At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the competition for the deer in the world

Chapter 47 Attacking Chu according to plan, going straight to Huai'an

Under the night sky, a rain of arrows fell into the charging thousand Sizhou troops.

Some people fell to the ground directly from the arrow; some people died immediately on the spot; some people were injured and wailed.

These situations happened as they happened, but they did not affect the determination of the advancing Sizhou Army.

Still following behind Chang Yuchun, his eyes showed a firm look.

"Kill Yuan Thief!!"

"Kill Yuan Thief!!"

The loud roar reached the ears of the Yuan army on the Chuzhou city wall, causing their eyes to tremble.

Where are these rebels?The team is neat, the morale is high, and they are not afraid of death. They are more like the official army of Dayuan than any of them.

This is the first time they have seen each other.

Especially Chang Yuchun, who took the lead in the charge, caught their attention.

Seeing this, Chi Tai said to Hutu Chilu: "The leader of the rebel general looks very brave. If our people shoot all the arrows and crossbows at him, he will surely be enraged on the spot. As long as he dies, other People have nothing to fear.”

Hutu Chilu nodded: "In this case, let our people shoot the crossbow at him!"

Then, Hutuchilu looked in one direction, "The second team of archers is ready to aim at the leader of the rebels."

The archers of the second team of the Yuan Army did as they were told.

"Fire the arrows!" Hutu Chilu shouted.

"Shhhhhh!"

"Shhhhhh!"

Chang Yuchun, who was charging ahead, was rushing forward frantically.

As for the bows and arrows shot at him, he kept a cold face, turned the long knife horizontally, and shot down the bows and arrows as fast as lightning.

And his body was still running wildly.

Soon, Chang Yuchun dodged a shower of arrows and rushed to the city of Chuzhou.

For a moment.

A cloud ladder quickly leaned against the wall of Chuzhou city.

The soldiers of the Sizhou Army scrambled to climb up.

However, at this time Chi Tai suddenly ordered Yuan Jun to throw the rolling logs, thunder stones, and hot soup that had been prepared.

Suddenly, the soldiers of the Sizhou Army who climbed the ladder suffered disaster.

The ferocious attack of the soldiers defending the city caused the Sizhou army to suffer heavy casualties for a while.

Chang Yuchun, on the other hand, held a shield in one hand and a long knife in the other, climbing like flying.

When Yuan soldiers on the city wall saw Chang Yuchun's performance, their eyes widened.

Who is this traitor?
It was so fierce, and too powerful.

Chi Tai looked solemnly at Chang Yuchun who was getting closer to the city wall, and said, "Come here, give me a bow."

After a while, Chi Tai's personal soldiers quickly handed over a crossbow and a tube of arrows to Chi Tai.

But Chi Tai took it quickly, then stretched his bow and set up an arrow, and shot in Chang Yuchun's direction, all in one go.

Chang Yuchun was climbing the ladder, and when he was less than two feet away from the city wall, suddenly an alarm sounded in his heart.

There was a "whoosh" in the air, and an arrow shot into Chang Yuchun's pupil.

Chang Yuchun's face changed, and he quickly moved the shield to the front.

"Ding!!"

With a sound, the shield almost broke free from Chang Yuchun's hands.

At this time, the log above the head approached quietly again.

Chang Yuchun had no choice but to lift up the shield and use his hands hard.

The log fell on the shield, causing Chang Yuchun's body to sink.

"bang"

The ladder broke several sections in a row, and Chang Yuchun's body was falling rapidly.

Fortunately, Chang Yuchun caught the ladder in time and did not continue to fall.

The log also flew down from the shield and hit the soldiers of the Sizhou Army below the city, causing screams.

After half an hour.

Cheng De ordered: "Ming Jin withdraws troops!"

And Chang Yuchun didn't hesitate at all when he heard the call to withdraw troops, he quickly slid down the ladder, and then retreated from the city.

Other soldiers of the Sizhou Army retreated one after another, but the Yuan army on the city wall released another burst of arrows, and many soldiers of the Sizhou Army fell down.

Fortunately, in the end Chang Yuchun returned to the army with the remaining soldiers of the Sizhou Army.

The guards of Chuzhou City cheered from top to bottom.

The performance of the siege this time, Cheng De saw everything.

A thousand soldiers of the Sizhou Army suffered heavy casualties.

Cheng De's eyes were cold, and the casualties of the siege were quickly counted.

The Sizhou army had 1000 people, with 670 casualties and three.

Chang Yuchun came to Cheng De's side, with a solemn expression, bowed and said: "General, the subordinates have returned."

Cheng De nodded, "The list of the brothers who were killed or injured, please make a count and send someone to the General's Mansion in Sizhou City."

"Yes." Chang Yuchun replied.

"You worked hard in that battle just now." Cheng De patted Chang Yuchun's shoulder, his eyes showing a solemn expression.

"The subordinates should do their duty, but it's a pity that in Chuzhou, the subordinates did not break through the city wall and rush to the top of the city." Chang Yuchun's face was full of regret.

Cheng De was startled, "There will be a chance in the future."

Chang Yuchun looked at Chuzhou, with a hint of worry in his eyes, "Now Chuzhou Yuan has a large number of soldiers, and our Sizhou army is at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and Chuzhou is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so I am afraid it will be difficult to take it in a short time. gone."

Cheng De was silent for a while, "There will always be opportunities in the future. At present, we are still focusing on the Huai'an strategy. In another hour, I will lead the main force to march towards Huai'an City on Huai'an Road. At the same time, I will leave a thousand cavalry, With the one thousand soldiers from the Qinbattalion and the one thousand people from the Divine Arrow Battalion, I will leave them all to you."

"Yes, General. This subordinate will definitely hold back the Chuzhou Yuan Army for two days." Chang Yuchun responded.

Hearing this, Cheng De frowned and thought for a while, "If you want to hold off the Chuzhou Yuan army for two days, I'm afraid you will have to fight the Yuan army during this period, so as not to make these Yuan troops suspicious."

Chang Yuchun's expression froze, "This—this subordinate knows."

Fighting against each other means death.

Cheng De looked at Chang Yuchun and said: "After I leave with the main force, you will retreat for three miles in a few hours. It is near there, so the suspicious soldiers were sent to convince the Yuan army that there are [-] Sizhou troops. At the same time, we must Send scouts to scatter around and quickly kill the spies sent by the Chuzhou Yuan army to avoid exposing the actual military situation."

Chang Yuchun looked thoughtful, "Yes."

"Go down and do your work first." Cheng De waved his hand.

Chang Yuchun: "Yes, this subordinate will go prepare now."

Immediately, Chang Yuchun left in a hurry.

Looking at Chang Yuchun's back, Cheng De sighed lightly, and went to visit in the direction of the wounded barracks.

When he arrived at the wounded barracks, Cheng De had a complicated expression when he heard the various wailing sounds coming from inside.

At this moment, a soldier of the Sizhou Army walked out of the wounded barracks, and the soldier's arm was wrapped in bandages and soaked in blood.

Seeing Cheng De, the soldier knelt down on one knee and said respectfully, "General."

Cheng De helped the soldier up, "Is the injury serious?"

"General, it's not serious. It's just an arrow in the arm. It will be fine after a while." The soldier replied.

"What's your name?" Cheng De looked at the soldier in front of him.

"General, my name is Haixunzi." An excited expression appeared on Haixunzi's face.

Is your surname Hai?
Hai Rui's name immediately appeared in Cheng De's mind.

Could it be that this person is Hai Rui's ancestor?
Cheng De had some doubts in his heart.

But I feel extremely ridiculous, maybe it's just a coincidence that they have the same surname.

Afterwards, Cheng De continued: "The soldiers who participated in this battle are all warriors of our Sizhou Army. You are very good. After the battle, the corresponding rewards will be sent to you together. You should go ahead! Go inside and have a look."

Hai Xunzi nodded: "Yes."

After watching Hai Xunzi leave, Cheng De kept a calm expression and walked into the wounded barracks.

After consoling the soldiers in the wounded barracks, Cheng De left and returned to the big tent.

Suddenly, at this moment.

The people of Jueshengwei came outside the big tent.

Lan Yu didn't know the person of Jueshengwei, so she stopped him.

Hearing the movement outside the big tent, Cheng De came out, and when he saw the Jueshengwei, he said to Lan Yu: "Next time, if they show up, don't stop them."

Lan Yu was startled, and quickly said: "Yes, General, Lan Yu has remembered."

Cheng De showed a satisfied smile, and looked at Jueshengwei again, "Come in with me!"

Jueshengwei hastily bowed and nodded.

But Sapphire at the side felt astonished, why is this person so rude?

Seeing Jueshengwei follow Cheng De into the big tent, Lan Yu was thoughtful.

As soon as Jueshengwei entered the big tent, he quickly lowered his head, bowed and handed a letter to Cheng De.

Cheng De took it from Jueshengwei, spread out the letter and read it.

After reading it, Cheng De was silent.

Cheng De did not expect that someone from the Sizhou Army would betray the Yuan Army.

I thought that if I did some ideological work for them and gave them good treatment, these things would not happen.

But the reality is that this kind of thing happened.

Unexpected.

Cheng De looked at Jueshengwei, and immediately wrote a letter.

Content of the letter: Block the news, and secretly investigate the few people who have made friends with Zhou Qisan.If there is no problem, let them go.On the contrary, it is strictly enforced.In addition, let Jueshengwei investigate Zhou Qisan's whereabouts, and after finding him, secretly capture him and escort him back to Sizhou City.After the capture of Huai'an Road, there will be a public trial on Zhou Qisan.

After writing the letter, Cheng De turned his attention to Jueshengwei, "Give this letter to Yang Zhongkai of Sizhou City."

Jueshengwei took it solemnly, then bowed and left in a hurry.

Looking at Jueshengwei's back, Cheng De's eyes were cloudy.

Thinking about the rebellion on July [-] this week, what problems are reflected.

a long time.

Cheng De's eyes brightened, maybe it's time to set up a Sizhou Propaganda Department.

On the one hand, it can consolidate its absolute control over the army.

On the other hand, avoid the recurrence of the betrayal of the Sizhou Army on Wednesday and Wednesday.

As for the purpose?It is to subtly influence the soldiers of the Sizhou Army, with himself as the leader.

Always be loyal to yourself.

Thinking of this, Cheng De recalled some details about the establishment of the Sizhou Propaganda Department in his mind.

For example, how does it affect soldiers?
What is the content of the promotion?

For the form, he thought of storytelling, performance, speech, and singing.
At the same time, Cheng De quickly picked up the brush and wrote down all these on the paper.

An hour later.

Cheng De led the main force of the Sizhou Army with nearly 7000 people, marching towards Hongze City on Huai'an Road.

Goal of this trip: Pass through Hongze and go straight to Huai'an.
