"Put away your weapons and jam your bayonets. Get ready to go ashore! The squad leaders shouted over and over again, checking the soldiers' equipment one by one.

Liu Pet had already completed these steps, he leaned on the side of the boat, and turned his head to look at the lake where the fleet had just passed. There were many wrecks of ships sent by the Ming Sect to meet the Song army floating on the lake, which used to look like a lot, but now they are all tattered wood that is not even a trophy.

"Is this war?" Liu Pet couldn't help but compare the battle in his imagination with the battle he had just experienced, and finally determined that the gap between the two was too big.

"Liu Pet, I'll go ashore soon! Don't look at the lake. The squad leader's voice sounded in Liu Chong's ears.

“…… Be! Liu Pet responded. Being interrupted so suddenly, Liu Pet felt very unaccustomed. Turning his head to look ahead, Liu Pet found that his comrades-in-arms looked at him with a little mockery. In the army, Liu Pet was often scolded by the squad leader like this, which made him feel that the squad leader was deliberately targeting him.

The flotilla stopped at some distance from the shore of the lake, and small boats came and went. The troops disembarked according to the training and sat firmly in accordance with the balance of the middle line. Even if there is training, the situation is not good in actual combat. Many of the boats, as they were trained, either had soldiers who accidentally overboard, or even small boats capsized.

In the chaos, Liu Chong's boat was moving quite steadily. However, a small boat did not dare to carry ten people, only five. With the addition of rowers, the boat arrived on the shore, and after Liu Pet and others went ashore, it did not mean that the landing had been completed. They also had to find the assembly areas assigned to their troops by reading out the signs on them.

"Liu Pet, is this here?" The deputy squad leader looked at the comrades-in-arms who were scurrying around him like headless flies, and asked suspiciously.

"Deputy squad leader, this is written 12306." Liu Pet asked, pointing to the number on the sign.

The deputy squad leader carefully recognized the Arabic numerals on the sign and took out the note in his pocket. Contrasting the two, it feels exactly the same. These deputy squad leaders nodded, "It should be." ”

Liu Pet didn't want to say anything, to be more precise, he didn't dare to say anything. When he was at home, he was counted down by his father, and Liu Pet felt very aggrieved. However, when he really arrived in the army, Liu Pet found that if he showed his knowledge, he would be disgusted by everyone and criticized by the squad leader and deputy squad leader. If he had simply responded to everyone's questions, they wouldn't have been so disgusted. So Liu Pet at least thinks that what his father said is correct.

More and more troops went ashore, more and more shouts, and the number of reports came to mind in front and back. Just when Liu Pet thought that this kind of noise would make him faint, he saw that some troops were actually marching in line. Liu Pet was quite surprised at this time, he didn't expect that there were troops that had already been assembled. This kind of chaos made Liu Chong think that he couldn't gather all the personnel at all.

No matter what Liu Pet thought, as the troops left the assembly area in formation, the assembly area immediately seemed a little empty. The troops who came ashore later did not have to just look at the crowd and be confused. As the troops set off one after another, there were fewer combat units left in the open space. The people who come up next don't even need to look at the digital signs, just by looking at their faces to find the familiar team.

At this time, the squad leader finally arrived at the assembly place with his comrades in the squad with a dissatisfied face, and two of them were wet and obviously fell into the water. At this time, the spring was cold, and the squad leader asked them to quickly take out the military coat in the backpack and put it on, and at the same time said very unpleasantly: "When we arrive at the camp in a while, I will find a fire to dry my clothes." Alas......"

Looking at the appearance of the two of them falling into the soup, Liu Pet felt a little sad in his heart. He also fell into the water when he participated in training, it was still winter at that time, and he was soaked in the cold lake water, cold was still a trivial matter, and as the cotton clothes absorbed water, Liu Pet felt that he couldn't move at all. With the experience of that time, the ship is now transferred to take the backpack with cotton clothes and other things, and the people on the ship wear very simple clothes. Whether it's a person or a backpack falling into the water, try to avoid getting it wet.

Company commander Yang Tiexin has come to see several times, the squad leader led the personnel to arrive, and Liu Chong's company has also been assembled. After the last count, Yang Tiexin led the troops to the next assembly place.

In the afternoon of the next day, Du Ke Du Tianwang, who was in Nanchang, received news that the Song army had landed at Poyang Lake. This news made Du Tianwang frown, he knew that the Song army would definitely attack Nanchang, so he also prepared a strategy to meet the enemy. However, Du Tianwang believed that the Song army would go up the waterway and land near Nanchang before landing, which would save time and effort.

According to the landing point reported by Tanma, the Song army had to walk 100 miles to reach Nanchang. When Song Jun made the choice of seeking the near and far on his own, Du Tianwang felt a little panicked in his heart.

Du Tianwang reacted like this, and the other leaders of the Ming Sect were also puzzled. It took a lot of time just to sort out the thoughts, and after sorting out the thoughts, the Mingjiao people came to the conclusion that they would first withdraw the people sent out to ambush on the waterway, and at the same time send the exploration horses to explore again.

That night, the leaders of the Ming Sect discussed until late at night before they fell asleep. Liu Chong, a soldier of the Song army, fell asleep in a camp sixty miles away from Nanchang. Landing is a real problem, and unloading the animals is even more troublesome. However, it is not possible to use livestock, and the artillery carts in the army cannot be pulled by manpower, so they have to use donkeys to pull the carts. Song Jun's donkeys were all sturdy, so they were larger and more laborious to transport.

Early the next morning, the troops were already in order. After eating breakfast and bringing the marching equipment, the troops began to set off for their destination, Nanchang City. There was nothing to mention about the whole march, and the troops marched according to fixed steps. During the arduous march, the military band often played some cheerful marching songs, and when the attention was paid to the music, even the fatigue seemed to be temporarily expelled.

It took eight hours for the troops to complete the sixty-mile journey. When he saw Nanchang City clearly in the afternoon, Liu Pet himself felt very surprised. It is said that the rebellious Mingjiao was very powerful and numerous. Unexpectedly, the Song army arrived at the city of Nanchang in just two days, and the next thing to do was to attack Nanchang.

Du Ke Du Sect Leader didn't expect the Song army to arrive at Nanchang City so suddenly, and from the morning, a horse had come to report that the Song army had set off for Nanchang. At noon, the scouts sent out early in the morning came panting to report that the Song army was only about 20 miles away from Nanchang City.

In the afternoon, Sect Leader Du no longer needed to visit the horse, he looked down from the watchtower in Nanchang City, and he could see the banner of the Song army not too far away. Looking at those Song Jun who were moving neatly, Sect Leader Du felt very surprised. The biggest feeling in his heart was 'it shouldn't be like this.'" After all, it was a distance of 100 miles, and it would take two days for ordinary people to finish walking, and there was no reason for tens of thousands of Song troops to arrive so quickly.

Turning his head to look at the head of the Ming Sect who was looking at him, Sect Master Du was also puzzled when he saw it on their faces. At this moment, a nameless fire immediately arose in Sect Leader Du's heart. This group of useless guys all felt that it would take three or four days for the Song army to arrive in Nanchang, which made Du Tianwang also make a wrong judgment. If they had known that the Song army was moving so quickly, they would definitely have a better response.

However, Sect Leader Du knew that it was completely useless to reproach everyone, so he ordered: "Hurry up and let the brothers outside the city rush back!" ”

There were 30,000 people in the Ming uprising, and in order to meet the Song army, Du Ke arranged them on both sides of the waterway from the Gan River to Poyang Lake. The Song army came so quickly, many of those troops were still on both sides of the Gan River, and there were no more than 10,000 troops in the city. Seeing that the Song army outside the city had more than 10,000 men, Du Ke felt that he needed to let these people come back quickly.

As soon as the order was given, a shrill trumpet was heard from under the city. Du Tianwang and the others turned their heads to look, and saw that the Song army had no intention of camping at all, and they went straight to Nanchang City.

The urban area of Nanchang in the Song Dynasty covers an area of 14~16 square kilometers, with 16 city gates, which is the largest period of the ancient city of Nanchang in history. One of the problems with defending such a large city is that it requires a lot of troops. The Song army did not start a siege, and according to their previous preparations, they launched an attack on the three gates in the east of the city. Although the sun was already setting in the west at this time, Division Commander Luo Xiaoluo still decisively gave the order to attack.

Liu Pet followed the troops to the city and lined up. Although the Mingjiao people at the head of the city also began to appear, in Liu Chong's view, they were not so much a fighting force as a group of peasants watching the excitement. The Song army only hit the city wall with a cannon and did not dare to show their heads.

The demolition troops, under the cover of the troops, rushed to the city gates, ready to blow them open with explosives. Just as Liu Pet was waiting to hear the earth-shattering loud noise, he saw the Song Army's demolition team push open the city gate. It turned out that the city gate that looked closed did not have a door bolt.

Although this meeting made the troops stunned for a while, everyone came to fight after all, even if they thought it was very incredible, the troops still reacted. Yang Tiexin rushed forward with his troops. Liu Pet ran quickly with his comrades, they rushed into the city gate, passed through the doorway, and then clashed inside the city.

The road to the upper city was next to the city gate, and Yang Tiexin led the troops to rush up the city wall along the road. At this time, the Mingjiao people in the city did not know what was happening, and it could be seen from their stunned expressions that they were very surprised at how the Song army suddenly entered the city.

"Kill!" Yang Tiexin didn't give these Mingjiao people a chance to continue thinking, and as he shouted, Yang Tiexin raised his gun and shot.

On the third day of the second month of the fourth year of the Great Song Dynasty, Sect Master Du Ke experienced a very terrible day in his life. On this day, all the news about Song Jun was beyond his imagination. And the fact that the gate of Nanchang City did not bolt the door from the inside was beyond his expectations.

The battle with the Song army lasted from the afternoon to late at night, and Sect Leader Du painfully found that he now had only two options left. Either leave immediately, or face the situation of being seized by the Song army. Sect Master Du didn't want to leave, and all the money he looted was in the yamen of the palace. Because the speed of the Song army's attack was beyond his expectations, Du Tianwang did not make preparations to carry things in advance.

In the end, Sect Leader Du finally decided to prioritize himself first in this chaotic time. He ordered his troops to break through the three gates that were still in their hands, and Sect Master Du himself took the lead in getting out of the city. Looking back at Nanchang City in the dark night, Sect Leader Du suddenly had a strong feeling that the thing he had conquered Nanchang was simply a dream. Maybe he was just dreaming at home on the shore of Poyang Lake at this time.
