Chapter 100 Jiangling Haze
The sea breeze is gust, and the golden dragon-patterned flag is hunting.
Liu Xia sat in the square outside the government of Qinshuicheng County with a gloomy face. The tiger guards on both sides were arranged, holding black knives, with fierce eyes and murderous.
In front of him, several guard commanders and county magistrates of nearby cities knelt down to the ground, trembling and trembling all over.
"Wang Tianlong, why did you withdraw without fighting on that day?"
Liu Xia asked coldly.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Weichen arrived outside Qinshui City with his troops on the same day and saw a large number of pirates in the city. Wei Chen felt that he was outnumbered, so he ordered the people to retreat.
"Good! Zhang Yun. Why did you evacuate?
Liu Xia asked again.
"Weichen is less than 700 people. Seeing Wang Tianlong's withdrawal, Weichen did not dare to fight. Then he also withdrew."
"So, there's nothing wrong with you?"
Liu Xia asked.
"Weichen knows the crime, Weichen knows the crime."
Zhang Yun hurriedly kowtowed and said.
"No wonder the sea pirates are so rampant that they don't pay attention to our imperial army at all. Come on, drag all these people out and put them to death. Whip the corpse for a day."
Liu Xia suddenly got up and shouted angrily.
Immediately, the tiger guard behind him rushed up and dragged those people directly down.
"Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, please spare your life."
Immediately, the sound of begging for mercy came one after another.
"Come on, gag them first. Ling Chi is less than 10,000 dollars. Don't let them cut off.
Liu Xia drank it angrily.
"A parent official, he knew that the pirates were invading and didn't know how to stand up, but he fled without fighting. It contributes to the arrogance of the pirates. If you dare to go to the city to fight on that day, even if you are defeated by the sea pirates, these people will not be so fished. You still have the face to beg me for my life."
Liu Xia pointed to them and roared.
Immediately, these people were tied to the copper pole, and the executioner immediately began to do it.
One knife after another, pieces of skin and flesh were cut off. The officials' mouths were blocked, and they twitched all over in pain.
The onlookers around don't feel relieved.
On that day, if they hadn't fled in fear of battle, even if a thousand officers and soldiers rushed in, they would have escaped from the city, and they would not have let those pirates do whatever they wanted in the city.
Suddenly, there was a sound of cheering and applause resounded through the sky.
"Zhang Zong, the garrison of Jiangzhou, Kunzhou and Taizhou. If you meet a sea bandit and run away without fighting, you will be killed without mercy, and you will be dealt with by treason and the enemy.
Liu Xia said angrily.
"Yes."
Zhang Zong said with a fist.
"Your Highness, it's almost time. It's time for us to go, too."
Duan Lingxiao reminded.
Liu Xiadang turned around and was ready to leave.
At this time, a young man suddenly rushed out of the crowd and blocked Liu Xia's way.
The tiger guard behind him immediately pressed the young man to the ground.
"Let go of him."
Liu Xia saw that this young man was the one who stabted him in the courtyard today.
When Hu Wei heard the order, he hurriedly let go of him.
"Your Highness, Cao Min has something to say."
The young man hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted.
"What's your name?"
"Your Highness, the name of the grass people is Su Cheng, and he is a fisherman here. Now that the Cao people's family is broken and people are dead, I beg the prince to let the grass people go with the army. Although the grass people have never been to the battlefield, the grass people want to avenge my wife and children. I beg the prince to give the people a chance.
Suddenly, Su Cheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed constantly.
Liu Xia saw that he was also a poor man and eager to take revenge, so she nodded and said, "Okay. I'm sure."
"Thank you, Your Highness, thank you."
Su Cheng immediately got up, wiped his tears, and stood on one side.
"Your Highness, we also want to avenge our families."
Suddenly, the onlookers around them knelt down.
Liu Xia looked at them. Everyone's arms were wrapped in white cloth. Obviously, all his relatives were killed at home.
Many people have ruined their families.
When Liu Xia saw this, he took a deep breath and said, "I feel the heart of revenge. You are allowed to join the army, but I have something to say.
"As long as Your Highness is willing to accept us and avenge our relatives, we will agree to everything."
Immediately, a strong man shouted.
"Yes, yes, yes, let's listen to the prince."
"Very good, the army is fighting, not a child's play. Everything should be in obedient to military orders. Otherwise, I will have to deal with it by military law. As long as you agree, go out with me immediately.
Liu Xia shouted.
"We promise."
At present, these people are kowtowed one after another.
When Duan Lingxiao saw this, he smiled helplessly and did not stop him.
Although these people have great hidden dangers, their willingness to start with the army can show that they still have blood.
Soldiers can have nothing, but they have no blood, just like a tiger without minions.
"Okay, you go back and clean up, walk for a quarter of an hour, and set off north."
Liu Xia said.
Immediately, Liu Xia left with Hu Wei.
In less than half an hour, the army continued to go north.
I took a break on the road twice. In the early morning of the third day, Liu Xia's army arrived in the suburbs of Jiangling.
Immediately, the army began to garrison.
Liu Xia took Duan Lingxiao into Jiangling City.
Zhang Changyuan went south, and Jiangling City's garrison and state officials went out to greet him.
Wang Qinghe, the guard, was very surprised to see Liu Xia.
I thought Liu Xia was commanding the suppression of bandits in the south, but why did he suddenly come here?
"Lord Wang, how many defenders does Jiangling have now?"
Liu Xia asked when she saw him.
"The prince, there are still 2,000 sergeants."
"Sure enough, from now on, I will immediately block the news of my arrival in Jiangling. The city is closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
Liu Xia said.
"Your Highness, what's going on?"
"I guess that the Wuji Island pirates are going to attack Jiangling. Now you will take someone to prepare immediately. Remember, don't block the news."
Liu Xia said.
When Wang Qinghe heard this, he probably understood and hurriedly hugged his fist and said, "I understand."
After saying that, he turned around and left.Liu Xia boarded the Jiangling Wall and headed for the Ruhai Pier.
"Your Highness, when the sea pirates robbed Qinshui City, they know everything in the city. I suspect that someone has informed them as an internal response.
Duan Lingxiao said.
"I know. But don't worry. I have my own way to deal with them. Zhang Zong, you can inform Huang Pujie now. This time, I'd like to see how capable these pirates are.
Liu Xia clenched her fist and said.
————————————————————
The sea breeze is blowing, and in the sky, the scorching sun is in the sky.
On the deck, the sailors are busy nervously.
Kana stood in the cabin, looked at the map on the table, picked up the wine on one side, and drank it all.
At this time, a golden eagle came in through the window and fell on the table.
Dai Bang on one side hurriedly untied the bamboo tube on the upper leg of the golden eagle, and then handed it to Kana.
Cana took a look at the bamboo tube and couldn't help smiling and said, "Those fools are really tricked."
"The head man is so clever that the fools of the Tianji Dynasty naturally can't guess. Use the Kunsha Gang as a bait to attract their main army to the south. Then we attacked Jiangling and the nearby city. When they knew the news, we would have left long ago.
Dai Bang laughed.
"Jiangling is very rich and an important transit port from the north to the south. I've been paying attention to it for a long time. I'm just afraid of the Jiangzhou garrison and the Jiangzhou navy. That's why I haven't done it. But this time, I can't help but capture Jiangling and destroy their navy and the whole army.
Cana sneered.
"Head, the sailor of the imperial court is still a little powerful. Are you going to do this?"
Dai Bang asked.
"Humph, Jiangzhou Marine Division Camp is only a short distance from Jiangling. What do you think Jiangzhou sailors will do if we attack Jiangling?
"Of course, it's coming to Jiangling for rescue."
When Dai Bang said this, he suddenly realized, "Are you going to make a trap for them?"
"Not bad. We are still two days away from Jiangling. In Jiangling City, there are less than 3,000 defenders. It's just a matter of hands to capture Jiangling. I'm going to divide the army into two routes on that day. Five thousand people on the first route are enough to attack Jiang Lingcheng. The rest of the people ambushed on Fumin Island. As soon as their sailor appears, we will take the opportunity to go out. At that time, inform Kunsha to go north to ambush. Make sure that their ships can't return to the port. At that time, the whole coastline was ours.
Cana laughed.
"After the destruction of the Nangong family, it is still good for us. There is no Nangong family and Huangpu's family. The Tianji Dynasty is just a tiger without minions. You don't have to worry about them. Thinking about these hundreds of thousands of miles of coastline, I feel excited now. This time, we will definitely return with a full load.
Dai Bang Xiaodong.
"Not bad. Why can they enjoy the rich continent? And we are going to suffer on Wuji Island? We have accumulated enough wealth this year and will start recruiting horses next year. Well, in a few years, we will be stronger than we are now. At that time, we will take away his place. I don't have to go back to Wuji Island to suffer.
Carna said this, and there was a greedy light in his eyes.
At this time, another golden eagle fell on the table.
After Dai Bang untied it, he gave it to Cana.
Carna took a look and immediately stood up.
"Head, what's wrong?"
"I just got the news that Liu Xia was actually in Jianglingcheng."
"What? Head, I've heard that Liu Xia is very cunning. We have to be careful.
"Cunning? This fool only brought 2,000 soldiers to Jiangling. In my opinion, the officials of the Tianji Dynasty are all the same. Be greedy and afraid of death. I guess he must have come to Jiangling to escape the war. Very good. This time we just caught the bargain.
Cana laughed.
"What the leader said is that no matter how cunning the fish is, it can't escape the net. I heard that the emperor of the Tianji Dynasty favored Liu Xia. If we can catch him, we can really make a fortune.
Dai Bang laughed.
"When this person was in Longdu, he didn't pay attention to our masters of Wuji Island. This time, I want to personally ask for an explanation for Wuji Island. I'd like to see what he can do! Inform Kunsha Gang to go north immediately. Tell them that there are big fish, and don't let them continue to go south."
Cana laughed.
"It's the leader. I'll do it right away."
After saying that, Dai Bang left in a hurry.
