Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 575 Chapter 579 - Dui Zi
Xiao Feiyu's words were like throwing a stone into the water, hitting the slave's heart hard.

Holding Wanyanjin in his arms, Nu looked at Xiao Feiyu with wide eyes and trembling lips: "Your Highness... you?"

Xiao Feiyu tilted his head and smiled, as if he was relieved: "Yes, I never thought that I could defeat or even kill Zhao Kang in this battle. Duizi fights for the first place. I just want both sides to suffer."

Use this million-strong army of the Jin Kingdom to defeat all the troops of the Qian Kingdom and the Jing Kingdom.

The slave's voice trembled: "Your Majesty, why is this happening! You still have us, so what if we lose again this time, we can still find another way out and make a comeback!"

Xiao Feiyu's eyes became calmer, and it seemed that after He Nu revealed his true thoughts, he really had nothing more to ask for.

He sat behind the handsome desk, crossed his hands and supported his chin, his mind seemed to have drifted far away, and his voice was hollow.

"Zhao Kang is a very creative person. Compared with our use of gunpowder to blow up the city gates on this battlefield, the two weapons used by Qian Guo and Jing Guo were too advanced and advanced."

"You never know what weird things he will come up with as time goes on. The longer the time goes on, the slimmer the hope for revenge becomes for me."

After laughing, Xiao Feiyu looked at Nu: "I once remembered what he said, people have infinite creativity, the spread of ideas is the most important, time will smooth out all technical gaps. So now I am the only one Opportunity."

The slave lowered his head, his expression became extremely depressed, and said softly: "Please forgive me for not obeying my order."

Xiao Feiyu shook his head, pointed at the fainted Wanyan Jin, and said seriously: "If I still can't get what I want this time, then she may have a chance to avenge me in the future."

After a long time.

The slave escorted the unconscious Wanyanjin out of the camp, and Xiao Feiyu called the messenger in the military tent.

"Notify all armies and generals that there is no need to save troops, but to destroy all enemies at all costs."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Feiyu leisurely brewed a pot of tea and quietly waited for the moment when the result was known.

……

The enemy's attacks became more and more frenzied, and the offensive was as compact as a tide. From day to night, it seemed as if they were not tired at all.

Zhao Kang, who was in the middle of the army and was constantly giving orders, seemed to have forgotten the passage of time at this moment.

The crazier the enemy army became, the more cautious he became, minimizing his own damage as much as possible, even going so far as to remember the location and movements of every centurion.

This shocked the ten military commanders who had followed the army all their lives and had never seen such a commander before!

The uninterrupted attack lasted for three full days, and Zhao Kang stood like this without sleep for three days.

"Shuai Zhao, take a rest!"

One of the bookkeepers couldn't stand it anymore and quickly comforted him, saying that if this continues, even an iron man will collapse. If the coach collapses, it will be the end.

Zhao Kang stared at the sand table intently and just said: "Why is there no battle report coming from Beishan?"

The chief clerk behind him quickly checked the military orders sent and said quickly: "The Beishan garrison has repelled seven enemy attacks. At this time, it has been replaced by Modao Colonel Huang Tianxing to lead his troops to fight against the enemy."

"Brother Diao?"

Zhao Kang thought thoughtfully. If he were to guard Beishan, he wouldn't have to worry too much.

Not to mention one-on-one, even one-on-two, those barbarians from the Jin Kingdom would not be the opponents of Mo Daozu.

Until now, Zhao Kang has a clear understanding of the situation on the battlefields in various places and is not too worried.

There were only two urgent things in his mind: where was Sun Fang, and the situation behind Yanzhou's merger with the state.

Perhaps he was thinking about it day by day and dreaming about it at night. As soon as he had the idea, a messenger rushed into the tent.

The messenger eagerly sent a message about the battle: "Commander Zhao, Hua Jingcheng is here to report!"

"Bring it over!" Zhao Kang's face darkened, and he already had a premonition of something in his heart.

After looking through the battle report, it turned out to be the news that I least expected to see.

"What's wrong with Marshal Zhao?" a bookkeeper asked.

Zhao Kang closed his eyes, knowing that this matter could not be hidden: "22 Zhou and Qi coalition forces attacked Huajing City from the direction of Jizhou."

"This!"

The ten bookkeepers were shocked.

Nowadays, in the imperial capital of Huajing, there are only 22 Qinglong troops led by Qian Guo Li Long, and there are [-] enemy troops. How can they withstand this seven-fold difference in numbers?
"Want to return support?" a bookkeeper said subconsciously.

Then he shut up. At this time, if the return reinforcements were equivalent to a frontal battlefield, they would have been defeated.

If the army is defeated by then, let alone returning reinforcements, the whole army may be completely destroyed. If not, it will really be over!
"Shuai Zhao?"

Seeing that Zhao Kang was silent, a bookkeeper called out.

Zhao Kang looked at the back of Cangshan Mountain on the sand table, where Xiao Feiyu was stationed.

He understood that this was a problem Xiao Feiyu had given him, and he wanted to exchange his money with him!Should we continue to fight with him here, or go back to rescue Huajing City.

If we die here, even if we wipe out Xiao Feiyu, I am afraid that Huajing City will not be able to hold on and will be flattened by the armies of Zhou and Qi.

Then when the time comes, Jingguo will be no different than being destroyed, and he will have to turn around and attack Zhou and Qi.

But if we give up the frontal battlefield at this time, we will be under even greater pressure.

We have to face Xiao Feiyu, Zhou State and Qi State at the same time.

"Do you really not care about the damage at all?" Zhao Kang suddenly asked.

Everyone present was a little confused, and Zhao Kang was not asking them.

Just when Zhao Kang was about to make a decision, another messenger came outside the door: "Report! Someone is coming from the imperial capital!"

"A visitor from the Imperial Capital?"

Zhao Kang was stunned, who would come at this time?It can't be Wu Guanhai, right?

A burly figure walked into the tent, and Zhao Kang was slightly surprised to see him.

He recognized this man, one of the two worshipers of the Wu family royal family, a top expert from the lower third rank.

He once went to Qian Country with Wu Rulong to help him deal with Xiao Feiyu.

"senior?"

After the other party walked in, facing Zhao Kang's greeting, he actually said: "Prince Yizhi, please accept King Zhao."

Zhao Kang was shocked: "What are the prince's instructions?"

The worshiper said in a deep voice: "The prince has a decree. King Zhao does not need to return for reinforcements and concentrates on the frontal battlefield. General Zhang Zheng of Qian Kingdom has arrived at Huajing City with [-] troops."

"The officials and people of Huajing City are determined to fight the enemy with all their strength, and they will have no regrets even if the city is destroyed!"

Zhao Kang clenched his fist: "Zhao Kang accepts the order!"

"Please, Marshal Zhao! I have to rush back to the imperial capital!" Xianfeng hugged his fist heavily.

Wu Guanhai obviously also knew that when the news of the Zhou-Qi alliance reached Zhao Kang's ears, it would inevitably put Zhao Kang in trouble.

The last time Huajing City was besieged, Zhao Kang went there, but at that time Xu Ning was still holding Xiao Feiyu in front.

But this time, there was absolutely no chance of returning aid. Knowing this, Wu Guanhai gave Zhao Kang enough confidence at this moment.

The Imperial Preceptor is only responsible for attacking and killing, and they will block the rest!

The imperial edict sent by the worshiper made the decision for Zhao Kang.

He immediately called the messenger: "Inform Li Yuanhao, Huang Tianxing, Zhou Long, and the artillery troops stationed in these three places to advance the artillery positions and use the most violent artillery fire to push back the enemy's offensive!"

"As ordered!"

A bookkeeper came up and said, "Shuai Zhao, is this going to be a bit risky? If you want to push the enemy back with the cannon, you will have to fire continuously for a long time. In that case, the cannon may not be able to withstand it." There are thirty guns on the ground now. The cannons, except for the six that were recently supported by Qian Guo, the others were the first and second batches of cannons cast.

Since such a long time of fighting, the loss of the gun barrel has been considerable, and it is no problem to use it intermittently.

But if it is fired continuously for a long time, it is easy to be scrapped.

There was no way, since he had this thing, Zhao Kang had dragged them to conquer the north and south without any disadvantage, which invisibly caused a lot of wear and tear on these cannons.

Zhao Kang said softly: "I understand your worries, but now at least one hundred thousand enemy troops have crossed Cangshan Mountain, and we must push them back!"

Several army chiefs were puzzled. Even if they were pushed back, what could be done?
They will still rush over after a period of rest.

Zhao Kang didn't explain too much. He looked at the darkening sky outside and murmured: "It should be almost done, right? We should have arrived after more than a month of marching."

Fenyang.

Located in the westernmost part of Xuzhou, it was a magnificent landscape in Xuzhou in the early years.

Because there is Fenyang River running through Xuzhou.

The river even connected to the boundary of Bingzhou, eight hundred miles away from Fenyang, and the sky and water connected each other, supporting Xu Bing.

What this means is that the Fenyang River, which is eight hundred miles long, feeds the people of Xuzhou and Bingzhou.

In the early years, the Fenyang River's rapid flow would cause floods in the two places during the rainy season, causing the people of Xuzhou and Bingzhou to suffer misery.

Later, Jingguo spent countless manpower and material resources to build the Fenyang embankment, which made Fenyang water the mother that nourished the people of the two places.

When the Jin barbarians invaded Guzhou and Xuzhou, the people in the two places fled to Bingzhou, where the imperial capital was located.

Today in Xuzhou, except for the corpses of Jingguo people who were killed, it is basically difficult to see Jingguo people.

Now the barbarian armies everywhere are being restrained by Zhao Kang's army, and no one is stationed in Fenyang.

However, a large number of people showed up today.

The scouts who were scouting the road ahead rushed back: "General Sun, no enemy troops have been found stationed in the areas surrounding Fenyang."

Sun Fang's eyes showed a little tiredness. Hearing the scout's words, he nodded: "Send the order and the whole army marches to Fenyang Embankment!"

After the military order was issued, Sun Fang took out the blueprint given by Zhao Kang before leaving and looked at the route marked on the blueprint.

Sun Fang's tired look disappeared, and she was even a little excited, because!

As long as I can complete the tasks assigned by the Imperial Master, I will lead the Fenyang River water out according to the route on the drawing!

Then he, Sun Fang, will be the biggest contributor to this battle!

This war will ultimately be decided by him, Sun Fang!
"National Division!"

Holding the drawing tightly, Sun Fang turned around and took a look: "The final general will live up to his trust!"

A blast of thunder sounded in the sky.

Immediately after the raindrops fell, Sun Fang immediately called someone to check the gunpowder and grenades.

The subordinate assured: "General, don't worry, all the gunpowder is sealed with oil paper and will not get damp!"

"That's good."

Sun Fang nodded and reached out to catch the raindrops. She calculated that it was already the end of August.

It will be autumn in a while, and it will be the last wave of rainy season.

"Now Lian Tianshi is with us. The fight has been going on for almost a year, and it can indeed be over!"

Turning around, Sun Fang once again urged the team to march quickly.

at the same time.

The Zhou Qi army, which had easily defeated Jizhou and Yanzhou, once again approached the city.

Not long after they evacuated, Jizhou and Yanzhou fell again before they could even begin to rebuild their homes.

Long Han and Wu Xiong looked at Huajing City in the distance, the imperial capital of Jingguo.

This time they directly set up the Chinese army camp at such a close distance, which was enough to express their determination.

Long Han took the lead in ordering the attack on the city, while Wu Xiong did not issue any military orders.

When Yandu came, he ordered that Huajing City must be conquered. It was not known what agreement the man named Xiao had reached with the new emperor.

It would make such a new king do whatever it takes.

Wu Xiong didn't think much about it. Since the superiors gave the death order, he just followed it.

Now, at this moment, he does not seek merit but seeks failure.

In Huajing City, Jingguo really does not have any troops at the moment. It is a bit funny to be responsible for guarding the Jingguo imperial capital.

It turned out to be two generals from the Qian Kingdom.

Zhang Zheng, the governor of Tongzhou, and Li Long, the commander of the Qinglong Army.

Three cannons were mounted. Not only did the Artillery Corps use this thing now, but Zhang Zheng had also studied it thoroughly. It allowed people to shoot at crowded places.

Fortunately, although the current Zhou and Qi states have obtained the gunpowder formula, they have not yet thoroughly studied it and produced it in large quantities.

Otherwise, it really wouldn't take much effort to break through Huajing City.

Looking at the enemy troops charging fearlessly, Zhang Zheng grinned: "I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to fight in the capital of Jingguo in this life."

Li Long on the side rolled his eyes. He had been here for more than two months and asked with a smile: "Master Zhang, for domestic support, you only left these three cannons and [-] rounds of artillery shells?"

"It would be difficult to defend this city with just these."

The three cannons may not be able to fire [-] rounds and will be scrapped. It is indeed not easy to defend Huajing without these cannons.

Zhang Zhenghe said: "How can that be possible? There are still five thousand grenades."

Li Long scratched his head: "This is not enough."

Zhang Zheng smiled, looked into the distance, and said in a voice that he could only hear: "Of course I don't know enough, but the battlefield ahead is the most important thing. Besides, there are still 6 people."

Now that we are here, who thinks we can go back alive?

Qingzhou, Qian Country.

Compared with the devastation of life in Jingguo, although various places in Qianguo have also issued warnings and implemented curfews.

But the people are still very optimistic. After all, they haven't been hit yet, right?

The old place of the Wu family.

Her Majesty the Empress Xiao Linglong was not idle either. She was discussing with the Qingzhou disaster relief ministers how to dig out some food to send to the front line.

After discussing until midnight, we finally came up with an accurate plan. Everyone dispersed, and Xiao Linglong rubbed her brows, feeling a little tired.

Qin Yufeng arrived with a cup of refreshing soup, and felt a little distressed when she saw this scene: "Don't work too hard, you haven't rested for two days."

Her Majesty the Empress smiled and said helplessly: "How can we not work hard? If he is fighting in the front, there will naturally be no more troubles in the rear. If Lin Yu hadn't been hindered by those guys who deserved to die thousands of times, how could he have been killed? Forced to go to Jingguo?"

"So you were bitten by a snake once and have been afraid of well ropes for ten years?" Qin Yufeng smiled, a little helpless, and there was nothing she could do to help.

Xiao Linglong put down the soup bowl, her eyes full of longing: "So, no matter what, I won't let him happen again! He will definitely win this battle!"

"I will definitely do it!" Qin Yufeng nodded, both of them had great confidence in Zhao Kang.
