Chapter 521: escape

Views:

Looking at the water village in the distance, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi, who were dressed as ordinary fishermen, also had anxious expressions. Liu Yi looked at the water village checkpoint that had been blocked on the tributary of the Gan River and asked anxiously: "Wang Kuang, what should we do next? Shall we go ahead?"

"No." Wang Kuang immediately denied Liu Yi's proposal, and said in a deep voice: "With the two of us, we can only go to death by breaking into the water village. It seems that we have to leave the waterway and go by land."

"Land?" Liu Yi couldn't help but frowned. In fact, they discussed this proposal at the beginning, but in the end it was rejected. If you travel by land, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi are just two people, and it is indeed easier to get confused. But in this way, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi were completely separated from Zhao Guang's army.

Having sacrificed Li Qian, neither Wang Kuang nor Liu Yi could sit back and watch Zhao Guang and others get trapped in Wugong Mountain. They wanted to join Zhao Guang and kill them together. This is also the main reason why Wang Kuang and Liu Yi have to venture away from the Ganjiang tributary these days.

Knowing what Liu Yi was thinking, Wang Kuang sighed and said: "I don't want to do this either, but the problem right now is that if we don't go overland, we won't be able to get through the water village in front of us. Otherwise, let's go first. Go ashore and bypass this water village south of Wugong Mountain. After this area, we will find a way to get a boat and continue down the Ganjiang tributary. How?" After thinking for a long time, Wang Kuang could only figure it out. Such an approach.

This can be regarded as a no-brainer, and Liu Yi had to listen to Wang Kuang's words to do it. The two quietly docked the boat, and one jumped on the shore, and disappeared into the woods on the shore in a blink of an eye.

Although Zhao Jun did not relax the search on the other side, compared to the river surface of the Ganjiang tributary, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi had to escape the search by the Zhao Jun generals, and it seemed much easier. After only half a day, the two easily bypassed the water village south of Wugong Mountain, looked back at the water village standing on the surface of the river, and the two nodded to each other.

The next thing to do is to find a way to get a boat. On this tributary of the Gan River, there is not much, only this boat. However, in order not to attract Zhao Jun's attention, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi decided to proceed carefully.

The two waited on the shore for a long time and waited until it was dark. Then they saw the target, but it was a small boat that had just docked on the shore. On the surface, the boat is very simple, but this is exactly what Wang Kuang and Liu Yi need. Such a ship traveling on the surface of the river would certainly not attract Zhao Jun's attention.

The two made a gesture to each other and dived into the river from both sides of the boat. At this moment, on the boat, a man in a poncho was standing on the bow of the boat, seeming to be dozing off. After nearly a stick of incense, Wang Kuang, who had already dived to the bow of the ship, slowly poked his head out of the river, his eyes were fixed on the man in the clothes directly above, he saw the timing, and suddenly moved up. Flick, one hand directly grabbed the other's collar.

The man in the clothes had only time to let out an exclamation, and was dragged into the river by Wang Kuang. At the same time, Liu Yi also jumped up, jumped up from the stern, and rushed directly into the cabin. What surprised Liu Yi was that there was still one person in the cabin, and he was still a soldier in armor.

"Drink." Without any hesitation, Liu Yi directly rushed towards the soldier, and the soldier was obviously not weak, and he drew his sword and fought with Liu Yi. At the same time, in the water, Wang Kuang also started a battle with the man in the dress, and the man's underwater skills were not much worse than that of Wang Kuang.

After Wang Kuang and the man in the lion clothes wrestled for a few rounds underwater, they couldn't hold their breath anymore. They both surfaced at the same time and took a deep breath. Wang Kuang raised his old fist again and was about to move towards the lion clothes. The man waved away. At this time, the hat on the head of the man in the blouse had also fallen off. Under the moonlight, a square face was revealed. Looking at this face, Wang Kuang couldn’t shake his fist anyway, staring. Big eyes exclaimed: "Xuan Yi. Why are you?"

It turned out that the man in the clothes was no one else, but Li Xuanyi, general Liu Guangda who left with Zhao Guang before. At this moment, Li Xuanyi also looked at Wang Kuang in astonishment, and repeatedly shouted: "Wang Kuang! Are you? You have escaped from the Nanshan cottage."

At this time, there were two exclamations from the ship. Then, two figures ran to the ship's side together, one was Liu Yi, and the other was Bai Xi, a general under Liu Guang's account. Bai Xi shouted in surprise: "Oh my God! I thought you all died in the Nanshan cottage, but I didn't expect you all to escape. Thank God."

Under the leadership of Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi found Zhao Guangda's army. What Wang Kuang and Liu Yi did not expect was that Zhao Guang's army was not on the tributary of the Ganjiang River, but hiding on a hill on the north bank of the tributary of the Ganjiang River. After seeing Zhao Guang in the tent stationed in the military camp, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh. They had never expected that they would be able to meet Zhao Guang alive.

After some etiquette, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi talked about the process of the Nanshan Mountain Village battle and their experience after they escaped from the Nanshan Mountain Village. After listening to the words of the two, Zhao Guang, Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi were silent. Both Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi were full of sorrows, sad for Li Qianzhan's death, and Zhao Guang even more blaming himself. Look.

He sighed: "Oh! I'm all to blame for this thing. I'm all too arrogant. I always think that my unexpected plan will be successfully implemented. Alas! This makes me go back to see the lord and the generals."

Seeing Zhao Guang blaming himself so, Wang Kuang quickly persuaded: "Marshal. You can't be blamed for this. It can only be said that the plot is in the hands of the people, and the success is in the sky." Not only Wang Kuang, Li Xuanyi and others also persuaded. Zhao Guang’s strategy is already perfect, but he doesn’t know which link went wrong. It’s really no wonder Zhao Guang.

"Oh!" Although Wang Kuang and the others were so comforted, Zhao Guang obviously couldn't let go. He sighed and said to Wang Kuang and Liu Yi: "According to my plan, as long as the young master can break through the Wugong mountain city, it will definitely happen. Influencing the entire Wugong Mountain defense line, Zhao Jun, who attacked the Nanshan Mountain Village, had to bypass the Nanshan Mountain Village and go to rescue. I am ambushing halfway and I will be able to win. But I never expected that Ding Xi would not have won the plan. In turn defeated the young master."

"After I got the news, I wanted to go to rescue the Nanshan Mountain Village, but it was already too late. When we arrived at the Nanshan Mountain Village, the Nanshan Mountain Village had already been breached. For this reason, I had to lead the army to retreat first. It's just Ganjiang. The tributaries were already blocked by the Wugong Mountains and Rivers, so I ordered all the ships to be burned down, and the army set off by land and returned to the officers and soldiers."

Li Xuanyi went on to say: "It's also because of your coincidence that Bai Xi and I went to patrol, and we ran into you two. If we come to play for some time, the handsome will take us out of here and go north."

Hearing what Zhao Guang and Li Xuanyi said, Wang Kuang and Liu Yi also shouted a fluke. They didn't expect Zhao Guang to be so decisive. There were hundreds of military ships that even burned. However, Zhao Guang did the right choice. Starting from the waterway, it was difficult for Zhao Guang to fly his wings, but if he went overland, it would not be impossible for Wugong Mountain to be in such a chaotic situation.

Now that he has joined with Zhao Guangdajun, it doesn’t make any sense to stay in Wugong Mountain anymore. Wang Kuang hesitated for a moment and asked, “Marshal, next, shall we return to Nanchang or Linjiang Army like this? ?"

Zhao Guang smiled bitterly. Although he was unwilling in his heart, Zhao Guang had to admit that Zhao Guang had completely failed this time in Wugong Mountain's plan. Not only wasted a lot of soldiers and horses, but also caught the life of veteran Li Qian. It can be said that Liu Guang really suffered a great loss in using troops against Wugongshan this time.

Since he is defeated, he must get out as soon as possible. Zhao Guang is not the kind of person who can't afford to let go. If he continues to spend time with Zhao Jun in Wugong Mountain and waits for Zhao Jun to relax, then it will be troublesome. Maybe all of Zhao Guang's men and horses will have to confess to Wugong Mountain.

Therefore, Zhao Guang could only nod his head and said helplessly, "Yes. We are going to leave here. Uh, after returning this time, I will bear the responsibility for the defeat. Your lord will not blame you. "

"How can this work?" When Zhao Guang said this, Li Xuanyi and others immediately shouted, Bai Xi clasped a fist to Zhao Guang and shouted: "Dashuai. This time the failure, the fault did not belong to Dashuai alone. Back then. When the commander proposed this plan, we all agreed, and when the commander carried out the plan, he did not make any mistakes. The reason for the defeat can only be because of God's will. How can the commander alone bear the blame? No, absolutely not."

"I am the commander of the army this time. This time the army loses its troops and loses its generals. I should bear the responsibility." Zhao Guang shook his head firmly and said to everyone: "You don't need to talk about it. I'm thinking about this. It has been decided. When I return to Nanchang, I will plead guilty to the adults."

Li Xuanyi and others continued to dissuade him several times, but Zhao Guang was determined to bear the responsibility of this defeat, no matter how the generals persuaded them, it would not work. Finally, Zhao Guang looked up outside the tent. Before he knew it, it was dawn. Zhao Guang nodded and said, "Okay, don't mention this matter. It's dawn now, let's set off immediately. Returning to the Linjiang Army as soon as possible can be regarded as getting out of danger as soon as possible."

Zhao Guang said so, and Li Xuanyi and the others were naturally helpless, but they all made up their minds secretly. After returning to the officers and soldiers, Zhao Guang would never let Zhao Guang bear the responsibility alone. If the adults want to punish Zhao Guang, then they must also share the blame for Zhao Guang.

In the autumn of the first year of Shaoxing, after the Southern Song Emperor Zhao Gou entrusted the rebels to the world, the South also entered a short period of peace. In the Jiangling occupied by the king of Xin Zhao Zhen, it was a peaceful scene. The residence of King Xin Wang Zhaozhen is arranged in the most prosperous center of Gangneung. Although King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen himself does not like that kind of luxurious mansion very much, in order to match the status of King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen Jiedu, the Jiedu Imperial Mansion is still very luxurious.

The letter king Zhao Zhen is walking away from the inner courtyard. There have been a lot of things in the past few days, especially after the military information about Liu Guangqi’s invasion of Wugong Mountain was sent to the letter king Zhao Zhen a few days ago. The letter king Zhao Zhen has been able to foresee that the south, which seems to have been silent for a few days, will finally be lively again. This is exactly what Xin Wang Zhao Zhen hopes for. Now Jin Bing has let himself and the marshals hit the bottom, and Qi now only occupies parts of Henan, Shandong, and Hebei, and is also very weak.

Going straight to the study, Wang Jin, the soldier leader of King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen, was already waiting at the door of the study early. When he saw King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen coming, Wang Fen hugged his fist to King Xin Wang Zhao Zhen and said: "Your Highness, Master Yao has been waiting in the study for a long time. ."

"Yeah." Xinwang Zhao Zhen nodded and walked straight into the study. At this time, Yao Da was sitting on the chair in the study, closing his eyes and resting. Seeing the king of letter Zhao Zhen came in, Yao Da quickly got up and saluted the king of letter Zhao Zhen.

The letter king Zhao Zhen waved his hand and signaled that Yao Da didn't need to be polite. Then he walked directly to his seat and sat down, and said to Yao Da who was standing upright: "Yao Da, what news is there on Wugong Mountain?"

Yao Da also knows that Xin Wang Zhao Zhen is very concerned about this matter now, and he came this time, it is precisely for this matter, immediately Yao Da said to Xin Wang Zhao Zhen: "Return to Sir, the information just received, Liu Tong's army They have retreated to Runan. The reinforcements have also been stationed in Wugong Mountain for rescue. They joined forces with General Shan Hongfei’s Zhao Jiayi Army and General Wang Zongshi’s naval forces to encircle Wugong Mountain. The Liu Guangshui Army who invaded Wugong Mountain is to be encircled.

"Okay." When Xin Wang Zhao Zhen heard the news, he smiled and nodded. Before receiving news that Liu Guang had invaded Wugong Mountain, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen was very annoyed. Especially after learning that Wang Lao had died in World War II, Xin Wang Zhao Zhen could hardly wish to bring a soldier and horse to Nanchang to avenge Wang Lao Er.

However, it is certainly impossible for Xin Wang Zhao Zhen to be so impulsive, but her heart is always difficult to calm. Now that the war in Wugong Mountain is over, Liu Guang's soldiers and horses are defeated, especially the Liu Guangshui army who killed the second king has been trapped in Wugong Mountain. The believer Zhao Zhen is naturally very happy.

However, Yao Da poured a bucket of cold water on Xin Wang Zhao Zhen at this time. Yao Da said in a deep voice to Xin Wang Zhao Zhen: "My lord. According to the analysis of his subordinates, I am afraid that Shan Hongfei and the others will not be able to catch this Liu Guangshui army. "

"Uh." Xin Wang Zhao Zhen couldn't help but was taken aback, but he also knew that Yao Da was definitely not the kind of person with no targets, so he quickly asked: "How come? It's not that Shan Hongfei, Wang Zongshi and General Zhong joined forces to encircle him. Is that Liu Guangshui army? Not to mention, just relying on Wang Zongshi's Wugong landscape army to block the tributaries of the Gan River, then Liu Guangshui army has no way to retreat. Why can't it be caught? Huh, Oops! If their master is shrewd, they will go overland."

When Yao Da heard this, he smiled and nodded and said: "His Royal Highness declares. Based on the observation of this Liu Guangshui Army's marching route and this invasion of Wugong Mountain, the subordinates also concluded that the commander of this Liu Guangshui Army is definitely one. No less famous than Master Ji and Master Fu, they are top wise generals. It can be seen that this Liu Guangshui army cannot be judged by common sense."

"If his subordinates have guessed well, this Liu Guangshui army is facing the encirclement and suppression of Shan Hongfei and the others, and will definitely choose to take a path that Shan Hongfei and the others could not think of, to avoid the besieged by Shan Hongfei and the others. Shan Hongfei Although they have many soldiers and horses, but the Wugong Mountain is so big and adjacent to the Linjiang Army, if the opponent wants to escape desperately, it is not difficult."

"From the very beginning, this Liu Guang navy army invaded Wugong Mountain from the waterway, and at the same time planted an idea for Shan Hongfei and the others. Then their navy army cannot do without water at all, and can only leave Wugong along the water Mountain. His subordinates guessed that before this Liu Guangshui army invaded Wugong Mountain, it had already made plans to escape from Wugong Mountain by land."

"Forget it." The letter king Zhao Zhen waved his hand. If you can't catch it, you won't be able to catch it. Anyway, if Zhao Guang wants to escape, he won't be able to escape. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the letter king Zhao Zhen, and he said in a deep voice: "Since Liu Guang dared to provoke the soldiers, it seems that I have been silent for too long. It is time to meet this old friend. Yao Da, use Zhao Jiayijun. The spy department conveyed my order. Passed on Fu Xuan, Ji Qianqian, Elder Wu, Shan Hongfei, Guan Tianxia, Wang Zongshi, Xie Xiaogui, and Ding Xi back to Jiangling."
