Chapter 198: Rescue Sanjiangkou

Compared with Li Xiaofei's smooth march to capture Qixia Pass, Zhu Asan was not very lucky, he encountered a strong wind at sea and was blown off the course, and the fleet arrived three days later than originally expected.

When Zhu Asan's navy landed, to be precise, it was a forced landing, and the three warships in front directly collided with the pier and exchanged their lives for the Wei army, and the people behind were able to go ashore one after another.

The Liangzi flag on the head of the small city of Sanjiangkou has been incomplete, the city is full of burning wood, the archway at the city gate has collapsed in half, and there are still a few people in the city who are still throwing stones downward.

Zhu Asan swung his sword and rushed to the dock, commanding all the soldiers to attack the Wei army outside the city in two ways.

At the top of the city, the crow poked his head out and shouted, "Kill them all!" Lao Tzu has been angry for half a month! ”

At this time, the Wei army saw that the city was about to be broken, but unexpectedly Zhu Asan was inserted into a pole, and there were thousands of anger in his heart, but it was already the end of the crossbow.

Zhu Asan and his subordinates also came from afar, relying on the belief that saving people is like fighting fires.

Both sides were weak in strength, the Wei army retreated in the face of difficulties, and Zhu Asan could stop at the right time.

Temporarily repelling the Wei army, Zhu Asan left half of the people on the boat, and the other half of the people carried grain and grass into the city.

There are only eighty-three people left in the Southern Navy in the city, and the rest have already died in battle, and if Zhu Asan comes an hour late, these eighty-three people will have to die here.

Meng Crow sat paralyzed on the ground, "Lao Tzu has not slept for three days and three nights, can you send Lao Tzu to the boat to sleep peacefully!" ”

Zhu Asan couldn't help but wipe his eyes when he saw these eighty-three scarred comrades, "The big guy sent them all to the ship for treatment, but we were late!" I'm sorry brothers! ”

Meng Crow did not answer, but fell to the ground with his eyes closed and snored, and the soldiers had to carry him onto the boat.

Zhu Asan climbed the watchtower to look at the situation of the Wei army, and saw that the Wei army had already built a stockade on the hill ten miles away, and dozens of cooking smoke rose inside, which should be burying the pot to make rice.

Tian Erzhuang looked at it, "Let's take advantage of this time to sneak attack, even if we can't succeed, we can make them unable to eat!" ”

Zhu Asan nodded, "Okay, I'll take people to rush, and the second brother will take people to strengthen the city wall!" I'll go and I'll be back! ”

Just as Zhu Asan was about to take people out of the city, Tian Erzhuang shouted, "Third brother, you can't go, there are Ya Que screaming around several dense forests around the village, there must be ambush soldiers!" ”

Zhu Asan immediately gathered his subordinates and returned to the city, and climbed the watchtower again to take a look, and sure enough, many elegant birds were hovering over several dense forests around the stockade.

"Come on, drums! Tell them no more ambushes, it's not going to be on when we do! Zhu Asan ordered

Several drums sounded on the city wall, and the branches of the trees in the dense forest shook, and sure enough, many people appeared.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Asan and Tian Erzhuang both understood that the Wei army was outnumbered, and I was afraid that the Southern Navy would fall into a heavy encirclement again.

"Second brother, you go back to the ship, take your brothers three miles away from the shore, and take turns to monitor the movements on the shore day and night!"

"The third brother should also be careful in the city, at present, it seems that it is difficult for us to break through from here!"

"The enemy's sailors have not been dispatched for so long, maybe there is some conspiracy! The second brother should also be careful on the river! ”

The two brothers instructed each other, and Tian Erzhuang took the sailor to the sea.

The Wei army actually wanted to use a water division down the river to attack, but the problem was that the Wei army did not have a water division.

After the Wei army occupied Jiangnan, the Jiangnan Navy Division took over only dozens of large ships. Later, Sun Weihan made the history of Yangzhou and bought it

The Governor of the Navy took all the remaining ships to trade with the South China Sea.

But all these people in the South China Sea didn't know that the "sailors" of the Wei army were still parked on the other side of the South China Sea at the moment, but Zhu Asan was still worried about being attacked by them.

The Wei army, which was stationed in the mountains, was led by An Siqing, a close confidant who had followed Zhu Yaoshi south.

An Siqing sent people to collect boats and form a sailor several times, but only a few dozen small fishing boats were gathered.

An Siqing was puzzled, and the locals told him that Sun Weihan was forbidden to the sea, and except for the Jiangnan Naval Division, the rest of the big ships were either dismantled or sold to the South China Sea.

An Si drew his knife and slashed indiscriminately, and persuaded him to return to his life as long as he took the Sanjiangkou.

"The Xianxia Pass in the south is lost, what life is there to regain? Do you want me to learn from them to run away and surrender? In our army, there are those who dare to flee and surrender, behead! ”

Under An Siqing's strict orders, the 8,000 soldiers and horses besieging Sanjiangkou had to continue the siege along the mountain.

After Li Xiaofei seized Xianxia Pass, he suggested that he take Qiantang directly, after all, Qiantang is the most prosperous place in the Jiangnan region.

Zhou Dapeng asked Li Xiaofei to lead the bow and crossbow battalion, the white horse battalion, the dead soldier battalion, the spear battalion, and the four battalions of men and horses to reinforce Sanjiangkou.

At this time, the White Horse Camp already had 800 war horses, and the war horses were all bought from the local big families, and these war horses were originally allocated to the counties by the Great Liang Imperial Court, but they all entered the stables of the big families.

Some people who don't know each other actually ask Li Xiaofei for a high price, Li Xiaofei smiled coldly, "When I Li Xiaofei killed the big family in the north, didn't you hear about it?" ”

Zhou Dapeng originally felt that Li Xiaofei was too polite to these people, and later directly requisitioned horses, grain and grass from large wealthy merchants.

Li Xiaofei also turned a blind eye to these things, as long as he didn't cause deaths, he would first meet the military needs.

The reason for the rescue of Sanjiangkou Zhou Dapeng said that everyone was dumbfounded, because the enemy besieging Sanjiangkou was the most capable of fighting by the Wei army in the Jiangnan region.

"Brother Zhou, since it is such a powerful enemy, why don't we avoid the enemy's edge, why do we have to rush over! It's a big deal, the brothers in Sanjiangkou will take a boat and leave! Zheng Da said he couldn't understand

"I think since it is a strong enemy, we should go with eight battalions of people and horses, and only go to four battalions, I'm afraid it's too few!" Chen Jingyi felt that it was not easy for his White Horse Battalion to have a war horse, and if he fought hard with An Siqing, he would have no capital in the future.

The rest of the crowd also said they couldn't understand. Zhou Dapeng looked at Chen Jingyi, "General Chen, how many infantry can you face with your swordsmanship and riding skills?" ”

"Thirty! Couldn't have been more! Chen Jingyi replied very simply

"If one day you defeat forty people, does it mean that you have surpassed yourself! Nowadays, if we pick soft persimmons and pinch them, how can we become famous! When encountering a strong enemy, we will not dare to take the initiative to attack, how will our southern navy dominate the world in the future! Back then, General Chen defeated a strong enemy to have a great reputation! ”

Zhou Dapeng's words made everyone blush, and Li Xiaofei laughed, "It's all because I, the coach, are too cowardly, so that you don't have the confidence to fight!" Brother Zhou is right, if we can't defeat the main force of the Wei army in Jiangnan in a battle, they have captured the mouth of the Sanjiang River, and they will come to fight us when they turn around! For the sake of insurance, I took the bow and crossbow battalion, the white horse battalion, the dead soldier battalion, the spear battalion to set off first, and Brother Zhou followed up with the sword and shield battalion diggers! It's good to take care of each other! The newly built Eighth Battalion of the Partial Army and the Kaishan Battalion of the Long Halberd Battalion are waiting in Xianxia Pass, and these ten battalions must practice every day! In the future, I will also gnaw hard bones! ”

"Okay, now that we have horses in the White Horse Battalion, it's time for the enemy to see how powerful we are!

Chen Jingyi looked at Zhou Dapeng, after all, it was he who got these eight hundred horses.

"You are a bait to lure the enemy into battle this time, the area around Sanjiangkou is not suitable for cavalry combat, and sending the White Horse Battalion is to let the enemy despise our army, so that there is a chance to lure them out!" Zhou Dapeng immediately dispelled Chen Jingyi's illusions

Deng Liang and Lin Changsheng glanced at each other, "It seems that this battle is relying on us to gnaw hard bones!" ”

Cai Guishan said coldly: "You may all bait and let the enemy army make a flaw, and then our dead soldier battalion is waiting for the opportunity to cut the enemy!" This battle will depend on the fatal blow of our battalion of dead soldiers! ”

Li Xiaofei waved his hand, "Our four battalions are only more than 2,000 people, and the enemy army claims to be 30,000, although it is exaggerated, there are always 15,000 people!" This battle is about everyone working together to fight a tough battle, not fighting alone! The reason why I have personally taken you is to give you courage! ”

The four of them looked at each other at this time, and Li Xiaofei was not afraid of scaring the soldiers under his hands, so he even told this team of more than 2,000 people that there were 15,000 enemy troops.

Zhou Dapeng coughed: "You are no longer the ones who practice martial arts in the South China Sea and fight nonsense!" You must be worthy of the name of general given to you by General Chen! You must know that after General Chen Lao made meritorious service to King Qin, the imperial court originally wanted to worship him as General Wei, but he insisted that he could only be a lieutenant of the Tun Cavalry! He's been a captain for decades! ”

The faces of the four of them were flushed, especially Chen Jingyi and Cai Guishan, who had always been arrogant, and sweat was already on their foreheads.

"There is no need to say more, where my Li Xiaofei is, you will kill you! There is no other skill in this battle, that is, you can't be afraid, if you are afraid, you will die without a place to be buried! ”

"Well, since we have walked out of the South China Sea, we will not be deserters! The big deal is to die in the battle of Sanjiangkou! ”

"You Master Li are here, what else do we have to say, I hope Brother Zhou arrives early, I'm afraid we won't be able to stand it!" Lin Changsheng felt a little sorry for his archers, and the cost of training a bow and crossbow battalion with an accurate head was too great.

Zhou Dapeng knew what the calculations of several people were in their hearts, "The brothers in each battalion have been trained hard over the years, and they have spent countless grains, rice, and equipment in Nanhai County, you remember, as long as there are people, even if the knife is chopped, the bow is broken, and the war horse is down, everything can still be fought back!" At the critical moment, don't hesitate and cower, this time if anyone does a bad seed before the battle, Master Li is soft-hearted, and I Zhou Dapeng will not be soft-hearted! ”

Li Xiaofei dragged Zhou Dapeng and signaled him not to put pressure on everyone, Zhou Dapeng simply said directly, "I deliberately want to put pressure on you, fighting is not a child's play, let alone such a smooth sailing water that you have fought these days, the battle of Sanjiangkou is a touchstone, defeat can only prove that you are not suitable for this road, if you win, there will be more difficult challenges in the future!" Leading troops to fight has always been hell on earth, if I can't stand it and go back to the South China Sea now, I will not be embarrassed! ”

Zhou Dapeng's words provoked everyone to shout: "We are not bad seeds!" General Zhou underestimated us too much! ”

"Brothers, this battle must be fought well, and it must be shown to General Zhou!"

"Yes, after seven or eight years of hard training, how can we be worthless in General Zhou's mouth!"

When Zhou Dapeng saw that his goal was achieved, he whispered to Li Xiaofei: "You can go!" This time, I'm betting on you! If you can't stand it, go back! We joined forces to destroy An Siqing! ”

Li Xiaofei nodded, "This time, there are many people who can't come back, I'm really not used to bringing recruits to fight vicious battles!" ”

"Just get used to it! Without going through a vicious battle, this army will never be able to become a real soldier! ”
