The war changed very quickly, and as soon as the city of Suzhou was broken, the officers and soldiers were directly killed outside the city of Hangzhou.

The officers and soldiers did not only know how to charge with people's lives like Mingjiao, and trebuchets, bed crossbows, and artillery were greeted together, and more than a dozen fortresses outside Hangzhou were destroyed.

Then came the siege of the city, the officers and soldiers knew that the Fang La people were in Hangzhou, like a beast that smelled blood, Tong Guan personally supervised the battle, and the officers and soldiers relied on the equipment to attack the city of Hangzhou frantically.

Fang La was not the opponent of the official army after all, and suffered heavy casualties after several battles.

Fang La didn't dare to stay in Hangzhou City, so he ran in the direction of Bangyuandong with the army at night, where the road was tortuous and surrounded by mountains, which could resist the officers and soldiers of the brigade.

Tong Guan took advantage of the situation to capture Hangzhou, and commanded the army to attack Muzhou, Yuezhou, Huiji, Yuhang, Lin'an, Yuqian, Changhua, Fenshui, and Xincheng in batches.

After Han Shizhong was captured in Hangzhou, he led his troops back to Liu Yanqing.

In order to compete for the merits of the war, Xin Xingzong took the initiative to take over the task of attacking Yuhang, Yuqian, Changhua, Fenshui, Xincheng, and Lin'an.

And the hard bone of Muzhou was handed over to Liu Yanqing, and Zhao Tan was responsible for attacking Yuezhou and Huiji.

Xin Xingzong is Tong Guan's confidant, Tong Guan is naturally inclined to him, so he agreed to Xin Xingzong's suggestion, and he sat in Hangzhou.

"Muzhou!"

Liu Yanqing looked at the map and frowned, the terrain of Hangzhou is quite flat, but Muzhou is completely different, the mountains here are undulating, there are countless dangerous mountains and mountains, and the army can't show its strength, and it is not easy to capture Muzhou in a short time.

"Father, this kind of terrain trebuchet can't be used, I'm afraid it can only use artillery!"

Liu Guangshi looked at Liu Yanqing and said, the terrain in Muzhou is really not easy to fight.

"All are under control, and the last general is willing to lead troops to attack the city!"

Wang Yuan clenched his fists and asked for battle.

"Well, you take three thousand pioneers to test the guards first!"

Liu Yanqing nodded.

Wang Yuan was overjoyed and hurriedly took Han Shizhong to attack the city.

"It's hard to fight!"

Han Shizhong sighed and said.

"We have all broken the city of Hangzhou, what a Muzhou is."

Wang Yuan said with a smile.

"It's different, Hangzhou goes to Muzhou, it's a land of mountains, and it's difficult to march, let alone attack the city!"

Han Shizhong shook his head, the mountains and the plains were completely different.

"Moreover, it should be rainy in Jiangnan this day! It is even more difficult to march in the upper forest, and if the thieves take advantage of the weather to create floods, no matter how large the army is, it will be in vain! ”

Han Shizhong pointed to the gloomy weather and said, the rainy season in Jiangnan should come.

"This!"

Wang Yuan's face became bitter again, he didn't expect so much, in the past, it was the best time to fight in the northwest at the turn of spring and summer, and there was no autumn in the north at all, Hu Tian snowed in August, and snow was equivalent to closing the mountain.

Sure enough, as Han Shizhong said, Fuyang won it very smoothly, but when he arrived at Baifengling, he was in trouble.

Bailing Peak Mountain is high and densely forested, the terrain is steep and dangerous, the mountain road is winding, the cliffs outside the road are hundreds, it makes people prohibitive, there is only one plank road close to the mountain wall can be passed, it is really a man's pass, ten thousand people can not open.

And guarding Baifengling is the marshal Tan Gao under Fang La, who is commanding Bai Qin and Jingde.

The attack for three days in a row was quite unsmooth, which made Liu Yanqing unable to sit still, and came directly with the army, but he saw that the plank road that could only pass one carriage, and the cliff next to him were also gloomy.

"No wonder Xin Xingzong didn't come to fight Muzhou!"

Liu Yanqing looked helpless, this kind of terrain is not at all something that can be laid down by a strong attack.

"Father, although the mountains in the south of the Yangtze River are undulating, they are not tall, I see that there are many villagers in this mountain, it is better to find the mountain road to go around the back!"

Liu Guangshi opened his mouth and said, the terrain of the plank road must not be attacked.

"Okay, send someone to ask the villagers!"

Liu Yanqing was overjoyed and hurriedly said to the soldiers.

"Liu Du is in charge! There are still hundreds of miles away from Muzhou, and the mountains are steep all the way, and it will take a month to get to Muzhou if you fight like this! ”

Han Shizhong said to Liu Yanqing.

"What do you think?"

Liu Yanqing looked at Han Shizhong and asked.

"The last general heard that Fang La was fleeing from Lin'an to Bangyuan Cave, and the last general wanted to lead an elite army over the mountains and mountains to rob him!"

Han Shizhong said.

"Raid Fang La!"

Liu Yanqing frowned, he had heard about this, Fang La originally wanted to resist stubbornly in Lin'an, but as soon as Tong Guan's army arrived, a small city like Lin'an couldn't stop it at all.

"Okay, you take a thousand elites over the mountain!"

Liu Yanqing nodded and said, if Fang La is allowed to flee back to Bangyuan Cave and defend the mountain, then this battle will drag on for a long time.

"Thank you Liu Du for your control!"

Han Shizhong was overjoyed, bowed to Liu Yanqing and left with the soldiers and horses.

"General, is it inappropriate to do this?"

Wang Yuan looked at Liu Yanqing and asked, Tong Guan's order is to let them fight Muzhou, and now they are dividing their troops to help Yuandong, but they are crossing the line, and Tong Guan's heart is also very small.

"Just a thousand soldiers and horses!"

Liu Yanqing shook his head and said, he is also selfish, Fang Lana is the greatest credit, the emperor has already said, "The one who wins the first place will be awarded the two towns and festivals." ”

Although the Great Song Dynasty is heavy on literature and military suppression, but the Jiedu envoy is in charge of the soldiers of a town, but from the high-ranking officials of the second grade, except for Tong Guan, the privy envoy of the army, who doesn't care?

In the mountains.

Sun Lei is leading people to wait on a mountain, which is the only way back to Bangyuan Cave.

"Brother, Fang La will arrive at dawn."

The time moved to report.

"Everyone has arrived, the affairs of Jiangnan should be over, this rainy season is coming soon, it is better to go back to Liangshan to be comfortable!"

Sun Lei nodded and said, I went out in February, and now it's April, Jiangnan has begun to enter the rainy season, and the weather will soon become rainy and wet.

"Brother, it's all here!"

Du Yan, Wang Jin and others said with a smile that they had arrived secretly.

When the sky was getting brighter, Fang La and his party finally appeared.

"Your Majesty, Fuyang's side is broken, and the official army is preparing to attack Muzhou."

Lou Minzhong walked and reported to Fang Layu.

But Fang La couldn't listen to these things at all, his face was pale, and he was in a very bad mood.

Lou Minzhong could only silently shut his mouth when he saw this, since he lost Hangzhou, Fang La thought about fighting to the death in Lin'an, but the result was still a fiasco, and the successive defeats had made Fang La lose his inch.

"How many soldiers do we have?"

Fang La spoke for a long time.

"Shezhou and Muzhou have not yet been broken, and there should be 100,000 people in Bangyuan Cave!"

Lou Minzhong opened his mouth and said, this is already the last strength of the Ming Sect.

"100,000 people! 100,000 people! ”

Fang La muttered, at the peak of his Ming Sect, there were five counties in eight states, with one million followers and three hundred thousand soldiers and horses, but now there are only two states left and 100,000 sect members.

"I'm not as good as Sun Lei!"

Fang La gritted his teeth in his heart and said, he only occupies eight states, but Sun Lei occupies twenty states! The court couldn't beat Sun Lei, so they came to bully him? Persimmon picks soft pinch?

"Your Majesty, as long as we stay until next month, as soon as the rainy season comes, we promise to drive away the officers and soldiers, and Jiangnan is still ours!"

Li Tianyan looked at Fang La and reassured.
