"No need between you and me, I'll go first." Li Jilong grinned. Wang Ba gave him several military achievements. He could imagine that after the war, his number of beheadings would inevitably shock the chins of those in the court.

"Okay, be careful, there are opportunities for military achievements." Wang Ba nodded. He was injured and could retreat. Li Jilong was intact. If he retreated again, he might be charged with a deserter.

Li Jilong nodded and continued to kill forward.

"Sir, what exactly do the Southern Chu army want to do?" Murong Yanzhao looked at the scene in front of him, and was a little puzzled. It was quite unreasonable for Yang Shifan to take the move.

"In my humble opinion, I'm afraid I have given up the intention of blocking our army's landing, but instead use our superior forces to kill and injure our elite soldiers." Yuwen Su could see clearly that except for the first wave, the other party had never launched an attack on the formation after that. Instead, he used crossbow arrows to cooperate with the elite combat power to strangle their soldiers.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely be able to gain a foothold on the riverside today. The strategic intention is realized, but in terms of tactics, they have suffered a lot.

"I'll inform you and launch a counterattack as soon as possible!" Murong Yanzhao also realized something was wrong. He let the other party do this. Their losses were too great and they had to fight back strongly.

When the Song Dynasty imperial guards beat the counterattack drums and were about to charge towards the Southern Chu army, the opponent directly called the gold and retreated. The soldiers of the Southern Chu who had the advantage quickly retreated like a tide, leaving behind a large number of corpses.

Most of them were left by the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, a small number of them were soldiers of the Southern Chu. In addition, a small number of them were injured, lying on the ground wailing, hoping to be taken back for treatment as soon as possible.

"Ming Jin to withdraw the troops!" Murong Yanzhao's face was as heavy as water, as if he was hitting a cotton punch without any force, so he was naturally uncomfortable.

As for sending troops to chase him, he didn't dare to do so. Who knew if there was an ambush, so he could only watch the other party leave.

"Nan Chu Yang Shifu has always been upright in his military service. When I saw him today, I was a man who did not follow the rules." Yu Wen Su shook his head. During this period, they were not idle in Jiangning. They found out all the news about Nan Chu. Yang Shifu was the most important figure among them, so he naturally understood his personality thoroughly.

"It's a bit like a boy." Murong Yanzhao thought of the little bastard who made him grit his teeth. If he was asked to meet him again, he would definitely look good.

"That kid is in Xiongzhou now and has a quarrel with Nan Han again. He should not be able to interfere here." Yuwen Su felt that Murong Yanzhao was thinking too much, and how could he allow Gao Ji to meddle in other people's business in this military and national affairs of Nan Chu?

"No matter how many, go ashore first, and then go to Yuezhou after all the troops cross the river tomorrow." Murong Yanzhao nodded, letting him be as treacherous as a fox, and facing the strong push of his upright troops, it was difficult to resist.

In Yuezhou City, Yang Shifan looked at the battle report in his hand, without any joy or worry, and the Song army was getting closer and closer. How could this small result cover up his sorrow?

"Sir, are you all ready?" Yang Shifan looked at Shi Fang and led the troops to fight. He had no choice but to leave other matters to Shi Fang to coordinate.

"Everyone is ready. If you don't want to move out, each household will only have two months of food rations. Let him scrape three feet of the ground, and military food must be transported from the rear." Shi Fang has not been idle these days. He has worked with the government to migrate the surrounding grain and population southward.

, moved directly to the mountains near Hengzhou, preparing to fight a protracted war.

At present, in Yuezhou City, except for the soldiers of Nanchu, most of the people have moved away, leaving only two months of food in the city. If they abandon the city in advance, they will be burned. If they can be kept for two months, the other party will inevitably withdraw their troops.

When the news of the Yangtze River Battle reached Fuzhou, two days had passed. Sun Yu stopped moving and he had to wait for news to come from Lin Zhaoqing in She County. Otherwise, he would have been in vain if he went alone. Moreover, if the whole country of Nanyue came to attack, he would not be able to bear it.

Lin Zhaoqing was also waiting, waiting for news from the palace that he had no military orders and had no authority to start a war.

The source of the news, the king of the country, Li Yu, was a little later than Sun Yu. The main reason was that Xiao Yi deliberately blocked the information. He wanted to wait for Li Jicao's news to come and make a decision. But he was disappointed, and Li Jicao had no movement.

"Your Majesty, our dynasty is always friendly to Nanyue, and we should not start the war easily." Yan Xu shouted loudly. Why is it going to start a war? It is still with Nanyue. The Song Dynasty is too threatening now, so it should be repaired with Nanyue and fight against the enemy hand in hand.

"Goodness? Yan Xiang's ability to speak lies with his eyes open, he is good." The censor You Jianyan spoke sarcastically without hesitation. He knew the will of the lord, so he naturally had to speak out.

"Sir You, I am just talking about the matter and don't ask for personal attacks." Yan Xu was so angry that he blew his beard. His reputation was not good at the moment, and it was really difficult to get used to the court after being labeled with these messy hats.

"Well, Fuzhou has never stopped. Even the Song Dynasty came out to mediate. Now the King of Han is still in Kaifeng, and Yan Xiang has forgotten?" You Jianyan sneered. Who is not talking about the matter? If it weren't for political affairs, who would have been more talked about here?

"That's all the matter of the loyal and brave army..."

"The Loyal and Brave Army is also the Loyal and Brave Army of our Tang Dynasty. It is also for the sake of the Tang Dynasty to expand territory. Don't be fooled by Yan Xiang!" Xu Xuan couldn't stand it anymore and gave a reminder.

If you continue to say this, Yan Xu may have to speak out without hesitation.

"If the Song Dynasty sent troops, wouldn't our army fight on both sides? How should we resist?" Yan Xu calmed down and continued to dissuade him.

"I'm asking you all to come here to discuss this matter. As for the Song Dynasty, it is now attacking Nan Chu. I should not send troops to the south for a while." Li Yu felt that he had to wait until the Nan Chu was about to be done before he could free up his hands.

Moreover, the previous news said that the Northern Han and Western Shu were also ready to move. If they moved, the Song Dynasty would be even less energy to stare at this side.

"The old minister thinks that Your Majesty's move is to continue the reign of the Tang Dynasty. The ambition of Nanyue will not join hands with us to fight against the Song Dynasty just because we have the intention of cultivating. Since the six prefectures in Jiangbei were lost, Nanyue surrounded us everywhere. Otherwise, how could he have to buy salt at high prices, sell tea and silk at low prices, etc.?" Xu Xuan felt that he should say justice. If the Tang Dynasty wanted to survive, Nanyue would be like a ray of light.

When removing, although the pain is accompanied by risks, if not removing, it will occur sooner or later.

"The old minister also thought that this move was inevitable and that South Vietnam could not share the hardships." You Jianyan followed closely behind. He was a pro-war faction, and he was a god-given opportunity, and there were no more mistakes.

"Jia Aiqing, what do you think?" Li Yu looked at Jia Bin, Minister of War.

"The old minister thinks, Your Majesty, Saint

Ming!" Jia Bin was unwilling to offend Yan Xu, but the current situation was not possible, that was to offend His Majesty, and he could only take the minority of his powers.

"Okay, from now on, we will officially enter the wartime state. Jia Aiqing must not leave behind the allocation of combat readiness materials. Yan Xiang's side, the supply of food, grass, and silver cannot be a problem, otherwise it will be related to the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, and it is difficult to protect them." Li Yu looked at Yan Xu, with a hidden warning.

At present, there is indeed no one more suitable person than Yan Xu to deal with the food and supplies. As long as the people below make some minor stumbling, it is easy for people to fall into trouble.

Now he directly pressed this on Yan Xu. If he didn't want to joke about his wealth and life, he could only do his best to do this.

"Old minister, receive the order!" Yan Xu was shocked and knew what Li Yu's eyes meant.

Generally speaking, for the sake of stability in the court, Li Yu dared not touch him. But if there was a mistake in the military supplies and it led to a defeat or a mutiny, no one could protect him.

If so, Yan Xu must give up this job, but who told him to be the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Revenue is impossible to avoid?

"For the sake of the revival of the Tang Dynasty, I hope you can work together to overcome difficulties together!" Li Yu glanced at the ministers and made great determination for this feat. He would never let anyone lose his mind.

"My minister, follow the order!" All the ministers bowed their heads and answered the orders. As for what they thought in their hearts, no one knew.

On the tenth day of September, the Southern Tang Dynasty sent 200,000 troops, divided into three routes to attack Nanyue. Zheng Yanhua, commander of the Northern Army, led 70,000 troops to attack Suzhou, Lin Zhaoqing, commander of the Central Army, commander of the Central Army, commander of the Southern Army, commander of the Southern Army, Sun Yu, led 50,000 elite troops to Wenzhou, and the world was attracted by it.

Before sending troops, Sun Yu did not wait for the navy ships to come. He could only use baggage to transport strategic materials, and then hired civilians to transport food and grass. After only one day, he arrived at Luoyuan County.

Luoyuan County is the forefront of the South Vietnamese defense loyal and brave army. It is now in a tight defense, with no less than 20,000 troops garrisoning.

General Luo Jixing stood at the top of the city and looked at the Zhongyong Army camp outside the city, frowned. The number of Zhongyong Army sent troops this time exceeded his expectations.

The city walls of Luoyuan County are short and broken and cannot provide sufficient defense.

"Send to the court and ask for reinforcements!" Luo Jixing's current troops were divided into two, half of them stationed in Luoyuan County and half of them stationed in Ningde. If he stationed troops in one place, he would be afraid that the other party would attack the rear by detour and cut off his retreat.

At the moment, the loyal and brave army is coming in full force, and the troops in his hands are in short supply.

The loyal and brave army outside the city was not in a hurry to launch an attack, but was assembling large siege equipment. When a siege car two feet higher than the city wall appeared outside the city, Luo Jixing's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot.

This time, Sun Yu prepared sufficient strategic materials. A small city like Luoyuan County also assembled sixteen siege vehicles at one time to attack the city.

In the central army's tent, Sun Yu was leading a group of generals to arrange combat tasks, and the small county town must not be hindered from the attack.

"Tomorrow, the first regiment and the second regiment will be responsible for three siege vehicles, and the other regiments will be responsible for two. Those who go to the city first will be promoted to two levels in a row, and rewarded with a thousand taels of silver." Sun Yu wanted to take down Luoyuan County as soon as possible and put pressure on the Nanyue court, forcing them to reinforce.
