Chapter 516

Outside Chao County, the Liang army camp sounded the horn of assembly, and nearly 60,000 Liang army soldiers quickly left the camp and assembled on the edge of Chaohu Lake.

In Chaohu, a large fleet of more than 1,500 sampans, fishing boats and bamboo rafts gathered at the pier.

Gao Huan was wearing golden painted fish scale armor, wearing a six-sacred helmet, riding a jade flower patrol, and patrolling the Liang army majestic.

At this time, Gao Huan finished reviewing the team and stopped the horses in front of the formation, and spoke loudly: "Soldiers! Last year, the Tartars invaded the south, broke into the river and irrigated the east of Henan, and then plundered the two Huai Rivers and killed our people. At that time, when our Daliang soldiers and civilians were fighting against the Tartars, the left thieves in Wuchang did not help us Daliang fight against the Hu barbarians, but instead recognized the thief as their father, raised troops to stab us back, and seized our Jiangnan!"

The Liang army soldiers remembered the tragic situation of the elders of their hometown when the Qing army invaded, the difficulties they had made in advance into the Yellow River Flood, and the desperate struggle during the Shuanggouji War. After listening to Gao Huan's words, they couldn't help but feel indignant.

Daliang resisted the barbarians, but Zuo Liangyu sneaked into their rear. The Liang soldiers all held their weapons tightly and their eyes were filled with anger.

Gao Huan continued to say loudly: "Jiangnan is my place where I pay taxes in Daliang. The left thief took away Jiangnan, and robbed the money and grain rewards of my Daliang soldiers and the wealth of the soldiers! Zuo Liangyu took away Jiangnan. His Zuozhen soldiers were eating delicious food and drinking spicy food in Jiangnan, so that my Daliang soldiers could eat braised vegetables. The soldiers said what to do?"

Gao Huan first pointed out from a moral point of view that Zuo Liangyu was betrayal, and then used the vital interests of the Liang army soldiers to continue to arouse the morale of the Liang army soldiers.

"Cross the Yangtze River and destroy the left thieves!" Li Pingyuan immediately raised his arms and shouted.

"Cross the Yangtze River and destroy the left thieves!" When the sixty thousand soldiers heard the words, they immediately raised their weapons and shouted, and their voices went straight to the sky.

When the Liang army was fighting with the Qing army, sneak attacks behind the scenes were already hateful enough. After hearing Gao Huan's words, the Liang army soldiers understood the reason why the food had dropped recently and no meat was found, and immediately became even more angry.

Gao Huan glanced at the military formation, felt the indignation of the Liang army soldiers, nodded with satisfaction, and then shouted and waved, "Go!"

With a command, the horn sounded, and 60,000 Liang troops immediately took action, 20,000 troops boarded the warship, and 40,000 troops pushed the baggage and rode their war horses to advance south along the Ruxu River.

For a moment, ships in the Ruxu water blocked the river, and the army on the shore was walking in a mighty manner, and the team stretched for dozens of miles.

~~~~~~

Since the Fu Lu dispute and Zuo Liangyu has eaten turtles in Gao Huan's hands, he has maintained a relatively good relationship with Gao Huan, but he has always thought that he could avenge a single arrow.

This time, taking advantage of the Liang Qing dispute, Zuo Liangyu suddenly sent troops to occupy Jiangnan, which was considered to have avenged the last time he retreated to Wuchang in shame.

At this time, Zuo Liangyu formed a formation on the south bank that Gao Huan especially liked. The generals lined up along the Yangtze River, digging fortifications to build the earth wall, and posing as a defensive posture.

Since ancient times, I have never been a military expert and dared not set up such a formation, because it is easy to be pinched and break through in the middle, and end up being divided and surrounded, and the entire army is gone.

Zuo Liangyu made such a formation, but was not because he used troops like a god, but because he had no choice.

The Liang army gathered in Yangzhou, and the left army had to guard against the Liang army crossing the river. The hundreds of miles of river bank near Zhenjiang needed to station large troops.

Although the Zuojun had 200,000, the formation was still pulled into a noodle.

The war was about to break out. In order to find out when the Liang army was preparing to cross the river, Jin Shenghuan had to take a boat to the river every day, use a thousand-mile mirror to observe the north shore, and investigate the movements of the Liang army.

In mid-September, the weather in Jiangnan became colder, and there were no Liang Jun’s dog paddles.

However, Liang Jun still carried out a crossing exercise and set up many rafts to solve the problem of insufficient ferries. It seemed that he had made up his mind to cross the river from Guazhou.

If you know where Liang's army crosses the river, it will be easier to do next.

In Zhenjiang City, in the temporary hall, there was a sand table in the middle. Jin Shenghuan and a group of Left Army generals, as well as Zheng army naval generals, stood proudly around the sand table, pointing out the country.

At this time, outside the hall, the guards suddenly shouted: "The king is here!"

Zuo Liangyu came in from outside surrounded by guards and laughed: "What's the situation on the other side?"

Many generals in the lobby saluted quickly: "See the king!"

Jin Shenghuan said: "Report to the king, Liang's army has conducted a river crossing exercise on the north bank and has set up a lot of rafts. It seems that they are preparing to cross the river and hit us soon."

Zuo Liangyu nodded when he heard this, looked at Zheng Hongkui, the general of Zheng army, and said, "General Zheng! Gao Huan is going to cross the river from Yangzhou. Are you sure you can intercept it?"

Zheng Hongkui clasped his fists and said loudly: "Report to King Wuchang, when our Fujian Yue army is preparing to take a half-ferry, we will use warships to hit the Liang army's boat, which will make Gao Huan's dilemma. Not to mention that all Gao Huan's fishing boats can be sunk, at least half of them can be eliminated. Of course, some fish that escaped the net rushed to the south bank, and they will have to rely on the river bank of the left army soldiers to defend."

"Haha~" Zuo Liangyu laughed at the sound, "The fish that escapes the net will be handed over to me!"

After speaking, Zuo Liangyu sneered again: "Last time, Gao Huan took some advantage. Gao Huan really thought that I, Lao Zuo, was easy to bully, and wanted to take advantage of me! He defeated Dorgon, but instead turned around and hit me Lao Zuo. This time, I will fight head-on. If Gao Huan crosses the river, I will follow his surname!"

Jin Shenghuan interrogated: "The arrogant army will be defeated. Gao Huan thought that if he defeated Dorgon, he would be invincible in the world, but he did not know that the water was completely different from that on land. His Liang army was elite on land, but in rivers, lakes and seas, he was not the opponent of our Southern Army. This time Gao Huan was going to suffer a loss, and tens of thousands of elite Liang army soldiers were going to feed fish and shrimps."

Zuo Liangyu deeply agreed and sneered: "Gao Huan could have been the domineering of the Central Plains, but he was not satisfied and insisted on coming to fight me. Now he can only be Fu Jian."

Everyone laughed when they heard the words, as if they had transformed into an elite of the Northern Palace.

At this time, everyone laughed, and Zuo Liangyu immediately said, "This time Gao Huan failed to cross the river, and his elite troops were all lost. I will definitely send troops north to capture the two Huai Rivers. On the one hand, I will defend the rivers and on the other hand, let Gao Huan know the price of offending me, Zuo Liangyu."

When Jin Shenghuan and others heard the words, they immediately clasped their fists, "The king is wise!"

Zuo Liangyu was about to laugh when suddenly a man stumbled in and said in panic: "Report! King! Warehouse smoke!"

When Zuo Liangyu heard the words, his face darkened, and then he shouted, "Okay! Gao Huan crossed the river! I will hit me head-on and expose the style of my Zuo Town."

The visitor pointed to the west and was almost crying. He gasped and shouted: "The king is not Yangzhou, but the beacon smoke from the west. Liang army crossed the river from the upstream!"

"What?" Zuo Liangyu's face changed drastically. He hurriedly rushed out of the festival hall and looked west. Sure enough, he saw black smoke rising from the west like a relay.

Seeing this, Zuo Liangyu's face instantly became bloody and red. He shook his body a few times, and suddenly spewed out two taels of old blood. He fell back straight, pulling the many left generals who were stunned to the senses and quickly supported him.

"King! Stay calm! King!"
