The cold wind was blowing, and the rain was blowing in the face.

Although the rain is getting heavier and heavier, but the mouth of the five rivers is already full of people, the war drums are beating loudly, countless town naval non-commissioned officers hurriedly run out of the camp tent, and through the tinkering and intact wall, you can faintly see the black figure getting closer and closer in the wind and rain.

"Lead people to resist, the Mongolian Tartars will definitely not only have foot soldiers, nine times out of ten they will still have the same rules as during the day, and there may be cavalry to kill them later." Zhang Shijie patted Wang Dayong on the shoulder, "If there is anything that is not enough, just tell so-and-so, the sailor is difficult to protect himself now, and we can only rely on ourselves!" You Wang Dayong remember that unless people die here, they will lose the defense line and come to see you! ”

"Yu Hou rest assured!" The expression on Wang Dayong's face became more and more hideous, and he almost roared, and immediately beckoned the guards to run towards the wall.

And Zhang Shijie turned his head worriedly and stared at the sailor, he knew very well that in such a storm, the real danger was not Wang Dayong's side, but the sailor on Huaishui. Once the Huaishui Navy Division is broken through, then it is equivalent to cutting off the back road of the town navy, in this dim wind and rain, Zhang Shijie asked himself if he had the ability to bring the town navy back safely.

The wind and rain are getting bigger and bigger, the Huai River is like a truncated heavenly river, tumbling and roaring from the nine heavens, the turbid waves are surging, and the huge logs are scattered on the water surface, but it is enough to be able to move forward along the Huai River.

Zhang Shijie has realized something, the spring rain is big, and the spring water is rising, but a spring rain cannot make Huaishui suddenly become like this, Zhang Shijie also walked out step by step in Lianghuai, where can I not know the situation of Lianghuai. The only plausible explanation is that the Mongol Tatars had already prepared for this, and had already blocked the flow of water at various tributaries in the upper reaches of the Huai River, so that a certain amount of water could be hoarded, and then the water would be released suddenly, so that the logs could be rushed down the river as fast as possible.

It's just that I didn't expect that it was raining heavily, and it was really a heavenly help for Mongolian Tartars.

One by one, the logs hit the outer several Mengchong along the water, and the smaller Mengchong was hit so hard, most of them began to shake violently, and even the side of the ship was already low below the water, and the surging water rushed into the boat, and the sailors and soldiers did not have time to care about more and more logs appearing in sight, and desperately scooped the water out of the boat.

"Quick, Kai Ika, all the warships are scattered on the water, scattered!" The rain flowed down Zhang Shun's cheeks, and Zhang Shun was holding a sword in his hand and roaring angrily. It was dark and the rain was pouring down, and for a moment the only orders could be heard by the adjacent warships.

The wind roared, the rain was blowing, and all the shouts were in vain, but fortunately, the Zhenjiang Prefecture sailors were also well-trained, so although they did not receive orders, most of the warships began to start, and hundreds of soldiers were already shaking the oars desperately, just to be able not to be pushed downstream by the rolling river.

"We have no other choice now, the Mongol Tartars have calculated it," a commander rushed over in the rain, "General, hurry up and give the order, go straight down the river, it's a big deal to find a harbor, let go of those damn logs, and we'll rush back again." ”

"The Mongolian Tartars are divided and broken," Zhang Shun roared in the wind and rain, as if this was the only way to suppress the panicked roars and the mighty wind around him, "Listen to the drums on the shore, the Mongolian Tartars must be attacking the camp!" They just want to take advantage of the absence of the sailor to defeat the left and right sides on the shore in a battle! Therefore, even if half of the naval division's warships are lost here, they can't take half a step back! ”

Seeing that Du Tong insisted, the commander didn't say anything more, and the shore was also Brother Pao Ze of the town navy, and they were still insisting that the sailors couldn't run away first. Once the ship disappeared from the water, it would be difficult for the soldiers on the shore to hold on, after all, not everyone would be able to fight on their backs, especially when facing an opponent like the Mongol cowardly Xue Army.

"Resist, each warship!" Zhang Shun wiped a handful of rain and strode on the warship.

At this time, the communication remains the same, and the easiest way is for the flagship to lead by example!

Although Zhang Shun's flag has been wet by the wind and rain and pasted on the flagpole, this largest building ship can still be seen clearly even if it is stormy. When I saw that the flagship did not flinch back, but moved forward step by step, the surrounding buildings and boats did not flinch, at this time, everyone was desperately holding on here, saying that they could not be a bad seed!

"Dutong, those town navies are already crazy, let's hurry up and run, it's still too late!" A commander knelt down in front of Xia Song with a "plop", "Wait a while, those damn logs will really hit it, and the two Huai Shui Divisions will be finished!" ”

Xia Song's face was hideous, and his eyes were blazing as if a flame was burning: "Retreat?!" ”

"Yes, all the generals, retreat, retreat!" Several generals whispered on the side.

After a moment of silence, Xia Song slowly pulled out the saber at his waist, and then unexpectedly stepped forward and kicked the old commander to the ground! The tip of the sword flashed more and more in the wind and rain, Xia Song didn't look at the quietly silent generals around him, and said in a cold voice: "Uncle Zhou, you used to work hard with your father, and later followed a certain wholeheartedly, which can be regarded as a great achievement, but today's matter, you still did something wrong, and you can't shake the army's heart at this juncture!" ”

The middle-aged commander was also frightened and kept retreating, while Xia Song slashed his sword without hesitation, blood splattered, and the commander covered his neck and fell to the ground. No one thought that Xia Song, who had always been kind, would kill him if he said that he would kill him, and the generals who said that they would retire just now all subconsciously shivered. And Xia Song pointed to the corpse in the wind and rain and said:

"Whoever dares to withdraw from the army, this is what will happen to him! Don't you usually be jealous of the water master of Zhenjiang Mansion opposite, now look at people, facing the Mongolian Tatars to the death, but what about you, you guys are running over and talking to Lao Tzu about retreating, just because of this, you are not worthy of being compared with the water master of Zhenjiang Mansion at all! Their Zhenjiang Mansion Water Master is not a bad seed, and our two Huai Water Master can't retreat! This is Lianghuai, and this is the place where the Lianghuai Water Division should be guarded! Go, give Lao Tzu a stand! ”

"No!" Several generals solemnly bowed their hands, turned around and ran into the wind and rain.

And Xia Song held the sword in his hand, and the rain flowed down the blade, washing the blood on it.

Daddy, as soon as Huaidong Li was defeated, you ran back regardless of it, and you didn't care about the Tianwu Army that was fighting each other, so that the Northern Expedition was forced to be suspended. That's your choice, everyone has their own ambitions, and the child can't control it, but today it's the child's turn to take the two Huai Shui divisions into battle, so you can't watch these same Song Jun'er Lang fight hard, and the two Huai Shui divisions pat their butts and leave.

This is a child's choice, whether it succeeds or fails, it is worthy of conscience.

"Two Huai Water Divisions, go up and cover the flanks of the Zhenjiang Mansion Water Division!" Xia Song ordered in a cold voice.

On the Huai River, which is rolling eastward, warships are vying to break the waves first.

"Brothers, the sailors and soldiers are desperate to keep us back, we can't let them work in vain, they all kill more Tartars for Lao Tzu, kill one is enough, and kill two to earn!" Wang Da used a mace in his hand to crash into the dark figure, waving it like the wind.

The non-commissioned officers of the town navy are all roaring and raising their swords in their hands, rushing forward to kill, even the sailors who have always been against each other are insisting on it at this time, just to be able to cover the back road of the robe on the shore, so what else do you have to hesitate about, you can't go back so embarrassedly, let those sailors and soldiers chill, let them see the jokes.

Although the muddy water under his feet is crossed, it is still the land that is trampled on, and since it is on the shore, then it is the battlefield of the town's naval footmen!

"Prop up the tent for Lao Tzu!" Zhang Shijie and several soldiers carried the flying thunder cannons that were wrapped layer by layer, and ran quickly, the tents in front of them had been lined up one by one, and one by one the flying thunder cannons were moved into the tent, and the tent door was open, aiming at the dark sky in front of them.

"Put!" Zhang Shijie roared angrily.

With a muffled sound, the explosive bag had already jumped out of the door of the tent, whistling into the darkness. And all kinds of large instruments, including bed crossbows, are also concocted in the same way. In the wind and rain, the Mongolian Tatar foot soldiers also staggered, and the queue dragged on for a long time, so although the front had been killed with the town navy, the back was still struggling to move forward.

"Boom!" The explosion was a little abrupt in the darkness, and only one or two explosive packs of more than a dozen flying thunder cannons had successfully exploded, but it still seemed like a lightning bolt tearing through the sky.

The night was dark and rainy.

The sound of the neighing of war horses could be faintly heard, Zhang Shijie took a deep breath, and the cowardly Xue Jun of the Mongolian Tartars finally couldn't bear to be silent, and it was estimated that they would be able to see them in a while. At that moment, Zhang Shijie patted a few soldiers around him, asked them to continue to operate the flying thunder cannon, and rushed into the wind and rain quickly:

"Come on, tell the brothers in the camp that the most difficult time has come, and if you want to see the dawn of tomorrow, you will fight with Lao Tzu!"

"If you fight for this life, you will kill the Tartars!" Several Song Junyu Marquis clenched their swords and rushed out first.

The rain washed the blades, and Zhang Shijie's eyes were cold, looking into the dark distance.

Yuanlie, since you entrust Huaibei to a certain person, whether it is a reassuring or helpless move, a certain person will do his best. What Mongolian Tartars, what cowardly Xue Jun, since today's stormy night, either you die or I die, it is better to decide the victory.

A certain Zhang Shijie is standing here, he will only move forward, never retreat!

――――――――――――――――――――――――

The spring rain weaves diagonally.

Standing on the tower of Han Yuan's mountain watch, Ye Yingwu stretched out his hand to feel the coldness of the spring rain.

"Don't you sleep so late, won't that Governor Dai invite you to a banquet tomorrow?" Zhao Yunshu gently pulled the coat on his body and slowly walked up to the mountain tower.

Ye Yingwu looked at the vast rain outside: "If you have something on your mind, of course you can't sleep." ”

"I don't know if that's a sympathy." Zhao Yunshu sat down.

"I still can't rest assured, let my brother-in-law take the town navy to face the cowardly Xue Jun and Shi Tianze, after all, it's not the best policy," Ye Yingwu smiled bitterly and picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Zhao Yunshu, "At that time, I didn't know if I was carried away, but I just came here like that, just for a guess that actually didn't have much basis." ”

Zhao Yunshu looked at him: "Regret it?" ”

"Don't regret it, since you came, there is nothing to regret, even if the Mongolian Tatars don't come to Lin'an, you can still rush in with five hundred cavalry and arrest Jia Rudao." Ye Yingwu said lightly, "It's just that from the bottom of my heart, I don't like this simple and rude way, after all, this is likely to lead to the royal family standing on its own feet in other places, and there are other ill-intentioned guys who support themselves in life, so it is safe to take over the imperial power from your old Zhao family with your own hands." ”

"It's really straightforward," Zhao Yunshu lowered his head slightly, not wanting Ye Yingwu to see the sadness in his eyes. Although this is already a fact, but being told in front of him about the death of the country, even if Zhao Yun is comfortable, no matter how strong he is, it is difficult to face it calmly.

But realizing something, Princess Xin'an still said softly: "Taking over the imperial power from the Zhao family, do you mean that in the end, you still plan to spare your father's life?" ”

Ye Yingwu was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "You can also think like this, at least you will feel more comfortable, the big deal is to send them far away in the future, after all, your father is also the official family of the Great Song Dynasty no matter what he says, and it is inevitable that someone will think of something crooked under his nose." ”

"Thank you." Zhao Yunshu nodded briefly.

Just as Ye Yingwu wanted to say something, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, followed by Jiang Tie standing at the bottom of the steps coughing softly.

Ye Yingwu hurriedly made a silent gesture, and it was a maid who came up, holding a fruit plate in her hand, seeing that Ye Yingwu and Zhao Yunshu were there, she hurriedly stepped forward and carefully put down the fruit plate, looking at the two people with some suspicion, Ye Yingwu did not hesitate to drink the tea when he saw this:

"Shu'er, this poem just now is good, it really has the style of Li Fanchuan, but there is still a gap, at least it doesn't show Li Fanchuan's ・・・・・・"

Seeing that the maid turned around and left, Ye Yingwu breathed a sigh of relief: "This Dai Zhitai is really not a good stubble. ”

"These are the handmaidens he gave you?" Zhao Yunshu looked at the tall and sweet-looking maid in the distance, and was shocked, and lowered his voice at the moment: "You mean that this Dai Zhitai actually sent someone to monitor?" ”

Ye Yingwu smiled bitterly: "I originally thought that this Dai Zhitai just wanted to curry favor, and it was understandable to send a few maids." But you see that the maid just now had a smoky gesture in her gestures, and there was obviously a layer of slightly yellowed calluses in her palms when she put down the fruit plate just now, obviously she was trained, but I don't know if it was the Imperial City Division who trained her. Now it seems that this Han Yuan is really not surnamed Ye in a blink of an eye, and he can't take this Dai Zhitai lightly. ”

"Pingjiang Mansion and Huzhou are the northern barrier of Lin'an, especially Pingjiang Mansion is the place where officials often choose to settle in Lin'an, and it is also a big state mansion, after Zhenjiang Mansion is controlled by you, Jia Rudao If you don't concentrate on running Pingjiang Mansion, I'm afraid he won't know if the Zhenhai Navy is killed outside Lin'an." Zhao Yunshu stood up and said, I was in no mood to sit here and watch the scenery by letting that maid bother me like this just now.

After all, everywhere you go, there are people watching in the dark, and you always feel uncomfortable.

Ye Yingwu Shi Ran stood up: "But sitting at the gate of Lin'an and watching the changes will also make people depressed, so you might as well take a look at this Dai Zhitai, how deep the water is, since he can be suppressed by Chen Yizhong, why can he get so close to the Imperial City Division, this person is really a little interesting." ”

Zhao Yunshu didn't say much, and just wanted to go downstairs, but Ye Yingwu took two steps forward and stopped her: "But I'm afraid I have to wronged Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I also ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to move to Cui Linglong, the two of us have to sleep together for one night." ”

"You? I? Zhao Yunshu stared in surprise.

"Nonsense." Ye Yingwu grabbed her, "I don't know how many of these maids outside are true or false, if you see that you and I are nominally husband and wife, but not only sleep in separate rooms, but also sleep in the east and west courtyards, everyone will be suspicious." ”

Zhao Yunshu flicked his sleeves and stood on the steps and looked at him angrily: "Did you do it on purpose, did you expect that there would be such a thing today, otherwise why would you let me pretend to be your wife instead of my sister?" Not beat around the bush. ”

slapped Zhao Yunshu on the head, Ye Yingwu took his hand and went downstairs, and said slowly: "Silly girl, Chen Yizhong's mother can't give birth to a girl, only a younger brother, can you blame so-and-so." ”

Zhao Yun stomped his feet in relief, but he could only follow with hatred. (To be continued.) )
