Chapter 18 Dujiang (1)
Chapter 118: Dujiang (Part 1)
The sky was dark and the moon didn't even come out, but the stars were vaguely shining in the night sky.
There were constant patrols near the county government, and their expressions were tense.
In the past few days, there have been vague rumors in some nearby places, which has made some officials very worried. In recent days, the county magistrate has directly commanded the constable and the wing soldiers to cooperate with the defenders, and dared not relax at all.
Even late at night, people took turns to patrol the city. The weather in December was very cold. No matter how warm the ordinary soldiers were, the cold wind would thrust into the flesh when the light wind blew.
However, there was an order from the superiors to strengthen their vigilance. The constable and the soldiers dared not disobeyed, so they could only shrank their heads and kept moving, moving their bodies so that they could warm themselves up.
At this moment, there was a sudden shout of killing in the camp in the distance, and there was a fire.
This immediately shocked the constable and the soldiers.
"What's going on!" said an insanely: "No, we can't watch, we must report to the lord immediately."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a "boom" sound in the distance, followed by a louder killing sound.
"Either there is an enemy, or the camp is bombed." An experienced wingman firefighting jumped up and shouted: "Go and notify the county magistrate!"
With this sentence, a constable no longer hesitated and immediately rushed out and headed towards the county government.
At this moment, Luo Fu, who had cleared the camp, felt that he should deal with some important figures himself, such as the county magistrate of this county.
At this time, following him, there were no more than dozens of people, but six hundred people. Luo Fu also found a war horse, rode on the horse, looked at the road ahead with a relaxed expression, and found the feeling of being a general of the guard.
The plan went very smoothly. I thought I had been demoted and my old subordinates might not have controlled Ruyi. Maybe there would be another hard battle. But I didn't expect that Li Taihe was indeed a mediocre person, so he was killed by himself. The entire ward was controlled by himself, and there were six hundred people in his hands!
There are still five or six hundred soldiers in the hands of the county magistrate. If he kills him, he will have the whole city and command a thousand soldiers.
This capital is in hand and surrenders to the King of Chu in advance, which will surely receive greater rewards.
Thinking of the county magistrate, Luo Fu smiled grimly. The county magistrate had some connection with the death of the former general He, so it was natural to kill him.
In the county government, a torch was lit. The awakened county magistrate looked at the heavy night outside and said to the troupe behind him: "What do you think this is going on? Are you camping or are there enemy troops?"
The troop looked at the county magistrate who was so scared that his face was pale and forced to be calm, and said with a wry smile: "I hope it's a bombing camp, it's better. If the enemy attacks or rebels..."
At this moment, there were already sounds of killing coming from nearby, and someone shouted: "Attack, the enemy attacked."
The head of the group smiled bitterly and stopped talking. He pulled out the knife and said again: "Sir, please wait, I will resist in front of you."
The cold sword was pulled out, and the cold light shone. When the county magistrate saw it, he immediately felt a chilling cold all over his body. His face suddenly turned pale like paper. He stammered his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak for a while.
At this time, the door opened, and another consignee rushed in and said in an incredible voice: "Sir, it's a rebellion, it's the Luo Fu, he rebelled, he killed General Li, controlled all the guards, and now he's here to kill him."
The county magistrate immediately stood still like lightning strikes.
After Wei Yue ascended the throne, he cleaned up the entire army. The county magistrate actively cooperated and invited General He to drink. He was killed after the banquet, and Li Taihe seized the military power.
Luo Fu was also taken down. Because Wei Yue was afraid that the influence was too great, he stipulated that the Wei generals would not be killed and demoted first, and then cleared it up after it was stable. Luo Fu was not dead at that time, but was demoted.
Now the county magistrate still remembers the scene of the soldiers being taken down and beheaded one by one in the court. Now Luo Fu is back - what should I do?
Just in fear, I saw that the soldiers and the constable were not fighters. After a moment of killing, the gate of the yamen opened with a "boom".
"Get into the city!"
Luo Fu shouted loudly and took the lead in rushing over, and the soldiers behind him rushed in.
The county yamen was in chaos at this time, but several soldiers and constables fought back under the leadership of several teams.
"shoot!"
There was a constant "puff" sound, and a rain of arrows fell. The dozens of people who were resisting immediately turned into hedgehogs. An old detective stood up for a moment and a arrow penetrated his chest without mercy. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but couldn't say it. With a bang, he fell to the ground.
"Kill, kill all the people in this county government, leaving no one." Luo Fu's eyes were filled with blood and he shouted.
The scene in front of him reminded him of General He and his personal soldiers, who were beheaded one by one in the courtyard. This time, even if he could fight back, he would not be able to kill the whole family!
Under this order, the soldier immediately roared and rushed in. The screams of the woman and the screams of the man filled the entire county government.
"Sir, I've caught it." Not long after, a embarrassed county magistrate had been taken up. At this time, his official hat was gone and his official uniform was broken.
"Mr. County Magistrate, it's been a long time since I was gone!" Luo Fu laughed to the sky, pulled out his long sword, and stepped forward.
"You thief, you must die a good death!" Hearing the crying behind, the county magistrate knew he was lucky and cursed.
"Haha, you surrendered to the rebel Wei Yue and said I was a thief." Luo Fu stopped laughing, lowered his head gloomy and said, "Your mansion is just interest. When the King of Chu comes in, I will turn all your clan into a thief. If I don't kill your nine clans, I will feel unhappy!"
"You can't do this, no, you thief..." After hearing this, the county magistrate almost dripped from his eyes and struggled.
Luo Fu laughed at the sky again, and suddenly the laughter stopped and the sword light flashed.
A head flew out, cursing vaguely, rolled on the ground, rolling six or seven meters away, while the headless corpse was still struggling desperately, blood spurting out like a fountain.
Jishui County. Navy camp
News of surrender continued to be sent to the Wang Hongyi case, which made Wang Hongyi very happy.
The time is ripe, and the in-person who can convince has been persuaded.
Wang Hongyi stood on the platform with a cold wind. On both sides were the army strategists led by Zhang Youzhi, the first Navy Fleet headed by Lu Suhai, and the second Navy Fleet headed by Zheng Pingyuan, each standing on both sides according to his official positions and camps.
Wang Hongyi was wearing armor and a battle robe inside. He glanced at everyone and finally spoke.
"The time is now. I will take the order of the Lord and immediately set off and wipe out the Wei thieves in one fell swoop!" With his order, everyone present bowed down.
"I will obey the order!"
"I will obey the order!" Everyone present replied loudly.
Looking at the expressions on their faces, they were all looking forward to the arrival of this battle, and they were all ready to go.
Among them, the generals of the Second Navy Fleet headed by Zheng Pingyuan seemed particularly urgent.
Zheng Pingyuan had just been surrendered to the King of Chu's tent and had not made any achievements. Since he had chosen to take this path, he had to continue and not let himself fall into a more embarrassing situation!
This is his idea.
It can be said that this battle against Wu was the second fleet that integrated into the State of Chu. Whether it could be fought well and whether it could be harmonious with this group depends on this battle.
Zheng Pingyuan felt like this, and his old subordinates were the same. They all wanted to make more contributions in the new dynasty, to make a future for the future and earn more love in front of the monarch.
Although others are not as complicated as Zheng Pingyuan, they are also very excited.
Only by making military achievements can one be granted a wife and son. This is something that everyone knows. As Wang Hongyi's foundation gradually stabilized, the hearts of everyone under his tent also began to grow. From the beginning, he only wanted to win a wealthy life, but now he wanted to be granted a title for the future, and to be a general and a prime minister!
With the power of the Chu army, it may not be impossible!
Wang Hongyi's eyes swept over, and the luck of these people was boiling. He obviously understood their thoughts, but this was exactly the effect he wanted. If he was not strong, how could he win?
Only with this momentum can one be as powerful as a bamboo shoot and attack the yellow dragon in one go!
Looking at the generals below, Wang Hongyi spoke again and issued an order to formally advance.
At this early morning, before dawn, I saw a mist on the river surface, and December was already cold. At this time, the sun had not yet risen. In the places close to the water, you could feel the cold wind blowing towards you, like cutting flesh with a knife.
Under the cover of the fog, the Chu army's 100,000 troops had begun to cross the river.
I saw flags waving on the river, and ships were continuous for several miles, almost covering the river.
Wang Hongyi Ning looked at the magnificent scroll and suddenly remembered the sentence "Millions of troops cross the river". Although he crossed the river at this time, he was only 100,000 troops, which was still a little far from a million, but this magnificent scene was so similar.
Wang Hongyi stared at the sky and the water shadows, and thousands of ships were flying together. At this time, the wind of the river blew the clothes, and the cold was biting, but he didn't realize where his heart was and what he was.
Looking from a high altitude, it represents the pillar of dragon energy, rolling upwards and rushing towards the sky, but it is extremely prosperous for a while.
"Human hearts are the most snobbish, and God's will is the most unpredictable." Wang Hongyi suddenly thought of this sentence and smiled for a long time and woke up.
At this moment, Zhang Youzhi bowed and said, "King, there are 100,000 troops across the river and a large number of internal supporters. You can listen to the good news within a few days. The King is cold in winter and the river wind is even more permeable. Don't stay for a long time. Please ask the King to return."
Wang Hongyi was silent for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Well, that's right, by the way, how was Du Gongzhen's situation going along the way?"
"King, according to your will, he has led the Jiaozhou Legion yesterday and rushed towards Jian'an." Zhang Youzhi bowed and replied.
Wang Hongyi smiled and said, "In this situation, maybe he doesn't need to be there, and Jinling will be gone."
Smiling, Wang Hongyi curled his smile again: "Pay attention to the situation."
