Hearing the urgent report of the announcer, the banquet was suddenly a little panicked, the opponent was killed, what should I do? Everyone looked at Mahi Cao.

"Servant Shooting Continent, Servant Shooting Continent again!" Ma Xicao's fat face turned sideways, and he said hatefully, and was about to continue, but he remembered something, turned to Lin Feng, and asked softly: "Lord Lin, Xiguang Xiao'er won a game by luck, I don't know what Lord Lin thinks about the next battle?" ”

In August last year, Ma Xicao led his headquarters to attack Ma Xiguang, and after the defeat in the battle of Fushu Zhou and returned to Langzhou, he continued to gather troops to improve his armor and plot again.

It refers to the center of the Xiangjiang River in Tanzhou (now Changsha, Hunan), which is formed by the accumulation of sediment dumped by the Xiangjiang River in the process of northward travel, and has successively been named Orange Island, Servant Shooting Continent, Niutou Continent, Water and Land Continent, and Dwarf Island. In later generations, because of "Qinyuan Spring? The word "Changsha" was widely circulated, and "Orange Island" (Orange Island) became the official name.

Lin Feng stood up, arched his hand at Ma Xicao, and said loudly: "Lin is a newcomer, and he is naturally a guest at his disposal, please make a wise decision to Master Ma, and Lin is a good student to study and assist!" ”

"Lord Lin is really polite! Then Ma was abrupt once! Come! Ma Xixu stood up and shouted loudly, "Point the soldiers and horses of Qilangzhou, send Meizhou to meet the enemy, and see what Liu Yanyan is capable of?!" ”

Taking advantage of the panic of the people on the table, Lin Feng walked up to the middle-aged general who had just come out to fight, and bowed, "May I ask what to call this hero?" ”

"Don't dare to be, command Wang Kui." The middle-aged general was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied with a salute in return, while staring at Lin Feng curiously.

Originally, Wang Kui, Panlong and others were attacking the front line, but they were summoned back by Ma Xicao and the fast horse to meet with the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and they were originally angry. But now that Lin Feng is not commanding the front-line battle, and there is a group of tigers around him, he is also relieved.

"Lin saw that General Wang acted calmly, bravely and without fear, and he must be a talented man, so he admired him, and asked the general for more advice!" Lin Feng continued. Seeing that Lin Renzhao was so powerful and dared to step forward, how could he have two brushes, Lin Feng intended to befriend him.

"Don't dare, don't dare, I have admired Lord Lin's reputation for a long time, and I can see it today, and it is really extraordinary." Wang Kui hurriedly replied politely.

"Then let's go all the way, and Lin will ask for advice at any time!" Lin Feng laughed.

Lin Feng was starting, and was caught by Ma Xixu, who was hurrying over, he stared at Lin Feng with a concerned look, and said: "Lord Lin, the front line is dangerous, and Lord Lin will stop in Langzhou for a while, and it will not be too late to wait for the Tang reinforcements to come to the front line." ”

Lin Feng knew that Ma Xixu was a little drumming in his heart, and rushed to ask how many reinforcements there were, and pointed to Lin Renzhao, who had already begun to sort out the ordnance, and then pointed to the direction of Wuchang in the northeast, Da Lu smiled and said: "The thirty tiger ben accompanying by Lin can all be one enemy ten, and they can be compared to at least a thousand troops on the battlefield!" In the rear, the 30,000 elite soldiers under Lord Liu Renzhen are ready to go! ”

Ma Xicao was overjoyed, and immediately his eyebrows fluttered. Don't look at the fierce competition between the Ma brothers, the real face-to-face investment of troops is only tens of thousands, and what kind of concept will it be if there are 30,000 elite soldiers.

Ma Xicao left behind to command Wang Kui and others to gather the army and prepare to set off, and personally led Lin Feng out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Lin Feng thought that he had placed his own people to the front line immediately, but Ma Xixu led him to the door of a large mansion on the east side of the Prime Minister's Mansion, saying that this was Lin Feng's temporary settlement place in Langzhou.

At the gate, an old housekeeper led a group of maids and old women were waiting there, and when they saw Ma Xixu's carriage, they immediately lined up and kowtowed, shouting in unison: "Welcome to the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, Lord Lin, the little ones knock!" ”

Lin Feng couldn't cry or laugh, grabbed Ma Xicao, and said loudly: "Lord Ma, the military situation is like fire, and don't say anything to rest, can Lord Ma explain to Lin what the battle situation is ahead?" ”

Ma Xicao waved his hand and motioned for a group of subordinates to come and move the belongings on the three carriages behind him, and said: "In June, our army conquered Yiyang (now Yiyang, Hunan) and defeated Chen Wall, the commander of Tanzhou; In July, it attacked Ditian (about southwest of present-day Yiyang, Hunan). In August, he broke through Ditian, killed the town general Zhang Yansi, and killed the reinforcement commander Huang Chuchao.

However, after the First Battle of Fushazhou, all our troops retreated, and Xiguang Xiaoer sent Yanei to command Cui Honglian to lead 7,000 troops in Yutan (now southeast of Yiyang, Hunan) to contain the armies of all ethnic groups attacking by our army on land; Liu Yanyao, the commander of the Zhan Yi capital and the commander of the camp in Langzhou, and Zhang Hui, the commander of the Ma army, led the army to divide the troops and march north. At present, Liu Yanyao has led more than 10,000 elite troops and 150 warships to the area of Meizhou (now Hanshouxi, Hunan) along the waterway. ”

"Then Lin will not settle down, and directly lead the team to Meizhou!" Lin Feng didn't look at the courtyard, and waved his hand to signal a group of brothers to turn south, ready to go out of the city and get on the boat.

Ma Xicao saw that Lin Feng had made up his mind, so he had to let go, and shouted loudly: "Lord Lin will take the first step, and wait at the Langzhou Wharf, and Ma will arrive later!" ”

Lin Feng waved his hand at him and strode south.

The wharf outside Langzhou City was already in chaos, full of soldiers running around and officers shouting loudly.

Lin Feng showed his name as the envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty and directly boarded a large warship. As soon as he got on the ship, Lin Feng found the crew member in charge of procurement on the ship, and asked him to take Wei San and a few people to search for pork belly as much as possible nearby.

It wasn't until late evening that Wei San and the others rushed back, carrying a sack in their hands. At this time, Ma Xicao also sent someone to find Lin Feng and the others, and respectfully invited Lin Feng and the others to get on his own warship.

Lin Feng did not refuse, and led the team to walk with the people to the most eye-catching five-story warship on the shore, and saw Ma Xixu, who had also changed into a military uniform.

Not long after, led by a few small boats with torches, more than 30 warships assembled outside Langzhou City slowly started and headed east in the night. The 5,000 infantry, which had already been reorganized, marched at the same speed along the south bank of the Yangtze River.

Lin Feng and his group, like those who had nothing to do, practiced fighting for a while, then found a cabin and fell asleep one after another. Lin Feng looked at Li Congqian, Chen Fei and a few other children who were a little excited, and told them to go to sleep quickly, and he also collapsed in the corner of the houseboat with his clothes.

In the early morning of September 16, when Lin Feng woke up with his brothers and stepped onto the deck, there were only a few yawning soldiers on the entire ship.

The breeze that had been starting since last night had increased significantly, and the autumn wind from the southeast blew Lin Feng's sideburns hair flying.

Lin Feng pressed his hair into a bun, looked up at the sky, the sky was full of dark clouds, and then looked at Lu's right hand, the Meizhou city wall not far away was just a piece of black pressure, and there were two large battalions of similar size stationed in the east and west of the city, needless to say, they were the infantry battalions of the two armies of Tanzhou and Langzhou.

Not long after, the soldiers on both sides of the ship and on the shore were all making fires.

Just after the sound of the hour, the war drums on the fleets on both sides played three links at the same time, and a major war that would determine the future situation of the Chu State was about to begin.
