Chapter 167 Night into a Thousand Times

Xiaoqing River, located in the lower reaches of Jishui, is the last section of the Jishui River rushing into the sea!

Qiancheng County, close to Xiaoqing River, the county seat is not large, the population is not large, a small county in Beihai County!

In the afternoon of this day, a fleet of ships stretching for several miles slowly sailed into the Xiaoqing River from the mouth of the sea, and among the fleet, there were more than 100 large and small warships, of which 15 main ships were huge, and the flagpoles on the ships were numerous, and the flags were raised in the wind, and the hunting sounded!

The fleet traveled very fast, and in the evening it came to a small fishing village called Shuidong Village, which is very small, with only more than ten households, located in the middle of nowhere, close to the Xiaoqing River, and is a small village on the northeast of Qiancheng County!

On a tidal flat field by the river, several farmers were clearing weeds and small shrubs along the field, and the fleet had just emerged from a distance, and they noticed it immediately. One of the farmers waved his hand, and the others put down their farming tools one after another, and quickly divided the weeds and shrubs on the ground into three piles and arranged them in a zigzag shape! Soon they set fire to three piles of weeds and bushes under the command of the peasant, but instead of a raging fire, three thick columns of smoke rose up!

"Report to the marshal, three wolf smoke signals have been found three miles ahead!"

A general, who had been standing at the bow lookout to observe, noticed three thick clouds of smoke in front of him, and immediately trotted into the cabin to report to the captain of the fleet!

It turned out that this fleet was the fleet of the Allied Army, led by Su Shang himself! After Su Shang met with Emperor Yang Guang of Sui in Loufu County, he returned to Shanyin County with his soldiers, and it was not until a few days ago that the fleet could send all the spoils of King Qin's war back to Donglai County, and then he boarded the warship to return home, and now the fleet broke into the Xiaoqing River, precisely to expand the power of the alliance and bring Beihai County into the actual scope of rule!

"Tell the fleet to dock at the Wolf Smoke! As soon as the fleet docked, the officers and men landed in full gear! Su Shang did not hesitate, and gave a loud order directly to the banner commanders!

"Yes!" The flag commander immediately climbed onto the top platform of the cabin and waved the flag in his hand quickly and rhythmically!

The main ship is very large, and it is impossible to dock at all in this place, but the Allied officers and soldiers have a way, dozens of hazy boats quickly crossed the bow of the main ship under the rocking of the soldiers, and they want to dock first, and then connect the hazy boats together, lay thick wooden planks, and form a temporary dock for the main ship to dock!

With a "bang", the small boat slowly approaching the shore hit a rotten wood soaked in the water, making a dull sound, dozens of waterfowl on the bank of the river fluttered and flew up, alarming more than a thousand birds living in the small woods on the shore, and more than a thousand birds were startled and hovered over the grove and kept chirping!

The frightened birds out of the forest did not cause any changes, and the fleet continued to dock! Soon, dozens of small boats were on the bank of the river, paving more than a dozen temporary piers about 30 zhang apart, connecting more than a dozen giant main boats with the river bank!

A group of soldiers holding war horses quickly walked on the giant main ship, carrying full equipment, quickly passed through the temporary dock, and when they came to the beach and sand on the shore, they turned over and waited in line!

The process of landing the fleet was a little slow, and after half an hour, Su Shang, who finally got off the ship, landed on the beach and sand on the shore under the escort of his own soldiers! Immediately, the fleet turned around and returned to the ship under Su Shang's wave of his hand, their mission this time has been completed, and they will continue their original voyage and send the remaining loot on the ship back to the Dengzhou naval camp!

Su Shang rode on the red war horse, urged the horse to the front of the soldier queue, and his sharp eyes scanned the entire soldier team back and forth, there were a total of 25,000 cavalry soldiers here, they were all just transferred from Donglai County, the original 25,000 soldiers who participated in King Qin's rescue, except for a few generals, all the other escort fleets returned to Donglai County!

At this time, the peasants who were emitting wolf smoke on the bank of the river walked over quickly, saluted Su Shang and said, "Hello marshal!"

Su Shang nodded, "Not bad!" You guys are doing a great job! Xia Feng! ”

"In!"

"Tell me about the situation!"

"Report to the marshal, this place is Shuidong Village, Qiancheng County, there are only a dozen families in the village, a total of seventy-five people, and they are currently under the centralized care of the brothers who have not been generalized! The county seat of Qiancheng County is fifteen miles away from here, the city is not big, the radius is five miles, the county order is Beihai Shouguang people, he does not want to take refuge in us, he has secretly colluded with the Beihai bandit leader Qi Gongshun, there are a total of 1,000 city guards in the city, the east gate is under our control, General Zhang Lihong is leading two hundred brothers, in the east gate to prepare to receive the marshal into the city! ”

"Good! Go and tell your brothers to leave with the army! Also, those villagers are frightened, remember to give them some compensation! ”

"Yes!" Xia Feng waved his right hand, and quickly turned back towards the way he came with a few more subordinates!

Su Shang looked back at the ranks of soldiers, his sharp eyes scanned back and forth, and he ordered: "The whole army is leaving!"

The sound of a low horn then sounded, echoing over the small fishing village! The 25,000 cavalry soldiers started in an instant, stepping on the rhythm of the horse's hooves, like a torrent of iron hooves, and slaughtered at high speed towards Qiancheng County!

The distance of fifteen miles is very short, and the vanguard of the cavalry team advancing at high speed only took less than three quarters of an hour to kill outside the east gate of Qiancheng County, and Zhang Lihong, who was already ready to respond in the city, commanded his brothers to open the city gate directly when they first appeared, and the cavalry team did not pause, directly through the door, and then under the leadership of their respective generals, they were divided into several teams and continued to advance at high speed towards their respective goals!

The sudden change alarmed the entire Qiancheng County, the sound of the high-speed running horses' hooves echoed in the night sky of the county, the people in the city who did not know the situation closed their doors and windows one after another, and the old and young hugged each other tremblingly, and kept praying that this was a benevolent army!

The cavalry teams passed along the streets, reaching the gates of each city at high speed, and before the city guards had time to react, they took over the four city gates, and in front of the powerful cavalry team, the city guards had no heart to resist, and surrendered one after another!

The army took over Qiancheng County smoothly, without any accidents, and it took less than half an hour for the galloping Qiancheng County to return to its former calm again, as if what happened before had never happened!

In the county office, Su Shang was sitting on the main seat, and the smooth entry of the army into the city made him feel very good!

"Marshal, this person is the county commander of Qiancheng County!" zhāngchāng escorted a middle-aged man with a pale face in!

This time the army entered the city, and zhāngchāng led the team to take charge of the county government! After the army entered the city, he led the team to the county government as soon as possible, and before the county order had made any effective response, he led the team to crash open the gate of the county government and arrested the county government family who was still in shock!

Is the overlord of the late Sui Dynasty good-looking?
