Invincible son

Chapter 1230 1231 [Hanging Cloud Sails Directly to the Sea] ([-])

In the vast offshore waters of the raging sea, a fast boat quickly approached the huge fleet that was winding south by the wind.

After a while, two low-ranking generals on the clipper boarded the coach's boat in the middle of the fleet, and then met Pei Yue under the guidance of his own soldiers.

"Reporting to the Lord, the three guards of Yaoshan have arrived in Sizhou, and the two guards of Qi Nian have been replaced. The latter are returning to the rear of Puqi City for rest. Now the two generals Gu and Lu are following the order of the Lord. , to coordinate the Changping Army and the Yaoshan Army to counterattack the Zhou Army. According to the judgment of the two generals, the Zhou Army in the south of Sizhou is very strong. Now our army is approaching the two prefectures of Chaling and Pingwu, and we are in the stage of cleaning up the outer garrisons in advance. .”

Pei Yue closed his eyes slightly, and said calmly, "Continue."

The general on the left bowed his head and said: "My lord, Admiral Chen of the Qinzhou Navy has reported that the Southern Zhou Linjiang camp has a tight defense line, and has deployed heavy troops at three ferry crossings along the river. It is not appropriate for our army to rush south. The Southern Zhou Navy is currently at a standstill. At Mengjindu, more than a hundred li to the east of Jiangling City, the enemy army should not dare to go down the river for a short time because they are afraid of the illusion of mines we have deployed."

Pei Yue opened his eyes and looked at the map of the southern territory hanging on one side.

Sure enough, Xian Chunqiu did not withdraw the troops in Sizhou, and at the same time asked the navy to push the defense line to Mengjindu, so it was difficult for Daliang to open a breakthrough in the middle and upper reaches of the Tiancang River.If you want to counterattack the Southern Zhou Dynasty, it is obvious that you must advance from the downstream.

In fact, I'm afraid even Fang Xiexiao didn't realize that the military deployment in the Southern Zhou Dynasty showed a situation where the west was strong and the east was weak. possible.

It seems that the Marquis of Rejecting the North was not satisfied with the result of Fang Yuntian burying [-] elite soldiers, but also calculated that Pei Yue and Fang Xiexiao would fight downstream and lose both.

Pei Yue sneered, turned to look at the two generals and said, "How are the two cities of Hanyang and Jiangling?"

The general replied: "General Hou Cai of Baoding reported that after our army won two big victories, Fang Xiexiao voluntarily withdrew his troops for a few miles. At present, he is only maintaining the threat to Jiangling City to prevent our army from going out of the city to fight. Hanyang On the other side of the city, Xian Chunqiu had stopped the offensive a few days ago, although it is now making a comeback, the offensive is not violent, there is some thunder and rain."

Pei Yue waved his hand to signal the two to back down. After pondering for a while, he asked Qin Xian who was sitting at the bottom: "What do you think, brother?"

Qin Xian said respectfully: "Grandpa, Xian Chunqiu is just luring wolves into the house, and then driving them away."

A sneer appeared on Pei Yue's face: "This is his only chance."

The rest of the generals nodded their heads one after another. Only Hu Dayou, commander of the Qinzhou Navy Pingbowei who was in charge of leading a group of warships to protect the fleet, looked at a bewildered face. Relying on Pei Yue's gentle treatment to him, he summoned up his courage and asked, "" Lord, what is the plan of this traitor, Xian Chunqiu?"

Pei Yue smiled and said nothing, and Qin Xian explained: "If there are only two people in the Southern Zhou Dynasty who will never surrender, they are Emperor Qingyuan and Xian Chunqiu. The reasons for the former need not be repeated. Xian Chunqiu surrendered because of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. The court will inevitably confiscate his family and exterminate his family. Even if you don’t mention the defection more than 30 years ago, his hands will be stained with the blood of countless Daliang people, so he will definitely not fall to our court.”

Hu Dayu asked puzzledly, "What do you mean by driving away tigers and devouring wolves?"

Qin Xian smiled and said: "Xian Chunqiu is a surrendered general after all. It took him 30 years to gain a foothold in the Southern Dynasty army, but he still couldn't dominate his family because there was still the Pingjiang Fang family standing in front of him. This national war So far, Xian Chunqiu has always left himself a retreat, and now he has made the Eastern Front a must for our army. Failure to win the Linjiang camp means that the war will fall into a stalemate, and our army's main force will not be able to compete with the South Bank. The army converged. But if we want to break through the downstream defense line, our army and Fang Xiexiao's direct line must have a deadly battle."

Hu Dayou thought for a while, and said with shame: "Thank you, General Qin, for clarifying the confusion, but there is still one thing I don't know. Xian Chunqiu believes in Fang Xiexiao's strength so much? If it is not that both sides suffer in the end, but our army defeats the Fang family's lineage, the front line After being defeated for thousands of miles, our army followed the trend and went south, how can Xian Chunqiu go against the sky?"

Pei Yue took over the topic and said: "For him, this is an adventure that must be tried. He has no choice. It is best for the main force of our army and Fang Xiexiao's direct line to lose. Even if this is not the result, our army must pay. A considerable price. If Western Wu wins, our army can only retreat. At that time, he will be able to control the military alone, and then use a powerful navy to rule the river."

Hu Dayou was stunned, with a feeling of coolness in his heart, he murmured: "The Fang family is in decline, and Xian Chunqiu has no one to control, so wouldn't he be able to control the entire Southern Zhou court?"

Pei Yue and Qin Xian looked at each other, then said with a smile: "He planned it like this from the beginning. Although there are many uncertain risks in the specific process, this is the only chance for him to change his fate against the sky."

Hu Dayou asked again: "Grandpa, since you know Xian Chunqiu's plan, why did you make a surprise attack on Pingjiang Town?"

A past event flashed in Pei Yue's mind.

In the distant city of Xing'an Prefecture in Yunzhou, he and Chen Xizhi had the only and last long conversation. She told about her mother's relationship with the Southern Zhou royal family, and she also personally promised to match Pei Yue and Fang Xiexiao.But she was not Chen Qingchen, and the other party, Xie Xiao, obviously did not have that much influence, and Fang Xiexiao's decision later proved that he would not easily fall for Pei Yue.

The past is over.

Pei Yue sighed inexplicably, and then said: "Fang Xiexiao can be called a loyal minister of the Southern Dynasty, and he doesn't have many unspeakable difficulties like Xu Huiyan. He still has a bit of loyalty in his heart. If you want to subdue such a person, The two brothers Fang Yuntian and Fang Yunji are not enough, and the more than 1 soldiers are not enough, only adding the entire Pingjiang Town and the foundation of the Fang family for decades can make him change course."

Speaking of this, his eyes sharpened suddenly, and he said in a deep voice, "Qin Xian, Tang Linfen."

The two immediately stood up and responded, "The end is here!"

Pei Yue said: "Wudingwei and Tai'anwei have always had strict military discipline, but I still want to remind you that it is very easy to take down Pingjiang Town. After all, the Southern Zhou army is deployed on the northern border, and the interior is extremely empty. But after you lead the troops into the city , do not bully and kill the people of Pingjiang at will, and those who disobey the order will be executed immediately!"

The two responded solemnly: "The last general takes orders!"

Qin Xian asked again: "Grandpa, after Pingjiang falls, Southern Zhou will inevitably react. How should our army respond then?"

Pei Yue smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Whether Fang Xiexiao personally led the rescue, or transferred the Linjiang camp to the south, or Emperor Qingyuan sent his forbidden army under the box to Jian'an City, I am very happy to see it." situation."

All the generals were excited when they heard the words.

……

The first year of Daliang civilization, April [-]th.

Qin Xian personally led the Wuding Guard, and Tang Linfen led the Tai'an Guard. More than [-] elite soldiers landed in the territory of Bozhou in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and drove for more than [-] miles in the starry night. town!

April [-], afternoon.

Pei Yue entered Pingjiang Town surrounded by tens of thousands of sharp soldiers, and boarded the Wanghai Tower built by the ancestors of the Fang family.

The wind comes from the sea, blowing full of spring sunshine.

The news of Pingjiang's fall spread rapidly in all directions, and all Zhou people who heard about it were shocked and panicked.

For the first time in decades, the footsteps of Daliang soldiers set foot on the long-lost homeland.

The whole country was shaken in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, and people were panicked!
