Chapter 1560 : God Capital Luoyang

"Our Jinling army has broken Shandong and is rushing to Henan. As soldiers who are escorting food and grass, we are responsible for the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line. We cannot afford to delay such a major event, so we set off to Henan immediately, beat the drums - reorganize the troops -?"

amp;nbsp;amp;nbsp;amp;nbsp;"Play the drum!"

"Dong~Dong~!"

The loud drums quickly cut through the night sky, breaking the silence of the night, alarming the sleeping beasts in the forest, and the perching birds flapping their wings out, and there was a sound of terrifying death.

Following the shouts of 30,000 soldiers, the sound of trumpets, the neighing of war horses, the scolding of soldiers, the sound of chariots starting, the sound of swords and guns being sheathed, and the sound of soldiers running, dozens of sounds suddenly trembled slightly, as if they were about to collapse at any time.

Then, everyone began to report the numbers, and the sounds quickly went from north to south, and the sounds of shouting continued, and the sounds of shouting were endless.

Thirty thousand soldiers gathered in the small valley. Xiao Yun, who was standing on the small platform on the hill, looked down and looked dark. He was full of people, tens of thousands of eyes, thousands of big swords, spears, and feather arrows all pointed at Xiao Yun, and the formation was indescribable.

Xiao Yun swallowed his saliva and cursed in his heart: "Damn it, you're not scared to death. Fortunately, I'm brave!"

At this time, there was another drum sound. After the drum sound, the small valley completely returned to its silence. Thirty thousand soldiers, all of them looked solemn, with swords, guns, swords and halberds, and cold light flashed. In front was the big sword camp, in the middle were archers, crossbows and musketeers, thousands of people. The hundreds of musketeers were carrying musketeers on their shoulders, as if they were ready to kill the dead soldiers at any time, and they felt like they were dying and killing.

Finally there were cavalrymen, more than 10,000 people, each wearing armor and holding a full moon scimitar. Under the night, the scimitar emitted a faint cold light, which was daunting. There was a total of 30,000 people. After the last drum sound, there was no sound. Even the war horse was silent, as if it had not breathed.

Xiao Yun nodded with great satisfaction, then shouted sternly: "Pour wine!"

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" Hundreds of wine jars were broken, and hundreds of soldiers carried the wine jars and poured wine back and forth.

The 30,000 porcelain bowls quickly filled with pure bamboo leaves, and the faint fragrance of wine quickly spread under the night.

"Drink!" Xiao Yun said a bad order, raised his head and saw the bottom of the wine, and then suddenly smashed the porcelain bowl into the ground.

"Do!Do!Do!"

Tens of thousands of porcelain bowls were smashed to the ground, and the sound of porcelain being smashed was endless in the small valley.

"Very good!" Xiao Yun touched the Jiuze on his mouth and said, "I didn't say much nonsense, only one sentence. Before the three armies moved, food and grass would come first. Can our Jinling army conquer Henan and recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun? It's today. I will entrust all this to you here!"

"Recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!" Thirty thousand soldiers shouted in unison, and the sound was as loud as thunder.

Xiao Yun nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and nodded to Geng Bingwen. Geng Bingwen understood and walked up the hill. Two murderous eyes quickly swept the team, followed by a long sword in his hand, and led a long rainbow into the night sky, shouting: "Set out-?"

Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!

The war drum sounded again, and the 30,000 soldiers who heard the drums moved quickly. The cavalry walked forward, followed by archers, musketeers, powerful crossbowmen, and then food and grass. Finally, the big sword camp and the long spear camp. The army was like a long snake, rushing to Henan in the darkness of the night.

Luoyang City is located north of Luoshui, which is called "Yang", so it is called Luoyang, also known as Luoyi, Luoyang, and Shendu. The mountains and rivers in the territory are crisscrossing, the Qinling Mountains in the west, the Songyue in the east, and the Taihang Mountains in the north, and the Yellow River is also based on the danger of the Yellow River. Looking at Funiu Mountain in the south, there has been a saying since ancient times that "the eight gates are surrounded by mountains on all sides and the five rivers surround Luocheng". Therefore, it is called "the rivers and mountains are arched and the shape is better than the world", and "the world is full-fledged in the ten provinces".

After a few days of rapid march, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun's army finally felt that Luoyang, Henan was in the morning. Since the fourth day of November, the division went to Xia Pi, and began to divide the troops: Zhang Xingzu led Xuanwu and other guards from Xuzhou to the north to capture Jining and Dongping; Xu Da and the deputy general of the expedition to the east led the main force to attack Yidu in the north. On the 12th, Wang Yi, Wang Xin and his son surrendered and rebelled again. Xu Da led his troops to conquer Yizhou and killed Wang Xuan, nearby Yizhou, Juzhou, Haizhou, Shuyang, Rizhao, Ganyu and other prefectures and counties all surrendered. He ordered Pingzhang Han Zheng to guard the key to the Yellow River, block the enemy's reinforcements, and led a large army to attack Yidu. On the 29th, the Yuan Yidu guard Puyan Buhua died in battle, and Yidu was defeated. Xu Da took advantage of the victory to capture Shouguang, Linzi, Changle, Gaoyuan and other counties. At the same time, Zhang Xing's army in the west also won consecutive victories.

On the fifth day of the 12th month, he advanced to Dongping. Ma De, Yuan Pingzhang, abandoned the city and fled. Officials in Dong'a, Anshan and other places surrendered one after another, and more than 50,000 soldiers were captured. On the eighth day, he advanced to Jining. Chen Bingzhi, the Yuan garrison general, fled without fighting, and Jining was defeated. After a short rest on the eastern road, Xu Da's army advanced to Jinan on Yidu on the seventh day of the 12th month. Zhang Hulintai, Zhan Tong and Tuo fled because of Timur's lead. Jinan was defeated without fighting, and more than 3,000 officers and soldiers and more than 500 horses. On the 26th day, he successively captured Dengzhou, Laiyang and other prefectures and counties.

When Chang Yuchun led his army to conquer Dongchang, all the officials of Chiping and other counties surrendered. On the 25th, Xu Da led his army to pacify Le'an again. At this point, Shandong was basically pacified. In this battle, more than 30,000 soldiers, more than 10,000 horses, more than 600,000 stones of grain, more than 50,000 salt, and more than 80,000 silk. With these food and grass, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun led a large army to attack Luoyang.

Once Luoyang is broken, it is not difficult for Henan to calm down. Once Henan is broken, it is almost time to attack most of the Tartars. Thinking of this, Xu Da felt an indescribable joy in his heart. He thought that Shandong was the gateway of the Tartars and had to go through a war at least, but he did not know that the entire Shandong was captured in just a few dozen days. This result was beyond the expectations of the public. The 250,000 army was unscathed and the people were very angry. He believed that as long as this matter was maintained, it would not be difficult to capture Henan.

Dadada-dadada-?

A sound of horse hooves came quickly in front of him, and he saw the rolling yellow dust from a distance. The two of them kept waving their whips on the horse's back, as if there was a big matter of 100,000 urgent matters. In the rolling yellow dust, they soon saw the figures of the two. When they saw the army ahead, they were overjoyed. The leader held the reins of the horse and rushed straight towards Xu Da. Chang Yuchun came, and the guards beside them immediately stepped forward to be on guard.

Xu Da waved his hand and said that it was nothing serious, because he had already seen that the man in the leader was wearing Jinling clothes.
