…

Liangzhejiang Road was the area with the highest level of economic development and the richest in the Zhao and Song dynasties. The huge expenditure of Kaifeng Mansion, the capital of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and the huge consumption of the royal family, the clan, the aristocracy, the officials, and the forbidden army, a large part of them were taken from these two roads, so these two roads have always been called the "southeast wealth area" of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and they are also the economic lifeblood of the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Therefore, the Zhao and Song dynasties stationed an elite forbidden army near Hangzhou, the center of the Liangzhejiang Road.

This elite forbidden army, well-equipped and often trained, seems to have an absolute advantage over the rebels who only have rudimentary weapons and no armor, even if the rebels are dozens of times their number.

At least that's what Cai Zun and Yan Tan, the commanders of this elite forbidden army, think.

Cai Zun and Yan Tan, who were ordered to come to Qingxi County to exterminate the base camp of the rebels, thought that they had found a great opportunity to slaughter the villagers and ask for merit and reward.

Along the way, the elite forbidden army led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan has never encountered any resistance, and occasionally there are groups of suspected rebels, after seeing the elite forbidden army led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan, they were frightened and scattered, which seems to confirm Cai Zun and Yan Tan's judgment on the situation of coming to Qingxi County to suppress the rebels.

On the evening of 22 November, the elite forbidden army led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan arrived at Wannian Town, more than 60 miles west of Qingxi County, without any problems.

This place is already very close to the Gangyuan Cave, the base camp of Fang La's righteous army.

The 5,000 elite forbidden army, exhausted by the long journey, is ready to set up camp in Wannian Town, bury the pot to make food, and kill Xiangbangyuandong tomorrow to exterminate the group of Fangla rebels in one fell swoop.

But as soon as the 5,000 elite forbidden army stopped, a shout suddenly sounded, and then a rebel army with tens of thousands of horses appeared in front of them.

Seeing this, Cai Zun and Yan Tan immediately gave up their encampment and ordered the whole army to attack.

Seeing the officers and soldiers coming in full armor, the rebels were so frightened that they turned around and ran.

Seeing this, the five thousand elite forbidden troops chased even more vigorously.

Chasing all the way to Xikeng, Yan Tan felt that there was a thick yin qi in this pit, and the situation seemed to be a little bad.

Yan Tan just wanted to discuss with Cai Zun, don't chase any more, so as not to fall into the trap of the rebels, but the rebels they had been following suddenly stopped, and then turned their guns.

Seeing this, Cai Zun also realized that something had happened.

Cai Zun and Yan Tan were hesitating, and suddenly shouted to kill, and then countless torches on the mountain reflected the river red.

Cai Zun and Yan Tan knew the plan and urgently ordered them to retreat!

But it's too late!

- They have fallen into the net of Fang La's righteous army!

The drums are blowing!

Countless Fangla rebels wearing various colored turbans, accompanied by the cheering of war drums, poured into the pit from all directions.

Immediately afterward, countless rebels suddenly appeared around the pit, and under the leadership of the Manichaeans, they chanted loudly: "Burn my body, blazing fire." There is no joy in life, and there is no pain in death. For the good to eliminate the evil, but the light is the same. Joy and sorrow are dust. Have mercy on the world, and there are many sorrows. Have mercy on the world, and there are many sorrows......"

Fang Jie, Deng Yuanjue, Wang Yin, Bao Daoyi, Du Wei, Li Tianyan, Zheng Biao, Liu Yun......

Fang La's generals came out together.

The Fangla rebels also used the Manichaean tactics that had been passed down for hundreds of years - the tactics of crowds.

There is no suspense in this battle.

To be honest, there was no fluke in the victory of the Fang Layi army in this battle, and it was all based on strength.

They used a series of tactics such as arrogant tactics, luring the enemy to go deeper, waiting for work at leisure, and using the night to greatly reduce the power of the Song army's sharp long-range weapons, and the Fang La Yi army was also equipped with the armor given to them by Jiang Hongfei, and it was too normal to defeat the Song army that had committed many taboos.

Anyone who has watched the whole story of this battle has to say that there are masters in the Fangla Yi army, and this battle is really good.

Fang La and the other people of Fang La's righteous army were also quite complacent, feeling that they were fighting steadily and steadily, and it was right to spend more than a month training the team, otherwise how could they achieve a great victory in Xikeng, and completely annihilate the elite of the 5,000 forbidden army?

After eliminating the elite of the 5,000 forbidden army led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan, Fang La determined that the Song army was over, so he immediately led 20,000 righteous troops to attack Qingxi County.

Chen Guang and other officials and landlords in Qingxi heard from the people who had fled that the elite of the 5,000 forbidden army led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan had been completely annihilated by Fang La's righteous army, and they immediately hurried out of the city and fled for their lives.

Fang La attacked Qingxi County without much effort.

Just when Fang La arrested all the officials who did not escape in time in Qingxi County, or cut off their limbs, probed their lungs and intestines, or boiled them with anointing oil, or shot them to death with arrows, took revenge, and celebrated greatly, suddenly someone from Hangzhou came to Fang La, and said to Fang La: "The holy woman has captured Hangzhou at the beginning of the month, and the situation of my uprising is very good, and the overthrow of the violent Song Dynasty is just around the corner!" ”

“？？？？？？？？？”

This person's inadvertent words made Fang La, who was still venting their resentment in their hearts, and Fang La's subordinates, stop the carnival and be stunned!

What's the situation?

They have only defeated a county town on the side of the Yijun army, and Jiang Hongfei has already defeated Hangzhou, the political, economic, and cultural center of the Zhao and Song dynasties in the southeast?

How is this possible?!!!

Soon, more and more news came from Hangzhou or from other places.

Only then did Fang La and the others know that Jiang Hongfei had not only defeated Hangzhou, but also in the month that they were training their team, Jiang Hongfei set out from Jiangzhou and successively defeated Chizhou, Wuwei Army, Xuanzhou, Guangde Army, and Huzhou, and at the beginning of this month, he even defeated Hangzhou in one fell swoop.

Fang La and the others are going crazy!

Jiang Yan, what the hell are you going to do?!

Fang La was even more crazy: ", you're done, what will I eat?!!! ”

Fang La felt that Jiang Hongfei had already taken the lead.

No.

And that's not even the scariest of all.

Fang La and they were very afraid that Jiang Hongfei would occupy the magpie's nest and occupy the southeast.

If this is the case, then Fang La and them will undoubtedly lure the wolf into the room.

The key is, if things really develop like this, where will Fang La and them go? Their years of hard work may also be in vain, right?

Fang La: They didn't care about celebrating.

Fang La even ordered overnight: Eastern Expedition, Fast, Eastern Expedition!!

……

Turn the clock back to the end of October.

After conquering Huzhou, Jiang Hongfei arranged good people to replace the people of Tianxingdao as usual, and then ordered the formation of the Zhennan Fifth Army within the framework of the Huzhou heroes under Lu Xing'er and some meritorious figures of the Zhennan Army.

However, Jiang Hongfei did not wait for the formation of the Zhennan Fifth Army to be completed, and personally led the army to Hangzhou.

The southeast shape wins, the three Wu metropolises, and Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times!

This is a sentence sung by the Northern Song Dynasty poets in praise of Hangzhou.

It is true that Hangzhou, with beautiful mountains and rivers, picturesque scenery and outstanding people, has always been the capital of the two Zhejiang roads of the Zhao and Song dynasties, and the center of politics, economy and culture in the southeast.

Countless big bureaucrats, big landlords, and big businessmen all regard Hangzhou as their gold cave and comfort nest, and they have gathered here in Hangzhou to indulge in pleasures.

Powerful people are not only obsessed with this place during their lifetime, but even want to be buried in Hangzhou, which is "built in the first Qiantang and extremely majestic" after death, such as Cai Jing, the prime minister of the Zhao and Song dynasties, who was once above 10,000 people under one person, buried his father here.

Therefore, Hangzhou City is almost the second richest capital of the Zhao and Song Dynasty after Tokyo Bianliang City.

The topography of Hangzhou is inclined from northwest to southeast, and the area is surrounded by mountains on the north, west and south, forming a horseshoe-shaped barrier in the southeast direction, and there are many lofty mountains and deep ravines and valleys in the northwest; The southeast is hilly and wide, the terrain is flat, and it is a natural place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

In order to ensure that this rich capital is more impregnable, the Zhao and Song dynasties spent nearly two hundred years on the basis of the former Hangzhou City, from Qinwang Mountain, from the east of the Jiajiang River to the Ganjiang River, Qiantang Lake, Huoshan, Fanpu, and Zhou 70 li to build an impregnable Hangzhou outer city.

And there are thousands of elite soldiers and strong generals in the city, and mountains of grain and grass.

These are enough to ensure that Hangzhou City can hold on for a long time.

However, Zhao Ting, the current supreme leader of Hangzhou, is a cowardly person, and he feels that this uprising in front of his house is extraordinary, so he does not dare to defend Hangzhou.

But on the other hand, Zhao Ting was afraid that the Zhao Song court would hold him accountable for abandoning the city and fleeing.

Therefore, Zhao Ting wanted to burn the millions of stone grain and grass in the city of Hangzhou, and said: "The ant thieves are powerful, invincible, we should destroy the grain and grass in Hangzhou, the strong wall is clear, the number of ant thieves is large, if there is no grain and grass support, we will leave without a fight, then we will go back to Hangzhou, clean up the mess, and the thieves can surrender without a fight." ”

Chen Jian, Zhao Yue and others did not agree with Zhao Ting's idea.

You must know that these local officials have the responsibility of defending the land.

Be.

If things are really as Zhao Ting imagined, they can consume the righteous army, and then recover Hangzhou, they may have no merit or merit.

But if they fail to exhaust the rebels, then they abandon the city and flee, but they will be severely punished by the imperial court.

Moreover, there are not only 35,000 soldiers in Hangzhou City, but also hundreds of thousands of households.

The key is that once Zhao Ting burns these millions of stone grains, millions of people here in Hangzhou will have to starve, and at that time, it is difficult to say what will happen.

Just when the two sides were arguing, Jiang Hongfei led a large army to the city of Hangzhou.

For Hangzhou, a rich metropolis second only to Bianliang City in Tokyo, Jiang Hongfei attaches great importance to it.

In order to take Hangzhou City smoothly and as completely as possible.

Jiang Hongfei decided to come up with a killer feature that he had been preparing for many years.

The killer feature is a hot air balloon!

Jiang Hongfei originally had Liu Huiniang as a skilled craftsman in his hands.

Later, when Jiang Hongfei annexed Naitou Mountain, he got Bai Valhan, a native of Atlantic Europa, the son of a famous Western skillful master, and the successor of Yang Mano's "Wheel and Mechanical Classics".

The combination of Jiang Hongfei, Liu Huiniang, and Bai Valhan has come up with a lot of strange things.

For example: similar to Jiang Hongfei's previous tank's "Thunder Car".

For example: the "sinking snail boat" similar to Jiang Hongfei's giant submarine in his last life.

Another example: hot air balloons.

Because this hot air balloon was produced with the participation of Liu Huiniang and Bai Valhan, it inevitably has some characteristics of this world.

For example, Liu Huiniang and Bai Valhan insisted on making these hot air balloons look like fierce beasts.

At the beginning of November, the moon was as cold as a hook.

In this winter season, standing on the unobstructed city wall to defend the city is very sinful for the defenders.

Fortunately, the dignitaries, wealthy families, and gentry in Hangzhou City mobilized 50,000 braves, and they could take turns to rest.

Those who were temporarily conscripted, they sat on the city wall in groups of three and five, cursing the ant thieves while cooking the fire.

Suddenly!

Someone could see through the moonlight, which was not too bright, that a group of things seemed to be flying in the sky in the distance.

These people are talking a lot.

So much so that soon all the defenders on the city walls looked into the unknown sky.

Soon, someone saw clearly:

The lion shook its head. The shining gold deer is majestic, and the Jinxiu is brave. The jackal fights against it, spits out its fangs and goes straight to the male soldiers; There are herds of tigers and leopards, and they come to bite bad horses with huge mouths. The spiky boar rushes in, and the curly-haired vicious dog hits the man. Like a dragon and a python flying in the sky, swallowing like a stubborn snake and falling to the ground.

I saw a large group of fierce beasts as if flying from the sky.

This scared a lot of people, "Ah! With a strange scream, he fled off the wall.

After a while, a strange wind blew, and in an instant, the sand and rocks were flying, shaking the ground and shaking the sky, blowing a strange wind, and swept over the opponent.

The Song army immediately couldn't look at each other, so startled that the horse sat down and roared, and everyone turned around and left.

After a while, a black gas spread for half a day in an instant, faint and miserable, and many things like fine sand and iron filings hit the person's body, and the skin and flesh were scorched, so unbearable, and the Song soldiers were in chaos when they were in turmoil.

At this moment, more than a dozen flying bridges were built directly onto the city walls.

Shi Bao waved his knife, and the Ma Qi Army, who had been in ambush for a long time in the darkness under the city, immediately killed the city wall through the flying bridge......

Then, the Zhennan Second Army and the Zhennan Third Army also attacked the city wall through the flying bridge......

Taking advantage of this moment, those hot air balloons also came to the sky above the city wall.

The soldiers of the Zhennan First Army in the hot air balloon condescendingly shot the Song soldiers who were still on the city wall and refused to go down the wall.

Jiang Hongfei, who was in the middle of the hot air balloons, saw the opportunity and sent Gao Liang, Chen Liqing, Hua Baoyan, Hu Sanniang, Qiongying, Su Jinniang, Fang Baihua, Pang Qiuxia, and Liang Hongyu to the city wall.

After this group of tigresses climbed the city wall, they immediately rushed left and right, killing the Song soldiers on their backs.

Chen Liqing took the lead, with a green sword in her left hand and a pear blossom ancient gun in her right hand.

Liang Hongyu, who saw this, couldn't help but swallow her saliva, and she said in her heart: "Her killing method, not to mention a thousand people, is the ten thousand people who are killed, and it is just around the corner!" ”

Liang Hongyu looked at Gao Liang and other women, and they were all good at competing one by one.

Suddenly!

I don't know where a Song soldier came, and slashed at Liang Hongyu with a knife.

Liang Hongyu subconsciously dodged, and then shot back and took the Song soldier away.

At this time, Liang Hongyu reacted, she really went to the battlefield, if she didn't want to die, she could only show her real skills.

Seeing a large group of Song Jun rushing towards her, a large rope appeared out of thin air, and one end of it automatically wrapped around Liang Hongyu's waist.

The next moment, Liang Hongyu was like a beautiful snake, slaughtering those Song army soldiers in various weird ways and joining the battle group.

Due to the large number of defenders, although Jiang Hongfei's side made frequent strange moves, Jiang Hongfei even went into battle in person, but it was only after about an hour of fighting that the defenders were defeated, jumped off the city wall one after another, and retreated into the city......

Hangzhou city is broken!
