The Counterattack of the Villains in the Movie World

Chapter 124
The time has come to the end of September in 1853.

For the modern generation from Nanjing to Shanghai, short sleeves are the most normal attire at this time. Even in October, there are not a few people who wear short sleeves.

However, in this era, Wu Yan already needs to start thinking about how to survive the winter. When he himself reached the No.12 floor in "Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training Golden Bell Cover", he has already reached the state of being invulnerable to cold and heat.

Normal weather changes have no effect on him, as long as he doesn't risk his life to go to the Antarctic and stay there without clothes, there will be no problem.

But he is no longer alone.

He also has nearly ten thousand soldiers under his command.

"Last year, Songjiang Mansion, that is, Shanghai, experienced heavy snowfall for three consecutive days, and in some places the snow was as thick as 1.5 meters..."

This is the information that Wu Yancai saw. His staff system collected a lot of similar information for him. It seems that it has nothing to do with the war, but in fact it has a great impact.

Especially for him, because in his impression, heavy snowfall in Shanghai can be on the news.And the matter of people freezing to death in a snowy day is unsurprising news.

But in this era, it is quite normal for people to freeze to death in winter.

"The winter clothes of Zhuangyuan Camp are being transported, so it's not a big problem, but the people in Wuying don't have winter clothes."

The military camp that Wu Yan built with prisoners of war from the Taiping Army not only didn’t have winter clothes, but even the standard Qing court uniforms, not to mention the messy clothes, because the previous battles were still in dilapidated condition.If it wasn't for the fact that Wu Yan returned the weapons they surrendered to them before, no one would believe that they were soldiers, but the beggar gang disciples would be more similar.

Such a troop, even if Wu Yan has the reputation of being brave and unparalleled, and has the skill effect bonus of an emperor through the ages, if he really leads them to fight in winter, it will not be able to form a truly effective combat power.

"I haven't really started to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. Why is it so difficult?"

When Wu Yan thought about these questions, he couldn't help sighing.

Although there are a lot of staff and military divisions under him, there are not many who can really solve problems. No matter how many good opinions there are, it is meaningless if no one implements them.

"It would be great if Zeng Guofan could help me. Although he doesn't have much money, he can make a lot of money and resources."

Wu Yan thought of Zeng Guofan who he had dealt with in the capital again.

You must know that the 10,000+ Hunan Army formed by Zeng Guofan was completely self-raised, and the Qing court did not allocate any funds.Zeng Guofan's method of raising military expenses was to ask for donations from wealthy households, and to use some of the places in prison students given to him by the Qing court to sell officials to make money.

Of course, Zeng Guofan's reputation in history is mixed, and it is also directly related to his promotion of the lijin system. This method was not created by Zeng Guofan, but by Lei Yicheng, the assistant of Jiangbei Daying.

To put it simply, it is to let the Hunan Army set up road cards everywhere to collect tolls,

Although the lijin in the lijin system is a very small unit, according to regulations, only 2% to 3% of the total value of passing goods is charged as tolls, but in practice, up to 10% of tolls can be charged.

How many people are not greedy for money?

Even if it is military expenses, it may be exploited layer by layer.

The Hunan Army was able to destroy the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom mainly because of the military expenses collected by the lijin system. Hunan, the base camp of the Hunan Army, can collect about 100 million taels of silver every year by relying on this system.

Later, the lijin system was promoted throughout the country, and the officials were able to collect tens of millions of taels of silver every year, which was indispensable for all kinds of private pockets.

"Even if I want to take it now, I can't take it."

Wu Yan lacked the conditions to collect lijin, because he didn't take down any city, and he was always in a state of marching, and there was no business way for him to collect it.

And it’s not enough just to have money. In this era, there are many resources that money can’t buy. For example, cotton for making cotton clothes is very tight.Not to mention buying at a low price, even if you want to buy cotton clothes at normal market prices and make winter clothes for the people in the military camp, it is very difficult.

And Zeng Guofan has this resource.

I don't know how many various gentry and wealthy businessmen his Hunan Army helped him contact.

"I don't know where Zeng Guofan's Hunan army went."

Although Wu Yan has been appointed as a general under orders to lead the counter-insurgency on behalf of Emperor Xianfeng, the lack of cooperation from various places and departments has left him with insufficient intelligence.

After much deliberation, Wu Yan still couldn't find a good solution, so he decided to kill Yang Xiuqing first.

He doesn't know how to fight Danyang County City, and he only fights Nanjing City if he wants to fight, and he doesn't fight right now.

He needs to accumulate more strength in the process of countering the rebellion, and reach the level of high meritorious service, and then...

"My lord, I'm ready."

Master Zheng came in to report, and Wu Yan paused his thinking, stepped on the imperial bestowed sword he had just obtained, and left the camp.

This knife came together with the imperial decree. It was said that it was the precious knife used by Nurhachi back then. Wu Yan was not interested in Nurhachi. The reason why he wore it was because this knife was a treasure in the true sense.

It is more powerful than the Imperial Forest Saber that originally belonged to Ding Xiu that he got from the system, which is normal, after all, it is Nurhachi, the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and Ding Xiu is just a quack.

In the Qing Dynasty, there was a saying of the five emperors' swords, which refers to the royal swords of the five emperors, Nurhachi, Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong.In terms of the characteristics of the Wudi Dao, the Shunzhi Dao does not kill, the Kangxi Dao is designed to kill civil and military ministers, the Yongzheng Dao is not easily used, and the Qianlong Dao can only be described as a local tyrant.

The one that is really suitable for the battlefield is Nurhachi's knife.

According to the rumors, Nurhachi also had a miraculous record of repelling [-] enemy troops with three people.

Whether it is true or not is not considered, but the knife is really good, with a total length of 94 cm, a blade of 75 cm, and a width of 4 cm.

With this knife, Wu Yan was even more dissatisfied.

"Edicts and knives can be delivered, but food and grass cannot be delivered, hehe..."

There were not many soldiers and horses outside the camp, only a few hundred horsemen. After Wu Yan came out, he followed Wu Yan to the agreed place.

He didn't bring so many people because he was worried that Yang Xiuqing would attack the champion camp with muskets in his hands. If Yang Xiuqing really only defended but not attacked, even if Yang Xiuqing brought 5 people to fight, more than half of them would be killed or injured.

Moreover, there are sentry investigations, if Yang Xiuqing's camp changes, or a large number of soldiers and horses suddenly appear without knowing the details, Wu Yan can also return to the camp to respond effectively.

The location of the battle is only five miles away from his camp, and he will be there soon.

"Pity."

As soon as he arrived at the place, Wu Yan sighed.

In addition to the ring that has been built, there are thousands of people from the Taiping Army, all of whom are cavalry.

But Yang Xiuqing's banner was not raised.

Wu Yan originally thought that even if Yang Xiuqing brought tens of thousands of people to watch the battle, he would forcefully break through the formation and kill the opponent.

But given his reputation, even if Yang Xiuqing really came, he would not dare to come blatantly. He must be hiding among the cavalry to watch.

The fact is exactly the same. When Yang Xiuqing saw Wu Yan for the first time, he felt very threatened, because he clearly saw that Wu Yan only brought a mere hundred horses.

Under normal circumstances, with the thousands of cavalry he brought, a single charge would be able to take down a hundred cavalry, but if Zhao Wuji was among them...

"Don't do anything yet." Yang Xiuqing ordered: "If he dies in the ring, then go to the battle and then go to the camp."

Take orders from left to right.

However, his idea was determined to be impossible to realize from the very beginning, because Wu Yan had no intention of going to the ring at all.

"Just fight here, if you buried gunpowder under the ring, wouldn't I be wiped out?"

After Wu Yan arrived at the scene, relying on his unparalleled military strength, he rode his horse to a position some distance away from the ring, and told the people around him to communicate with him in the past, mainly for this reason.

If he were Yang Xiuqing, [-]% would be tampering under the ring.

"This dog thief..."

Yang Xiuqing somewhat regretted why he didn't think of this before. He should bury the several acres of land around the ring with gunpowder, and said, "Promise him."

Naturally, someone nearby sent an order quietly, and it must be ensured that Wu Yan could not find out that Yang Xiuqing was here.

After the two sides agreed, the Taiping Army came out with 36 cavalry.

Wu Yan's eyesight is very good, and he recognized yesterday and the 36 so-called quacks who followed the Taiping Army envoy but dared not approach his camp.

Seeing that the 36 riders were getting closer and closer to him, Wu Yan didn't feel any excitement. In the process of learning martial arts with Hong Riqing, he also had a deep understanding of the so-called Jianghu in this world.

In fact, the so-called Jianghu no longer exists in this world, because real martial arts are almost extinct, and have begun to evolve into martial arts similar to Chinese martial arts.

Previously, Su Can claimed to be invincible in Guangzhou, and he used mostly tiger and crane double-shaped boxing techniques. Although he also knows internal skills, it is very superficial.

From this, it can also be seen how scarce people with internal skills are in this era.

"I'll give you a chance." When 36 Qiqi stopped more than ten meters in front of him, Wu Yan said with a blank face: "Must be with me, those who eat well and drink hot, have serious meritorious backgrounds, don't follow me." I'm a fool, I'll die here today."

Hearing Wu Yan's words, the 36 riders behaved differently, and some of them seemed to be moved, because Wu Yan is now a general appointed by the Qing court after all, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is a rebel army after all.

But even if they were tempted, no one really dared to seek refuge with Wu Yan on the spot. They dared to besiege and kill Wu Yan when they knew that Wu Yan had the best martial arts in the world, because they couldn't help themselves.

Is it true that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is like the slogan they shouted when they rebelled, everyone is equal?

"Stop talking nonsense, Zhao Wuji, today is your death day." The leader shouted directly: "Do you dare to dismount?"

It is normal for martial arts masters to be proficient in equestrian skills, but facing the champion of martial arts Zhao Wuji, how dare they engage in horse battles with Zhao Wuji?

All kinds of boxing and kicking techniques, including hidden weapons and weapons, also require both feet to stand on the ground to be able to exert their strength. Being good at horsemanship does not mean that you are good at horse fighting. The racing car will only be hanged and beaten.

Wu Yan pondered for a while, but he didn't see the picture of these masters of the rivers and lakes bowing their heads and bowing to him on the spot as he expected, so he sighed.

"Then they all die."

When the voice fell, Wu Yan had already drawn his knife, and he jumped up from the horse's back like a big bird suddenly spreading its wings.

"Very courageous."

Several people among the 36 riders yelled, but not to praise Wu Yan's courage, but to make noises to disturb Wu Yan's hearing.

When they yelled, all kinds of hidden weapons in their hands had already shot Wu Yan in the air, and some people got off their horses immediately and prepared to surround and kill Wu Yan who was on the ground with their weapons.

However, Wu Yanren was in the air, but he moved a foot across the ground with a strange movement, avoiding multiple hidden weapons that sealed his throat with blood. Flying seven seems to be missed, but it is actually a hidden weapon to block his movement.

Some masters of the rivers and lakes also took the opportunity to jump up, wanting to kill Wu Yanren when he was in the air and unable to breathe.

But when they slashed with their weapons, they found that what they slashed was actually an afterimage.

The real Wu Yan has already landed on the ground with the body-shifting technique.

A cold light suddenly appeared, making people feel cold under the blue sky and white sun, but just by seeing each other, the bodies of three masters of the rivers and lakes began to fall to the ground.

Wu Yan has never learned any martial arts-level sword skills, but a generation of master-level martial arts also contains a lot of sword skills. The earliest master-level Xingyiquan also has the skill of using big spears.

Although it is not comparable to "Dugu Nine Swords" and "Flying Immortals Beyond the Sky", it is completely enough to deal with these ordinary masters of the rivers and lakes.

Coupled with the hard skills practiced by the thirteen Taibao, Wu Yan bumped into the masters of the rivers and lakes, and it was not much different from the ordinary soldiers he charged into the battle alone before.

Although Wu Yan's internal strength is only 10 years old, it surpasses any one of these 36 people. In addition to the strong physical quality brought by hard work, he is able to achieve the highest level in terms of speed, strength, and reaction speed. Crush this group of so-called martial arts masters.

Faster than the first line, it is the natural moat.

What's more, Wu Yan passed more than one line faster?

The light of the sword was like a horse, sweeping through the crowd continuously. The 36 masters of the rivers and lakes recruited by Yang Xiuqing, the [-]-year-old Taiping Army, had already been hit to the point without even knowing Wu Yan's real position.

From the eyes of the onlookers, after Zao Wou-ki met 36 riders alone, he suddenly turned into a tornado.After the hacker turned his back on his back, only Zhao Wuji was independent.

They didn't even have time to discuss the outcome, and they couldn't see clearly what kind of moves the two sides used. The outcome was already undisputed.

It was agreed that from the Yangtze River as the dividing line, from the area occupied by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the south, all the masters of the rivers and lakes were selected. 36 top masters were selected by Zhao Wuji within almost a time of meeting each other. Killed?
The thousands of riders brought by Yang Xiuqing were all dumbfounded, because most of these 36 masters were the "coaches" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. When training them, they had seen and experienced it with their own eyes.

But now...

This is Zhao Wuji, the number one master in the world?
When Qianqi was shocked, Nine Thousand Years Old Yang Xiuqing took a deep breath, angry and regretful at the same time, he felt that he should not have brought so many people to watch this battle, because he could feel the shock and fear of the people around him, There is even some admiration in the eyes.

"My lord, how about..."

Someone next to him suggested that the cavalry should charge.

Judging from the distance between the two sides, although there are horses beside Zhao Wuji, if they charge, Zhao Wuji can only return to the formation in a hurry, and they will be caught off guard.

However, Yang Xiuqing was timid, because he knew very well that his people were a little timid now.

"Walk."

Yang Xiuqing flirted and left without ordering to collect the corpses of the 36 Jianghu masters and Taiping Army instructors he had found.

Speaking of fear, he was the most afraid in the audience, because he was not sure whether Wu Yan knew what he looked like, whether he was present or not.

If Qianqi charged forward, what if he was killed by Zhao Wuji and then pursued him to take his life?
However, what Yang Xiuqing didn't know was that the 36 masters of the rivers and lakes were not dead yet.
