Chapter 170: Chaohu Lake, Chaohu Lake (I)
Speaking of Shou Tianwan, Huo Wu sneered and said: "I was also a hero on his side before, but I didn't expect to only use these conspiracy methods to ......" After saying that, he told everyone the news from Luyang.
The death of the old capital.
kidnapped the family members of the Luzhou prefect to blackmail Ding.
Framed Chaohu Water Master to force everyone to rebel.
When Yu Dahai heard this, his face turned pale, and his teeth clenched loudly.
The old capital is a famous general in the world, and his robes are all over the world.
This black pot is back, and the Yu and An families have no place to stand in the Daning Dynasty, so they can only oppose if they don't oppose it.
was originally born as a Maitreya bandit, and he was not afraid of rebellion in the sea, but he hated Sheng Shuangdao deeply.
"Don't be a good person!"
Yu Dahai cursed.
Eight years ago, Lao Dutong was ordered to come to Chaohu Lake to suppress bandits, and brought thousands of warships of Yangzhou Navy Division and Jinling Navy Division to drive directly into Chaohu Lake and defeat several water bandits one by one.
Yu and An were the first to recruit An.
Sheng Shuangdao is young and vigorous, acting the most ruthlessly, intercepting and killing ships, and he is a bandit wanted by the imperial court.
But everyone is an old acquaintance, Sheng Shuangdao and Yu Dahai are still sworn brothers and brothers-in-law, everyone watches and helps each other.
The Yu and An families interceded, and the old capital was the guarantor, so that the imperial court pardoned him for his guilt and recruited him into the Chaohu Water Army.
Sheng Shuangdao acted sneakily, killing the old capital in the front, plotting in the back of the Yu and An families, and living up to everyone's love for him back then......
Yu Dahai hated Sheng Shuangdao because he had a friendship before, but as for Shou Tianwan, who was eight poles away, he had nothing to say.
is not a person all the way, otherwise it would not be in vain to lobby several times in the first month.
Du Laoba, Tang Guang and others were all looking forward to fighting, as well as the subordinates of the main horse village who came with the child soldiers.
The four leaders under the command of the master of the horse village, except for the county lieutenant Zhu who is the county lieutenant in Binjiang County, the remaining three are Xiong Qianhu, Yang Qianhu, and Lu Qianhu.
Xiong Qianhu was the one who sent An Yong to Hezhou before, and this time he led the troops out.
There was also news from Chuzhou.
The third disciple has already laid down Xuyi and Hongze counties, and is recruiting troops to prepare to fight Shanyang, the seat of Chuzhou.
Huo Wu was silent for a while, and said, "San'er's side is short of manpower, and Marshal Liu of Lingshui should also move!" ”
Now let's go, it's fun.
When it comes back, the Chuzhou army must always stabilize Chuzhou.
Xiong Qianhu said: "Marshal Liu sent his nephew to bring 3,000 men and horses to Chuzhou......"
The Bozhou army in Lingshui has a total of 12,000.
At the critical time of fighting Chuzhou, Marshal Liu refused to send the main force, which was to prevent the Chuzhou army and the three disciples from becoming bigger, and eating his soldiers and horses.
Huo Wu shook his head and put these aside for now.
No matter how big Marshal Liu's name is, he is now a toothless tiger and is destined to be replaced by Tusan.
I still want to think about the battle of Chaohu first, and the soldiers on both sides are in place, but this is across the river, and we can't wait for the Luzhou soldiers to collapse due to lack of food.
"The situation in Luzhou is getting clearer, we have to prevent them from transporting people by ship, tens of thousands of new dings are pulled out of Luzhou, and it is not easy to draw ding from Luzhou again!"
The generals were eager to try, and Huo Wu also said the plan: "It can't be delayed any longer, let's not talk about the water war, and the big camp can't be negligent." The troops crossed the river and blocked the grain route of the Luzhou soldiers to prevent them from transferring grain from Shucheng, Luzhou, and Wuwei counties, especially Wuwei, which was only thirty miles away from the Beiguan camp. ”
Du Lao Ba immediately said: "Fifth brother, the eighth brother is going to fight Wuwei County......"
Tang Guang also said: "Fifth master, is it the first to attack the city, or the Luzhou camp first?" ”
"Hit the Luzhou camp!"
Huo Wu made a decision.
Time is pressing, and a quick decision is essential, and tens of thousands of soldiers cannot be cheapened.
Qichun is thousands of miles away from Luzhou, not too far.
The Daqing Army is in the "Eastern Crusade" again, and there is always a time to confront the Chuzhou Army.
Yu Dahai listened warmly, and said: "If the fifth master crosses the river, he doesn't have to cross the river from the Yuxi River, so he has to prevent the enemy from making trouble...... Why don't you go past Chaohu Lake and land just behind Beiguan......"
Huo Wu calculated the strength of Chao County in his heart.
There were 5,000 people in the Feng Monk Department, 4,000 people in the Tang Guang Department and Du Lao's Eighth Department, 3,000 people in Xiong Qianhu's department, 5,000 people in Hou Xiaoming's department, and 4,000 people on his side.
"Divide the troops, the monk and Lao Ba brought 3,000 people with Xiaoxiong from Chaohu Lake, and I and Lao Tang brought 3,000 child soldiers from the mouth of the Yuxi River to attack the Luzhou camp before and after. As for Chaoxian here, if there is a baggage, two thousand child soldiers will be left to guard it. ”
Everyone was talking lively, and they heard the chaos outside, and there was a sound of talking.
"Is it Deng Ye's voice?"
Tang Guang was puzzled.
"How can I hear movements like Seventh Brother!"
Du Laoba touched his stomach and muttered: "Count the days, Seventh Brother should come back!" ”
Huo Wu stood up and looked at the door, with a solemn look on his face.
Deng Jian is back? Is there a change in Luyang?
It's about his son, and Huo Wu cares about it.
Deng Jian, Xue Biao, An Yong and others walked in.
Huo Wu saw that Deng Jian was still looking like "the eldest in the sky, the second in the earth, and the third in the earth", his hanging heart settled, and said with a smile: "I just counted you to Luyang, why did you come back so quickly?" This sentence was said to An Yong.
An Yong hugged his fists and said: "Back to the fifth master's words, it's a shame to say that we went late and didn't make any efforts......"
Huo Wu smiled: "Why didn't you contribute?" Most of them were caught by our Deng Ye...... "Speaking of which, I have only met Deng Jian and Xue Biao.
Du Laoba, Tang Guang and others all got up.
Deng Jian said with a smile: "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life, and I successfully took Shen County and Luyang!" ”
"Good! Thank you for a great job! ”
Although Huo Wu had already received the battle report, he still felt happy when he brought up the matter again.
Deng Jian said: "Take Shen County, Shuijin and Xiaobao are the pioneers...... Taking Luyang is also the pioneer of water entry......"
Huo Wu nodded and said, "The credit of the two of them is also recorded!" I didn't expect your road to be so smooth, and we haven't started yet! ”
Deng Jian's eyes shone brightly, and the corners of his mouth curved.
He rushed over specifically for the battle of Chaohu.
This caught up, and naturally rejoiced.
Xue Biao was originally a little anxious, but when he saw this situation, his heart was down-to-earth.
In less than a month's effort, the Chuzhou army has taken the entire territory of Hezhou, half of Luzhou, and won the Chaohu Water Division, which is no longer the momentum it used to be.
"Seventh?"
Huo Wu finally looked at Xue Biao, and saw that he was not as calm and calm as usual, and accepted the smile on his face: "What's wrong?" Has Hangzhou changed? ”
"Shou Tianwan's Daqing Army took Qiantang at the end of August, and the younger brother did not dare to delay, urging people to go out of Hangzhou, and got the news two days later...... Hangzhou City Breaks ......"
There was silence.
Hangzhou is an important place in the south of the Yangtze River and the seat of the east province of the south of the Yangtze River.
This is the destruction of the city.
Qi Chun went to Hangzhou for 1,200 miles, and more than a dozen state capitals were all defeated?
"When passing through Suzhou, the defenders of Jiangnan West Road were already regrouping...... The movement is too loud, and Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian will all transfer officers and soldiers over! ”
Xue Biao said: "Even from Jinling, there is also news that troops will be transferred to Hangzhou to suppress bandits!" ”
Huo Wu narrowed his eyes.
The battle line of the Daqing army was stretched too long and expanded too fast.
The Chuzhou army rested for two months before daring to move Hezhou.
If it weren't for the change in Chaohu, it would be a month or two before Hezhou would be stabilized.
As for crossing the river to take peace, it is only in the plan, and the time has not yet been finalized.
But in front of us, it is the best opportunity.
His breathing grew heavy.
The leaders of the Chuzhou army also had excitement on their faces.
Seeing the sea, An Yong and the others were confused.
Is this happy for the Daqing Army?
Everyone is nominally Maitreya, but they are not a force.
The two looked at each other, rather uneasy.
If the Daqing Army and the Chuzhou Army negotiate peace, then their Chaohu Water Army will sit in the middle.
Huo Wu had already laughed out loud "haha": "What a godsend!" ”
Tang Guang echoed: "Yes, I thought about the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses around Jinling before, even if I beat it down, it would be difficult to defend it...... Unexpectedly, the Daqing army has already connected the states, and now the imperial court has transferred troops to 'recover' Hangzhou, which is a good time for us to take Jinling! ”
Du Laoba and Monk Feng also nodded in agreement.
It was Xue Biao, and his face also had a look on his face.
Who wouldn't want to return home.
Everyone here is the one who is most looking forward to fighting Jinling.
The foundation that has been in business for more than ten years has been destroyed in one day, even if it has not hurt the fundamentals, he is unwilling.
It is......
"Fifth brother, along the way of the Daqing Army, they divided the grain and land, and when they attacked Qiantang, they only recruited more than 100,000 horses and ......horses from the Western Army."
"What's that? On the opposite side of the Luzhou camp, 40,000 soldiers are waiting for us to get ...... Take these 40,000 people, our Chuzhou army is also 80,000 horses, plus 20,000 new soldiers levied by Chuzhou and Hezhou, plus 20,000 people from the water division...... More than 100,000 soldiers crossing the river are enough......"
Huo Wu is very bold.
Xue Biao listened, and became excited, and hurriedly said: "I heard that the fifth brother is in Luzhou, and the ordnance transported back this time was not unloaded at Binjiang, but directly pulled down the Yuxi estuary, and was ...... with the civilian boat requisitioned by the fifth brother."
"Okay, the seventh brings good news! We're really going to have to do it quickly! ”
Looking at Deng Jian's appearance that he couldn't sit still, Huo Wu still didn't understand, and asked: "Previously, the soldiers were divided into two routes, one way from the mouth of the Yuxi River to the other bank, all the way from Chaohu Lake, and the two ways outflanked the Luzhou battalion...... You see, which way do you go? ”
It was Deng Jian who was in charge of Hezhou before, and Deng Jian made a great contribution to Luzhou this time, but Huo Wu was not good to let him be the main general again, so he always had to share the credit.
"Chaohu this way!"
Deng Jian said without hesitation.
Huo Wuzheng said: "The road is fast in the past, but don't move lightly in the past, or wait for this road to go over and fight...... 40,000 Luzhou soldiers, striving to annihilate the prisoners, if they really want to be defeated, that half of Luzhou is not peaceful......"
Luzhou is the Chuzhou army, if it is ruined, the loss is also heart-wrenching.
"Fifth brother, don't worry, I know how to measure!" Deng Jian also replied solemnly.
Huo Wu nodded: "Okay, then you will go all the way with the monk and the eighth child, and you will go over this afternoon......" Speaking of this, he looked at Yu Dahai and An Yong: "Go south to the mouth of the Yuxi River tonight, cross the river early tomorrow morning, and fight by water tomorrow night, I don't know what the two generals think?" Will it be too time-sensitive? ”
Yu Dahai and An Yong had already heard excitedly.
Before, it was because the official ship blocked the exit of Chaohu Lake, and the Chaohu Lake sailors rushed out, and it was inevitable that they would suffer heavy losses.
Now you can go north from the mouth of the Yuxi River, and the official boat blocked at the mouth of Chaohu Lake is wrapped in dumplings.
The offense and defense are exchanged, and the Chaohu Water Division has a way to live.
"Listen to the arrangement of the fifth master, five hundred warships are on the edge of Chaohu Lake, and you can transport troops across the lake!" An Yongdao.
Yu Dahai said: "I will take five thousand sailors to the mouth of the Yuxi River with the fifth master!" Take over the civilian ship! ”
The eldest brother and sister-in-law also had a tacit understanding, and they divided the task in an instant.
Shui Zhan Huo Wu was a layman, so he refused to point fingers, and only said: "Then it's decided......"
Before the words fell, Niu Qing came in with a post, with a strange expression, and said: "Fifth master, the envoy from the Luzhou camp on the other side has sent a post over......"
Huo Wu was surprised, took the post, and said casually: "What does this prefect want to do?" ”
After reading the post, Huo Wu smiled and said: "Originally, I was worried that the movement was too big and scared away the prefect of Luzhou...... Don't worry about it now, this is a post from the nephew of the Shou Protector, I want to come and visit, we really welcome it......"
At this time, this nephew of the emperor of Daqing, showing his banner, what do you want to do?
Make a brand for the Chaohu Water Division and let the Chuzhou Army retreat?
It's funny.
