Chapter 1332: After Hearing the News

Zhao Song's face changed greatly when he heard this voice, and the faces of everyone in the fortress changed.

"The Tartars have crossed the mountain, and now it is a two-way attack, Dongjiang Town is defeated, no, Dongjiang Town is destroyed!"

Even if they couldn't see it with their own eyes, Zhao Song and his subordinates could imagine that scene, when they were trying their best to deal with the enemy army in the north, there were enemy troops in the rear, and this noise was not even combative, and when the soldiers and horses of Dongjiang Town saw the moment when the Jianzhou Jurchen appeared from behind, the whole situation completely collapsed.

Zhao Song walked down the wall quickly, walked directly to Zheng Xiaoer, who was at a loss, and asked urgently: "Now that Phi Island is finished, Dongjiang Town is also finished, if you want to survive, you can only fight with the Tartars, do you want to save more people?" Do you want to be with the Tartar pauper? Then go out and gather the people over, rely on me here, you can still fight! ”

The words did not match the words, but the meaning Zheng Xiaoer understood, but there was hesitation in his expression, only then did he regard death as if he were home, but when he came to a temporarily safe environment, he had to go out to do the errand of nine deaths and a lifetime, but he might not be able to make up his mind.

"I'll take someone with you, boy, I don't want your fellow villagers to die, I don't want them to make cattle and horses for Tartars, then go out with me!" Zhao Song's expression was already very hideous when he spoke.

Zheng Xiaoer was stunned again, then reacted, knelt down directly and said, "The little one is willing to go out with the master!" ”

"Yingzheng, your surname is Zhao or not, you can't go out, this is the rule of our Zhao family's army, the lord will leave here, who will give the order, this is also fucking military law!" Luo Chen shouted loudly.

Zhao Song glared at Luo Chen, turned his head to look at the fateful company and said: "Fifty people from the third company followed this kid to collect Qingzhuang, and they can bring as many people as they can. ”

After the order was issued, there was no response for a while, originally ordered, the person who received the order would respond immediately, but now he was a little hesitant, Zhao Song was stunned at first, and then he was furious, and shouted at the bottom: "Don't you have the courage to fight a fight?" Just shrink inside, Lao Tzu will go out by himself! ”

As soon as he finished yelling, the third company also reacted, and replied loudly with a flushed face: "Please rest assured, the subordinates will lead five teams to do so." ”

"Our first company fought in front, and you guys were afraid to cover up in the back, did you have the courage to be eaten by dogs?" Someone from the first company said in a weird way, and everyone in the third company was red-faced, and those hesitations couldn't be explained.

"The third company is not afraid of death, and the men of Xuzhou are not afraid of death!" Third, Lian Zheng's whole person will explode.

"It's good not to be afraid of death, it's important to complete the errand, not to be afraid of death is not to let you go to death, when you see the Tartar, run back quickly, the living are useful." Zhao Song said in a muffled voice.

Although there is this advice, but Zhao Song's face is extremely ugly, he knows the reason for these hesitations, Zhao Jiajun has fought a hard battle, but has never fought such a tragic battle, Zhao Jiajun thinks that he is undefeated, he thinks that he has an overwhelming advantage, and it has been smooth sailing, after encountering such a setback, he was a little unable to return to his senses for a while.

But now he can't think about it anymore, there are thousands of Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers staring at him not far away, Zhao Song must lead the rest of the battalion to go out to cover, otherwise these fifty people can't do anything.

"Drag a nest of fire, the artillery is waiting for my order!" Before leaving, he gave orders, the gate of the fortress was opened again, and Zhao Song led several companies out of the fortress again.

Although the number of Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers on the opposite side was more than twice as large, but the battle just now also made a deep impression on them, seeing this strange army of soldiers and horses re-fighting, all of them were nervous and abnormal, and the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers were also not afraid of vicious battles, but thinking about the fact that they had to be killed by the fire before approaching the other party, they muttered in their hearts.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners below hesitated, but the remaining staff leaders and the assistant leaders below did not dare to be ambiguous, the marching law is to ask for heads, and the family members also have to be slaves, how to step forward, they also slowly leaned forward.

The Jurchen soldiers and horses who stayed behind noticed that three two-wheeled vehicles were pushed to the front, and there were boxes on the vehicles, which looked like a swarm of bees in the Ming Dynasty, but there were no rockets placed in them, just tubes, and behind these three vehicles, there were prepared Xuzhou firecrackers, lined up in a neat queue there.

By this time, the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses had not yet stepped into the range of the dock, although the tactics of the Zhao family army were still a little vague, but anyone with battlefield experience could see that this area was flat and spacious, which was very suitable for the Zhao family's tactics.

In order to move quickly, the fifty people of the third company only wore chest armor and helmets, and advanced lightly, and ran towards the island with Zheng Xiaoer quickly, while the team led by Zhao Song did not move.

When they saw that there were only fifty people who ran out, the Jianzhou Jurchens did not pursue, and the fifty people could not change the tide of the battle, but there were thousands of people fighting on the north bank, and they just confronted Zhao Song.

"The Tartars are not in a hurry, they must be thinking that when the armies on both sides meet, they will come and eat us when the time comes!" Zhao Song said with an ugly face.

After confirming that the fifty-one people sent out would not be overtaken, Zhao Song led the team to slowly retreat into the fortress, and the Jianzhou Jurchen soldiers and horses left behind there also returned to their original places in a measured manner, and there were still many ships to guard.

Zhao Song arranged for people to look out for the way alone, and then looked at the pier from the fortress lookout, the Yunshanxing fortress was built to ensure the safety of Zhao Jiajun's existence on Phi Island, but no one expected that the danger would come so quickly, so the fortress also has an important purpose to control the dock of Phi Island.

The presence of the port of Phi Dao is extremely important to Xuzhou's commercial strategy and maritime vision, and this fortress is to be able to firmly control the port terminal, and even the caliber of artillery on the fortress has this consideration.

"Lao Luo, what is stored on the dock, what is piled up, we have it in the accounts, bring the accounts and let me take a look." Zhao Song said to the worried Luo Chen.

************

The soldiers of the Zhao family army who had gone to the battlefield on the north shore to report had already arrived, and when he arrived there, he saw countless rafts rowing from the land side to this side.

Although this soldier of the Zhao family army knew that Dongjiang Town was much stronger than the Jurchen, after seeing the scene in front of him, he also knew that the odds were not good.

The Jianzhou Jurchens did their best to get on the raft, and there were only more than 2,000 boats on the boat in Dongjiang Town, and the Jianzhou Jurchens still had an advantage in terms of quantity, and there were not many good ships in Dongjiang Town, and more importantly, the chances of the officials and troops in Dongjiang Town were only on the sea.

There were many refugees scattered on Phi Island, but at this time of war, they were all organized, either to transport supplies for the army, or to be used as a reserve, and were not allowed to leave their places without permission and enter the battlefield without permission.

The soldiers of the Zhao family army who came to report the news and the people from Dongjiang Town who were on duty over there also knew the seriousness, and they did not shout out the news that the Jianzhou Jurchens had landed on the other side, but wanted to meet Mao Wenlong to report.

There should be more than one group of people who came back from the east bank, the south bank, and high places to report the news, but Zhao Jiajun's side reacted the fastest and came here the earliest.

The generals of Dongjiang Town, who were nervously following the situation at sea, immediately met with the messenger, and reluctantly complied with the request after listening to the request to retreat left and right, and at this time several other waves of messengers had already arrived, and even if they had not heard anything, the generals of Dongjiang Town began to have bad conjectures.

"There are at least four thousand Tartars who have landed on the southeast side, and it is possible that five thousand or even five thousand"

"My battalion has already led troops out to block it, please send troops to support that side and stop the Tartars"

The guards and others were held back, but Chen Jisheng, Li Jiucheng, the core figures of Dongjiang Town, were still there, hearing the news, everyone's faces changed greatly, Mao Wenlong's body shook even more, and it took a step to stabilize, he did not speak immediately, but looked at the sea, and the battle over there had begun.

The naval battle did not repeat the process of the previous days, the Jianzhou Jurchens who set off on the land side had a very clear purpose, that is, regardless of losses, to land as soon as possible, and the rafts were divided into several teams, some to entangle the fleet, some were responsible for the reserve, and the rest of the rafts were to pounce on Phi Dao.

If the maximum loss is estimated, I am afraid that only about 2,000 Jurchen soldiers will be able to land on the island in the end, but everyone knows that as long as these two thousand and eight banners land and stand firm, Dongjiang Town may have to exert all its strength to retreat.

Moreover, the opponent is attacking in such a comprehensive way, Dongjiang Town's own fleet is a little insufficient, and there are more rafts that have leaked over, and the ten sea ships that are preparing on the shore are ready to set sail to participate in the battle, and the officers and soldiers of Dongjiang Town who are preparing to meet them on land are also waiting for them, looking at them and holding on, but all this is under the condition of only this side of the attack.

"Lao Chen, according to our previous appointment, take everyone on the boat, go now!" Mao Wenlong took a deep breath and made arrangements in a deep voice.

Hearing Mao Wenlong's words, Chen Jisheng and Li Jiucheng were stunned at first, and then awe-inspiring, Mao Wenlong didn't let them speak, but just said: "Call the people we have set, get on the boat now, don't go back to take women, in this current situation, you can't care about these dewy marriages!" ”

The soldiers of the Zhao family army who came to report were a little confused, and the people of Dongjiang Town who followed them were no better, they couldn't figure out Mao Wenlong's response at all, shouldn't they be sending troops to block it now, or sending people to help the Zhao family army, how to say these inexplicable words.

Over there, Chen Jisheng and Li Jiucheng's faces have become ugly, according to their identities, they should be in charge of the battalion head in front to supervise the battle, and they were called here to arrange when the whole Jurchen army came to attack, but they didn't expect to hear this.

Their faces were ugly and ugly, they exchanged glances with each other, looked at Mao Wenlong again, and they all turned their heads to leave, Chen Jisheng, the deputy general of Dongjiang Town, walked a few steps, turned his head and said: "Mao Shuai, you come over quickly!" ”
