【Broadcast】Pay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
Wuchang West, such as the shuttle Wuchang naval warship set sail from Fanhu Lake and marched north along the Fanshui River, out of Fankou Water Village in front of the Yangtze River, and to the river is their world, those attacking Zhou Navy do not want to be rampant and landed on the shore of the people and horses do not want to go back.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, as few of the warships of the northern crossing of the king of Shixing Chen Shuling escaped, most of them were burned in Jiangbei, and most of the sailor soldiers accompanying the ship were unknown in life and death, and this fiasco made the sailor soldiers who are now about to fight feel concerned.
My father, brother, husband, and son went out after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner but never returned.
So today they want to take revenge, to avenge the dead comrades, neighbors and those poor people whose families are broken, and the pain of Chen Guoshuijun and the soldiers' families on Chinese New Year's Eve is to be inflicted on the families of the soldiers of the Zhou State today.
Lu Xiulin is one of them, as a member of the Lu clan in Wuchang on the south bank instead of Bahe City on the north bank that night, he narrowly escaped, after that night he lost his father Lu Rongjia, younger brother Lu Xiuqi and many clansmen, and the younger brother Lu Xiuping, who was going to take the Lu family on the broad avenue in the future, was also caught by the thief Yuwenwen and showed his head to the public.
As his father's eldest son, his qualifications are not as good as his younger brother Lu Xiuping, so the position of the patriarch is not his turn, but Lu Xiulin doesn't care, because his younger brother's talent is indeed above him, and the Lu family wants to cooperate with the plan of Chen Shuling, the king of Shixing, although he has doubts, but in the end he still supports it, because as long as they pass this level, the Lu family will have a chance to go to the next level.
Of course, the ancestral foundation is important, but it is not comparable to the future of the present generation, and the king of Shixing set aside a large piece of land in Wuchang to compensate the Lu family, and promised an official position to give the Lu family the opportunity to climb up. I saw that I was close to that step, but I couldn't take it.
Lu is finished. On Chinese New Year's Eve, he was attacked by the sudden Zhou family tribe, and the other party took the opportunity to seize Bahe City. Except for a few clansmen who ran fast and had good luck, rowed a few boats to cross the river and headed south, the other clansmen all fell into the clutches of the other party.
The father was killed on the spot and the younger brother Lu Xiuqi also died in the chaos, some of the clan elders died in the chaos, some were arrested and put in state prisons and then beheaded, the family property was confiscated, the fields were all confiscated, and the future patriarch Lu Xiuping was tortured and humiliated by the so-called public trial, and finally was beheaded by the public.
That night, according to his father's request, he crossed the river to Wuchang first with some valuables to settle down, and this is how Lu Xiulin escaped, thinking that no matter whether it was successful that night or not, Lu Shi could get out of the whole body, but what he was waiting for was a heart-rending pain.
The clansmen who escaped in a hurry cried like rain of tears and told how their relatives were killed, and Lu Xiulin only hated that he couldn't swallow the evil thief Yuwen Wen alive. Lu Shi has suffered this accident is at the end of the road, and he, the eldest son, must take responsibility.
Wuchang's real estate is in his hands, but most of the casualties of the clansmen are not able to return to heaven with more than a dozen people under his hands, and Chen Shuling, the king of Shixing, is dead, no one covers him, I am afraid that he will not be able to hold these fields, so he will take some of them to the local officials in exchange for protection, and get an official and a half position in the army.
Now Lu Xiulin is the team leader of the Wuchang Navy and is in charge of two warships, and he knows that he is guarding against the southern attack of the Zhou army on the opposite side, so he is holding back his strength to make meritorious contributions in the big war that will start sooner or later.
Wuchang is a bait to let the thief on the other side swallow it, and now the other party is really coming to swallow it, Lu Xiulin heard the order of the official to order the naval army to fight, and he was so excited that he burst into tears, and he thought that he would not start the war until after the autumn, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.
"Yuwenwen, if you dare to come to the south bank, it will be the point of no return!!"
The Fanshui River was meandering, the warships were head to tail, and they were moving north in turn, and suddenly the fleet stopped, Lu Xiulin stood at the bow of the boat, looked forward, but couldn't see why, the water surface was gradually blocked, and the front couldn't walk, but the warships behind squeezed up, and in the end, they couldn't move.
"What's going on? Could it be that you won't attack for the time being? Lu Xiulin looked at the battleship in front of him and muttered something strange......
Wuchang City West Fan Mountain, the camp is a mess. Laihu'er took off the hood, looking at the breach at the top, and his heart palpitated, just now he was cut down by a dying Chen soldier on the head with a knife, and he couldn't dodge, but fortunately there was an iron pocket to carry, otherwise he would have been explained here.
Look at the sleeve armor on the body, it is also scarred, and there are two holes, which are shocking. If it weren't for the double armor I was wearing, I'm afraid this breach would have turned into a bloody wound.
"Team Master! Fan Shanshu was taken, and none of the defenders ran away!! ”
Lai Hu'er looked at the soldier who reported loudly, nodded with a smile, and then ordered to act according to the plan, he led his subordinates to squat in the Fan Mountain woods all night, and suddenly made a mistake early this morning, blocking the Fan Mountain garrison in the camp, and a bloody battle came.
In the past few months, Wuchangcheng, Fan Shanshu and even Yanji have secretly come to scout with their subordinates many times, and the drawn graphics have become models and listed in the barracks for everyone to study all day long, and now taking Fan Shanshu is just one of the steps.
Three teams with a total of 300 Tiger Lin Army against 600 Chen Army, the result of the battle was one-sided, in the battle, their own side killed 10 people, the opponent died 400, surrendered except for a few important live mouths, the rest of the throat was cut, Lai Hu'er was dealing with a guard when a subordinate almost overturned in the gutter, the rest of the time was three knives.
"Hurry up and check, clean up the camp, and bandage the wounded!"
"According to the plan, where to guard, where to guard, after a while, Chen Jun will find out that something is wrong, and he will have to fight!"
All the responses are well remembered, the soldiers don't need to come to Hu'er to say too much to carry on smoothly, the attack on Fan Shanshu three teams led by him, the team leader, three hundred elite soldiers with intact camps to carry the Chen army's counterattack is more than enough.
It is impossible for the defenders of Wuchang to come, as for the reinforcements from other places, it is not their turn to come and worry about Hu'er, they quietly touched into the camp, and the other party didn't even have time to warn, so Wuchang City didn't know that Fan Shanshu was lost.
On the lookout, Lai Hu'er took out the clairvoyant mirror handed over to him by Yuwenwen and looked at Wuchang City to the east, and saw the panorama of the city clearly, beside him, a soldier took out a large white cloth and hung it on the north side, and after a while, Hu'er looked at Xiyang City in the north of the river with a clairvoyant mirror, but saw a big red curtain erected at the head of the city.
'What a magical clairvoyant. Laihu'er thought. He took his eyes off the clairglass, and looked again, where he could still see the red curtain at the head of Xiyang City. According to the previous exercises, he knew that the curtain was twice the size of the gate.
The white cloth hanging on the watchtower is not that big, but Xiyang City can see it, because there is a larger clairvoyant mirror there. He also saw it when everyone took turns to see it, and through the clairvoyant mirror, he could see what color clothes the Chen soldiers on duty in Xiyang City could see what color clothes they were wearing.
If it is not inconvenient to carry, if there is that large clairvoyant mirror placed here, then Laihu'er can see the situation in the city clearly, with this large and small clairvoyant mirror, plus the agreed flag color, Laihu'er can convey the situation observed by Fan Shanshu to Xiyang City, and Xiyang City can also give orders to them.
Then they put up various banners on the watchtower, so the generals under Wuchang City observed Fan Shanshu with a clairvoyant mirror to know what the order under Xiyang City was. On the contrary, they could also send the situation they were facing to Fan Shanshu to Lai Hu'er according to a few simple banners, and then transfer it to Xiyang City.
"Team leader, there's movement on the other side of Fan Shui!!" A soldier shouted, he was also holding a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, but he was observing the direction of Fan Shui on the west side of Fanshan, and when Laihu'er heard this, he turned around and looked at it with a clairvoyant mirror, and then ordered a signal.
The soldier who had hung the white cloth hurriedly took out a half-black and half-white cloth from the package next to him and hung it on the east side of the watchtower. This is also a pre-determined signal, in order to inform the friendly forces outside Wuchang City of the situation on Fan Shui's side.
The deputy of the team who came to Hu'er climbed upstairs to take over the signal communication of the soldiers in his place, and this watchtower of Fan Shanshu could observe the situation in the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest, which was originally used as an early warning, but now it was used by the Zhou army to send news.
"The clairvoyant mirror should be taken well, and the lanyard should be put around the neck so as not to fall downstairs and break."
"What situation and what signal to send must be clear, don't make a mistake, if you can't remember, look at the schematic diagram, the schematic diagram must be taken well, don't let the wind blow away!"
Lai Hu'er carefully explained before going down the watchtower, some soldiers in the camp have changed into Chen Jun's uniforms and are ready to come to a 'different appearance', the defenders of Wuchang City may think that the primary target of the Zhou army will be the city, but they will never think that the first to lose is close at hand, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
They hung cloth on the watchtower, if they could see it with a clairvoyant mirror, but they couldn't see it with the naked eye, with this magic weapon, Zhou Jun was sending a signal under the noses of the defenders of Wuchang, and he was not afraid of the other party's detection.
The beacon tower on Fan Shan Shu is an important place to warn to the west of Wuchang, and it is no longer up to Wuchang Taishou to decide what signal to put from now on......
"Fan Shanshu took it, and they signaled that Fan Shui was worry-free." Fifth Brother Chen, the military master, said as he looked at the top of Fan Mountain with a clairvoyant mirror. The generals around him were overjoyed when they heard this, and Tian Zhengyue, the owner of the building, took the clairvoyant mirror handed over by Fifth Brother Chen and looked at the top of Fan Mountain, and nodded.
Behind them is the Yangtze River. Several improvised trestles had begun to take shape, and the warships transporting the army across the river were lined up on the shore, and some soldiers had already disembarked but most of them were still sitting on the boats.
"If that's the case, then go ahead with the plan." After Chen Wudi finished speaking, he blew his whistle, and the warships by the river heard the sound and rowed upstream with soldiers offshore.
The soldiers who came ashore first had already carried rows of wooden fences and materials such as bamboo and wood from some ships carrying goods, including bamboo with sharpened ends, simple horses that had been prepared, and dense iron nails in the shape of "doors".
The soldiers skillfully erected these things in the clearing, and soon a simple camp with a watchtower appeared in the clearing, and some soldiers took out their shovels and dug a trench outside the camp.
The sharpened bamboos were made into antlers of various kinds, placed on the outside of the fence and in vital places, and inside the fence was fastened with a wooden top of the junction at every interval, and nailed with a nail.
"It's good that I rehearsed it a few times beforehand, otherwise it wouldn't have been possible to build so many things so quickly."
Tian Zhengyue looked at this simple camp and exclaimed, with this stronghold, they can guard the riverside plank road, and they can block the official road coming from the east to prevent the Yangxin Chen army that may come.
As for Wuchang City, which is close at hand, they will die by themselves.
