Chapter 437 Eight ways to destroy Chen
Chapter 430 Seven Ways to Destroy Chen

The battle to destroy Chen.

As easy as imagined.

Especially with the participation of Qianjimen, the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty seemed to have an extra eye and became foresight.

Before attacking Chen, Li Yan, the governor of Jiezhou in the Sui Dynasty, built "Wuya" (a large warship equipped with a pole) and "Huanglong" in Xiangzhou Road and Yang Su in Badong County to strengthen the navy.

Deliberately floating shipbuilding waste in the river to deter Chen Bing.

He Ruobi sold the old horses, bought a large number of old ships, hid them, and bought fifty or sixty old ships and moored them in the small river, making the Chen army think that the Sui army had no warships.

Then according to the previous offensive strategy, the soldiers who changed the defense were gathered in Guangling many times, the banners were spread, the camps were everywhere, and the soldiers were shot and hunted along the river, and the troops and horses were noisy, so as to confuse the Chen army and make them unguarded.

In March of the eighth year of Emperor Kaihuang, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty issued an imperial edict, enumerating the crimes of Empress Chen and sending a seal of 30 crimes against him, and distributed [-] copies of the edict in Jiangnan to win the hearts of the people.

In October, the Huainan Province was set up in Shouchun. Yang Guang, the king of Jin, was appointed as the minister to coordinate the troops from all walks of life.

The so-called eight ways to destroy Chen.

These eight routes of soldiers and horses are the three routes under the command of Marshal Qin Yang Jun. The first route is that he personally led the navy and army from Xiangyang to Tun Hankou to prevent the Chen army in the middle from supporting Jiankang, the capital of the Chen Dynasty in the downstream;

The second route is Marching Marshal Qinghe Gong Yang Su led the boat division out of Yong'an to the east;
The third route was Liu Renen, the governor of Jingzhou, who went out of Jiangling to make peace with Yang Su, and finally arrived in Hankou to make peace with Yang Junjun.

Yang Su and Liu Ren'en's army were responsible for driving the Chen army in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River to Hankou to encircle and annihilate them.

Marching Marshal Yang Guang commanded the lower five routes. He led Han Qinhu and He Ruobi to specialize in Jiankang, and ordered Wang Shiji and Yan Rong to attack Jiangxi and Sanwu as the left and right wings.

On the first route, Yang Guang led the army out of Liuhe; on the second route, Han Qinhu, the general manager of Luzhou, left Lujiang; on the third route, He Ruobi, the general manager of Wuzhou, left Guangling.

In the fourth route, Qizhou Inspector Wang Shiji led a boat division out of Qichun to attack Jiujiang to cover Yang Guang's main force.

Yan Rong, the general manager of the fifth route Qingzhou, led a boat division out of the East China Sea, detoured along the coast and went south into Taihu Lake to surprise Wu County, and went deep into Sanwu to support Yang Guang's main force.

This is the general goal of the Eight Routes to destroy Chen.

Before the Sui court marched, they detained Chen envoys and cut off contacts to keep military secrets.And sent a large number of spies to sneak into Chenjing to carry out sabotage and disruption activities.

Chen Houzhu was licentious and extravagant, politically corrupt, did not understand military affairs, and did not accept the advice of his generals. He relied on "the natural moat of the Yangtze River" and neglected defense.For the celebration of the Yuanhui, the two sons who guarded Jiangzhou and South Xuzhou, the important towns of Yuanjiang, were ordered to lead their warships back to Jiankang, which made Jiang's defense even weaker.

Yang Su seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and attacked decisively.

Leading the navy out of Badong, marching eastward along the Three Gorges, Liu Renen, the governor of Jingzhou, marched westward from Jiangling, the two armies cooperated, using both water and land, to attack and occupy Langweitan, defeating Chen's guard General Qi Xin; Three iron locks across the river blocked the Sui army from going east out of the Three Gorges.

Yang Su and Liu Renen led the land and water coalition forces to attack until they defeated Chen Jun in the first month of the ninth year of Kaihuang and occupied the mouth of Xiling Gorge.

The governor of Chen Jingzhou, Chen Huiji, stationed at the Public Security Bureau. Seeing that the situation was over, he led an army of [-] troops and more than a thousand boats and sailed eastward along the river in an attempt to help Jiankang, but he and Zhou Luohou were blocked by Yang Junjun to the west of Hankou. Chen Jun was unable to rescue Jiankang in the end. .

Yang Su followed with the main force and went east along the river to join Yang Junjun in Hankou. After this meeting, he received the first good news from Ying Quan.

Chen Shushen, Yueyang King of Chen State, led [-] Chen soldiers to surrender, and presented a thousand orders, telling Yang Su that he had already taken refuge in Yingquan.

The middle reaches of the Yangtze River in Chen State fell.

Chen Shushen told Yang Su that there are still two insiders he knows in Chen Guo, namely Shi Wenqing and Shen Keqing who are in charge of Chen Guo's confidential documents. If there is no accident, the news of the fall of the Yangtze River may still be unknown in Jiankang City .

In the ninth year of Emperor Kaihuang, on the first day of the first lunar month, the Sui army in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River took Chen Huan to celebrate Yuanhui and crossed the river in different ways.

He Ruobi's army went out of Guangling to cross south, Han Qinhu's army went out of Lujiang River and crossed the Hengjiang Estuary at night, raiding and occupying quarrying, Jin Wang Yang Guang's army went out of Liuhe and entered Taoye Mountain.

On the fourth day of the lunar new year, Chen Shubao realized that the situation was unfavorable, so he issued an order to command Chen Jun to resist the enemy.He ordered General Hussars Xiao Mohe, General Fan Yi of the Guard, and Lu Guangda, the leader of the Central Army, to be the governors; he also sent Fan Meng, the governor of Nanyu Prefecture, to lead the water army to defend Baixia (to resist the Sui army in Liuhe; he used Sanqi to serve Gao Wenzuo led his troops to guard Nanyu Prefecture.

After breaking through the defense line of the Yangtze River, the Sui army advanced actively. On the sixth day of the lunar new year, He Ruobi's army captured Jingkou and captured Huang Ke, the governor of Xuzhou in the south.The more than [-] people captured were given preferential treatment and released.

Then He Ruobi marched into Tunqu'a with a part of his army to prevent reinforcements from the Wu and Chen troops, and led his main force to advance westward; Han Qinhu's army captured Gushu on the seventh day of the lunar month, and marched eastward along the river. Gao Wenzuo's army was defeated and retreated to Jiankang.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, He Ruobi entered Baitugang, south of Tunzhong Mountain; Han Qinhu and Du Yanjun, who were crossing the river from Nanling, met in Xinlin;

After Yuwen Shujun defeated Chen Jun in Baixia, he occupied Stone City.

The Sui army occupied the outer cities of Jiankang and completely surrounded the capital of Chen in the Southern Dynasty.

In order to cooperate with the main offensive of the Sui army, Wang Shiji's army also successfully captured Qikou from Qichun, defeated Chen Jiangji, and approached Poyang Lake in Jiangxi; Yanrong Navy also went south from the Shandong coast to occupy the Sanwu area.

The army of the Sui Dynasty had completely surrounded Jiankang. Although Jiankang still had [-] soldiers, they fell into the hands of Chen Houzhu of a different military, and it became a complete display.

Then Chen Shushen led troops to swindle open the gate of the city, and Yang Guangda waved the whole army to press on, and Jiankang City was broken.

Shi Wenqing and Shen Keqing, who helped each other secretly, disappeared after the city was destroyed.

"Wen Qing and Ke Qing are back." Inside the gate of Qianji Gate, the boy guarding the gate immediately shouted loudly when he saw the two slowly going up the hill.

"Mrs. Xing'er!" The two of them saw Li Xing'er waiting for them as soon as they entered the mountain gate, they knelt down and said, "Chen died."

"Since Chen is dead, can't he concentrate on working for my palace?" Li Xing'er smiled lightly, these two were her subordinates.

Under Ying Quan's arrangement, he entered the court of the Chen Kingdom. He originally thought that he was just looking for some convenience, but he didn't expect that he would play such a big role in the battle to destroy Chen.

Jiankang City didn't know that the Yangtze River had completely fallen until the soldiers approached the city.

"It's just the names of the two of us. I'm afraid they can't be used anymore." Shi Wenqing smiled wryly and continued, "Unexpectedly, in the end, there will be an eternal infamy."

"Yes!" Shen Keqing nodded approvingly, and said, "Mrs. Xing'er, I'm afraid we won't be able to take off the hats of courtiers!"
