Chapter 320 Optimus Prime fills the gap

Late at night, the water of the Huaihe River slapped on the river bank, making a rhythmic sound. It is like a lullaby, which makes many tired and hard-working soldiers fall asleep quietly.

Twenty thousand kings and 10,000 defenders recruited by Zhang Shuye, a total of 30,000 horses are stationed together. The camp is not big or small. It is all built by Zhang Shuye's experience in water warfare. There is an endless stream of edging army ships patrolling in and out of the village. The flags are clearly lit and the guard is very strict. Zhang Shuye led the water village, and Chu Tianya sat in the dry village. The two people and horses were closely connected and echoed each other to defend against the copper wall and iron wall.

In the marshal camp of the dry village, Chu Tianya, who came from afar, could not rest. He summoned Zhang Shuye overnight to discuss military tactics with him.

In the conversation with Zhang Shuye, Chu Tianya learned that Zhao Gu started from Hangzhou. Before that, he had secretly prepared for a long time. In addition to contacting many military and town generals and state and county officials, they also collected a large amount of grain and military weights in advance, including ships, which are necessary for the southern war.

Although the Song Dynasty has been fighting for many years, most of the battlefields are concentrated in the north and the Central Plains, and the war has never burned to the south of the Yangtze River. The rich Song Dynasty still has a very strong foundation in the south, which is also one of the main reasons why Zhao Gu and his son fled to Hangzhou.

In contrast, Zhao Gu's rebels are rich and lack nothing; Chu Tianya is poor, with almost nothing except a group of guys who are not afraid of death and can fight.

And this happens to be Zhao Gu's weakness - his men and horses are afraid of death, and they are not good at fighting. More importantly, the military is not in the same spirit!

"It's common sense to attack each other with my strengths." After learning these, Chu Tianya smiled indifferently and said, "Zhang Zhifu, do you believe it? In fact, after I heard the news of Zhao Gou's rebellion, instead of being worried, I was relieved?"

"The master's wisdom is as deep as the sea, and the subordinate certainly believes it!" Zhang Shuye said calmly with a smile, "In fact, since the official and Taishi appeared in Shunchang at the same time, Zhao Gu has been defeated!"

"Oh?" Chu Tianya smiled curiously and said, "Why did Zhang Zhifu say this?"

"The official's personal expedition also means that Zhao Gu is a vain teacher who plots rebellion, and the military and civilians in the world will definitely spit on him. If you get more help and lose your help, your teacher will be defeated!" Zhang Shuye said, "In addition, Zhao Gu's child is not proficient in military affairs. Although several of his subordinates can be used to war, they are also unconvinced by the same bed and different dreams, and they will not be willing to fight for Zhao Gu and his son. Therefore, although there are 200,000 rebels, they are like a group of post-autumn ephemer, only to survive and scare people. Although there are only 20,000 soldiers under the command of the Taishi, they are the division of tigers and wolves with high morale and confidence - compared with each other, as long as the Taishi waved the whip, it must be like a broken bamboo in the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, and the victory will be captured! "

"Zhang Zhifu, a wonderful man." Shi Liai, who was listening quietly, laughed and said, "Do you know that your words are exactly what Master Chu thought? In fact, since the day Luoyang sent troops, there have been many people - from officials to soldiers - all doubting whether Taishi's move was too reckless and inappropriate. Only those who know the soldiers can understand that the Taishi is actually Zhizhu holding the chance to win.

"Mr. Shi said it well. Zhang Zhifu is indeed a wonderful person, and he should also be Chu's confidant in his life!" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Actually now, Zhao Gu's heart must be as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Because I don't need to inquire and know that when I hear the news of the official's personal expedition, the rebels on the South Bank will definitely be frustrated and panicked. From the perspective of soldiers, what Zhao Gu, as the commander-in-chief at this time, needs most is a victory to stabilize people's hearts.

"What the master said is very true!" Zhang Shuye had a feeling of "brightness in front of his eyes". He marveled in his heart that Chu Tianya, who was popular all over the world, really lived up to his reputation and knew the military. He said, "After the official heard that the official family and the Taishi were about to arrive at Shunchang Mansion, he immediately made preparations to prevent Zhao Gu from coming to attack while our army was tired and relaxed. Now the coastal water village is ready for assassination. Please also ask the imperial division to prepare early in the dry village to prevent the thieves and soldiers from landing from other bank embankments and make a sudden attack.

"Zhang Zhifu, you can rest assured." Shi Liai said with a smile, "How can such a small skill be hidden from Master Chu? As early as the official and the Taishi met the generals and soldiers in Shunchang at the point platform, the Taishi sent the fierce general Yang Zaixing to lead the people of the headquarters to set up an ambush in a dangerous and hidden place. Now, we are still worried that Zhao Gou won't come!"

"Haha, wonderful, wonderful!" Zhang Shuye laughed loudly and said, "It's really a blessing in the life of a subordinate to work with a military master like Chu Taishi!"

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "So, Zhang Zhifu has always felt that ambition is difficult to reward, and his talent and reward can't be displayed?"

"This! ..." Zhang Shuye hurriedly bowed, "The subordinate has no resentment at all! The lower official lost his words, please forgive me!"

"Even if Zhang Zhifu really complains, it should be. What's the crime?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "The previous court of the Song Dynasty was indeed a treacherous eunuch. Those who have talent and ambition are suppressed and squeezed out, and it is difficult to get paid for their fierce ambitions. The pillars of a country like Zhang Zhifu have repeatedly suffered from many misfortunes. For a simple example, if the previous teachers and Li Gang had not been suppressed and excluded, how could the Song Dynasty fall into such a situation? What's more, it's not my turn to be a mountain thief to enter the main center.

"Ha ha, the teacher is too modest." Zhang Shuye quickly arched his hand and said, "It is not surprising that heroes don't care about the source. It's not surprising that a talented young man like Taishi can have today's prestige and achievements. The lower official is really grateful in his heart, because the Song Dynasty has the protection of Chu Taishi from then on, and he will definitely be able to prosper and move forward!"

Chu Tianya waved his hand and smiled, "Well, we don't have to pat each other here. Let's talk about two things - first, there is a high possibility that Zhao's troops will come to raid the camp tonight. We must be more vigilant. After all, they are many people and wait for work. Second, Zhang Zhifu, after the battle of Shunchang is over, I plan to ask the officials to grant you permission to be the envoy of Jiangnan and be fully responsible for the fight against the rebels in Hangzhou until the complete extermination of the gangsters in Jiangnan. You, you have to prepare early!"

When Zhang Shuye, who was nearly sixty years old, heard this, he trembled all over on the spot and felt that the blood all over his body was boiling like that at the age of 20!

"Gunuch, I am willing to work hard! Do your best and die!" Zhang Shuye knelt down to Chu Tianya.

"Zhang Zhifu, please get up quickly!" Chu Tianya quickly helped him up and said, "If you stand in the world, you should make contributions. Zhang Zhifu was full of literary talent and martial arts, but it was not until the year of Huajia that he got this opportunity to display his talents and repay his losses. In fact, it was the Song Dynasty that the court had always owed you. Zhang Zhifu, you can feel free to do what you want and should do. Officials and Chu will be your most powerful backing and support. Even if the sky falls down, there will be Chu Tianya to fill the vacancy for you first!"

"Sungguan... Thank you again for the kindness of Chu Taishi!" Zhang Shuye was really excited. He knelt down again and burst into tears!

In the heart of every official, he is longing for the appearance of his Bole. Uncle Zhang Ye Huai was born for the rest of his life, and he didn't meet his Bole until he was 60 years old - the Song Taishi, Chu Tianya, who was only in his twenties!

Now, there is only one idea left in Zhang Shuye's heart - the scholar dies for his confidant!

......

At the last two o'clock, in front of the camp of the Northern Army along the river, there was a loud sound of gongs and drums, and the rebels on the south bank came to rob the camp.

In fact, it is better to say that it is a direct frontal attack than to say that it is a "robbery camp". Because the water village on the north bank is heavily guarded, there is no sign of panic in the raid.

The two armies soon joined each other on the surface of the water. The sound of arrows and stones like locusts shook the sky. The water of the Huaihe River shook and spread countless blood flowers, and the fierce battle was imminent.

In fact, Liu Shiguo, who led the troops from the south bank, was not really stupid. He knew that the Northern Army was ready to bump into him. It's only that when he was about to leave, Zhao Gu, the king of Kang, used a "heart-to-heart" method to give him a death order, forcing him to either win or die on the north bank. There was absolutely no reason to retreat!

Liu Guangguo's father, Liu Yanqing, was a "famous general" who followed Tong Guan to attack Liao in the north and fled when he met the enemy in Baihegou, which eventually led to the destruction of his 100,000 troops. At the beginning, when he was in Taiyuan, Liu Yanqing once arrested Chu Tianya and went to prison and went to the streets to show the public. Finally, with the help of Bai Xu, Meng De, Xue Yu and others, Chu Tianya caught Liu Yanqing and secretly "disposaled" of him.

That is to say, Chu Tianya is Liu Guangguo's father-killing enemy!

Liu Shiguo also has a younger brother who has to be mentioned, named Liu Guangshi. Originally, in the history of the Song Dynasty, Liu Guangshi, together with Yue Fei, Han Shizhong and Zhang Jun, was known as the "Four Generals of Zhongxing" of the Southern Song Dynasty. The brothers Liu Guangguo and Liu Guangshi were born in the military martial arts family. In addition, when Zhao Gou, the king of Kang, ascended the throne, the choice of "team" was very wise to protect the dragon, so they were entrusted with an important task and finally held the military power for a while.

Even now, Liu Guangshi and Liu Guangguo's brothers are one of the few capable generals under Zhao Gu. Zhao Gu also took advantage of the private feud between the Liu brothers and Chu Tianya to successfully absorb them as his army's arms and loyal loyal.

So today, Liu Guangguo, who led the army, is the same as Zhao Gu on the South Bank. There is no room for retreat and choice - it is best to sneak attack; if you can't make a sneak attack, you have to go up and work hard!

......

There is a fierce battle on the water village along the river bank ten miles.

The news soon spread to Chu Tianya, Shuaiying in the dry village. Some generals under his command asked for orders and went to the water village to help. Chu Tianya refused to move, and only asked everyone to prepare for short soldiers.

Sure enough, less than an hour after the water village, there was a firelight and a shout of killing around the dry village - the southern army landed and took a detour to rob the camp!

"The tactics are good!" Chu Tianya sneered, "First of all, the false attack on the water village attracted the attention of our army, and tried to pull our soldiers to the water village to rescue. Then he sent soldiers and horses to rob my dry village behind my dry village. A black tiger came out of his heart and wanted to destroy my old nest and break our roots in one breath!"

Shi Liai couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. "In the Confederate Army, there are indeed people who are familiar with using soldiers. It's a pity that his little trick can't be hidden from the master at all.

"I can't hide it from you and Zhang Shuye!" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Under tension and urgency, people are most likely to make reckless and wrong decisions. Obviously, Zhao Gu did it like this - all right, pass the order, don't let one of these southern troops who came to rob the camp go back! Zhao Gu needs a victory, and I need it more than him!"

"My subordinates take orders!"
