When there was no enemy in front of the Zhao family's army and horses, and Tianjin City had not yet arrived, Ji Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then beckoned everyone to set up the banner of the official army.

The speed of the horse's advance also began to slow down, taking advantage of this opportunity to allow the mounts to breathe, and at the same time to replenish them with some food, etc., by this time, the cavalry of the Zhao family army was a little hungry, but no one sent the multigrain cakes to their mouths, they were all broken and fed to the mounts.

As soon as the banner of the official army was raised, it was much easier to walk on this official road, and the rout behind had not had time to catch up, and the others did not know that the official army in Jinghai County had been defeated, in fact, even if Ji Xiang directly told the passers-by or people who had not seen it in person, no one would believe this, there were more than three times the advantage, and there were elite border troops, how could they be defeated and lost.

Just swaggering forward, almost when you can see the city of Tianjin, the boats on the roadside canal began to increase, seeing this scene, even if Ji Xiang was nervous, he couldn't help laughing, the official army only began to transfer grain and grass in Jinghai County at this time, but it was really calm, there was nothing wrong with such an arrangement, it was a step-by-step arrangement, because no one could have thought that the official army would lose so quickly, it would be defeated so badly, and no one could have thought that the cavalry of the Zhao family army had been killed.

When the horse team led by Ji Xiang appeared near the Caoyun Wharf in Tianjin, no one cared too much about it at all, the flag was the flag of the official army, and the cavalry on the horse must be the cavalry of the official army, and even many people were too lazy to take a second look, and subconsciously felt so.

When the distance is really close, Ji Xiang is not in a hurry to rush, and approaches in a passable formation, once someone approaches, he will scold and scold him loudly and loudly, but he is full of officers and soldiers, there are hundreds of officers and soldiers on duty on the Caoyun wharf in Tianjin, and they are not guards, but supervisors, so that the wharf can load grain faster.

"It's a Xuzhou thief!"

"How is that possible!"

After the brigade led by Ji Xiang arrived, the official flag was thrown directly to the ground, and the blood stains on the cavalry of the Zhao family army had been killed, and the cavalry themselves and the mounts were sweating, but even if they saw this, the officers and soldiers guarding the dock still didn't believe it, according to their ideas, the thief army would only be surrounded and eaten by the officers and soldiers, instead of a surprise attack here.

When the cavalry of the Zhao family army rushed up and began to chase and kill, the officers and soldiers here did not have the slightest will to fight, and immediately scattered and fled, not to mention the people on the dock, not to mention the people on the dock, the ships transporting grain were also desperately sailing away, who would dare to toss here.

The cavalry of the Zhao family army was on standby, and the rest were divided into ten cavalry and five cavalry squads, searching carefully on this Caoyun wharf, not seeking to kill the enemy, but to drive everyone away who did not have time to run.

"Fifth master, do you want to carry the grain bag to build fortifications, you did it when you were in Linqing." The first regiment is Xu Yong asked for instructions.

"No, the most officers and soldiers in Tianjin City are 4,000, of which less than 500 cavalry, what are you afraid of, if we set up fortifications to defend it, we will limit ourselves!" Yoshika simply refused.

Ji Xiang looked at the cavalry behind him who were taking turns to prepare and patrol, and then looked at the city of Tianjin not far away, and said with a smile: "They don't know that the official army has been defeated, so this place where the grain is stored is a battleground to defeat this first wave, and when they know the news, we will have nothing to worry about!" ”

In the face of the general trend, there will be no surprise in the reaction of the officers and soldiers, although the sky is about to be dark, but you can still see the cavalry sent by Tianjin City in a circle to the south, presumably to report to the "official army camp" over there, this is where the grain and Taiwan camp is located, there can be no mistakes, with the strength in Tianjin City is not enough, Jinghai needs to send troops back to help, but it is difficult to say whether the messenger sent can rush back in time.

After sending someone to send an urgent letter out, the officials and soldiers in the city did not send troops out, unlike the Zhao family army, who often fought at night, for the vast majority of officers and soldiers, as soon as it was dark, everything was quiet, and everything had to wait until dawn to do it.

Ji Xiang settled the raided troops to rest, there is indeed no shortage of grain and grass supplies and the like, even pots and stoves can be found, and they have eaten dinner in shifts, and then rest in shifts at night, and they must keep half of the men and horses on duty at any time, and the people who sleep and rest are also armored and weapon-free.

The official army did not send soldiers and horses to attack at night, and the distance between Tianjin and Jinghai County was too close, even if the enemy occupied this grain wharf, the official army brigade in Jinghai would have enough time to return and extinguish it.

After a day of fighting, everyone in the Zhao family army was tired and abnormal, and in the first half of the night they could withstand the excitement, and in the middle of the night, many people couldn't help but doze off, although they were desperately alert to their eyes wide open, and they fell asleep in a daze while standing on the grain tun, and the only reason to stay awake was that the company was constantly patrolling, and when they saw the drowsiness, they slapped it, and then slapped themselves from time to time.

Tianjin is the confluence of nine rivers, known as the nine rivers gather here, but now, we only know two big rivers, one is the canal from south to north to the west, the other is from Tianjin City to Dagukou and then into the sea of the Haihe River, the two rivers meet under the city of Tianjin, Tianjin Caoyun Wharf is actually also the wharf on the Haihe River, the ship from the sea to the right size will be loaded and unloaded here.

During the day, Jixiang's team showed their tracks, the boats fled without a trace, and the ships sailed away, and the Zhao Jiajun didn't pay attention to it, it was best to be quiet, but in the second half of the night, the Zhao Jiajun soldiers on duty saw the lights flickering in the direction of the Haihe River, and they immediately became nervous.

Before nightfall, Yoshika had already made arrangements, if there was any movement on the river, he should report directly to him, when the news arrived, Yoshika was leaning on the haystack to nap, hearing this report, Yoshika picked up directly from the ground, called the two companies on standby, and walked together in the direction of the lights.

Originally, the vanguard cavalry of the Zhao family army strictly forbade the lights, but at this time, a vacant lot was cleared on the bank of the river, and three piles of firewood and grass were placed at equal distances to light the fire.

By this time, even the most ignorant of it understood that this was a mutual confirmation code, and when the fourth bonfire was lit and then extinguished, one could see the lights on the river one after another, and by the light of this fire, a dozen medium-sized ships could be seen coming one after another.

"Bonfires are lit along the shore to guide the way for ships!" Yoshika commanded in a muffled voice.

When he gave the order, the soldiers who were confused by drowsiness and emergencies did not react, and Ji Xiang couldn't help but raise his voice: "Our own boat, don't be confused, otherwise we will wait to be whipped and marched." ”

Hearing Ji Xiang's words, everyone was stunned at first, and then let out a low cheer, although all the way to the north, but after all, it was a lone army in the enemy territory, and now when they arrived in Tianjin, they heard that there were their own people's sea ships to respond, and the worries were all gone, and they felt relieved.

Although it is inconvenient to sail at night, there are bonfire lights, and the boatman is careful, there are no twists and turns, the boats are all leaning on the pier, each ship puts down the pedals from the boat, and there are people on the boat who go down, it can be seen that the people on the boat are also very careful, seventeen boats have a total of five people, and the rest are on guard on the ship, the sails are half lowered, and they are all holding weapons in hand.

The people on the boat were heavily guarded, and the soldiers of the Zhao family army on the shore did not dare to slack off, but most of these soldiers who followed Ji Xiang's rapid attack on Tianjin walked from Zhao to the northeast and west, went to many places, and saw many people, and soon recognized some familiar faces, including the Zheng family's gang, the Yu family, and the Zhao family's own army, and there were also chanting down on the boat: "That's right, it's the fifth master!" ”

After the code before, they recognized each other's appearances, and the atmosphere relaxed suddenly, and the Zheng family's gang was obviously a little restrained, but the one who got off the boat sighed: "Your general has really made a big situation!" ”

The Yu family is talking a lot, the expression is complicated, but the Zhao family's own sailors and crews are full of joy, their own soldiers and horses have arrived in Tianjin, it is conceivable that the front is all the way to victory, this is less than two days away from the Beijing division of Tianjin, the Zhao family army has already hit this side, is it still far from achieving great things?

"The general is mighty, we were still a little worried, but now we are really relieved!" The people led by the Yu family said that Zhao Jin called himself the general of Xuzhou, but now outsiders add the word "big" to their names, and everyone feels that they are not called so, and they are not worthy of Zhao Jin's current achievements and strength.

The person who spoke at the head of the Yu family had a flattering and flattering look, but the Yu family shipwright and sailor behind him whispered, saying that they were already a family with Xuzhou, but they were just tossing and turning, and I don't know how many rich and noble benefits have disappeared, what a bother.

"We've been waiting here for some days, for fear that the general's soldiers and horses won't come, and I'm asking every day, but there is no reliable news, just worrying, a few families are discussing whether to go, or send people along the river to inquire about the news, who would have thought that the general would really come over, it's really amazing, don't see it with your own eyes, it's really unbelievable!" Compared with the gains and losses of the Yu family, the flattery of the Zheng family is much more relaxed, and everyone knows what it means for Xuzhou soldiers and horses to come here.

Ji Xiang smiled and nodded, but said in a loud voice: "Everyone, my eldest brother has broken the official army in Jinghai County, and he is about to pull out the camp and go north tomorrow, as early as tomorrow night, and arrive here at the latest in the morning after tomorrow!" ”
