Chapter 325: The Navy Strikes


The so-called borrowing, just like Liu Bei borrowing Jingzhou, will definitely not pay back the loan, but Shen Chong has no better way, he returned to his hometown due to illness and entrusted Yang Yan to take charge of Lanling on his behalf, which does not violate the laws of the court, and he can imply that the court has relieved him of his position at the right time, Yang Yan will not be willing to let Lanling Taishou be appointed by others, and maybe he can also provoke the fight between the court and Yang Yan.

Hmph, the old man depends on whether you can eat Lanling Shen Chong secretly sneered, and nodded reluctantly: "Okay, just according to what Yang Fujun said" "Shen Fujun is wise" Yang Yan praised it, and looked into the formation, the torch shadow was full of shadows, not far from Shen Chong, isn't it Fu Chong Yang Yan smiled: "It's good that Fu Jun doesn't come" Fu Chong saw Yang Yan shamelessly, hurriedly gave his hand, and then half-lowered his head, his face twisted to the side, and he looked ashamed of his old man.

Yang Yan didn't think so, and said to Shen Chong: "Fu Jun is a northerner, and he will not be satisfied when he returns to Wuxing, so please ask Shen Fujun to appoint Fu Jun as the chief historian and take over the position of Qian Changshi." ” Fu Chong was suddenly shocked, in his heart, he did not want to go back to Wuxing with Shen Chong, as soon as he went back, his life would be over, and he would never have the opportunity to show his talents, but he also understood that Shen Chong could not let himself go, he had already accepted his fate, but Yang Yan fished himself out and entrusted him with such a heavy responsibility.

After Shen Chong left, Lanling did not guard too much, and all political affairs were decided by Changshi, and Changshi acted as a substitute for Taishou, although the military power was intercepted by Yang Yan's self-appointed Sima, but Fu Chong had no ambition, his greatest wish was to be a capable minister and leave a name in history.

Xue Shi poked his head out of the car and whispered: "Fu Lang, Yang Fujun treats you, En is higher than the sky, you don't have to be stupid this time, even if you can't let go of your face, please think about concubines and Heng'er, especially your father was plundered by thieves and forcibly escorted into the gentleman's camp, even if you see the light of day again in the future, your reputation will be ruined, and the Niyang Fu family is all in you."

"Awn" Fu Heng looked at his father pitifully.

Fu Chong sighed, looked at Yang Yan in a daze, his heart was full of shame, he couldn't pull his face, and he rejected Yang Yan's kindness again and again, if he really had the temperament of Bo Yi Shuqi who didn't eat Zhou Li, but he received a lot of favors from Yang Yan, but he didn't think about repaying it, but repeatedly avoided it, is this something people can do I've been blinded by lard.

And Yang Yan didn't think it was wrong, and repeatedly showed kindness and gave himself a stage to play his strengths, even if Yang Yan's actions were no different from rebellion, but the Niyang Fu family and the Jiangdong small court had no origins, and they couldn't talk about loyalty.

At this time, a voice echoed in his mind: The king treats me as a countryman, and I will repay him as a countryman As if the knot in his heart was opened, Fu Chong showed a look of relief, turned over and dismounted, and bowed deeply: "The prince of the mansion is above, Fu is ashamed."

Yang Yan waved his hand: "Fu Jun has great talent, a long history, it's nothing, it's just a temporary grievance against Fu Jun." ” Shen Chong's eyes welled up with anger, this was digging a corner in front of him, not giving any face, but he couldn't care about it, he just hummed: "Shen wants to congratulate Yang Fu for getting a handover, or let Shiyi and Fu Jun hand over as soon as possible."

"Well said" Yang Yan arched his hand and said: "The hour is not early, Shen Fujun please return to the city, Yang is waiting for good news." ” Shen Chong understood that Yang Yan didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle, so he wouldn't let himself go like this, so he snorted again and led his troops back, Fu Chong also arched his hand to Yang Yan, and went with the team.

Shen Chong returned to the city, although it was difficult to be aggrieved, but there was no way, he could only according to Yang Yan's request, relieved Qian Feng of his position as a long history, transferred it to Fu Chong, and sent dozens of cronies back to Wuxing, transferred manpower, and finally wrote a letter that was difficult to manage government affairs due to physical discomfort, and asked Yang Yan to take charge of Lanling and sent it to Tancheng.

Shen Chong will not be able to leave for a while, it is equivalent to being a guest, Yang Yan also temporarily put down the city, and sent troops to occupy the four counties of Qi, Hexiang, Changxi and Lanling under Lanling, of course, in order to show respect for Fu Chong, Yang Yan only sent troops to maintain order, and the government affairs and county selection were still arranged by Fu Chong.

Seven days later, the situation in the East China Sea and the four counties of Lanling has been initially controlled, and all affairs are in order.

Su Jun led 5,000 troops to the expedition, the loss was not too big, and the soldiers who returned with him exceeded 3,005, such as this kind of defeat, he did not eat less under Cao Wei when he was in Qingzhou in the past, and even lost worse once or twice, but never once made him so unforgettable.

After all, his own side is a superior force, even if Yang Yan quelled the civil strife in Tancheng in time, the number of troops that can be put into the battlefield is always only five or six thousand, and his four-party alliance army is nearly 20,000, and he is actually defeated and lost.

The strange formation with a big bamboo branch, the giant arrow that can drill a person's hole, and the short arrow as dense as a flying locust all left a deep impression on him, but what scared him the most was the cavalry of the Eastern Navy.

As soon as the cavalry came out, the victory was set.

Since he fought in Qingzhou to recruit the displaced people to become an independent army, Su Jun has never seen such an army, and he is afraid that the Hulu Iron Cavalry in Hebei is also inferior.

"General" Han Huang looked at the wharf on the bank of the river, and said: "This defeat is not a crime of war, it is really because the Xi Gong Department is useless, and it was the first to be defeated by Yang Yan's cavalry, which caused chaos, but fortunately, our army's losses are not large, and he may not be able to fight again because he will regroup in the future." ” "What General Han said is" General Xu Hui echoed: "This battle is not for nothing, at least we have seen the tactics of the Eastern Navy, please forgive the general for saying bluntly, then Yang Yan's training is indeed meritorious, our army absorbs its strengths, and uses it for its own use, and he may not be able to train a strong army in the future." “ "Hmm" Su Jun looked to the east, stroked his beard and sighed: "Yang Yan is a generation of geniuses, this time he is defeated, I am afraid that it will be difficult to claim back Huaisikou, and this son will be retribution, there will always be a day when the army will come to Xuyi, with my strength, it is difficult to resist, I still have to ask for reinforcements."

Su Yi understood his brother's thoughts, and pointed to the west: "But Brother Zu Yue of Yuzhou, Brother Zu Yue and his brother, Yuzhou Township Hao has not yet returned to his heart, I heard that Chen Chuan was also put back in Pengpi by Yang Yanzhi, and re-recruited the old department, which made Zu Yue busy, how could he have the time to interfere in the situation in Huaibei and this person is greedy for good money, if he is allowed to enter Huaibei, I am afraid that it will be inferior to Yang Yanzhi." “ Su Jun snorted: "Zu Youzhi is very talented, there is always a chance for operation, but this matter still has to be discussed in the long run, let's go, board the ship and return to the city first, and I will discuss it with Liu Zhengchang in the future." “ "No" All the generals saluted in unison, and each led his men aboard.

In a few moments, thirty boats slowly rowed off the shore and headed for the south shore of Huaishui.

At that time, this area belonged to today's Hongze Lake District, although Hongze Lake has not yet taken shape, but the river bends everywhere, connected to many small lakes, and the water surface of Huaishui in this section is also unusually wide, about ten miles.

This is also a major reason why Su Jun has never forgotten Huaisikou, compared with Huaisikou, Xuyi is only an important town along the river, does not have the function of a traffic artery, and the water surface is too wide, which is not conducive to crossing the river.

At the end of April and the beginning of May, it was the height of summer, and the water was rough, and the sailors were careful to steer their boats for fear of being washed downstream.

"General, look" Han Huang suddenly showed a look of horror and pointed upstream.

I saw more than a dozen ships sailing upstream, with full sails, going down the river at a very fast speed, and the first few ships were actually fighting ships "Not good" Su Jun saw that it was not his own ship, and his face changed greatly: "I heard that Yang Yanzhi trained the navy, and drove away to hide when I was waiting for the attack, damn, where is this hiding, it must be lying near Xuyi, just waiting for Lao Tzu to come back and carry out a sneak attack." ” Don't look at the ships of the East Navy, except for those few fighting ships, they are all merchant ships, but Su Jun has no navy under his command, his men and horses are from Qingzhou to the south, not to mention training the navy, I am afraid that I don't even have the consciousness of building a navy, some of the soldiers are not water-sensitive, and they will die if they fall into the water Su Yi hurriedly said: "Brother, quickly increase the number of oarsmen sailors, as long as our army goes ashore first, Yang Yanzhi has a naval army, and what can I do?"

Su Jun was anxious, but he was the main general, and he still had his senses, and he was still five miles away from the south bank, and it was not easy to cross the turbulent Huaishui, affected by the current, the speed was not fast, and the East China Sea Army was about ten miles away from him, and it was completely possible to intercept it first, and it was really annihilated.

Gritting his teeth, Su Jun shouted: "Order, turn the bow of the ship, and face the battle":
