The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 633 Red-eyed Zhang Hongfan (for subscription)
"Dare to ask your governor, how confident are you in retaking the Dongting?" When Zhang Shijie asked this sentence, his whole throat kept rolling.

He is a little nervous now, a little looking forward to it, but he is even more afraid of disappointment.

"My lord's order is absolutely foolproof!" Although Han Zhao is a surrendered general, and his status is much lower than other famous generals in Dameng Town, he is very convinced by Mo Xiaobai's order.

From the day he was captured as a water bandit, he watched the lord and the territory grow slowly.One victory after another, as long as Dream City uses force, there will be no defeat, let alone return empty-handed.

This kind of self-confidence is not blind worship, but the pride accumulated by the actual record.As soon as Mo Xiaobai's message arrived, he immediately set sail.

Because Han Zhao had been waiting for the lord's edict for a long time, and was ready to go to battle at any time.

Confidently answered Zhang Shijie's question, Han Zhao also turned around and asked, "I wonder why the general came here on purpose?"

why?
Hearing this question, Zhang Shijie's face flashed with embarrassment: "Brother Zhongye, you also know that the Song court is in a precarious state. I naturally hope that everyone will work together to defend the court."

Defending the imperial court?

That is to ask me to stay?
Han Zhao immediately shook his head: "It's absolutely impossible to stay here. My lord ordered me to go north, so I will follow orders."

"I know, I know." Zhang Shijie nodded immediately, and then gritted his teeth: "So now I want to ask brother Zhongye, can I let this general lead the navy with you to enter Dongting?"

Zhang Shijie would never say such things before.After all, even with Wen Tianxiang's support in Jiangxi, he can't see any hope of reversing the situation.

But now the situation is very different. Yuanmeng's Southern Expedition Army was trapped in Jiangxi, and the two most important water villages in Lin'an were also destroyed. Even the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal will be threatened.

At this time, Yuanmeng had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses all over the country, but they could not gather in the south of the Yangtze River in a short time!

If, if this surprise attack on Dongting is successful, and the soldiers encircle EZ.

In the south of the Yangtze River, what else can Yuanmeng do?
Dongting, EZ, Poyang, and Lin'an, the entire Yangtze River Basin, will it be returned to the Song Dynasty?

Not to be missed!
As a titan who defected from Dajin and came to Dasong, and climbed from the battlefield step by step to the current high position, Zhang Shijie has never lacked courage.As long as you give him so many possibilities and hopes, he can't help but pursue more.

His own destiny has been tied to Song Ting's in this life, even if he used to be an old member of the Zhang family, even if there are many members of the family who took refuge in Yuanmeng, Zhang Shijie knew that he would never go back and defect a second time.

There will be no more betrayal, only death.

But if there is a possibility of immortality, or even a chance for the Jedi to counterattack and become famous through the ages, how can Zhang Shijie not cherish it?
Isn't the defense line that is about to be formed now the layout that Wen Tianxiang stated before attacking Jiangxi?

At the beginning, this layout came to an end because of Chen Yizhong's negation, but now the two governors are working together to make the impossible possible.

Suppressing these thoughts in his heart, Zhang Shijie said: "This general can't transfer the warships used, but at least he can dispatch another [-] navy troops, and use the last [-] elite soldiers to fight for a chance for Song Dynasty."

Zhang Shijie's words made Han Zhao dumbfounded.

What kind of crazy is this general?Why do you suddenly want to go north with him to attack Dongting?
Moreover, the lord did not explain how he should deal with such a situation.

Han Zhao's hesitation was seen by Zhang Shijie, and the rough general immediately became anxious: "Brother Zhongye won't agree? I am quite familiar with Dongting and EZ. If I plan properly, I can at least increase it by another [-] to [-] percent." The odds of winning are definitely not a dispensable burden.”

Because Han Zhao is not his subordinate, and his great general has actually reached the verge of being in name only, Zhang Shijie can't use power to suppress others, he can only see his own value.

Anyway, he once fought a battle in EZ, and it was a rare victory.

Han Zhao pondered for a while, looked at Zhang Shijie's eager eyes, and finally nodded: "Since the general is interested, then quickly dispatch troops, I will communicate with the lord, if the lord knows that the general can send reinforcements, he will do so if he wants to." Very happy."

Seeing Han Zhao's agreement, Zhang Shijie nodded happily: "That's very good, very good. I'll go back and dispatch troops. You should go ahead and find out the news. I'll catch up within half a day."

.........

Mo Xiaobai, who was at Fenshui Pass, didn't know about the changes in the south.

Even if he knew, what Mo Xiaobai was most interested in at this time was still Zhang Hongfan's face outside the pass.

Calculating the time, the news of Jiaxing's attack should have come, right?

Would that old thing want to swallow him alive?

Mo Xiaobai was looking forward to this.

However, the fact is just as Mo Xiaobai imagined. When the defeats of Jiaxing and Huzhou were sent to Zhang Hongfan by a messenger, Zhang Hongfan, who was still excited about recapturing Fenshuiguan, seemed to learn the truth in an instant. Like a Sichuan opera, the whole face became darker than the cloudy sky.

The water village was seized and the canal was blocked.

In just one or two days, more than two hundred ships were lost.

It doesn't look like much, but it is the first fleet prepared for the final attack on Song Dynasty.As for the rest of the warships, it will take at least a month or more to dispatch them separately.

"Bastard!"

"Bastard!"

Zhang Hongfan, who has always liked to show people elegance, was angrily scolded for the first time.He didn't know whether he was scolding Mo Xiaobai for being deceitful, or scolding those generals who surrendered from the water village as idiots.

Because of the change in the battle situation in Jiangxi and the capture of Fenshui Pass, he has already mobilized almost all the troops that Lin'an Mansion could mobilize. At this moment, Lin'an Mansion has no defense force at all except for a few servants and miscellaneous soldiers.

Lin'an was originally the capital of the Song Dynasty, and the local people would never help Yuanmeng defend the city against the Song army.

Lin'an, I'm afraid it's hard to save!
"Are you going to withdraw your troops?"

"No, withdrawing troops now will be a failure. What's more, even if Lin'an is captured, it's impossible to lay down a foundation with just a few thousand naval troops."

Straightening out his confused thoughts one by one, Zhang Hongfan looked fiercely at the southern pass: "Pass our military order, double the number of troops and horses to fight, if you still can't take it in the daytime, when will you take Fenshui Pass and stop!"

Zhang Hongfan had no other choice but to end the battle at Fenshuiguan as soon as possible.

And what he was thinking in his heart was actually what Mo Xiaobai was thinking.

"There is another increase in troops."

After half a stick of incense time passed, Mo Xiaobai and Yangyangyang who stayed in the pass also saw the changes on the battlefield, and said with a mocking smile: "It seems that the old man is in a hurry."

"If he's not in a hurry, I think you should."

Yang Yangyang's eyes swept over Mo Xiaobai, and his expression was not so relaxed: "And with this kind of offensive, it is difficult for me to hold the soldiers and horses in my hands until dark. You don't really intend to use Yuan Meng's hand to consume my family's wealth." drop it."

"How can I, didn't I say that there would be reinforcements?"

"You mean March in Winter? Where is he now?"

"He will come later. As for now, you can shrink your defense a little bit and bring in all the Yuan troops."
