Chapter 123: Dawn

Views:

Daliang faced off against the front lines of the two Western armies for a long time, and neither side refused to give in. There were countless battles, both big and small. Overall, they were basically evenly matched, and no one could do anything about the other.

On the 16th day of the first lunar month, a group of Daliang Haijiao battleships set off in the early morning and left the port unknowingly. Under the circumstance that the supplies had begun to tighten, they once again divided some of the men and horses and quietly went along the river.

At that time, before the dawn had risen, Shen Yi said to Gu Yun in the darkness, "It's too risky for you to do this."

Gu Yun ignored it, but said irrelevantly: "In the morning, let me cook a bowl of noodles for me, and I want to beat an egg."

Shen Yi was dizzy and inexplicable. It took him a long time to remember what day it was, and muttered, "You are quite leisurely."

He whispered a few words to the personal soldiers next to him, and then continued to babble: "I didn't say at least wait for the railway line to be repaired before, if the Ziliujin line is really opened, then our chances of winning will be better. It’s a lot bigger, you start now, if there is a little problem with the cooperation between the two sides, it will be too risky!”

"Seeking wealth and honor in danger," Gu Yun said without changing his face, "I am a man in full bloom, why should I be as cautious as the old man across from me?"

Shen Yi listened to him without saying anything, and said angrily, "Gu Zixi!"

Gu Yun sighed and glanced in the north direction. At this time, his eyesight was no longer able to penetrate thousands of mountains and rivers.

"Ji Ping," Gu Yun said in a low voice, "If the capital was smooth, we would have already been defeated without a fight. If you say that this battle is too risky, we should continue to let them drag it on until the end of the war. The middle-aged becomes a big adventurer?"

Shen Yi was stunned for a while, speechless. He was the general in charge of one side, so he only needed to arrange his troops, he didn't have to think about the layout of the four realms, and he didn't have to worry about whether there would be any military disasters in the fifty years before and after Da Liang.

"This time, we have to go to the next city before the Lord and Pai speak. Once we give them a chance to speak, I don't know when they will be dragged on, and they will be exhausted again and again. In three or five years, the nobles of Tianhuang in the northern capital will gradually heal their scars and forget the pain, and when our generation is dead, future generations will think that the southern half of the country was born to be governed by both sides," Gu Yun glanced at Shen Yi glanced at him and said, "It's worth taking a risk. I will leave you with the Black Iron Tiger Talisman. If you do, you will quickly gather the remaining troops. When you arrive, don't panic, and immediately dispatch the Black Iron Battalion for temporary support. Westerners are most capable of water, and there is nothing to fear on land, we still have room for manoeuvre."

Shen Yi's brows were about to wrinkle.

At this moment, the cooking soldiers brought the cooked noodles, and the people in the next bar cooked very carefully for Dashuai's small stove. The longevity noodles are one by one, the thickness is even, the eggs are cooked and tender, and the soup is soup meat. It is meat, and there are thin bamboo shoots soaked in broth floating in it.

Gu Yun took it and ate two chopsticks, and suddenly asked, "Why aren't there any green cabbage leaves?"

Shen Yi said, "Don't you want to eat?"

"When did I say I won't eat it?" Gu Yun muttered, took a few bites at will, but still felt that there was something missing in this bowl of noodles, he thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized.

It turns out that the so-called birthdays and festivals are actually just because of people. There is such a person who is willing to do a small "ceremony" for him on such a day.

The taste of it is actually hidden in the words under the noodle soup, not these few mouthfuls of food that are neither salty nor bland.

Five days later, Gu Yun officially received the list of the foreign affairs group, and after just glanced at it, he put it on Shen Yi, and said lightly: "See it, you can only prepare to do it."

Shen Yi had no other choice but to obey.

"Just in case, Ji Ping, I want to explain a few words to you - if there is anything wrong, you will sit in the army for me, and you will have the strength to fight foreigners on the ground, but remember not to go into the water, you have experience in water warfare. Too few, not the opponent of the old man." Gu Yun said, and took out four written letters from the handsome account, "If there is nothing wrong in general, send the first battle report to the capital, if destiny does not favor, we really If there is an accident, then send the second letter, and let the military aircraft department fully cooperate with the remedy. Don’t forget to attach a letter of guilt, stamped with the black iron tiger talisman, and I will bear the responsibility alone. The last two letters are private letters, and the third letter will be sent first. Give it to Chang Geng, keep him steady, and when the incident calms down, if there is a chance, you will give him the fourth seal."

Shen Yi said angrily, "Are you going to explain the funeral to me?"

"You're handsome because a few Western monkeys explained the funeral?" Gu Yun raised his eyebrows nonchalantly, "I'm so thoughtful, and it saves me having to write it again, the military orders are like mountains, don't talk nonsense with me here, get out of here. Go to work!"

The next night, the Daliang Navy suddenly attacked without warning and attacked the Western Army positions with great fanfare. Although the Western Army did not expect it, they still quickly organized a counterattack. As soon as they got started, they felt that the large number of naval forces this time were particularly fierce.

Mr. Ya directly approved the coat on the outside of the nightgown. In any case, he couldn't figure out what made Gu Yun suddenly want to break the stalemate on the front line. According to the news they got now, there should not be such an opportunity in Daliang.

This time, Gu Yun even skipped the routine testing process, as if he didn't care about the enemy's storage and allocation situation, he directly fired heavy artillery, and the "sea squid" shot out like raindrops. The side oars sank again, almost paralyzed.

The Western main ship was in chaos for a while.

"Don't panic, don't panic!" Mr. Ya grabbed a copper roar, "Everyone is on standby! The short Jiaojia immediately assembled to stop their majesty!"

The Pope slowly paced out, came to the deck and looked out with clairvoyance.

"Calm down," he ordered in a low voice.

The old leader seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts. With a single word, the messy crew and guards around him suddenly became quiet, waiting for him to give orders.

"The size of the opponent's forward ships is only a little more than half of the usual size. Such a powerful charge is not Gu Yun's style," the Pope whispered, "Why?"

Mr. Ya reluctantly suppressed his emotions: "Liang people are too crazy. I don't think they are charging, but they are the last fish to die and the net to break."

The Pope shook his head while asking the messengers to adjust the formation of the escort fleet: "This is illogical."

Mr. Ya frowned and thought for a long time, then suddenly said: "Right! I remember that His Majesty received a message from the enemy camp that the foreign affairs team was about to arrive at the front line a few days ago. Could it be related to that?"

Pope: "You mean that there is a rift in the domestic affairs of the Liang people, and someone wants to compromise to end the war?"

"There is evidence to support it," Mr. Ya said quickly, "You think, we have estimated the time when the Daliang train will be completed and opened to traffic. His Majesty also said at the time that after the entire line is completed, we will be very passive. We have not designed a few Is there a plan to destroy the line? But according to our calculations, this railway line should have been built by the end of last year anyway, and may even have started trial operation, but they have not made any movement so far, indicating that it is indeed internal There is a problem!"

The Pope clasped his hands on his chest and rubbed a finger against his chin slightly. At this moment, Gu Yun's forward had pierced the defense line of the Western warship like a sharp knife, and rushed through the waves with murderous aura.

The Western escort surrounded the main ship into a solid ball, and the stored eagle armor flew out from the main ship, and the attack like raindrops descended from above.

"If it were me," Mr. Ya said to himself, "I would back up the main ship, quickly create an encirclement, introduce the striker into it, and outflank and annihilate them. Their fierce artillery fire would never last long. If you cut off contact behind you, you will die here!"

The Pope asked quietly: "Do you think Gu Yun would make such a low-level mistake?"

Mr. Ya: ""

"Before going to the battlefield, the most important thing you have to do is to understand your opponents - give orders, shrink your wings, focus on defense, move to the southeast, and call in reinforcements immediately." The husband said, "If you have really studied the classic cases of Gu quelled the rebellion in the East China Sea and captured the mountain bandits in the southwest, and carefully reflected on the several times we made hands with him in the north, then you should have a good opinion of Gu Yun. A rough understanding is that when the resources in his hands are really at a disadvantage, not only will he not let you see it, but he will seamlessly pull the tidying up of the Black Iron Battalion in front of you, so that you can scare them. Liang people call this 'what is true, what is true is false'."

Mr. Ya disagreed, but he didn't dare to object, so he could only follow the Pope's voice and say, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Look, it's just a bait," the Pope laughed. "We'll be a little bit patient and drag his hook a little farther, and soon we'll be able to really see the chips in his hand."

At this moment, the messenger came to report: "Your Majesty, the first, second and third army fleets are not in port, they are on a 'far sea mission', you see."

The "Ocean Sea Mission" was specially designed to escort and receive supplies from the Holy Land.

The Pope didn't turn his head back and said, "They shouldn't have gone far, so they should be transferred back immediately. The 'Distant Sea' is very safe. It doesn't require three fleets to escort that bit of supplies. It is necessary to have respect and sincerity in dealing with dear old enemies."

"Yes!"

"Sail back! Fold the wings!"

"The escort fleet is adjusted to the southeast, pay attention to the speed-"

"Eagle! Temporarily withdraw. All the defensive steel plates of the main ship fell, and the drainage started-"

The entire Western Fleet quickly gathered into a tight behemoth. The material escort fleet that had just left the port returned quickly, staring at the Daliang Navy, which was rampant and fearless, forming a solid defense.

Every time it was Gu Yun walking the Westerners, but this time the situation suddenly changed, it became that the Westerners used heavy defenses to walk the frontman of the big beam around looking for a place to lower his mouth.

Two moments later, the mad dog-like forward army of Da Liang finally slowed down, apparently exhausted.

Pope: "Jacques, look."

His voice fell, and he saw a large number of support and supply fleets descending from three paths, and finally the trump card of Da Liang could not be hidden, and his hideous fangs were exposed in the night.

Mr. Ya was taken aback - if just as he said, he would immediately surround and eat the frontiers of the Liang people, then the sides of his side that lacked three fleets would immediately be stretched and weakened by the enemy, and would easily be pierced and torn apart by the ambushing Liang people. !

"As I said," the Pope gave him a slightly reproachful look, "you will only know where your real opportunities lie if you know your enemy—all the fleets ready to fight back! Give them a blow before they're 'steady'! "

As soon as he finished speaking, the Western artillery fire was pushed out like a tsunami. The main force of Daliang 3rd Road suffered heavy losses as soon as they faced each other. They didn't even have time to fire back a shot, and the front-end Haijiao battleships were already sunk one after another. .

At a glance, this time the effective supply almost wiped out nearly a quarter of the living force of the main force of the Daliang Navy.

The Western Naval Fleet was boiling. From the day when Gu Yun sat in Liangjiang, they had never gotten such a big deal from him!

However, Gu Yunren did not have the anger and burnout he imagined.

At this time, on an inconspicuous medium-sized sea eagle in the Daliang Navy, Gu Yun just watched a large number of his "battleships" being sunk, and said to the guard beside him without blinking an eyelid: "You Look, what am I talking about? Knowing yourself and the enemy, that old guy can prepare for a battle for more than ten years, so he must have studied me very carefully."

If it was daytime, Westerners would probably be more likely to discover the special features of those sunk ships.

The boats are all empty, more like another form of "sea squid".

This is still the sour and sour idea of the gang of Lingshu Academy - to gather the scrapped warships on the front line, and then imitate the power system of the sea squid to empty the entire ship. It can automatically slide a long distance on the water, although it is useless, but it is a powerful weapon to scare people.

Gu Yun dispatched part of the navy in his hand, and if he went directly to the battlefield, he would definitely be seen by foreigners and give rise to doubts, so he simply used this method to fake a shot.

"It would be better if they could be carried away by the temporary victory," Gu Yun sat on the side with Erlang's legs crossed. "Spread, remember, our task today is to hold back the enemy."

The personal soldier licked his lips: "Commander, can 'over there' catch up?"

"Then I don't dare to say that, if I can't catch up, I'm exhausted," Gu Yun laughed softly, "Pay attention to maneuvering."

On the Western main ship, Mr. Ya was overjoyed and fainted, but unfortunately there was His Majesty the Pope next to him, and he did not dare to get too carried away.

Moreover, he soon discovered that the unfavorable Daliang navy was not so easy to deal with. After Liang’s men lost their way, he quickly made adjustments. Gu Yun’s hob-like fighting style came forward again. People were so devastated that they turned this battle of annihilation, which was supposed to be a near-even match.

The main forces of the two armies were entangled from midnight to the next morning—

When the first ray of sunlight pierced the sea, the battlefield pattern that had been chaotically fighting in the dark for a night was suddenly exposed to sunlight.

On the main ship of Daliang, the personal soldiers said urgently: "Commander, there is no news over there, let's withdraw, if we continue like this, the position of the main ship will be exposed, we don't have their big iron monster that will not sink no matter how bombed, you Don't take risks!"

Gu Yun stretched out his hand and rubbed the frame of his glass mirror: "Don't be impatient."

At this moment, the Pope suddenly put the clairvoyance in his hand into Mr. Ya's hand: "That Wuyue! It must be the enemy's main ship, Gu Yun must be on it, take it down!"

The dense artillery fire was transferred with the Pope's order, and Gu Yun's main ship was unavoidable for a while.

Private soldier: "Master!"

In the blink of an eye, four or five short ships rushed out without Gu Yun's order, and stopped in front of the main ship with their own hulls, and immediately exploded into the ground.

Gu Yun's profile suddenly tensed. At this moment, a sailor stumbled in and barged in: "Master, we can't stand it anymore!"

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Big guy!"

"It's okay, don't panic, the back team will change to the front team, walk them for a while," Gu Yun ordered in a low voice, "From"

He didn't say a word, when suddenly, there was an eagle chirping in the air, the sound was as sharp as a siren, and even Gu Yun, who was half-deaf, could hear it.

Gu Yun turned around abruptly.

That was the code given to him by Shen Yi, the chief dispatcher on the shore—the other side succeeded!

The personal soldier was stunned for a moment, then jumped up: "Our eagle!"

Gu Yun: "Give me clairvoyance."

The soldier licked his chapped lips: "Master, we"

"Be careful!"

"Boom" -

At this moment, a stray bullet passed through the gap of the frigate and hit the rear of the main ship of the beam.

In the hustle and bustle, a glass mirror flew out and shattered cleanly.

On the 24th day of the first lunar month, the foreign affairs team that couldn't keep up with the heat had not yet arrived at the front line. Li Feng had already been woken up by the frontline expedited battle report in the middle of the night.

The signature of the Black Iron Tiger Talisman—Victory on the Frontline!

Gu Yun's layout in the past six months has begun to take shape. He does not know when he will send people to the South Ocean, secretly instigating a group of Nanyang Islands occupied by the Western Army, and ambushing a large part of the troops on the southwest border.

On the night of the 21st day of the first lunar month, the Daliang Shui Army used a part of its main force to raid the enemy on the frontal battlefield. Taking advantage of the cautiousness of the enemy generals, they contained the enemy's forces. At the same time, the Haijiao battleship group ambushed on the southwest border swept the Nanyang Islands. The inside should work together to annihilate the foreign forces entrenched here, and then immediately send troops to intercept the enemy's ocean-going supply line, unknowingly strangling the opponent's neck!

Who said that the dignified and powerful navy could not fight the battle of the distant sea

The battle report was very succinct, only the results were stated, and the details and casualties were not repeated.

After this battle, the Western Army retreated in embarrassment to the Dongying sea area, and militiamen from all over took the opportunity to launch an attack on the enemy on the ground.

Li Feng jumped to his feet, dressed in the middle of the night and called for a big court meeting.

The bastard foreign affairs team can beat foreigners back to their hometowns without taking away a single piece of dirt.

The servants circled around him. Since Zhu Xiaojiao died, the people around Li Feng have changed several times, but they are not very agreeable. At this time, the person who is waiting by his side is also an old man. Congratulations, Your Majesty, with Shuai Gu, the recovery of Jiangnan is just around the corner!"

Li Feng smiled "haha", and said almost incoherently: "I finally don't have to worry about being difficult to explain to my ancestors under Jiuquan, really."

Li Feng, who had been crippled for a long time, almost ran out with wind under his feet. He was halfway through. He was blown by the early morning night wind. Emperor Long An's feverish brain finally cooled down, and the joy on his face also dimmed a little.

Yes, the battle is won, and then what

Many of the decrees implemented by the Military Aircraft Department are under the banner of "putting war first". In addition to taking out Danshu iron coupons every day to sell the old to themselves, all major families just want to stop the war.

If Li Feng was a little hesitant in the battle against Hehe before, Gu Yun's victory added a lot of chips to one of them, which made Li Feng's heart slant to one side.

"These noble families are getting bigger and bigger, and they can even interfere in the war." The emperor thought silently, "What is the intention?"

Li Feng's footsteps paused, and he said to the servant in a dazed way, "Zhao Shi, my wet nurse, hasn't been to the palace for a few years. Do you still remember her?"

The maid didn't know why, so she lowered her head and replied, "I heard that Mrs. Zhao now has only one daughter under her knees, and she is still working as a clerk in the palace. She recognized Fang San Gongzi as her adopted son, and she frequently handed over signs a while ago. She must have come to intercede."

Li Feng let out a "uh" and half-drooped his eyes: "The prince broke the law, and he still shares the same crime as the common people. Back then, the King of Wei was still imprisoned, and no one came out to speak justice. Why are these people's sons more expensive than the other? "

The servant heard a bit of killing intent, and looked at Li Feng cautiously, not daring to say a word for a while.

The cold wind blew the sweat off Li Feng's forehead. He covered his chest and coughed a few times. The waiter hurriedly put a fox fur on him.

The prince looks old at the age of seven. He is still smart, but his personality is too docile and weak, not like himself, but more like the first emperor of Yuanhe.

Li Feng still remembers that the late emperor always felt that his name was not justified. He relied on this and relied on that, and even the military power was not in his hands. Even if there were only half-old children left in the Gu family, he still let that The terrifying black iron tiger talisman was circulated, and he had to ask for opinions on anything as big as chicken feathers. He spoke his feelings with tenderness at every turn.

Li Feng spent ten years, but still failed to clean up the mess left by the late emperor.

In the past two years, Li Feng felt more and more powerless, and he did not want his son to fall into the dilemma of his father.

But in this situation, who should he trust

King Yan

King Yan's words like "not marrying a wife", "not having children", and "willing to die for the country" are all his own words. There are many better words in the world than these words. Those chaotic ministers and thieves are still crying when the evidence is conclusive. With a runny nose, he said that he was dedicated to serving the country and the people. Although Li Feng could be moved by him for a while, he could always calm down after a long time.

Li Feng is protecting Chang Geng now because he also sees the value of this reform. King Yan is right on one point: systems and rules are the most important things. No matter what King Yan wants to change, this is riddled with holes. The Sheji is indeed developing for the better. Li Feng hopes to use the hands of King Yan to completely remove the Shen Wei from the previous dynasty, and leave a Qingming world for the prince in the future.

However, at the same time, he would never hand over his weak son to the decisive younger brother. If he wanted to follow the late emperor one day, the first person he would take care of would be King Yan, and the second would be King Yan. Gu Yun.

"Don't go, go back to the palace, call again tomorrow morning, wait for dawn, you can ask the prince to come over." Li Feng suddenly instructed without thinking.

The inner servant was inexplicable. He didn't know that he was still talking about the Zhao family, why the emperor was silent for a while and then brought it up to the prince.

"Also," Li Feng said again, "Where's the booklet I brought back? Let me see it."

The memorial was written by Xu Ling. Regarding a charter for reforming Guozixue, the idea was not very mature, even a little immature, but it didn't matter, it could be left to the military to coordinate and be kind. The whole dynasty was clamoring for killing people and beheading them and punishing the imperial examinations. Fraud, and only a few scholars can still think of the future.

If possible, Li Feng is also like an ordinary father, hoping to give his young son a few more years of shelter, and let him play with grass and insects in the harem, but who knows what will happen in this era of turbulent meeting

In the early morning of the next day, the news of the Great Victory on the Liangjiang Fronts came crashing down, and all the forces had not had time to react to the sudden result.

For the first time, Li Feng clearly implemented two new policies at the Congress: First, he agreed to the "Long'an New Policy" of the Military Aircraft Department on abolishing the beacon ticket and changing the coinage policy.

Second, in principle, it is agreed that Xu Ling and others of the two houses jointly request the reform of the constitution of the Guozixue, and the Department of Military Aircraft will take the lead and the Ministry of Rites Guozijian will coordinate with the two academies to revise it.

At the same time, Li Feng took out Jiang Chong and the Lingshu Academy together in the main hall and reprimanded them, and demanded that the investigation of the fraud cases in the nine provinces be accelerated immediately. Immediately drawing up regulations to open the steam railway line from the capital to Jiangnan, there must be no room for Westerners to breathe, and this victory cannot be wasted. They must win it all at once.

When he was about to go to court, Li Feng announced his final decision-the eleven-year-old prince was about to go to court.
