Wuhu.

Battleships pass the river.

On the deck of the largest gunboat, Dong Yu, the military officer of the Hongguang dynasty, looked at the ancient city on the shore and the Yijiangkou that was about to pass with complicated eyes.

Countless people there are silently watching them.

There were even cries faintly...

"The remaining people's tears are gone in the dust, and I look south at the King's Army for another year!"

A sarcastic voice suddenly came.

"Duke Kuo'an, I wonder how many years the King of Kings will let the remnants look west when he is gone, or will he never return from now on, causing the remnants to cry in the dust?"

The voice said.

Dong Yu silently turned his head to look at Tang Xianzu.

The playwright Tang is also wearing military uniforms. The top playwright has become a general now, which makes people sigh that the world is impermanent.

However, in this special time when mountains and rivers are broken, I can only put down my pen for the time being.

Although the world is big, I can no longer put a quiet desk.

"Why did Brother Hai Ruo say this? Brother Hai Ruo has soldiers and generals. If you don't want to retreat, then go to face the enemy. Can you destroy Yang Yao here with a sarcastic aura? It's just that the elders of Jiangxi have exhausted their financial resources and raised the 15,000 Chang'an army. If there is any loss or even destruction, I wonder why Brother Hai Ruo will treat the elders of Jiangxi?"

An aide beside Dong Yu said dissatisfiedly.

"Supporting troops is to kill the enemy. What is the reason for fear of loss? Now that the enemy is close, the 200,000 troops flee without fighting, you are not ashamed? What's more, Xiong Feibai is still fighting fiercely with the enemy. Isn't it unjust for us to abandon him and escape?"

Tang Xianzu said angrily.

Well, they're really just running away.

Dong Yu is not stupid. He has a 150,000 army of 200,000, and is all based on the supply of the Yangtze River behind. He needs to consume countless supplies every day. As long as the Yangtze River is broken for less than half a month, the entire army will collapse. No matter whether Yang Feng is alone or not, he dare not bet. Yang Feng does seem to be less than 10,000 people going deep into the army alone, but this demon is like a demonic atmosphere and is like a madman. Sheep turn into a jackal. Ten thousand people are just the main army of the Red Turban Army. Who knows how many militias he is following, let alone even the main army of the Red Turban Army has never lost!

He swept across the west bank of Taihu Lake from Danyang, and wasn’t he just carrying 10,000 Red Turban Army?

Isn’t Liu Yuanlin’s 100,000 troops destroyed the enemy in a blink of an eye?

Although Dong Yu believes that his subordinates are not those bad guys, it cannot be said that they are foolproof, not to mention that the main force of Yang Feng’s subordinates is Yang Feng.

Qi Jin, Mao Guoqi, Chen Yan and Deng Zilong confronted him in Nanjing.

There is also Zhu Wenda in Jiangbei.

There is also the first cavalry town in Nanjing.

It's okay if he can wipe out Yang Feng in a short time. If he slows down a little, he should join him.

It’s a fool to not run away!

Not only do you have to run.

And you must make a quick decision to run away as quickly as possible.

If Xiong Tingbi was defeated, Yang Feng would attack Wuhu directly, and the Wuhu gentry promised to open the door for him immediately and then lock the Yangtze River in Wuhu.

There is no need to fight the rest, and it will collapse after half a month.

So what about a 150,000 army?

That's 150,000 mouths, it would be strange if you don't have food to break down!

"Since that's the case, Hairuo will take a cooperative to pick up Feibai, and will go west later. I will wait in Chizhou."

Dong Yu said slowly.

It is indeed a bit embarrassing to abandon Xiong Tingbi.

The key is that Xiong Tingbi's subordinates are Huguang Provincial Army. As a member of the Jiangxi Division, he abandoned others like this and was easily misunderstood for intentional purposes. After all, the struggle between the Hubei Party and the Gan Party was also very fierce during this period. If Tang Xianzu brought thousands of people to rescue him, and then it was Jiangxi Provincial Army who rescued the Huguang Provincial Army and could not be rescued and destroyed together, it was Jiangxi Provincial Army who lived and died together to save the Huguang Provincial Army...

No matter how you calculate it, it is all brilliant.

Moreover, Tang Xianzu was Zou Yuanbiao's confidant, and he had already had a disagreement with Zou Yuanbiao.

The Gan Party is also divided into factions. Zou Yuanbiao is the leader of Qingliu. He is famous and has a close friend with Hongguang's Sili Supervisor, so he became the chief assistant. Dong Yu's seniority is higher than him and his official position is higher than him, but he can only suffer outside.

I was very dissatisfied.

Before, because of the ingenuity of the imperial court, no one cared about the mess.

But now as the situation in Hongguang Dynasty is temporarily stable, the internal contradictions have begun to become fierce. After all, the stable situation means that power is more valuable and worth fighting for. In short, for Governor Dong, giving Tang Xianzu thousands of people to rescue Xiong Tingbi is definitely a wonderful move. The result is not important. Since Tang Xianzu led his troops to rescue, Governor Dong had already won...

Tang Xianzu looked at him silently.

"Duke Kuan, I am the Lord of the Lord!"

He said.

After saying that, he waved to the riverside with indignation.

He was not stupid, of course he understood that Dong Yu just asked him to die, but as a person with a little conscience, he really couldn't sit idly by and watch Xiong Tingbi be abandoned like this.

A slightly smaller warship immediately leaned over, and then the two warships fell sail to the side. Tang Xianzu got on the warship with high ambition. Then, with his order, the warship waved its flag, and dozens of warships carrying soldiers immediately followed it to the mouth of the Yijiang River, and then began to dock at the dock. Then a three thousand Chang'an army accompanied them to the shore, heading straight to the Bay 50 miles away along the main road, and some artillery soldiers loaded the cannons on the requisitioned boats and followed along the Qingyi River.

Dong Yu watched their departure silently.

Then the warship he was riding passed through Yijiangkou under the north wind.

Countless warships carrying more than 100,000 troops behind him followed him through Yijiangkou. Countless officers and soldiers on the deck were looking at Tang Xianzu who was leaving with a fool.

They arrived in Port Lu soon.

Then turn west.

"Mr. Kuo'an, there is Magpie's tail in front of him. Will you stay in the Three Mountains tonight?"

The staff asked.

At this time, their speed was already very slow.

They went upstream and could only rely on wind and oars, but it was winter again. The lateral north wind was difficult to make the warships going upstream faster. They were heading south west before, but after turning to Lu Port, it was right west, and the speed immediately dropped. In front of them was the Sanshan Inspection Office. At this time, the south bank of the Yangtze River was the Sanshan area, and the large area of ​​land north of the modern Sanshan was actually built after the founding of the People's Republic of China. At this time, they were just Shazhou and shallows. The main channel of the south bank was only one near Sanshan in the winter.

This main channel starts from the Three Mountains, goes westward and reaches Datong almost 80 kilometers, and is called Quejiang alone.

The Magpie Head Mountain in Datong is the Magpie Head, and the three mountains are the Magpie Tail.

These eighty kilometers are a must-fight for military strategists.

From the Battle of Que'an in Chu and Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period, to the Battle of Dingjiazhou where Jia Sidao fled, to the tug-of-war between the Hunan Army and the Taiping Army.

All this part.

Even the Battle of Crossing the River will have a battle here.

"No need, you can't stop until you arrive at Digang!"

Dong Yu said.

This is running away.

There is no safety in Digang.

You should know that his army of more than 100,000 was storming dozens of miles on the Yangtze River. At this time, the team might not be able to pass Bowang Mountain. When he arrived at Digang, the team could probably pass Wuhu.

"Quickly, send the order, you must not stop until Digang!"

The staff member shouted.

The flag above their heads immediately issued an order to accelerate.

Countless warships that almost blocked the waterway formed a spectacular scene with sails and slowly flowing up the vast river. Soon Dong Yu's ship had already arrived at Sanshan.

This is a patrol department, with a very small city facing the Yangtze River, and then a bunch of hills are protected from left and right. The highest of which is called Sanhua Mountain. The hill on the left is adjacent to the Yangtze River, with an altitude of 40 meters and close to the patrol city. From here, it enters the 80-mile Que River. The north side of the river is less than one kilometer wide, there are complex waterways separated by countless sandbanks and shallows. The dry reeds in winter seem like a vast maze.

"What is that?"

Dong Yu looked at the hill.

The staff member widened his eyes and looked there. The distance was more than one mile and he couldn't see clearly.

"It's probably a mountain temple."

He said uncertainly.

"Find someone familiar with this place."

Dong Yu said.

Just as he said this, a fire flashed there, and then smoke rose.

"enemy!"

The staff member screamed.

The next moment, a sharp roar suddenly passed, and at the same time, the broken wood splashed on the warship next to them, and a gap made by a shell suddenly appeared. Before they could react, flames erupted on the wall of the Sanshan Inspection City nearest, and countless shells roared and landed among them. One of the battleships hit their feet was not very powerful, but it instantly made a gap on the deck. The broken wood ejected like a shotgun, and Dong Yu screamed and fell to the ground.

And the mountain was filled with smoke, and more shells came roaring.

Immediately afterwards, a red flag was raised on the Sanshan Inspection City, and the special symbol on it showed their identities...

"Mr. Dong, Mr. Yang has been waiting for a long time. Speaking of which, Xiong Tingbi is still fighting bloody battles with my subordinates. Your commander actually fled with more than 100,000 troops. Isn't it a bit unauthorized to do this? Poor Xiong Tingbi is still waiting for you to reinforce and encircle me in the Wanqi. Now there is no need to be so troublesome. I'm here to find you myself. You are also your old minister. Your Majesty also said that he misses you quite a bit. Let me take your head back so he can see you!"

Then a voice came faintly.

"Retreat, retreat, retreat to Wuhu!"

Dong Yucai was not interested in ignoring him, and the Governor General lay on the deck and howled in horror.

However, just as he turned his head, he was stunned for a moment, because at this time, a large area of ​​black smoke was obviously rising in the sky to the east.

"Lu Mingjiang, it's Lu Mingjiang!"

The staff exclaimed.

There is one of the Luming River in the Qingyi River. Qingyi River divides the Shiji River into the upper reaches of the Bay, and then flows into the Xiaohuai River. Then it is called the Luming River entering the Yangtze River, which is the origin of the name of Lu Port, but what are these thick smokes...

"Fireship, they ambushed the fireship, they want to use the fireship to cut off our fleet!"

The staff explained Governor Dong's doubts in a trembling voice.
Chapter completed!
