The Song army attacked at night and knocked out the Huizhou Navy Battalion in one fell swoop, all the warships were burned, and the shape on both sides of the Canglan River suddenly had a decisive reversal. The Huizhou army, which completely occupied the control of the water surface before, now understands what it means to take care of one thing and lose the other, and what it means to set up camp step by step.
In the past, they firmly blocked the exit of the Binshui River, and the Song army naturally could not frequently visit the other side of the Canglan River. Now the positions of the two sides have been reversed, and in just two days, the elite of the Song army, which is composed of three or four hundred people, has attacked the villages and towns outside Qianjiang on the other side of the river no less than ten times.
"Please rest assured, even if the last general is crushed, he will never let the Song army run rampant again." In the first battle of Shuizhai, Zhang Bangyan, who had just taken office and 'sewed' such a defeat, was directly thrown into the state prison by the angry Cui Gonglai. Now, after two days, he has been promoted and given a heavy responsibility.
Cui Gonglai gave Zhang Bangyan full authority to reorganize the Huizhou Naval Division, temporarily collect the civilian boats around the Canglan River to resist the frequent harassment of the Song Army's Boat Division, and then immediately allocate it to the Naval Division after the warships urgently manufactured by the shipyards in various places were launched.
Zhang Bangyan naturally 'smeared his liver and brain' and 'repaid him with death'.
"Cui Gong is coming! There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no way to break in to hell. You're looking for your own death! Walking out of the courtyard of the Assassin's Mansion, Zhang Bangyan, who was calm on the outside, rushed like a torch in his heart.
In the following three days, a large number of large and small civilian ships gathered outside Qianjiang City from the upper and lower basins of the Binshui River estuary, and Zhang Bangyan gathered some of the officers and naval forces who had been degraded during the reign of the Huangjiang River, and recruited veterans who had been discharged one after another in the past thousand years, together with the remaining more than 1,000 soldiers of the naval division battalion, and the new Huizhou naval division battalion still saw its embryonic form.
The safety on the other side of the Canglan River quickly improved after the collection of these boats, and Zhang Bangyan was rewarded by Cui Gonglai. The heavy rain came again, and the main force of the more than 100,000 Huizhou troops who had returned also returned to Qianjiang......
β¦β¦
Qianzi County, Gong'an County.
Then. The water surface of Sheyang Lake is drizzling, and the slight chill does not make people feel the cold of autumn, only the coolness of summer, and several small boats pass quickly on the surface of the lake, not disturbed by the fine rain at all.
The big lake that can't be seen at a glance, a radius of 100 miles, the first lake wave in the lower reaches of the Canglan River. For tens of millions of years, the water level of the lower reaches of the Canglan River has been stored, which is the most fundamental reason why the southern border of Huizhou has always been known as the land of fish and rice.
Surrounded on both sides, the hills are high. Dongping Beitan, a fat land. But the local people know that on this island deep in Sheyang Lake, there are hundreds of fierce water thieves who have been entrenched here for a long time. Encirclement and suppression are unfavorable.
However, these water thieves know the stakes very well, and know the truth that rabbits don't eat the grass next to the nest, and if they rob the neighborhood, they will lose their roots, so they don't fight places, and even the local gentry have deep secret connections. Only passing fleets are intercepted.
In the past, nine out of ten in the fleet were not locals, and even if they had a deep background and reported to the officials, few people from the Shangguan Mansion and the Inspection Department on the shore of Sheyang Lake worked hard to track down. Therefore, the vast majority are peaceful.
And if it really doesn't work, go ashore and hide, hiding cats. Anyway, a tattered water village is not worth 3,000 taels, and human life is more important. As for where to hide, the merchant ships and cargo ships plundered by the pirates. Whoever sells it will hide from whomever it is.
The people in the neighborhood are also very well-established. Because this group of water thieves has always only robbed foreign fleets, and many of their own children have joined the gang, it can be regarded as a tripartite collusion of the '** gentry', and it is impossible to suppress it, and the climate has been completed.
"This is Sheyang Lake? It's a great place. "At the bow of the ship stood a scribe in his thirties, admiring the beauty of the surroundings.
This Sheyang Lake, the area is vast, the scenery is beautiful and pleasant, the wharf on both sides is also planted with weeping willows, the grass is pointy, the breath of the earth and the water vapor in the drizzle blend with the nose, a breath with freshness.
"Mr. Hu, when we get here, what are we going to do next?" The accompanying Assassin Mansion guard asked in a low voice.
Eyes fell on the lake, Mr. Nahu said: "The roots of the water village are not on the small island in the lake, but in the villages and towns on the shore. I have already said hello to the sitting tigers when I came here, and they sent representatives to land on the island first, and the news has returned, so let's go and see you immediately. β
As a stabbing historian, Mr. Hu can 'not sit in the hall as the son of a daughter'.
on an island in the lake.
It is said that there are five large and small bands of water thieves in Sheyang Lake, the largest one has 200 small people, and there are more than 10 large and small boats, of course, the number of ships above the standard of medium-sized civilian ships is only a small four.
The leader's surname is Wang, his double name is Kaiyang, and his nickname is Shui Jiao.
Since last month, when the upper reaches of the Canglan River flooded, Wang Kaiyang has no more business. Because at this time, there were no merchant ships to go back and forth by water, and he was no stranger to this situation, and there would be a period of such a time on the Canglan River every year. But in previous years, such a period of time was a long time, but this year, more than a month has passed, and there is still no shadow of the end.
Wang Kaiyang not only rose up with a feeling of sitting and eating nothing. Today it was raining again, and he was patrolling the stockade on the island, which was not big, only three or four miles in radius, and there were many vegetable fields outside the village. The people on the island can get food from outside, but they can only be self-sufficient in vegetables. However, in this era, many farmers built a vegetable plot in their own fields to solve the problem of eating vegetables for the whole family, which was relatively common.
Wang Kaiyang is looking at the sky, when is this rain a head. This is a minion dressed in fast clothes who rushed to him and said, "Great boss, someone has come ashore to ask to see you, you see ......."
"Who is it? You want to come to see me, what is it? Wang Kaiyang asked.
"The big boss, that person only said that his name was Fan Jin, and there was another one, which should be an entourage. I didn't say a word more. β
"Fan Jin? Fan Ye? He's coming? Hurry up and please. Hearing this name, Wang Kaiyang was surprised, how could he ...... Then his face became solemn, and he immediately commanded.
A clipper, on order, quickly went out.
Half an hour later, the clipper came back, and two people came in with the water thieves, led by one of Wang Kaiyang's acquaintances, one of the sitting tigers who had been hiding behind the scenes, Wei Xu, who was pseudonym Fan Jin.
When Wang Kaiyang saw it, he greeted him with a smile: "Uncle Fan, rare guests, please inside." He really didn't know what was going on, it was Wei Xu who landed on the island in person regardless of the danger of exposure.
"Ann of the big boss. One qiΔ is fine. Let's talk inside. As soon as Wei Xu spoke, he first calmed Wang Kaiyang's heart. It's not that something irreversible has happened, it's not dangerous.
"What? San Lang led his men and horses to the sailor camp and became a military marquis? Wang Kaiyang was shocked, and then there was a look of envy in his eyes. It's good to have a piece of skin on the outside, and it's easy to wash white. Whoever is like himself, he is black and swarthy, and he can't wash it away.
"I heard that Song Shunzheng drove to the vicinity of Baoxian and Shuiyi, and the imperial court was the time to use the water division, if San Lang could make another contribution on the battlefield. In the future, he will be a great man. "The military marquis is already commendable to the gentry at the county and township level, and if it is a military Sima who takes a step forward, it is definitely the smoke of the ancestral tomb. It's like the original Zhu family. "Speaking of which, it's really enviable!"
As soon as he heard this, Wei Xu knew that there was a play. smiled, and said first: "The day before yesterday, there was news from the upstream that Song attacked the Navy Division Dazhai at night, and all the warships in the Navy Division Battalion were burned to the ground.
The water division battalion is going to prison for the Huangjiang River by the state pastor, and Cui Zhoumu has now appointed Zhang Bangyan, the military affairs of the original water division, that is, the Zhang Bangyan who came to Sheyang Lake from time to time to sweep, as the general of the water division. Reorganize the Mariners.
However, the state pastor is only Zhang Bangyan's general, and the soldiers and horses still have to be controlled in his own hands. Now Mr. Hu has sent out the doorman to shoot the sun...... This ...... like this."
Wang Kaiyang was angry at first when he heard the name Zhang Bangyan, but when he heard Wei Xu's words, he was stupid. There was a look of ecstasy on his face. said: "What my brother said is true? Does the governor really have this heart? β
"Of course. What kind of person is Cui Zhoumu, don't you know? Do you think he and Zhang Bangyan will be all the way? Relying on Zhang Bangyan now, it is just that the army is against the situation and it is difficult to govern, but it does not mean that the governor will really rely on him as the Great Wall. I thought it was a confidant. β
Wang Kaiyang nodded with joy on his face, Wei Xu said a reason. "But......" Wang Kaiyang then thought of Zhang Bangyan's fuck. That's no ordinary fuck. Wang Kaiyang was very suspicious of obeying orders under Zhang Bangyan and still on the battlefield. If Zhang Bangyan sees that he is not pleasing to the eye and finds an excuse to cut himself, even the state pastor is not easy to speak. During the war, it was too easy to find an excuse to cut off people's heads. And the state pastor may not necessarily blame Zhang Bangyan for being a little person in this stall......
Wang Kaiyang spoke out his concerns. "Brother, in the past, there were no water thieves in Sheyang Lake who were recruited to join the water division, and they were all made obedient, and the big boss and the second master not only did not win the wealth, but the brothers under him were split into pieces, and there was no power in their hands, and they were beheaded at any time when someone found a factor.
Even if you are interested and rely on a certain big family, you will do some unsightly things, and it will be difficult to have a good end in the end. As soon as I thought of this, my heart went cold. β
Wei Xu saw that Wang Kaiyang's face changed, suddenly happy, and suddenly gloomy, knowing that his ideological struggle was fierce. With a long sigh, he said: "I know your concerns, but the state pastor employs people regardless of their background, and the talented use them, so your worries are really unnecessary." β
"I came this time, but someone from above said hello, and the governor took a fancy to you. This is a great thing, you have entered the sailor battalion to train the navy, in this regard, as long as you have talents, not only yourself, but also your brothers can fight for a future, it is better than being a water thief here, right? β
"The governor took the initiative to send a guest to persuade you, that is, he attaches importance to you, so why should you worry more? If you're afraid you'll fall in the footsteps of those people, am I not afraid? The third child of my family is in it. Am I still going to lie to you? β
Hearing this, Wang Kaiyang was immediately moved, indeed, he didn't believe in Cui Gonglai, but he always believed in Wei Xu, and Cui Gonglai sent someone to invite him to invite him, this sincerity alone is enough.
"Brother, you don't need to say more, I can't trust others, will I still not trust you? I'll take my brother to Qianjiang with you! β
Changgang County.
The black pressure was overwhelming, and the 100,000 Sizhou army and the Jiazhou army finally caught up.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The sound of war drums and low trumpets resounded in the sky, and in the slippery mud, the army still swept forward like a tidal wave.
A big banner is waving in the gale, and the huge "Fan" character general flag is shining with an unstoppable light under the support of countless generals, majestic and majestic, and indispensable.
The main chariot will be left and right. Around the four sides. Fan Zhaoan sat in the car, but a majestic and terrifying momentum enveloped the whole army.
Shields buckle arms, knives and hands, guns like forests, arrows like rain, 50,000 Jiazhou troops dressed in iron armor, their gushing battle spirit pierced the sky! Because they had been running after Song Jun's ass for too long and too long, they were just depressed and angry. Let the 50,000 Jiazhou army be full of fighting spirit.
However, the naked reality gave them a slap in the face.
"Bamboo Forest Bridge ......"
"Immortals are ...... by bandits"
"Guyang Town was ...... by bandits"
"Bailou Township was ...... by bandits"
Wuwan Jiazhou drove from Pingba to the city of Changgang County, and before he had time to exert his thunderous might, the rear was first messed up by the Song army that attacked everywhere.
If it was yesterday and the day before yesterday, these places were robbed by the Song army. Even captivity, it will definitely only endure in silence. But today the situation is different, and the army of the imperial court is coming. So an urgent report was reported to Fan Zhao.
"Whoa......" Fan Zhao was furious, and in a fit of rage, he swept all the pen and ink and documents on the bookcase to the ground. Song is rebellious, and he deceives people too much. "If they don't come, they will be safe with the local townships, and they will arrive by themselves. Local towns and villages have been attacked frequently, and it is clear that they are slapped in the face.
Seven or eight villages and towns were killed in one day, although there were not many casualties in various places, and the losses were not large. But it stirred up the panic and commotion of the entire rear people. And Yan zhΓ²ng slackened the progress of his army to gather the people and Ding Zhuang. Even Ding Zhuang, who has already joined the army, has a group of people secretly running home, his hometown is not safe, who still has the heart to work with the Jiazhou army?
Fan Zhao was so angry that his eyes burst into flames. Your own army is coming, and you don't want to retreat. is still alive, but dares to go to the rear of the army to make trouble, I really don't know whether to live or die!
This is total contempt for oneself! Can't take it.
"Adults don't need to be angry, Song Shun does this because he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and his ambition is rampant. If you are already a dying person, why should you be angry with a dying person? The subordinates hurriedly persuaded him.
But Fan Zhao chased behind Song Jun's buttocks, and he was already obsessed with Zhu Biao, wanting to kill him and win what he wanted. Now under the overall situation of the three-way encirclement, he was slapped in the face, he was unwilling!
Where you lose face, you have to get it back, so .........
"Tonight, the army will rest overnight, and early tomorrow morning, select troops and horses to immediately divide up and march into the army, clear up the rebellion in various villages and towns, and stabilize the rear."
That night, the 50,000 Jiazhou troops rested all night. And the troops on the Song army's side also withdrew to the north of Changgang County to rest.
Both sides have been busy for a day, and everyone rests after eating and drinking.
Song Jun was not afraid of the Jiazhou army coming to sneak attack, he had locals as eyeliner, and Fan Zhaojun's every move was under his control. Compared with the local squires who remained neutral, those refugees who were taken in by the Song army were the ones who spared no effort to support the Song army. Fan Zhaojun is also a guest army for Huizhou, where will there be any secrets to hide?
Early the next morning, after breakfast, the Jiazhou Army marched as a whole force, and all the subordinates appeared, Peng Shaoguang, Hong Chengqi, Chen Dazhuang, Lao Zhiyuan, Liu Zhenying, etc. were all dressed in military uniforms.
More than 30,000 people drove out of the camp in a vigorous manner, leaving five or six thousand troops to guard the camp, while the remaining seven or eight thousand people were divided into five large and small teams of men and horses, and swept towards the towns and villages around the camp.
There were 2,000 people along the way, with bright armor and high momentum.
The army Sima Yang Hu led a group of soldiers first, the number of which was a full thousand, followed by Jiang Binzheng, the deputy general of his battalion.
A team of people passed by Guyang Town, which was robbed yesterday, at noon, and prepared to go in to rest and have a meal before continuing to copy towards the county seat of Changgang. But I heard the sound of drums, and then the town was full of people. It was the banner of the Song Army, but it was because it was not enough to pick it up once, so I came to visit it again this morning.
This team of six or seven hundred people is definitely an irresistible force in Guyang Town, led by a big man with a beard on his face and a ghost head knife in his hand. If he hadn't worn the Song Army's uniform, he would really be the image of a bandit and a bandit.
The Song army was small, but the morale was not low. When the drum sounded, the bearded man at the head raised his knife and shouted, and the six or seven hundred people rushed over.
This group of men and horses is only one-third of the number of the Jiazhou army, and they dare to snatch the beard in front of the tiger.
"Kill! Kill me with meβ" Yang Hu was furious.
"Kill, kill, kill......" The beard on the opposite side also rushed to the front, and he was very heroic.
Yang Hu and the beard finally collided together, the two of them immediately generalized, one step down, and the swords and soldiers met, but they were all shocked in their hearts, and they both felt that the other party was a hard stubble.
However, compared to the beard, Yang Hu's advantage here is much stronger. The soldiers and horses of Jiazhou were three times larger than the Song army, and it didn't take two quarters of an hour for the Song army to show signs of failure.
And the beard that was fighting fiercely with Yang Hu, during the fight, a cold arrow of 'whoosh' grazed the side of his head, and immediately hit one of his subordinates behind him, and the arrow pierced through the chest, and the person immediately fell to the ground. I almost lost my life!
The beard was not lightly hit by this arrow, and the ghost head knife in his hand was relieved for a moment, and the support should not parry Yang Hu's condescending knife in front of him, and was directly cut off a strand of hair by the blade on his forehead. If it weren't for the shrunken head for a split second, the head would have been almost cut off with a knife. Cold sweat suddenly ticked!
