?The Zhou army camp in Yanji, the south bank of the Yangtze River, and the governor of Bazhou Yuwen Wen was inspecting the preparations for war. In the afterglow of the setting sun, Chen army outside the camp ended today's tentative attack and retreated to the camp in a mess. 8﹏w-w·w-.

`

Since Chen's army's "recovery" of Wuchang, Yanji has become a thorn in the eyes and has been attacked continuously. Thanks to the various fortifications that have been rushing to work day and night, Yanji is still under the control of the Zhou army.

The dense trenches, like the antlers of bushes, were completed and expanded in just a few days. After several consecutive defeats, Chen Jun could only watch Zhou Jun gain a foothold in the south bank.

The Chen army also invested many troops to attack the camp. Several times, but the Zhou army almost broke into danger at a critical moment thanks to the navy's assistance. The warships loaded with archers could directly approach the shore and shoot arrows. The Chen army attacking the camp was attacked by the enemy but could not counterattack and could only retreat.

The opposite bank of Yanji is Bakou of Bazhou, and not far downstream are the five continents located in the middle of the river. The support is very strong and convenient. Relying on these favorable conditions, the Zhou army firmly nailed the south of the Yangtze River to make the Chen army in Yingzhou feel like a thorn in his throat. Yuwen Wen personally visited Yanji and the soldiers to resist the Chen army's attack.

The commander personally took charge and there were reinforcements outside the army, so the soldiers were in high spirits. When Chen Jun retreated, they began to clean up the walls, then eat and rest to maintain their spirits, and fight again in the future. Yuwen Wen checked the wounded soldiers and checked the defenses but did not go anywhere.

"The rotation of soldiers must be handled impartially. Those who should be on duty are not allowed to leave, and those who should be on duty should not stay on duty. Let's ﹏ ` ◗- ｗ=．-" Yuwen Wen said to the generals around him. After several offensive and defensive battles, those who were injured in Yanji have been transferred to Jiangbei for recuperation, and at the same time, people have been transferred to supplement to maintain their combat effectiveness.

"Please rest assured, no one can be wrong!" said Chen Wudi, the commander-in-chief. He is now the chief general of Yanji, leading the army to the south of the Yangtze River as a nail.

"Just knowing attack is not enough. Now is a good opportunity to practice defense, so don't miss it."

This was a rare opportunity to train troops, so Yuwen Wen asked the soldiers in the prefecture to take turns to Yanji to garrison and receive the baptism of the war. Thanks to their own control of the Yangtze River channel, it was very convenient for warships to transport troops on the river.

Before the situation changes drastically, this is a good opportunity for a round of battles. Not only the Hulin Army, but also the provincial soldiers, but also the rural soldiers must take the opportunity to gain experience. Those provincial soldiers and rural soldiers are not good enough to fight in the wild, but it is most appropriate to huddle in the camp to shoot arrows and throw stones and roll wood.

The Hulin Army was also a good opportunity to start a fish-baman battle like Tongbai Shanbaman after several consecutive battles. If the Yanji offensive and defensive battle continues like this, it will be a good opportunity for the state soldiers and the township soldiers to train.

Standing on the west side of the camp, Yuwen Wen looked at the outline of Xiyang City on the north bank of the river in the northwest direction. Since the war rekindled, he led his troops south to travel around and "running projects" so busy that he had never even returned to his home several times. He was also very hardworking to urge the soldiers to set new highs in performance.

To put it nicely, this tactic is harassment, and torture is robbery. The boss... The coach must be on the scene to suppress all kinds of ready-to-go ideas.8 ｗ-ｗ．

Chen Jun looked very trash, so most of his generals were overly optimistic. He agreed to withdraw after pulling out the beacon and sentry, but he often couldn't bear to think that the stronghold could repel the Chen Jun's counterattack. Not to mention Wuchang, even if the whistle fort is like this.

The Zhou army looked at Wuchang three times, and the Wuchang city was like paper, allowing them to come and go freely, so the morale of the Hulin Army was high, many people hoped to be guarded by the city. Everyone thought that they had controlled the river surface, so that the personnel and materials could be transported to Jiangnan calmly, so it took several months without fear.

After the war in the north ended, Daxingtai mobilized heavy troops to go south, but Yingzhou would definitely be able to be captured. If Yingzhou is taken west, he can attack Chen's Bazhou and even the remaining Xiang, Xin, Jing, Wu and Yuan may be able to be captured.

Of course, the Chen army would not give up, but would do its best to send water and the army advance westward. But it doesn't matter. Five continents can definitely block the Chen State's naval army in the hands of the Zhou army, so they would not think about it.

It's as simple as cutting tofu with a knife, so the Hulin Army was eager to try and make great contributions to the field. It was so beautiful together. Everyone was dreaming, so Yuwen Wen wanted to break his dreams himself.

Because Chen State has not yet become that wasteful, the battle around Wuchang will become a long-term tug-of-war and they will die first. With the power of Bazhou and Chen State's consumption, it is a delusion. As for mobilizing the resources of the Huangzhou General Administration to invest in Wuchang's tug-of-war, it is even more costly.

There are priorities and priorities. The current main enemy of Zhou State is Sui State, so it is irrational to involve too many resources to the Chen State in Yingzhou, Wuchang City, in Jiangnan. The troops of the Huangzhou General Administration must also be used as a reserve force to prevent the situation from worsening to put out the fire. If it is trapped in Jiangnan for a long time, the flexibility will be basically gone.

Yuwen Wen can "scan the face" and ask the Huangzhou general manager to "help" but things must be done in a good way, so he should try his best to support himself. It is impossible to let go of Chen Guo's dungeon for no reason, so he has to weigh the pros and cons and choose a compromise plan.

The resources required to defend Wuchang are too many. Most of the conventional city offensive and defensive battles these days last for more than half a year. If the attacking side is unwilling to give up, it is possible for more than a year. Yuwen Wen does not want to trap almost all his troops in Wuchang and cannot move.

Bazhou accepted thousands of Wuchang people, and thousands of prisoners of war who worked as laborers. If enough people were not left to stay in charge, something would happen sooner or later. But if Chen Jun in Jiangnan was comfortable, then Yuwen Wen couldn't get over the "conscience" so he had to find a good place in Jiangnan.

Yanji is this good place. With this Jiangnan stronghold, you can hold the Yangtze River channel with Bakou in the north and the five continents in the river to keep Chen Guoru stuck in his throat. With the strength of Bazhou, you can also maintain this line of defense.

Yanji camp has dug deep trenches and built high walls and built wharfs. The support of naval warships can be achieved by one. Yuwen Wen invested manpower and material resources on the five continents to strengthen the garrison of the five continents and used it as a berth of naval warships, which can ensure freedom of travel. Bazhou soldiers can take the boat to garrison Yanji in turn and have the logistics support. It is an ideal "rotary battle" stronghold.

It was not his turn to fight against Sui in the north, but it did not mean that the soldiers under his command would be stunned, so he would never let the Chen State in the south. With Yanji as a stronghold, he sent troops to harass the surrounding Chen army, which was a thing that the Hulin Army fought and the Han people were happy to see.

Only when there is war can you have the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and only when there is meritorious contribution can you get rewards. The soldiers are very eager to fight, so Yuwen Wen, the "contractor", must keep looking for projects for their subordinates to do.

After walking around the camp, it was just the meal time. Yuwen Wen, like other generals, made meals with the soldiers. This regulation became the iron rule of the Hulin Army and was also an important means to gather morale.

But the main purpose is to ensure food. The soldiers who make food in the same pot can ensure that the food will not be short, and the rice will not be mixed with sand and will not be inferior to the good ones. It is absolutely impossible to use rotten vegetable roots, dead fish, rotten shrimps and pork to make up for the number of rotten pork.

Don’t worry about poverty and unevenness, let the soldiers know that the generals eat the same thing as themselves, so even if the conditions are difficult, there will be no complaints. This is the place where the Hulin Army is stationed, so the soldiers and soldiers guarding the village together also follow this example.

The food is very simple, with brown rice, vegetables and dried fish. Considering that the soldiers sweat a lot in summer, the vegetables are salty, but brown rice porridge can be chosen, Yuwen Wen was having a meal with the soldiers and suddenly someone came to report that there was military information.

"Military Information?" Yuwen Wen put down his bowls and chopsticks and walked out. He set off so many fires in Jiangnan that he couldn't help but go north to attack Qizhou in Jiangbei. The other party was probably thinking of striking the east and attacking the west.
