Qin Official

It wasn't until daybreak the next day that everyone was able to clearly see the chaos on the water and land in Wuchang: because there was no one to put out the fire because they were busy fighting, most of the camp had been burned down. After the fire subsided, the veterans went to rescue some clothes and tents.

Smoke and dust were flying everywhere, like snowflakes, falling on everyone's heads.

Things were not much better in the water. Yang Xiong's tribe, who wanted to cross the river to Xiakou, was cut off because they were attacked by a fleet that suddenly arrived.

In addition to Yang Xiong, Xin Yi and other generals who escaped in small boats, nearly four thousand people were stranded in the river. These troop ships full of soldiers were very heavy and heavy. They were caught by the flexible stern and could not escape. They turned over, were destroyed, and the ships were wrecked. Left in shallow water, there were still many corpses floating there.

After being attacked, some of the soldiers on the ship jumped into the water and tried to swim to the other side. But can everyone cross the Yangtze River? Most of them died in the center of the river. Most people wisely returned to the south bank and chose to surrender.

Be honest, take off your armor and throw your weapon on the ground. Don't wait any longer, hurry up!

Deng Zong, a native of Ruyin, was very proud. He was promoted to hundred chief because he prevented some fellow countrymen from Ruyin from fleeing with Ge Ying last night. His boss, who was said to have an old relationship with Marquis Wu Zhong, was from Shaxian. Now there are five hundred masters.

A few days ago, the veterans of the Southern Expedition were treated like thieves, but now it was the other way around. It was their turn to arrogantly hold spears in hand to intimidate the Qin soldiers who had to climb ashore to surrender after falling into the water.

However, General Wei has an order: Don't treat them harshly. They were just deceived by traitors and traitors. When the truth is revealed, they will still be brothers of Paoze.

Not only did Hei Fu spare the lives of those Qin soldiers, Hei Fu even had people distribute dry clothes and let them gather to warm themselves by the fire.

Among the four thousand prisoners, there was some peace of mind. Among them were Nanjun soldiers stationed in Xiakou and lieutenant troops from Guanzhong. The former had heard about Heifu's reputation for a long time, and saw that Marquis Wu Zhong treated him well, and there were many people from Nanjun in his army. Many people gritted their teeth. Anyway, they had committed the crime of rebel, and they would be punished as prisoners even if they didn't die when they returned. , just follow Marquis Wu Zhong and forget it!

The Guanzhong soldiers were worried, worried about whether their family members in Guanzhong would be implicated after they surrendered...

At this time, Bo Lujia, the master of Marquis Wu Zhong, came over and began to tell the prisoners how Zhao Gao and Hu Hai killed the king and the story of the clothes edict. The plot was full of twists and turns, which made them stunned.

Looking at this scene from a distance, Hei Fu nodded and said:

Given time, these prisoners can become our new source of soldiers after being slightly transformed.

Heifu naturally had a purpose in treating the prisoners well. In his opinion, although he was the most righteous person in the world, what he was fighting was not the overthrow of the Qin Dynasty, nor the revenge of the Six Kingdoms on the Qin people, but like a... civil war. ?

It is now late February. According to Xia Wuji, more than half a month has passed since the death of Qin Shihuang. Calculating the time, Zhao Gao and Hu Hai should have arrived at Sanchuan County and will soon arrive at Hangu Pass...

Heifu's main force was still in Changsha County. Even though he had annihilated and captured 5,000 people, there were still more than 30,000 people from the Feng family and his son waiting for him in Jiangbei.

There is no way to prevent the opponent from entering the main pass. The war cannot be ended overnight, but he must prepare for a protracted war. Therefore, he must win over everyone he can!

At this time, everyone also discovered that Wu Zhonghou's so-called one hundred thousand army was not one hundred thousand at all, just two thousand, driving dozens of ships, that's all...

After the victory, the atmosphere was relaxed, and no one planned to escape like Ge Ying. Among the veterans of the Southern Expedition Army, a brave soldier asked loudly: Your Majesty, it's dawn, why is the army of 100,000 people so late in arriving? ?”

An army of one hundred thousand? Isn't that what it is?

Heifu smiled, gave a thumbs up, pointed at himself and said:

When they saw my flag, they fled in confusion and looked southward in a hurry. There is only one person left, who can be a hundred thousand soldiers!

These words made everyone stop joking and stand in awe. More than 20,000 people all bowed to Mr. Hei:

The presence of Marquis Wu Zhong is like the presence of the officers and soldiers of the three armies of the Southern Expeditionary Army!

…

He asked Dongmen Bao, Wu Chen and others to reorganize the soldiers of Wuchang Camp, while Heifu met the great hero who came to the rescue last night, Gong Ao's eldest son, Gong Wei, who was only 17 years old.

Gong Ao is about the same age as Hei Fu, but he couldn't bear to get married early and his son is now an adult.

Last year, Gong Ao asked Gong Wei to come to Lingnan and serve as a short-range personal guard beside Hei Fu. He was regarded as a son taking the place of his father to protect the safety of the monarch.

For his own people, Gongwei had learned martial arts, and Heifu did not hesitate to promote him, allowing Gongwei to quickly reach the position of Lord of Five Hundred. When heading north this time, the generals were ordered to stay in the Changsha camp and wait for the backup prepared by Heifu.

You little boy.

When the captain came to pay his respects, Heifu happily patted the junior on the head:

The tiger father has no sons. If you hadn't arrived in time, they would have all run away. We wouldn't even be able to keep a single person on the boat!

It turned out that in December, under the pretext of exploring the waterway to the Western Queen Mother State, Heifu sent Ren Xiao, the general of Louzhou, to go westward. He also had Wei Yang and Xu Fu put him under house arrest in Hepu, seizing control of the boat division.

Then, the liar Ying said that Ren Xiao was dead and could not take over the military affairs of Lingnan. It was better to transfer Zhao Tuo to Panyu to take charge.

This was a plan to kill two birds with one stone. Zhao Tuo had no choice but to arrive in Panyu alone. He was stared at by Heifu's cronies and ordered to be unable to leave the city. He was like a puppet.

On the other side, Gong Ao led his people north from Yulin, held Heifu's military order, took over the military affairs of Guilin County, and served as a false general.

When Heifu faked his death and quietly headed north, he ordered Gong Ao to mobilize the Lingqu Boat Division and sail the fleet to Changsha Camp to standby in the name of transporting grain from Changsha County to Lingnan.

After Heifu learned of the death of Emperor Qin Shihuang, he sent Li Cang south to report the news. After receiving the order, the Lingqu Marine Division immediately took action and picked up Gong Wei and a thousand short-handed personal guards there. Immediately, they went down the Xiangjiang River and entered Dongting and Yunmeng. They stopped for inspection and cleared the customs. They worked day and night. After several days of sailing, they finally caught up with Heifu and the others...

Thinking of this, Lieutenant General was also a little scared: Junhou, most of the Lingqu boatmen are grain transport ships and there are only a few stern boats. What's more, the end of the strong crossbow cannot penetrate the silk. If we really have a head-to-head confrontation with the Xiakou boatmen, who will win and who will lose? I don’t know, but luckily it happened by chance and caught them off guard!”

But Heifu only smiled mysteriously: Everything is as expected.

He felt like all he needed was a feather fan.

Although he pretended to be confident on the surface, in his heart, Hei Fu knew that winning this battle was a fluke.

In many cases, fighting is not about who is braver or better at using soldiers, but who is more timid or who fights worse...

Also, who has more luck!

This is Heifu's summary of the battle last night. Both sides had fatal flaws. The one side improvised and thousands of people fled before the battle, while the other side was too timid and suspicious and was frightened by Heifu's name. Missed opportunity.

Although it was a game of novices pecking each other, at least, thanks to luck and courage, Heifu still won the bet.

He asked Gongwei again: When you are traveling up the Xiang River, will you encounter Li You's army?

The Gongwei thought for a while: No, it must have been staggered. The road from Wuchang to Linxiang does not entirely follow the Xiang River.

Hei Fu nodded and asked again: When you set off, will Han Xin be in Lingbei?

I haven't heard any news...

Heifu breathed out: I don't know if the battle in Changsha has started or who will win or lose, but we have no time to care about it and can only fight on our own!

At this time, Dongmen Bao, Wu Chen and others also entered the camp. Hei Fu thought that he did not intend to go back and cooperate with Xiao Tao and Han Xin to attack Li You, so they all asked:

Your Majesty, where should we go next?

Do you need to say more?

Heifu smiled, and it could be seen on the faces of his subordinates where they wanted to go most next!

Go back home!
