The name of Wuchang began at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the beginning of the Three Kingdoms. In order to seize Jingzhou with Liu Bei, Sun Quan moved the capital from Jianye (now Nanjing) to E County in 221 AD and changed its name to "Wuchang", which means "governing the country with martial arts and prosper". In February, a heavy snow fell quietly. After the heavy snow, the entire Wuchang City was covered in silver, making people feel a chill.

The Han Palace was built in the center of Wuchang. This palace was originally the residence of Kuan Sebuhua, the king of Weishun of Tartars. After being named Weishun by Emperor Taiding in the third year of Taiding in the year of Taiding in the year of Taiding, Kuan Sebuhua was ordered to station in Huguang for a long time. In order to facilitate his patrol, he ordered people to build this residence. Later, when Xu Shouhui led the Red Turban Army to attack Wuchang, Kuan Sebuhua was defeated and fled, leaving behind the residence that had just been built. After Chen Youliang killed Xu Shouhui, because of this taboo, the residence was always stranded. Now, in the battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou, Chen Youliang and Jiangzhou area fell under Zhu Yuanzhang as soon as possible. He had no choice but to return to Wuchang and move into this residence.

The entire mansion covers a very wide area, facing north and south, rectangular, covering an area of ​​hundreds of feet. There are three main halls, five back halls, three main gates, three yimen each, and eighteen left and right sides, Yuexixi, Hongfang, Huaao, Medicine Garden, Xuexi, Water Room, Yingwu, Tiger Circle, and Tower Bridge, Longkou, Xichou, Caohu, Ruizhu Cave, and palace people slanting places; they extend and encircle, unevenly cover the sky, Qihua Yao Tree, strange beasts and birds, all of which are all in full swing, and the entire palace is grand in scale and extraordinary momentum.

At this moment, in the palace of the Han Dynasty, a middle-aged man wearing a yellow rolling dragon robe was sitting on the dragon throne. Opposite him was his second son Chen Li, and there were about a dozen palace maids standing beside them. Everyone lowered their heads and lowered their eyes without saying a word. The atmosphere in the entire hall seemed a little depressing.

"Father... I just got a news..." Zhang Shicheng sent his general Lu Zhen, Li Bosheng to lead 100,000 troops, divided into two groups and several months ago to besiege Anfeng City. I heard... "Chen Li said that he looked at Chen Youliang with a slanted look. Seeing his gloomy face, he couldn't help but sigh. Since Longwan defeated and Jiangzhou defeated, Zhang Zhixiong, Li Mingdao and other former generals rebelled against the enemy, his father was depressed, especially when Hu Tingrui led tens of thousands of soldiers in Hongdu to surrender to Zhu Yuanzhang, this news hit Chen Youliang hard.

Hongwu is located at the intersection of Fanyang Lake and Ganjiang River. It has been said since ancient times that "the three rivers are connected and the five lakes are led, and the barbarians and Jing is controlled and Ouyue is led." It has extremely high strategic significance and has always been a place that military strategists must fight for. Once this place is broken, the foundation of Jiangzhou will collapse. This is the great pain in Chen Youliang's heart. After decades of hard work, he lost it once. No matter how strong a person is, he may be depressed.

"What's the current situation?" Chen Youliang, who had been closing his eyes for a long time, said lightly.

"Now Zhang Shicheng's 100,000 troops have besieged Anfeng for several months. "People in the city eat each other, and those who have corpses buried in the ground and rotten, they also dig and eat them. Some people use mud at the bottom of the well as fry them and fry them with people. The King of the Ming Dynasty, Han Lin'er, cried in the city, and Prime Minister Liu Futong sent someone to ask for help from Zhu Yuanzhang...?"

"Please help Zhu Yuanzhang...? How about... Did Zhu Yuanzhang send troops...?" Chen Youliang was already depressed and his will was refreshed at this moment, with his eyes showing his murderous aura.

Chen Li let out a sigh and said to himself: "What Taiwei Zhang said is indeed good. My father will be much better after hearing this news!"

"Listen to the spies' return, Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the hard dissuasion of his adviser Liu Bowen and general Xiao Yun, and insisted on sending troops to rescue Anfeng!"

"Take it seriously..." Chen Youliang's face showed a look of surprise, and his pale handsome face turned red due to his excitement.

Chen Li nodded and said, "It's true that Zhu Yuanzhang and his 100,000 troops were personally led by Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Marshal Zhao Desheng, Deputy Marshal, and Pioneer rushed from Jinling to Anfeng!"

"Haha...haha...? Zhu Yuanzhang... Zhu Yuanzhang... I didn't expect you to be smart for a lifetime and be confused for a while. How could Anfeng save you? Now your Jinling City is empty, it's the time when I, Chen Youliang, are you rushing your troops... Haha... This is a God-given opportunity... a God-given opportunity...?"

"Father..." Chen Li called out softly.

Chen Youliang glanced at him, then nodded and said calmly: "You are here today, I must not just tell my father the news. Okay, don't estimate anything. Just say something boldly, right?"

Chen Li was still hesitant, and Chen Youliang stared at him unhappily: "Say!"

Chen Li was shocked and asked with a thorn in the air, "Did your father be ready to send troops to Yingtian?"

Chen Youliang thought for a while and said, "Zhu Yuanzhang led a 100,000 army to Anfeng, and Jinling must have empty troops. If he does not send troops at this time, when will he wait?"

Chen Li shook his head and said, "I think it's absolutely inappropriate?"

Chen Youliang said, "What's wrong?"

Chen Li recalled Zhang Dingbian's words in his mind, pondered for a while, and then sighed: "Zhu Yuanzhang has always been cautious. Now he dares to send troops to support Anfeng 100,000. He has made arrangements. Besides, I heard that his military advisor Liu Bowen is indeed the talent of Zhuge Kongming. In the battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou, this man made a big deal. Now the news sent by the spy is this man, the person who stayed in Jinling is this man, and there is another man named Xiao Yun, who is chasing him during the battle of Longwan...?"

Chen Youliang's face was gloomy and he glanced at Chen Li and said, "Speak."

Chen Li looked at Chen Youliang's face with some nervousness and saluted: "Yes! This man's martial arts are the only one in the world, and his left sailor has tens of thousands of troops. Once his father attacks the city, the city's defense will be strong, and the soldiers in the city will be united and will definitely fight with their backs. If Zhu Yuanzhang takes the opportunity to kill him back...Father...?"

Chen Youliang looked at him, and asked, "Look at Yilier, what should the father do? Could you give up such a good opportunity?"

Chen Li smiled slightly and said, "This opportunity was given to the father of God, how could you miss it? In the battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou, Zhu Yuanzhang's reputation was greatly shocked, and his strength was no longer Zhu Yuanzhang, who had only 10,000 naval troops at the time. In just two years, Zhu Yuanzhang's naval army has now grown to 100,000 troops, and the power of the dragon ships used is definitely not Ameng, and our soldiers are in a low morale after the Battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou. Moreover, the secret weapons of the father have not been manufactured in large quantities. If they send troops rashly, it is inevitable...?"

Chen Youliang nodded and said, "What Li Er said is very much. My father always thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was not worth worrying. In the battle of Longwan and Jiangzhou, he realized that this person's courage, methods, strategies, and vision were not inferior to him, and even better than his father. This time he dared to come to Anfeng in person, and he must have made arrangements... but such a good opportunity... let it go for nothing... the father is unwilling to accept it...?"

Chen Li's eyes flashed and he said, "Don't worry, Father, this opportunity is given to Father, and you must not miss it!"

Chen Youliang's eyes lit up and he stared at Chen Li and said, "How do you say this?"

Chen Li said: "In my opinion, Zhang Shicheng sent troops to attack Anfeng, but did not attack, so he must have wanted to take the opportunity to occupy Jinling. This man had just escaped from the title of Taiwei of the Tartars and was eager to make achievements to stabilize the morale of the army. Jiangyin, Changshu, and Wuxi were occupied by Zhu Yuanzhang, causing Zhang Shicheng to be forced on the west and north, and to be blocked from the south by Yang Wan of the Yuan army. Therefore, the territory of Jiangnan was shrinking day by day. If the expected one was good, Zhang Shicheng attacked Anfeng this time, and his intention was to take this opportunity to capture Jinling!"

"Li'er's analysis is very reasonable...?" Chen Youliang slapped the dragon case and said, "Since Yingtian cannot attack, where should the father go?"

Chen Li said: "At present, Zhu Yuanzhang is strong, and his father must consume his strength, and then he will promote the country's troops to be the best. My son thought that my father should still take steady steps and take action step by step, and first take Hongdu. Once Hongdu is taken back by my father, my father can do this as the foundation, and conquer Taiping, quarrying, and then fight against Jinling City! My son thought carefully that as long as my father takes action step by step, there will be no mistakes. If Hongdu is captured in a few months, the decisive battle in Jinling City will be decided!"

"Not bad, not bad..." Chen Youliang's eyes lit up. As long as he takes Hongdu, the overall situation will be decided!"

Anfeng is a county under Lu'an City. It is located on the south bank of the middle reaches of the Huai River, adjacent to Changfeng County in the east, Huainan City in the north, Fengtai County in the west, Huoqiu County in the west, Lu'an City in the south, and Feixi County in the south.

At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the Secretariat and the 11 Xing Secretariat were established, and the prefectures in Huainan were all subordinate to the Xing Secretariat in Henan. In the 14th year of Zhiyuan (1277 AD), the General Administration of Anfeng Road was established, with the capital of Shouchun and 5 counties. The following year, Shouchun was changed to Sanfu, and 3 counties were led. In the 28th year of Zhizheng, in the 10th year of Longfeng in the Song Dynasty (Han Liner) (1364 AD), Zhu Yuanzhang was called the King of Wu based on the Jianghuai River, and Shouchun was the governing capital of Shouzhou, and was subordinate to Linhao Prefecture.

Anfeng is located in the north and south, and is known as the "barrier of the Central Plains and throat of the south of the Yangtze River". It has been a battle of military strategists since ancient times. In history, wars are still frequent here. The Battle of Feishui in Qin (Fore Qin) and Jin (Eastern Jin) in 383 AD occurred here.

After several days of long journey, Zhu Yuanzhang's 100,000 troops finally arrived in Anfeng smoothly, but along the way, he learned bad news. Zhang Shicheng's general Lu Zhen learned that Liu Futong asked for help and Zhu Yuanzhang to attack the city overnight. Liu Futong led the soldiers in the city to resist to the death, but the strength was too great. Lu Zhen broke through the city, killed Liu Futong, imprisoned Xiao Ming Wang, dug ditches and trees, and guarded the water and land. He was waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang's arrival.
