Gongliang Youqin followed the prestige, although the wreckage mast hung a burned battle flag, but not deep underwater, can vaguely distinguish the shape of the ship's side, there is no female wall, the front side of the ship is not reinforced, the front armor and side walls have no fireproof skin, there is no spear hole, it is indeed just an ordinary inland river boat.

Gongliang Youqin turned around and looked at it violently, as if thousands of warships suddenly poured out of thin air behind him, and Gongliang Youqin's face turned white and terrifying.

The blue waves are turbulent, the white clouds are long, between the sky and the water, dozens of white birds are circling, it seems that the Puji fleet is blocking their route home, and a few chirps are louder and louder, but it makes Gongliang Youqin more and more irritable.

Zhao Weixu said softly: "The letter sent by the Zuo Governor can be read by the handsome. ”

Gongliang Youqin said impatiently: "Xu Bodang wants to vote for Nanping and let him go, but I am not used to obeying others." ”

"The current situation does not allow me to make any other decisions."

Gongliang Youqin waved his hand and said, "Send people into Wenling, let the defenders break through to the northeast, and we will answer here." The Blue Flame Army turned this place into a swampy land, and although it was not easy to pass, the Blue Flame Army could not pursue it. ”

Zhao Weixu hesitated, and finally asked as if he had made up his mind: "What is the intention of the marshal to take the defenders back?" ”

"Go back to Puji, decades ago, I rose in Puji with 10,000 elites, and now it's a big deal to go again."

Zhao Weixu's sigh was low and looked old, looking around, but he didn't know where to set the turbid eyes. Where is there a chance to go again, for decades, the land family Gaomen has dealt with the bandits of the Eastern Ocean, and the greatest effort has been to forbid the sea and relocate the people, and they have not spared no effort to develop the water camp like Xu Ruyu, and has the ambition to merge the Eastern Ocean into their own jurisdiction. It is almost certain that Xu Ruyu will not give him a chance to recuperate in Puji, not to mention whether Puji Island is still in his hands at this time, it is still unknown.

Zhao Weixu sighed softly: "I'm afraid that the Blue Flame Army won't give us this opportunity. ”

Gongliang Youqin was unwilling, and said: "Jiangning's water camps in Jinghai and Dongyang do not exceed 20,000 people, Wei Yu is all transferred, how can he get my Puji?" ”

Zhao Weixu glanced at Gongliang Youqin, saw that his face was burning, and paced on the deck uneasily, knowing that he just didn't want to admit it.

Zhao Weixu lowered his voice and said: "I have to admit that Wei Yu has the demeanor of a famous general, the combat strength of the Jiangning water battalion is insufficient, what is lacking is the warship, not the lack of troops, and our sea competition, the warship is insufficient, Wei Yu naturally cannot win, if he lands on the island to fight, Wei Yu can mobilize enough troops, if Liu Dahuai estimates Wei Yu's strength in this attack on the island by the number of warships, I am afraid that he will not hold Puji City, if Wei Yu is allowed to transfer his troops from Puji City, Puji Island is only afraid that it has changed hands at this time." ”

Liu Dahuai is the general of Puji, speaking of this, Zhao Weixu stopped and said secretly: But he was determined to give up at this time, which can be regarded as a big defeat.

Gongliang Youqin was silent, seeing the situation in the Dapei River, how could he guess Wei Yu's arrangement?

Zhao Weixu saw that Gongliang Youqin showed a painful and hesitant look on his face, knowing that the determination of a strong man to break his wrist was not easy to make, and continued to advise: "The world is unified to Nanping, it is difficult to be reluctant, the left governor is about to go west, and no one on the eastern front is to deter Jiangning. ”

It's just that at this time, if the public friend Qin is a drowning person, he grabs a straw, but he has great hope, and he has not seen the fall of Puji with his own eyes, and there is always luck in his heart: Wei Yu will not be so smart.

"What if Wei Yu didn't go to Puji?"

"If Puji is unharmed, then Liu Dahuai will scatter the elite on the islands, avoid the main force of the Jiangning Water Camp, and disturb the southeast coast, thinking that it is the response of the main force on the eastern front. Ling Du and Bodang are in Zhenning at this time, Jiang Ning's troop movement on the river can not hide the eyes of Ling Du and Bodang, Wei Yu is impossible to gather heavy troops into the river to stop us, there is Ling Du to respond, it is not difficult for our water battalion to pass through the river, if you want to deal with Jiang Ning, you can stay behind. ”

Gongliang Youqin's gaze was like a layer of smoke that made it impossible to distinguish what he was thinking at this time, and after a while, I saw him slowly raise his right hand, point in the direction of Wenling, and said, "What should I do here?" ”

"You can only wait for a while, the defenders in Wenling City can't break through within a day, and it's hopeless."

Gongliang Youqin's eyes suddenly opened, and the cold light shot out like lightning, and said in a deep voice: "The order is to let the defenders of Wenling break through to the north, and our warships will meet in the Qianjiang waterway southeast of Yuhang City." ”

From here, it landed more than ten miles to the west to Wenling City, but these ten miles have turned the flooded river into a flooded swamp, and it is impossible to go ashore to meet it. However, the Wenling defenders went north to the bank of the Qianjiang River in Yuhang, and had to pass through the Jinhua defense line of the Fan family, and the long-distance gallop was nearly 400 miles. Zhao Weixu looked at Gongliang Youqin's restrained and cold eyes, and felt a chill in his heart.

Wenling is surrounded by five miles, leaning on the eastern foothills of Wuling Mountain, the mountain is only forced to the root of the southern city wall, the eastern foot of Wuling Mountain is dense and dangerous, and it is not easy for ordinary warriors to walk alone, but they are not afraid that the remnants of Wenling will flee into Wuling Mountain. Considering the narrow terrain there, Feng Yuanyuan only sent many secret sentinels to sneak there to monitor the situation in Nancheng.

The Puji fleet appeared in the sea area to the east, and the messengers sent to Wenling City mostly went to the eastern foot of Wuling Mountain, and the good men in the army were pressed to the front, and the elite outposts were also mostly scattered between the north and Jinhua, so they could only watch the messengers of Puji enter and leave Wenling without other means. Feng Yuanyuan set up the big tent outside the east city gate, the terrain between the east city gate and the distance of two miles was slightly higher, and when the Dapei River was opened, only one place in the east of the city was left that did not let the river flood. Feng Yuanyuan pressed half of the 40,000 troops in Dongcheng, and the remnants of the thieves in Wenling City only had the courage to break through if Gongliang Youqin sent reinforcements from Puji, otherwise they would have nowhere to escape. From the tenth day received Wei Yu's military order, began to attack the city, dozens of stone-throwing crossbows moved to the east city together, the east wall of Wenling City has been dilapidated at this time, the southeast corner collapsed out of nearly 20 zhang of the gap, the two sides will fight on the ruins over there, Lin Seng Xiang is commanding more than 100 building cars, nest cars to the city wall on both sides of the gap, with crossbows, longbows to shoot the soldiers on the city wall, with bows and arrows to cover the ruins of the soldiers continue to rush to the city.

The gap there was the most fiercely contested, and Zhou Shilong led the elite to rush in and blocked it several times.

Zhou Shilong crippled one arm, the hanging sleeves were tied around his waist, the iron halberd in his right hand was much shorter than the two-handed halberd, only one foot and three inches longer than the ordinary body shorter double halberd, the halberd was as sharp as snow, but the red tassel did not know whether it was originally red, or it was dyed by the blood of the Kou soldiers, and the bright red tassel was particularly dazzling in the sunset. There were a few blood marks on his face, and he looked hideous and terrifying. Seeing that another wave of attacks was blocked, he was so angry that he screamed, and he was about to lead the troops to rush forward with an iron halberd.

Lin Seng Xiang hurriedly blocked him, pointed to Feng Yuanyuan not far behind him, and said, "If you rush in again, Feng Yuanyuan will take you down." ”

Zhou Shilong stabbed the iron halberd to the ground, spat it, did not speak, and stopped the gap with red eyes.

Lin Seng Xiang said: "It's better to ask Jiehai to lead people to come here to assault, as long as you hold on for a moment, you can completely control the gap." ”

The first to follow Xu Ruyu hundreds of bandits, in addition to Wei Yu, Jimo Mingxi, Wei Yan three of the most outstanding, there are also outstanding twelve cavalry captains. Qingliu died in Quanzhou, Fenglin, Xingshan, Yueyan, Guan Yue, Geng Long and others were transferred to the infantry battalion as middle and senior generals, and only six people remained in the cavalry battalion, including Burning Name, Jiehai, Yuanyu, Shu Kan, Weiyan, and Mo Zhen, and after the expansion of the cavalry battalion, they all served as lieutenants in the army.

Xu Ruyu deliberately trained the cavalry battalion into a terrifying existence like the ghost cavalry in Qingzhou, and the repeated expansion of the cavalry battalion was the elite selected from various armies, and the rank of ordinary cavalry battalion soldiers was one to two orders higher than that of the water battalion and the infantry battalion. Jiang Ning received a secret letter from Xu Ruyu from Youji, and made an exception for Jiehai and Burning Stone to lead a thousand cavalry battalions to be transferred to Feng Yuanyuan.

Zhou Shilong waved his hand and said, "There are still faces to meet people in the camp after the camp, and Feng Yuanyuan will not release them at this time." He said, "You are keeping an eye here, I will go and ask Feng Yuanyuan for orders, if he doesn't let me lead the troops to attack it, I will let you Xiao guards fight here." Not listening to Lin Sengxiang's persuasion, he stepped on the green-maned horse, raised his whip and walked towards Feng Yuanyuan.

Feng Yuanyuan was wearing a green robe outside the iron armor, his face was slightly thinner, his eyes were tranquil, he was not worried about the slow progress of the offensive in Dongcheng at all, he was a little elegant, Zhou Shilong saw it from afar, remembered his origin, smiled, rode his horse until the gate, and then dismounted and handed the horse to the guards behind him. Just as several teams of elite soldiers were heading north, Zhou Shilong was puzzled, and walked up to Feng Yuanyuan and was about to ask.

Feng Yuanyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "You are not in front of you to supervise the battle, why are you here?" ”

Zhou Shilong hugged his fists and said: "The city wall has opened a gap, and I can't attack it after a few attacks, if you don't let me organize elite soldiers to kill it, I may not be able to take Wenling tomorrow." ”

Feng Yuanyuan listened to his questioning, and his face sank.

Zhou Shilong was originally organized in the Xiao Wei Army, but in the battle of Gantang, Zhou Shilong ignored the military order, attacked and killed Gongliang Xiaotian behind his back, although he did not change the battle situation to the bad side, and finally had a disagreement with the generals of the Xiao Wei Army, and later transferred away from the Xiao Wei Army and followed Xu Ruyu's side, the Battle of Nanmin ended, after Jiang Lingtian arrived in Yueqing, he expanded the Su Wei Army, transferred him to the Su Wei Army, and promoted him to the school captain.

Feng Yuanyuan's face softened, and said: "Puji reinforcements are close to the side, at this time, forcibly attack the city, the fighting spirit of the thieves in the city is strong, first slow down the offensive in the eastern city." ”

Zhou Shilong retorted: "General Wei and Jiang Ning strictly ordered to annihilate as many enemy troops as possible in order to reduce the pressure on the western front. ”

Feng Yuanyuan's brows were knotted, and he glanced at Zhou Shilong, but did not speak.

Jiehai, who was standing next to him, said: "Jiang Ning did not ask for the destruction of the remnants of the city, at this time, the Puji reinforcements are close to one side, if we slow down the offensive, they will break through and survive, and their fighting spirit will be weak." ”

Zhou Shilong secretly thought: The siege of the city will naturally not use the elite of the cavalry battalion, if it is a field battle with the enemy or a pursuit of the rout, it will show the incomparable sharpness of the cavalry battalion. Without speaking, he glanced at Feng Yuanyuan, saw that his expression was firm, and knew that he would not move, so he hugged his fists and said, "If you lure the enemy out of the city, please transfer my department to the northeast of Wenling." ”

Feng Yuanyuan said: "It's too late, the thieves in the city have already assembled in the northern city." ”

Outside the northern city, only Li Yi led 10,000 guards, and even less outside the western city, only 8,000, and there were still more than 13,000 soldiers in the city.

The outside of the northern city is open, and the camp of the Su Guard army is set up on the plain two miles away from the north city gate. If the 10,000 Qingyan Army wants to completely block the way of the Kou soldiers, the situation of the defensive array must be very thin, and it will be penetrated as soon as it is pierced.

Only by judging the direction of the breakthrough of the Kou soldiers, Li Yibu delayed the speed of the breakthrough of the Kou soldiers, and then outflanked the soldiers and horses in a roundabout way, and surrounded and annihilated the 13,000 Puji bandits on a certain plain outside Wenling City.

Which side will the Kou soldiers break through?

While everyone was hesitating, the sound of fighting in the north city of Wenling was loud, and the warning fireworks rose into the air in the northwest direction of Wenling.

Zhou Shilong was surprised: "How could the Kou soldiers break through to the northwest? ”

Feng Yuanyuan was also taken aback.

To the northwest, it will only be far away from the sea, that is, it will be necessary to return to the seaside, and it will not be as fast as the Blue Flame Army that went to stop it.

Feng Yuanyuan thought for a moment and said: "Li Yi is only afraid of distributing his troops in the northeast direction, so he will give the order to Lin Seng Xiang to lead 10,000 elite soldiers to stick here, and after making sure that all the Kou soldiers have escaped from the city, he will lead the crowd to Anxi in the north. He said to Zhou Shilong: "You lead 10,000 elite soldiers, move directly to the north, pay attention to approaching the Kou soldiers who break through in the northwest direction, and be careful of the Kou soldiers at sea." He Jiehai said: "You and Burning Stone lead the cavalry camp and go to Beicheng with me." ”

Thousands of horses raced, and the sound of hooves exploded like spring thunder, rolling up the dust in the sky, like a huge yellow dragon rushing around the northeast corner of Wenling City and towards the north city.

Just as Feng Yuanyuan was worried, Li Yi saw that the Kou soldiers showed signs of breaking through the siege, and deployed their troops in the northeast direction, and he did not expect that the Kou soldiers would break out of the city and rush to the depth of Jiangning. There are only 2,000 troops in the northwest direction, and the defensive formation is quite thin, so that nearly 10,000 Kou soldiers rush through, and the Kou soldiers dare not entangle, penetrate the thin defensive formation, and go to the northwest, seemingly wanting to pass through the space between the two cities of Yueqing and Yantan, and attack Fuzhou Mansion. There will be no false breakthrough this time, almost 10,000 Puji bandits have already rushed out of the city, and the defenders of the Qingyan Army outside the west city have moved north, rushing towards the left flank of the Kou soldiers. The tail of the Kou soldiers divided a column of more than 500 people and greeted the Qingyan Army all the way.

With 500 to 5,000, the Kou soldiers wanted to sacrifice 500 people to win time to break through. The lord of Xicheng will be Fenglin, seeing that five hundred Kou soldiers are coming, they are busy dividing hundreds of people to refuse, the main force continues to maintain the pursuit route, but the five hundred Kou soldiers are not afraid of death, bypassing hundreds of elites, and continue to entangle the main force of the Qingyan Army along the way, and finally it is too late, only biting the tail tip of the Kou soldiers, and the Kou soldiers strip off the Qingyan Army from the tail tip of hundreds of people who delay the pursuit.

Seeing this, Li Yi divided the pursuing forces into a team of 1,000 people, and divided them into five ways to chase the fleeing Kou soldiers.

Feng Yuanyuan rode to Li Yi's side and said, "You don't need to care about the pursuit, quickly lead five thousand elites to Yantan and Jinhua to wait." ”

Li Yi said: "General Feng thinks Kou Bing will go to Jinhua? ”

"I don't dare to conclude, but there is time there, Zhou Shilong led 10,000 elite soldiers directly to the north, and the two of you keep in touch, and the distance between the two armies must not exceed thirty miles. In addition, it is necessary to closely monitor the movements of the soldiers at sea. ”

Li Yi said: "This time, the troops in the dock fort between Yantan and Yueqing are almost empty, if the Kou soldiers pass through the empty space between Yantan and Yueqing, what if they invade Fuzhou?" ”

Li Yi was born in a Fuzhou village, and Fuzhou is safe, how can he not care?

Feng Yuanyuan said in a deep voice: "The Kou soldiers are advancing deep into Fuzhou, and there is only one dead end. ”

"If Kou Bing wants to be friends with Gongliang, he should break through to the northeast."

Although the water of the Dapei River is urgent, but the amount of water is limited, the river floods, only flooding the land on both sides of the river bank for more than 30 miles, the northeast direction is still a plain, as long as the Kou soldiers break out from there, run for thirty or forty miles, they can go to the sea, and join the fleet of the Puji bandits, so the Qingyan Army will distribute more troops in the northeast direction, but they did not expect that the Wenling Kou soldiers will break through to the northwest.

Since the Kou soldiers did not break through to the northeast as expected, of course, they may also go crazy to Fuzhou to sabotage the situation. Feng Yuanyan couldn't understand the meaning of Li Yi's words. His eyes narrowed, his long eyebrows bulged, his eyes showed a cold light, and he said categorically: "The Kou soldiers broke north to Jinhua, the Fan family is bound to be caught off guard, the Fan family is afraid of our army far more than the Kou soldiers, our army and the Kou soldiers are at the end of the ranks to Jinhua, how do you think the Fan family's elite soldiers should react?" ”

The elite soldiers of the Fan family may not be able to intercept the Kou soldiers who have become water dogs, but they will definitely intercept the Qingyan army that wants to cross the border to pursue.

Feng Yuanyuan hid another layer of worry and did not say anything, when the Kou soldiers entered the territory of the Fan family, Fan Che was afraid that he would think that Feng Yuanyuan intended to cross the border, that is, to wipe out the Kou soldiers in the territory, and the relationship with Jiang Ning would become even worse.

With Feng Yuanyuan's bad deeds when he was a mountain bandit, it is strange that Fan Che and the people in the jurisdiction don't think so.

Jiang Ning is now trying his best to win over the relationship with the Fan clan, and will never allow such a change to occur.

Feng Yuanyuan would rather hope that the Kou soldiers would enter the territory of Fuzhou, although it would cause huge losses, but it was not irreparable.

Feng Yuanyuan glanced at Jiehai and Burning Stone, and bowed slightly.

Jiehai knew what he meant, the Kou soldiers were able to break their wrists and divide the tail tips of the troops to entangle the pursuing Qingyan Army, and only the elite of the 1,000 cavalry battalions could go around to the front of the Kou soldiers to intercept. Jiang Ning sent the elite of the cavalry battalion, naturally he did not want them to participate in the siege, but hoped that when the Kou soldiers broke through and were defeated, the elite of the cavalry battalion would eliminate the Puji bandits to the greatest extent and fight a beautiful battle of annihilation.

Jiehai and Burning Stone glanced at each other, and saw that his expression could no longer hide his excitement. The round face of the burning stone is fine, the left eyebrow is cut off half, the light in the eyes is very sharp, the only pirates of the year are Jimo Mingxi and the three people call Xu Ruyu as Mr., but the twelve cavalry captains are all accompanied by Xu Ruyu to practice martial arts, if Qingliu does not die in Quanzhou, at this time the skills should also be among the second grades. Although there is a slight gap between the other eleven qualifications, they are almost at the level above the lower level of the second grade.
