehand.

With his cultivation base, wouldn't it be enough to just jump into the city and open the city gate by force?

No matter how bad it is, use the heavy-duty transport truck that wanders the earth to directly smash it away!

Several generals looked at each other in dismay, and it was still difficult to let go of their hearts, but they had to obey the commander's order.

Just when Su Chen led 10,000 troops. When he left Xianyang City mightily, a thin and ghostly figure appeared on the city wall, with fierce and murderous aura in his eyes.

"Su Chen..."

"When you are defeated, your women and wealth will belong to me, Ying Hu Hai!"

"Hey, I'm looking forward to this day!"

…

…

After a few days.

Shu County.

Tianfu City.

This is the lair of Li Yan, the governor of Shu County, and the most impenetrable city in Shu County.

Inside the Li Mansion. A dinner party is being held.

"Wow ha ha ha ha ha!"

"Our emperor, His Majesty, is really stupid!"

"A mere 10,000 troops dare to attack our Shu County, who gave him the confidence!?"

"We have more than ten cities, large and small, and an army of two hundred thousand, so what if he, Meng Tian, ​​comes personally?"

"Hey! It's only 10,000 small soldiers, why should you care about it, I, Liao, will clean it up for him in two days!"

Dozens of generals, while drinking and eating meat, admired Meiji's dancing posture, drinking and laughing.

But on the high seat, Li Yan, the old prefect who was nearly seventy years old, couldn't be happy at all.

Because his own son Li Si was killed by that dog Emperor Yingzheng!

Torn apart alive to die!

He defended against the Qiang Kingdom for the Great Qin, and stayed in the Shu County for decades. It can be said that he is loyal, but he did not expect such a result in exchange for it!

"Win the government..."

"It's not that the old man wants to rebel, it's you who forced me to rebel!"

"If one day, the sky has eyes, I will take your head from your neck as a sacrifice to the spirit of my son Li Si in heaven!!"

Li Yan was sitting on the chair, with his thin and vigorous right hand tightly clutching the Jiujue, his eyes were full of blood and deep hatred.
