Invincible son

Chapter 1215 1216 [There will be times when the wind and the waves break] ([-])

Yaozhou, Jiangyin Prefecture.

This place is adjacent to the estuary of the Tiancang River, and has seven counties under its jurisdiction. To the west are Songyang Mansion and Hunyuan Mansion in sequence.

The structures of the Daliang Southern Army and the Western Army are not similar, because the geographical conditions on the two sides are completely different.The border of Lingzhou is located at the eastern end of the Gaoyang Plain, and is separated by the terrain stretching from the northern foot of Cangwu Mountain. Therefore, the major camps of the Western Army only need to guard the dangerous terrain to effectively block the invasion of the large army of Western Wu.

The south is different. The Liang and Zhou countries generally use the Tiancang River as the national boundary. This big river originates from the Cangwu Mountains and is thousands of miles long. There are many ferries suitable for ships to dock in the middle.Regardless of Daliang or Southern Zhou, there were many routes to choose from, which meant that the Southern Army of Daliang could not just guard the camp, but had to allocate its forces to various important passes and cities.

Last winter, Huaiqing Guard, who was stationed in Jiangyin Prefecture, was transferred to Sizhou, and Guiyang Guard, who originally belonged to Changping Camp, was transferred to Jiangyin Prefecture in a written note from the imperial court.

Commander Gu Jie personally led [-] elite soldiers to guard Jiangyin Fucheng, and placed the remaining [-] subordinates in three counties along the river.

On the east side of Fucheng, Gu Jie stood in armor with a dignified look.

In the distance is the estuary waters of the Tiancang River, which is more than [-] miles long. In the past, cargo ships and merchant ships were often seen. At the time of extinction, only some small fishing boats appeared occasionally.

However, there are countless Southern Zhou warships connected right now, just like covering the clouds and avoiding the moon.

The sound of footsteps came from behind Gu Jie, and a capable man in his thirties walked up to him quickly, bowed his head and said, "Second Young Master."

This person's name is Chen San, and he is Gu Jie's personal soldier, with a loyal personality and a strong skill.

Gu Jie stared at the Zhou army infantry camp in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "Say."

Chen Sandao: "There is a reply from the Shangyuan Mansion. Zhenyuanhou said that the menacing attack of the Southern Dynasty must not only threaten Jiangyin, so our army needs to strictly guard all places. He also said that he has ordered the second young master to guard Jiangyin's defense line. People went to the right military plane for help."

Shangyuan Mansion is where the commander-in-chief of Yaoshan Daying is located, and Marquis Zhenyuan is the new commander-in-chief of Yaoshan Daying, Gu Jinshao.

Gu Jie frowned slightly.

Yesterday, a large number of warships of the Southern Zhou Dynasty appeared near the estuary downstream. He immediately ordered the defenders to strengthen their vigilance, and at the same time sent a request to Gu Jinshao for help.There is a flat river in the territory of Jiangyin Prefecture. Except for the various cities, there are few passes to defend. Therefore, the main attack direction of the Zhou army is very likely to be here.

However, the sudden appearance of a large number of warships from the Southern Zhou Dynasty obviously put Gu Jinshao in a dilemma, because the Dingzhou navy near Puqi City is now facing frequent advances from the Nanwufeng navy, and they must guard the waters from Wufeng Ferry to Shennv Ferry .If the Wufeng navy is allowed to go down the river, the connection between the second city of Jiangling and Hanyang on the south bank and the north bank will be cut off, and no one can bear the consequences.

In other words, the Dingzhou navy now has no time to take care of the downstream Jiangfang. After the Southern Zhou emptied out its wealth to build this brand new navy, the entire coastal waters of Yaozhou have become the possession of the Southern Zhou.

In this way, not only Jiangyin Mansion, but also Songyang Mansion and Hunyuan Mansion in the west may be attacked by the Southern Zhou Dynasty, especially the boundary of Songyang Mansion. The south bank is the Linjiang Camp of the Zhou Dynasty.

More than that, the Southern Zhou Navy could also go north along the coastline and invade Weihui Mansion behind Jiangyin Mansion.

On the surface, Gu Jinshao's arrangement was fine. Before the main force of the southern army came to help, he really couldn't spare any extra troops, so he could only order the defenders to stand firm.

Gu Jie looked at the Zhou Army camp on the east side of the city, frowned and said, "Go to Governor Liu right away, let him continue to recruit civilians in the city, and at the same time let the nurses of the wealthy gentry and those brave men form a reserve army. "

Chen San said solemnly: "Yes!"

The war came faster than everyone expected. After a short day of rest—the most important thing was to assemble the siege equipment, the Zhou army brazenly launched an attack on Jiangyin Fucheng the next morning.

The strength of the Zhou army is about 5000, and the defenders in the city are only [-], but these [-] are sharp soldiers trained by Gu Jie himself, and their strength and morale are the best.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the two sides repeatedly competed for the control of the city wall. As the fighting continued, Gu Jie clearly felt that the strength of the opponent's first ascending army was different from before.During the raid on Hanyang the year before last, Gu Jie also led troops to act with the army, and he had a clear understanding of the combat power of the Ningguo camp in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, which was obviously weaker than the Zhou army in front of him.

Pingjiang Fang family son.

The name suddenly popped up in his mind.

This is indeed the case, and the main attack task this time is the Ruijia Battalion composed of all Pingjiang disciples.

Gu Jie's martial arts talent ranks last among the four brothers, so it is difficult for him to boost the morale of the whole army like Gu Fan, but Gu Liang has praised his calmness more than once, no matter how difficult the situation is, he cannot overcome break him.

On the fourth day of the siege, Jiangyin Fucheng was still in the hands of Liang Jun.

In the main formation of the Zhou army outside the city, Fang Yuntian ignored his younger brother Fang Yunji, who was eager to try, and walked up the dirt hill accompanied by a group of generals, looking at the situation inside the city.

"General, the defenders of Beiliang are almost exhausted under the tough offensive of our army, and they will finally have the confidence to take Jiangyin City within half a day!" A young general said awe-inspiringly.

Fang Yuntian was noncommittal, and said slowly: "The Northern Liang Army is nothing more than that."

Everyone echoed, but they were a little puzzled.

Although the balance of victory and defeat has been tilting towards our side, the most important reason here is that Liang Jun has too few troops, and our side is the Pingjiang Ruijia Battalion, which can be called the elite of Tiger Ben.Ordinarily, the eldest son is definitely not the kind of arrogant person, why would he suddenly show such contempt.

Fang Yuntian looked around the crowd, and said calmly: "I'm not saying that the soldiers of Beiliang are low in combat power, but that Gu Jinshao, the commander of the Yaoshan camp, is as cowardly as a mouse. Worried about being transferred from the mountain by our army, or afraid of taking responsibility for the loss of other places, so we can only stick to it rigidly and wait for help, without the ability to make timely decisions on the battlefield."

Only then did the generals come to their senses, and they couldn't help laughing.

One of the older generals jokingly said: "It's not because of the master's ingenious plan that the general Beiliang couldn't figure out our army's intentions. What if he wasn't so cautious?"

The rest all laughed and echoed, "Extremely, extremely."

Everyone knows that Liang and Wu are now fighting fiercely in the west of the mainland, and Beiliang is under great pressure. At this time, Zhou Jun first launched an offensive on the upper reaches of the Tiancang River, and then pressed Yaozhou with a powerful navy. However, they didn't put all their strength into the two places, and they obviously hid their backs. This made Liang Jun's coach dare not be careless, so this situation of fighting each other formed.

Fang Yuntian smiled slightly, looked at Jiangyin City in the north, and said calmly: "Since the other party dare not dispatch troops, we naturally cannot refuse the other party's kindness. Lin Zhi, Fang Ning."

The two generals stepped forward and said in unison: "The last general is here."

Fang Yuntian said word by word: "You each lead five thousand sharp soldiers, and you must capture Jiangling within two hours!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Lin Zhi and Fang Ning strode down the dirt hill, and then they could only hear the sound of army drums resounding all over the field.

The Zhou army made a comeback, and Jiangyin City Wall once again fell into a bloody fight.

After a full three days of hard fighting, Shangyuan Mansion still did not send reinforcements, and the defenders had already reached their limit. However, no one was timid at this time, and they still rushed towards the Zhou army with their knives and guns reckless.

Gu Jie held a spear and fought in the most dangerous place accompanied by more than ten soldiers.

After Chen San killed a Zhou Jun, he finally couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "Second Young Master, retreat!"

Gu Jie didn't turn his head back, and said decisively: "Shut up!"

Chen San wanted to persuade him again, but Gu Jie squeezed out a word between his teeth: "The men of the Gu family have to die in battle, how can they just live by idling!"

He took a sudden step forward, pierced a Zhou Jun's lower abdomen with his long spear, pulled out his waist knife with his backhand and slashed horizontally, a cloud of blood bloomed in front of his eyes.

Then a stagger.

Chen Sanyan quickly supported him, obviously feeling that Gu Jie's body was shaking due to lack of strength, but his eyes were still firm.

Looking at the four sides of the city walls, there are Zhou troops climbing up the ladders everywhere. There are less than [-] of the five thousand soldiers of Guiyang Guard, and flesh and blood are flying everywhere, like a hell on earth.

Gu Jie straightened his body, and the will to die without regret appeared in his eyes.

Chen San turned his head and wiped his eyes, and said with a sad smile: "In this case, I will accompany the second young master to Jiuquan."

Before Gu Jie could answer, he heard a tidy shout coming from the west.

Like a thunderbolt, it goes straight to the sky.
