Chapter 404 Han Shizhong's reinforcement

Chapter 404 Han Shizhong's reinforcement

After a little calculation, he guessed how much wealth he had left to satisfy the appetite of the other side. Shi Chuan suddenly thought of Han Shizhong. Legend has it that after the fight against Fang La, he immediately became one of the top rich men in the Song Dynasty. His own wealth alone raised tens of thousands of troops. From this, it seems that in fact, Tong Guan didn't care about eating more and taking up more points in the bandit suppression.

"Okay, please leave a little treasure in the treasury, yes, just one quarter of it." Han Shizhong got rich because he captured Fang La's last nest, the Manichaeism holy land, which means that Fang La's last wealth fell in the hands of Han Shizhong. Now, the little wealth of "Director Fang" is like a drop of water in the vast ocean compared to Fang La's robbery. For those who are new to come, use this drop of water to make a good relationship. The important thing is to take the task of the final attack.

Shi Chuan immediately added: "But those useful people should be transferred as much as possible... Also, those religious deadly members have not kept them, and they cannot do anything if their brains are broken. They must also worry about their rebellion at any time. After identification, they will be transported overseas immediately and let them go to the barren mountains and rivers to preach and solve their doubts."

Ling Fei agreed and quickly prepared to run out. Shi Chuan thought about it and called him again: "Don't worry, even though the battle is over, don't be idle. The newly compiled two thousand musketeers were drawn out and found some hopeless believers from the prisoners, so that the new musketeers could practice their skills - to make the snatch sounds until noon tomorrow."

Ling Fei had been with his master for a long time and immediately understood what he meant. He immediately replied: "Yes, yes, I will transfer the new musketeers to the riverside and let them shoot on the riverside so that gunfire can be heard on the other side... Well, some of the prisoners will be taken to the riverside to watch the punishment, so that they can learn some lessons, and be honest in the future."

After the order was issued, the atmosphere in the military camp became solemn. The Haizhou soldiers began to divide into three groups. Zhang Heng occupied the dock area with the tired Batou Navy and began to collect the remaining ships in the water camp. This job was easy and just enough to let the soldiers rest.

Lin Chong was busy rectifying the order in the village and setting up alerts; Ling Fei took Shi Tong's personal guard team, collecting spoils everywhere, while helping Lin Chong suppress the village and rebels. Those slightly unruly thorns were deliberately selected and escorted to the dock area, where the whole team of new musketeers waiting there immediately began to execute the execution... So, after the Haizhou regiment training completed the occupation, the gunfire not only did not calm down, but became increasingly dense.

The brutal massacre immediately spread throughout the camps. Knowing that the Haizhou soldiers were slaughtering, the water camp suddenly became quiet. Apart from the Haizhou soldiers patrolling, the Fang La army did not even have the usual person to walk, and they were afraid that the Haizhou soldiers who were red-eyed were taken to "test guns" by the killing soldiers. Lin Chong, whose workload was reduced a lot, also had the energy to select prisoners and organize them to go to the riverside to watch the punishment... When these prisoners came back, they immediately became much more docile. Under Lin Chong's leadership, they unloaded the supplies carried by the Haizhou soldiers from the ship, while moving the gold, silver and treasures plundered by the "Director Fang" in the village to the ship...

Everything seemed so orderly.

On this day, because the generals had been struggling for most of the night last night, the Song army on the north bank of the river got up very late, and Liu Zhen did not complete the task of assembling the united troops. At noon, he could no longer stay in a hurry and hurried to Tong Guan's tent for help. When he learned that Tong Guan had led his people to the river embankment again, he hurried to the riverside.

Standing by the river, you could faintly hear the sound of gunfire from the other side of the river and the shouts of hoarseness mixed in the gunfire. Tong Guan seemed worried. When he saw Liu Zhen appear, he asked, "Have you sent a message from the other side?"

Liu Zhengong bowed and replied: "The officials also want to ask the ministers about this question - last night, the Haizhou soldiers began to attack Fangla camp. More than a thousand of them were still fighting."

As for Liu Zhen's original intention, he hopes that the longer the war on the other side of the strait, the better, so as to give him enough time to prepare for reinforcements - if the other side of the strait comes to ask for help at this time, Liu Zhen really can't come out.

However, the Song army was in a fierce battle on the other side. In the future, he was expected to bring great military achievements to him. If the troops were too damaged, who would he expect to go to the subsequent battle?

After stopping, Liu Zhen turned to Wang Yuan and bowed and said, "Wang Zhizhai, yesterday, the 'preparing general' under **'s command once said that his team is ready to reinforce at any time. I want to second the Lord Han Shizhong and send him to the other side to check."

Wang Yuan got Tong Guan's hint and immediately replied: "There are 100,000 civilians on the other side, and at least 10,000 soldiers were guarding them. Moreover, the water camp covers a vast area and the camps are extremely scattered. This may be the reason why the Haizhou soldiers have been fighting so far. Han Shizhong only has 1,000 people, and it will be useless to throw them all into it. Why don't I add some more troops to the Lord?"

This is a credit.

Although Shi Chuan on the opposite side deliberately made the gunshots keep ringing, there are old corpses standing here. Many veterans can tell how many enemies are coming from the sound of horse hooves in the wind. They naturally hear: although the gunshots keep ringing, the sound is relatively regular and the direction is very fixed.

Although these people didn't know the fighting style of the Leihuo Soldiers, everyone had already discussed it when Liu Zhen had not arrived, and they all guessed that Shi Chuan had controlled the situation in the Water Village. Even though the two sides still had battles, the scale of the battle was limited by Shi Chuan - yes, it was time to grab credit.

The 150,000-strong army of the imperial court was sitting on the north bank of the river and worried about the attack of Fang La naval army every day. The Haizhou soldiers who came to help from afar, Xi Wu Nuan used more than a thousand people to launch a counterattack. Before they could report to Jiangning Prefecture, they had already occupied the camp of Fang La naval army opposite. When the news spread, not only did the generals present look bad, but Tong Guan and Tan Zhen, who were supervising the battle, could not escape the charge of avoiding war and fearing war.

Of course, Liu Zhen also has to share some of this crime.

However, Tong Guan could not say anything clearly. Tong Guan gave a wink. Taiwei Tan Zhen immediately said in a concerned tone and with deep regret: "The Haizhou soldiers were attacked at noon yesterday. They have been fighting for a day and a night, right? After fighting for so long, even the iron man can't hold on anymore. No wonder they are weak now.

Ahem, at this time, we don’t have to wait for the reward of the Haizhou soldiers. Perhaps they are being held back by a hundred thousand troops and cannot get out their hands to come to us for help... This Taiwei decided to send all three armies across the river to reinforce the Haizhou soldiers."

Liu Zhen hesitated for a moment and found a reason weakly: "I'm afraid... the ships collected are not enough..."

Tong Guan spoke: "According to the naval soldiers of Jiangning Prefecture, at dawn today, a small boat was driven from the Fangla military camp and quickly went downstream, probably the navy army, or the Haizhou regiment was training to gather people to reinforce. According to the military report: Haizhou regiment was training to advance water and land, and there was a cavalry team and a baggage team. Among them, the baggage team was guarding about 700 township soldiers, including the Donghai Township soldiers and the Tongzhou patrol naval soldiers. They walked slowly and were heading towards Jiangning Prefecture along the Jiangbei official road. I heard that the team was driving a large cart, so they moved very quickly. They could arrive at Jiangning Prefecture in about two more days."

Tan Zhen then added: "Walking by land, the movement is slow, but the speed of the fast boat on the water is different. Li Taibai wrote a poem: I will leave the Baidi in the morning among the colorful clouds, and return thousands of miles of Jiangling in one day. If the land-based people in Haizhou can find boats nearby and go downstream, even if they only bring three or five hundred people back, they are expected to arrive tonight. At that time, all the credits of the Jiangnan camp will probably not fall into you or me."

Liu Zhen immediately panicked and replied: "I only collected fifty or sixty small boats, and I can cross about five or six hundred people at a time."

"Enough," Tong Guan immediately ordered: "Fang La naval army was completely destroyed, there was no enemy force on the river surface, even a light boat could cross the river - I ordered: Take Han Shizhong, the 'preparing general' of Ningyuan Village, Gongzhou, Helanhuang Road, as the vanguard, and cross the river in advance. Now, order the three armies to disperse their soldiers and search for all ships nearby... If there are no ships, make bamboo rafts, and must cross the Yangtze River before sunset."

This is a robbery of credit

The regiment trained troops and fought without pay, they relied on the spoils plundered after the war. So at the command of Tong Guan, the regiment trainees took the lead, and were busy searching for everything that could cross the river...

At noon, Han Shizhong led the soldiers to Jiangnan on the first batch of reinforcements. When the boat he was riding approached Fangla Camp, he found that the gap in the village wall that was fighting at night had become very neat, with no floating corpses or pools of blood in the water. The ruins had been slightly corrected, forming an entrance and exit similar to a gate, but there was no heavy wooden door installed.

Han Shizhong thought for a moment and laughed hoarsely: Is it necessary for Haizhou soldiers to be equipped with the door? The water camps of Fang La's water camps were all occupied. The nearest Fang La's army was in Xiuzhou, and on the water surface, Haizhou regiments are now the dominant waters. Even if this water camp has a wide open door, who dares to tease Haizhou soldiers?

There are still people standing guard at this section of the village wall. Unfortunately, the number of people guarding such an important entrance and exit seems too small. There is one on each side, about twenty people. These people do not go to the wall to guard it, but just gather around two black and thick iron-tube-shaped weapons.

Perhaps seeing the Song army flag on the ship, Haizhou Tuanlian on guard did not stop the ship from approaching. When Han Shizhong's warship approached the gap, a soldier wearing a red leather Fanyang hat came forward and asked lazily - this soldier was definitely a farmer, and he didn't know the code of the normal identification of the imperial army. He asked in a straight voice: "Who is coming? Official rank, title, name? Report?"

Han Shizhong smiled bitterly, and he looked up at the logo on the soldier's body - the army of the court. The officer's helmets and clothing are both customized and cannot be surpassed. People who are in the army can understand each other at a glance... However, the other party cannot understand Han Shizhong's clothing, and Han Shizhong cannot understand the other party's clothing. He saw that the other party also had many expressions, such as a shoulder with three arrows hanging on his shoulders, a shield logo and a long strip logo hanging on his arm. Three muskets were embroidered on the shield logo, and a long strip logo embroidered with a spear, with three stars on it.

The logo on the epaulette means that this is a sergeant with a shield-shaped logo on his arm. Three muskets on it means that the person is a special shooter. If it is a musket, it means that the person is a junior shooter. The spear-shaped logo means that the person is a spearman. The three stars indicate that the person has excellent personal fighting ability and can act as the spear captain if necessary.

In fact, the sergeant's chief Fan Yang hat also had a logo, but Han Shizhong was sitting in the boat and was in a low position and did not notice...

Han Shizhong could not understand the other party's identity, so he signaled his followers to come forward to talk, and he looked at the broken wall. After half a day of river selection, there was little blood in the water beside the wall, but the remaining traces on the wooden stakes still showed the fierce battle last night + - This broken wall is about two miles long, and there were traces of fire burning everywhere on the remaining wooden stakes, and some of them were still burning embers, emitting a faint blue smoke.

Two miles - the attack of more than a thousand people from Haizhou Group Training reached the width of the two Song dynasties, which shows how fierce the attack power of the individual soldiers of Haizhou Group Training was.

At this moment, Han Shizhong's mind still echoed the fishing fire on the river that he saw last night. As a general of the Song Dynasty, being familiar with the formation is almost an entry-level skill for officers. However, the battle last night was smooth and perfect, just like a high-level "lantern parade". During the attack, whether it was the participating fleet or the land soldiers, the connection between the formation showed a high level of training...

Han Shizhong measured a little in his mind: If he was the leader of the team to defend, he would reach a width of two miles when he encountered an attack on the front, and the attack team with such fierce artillery fire, can he withstand it?

"Can't stop it" Han Shizhong was shocked to find this answer - the general who commanded the attack last night was also a rare formation master. A wave of * attacks were continuous, making people breathless, and they were irresistible - the remaining broken wooden stakes in the water illustrate this problem.

The gaps in this section of the village wall are not continuous. There are also sections of remaining wooden stakes erected in the water. Countless remaining wooden stakes as thick as thighs have exposed charred forks. Such thick wooden stakes can be broken by their laziness. Can the bravery of the soldiers block such an intense attack?

I'm afraid, there is still a group of soldiers as tough as Haizhou soldiers.

After reaching this conclusion, Han Shizhong turned his attention to the Haizhou soldiers who were on duty at the gate. At this time, the small boat he was riding was allowed to pass. The soldiers guarding the Shuizhaikou did not check Han Shizhong's guard seal or the official documents sent by the Privy Council. His entourage was just talking in vernacular language, and the sergeant had waved his hand to agree to the fleet entry.

Han Shizhong originally wanted to follow the waterway to enter the water village and land near the dock area, but when he saw the Haizhou regiment guarding the gap shaking constantly, and made a try to open his eyelids to stay awake, he waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to immediately rush to the beach to assist the Haizhou regiment in garrison.

The two sides had a simple handover. Next, the Haizhou delegation did not say anything, and fell to the ground and fell asleep. After Han Shizhong set up the post, there was already snoring at the scene, and there was no one talking.

"Is this a weapon that once made a thunderous sound?" Han Shizhong walked to the iron pipe surrounded by the Haizhou regiment training and prepared to observe it carefully. However, even if the Haizhou regiment training sleeps, it still looks tightly at the wheel of the cannon. The two regiment training sleep on the left and right side of the cannon, while the other two regiment training sleep on the tail of the cannon, blocking the cannon tightly. Han Shizhong wanted to see what happened and had to push away these soldiers.

Thinking of the courage that Haizhou Troupe once showed, Han Shizhong decided not to tease him. He spread his hands and said depressedly: "This... the water village is just open like this. I came in, there is not even a person leading the way?"

A small school greeted and said, "Sir, why not take two or three commanders to find Sir Shi, I will take care of you here."

Han Shizhong nodded and ordered: "The other shore is still waiting for our ships so that we can continue to transport troops. When everyone lands, you can send the ship back as soon as possible."

Next, Han Shizhong led three commanders to continue walking deep into the water camp. On the way, when he saw a place where defense was negligent, he would inevitably leave a few people to keep a watch. As he walked along the way, the fewer people around him were. However, Han Shizhong understood the negligence of the Haizhou regiment training. After all, it was not easy to control one or two thousand people. Shichangqing also had to guard against Fang La's army's counterattack, and it was impossible to disperse all his troops.

The dock area is far away from the gap, and Han Shizhong can understand that the fleet is so large that he must leave room to line up before leaving the village. When the Fang La navy fought, it was more than ten miles deep and the dock area was five or six miles long, which was also necessary.

At this moment, the gunfire in the distance had stopped. Along the way, you could occasionally encounter Haizhou group training teams of ten people, but these group training basically dozed off and couldn't ask anything. Han Shizhong took a moment of attention and felt that although the number of Haizhou group training students he saw was small, the order of Fang Lashui Village was even more orderly than the Song Jun camp on the north bank.

Oh, this is just the current situation. It seems that in Fanglashui Village, there were no plans for the location of the tents in the past, but now there are several clear longitude and latitude lines in the village. The traces of cleaning are very new, and there are still stoves of tents left on the ground. From the traces on the scene, it is possible that the Haizhou Tuanzhen organized manpower early in the morning to flatten some tents and use these blank passages to forcibly divide the camp into distinct isolation areas.

After taking a few more steps, the situation Han Shizhong saw confirmed his speculation - deep in the camp, you can see teams of Fang La prisoners forcibly demolishing some tents and wooden houses under the supervision of the Leihuo soldiers, planning a straight passage. At the intersection of the planned passages, a small number of soldiers beating gongs to warn the prisoners to stay in the tent and not go out, dare to step into the passage and walk around at will, and kill immediately.

When passing by, Han Shizhong tried his best to see the faces of these soldiers who fought for a day and night, but found that the mental outlook of these soldiers was really hard to say. In this cold lunar month, most of the Haizhou soldiers' clothes were smoked black, and they could not see their original colors. Countless Haizhou soldiers were open, with hot air coming out of their chests, strong alcohol scents from their mouths, and sweat kept dripping from their foreheads. Everyone seemed exhausted and wanted to lie down and sleep.
