The Song Army's sailors and Manichaean sailors were fighting fiercely on the Jiangning River, so why did there be a soldier who came to Jiangzhou in the west? There was only one reason for that, they lost the battle.

Because Zhang Shun brought troops to help, the Song army's naval division was caught off guard. You know, they had the upper hand earlier. Whether it is the quality of the soldiers, the quality of the warships, or the understanding of the water conditions of the Yangtze River, Liu Menglong's department is better than the Manichaean nobles. The only drawback is that there are many of the latter.

However, the navy is a highly skilled type of troops, and the strength of the ships and the sharpness of the soldiers offset the Manichaean soldiers to a certain extent.

The latter ships were small, and the Song army ships were large; The latter ship is weak, and the Song army is strong. Just like the first battle of Huang Tiandang in the official history, the Song army occupied the light of the warship and bullied the Manichaean sailors. If it weren't for the fact that Jiangnan has always been the land of fish and rice, there are many sailors and soldiers, and there are even more civilian boats like the morning star, so that Liu Menglong is inexhaustible, then it is guaranteed that the Song army and sailors have already seized control of the north river of Jinling and completely besieged Jinling City.

But now the Manichaean sailors led by Cheng Gui, although there are many defeats and few victories, there are many reliable people and boats, and they can still protect the north river. Open a passage for Jinling City, so that the soldiers and materials from the periphery will continue to enter the city. This is a blood vessel, which is of great significance to the offensive and defensive battle of Jinling.

If so, after the Western Army was eager, it launched a strong attack on the city again and again, and then asked Liu Menglong to storm the Manichaean army's sailor camp on the north river bank of Jinling City.

As a result, when they were in the middle of the fierce battle, Zhang Shun led the Huainan Sailor and inserted a knife into the waist socket. Although the latter only had more than 4,000 people, and there were only more than 50 large and small warships, the quality of these warships was only higher than that of the Song army's warships. The sailors of his unit have been trained and adjusted for a long time, and their tactics are skillful, and they are very effective, but their combat effectiveness is not weak.

"Boom, boom, boom ......" allowed the artillery stones of the Song army on the shore to fall around, and Zhang Shun led his subordinates to kill from the downstream of Yanziji. The Bagua Continent of later generations was still only a prototype at this time. Although there are sandbars gathered, most of them are below the surface of the river. Therefore, the waterway is complicated, and the slightest carelessness of foreign ships will lead to the risk of running aground.

Zhang Shun didn't take a lot of surprises, and he killed them suddenly, which was a surprise. It is to follow the main channel. The Zhidu Mountain where the swallow rock is located, more than ten zhang high, the south is connected with the river bank, the other three sides are surrounded by the river, the terrain is very dangerous. Under the rocks, the waves beat the stones, surging, and it is an important Yangtze River ferry and a military important place. The Western Army was naturally stationed here.

But these people were also unprepared, and when they saw that a fleet of ships had suddenly been killed, they were busy organizing a bow and crossbow artillery bombardment, which only injured Zhang Shunjun a little hair. Can't stop them at all!

Dozens of warships suddenly smashed into the battlefield, as if an iron horse slammed out, arrows and crossbows and firelight were connected, and several iron streams rampaged.

In an instant, Liu Menglong felt a sullenness in his chest, and his fists clenched tightly.

Just this line, just this line. As long as he is given another hour, no, even half an hour, he can defeat the Manichaean army. But it was at this point in time that Zhang Shun was killed.

The warships carried the banner of the Liangshan Army, and the warships led by him raised a banner of generals, what else did he not understand?

Isn't this Zhang Shun's thief?

For a while, a kind of heart-piercing pain filled his heart, and he was so bored that he wanted to vomit blood.

This time, he dispatched the whole army and fought hard, but he couldn't break the water village in the north of Jinling City, and with the help of the Liangshan Army in the future, how could he break the thief soldiers again? And if this place is not broken, when will Jinling City be taken?

Liu Menglong is a veteran and thinks far-reaching. The current battle is not only the gain or loss of Jinling City, but also the general trend of the world.

In his current state, Jinling City is not broken, and Manichaeism is not declining in this year, which makes him lose confidence in the future of the Great Song Dynasty.

If this Fang La cannot be eradicated, the Song army will not be able to spare its hands to deal with the Liangshan thieves. Look at this year, Lu Qian has already been asked to pick up the Central Plains and Hebei in vain, and in the coming year, the Song army and the Fang La army will fight again, will the land thieves be able to sweep Guanzhong and Guanxi. It can also lay a foundation in the north, so that the Great Song Dynasty wants to recover Jiangbei, it is a fantasy.

"Hateful, hateful."

When Liu Menglong led the Song army back to the west, his heart only bled out, and it was difficult for the whole person to lift his spirit. If you are poured with cold water, you will be like ashes in an instant.

It's just that the Song army is in the upper reaches, and Zhang Shun is going upstream, and the speed is far from being that fast. And Liu Menglong also has a capable general, Zhang Gongyu noticed that something was wrong at the first time, so he commanded the warship to turn around, and led a part of the warship to block the sharp edge of Zhang Shun's breakthrough in time, so that although the Song army and the sailors suffered a loss, the damage was not serious.

It's just that the morale is declining, and it's too late, so they all go back to the battle.

Zhang Shun naturally would not sacrifice his life to fight for the Fang La army, and if he repelled the Song army, he would not give Manichaeism a crush. The dead and wounded soldiers were all his subordinates, and the lost ships were all his capital! Zhang Shun knows that as long as he does not do badly in the future, the Yangtze River will be his "territory" in the future.

The center of gravity of the inland water division is not in the Yellow River, let alone in the canal, but only in the Yangtze River!

At the beginning, the sailors separated, the Ruan brothers and Mingjianglong all went to the open sea, but Zhang Shun stayed in Shuibo. Later, both sides were expanding their forces, but compared to the sea, Liangshanbo was a puddle of water, and it was not small to expand to the current scale.

From that time on, Zhang Shun thought of the Yangtze River. Especially after the Western Army entered the customs, it was divided into two, and the role of Liangshanbo's defensive front support point was not brought into play at all, and he wanted the Yangtze River even more. The real place where this sailor is used is the Yangtze River!

And the Song army's naval division was defeated, and before Liu Menglong led the naval division back to the camp, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army already knew about it. After all, their camp could see the battle on the Yangtze River. In this regard, whether it is the seed master, Tan Zhen, or Liu Yanqing, they are all disappointed.

However, Zhang Shun suddenly killed from the downstream, so that they had nothing to say even to complain about Liu Menglong.

The crime of this kind of mistake lies in the Western Army, how come they are not aware of their meticulous spies? Zhang Shun, the water master, the boss, how did he get to Yanzi Jidong without knowing it?

After all, there is a Western military camp stationed there.

Liu Menglong's army suffered little losses, but its morale had fallen. As soon as they were deflated here, the western army on land also lost their strength. The planter is an expert who has been in the army for many years, and when he saw it, he led the troops to retreat. Although Liu Yanqing still led troops outside Jinling City, if he didn't fight, he wouldn't fight.

Liu Menglong also divided the department into two, one was led by himself and stayed on the front line of Taiping Prefecture; The other route was led by the deputy general Zhang Gongyu and retreated to Jiangzhou.

When the war report reached Lu Qian's hands like this, he was already in Wollongong, west of Nanyang City, and everyone sighed. In later generations, the national 4A-level cultural tourist attractions, the first historical scenic spot in southwest Henan, are now not bleak.

As we all know, when Wang Qingjun was in his heyday, he once knocked to the north to Nanyang, and Zhuge Lu in the west of the city was ruined by the rebels, and he was not a son of man. Later, the official army counterattacked, and was even more affected by the war, and the people came again afterwards, making the famous place for nearly a thousand years become miserable.

The Liangshan army was taken to Nanyang, and Lu Qian already knew that Wollongong was destroyed, but the battle was important and did not pay much attention to it. Now that the army had retreated, he had time to come here and walk around.

Looking at the current miserable scene, thinking about the famous places of Nanyang in the future, it is really two worlds.

"Bow down and die. How can such a person be humiliated by future generations? Ordered the Ministry of Rites, repaired and plastic surgery, and gave the name Wuhou Temple! ”

Where to find the prime minister's ancestral hall, Parsons outside Jinguan City, this poem by Du Gongbu has given Chengdu Wuhou Temple a free "advertisement" for more than a thousand years. Many people in later generations do not know, in addition to the degree of worship of Zhuge Liang's ancestral hall, the Wuhou Temple in Xiangyang, Nanyang also has a long history and is majestic.
