Chapter 113: The First World War Decided to Choke the River

Wuhu is adjacent to the Yangtze River, located in the southwest of Jiqing, is another important town in the south of the Yuan Dynasty Jiangnan Province in addition to Jiqing. Here the water town Zeguo, the road is intricate, the water and land are camped, if you go south from Chuzhou, you have to break through the naval army camp that stretches for dozens of miles. Although some of the naval boat divisions rushed down the river to help Jiqing, the strength left in the battalion should not be underestimated.

Although the development of Chuzhou has improved in the past two years, it is still not enough to take Wuhu alone. In particular, there is a serious shortage of warships, and it is impossible to break through the naval army camp on the south bank of the Yangtze River, let alone directly capture Wuhu City!

Among the many leaders of the rebel army, there are not many wise people, and one of the leaders of the rebel army named Chen Yexian is even more unequivocally skeptical that the little devil can capture Wuhu. But everyone was tempted by the prospect depicted by Zhao Yu, and where could they listen to these objections. More than 10,000 troops marched in a noisy and chaotic manner.

The opposition failed, and several volunteer leaders also sent scouts one after another to try to grasp the situation of the enemy army in detail.

Zhao Yu marched with the army, and all the scouts who were turned into hundreds of overseers under his direct control were scattered, and good news continued to come from the front to inform the whole army. Everyone became more and more excited, urging their subordinates to move quickly, and they did not relax for a moment, and everyone wanted to compete for the first credit in Wuhu. In the chaos, no one noticed the reward, and the scouts were all faces they had never seen before.

In order to cooperate with this operation, the elite battalions of the Five Elements Banner were all transferred to the south bank of the Yangtze River, on the one hand, to report news, and on the other hand, to kill the scouts sent by the rebel army in southern Anhui. When everyone was blinded, the situation in Wuhu was in Zhao Yu's heart.

More than 200 elites of the Five Elements Banner quietly infiltrated the rebel army and gathered around Zhao Yu, who were responsible for grasping the fighters in the chaotic army and protecting Zhao Yu's safety. The real two armies fought fiercely, and no matter how strong their martial arts were, they might not be able to save their lives. In order to ensure that Zhao Yu was safe and sound, even Zhuang Zheng and several other flag bearers disguised themselves to guard him to be foolproof.

At the darkest hour of dawn, the rebel army gradually approached Wuhu, and the dark city wall was still in sight at night. Many of the unextinguished fires burned with embers and puffs of smoke and dust. The rebels, who had marched all night, did not get tired, and they mustered up the last of their strength and rushed forward with a roar.

When the east was not white, the battle began. The knight battalion, which had been charging ahead, was the first to collide with the enemy army who were waiting for the battle, and unlike the remnants of the soldiers they expected, they were greeted by the elite soldiers of the Yuan people, who were extremely neat and tidy. As soon as they came into contact, the chivalrous battalion suffered heavy casualties and lost more than 100 people! The momentum of the advance was suddenly curbed, and the Chinese army collided with the front army, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

The drawbacks of not being able to carry out military orders were exposed, and in the chaos, the news before and after was almost cut off. The rebels who were delayed had no way of knowing what was ahead, and when they saw the fire at the head of the city, they thought that the front army had begun to attack the city, and for a time they flocked forward. Having breached many dock forts along the way, they knew that the first team to storm the city would get the best harvest, and they didn't want to be eaten by friendly troops, leaving them with only a scrap of leftovers.

Li Huangshan, who had no other arms, had already secretly restrained the team, faintly disconnected from the brigade, and was the least affected by this turmoil that swept the whole army. Seeing the chaos suddenly, he faintly sensed that something was wrong, and just saw Zhao Yu get out of the chaotic army and rush here, so he asked urgently: "Zhan Shaoxia, what is the situation ahead?"

Zhao Yulang said with a smile: "Our army is like a bamboo, and it is about to capture Wuhu!"

"How could it be ......"

Rao is Li Huangshan is not familiar with military affairs, but he still saw that the current situation was somewhat inappropriate with Zhao Yu's description, and was about to ask in detail again, but he was shocked to find that Zhao Yu rushed towards him, and the momentum was like lightning! He opened his mouth wide to exclaim, but suddenly found that his chin had been removed, and his whole body fell off the horse involuntarily.

"Sir!"

Laifu, who was close to Li Huangshan, saw that Zhao Yu suddenly attacked Li Huangshan, and slashed with his palm, but was captured by Zhuang Zheng, who had been waiting for the opportunity for a long time!

At this time, the sky was dark, and everyone didn't know what was happening here, only to hear Zhao Yu shouting: "Lord Li Bao has been hit by a stray arrow, everyone be careful!"

Hearing that the boss was injured, everyone was in an uproar, panicked, and when they were at a loss, they heard Zhao Yu shouting: "Rush to the east and break through the enemy's camp!"

When people are panicked, they are the most blindly obedient, and Zhao Yu has already established his prestige in the Zhuang Ding team, and when he heard the cheers, everyone rushed to the east without hesitation. At this time, the battlefield was already chaotic, and they were fighting separately, and Zhao Yu led the thousand living forces to quickly get rid of the battle group and rush to the weak rear of the Yuan army.

There are 3,000 elite soldiers stationed in the Wuhu land camp, and there are still 2,000 defenders in the city. With the current strength of the Chuzhou army, there is little hope for a battle. But the appearance of the rebel army in southern Anhui made Zhao Yu see hope. When he decided to lure the Southern Anhui Righteous Army here, he had already sent a message to Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, who were stationed in Chuzhou, that with their clever military strategy, they would definitely capture this fighter!

The 3,000 yuan soldiers in the army camp are all elite divisions, and Zhao Yu does not expect that these more than 10,000 rabble can overcome them, as long as they can be tied up for a while, they can win a chance for the Chuzhou army. When he circled the field for half a week, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the rebel army in southern Anhui was even more brave than he imagined, not only was it killed, but the Yuan army's formation was chaotic. Such things that did not conform to the common sense of the art of war were really beyond his expectations.

The rebel army in southern Anhui fought separately, but instead of a unified commander, even the tactics were varied and strange. The rhythm of their respective battles was different, which made the Yuan army, who was accustomed to regular fighting, feel at a loss, and even had a bit of the courage to kill the master with random punches.

The Yuan army camp was extremely weak, Zhao Yu took the elite of the Five Elements Banner as the arrow, rushed all the way in, drove straight in, and directly took the Yuan army camp!

The unconventional performance of the rebel army in southern Anhui was extremely heavy, and the casualties were extremely heavy, with nearly forty percent of the losses, especially the chivalrous battalion that bore the brunt of the battle, and almost the entire army was wiped out! When Zhao Yu was killed in the battle circle, the blood plasma almost submerged the ankles, and there were nearly 1,000 people in the chivalrous battalion, and only a few dozen people were still struggling to support it. Not only did they resist the Yuan army's charge head-on, but they were also constantly attacked by friendly forces behind them, which can be called the enemy on their backs. In such a tragic situation, Zhao Yu, who single-handedly pushed them to a desperate situation, couldn't bear it.

After observing for a while, Zhao Yu found that Song Qingshu had disappeared without a trace, and couldn't help but get nervous. Although he didn't care about Song Qingshu's life and death, this person was the most high-profile person in the third generation of the Wudang faction, and if he died here, he would inevitably have a bad relationship with the Wudang faction, and it would have a bad impact on the development of Chuzhou.

At this time, although the formation of the Yuan soldiers had collapsed, the battle was far from over. Everywhere you can see dozens of hundreds of Yuan soldiers struggling to resist, the southern Anhui rebels did not pay attention to surrendering and not killing, and now all the departments are also red-eyed, and the fighting is still continuing.

Seeing this chaos, it was impossible to find someone. Zhao Yu thought about it for a while, then gave up looking for Song Qingshu, and instead led the elite battalion of the Five Elements Banner that had been gathered to kill the naval army that was leaving the camp to come to the rescue. After several years of training, the elite battalion of the Five Elements Banner finally showed its edge on the battlefield, and its morale was like a rainbow.

The battle lasted for nearly two hours, and when the sampan boat of the Chuzhou army covering the sky and the sun passed out on the river, the overall situation was finally decided!

Xu Da and Chang Yuchun led nearly 10,000 troops to the battlefield, and the troops were divided into two ways, one way to Wuhu, and the other way to join the extermination of the Yuan people's rout. Mourning is everywhere, and those who block are invincible!

The captives of the army in the battlefield in the autumn wind swept the leaves, the roar of surrender without killing shook the earth, the long-fought southern Anhui rebels and Yuan soldiers have become the end of the crossbow, except to abandon the weapon and surrender, there is no other way!

After the dust settled, Zhao Yu returned to his original appearance and patrolled the battlefield with the support of the Chuzhou army. Everywhere they passed, the newly defeated army was silent and did not dare to make a noise.

At this moment, an untimely and angry scream sounded in the crowd: "What about Zhan Dong? Isn't he dead? Didn't he say that the Little Demon Lord had already captured Wuhu? Didn't he say that this battle would be won?"

Hearing Song Qingshu's angry roar, Zhao Yu knew that his life was safe, walked over slowly, pointed to the rising military flag of the captives at the head of Wuhu City, and said with a smile: "Wuhu, it's mine now!"
