Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

In the middle of April in the third year of Taichu, the Jingzhou army went south by boat and went straight to Xiangzhou, but they were all in vain. The gates of Changsha were closed and they refused to fight.Obviously, the rebels had withdrawn from Xiangzhou and headed towards Jiangzhou.

Originally, this was an excellent opportunity to capture Xiangzhou, but the Jingzhou army knew that if they stayed in Changsha for too long, most of the rebels who were in Jiangzhou at the moment would most likely flow down the river from Jiangzhou and head straight for Jianye .

Therefore, the Jingzhou army hurriedly set off from Changsha County, went down the river, passed through Dongting Lake to the Yangtze River, and then entered Poyang Lake, where they joined the [-] troops from East Yangzhou on Poyang Lake.

There were only [-] troops in East Yangzhou, and they did not dare to confront Pei Linzhi directly. They waited for a long time before they came for reinforcements.

At this moment, Xiao Yao led a team of [-] to Yuzhang County and joined Pei Linzhi.

After the Jingzhou army and the East Yangzhou army met at Poyang Lake, they went upstream along the Ganjiang River and landed outside Yuzhang City, preparing to confront the Guangzhou army inside the city.

Both sides have [-] troops. In terms of war experience, the Guangzhou Army is actually lacking a lot, because the north has been experiencing all kinds of wars, large and small, intermittently.

The Guangzhou Army only fought one relatively large war in Yazhou, Jiaozhou, and Panyu, and several small-scale wars in Jiangzhou and Xiangzhou after going north.

But the Guangzhou Army also has its advantages. The population of Guangzhou is mainly immigrants from the Central Plains who migrated from the north to the south. In order to survive in the harsh and unfamiliar environment, they all live together in clans. Different villages compete for interests and resources. Large-scale armed fights often occur, and it is common for people to be wounded and killed.

Therefore, people in Guangzhou are fond of martial arts, and many clan males have been practicing martial arts since they were a few years old. They are very powerful in combat and are not afraid of death.

After joining the army, strict ideological education was carried out. The military discipline is very strict. This is a disciplined and thoughtful army. They know that they are not fighting for the emperor, but for the land behind them and their relatives. Fight for their good life.

Coupled with the fact that the coach Pei Linzhi is brave and good at fighting, and takes the lead, it greatly inspires the confidence and courage of the soldiers.

Another advantage that cannot be ignored is that the equipment of the Guangzhou Army is better than that of the Anguo Army.Yazhou has the best rich iron ore, and its output is abundant. In recent years, it has been intensively casting weapons and armor.

Xiao Yu mainly used the money he earned from overseas to support the army, and when it came time to actually go to the battlefield, his advantages became apparent.

The Anguo Army is not without equipment, and there is also a large amount of military expenditures in finance every year, but the imperial government is bloated and corrupt. This led to cutting corners.

Originally it was fine steel, but it turned into pig iron when it was in the hands of soldiers, and it was originally iron armor, but it became leather armor when it was in the hands of soldiers.

Pei Linzhi didn't waste time, as soon as the enemy ships arrived, they went out of the city to meet the enemy.Because he knew that the longer the delay, the more reinforcements the enemy would have, and they would be at a disadvantage in number, so they had to be defeated one by one.

So he didn't wait for the opponent to attack the city, but took the initiative to attack. Originally, they were also the attacking party.

Therefore, before the Anguo army got off the boat, the Guangzhou army rushed up.The soldiers who had just disembarked were beaten hard before they were ready.

General Anguo had to stop the boats that were docking, use the archers as cover, row the boats back dozens of miles, and go ashore from another place, so that he had enough time to go ashore to form an array.

In this way, it is finally safe to log in.By the time they arrived outside Yuzhang City from the land, the soldiers who had walked for two hours had begun to show signs of fatigue, but they met the Guangzhou Army who were well fed and rested.

When the two sides met, they began to fight. The bed crossbow was the first to greet Anguo's army. It had a long range, and the arrows arrived before the people arrived.

An Guojun also had crossbow arrows. Although the range was not as good as the bed crossbow, it was not bad, but because they were too passive, they were caught off guard before they had time to prepare.

After the □□, the vanguard Xiao Yao took the lead and led the soldiers to charge into the battle, with a long spear in full swing, and his voice made people tremble.

This time, Pei Rinzhi, as the commander in chief, did not take the lead. He is now the commander in chief of the entire army, and he is required to dispatch and command all battles. His safety is related to whether the entire Northern Expedition can be successfully completed.

It was Xiao Yao who volunteered to be the vanguard, because this time he was facing his deadly enemy, the Jingzhou Army.Last time, he was defeated under the double attack of the Jingzhou Army and the Xirong Army. This time, he must avenge his past shame and avenge his dead robes and relatives.

Although the Guangzhou army lacked much experience in combat, they had the bravery of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, so this battle was fought in the dark.

Fighting from noon until it was almost dark, Anguo's army finally couldn't resist and began to flee.The soldiers in Guangzhou still wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue them, but Pei Linzhi had already ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops and began to count the battlefield.

Nearly 2000 people were killed in this battle, and thousands more were injured to varying degrees.The fleeing Anguo Army dropped more than 5000 corpses and captured more than 2000 wounded soldiers. The number of wounded Anguo Army will only be more than that of the Guangzhou Army, and the slightly injured retreated with the large army.

In the first confrontation, the Guangzhou army won.

After dark, he quietly followed the scouts of Anguo Army to report that Anguo Army was camping in the mountains more than ten miles away from Yuzhang City.

When Pei Linzhi heard about the topography of the mountain, he came up with a plan. He called a follower and gave instructions.

In the dead of night, Anguojun, who had worked hard all day, fell into an extremely deep sleep, and even the guards who were watching the night couldn't keep their eyes open.Suddenly, several figures flashed in the dark night, and the guards were stabbed in the back of their necks, and immediately passed out.

Not long after, An Guojun, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly heard two loud bangs. Many people woke up in fright, thinking it was thunder and rain, but it didn't. They were about to go back to sleep when they heard a few horrible yelled, and then someone yelled: "The landslide!"

This time no one can sleep anymore, everyone is up.At this moment, there were a few more loud noises, and more rocks fell, and someone said loudly, "Is it because God is angry and wants to punish us?"

This is tantamount to pouring water into the oil pan, the crowd began to become chaotic, and a serious stampede occurred.

An Guojun fled all the way, found a rocky mountain, and set up camp in the valley.Because it is easy to defend and difficult to attack here, and there are no scattered stones on this stone mountain. I don’t worry about the rebels pushing stones from a high place in the middle of the night to sneak attack. I didn’t expect that for no reason, this good stone mountain exploded in the middle of the night. This is not a ghost. ?Could it be that God is really angry?

Many soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy: "God, have mercy!"

Although there was no third wave of explosions, this wave of chaos also caused hundreds of casualties in the Anguo Army, and more importantly, disturbed the morale of the army and made them lose their fighting spirit.

The head coach of the Anguo Army had never seen such a vision. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't find the crux, so he immediately ordered the camp to retreat.

An Guojun finally retreated to a flat place, and everyone was shocked and tired, so they fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Not long after I fell asleep, I heard someone shouting: "There is an enemy attack!"

Immediately afterwards, they heard the sound of horseshoes and footsteps, and the Guangzhou Army shouted "Come on!" and surrounded them from all directions.

At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, and it was probably Mao's time. The Guangzhou army, which had been up and on its way at Yin's time, arrived at the new camp of the Anguo army and began to attack.

Many Anguo soldiers were still in a state of confusion, and they didn't even know where they put their weapons. It was too late to respond, and the enemy had already killed them.

The Guangzhou soldiers who rode forward shouted loudly: "Surrender without killing!"

Many Anguo soldiers who had not had time to take up their weapons really raised their hands and surrendered.

This war started at the right time, and ended before the hour. Except for two or three thousand Anguo troops who broke through and fled, the rest were all wiped out or surrendered.

The main generals of the Anguo Army still fled, and with their remaining numbers, they should not dare to attack again.

It was the first large-scale confrontation between the Northern Expedition Army and the Anguo Army, and the Northern Expedition Army won a complete victory.They even seized dozens of warships docked in the Ganjiang River, which were abandoned by the fleeing Anguo army. Because too few people fled back, they couldn't take all the boats with them.

Xiao Yao put his hips on his hips and laughed loudly: "This is really a timely help. We can directly kill Jianye City."

But then Pei Linzhi didn't immediately order to attack Jianye. Jianye City had at least tens of thousands of troops stationed there, and Jianye City was so impregnable that it couldn't be attacked for a while. Instead, it would drag reinforcements from other states in the north.

After all, they are still too few in number.He had just captured [-] Anguo troops, and he wanted to absorb all of them. As for how to recruit them, of course, he learned the ideological persuasion education from Xiao Yu.

When the Anguo Army arrived outside Yuzhang City, the Anguo Navy just entered the Pearl River. They sailed unimpeded all the way. There was not a single boat on the river, not even a fishing boat. All the people hid in the dark and watched quietly. This huge fleet.

When they were approaching Panyu, boats finally appeared on the river. The densely packed boats almost filled the entire river. Obviously, this was a situation set up by the Guangzhou Army to prevent their boats from docking.

However, this did not prevent them from landing. They lined up hundreds of warships in twos and then docked on the river bank. Although it was not as convenient as the pier, they could still disembark.Spring in Guangzhou is very warm, so you don’t have to worry about getting cold when you go into the water.

Just as they landed, countless rockets flew over from the opposite bank. It turned out that the Guangzhou military hiding on the opposite bank fired them with bed crossbows and bows, with the purpose of burning down Anguo's ships.

The An Guo Navy realized that they were ambushed, and those who hadn't disembarked quickly put out the fire.But the flaming crossbows were still being fired, and some ships were already on fire, and the fire was too strong to be extinguished.

Someone asked the commander: "General, should we go to the other side and kill those people?"

The coach raised his hand to stop it: "No, it must be a bait to disperse us, or go ashore quickly as planned, besiege Panyu City, and arrange for the boatmen to retreat the boat to the sea and wait."

So after most of the Anguo sailors got off the boat, the boatman quickly turned the boat around and rowed back in the direction it came from.As a result, as soon as they retreated for more than ten miles, they met the Yazhou and Jiaozhou naval divisions who followed behind them. Guan Shan led more than 2 naval divisions and was waiting.
