Chapter 604 Surrounded on All Sides

Two days later, Su Chen came to the General's Mansion, and from today he began to act as the commander. The governor Wang Yuechao, the prefect and others all went to the General's Mansion and waited for the order. The imperial edicts and imperial orders sent from Jinling were also sent, and Su Chen was enthroned.

, justified!

Su Chen sat in the position of the chief general. Although he was young, he did not seem cramped after having experience in leading the army.

He listened carefully to reports from all parties, including the city's food storage, weapons and armor, the reserve of arrows, the daily deaths of wounded people, the status of the people in the city, etc. Su Chen listened to detailed descriptions of these situations to fully understand the situation.

Beside him, Ye Chen and the other two served as chief secretary and clerk, and were all assigned important civil positions, and they all became Su Chen's confidants.

As for generals, he promoted Liu Yan, Ma Chengxin, Ma Chengjun, Jing Hong and others, and there were also some direct troops in Runzhou military camp.

In addition, Ma Xiong, Wang Yuchuan, Zhang Qiao, Zhao Sheng and others were also very grateful to Su Chen for rescuing General Lu and were willing to obey the order.

"Okay, all the generals will continue to perform their duties and respond to the attacks of the Wu Yue soldiers at any time!"

After hearing the report, Su Chen gave a few more words, then went to the wounded barracks, visited the wounded, and checked Lu Jiang's clinical reaction after the operation.

At this time, Lu Jiang was still in a semi-coma, her fever had not subsided, and she obviously felt hot.

This is after surgery, and after being poisoned, some inflammation will remain in the body, which is inevitable.

Fortunately, Lu Jiang is practicing martial arts, has a strong body, and various physical qualities are far beyond what ordinary people can compare to.

Now it depends on whether Lu Jiang can fight inflammation? As long as it can reduce the fever, Lu Jiang's body inflammation and toxins can be eliminated.

Therefore, except for preparing antipyretics and anti-inflammatory soup for him, Su Chen could only rely on his own will.

In the next two days, Wu Yue's troops did not continue to attack the city because of their great damage. This gave Runzhou a buffer time and reorganized the team. After all, all soldiers were injured and needed to reorganize and reorganize the team.

Moreover, Su Chen felt that his troops were insufficient and planned to recruit a group of new troops in the city, so he sent people to the streets and alleys of Runzhou City to post notices, recruit new soldiers, and then form new troops to speed up.

Training, such as combat skills, orders, and combat formations.

In addition, in terms of scout spies, Su Chen also sent a spy department and a scout camp to investigate the suspicious people in the city, check the household registration and check it from door to door to avoid spies infiltrating. Of course, this is a long-term job and it is difficult to uproot the roots.

After all, the intelligence networks of various countries have secret wars every year to carry out infiltration and reverse infiltration. It is not easy to find out all the You Xiao and spies from Wu Yue in a short time.

Open and secret battles are in progress, and the entire city and outside of Runzhou are battlefields

This brief tranquility was interrupted five days later because the Wu Yue Kingdom had increased its troops.

There were 40,000 to 50,000 troops from Yuhang, and sent troops over and finally arrived at the front line outside Runzhou City.

Now the Wu and Yue army had enough troops, so Shen Chengli ordered the division of troops to trap Runzhou City, and set up roadblocks and trenches, with the purpose of surrounding each other and causing huge psychological pressure to Runzhou.

From today on, it will be difficult for scouts and patrolers outside to enter Runzhou City freely.

It became difficult for the people in Runzhou City to escape from the city, because they did not know whether the Wu Yue soldiers outside the city would harm the people who left the city.

After the news of the army besieging Runzhou, many people began to panic and frantically purchase supplies, but some important supplies, such as grain, salt, beef and mutton, have been controlled by the government and will not be sold easily.

Each household applies for grain coupons according to their household registration, and only by grain coupons are eligible to purchase grain, so as to avoid some people raising prices or hoarding food and grass.

However, the military report made it clear that the next time the granary in the city would be used as military rations, and the people would prepare a year's food ration to survive and die with Runzhou City.

The news spread, which made many wealthy families in the city feel worried.

They have no confidence in whether Runzhou City can be defended, but because the heads of the seven major families have visited Su Chen before, they have expressed their support for Su Chen to guard the city in advance. They have not raised any trouble at this time and have helped the prefect to appease the people.

Reduce the pressure on Su Chen to govern the people and manage the city.

The Duke of Ning Guo came to find Su Chen once and told him that kindness would not command troops, and would not be kings, so that he could no longer be a woman like Lu Jiang and be betrayed Wu Yue's treacherous plan.

Su Chen nodded and said, "Don't worry, Duke, I know that I will never give Wu Yue people a chance to succeed in their tricks, and they will definitely not be held by them."

Prince Ning Guo showed a look of praise and said, "It is necessary for my Xu family to work hard. Although I have accumulated some food and supplies over the years, and at the critical moment, I can also take it out and provide free funding to the soldiers guarding the city.



"It's great. When I need it, I won't be polite to the national minister."

"Well, defending Runzhou means protecting everyone's wealth and life. Of course, I must strongly support you!" Duke Ning Guo was very open-minded and fully supported Su Chen and the defending army.

This time, the Wu Yue Kingdom almost came out in full swing and headed all the main army north. It seemed that it was a must-have for Runzhou City, and he did not hesitate to bet on the national destiny.

Once these 100,000 elite soldiers were buried in Runzhou, the main force of Wu Yue Kingdom was gone, leaving only the local guards, the coastal defense forces, and the imperial guards in the capital, which would not exceed 50,000.

It's still scattered everywhere.

So at this time, the Wu Yue Kingdom was already empty in its military strength, but the Wu Yue Kingdom was not afraid because, with the guarantee of the Northern Song Dynasty, no one rushed to use troops to Wu Yue at this time. Besides the Tang Kingdom, the surrounding princes were able to attack Wu Yue.

The only regime is Southern Han.

There is another force, which is Chen Hongjin, who was separating Quanzhou and Zhangzhou. There were only 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers there, so he did not dare to attack Qiantang of Wuyue.

Therefore, this time, the Wu Yue army will fight to the death with the Tang army in Runzhou City, vowing to take Runzhou, and then send troops to Jinling City. Maybe they can enter Jinling earlier. In addition to avenging the Tang Dynasty for generations, they can also divide the Jinling City.

Many treasures and wealth, beauties, slaves, etc., are the small abacus of Wu Yue.

After all, on the western front, the Song army led by Cao Bin were all in Caishiji and Chizhou, and were competing with Lin Renzhao's 150,000 troops. Both sides were evenly matched. Although the Song army was coming in a fierce manner and had a little strategy, they had already taken over a river.

city.

However, Lin Renzhao took every step, guarded the enemy's strength, and relied on the power of the navy to block the Song army's crossing the river, which temporarily left Cao Bin helpless, and the two sides fell into a fierce battle.

Next, it depends on who can come up with new strategies or grasp the opponent's weaknesses before crushing the opponent.

Northern generals such as Cao Bin and Pan Mei felt a little bit like a tiger eating a hedgehog and had no idea of ​​getting a mouthful when facing Lin Renzhao.

Therefore, the eastern front became increasingly important.

Su Chen also knew that he had no historical trend to rely on at the moment. Because the trajectory changed, what he could do was to respond to external changes with the unchanging, respond carefully, personally join the ancient war, and be the leader of the three armies.
