863 Avoid it
However, Zhu Yihai and Zhang Huangyan believed that Zhoushan was a very suitable and extremely important anti-Qing base in Jiangnan, and they could greatly contain the Jiangnan garrison of the Qing court centered on Nanjing, so Zheng Chenggong stepped up the construction of river ships here, under the premise of Zhu Yihai's acquiescence, and then led this fleet up the river alone to support the central station.
Not only that, but he also brought the state seal of Emperor Longwu with him on this trip, which he wanted to hand over to the new monarch.
When Tianlang was ready to strike the final blow and pull out the nail of Zilharang, he came, he was dressed in plain clothes, wearing stars and moons, overcoming thorns and thorns, and he led a huge fleet of a thousand warships, burning with a heart full of flames, to Wuchang City.
In the afternoon of this day, the Tianlang reinforcements arrived at the foot of Wuchang City, and from a distance, there were countless cloud ladders on top of a stretching fortified city, and the gunpowder smoke was filled above the city.
Wuchang waved the flag, and the shouts of killing echoed in all directions.
Visually zooming in, it is a ten-mile company camp composed of Li Dingguo's 100,000 imperial camp front army and Chen Youlong's 120,000 army, which have long been arranged here.
"Wow, this scene... It's spectacular! ”
The spectacular scene made Sun Miao, who poked her head out of the carriage curiously, forget that she was close to the battlefield, and she held the fluffy little rabbit in her arms, with a mouth long enough to fit an egg.
"Marshal, are we going to kick up smoke and dust all the way and grow stronger and lead the army into the camp?"
Deng Kai was also in high spirits at the moment, looking at this scene with a proud face, he followed Tianlang to fight many long battles, and all along, every battle that Tianlang participated in also had him, but this time, it was Tianlang who wanted to lead them to attack a fortified city for the first time.
Wuchang is an important fortress to control the entire Central China region, where it can block the upper and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, attack the Central Plains in the north, and point to the southwest.
Tracing the river up to break through Xiangyang can step into Sichuan and Shaanxi, and down the river to occupy Jiujiang can enter Nanjing, and the strategic position is beyond doubt.
The Qing army also deployed heavy troops in this place, and the auxiliary uncle Wang Jierharang guarded Hanyang, and the king of Shuncheng County, Le Kedehun, personally sat in Wuchang.
Therefore, to be able to participate in such a siege battle that is related to the direction of the emperor's national fortunes, Deng Kai said that he was very excited in his heart.
Tianlang smiled faintly, raised his horsewhip and pointed forward, "Rest in place, set up a guard, Deng Kai, you go and invite Li Rujing here, I need to interview him first, understand the situation, and then decide whether to enter the battlefield generously or quietly." ”
"Whoa!" Deng Kai first went to set up a guard, and then rode his horse to the front company camp.
Tianlang was lazily riding on a horse, with Shi Changge beside him, and even Lu Yixing came to join in the fun.
"It's the first time you've come to the battlefield, right?" The topic of Tianlang seems to be very homely, maybe it is to relieve their pressure.
Lu Yixing didn't wait for an answer, Shi Changge raised his embroidered eyebrows and said, "Why does the general only ask him and not me?" ”
Tianlang smiled, "Hehe, didn't you say it, there are people with masks everywhere in the world, you, and I, are not exempt from vulgarity, it seems that this kind of bloody scene, you have seen it." ”
Shi Changge fell silent, the casual smile on his face disappeared, and he muttered, "Yes, I've seen it, and the scene is a thousand times bloodier than this." ”
"Oh, then I'd be interested in taking a guess when I'm bored."
"Is it just when you're bored? It is my people who suffer blood. ”
"Long song," Lu Yixing interrupted, "Why are you playing tricks on General Qin again?" ”
"Me!" Shi Changge was speechless and choked.
"Changge, General Qin is a soldier, and the excellent trait of a soldier is calmness, so his calmness is right, you can't blame him for this, besides, do you think that you are the only one who has experienced the pain of war?"
Shi Changge and Tianlang both looked at Lu Yixing curiously, and found that since he came to the battlefield, his whole person's aura had changed, and this was also the first time he refuted Shi Changge's words.
Just look at him riding a war horse, looking at the direction of the battlefield with his head held high, and his heart is surging and undulating like a river and a sea, not at all like a weak Confucian student.
Even Ding Xue and Sun Miao in the carriage were looking at him cautiously, but he suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly.
"When the Eight Banners entered the customs, my father rushed to the aid of the line of fire in sackcloth and white nets, but he encountered tens of thousands of the main force of the Eight Banners with thousands of Tianxiong Army. My father never flinched, he was alone, he led the army to fight, the artillery was exhausted, and then he fought with his bare hands, and was killed by four arrows and three blades. I won't say which is right or wrong, the most ridiculous thing is that I Lu Yixing humiliated my ancestors, my father wore filial piety clothes into the battlefield, but I came to Wuchang with a team to send relatives, Changge, if you want to blame, you should scold me fiercely, it is me Lu Yixing who is incompetent. ”
"Tianyu, what are you talking about, if it weren't for the reason of sending off your relatives, you wouldn't have had a chance to come to the battlefield at all, if you want me to scold you, I will only scold you for not knowing life or death!"
"I don't have to worry about the life and death of Lu Yixing, a good man just wants to spill blood on the battlefield, although I don't have an elite army like the Tianxiong Army, but there are also two hundred and twenty warriors who are not afraid of death!"
Tianlang swallowed, he didn't say what he really wanted to say, but there was a voice in his heart telling him, "Everyone has the right to choose their own life, even if you are the emperor, all you have to do is respect." ”
Tianlang took a deep breath, well, if possible, give him a chance.
On the winding road ahead, two fast horses appeared, one was Deng Kai, and beside him was a silver-armored and white-robed general.
Tianlang asked Li Dingguo to see him, it was not surprising, and the behavior was also very ordinary, Li Dingguo also knew that he had made a mistake because of arrogance, and Tianlang's summoning was actually a small temptation to promote the trust of the monarch and ministers before the war.
So he rode alone, like a mighty silver whirlwind.
"Tianyu, General Qin wants to discuss military affairs with General Li, let's avoid it."
Shi Changge said to Lu Yixing, Tianlang looked back at him and said: "Changge stay, there should be a task to be assigned to you later, and don't forget, Wei Zheng, who wants to be a Ming Dynasty, will not be wrong when he sees the legendary general Li Rujing, oh, by the way, Tianyu will take the two girls down to rest for a while." ”
Shi Changge was also very surprised, he was just a small head of a thousand households, and he scolded him just now, but he wanted to give the first task to himself, this person, why did he always wonder what he was thinking?
And he didn't seem to have promised to do anything Wei Zheng?
"Rujing is here, it's really hard to fight abroad for so long."
"Wechen has seen the emperor."
Li Dingguo dismounted and bowed, and then... And then it was cold.
Tianlang frowned and looked at Deng Kai, Deng Kai shrugged, he was helpless, he told Li Dingguo not to expose Tianlang's true identity, but Li Dingguo didn't listen to him at all.
