Zhang Zhaoda stood on the city wall and watched Xiao Moha lead more than 4,000 elite troops away.

It sounds nice, but when he actually sent troops, he still didn't dare to give him too many people, and only sent more than 4,000 people. Most of the officers in these more than 4,000 people were from Zhang Zhaoda's old subordinates, which was obvious that they were worried.

Zhang Zhaoda looked into the distance quietly with a solemn expression.

His staff stood aside, looking quite anxious.

"General, you must write a letter to Your Majesty again. Your situation cannot be delayed."

"Besides, in the battle between Han and Zhou, Zhou State suffered such a blow. It is definitely not a match for Han State. We must not wait and see, we must intervene!"

"But in this case..."

The staff was so anxious that they were all around.

Zhang Zhaoda's physical condition is getting worse every day.

The military doctors expressed helplessness about his situation and believed that they had to return to Jiankang and found a famous doctor to check it out.

Zhang Zhaoda said tremblingly, "I have written to His Majesty again to let him know..."

"Don't worry."

"But I don't know how else I can intervene in this battle between Han and Zhou."

"Our army in Lianghuai cannot attack Henan in the Han Dynasty. Because of Huang and Chunyu, the morale of the army here is low, and fighting against the Han people on land is very unfavorable for us."

"If you want to intervene, you can only fight in the south and in the familiar environment."

"But our troops are insufficient. The brothers Gao Changgong and Gao Yanzong are one in the northeast of ours and the other in the southwest of ours."

"These two people are not allowed to stop Zhang Zhiyong! His brother Gao Changgong is called a 100,000 army, but there are not 50,000, and there are definitely 30,000 to 40,000. Gao Changgong defeated Zhou Kingdom many times in the north, called the Five Tigers of Han Kingdom, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers. His younger brother Gao Yanzong has not had many troops under the devil, but when he rushed to Yuwen Yong's army, no one in the city knew his bravery? Besides, Chunyuliang was around him. If he led Chunyuliang to come, our lieutenant general Tu would have no morale when he saw them..."

"In the current situation, even if we want to intervene, we cannot do it. The enemy will attack the three groups, mainly the army commanded by Liu Taozi himself, and the other two groups are supplemented. If we force it too hard, it is not impossible for Gao Changgong to turn his head to attack us. If by that time, can we stop the two brothers?"

The staff member looked worried, "Why should General Xiao Moha lead his troops to the war...::

"Working with all your strength... Things in the world change, and there may be a turning point."

Han, Yiyang County.

In the official office, the generals sat in two rows.

Chunyu Liang was in the list, but Gao Yanzong was sitting in the upper position. He held a document in his hand and showed it to everyone as if showing off.

"My brother is here!"

"Brother leads a hundred thousand troops to win Xinling!"

"He asked me to lead someone to stare at Chen Bing from Nanyang to Jiangling to prevent these bad things from happening!"

"These southerners have always been...

Gao Yanzong was about to insult him, but suddenly remembered something and changed his words and said, "They are unmoral and capricious! You must not be careful."

The other generals nodded silently at this moment, looking at Chunyu Liang with their eyes. If it weren't for Yu Chunyu Liang's face, they would have jumped up and insulted the Southern people.

Chunyu Liang was a little surprised.

He knew that after Chang'an was defeated, the situation in the world would undergo great changes, but he did not expect that

The change can be so rapid that the Han Kingdom will directly send troops to destroy the Zhou Kingdom. This is to go to the rapid unification.

Although he had not asked about the detailed situation of the battle and did not know much about this expedition, he felt that the Great Zhou was about to end due to the instinctive judgment of a veteran.

If Yuwen Yong was still alive, he could still organize officials from all over the country to fight back, seize the throne and continue to stick to it. This is not a big problem, but if he dies, the situation will be serious. With the current split situation of Zhou State,

Facing the Han country, whose national strength is several times stronger than that of itself, he will basically only be beaten.

Judging from the national strength of each country, it is not about how vast their territory is, but also about whether their territory is good or bad.

Just like Chen State, Chen State has vast land in the south, but the remote states combined,

The population may not be as good as that of Cheng'an County in the Han Dynasty...

As for arable land, the same is true. Not all land can be used for cultivation. Some prefectures and counties look small, but in fact, the grain production may be several times that of some desolate large states or dozens of times.

To use harmony to fight against chaos and to attack the small, Chunyuliang could not see any hope of survival in the Zhou Kingdom.

The only possibility is that the Han army was too arrogant and did not take the enemy seriously at all. They went deep into the hinterland and were defeated once, which might delay it for a while.

Gao Yanzong informed everyone about the matter, and then looked at Chunyu Liang with a smile.

"General Chunyu, you are more familiar with the army in these places. From what you see, how should we be prepared?"

"This matter is very important. My brother is going to win the destruction of the country today. This is the first time he has asked me for me. Whether for public or private, I should do my best. I hope the general will teach me."

Gao Yanzong saluted Chunyu Liang very seriously again.

Chunyuliang hurriedly replied to the gift.

Chunyu Liang was also a general in Chen State. In terms of official positions, he was much higher than Gao Yanzong. After surrendering at this moment, because the war had not ended and the emperor had not rewarded him, he temporarily followed Gao Yanzong. However, Gao Yanzong was very polite to him and there was no point in rudeness.

Chunyu Liang thought for a while, then said, "General should be on guard against Zhang Zhaoda. In my opinion, the best way is to take over Nanyang, Anzhou, Jiangling and other places to prevent future troubles."

"ah??""

Gao Yanzong widened his eyes, and most of the other generals were the same.

Is this defense or attack??

Gao Yanzong hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Can you take it down?"

The Chief Shi, who had been standing beside them, couldn't help it at this moment, and he hurriedly said, "General, General Guard wants us to be on guard against the Chen people..."

Chunyu Liang explained: "If Chen Jun wanted to rescue, his infantry and cavalry did not have to care about it at all, the infantry and cavalry in the city,

Although I have experienced a great war, if I encounter several elite troops from General Guard, I am afraid that all the troops will be wiped out immediately and no one will be spared."

"The only concerns are the navy, and it is the most difficult to guard against the navy. The only way is to turn defense into attack, attack the city, and then occupy the port ferry, so as not to allow the navy to go ashore to replenish supplies, as long as it can occupy Jiangling,

Only then can the Chen army dare not look west, and only then can the general of the guards be able to face the enemy with peace of mind."

"Well said!"

Gao Yanzong agrees very much with this idea. He doesn't like to defend, he likes to attack.

Gao Yanzong asked the other generals to leave temporarily, leaving only Chunyuliang to discuss the matter of sending troops.

"Although the Chen army is weak, it occupies a high wall. Our elite soldiers are not many. Nanyang and Jiangling are all strong cities, how can we conquer them?"

Chunyuliang has been waiting for such a day long.

He took a deep breath and began his explanation excitedly.

"The general didn't know anything. When he was attacking Huajiao, the commander of the Chen army, Xu Du, was defeated by the Zhou people, and then defeated Nanyang. He was defeated by Yuwen Yong. The military was extremely exhausted. Therefore, the Chen Lord temporarily sent new soldiers from both Huai Rivers to fight in Jiangling."

"Among the more than 30,000 soldiers in Jingbei, more than half are soldiers from both Huaihei."

"These people were recruited just now and did not recognize much from Chen State. After Zhang Zhao arrived, because most of the generals in the army had old age with me, they dared not use them. They used their confidants to control these soldiers. His confidants were all from Jiangdong and were not familiar with people from Jiangbei."

"As long as the general leads the elite troops out of the city, he will ask the soldiers to return to the Han Dynasty in the words of Jiangbei, and then ask me to come forward. The soldiers in the city will have no intention of fighting, and may even let them kill the generals and open the city...\n."

"The only thing to be wary of is Jiangling. However, Jiangling City was greatly damaged during the previous war, and the city wall was broken. I have many old friends in the city. If the general goes, they can help them to act as internal support and open the city gate from inside."

Hearing Chunyu Liang's words, Gao Yanzong's eyes lit up instantly.

"Can you really open the city gate?"

"I heard that Zhang Zhaoda's southern country can be good at appeaseing his subordinates. Can those people you left behind be trusted by him?"

"I have old friends with many people in private, and outsiders don't know."

"good!"

Gao Yanzong stood up and began to walk in the courtyard. If he followed Chunyuliang's statement, then Jingbei would have been sent to him for nothing and allowed him to take it.

At present, Han and Chen have broken up their alliance, and there is no such thing as fighting or not.

The more Gao Yanzong thought about it, the more excited he became. He suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Chunyuliang's hand. His eyes were particularly bright.

"If you can win Jingbei, you will be the first merit!! I will ask my brother to express this merit with me!"

Chunyu Liang also took the opportunity to seize Gao Yanzong's hand, "I will definitely take down Jingbei with the general and will not ruin the great event of destroying Zhou!"

The two of them agreed to send troops, and then began to rectify the army.

Logically speaking, Gao Yanzong did not have the power to send troops independently.

Although he was a general with a heavy title, he had to reach the level of the Four Tribunals and the general was in charge of the party to have the power to send troops independently. In the south, Wang Lin could send troops directly without waiting for the temple order. This was his own power. However, he had to report the memorial and he had to bear the consequences if there were any consequences.

However, Gao Yanzong sent troops under the order of General Guard.

As a third-level general, General Wei is one of the commanders of the attack on Zhou State today. He is qualified to mobilize the rest of the army, not because of brotherhood, but because of superiors and subordinates.

Even if he gives Yao Xiong the order now, Yao Xiong has to run over obediently.

Gao Changgong's military order asked Gao Yanzong to send troops to restrain the Chen people.

The scope of this military order is relatively large. What is the restraint? Anyway, siege is also considered restraint?

Three days later, Gao Yanzong left the city with his troops from his headquarters and directly rushed to Nanyang next door.
