Great Sui Dynasty

"My lord, Yu Wenhuaji has been huddled in the city and refused to come out. There is nothing I can do for my subordinates." Cheng Yaojin had a helpless expression. It has been two days since they fought against Yuwen Chengji. The two joined forces to fight Yuwen Chengji. The battle was a draw, and then Cheng Yaojin shamelessly sent an army to cover up the killing. Yuwen Chengji could only hide in the city again, and refused to come out no matter how much he scolded.

"Okay, I've worked hard on you for the past two days. Go back and rest first. There won't be any wars for the next few days. I'll ask Yu Wenhua to come and beg me not to fight! Go back and digest it with Yu Wen. The harvest from Chengji's fight may be even higher!" He knew about Cheng Yaojin's fight with Su Dingfang and Yuwen Chengji on the same day, and he didn't ask Cheng Yaojin to comprehend it right away, after all, Cheng Yaojin He was not at the same level as Yuwen Chengdu. He was afraid that Cheng Yaojin would not be able to accept it for a while or that there would be shadows in his heart, so he asked Cheng Yaojin to continue to fight in the city. Maybe he could do better after he calmed down after scolding. comprehend.

"Yes!" After that battle, Cheng Yaojin knew the gap between himself and the top generals, and he was eager to improve himself.

There is also a reason for Yang Hao's arrangement. After a few days of shouting, people have already gotten used to it, and it will not have any effect. Now that they stop shouting all of a sudden, they will definitely feel strange and will definitely be indiscriminate. Guess what, this will not let them relax for a moment, and keep them in tension all the time.

Just in the morning, Yang Hao received a message from Xu Shiji, saying that he had led the navy to reach the mouth of the Yangtze River, because if he wanted to break into the inland river, he would definitely be blocked by the water transport envoys, so there would be no surprise effect.So he decided to wait until nightfall before entering the inland river. Because he was not familiar with the route and did not dare to sail too close to the shore, he wasted some time at sea, so he had to hurry up now.

Jiangducheng

"My lord, this old slave has heard clearly. The army has been mobilized frequently in the city these days, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the city, even within a hundred steps of the city gate. There seems to be a situation outside the city; Some of the ministers who were dissatisfied with Yu Wenhua and his actions were arrested by Yu Wenhua, some were forced to join Yu Wenhua, and some people who did not want to be with him had already been killed. People were basically killed, but King Qin Xiao was not killed! There is still no movement in His Majesty's palace, and no one is allowed to approach, but according to people nearby, one night they heard shouts of killing near the palace, but That night there were shouts of killing everywhere in the city, and they were not sure if it came from the direction of the palace." A man who looked like a butler in Pei Ju's mansion reported the situation to Pei Ju.

"Oh? Unexpectedly, Yu Wenhuaji is still determined to go his own way, and he actually kills the clan. It seems that he can't wait any longer." Pei Ju heard that the clan who followed Yang Guang to Jiangdu was basically slaughtered, and he felt a little unbearable. The practice has lost popularity.

"It seems that His Majesty has been put under house arrest by Yu Wenhua. The frequent mobilization of the army may be in preparation for the abolition of the Emperor. Once he wants to usurp the throne, there must be people who are not afraid of death jumping out to stop him and use the army to suppress it. Of course. , or it may really be that there is a situation outside the city. Contact other ministers and don't act rashly, don't get involved in right and wrong before the situation is completely clear, and do everything possible to find out the real intention of Yu Wenhua and mobilize the army!" Pei Ju told the man Said.

Outside the estuary of the Yangtze River, a fleet is moored quietly at sea without any signs, and the occasional one or two people on the deck indicate that this fleet is not a ghost fleet.

"My lord, a message from Feihong." A general in the captain's room sent a message to Xu Shiji.

"Okay! Tell all the soldiers to make meals, then take a good rest, and enter the river after nightfall! Also, pay attention to whether there are any merchant ships passing by, and stop them all, and let them go after nightfall!" Xu Shiji looked at the note in his hand. There is only one sentence, "After nightfall, please rest assured to sail!" Xu Shiji saw this sentence, and the last stone in his heart fell to the ground. He knew the meaning of this sentence. It's fixed, and it can be unimpeded tonight.He has to admire Yang Hao, it is not so easy to deal with the soldiers patrolling such a long section of the river, unless there is an imperial decree, obviously they don't have it, even if there is someone, they may not cooperate, so Yang Hao dares to guarantee unimpeded, How much skill does that take?In the past, Zhai Rang still wanted to fight against Yang Hao, which was really beyond his control.

Now that there is no "police" blocking the river, Xu Shiji is relieved, but now the boats are parked in the coastal waters relatively close to the land. Although people on the land can't find it, but now it is the Sui Dynasty, and there is no strict sea ban, so what kind of fishing boat? , Merchant ships can still pass through the sea. For the sake of safety, once a ship is found, it must be intercepted.

The sky is getting darker. In late autumn, the weather is clearer, the sky is full of stars, and warships are slowly approaching the mouth of the inland river. There is no light on the boats. Under the gloomy starlight, it really looks like Like a ghost ship.In order to prevent the target from being exposed, Xu Shiji ordered that the lamps not be lit, and sent people to set up a bonfire on the shore as a guide early on, so he was not afraid of not being able to find the entrance.

However, after that, as the news said, there was no obstacle, and the water was small in autumn. Although it was going upstream, the speed of the improved ship was not slow, and it drove upstream with full horsepower!

"My lord, it's getting cold at night, let's sleep first." Zhou Han said looking at Yang Hao who was still waiting at his desk.

"Wait a little longer, counting the time, Mao Gong should have arrived, otherwise what this king has done will be in vain." Yang Hao insisted on waiting until Xu Shiji sent someone over, all he did for Xu Shiji's army was to shoot Qianqiu's people Control the river patrol soldiers and generals, so that the entire river will be in a state of no patrol tonight.

Zhou Han knew Yang Hao's stubbornness, and he had to do what he said. Since he followed Yang Hao, he knew what kind of person can be called a wise master.He didn't bother Yang Hao anymore, he just stayed outside and did his job well.

The lights in the tent flickered on and off, just like Yang Hao's heart was not at peace.

"My lord, General Xu has sent someone!" After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Han walked into the tent again, and this time he came with good news.

"Bring it in!" Yang Hao said eagerly.

"This subordinate sees the prince, this is a letter from General Xu to the prince!" The visitor handed Xu Shiji's letter to Yang Hao.

"Okay! Thank you for your hard work. Let's go take a rest first, and I will let you go back to deliver the news later!" Yang Hao patted the man, who was almost moved to tears.

"Okay, it's getting late, go back and tell General Xu, and say that you don't need to be suspicious, you don't need to be suspicious, and everything is up to him!"

"Everything is up to me?!" Xu Shiji murmured and repeated this sentence. He couldn't believe that Yang Hao could trust him so much. If the king ordered the withdrawal of the army, it would have to be carried out, but now it is up to him to decide everything, so the entire army is completely handed over to him, can he not sigh.Of course, Yang Hao also has his reasons for doing this. After all, he is too far away to be restrained, and he doesn't want to repeat Waterloo. Of course, Xu Shiji is not the kind of person who can stage Waterloo, and decentralization is the best choice.

"Raise the flag! Light up the lights! Block the river!" Xu Shiji issued a series of orders. Now that he has come, let the world see the Qingzhou navy and let the world know that Qingzhou is not only invincible in battle, but also one of the best in the navy. of!

The quiet river surface was illuminated by the lights on the sudden fleet!
