Chapter 348: Crossing the River, Banning, Eliminating Pigeons, Night Attack

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Heavy dark clouds condensed in the sky, the east wind blew, and the pontoon bridge on the Luoming River swayed between the east wind blowing and the river flowing westward.

Zhu Biao's celestial phenomenon was only 18 o'clock, but he didn't delay knowing that a heavy rain was coming!

"The order went down, and the troops crossed the river overnight, and crossed the river—" A heavy rain would be an immeasurable trouble. If you want to get to Yandong as soon as possible, you must cross the Luoming River before the heavy rain comes.

The pontoon bridge on the river was built quite strongly, and the soldiers marching in pairs and twos were not as smooth as walking on land, but the speed was not slow. Zhu Biao is now very, very satisfied with the fruits of Fan Shixiu's labor in the past few days, the river surface of Yanping Wharf, which is more than five miles wide, and the hundreds of boats that built the pontoon bridge are all boats of three zhang long, and the paving of the bridge deck is two zhang wide, and the two people and two horses are wide and loose on it.

Even if you have to be cautious, you should be able to get the whole army through in three or four hours.

"Fan has a meritorious contribution to building the pontoon bridge, and the court will not forget it!"

Fan Shixiu, the leader of the Qingjiang Gang, who Zhu Biao still looked up to a year ago, now stood in front of him respectfully with his head bowed and his ears attached. Saying this sentence made Fan Shixiu smile with joy on his face.

did not pretend to be arrogant, but said it plainly and naturally. Zhu Biao's identity has reached the point where he can really look down on the Qingjiang Gang!

"I wish the general to fight for the country, make many meritorious deeds, not afraid of life and death, and not avoid hardships and dangers, this is the real hero of the imperial court. Fan just built a pontoon bridge, doing his duty as a countryman, why mention the word credit? Talk about merit in front of the general. Isn't it shameful for someone to go? ”

I don't know if what Fan Shixiu said is sincere, but at least it seems to be sincere. And as far as Zhu Biao knows, since receiving the official letter from the Prime Minister's Office, Fan Shixiu led a team to Yanping Wharf overnight, and has been eating and living by the Luoming River for several days. Be a dedicated and conscientious person!

In the second half ......of the night, the heavy rain finally fell.

The downpour poured down from the sky and poured on the coats, "popping". The water vapor quickly soaked the armor. Zhu Biao saw that the state and fatigue of the soldiers in the status column were inversely proportional and quickly pulled away.

"If you can't stand the cold, chew a chili, don't stop, don't stop—" The cries continued to resound in the ranks.

Taking advantage of the fact that it had just rained, there was no water on the official road, and the road surface was not penetrated by the rain, Zhu Biao did not stop in Yanping County to rest. On the contrary, after a short rest, the whole army rushed north. As soon as I walked more than ten miles, the rain fell!

"Let's go, let's go! Three days and five days under him. It's good for me to sneak attack—"

Zhu Biao had such a violent thought churning in his mind. The thought came this afternoon when dark clouds gathered in the sky. It's just churning. But once it rises, it can't be stopped!

As soon as it rained and became wet, the bows and arrows of the Hu people immediately softened. Hu Qi, who has no bow and arrows, is a group of wild wolves without claws, and their strength has plummeted.

Although the more than 20,000 horsemen behind Zhu Biao are only a new army, he is also full of confidence. Attribute Amplification of your own class - +20% Damage, +20% Speed, +20% Defense. This can completely transform an ordinary army into an iron-clad elite.

The 20% speed bonus is his biggest reliance on sneak attacks. Since crossing the Luo Ming River. All the way north! Kill Ji Yan and urinate a fart, and kill Hu Gou and lose everything.

"General Huang. I'll get your revenge! Secretly clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned white. Huang Shenggong is the first person to lead the way since Zhu Biao joined the army, and the first person to be sincerely grateful. If you don't take revenge, you are ashamed to be a man!

In Yanping County, before crossing the river, Zhu Biao asked his soldiers to send a message to the other side, and the military horses did not settle down in Yanping at night to rest, asking them to prepare dry food and water bladders and a large number of spicy and cold peppers, such as chili peppers. After crossing the shore and resting for a while, they rushed to Yandong without hesitation.

Yang Guangchun is also not in Yanping City, although he fought a big defeat and was erased from the hat of assassination, but in fact, Yang Guangchun, who bears the title of 'guilty and meritorious service', is still the boss of Yanzhou officialdom. This boss is now in Chong'an County, and there is only one Zhizhong left in Yanping City, and it is not worth Zhu Biao to delay the military plane to visit in person.

"Child, rude—" an official in Yanping City shouted angrily.

To the north of Yanping is Deng County, and beyond Deng County is Chong'an. The west side of Deng County is Xinping County, and it was because Zhu Biao did a group of mountain bandits in Xiaowangshan there that he received the C-level task of "Green Wolf's Revenge", and the killer brother he provoked got the "Xuanyin ** Smoke" that helped him survive the catastrophe several times in the future. Of course, there is also the trouble of the Liu family and the scourge of not getting rid of the roots!

The northwest of Xinping County is Qingxiang County, Zhu Biao's hometown; To the northeast of Deng County is Taichang County, the largest county in Yanzhou and even in the entire Northern Han Dynasty, and it is also the starting point when Zhu Biao first entered Luozhou.

Chong'an County. Yang Guangchun, who was awakened by the sound of rain in the middle of the night, laughed, looked up to the sky and laughed, and the rain finally fell, "God help me, God help me too-" God is raining! Is there anything more that can help Yandong right now?

Without bows and arrows, Hu Cai's combat strength dropped by more than half, and they directly cut off one of their arms, which was still the most customary and powerful right arm.

"Heaven bless, bless this rain for a few more days!"

Outside the city of Juyan. Ji Yan looked at the dense raindrops outside the tent angrily, and really wanted to hack God to death with a knife. It's so inadequate!

He had suffered losses under Wu Hengfei several times before, and even when his subordinate Hu Qi faced the elite border army infantry of the Han army coming from the array, he could only avoid the edge.

But finally, he finally waited for the day when Wu Hengfei was exhausted of his elite and strong troops, and he got two 10,000 cavalry reinforced by the king and the latest 30,000 tribal cavalry assembled on the grassland. The forces of the enemy and the enemy immediately turned against the sky. I have the capital and opportunity for revenge!

He quietly got the spring cold to retreat, waited until the grass grew and the warbler flew, and the lightning sent troops to surround Juyan City, and then gathered a large army to defeat the 30,000 infantry armor of the Han army that came to the aid and fled, and the killing was not an army. In one fell swoop, all the mobile forces of the Yandong Han army were destroyed. He also killed several Han army generals.

The Jingguan under Juyan City made Wu Hengfei, a great enemy, cry, and now the Han army in Juyan City is demoralized, and it has not been out of the city to fight and sneak attack for several days. He was about to mobilize troops to go south to plunder and kill the Han people, but it rained this time.

"Ahh Ji knew that the previous plan was no longer advisable. Without the help of bows and arrows, the Han militia could pose a certain threat to their own army.

Juyan City. Wu Hengfei looked up to the sky and sighed, it would be great if Yang Guangchun hadn't missed at this time. Take the opportunity to march and repel Hulu in one fell swoop. He will immediately withdraw from the General's Mansion in Juyan City and stop at Chong'an or Taichang. \ Unified dispatch of Yandong soldiers and horses.

The old opponent of Ji Chen has suddenly increased by 40,000 or 50,000 horses, and the ratio of the enemy's forces in Yandong has changed dramatically, and the original tactics need to be overthrown.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, and it is too late to say anything now, so we can only look at the reinforcements sent by the imperial court.

Wu Hengfei smiled bitterly again. When it came to the reinforcements of the imperial court, he thought of Zhu Biao, and from Zhu Biao, he thought of Huang Shenggong, an old subordinate.

"You can also look at it. I found such a good seedling for you! ”

The sky is bright. The heavy rain is still unstoppable, and there is a posture that is getting more and more intense. From time to time, there was a thunderclap or two in the sky.

Zhu Biao's whole army marched into a county town on the border of Deng County and Yanping County. More than 20,000 cavalry troops filled a small county town.

One by one, they rode out of the procession. The four gates of the county seat are closed, and no one is allowed to leave the city. Zhu Biao also instructed the county order that in the next three days, the county seat will not be allowed to enter or leave.

Such measures will not be implemented only in this one place, and the fast horses that were sent out just now are rushing to the counties and county towns in the future of Deng County, as well as Chong'an County, and all the territories on Zhu Biao's northern route will be under martial law for three days. The county seat is under martial law, as are roads and checkpoints.

Heavy rain fell from the sky. It is difficult to fly in the east and east of carrier pigeons, and all over the country is closed. At least in the short term, it can cut off the passage between Yandong Hulu and the north. It doesn't take much, just three days! It is not that the carrier pigeon cannot fly in the rain, but that it is unwilling to fly and is not used to flying. Unless you do special training, it is easy to get lost, and the speed should be much slower!

"Please rest assured that this official will not miss a thief to go north!" After reading Zhu Biao's letter, Taishou immediately gave an affirmative reply, and the leading lieutenant sitting next to him immediately got up. Block roads, checkpoints, and city gates, and he will personally sit in the army.

"Pass on my order, from now on, the four counties of Chong'an, Xinping, Yanping, and Taichang, and all counties and cities and villages above and below, traffic roads will be blocked! If there are those who dare to trespass, take them all and go to Chong'an! ”

"Humble command!"

In Chong'an, Yang Guangchun's orders were more thorough and domineering.

A day later, Zhu Biao led the army to Chong'an County, and the heavy rain weakened, but it was still falling.

"General Zhu, how do you grasp it?" Yang Guangchun looked at Zhu Biao eagerly.

"Don't worry, my lord, the time is in me, and I will win the battle!"

"Good, good!" Seeing what Zhu Biao said categorically, Yang Guangchun was greatly relieved. If Zhu Biao can win this battle, then Yandong is in a critical situation, and he will be able to come back if he is the top of the Yanzhou Assassin History.

On the occasion of parting, Zhu Biao said the last sentence to Yang Guangchun, which is very, very important for military secrecy. But unfortunately, he is also under threat, and he has not remembered this trick until now. "My lord, the speed of the birds is beyond the reach of man, and it is extremely difficult to prevent. Why don't you play the Ming court directly cut off the foundation, ordered the people not to raise pigeons, eagles and harriers, and those who dare to violate it will be punished for treason! ”

"Huh!? Good, good, good way. Magic formula, magic formula! This is the official who will write to the king—"

Zhu Biao turned over on his horse, waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go, let's go!" ”

"Drive, drive......"

"Driving ......"

"Driving ......"

Thousands of horses galloped, and 100,000 horses' hooves trampled on the muddy official road, but what was raised in the hearts of the ten thousand troops was a fierce fighting spirit and a desire for victory.

Ji Chen's army under Juyan City was more than 100,000, at least five times that of Zhu Biao's army. But if there is really no leakage of news, Zhu Biao is at least fifty percent sure that he will defeat the enemy with one blow.

Fifty percent of the certainty of defeating five times his own Hu Qi, don't say fifty percent, even if it is only thirty percent, Zhu Biao also admitted.

Lianping County, Shizhuang in the south of the city.

Shi Zongyuan's heart was filled with a deep sense of unease. How did the government block all the road checkpoints? Could it be that the Han army has made any big moves?

Shi Zongyuan was anxious, and since yesterday he has sent his son to investigate, but he can only be in the Shizhuang area, and if he goes out, he will bump into the officials and militia who set up sentry posts. As a result, after a busy day, he didn't find any news, and he muttered and anxious even more in his heart.

Da Hu is about to win, trapping Wu Hengfei's old thief, isn't the land of Yandong just letting the warriors of the Immortal Heaven gallop. It's just a coincidence that this rain is falling!

"Hurry!" Shi Zongyuan walked around the room in circles.

Outside the Zhuangzi. A group of officials led the militia, followed by a procession. In the heavy rain, everyone hid at home, and only they wore clothes and worked tirelessly in various villages.

But this group of people is the most resolute and reliable people in Lianping County, and each of them has a blood feud with Hu Lu. After Lin Yiqing received the second official letter from Chong'an, he clapped his hands and praised 'good'. This is a direct cut off one of the arms of the Hu Gou, and without carrier pigeons and other birds to report the news, it is not so easy to go back and forth in and out of the grassland.

It's a very simple measure. Why didn't anyone think about it before?

Lord Thorn Shi also deliberately said in the official document that there should be few ordinary people who like to raise pigeons. Especially carrier pigeons. That thing should not only be carefully cultivated, but also trained from time to time. If the people have that time, they might as well do more work and earn more copper. Therefore, if there are pigeons and harriers at home, they are all suspects, and they will be detained first.

And the rich and noble are the same, most of them raise eagle dogs, who raise pigeons and harriers! Although it is said that there is a suspicion of overturning a boatload of people with a pole, the necessary means are used when necessary. All are arrested. Wait for the future to identify one by one, and if there are innocent people, they will be released.

"Integrity. Does this Shi family really have pigeons? We are an ancestor, don't shake me! ”

"Oops. My king catches the head, I will not lie to you if I lie. In our area, Shi Zongyuan's family raises pigeons, and the people of the Shi family also train from time to time. Outsiders don't know, but our own people in this area know. If you really don't believe it, just find a random family, you ask! ”

"That's fine. The county order has an order, and those who keep pigeons and harriers at home will be detained. If there is an innocent person in the future, he will be released. Brothers, hold on to the guys, and let me go into the village and get people! ”

This scene in Shizhuang is just a microcosm of the urban and rural areas in various counties. Either exactly, or innocent, Zhu Biao burned a fire here with Yang Guangchun, but it soon burned all over the land of Yanzhou.

The carrier pigeon, a very technical job, suffered a near-extinction blow in the land of Yanzhou with Yang Guangchun's official document. The folk pigeon hobby is over, and only the ones they control in the official post station are left.

And as one after another ambushes are uncovered, it is believed that this measure will soon be set off in the entire Northern Han Dynasty and even the entire Northern Xinjiang.

Fifty miles south of Juyan City.

The heavy rain really made Hu Lu retract his claws, and Zhu Biao advanced to a place 50 miles away from Juyan City, and Di Feng was stunned that he hadn't hit a Hu Lu yet.

Braving the cold rain, the hard work of the days seems to have borne fruit. The whole army was indescribably fierce and passionate from top to bottom.

Cold, that's nothing. What is the significance of breaking the enemy's five times the enemy's own military exploits and solving the crisis of the Yandong war situation for the motherland, Zhu Biao has been instilled in their minds over and over again in the past few days.

A warrior who has been brainwashed by glory is not afraid of any difficulties and dangers.

A warrior inspired by glory can defeat a difficult enemy.

"General, it's thirty miles." Feng Enjiang was excited, and all the pro-army soldiers around Zhu Biao were excited.

The night was dark, and the rain was pouring down. Zhu Biao couldn't even see the outline of Juyan City, let alone the Huqi camp under the city. He just saw a familiar bush, and every soldier who walked back with him out of Yandong knew at this moment that he was only thirty miles away from Juyan City.

Xing Tianxiao led his subordinates to the forefront. After working with Zhu Biao for a while, he came to Zhu Biao's army again this time. When they met again, Xing Tianxiao was as shocked as Hua Changfeng.

But now, all distractions receded from Xing Tianxiao's mind, and a pair of eagle-eyed eyes stared at the front, paying close attention to every movement in the darkness ahead.

Twenty-five miles, twenty miles, fifteen miles......

"How-" A wolf howl suddenly came from the front.

Zhu Biao's brows furrowed, but then he opened up. There were only fifteen miles left, and such a close distance had already exceeded his previous expectations.

"Luo Yaxiu, lead the way to open the way." Zhu Biao did not hesitate to make a decision and immediately decided to launch a full-scale attack. Chen Mengren and Zhou Ziang led their troops to outflank them from the left and right. Move fast! ”

"No." The three of them didn't talk a little nonsense, and at this time, there was no more bloody thing that made them boil.

"Boom, boom, boom—" The sound of thundering horses' hooves sounded.

"Zhu Tong, follow me behind-" Zhu Biao took control of a battalion alone, as a reserve team, and after encountering obstacles, he led the army to bulldoze it.

There is a heart or an unintentional, one-to-five sneak attack, and the odds are still in hand. Fifty percent of the odds of winning are still not daring to fight, and they don't dare to fight such a battle, so what are you still messing with on the battlefield!? Go home early to wash and sleep peacefully.

"Kill" three battalions, 17,800 cavalry officers and soldiers, rushed straight to the city of Juyan in three ways, Zhu Biao led a team of soldiers and horses and then followed closely behind the Luo Yaxiu battalion.

"Kill!"

"Kill!" The sound of killing echoed through the night.

"What's going on?" Ji Yan, who was sleeping peacefully, was startled, and stepped barefoot on the leather blanket that had been soaked from the wet surface. I heard the sound of fighting, and the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, is it the reinforcements of the Han army?

Why is there no news at all.

However, time did not allow him to think about it. In the darkness of the night, the enemy is approaching like thunder. Ji Chen's eyes seemed to see the longing of the Han army's iron cavalry.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack—"

Your support is my biggest motivation. )
