Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 426
In late July, the scorching heat in the air dissipated a lot. Before that, many soldiers of the Qin Army fell ill because they were not used to the climate. Now the weather has turned cooler and they are gradually recovering.

Looking down from the Shuangnvfeng, the Southern Han army camps in the distance are chaotic, and the fences stretching for tens of miles are built on the beach, layered and densely packed. The dense river network is relied on by the Southern Han army, but most of the rivers here are not wide. , You can easily cross over with rafts, and pontoon bridges can be erected in many places.

Most importantly, after a month of exposure to the sun, most of the surrounding bamboo and wood have become dry.

"Marshal, I think it's almost there. If it rains in a few days, it will be troublesome." Dang Jin beside him said.

Pan Mei stared down, "Is there any news from the Navy?"

Yin Chongke said, "They said they had already landed and cut off the retreat of the bandits a hundred miles to the south, but they didn't dare to get too close, for fear that the enemy in the north would be alert."

Pan Mei nodded and asked, "How are the supplies in the army prepared?"

"It's almost there, Commander, the bandits don't need to be beaten at all. If you want me to say that they are almost enough, they just rush over. Brothers are not afraid of them. They can't use so much fish oil and gunpowder." Many generals are already eager to try. resistance.

Pan Mei looked back at them with a serious face: "Stop talking nonsense and go get ready.

Supplies are not available every day, and no attack can be made every day. The thieves and soldiers are weak, but the lion fights the rabbit with all its strength, so there must be no sloppy in this matter.

Who dares to be careless and go to the rear to supervise the transportation of grain and grass. "He said without a doubt.

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, cupped their hands and said, "No!"

Pan Mei is the coach, and she also has Shang Fang's sword. Everyone dared not disobey and agreed.

After everyone retreated, Pan Meicai shook his head. He was not in a hurry, he had achieved great success in front of his eyes, and if he won this round, it would be a foregone conclusion to destroy Nanhan.

Coupled with the fact that they have won consecutive battles for several months, they have made everyone feel underestimated and more aggressive.

But the more this is the case, the more calm he is as the coach.

Pan Mei thought for a while, and soon thought of the Jiannan Army led by Cao Bin.

The Jiannan army was mainly composed of Shu soldiers and Hanzhong soldiers. He was very surprised along the way. After all, when the Shu army attacked Shu before this year, it was still "14 people disarmed", which was completely vulnerable.

Unexpectedly, after several years of training by Cao Bin, Guo Tingwei and others, the Jiannan Army of more than [-] people from Sichuan has performed very well in battle. They have defeated the enemy one after another along the way. Military discipline is strict.

Even compared to the Central Forbidden Army, their military discipline is stricter, they have never looted people, and they have never retreated in battle.

It's just that he had been worried about the troops from Shu before. After all, the embarrassing performance a few years ago was still vivid in his memory, so even if they played well, he didn't dare to use them as forwards, only as the flanks and the main force to assist the friendly forces.

Now that Daliang's forbidden army has fought so smoothly all the way, it is already a bit arrogant. It seems that it is time for the Jiannan army to be the vanguard of this general attack.

Looking down at the enemy camp at the foot of the mountain, Pan Mei was thinking in her mind.

In the Southern Han camp, there were figures everywhere, and there was an atmosphere of uneasiness.

Soldiers patrolling the camp came and went, there were always guards on the far side of the fence, and many people rested listlessly under the shadow of the camp.

It was rumored that many cavalrymen were going back and forth, and they could still hear the yelling and cursing of the Qin army in the north.

Most of them fled from the Lianhua Mountain in the north. They had seen how powerful the Qin army was, and they didn't even dare to fight the Qin army. Many of them were trembling. Someone started running away.

From time to time, in the direction of the large tent of the Chinese army, the sound of gongs and drums can be heard, and some inexplicable chanting can be heard from time to time.

Everyone has already seen the strangeness, and they are too lazy to take a look. This is another important reason why many people want to escape.

Guo Chongyue had no general talent, and the reason why he was able to be reused by the lord was only because he was the true godson of Liang Luan, the court lady trusted by the lord.

In the Southern Han Dynasty, the king was extremely tyrannical, extremely absurd, and superstitious about ghosts and gods. Therefore, the government has always been controlled by court ladies, eunuchs, and witches. The witch headed by the witch Fan Huzi is the most powerful, because the king believes in everything. He is the son of the Jade Emperor, and the king was very happy when he was tricked.

The eunuchs and maids are the best at currying favor with the lord of the country. If civil and military men in the country want to climb up, they either wield their swords from the palace, or they can only please the eunuchs and maids. As their godsons, this trend is very prevalent.

So even at the time of life and death, the lord of the country still chooses the godson of his beloved court lady to lead the army.

Guo Chongyue was originally an idiot who believed in ghosts and gods. He would fight whatever battles he would fight, and he always stood on his own and refused to fight. He didn't do anything else on weekdays. He just let monks and Taoists do it in the camp day and night, begging the gods to bless him.

So there are scenes of beating gongs and drums day and night to dance to the gods.

However, the general under his command, Zhi Tingxiao, repeatedly pleaded for orders to lead his troops out to fight the Qin army to the death, because he felt that this place could not be defended and would fall sooner or later, and he heard that there was still a large Qin army on the west road, and they had already gone down the Guijiang River. Maybe it's almost time to arrive in Panyu.

If they don't fight quickly, they may be outflanked by both sides. No matter if they win or lose, they can't delay.

Moreover, Qin Jun yelled insults at the gate of Daying every day, which made a bloody man like him unable to bear the humiliation, and asked for a fight again and again.

However, the main general Guo Chongyue never allowed him to play.

Zhi Tingxiao is not an eunuch, nor is he the godson of an eunuch and court lady in the court, so he can't be the master. This time the coach is Guo.

"The Qin army is taking advantage of the mighty force sweeping across the north. Although we have many soldiers, most of them are wounded and exhausted troops. We still have a large number of soldiers. We must push forward and fight quickly, otherwise we will drag on. Will sit still.

Besides, the Qin Army and the West Route Army may be approaching Panyu at this time. If they land behind us, we will be attacked by the enemy, and there will be no survivors!

Marshal, if you drag it on, you will definitely die, why not take advantage of the present and go all out! Zhi Ting Xiaoyi, outside the big account, said angrily. He couldn't remember how many times he came to ask for a fight.

Guo Chongyue looked nervously at the witches in the distance dancing the divine dance, respectfully burning incense in the incense burner, and a big altar was set up outside the big tent, and he looked back at Zhi Tingxiao after all these were done. .

Zhi Tingxiao was angry in his heart, clenched his fists tightly, "Marshal! Marshal just needs to sit in the rear and give me five thousand elite soldiers. I will go to the formation to defeat the enemy. If I lose, I will never come back. In this way, even if there is a mistake, it will be the same. I am determined to go my own way, and have nothing to do with the commander in chief, you go and explain to the lord!"

Guo Chongyue glanced at him, his eyes flickering, and facing his anxious gaze, he finally said: "Let the fairy divination be read first." After speaking, he turned and entered the Chinese army tent.

"Marshal!" Zhi Tingxiao frowned tightly, with bulging veins on his forehead, looking very angry, he could only sigh, and turned to leave.
