Qingchong County Government.

Zhou Zibin sat in the mansion and almost didn't sleep all night, under his arrangement, the three counties on the front line were already full of his people.

Not only that, but even the coast of Dongzhou, under his arrangement, has set up a large number of blockades, and every patrol has occupied the best attack position.

Just waiting for the sea, Su Qi'an led the army back, so as to take it down on the charge of bandit treason, if Su Qi'an refused to admit his guilt, it didn't matter.

At that time, with the hostages in his hands, it was enough for Su Qi'an to bow his head, in order to wait for this day, Zhou Zibin waited too long.

As long as Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo are taken, the entire Dongzhou can be completely controlled by him, and then he will have such an important state, not to mention Daliang, even in the face of the Japanese Kou, he will have the capital to negotiate.

He was sitting in the county mansion, all preparations were ready, and he was waiting for Su Qi'an to return quickly.

During this night's waiting, there was no trace of any warship on the calm sea ahead, and there was no front line at all, so he was not in a hurry with Zhou Zibin.

With Su Qi'an's wisdom, once Qin Zhen joins him, he will definitely be able to guess his scheme, Su Qi'an will naturally not be stupid to bring people back, he must have a plan.

But no matter what the plan was, Zhou Zibin didn't have any worries, an hour ago, he received news that Feng Nan had escorted Shen Wanfu! Shen Yang and Fan Chong came to Haizhou City.

At Feng Nan's speed, it only took half an hour at most to get from Haizhou City to Qingchong County.

He has these three most important trump cards in his hands, no matter what Su Qi'an's plan is, in front of him, after all, he will be tied up and self-defeating.

If Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo were ruthless enough, ignoring the life and death of the three of them, and insisting on protecting themselves, Zhou Zibin could just be in front of everyone.

Su Qi'an disobeyed the imperial court and rescued the Dongzhou felons without authorization, and according to the law, he could be killed on the spot.

The soldiers under him didn't have any worries, and they shot at Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo.

In a word, no matter what, when Su Qi'an comes back this time, he will only die.

Just when Zhou Zibin was secretly thinking in his heart, suddenly, a subordinate looked panicked, as if he was frightened, and he used his hands and feet together, and hurriedly ran to report.

Zhou Zibin's face was displeased, and he said coldly, "What's so alarming, isn't it the hell."

"Return... Lord Hui, it's really hell, according to the eyeliner, the army of Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo was found in Haizhou City."

"They have already crossed Haizhou City and are heading towards Qingchong County, and it seems that they will be able to arrive in about two quarters of an hour at most."

Hearing this, Zhou Zibin's face was obviously in disbelief, and he asked several times.

"Huh? What you say is true!"

"Lord Hui, this is true, and the little ones don't know why they appeared behind us, as if they appeared out of thin air, we don't know at all."

"By the time they found out, they had already crossed Haizhou City, and they had a lot of troops, at least forty or fifty thousand people, my lord, what should we do."

The subordinates were very panicked, and after taking over the first nine counties of Dongzhou, the troops in their hands were at least 30,000.

Moreover, most of the troops in his hands were piled up in the three counties on the front line, in order to rely on the terrain advantage, he could compete well with the armies of Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo.

On the contrary, the remaining six counties did not have many troops, and more local militia were used, with a maximum of one or two thousand people in each county.

And who would have thought that the Su and Wu army, which had obviously passed by sea, would finally come back and appear directly from their rear, isn't this what the hell is this?

If it weren't for repeated confirmation, they wouldn't believe it, how could the Su Wu army disappear out of thin air, and then inexplicably appear in the rear.

Compared with the horror of his subordinates, Zhou Zibin seemed to think of something after a short shock.

Ignoring his subordinates, he immediately got up and walked towards the side hall in the rear, his eyes did not look at the sand table in the side hall, but fell on a map of the whole Dongzhou on the wall.

His eyes flickered, and after a while, his eyes instantly sharpened, and he said coldly.

"Let's defend the Dongshu Sea

All the patrols on the shore have withdrawn, and the defenses along the way have also withdrawn, and there is no need to stop them, and you can't stop them, just report their positions at any time."

"And we just wait for Su Qi'an, Wu Dingguo, and their troops to come to the city."

Zhou Zibin's order made his subordinates stunned, but after thinking about it, they could understand it

If the Su-Wu army came from the sea, with the advantage of the terrain and city walls, they could still fight with it, but now, they appeared directly in the rear.

At this moment, the advantage of preparing on the coast of Dongzhou was wiped out in an instant, and it was meaningless to let the people out.

Since they can appear quietly in the rear and there is no surprise attack, to put it bluntly, they are also waiting for a decisive battle with Zhou Zibin.

Therefore, now that you know how to do it, there is no need to waste troops and engage in harassment, and the two sides will face each other under the city of Qingchong County, and they will win or lose.

The men nodded, then turned to leave.

As for Zhou Zibin, his gaze was withdrawn from the map, and a faint sneer was written on his face.

No wonder Su Qi'an was delayed for so long, it turned out that he was returning from Yuezhou.

Borrowing through Yuezhou, entering Yuezhou from the sea area of Dongzhou, through the waterway of Yuezhou, and directly inserting into Haizhou City, this move was something Zhou Zibin did not expect.

Su Qi'an has this ability, borrowing through Yuezhou, but anyone else may not have this ability.

If you can borrow troops from Yuezhou, you can naturally borrow from Yuezhou, Zhou Zibin thinks about it now, some of his arrangements are indeed a little overconfident.

A person like Su Qi'an, if he really fell for his plan in a daze and returned from the Dongzhou Sea openly, then he really looked down on this person.

This time I returned by the road, and the previous arrangement and layout were useless, just right, and then I waited for Su Qi'an to lead the army to the city, and it depended on who on both sides had the ability and superior skills.

At this time, on the official road outside Haizhou City, there was no end to the army, walking mightily, such momentum, the mountain bandits along the way, all frightened silent, watching the mighty army pass by.

Returning to Dongzhou, feeling the truth of the land under their feet, Xie Cang, Wu Dingguo, Su Yong, Qin Zhen and others felt a down-to-earth in their hearts.

These people are mainly land generals, and compared with naval warfare, many land tactics are difficult to implement in naval warfare.

However, as long as the battle was mainly on Zhoushan Island, and the landing operation, no matter how much favorable terrain the mountain bravely relied on, in front of them, these pirates and pirates would be vulnerable after all.

The reason why they have carried it for so long is because of the support of the Dongzhou Sea Area and the Fuso Naval Division, otherwise these so-called pirate groups can also become their henchmen?

Of course, this battle still gave Wu Dingguo a great lesson, the development of the land army is good, but after all, Dongzhou is close to the sea, and it is still necessary to develop a naval division.

Of course, the development of the sailor division is not overnight, and it must be coordinated in many directions, mainly with the support of the imperial court.

Wu Dingguo has already discussed these with Su Qi'an, but these plans will be shelved for the time being, and the matter between him and Zhou Zibin must be resolved first.

has been getting along for so many years, since the other party has torn his face and wants to step on their heads, this time, Wu Dingguo will naturally not do this.

The contradictions of so many years have been resolved today.

The army's slow advance, not only did there be no obstruction along the way, but even many official areas cleared their places in advance, as if they were waiting for them to come.

As time passed, Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo finally led tens of thousands of troops and returned to Qingchong County.

At this time, the county town of Qingchong can be described as heavily guarded, and the city tower has already been replaced by Zhou Zibin's own people.

These soldiers, armed with arrows and crossbows, aimed at the Su and Wu army under the city, and nearly 10,000 soldiers in the city, according to their respective regional locations, waited.

Waiting for Zhou Zibin's order at any time, you can dispatch, if you only rely on nearly 10,000 people in the city, you want to kill Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo and gather 50,000 troops, which is almost a fool's dream.

If the line of sight is far away, follow the area outside the county town of Qingchong until it will be nearby

Zuohai and Sanming counties are shrouded.

It will be found that these three county towns are like a semicircle, surrounding the tens of thousands of troops of Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo.

In the two counties of Zuohai and Sanming on both sides, Zhou Zibin also deployed nearly 10,000 troops, not counting the 3,000 Japanese mobile troops led by Underground Shin who landed ashore.

With the advantage of terrain, it was not so easy for Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo's 50,000 troops to eat him in one go.

This time, waiting for Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo's soldiers to come to the city, Zhou Zibin didn't think about starting a war with him at the beginning.

If it really starts, it won't wait until his soldiers come to the city and defeat the opponent, so he will naturally attack the heart, he hasn't made a move with Su Qi'an, and he has to put it back in advance.

Zhou Zibin stood on the city tower, looking condescending, smiling, and said softly.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Honshu to be here, and it really made Honshu sigh when he met the Inspector and the Metropolitan Governor."

Without waiting for Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo to speak, Zhou Zibin, who was smiling, changed his words, and his tone was instantly stern.

"Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo, as the Inspector of Dongzhou and the Governor of Dadu, you actually took advantage of the outbreak of war to collude with pirates and pirates, gangsters and treason, and now you are leading troops to counterattack, what crime should you two be guilty of!"

Zhou Zibin's tone was cold, Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo's faces were very calm, but they looked a little lively, as if the people who were extremely guilty of the crimes that Zhou Zibin said had nothing to do with them.

Not long after Zhou Zibin's voice fell, Su Qi'an smiled and said, "Oh, traitorous bandits? Hehe, this hat is not ordinarily big."

"Lord Governor has put on such a big position, and he does not hesitate to tear his face to expose your ambitions, is it relying on this nonsense without evidence?"

"Lord Governor, don't go around in circles, take out your hole cards, and let the envoy open his eyes."

Su Qi'an's stimulation was expected by Zhou Zibin, he sneered, waved his hand, and after a while, next to him, several figures were escorted up.

Zhou Zibin's sneer sounded at this moment, "Inspector Envoy, Grand Governor, can you be satisfied with these hole cards?"
