Watch the sea

Chapter 108

Jiang Di waited for another three days, so anxious that the corners of his mouth burst into flames. In the past few days, news came from the military scouts that Yingbei's disease had been brought under control.Seeing that Yinghai's internal worries are about to be eliminated, he becomes more and more restless.

Fortunately, on the fourth day after the request for help arrived in Jindu, the Changzhou garrison finally arrived at the Yinghai battlefield.

Jiang Di breathed a sigh of relief and finally heaved a sigh of relief. He cheered up and appointed several important lieutenants from the left battalion of the East China Sea Navy, and personally led them to the Changzhou garrison camp that came to support them.The generals leading the troops on the other side were all from well-known families in the twelve cities in the south of the Yangtze River, so he had to go down to express his respects and thanks on behalf of His Royal Highness King Jing.

As soon as Jiang Di and his men stepped into the gate of the garrison camp, they were eagerly welcomed in by the officer guarding the gate. Jiang Di glanced at him and felt a little unfamiliar, but now is not the time to worry about it, let alone There are too many officers guarding the gate, and it is normal for him, an admiral of the left division of the Donghai Navy, not to recognize the low-level officers of the Changzhou garrison.

"Several generals are waiting for the admiral in the main tent. General, please."

Jiang Di smiled and nodded, without thinking about it any longer, exchanged warm and polite words with the officer, and followed him to the main tent.

The Changzhou garrison has a well-organized appearance. The soldiers outside the main tent are holding long guns, keeping their eyes straight, and standing upright.Jiang Di secretly praised a few words in his heart, with the support of these Changzhou garrison troops, it is just around the corner to win a mere Yinghai City.

Thinking this way in his heart, he couldn't help speeding up, with a decent smile on his face, he led a group of lieutenants, and followed the guard officer into the main tent of the camp.

***

At the same time that Jiang Di entered the Changzhou garrison camp, Ying Hai also received a secret report from a soldier secretly sent by Lian Songcheng.

Seeing that it was Lian Songcheng's handwriting, Xie Qian couldn't hide his excitement.Ever since Lian Songcheng left Huai Ze City, there has been no news at all. Later, when the East China Sea Division suddenly changed, Jiang Di, the admiral of the left division, put Qin Youfang, the commander of the right division, under house arrest. Changzhou Army badge, claiming to be ordered to temporarily act as the chief admiral of the Donghai Navy.

Although the news of Lian Songcheng's accident has not been spread among the ordinary soldiers, there has been a faint speculation in the army, not to mention that it can't be hidden from the leading generals in Changzhou.

When Jiang Di raises his troops against Ying Hai and surrenders to the king with a high profile, the people in Changzhou are panicked and people's hearts are fluctuating, and the rumors in the army are also intensified.Not to mention other people, even Xie Yu, who knew a thing or two, began to wonder if something went wrong, something happened to Song Chengzhen, otherwise why didn't even the direct line of the son of heaven in the Changzhou garrison move at all? , It's like a group of dragons without a leader, acting in their own way.

Even if Su Lang had mentioned to him cryptically before that Lian Songcheng would follow his plan and "die" once and for all, only the well-hidden families in the Twelve Cities in the South of the Yangtze River would be able to show their fox tails in peace.But seeing that there was no movement in Twelve Cities, the situation on Yinghai's side was rather tense. As time passed, Xie Gu felt pressured and inevitably began to worry.

Until today, a letter written by Lian Songcheng finally let Xie Yu let out a long sigh of relief.No wonder others, it is really that the "long line to catch big fish" is too long, with too much skill and courage.

Lian Songcheng cheated his death with a plan, in order to let Changzhou go into chaos for a while, and lure them to take it lightly. He took advantage of the opportunity to draw out the two shallowest fish in the pond—Jiang Di, a traitor in the army, and Rui, a politician in Changzhou. What do you think.

The two had been expected.Changzhou can't be in vain, and of course the fish to be caught are not limited to these two. The real big fish is the Changzhou family behind them.No one can tell how many tricks there are in the twelve cities in the south of the Yangtze River.The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. What compares is courage and patience.

King Jing's rebellion, Changzhou is the focus of contention, and Yinghai is the roadblock that King Jing cannot avoid in taking Changzhou.As long as they can stabilize the war in Yinghai, half of the game will be done.

According to the original plan, Yinghai City was easy to defend but difficult to attack, with a deep foundation and a garrison of Lian Songcheng's direct line next to it, which should have been enough to confront the left division of the East China Sea Navy led by Jiang Di.As time went on, Jiang Di couldn't bear the pressure, and had to ask for help from the family of the Twelve Cities in the South of the Yangtze River who rebelled against the water and respected the king.

Changes can happen as they come, and they can't be expected. Before they had fully prepared and deployed, Yinghai's sudden plague and Jiang Di's closure of the city for all reasons caught them by surprise.

When Su Lang rushed thousands of miles to reach Yinghai, it would be a lie to say that he was not panicked.The Su family has looked at it for a hundred years, and if there is a bad situation, it will be ruined by a catastrophe without any warning.

At that time, Su Lang didn't know what to do next.In the past dynasties, the plague was no small matter. They were able to do this game, all because of the unity of Yinghai City, their deep foundation, and their ability to withstand the pressure of the left division of the East China Sea Navy.But Yinghai, who is plagued by plague and has serious internal worries, can the battle in Changzhou rely on them?

For Su Lang, Yinghai is home, a place where he lives and lives, and nothing can be lost.But as far as the emperor is concerned, Yinghai, like other cities in Changzhou, is the land of King Dayin.

At that time, the epidemic situation was severe, people's hearts in Changzhou were fluctuating, and the war was imminent. Not to mention others, even he knew that it was not wise to continue to bet on Yinghai with chips and trust. It was the right choice to redo the plan as soon as possible.

Perhaps because of his desperate courage, Su Lang still took the gamble. Before the emperor made a decision, he used the Fuyun Diji to cross the boundary of being a minister, bet on the future of the Yinghai Su family, and tried to mobilize the Ningzhou garrison.It was unexpected, but it should have been expected. He got the support of the Huai Ze Navy as he wished, and waited for the decision of His Majesty Shanming Guying.

Today, when Lian Songcheng and Yishan Academy arrive at the Yinghai battlefield, all the chess pieces placed on the Changzhou chess game have changed from dark to clear, and it is finally time to completely close the net.

Ming Di exploded in mid-air outside Yinghai City, Su Lang and Xing Hun put on their armor, and the sun was shining brightly outside the door.

The suspension bridge in front of Yinghainan City Gate was slowly lowered after a lapse of seven days, and the defenders who were ready to go raised their swords and rushed to the battlefield with horns of charge and drums beating.

***

Just as Jiang Di stepped into the main tent, the moment his eyes touched the back of the tent, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately realized that something was wrong, but it was too late to retreat at this time.

The "Yuanmen officer" who had just invited him in was the first to draw his sword in his hand, and the sound of swords and soldiers unsheathing in the tent resounded in an instant, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Di and the lieutenants were all strangled on their necks. took the sword.

The back figure standing in front of the long case slowly turned around, Jiang Di's face turned pale suddenly, on Ji Xia's day, the whole person was like falling into an ice cellar but cold to the bone——

It’s over.

Jiang Di and a group of lieutenants from the left division of the Donghai Navy were all detained pending trial, and Lian Songcheng's personal guards recovered the Changzhou Army's black iron token from Jiang Di.

A sound of dysprosium resounded through the sky, and the Changzhou garrison brought by Lian Songcheng attacked back and forth with the Yinghai garrison army with lightning speed, and completely surrounded the left division camp of the Donghai Navy.

The chief general of the left division of the East China Sea Navy was not there, and the lieutenant general who spoke normally could not be found, and the chaos became a mess for a while.Some people only knew that Yinghai City had suddenly counterattacked, so they picked up the guy and went up. Others heard the same horses galloping behind the camp, thinking that it was the Changzhou garrison who came to support them, and invited them into their camp without any resistance.

By the time I realized something was wrong, it was too late, so I was caught off guard and made dumplings.

……

Lian Songcheng stood with his hands behind his back on the high platform of the left division camp of the Donghai Navy, his majestic eyes swept across the formations below the stage, all the soldiers were disarmed, their eyes lowered, waiting for the final verdict.

"You are all the people of Dayin, and the land you step on is the home of your compatriots. The Dongying people have already come to the door, and the Yichong artillery fire has been fired for how many rounds. You are called Donghai Division. Where were you when Donghai was in an emergency?"

"I know that you are all ordinary soldiers, and you can follow what the general above says. Let you make your own decisions today. I, Lian Songcheng, make the decision. If you don't want to stay here, you can take ten taels of silver and leave on your own. If you want to stay, then take your weapons and keep in mind that you are the East China Sea division, and the East China Sea is still waiting for you to guard it!"

The recruit stood in a corner of the lineup, looked around, saw no one moved, he swallowed, turned his head and asked in a low voice to the people around him: "Brother Zhao, do you want to leave?"

"Think." The veteran called "Brother Zhao" replied flatly without looking sideways.

"Ah?" The recruit didn't expect to get such a reply, and asked in surprise, "Do you really want to leave?"

"I want to leave." Brother Zhao turned his head, glanced at the recruits, and continued: "Wars are not fun, who doesn't want to leave? You are still young, if someone leaves, you should follow. I will not leave, I don’t have any great ambitions, but someone must guard the East China Sea. With veteran soldiers like us around, I can’t let you brats go.”

Lian Songcheng stood on the high platform and repeated it again.A few people started to come out in twos and threes in the queue, and Lian Songcheng's personal guards were registering one by one by the table.The recruit looked around, and Brother Zhao gave him a push: "Let's go."

"Brother Zhao..." The recruit turned around and hesitated for a while.

Brother Zhao waved at him: "Go."

On the high platform, Lian Songcheng, Governor of Changzhou, stood next to the military flag with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept over them, his face was still solemn and calm.The sun shone on his armor, refracting a sharp luster.His armor is not new, it is dark in color.

The recruits had heard from brother Zhao before that the colors on the armor were all blood-stained, there were other people's and their own.

The recruit took a few steps in the direction of the platform. He looked up at the majestic and quiet Governor of Changzhou, and then looked down at the brand new armor on his body. For some reason, he began to think about the blood-stained body in his mind. The appearance of wearing armor on oneself.The curled fingers were slowly clenched, and after a long time, he suddenly turned around and strode back to the queue.

He was a little embarrassed and shy, but also eager to try: "Brother Zhao, I still don't want to leave, I also want to stay, I haven't beaten Dongying Maozi yet."

Dayin's military flag was fluttering in the wind under the scorching sun, and the recruit suddenly felt that the ups and downs in his chest these days had finally come to fruition at this moment.

***

The heavy rain in summer always comes as soon as it is said, and Lian Songcheng spent two days reorganizing the left division of the Donghai Navy.On the second day after the war in Yinghai ended, Su Lang's father, Lord Su Que of Yingguo, finally rushed back to Yinghai City in Changzhou from the Jingzhou Silk Road in the northwest under the escort of the Emperor's Shadow Guard.

It was a coincidence that he came, because on the same night, Yichong's [-]-mile urgent battle report was sent to Yingguo's mansion, and what they had been worrying about for a long time finally happened-the Dongpu Navy and the Western Sea Fleet joined forces to fight, They turned north together and attacked the border of Dayin East China Sea. Several garrison troops returning to defend Yichong have already intercepted them first, but I am afraid that within a few days, the East China Sea defense line will definitely be chaotic.

Sure enough, not long after this battle report was sent to Yinghai, a letter of appeal for help from General Qin Youfang, the right division of the Donghai Navy, arrived.

The Allied Forces of Dongying and Western Oceans have made sufficient preparations this time, and intentionally clicked and breached more. The defense line of Dayin East Sea is already fragile, and now there is civil strife, and the left division of the navy is still besieging Yinghai there. Qin Youfang is really hard to support alone.

The lights in the study room of Duke Yingguo’s mansion were on all night again, and Changzhou was in a mess waiting to be cleaned up. Rui Hesi and the heads of aristocratic families in Twelve Cities in the South of the Yangtze River were detained in Jindu with the help of Yishan Academy, and no one else was worthy enough to move them. Therefore, Su Que, Lord Ying, and Ling Qi, the leader of the Shadow Guard of the Son of Heaven, must go in person.

Lian Songcheng finished the left division of the East China Sea Navy, and planned to cooperate with the Ningzhou garrison to resolve the Dingkang battle as soon as possible, but now that the foreign enemy is present, it is too late, and he has to go to the East China Sea tomorrow morning at the latest.

Su Que pondered for a moment, then stood up and patted the shoulders of the two young men in front of him, with both relief and guilt in his eyes: "Late makes changes, people locked up in Jindu can't be delayed, and Commander Ling and I have to go there immediately. I can give it to you."

Su Lang just laughed after hearing this, but his eyes were full of coldness: "It's just right to give it to me, I still have something to return to him."

Xing Hui quietly shook Su Lang's clenched hand, nodded and asked Su Que: "I heard that Shi Bo just mentioned that my elder brother returned to the imperial capital, then my father..."

Su Que was also a little puzzled when he mentioned this matter, but he still answered truthfully: "The Lord of the Eastern Capital has mentioned that he is going to go to Cangwu City in Yunzhou."

"Cangwu City?" Xinghui wondered for a long time after hearing the words, but was still puzzled.

……

In the summer of the 11th year of Xuanxi, foreign enemies waited for an opportunity, and finally stretched out their greedy minions to Dayin Donghai in the middle of the night when the rain was pouring.

Lian Songcheng led the reorganized left division of the East China Sea Navy and half of the Changzhou garrison to the East China Sea battlefield.

Su Que, Duke of Ying, and Ling Qi, leader of the Emperor's Shadow Guard, set off for Jindu to rectify the civil strife in Changzhou.

And the first battle after turning from defense to offense—the Dingkang battlefield on the north bank of the Lanjiang River, like Yinghai City, was once again handed over to young people.

They are young, but at the time.

***

At that time, the night in the imperial capital was still fine.

After hearing the report from the emperor's shadow guard, Ling Ye came back from the front court of the imperial city. As soon as he stepped into the door of Ming Cheng Hall, he saw Chu Heng obediently sitting at the table waiting for him to have a meal together.

Ling Ye slightly raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything, walked to the table and sat down after cleaning his hands, first filled a bowl of soup for Chu Heng.

Chu Heng quietly took a look at His Majesty's expression, seeing that he was always calm as usual, the breath hanging in his heart gradually relaxed.He was thinking too much, it seems that the Shadow Guard of the Son of Heaven didn't say much.

Chu Heng was indeed injured this time.

He didn't forcefully kill Fang Hongzhen directly, but forcibly spared his life.Because Lishan Dongjun's forcible killing and Dayin Emperor's questioning have different meanings for the aristocratic families in Kyushu.

The former could just be that the emperor wanted to kill Fang Hongzhen, so he secretly made a deal with Lishan.But the latter is the authority of the emperor imposed on the Mahayana realm, which will deter all the aristocratic families with active minds.Let everyone re-evaluate the attitude of Mahayana Dongjun, and let everyone know that the royal family has no Mahayana realm, but Lishan Dongjun Ji Wuyue is a minister of the emperor.

When Chu Heng returned to the imperial capital this time, he directly used Ji Wuyue's name.He specially asked for an order, which was tantamount to telling all the aristocratic families that Cangwu Wuzun Fang Hongzhen was personally captured and sent to the emperor by Lishan Dong Jun for questioning.The imposition of national law on the Mahayana realm is not a secret transaction, but because the emperor's awe-inspiring majesty does not allow anyone to violate it.

But Ling Ye felt that, as far as he was concerned, Fang Hongzhen could bear it, and he had no intention of questioning Wu Zun Cangwu in the imperial capital.As soon as King Jing falls, even if there is a Mahayana state, Cangwu City will be a man with its tail between its tail and a lot of restraint for at least the next ten years.

When the water is clear, there will be no fish. Kyushu is so big, the undercurrents under the sea will not be the only ones that surfaced with King Jing. He can tolerate others, and he can also tolerate the restrained Cangwu City.

But Chu Heng gave him an unexpected surprise.

But happiness is only an accident, and surprise is what firmly affects his heart——

He can tolerate Fang Hongzhen and Cangwucheng, but Chu Heng must never put himself in danger again.That time at the Lushui Cemetery was enough, but his queen obviously still didn't remember his words.

The shadow guard reported that Chu Heng didn't just follow the plan to frighten Fang Hongzhen to send Su Que away, but when he directly shot and killed him, he knew why Chu Heng didn't come to see him first when he returned to the imperial capital, but ran to Mingcheng instead. Temple.

He just knew that if he had discussed it beforehand, he would definitely not agree with him taking the risk of injury to kill Mahayana, so he simply didn't say hello, and just cut first and played later.

Wanting to avoid the Lord of Martial Heroes, Xie Chu, is a lie, not thinking of a reason to explain it, and not daring to see himself is the truth.

It would be strange if Chu Heng was not injured. Ye Jianwei, the master of the Eastern Capital, bypassed Chu Heng and handed the letter to the shadow guard. He could guess what he would say without opening it.

After the dinner was finished peacefully, Ling Ye sat motionless at the table, and his expression gradually sank.Chu Heng was startled, instinctively sensed the danger, and almost wanted to sneak out of the hall.Fortunately, reason was ahead of the legs, and he controlled his feet in advance.

Ling Ye looked at Chu Heng calmly, until he looked away guiltily, then stretched out his hand to him, and said in a calm voice, "Come here, I will interrogate you."
