Lord of the House

The wall collapsed from the northwest corner and set fire to the fire. Taking advantage of the wind, they quickly ran to the southeast. The horses screamed and the soldiers saw that the fire in the village was difficult to put down. After the alleyway of Beizhaimen was blocked by the fire, he could only madly rush to break through from Nanzhaimen.

The captive soldiers stuffed more than a dozen sturdy and strong horses into the roadway, blocked one end of the roadway, and drove the horses frantically to Nanzhaimen with knives, spears and arrows. The guards at the Nanzhai Gate were under great pressure. More than 30 flying contradictory vehicles blocked in three or four rows in a row were all overturned or chopped apart by the prisoners regardless of casualties, and the forward array was forced out of the gate. More captive soldiers then climbed up the walls on both sides of the village gate, and flew into the formation of the guards blocking the gate; even if their body was pierced by the provoked spear, they would slash out a knife on the deathbed. ...

Such a brave old soldier who is not afraid of death shows a terrifying appearance that is far more ferocious than when he was fighting for the gate in the morning. It also makes the armored soldiers who block the gate of the village feel intimidated and demoralized, especially when they climb the wall and fly. , The captive soldiers fighting to the death directly disturbed the center of the armored **** array, and the first blockade array finally collapsed after being unable to withstand the pressure.

Ning Zechen, wearing armor and holding a sword, was at the head of the second blockade array.

The Mo Dao, which was the standard of the Shizhen Army, evolved from the horse-chopping sword. The handle is four feet long, the blade is two feet long, and weighs 22 pounds. The blade is sharpened on both sides, like a super-long and widened version of a giant dagger.

The cutting edge is extremely sharp, and in the icy air, there is a cold glow.

Ning Zechen was tall and slender, holding a sword, the tip of which matched the tip of his nose.

The military book records that the Mo Dao can only be used in two ways, but Ning Zechen first learned to use a halberd, and then learned the techniques of stabbing and slashing from Lin Fu and Zhou Pu, and directly applied the techniques of stabbing and slashing to the Mo Dao. With the tremendous strength of his arms, when the captive soldiers rushed in front of him, without waiting for the guards on the left and right to cover, Ning Zechen turned the Mo Dao over and slashed the current enemy's skull in half, blood pouring out like an arrow. , took the lead in cutting down the dozens of captive soldiers who were the first to clash out of the village...

Although the first blockade array collapsed, leaving a little space for the captive enemy to flee from both sides, but with Ao Canghai leading the first battalion of armored soldiers to stand by at the periphery, Ning Zechen must ensure that the captive enemy cannot rush out in a neat formation. Let alone give the captive enemy the opportunity to mount a conflict...

By dusk, Xiaobotouzhai had been completely burned, the way out to the north had been completely blocked by the fire, and the competition for Nanzhaimen had reached the most intense and craziest level. Come out, form the armored Modao team, personally lead the team, support Ning Zechen's department, and jointly block the Nanzhai Gate.

************

When it got dark, the flames of Xiaobotouzhai were blazing in the sky, and the fire of Xiaobotouzhai could be seen from far away in the city of Yangxin.

"Jiangdong Zuo Army did not withdraw from Cangnan, Mr. Zhang, Jiangdong Zuo Army did not withdraw from Cangnan!" Yangxin County Lieutenant Cheng Weiyuan was excited, pointing at the fire in the distance, and ignoring the scholar's demeanor, he said in an excited voice, "I just said that the Jiangdong Zuo Army, taking advantage of the great victory of Cangnan, did not need to rush to the south. The fire must have been caused by Jiangdong's governor Lin Fu leading his troops to besiege the prisoners and Qiliu. Master Lin was indeed a genius in the sky, and he retreated south. The main force of the lure cavalry was chasing the south, and he led the Jiangdong Zuo army to attack it again, making the captive cavalry exhausted..."

"Master Cheng, your voice is about to deaf my ears." Yangxin magistrate Zhang Jinxian said, but he didn't mean to blame Cheng Weiyuan for losing his manners, he commanded calmly, "It seems that Jiangdong Zuojun is here. Cangnan has won another great victory. Lord Cheng, we and the defenders of the city should be even more excited. With Jiangdong Zuo Army in Cangnan, Yangxin is not an isolated city... Zhang Xiancheng, you should go and gather all the families in the city to the county government. On the Lantern Festival, we must give each of the guards of the city 10 taels of silver. I, Zhang Jinxian, have gone bankrupt for defending the city, so I will ask each family to take out this money. If the city is broken, I, Zhang Jinxian, will die. Xie Huangen, I have no complaints and no regrets, but Zhang Xiancheng, you have to think carefully about the consequences of the city's collapse. Seeing that the spring is coming, if you stick to it for another month, the river ice will melt, and before that, the captives will definitely retreat... He wanted to maintain his dignity in front of everyone. When he went down the city gate, he stumbled upon a broken brick under his feet. If it wasn't for the support of his entourage, he almost rolled down the road to the city.

Cheng Weiyuan, a lieutenant of Yangxin County, did not care about Lord Xiaozhi County, and went to boost his morale excitedly.

Lin Fu would not inform Yangxin County of the movements of the Jiangdong Left Army. When Cangnan's army and civilians retreated, Cheng Weiyuan also thought that Jiangdong Zuo Army had retreated south, and then the brigade of captives attacked Cangnan, and Yang Xin was under the greatest pressure. For the past few days, Cheng Weiyuan has been unable to sleep at night, and his food and lodging are on the city gate. Tian, ​​Donglu can't take it away, but the destruction of the city means the destruction of the family.

Although Cheng Weiyuan was born in a literati, but since Yangxin became a trapped city, Cheng Weiyuan led the garrison as a county commander. Although it is still half-baked, I also know the simple truth of "the strong enemy is on the side, and the captives will not dare to attack Yangxin with all their strength". As long as the Jiangdong Zuo army does not withdraw from Cangnan, it means that the defenders here are a little bit ambitious , Yangxin is still safe.

Seeing the fire in Xiaobotouzhai and confirming that the Jiangdong Zuo Army did not withdraw from Cangnan, Cheng Weiyuan's excitement was hard to describe. He also thought of finding a few counties to report to Bohai and other counties in the south. The cavalry cannot find sufficient supplies in the territory, and will retreat faster.

The defenders of Yangxin were also quite excited. They were trapped in a lonely city. Seeing the friendly troops winning consecutive victories on the flanks was a huge boost to the morale of the army.

*********

Zhou Pu, Ning Zechen and the top soldiers on the left and right all felt breathless when the hot wind was blowing at the Nanzhai Gate. When they were forced to retreat, only a hundred remnants took the opportunity to grab the Nanzhai Gate. If the net of heaven and earth is re-laid around the Nanzhai Gate, how can more than a hundred remnants escape?

The captive soldiers who fled over the wall were scattered, and under the siege of the generals of the third battalion, only a few escaped by taking advantage of the chaos or personal bravery...

Lin Mengde saw that Xiaobotou Village had to be burnt to ashes before the fire could be extinguished. Thinking that the army, horses and supplies all over the village would be burned to ashes by the fire, he felt blood dripping from his heart.

Seeing that Zhou Pu was covered in blood, Lin Meng couldn't help but scold him that he couldn't restrain himself because of arson, and that the good things in the stockade could not be caught by farts. These prodigal sons don't know that they are all backed by money to lead troops to fight, so they don't feel bad for burning the stockade.

Not to mention, the pharmaceutical workshops in Jiangning Hekou are now small and large. At present, they mainly produce "Wuyanqing Baibao Dan" and "Wuyanqing Baibao Powder", which have significant curative effects on bruises and traumatic bleeding. To supply Dongyang Township Yongwai, the tens of thousands of bottles of scattered Qi, elixir, and a large number of other spare medicinal materials accumulated by November were brought to Cangnan with the ship. If this batch of medicinal materials is sold in Jiangning, it will be worth tens of thousands. two silver coins.

In addition, when Ge Cunxin set off from Jiangning, he even hired more than a dozen men to accompany him on the boat.

It is with these backings that the soldiers of the left army can be treated in a timely manner for minor injuries without losing their numbers and leaving the ranks. Generally, serious injuries can be rescued on board, and their lives will not die.

This did not take into account the cost of the large ships at sea, the cost of equipping nearly 300 boatmen, and the large amount of supplies on board.

With the support of large ships, all the baggage, food, and injuries will not be a burden on the marching maneuver. The Jiangdong Zuo Army maneuvers along the coastline and has the confidence to deal with the same number of cavalry.

If the cavalry cannot be beaten, they can use the mobility of the cavalry to retreat. If they cannot be beaten, they can completely withdraw to the sea; the use of sea ships for long-distance force projection is even better than the mobility of the cavalry.

To realize Lin Fu's strategic intention of using the sea as the battlefield, in addition to an army with good morale and available combat power, in the final analysis it is silver.

Although Jiangning allocated 60,000 taels of silver to start the trip from Jiangning, deducting 30,000 taels of silver for Anjia silver, and 30,000 taels of silver for supplies, this amount of money was simply not enough for Jiangdong Zuojun.

If the Jiangdong Left Army hadn't dug out allies outside the city of Jinan and acquired enough good armour from the defeated army who fled Jinan at a low price, they would not have the qualifications to go north to Yannan~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Those flying The contradictory car and the high shield provide excellent defense and counter-charge cover for the armored soldiers in the cavalry conflict. Easy to use is easy to use, but in addition to a sturdy wheelbarrow as a stand, each Flying Paradox must use twenty sharp short spears and two strong shields; a Flying Paradox can be equipped with a small team of village soldiers.

However, the village soldiers did not have the ability and courage to fight against the captives in the wild. The Jiangdong Zuo Army's first team of Jia soldiers was equipped with four flying contradictory vehicles plus other strong shields, thick armor and strong crossbow soldiers. The captives rode in the field to fight.

What is behind an army with good morale and available combat power? Still silver! silver.

Lin Meng could not wait to shout loudly in the ears of generals such as Zhou Pu, Ning Zechen, Zhao Qingshan, and Ao Canghai.

It is roughly estimated that forty vehicles were destroyed in this battle. Half of the flying paradox vehicles prepared before heading north to Yannan have been destroyed. Now the auxiliary soldiers and craftsmen of the labor camp are on the boat non-stop to build the flying paradox vehicles and other combat tools. Although the spearhead can be recovered partially, the hard wood and tools Consumption is also great.

Among these people, the one with the most logistical awareness is probably Cao Zi'ang. The key point is that Cao Zi'ang hadn't withdrawn from the southern line, and Lin Mengde couldn't find anyone to complain. Seeing that the fire was getting weaker, he couldn't control it too much. Some things come out always to make up for some. Otherwise, the Jiyun Club would not be able to last until the Eastern Captives retreated.

Lin Mengde is still thinking, now that Xiaobotouzhai has been completely burned down, and if he wants to win over the Sun family in the future, Lin Fu might even subsidize them with money for their reconstruction. .
