Lord of the House

Jiahe Anti-blockage, located in the middle reaches of Shanxi River, was washed away by floods twice. Although it did not collapse as a whole, it was also dilapidated. A large section of the river bank on the inside was washed away, and the river water was directly immersed at the foot of the plug wall, which also looked like an old man's teeth.

Although the time for the open water to impact both sides of the lake is very short, a large area of ​​waterlogging is formed in the low terrain on both sides.

Standing on the southeastern city wall of Jiahe Anti-blockage, looking around, there are large areas of flooded land around, like a swamp.

The roads near the river were washed away by the flood, and there were large areas of waterlogging. Although the slopes on the two wings were not flooded by the flood, the forests were deep in the mountains, and it was difficult for the army to pass.

The main force of the Huaidong Army in Guanxiling wanted to catch up with the remnants of the Zhejiang and Fujian Army who fled westward. There were not enough warships to travel by water, so they could only wade across the flooded land with their legs.

At this time, in the vicinity of Chenjiaao on the west bank, more than 10,000 Huaidong soldiers and horses were passing through the flooded land from the slope.

Ao Canghai hung his combat boots around his neck, rolled his trousers to his knees, stepped on the muddy ground with his bare feet, and did not ride a horse.

This submerged land has been explored by the outpost, and the flooding is not deep, and the deepest part can only be submerged to the thigh. Bamboo poles and branches are used to mark the forward route along the road, but as more and more front soldiers and horses pass by After that, the dirt road submerged by shallow water became more and more muddy.

Step on it with one foot and sink into the mud, and it often takes a long time to pull it out and take the second step.

Ao Canghai, a brave general with such a physique, was sweating profusely and panting after walking for a long time. He looked back and only walked five or six miles away.

From the northern section of Chenjia'ao to the mouth of the river where Shanxi flows into the Xinjiang River, there is still more than 30 miles of submerged land to travel - such a long and rotten road, it is despairing to think about.

The only thing that is gratifying is that the morale of the generals chasing north is high, and they are not intimidated by the current difficulties. All along the road are shouting chanting songs, the sound is resonating Yunxiao.

Several horses came chasing from the back road, and they could not interfere with the marching queue. The horses could only gallop through the shallow water that covered their stomachs, causing large water splashes along the road to catch up with Ao Canghai, who was in the middle of the queue.

The number of cavalry galloping was wearing a maroon suit and armor, and they were the stalwarts beside Lin Fu.

It was only Lin Fu who sent someone over to urge them to catch up with the Shefei Bears who were fleeing westward from the southern bank of the Xinjiang River as soon as possible. Ao Canghai could only wait with a wry smile.

Huaidong generals, whoever wants to cut off She Feixiong’s subordinates and annihilate them will be more urgent than Ao Canghai who exterminates the She family. Out of a heart as still as still water, I now know that I can't overwork the army and drive it too much.

It is a problem to catch up with the enemy. After catching up, there is still room to fight against the remnants of the fleeing enemy - Ao Canghai said to Zhang Gou next to him: "If the lord can give each of us a pair of wings, then we can All right……"

"How can there be such a beautiful thing, doesn't the luxury flying bear in front of us want to put on a pair of wings and fly out?" Zhang Gou said with a smile.

Although it was hard to trudge through the flooded land in front of them, compared to She Feixiong who fled for his life in embarrassment at the front, they also took the pain for joy.

Ao Canghai and Zhang Gou walked to a **** higher than the water to rest, and waited for the battalion's attendant to ride over to see what the latest instructions were sent by Lin Fu.

"General Ao, the Lord is coming from behind to join you, General Ao please take a step back!" The small school who was chasing after him on horseback was Zhao Mengxiong, the younger brother of Zhao Hu.

When he was in Jiangning, Zhao Mengxiong was still an ignorant child, but now he is also a well-known brave general in the Huaidong Army.

"Oh, the lord also ran to the front to join in the fun?" Zhang Gou asked suspiciously.

Zhao Mengxiong said: "I don't know this!"

The terrain they were standing on was not high. Looking south, they couldn't see where Lin Fu was chasing, but from the south, the noise was louder for a while, and they knew that Lin Fu was passing there, which excited the morale of the soldiers. water boils.

After waiting for a while, Lin Fu, Zhou Pu and dozens of cavalry chased from behind.

Lin Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead and jumped off the horse. He supported Ao Canghai, Zhang Gou and the others who wanted to salute, and said with a smile, "It's hard to walk on horseback, it's really hard for you!"

It is not like riding a horse on the flat ground, chasing it on the water, and the horse is tired and tired. Lin Fu and Zhou Pu are both people who have been working hard all year round. It is so hard to ride a horse.

Ao Canghai said, "The heads of the enemy troops are like familiar crops waiting for us to rush over to harvest them, so we won't feel the pain!"

"Both pain and pleasure," Zhang Gou said.

"Zong Ting has arrived in Shangrao, and it is not a problem to defend Shangrao," Lin Fu sat down on a stone mill that came from nowhere, and invited Ao Canghai, Zhou Pu, Zhang Gou and others to sit down at will, and said, "We The timing of the attack was better than expected. Except that Deng Yu's troops were likely to collide with Chen Zhe in Huating, Wang Hui and other enemy generals were hesitant and stagnant in Qingxi. A better news! What do you think?"

Ao Canghai asked his army staff to unfold the map and lay it on the semi-dry **** to accurately identify the main forces of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army on the map. Before that, the key points along the Xinjiang River were also identified on the map It is clearly marked with a red pen.

Zhang Gou's eyes lit up, and he asked, "My lord, did you mean that after Chen Zhu defeated Deng Yu's troops, he would spare the remaining enemies on the north bank and turn to the south bank to intercept She Feixiong?"

Lin Fu looked at Ao Canghai.

Among the generals of Zhejiang and Fujian on the eastern front, the first person Ao Canghai killed was undoubtedly She Feixiong, but he would not let his personal hatred drown his reason. She Feixiong has only more than 10,000 troops on the southern bank of the Xinjiang River, while the Zhejiang-Fujian Army has more than 30,000 main forces on the northern bank.

Ao Canghai asked: "After Chen Zu defeated Deng Yu's troops and did not guard Huating, the remnants of the enemy on the north bank are most likely to flee northward from Huating Stream to Yongshan and Leping territory. Are there any brothers from Qiao Zhong and Yu's family? Do you want to take the first step to take down Yongshan?"

As long as the Jiangdong advance army takes Yongshan one step first, it can once again block the way for the remnants of the Zhejiang-Fujian army to flee northward.

Right now, Lin Fu was worried that the remnants of the Zhejiang-Fujian army's eastern line would flee north to Jiangzhou, where they would join the main force of the Jiangzhou army led by Shewenzhuang. If the remnants of the east line of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army did not go north along the Huating River, but continued down the Xinjiang River and fled to Ganzhou or Yuzhang via Fuzhou, then the main force of the Huaidong Army would have enough time to catch up to Ganzhou or Yuzhang. Encircle the remnants of the enemy army; if there is enough time, the main force of the water camp in Luzhou will be transferred to the west of Jiangzhou to participate in the war.

"I can give it a try," Zhang Gou said. "The situation in Shangrao is developing very fast. I am afraid that Su Tingzhan has not woken up in Fuliang. The interception of the line will not cause much impact. Even if the Jiangxi troops and horses have trouble conquering Yongshan City in a hurry, as long as they take the first step to block the road on the south side of Yongshan, they can block the remnants of the north fleeing for three to five days..." Speaking of this, Zhang Gou was strangely excited.

Compared to defeating the enemy, annihilating most of the enemy is undoubtedly a better result; compared to annihilating most of the enemy, it is undoubtedly more exciting to completely wipe out the eastern front of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army.

"Zong Ting is in Shangrao, and has already sent people north to contact Qiao Zhong and Wen Cheng, who are heading south from Qimen to block the enemy," Lin Fu said, "The next step is to see if we can go fast enough! If you walk on the northern route, you should be able to reach the mouth of the Shanxi River tonight, but the nearly 20-mile road on the north bank of the Xinjiang River has been washed away, so it will not be easier to walk here."

"Beheading She Feixiong, this life will not be shaken!" Ao Canghai said, "Please, my lord, supervise the battle here, I will go to the front to lead the troops at night, and strive to walk across the flooded land before tomorrow morning!"

"Okay!" Lin Fu said. She Feixiong fled along Jiangxi, all under the surveillance of Huaidong warships, and could not play any tricks. As long as they spread their feet and chase, they are not afraid that She Feixiong has the ability to hit the carbine.

There is no perfect strategy in the world. Build a dam to cut off the river to scare the enemy back; and then release the water to open the river, so that Chen Zi's troops can take a boat and travel quickly by water to outflank the enemy. At this point, the Huaidong Army can be said to have already To master the absolute advantage, but to turn the advantage into a real record of annihilating the enemy, the main force of the Huaidong Army in Guanxi Ridge, Tongkou and Litang must quickly catch up with the enemy and be surrounded and annihilated.

Huaidong's main force in the direction of Guanxiling has to go north to pursue the enemy, and it has become the most difficult problem at present to pass through the flooded land with a depth of forty or fifty miles.

It has always been a long time to travel down the river, but slow when going upstream. Maybe it would only take a day to go down the river from Taohua Pass to Huating, but if the fleet wants to go upstream from Huating and return to Taohua Pass, it will take a long time. Three or four times the time.

Can't wait for the fleet to return, the main force can only trek across the flooded land and catch up with the fleeing enemy.

*****************

From ancient times to the present, all the tactics of war have been concentrated on one point in the final analysis~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is "to divide the enemy and make oneself united", and all strategies must do everything possible to achieve this goal in the final analysis.

In the early stage of the Shangrao War, She Feixiong concentrated on using limited forces at key passes, filling the 50,000-60,000-strong Zhejiang-Fujian army into each section of the Shangrao line of defense and defending against danger.

Even if the Huaidong Army has an advantage in combat equipment and troops, if it wants to completely destroy the Shangrao defense line of the Zhejiang and Fujian Army in a short period of time, it will inevitably pay a heavy price.

Lin Fu wanted the Huaidong Army to open Guanxiling Road first, that is, to attract the main force of the Zhejiang and Fujian Army to the south of Hengshan, and build a dam to cut off the river, and also use all means to remove the main force of the Zhejiang and Fujian Army from the peripheral defense line of Shangrao. scared away.

In the later period, She Feixiong was forced to choose to use the narrow passage on both sides of the Xinjiang River to delay the Huaidong Army's entry into Jiangxi, which was actually what Lin Fu wanted. Only at this moment will the main force of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army's eastern line abandon the front line of defense and retreat to the cities along the Xinjiang River, which will also be scattered on its long westward withdrawal road, giving the Huaidong Army "destruction, division and annihilation." the" opportunity.

At this time, including She Feixiong himself leading the troops after the breakup, the Zhejiang-Fujian army's eastern front troops were scattered on both sides of the Xinjiang River, and they could not care for each other. At this time, for the Huaidong Army, the most important thing at present is no longer to break the Shangrao line of defense of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army or defeat the main force of the Zhejiang-Fujian Army's eastern line, but to intercept and encircle as many as possible. Soldiers and horses.

In one fell swoop, several legs of the luxury family were discounted, making them unable to get up again.
