Things didn't turn around.
It's just been less than a month.
The detectives and spies sent by Yang Lin have already detected the news of the imperial court sending troops.
It is said that there was an uproar in the court on the second day after the Jiangzhou incident and the killing of imperial envoys for resisting the decree.
Chen Guangrui, the governor of Jiangzhou, was identified as a rebel, and a minister wrote a letter requesting to suppress the bandits and restore peace to Jiangzhou.
The court approved this matter.
At that moment, General Wei Chifeng was sent south with 50,000 forbidden troops, heading straight to Jiangzhou.
The Supervision Department, the Demon Slayer Department, and many masters from the Forbidden Army accompanied them.
"Sir, do you want to gather troops to meet the enemy?"
When Chen Lin heard the news, he didn't know how many strands of his beard were broken, and he entered the Governor's Mansion again worriedly.
"How about releasing all the remaining people and writing a letter of apology?"
Hearing that 50,000 heavenly soldiers had arrived, Jiangzhou had been designated as a rebel. Not only Chen Lin couldn't sit still, but the people of Jiangzhou were also panicked.
However, what makes Yang Lin happy is that the people's hearts are still towards him, and there are not many escapes. There are also many good family members who actively join the army, hoping to coexist and die with Jiangzhou.
It proves that he is still very popular among the people after operating in Jiangzhou for so many years.
Those wealthy families wanted to escape.
But Yang Lin sent people to watch him, and he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that they will fight back when the situation is dangerous. For now, there is still no problem.
"Do you think it is useful to apologize at this time, Chen Changshi? That's all, you are just a scholar, focus on internal affairs and appease the people. Don't pay too much attention to other things, just pretend that nothing happened."
Old God Yang Lin is here.
He also had the time to tease his little daughter.
While sipping the fragrant tea prepared by his wife, he didn't take it seriously at all.
Isn’t it just an army of fifty thousand?
That's all.
The main body and mind of the deity are connected, and as long as you have the intention to sense it, you can sense it hundreds or thousands of miles away.
At this time, his clone had already rushed to the wilderness and forest, and had already set up a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. Even if the fifty thousand soldiers had many experts and a powerful army, whether they could reach Jiangzhou was still a problem.
Chen Lin didn't ask for any news, so it was more or less reassuring.
Since the governor is not worried, then he is not worried either.
Anyway, if you follow the governor from the beginning to the end, if you fail, it will be nothing more than death.
He sighed and left.
As expected, he no longer paid attention to it, but sent more manpower to the three counties to let the people live in their homes and not panic.
"Master, what do you have in mind to deal with the imperial soldiers?"
When Chief Shi Chen Lin came to visit, Yin Wenjiao didn't speak or show any concern.
At this time, I was curious and couldn't bear it any longer.
"If it is really difficult to resist, we don't necessarily have to guard Jiangzhou. Didn't Li Qing and the others occupy an island in the extreme south near the sea? If they escape there, they can go to sea at any time, and it will be much safer. "
"We haven't reached that stage yet, Gillian, tell me, if those 50,000 soldiers and all the leading generals were killed, would they still dare to invade Jiangzhou?"
"Master wants to..."
Yin Wenjiao had a look of shock in her eyes.
She didn't expect that she could play like this.
Killing the imperial envoys is just a repayment. At most, it can be regarded as separatist rule, and there is a disobedient heart. Moreover, by occupying the city and defending the territory, relying on the advantage of the city wall to survive until chaos breaks out in the court, no longer targeting.
However, with Jiangzhou's small force, no one would think so about confronting the conquering army in the wild and directly killing people and destroying the army.
However, she felt a little relieved when she thought of those golden-armored sword guards.
There is a way to play without soldiers.
After all, there are gods, demons, fairies and demons in this era, and personal strength may not always be superior to the army.
While the couple was chatting around the fire at night, something had happened where the 50,000 forbidden troops were stationed on the north bank of the Hongjiang River.
The night is dark and the wind is high.
The sound of water waves came to my ears, and under the light of sparse torches, there were densely packed military tents and camps that stretched for ten miles.
From time to time, night patrols would come and go.
At this time, it was still far away from Jiangzhou, and there was not much atmosphere of war.
In the Chinese military tent, Yuchi Feng was not resting. He was lighting a tall butter candle and discussing the offensive strategy with several generals.
The map is spread out on the table, and Jiangzhou's topography and mountains are at a glance.
"General, there's no need to think too much. With an army of fifty thousand approaching, someone might just open the city gate and let the drum go."
"No, be lenient to the enemy. That Governor Chen dared to kill the imperial envoy, and he has some masters under his command. He will probably not give up and hold on to the city. I heard that he has been very good at manipulating people's hearts over the years. If he really fights to the death If you give it a try, there will inevitably be some damage.”
A scribe next to him shook his head.
"It would be better to detach a partial army to attack Pengze and Duchang first, then besiege the city of Jiangzhou and force Chen Guangrui to leave the city to fight.
There are no reinforcements from outside, there is no place to defend inside, and the food and grass in Jiangzhou are not necessarily abundant. No matter what, they will be dead. As long as they are besieged for ten and a half days, they will be in chaos without fighting. "
"This is unreasonable. If we have to rely on a long-term siege to win this battle, it will really weaken the majesty of the imperial court and is inappropriate."
Another general was very dissatisfied.
The battle hasn't even started yet, but if you think about how to encircle the city and confront each other, wouldn't it be adding to others' prestige and destroying your own ambition?
Jiangzhou City heard that there are now only more than 2,000 county soldiers, all of whom are a mob.
Except for a few masters, there are no additional troops.
Under this situation, he didn't even dare to attack hard and take it directly.
So what's the point of sending 50,000 elite troops?
If the princes of the imperial court find out.
It will definitely make you laugh out loud.
It's just a joke.
The key point is that if someone reads this book and says that these generals who send troops are too timid to fight, then they have a bleak future.
In today's world, apart from the desperate efforts of the demon-suppressing camp in the Western Frontier, there is rarely a battle in the Central Plains.
There are very few opportunities to achieve such easy military exploits. As a general, no one would be willing to use such delaying tactics.
"Let's take a look first and then talk about it. After arriving in Jiangzhou, we can make a decision. Maybe when Chen Guangrui sees the heavenly soldiers approaching, he will cry and shout and plead guilty directly."
Yuchifeng waved his hand.
Stop the quarrel among the generals.
He smiled and said: "The champion, maybe he is stupid because of his studies. He doesn't know what he thinks. He thinks that he can become a king by himself in just one state with more than 2,000 soldiers or something? It's a pity that the whole family is about to die. It’s so pitiful to turn into powder.”
"Yes, I also heard that during this period, Chen Zhuangyuan also gave birth to a little daughter. Unfortunately, the little girl was just born and is not very sensible yet. She has not experienced the prosperity of the world, so she will return to hell with her father... ... Mr. Yin knows this news, but I don’t know how he feels?”
The generals burst into laughter.
"It's a meeting. Just in time. No need to search everywhere."
Suddenly, a slightly frivolous voice sounded in my ears.
Amidst the laughter, it seemed particularly harsh.
The generals turned their heads in horror, and saw at the entrance of the camp, at some point, a slender swordsman appeared in gold armor, holding a long sword, and even his face was covered by armor.
