Chapter 1571: Du Yu's Madness
In this battle, General Gan Ning was killed on the battlefield. After Dong Xi came back, he died of excessive blood loss. Of the 50,000 soldiers, more than 30,000 were lost, and only more than 18,000 came back alive.
When Shi Dakai heard this, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. This battle was a heavy loss. Sun Yue originally had the ability to send troops to resist, but now he can only hide in the city and can no longer go north. Combined with the soldiers and horses originally staying in the city,
Shi Dakai only had less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands.
Xu Da also became famous because of this. The most important thing is that Xu Da no longer needs to bluff. After all, the strength of the two armies is now evenly matched, and Xu Da's confidence is stronger than before.
stone city
This is an ancient city. The whole city is made of piled rocks. The city is high and the walls are thick. There are 20,000 defenders in the city. If you want to capture this city, you will need twice the number of troops.
The guard in the city is Zhu Liangzu. This person is a member of Zhu Yuanzhang's clan. He is loved by Zhu Yuanzhang and his abilities are quite good. Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have placed him in such an important position in Shicheng.
Zhu Liangzu in history served in the Yuan Dynasty for the first half of his life and repeatedly defeated Zhu Yuanzhang. He was later defeated by Zhu Yuanzhang. After Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded him to surrender, he surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang. He accompanied Zhu Yuanzhang in the southern and northern campaigns and participated in the battles to destroy Chen Youliang, Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen, and the Mingxia regime.
After pacifying the Guangdong and Guangxi areas, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty after proclaiming himself emperor! He was canonized as Marquis Yongjia, but this guy wanted to die! He colluded with the local powerful, committed evil, and was eventually killed! It can be said that he has the ability! But he is only suitable for generals, not for officials.
! Therefore, the final fate is to die miserably. Zhu Yuanzhang is another guy who either doesn’t do something or does it absolutely. He deeply understands the principle of cutting the grass but not the root! The spring breeze brings new life, and he even killed his son,
Since then, Zhu Liangzu has become the most powerful person in history. You can say that Zhu Yuanzhang is also very powerful.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Han Xin's 100,000 troops faced each other in the Huaihe River. The two armies were facing each other? Now the weather is getting colder? The morale of the soldiers is not very high. Du Yu's eyes scanned the map in front of him? However, Jiang Song and Huang Feihu gathered around him
, Zhao Hu, Liu Zhi, the four generals! There are also three generals who ran back panting, namely Sun An and Du Bo, and they beat the three generals!"
Sun An and Geng Ying were surrendered generals! But both of them were generals who were good at conquering and fighting? Among them, Du Yu fell in love with Geng Ying, whose archery skills were unparalleled.
Du Yu's love.
In history, the winner was a famous marksman in the Wei State. Unfortunately, Han Yi's method of destroying Wei was too fast. Gongsun Yan wiped out the main force of the Wei State, Prince Han Chen, in one battle! Sun Wu and Sun Wu were reasonable and failed to defeat Wei one after another.
With the last strength of the country, the entire Wei Dynasty was defeated by the combined efforts of the two.
Of course, the main reason for them to submit is that Wu Zetian is in power! What's more, who is the opponent? It is better to submit to Han Yi now than to live under Wu Zetian's rule.
Du Yu looked at the three of them, first looking at Geng Ying and saying: "How is the situation in Shicheng now?"
Geng Ying was seven feet long! His eyes were like fire! His face was like bluestone! He sat cross-legged on the ground, wiped the sweat from his head, and said with a stern expression: "Zhu Liangzu is indeed a general that Zhu Yuanzhang relies on. The soldiers in the stone city change every half a day."
, strict and orderly! The city gates are locked, without Zhu Yuanzhang's order? They don't dare to open the city gates! Now they want to take Shicheng! There is no other way but to attack by force!"
Du Yu stroked his beard, squinted his eyes, held the parchment drawings in front of him with both hands, looked up at the sky in front of him, breathed in hot breath, and watched it turn into water vapor. Du Yu immediately asked: "We
We have enough food and grass! How many days can we last?”
"The food and grass we brought this time can only last half a month! And because we are marching at such a high speed, we can't make a stove! So it's all cold food," Liu Zhi said solemnly, stroking his beard.
"How are the enemy's troops and horses at night?" Du Yu put away the parchment scroll in his hand, stroked his goatee, and said solemnly.
"It's too dark! I can't see clearly! But I only feel that the torches are sparse! There are not many torches on the west wall, and after midnight! There is almost no firelight!" Gengying said with a solemn expression.
"Hahahahahahaha!" Du Yu suddenly stood up and laughed! He patted his thigh vigorously and immediately shouted: "It's really a godsend to me! I will leave a name for the ages! It depends on today!"
"General! The soldiers are not in high spirits right now!" Jiang Song leaned on the tree branch, holding the cold gun on his shoulder, with his hands in his pockets! He said solemnly.
Du Yu looked at the soldiers around him, all of them had earth-colored faces! They were chatting with each other! Apparently their morale was not particularly high.
Du Yu stroked his gray beard and said with a stern expression: "Soldiers, come here!"
The soldiers looked at each other and looked at the old man Du Yu. They all complained secretly. It was really not a good thing to follow the old man Du Yu, because in their opinion, there was no future at all in following Du Yu. How could they be reconciled?
Han Xin's direct descendants are competing with soldiers and horses. They drink wine and eat meat, but they can only eat batter here.
Du Yu looked at the slow figures one by one. Du Yu was not angry and said to the soldiers: "Today Japan will issue a general order! Attack Shicheng! Drink freely for three days! One! Do not commit adultery! Two! Do not kill innocent people indiscriminately.
!Three! Don’t disturb the people!”
"General Du! These are all military regulations! We are already familiar with them! You don't need to remind us all the time!" One of the generals had a scar on his face and a piece of dead grass in his mouth. He picked out his ears and looked indifferent.
road.
Du foresaw it and was not angry. He continued: "All the money and food from the treasury will be distributed to the soldiers! I will not take any money from you!"
"Well!" As soon as Du Yu said this, the lower-ranking soldiers turned to the side and said with embarrassed expressions: "Is what the general said true?"
"No joke!" Du Yu looked at the crowd and shouted suddenly, his voice was like thunder and his eyes were like tigers, which made the soldiers on both sides tremble slightly.
"Oh! Long live the general! The general will win!" The soldiers on both sides were very excited when they heard this, and each one began to cheer.
"General Du!" Liu Zhi looked at Du Yu with an embarrassed look on his face. He immediately pulled the corner of Du Yu's clothes and whispered quickly: "If you secretly distribute money from the treasury without the king's order, you will definitely be punished by the king after you return!"
But Du Yu was also impatient. He rubbed his wrist and said resolutely: "What the king wants is the territory of the south! Not the wealth in front of you! If the king punishes me, I will accept it, Du Yu!"
"But general...!" Liu Zhi was still about to speak.
