Shi Lang of Linshanwei was very depressed.

When he left Guanhaiwei, he repeatedly instructed his uncle to give blessings, once there was a police, he must stick to Guanhaiwei, and he must not go out of the city to fight in the field, waiting for the return of Linshanwei.

How do you know that Shi Fu was worried that Guanhaiwei, which had been run by the Shi family's uncle and nephew for three years, would be attacked, and whimsically wanted to defend the enemy outside of Guanhaiwei, so he sent 2,000 people to leave the village between Guanhaiwei and Ningbo City. The two uncles and nephews broke up unhappily because of this, after all, Shi Fu was the commander of the Chinese army, and he couldn't help Shi Fu's decision.

Two days ago, when Shi Lang received the news that Guanhaiwei was attacked by Fang Yuan, he immediately led the army back to help, and just halfway to the news that Guanhaiwei had fallen, he could only return to Linshanwei and decide where to go next.

Guanhaiwei has been lost, and Linshanwei is already a mortal place without backup, and must be evacuated as soon as possible.

The evacuation route on land has been completely cut off, and it is impossible to avoid the pursuit of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry by land. The only way is to take a warship through the river channel of Linshanwei to Hangzhou Bay, retreat to Hangzhou Bay, and then go south through the Dahai.

When the Zheng army of Linshanwei was preparing to retreat, an alarm came again, and the infantry battalion and artillery battalion of the Xuanjia Army from Hangzhou Mansion had arrived in Linshanwei.

Shi Lang was not worried that this Xuanjia army would attack Linshanwei, because when the Xuanjia army attacked Linshanwei, he could lead the water division to break through from the river and shell the Xuanjia army from the flank, at least he could inflict another heavy blow on the Xuanjia army.

If the Xuanjia army attacks the Zheng army's naval division, Linshanwei's artillery can also give the Xuanjia army a heavy blow.

This is Shi Lang's defensive strategy of thinking that he is foolproof and sniping at the Xuanjia Army.

But to Shi Lang's horror, his wishful thinking did not start, and the Xuanjia army arrived at Linshanwei and did not adopt the strategy of attacking Linshanwei, but slowly camped on the high ground on the side of the river from Linshanwei to Hangzhou Bay.

Although Shi Lang was only twenty-four years old, he entered the barracks at the age of seventeen, and he was already a veteran of the battlefield who had commanded countless wars, and he knew at a glance that the purpose of this Xuanjia army was not to attack Linshanwei, but to cut off the route of Linshanwei's 5,000 Zheng troops to escape to Hangzhou Bay.

There are only ten battleships of the Zheng family in Linshanwei, each of these ten warships can carry 500 soldiers, if you want to break into the artillery array of the Xuanjia Army, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses, even if a few can break through the blockade of the artillery array of the Xuanjia Army and escape to Hangzhou Bay, it will not be able to carry 5,000 Zheng troops.

Fighting is like playing chess, and Fang Yuan's son has hit Shi Lang's seven inches.

If Guanhaiwei is not lost, the Xuanjia army is so tossed, but it is just a waste of military food. But Guanhaiwei has been lost, Linshanwei's military rations can only last for a month at most, and the Xuanjia army will be consumed like this, and the first to collapse must be Zheng Jun.

Shi Lang could only choose to attack helplessly, and the first target of his attack was the artillery battalion of the Xuanjia Army on the high ground.

But the artillery battalion is guarded by a well-equipped infantry battalion, and its combat power is higher than that of the Zheng army, coupled with its condescending position and artillery cover, how can it be broken by the Zheng army?

The Zheng army attacked for two days and two nights, and more than ten attacks were all repulsed, and they didn't even touch the edge of the fortifications. Shi Lang saw that he couldn't attack hard, so he could only choose to give up, and after leaving behind hundreds of corpses, he retreated back to Linshanwei in a hurry.

The Xuanjia army on the high ground did not pursue, but only stuck to the position of their own army and continued to trap the Zheng army in Linshanwei.

The two sides were in such a stalemate for ten days, and did not launch another offensive, and the military rations of Linshanwei were gradually decreasing, and if they did not think about it again, even if they fled to Hangzhou Bay, the military rations of the guards who went south to Haimen were not enough.

Shi Lang was forced to have no choice but to concentrate all the warships and start to break through to the river, and as many Zheng troops could escape! It's better than the end of the whole army trapped in Linshanwei.

More than a dozen Zheng warships began to break through to the river, and as expected, at least 50 artillery pieces of the artillery battalion on the high ground shelled together, causing the Zheng warships in the river to fly sawdust and fire.

The Zheng battleships also returned fire at the artillery positions, but they were painless and could not stop the strong fire of the artillery battalion at all.

Shi Lang desperately lost four battleships, and finally three battleships successfully escaped the range of the artillery battalion, only to find that at least fifty hovering 'strange birds' suddenly appeared in the sky.

This kind of 'strange bird' Shi Lang has heard of, and it is the sharp weapon of the Xuanjia Army, which has annihilated thousands of Liangshan Liukou.

In the river battlefield, the 'strange bird' exerted great power, constantly throwing things that can explode in the water, and the entire river was already full of fire dragons, and the three warships that had just escaped from the artillery battalion were swallowed by the fire dragon before they had time to rejoice.

Zheng Jun on the battleship was burned to death, jumped into the river and was blown up, and countless people were killed.

As a result, the route of the river that broke into Hangzhou Bay was completely blocked, and Shi Lang could only retreat to Linshanwei with the only two remaining warships in embarrassment.

The two warships had not yet sailed back to Linshanwei, but they had already found that the bottom of the ship had begun to leak, needless to say, it was quietly chiseled through the bottom of the ship by the Xuanjia military camp and completely scrapped.

Shi Lang saw that the two warships had gradually sunk, so he could only get off the battleships and withdraw to Linshanwei by land.

Just before arriving at the Linshan Guard Acropolis, he found that the city had already changed the banner of the Xuanjia Army, and Fang Yuan was standing at the top of the wall, showing a victorious smile at him. It turned out that the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, who had not shown up for a long time, had taken advantage of the Zheng army to break through to the river and occupied Linshanwei.

This time, the five battalions of the Xuanjia Army showed their own magical powers, using the terrain to work together, and Shi Lang lost the slightest temper and lost in a mess.

Shi Lang counted the casualties, 5,000 Zheng troops, and now there are less than 1,000 people with Shi Lang. All the ships were destroyed, and there were no food supplies.

The route to the north has been completely cut off, and Shi Lang can only choose to enter the Siming Mountains and retreat south along the mountain road to avoid the pursuit of the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry.

Chigutai, who was standing at the head of the Linshan Guard, saw that Shi Lang had led the remnants of the army to withdraw, and he was so anxious that he shouted, "Fang Junmen, immediately send the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to attack, and the Zheng army can be completely annihilated in less than an hour!" ”

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "No, I want to keep Shi Lang, this Zheng army can't be annihilated, I have a big use in keeping it." ”

Chigutai was puzzled and said, "Capture Shi Lang alive, I can still understand, what is the big use of keeping this Zheng army?" ”

What kind of grand strategy can this big boss who only knows battlefield fighting understand? Fang Yuan could only explain to him a little, "Zhejiang is not Zheng Zhilong's base, and there are not a few state capitals colluding with Zheng Zhilong, I just want to see which state capital dares to support Shi Lang's Zheng army." ”

Chigutai was still puzzled by the second monk when he heard this, but he also knew that this kind of military and political strategy was too complicated for him, so he didn't ask anymore.

Fang Yuan ordered Chigutai to lead a thousand-strong Xuanjia iron cavalry to hang behind Shi Lang's Zheng army, but he went to join the artillery battalion and infantry battalion.

He integrated the 6,000 Xuanjia troops on the spot, left 3,000 for Su Hongyu, recruited local people, and collected a large number of materials captured by Linshanwei and Guanhaiwei in Suzhou Prefecture.

The remaining 3,000 men were led by Li Zongze and followed Fang Yuan to continue to pursue Shi Lang's fleeing Zheng army.

Li Zongze also couldn't understand Fang Yuan's intention of chasing Shi Lang in a circle in Zhejiang, Su Hongyu had already said suddenly, "The boss wants to use the reason for chasing the remnants of the Zheng family to explore the marching terrain of the entire Zhejiang Buzheng Division, and then test and probe which state capitals of the Zhejiang Buzheng Division are colluding with the Zheng family, and which state capitals are Mingzhe to protect themselves." By the way, the destruction of several more state capitals in collusion with the Zheng family can be regarded as a deterrent to the Zhejiang Political Division. ”

"Of course, the final destination of Shi Lang's escape is still the sea guards, and by the way, the Zheng family's sea guards will be wiped out."

Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, and then laughed and said, "It's still Sister Su who understands me, and it is estimated that Liang Hongyu back then did not have Sister Su's vision and knowledge." ”

Li Zongze came back to his senses after being reminded by Su Hongyu, "I understand, Fang Junmen is preparing for the annexation of Zhejiang Buzheng in the future!" ”

He blurted out Fang Yuan's grand strategy so bluntly, Fang Yuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Zong Ze, can you not be so straight, our Xuanjia Army is obviously hanging the people!" ”

Annihilate this Zheng army and capture Shi Lang alive, Fang Yuan ordered the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to attack immediately. However, this time the opportunity to march in Zhejiang is rare, and it is absolutely impossible to give up hastily in order to annihilate a few Zheng troops.

Haimen Guard, which must be destroyed, took the Zheng family's two naval bases in Zhejiang, and Zheng Zhilong's naval division went north from Fujian, and wanted to reach Suzhou Mansion, which was a front of one or two thousand miles.

The task arrangement has been completed, Su Hongyu led 3,000 Xuanjia troops, continued to stay in Linshanwei, and hired people to transport all the materials of Linshanwei and Guanhaiwei back to Suzhou Mansion.

Fang Yuan, Chigutai and Li Zongze, led the strong 3,000 Xuanjia Army, pulled sufficient logistical supplies, and began to pursue Shi Lang's fleeing remnants like fishing.

Shi Lang! I think you'll be able to escape to the edge of the sky this time?!
