Chapter 1614
Shi Kefa took a few steps back, his whole body shook, and he almost fell. He screamed: "The rebel has already crossed the river, the rebel has already crossed the river, the general is going, the general is going!"
The side of the praise painting was also pale, and he hurriedly supported Shi Kefa when he saw it. Said: "The Pavilion Department is not surprised. Although the rebels have crossed the river, they did not attack Jiangning and counterattacked Longtan, which means that the rebels who crossed the river are not strong enough. Also save the room!"
Anxiously said:" Only today’s plan is to rescue the Longtan side quickly. As long as the Fujian Navy is kept, the Yangtze River will not be lost. If the Yangtze River is not lost, most of the thieves will not be able to cross the river. Only weak forces, although strong, it is not impossible. Conquer."
When Shi Kefa heard this, he hurriedly panicked and said: "Yes, it's important to rescue the navy!"
Then he drank: "Come on! People!"
"Gather soldiers! Soldiers are sent to Longtan!"
He said: "Quickly report to Jiangning with my name post, and ask Wei Country to assemble the army and be ready to fight at any time!" "
At this moment, a violent tremor came from the distant river bank, and the sound was thunderous. Suddenly, the victory over Guanchengtou was absolute silence.
Shi Kefa tremblingly said: "The water village...it is the water village!"
He yelled: "Come here, go to the water village to check!"
Jiangning Water Village is different from Longtan and Pill Apprentice. The water Village here is not a soldier of the Fujian navy, but the navy of Yingtian Palace itself-that is, the Dongting navy in the early Ming Dynasty. It's just now, it's long gone.
Just like the Denglai navy, there are only 10,000 people left in the Dongting navy. There are no more than a hundred warships, and they are all broken, old and weak. Even knowing that the enemy is present, Jiangning's first class of old officials did not reorganize the Dongting Navy.
One is that there is not enough money and food, or the old ministers themselves have money and food, but Hongguang imperial imperial court has no money and food. Second, the time is too short, and there is nothing we can do with procrastination.
However, the imperial imperial court of Hongguang trusts the Dongting navy and guards it in Jiangning Village instead of Zheng Zhilong. because Zheng Zhilong cannot be trusted absolutely.
Jiangning Water Village is on the bank of the river outside Dasheng Pass. It is a strategic place to block the water of the Yangtze River in Jiangning.
Zhou Li’s subordinate was well prepared for the battle. When it was about 90, he received news that Zheng Wushui Division and the two troops who had crossed the river would attack Longtan. Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Li immediately initiated the crossing of the river. Battle!
The two main lieutenants of the Jiangnan War Zone stationed on the banks of the river outside Jiangpu had a total of 20,000 and four thousand soldiers and horses. Under Zhou Li's military order, they began to cross the river.
We collected many ships early, and there were 20 warships sent by the navy of Zheng Wusuo after the attack on Longtan, which could transport two ministerial-level 6,000 men at one time.
In the night before dawn, under the faint water vapor, 20 naval warships were the first. Large and small ferry boats and fishing boats carried the first batch of 6,000 soldiers and hundreds of soldiers. The tiger squatted and rushed towards Jiangning Water Village.
Zhou Li himself was the vanguard, standing on the deck of the battleship. Soon, Jiangning Water Village was already in sight.
"According to the information detected by the Black-clothed Guard, the original Dongting navy was guarding the Ningshui Village in Jiangxi. The number was about 12,000, and there were a hundred broken warships. However, the defense facilities of the Water Village were , But very complete. On the river outside the water village, there are many iron ropes and dragon pillar obstacles. The big ship can’t pass, only the small boat can attack." Zhou Li said indifferently: "The water village is also equipped with fortresses on both sides, and nearly a hundred artillery pieces. , The firepower is not small."
A naval commander hearing this said: "The Governor Zhou, the previous attack on Pill Apprentice, the brothers of the Black-clothed Guard worked hard. This Jiangning water village, It must be exactly the same?"
Zhou Li shook the head: "Jiangning Water Village is not Pill Apprentice Water Village. The Fujian Navy is a newcomer, and the Black-clothed Guard can easily lurch in when there are many people coming and going in and out of supplies. . But Jiangning Water Village is not the case. It has long been established, and Black-clothed Guard is difficult to get in. Dongting Navy Commander is also an elm-headed man. He only listens to the order of Shi Kefa, but fails to say that it will drop, but beat the grass to scare. The snake makes him extremely vigilant. Therefore, the Pill Apprentice incident cannot be repeated here."
The Marine Ministry will be hearing this, and he can’t help saying: "So, we must attack."
Zhou Li said with a smile: "You must attack here. The emperor said that Jiangning has the ancient capital, if it is not necessary, it will not damage the best. It is like a capital. I am attacking here, and I cannot progress too fast. You must Jiang Ning. The old soldiers in the City have all drawn out and wiped them out, lest when the time comes to attack Jiangning and break Jiangning Fengshui."
The Ministry of Water Army can't help saying with a smile: "It seems that the governor has a plan. "
"This is natural." Zhou Li said with a smile: "Once the old soldier of Jiangning leaves the city, I will tell him to not return to the city."
Dujiang fleet arrived in Jiangning After the river surface outside the Shuizhai River Bay, the speed dropped sharply. If the big boat does not enter, one ferry and fishing boat will pass the big boat, such as densely packed schools of fish, moved towards the water village and pounce. The dainty and delicate tiger squat cannon followed.
After entering the firing range, the artillery on the boat, according to the combat plan, first launched shelling on the forts on both sides of the Jiangning Water Village.
That is the first round of shelling, shattering the little bit of fantasy that Sikefa had left.
The victory closed, Shi Kefa looked at the embarrassed messenger of the gunsmoke, and almost fell down the city wall.
"The rebels are attacking in a big way and they have gone outside the water village!"
...
"What?!"
Xu Wenjue is thirty years old and has quite a city. Emergency news came from outside the city, he got up from the hot bed, his face was calm, and he was shocked before he had time to scold him.
"The Xia Thief is here?!"
He grabbed the soldier who delivered the letter, shouted: "Quickly tell, what's the matter!"
The soldier With a flushed face, he said: "Master Guo, the rebels in Jiangpu have crossed the river in large numbers. The Shige Department ordered the villain to report urgently, and asked Master Guo to dispatch troops quickly to rescue Longtan!"
Xu Wenjue Throwing away the soldiers, he took a deep breath: "What's the situation in Longtan?"
The soldiers said: "Before the Jiangpu rebels crossed the river, there was an urgent report from Longtan for help. The rebels have crossed the river. , Is attacking Longtan. The cabinet originally wanted to send troops to rescue, but the Jiangpu rebels suddenly crossed the river to attack Jiangning Shui Village. Shi Ge Department said: Fujian navy can not be lost, please be sure to rescue Longtan. Once the Fujian navy is defeated , The Yangtze River will no longer have a moat, and the general trend will go to rest!"
Xu Wenjue hearing this, said: "You go down and wait for the news from this father."
Then shouted: "Come on!"
"Present an order from the government of our country to make the five-army capital governor's mansion swiftly prepare for battle. In addition, with my famous post, please come to the mansion to discuss decision-making quickly!"
In a moment, Jiang Ning was already rumbling.
In a short while, the imperial imperial court officials such as Ruan Dacheng, Zhang Shenyan, and Lu Daqi rushed to the Wei Country government office.
"What happened, the prince asked me to wait for the night?! The soldiers and horses in the city are changing, is there any major event?!"
Ruan Dacheng asked .
Xu Wenjue didn’t have time to pretend to be polite with him, and directly said: "The rebels have attacked in a big way!"
He said: "Everyone, there has been an urgent report from the Great Victory Pass. At the time of Mao, the Jiangpu rebels on the opposite side crossed the river in large numbers, and Jiangning Shui Village was already in fierce battle. Another enemy army of rebels touched the river and attacked Longtan in Yinshi. Longtan Zheng Zhilong sent people to the Shige Department for help."
