Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 307 Transformation of Warships

After the emergency rescue by the imperial physicians, Murong Juan was finally rescued after more than half an hour.In fact, Murong Juan knew without asking that the material battalion in Fengle City must have suffered heavy losses.At this time, the sky in the east of Yecheng was already glowing red, showing the intensity of the fire.

Murong Juan urgently summoned Da Sima, Taiyuan King Murong Ke, and Sikong Yangdong to the palace to face the saint.However, it doesn't wait for Murong Ke and Yang Wu to return.The two received the imperial decree at home.

Da Sima and Taiyuan Wang Murongke were conferred the title of Governor of Conquering the South by Murong Jun, and led 80 Yan troops to launch an attack.And Sikong Yangyu was appointed as the deputy governor of Zhengnan.Yang Yu, styled Shiqiu, was the son of Yang Dan, from Ji County, Hebei Province.He and Fuguo General Murong Ke and Fubi General Murong Ping are known as the "Three Fus".

Yang Yu was eager to learn since he was a child, and he had extraordinary knowledge. He was appointed as Pingzhou Biejia for the first time, and he contributed many times to the strategy of governing the country, and most of them were adopted.Murongxin thought he was a genius and promoted him to be the governor of Liaodong.In the eighth year of Xianhe in the Northern Wei Dynasty (333 A.D.), Murong Xin died, and his son Murong Hao succeeded him, and appointed Wang Dan as Zuo Changshi.Wang Dan gave Zuo Changshi the seat of Zuo Changshi to him on the grounds that his talent was outstanding.Murong Hao proclaimed himself King of Yan, and appointed Yang Yu as Captain of Sili.Yang Wu helped Murong Hao conquer east and west, and made suggestions.When Murong Hao was dying, he said to his son Murong Jun: "Yang Shiqiu is loyal and talented, but he can entrust important things to you. Treat him well."

Yang Yu lived through the four dynasties of Shi, Yu, Jun, and Wei. He was highly respected, and everyone from Dazai Murong Ke down worshiped him.After receiving Murong Juan's imperial edict, he was full of worries.

He went to visit Taiyuan Wang Murongke overnight.Facing Murong Ke, who is also capable of both civil and military skills, Yang Wu expressed his concerns to Murong Ke: "Prince Taiyuan, we have no way to defeat the southerners!"

"Yes." Murong Ke sighed and said, "Whether it is Qin's defeat of Shu or Jin's defeat of Wu, they first settled Bashu, then entered Jingxiang, and finally went down the river. ...not only Bashu has not been settled, but even Guanzhong has not been taken, if we are stuck with the Southern Jin Dynasty at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that Fu Jian's son will not take advantage of the fire."

Having said that, Murong Ke glanced at Yang Wu, and said calmly: "The Yangtze River is a natural umbrella, so that the glory of China will never be extinguished, and the orthodoxy of Yan and Huang will never be cut off. How generous is Heaven's love for the people of the South!
Faced with Murong Ke's contemptuous gaze, Yang Wu didn't seem to notice it. He smiled disapprovingly and said, "However, we don't have to cross the river to fight, because the emperor on the other side of the Yangtze River is probably watching Jiangbei all the time!"

A sneering smile appeared on the corner of Murong Ke's mouth: "The emperor of the Southern Jin Dynasty didn't have such a high spirit. If we don't beat him, he will be thankful. But the high governor, I'm afraid it's not easy to get along with him."

Yang Wu said: "No way, just relying on Gao Jingzong's kid's mob?"

"The mob?" Murong Ke said, "If the emperor of the Southern Jin Dynasty had such an army of "mobs", I'm afraid we would have retreated to our hometown in Longcheng."

"Could it be that Gao Jingzong's son is really...really... so powerful?" Yang Wu's face slowly became serious, "You mean...His Royal Highness King Wu..."

Before Yang Wu could finish speaking, Murong Ke sighed and said: "The sixth and fifth are all in the hands of Gao Jingzong, do you think such a person is easy to get along with? Yang Sikong is the veteran and important minister of our Dayan, you should too Do you know that the fifth and sixth sons are people who are in vain?"

Yang Wu said: "I'm afraid this battle is not easy to fight!"

"Not only is it not easy to fight, there is no way to fight this battle!" Murong Ke said: "Fu Jian's intentions are unclear. If he dispatches the troops from Hedong to go south, there is no guarantee that Fu Jian's children will not have evil intentions. In the face of Gao Jingzong, the lonely king really has no idea. Judging from his method of using soldiers, Gao Jingzong can be said to have won the true teaching of the strategist's tricks. God knows how he will use his soldiers... The safest way at this time is to wait and see the strange changes However, our Majesty was finally fooled by Gao Jingzong and was angered!"

Yang Wu said: "What does King Taiyuan mean to say that the fire in Fengle Town is also related to Governor Gao?"

"It was an accident, would you believe it?" Murong Ke said: "The former general Yue Wan has always been diligent in the king's affairs and never slacked off. With such a land that pours the country's resources, can it be accidental? This time Gao Jingzong ordered people to burn Fengle City, it's hard to guarantee that he didn't sneak into Ye City carefully, if he does, who knows what kind of trouble will happen."

In fact, Murong Ke really wronged Gao Jingzong. Gao Jingzong had already returned to Suixian County at this time, and he learned that Gao Jingzong had returned safely.The morale of the Beifu army was greatly boosted, and the soldiers and people in the city were full of joy.

When Gao Jingzong returned, he held a military and political meeting of the Beifu Army in Sui County's Beifu Army Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. At this meeting, Gao Jingzong briefly put forward his own political views: "Sometimes the momentum of combat should be subdued by waiting, and sometimes it should be quickly Defeat them. If the opponent and our side are evenly matched, and they have strong backup, considering the difficult situation of being attacked from the front and rear, we must attack quickly and achieve great results quickly. If our enemy is strong and weak, and there is no reinforcement from foreign enemies, our If the strength is enough to win, you should defend and control them, and wait for them to be exhausted. There is a saying in the art of war, which means ten encircles and five attacks. According to the information received by the inner guards, if Yan has assembled an army of 80, it is ready to attack Our Beifu army. The 80 Yan army is estimated to be an imaginary number, but the number of the Yan army should not be less than 50 troops. The enemy is nearly three times our superior force. At this time, if we take a defensive position, then our Beifu army will fall into Passive across the board, our only chance of victory at this time is to attack first and disrupt the attacking rhythm of the Yan army."

When the generals of the Beifu army heard this, they felt that the bad luck accumulated in their hearts for half a year was swept away.

The First Zhonglang General Hu Guang Zhonglang took the lead and said: "Please give the order from the governor, how to fight this battle!"

Gao Jingzong looked at Cui Yi and said: "Cui Changshi, in the name of the Beifu Army's Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, issued the first military order of the whole army. All soldiers in the whole army who are familiar with water and are not seasick or timid should be gathered together, no matter what position they are in." , Immediately rush to Buqicheng to assemble and stand by!"

Although the generals were very puzzled by Gao Jingzong's order at this time, Gao Jingzong was the god of the Beifu army at this time. Everyone had extremely high admiration for Gao Jingzong, and no one dared to question Gao Jingzong's order in person.

"Sigong joins the army!"

Wang Jia, who was as thin as a stick, got up tremblingly, "Humble job!"

"Gather all the craftsmen who will be in charge and supervise all the craftsmen, and rush to Buqi in the shortest time." Gao Jingzong said loudly: "The blueprint will be delivered to your hands later. After arriving in Buqi, immediately follow the requirements of the drawing and use the shortest possible time. , modify the ship."
