After waiting for a stick of incense, his subordinates came back to tell him that they did see the Yu family's father and son reorganizing the ship, preparing to lead their subordinates to Zhu Yuanzhang. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liao Yongan opened his eyes, and a flash of light flashed, "This Zhu Yuanzhang has some ability, and he can really subdue Yu Yanyu." ”

"Big brother, will we descend Zhu Yuanzhang or not?" Liao Yongzhong heard that the father and son of the Yu family really belonged to Zhu Yuanzhang, and he immediately fidgeted. If it was just Zhu Yuanzhang who led the army to attack, they would not be afraid, but if Yu Yanyu also joined in, they would have to guard against it, after all, the old guy was also familiar with the water potential and terrain of Chaohu Lake.

"In your opinion?"

"Or let's go with us. Liao Yongzhong licked his lips, glanced at Liao Yongan anxiously, and snorted: "Now that the war is in chaos, the rich are hiding, we can't touch the rich, and the poor have nothing to fish, so many brothers are tightening their bellies to live." If we don't belong to Zhu Yuanzhang, he and Yu Yanyu will join forces to attack our village, and we will be the ones who will suffer at that time. It's better to simply belong to him, he will have to take care of our brother's food, let's get through this winter first......"

"Well, you have a point. Liao Yongan nodded, and suddenly said loudly: "Since we want to belong to Zhu Yuanzhang, we have to grab the jackpot in front of Yu Yanyu and compare that old thing." Pass my order, start counting the ships now, and get to Hezhou as soon as possible!"

"That's right, let's join Zhu Yuanzhang in front of Yu Yanyu's old horseman, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely value us more, or the eldest brother is wise and martial. Liao Yongzhong slapped his ass and praised Liao Yongan so much that his eyebrows fluttered.

The brothers politely invited Deng Yu out and asked him to go back to tell Zhu Yuanzhang that they were willing to bring people and ships to Zhu Yuanzhang, just asking Zhu Yuanzhang to give the brothers a way to live.

"The two commanders can rest assured that my family will never treat their own people badly. Deng Yu smiled, leaving the heart of the water village to be completely steady, he had the heart to shock the Liao brothers, and released a rocket into the sky, and after a while, the reeds moved, and many small boats rowed out of it, and went along the river under his leadership.

The Liao brothers who witnessed all this were secretly frightened, they claimed to be the overlords of the water, and they didn't even know when they approached the water village to set up an ambush, fortunately they agreed to surrender at that time, otherwise the catastrophe was just around the corner, and the two had no other ideas, and honestly returned to the village to arrange the surrender.

The boat that went back rode the wind and waves, speeding like lightning, Deng Yu stood at the bow of the boat and sighed with emotion, he didn't expect that the trip to persuade Liao Yongan to surrender would be so smooth, and he didn't even spend a single soldier, this was all due to Zhu Yuanzhang's prestige, and he had no future with such a leader. He returned to the barracks in a hurry, and when he learned that Zhu Yuanzhang was not in the camp, he couldn't hold back his excitement and went to the house to ask for a meeting.

Ma Xiuying's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it is inconvenient to move. Zhu Yuanzhang was very much looking forward to the arrival of this first child, and often stayed in the house to accompany Ma Xiuying, and when he heard that Deng Yu asked to see him, he asked with a smile: "Madame, guess if Deng Yu has completed the task this time?"

Ma Xiuying glanced at him, the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden, he must have received the good news in advance, and deliberately came to tease her, so he simply said angrily: "Yang Yunhua can persuade Yu Yanyu to surrender, if Deng Yu doesn't complete the task, wouldn't he even be as good as a woman, what's the use of keeping it, it's better to give up his position to Yang Yunhua." ”

"Hey, ma'am. Zhu Yuanzhang touched his nose and was a little helpless, Ma Xiuying's temper has been getting bigger and bigger recently, and sometimes it is simply unreasonable. However, looking at Ma Xiuying's swollen legs and pale face, he couldn't say half a word of scolding, but cautiously smiled and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, don't make you stunned again." ”

The temper of the pregnant woman comes and goes quickly, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's careless and attentive appearance, Ma Xiuying herself was a little embarrassed, slowly lay down, and said apologetically: "Starling, I'm sorry for you this time." ”

"Don't be embarrassed, don't be embarrassed, you're fine. Zhu Yuanzhang skillfully helped her massage her legs. The blood veins under the leg are clearly visible, and it is a small socket when pressed, because the enlarged uterus obstructs the return of venous blood, thereby aggravating the varicose veins in the lower limbs and pelvic area, causing Ma Xiuying's body to be swollen, and it is also because these symptoms make Ma Xiuying's mood unstable. Always irritable and irritable.

Ma Xiuying's mood was slowly relieved during the massage, she retracted her leg and said, "Go and see Deng Yu, don't let people wait too long." ”

"Well, I'll go see him and come back with you. Zhu Yuanzhang got up, put a small futon on her leg, and left.

Xun Ying slipped in, his eyes fell on the futon, and said with a smile: "The master is so good to you, you have finished all the work that the slaves and maids have to do." ”

"Since he has done all your work, he will help you get paid at the end of the month. Ma Xiuying glanced at Xunying, what is this, in the world of her previous life, there was still a husband who was the twenty-fourth filial son of his wife.

Xun Ying's face suddenly fell, just kidding, as for being so serious?

Ma Xiuying also said casually that Zhu Yuanzhang can do this step is already very good, at least she has not heard of any emperor in history who will massage his wife. She adjusted a lying position to stretch her legs more, and asked, "Except for the Yu family's father and son, and the Liao brothers, how are the other water cottages moving?"

Xun Ying said helplessly: "Master, you are like this, and you still worry so much, this is all the master's business." ”

Ma Xiuying disagreed, "Starling is busy training as a sailor, how can he have the energy to be distracted, I can help him solve these small things, I will try to solve them." ”

Trivial matter? Investigate the forces of various mountain bandits and water bandits, and design to surrender and attach, this is called a trivial matter? Xunying rolled her eyes, she looked at Ma Xiuying's firm expression, and still reported honestly: "In addition to the two forces of Yu and Liao, there are also Li Pusheng according to Wuwei Prefecture, Zhao Pusheng according to Hanshanzhai, and Zuo Junbi according to Luzhou. Li Pusheng and Zhao Pusheng may say that they will surrender, but it is not easy to say that Zuo Junbi is there, it is said that this person frequently contacts the Yuan people, and I am afraid that he wants to take refuge in the Yuan Court. ”

"Zuo, Jun, Bi!" Ma Xiuying repeated these three words, she had no impression of this name, and she should not be a brilliant figure in history. But even if it is an inconspicuous pebble, it can't let him block Zhu Yuanzhang's way forward, if he refuses to belong to Zhu Yuanzhang, he would rather destroy it! She was about to send the shadow guard to assassinate Zuo Junbi, her stomach suddenly hurt, she hurriedly covered her stomach and smiled bitterly: "That's it, that's it, you have to accumulate virtue for the child, and these things will be handled by the starling." ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang came back, Ma Xiuying reminded him not to ignore other forces, since someone is attached to him, there will be someone who will defect to the Yuan Court, and he must take precautions as soon as possible to eliminate these hidden dangers as soon as possible.

However, without waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to order the extermination of the nearby forces that refused to be attached, Zuo Junbi had already sent someone to contact the Yuan army and secretly reported that the Chaohu Water Division had joined Zhu Yuanzhang and wanted to gather power to celebrate the celebration.

When the Yuan court heard that Chaohu Shuikou was going to take refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang, he was frightened and hurriedly sent the general Manzihaya to gather ships to block the mouth of the Mawei River. The father and son of the Yu family and the Liao brothers repeatedly failed to break through the Yuan army's ship formation, so they had to temporarily garrison Huangdun to ask Zhu Yuanzhang for help.

When Zhu Yuanzhang received the news, he immediately raised merchant ships, filled them with elite warriors, and prepared to send troops.

Ma Xiuying pulled him and said, "Starling, I have invented a fire oil crossbow, which can be used to fight against the Yuan army ships, you can see the effect first." ”

"Don't worry about that, your body is the most important thing. Zhu Yuanzhang was displeased, but he was very active in coming to the garden with Ma Xiuying.

Sunkage presented a long crossbow with a thick tip and tail, the front half of the crossbow was the same as the usual arrow crossbow, and the back half was stuffed into a sealed bamboo barrel, which was filled with fire oil. But seeing the soldier pull the bow and stretch the string, the long crossbow galloped out like a meteor, and soon hit the target erected in the distance, and with a "bang", the bamboo tube shattered, and the fire oil splashed out of it, spraying everywhere.

Ma Xiuying asked people to take the target back, and nodded with satisfaction, "With these fire oils, if the starling orders someone to throw the explosive package, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed, didn't he, shoot these fire oil into the enemy's ship, and then use explosives packs or artillery to start a fire, even if the enemy used water, it couldn't be extinguished. He immediately ordered the people to cut down the bamboo forests and make fire and oil crossbows, and when everything was ready, he personally led his troops to the mouth of the Mawei River to fight Manzihaya.

At the same time, the Yu family father and son and the Liao brothers also led the Chaohu Water Division to attack Manzihaya.

Manzihaya was suddenly caught between the front and back, and he hurriedly tried to withdraw from the mouth of the Mawei River, but the building boat was tall and unfavorable.

The Red Turban Army's fire oil crossbow and explosives bag were like maggots on tarsal bones, staring closely at the building ship and launching, the coordination of the two weapons was really seamless, and the fire after the explosion of the explosive package burned more and more violently with the help of fire oil. Seeing that the fire on the building ship could not be extinguished, many Yuan soldiers jumped into the river one after another. Liao Yongan and others manipulated the boat, going back and forth like flying, interspersed with battles between the buildings and ships, and when they saw the Yuan soldiers in the water, they were pierced with a shot. Soon the Yuan army was beaten to pieces and fled in a hurry. Zhu Yuanzhang led his army to chase all the way to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and did not stop fighting until Manzihaya hastily returned to Wuhu with the remnants of the fleet.

The battle was successful, and the soldiers and people of Hezhou flocked to the river to welcome the triumphant return of Zhu Yuanzhang's army.

Black dots gradually emerged at the end of the sky, more and more black dots, bigger and bigger, and when you get closer, they are actually ships with sails and flags.

The crowd was smiling and about to cheer.

Suddenly, countless wind fighting clippers rushed out of the fleet, and they were like arrows from the string, and they were soon approaching the Hezhou River. When Liao Yongan stood on the first boat, he raised his hand and shouted: "Yu Yanyu, Lao Tzu arrived before you, haha!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, don't let that guy go. Yu Yanyu urged his three sons and his men to row desperately, and the sails on the boat were blown up by the wind.

"If you want to win me, no way!" Liao Yongan stopped talking and rowed with all his might.

The fleets on both sides were racing towards the shore.

The people cheered loudly, jumping and cheering for both sides.

Yu Yanyu and Liao Yongan's ships arrived at the shore almost at the same time, and the two glared at each other, not bothering to speak, and gathered the ship's men together. When Zhu Yuanzhang came ashore, they bowed their heads and bowed: "Subordinate Yu Yanyu (Liao Yongan) to meet the marshal." ”

"Hurry up, the two leaders have worked hard. Zhu Yuanzhang held one in one hand and smiled so much that he couldn't close his mouth. This time to subdue the Yu father and son and the Liao brothers and defeat Manzihaya, his strength has increased greatly, and he has more than 1,000 large and small warships overnight, with this strong naval division, the attack on Jiqing is just around the corner.

The joy of the riverside spread to the inner courtyard of the Zhu Mansion, and Xun Ying laughed so much that tears flowed out, "The Yu father and son and the Liao brothers are not young, how can they still be angry like children." ””

Ma Xiuying shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "These two people live next to the water, they have always been competitors, although they belong to the starling, their competitive spirit has not diminished in the slightest, I hope they can use this momentum to fight against the Yuan army." ”

"Hehe, the lord should give them a military order, whoever defeats the Yuan army will be the general. ”
