Later, the general Guo Mo led an army of 10,000 to the south bank of Danglikou, and although more than 100 large and small warships were moored here, they could only carry up to 3,000 soldiers to cross the river at the same time.

Guo Mo asked his generals to lead the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the First Army across the river, and watching more than 100 warships disappear into the foggy river, he suddenly felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, and his years of career as a horse made him cautious.

This time, the imperial court asked him to lead an army of 10,000 to Fuling to guard against Su Jun, originally just to put a little pressure on Su Jun to force him to submit, but he didn't expect that his army had not yet arrived in Fuling, Su Jun had already raised troops and persuaded Zu Yue to help him.

Now that the rebels have gathered more than 40,000 people and rushed to the city, it is meaningless for their 10,000 horses to go to Fuling City again, and the top priority is to cross the river to seize the north bank of the Dangli Pass, and hold on to it by virtue of the narrow pass on the north bank, which is not conducive to the deployment of the army.

As long as they held on to Danglikou, the rebels would not be able to cross the river, and a large number of reinforcements from the imperial court would be able to launch a counterattack as soon as they arrived. Thinking of this, Guo Mo felt a little relieved.

The turbulent river constantly slapped against the reef on the shore, making a huge sound, which greatly covered up the shouting and killing sound caused by the fighting of men and horses on the opposite shore and the intersection of swords.

At this time, the 3,000 men and horses of Guo Mo's subordinates who crossed the river first had just disembarked, and they were besieged by Su Jun's 20,000 troops who were ambushed around.

Su Jun selected the most elite 3,000 men and horses under his command, and some of the soldiers also changed into the clothes and armor of Guo Mo's army, and they boarded the warship and set sail towards the south bank of Danglikou.

#####

When the south bank of Likou, Guo Mo looked a little anxious, the three thousand men and horses under his subordinates should have arrived on the other side of the shore long ago, and the warship should also return to the south shore at this time, why can't I see the shadow of the warship until now, is there any accident, no, Su Jun just joined the Zuyue army yesterday, and it takes time for the two soldiers and horses to assemble, prepare grain and grass, and meet the division, so it stands to reason that they will not arrive here so quickly.

Perhaps it was because the fog on the river was too big and the warship was inconvenient to travel, Guo Mo looked at the white river and secretly comforted himself.

"General, the warship is back."

Guo Mo looked up, and sure enough, hundreds of warships were faintly drilled out of the river not far away, and his battle flag fluttered on the mast of the warship, and Guo Mo was completely relieved.

"Officers and men of the Second Army, prepare to cross the river." Guo Mo ordered.

Hearing the order, the 3,000 soldiers of the Second Army got up and approached the wharf of the ferry.

When the warship docked, Guo Mojun's soldiers were about to get on the ship, and suddenly a large number of soldiers rushed out of the cabin, and they attacked Guo Mojun like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

Guo Mo's second army completely collapsed in an instant, and it was no longer possible to organize effective resistance, and the soldiers who had not yet lost their lives turned around and ran, and the rout quickly dispersed the third army, which was originally in a fairly tight formation, Guo Mo watched his army collapse instantly, and his eyes suddenly widened in shock.

Su Jun took the lead and personally led the team to kill Guo Mojun, he looked up and recognized Guo Mo who looked panicked not far away, he snorted coldly in his mouth, and ordered: "The general who rode the horse under Daxu is Guo Mo, kill Guo Mo and reward a thousand taels of gold, kill!" ”

Guo Mo looked up and saw that Su Jun's rebels were all killing his Da Xu, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, he hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to throw Da Xu away, turned his horse's head and fled towards Gu Yi City.

Daxu fell, and some of the officers and men of the Third Army, who were still struggling to resist, saw that their supreme commanders had fled, and they suddenly collapsed.

Su Jun's army took advantage of the victory to pursue, all the way into a no-man's land, and soon captured Guyi, Guo Mo led less than 500 remnants of the army to abandon the city and flee, running to Cihu City not far away. The large amount of military rations and materials hoarded by Gu Yu did not have time to take away, and all of them became the trophies of Su Jun's rebels.

Two days later, Su Jun's main army and the 20,000 friendly troops sent by Zu Yue had been assembled around Guyu, and the counterinsurgency army of the imperial court had also moved closer to Guyu.

In the face of a strong enemy several times his own, Su Jun decided to capture the thief and capture the king first, leaving part of the troops to defend Gu Xiao and lead the enemy, the main army to attack head-on in the direction of the capital, and he himself personally led 5,000 elite detours "Xiao Danyang Road" to attack from the side like the capital, as long as the counterinsurgency army that captured the capital court will collapse, kill Yu Liang by himself, and coerce the Son of Heaven to make the princes' wishes come true.

Outside the Heavenly Prison in the capital, Hua An stood next to the stone lion at the door and frowned and thought about how to blend in, he had been observing here for several days, but he couldn't find the slightest flaw that could blend in, the guards of the Heavenly Prison were too strict, not to mention people or even birds couldn't fly in.

Hua An also tried to visit, but the jailer guarding the door ignored him when he saw that he was just a hairy child dressed in a cold cicada, and even punched and kicked him.

"It's been two days, and I don't know what happened to the master, the master and apprentice, even if you can't rescue the master, you have to stay with the master to share the hardships, and you must enter the prison today," Hua An thought as he strode towards the prison.

"Stinky boy, why do you come to make trouble every day, go and go, get out of the way for me." A jailer shouted impatiently when he saw Hua An coming over.

"I'm not leaving, I want to see my master." Hua An's face was stubborn.

"Heaven and earth are heavy, and those who are locked up are all important criminals who have committed major crimes, how can you let a kid go in and out casually." The jailer shouted a lecture.

Hua An snorted and retorted: "My master didn't break the law, he was wronged." ”

In the past few days, through various channels, Hua An finally understood why Han Qian was arrested, but he believed that his master was a good person, just imagine how a person who is dedicated to the country and the people and cares about the Northern Expedition can defect without warning.

Moreover, Han Qian has been in the capital recently, running for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. He may not know that Zu Yue raised troops, and it is really outrageous that the court locked the master in this prison without asking the reason.

"Who is wronged!" A rather dignified question came from behind him.

Several jailers guarding the gate of the heavenly prison immediately bent down and hurriedly said, "The villain is seeing Uncle Yu Guo." ”

Hua An looked back, only to see an official sedan chair parked behind him, a slightly fat, about forty years old middle-aged man got down from the sedan chair, standing behind him with a majestic face, this person was wearing a purple official robe, wearing an official hat, looking quite posture. He was followed by more than a dozen forbidden soldiers, including Yin Hao, the leader of the army who led the army when capturing Han Qian a few days ago.

"Uncle Yu Guo, could it be that this person in front of you is Yu Liang, who controlled the government and forced Su Jun to oppose Su Jun at the beginning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, this loser looks very majestic!" Hua An thought in his heart, and replied in his mouth: "My master Han Qian is for the country and the people, and he is thinking about the Northern Expedition, he is wronged. ”

After Hua An finished speaking, he looked at Yu Liang with a dissatisfied expression.

Yin Hao, who was on the side, saw that Hua An was in front of his master, neither kneeling nor bowing, but still looking angry, and immediately said angrily: "Presumptuous, I don't kneel down when I see Uncle Chao." ”

"Forget it, it's just a hairy child, the official doesn't care about these, and it's not in vain for Han Qian to have such a loyal apprentice." Yu Liang pretended to be generous in front of his subordinates.

"The adults are broad-minded, and the subordinates admire and admire." Yin Hao will not miss such a good opportunity to shoot horses.

Yu Liang nodded proudly, looked at Hua An and asked, "You are Han Qian's apprentice." ”

"Lord Hui, exactly." Hua An replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, and his eyes were bright.

Yu Liang couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, he looked at Hua'an carefully, and saw that the hairy child in front of him didn't show a trace of fear in front of him, the minister of the dynasty, this calmness and calmness are really rare.

Yu Liang sighed secretly, but also became curious, he wanted to know how Han Qian taught his apprentices, so that the apprentices he taught could not be humble or arrogant under his own majestic momentum, and he would not flinch.

"Oh, Han Qian has taught you something." Yu Liang asked.

When Hua An heard this, he almost repeated the words of Han Qian's teachings when he was apprenticed, and he replied: "Master, first of all, teach me the truth of being a man, first, don't fight with people, learn martial arts in order to join the army in the future and serve the country instead of being brave and ruthless." Second, we must always remember that we are the people of the Great Jin Kingdom, and we must never breed betrayal. Third, we must take the recovery of the Central Plains as our own responsibility, no matter what achievements we have in the future, we must never forget that the Central Plains is the land of our Great Jin Kingdom, and we must always be ready to fight on the battlefield. ”

After Hua An finished speaking, he puffed up his chest and looked at Yu Liang proudly. At this time, Yu Liang, Yin Hao, and the forbidden soldiers and jailers around them were all infected by Hua'an's words, and everyone nodded approvingly.

"Good boy, that's a good point, the big Jin man deserves it." Yu Liang stroked his beard and said in appreciation. Hua An said so impassionedly, even if Yu Liang was suspicious of Han Qian, he had to praise it.

Yu Liang praised himself, in fact, he praised his master for educating himself, which means that Yu Liang has some recognition for his master.

"Master has always taught me like this, my lord, my master will definitely not rebel against the court, he is not in the same group as the rebels." Huaan saw the opportunity to defend Han Qian.

Yu Liang said "um", he couldn't be sure whether Han Qian had colluded with the rebels, if there was conclusive evidence, he would have corrected Han Qian on the spot, at this time, seeing Hua An say this, he reduced his suspicion of Han Qian, but his suspicious personality decided that he would not trust anyone lightly.

"I hope that General Han Qian is loyal to the imperial court, but the state has national laws, and now the facts are unclear, and this official cannot make arbitrary assertions." Yu Liang said leisurely.

"Then can I go to the prison to see the master?" Hua An looked at Yu Liang in a daze and pleaded.
