Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Liangzhe Road was the area with the highest level of economic development and the richest economy in the Zhao and Song Dynasties. A large part of the huge expenditures of Kaifeng, the capital of the Zhao and Song Dynasties, and the huge expenditures of the royal family, clan, nobles, officials, and the imperial army came from these two roads. Therefore, these two roads have always been called the "Southeast Finance of the Zhao and Song Dynasties." "Fu District" was also the economic lifeline of the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

Therefore, the Zhao and Song Dynasties stationed an elite imperial army near Hangzhou, the center of the Liangzhe Road.

This elite forbidden army was well-equipped and trained regularly. Compared with the rebels who only had simple weapons and no armor, they seemed to have an absolute advantage, even though the number of rebels was dozens of times theirs.

At least this is what Cai Zun and Yan Tan, the commanders of this elite imperial army, think so.

Cai Zun and Yan Tan, who were ordered to Qingxi County to wipe out the rebel base camp, thought they had found a perfect opportunity to massacre the villagers and claim credit.

Along the way, the elite forbidden troops led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan never encountered any resistance. Occasionally, there were groups of suspected rebels. After seeing the elite forbidden troops led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan, they stayed far away. They were so frightened that they dispersed, which seemed to confirm Cai Zun and Yan Tan's judgment on the situation of coming to Qingxi County to suppress the rebels.

On the evening of November 22, the elite imperial troops led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan successfully arrived at Wannian Town, more than 60 miles west of Qingxi County.

This place is very close to Bangyuan Cave, the base camp of Fangla Rebel Army.

The five thousand elite forbidden troops, exhausted from the long journey, are preparing to set up camp in Wannian Town, bury pots and make rice, and then attack Bangyuan Cave tomorrow to wipe out the group of Fang La rebels who dared to rebel in one fell swoop.

But as soon as the five thousand elite forbidden troops stopped, there was a sudden burst of shouts, and then a rebel army of tens of thousands of horses appeared in front of them.

Seeing this, Cai Zun and Yan Tan immediately gave up their camp and ordered the entire army to attack.

Seeing the officers and soldiers coming in full force, the rebels were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.

Seeing this, the five thousand elite forbidden troops pursued them even more vigorously.

After chasing him all the way to the pit, Yan Tan felt that there was a strong Yin energy in the pit and the situation seemed to be a little bad.

Yan Tan was just about to discuss with Cai Zun not to pursue him any further, so as not to fall into the trap of the rebels. Suddenly, all the rebels they had been following suddenly stopped and then turned their guns.

Seeing this, Cai Zun also realized that something was wrong.

While Cai Zun and Yan Tan were hesitating, suddenly there were shouts of killing, and then countless torches on the mountain made the river turn red.

Cai Zun and Yan Tan knew they had been tricked and urgently ordered their troops to retreat!

But it's too late!

——They have fallen into the trap of the Fang La Rebel Army!

The drums are beating!

Countless Fang La rebels wearing various turbans, accompanied by the sound of cheering drums, poured into the rest pit from all directions.

Immediately afterwards, countless rebels suddenly appeared around the pit. Under the leadership of the Manichaeans, they chanted loudly: "Burn my broken body in a blazing fire. Life is so joyful, and death is so painful. To eliminate evil for good, only Because of the light. Joy and sorrow all return to the dust. Have pity on my people, there are many sorrows. Have pity on my people, there are many sorrows..."

Fang Jie, Deng Yuanjue, Wang Yin, Bao Daoyi, Du Wei, Li Tianrun, Zheng Biao, Liu Yun...

Fang La's generals all came out.

The Fang La rebel army again used the tactics of Manichaeism that had been passed down for hundreds of years - the human sea tactic.

There is no suspense in this battle.

To be honest, Fang Layi's army won this battle without any luck, it was all based on strength.

They used a series of strategies such as arrogance, luring the enemy deep, waiting for work, and using the night to greatly reduce the power of the Song army's sharp long-range weapons. Moreover, Fang La's rebel army also equipped the soldiers and armor given to them by Jiang Hongfei, and defeated the enemy. The Song army, which many military strategists feared, was too normal.

Anyone who has seen the entire process of this battle must say that there are experts in Fang La's rebel army, and this battle was really good.

Fang La and other members of Fang La's rebel army were also quite proud. They felt that they were right to fight steadily and spend more than a month training the team. Otherwise, how could they achieve a great victory and annihilate the five thousand invading elite Forbidden Army?

After annihilating the 5,000 elite forbidden troops led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan, Fang La determined that the Song army was gone, and immediately led 20,000 rebel troops to attack Qingxi County.

Chen Guang and other officials, landlords, and gentry in Qingxi heard from those who had returned that the five thousand elite forbidden troops led by Cai Zun and Yan Tan had been wiped out by Fang La's rebels, and they immediately hurried out of the city to escape.

Fang La easily invaded Qingxi County.

Just when Fang La and the others captured all the officials in Qingxi County who did not escape in time, cut off their limbs, explored their lungs and intestines, boiled them with anointing oil, or shot them to death with random arrows, retaliating and celebrating, suddenly Someone came from Hangzhou to vote for Fang La and said to Fang La: "The Saint has captured Hangzhou at the beginning of the month. The situation of our uprising is very good. The overthrow of the Song Dynasty is just around the corner!"

"??????????"

This person's inadvertent words made Fang La and Fang La's men, who were still venting their resentment, stop their carnival and were stunned!

what's the situation?

Their Fang La rebel army had only captured a county town, but Jiang Hongfei had already captured Hangzhou, the political, economic, and cultural center of the Zhao and Song Dynasty in the southeast?

How can this be? ! ! !

Soon, more and more news came from Hangzhou or other places.

Only then did Fang La and the others realize that Jiang Hongfei had not only defeated Hangzhou. In the past month while they were training the team, Jiang Hongfei set out from Jiangzhou and successively defeated Chizhou, Wuwei Army, Xuanzhou, Guangde Army, and Huzhou. , at the beginning of this month, defeated Hangzhou in one fell swoop.

Fang La and others are going crazy!

Jiang Yan, what on earth are you going to do? !

Fang La was even more crazy: "Damn it, after you finish the beating, what will I eat?!!!"

Fang La and the others felt that Jiang Hongfei had taken over the spotlight.

No.

This is not the scariest thing.

Fang La and the others were very afraid that Jiang Hongfei would occupy the magpie's nest and take advantage of the situation to occupy the southeast.

If this is the case, then Fang La and the others are undoubtedly luring the wolf into the house.

The key is, if things really develop like this, where will Fang La and the others go? Their years of hard work might be in vain, right?

Fang La and the others didn't care about celebrating anymore.

Fang La even gave the order overnight: Eastern March, quick, Eastern March! ! !

…

Set the time back to the end of October.

After the capture of Huzhou, Jiang Hongfei arranged for good people to stand in for the people who acted for Heaven as usual, and then ordered the formation of the Five Zhennan Army based on the Huzhou heroes under Lu Xing'er and some of the Zhennan Army's meritorious personnel.

However, Jiang Hongfei did not wait for the formation of the Zhennan Five Army before he personally led the army to Hangzhou.

The southeast is beautiful, the three Wu cities, Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times!

This is a sentence from a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty praising Hangzhou.

It is true that Hangzhou, with its beautiful mountains and rivers, picturesque scenery and outstanding people, has always been the capital of the Zhejiang Road in the Zhao and Song Dynasties and the political, economic and cultural center of the southeast.

Countless big bureaucrats, big landowners, and big businessmen all regarded the city of Hangzhou as their gold-selling cave and comfortable home, and they gathered here one after another to enjoy themselves.

The powerful and powerful people were not only obsessed with this place during their lifetime, but even after their death, they wanted to be buried in Hangzhou, where "the first Qiantang was built, extremely majestic". For example, Cai Jing, the prime minister of the Zhao and Song Dynasty who once had one person more than ten thousand people, buried his father. Here it is.

Therefore, Hangzhou City was almost the second richest city in the Zhao and Song Dynasties after Bianliang City in Tokyo.

The terrain of Hangzhou slopes from northwest to southeast. It is surrounded by mountains on the north, west and south sides, forming a horseshoe-shaped barrier to the southeast. The northwest is full of steep mountains and deep ravines; the southeast is hills and wide valleys with flat terrain, making it a natural terrain. Defend a difficult place.

In order to ensure that this rich city was more impregnable, the Zhao and Song dynasties spent nearly two hundred years on the basis of the former city of Hangzhou, starting from Qinwang Mountain, from Jiajiang River to the east, from the Genjiang River to Qiantang Lake, Huoshan, Fanpu, and seventy miles around. The indestructible outer city of Hangzhou was built.

There are thousands of elite soldiers and generals in the city and mountains of food and grass.

These are enough to ensure that the city of Hangzhou can stand still and wait for help for a long time.

However, the current top leader in Hangzhou, Hangzhou Magistrate Zhao Ting, is a timid man. He feels that the uprising in front of his home is unusual, so he does not dare to defend Hangzhou.

But on the other hand, Zhao Ting was afraid that the Zhao and Song court would hold him responsible for abandoning the city and fleeing.

Therefore, Zhao Ting wanted to burn the millions of stone grain and grass in Hangzhou City, saying euphemistically: "The ant thieves are so powerful that they are invincible. We should destroy all the grain and grass in Hangzhou and clear the fields with strong walls. If there are many ant thieves, we will not be able to defeat them." With the support of food and grass, we will leave without a fight. When the time comes, we will return to Hangzhou to clean up the mess, and we can defeat the bandits without a fight."

Chen Jian, the Zhizhi envoy, and Zhao Yue, the integrity envoy, did not agree with Zhao Ting's idea.

You know, local officials like them have the responsibility to protect the territory.

yes.

If things really go as Zhao Ting imagined, if they can wear out the rebels and recover Hangzhou, they may have merit without fault.

But if they fail to exhaust the rebels, they will be severely punished by the court if they abandon the city and flee.

Moreover, there are not only three to five thousand soldiers in Hangzhou who can fight, but also hundreds of thousands of people. It is not impossible to recruit an army of fifty to seventy thousand through temporary recruitment.

The key is, once Zhao Ting is allowed to burn these millions of stones of grain, millions of people in Hangzhou will starve. It is hard to say what will happen by then.

Just as the two sides were arguing, Jiang Hongfei led a large army to the city of Hangzhou.

Jiang Hongfei attaches great importance to Hangzhou, a prosperous metropolis second only to Bianliang City in Tokyo.

In order to capture the city of Hangzhou as smoothly and as completely as possible.

Jiang Hongfei decided to come up with a trump card that he had been preparing for many years.

The trump card is—hot air balloon!

Jiang Hongfei already had Liu Huiniang as a skilled craftsman.

Later, when Jiang Hongfei annexed Naitou Mountain, he also acquired Bai Varhan, a native of Atlantic Europe, the son of the famous Western skillful master Xie Ya Ni Xie, and the successor of Yang Manuo's Turbine Sutra.

The combination of Jiang Hongfei, Liu Huiniang, and Bai Varhan has come up with a lot of strange things.

For example: the "Thunder Racing Vehicle" similar to Jiang Hongfei's previous tank.

For example: the "Sinking Snail Boat" is similar to the giant submarine of Jiang Hongfei's previous life.

Another example: hot air balloon.

Because Liu Huiniang and Bai Varhan participated in the production of this hot air balloon, it inevitably has some characteristics of this world.

For example, Liu Huiniang and Bai Varhan insisted on making these hot air balloons look like beasts.

In early November, the moon was as cold as a hook.

In this winter season, standing on the unobstructed city wall to defend the city is very painful for the defenders.

Fortunately, the dignitaries, wealthy families, and gentry in Hangzhou City mobilized 50,000 brave men, so they could take turns to rest.

Those brave men who were temporarily recruited sat in groups of three or five on the city wall, warming themselves by the fire while cursing the ant thieves.

Sudden!

Someone saw through the not-so-bright moonlight that a group of things seemed to be flying in the sky in the distance.

These people were talking a lot.

So soon all the defenders on the city wall looked towards the unknown sky.

Soon, someone saw clearly:

The Suan Ni dances its claws and the lion shakes its head. The golden Xie Zhi shows off his majesty, and the brocade Pixiu shows his bravery. Jackals are in opposition, spitting their fangs and heading straight for the heroes; tigers and leopards are in groups, opening their huge mouths to bite the bad horses. Thorny wild boars rush into the formation, and curly-haired vicious dogs attack people. Like a dragon and a big python flying into the sky, swallowing like a stubborn snake burrowing into the ground.

I saw a large group of beasts flying from the sky.

This scared many people, "Ah Ye!" with a strange cry, and they fled down the city wall.

Not long after, a strange wind blew by. In an instant, flying sand and rocks shook the ground and the sky. A strange wind blew up and swept across the area.

The soldiers of Song Dynasty immediately couldn't look at each other. They were so frightened that the horse that sat down roared wildly, and everyone turned around and left.

Not long after, a black air spread for a long time, making people feel dizzy and miserable. Many fine sand and iron filings-like things hit the people, causing the skin and flesh to be burned and painful. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were immediately in chaos.

At this moment, more than a dozen flying bridges were built directly onto the city wall.

Shi Bao waved his knife, and Ma Qijun, who had been lying in wait under the city in the dark for a long time, immediately passed through the flying bridge and attacked the city wall...

Then, the Second Zhennan Army and the Third Zhennan Army also rushed towards the city wall through the flying bridge...

Taking advantage of this moment, those hot air balloons also arrived over the city wall.

The soldiers of the Zhennan First Army in the hot air balloon condescended to shoot those Song Army soldiers who were still on the city wall and refused to come down.

Jiang Hongfei, who was flying in the mist among the hot air balloons, saw the opportunity and sent Gao Liang, Chen Liqing, Hua Baoyan, Hu Sanniang, Qiongying, Su Jinniang, Fang Baihua, Pang Qiuxia, and Liang Hongyu to the city wall.

After the group of tigresses climbed onto the city wall, they immediately rushed left and right, killing the Song soldiers and causing them to fall off their backs.

Chen Liqing took the lead, with a green sword in her left hand and an ancient pear-shaped spear in her right hand. Killing people and killing Buddhas were like a killing machine.

Seeing this, Liang Hongyu couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She thought to herself: "With her killing method, not to mention killing thousands of people, even killing ten thousand people is just around the corner!"

When Liang Hongyu looked at Gao Liang and other girls, they were all very capable of competing with each other.

Sudden!

A Song soldier came from nowhere and slashed at Liang Hongyu.

Liang Hongyu ducked subconsciously, then shot back and took the Song soldier away.

Only then did Liang Hongyu realize that she was really on the battlefield. If she didn't want to die, she had to show her true skills.

Seeing a large group of Song soldiers rushing toward her, a large rope appeared out of thin air, and one end of it automatically wrapped around Liang Hongyu's waist.

The next moment, Liang Hongyu was like a beautiful snake, massacring those Song Army soldiers in various strange ways and joining the battle group.

Due to the large number of defenders, even though Jiang Hongfei frequently made strange moves and Jiang Hongfei even went into battle in person, it took more than an hour of fighting before the defenders were defeated. They jumped off the city wall and retreated into the city...

Hangzhou city is broken!
