The Summoning of the Troubled Times at the End of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 343 Jiangdong tiger, Li Zitong died
In the end, relying on Xu Da's excellent overall planning ability, he successfully withstood the strong offensive of the Taiping Army.

Moreover, the most noteworthy point is that a bad news came from the Jiangnan Army.

That was Li Zitong who was seriously injured and died suddenly!

What the military doctor detected was that Li Zitong's arrow wound was too deep, which led to the failure to treat him in time.

In the end, he lost too much blood and died!
However, the top general in the army had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, as if he was happy for Li Zitong to die.

This will be Tang He, the founding general of the early Ming Dynasty who was born with Zhu Yuanzhang. His implanted identity is Zhu Yuanzhang's childhood friend.

That's why Zhu Yuanzhang handed over such secret matters to Tang He.

Therefore, the death of Li Zitong is inseparable from Tang He.

After getting rid of the Taiping Army's attack, Xu Da personally led the army and fought and retreated, dealing with Shi Dakai.

However, although the number of soldiers used by Xu Da's troops is far less than that of Shi Dakai.

However, Shi Dakai had no choice but to confront him all the way.

Finally, after entering the territory of Xuancheng (Xuancheng County was written as Yicheng County earlier, and changed from here).

Shi Daxin's confidant army has just put down Lin Shihong's troops, which is the strength of South Vietnam.

The rule in the rear is still unstable for the time being, and the conditions for sending troops to the Northern Expedition are not met immediately.

Therefore, after some contemplation, Shi Dakai led the army back to the rear and stood firm.

I am going to wait until the various places are stabilized before launching the Northern Expedition.

As for Chen Youliang, Shi Dakai appointed the commander of the headquarters to station troops in Nanchang.

Nanchang is located on the east bank of the Ganshui River, and its geographical location is very important.

It can not only overlook Yuzhang and Jiujiang counties, but also defend Poyang, Suian and other counties.

And it can also directly lead the army up from Poyang Lake and Pengze Lake, threatening the Jianghuai area.

Therefore, Shi Dakai's strategic conception is not weak.

Garrisoning troops in Nanchang can not only threaten the intention of Qi State's territory, but also play a role in defending its own territory.

…………

Xuancheng County, Xuancheng
At this time, a bloody battle is erupting here.

It was Sun Jian who led the army westward and attacked Zhu Yuanzhang's troops.

It is only said that Zhu Yuanzhang led the army out of the city to fight against him because of his superiority in military strength.

However, the battle situation is not optimistic, and the key reason lies in Sun Jian.

Sun Jian's bravery was beyond imagination, and he defeated all the generals in Zhu Yuanzhang's army in a row.

Relying on his own bravery, his own troops, who were already at a disadvantage, were evenly matched with the Jiangnan Army!

Not only that, in the subsequent battles, Sun Jian took the lead and led the army to defeat the Jiangnan Army one after another.

For a while, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "It really deserves to be called the 'Jiangdong' tiger!"

"If this person is not eliminated, there will be endless troubles in the future!"

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who founded the Ming Dynasty, praised Sun Jian so much.

It can be seen from this that Sun Jian's bravery is indeed hard to match!

However, just because Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have a summoning stone, if Gao Qi were here, he would definitely know the skills that Sun Jian possessed.

Sun Jian possesses the skill of 'expulsion', as long as he personally leads the army against the enemy, his own bravery will become more and more valiant.

The sergeants under his command were affected by it, and their combat effectiveness was greatly increased, reaching the level of elites in all battles.

As we all know, the northerners are stronger than the southerners in the land battles of all dynasties.

But at the end of the Han Dynasty, when the princes challenged Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian led the Changsha Army under his command and defeated Dong Zhuo one after another.

Even Hu Zhen, the veteran general under his command, and even Lu Bu, the fierce general, were defeated by him and fled!
It can be seen that Sun Jian's bravery is worthy of the name.

Therefore, after several battles, Zhu Yuanzhang decisively withdrew his troops to the city and relied on the strong city to hold on.

Although fighting with Sun Jian in the field would not hurt his muscles and bones, it was hindered by Sun Jian's brave and superior strength.

How could Zhu Yuanzhang, who has always been careful and careful, lose his troops in vain.

It is only said that Xuancheng was originally the prefecture of Xuancheng, and its city was originally high and thick.

In addition, Xuancheng is backed by Danyang County, which is an important buffer zone on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Therefore, after the Jiangnan Army occupied it, it strengthened its city defense.

Today's Xuancheng, its city defense can be said to be impeccable and watertight!
But even this kind of city defense, under the command of Sun Jian to attack the city, gradually showed flaws.

It should be noted that this is a tough battle, and the Jiangnan Army has more troops than the Wu Army, and its combat effectiveness is even more elite soldiers who have experienced dozens of battles.

It was far from being comparable to the mob, but even so, Sun Jian still fought against the Jiangnan Army extremely passively.

At this time, not only Zhu Yuanzhang was touched, but even all the civil and military personnel under his command trembled.

However, the shock was short-lived, and then Zhu Yuanzhang became more determined to get rid of Sun Jian.

…………

It is only said that when the two armies were at a stalemate, news of the battle in the direction of Xin'an came.

South Vietnam officially declared its demise, and Lin Shihong, the king of South Vietnam, was also escorted to Yuhang.

In the end, the heavenly king Hong Xiuquan ordered Lin Shihong to be executed formally in Qiantang.

Followed by the news came the Jiangnan Army who went to support, and its battle report showed that Fengming King Li Zitong was hit by an arrow.

Due to unfavorable treatment, it is reported that he lost too much blood and died.

Subsequently, Xu Da also led the "defeated army" to Xuancheng and successfully joined Zhu Yuanzhang.

For a while, Zhu Yuanzhang was very excited when he heard that Li Zitong was dead.

After all, in his army, the one whose prestige could really threaten him is dead.

For several years, whether in the army or in the court, Zhu Yuanzhang has secretly planted his cronies.

After several years of development, in fact Li Zitong is just a king in name only.

The reason why he didn't do it for a long time is just that Zhu Yuanzhang was concerned about his reputation and didn't find a suitable opportunity!
Although Li Zitong's death was of great benefit to Zhu Yuanzhang, he even secretly rejoiced.

However, as his courtier, he still has to do superficial work.

Therefore, after sending his body to the city, everyone saw it with their own eyes and was convinced.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately put on a look of compassion, and took the lead in wearing mourning robes and mourning clothes.

Subsequently, a mourning hall was set up for him and a grand funeral was held.

Of course, this important news couldn't be hidden from Wu Jun's scouts.

After a while, Wu Jun's scouts returned to the big tent and reported the cause and effect to Sun Jian.

After hearing this, Sun Jian immediately jumped up, extremely excited!
Because, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Zitong's defeat was exactly the time when the Jiangnan army had no leader and the morale of the army was low.

That's why Sun Jian was so excited. As long as he operates properly, it is entirely possible to defeat the Jiangnan Army in one battle.

However, his strategist Zhao Zhao reminded at the right time: "My lord, Zhao observed that Zhu Yuanzhang is a hero."

"There are many schemes and tricks in his chest, it is better to be careful, and the scouts should continue to inquire."

"After seeing Li Zitong's dead body, I'm making a decision!"

In the end, Sun Jian couldn't hold back Zhang Zhao's stubbornness, and temporarily extinguished the fire of fanaticism in his chest.

Immediately ordered the scouts to sneak into the city to inquire about the news.
