Chapter 1209 The general trend

After Zhao Shen and Zu Ti met in the north of the Yangtze River, Zu Ti handed over the vanguard of the Chinese army to Zhao Shen to fight, and he crossed the river from another way and entered the south of the Yangtze River.

Different from Zhao Shi who used Qingqi to engage in guerrilla warfare and go deep into the enemy camp to stir up trouble everywhere, the forward general Zhao Shen wanted to take down the city in Wang Dun's hands and hand it over to someone to manage before he could go further.

  Needs close contact with the Central Army and the Rear Army, so he has a separate radio station and simple generator in his hand, which can be used to contact Zhao Hanzhang and Zu Ti alone.

It's just that his fighting style is unique. He doesn't like to push down steadily. Instead, he likes to only attack fortresses and fight in roundabout ways. In turn, he isolates some people who are not strong in combat, or are forced to defect to Wang Dun, but have no will to resist. Determined official.

 When they realize that they are alone and helpless and cannot fight, and the army from behind is approaching, they will surrender the whole city.

For the rear army, this was simply giving away lives and military honors, and the rear army had a great time picking up the city.

 So Zhao Shen has a good relationship with the army. Whenever he needs to replenish food, armaments and combat personnel, they can respond quickly without delay.

The purpose of the ancestral side is that his play is not large. Until now, he has added a soldier once, and most of the wounded soldiers were sent.

Due to the fast speed of the siege and the erratic route of the army, Wang Dun had lost the support of the people and had a very poor mass base, which made him unable to figure out the details of this army for a while.

 But he still knew that there was a Zhao army behind him. Even if he had decided to abandon Jiangnan and fight in Guangzhou, he could not allow his authority to be challenged in this way.

Moreover, since the Zhao army crossed the river, he also needed a big battle to boost his morale.

Wang Dun sent out false news about this and signaled that his troops would be defeated in Guangchang County and let them pass. He led his troops to ambush midway from Guangchang to Shanyang.

Zhao Shen was still chatty, but after capturing Guangchang County, he did not tell fortunes. Instead, he sent five scouts in a row to investigate along the way.

 The five scouts found nothing.

Zhao Shen frowned and ordered: "Explore again!"

 Further exploration did not reveal anything unusual.

Zhao Shen thought about it and believed in his own judgment more. If there was an ambush on the road... He stared at the map for a while and decided to put in more effort, so he sent an ordinary letter to take two thousand people to Poyang with great fanfare, and he took the The army quietly headed southeast to Le'an.

Wang Dun did not ambush anyone, but he was not discouraged and took a shortcut to Poyang with his army to stop the attack.

The two sides met on the outskirts of Poyang and fought a battle. Pingxin only had 2,000 men and was highly mobile. He didn't need to win the battle. The general's order to him was, "Save the maximum combat effectiveness."

So after he found that he couldn't defeat him, when he found an opportunity, he paid the gold and retreated his troops, turned around and ran away.

Because they only had two thousand people here, and they had been so powerful before, Wang Dun suspected that there was an ambush ahead. The two thousand people were pretending to be defeated and asked you to surrender, so he stopped his generals and said: "Don't pursue the poor invaders, let's go back to Poyang."

The top priority is Nanchang. Nanchang in Yuzhang County must be captured so that he can lead the army southward.

When Ping Xin saw that they stopped chasing, he followed them quietly again, appearing from time to time to harass them. As soon as they turned around, he would run away.

This made Wang Dun's subordinates more convinced that Zhao Shen wanted to invite you to enter the urn, but Wang Dun was a little suspicious and turned to the scouts, "Have you detected their army?"

The scout said: "When we are with them, we have checked the traces after they left. The number of earth stoves should be enough to support about 40,000 people."

Wang Dun frowned even more tightly. After a moment, his expression changed and he shouted, "No, he's trying to attack the east and the west."

If they still have more than 40,000 people, how can it be possible that the same group of people come to attack them every time?

 Sometimes he came over to provoke me twice a day. Wang Dun sent his generals to fight every time, but he would supervise the battle every time. He had a good memory and was very familiar with this rat-like army that appeared from time to time.

"The army is not here. These two thousand people are here to attract our attention. They..." Wang Dun's mind was racing and he quickly thought of Yuhan County. He gritted his teeth and said, "They must have gone to Le'an, Congle An diverted road to Yuhan, and then from Yuhan to Nanchang..."

That is much closer, and it just avoids his sphere of influence.

The magistrate of Le'an County did not surrender to Wang Dun, but tore up the letter written by Wang Dun, and then publicly went to King Shulangya, saying that Wang Dun was a rebellious official and a traitor.

Wang Dun was focused on Jiankang at that time, thinking that as long as he conquered Jiankang, it would be useless for these small county magistrates to oppose him, so he ignored these small county magistrates who opposed him.

Unexpectedly, the let go at that time should be today.

Wang Dun immediately left a group of people to stop the two thousand people, and ordered the army to move forward quickly to reach Nanchang within two days.

At this time, Zhao Shen, with the help of the magistrate of Le'an County, had passed between Le'an and Poyang and arrived at Yuhan, where part of Dai Yuan's army was stationed. He could pass from here to Nanchang.

But Zhao Shen was no longer in a hurry. He went to the outside of Nanchang City in front of Wang Dun. At that time, he and Dai Jiajun went to Nanchang from Yuhan to invite you to the urn.

Zu Ti was very satisfied when he received Zhao Shen's telegram. He immediately ordered the army still in Jiangbei to cross the river, and then divided into three groups, two to Jiangdong to pursue Wang Dun's main force, and one group to go with Zhao Ju, Mi Ce and Wang Yifeng. Recover the city occupied by Wang Dun in the south of the Yangtze River.

Six armies shuttled across the south and east of the Yangtze River, taking over the cities that Zhao Shen had not captured and linking them together.

Zu Ti was very powerful, not only Jiangnan, but also the Wujun area controlled by local nobles and nobles.

 The garrisons in these places mostly obeyed the Zhou family. The current head of the Zhou family was named Zhou Qi.

His grandfather and father were both famous ministers of the state of Wu. His father, Zhou Chu, entered the Jin Dynasty after the death of Wu and became the censor Zhongcheng. He was also in Jiankang at this time. After the Zhao army entered the city, he was forced to stay in the city.

Zu Ti asked him to **** King Langya and his family to Beijing.

Zhou Qi was cautious and knew that it was difficult to refuse, so he agreed.

 Before leaving, he wanted to write a letter to his family.

Zu Ti readily agreed.

Zhou Qi's letter was sent back to Yixing. The Zhou family army, which had been ignoring Wang Dun's army passing by, suddenly attacked Wang Dun's army and blocked their way. Zhao Shi quickly chased after him and left a message for the rear army.

 The two rear armies quickly caught up.

 Zhou Qi’s letter was sent out, and when he crossed the river with King Langya’s family and Director Wang, he couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at the water of the Yangtze River rolling away.

The separation and reunification of the world seems to be governed by the will of heaven, but I wonder if his and Zhou's futures are also destined by fate?

After seeing Zhao Jiajun crossing the river in an orderly manner, the people inside and outside Jiankang City would be curious to watch the excitement and discuss the matter enthusiastically, but there was no disgust or disgust in their expressions. At that time, he knew that the Zhou family should adapt to the current situation. I chose Zhao Hanzhang.

So when Zu Ti "asked" him to stay in Jiankang City to protect King Langya from Wang Dun's assassins, he did not think of escaping, but took advantage of the situation and stayed.

Good night
