Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 430 Bold Prediction
Su Chen returned to the cabin room and visited Peng Qingqing who was not feeling well.

The feeling of seasickness is very uncomfortable. This is the first time for Peng Qingqing to sail against the current in a boat like this. The strong wind blows and the hull shakes back and forth. It is indeed easy to get dizzy and nauseous.

"Qingqing, are you feeling better?" Su Chen asked.

Peng Qingqing sat on the bed, meditated luckily, and gradually got used to it.

Hearing Su Chen's question, Peng Qingqing opened her eyes, nodded slightly and said, "Meditate and exercise, but I can resist it a little bit, it's better."

"I told the cook to make ginger juice, bring it to you, drink it, and the nausea feeling in my stomach will be suppressed, and it won't be so nauseous."

Su Chen took out a bowl of ginger juice from the portable wooden box, and handed it to Peng Qingqing.The latter drank it as he said, and after a while, the nausea in his stomach did ease a lot.

"Take another two days on the boat, and I think I can get used to it."

"Su Chen, where have you been on a boat before? Why haven't I heard of it." Peng Qingqing asked curiously.

Su Chen nonsense said: "When I was young, I used to go out with my master to practice! All the dandies you saw before were all pretended by me in Runzhou. In secret, I would travel around and learn about humanities from all over the world. Traveling thousands of miles is worse than traveling thousands of books..."

"So that's the case!" Peng Qingqing nodded, and asked again: "But why didn't you learn martial arts from an expert?"

Su Chen was embarrassed, and explained: "My master is a writer and a genius doctor, and he doesn't know martial arts..."

"No wonder!" Peng Qingqing smiled.

Su Chen said: "Going to Sichuan this time may be full of twists and turns and dangers. Don't mess around, and you must listen to my arrangement."

Peng Qingqing said with a smile: "I see, I'm already this old, and my martial arts are better than yours. Don't worry, I can protect myself and you too!"

"This has nothing to do with martial arts!" Su Chen retorted.

Peng Qingqing pouted: "You just don't want to admit that I'm good at martial arts?"

"I know you're amazing!" After Su Chen finished speaking, he directly scratched her ribs with his hands, and Peng Qingqing immediately started giggling.

However, after all, Peng Qingqing was a martial arts practitioner, and his martial arts were much better than Su Chen's, so when he couldn't tickle the opponent, he directly grabbed Su Chen and put Su Chen under him.

"Ouch!" Su Chen restrained him with one hand, and directly attacked with the other, grabbing Qingqing's upper body.

"Ah!" Peng Qingqing screamed all over, let go of Su Chen, and pulled that strange hand.

Su Chen rolled over and pinned Peng Qingqing under him.

Peng Qingqing was a little ashamed, and was about to use her internal strength to send Su Chen flying.

Su Chen bowed his head and directly sealed Qingqing's lips.

"Woooo!"

Peng Qingqing struggled a few times, then gradually became weak, and the strength to resist disappeared.

The two figures were entangled together.

The big ship sailed on the river for several days, went upstream, passed through Chizhou, Jiangzhou, and Ezhou, and was about to leave the border of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Ezhou is heavily guarded by the Tang army. In the past, Nanping and Chu countries came to invade, but now they are used to guard against the Song army.

Because Nanping and Chu were occupied by the Song army, the descendants of the royal families of Nanping and Chu were all taken to Bianjing.

Therefore, there are officials appointed by the Song Dynasty to take office here to manage people's livelihood in these two places.

The local army was also reorganized. Although it was not the main force of the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty, it had to be on guard against the border.

"The next stop is Jiangling City. The navy of the Song Army is patrolling the river, and they want to check the ships going west."

Meng Xuanyu found Su Chen and explained to him his current location and the troubles he was facing.

Su Chen calmly said: "It's okay, no one knows our identities, and Song Jun won't make things difficult!"

Meng Xuanyu nodded, and asked again: "Tell me, if the Song Dynasty officials send people to conquer Shu, which general will be appointed to take command? I can't guess right now, the next step of the Song Dynasty officials' strategy!"

Based on the historical records, Su Chen half-speculated: "It should be Wang Quanbin who took the command. In fact, the officials of the Great Song Dynasty made an arrangement two months ago. Wang Quanbin was promoted to be the military governor of the Zhongwu Army. He went to Fengzhou for business. Underground, ready to conquer Shu at any time."

Meng Xuanyu was a little surprised and said: "I thought Murong Yanzhao had a better chance. He is currently in the territory of Shu, leading a navy from the Jiangling area into Shu, and has been launching small-scale raids since landing, which seems to be a test. The Jiangling navy is also constantly building and growing."

Su Chen explained: "Song army generals Murong Yanzhao and Li Chuyun led the local army to go south at the end of last year, in the name of helping Hunan Wuping army put down Zhang Wenbiao's rebellion, and borrowed Jingnan; When sending envoys to greet the army, Li Chuyun led thousands of cavalry to attack and occupy Jiangling City, Gao Jichong was forced to surrender, and Jingnan was easily suppressed by the Song army."

"Two months ago, Murong's Ministry had just won the land of Chu, and the army under it was attrition. Most of the reinforcements were local troops and surrendered troops. They attacked the land of Bashu, and the mountains and rivers were dangerous. The Song court would not be at ease. Therefore, In the end, the main force of the crusade against Chu will inevitably mobilize elite troops from the Northern Forbidden Army, and they don’t need to be too many, but they are all elite soldiers, so that they can bring a small amount of food and supplies and enter the dangerous Bashu Mountains, making it easier to march.”

Meng Xuanyu's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "So that's what Brother Chen meant. It wasn't Murong Yanzhao's troops in the southeast that really attacked Shu, but the Jiedu envoy Wang Quanbin and Fengzhou Tuanlian in the Fengzhou area. Make Zhang Hui and others?"

Through the history, Su Chen already knew the deployment thinking of the Great Song Emperor Zhao Kuangyin in advance, nodded and said: "Well, that's what it means, so, the focus of our defense deployment is on those ancient roads! If what I expected is not bad, Ancient Chen Cang Road and Jinniu Road, are the main marching routes of the Song Army?"

Meng Xuanyu was completely surprised. The entire Shu Kingdom was guarding against the navy of Murong Yanzhao and Li Chuyun in the southeast, but Su Chen deduced that the real main force of the Song Kingdom to attack Shu came from Fengzhou!
This was indeed unexpected, but it made him have to be cautious.

Who is Su Chen?The number one talented scholar in Jiangzuo, his talent, knowledge of things, medical skills, etc., are all second to none in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Since he made such a firm guess, Meng Xuanyu believed it [-]% in his heart.

The shadow of a tree and the name of a person are like this.

Meng Xuanyu sighed: "When I go back this time, I should propose to my father how to increase the focus on guarding against Jinniu Dao."

"Yes!" Su Chen nodded, and then reminded Meng Xuanyu: "I have read all the information about the generals in Sichuan that His Highness gave me, and there are not many who can be used to great effect. I circled a few people, you should strongly recommend them. "

"Oh, brother Chen can choose who it is, and he can't be wrong." Meng Xuanyu showed a slight smile.

Su Chen continued: "The first one is Han Baozheng. This person not only has military talent, but also has a good sense of governing the country and being an official. He is currently the deputy envoy of the Privy Council and the envoy of Xuanhui North Court. He can be used as a defense against the Song army from the north. The main force of the attack."

Meng Xuanyu nodded and said: "That's right, Mr. Han, he is upright, loyal to the emperor and patriotic, dares to state affairs in the court, expresses his own opinions, and has high prestige in the army. He is fully in charge of the war in the north and defends against the enemy outside the country. He is indeed the best candidate. .”

Su Chen said again: "That's true, but this Master Han is only a worthy person in your Sichuan army. But compared with the northern tiger generals and elite troops, he is still inferior. He alone cannot resist Live. You can adjust Wenzhou governor Quan Shixiong, Xingzhou governor Lan Siwan, as the right arm and right arm, take care of each other, advance and retreat with evidence, support each other, and jointly guard several important passes on the Jinniu Road. As long as it drags on for a year, the Song army will Back off and return in vain."

"Oh, will it really be like this?" Meng Xuanyu was skeptical, mainly because there was no movement in Fengzhou in the north, and Su Chen's prediction seemed to be true, so he found it a bit hard to believe.

"Wait a little longer, and you'll find out."

Su Chen didn't say any more, because if he continued to speak, he would predict too much, and he would not be able to explain clearly in the future.
