Chapter 1167: Blood Massacre

The Zhenhai ship is on the sea, it is an invincible giant, but in the shallow water, it is useless, and the huge hull has become a burden.

After the ten Zhenhai ships stopped in the shallow water, they were attacked by the Zhenjun Army and the Southeast Water Army Women's Soldier Regiment in the middle of the night.

The thousands of officers and soldiers of the East China Sea Army who stayed on the Zhenhai ship, and the Zhenjun army and female soldiers who were attacked by the sneak attack were all annihilated. Then, relying on the local slender men and people, pulling the boat overnight, ten Zhenhai ships finally arrived on the battlefield.

Hearing the report of the general, his own Zhenhai ship was hung with the banner of the Zhenjun Army, Li Yongfu couldn't believe his ears, he hurriedly climbed the lookout, holding a monocular, looking at the rear, when he saw clearly the flag fluttering on the Zhenhai ship, his head buzzed, his eyes turned black, and he almost fell from the lookout.

Now he finally fully understands the situation he is currently facing, there are enemies in front and back, left and right, and the Tianhe Waterway is a net that Shangguan Xiu has laid for him.

What made him shudder was that his every move seemed to be within Shangguan Xiu's calculations, and he did not leave the slightest opportunity for his side.

After being supported off the lookout by the generals under his command, Li Yongfu, whose face was pale, only squeezed out three words from between his teeth: "Shang, official, show!"

After holding back for a long time, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Pang Zhen harmed me! It was Pang Zhen who harmed me!" He now attributed all the plans of the East China Sea Army to Pang Zhen's head.

If it weren't for Pang Zhen's report in the biography, saying that he had discovered and annihilated the main force of the Zhenjun Army in the East China Sea, how could he rashly lead the army deep into Sichuan County, and ended up in Shangguan Xiu's ambush. In his opinion, the defeat of this battle was all due to Pang Zhen's pure heart to harm him.

In this matter, he really misunderstood Pang Zhen, from beginning to end, Pang Zhen did not pass the book to the East China Sea Army camp, all the good news sent back to the camp was from the hands of the generals below, they were eager to invite merit, so they gave the camp a letter to report the success as soon as possible, and then the 30,000 sailors led by Pang Zhen collectively surrendered to Shangguan Xiu, and naturally no one passed the book to the camp again, saying that the main force of the Zhenjun Army found was fake. As a result, these good news with no end and no end directly led to Li Yongfu and the main force of the East China Sea Army falling into a desperate situation.

At this time, Li Yongfu can be said to have viciously poisoned Shangguan Xiu and Pang Zhen, his facial features were distorted, and he gritted his teeth. However, no matter how much he hated Shangguan Xiu and Pang Zhen, he couldn't change the situation of the East China Sea Army now.

Under the rounds of shelling by the Zhenjun Army and the Southeast Water Army, the warships of the East China Sea Army were also sunk one after another.

Seeing that their own army was in danger of annihilation, the generals and strategists under Li Yongfu couldn't hold their breath and asked one after another: "General, how should our army deal with it now?"

"General, our army is under siege, hurry up and get an idea! No matter how late it is, all the officers and men of the army will die!"

"General......

Just when people were desperately hoping that Li Yongfu would be able to turn the tide and escape with them, several shells landed on the deck near them, and with a few loud bangs, the strategists and generals present were blown down.

Some people's bodies were directly shattered, and some people's bodies were blown black and smoking, and the scene was horrible.

The surrounding soldiers hurriedly helped Li Yongfu up, the latter shook his body vigorously, and threw off all the people who supported him, he gasped and looked around, there were dead and wounded people on the ground, some were wailing in pain, and some were moaning weakly.

Li Yongfu is a veteran in the army, who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has rich experience, but whenever there is still a glimmer of hope, he will take his brothers to fight and fight, but now, he does not see the slightest hope, there is no way forward, there is no way back, and tens of thousands of troops have been trapped in the Tianhe.

He staggered a few times and fell to the ground. The surrounding soldiers shouted in unison, "General—"

"Surrender! Give the order, our soldiers, all of them, disarm, surrender and surrender. In the end, the voice popped out of Li Yongfu's mouth word by word.

In the past, people would not dare to believe their ears when he said that the whole army would surrender, but now, when he said to surrender, people felt a sense of relief.

As the so-called good death is better than living, as long as you can live, it doesn't matter if you can serve the Tang Ling court or the Tang Yu court. As soon as Li Yongfu's order was conveyed, the surviving warships of the East China Sea Army rushed to hoist the white flag.

All the warships of the East China Sea Army were hung with white flags, and the soldiers of the Southeast Water Army and the soldiers of the Zhenjun Army on the top of the mountain naturally also saw it.

On the commander-in-command ship of the Southeast Navy Army, the generals and officers excitedly said to Zhang Luan: "General, the enemy has surrendered! The enemy army has surrendered en masse!"

Zhang Luan's face finally showed a smile, the tense nerves relaxed, he breathed a long sigh of relief, raised his hand, and was just about to give the order, ready to surrender, suddenly, he heard a long horn sound on the top of the mountain on both sides, which was a signal to inform the land and water armies to continue the attack.

Hearing the sound of the horn, people's faces changed, and the generals looked at each other, and Li Yinghu said suspiciously: "Army...... The army side will not accept the surrender of the East China Sea Army?"

Zhang Luan frowned, and shouted: "Send someone immediately to ask the army, what is going on!" "The East China Sea Army has surrendered, this battle has ended, why does the army still order an attack?"

At present, the person who sits in the Zhenjun Army is Cai Huang. Although Cai Huang suffered a defeat when attacking the camp of the East China Sea Army, he was not punished for this, but was even more reused by Shangguan Xiu.

In Shangguan Xiu's words, in that situation at that time, no matter who it was, he would be fooled, and if he didn't get it right, the whole army would be wiped out, and Cai Huang could think of using 3,000 soldiers as a test for the front army, which was enough to prove that his heart was as fine as silk, such a person was suitable for leading the army to fight. Of course, this is Shangguan Xiu's superficial statement, in his heart, Shangguan Xiu appreciates Cai Huang's ruthlessness towards the rebels, and this is exactly what the First Army lacks, and the reuse of Cai Huang can make up for the shortcomings of the First Army's soft-heartedness towards the rebels.

An extremely smart person like Cai Huang, he can understand himself without needing him, not to mention Shangguan Xiu's repeated reuse of him regardless of his previous suspicions, he knows very well the value and significance of his existence.

Now that the East China Sea Army raised the white flag and surrendered, Cai Huang didn't even think about it, and gave a straightforward order, refusing to accept the surrender, and the land and water armies continued to shell, and must annihilate all the East China Sea Army without leaving a living mouth.

The general sent by the Southeast Navy Army soon saw Cai Huang, and after saluting Cai Huang, he said eagerly: "General Cai, the East China Sea Army has surrendered, and our army should immediately stop attacking and accept the ......return of the East China Sea Army."

Before he finished speaking, Cai Huang, who was sitting on a raised mountain rock drinking tea, put down the teacup in his hand, raised his eyes, looked at the naval general, and asked with a smile: "Who told you that after the rebels surrender, we must accept the surrender?"

"This ......"

"Go back and tell you General Zhang, continue to attack until there is no one left in the East China Sea army, this is a general's order, and you must not disobey it. After speaking, Cai Huang glanced at the generals of the navy again, picked up the teacup again, and continued to drink tea slowly.

Cai ...... General Cai ......"

This time, Cai Huang didn't even look at him, and waved his hand without raising his head. The generals of the navy had no choice but to retreat, and after returning to the southeast navy, they conveyed Cai Huang's resoluteness to Zhang Luan.

After hearing this, Zhang Luan and the generals present all changed their faces. Li Ying stomped her feet angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Cai Huang is only the commander of the corps, how can he order our navy? It's just a chicken feather as an arrow! If His Highness is here ......?"

"If Your Highness is here, the situation will not change in any way. Zhang Luan sighed lightly, looked at Li Ying, and said: "You also said that Cai Huang is just a corps commander, and tens of thousands of East China Sea troops surrendered, what qualifications does he have not to accept, and what qualifications does he have to give an order to wipe out the East China Sea army." "Cai Huang's backer and reliance is actually Shangguan Xiu, if Shangguan Xiu didn't support him behind him, would he have the courage to do this? That's tens of thousands of human lives, can he afford it alone?

Zhang Luan didn't make his words clear, but the generals present quickly understood the twists and turns. People stopped talking, including the impulsive Li Ying, if this was Shangguan Xiu's instructions, then no one could change it at all.

After a long time, a general cleared his throat and asked cautiously, "General, what ...... Then do we want to continue attacking the East China Sea Army now?"

Zhang Luan smiled bitterly and asked rhetorically: "Do you want to follow in the footsteps of the East China Sea Army?" Through the resolute refusal of the Zhenjun Army to accept the surrender, it has completely exposed Shangguan Xiu's hatred and deep hatred for the rebels.

His words made it clear to the generals present that their situation was not absolutely safe, and the rebel hats on their heads had not been completely removed.

At this time, no more generals pleaded for the rebels, perhaps no one dared to intercede anymore, and all the generals shouted: "Give the order, give the order immediately, continue the shelling, do not stop for a moment, until all the ammunition on the ship is gone!"

The shelling of the Zhenjun Army and the Southeast Water Army did not stop because of the surrender of the East China Sea Army, but became more ferocious, using all the firepower that could be used.

It was a long-distance massacre, and the soldiers who fired the artillery didn't feel anything, their task was to load, shoot, clean up, cool down, reload, shoot, clean up, cool down, and so on.

It wasn't until the war was over and the battlefield was cleared that people really realized what kind of tragedy their own artillery control had caused.

None of the hundreds of warships of the East China Sea Army remained intact, and the mixture of shipwrecks, wreckage and corpses completely blocked the river.

It had been two or three hours since the battle ended, and the river was still blood-red, and the floating corpses on the surface of the river were not one, but several.

In the years after the war, the people in the lower reaches of the Tianhe River did not dare to catch a fish in the Tianhe River to eat, and in the belly of the larger river fish, there were still occasional broken finger phalanges of people.

In this battle, if it weren't for the fact that Pang Zhen still existed, the East China Sea Army would really be removed from the Wind Country Water Army.

70,000 soldiers, more than 700 warships, except for the captured 10 Zhenhai ships, the rest of the warships, none of them were spared, all were destroyed, a full 70,000 people, how many people escaped in the end, it is impossible to count, but it will never exceed 100 people.

This was the bloody battle of Tianhe that shocked the whole country at that time and shocked later generations, and later generations called this battle more called the Tianhe Bloody Massacre, and did not recognize that it was a war, but only recognized that it was a massacre.

This blood debt, no matter how it turns around, will naturally be counted on Shangguan Xiu's head in the end.

In the eyes of many historians, in the history of the Wind Country, all the people who died in the suppression of rebellion were not as many as those who died at the hands of Shangguan Xiu alone.

The bloody battle of Tianhe shocked the Shangjing Imperial Court and also shocked the Xijing Imperial Court. Cai Huang, who led this battle, became famous because of this. He is also fortunate to become the third person who is most hated by the rebels after Shangguan Xiu and Tang Ling. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
