Just three days after Nie Zheng occupied Zengzhou, the territory of Chishui City. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chishui City, on the border of Annam, is separated from the neighboring kingdom of Da Viet by a tropical jungle.

The Chishui River, about 350 miles away from Zengzhou, if you go down a hundred miles along the river, you can enter the Mee River hidden in the tropical jungle, as long as you enter the Mee River, you will evacuate from the territory of Annam, because it is already the territory of the Da Yue people.

Sunset dusk, sunset shone.

At this moment, in Xi'an, on the Chishui River, tens of thousands of Dayue soldiers and horses, wearing battle armor and holding blades, guarded thousands of baggage vehicles, appeared on the river bank.

After a seven-day long journey, all the Dayue people's faces were covered with wind and dust, their eyes were bloodshot, and their expressions were extremely tired and low.

They knew very well in their hearts that this time the king ordered the whole army to withdraw to the Meh River, which was a helpless move, and it was also a retreat and compromise for all the Da Yue warriors to the enemy.

Although these Dayue warriors were extremely reluctant to evacuate, they still had to admit that they had failed in the face of those dragon and tiger rebels with mysterious firearms, and they were defeated very badly.

On the west bank of the Chishui River, 45,000 Dayue soldiers crowded on the long riverbank, waiting for the appearance of the tribal fleet.

At this moment, the mood of every Dayue person is very heavy.

This embarrassing evacuation is simply a shame for every brave and combative Dayue person. A shame that will never be erased!

Since they captured Annan County more than 20 years ago, they have been invincible and invincible, and which time was not the Han army that was cowardly and afraid of death lost their armor and ran wolf.

Especially in that year, the imperial court sent 100,000 troops to attack the Yue Kingdom, but in the jungle, thousands of their warriors killed corpses were all over the field, and there was no way to fight back.

At that time, all the Dayue people were proud to believe that the Great Song Dynasty was nothing more than that, and the elite soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were even more vulnerable.

Why did this group of cowardly and incompetent Han dogs occupy such a large and fertile land? Why do they pay tribute every year?

So soon, under the leadership of Sang Kang, they swept across the entire southwest in less than two years, completely encroaching on the entire Annan County.

All along, they have looked down on the Han people, despised the Han people, and even hated the Han people.

In their eyes, the Han people are pigs and dogs, a group of wreckage, not worthy of respect, nor worthy of equal treatment, in front of their Dayue people, all Han dogs should be reduced to slaves only for them to drive.

In fact, they have been doing this for so many years of occupation of Annan.

They are not afraid that these Han dogs will resist, because, with this group of cowardly and incompetent wretched, no matter how they resist, how can they be their heroic and invincible opponents of the Great Yue people.

Therefore, all along, when they faced the cowardly and incompetent Han people, their hearts would be filled with an extremely arrogant sense of superiority.

But now, the arrogance in their hearts, the sense of superiority in their hearts, because of the appearance of Nie Zheng, are all gone.

Ten days ago, when they learned that the hundreds of thousands of elite tribes led by Sang Kang were all killed by the Han people known as the "Dragon and Tiger Army" outside Yangzhou City, all the Dayue people could hardly believe that this was true.

1,000 iron bull heavy cavalry, hundreds of giant elephant cavalry, 50,000 silver lion armor, 80,000 tribal coalition troops, this battle can be said to have exhausted all the armed elites in Da Yue, which can be regarded as unprecedented.

But as a result, more than 100,000 people died tragically on the battlefield, and only a few thousand remnants fled back with Sangkang.

For the first time in their lives, they felt fear, cold-blooded and terrible from those dragon and tiger rebels.

Especially recently, among the retreating teams of the Dayue people, there are constantly people describing the tragic situation of the war outside Yangzhou City that day, those mysterious firearms, those earth-destroying explosions, and the roaring and crushing steel giants, all of which make these retreating Dayue people tremble in fear and their scalps are numb.

Now, they have completely lost their fighting spirit, and they only want to return to the territory of Vietnam as soon as possible and leave this terrible place.

The river is rushing and gushing.

Sang Kang, with the support of a group of Dayue generals, stood on a high slope on the west bank of Chishui, and everyone looked at the downstream of the river silently, their expressions were a little heavy and a little haggard.

Since the last battle outside Yangzhou City, Sang Kang was physically and mentally injured, and the internal injuries that were blasted out by the terrifying shock wave that day, although he had taken a large amount of elixir recently, he still did not get much better.

Sang Kang's face was still pale, and his qi pulse was also unstable, but his eyes were still as cold as before, especially when he thought of the fiasco that day, the vicious resentment that appeared in his eyes was even stronger.

Li Huairen, a scholar in white, also had a hard time during this time, there were many people affected by the super bomb that day, and he was also one of them, but his strength was relatively deep, so he did not die, but was injured in his internal organs.

Looking at the endless river, Sang Kang said expressionlessly: "How long will it take for Sang Long's fleet to arrive?" ”

"Wechen has just received a letter that Prince Long's fleet has entered the redwood forest against the current, and it is estimated that in half an hour at most, the fleet will respond."

Sang Kang nodded and didn't say anything more.

Suddenly, at this moment, a messenger suddenly passed through the tide of soldiers and hurriedly came to Sang Kang, "Report to the king, according to the letter, those dragon and tiger thieves have appeared thirty miles away with three thousand men and horses. ”

Hearing this, all the Dayue generals were shocked, and their faces changed dramatically.

Sang Kang's face was as cold as ice, and he said in a deep voice: "The thief is coming after him? ”

The messenger didn't dare to look at Sang Kang's murderous eyes, and said worriedly: "The thieves passed through the city, and left soldiers and horses to garrison, and these three thousand dragon and tiger thieves, all of them carried firearms, and tracked our convoy all the way, the enemy is violent, I am afraid that the comer is not good." ”

Hearing this, Sang Kang's face was cloudy and he fell into silence.

Seeing this, a Dayue warrior general volunteered to step forward and ask for his life: "King, thieves are so rampant, the barbarian is willing to lead five thousand armor soldiers to meet the battle, and please give the king an order." ”

"The king, please order, Ruan Huo is willing to lead three thousand dead soldiers to intercept and kill the thieves."

"Pew is willing to lead his troops and horses to meet the enemy......"

Faced with the desperate pleas of the generals, Sang Kang slowly closed his eyes and ignored them.

After being silent for a while, he took a deep breath, gritted his teeth in a hoarse voice, and said: "The order goes down, everyone gives up the carriages and horses, assembles lightly, and immediately goes down the river to meet the receiving fleet as soon as possible." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals were stunned for a moment, "Big ...... O king, give up all the chariots and horses, but the hundreds of carts of gold and silver ......"

"Discard them all!"

Sang Kang's face turned cold, and he roared angrily: "The thieves have fierce firearms, once we are caught up, we will not even have our lives, what do we need to do with gold and silver?" If you don't do it, believe it or not, the king has cut off your heads! ”

The generals trembled and nodded their heads again and again. "Yes, my lord, let's do it......"

Soon, more than 40,000 Vietnamese soldiers stationed on the west bank of the Chishui River all received Sang Kang's orders.

Abandon all the baggage of the carriage and horses, and quickly descend the river to join Prince Long's fleet as soon as possible.

All of a sudden, on the riverbank, countless Dayue soldiers abandoned their carts and horses, lifted the heavy armor they were wearing, and looked flustered under the command of their respective generals, quickly and incomparably along the rugged and difficult riverbank, scrambling to flee downstream.

Less than an hour after Sangkang's men and horses left the west bank of the Chishui River in a panic, there was a faint thunderous sound of horses' hooves on the avenue in the distance.

Thousands of dragons and tigers rode up smoke and dust, and finally arrived on the west bank of the Chishui River before nightfall.

Sigh!!!

With a soft drink, after Nie Zheng strangled the war horse, he waved his arm, and suddenly, the three thousand dragon and tiger elites who followed closely behind stopped their steps one after another, and cast their eyes forward in unison.

At this moment, the sky was dark and there was silence all around.

On the west bank of the Chishui River, which flows endlessly, a large number of cars and horses are scattered on the bank line of thousands of meters.

Seeing this scene, Nie Zheng's heart moved, and he instructed Xu Shijie, who was following behind: "Send someone over to check and see if there is any problem with those carriages and horses." ”

"Yes, Dashuai!"

After Xu Shijie heard the order, he immediately sent more than a dozen elites with high strength and quick minds, and quickly rushed towards those chariots and horses.

After some careful examination, these people went and returned. "Report to the marshal, those chariots and horses are left behind by the Dayue people, and there is nothing abnormal."

Nie Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you found gold and silver?" ”

"Yes, one hundred and thirty-two carts of silver, about one hundred and thirty thousand taels, thirteen carts of gold, thirteen taels per month, and countless other soldiers, armor, grain and grass materials......"

"Okay, this trip was not in vain!"

Nie Zheng was in a mood, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and under the escort of Shen Hongyu, Xu Shijie and others, he walked quickly to the river, and he was going to personally check the gold and silver in the car to see how much there was.

At this moment, several secret agents in charge of wind exploration suddenly rushed from the lower reaches of the Chishui River, obviously discovering important information.

"Report to the marshal, just now my subordinates found hundreds of Yue convoys that were gradually moving away, and the ships were full of soldiers, presumably those Da Yue people were so frightened that they abandoned their baggage and fled by boat after learning that we had caught up."

Hearing this, before Nie Zheng was in a good mood, he immediately raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha...... This group of Dayue monkeys has finally been driven back to the jungle by us, and from today onwards, the five cities and twenty-eight counties of Annan County will be completely the world of our Dragon and Tiger Army......"
