Dawei Fanghua

Chapter 819 The smoke is not over yet

Before noon, the Jin army suddenly penetrated the city's defense line.

In the dark, it seems that Emperor Jin has a sword that cuts the sky. With one swing of the sword, there will be lightning and thunder, and the earth will shake!
The three lines of defense carefully constructed by the Wu army in Xiling were broken in less than half a day.The Wu army's fortifications and battle lines were brutally cut off in the middle, so the city wall collapsed; the Jushan wharf and camp were directly divided in the north.

Of course, the matter is not that mysterious. It is said that the first line of defense and the fortifications built by the Wu army along the highlands suddenly fell in the morning. Governor Bu believed that the second line of defense and the wall of the old city could not withstand the attack, so he led his army to counterattack .The counterattack failed, and the Wu army's troops dispersed and surrendered in large numbers, which accelerated the collapse of the defense line. The second fortification and the old city wall were then broken through by the Jin army!Even so, the incident was quite shocking.

Xiaohu, who was still in the Dudu Mansion, didn't believe it at all at first. This kind of thing was almost beyond imagination!Later, when she heard the news one after another, she felt that it was true!By now she had reached the front hall and courtyard, and went to the tallest watchtower near the gate to take a look.She stayed there for a long time, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Because whether it was the Infantry Association's plan, Lu Kang's inspection across the river, or everyone's urging for Jianye's reinforcements, it all showed that the city's defense line would take a long time, at least in months!Who would have thought that within a day or two the defense line would be broken and Xiling City would be besieged?Not just a day or two, but less than half a day, suddenly gone?
Xiaohu never dreamed that such a situation would happen.Under Quan Jing's urging, since she agreed to leave today or tomorrow, she had indeed given up all hope in her heart and was left with nothing but darkness... In just one or two days, what else could change?
I have made preparations, but I don’t know why, no matter what, I can’t die!Emperor Jin seemed to know her predicament and did something that people couldn't even imagine. It was a miracle and simply amazing!
Xiaohu finally woke up a little. Looking back at the surrounding scene, his beautiful eyes with double eyelids seemed to be gradually regaining some life.She then left the watchtower and walked down.

At this moment, Quan Jing's figure suddenly appeared on the road, accompanied by an official from Bufu.Quan Jing looked sad, as if she was cursing.

Quan Jing raised her head and quickly closed her mouth. The two of them walked over together, saluted Xiaohu and called him "Your Highness."Seeing that Xiaohu had no reaction, Quan Jing spoke again: "I wanted to seize the time and take His Highness out of the city, take a boat out of Xiling, and get out of danger. I went to Dongcheng to find Bu Erlang earlier, but General Bu couldn't get away, so he called me Come back and find the subordinate officer of the Governor's Mansion."

Xiaohu didn't know what to say. How could he possibly explain clearly to the person in front of him who was pretending to be confused?

She seemed to be a person lying in the earth, the wooden boards were nailed up, and she couldn't scream even if she wanted to, but suddenly someone cut her open with a sword and pulled her out of the darkness!Then the man digging at the pit pointed at the gold pit beside her and described how comfortable it was inside.

"Ha! Haha..." Xiaohu couldn't help but sneered in response, and couldn't stop laughing.This excitement of surviving the disaster is like a cicada emerging from the soil and flying into the bright sunshine.

She truly felt happy, but her happy mood immediately triggered her sense of guilt. Her comfort was actually based on the fact that Xiling was in a desperate situation!Thinking of the soldiers fighting hard outside the city, a wave of self-blame and shame surged into my heart.

Xiaohu's smile gradually turned into a cry. It was uglier than crying, and tears came out of the corners of his eyes!
Quan Jing and the subordinate officials were both shocked!The subordinate officer looked worried, but Quan Jing hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, are you okay?"

Xiaohu woke up from the distorted emotions. Amidst the mixed emotions, she realized that she had lost her temper. She wiped her cheek with her sleeve and shook her head silently.

At this moment, the door of the mansion opened, and the sound of horse hooves came over.Several people turned around and saw Bu Xie and others riding in.Bu Xie's helmet was held in his arms, and his bun was a bit messy. His face was livid, and his solemn expression still contained murderous intent.

When Bu Xie saw Xiaohu and others, he got off his horse, stepped forward and saluted with his fists in hand.Xiaohu and others immediately returned the gift, and Quan Jing opened her mouth, not daring to ask any more questions.

"Where is Zhong Si?" Bu Xie glanced at the subordinate officer and asked first.

The subordinate officer bent down and said: "The General Bu is currently stationed in the East City, guarding against the enemy forces in the direction of Dongshan. The servants have just received the message, and the General Bu should go to the North City at this time."

"Humph." Bu Xie made a voice and strode towards the hall.Xiaohu glanced at the closing door and walked north. If she wanted to go back to her residence, she had to pass by the front hall.

The general next to Bu Xie said: "The Jin army is too fierce, and this battle is too frustrating!"

Another burly man also echoed: "If we can't win the battle at all, our army will be unable to move. How can we just defend the city?"

As expected, he was the one who frightened the emperor so much that he knocked over his wine glass, as well as the general Zhuge Ke and others, as well as the now authoritarian official Sun Jun. They were all afraid of the Jin Dynasty emperor!
In the past, the Wu army and the Wei State could still fight back and forth, at least often with their own victories and defeats. However, the Jin Emperor they met now was so powerful, ferocious and terrifying that they far surpassed the people of the Wei State! !Xiaohu seemed to see a burly man with a sinewy face, but no matter what, at least the Jin Emperor had no grudges against her, and it seemed from the letter that he had no ill intentions.

... At this time, Qin Liang has arrived at the ridge at the southern end of Jushan Mountain. Everywhere he goes, he often climbs up to see the surrounding mountains and landscapes with his own eyes.

The Jin army broke through in the middle and fought directly from the city's defense line to the riverside. The Wu army on the Jushan side was therefore completely cut off from its retreat; then the Jin army marched towards Jushan, no longer an offensive battle, but from its flank. In a roundabout way, he reached the rear of Wu Army directly!In addition, there are still Jin troops on the eastern front of the Jushan defense line. They were originally trying to contain the attack with a feint in the morning, but now they have become a force blocking the Wu army's escape.At this point, the Wu troops in Jushan had no choice but to jump into the river, and they basically surrendered.

As a result, the fighting in the north has generally stopped, and the loud noises that were heard from all directions have also subsided.Qin Liang stood on the ridge and even heard the sound of waves and the sound of "hushing..." coming from the riverside and lapping the shore.

The faint gunpowder smoke has not dissipated and is still dispersed in the air. The scenery in the distance is still not clear and has a feeling of being shrouded in smoke.

However, the sun approaching the zenith has already dispelled the heavy fog in the morning, and the rays of light are shining on the earth!The vast sky has finally revealed its blue color, which contrasts with the sparkling scenery on the vast and vast river in the distance. There is a refreshing autumn atmosphere between heaven and earth!

Qin Liang was wearing Zha armor, and his black cloak was fluttering in the wind.He raised his head to face the wind and looked at this magnificent scene for a while, and he couldn't help but show a little hesitation on his face.

He put away his gaze and turned his head, intending to take a look at Xiling City to the south.Upon seeing this, the civil and military ministers around him stopped looking at the scenery and meditating. Several people immediately bowed slightly respectfully, as if it was a subconscious move from the bottom of their hearts.

Ma Mao's voice said: "With a snap of your fingers, your Majesty taught the Wu army to destroy the solid fortifications they had built. This was beyond my expectation! Your Majesty's martial arts skills are so powerful that they are unparalleled throughout the world. I admire you greatly!" "

Everyone hurriedly echoed: "No one can match your Majesty's achievements!"

Not to mention his subordinates, Qin Liang himself did not expect that it was indeed too fast.He said casually: "This victory still depends on the lives of the soldiers. We should consider it carefully and don't let the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty lose their lives in vain due to improper deployment."

Du Yu and other generals immediately paid their respects and said, "I have been taught and will obey the imperial edict."

Qin Liang looked around, and the ministers around him all looked in admiration. It could be seen that as long as the defeat of Wu was successful, the people of the world should do the same and have to recognize the prestige of the Jin Dynasty more. He immediately exhaled and looked up to the Xiling that was looming in the south. Tower.

If you capture Xiling and even the entire Jingzhou, you will immediately be able to occupy the upper reaches and form a condescending and coercive force on Wu!

Although they have only won the first battle, the hope of destroying Wu this time has become very high!Qin Liang thought of the anxiety he had felt before, the hope that the three families would return to the Jin Dynasty and stabilize the throne. Everything would become a reality, as if it was close before his eyes.As well as the eagerly waiting eyes of Lingjun and Queen Mother Guo, his mood gradually aroused.

Xiling is the next target! !The city is still some distance away from here, and its appearance is not very clear, but it has already made Qin Liang long for it.

At this time, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded from the south. In an instant, cheers and shouts came from far and near.Everyone followed the sound and watched for a while, and in this atmosphere, they congratulated the emperor one after another.

After Qin Liang responded, he immediately ordered: "Instruct Yang Wei, Pan Zhong and others to build a fort outside the old city and surround Xiling City." He turned his head and glanced at Du Yu, who had a bag around his neck, "Yuan Kai also went to the east side of the city, asked Wang Chang to take his troops, and also asked Guan Zhongjun to go to the south of the city, but he still couldn't relax and arranged for security!"

Jia Chong, Du Yu and others all bowed and said: "I have received the imperial edict!"

Today's battle is indeed exciting.However, the war is not over and the goal has not been truly achieved. Qin Liang feels that it is not the time to celebrate yet. He still needs to stabilize his mind and continue to accomplish great things!
By quickly besieging Xiling, reinforcements from Xiling City can be completely cut off; by building siege fortifications first, it can also prevent the defenders from jumping over the wall in a hurry, looking for opportunities to rush out to sabotage, and delaying the progress of the battle to capture the city.

In addition, the Chinese army's camp was behind the Dongshan Mountains. With the changes in the front line, it was no longer appropriate to locate it there.

Qin Liang observed it and found that the front of Xiling City should be to the east or south of the city, but the old city side is also pretty good! !Gu City was originally a market, with many ready-made houses, no need to live in tents, and walls and gates for defense, which was very trouble-free.
