Near the city of Jiangling, which was called the "Jingchu Pass" in ancient times, across the river, in front of the bridge on the south bank where the flag of the official army had been planted; a group of men and horses also stopped temporarily in the mist that was gradually dissipating along the river.
"Everyone is working hard... From this moment on, we are the loyal soldiers of the yellow head..."
The Rebel Captain Zhu Jian, who led the riding on the horse, shouted loudly while carefully examining these specially selected, tall, sturdy, sturdy and sturdy soldiers; he pointed out the details of their outfits one by one. And action.
"Give me the arrogant, domineering and unremarkable aura... but we have won the battle and made a contribution. We went to ask for rewards and supplies; besides the Shannan Jiedu, what else is worthy of you? In the eyes..."
"If someone dares to ask you not to have a good face, I will answer it myself..."
He is one of the few people from Chenzhou Wanqiu in the Rebel Army. In his father and grandfather, he was a small school for the united children of the State Army, so he is not unfamiliar with the predecessor of the Zhongwu Army. It was just because his father died in a Yacheng Army Transformation but failed to inherit the world position, his family was broken and he became a bandit; he was trapped into the rebel army and became a small leader;
Zhu Cun, who was born in Songzhou, was half a township party and the same clan, and he was able to serve under his command, becoming one of the few remaining lieutenants of the Guogan Army. Now he joined the Taiping Army and got this rare opportunity. Opportunities to show your face and express your own worth.
And you must know that most of the children of the Zhongwu Army today are from Chen and Xu; therefore, it is not too difficult for him to pretend to be from the local accent and language.
"Those who come to stop, please negotiate with customs and submit to the past..."
The Xiaozhai post, which was obviously newly built across the bridge crossing, was upstairs. Soon there was a loud shout of being alarmed.
"A bastard who doesn't have eyes, why don't my loyal loyalists want anything to guard and pass..."
Zhu Jian, who was wearing a black mountain inscription and a flying cloud pocket on his head, immediately furiously said.
"Hurry up and let go of the thoroughfare, is it true that your grandpa's swords and guns are good for you..."
There was a little chaos and commotion in the small village, and then after a while, it slowly opened the door of the horizontal wooden nail row, and straightforwardly made an inviting attitude. Zhu Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, trying to recall the arrogant appearance of those dental soldiers he saw when he was a child, while riding his horse proudly without squinting.
Then, after a moment of fierce screams and screams, the Xiaozhai at the ferry crossing, where there were only more than a hundred people stationed, easily changed hands. So, Zhu Jian, who made persistent efforts, brought new supplements and replacement manpower non-stop, and stepped onto the river floating bridge leading to the opposite bank.
Half a day later,
"Now there is a good news, a bad news... which one do you want to hear first..."
Zhou Huaian faced the dozens of generals who had been ordered to gather on the big ship that was temporarily reorganized along the estuary.
Among them, a dozen new faces, headed by Zhu Cun, have joined in one after another on the move, and they seem to be much more restrained or prudent than Zhou Huaian's other subordinates. Others simply squinted their lips tightly and communicated with their eyes, seemingly determined to be a thorough bystander without saying a word.
"Regardless of good or bad, please let the leader show me... I'll just wait and follow my orders..."
In the end, there were still some anxious Shui Junlang generals Wang Zhongba, who spoke first.
"Well, let me tell you the good news first..."
Zhou Huaian nodded slightly
"Previously, the squadron, which pretended to be the loyal military soldiers, has already taken the intact bridge crossing to Jiangbei, and successively pulled all the gates and fortifications, and reached the outside of the west city of Jiangling... During the period, the officers and soldiers appeared to be quite lax and slack. No defense... it seems like there is a lot to do."
"What about the bad news..."
It was Wang Zhong who seemed to be more anxious and overbearing.
"The bad news is that most of the camps set up by the officers and soldiers outside the city have been abandoned, leaving only some intersections and temporary checkpoints to be rushed..."
Zhou Huaian continued with a heavy tone.
"Could it be...Could it be...this Jiangling city..."
Wang Zhongba's face became more and more ugly, and his tone became difficult.
"Yes, the flags of the officers and soldiers on all sides of the city nowadays..."
Zhou Huaian finally threw out this somewhat cruel fact.
"I've already made people think about getting into the city to explore, but it will be sooner or later for the enemy to react..."
"So, I just want to ask everyone what they mean, whether it is necessary to continue the attack in this battle... Let's retire Yuezhou for the time being and then make plans..."
"Goodness..."
"Never..."
"Please consider the long-term plan..."
This somewhat unexpected result seemed to stir up thousands of waves with a single stone, and suddenly caused an uproar among the generals and officials present.
The final result of the discussion, except for the few opinions that are good, accept and be safe; the opinions of most of the subordinates are still relatively positive and enterprising: as the saying goes, since the road to Gangneung is so all the way, of course they must not fail to encounter the enemy. The situation is easy to retreat;
At least take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and ignorance, to make a big deal or let the officers and soldiers eat a big loss, hit and severely inflict the enemy's vigor and momentum; let them know the truth. The army's interests and being shocked can make it possible for the other party to be jealous and not dare to underestimate it, or even act rashly during the subsequent return of the class.
"Well, since it is the consensus of the public, then all will be deployed to prepare for war."
Zhou Huaian also announced immediately.
"Subsequently, the participating team will pass the affiliation of each battalion, regiment, brigade, and forward the corresponding task strategy and specific clauses to the generals at all levels.. I also ask you to work together to teach the officers and soldiers a vicious lesson. Reminiscence painfully..."
"Wish to follow the leader to sweep the demonic atmosphere and recreate the peace of the world..."
"Tianbu averages, rebuilds peace..."
"Vengeance and shame for the dead brothers of the rebels..."
Suddenly, an enthusiastic and jagged response sounded in the cabin that served as the military account.
Wang Zhongba, full of thoughts, returned to his water legion, a five-hundred-year-old Dajiang ship, and saw someone eagerly leaning over and saying:
"Jiantou, what should I say now..."
They were all the surviving old navy brothers who came out of the general tie at the beginning, and everyone has an urgently worried shape and expression.
"Get the brothers ready, we are going to fight, and fight the official dog fiercely,"
Wang Zhongba couldn't help but sighed heavily.
"It's just that the official dog has already occupied the head of the general. I am afraid that there is no extra hope for the old uncle and Cao Shishi..."
"what.."
"how so.."
"What should I do..."
Suddenly, there was a panic, and some people yelled out on the spot angrily.
"If it weren't for too long on the road, how could it be..."
"Asshole, is this still human..."
However, Wang Zhongba furiously became furious, and the person who hadn't kept his hands slapped and slapped the stranger back, and fell to the ground like a spinning top and couldn't get up for a while.
"The virtual leader has done everything to us. You don't remember what you want to do.. Isn't it that we followed the blood and sweat to fight this way.. It is not the brothers of the rebels who died and wounded? How could it have been delayed there..."
"At the time when all the people under the General's Mansion refused to pay attention to the siege of Jiangling, it was the old uncle who reported in case that I made a special trip to ask for the great kindness of Guangfu who came to rescue Jiangling. You are ungrateful. Things... and where did you hear such nonsense..."
Speaking of this, Wang Zhongba sternly stared at the old man sitting on the ground.
"Don't tell me that it is your own idea.. Forgive your kid for not having this kind of whimsical thoughts.. Who actually said this?"
"It's from Jiangzhou in the east... I'm a fellow of the Valiant Army..."
The subordinate who was kneeling on the ground quickly explained.
"People also kindly said that if there is something wrong with Jiangling's side, don't expect the people in Guangfu to continue to work hard, or take an early transfer back to the military office... At least there is still a place for you. "
"Is it possible that you also think like this..."
Wang Zhongba's face slowly sank involuntarily, and he ignored him and turned to face the other subordinates. Of course, most people are both annoyed and at a loss, or they don't know why; only the few people who came close to this subordinate quickly avoided his gaze with some guilty conscience.
"This is really..."
After understanding their answers, at this moment Wang Zhongba only felt strangely resentful and unwilling, and a little frustrated;
These people in the General's Mansion used to talk to themselves with their arms, claiming to be the brothers of the rebel army, and the brothers short. Then things came to an end, but they would just sit back and watch the privacy tactics of picking up the bargain and splitting the family after the fall of Jiangling. Is this the old brother of the rebel army who vowed to share the good fortune and the injustice
In contrast, the person who frankly said that Jiangling has some particularly important interests with him is really not to be missed; therefore, the leader of Guangfu, who has led his troops to rescue from the battle without saying anything, is undoubtedly upright and upright. Extremely. Thinking of this, the last bit of unwillingness and grudge that he was forced to serve for the other party for five years at the beginning has completely disappeared from the bottom of my heart.
At least the reason for the delay in the reinforcements is mainly due to the mistake of chasing the enemy without permission under Tanzhou City; but even so, the other party can still do the same thing regardless of the previous suspicion, without changing the original intention and itinerary of rescuing Jiangling. . On the contrary, I am willing to give myself a chance to compensate and redeem; it is totally different from those who will only fall into trouble, and then come to pretend to dig the wall.
Just aiming at this point, he also had to make plans for the future of himself and his brothers after losing his foundation and affiliation. Maybe it would be a good choice to settle down in Lingwai in the future, but this requires him and his subordinates to have enough performance to reflect their own value and usefulness.
"Everyone listened to me,"
He told himself so, and once again sternly spoke to these subordinates.
"In the next war, we will all work hard and do our best to perform well... If anyone who dares to rap, slip, keep his hands and retreat, there is no need to deal with it afterwards. I will kill him on the spot. A..."
"This is not only my request to everyone, but also for the sake of our future and future..."
As for the black sheep who have obviously given birth to alienation, he no longer intends to stay or learn from the magnanimous leader, so that he can gather and give away gifts, so he can directly watch their performance on the battlefield to solve the problem. It's good. (End of this chapter)
