Queen Flower - Chapter 260
An advance team headed by Ke Yuanliang has been selected and ready. Jiang Lan glanced over, there were many familiar faces, and half of them were from Kejia Village.
The people she sent to infiltrate Fengcheng have already left, and it is unclear what role they can have.
When night fell, Jiang Lan and Xiao Yan marched with this advance army for dozens of miles and reached the upper reaches of the rapids.
They cut down bamboo and weave them into bamboo cages, and then put the nearby rocks in the cages to make a batch of people with good water quality, and then slowly put the bamboo cages into the narrowest section of the river.
In addition to the bamboo cages, sandbags must be filled in the end, and then placed on the fence made of bamboo cages. This is the final project.
All this work cannot be done overnight, so the team has to work at night and hide during the day.
Seeing that the speed of the river’s water seemed to slow down, and the water level dropped slightly, it was probably winter, so no one cared. In fact, Ke Yuanliang just placed some bamboo cages and laid a solid foundation. In order not to scare the snakes, he did not do it overnight, but waited for instructions.
After Jiang Lan successfully launched the first bamboo cage, he and Xiao Yan rushed back to the main camp, preparing to fight in a few days.
After Ke Yuanliang reported that everything was ready, it was night, and Jiang Lan’s army set off.
The team was marching fast, lightly armed, cavalry and infantry, with nothing except for combat needs. By the time they reached the rapids, Ke Yuanliang had already ordered the bamboo cages and sandbags to be filled. .
The army waded through the water and rushed straight to the gate of Fengcheng, ambushing them in batches everywhere.
But seeing the towering wall of the city gate, Xiao Yan Jianglan repeated his old trick and climbed the city wall.
Wait for Xiao Yan to enter the city. Jiang Lan turned around and left the city, leading the army to move.
Xiao Yan started a killing spree on the city tower. No one was alive after the Hengyue Dao. At this time, flames ignited all over Fengcheng. That is, the people who had entered the city started to ignite the fire with arson. Of the four gates, only the west gate did not catch fire. , and the rest is full of smoke billowing.
Du Ren was startled in the middle of the night, saw the sky was red, and he was horrified, thinking that Fengcheng had fallen into the hands of the enemy. He heard that there was only fire at the west gate, so he led his army straight to the west gate, and the commander moved in a panic. Naturally, the same is true of the soldiers under his command, who trample on one another. At this time, Xiao Yan had already opened the south gate and led a group of people to attack, and Du Ren hurriedly opened the west gate. The subordinates were also unwilling to fight, and the main force fled directly.
Ma Zheng has been waiting for their arrival, and naturally led the army to intercept them halfway. The two plum blossom hammers were invincible, and the opponent suffered countless casualties.
Du Ren fled in a panic and waited until the fourth watch. The team was exhausted and exhausted, and most of the sergeants were exhausted. When I ran to the Fenghe River, it was fortunate that the river was not deep. People and horses went down to the river to draw water.
But said that at this time the upper reaches of the Fenghe River. Ke Yuanliang saw that Fengcheng was on fire, and after a while, he heard downstream people shouting horses neighing. Immediately ordered the removal of the cloth bag, and after a while, the water was soaring, rushing down, rushing straight down.
Du Ren’s army couldn’t dodge in time, and was swallowed by the surging river. Many people were drowned. Many were directly swept down by the river and rushed past.
Du Ren had a great fate and had already crossed the river. He led the remnants of the army to continue to flee. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin was killed on the way. He heard a loud cry, and an army blocked the road. The leader was a general, white horse and white armor, with a black whip around his arm. , holding a bright silver gun, standing there, quite impatient, seems to have been waiting for a long time.
“Du Ren, stay safe.” Jiang Lan shook the spear, the tip of the spear shone coldly in the moonlight, dazzling and trembling.
Du Ren’s soul was scattered, and today he was really like a lost dog. He had to bow immediately and surrender: “Your Majesty, Du Ren is willing to surrender sincerely.”
Jiang Lan sneered, “You are a slave with three surnames, you are extremely shameless, I will kill you today.”
With a finger of the bright silver spear, the army immediately scuffled together, the sound of swords and swords was in my ears, and it was only at a glance that I could tell the difference between the soldiers on both sides.
People say that poor thieves should not chase, because the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry. When people are forced to be helpless, they will burst into infinite courage and see death as home. It is a pity that Du Ren’s remnant army has been overwhelmed by repeated besieging and killing, and the faith in his heart has long since collapsed. As for Jiang Lan’s army, morale is like a rainbow, and seeing the enemy like a bereaved dog is even more powerful. Although it is a long-distance attack, it is also exhausted, but the psychological advantage is too obvious.
Needless to say, in the final outcome, Du Ren was beheaded and the rest surrendered.
When Jiang Lan led the troops over, the Fenghe River was flooded with water, but the suspension bridge over the river had been lowered, and Xiao Yan was standing on the other side of the river waiting for her arrival.
He was riding on a warhorse, with the Hengyue knife on his back, his black clothes were covered with smoke and blood, and his body was filled with murderous aura, as if stepping on blood, but when he saw her coming, his eyes immediately The waves were bright, showing a gentle smile.
“Done?” Jiang Lan rode across the bridge.
Xiao Yan rushed to her side, nodded and smiled, “Fengcheng is already in our hands.”
Jiang Lan looked back at the surging river and was in a happy mood. In this way, they had passed the first hurdle. This time, Murong Jian had miscalculated, letting Du Ren guard Fengcheng, which would be cheaper for her, but I don’t know how Murong Chun would deal with it.
After Fengcheng was captured, Yan Zhan and Murong Jian’s main force officially fought. Yan Zhan overcame the psychological pressure and returned to his previous fierceness and bravery. , forced them to retreat, and pressed them into the Northland.
And Liu Chang of the East Route Army also succeeded and occupied a city.
In this way, the battlefield began to penetrate deep into Murong Jian’s northern land. Jiang Lan advanced the battle line, and a large area of territory was already in her hands, and she steadily went to work, firmly controlling this area and becoming her new stronghold.
At this time, the spies from Xijing also came back to report. It was rumored in Xijing that Murong Chun had the idea of compiling the throne. Although Murong Jian did not move Murong Chun on the surface, he took his military power into his own hands. This is why after the fall of Fengcheng. , Murong Jian’s army rashly fought against Yan Zhan, and finally lost the reason for the defeat. It is said that Murong Chun was thinking about the war, but could not participate in it. After repeated defeats, he was so angry that his old illness relapsed and he was bedridden.
It seems that Xia Henqiu’s mission has been completed in half.
In addition to being happy, Jiang Lan was worried about him, so he could only ask someone to go back and tell Xia Henqiu, safety first, come back as soon as possible.
The temporary calm of the war, the northward movement of the battle line, Chu Qingcheng and Murong Xiling’s worries about Jiang Lan, and the need of the actual situation, the two left the southern land and set off for Fengcheng, while the northern land was handed over to Shangguanhong. Stationed in Dingcheng.
PS: No one will watch when the war begins, so I will simply write about it.
