"People have good fortune and misfortune" is true, because it couldn't withstand the gallop of so many cavalry, the small bridge collapsed, but it killed these Northern Qi cavalry.

Originally, since the blue wolf battalion could not be eliminated, it was no problem for him to escape slowly, anyway, the blue wolf battalion was infantry, and he couldn't catch up with himself, and the reinforcements in the distance were still more than three miles away from him, so it would not be a problem to leave safely.

Who knew that the bridge, which was safe and secure when it came, suddenly collapsed at this time, and only one hundred and ten horsemen fled to the opposite bank, and now there are still more than four hundred cavalry on this side.

However, because the river was not wide and the current speed was not urgent, the generals of the Qi army hurriedly ordered all the cavalry to dismount and follow the horses to the opposite bank.

When Wang Ze led the reinforcements to the shore, he only had time to 'shoot' and kill more than 100 Northern Qi cavalry who swam behind and had not had time to go ashore.

The Northern Qi generals on the other side glanced at Wang Ze's banner viciously, and then silently led the remaining more than 400 cavalry to the north quickly.

Cao An looked at Wang Ze in surprise as if a divine soldier had descended from the sky, and said, "Xiao Langjun, why are you here?" We've already won? ”

It turned out that after the victory that day, Wang Ze asked his father Wang Yong to lead Sun Xing, Zheng Kui and others to lead part of the infantry, the ironclad battalion of the Zhou Tong Department and all the militia, and first take a boat to solve the 3,000 Northern Qi troops left by Duan Yining in the three camps of Muping, Weihai, and Chengshan.

Each camp has 1,000 Northern Qi troops, and it is not difficult to destroy under the attack of Wang Yong's thousands of people, but Wang Yong will take down Changguang County after that, and the number cannot be small.

Wang Ze has already made up his mind to make a big move.

Because he was worried about Cao An's action to rescue Zhu Rui, Wang Ze led all the cavalry after the war, hundreds of infantry under Jiang Chuan, and more than 2,000 people such as the blue wolf battalion and the crossbow battalion, and quickly 'advanced' into the Yellow River on a team of clippers led by He Liang to go to support.

When the fleet arrived at Qu Liulang's docking, it was encountering a group of soldiers escorting Zhu Rui to escape to the embankment of the Yellow River, Wang Ze immediately knew that the situation was not good, and immediately ordered the cavalry to get off the ship first and attack quickly.

However, the war horse wandered at sea for more than two days, and the state was not bad, so it could not run out of speed, so most of the Northern Qi cavalry escaped.

Seeing that most of the Northern Qi cavalry fled, because Cheng Chong was injured and did not come, the two captains of Ge Wei and Xun Yun, who temporarily led the cavalry, sighed a pity; Wang Ze felt that it didn't matter, as long as Cao An's blue wolf camp didn't have too much loss, the loss of the cottage during this time was too great.

Seeing that the sky was already bright, Wang Ze hurriedly ordered all the departments to get on the ship urgently, and then ordered Qu Liulang and He Liang, saying: "Sixth brother, eldest brother, prepare to lift the anchor, and after the departments get on the ship, they will set sail and evacuate, otherwise the government will put down the fireboat from the upstream, although there will not be much danger, but there will be big trouble." ”

Qu Liulang and He nodded their heads yes, and at three o'clock the fleet slowly moved, Wang Ze watched his dozens of ships go down the river, and there was a prosperous city on the other side.

At this time, there were already some caravan boats driving in the river, and the early fishermen caught the best Yellow River carp, and were driving the fishing boats to go to the morning market to sell them for a good price.

Qu Liulang beside Wang Ze introduced: "Xiao Langjun, the opposite side is Jeju County, and after crossing the river, dozens of miles to the southeast is Jishui, where there is a Jibei County, so Jeju City is a north-south 'cross' to rush, if we hadn't disguised ourselves as merchant ships before, we wouldn't have been able to come here." ”

Speaking of this, Qu Liulang's eyes lit up and said, "I don't know how much grain and cloth this big city has!" ”

Qu Liulang's meaning Wang Ze also understood, this guy saw that there was another big city opposite, and he thought in his heart whether to disturb the 'chaos' again and grab a handful? ”。

Wang Ze shook his head and replied to Qu Liulang: "Sixth brother, let's go back early, after all, the government should not be underestimated, and the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers is still very strong." ”

Qu Liulang pursed his lips unconvinced, and said: "Xiao Langjun, if you want to say that the cavalry and infantry of the officers and soldiers are powerful, let's admit it, but when you get to this big river, it depends on our brothers' abilities!" This big river is extremely wide, and the officials and soldiers coming to this river is our dish! ”

During this period, the Yellow River was still very large, although the Yellow River had broken several times during the Han Dynasty, but after the wars and "chaos" since the Three Kingdoms, after the wars and "chaos" of the two Jin Dynasty and the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms; and then the Northern Wei Dynasty entered the Central Plains, the main agricultural production in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, especially the entire Loess Plateau, was mainly based on animal husbandry, and agriculture was just some supplements.

After the Northern Wei Dynasty occupied the Central Plains, although some agricultural construction was carried out in Yongzhou, Bingzhou and other places, only about 40 years after Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved the capital to Luoyang, the Northern Wei Dynasty was divided into the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Western Wei Dynasty, and then the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The Northern Qi Dynasty had the largest population at that time, with more than 20 million people, but these people were mainly distributed in the vast North China Plain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and the ecological damage to the Yellow River was very small.

The population of the Northern Zhou Dynasty in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is only about 9 million, and it is mainly concentrated in the Guanzhong region and the two prefectures of Yiliang, which have just been seized a few years ago, and the ecological damage to the upper reaches has only just begun.

In this way, under the chaos of hundreds of years of war, the ecological environment of the Yellow River Basin has miraculously been restored. And now China is gradually entering a warm and humid period, and the climate and precipitation are roughly similar to those of the Yangtze River basin in later generations.

After listening to Qu Liulang's words, Wang Ze visually measured that the distance between the two banks of the Yellow River at this time was at least seven or eight miles, and the river surface was at least five or six miles away.

At this time, some soldiers on Wang Ze's boat cast fishing nets and caught seven or eight big fish one after another, including a Yellow River carp weighing more than 20 catties.

Immediately, the cook on the boat took the fish and cleaned it up, and it seemed that there would be a good Yellow River carp to enjoy at noon, and Wang Ze, who had always liked to eat fish, couldn't help but drool.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Shikai was an official in Beijing and wanted to eat the Yellow River carp in his hometown, and he used lard to preserve the Yellow River carp, and quickly sent it all the way to the capital.

At this moment, Cao An, who had already dealt with his injuries, came to Wang Ze in civilian clothes, followed by three strong men.

"Xiao Langjun" Cao An saluted Wang Ze respectfully, after all, it was Wang Ze who came to save him at the critical moment, Wang Ze stopped Cao An, then looked at several strange men behind him, and asked, "Erlang, who are these?" ”

The three men were of different ages, the one on the far left was about forty years old, and his muscles and flesh were particularly strong, and he appeared to be powerful; the man in the middle had a delicate face, a slight beard, and was in his thirties; only the man on the far right was the youngest, and he looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with a wooden face.

Cao An turned to Wang Ze and introduced: "Xiao Langjun, these righteous men have made a great contribution to our rescue of the three commanders and brothers. ”

First of all, he introduced the black-faced man on the far left, and said: "Xiao Langjun, this strong man's surname is Shen Sanshui, he lives in Pingyuan County, he is very powerful, and he is the most enthusiastic to help people on weekdays. ”

Wang Ze smiled and saluted Shen Sanshui with a fist, Shen Sanshui hurriedly returned the salute, and then Cao An continued to introduce the man in the middle.

"This gentleman's surname is Ji Mingxiang, he is good at making a horse lance, and the bow horse is also skillful and tight, Mr. Ji's father and ancestor also had a lot of family assets in Pingyuan County, but unfortunately the family property was gradually swallowed up and robbed by the countryside, and later he was also imprisoned for offending the Pingyuan County Lieutenant."

Cao An shook his head while introducing, as if he was sighing for Ji Xiang's misfortune, and Ji Xiang also bowed his hand to Wang Ze.

In the end, it was the turn of the young man, Cao An patted the young man's shoulder and said to Wang Ze: "Xiao Langjun, you don't know, this brother is named Chu Honghang, he doesn't look good, but he is the material of a fierce general, although he can't ride a horse, but his arms have the strength of a thousand catties, and today he has made a big move, and more than a dozen of the officers and soldiers who were killed by the wooden spear were killed by him!" ”

Hearing Cao An praise himself, Yang Honghang smiled honestly: "Don't dare to be an adult to praise, you just have a lot of strength!" ”

Wang Ze also smiled and said to the three of them: "All the strong men are fierce generals for a while, I don't know if you are willing to be wronged by my subordinates and lead the position of a hundred generals?" ”

Shen Sanshui and Luo Honghang immediately agreed excitedly, and Ji Xiang followed closely with the two of them.

Wang Ze said happily: "In this case, I will select all the new refugees who are good at horseback riding into the cavalry battalion, and Ji Xiang will temporarily aggrieved and become a cavalry detachment leader." With that, he asked Ge Wei and Xun Yun to arrange these matters.

After arranging Ji Xiang, Wang Ze continued to say to Shen Sanshui and Yang Honghang: "The two strong men are not good at riding and 'shooting', then Shen Zhuang will first enter our infantry camp to be a fruit captain; ”

Shen Sanshui, Ji Xiang and Luo Honghang didn't think too much about it, and immediately agreed, in their opinion, Wang Ze's side is also strong, no matter what, they have a hope of revenge.

The speed of the fleet down the river was relatively fast, although it was not as fast as Li Bai's "thousands of miles of Jiangling in one day", but it still traveled more than 50 miles in an hour and a half, and arrived at a sparsely populated bay of the Yellow River.

At this time, the team had already eaten on the ship, Wang Ze ordered the fleet to dock, He Liang and Qu Liulang were puzzled, and asked: "Xiao Langjun, this is still the hinterland of Daqi, and now I am afraid that the military horses everywhere have already known that we have made a big fuss in the plain county, how can we still stay on the shore?" ”

Wang Ze instructed the two: "Brother He, you command the fleet to go down the river, enter Jishui after going to sea, and be ready to meet us at any time, sixth brother, you should act with me!" ”

As he spoke, the sergeants of the various units on the ship had already changed into the uniforms of the Qi army, and they disembarked and landed one after another under the unified command.

Scouts and scouts had been dispatched as soon as the ship stopped, and it had been found that there was no one living for several miles, and they would not be discovered for the time being.

Qu Liulang was also asked by Wang Ze to change into the outfit of a general of the Qi army, and he asked Wang Ze in surprise while changing his clothes: "Xiao Langjun, are we going to disguise the officers and soldiers to deceive Jeju City this time?" ”

"Sixth brother, don't worry! You'll find out tonight! Wang Ze pretended to answer mysteriously, but Qu Liulang, who had always been curious, itched anxiously.

What happened to Qu Rokuro's surprise was that the procession of thousands of people not only did not quietly march towards Jeju City, but instead marched quickly towards the east in a bright and bright manner.

An hour later, the army marched more than ten miles, and came to a large river, Qu Liulang, who was familiar with the map, knew that this was a large river parallel to the Yellow River---- Jishui.

This great river was taken away by the Yellow River in later generations and became part of the Yellow River, but it is still a large river that runs roughly parallel to the Yellow River, with 'waves' and turbulent waves.

But what are you doing here? Just when Qu Liulang was puzzled, Cheng Hu, who was following Wang Ze, took out a horn and blew it hard, and then rowed out dozens of sea fox boats from a nearby river bay, each of which could carry more than 30 people, and the horses could only carry five.

Fortunately, there are more than a dozen large ships disguised as merchant ships nearby, which can accommodate all the men and horses.

This section of Jishui is located in the waters between Qi County and Jibei County, both counties are prosperous and rich places, so there are many merchant ships coming and going, and the ships that look like more than a dozen merchant ships are not very noticeable.

Just as Qu Liulang was looking around, a familiar figure came to him, and it turned out to be Kan Le, the second captain of the Navy under Qu Liulang.

"Good boy, didn't you send the commander to the Muping camp? Do you know what's going on this time? Qu Liulang slammed his old subordinate on the shoulder.

Kan Le grinned and rubbed his shoulders and replied: "Sixth brother, don't worry, after the junior brother sent the commander to Muping that day, he led this group of ships to come here and hide according to Xiao Langjun's previous arrangement, as for what the situation is, I don't know." ”

Wang Ze comforted the soldiers at this time: "I know that everyone has worked hard, there are some military rations on the ship, if you are hungry on the ship, you should pad it first, and after today, please have a good meal tomorrow!" ”

Qu Liulang became the person in charge of the navy again this time, and while directing everyone to get on the boat, he asked Wang Ze curiously: "Xiao Langjun, where are we going?" ”

Wang Ze glanced at him and said, "This time the cottage has suffered a big disaster, and the situation is so sudden, don't you think it's strange?" This time, of course, I'm going to find someone to get revenge! ”。
