"You Zhang Dabao broke away from the fleet with the cargo ship and went to Xuyi? What the hell is going on? Was it hijacked by the Qi army? Now aren't the Qi troops in Huainan all beaten by us and hiding in the city and not daring to come out? Wu Mingche was also taken aback when he heard the news.

"The specific situation is still unclear, but since there is news of him, then I am ready to lead the infantry battalion to Xuyi!" Xiao Yao said.

"You're going to Xuyi? So what about Shouyang now? Wu Mingche asked in surprise, now the infantry battalion is the trump card in Chen's army.

"It's useless for me to stay here, my infantry battalion is nothing without gunpowder, do you think I will take the soldiers of the infantry battalion to attack the city with broadswords, bows and arrows?" Xiao Yao laughed at himself.

"Alas, when we started attacking the city, we lost nearly 10,000 soldiers, if it weren't for these troops from all over the country, we wouldn't have enough manpower to continue to besiege Shouyang! Without the help of your firearms, the siege will make no progress, and the generals who thought they were right before will be gone! Wu Mingche also smiled bitterly, at the beginning, those generals were proud after a few victories, and they always thought that the Qi army was so vulnerable, but now they can't capture the inner city of Shouyang after attacking it a few times, and finally know that their level is like that, and the sum of several is not as good as a Wang Lin who defends the city!

"So I want to lead the infantry battalion to Xuyi, first, I can go to Zhang Dabao, and second, I can take over the 20,000 defenders besieging Xuyi City, and let them rush to Shouyang to assist the governor to break the city!" Xiao Yao came up with his thoughts.

"Your infantry battalion only has 1,000 people, and you want to take over 20,000 to besiege Xuyi? Are you kidding? Wu Mingche was a little angry, he was in a bad mood these days.

"I didn't want to besiege Xuyi, I was ready to take Xuyi City!" Xiao Yao said coldly.

"Take it?" Wu Mingche was taken aback.

"I have sent someone back to Jinling, let the General Commercial Bank prepare another batch of ammunition and materials for me, and then send it to meet the infantry battalion outside Xuyi City, although my infantry battalion is only a thousand people, but when the time comes, it will replenish the medicine and capture Xuyi City, it is not a simple matter!" Xiao Yao said domineeringly.

"Good! Young people just want to be domineering! Ha ha! Okay, I agreed, you can take your infantry battalion to Xuyi, anyway, I also thought of a good way to break the city here in Shouyang! So you don't need your infantry battalion for the time being. Wu Mingche's mood changed unusually and he laughed.

"How?" Xiao Yao asked curiously.

"A few days ago, I saw the Weishui River next to Shouyang, the water level rose sharply, and suddenly I had an idea, and I thought of a water attack! And the terrain of the inner city of Shouyang is not high, only I built a cofferdam in the Weishui River, diverted the river water, and led to the inner city of Shouyang, when the city will be full of water, and the inner city of Shouyang will be self-defeating! Wu Mingche smiled proudly.

"Awesome! The Metropolitan Governor is really not old with a sword, and he is clever enough to come up with such a brilliant plan, and he is really willing to bow to the wind and admire it! Xiao Yao was a sycophant and slapped Wu Mingche into laughter excitedly, and the laughter resounded throughout the entire military camp.

Second, Wu Mingche sent the infantry battalion to Xuyi on the grounds that he needed to break through Xuyi City as soon as possible so as not to be attacked by the enemy in the middle of the day. At this time, Xiao Yao's new legend circulated in the Chen army: Xiao Yao only needs 1,000 people to complete 20,000 people to complete the siege task, you must know that there are nearly 20,000 Rao defenders in Xuyi City, although they are all a group of remnants of the defeated army, but it is not a joke if it is ruthless! With a thousand people, he dared to attack 20,000 Rao City, which shows how terrifying Xiao Yao's strength is!

。。。。。。

Xiao Yao set off with two gunboats and two troop carriers, and went straight down the Huai River to Xuyi! At this time, in a barren mountain outside Xuyi City, Zhang Dabao, who looked entangled and nervous, was fidgeting at a middle-aged man in his thirties in front of him under the deterrence of the two big men.

I saw that this man was slender and well-proportioned, fair and handsome, seeing such a perfect appearance, other men, even women felt ashamed and jealous!

He is the king of Lanling, Gao Changgong!

Zhang Dabao has been kidnapped! And he was kidnapped by Gao Changgong himself!

Time back to a month ago, as Pi Jinghe led an army of 50,000 troops into Xuzhou, and divided the troops to Gao Changgong, so that he swept away the previous decline, and had an army in his hands that could be mobilized, Gao Changgong immediately implemented the long-planned plan.

Chen Qi and Qi are at war, but trade is still exchanged, so some trading houses that are active between the two countries can perform some spy work such as selling intelligence and spreading rumors, such as the General Merchant Bank and the Yinhai Commercial School

After receiving Chen Shubao's instructions, Yinhai Commercial Bank began to contact Qi State frequently, hoping to find a helper in Qi State who could help them get rid of Xiao Yao, so Gao Changgong, who also regarded Xiao Yao as a thorn in his eye, met with the person in charge of the branch of Yinhai Commercial Bank who was doing business in Xuzhou.

At this time, Zhang Dabao, who happened to return to Jinling to visit relatives, was also targeted by Chen Shubao! Then by a "chance", Zhang Dabao was taken into the top floor of the Four Seasons Restaurant and met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chen Shubao, who was above 10,000 people under Chen Guo!

"Captain Zhang, this palace heard that General Zhang was suddenly infected with a disease, and he is also very worried, there is an old ginseng in the deep mountains, which was recovered by Boss Zhang of Yinhai Commercial Bank with a lot of money, and I now give it to you, hoping to make General Zhang's illness get better soon, and then serve the imperial court!" Chen Shubao looked caring and authentic.

"Thank you for Your Highness's concern, thank Your Highness for your father!" Zhang Dabao was so excited that he immediately knelt down and thanked him. I didn't expect to be able to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, but also to receive such a valuable gift, you must know that he was worried about his father's illness to death, and he took several medicines but never recovered, and now there is such a ginseng, maybe he can cure his father's illness!

"General Zhang is a minister of the imperial court and a pillar of the country, and as the crown prince, of course I have to care more! Good news came from the front line, Captain Zhang's infantry battalion made a lot of contributions in the battle against the Qi army, and even the name of the first martial artist of Jinling in the Huangfa Qu family was seen by his father, haha, I don't know how Captain Zhang feels with such a boss? Chen Shubao smiled.

Zhang Dabao is also a smart person, and when he heard that Uncle Chen was so obvious, he immediately said: "The reason why the Qi army was defeated was not because the firearms used by Xiao Yao were extremely powerful, as long as there were these weapons in hand, anyone could win the Qi army, and Xiao Yao was also fearless because he had these weapons, no one in his eyes, and with such a boss, he would suffer sooner or later!" ”

"As Xiao Yao's subordinate, isn't it okay to speak ill of your boss behind your back?" Chen Shubao continued to smile.

"Your Highness Mingjian, the reason why I became Xiao Yao's subordinate is really not what I wanted, with such an arrogant boss who doesn't know the height of the earth, Dabao also has a lot of bitterness in his heart! Now in front of His Highness, Dabao didn't dare to hide anything, he just wanted to spit out the bitterness in his heart, even if His Highness wanted to blame Dabao, Dabao was willing! Zhang Dabao immediately knelt down to Chen Shubao and pleaded guilty.

"Haha, Dabao, please get up! Dabao is so straightforward and frank, he is really our loyal and good general of Da Chen, how can this palace blame you! Chen Shubao personally helped Zhang Dabao Dao.

"Thank you for Your Highness's trust and love, Dabao is unforgettable, and he will definitely be loyal to His Highness!" Zhang Dabao was so excited that tears flowed out, and the prince personally helped himself up, marking that he had joined the prince's camp and became his confidant, this is the prince, the future emperor!

"Actually, we have been monitoring Xiao Yao, so this palace also knows everything about what happened to Dabao in the infantry battalion! Xiao Yao is really insidious, cunning and ruthless, he actually took away your military power, let his private soldier take over those brothers who were born and died with you for many years, and let you make a school captain a private soldier as a deputy, you must know that now even Huang Jiazi has become a cavalry captain! Chen Shubao fanned the flames and said.

"Alas, I can only blame Dabao for his bad luck and met such a person, but now Dabao has finally come to the bitter end, and finally met the master, I hope His Royal Highness can pull Dabao and let Dabao leave Xiao Yao's Rao control! In the future, Dabao will definitely saddle up the horse for His Royal Highness, and go to the soup and fire, at any cost! Zhang Dabao looked forward to it.
