——

The military system of South Goryeo is divided into two armies, six guards, four prefectures, alias Zhuban, etc., among which the second army is the most elite and ranks above all armies. These two armies, one is called the Eagle Yang Army, and the other is called the Dragon and Tiger Army. The former participated in the Battle of the Twin Cities and lost most of them. The reinforcements that came to Wenchuan this time included the latter.

The king of Goryeo sent them, hoping that even if he could not annihilate Monk Lee's troops, he would at least stop the advance of Haedong. Unexpectedly, in the end, he didn't send a single arrow, and all of them were buried in the belly of the fish.

When the news came out, Wang Jing was shaken.

From Wenchuan further, dozens of miles can reach the Imjin River, down the river, can reach Wangjing all the way. The king of Goryeo regretted the loss of the elite and was afraid that the Haedong army would arrive at dawn and night, so he could no longer care too much, so he urged the garrisons of the Sehae provinces and Gyeonggi regions and the navy of Jeolla and other provinces to rush to the front line of the eastern flank.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

"Haha, a good Monk Li, a good flooded Wenchuan."

In Pyongyang's Marshal's Mansion, Deng She jumped barefoot from the bed with joy, grabbed the window in three or two steps, pushed the window open, and the heavy rain in the early days had already stopped, and the air after the rain was fresh and pleasant, pouring into the room like a tide.

In the yard, in the corner flower garden, there are flowers blooming. The trees were washed clean, and the leaves of early spring, not too green, were tinged with blue, and in the morning light, with a little dew, like crystal. The flowers and leaves are intertwined, and it looks very cute.

Deng She's unexpected behavior startled Luo Guannu, who was sleeping with the bed, and then, she giggled, jumped out of bed with her bare feet, ran to his side, and helped him put on his clothes and shoes.

In the backyard of the Shuaifu, this big morning, ordinary people can't get in. Yao Haogu, who came to report the news, met Bi Qianniu at the gate of the courtyard, and Bi Qianniu asked Li Aguan, who got up early, to come over and convey the news.

Deng She was overjoyed, and didn't mind the spring in the room. While stretching out his arms and letting Luo Guannu help him get dressed, he shouted to the gate of the courtyard: "Mr. Yao, what kind of troops are being dispatched in South Goryeo, and is the army in the Gyeonggi area empty?" Come in and tell me more about it. ”

Yao Haogu was also in a good mood, and after waiting for more than half a month, he finally made some gains on the eastern front. Monk Li lived up to expectations and successfully attracted the attention of South Goryeo, and the next step was to stage the main event, which was the main force that had been rushing for many days, and made a gorgeous debut.

To call the appearance of the main force of the rush is gorgeous, and it is not an exaggeration at all. Judging from the lineup, the team of 10,000 people is all selected from the five ya, which can be regarded as the elite of the elite. The commander who led the army was designated as Zhao Guo, and was transferred back to Qing Qianxing from Liaoxi and appointed as the deputy marshal. The forwards of the second step and cavalry divisions are Yang Wanhu and Tong Shengyang. Deng She personally supervised the grain and grass, and Luo Guoqi, who returned from the envoy, was responsible for protecting the grain road.

The follow-up 20,000 people were also selected from the five ya, coach Wenhuaguo, and deputy marshal Ha Mitsuhide.

Whether it is Zhao Guo or Wen Huaguo, he has been in charge of one side for a long time, and now he is in charge alone, and he is a big man in one aspect and a commander in command, there is no problem, and his ability is more than enough. Qing Qianxing and Ha Guangxiu, both Koreans, are familiar with the terrain and understand the people's conditions, and it is most suitable to be the deputy marshal. Yang Wanhu and Tong Shengyang are known for their courage and outstanding, and they can serve as strikers. Cheng can be described as a crack soldier, gathered together.

Yao Haogu took small steps and stepped into the hall.

"That the lord may know. The line report made by our army in South Goryeo: The king of Goryeo has recently mobilized the garrisons of Zhudao and Gyeonggi one after another, and the second time to the east. In the Gyeonggi area, the hinterland is empty. The strategy of the Lord to attack the west was not only completely realized, but also realized early because of General Li's move to divert water to flood the city. The actions of the main forces of our army can be advanced. ”

"How's the sea route?"

"The day before yesterday, the lord appointed Liu Yang as the marshal of the navy, with Fujijiro, Nagano Shiro and others as ten thousand households, and Fujimitsu Hide, Kikuzaburo and others as thousands of households. Gathering 400 ships and 4,000 sailors, they thought that they were partial divisions and attacked the Jeolla provinces along the southern coast of Goryeo. Most of the navy of Goryeo has been attracted to the past. The area around Ganghwa Island is also empty. ”

"How's the grain prepared?"

"That's 30,000 people for two months. As long as our army successfully penetrates into the hinterland of South Goryeo, the grain stocks of South Goryeo can also be used by us. Together, there is no problem in supporting a war of less than three months. "The capture of Wangjing in South Goryeo, if it goes well, will take half a month at most. However, the capture of Wangjing was only a partial victory, and the next step was to pacify all parts of South Goryeo. In total, according to the predictions of Yao Haogu, Hong Jixun and others, almost three months is enough.

"Morale in the army?"

"Morale is high. General Zhao and General Wen ate and lived in the army every day, and practiced soldiers endlessly. The generals of all the departments were all excited and eager for a battle. ”

Deng She was overjoyed, he didn't have to think about it, he also knew that the time had come to go out of the army.

He stood up in his clothes, ordered the generals to be summoned, and passed down the generals' orders: "General order: Order, Zhao Guo led the main force of 10,000 people out of the city on the same day, day and night, and went straight to the king of South Goryeo." Fate, Wen Huaguo led 20,000 follow-ups, and went out of the city tomorrow, and also traveled day and night, thinking that Zhao Guobu was the backup. Order, Liu Yang led the main ships of the navy 200 ships, 2,000 sailors, two days later, set sail to the west, wait for Zhao Guo's army to besiege Wangjing, that is, attack Jianghua Island, control the western sea route. ”

A cool breeze blows into the hall. The generals were awe-inspiring, and all those who were named were generously promised and strode away. The sun is getting higher and the sun is shining down, adding a little warmth. In the flower garden in the courtyard, the flowers of early spring bloom dazzlingly, and a wisp of fragrance fills the room.

The hall is full of 3,000 guests, and a sword is cold in 14 states.

In the afternoon of the same day, the entire territory of Haidong was blocked, and people were prohibited from entering and leaving. At night, Zhao Guobu died down, did not play the flag, quietly left the camp, traveled 100 miles at night, not two days, went out of the border of Haidong, bypassed the city of South Goryeo, traveled day and night, along the river, took the mountain road, all the way to the south.

Goryeo is cold in the north and warm in the south, and the further south it goes, the warmer it gets. To the south of Pyongyang, even in the cold winter, the temperature is often above freezing. And the rain is abundant. Zhao Guobu's marching route was close to the coast. Therefore, although it is only the end of February, the mountains along the road are densely forested and lush.

They were covered by trees, and the divisions were broken into pieces, and they marched quite smoothly.

Yang Wanhu, the infantry pioneer officer, has a ten-person team in his department, which is the front sentry horse. The captain of the ten-man team is none other than Fang Mihan. In the battle of Liaodong, he made a meritorious contribution and was promoted to a hundred households, not long ago, because of the dereliction of duty of the department, he was degraded and demoted, and he was demoted to the ninth master. The so-called shame and courage, this time, the task of the front sentinel is to take the initiative to ask for him to come, in order to atone for his crimes.

On this day, they sneaked through the second city they encountered after entering the territory of South Goryeo,—— Suian.

Before that, they went all the way south, and from there, they had to turn east, follow the Licheng River, and take the mountains along the east bank of the river. After passing several cities such as Xinxi and Jincheon, it approached Gyeonggi and Wangjing. By the time we got here, we had already made two stops out of ten stops.

Fang Mihan touched the mountain road, climbed to a high place, and looked around.

Sui'an Mansion is dozens of miles away on the west side, and dozens of miles away from the east, there is also a city, if it is correct, it should be Gushan Mansion. In the middle of the two cities, the mountains are continuous. There is Yanzhen Mountain in the north, Jiuhua Mountain in the south, and this one under the feet is called Daozhou Mountain. The mountain is not steep, but the height is not low. They had walked up the mountain last night for half the night before they found a way down the mountain suitable for the army.

There were several families of woodcutters living in the mountains, who had just been disposed of by his brothers two hours earlier.

He heard a faint sound of footsteps behind him, and first grasped the long knife at his waist alertly, and then turned around to see that it was a thin monkey. Before he was appointed to Baihu, the thin monkey followed his men, and successively experienced the bloody battle of Dongmu Mountain and the battle of Liaodong, and he was also an old soldier, and the two have always cooperated tacitly.

He asked in a low voice, "Is the mark ready?" ”

"It's done. Where the road is dangerous, where the road is narrow, whether there are landslides in the mountain, where there are many trees, where there is water, all have been clearly marked. "In addition to the duty of reconnoitring the enemy's situation, the forward also has the task of exploring the way and opening the mountain. These markers, using secret words, were shown to Yang Wanhu and others in the back.

"After crossing this mountain, on the way to Jiuhua Mountain, there is a plain. Be careful not to reveal your whereabouts on the road. Fang Mihan looked up at the sky, "It's almost dawn, just rest on the mountain for a day." Wait until it gets dark and keep marching! ”

There are many wildflowers among the trees on the mountain.

Green vines wrapped around the trees, and flowers dotted the grass on the ground. Mountain flowers are splendid, and they are different from artificially planted and ornamental domestic flowers, with a fragrance of the wild. The people searched for a secret place and set up a sentry post, and the others unarmed their weapons and slept in their clothes.

They wore different weapons, including long swords and short swords, and scattered flowers. The soft flowers, the hard knives, the red reflections of the mountains, and the red and bright blood marks on the knives formed a strange harmony in the night before dawn, accompanied by their tired snoring.

"When I dreamed back last night, the fragrance of flowers was full of clothes."

In the city of Pyongyang, at a daily wartime meeting, Hong Jixun gently shook the folding fan and recited such a poem. Fighting on the front line does not delay the various civil administrations in the rear. The rhododendrons of Goryeo are very famous, and during the flowering season, Shuangcheng and other places have sent many famous varieties to Dunshe. Luo Guannu loved it very much, and placed it everywhere, even in the meeting hall, and put several pots.

"This azalea, Goryeo's name is Jindalai. Song people Yang Wanli has a poem: the Jinjiang River is like a brocade every day, and the clear stream reflects the red mountains. Yingshan red is also another name for rhododendron. Lord, please see, this pot of famous seeds, many buds, splendid places, the mountains are like fire. The three words 'Yingshan Hong' are well deserved. ”

A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance.

The eastern front was full of successes, the main force of the western front was sneaking smoothly, Hong Jixun was in a good mood, he closed the fan, lifted the fan handle upside down, and pointed to the cuckoo in the hall. He has heard and seen it since he was a child, and he is familiar with all kinds of cuckoos, and the allusions are attracted at will, and the comments are just right. Yao Haogu stroked his palms and praised, and Deng She smiled and listened.

He was still unsatisfied, and said: "Borrow the lord's sword and use it." ”

With a bang, Deng She drew his sword from its sheath and handed it to him. He took it, picked up a cuckoo with the tip of his sword, and said, "My lord, please look." Deng She leaned over and looked up, only to see a bright red, reflecting the clear blade of the sword, and the jewel of the hilt shining with it.

This scene is in line with the poetry of the sentence "The Jinjiang River is like brocade every day, and the clear stream reflects the red mountains" quoted by him. It attracted a lot of applause.

Hong Jixun took a sideways step with his sword and pointed to the outside of the hall: "The minister heard that the lord of South Goryeo, good music, famous flowers, and the inner palace flower garden, planted a lot of famous varieties of rhododendrons, all of which are rare in the world. When he is ready to succeed in Wang Jing, he might as well gather the different species of Goryeo in the north and south. It is the lord of the other country in the hall, and enjoys the famous flowers in the good night. Hurry! ”

The morning sun is shining, and everyone in the hall is arrogant. The sun pierced the tip of the sword, striking the eye.

Clear streams converge and merge into rivers. The river goes west and flows into the sea. Thousands of sails compete, thousands of armies compete. In the southern part of Goryeo, hundreds of large and small Japanese boats filled the coastal area. The navy of South Goryeo retreated step by step, and at the same time, a large number of naval reinforcements were brought in from all over the east and west.

A naval battle of unprecedented scale is about to break out.

At the same time, a smaller fleet sailed out of the harbor of Tsushima, avoiding the tense coast of Jeolla Road, pulling sails with the wind, making a far circle and anchoring at its intended location, on the shore of a desolate island.

At the same time, thousands of soldiers boarded dozens of ships in Pyongyang's port in an orderly manner.

If this is the time, pull your gaze from the land to the sky, see through the layers of white clouds, and look down. It can be seen that on the land of Haidong, where the mountains and rivers are magnificent, along the line of Wenchuan and Sui'an, all the way to the coast at the end of the south, in the territory of South Goryeo, there are three enemy armies acting openly or covertly at the same time.

The momentum on the Eastern Front was the greatest, and several bald-headed generals took the lead, leading the soldiers, like a red stream, rushing forward and running into the obstacles in front of them. And just behind the blocking city, the armies of South Goryeo, like small rivers, continued to converge in.

The atmosphere on the southern coast was the most depressing, and five or six hundred hostile ships, pulled up by cloud sails, could not be seen at a glance, densely gathered in a palm-sized sea area, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer. From time to time, small encounters took place, and from time to time a lone ship was attacked by the opposing side, or sank, or retreated in a hurry.

The Western Front is the most calm on the surface. If the army of Haedong is compared to a line, then the fortresses of South Goryeo are dots. This line, like a snake, winds through the mountains and forests, passing through the South Goryeo city along the way, because of the large number of thieves in the vicinity, the city is empty, and does not dare to rush out of the city to patrol, and the other is not expected that the enemy will go deep alone.

Seeing this line, the day is near, stretching, slowly but firmly. Counting the days, in less than three days, they may be able to reach the destination of their trip. But on the eve of their success, that night, their vanguard suddenly stopped.

Fang Mihan cautiously crouched on the ground, hiding his figure through the bushes. With him as the center, his nine subordinates also hid on the left and right, forming a fan. The thin monkey crawled over, touched him, and whispered, "Boss, it doesn't look like a Goryeo official." They have a variety of weapons, and their clothes are not the right color. No matter how poor Goryeo is, it will not even be incomplete in military uniforms. ”

A few hundred meters in front of them, at the pass of Hefeng Mountain, there were thirty or forty people scattered among them.

Most of these people wore Goryeo military uniforms, dressed as a dozen or so poor people, and carried weapons, either knives and guns of the Goryeo army, or sticks commonly used by the people. They had built a bonfire and were noisily roasting and eating. Not far from the stream, three or four horses leisurely bowed their heads and drank water.

Fang Mihan didn't speak, looked carefully for a while, and recognized the judgment of the thin monkey, this Biao man acted undisciplined, slept in the open at night, and did not even send a sentry, and there was no military flag, it really did not look like an official army in Goryeo. But if it's not an official army, what will it be?

"Probably a thief. Chief, you see, those guys are wearing Goryeo military uniforms that obviously don't fit. If I guessed correctly, eighty percent of the Goryeo army failed to exterminate them, but was annihilated, and the uniforms, weapons, and horses fell into their hands. Thin Monkey's analysis made sense, and Fang Mihan nodded in agreement.

He couldn't help but hesitate.

I have long heard that thieves are rampant in South Korea, and I didn't meet them along the way, but I met them here. It had only been dark for a short time, and I didn't know when these people would leave. The mountain pass they occupy is the only way to go. Fang Mihan said angrily: "Holy shit, the Goryeo officials and soldiers didn't see it, and a nest of bandits blocked the way. ”

"What should I do?"

The enemy is outnumbered, this bandit can defeat and destroy their Goryeo official army, and the combat effectiveness is not low, there are three or four war horses, and there must be cavalry. With a dozen or so foot soldiers, it is difficult to clean them up.

The so-called "it's not easy to clean them up", Fang Mihan is worried not that he can take them or can't take them, but that he is worried that if he can't annihilate them all, he will escape one or two on horseback, and it will inevitably leak the news. After Hefeng Mountain, it is Jinchuan, if this arouses Jinchuan's vigilance, the gains outweigh the losses.

"Wait and see if they leave after eating."

The bandits finished their food and lay on the ground. Fang Mihan saw that they had sent two or three sentries to climb to a high place, and knew in his heart that these men obviously had no intention of leaving, and that they were going to rest on the spot. The military situation is urgent, and a night is not to mention delaying the journey of dozens of miles. Fang Mihan was not very old, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he was very decisive, so he immediately made a decision: "After two quarters of an hour, wait for them to fall asleep,...... "Thin monkey, you take someone, before you do it, get rid of their horses." Not a single one is allowed to run! ”

His orders were scattered to the left and right, one by one, and soon everyone knew about it.

The night breeze swept the forest leaves, and the fragrance of flowers was fragrant. A few hares and pheasants are squirming, haunting far and near. The stream is murmuring, a yellow moon is bending, and the blue sky is suspended. The bright moonlight cast down, and the gang of bandits gradually turned from lively to quiet, the bonfire crackling and burning, and the sound of snoring faintly heard one after another.

In the bushes, the three old soldiers climbed the rocks with their hands and feet, and detoured back to the back of the bandit sentry, and the sentry fell in response. It was clean and neat, and it didn't lead to half a sound.

Fang Mi rarely succeeded in their hands, and made a look, the thin monkey cat bent on his waist, and another soldier, along the stream, dived to the side of a few war horses, untied the reins, and pulled back. After walking two or three steps, they were foot soldiers, and they didn't know much about horse nature, and a war horse suddenly stopped for some reason and let out a long neigh.

It was like a strong wine poured on fire, and like cold water poured into oil. The silent night suddenly messed up with guns and made a mess.

The bandits woke up from their dreams, touched the weapons around them, jumped up one after another, and looked around in a hurry. Some ran out, some drilled in, some ran to their horses, and some accidentally kicked the campfire. A man who looked like a leader spotted the Fang Mihan and shouted loudly in the Goryeo native language.

Fang Mihan understood two sentences slightly, and without saying a word, he led the remaining four people, picked up their knives and guns, and crashed into the formation. The three old pawns who touched the high place did not immediately participate in the battle group, and respectively held the retreat of this bandit. The thin monkey drew his short knife and stabbed it into the neck of the warhorse. Blood splattered all over his head, and the horses wailed. In the blink of an eye, he and another person killed three horses in a row, and they didn't stop, and then pounced on the last one.

The bandit leader shouted angrily and shot arrows with his bow. An arrow was fired, hitting the thin monkey's shoulder, and the thin monkey stumbled backwards due to the impact of the arrow.

His companion ignored him, did not look at it, but rushed and ran, stretched out his hand and grabbed the reins of the horse that had taken him away, and was caught by the horse, and his footing was unstable and he fell to the ground. He let the war horse drag him, and in the blink of an eye, he was dragged out of more than ten meters on the rocky ground. He did not cry out in pain, the short sword stabbed out, and the moment it reached the horse's body, the second arrow of the bandit leader arrived.

Fang Mihan and the other five people, taking advantage of their unpreparedness, entered the flock like a tiger, and in less than a moment, they killed seven or eight people in a row. He saw that the first arrow of the bandit leader had hit the thin monkey, and the second arrow had broken the reins of the horse that the thin monkey's companion was pulling. His heart jumped, and he secretly screamed that it was not good, but he didn't expect that this guy was a marksman.

His team has no archers, and if they fight, they will suffer too much.

The bandit leader must not be allowed to spare his hands again. At that moment, he abandoned his opponent, rolled on the ground, and reached for a piece of firewood. Firewood came from scattered bonfires, blazing. As if he didn't feel anything, he was not afraid of burning, grabbed it with his bare hands, and smashed it at the bandit leader with his backhand.

The bandit leader was not paying attention until the firewood was near, and he hurriedly took the longbow and tossed it aside. Sparks splashed everywhere, and Fang Mihan rubbed his body and pounced. The bandit leader had never seen such a soldier, and compared to the Goryeo soldiers, he was simply a heavenly soldier.

He was shocked and panicked, and he retreated again and again, screaming in anger.

Over there, the thin monkey steadied his pace, gritted his teeth, broke the arrow on his shoulder, abandoned the short knife, drew the long knife, and ,—— his companion who had just gotten up from the ground, his companion was covered in blood, and chased a few steps towards the fleeing war horse, and seeing that he could not catch up, the two turned around and rushed into the melee.

The war horse recognized the lord and ran to the side of the bandit leader.

The bandit leader resisted Fang Mihan's attack, and took the time to sprinkle a glance into the field, more than forty bandits, half of whom were dead. More than a dozen enemies, less than half wounded. What made him even more frightened was that those enemies, whether they were injured or not, were still fighting to kill, lest they look one step behind.

Under such a situation, it is foreseeable that it will only be a matter of time before his group of people will be wiped out.

Seeing that the situation was not good, he didn't dare to fight for a long time, so he avoided Fang Mihan's knife and threw the longbow in his hand to cover his face, so as to temporarily stop Fang Mihan's attack. He turned and fled three or four paces, turned over on his horse, took out his short blade, and stabbed the horse in the buttocks. The war horse was in pain, and neighed vigorously, like a wild horse that had escaped from the reins, and a gust of wind galloped out of the mountain pass.

Fang Mihan hurried two steps, couldn't catch up, and picked up the longbow of the bandit leader, but there were no arrows. He picked up his dagger and threw it, but it missed. The war horse is running very fast, and it is about to run out of the mountain pass, once the bandit leader is told to go away, it is bound to be difficult to hide his whereabouts, and even abandon his previous achievements.

At this critical moment, I suddenly heard a loud roar, like thunder. Everyone on the field couldn't help but let go of their subordinates and watched in unison.

But when I saw the mountain pass, there was a big man standing facing the galloping horse, and he did not avoid it. The galloping horse passed him sideways, and at the moment of lightning, the man stretched out his arm and grabbed the remaining half of the reins, and the muscles and flesh on his arm were raised, and he shouted loudly, and he actually dragged the galloping angry horse hard!

Fang Mihan was overjoyed and shouted his name: "Guo Conglong! ”

This man was Guo Conglong, who had joined the army in Pyongyang, and he was sent to the new army, and after a period of training, Deng She transferred him to the Wuya. This time he attacked Wang Jing, and specially transferred him to Yang Wanhu's department as a pioneer, with the intention of giving him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions so that he could be promoted.

Speaking of which, if he hadn't made trouble on the street at that time, Fang Mihan might not have been demoted. Since he joined Fang Mihan's team, Fang Mihan inevitably looked down on him a little, but Fang Mihan was a person, quite fine, and knew that this person would be reused by Deng She in the future, so he didn't feel sorry for him.

Seeing him make a move at this time, it was really extraordinary, and I couldn't help but be happy while rejoicing.

The horse galloped very fast, although it was dragged to a stop, due to inertia, it could not stop the body, the front legs knelt down, the hind legs were raised, and they fell to the ground, smashing up a cloud of smoke and dust. The leader of the bandits was thrown far to the side. Guo Conglong caught up with him in two steps, and before he could get up, he grabbed his short blade, grabbed his hair, turned around his neck, and cut off his head.

The dozen or so remaining bandits, how could they have ever seen such a warrior? I was scared of my guts. Without waiting for Fang Mihan to speak, he immediately disarmed and surrendered.

Fang Mihan ordered the thin monkey to escort them, clean up the battlefield, clean up the bloodstains, dig a large pit, and leave the bodies of the dead. They were vanguard sentinels, and they didn't have time to take prisoners, and when these dozen or so people had done all this, they were slaughtered, thrown into the pit together, and buried in the matter.

Fang Mihan's department, a total of ten people, did not die in a single battle, and the most seriously injured skinny monkey had an arrow in his shoulder and a knife in his left arm. After the wounded were bandaged, the group rested for a while, and then embarked on the journey again, rushing to Wangjing without stopping.

This place is less than 200 miles away from Wangjing.
