Chapter 433 White Emperor City!

Chapter 433 White Emperor City!
The big ship berthed at the ferry of Jiangzhongshan City, Wei Ying took the lead to land first, and then showed the prince token.

The general guarding Baidi City, named Zhao Chongji, is the deputy envoy of Ningjiang Jiedu in Kuizhou, guarding the east gate here.

And the envoy of the Ningjiang Jiedu envoy was Gao Yanchou, who was considered one of the few generals in Hou Shu who could act alone.However, at this time Gao Yanchou was not in Baidi City, but in the General's Mansion in Kuizhou's city on the north bank of the Yangtze River.

When Zhao Chongji heard that the second prince was coming, he immediately brought people to greet him.

"The last general Zhao Chongji pays homage to the Second Highness!"

Meng Xuanyu boarded the boat, met Zhao Chongji at close range, and waved: "General Zhao, there is no need to be polite. It is not easy for you generals to guard the city gates here and prevent the Song army from pressing down on the border. My highness is returning from an envoy to the Tang Kingdom, passing through this city. Come up and visit the generals."

After hearing this, Zhao Chongji and the others felt their hearts warm, and their faces showed a bit of relief.

The prince personally came to visit and comfort them. They were on the front line in fear, always on guard against the invasion of the Song army, and felt that it was worthwhile to pay.

"His Royal Highness brought some wine and martial arts scripts, and left a few people who can read and write to tell martial arts stories to the soldiers in the army, so as to enrich the leisure life of the soldiers."

Meng Xuanyu smiled slightly. He bought a lot of martial arts story books from Runzhou Bookstore, followed Su Chen's suggestion, and planned to leave some in the frontline barracks, and send people to explain martial arts stories every day like a book lecturer, so as to increase the personal experience of these soldiers. Heroism, the spirit of resistance.

In many cases, resistance to foreign invasion depends on a fighting spirit.

With spiritual cohesion and motivating goals, it is like fighting chicken blood, you can go through life and death, and become courageous.

In martial arts novels, the "chivalrous spirit" is very valuable.

The great hero, for the country and the people!

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Zhao Chongji bowed his hand and thanked the second prince together with the generals.

Meng Xuanyu planned to stay here for one night, and let someone change the boat by the way. The original boat was damaged after the fight and fire last night.

"Stay here for one night today, and observe the defense measures of Baidi City by the way. My Highness has returned from the Tang Dynasty and has some plans for deployment. I plan to discuss it with the generals."

Meng Xuanyu was well aware of the importance of Baidi City, so she had to check the defense deployment here to be at ease.

By the way, let Su Chen observe it again, and then make some good suggestions, that's the key.

Now he regards Su Chen as a crouching dragon or a young phoenix.

Zhao Chongji nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "Your Highness, please enter Baidi City!"

"Okay! I'll just bring some of the guards in, and the rest will unload and change ships here."

After Meng Xuanyu finished speaking, she stepped forward with her hands behind her back, looking like a superior.

At this time, Su Chen and Peng Qingqing had already disembarked, followed the team of dozens of people who entered the city, looked left and right, and watched this place located in the Three Gorges area of ​​the Yangtze River, a special location in the heart of the river.

Baidi City occupies the west entrance of Kuimen, and uses the dangerous mountain-shaped water potential of Kuimen to build a city. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and controlled by height.

Looking around, the city enclosing the city and the city suppressing the city have strong characteristics of a military fortress.

Because Baidi City is naturally easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is located in the key area of ​​the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, it has naturally become a must-have for military strategists in ancient dynasties.

During the Warring States period, the state of Chu seized this place and was able to advance westward. Gongsun Shu of the Western Han Dynasty took advantage of this place to separate one side. , Gongwei Bachu".

Especially during the Song-Yuan War, Baidi City was one of the "Four Yus" in the Southern Song Dynasty and one of the "Eight Pillars" in Eastern Sichuan. etc., jointly constructed the defense system of the mountain city on the western front of the Southern Song Dynasty regime.

Walking in the mountain city, Su Chen felt the wonderful feeling of the vicissitudes of the sea and the history. The time and space have changed, the place has not changed, but the people and things are different.

Zhao Chongji said politely: "Your Highness is here on a mission, and the boat and car are exhausted. Please go to the general's mansion in Baidi City to rest and drink a few more glasses for lunch to cleanse Your Highness."

Meng Xuanyu shook his head, he had no intention of accepting the wind and dust, and cut straight to the point: "General Zhao, please lead the way, show me a few fortresses in the mountain city, and ask General Zhao to drag out all the fortresses, and plan how to defend against the enemy. Your Highness will only stay here for one day, and I hope it will be useful, and we will work together to keep the east gate."

Zhao Chongji was a little surprised. He thought that the prince was just talking just now, but he didn't expect to be serious about his beautiful words at the beginning.

"Then please Your Highness take a walk with the last general to inspect the fortifications."

Meng Xuanyu nodded and said, "Okay, let's go now!"

As Zhao Chongji walked, he explained to the second prince: "At present, the Song army is ready to move. Murong Yanzhao sent people to attack Caogu in the frontier and blocked the river downstream. On the land, the troops led by Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin are already approaching Kuizhou. The location. The Song Dynasty’s intention to use troops against Shu has been clearly revealed, but I still can’t deduce whether the Song army will attack Kuizhou City first by land, or deploy ships from the river to attack Baidi City. I want to hear the second prince’s opinion !"

The rest of the generals nodded and looked at the second prince, wanting to listen to the prince's analysis and provide them with strategic guidance.

Meng Xuanyu coughed dryly, then suddenly smiled slightly and said, "My Highness and the counselors around me have long deduced this question during the journey. How about it, Mr. Chen will explain it to the generals."

Su Chen despised the second prince in his heart, and kicked the ball to him.

He pondered for a while, and then said: "According to my inference, if the Song army attacks Shu in an all-round way, it will go on two routes. One is the Fengzhou area in the north, and there will be a large army on Chencang Road and Jinniu Road; From the Yangtze River as a breakthrough."

"The situation here, according to the Second Prince's analysis, the real main force of the Song Army in the east should be the soldiers and horses led by Liu Guangyi and Cao Bin. They will attack from Kuizhou City. Baidi City is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Therefore, if the Song Army takes Only by going down to Kuizhou can we besiege the city and land with peace of mind. According to what we have seen, the best defense method is to defend to the death. The Song army has come from far and dangerous places, and the advantage lies in a quick battle. Our army stands firmly on the wall and has a great chance of winning."

After listening to Zhao Chongji and the others, they seemed to have a lot of insight, and they couldn't help but praise: "Your Highness, the Second Highness, is so far-sighted, it's really brilliant!"
