Chapter 411: Falling apart

On the ninth day of September, Shengkang

The hot sky was shining outside, Gu Chongwen was sitting in the main hall, looking at the bright sunlight reflected in the courtyard outside the door, and put it on the desk hand, it was the information that had been handed over recently, and the trembling in his heart was difficult to suppress.

β€”β€”The Xia navy has taken Minggang, and Zhao Kuian's navy of 12,000 people has surrendered.

Someone outside walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion, Taiwei Fan sat on one side, and also silently looked at the sunlight shining into the window lattice, and he whispered a word between the light and dust.

"I heard that Zhao Kuian'an surrendered, and the navy of Xia occupied Minggang, which is three hundred miles away from Shengkang, and it is not far away, but it is not close."

"It's just a troll...... There is still something to be done in the wilderness and on the sea, but you and I should be at ease when attacking the city. Gu Chongwen rubbed his cheeks to make himself look more energetic, his hair has been much whiter than before these days

"The energy is still put on the two Xia soldiers and horses in the land of Sanzhou. On the side of the border army, can you kill it? ”

During this period of time, the situation on the east and west sides can no longer be described as a rout, the naval army has all defected, and the war in the east, since Yaozhou was broken through, the second line of defense that was originally fortified, but it had no effect, the commander of the Xia State Guan Yu and Zhang Liao directly led the army to scatter, killing into the nearby three states, blooming everywhere, and completely beating the original layout to pieces.

At present, the troops deployed in the second line of defense had to be transferred back to the Beijing Division, redeployed due east, and waited for the support of the partial division on the Wu-Yue border, and flanked the Xia army in front and back.

"I have entered Fuzhou, and it is very close to Yuanzhou and Lizhou, where the Xia army is located."

Fan Li, as a lieutenant, controls the military, but in fact, he has no military talent himself, and almost all the generals who can fight in his hands are sent out, and the remaining wine bags and rice bags are left in Shengkang to prepare for defending the city.

"Then let the border army fight well, there is still hope to drive away the soldiers and horses of the Xia Kingdom, and in terms of logistics, tell Zhao Ben, who is in charge, that it must be foolproof!" Gu Chongwen stood up and took a deep breath: "When it comes to this, the Jiangdong family must not mess with itself, and when we cooperate with all our might, we can continue to enjoy the foundation we have saved!" ”

Na Fan Li nodded silently, at this critical juncture, in addition to hoping that the Japanese navy could come and entangle the Xia State navy on the sea, on the field, only the border army could take it and fight a tough battle.

Soon, Gu Chongwen kept smiling and arched his hand to send the other party away, but there was disdain in his eyes, as a family, he has always had the intention of preparing with both hands, and the surrender of the Xia State will definitely not work, not to mention that Kang Chengqian has already surrendered first, just using Minggang as a condition to make a deal with the Japanese people, then the emperor of the Xia Kingdom will still settle on his head at that time.

"Let's go to sea...... Staying away from the flames of war and starting anew is also a way out. He walked out of the room slowly, a piercing sunshine, and only he could hear the words: "Where are you going...... You can try it on the Japanese side. ”

He looked at the sky, the birds crossed the flying track, landed on the branches, such as white clouds circulating in the sun, invisible west of Yuanzhou, Lizhou, thousands of people, and war horses rushed into the field, quickly through the Jiangdong land, along the way with the strategy of war and warfare, not to attack the city, if there is an army out of the city to intercept, then set up a formation to defeat it, and then continue to move forward.

For all the people standing on this land at the moment, the strategy of the Xia army was unpredictable.

However, the Taishou of each county or county still ordered it, and whether they could see through it or not, they all strengthened the city walls in the city, organized young people to defend the city, and the conscription orders continued to be issued.

There are also bold generals, who led the troops out of the city and wanted to give the soldiers and horses of the Xia State who entered the past from behind, however, the Hubu battalion led by Zhang Fei relied on the iron armor to block the opponent's attack, and then more than 1,000 light cavalry under the command of Zhang Liao came to reinforce and rushed to the battlefield here.

On September 11, the Bingzhou army broke into Yuanzhou, killed seventy miles and turned sharply, pounced on the Wu army from Jing County, Gao Shun led the camp to take the lead in the attack, and nailed the main force on the opposite side in place, buying a lot of time for Zhang Liao and Zhang Fei to rush to reinforcements.

On September 15, the cicadas chirped quietly, the sun converged, and there was a torrential rain on the ground in Jiangdong, and 20,000 border troops from the Wu-Yue border came from Fuzhou to kill, and the soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared made Guan Ping and Zhang Bao of the rear team unexpected.

Soon, more war reports came one after another and fell into the hands of Zhang Liao.

Since Guan Ping was defeated, this Wu soldier who suddenly killed led light cavalry and light steps to the hilly area for a long time, rushing to attack Zhang Fei's flank, but did not shake the Hubu battalion formation! Then quickly withdrew to the south, Zhang Liao, who set up an ambush in the middle of the road to reinforce, originally succeeded in a blow, but was counterattacked by Zhang Liao halfway, he personally led 800 horsemen, ran fifteen miles, and went straight into the middle of this Wu army!

The banner holding the word 'Zhou' was directly cut down, and the Wu army withdrew in panic, but was still chased and killed by Zhang Liao all the way, beheading 3,000 people.

On September 17, Zhang Fei, Gao Shun, Guan Ping, Zhang Bao, and Wei Yan from Lizhou led their troops back to reintegrate and reunite, and for the cunning Wu army, Zhang Liao and other generals knew that it was led by a man named Zhou Tiansheng.

Subordinate to the western border army of Wu State, the commander is Zhao Kangzhi, with a total strength of 20,000, coming from Fuzhou to rescue Sheng Kang, there is no nonsense on both sides, and they will be killed together directly.

This is also the most difficult bone that Zhang Liao and others encountered when they crossed the river.

For a time, the beacon fire burned half of Yuanzhou, and the counties of Qinghu, Sooyang, and Longmen counties could see the battlefield of the soldiers and horses of the Xia State and the Wu State.

As Wu Guo's side, Zhou Tiansheng was excited, he was wearing iron armor, his figure was strong and dark, and his palms were full of calluses, and he could see that he was a pragmatic general.

But few people know that he was just a Wu Min who crossed the land, and his ancestors were farmers for several generations, and when he came to him, he was also a farmer.

Two years ago, the Yue State oppressed Wu Min, many people died, many Wu Min rebelled, Zhou Tiansheng was also in the rebellious team, from an ordinary soldier, killed to the general of the rebel army, under the pursuit of the Vietnamese army, led more than 2,000 people to fight in the mountains, and finally rushed out of the encirclement of the Vietnamese army with only 1,200 remaining people, returned to Wu, and was pulled into the army by Zhao Kangzhi, forming a leading mountain army of about 8,000 people.

Two years have passed, and he has fought against the world's strongest armies, even if he was defeated on the battlefield, but in terms of tactics in those few times, he can be regarded as winning a game.

At this moment, when he clashed with the general of the Xia Kingdom named Gao Shun on the opposite side, the blood in his veins was burning.

"The second reserve team interspersed two miles from the southeast, set up an ambush first, and there were no Xia State support soldiers and horses passing by for half an hour, and immediately went north to reinforce the comrades over there."

The sound of footsteps, horses' hooves, and the sound of people talking are intertwined around Zhou Tiansheng, on the hidden hillside, he is dressed in iron armor, standing in front of the mount, looking at the direction where the sound of fighting comes from for a while, and does not turn his head to issue an order to the herald beside him, and on the back side of the hillside, the transfer of the military formation sounded, and a team of more than 100 people sneaked into the nearby mountains and forests, and went quickly.

"It deserves to be the strongest army in the world." Zhou Tiansheng had seen the Vietnamese army fighting bravely in the mountains, and his soldiers were also selected from the continuous death.

After more than three hours of battle, the camp with only more than 1,000 people showed no signs of collapse, and the other party even changed its position back and forth between attack and defense, and easily coped with the attack of his soldiers and horses.

"Hmm...... What's going on? ”

Zhou Tiansheng frowned, his eyes shifted from the message from the scout to the right flank of the battlefield at this moment.

Meanwhile.

On the other side of the battlefield, Gao Shun stood on the hill, looking at the information in his hand with a calm expression, and was extremely satisfied with the performance of the eight hundred trapping camps and two hundred auxiliary soldiers in his hands.

His requirements have been fully met.

"The Wu army on the other side, the previous style of play was good, and now it has changed steadily, it should be the chess piece of the former Taiwei in Wu Yue, I can't imagine that it has grown to such a point."

He muttered slowly, pausing, "But it's still too tender." ”

The corners of Gao Shun's mouth hooked a sneer, and the herald on the side seemed to have been waiting for this expression for a long time, and immediately turned around and ran, pulling his bow and shooting arrows, and the field below the hill, the trapped camp that was originally stuck there like a nail, suddenly changed its offensive, and pressed towards the Wu army that was constantly attacking.
