Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 731
At this moment, a soldier ran quickly.Xiang Zheyanzhi crossed his hands and said, "Ducheng, the little one was just ordered to report to the governor of Huangzhou. How did you know that as soon as he got close to the city, there was a shout of killing from inside. I asked someone to ask, and it was said that Lu Xingchun, the inspector, suddenly It's the opposite. Kill Zhizhou and loot Huangzhou City."

Orihiko heard this, and couldn't help frowning.After a while, he let out a long sigh.Said: "This time it must be the Jin army who came, and even Lu Xingchun in Huangzhou persuaded him to rebel. Forget it, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more. Tan Xunjian quickly brought people into Huangzhou to put down Lu Xingchun's chaos .Tomorrow morning, I will write to the states. If you find the Jin army, quickly intercept it. Tonight, seeing that there are a lot of Jin soldiers, but there are no large troops around, it is a bit difficult."

Tan Xunjian forked his hands and said, well.Quickly rectify the troops and go to Huangzhou to quell the chaos.

Orihiko frowned tightly, looking at Huangzhou City not far away, thinking secretly in his heart.

Wan Yanchang suddenly went south and mobilized the Song army to go east.From Ezhou to Qizhou, the defense line of the Yangtze River nearly a thousand miles away, it seems that it is also for artillery.For the artillery, the Jin army used such a powerful force, but they knew nothing about it, so what else can they say?
If you want to go north, there are nothing more than two roads.Go to Tuanfeng Town, go upstream along the Qiting River, go to Macheng, Shangcheng, and arrive at Gushi.Go to Yangluo Town, go to Baisha Town to Gwangju.Orihiko wanted to come, the Jin Army is likely to go to the front line of Tuanfeng Town.Along the Qiting River, cross the Dabie Mountains and then enter the Guanhe River, and then walk along the Huaihe River to enter Shouchun.

Judging from tonight, the number of Jinjun is quite large, at least a few hundred.Where is there any army in this area that can stop the Jin army?There are only a few hundred troops in Huangzhou, and they have already rebelled.Xu Yueben from Gwangju in the north was a local tyrant, but his number is unknown.It's just this Xu Yue, who has been inclined to pretend to be Qi Liuyu in the past two years, how could he really help himself?
Under the moonlight, Orihiko walked back and forth with his hands behind his back.After much deliberation, I can't think of a way.

It was midnight when Xu Wen arrived at Tuanfeng Town.

He Ning had been waiting in the ruined temple early.Seeing Xu Wen coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The artillery is in hand! Commander, what should we do now?"

Xu Wendao: "I can't wait. Immediately order to go up the river along the Qiting River! Order the soldiers to take turns to stretch the fibers, day and night, the sooner the better! Within two days, I will arrive in Macheng County!"

He Ning said yes.But seeing Xu Wen's firm attitude, I couldn't help feeling cold.

Tuanfeng Town is [-] miles away from Macheng County, and if you arrive within two days, you will have to walk [-] miles a day and a night.Don't talk about stretching, even if the army is rushing, this speed is enough to run to death.Xu Wen's attitude is that people can die from exhaustion, but the road must be rushed.

At this time, the nearest army that the Song Dynasty could mobilize was Yue Fei who was stationed in Jiangzhou.As long as they cross the Dabie Mountains within five or six days, Orihiko tried his best, and Yue Fei was willing to send troops, but it was useless.

Xu Yueshou used both ends of the mouse, and used the Song Dynasty and the pseudo-Qi Dynasty names at the same time. Not only was he not resolute in resisting the Jin Dynasty, but he was also forced by the situation.

South of Gwangju, Huangzhou and Qizhou have always been occupied by Li Cheng and Kong Yanzhou.These two people refused to accept the control of the Song Dynasty, and Xu Yue had no choice.Unless he turns to Wang Xiaolie, Xu Yue will be under tremendous pressure from the puppet Qi and has no strength to support him.But Wang Xiaolie's attitude is very ambiguous.Jingxi Road is the site granted to Wang Xiaolie by the Song Dynasty, and Wang Xiaolie does not allow anyone to intervene.Gwangju is Huainan West Road, and Wang Xiaolie never interfered.

As a local tyrant with soldiers under his command, how could Xu Yue be willing to join Wang Xiaolie?When he was under Wang Xiaolie's command, all his troops had to be dispersed, and Wang Xiaolie had to arrange official positions.I'm used to giving orders, how can Xu Yue stand this kind of anger?

Now Wang Xiaolie has dozens of states and 10,000+ troops under his rule.Except for the Hedong Rebel Army, there are almost no local forces to take refuge in.A very important reason is that Wang Xiaolie does not allow his subordinates to have independent forces.Just like Zhai Cong and Dong Xian, the army must be disbanded and the official positions must be rearranged.It's not that there is no way, which local forces are willing to accept such conditions?No matter how small your own power is, you are still dominating one side.

This time the Jin army went south, Xu Yue just sent his subordinate Zhang Ju to monitor, and Shangcheng Town and other places completely gave up defense.

Xu Wen thought for a while and said: "There are a lot of treasures on the Song Army ship, let's give all of them to the subordinates. In the next few days, we must risk our lives and cross the Dabie Mountains as quickly as possible. As long as we arrive at the mall, it will be smooth sailing." , there is no obstacle. If Song Jun catches up, it will be hard to say."

He Ning crossed her hands: "Don't worry about the control, the soldiers will definitely use their lives!"

Xu Wendao: "This is the best. I would like to thank everyone for transporting the artillery to Shouzhou! Wang Xiaolie was originally a rebel army in the Song Dynasty. When he arrived in Kaifeng, there were only a few hundred people. There is no force to suppress him, and the army has expanded to more than [-] within a year or two. Over the years, he has won many battles and defeated generals in succession, relying on artillery. We have artillery, and we are no longer afraid of Wang Xiaolie. At that time, the army Go south, even the emperor of Song Dynasty will be captured together!"

He Ning said: "The control is right. When Wang Xiaolie raised his troops, he was only a young man, so what skills did he have? He was invincible for a while with artillery, and he has the power he has today. When our army is also equipped with artillery, then Time to take revenge on Shanzhou!"

The two were so impassioned that they were spitting.I seem to have forgotten that when Wang Xiaolie rescued Shanzhou twice and defeated Lou Su and Zhe Keqiu, the army was not equipped with artillery.When Jingmen blocked Balisu and Wanyan Yuying's nephew and won a big victory, there were no artillery.

Xu Wen grabbed the cannon, and the happiest thing was Wan Yanchang who had been on the East Road.

Opposite Wan Yanchang, there is no such formidable opponent as Wang Xiaolie.Although Han Shizhong and others are fierce generals, they are only fierce generals.If you want to stop the Jin army, one person is not enough.As for the other generals, no one has yet appeared to cause headaches for the Jin army.With artillery, Wan Yanchang can sweep across the two Huaihe Rivers if he is willing.If the two Huaihe Rivers are not guaranteed, how can the Song army guard the south of the Yangtze River?At that time, Wanyanchang's power might catch up with Nianhan's.

The two were talking, and the soldiers brought up the wine and meat.

After pouring the wine, Xu Wen held up the bowl and said, "We have captured the cannon tonight, and our army has added a great weapon! Come, let's celebrate this together!"

Several generals raised their bowls together and drank the wine in one gulp.Pick up a large piece of meat and gobble it up.

The Jin army outside is preparing cables.He Ning gave the reward, and everyone's morale was high.

The south of the Dabie Mountains is rainy, the water network is densely covered, and the shipping is developed.The Qiting River is deep, and it is the waterway from Macheng to the Yangtze River, nourishing the soil and water.However, going upstream from Tuanfeng Town to reach Macheng County within two days is an arduous task.It can even be said that it is impossible to kill a group of people.

It's just that the Jinren established the country not long ago, and many soldiers are used to life and death, and they are not afraid.There are rewards to stimulate, and everyone is high-spirited.

A two-thousand-jin cannon is very heavy on land, but it is different in water.For speed, the boat is as light as possible.Several thousand catties are loaded on one ship, and the cannons are even installed on different ships.The tracker on the shore is pulling it, and it is not heavy.

After the wine and meat were used up, the boats on the river were ready.Xu Wen inspected it carefully, and said to He Ning: "You escort the boat at the back, and I will lead the troops to open the way in front. Although there is no Song Dynasty army on this road, there should still be a small army."

He Ning crossed her hands and sang loudly.I knew in my heart that the road ahead was not easy.To some extent, it is no less than the battle tonight.
