Zhu Chenhao's eyes were split, and he roared and rushed to the side of the boat, but when he saw the black water soup rolling down, how could the two people who fell into the water have half a trace, and if they fell into the water in such a place, it was difficult for the gods to save them.

"Save people, save people." Zhu Chenhao roared loudly, and the guards and entourage on the side were busy using bamboo poles to scratch things into the water, Zhu Chenhao thought they were not working hard enough, raised his feet and kicked an attendant into the river, and personally grabbed a long bamboo pole and fished it into the water, which was extremely crazy.

Although Liu Yangzheng, Li Shishi, Wang Lun and others were shocked by the occurrence of the accident, they were very sober, people can't get it, they have been defeated on the battlefield, and it is pointless to stay any longer.

"Order, collect the soldiers, and return to Anqing Mansion immediately, come and help the emperor to enter the cabin to rest." Liu Yangzheng ordered.

Zhu Chenhao roared angrily: "I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving." ”

Liu Yangzheng hesitated slightly, and then heard Li Shishi shout: "Don't you help the emperor enter the cabin?" What are you doing? ”

Several guards finally stepped forward to hold the struggling Zhu Chenhao with their hands and feet, and dragged him into the cabin, Wang Lun immediately ordered to send out a light signal, ordering the remaining boats on the river to quickly gather and go upstream, and retreat with difficulty in the night.

……

The battle on Meizizhou was nearing its end, and the rebel soldiers who had no fighting spirit were useless even if they still had tens of thousands of troops, their minds had been destroyed, and they had no desperate intentions at all; The officers and soldiers on the island easily resolved the battle, and the rebels who resisted sporadically were quickly slaughtered, and the rest were some unmotivated surrenderers.

Of course, Song Nan did not aim to kill, killing was for victory, in order to destroy the fighting spirit of the rebels, in the final analysis, these rebel soldiers were innocent, but when they held weapons in their hands, they were worried, but once they lost their weapons and knelt in the muddy water, they were just ordinary pawns.

When all the fights on the island had subsided, Song Nan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves were also relaxed, looking up at the sky, there was already a fish belly white in the east, and this battle actually lasted all night, and the sky was about to dawn at this moment.

The sky brightened quickly, and soon the surrounding scenery could be seen clearly, with the help of the light in the morning light, Song Nan looked at the river in the distance, this look, even Song Nan himself was shocked. More than 100 warships on the river were blocked by the sunken shipwreck, and thick smoke and fire were rising from the hull, dozens of warships were capsizing and sinking, and the sound of hull collapse was heard from time to time.

On the water surface, it is even more miserable, and the floating planks and masts are not enough, but more corpses, densely packed, tumbling and rolling, and being blistered by the river, just like the Lantern Festival in the Lantern Festival pot. They used to be living beings, but now they, like other debris floating on the river, are all inanimate things, flowing downstream along the river.

In the shallow water of the nearby river beach, because of the poor current, countless corpses gathered near the slightly calm tidal flat, rippling in the water, like the surface of the river where hippos gather, revealing all black bodies, dense and numb.

"Order Mao 18 to lead the downstream warships to clean up the river and salvage the corpse materials, and be sure to clean it up early tomorrow morning. The corpses were piled up and burned, and the corpses were not allowed to pollute the water surface along the river, which frightened the common people. Song Nan sighed and ordered.

"My lord, a rough count of the results of the battle has been made, two hundred and eighty-three rebel ships have been sunk, more than one hundred and sixty have been stranded on the river, and two hundred and twenty have been stranded near the beach. More than 33,700 rebels were captured, and the number of dead cannot be counted for the time being, because most of them were floating on the river. Our army suffered less than 8,000 casualties, which is simply a stroke of genius. Ma Ming rushed from the river beach and shouted.

Song Nan frowned and said, "There's no need to be so happy. ”

Ma Ming was stunned and said, "Are you worried because Zhu Chenhao escaped with dozens of warships?" The lowly will immediately lead the men to chase after him, and he will take him and kneel before the lord. ”

Song Nan shook his head and said: "Zhu Chenhao's escape is expected, we can't do anything about him when he shrinks on the river, and besides, this battle is not to take him, but to defeat him." I've already arranged the pursuit, you just need to clear the battlefield and let the brothers rest, and don't worry about the rest. ”

Song Nan raised his feet and frowned and walked towards the river beach to the south, where a colorful painting boat was slowly approaching the river bank.

"My lord, what's wrong? With such a big victory, why are adults not happy at all? Ma Ming asked with a wink.

Peng Yang, the commander of the Second Foreign Army, said in a low voice: "My lord is unhappy to see so many people killed. The lord himself just said that the sin he had committed was too great and too heavy, and it was against the peace of heaven. ”

Ma Ming was dumbfounded: "Where do you start with this? How can there be no immortal in war since ancient times? Today's battle is a bitter battle of life and death, if we don't kill the rebels, all the 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses on the island will die at the hands of the rebels. What kind of emotion is this from, adult? ”

Peng Yang smiled and said, "Adults don't understand these things in their hearts?" It's just a momentary depression, so you don't need to take it to heart. By the way, the lord said that he was a little tired and wanted to take a boat back to the city to rest, and asked the two of us to lead the troops back to the Jiangpu camp to rest after the aftermath of the incident here. ”

Ma Ming watched Song Nan walk towards the painting boat, and said in amazement: "My lord took that boat back to the city?" ”

Peng Yang squeezed his eyes and said: "That painting boat is already the flagship of the adult, and the adult is also going to the Yunxiao Pavilion to rest, is it possible that you still have to stop it." ”

Ma Ming blinked and said, "Am I full?" Whatever? ”

……

The afternoon sun was gentle and warm, the sunshine was full of the breath of spring, Song Nan turned over lazily and woke up, the cells of his whole body were rejuvenated, but the nightmarish battle of last night was still in the dream.

"Boom, boom, boom. Bang bang bang. ”

A muffled roar came into his ears, and Song Nan turned over and shouted, "Where to fight. Cannon? ”

A woman's exclamation came, the curtain was lifted, and a pretty and panicked face poked in, and saw Song Nan sitting on the bed with panicked eyes, and the woman suddenly laughed: "You wake up, where is the beating. Cannons, this is the city setting off firecrackers and cannon guns to celebrate your defeat of the rebels. ”

Song Nan rubbed his eyes, then remembered that this was Yunxiao Pavilion, and he slept on Shen Yunyan's incense bed, this morning, Song Nan deliberately came to Yunxiao Pavilion to rest, but he didn't want to go to the post house in the city or the inner hall of the Yamen to be harassed by the Nanjing military and political officials when he slept, after a big victory, these people would definitely come to the door to congratulate, so Song Nan chose to come here to sleep.

Shen Yunyan rolled up the curtain with a smile on his face, went to make a cup of warm tea and brought it over, and said softly: "If you are thirsty, drink saliva." ”

Song Nan took it, drank it down, shook his head and sighed, and then gradually came to his senses. "What time is it?" ”

"It's late in the afternoon, you're hungry, the slave family asked the cook to bring the food, do you drink?"

Song Nan shook his head and said, "I won't eat it." I'm not hungry at all, how did I sleep until this time, and you've been here with me all this time? ”

Shen Yunyan said shyly: "It is the honor of the slave family to accompany the adult. ”

Song Nan's heart moved, he stretched out his hand to pull Shen Yunyan over, and buried his head in her chest, Shen Yunyan was at a loss, and after a while, he had the courage to gently stroke Song Nan's hair.

Song Nan sniffed the fragrance on the girl's body, felt her warm and fragrant body, her heart was calm, and she whispered: "Last night......"

Shen Yunyan said softly: "Don't say it, the slave family knows that the battle situation last night has spread in the city, Gongzi has worked hard, Gongzi is the savior of the imperial court, and the savior of Nanjing City, if Gongzi feels that he is still tired, he will still lie down, and the slave family will accompany you." ”

Song Nan raised her head and looked at Shen Yunyan, from Shen Yunyan's eyes, Song Nan saw infinite love, Shen Yunyan was very smart, she may have felt the shadow in her heart, so she said these words to dispel them.

Song Nan hooked her head and kissed two red lips, and the two of them kissed selflessly, conveying and blending all the words and emotions on the lips, teeth and the tip of the tongue. Song Nan's hand unintentionally touched Shen Yunyan's chest, the strong and soft chest made Song Nan's body stiff, and just when he felt a little unbearable, Shen Yunyan gasped and left Song Nan's mouth, and said shyly: "Not now?" If you want to be a child, Yunyan will serve you well at night. ”

Song Nan smiled: "Why is that?" ”

Shen Yunyan stood up with his clothes neatly dressed, stretched out his hand and took Song Nan's hand and said, "Come with me." ”

Song Nan got out of bed and was pulled by Shen Yunyan to the window, Shen Yunyan opened a small crack in the window, and said with a smile: "You come and take a look." ”

Song Nan looked through the gap in the window suspiciously, and he could just see the front yard of Yunxiao Pavilion from this angle, but he saw dozens of officials standing on the stone steps in the front yard, some bowed their heads and pondered, some whispered to each other, and some looked up at the sky, looking bored.

Song Nan said: "What are they?" ”

Shen Yunyan said with a smile: "You came to rest with me, they all came to Yunxiao Pavilion after learning the news, and no one dared to disturb your rest, so they have been standing there since noon, waiting for you to wake up." If you ...... If you stay in my room, the cloud of smoke will be the object of their scolding. Come on, evening ...... The slave family is waiting for you here at night. ”

Song Nan smiled dumbly, hugged Shen Yunyan and kissed her long mouth, and said with a smile: "Okay, you help me comb my hair and dress, and I'll go see them." But I'm afraid I won't be able to come tonight, I'm afraid you'll have to stay alone in the empty room. ”

Shen Yunyan exclaimed: "Why? ”

Song Nan smiled and said: "My business is not over yet, Zhu Chenhao fled upstream, eight out of ten. Jiu has fled to Anqing Mansion, how can I let him go free. But don't worry, after taking Zhu Chenhao, I will order someone to pick you up and return to Beijing with me, you are now my woman. ”

The disappointment on Shen Yunyan's face suddenly vanished, and he said shyly: "The concubine obeys orders." ”
