Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 120 Victory is mine (fifth update, please vote, please subscribe)
In the spring of March, in the Huguang area, the spring rains are continuous, the sky is gray, and the thunder is loud.

The huge lightning was reflected in the turbulent Han water, like the god of thunder, and it looked extraordinarily terrifying. The calm river water began to rush, and the small boats shook violently uncontrollably.

"vomit--"

The soldiers of Qin Bing, all from Shaanxi, disliked ships very much. They vomited and vomited after eating. Even if it lasted for more than a month, some people were still not used to it.

"Zhang Laowu, are you still throwing up?"

At this time, a big man holding an umbrella came over, and said with concern: "This damn rainy day has never stopped. If this is in our Yan'an mansion, people who have lost their fortunes and prayed for gods and Buddhas would not be able to ask for it."

"This is Huguang, it can't compare to my hometown!"

The big man sighed, looked at the rolling waves of the Han River, and then turned his head to look at Xiangyang in the distance, shrouded in rain and fog, looming.

"Tell me, it's been half a month since Fancheng was captured, how come Xiangyang hasn't been captured yet?"

Zhang Laowu vomited back, wiped the filth around his mouth, took out another piece of cake from his bosom, and began to eat:

"Hmm, how do I know?"

"However, there are only a few thousand people yelling every day. I guess they want to starve the other party to death!"

"I think it's possible!" The big man nodded, with lingering fears in his heart, he said: "A while ago, they fought against Fancheng, taking turns, without rest. Thousands of people were killed or injured!"

"If this really hits Xiangyang, there will be several times the casualties!"

"Don't eat it, watch out!"

"Hmm!" Zhang Laowu swallowed quickly, and rowed the boat, wandering on the Han River.

As the lifeline of transportation, the Hanshui River flows downstream from Hanzhong Mansion's food supply, transits through Yunyang Mansion, and arrives near Xiangyang.

However, in order to trap the city of Xiangyang, the Hanshui River and the moat of Xiangyang were besieged by boats, and the scene of constant businessmen and merchants in the past was eliminated.

Even though it was misty and rainy, there were no less than [-] ships on the water, which trapped Xiangyang City to death.

Naturally, inspections, tours, and military orders are required.

The boat was swaying, and suddenly, a big boat approached abruptly.

"Lead the way to Xiangyang City Moat."

I saw dozens of armored and majestic men on the big ship, escorted by several ships, cautiously.

What the two of them didn't know was that they had met a big shot.

So, not daring to be negligent, he led the way and came to the moat outside Xiangyang City.

The two left.

"Look at Hani, you porcelain hammer, you can't tell, is this Xiao Zongbing Zhu?"

The big man couldn't help laughing and cursing when he saw Zhang Laowu who was still full of ideas.

"How do you know?"

"Stupid, look at that water armor, with a long knife on his waist, and a firecracker on his back. I saw it from a distance, and I recognized it immediately!"

The big man pouted and enviously said: "It's a pity, I haven't seen Xiao Zongbing Zhu, otherwise, don't eat fish all the time, I'm about to vomit."

"It's good to eat something..."

The two murmured and gradually walked away.

On the big boat, Zhu Yixi was wearing casual clothes, casually carrying a knife, looking at Xiangyang City in the smog, he couldn't help sighing:

"How stubborn!"

At this time, he personally received the food and grass and came back. The most important thing in the war is the food and grass, and he was worried about others.

As soon as he received it, he wanted to visit Xiangyang City.

"If the commander puts his heart into it, he can take it in a few days."

On the side, Chen Yongfu snorted softly: "You have to wait for a few days, the cold spring is coming, it is difficult for us northern soldiers to get used to the south."

"Drink more hot water!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yixi seemed to think of something, and said a playful sentence.

south?I was in the south in my previous life.

After eating steamed buns for nearly a year, I didn't eat rice until I arrived in Hanzhong.

The rain was as cold as a cow's hair, and Zhu Yixi felt very cordial when he saw it.

"My chief soldier, how can there be so much firewood?"

Chen Yongfu couldn't laugh or cry.

"Yes!"

"However, there aren't many southerners among the thieves!"

Zhu Yixi was stunned, he raised his head, looked at the fuzzy Xiangyang City, and said: "It seems that we have to solve it as soon as possible, let's go back!"

When I returned to Fancheng, I was very happy to see the soldiers jubilant.

When asked why, it turned out that among the grain and grass brought from Hanzhong, there were many pickled pickles, pickled cabbage, radishes, garlic, etc., to change the taste of the soldiers who were about to vomit after eating fish.

More than [-]% of the soldiers are from Shaanxi, or the elite from the three sides, and they must not be used to the southern diet.

Regarding this, Zhu Yixi was noncommittal, since he likes to eat fish anyway.

There is no condiment, so it has a natural fishy smell. As a general soldier, it is naturally an exception.

However, he received a letter from Zhao Shu.

The above said: The grain in Hanzhong is about to run out, and Shaanxi merchants have been sent to buy grain from Sichuan, don't worry.

"I hope it will be faster!"

Zhu Yixi sighed.

The Great West Army, which set out in the first month, quickly went north along Jingzhou, conquered Kuizhou, and came to Wanxian.

According to the news he received, the water in Wanxian County was rising, and Zhang Xianzhong's 200,000 army was forced to stand still for more than a month.

It happened to be the same time as he was in Xiangyang.

So, at this time, who is faster.

"However, Xiangyang is just a bait for fishing. Why hasn't the fish I was waiting for arrived yet?"

Zhu Yixi looked at the map and murmured.

Following his gaze, the huge words De'an Mansion appeared.

At this time, De'an Mansion and Anlu County, which were only more than four hundred miles away, had military camps stretching for more than ten miles.

Before Li Zicheng went west to Tongguan, General Liu Baiwang was stationed at De'an Mansion to defend against Zuo Liangyu's invasion.

Although it is said that Zuo Liangyu was terrified by Zhang Xianzhong's sneak attack, but he relied on looting and gathering, and his force expanded to 200,000 again, occupying Jiujiang, and eyeing Huguang.

Although Bai Wang only had 20,000 people, he repeatedly repelled Zuo Liangyu's troops and gained the upper hand repeatedly.

After learning that Xiangyang was under siege, Bai Wang immediately paid attention to it, but he didn't dare to move out easily.

Because in front of him, there were Zuo Liangyu's soldiers and horses. If they were noticed, once they attacked back and forth, they would be finished immediately.

However, for more than a month, Xiangyang was safe and sound, and Bai Wang couldn't help feeling contemptuous:

"Then Zhu Yixi is just a person who has earned a false name. I'm afraid he is worth less than that Zuo Liangyu?"

However, at the beginning of March, the distress letters from Xiangyang became more and more urgent, and the situation became worse.

Bai Wang's eyelids twitched. As the former capital, Xiangyang's status is self-evident.

"How is Zuo Liangyu?"

Bai Wang asked in a deep voice.

"The left thief was beaten to the bone by the King of the West, and now he has been beaten to death by you, General. At this time, he is recharging his energy and recharging his energy, training his navy, curled up in Jiujiang, and dare not move rashly."

The scout reported back.

Bai Wang was deep in thought: Zuo Liangyu was afraid of being beaten, so he didn't dare to mess around for a while.

Xiangyang's status is self-evident. Once it is breached, he will be flanked by left and right immediately, and fled northward in embarrassment.

Zuo Liangyu received 200,000, while Zhu Yixi received only [-].

Adding in the more than 10,000 people in Xiangyang City, our side is worth [-]!

Thirty thousand to fifty thousand, and Zhu Yixi is acting like an officer and soldier.

After a thorough analysis, he really couldn't find his own disadvantages.

Victory is mine!

He raised his head and said loudly: "Let your sons prepare, there will be a big battle to be fought!"
