Chapter 309: A strong enemy is coming
"We should eat the king's fortune and be loyal to the king. Not to mention Kaifeng, even if we are in the sea of swords and fire, we should not frown." Xiao Yi started to take eye drops, and he was really a villain.
"Your Majesty, since Eunuch Xiao is very good at fist and kicking, you might as well let Eunuch Xiao follow King Han to the north, so that it would be more guaranteed." An Jinhai couldn't stand it and couldn't help but say disgustingly.
Xiao Yi, who was righteous and righteous, was like a duck who was pinched to his throat, and he was instantly stopped. This was really a sword to seal the throat.
"He is very good at fist and kicking. I'm afraid he can't walk for a round in front of Zhenhai Hou." Li Yu sneered. Xiao Yi was at most capable of fighting among eunuchs, and in front of a real master, he was like paper.
"What Your Majesty said is that I can only show Your Majesty the door and catch some villains." Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief. This is incompetent, sometimes it is a good thing, otherwise he might be really sent to the Song Dynasty. He, a eunuch, left the palace, was nothing, and he greeted all the ancestors of An Jinhai in his heart.
"The secret guards under the command of King Han are all going south?" Li Yu was too lazy to care about the dirty things between them, but instead was quite puzzled by King Han's move. He did not make any arrangements for anything else, and he was very concerned about the secret guards.
"Indeed, according to the news from the spy, one man and two horses all the way south, with extremely fast speed. I'm afraid we will be able to reach Jianzhou in the next two days." Xiao Yi gritted his teeth at this. He originally planned to start attacking the secret guards as soon as the King of Han got on the ship, but now he can't even find someone.
As for the trouble of going to Jianzhou to find the secret guards, Xiao Yi really didn't have this. The Marquis of Zhenhai and his generals were all killer masters. Only those of his subordinates looked majestic on weekdays, probably not enough to be stuck in the gaps.
"Why is this true, it's really elusive." Li Yu was puzzled. If he broke the whole thing and saw that he entered the territory of the Zhongyong Army, he could also say that he was staring at Sun Yu to prevent any abnormal movements. But now that he is so popular, even a blind man can hear it. What's the point of going there?
"I don't know either." Xiao Yi shook his head, he couldn't say that he was guarding himself.
"Well, let's talk about it later." Li Yu shook his head. Anyway, there was only a few people, so there was no big noise. Let's watch it later.
Li Yu always felt that Xiao Yi was loyal, but he did not expect that it would be easy for Xiao Yi to fool him if he lost the line between King Han and the Secret Guard.
"Your Majesty, this Korean king has a lot of industries, especially Wenxiang Pavilion and the money shop. If no one takes care of it, it will inevitably attract people to covet it." After Xiao Yi said that, he lowered his head and stared at the ground.
"Let's talk about it later. If you really don't open your eyes, come and report to me." That was his younger brother's property, and Li Yu certainly could not tolerate others' involvement.
Xiao Yi felt a little disappointed. What he wanted to hear was to let him take over the cooking, which was a daily income of gold. As long as he passed by him and missed it casually, it would be an amazing number.
Outside Jiangning City and above the ferry, Li Congshan looked back at Jiangning City standing in the cold wind, and didn't know when he would return.
"Prince, get on the boat." Dou Yi took out Feitian and snatched it lightly, put it in his cuff. He took a sip of it in this cold sky and took a sip. He was really better than a god.
Li Congshan felt sad inexplicably, as if he could never see the scenery of Jiangning again. He left too many memories here, and now he quietly came out.
There is not even a friend to send you to the city.
"If he were there, he would have come to see him off." Li Congshan murmured to himself, and suddenly remembered that he had first met with Sun Yu. At that time, he was still a white man, and he was already the hot King of Han. Now he is in the south, but he needs to go north to the Song Dynasty. Life and death are uncertain, and the encounters in life are full of unknowns.
"Let's go!" Li Congshan turned around and hid all his loneliness in his heart. He wanted to go to the Song Dynasty in the most perfect state and do his part for his motherland.
"Prince, I tell you that although this boat is not as good as the Winter Pavilion, it is quite generous." Dou Yi signaled Li Congshan to get on the ship first. The ship was specially prepared, and all the expenses were paid by the court. In order to achieve the national demeanor, Dou Yi naturally would not save money and packed the largest ship at the ferry.
Speaking of which, yesterday, Li Congshan specially invited Dou Yi to the Wenxiang Pavilion, and arranged the most beautiful woman to drink the best wine and live in the most luxurious room, allowing him to experience what the heaven and earth meant.
Dou Yi regarded himself as a Confucian child. If he received the other party's courtesy, he would naturally have to give back. Li Congshan saw this and went to Kaifeng to make a blind eye. If this person could help, he would definitely be able to live a lighter life.
Li Congshan, who was used to luxury, had no interest in the layout of the cabin and just sat down next to the charcoal furnace. The sealing of the cabin was very average. Even if he had made a lot of arrangements, he still couldn't stop the cold north wind, especially the moisture of the river water, which only penetrated into the human body.
Without having time to customize cotton clothes, Li Congshan went directly to Jianzhou Trading Company to buy dozens of finished products. In addition to wearing them himself, he could also give them to others. After all, it is a rare thing. Now he is wearing cotton clothes, and the mink cloak is wrapped tightly, which is quite warm.
"Prince, come and have some more wine." Dou Yi saw that when the prince went out, he brought a lot of boxes of all sizes, and Feitian wine must be indispensable.
"Come on, bring a pot of wine for Lord Dou." Li Yu shouted outside.
It was said that he was going north alone, but he still brought a lot of ordinary entourage guards, with more than a dozen people.
"Mr. Dou is self-deserving. I want to drink some hot tea." Li Congshan was not addicted to alcohol, and he didn't want to drown his sorrows by drinking. He just wanted to drink a cup of tea to warm his body.
"It's too boring to drink alone, so let's drink some tea with you first." Dou Yi put the wine in the cabin. Now it's not cold. The northwards, the colder it gets. Maybe the road is blocked with heavy snow on the road, so I keep the wine and drink it slowly.
The 50,000 elite reinforcements sent by the State of Nanyue were led by the Imperial Army General Luo Jixing, who was traveling to Fuzhou day and night. As a result, in Luoyuan County, he met a group of civil and military officials who fled to Fuzhou. When he learned of the loss of Fuzhou, Luo Jixing looked depressed and immediately prepared to ask someone to take down the Chief Secretary Lu Qian and the three generals and send them to Hangzhou to apologize.
"God General, please calm down. The general is willing to make meritorious contributions!" Deng Nian was shocked when he saw Luo Jixing being prepared to act seriously and quickly knelt down and beg for mercy. Now this person holds 50,000 elite soldiers and comes from a famous family in Hangzhou. No one asked him for reasons even if he killed himself.
"We are willing to make meritorious contributions!" A group of officials of all sizes knelt down and apologized. If they were sent to Hangzhou like this, they would probably not have a good ending.
"The civil servant can still stay and help me prepare the supplies, food and supplies. Humph! You and the three of you, as military generals, abandoned the city and fled. I did not set up your formation.
It is a kindness to behead this."
"Come here, take off the armor of the three of them and escort them to Hangzhou immediately."
If Luo Jixing let them go easily, wouldn’t he tell the soldiers below clearly that when the war is not going well, he can escape on his own? Then how can he lead the army to fight?
As for Lu Qian, he was originally an assistant officer, and he had no power to divide his troops. The lost city had little to do with him. Now that Fuzhou City has been lost, Luo Jixing decided to station in Luoyuan County first, pass all the news to the king in front of the emperor, waiting for the decision.
The 50,000 troops stationed here, and there were so many things to do when they needed to be processed. Luo Jixing could do this civil servant.
Looking at the three people dragged away like dead pigs, Lu Qian was so scared that his face turned pale and lowered his head without saying a word.
"Send scouts to Fuzhou to inquire about the news and keep an eye on the other party's movements. Lord Lu, follow me." How could a small county town in Luoyuan County accommodate 50,000 troops? Luo Jixing's army directly occupied favorable terrain on the hillside and used Luoyuan County in the rear as a base for food, supplies and supplies.
Luo Jixing was not that stupid when he rushed to the city of Fuzhou in this way. Although the South Yue Kingdom had basically never fought a war in recent years, Luo Jixing was also familiar with military books. For those who are generals, they should know themselves and their enemies.
Besides, the army was moving rapidly and the food and supplies were limited. I thought that Fuzhou was sufficient, but I was just busy marching. Now that Fuzhou was lost, everything had to be reconsidered.
"Sir Lu, sit!" After entering the tent, Luo Jixing hung his helmet and took off his armor with the help of his personal soldiers. The armor was too heavy. Luo Jixing had not been through the battle formation for many years and was quite uncomfortable wearing it.
"I thank you for the general." Lu Qian sat carefully on the stool, leaned forward, and seemed to look respectful as much as possible. He did not dare to offend this general.
"Tell me, let me talk about the war in Fuzhou in detail." Luo Jixing rubbed his temples. He had no idea what else he knew except for knowing that his opponent was Zhenhai Hou of the Zhong Yongjun of the Southern Tang Dynasty. He just rushed forward rashly. It probably wouldn't be a good ending.
"This time, Zhongyong is here, with an elite force of about 50,000, and there are also unlimited auxiliary troops. The most terrifying thing is that they still have thousands of cavalry. If there were enough troops, they would never fight against them. The late General Qian was rushed by the opponent's cavalry when he was preparing to cross the river to support the south bank, and attacked halfway, resulting in the defeat of the army. The elite troops of the Zhangwu army were destroyed." Lu Qian was very careful and to be honest as much as possible. He didn't know much about the other party, and he would not give the other party a chance to start a sudden attack anyway.
"The Loyal and Brave Army is so powerful? As far as I know, the elite troops stationed in Fuzhou are no less than 50,000. They are defending the city, occupying a good area and two of them, but they are defeated by a huge defeat?" Luo Jixing felt it was a bit difficult. Although the other party has fought one after another, they have taken advantage of the city after all, and these troops under him may not be enough.
"The Zhongyong Army has no less than 50% armor, and its swords and bows are sharp, especially its powerful crossbow. It is so powerful that Lu only saw it in his life." Lu Qian remembered that the Zhongyong Army broke through the outermost city. The soldiers of the Zhangwu Army, who had no city wall protection, fell down in pieces under the opponent's strong crossbow, like harvested wheat.
