……

Three days later, Lu Yi docked 200 ships in the middle of the river transportation and handed them over to Diao Mantu.

"Brothers, cheer up, let's go home, fight back!"

Diao Mantu did not doubt him, and immediately ordered the army to board the ship and return south.

When the army boarded the ships one after another, Ma Zun suddenly came to advise: "General Diao, think twice, the enemy army must be deceitful, and it is very dangerous to go here!" ”

Diao Mantu replied impatiently: "Look around, if Dongyi is really cheating, it will definitely be intercepted in the middle of the road, but take a good look, there is half a Dongyi figure on the river?"

Could it be that they will still hide underwater? You don't have to say much, board the ship quickly, and the matter must not be known to the court. ”

Ma Zun had no choice but to watch the army excitedly get on the ship.

He knew that no matter how much he persuaded now, it was useless, not only did he want to return to the south bank, but even these soldiers were like arrows, and in desperation, they could only board the ship together.

In the direction of the south bank, Lu Ziming saw the army of Diao Mantu slowly approaching from the speculum, and suddenly looked cold: "Order the whole army, don't act rashly, wait for all the enemy troops to cross the river and act when they are assembled!" ”

……

An hour later, the fleet finally reached the south shore.

Seeing that there was no movement all the way, and in addition to some antler walls on the south bank that were burned down by fire, there was not a single soldier of Dongyi, and Diao Mantu suddenly smiled at Ma Zun: "See, the journey has been safe and sound, Dongyi really withdrew from the southern camp, and we can sit back and relax." ”

Ma Zun pursed his lips and muttered, "Could it be that I'm really worried?" ”

"Aha! When the soldiers are settled, follow me into the city and drink a few cups of crushing shock! ”

After Diao Mantu finished speaking, he immediately ordered: "The whole army gets off the ship and assembles and returns to the camp!" ”

"Roar~~"

It felt so good to go home, and the officers and men were all overjoyed when they heard this.

The army quickly disembarked and assembled, and some of the excited soldiers even directly discarded the blades in their hands, jumped from the boat into the icy water, and rowed towards the shore with laughter.

Soon, the shore was crowded with Jin officers and soldiers who had no formation to speak of.

And in the mountains and forests not far away, a mortar gun full of grenades was already aimed at them.

However, for this unknown threat, Diao Mantu and others have never been aware of it.

Just as the army had all disembarked and was about to give the order to return to the camp, a deafening roar was suddenly heard.

Immediately afterwards, more than ten heavy "iron bumps" fell from a high altitude.

"Boom~~"

Before the Jin officers and soldiers could react, the grenades that fell above their heads suddenly exploded, and countless marbles raged in an instant, and in an instant, a cloud of blood mist rose in the Jin army's array.

"Not good! Enemy attack! ”

Ma Zun roared, and was about to give an order, but he heard a piercing scream.

However, I saw hundreds of rockets speeding in mid-air, falling into the crowd and exploding on the spot.

The officers and men of Jin had never seen such a scene, and they had already become a mess and scurried around, making the already chaotic formation even more chaotic.

"I'm in the middle of it!"

It was only at this time that Diao Mantu finally reacted that this was the way of the Han army.

He wanted to organize the officers and soldiers to counterattack, but the enemy's position was not determined, and the army was already in chaos, so there was no way to start.

The artillery roared, and the side of the military camp on the south bank had turned into a Shura field in the blink of an eye.

Countless soldiers trampled on each other and died, and many officers and men ran to the boat without saying anything, and even countless officers and men simply jumped into the icy river and drowned directly because of cramps.

Lu Ziming saw that the enemy's army was in chaos, and decisively ordered: "The whole army obeys the order and attacks the south bank!" Annihilate the Jin Army! ”

Suddenly, thousands of Han officers and soldiers armed with fire caps and guns, led by Xu Sheng and Zhu Heng, approached the shore in an orderly manner.

"Fight with them!"

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, a team of Jin officers and soldiers simply raised their swords and guns and rushed towards the Han army.

But they were greeted by a barrage of merciless bullets that pierced their bodies.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

A veteran soldier in the army relied on his burly figure and carried a thick-backed knife to cut down his companions in front of him, and ran towards the boat like a mad dog.

However, a rocket landed right in front of his heel, and exploded without waiting for a reaction, and was swept into the river along with a dozen or so companions around him.

The entire south bank was already in chaos, and several officers and men who had just boarded the ship were accidentally pulled into the water by their companions who had just climbed behind them.

Seeing that the general trend has gone, Diao Mantu knows that this time he has lost his troops and lost the important land on the south bank, and the court will definitely blame him, and he should have chosen to die.

However, he was still afraid of death and did not dare to commit suicide, and planned to run to the ship and flee overseas.

But as soon as he was about to do this, he was stopped by Ma Zun: "General Diao, as an official of the imperial court, how can you abandon the army and flee alone?" Now is the time to be loyal to the country. ”

"Fuck off! I can't teach me a lesson! ”

How could he care about Ma Zun, and pushed him away, wanting to take the boat and leave.

Seeing this, Ma Zun was immediately annoyed, stepped forward and grabbed his hair, lifted the thick-backed knife against the back of his neck: "You are a dog thief who does not learn and has no skills, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, if you didn't listen to my advice, how could you have today's situation?"

Since you don't want to die, let me help you! ”

After finishing speaking, he directly slashed the back of the neck of the barbaric figure.

As the blood splattered, the heavy body of the brutal figure fell like a puddle of fat on the blood-stained sand.

"I'm the deputy commander of the Dajin River Transport, Ma Zun! Dongyi'an dares to invade my territory! ”

Ma Zun carried a bloody knife and rushed bravely towards the Han army.

However, with the sound of fire, Ma Zun was hit several times, and finally collapsed on the cold sand.

As soon as the main general died, the officers and soldiers of the Green Battalion no longer had the will to fight, and they fell to the ground one after another and asked to surrender......

After this battle, 30,000 horses and horses of the Green Battalion were annihilated, of which more than 17,000 were killed, and more than 10,000 people drowned by jumping into the river alone.

The historians of the Later Han Dynasty recorded this battle bluntly: Marshal Lu Nalu Cifu's plan, led the Jin soldiers back to the south, landed on the aisle and attacked them, the Jin soldiers were frightened, and tens of thousands of people drowned by throwing themselves into the waterway of the river. The water step army again, a little exhausted for a while, called the corpses to plug the river, the boat can not go, the bloody and rotten gas is endless for half a year, the river is clear in July of the past year, and it is re-passed.

It was also the biggest victory since the Han army entered South Australia.

Since then, the main river transport route has fallen into the hands of the Han army, and there is no formed army in the south of the Yangtze River to resist the ravages of the Han army.

……

Shendu, Jinluan Palace.

"Kill, so afraid of the enemy, let Dongyi rage, what use do I want him? Kill! ”

During this period of time, Honglin was very short-tempered, and the war reports submitted by various coastal areas were all defeats.

The Han fleet ravaged the coastal sea as if it were in a no-man's land, and no one dared to meet the Jin strongholds along the way.

In a fit of rage, Honglin beheaded eight main generals in one go, and twelve local taishou, three of whom were indigenous nobles, were also asked to abandon the city.

This move directly made the Manchu Dynasty civil and military tremble, for fear that one day the butcher's knife would fall on their heads.

When Honglin finished getting angry, he asked again: "How is Zhang Gui doing over there?" ”

Dai Xiang Changyong said: "Back to the emperor, General Zhang Lao has firmly held Xinzhou City for nearly two months, and Dongyi can't take half a step, and he is still trapped in Lucheng. ”

When Honglin heard this, he was immediately annoyed: "Is this what I want to hear?" Why don't you storm Lucheng and annihilate Dongyi as soon as possible! ”

Chang Yong said: "Your Majesty, General Zhang Lao said that Dongyi was well defended, and there was no opportunity to take advantage of it, so he wanted to wait for the enemy army to be tired and then go down in a battle!" ”

Honglin smiled: "I can't beat Dongyi on the sea, and I haven't made any achievements on land, is it possible that my Dajin soldiers are really not as good as Dongyi?" ”
