East of Nanjing City, dozens of miles away.On the south bank of the Yangtze River, a large crowd suddenly appeared, the sparse cavalry in front ran wildly, and the back was an innumerable rout, and the further back it became, the denser it became, as if the river was pouring back and rising the tide.These people are the defeated army that came out of Zhenjiang in a panic.Since the Battle of Wuchang, forcing Kong Youde to death, and going down the river, taking Jiangxi, and recovering Nanjing, the army of the Longwu court has gradually become more and more angry.Later, the imperial court suppressed the Zhejiang system and organized and trained the central forbidden army, and the generals of Longwu were even more ambitious, and they regarded themselves as the elite of the imperial court and the regular official army, and did not take the Zhejiang army very seriously, and regarded the Zhejiang army as a miscellaneous weapon.The rapid fall of Zhenjiang, 50,000 people did not hold it for a day, so that Liu Chengyin's army changed from extremely inflated self-confidence to extreme inferiority and fear.At this time, there was no Zhejiang army chasing behind, but the routs rushed to flee one by one.Liu Chengyin was injured in both legs, rode on a war horse and ran wildly, and almost fell off the war horse several times, but he still couldn't reduce the speed of the horse, as if there was something terrifying behind him.At this time, the war horse under his crotch, he had already run foaming at the mouth, gradually slowing down, and the routs behind him were even more embarrassed, one by one, losing their helmets and weapons, and some people in the winter even dragged only an inner robe left, spreading the girl's wild run."
Governor!"
At this time, a general really couldn't run, stepped forward and grabbed Liu Chengyin's reins, panting heavily, "Governor, it's safe!"
It's safe!
”Liu Chengyin's war horse, neighing, four hooves and one soft, lying on the ground and not walking.The soldiers hurriedly put Liu Chengyin off the horse, but his eyes were blank, and he even rolled his eyes a little, and gasped for breath: "What about safety?"
”The general swallowed his saliva with difficulty, "Governor, it's indeed safe!"
”Liu Chengyin looked left and right, "Where is this?"
”"It's far away from Zhenjiang and has arrived in the eastern suburbs of Nanjing, Longtan Town!"
The general said breathlessly.As soon as he heard this, Liu Chengyin breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person finally relaxed, "Zhao Tiebang, a dog's day, is shocking Lao Tzu!"
”Approaching Nanjing, it means that it has been out of danger, tens of thousands of routed soldiers, seeing that the front stopped, one by one the soldiers of the forbidden army who really couldn't run, immediately sat on the ground one after another, and some lay down directly, motionless, as if dead.This battle shocked Liu Chengyin and tens of thousands of forbidden troops, and everyone was completely stunned by Donghai Town, and before they could react, the city was captured, which caused a great psychological blow and self-doubt to everyone.At this time, Liu Chengyin was sitting on the ground, and his subordinates bandaged him, and suddenly there was a commotion among the soldiers, and there were exclamations one after another among the people who were sitting, "It's not good, the horse army is here!"
”Liu Chengyin was shocked when he heard this, and he actually snorted, stood up miraculously, frightened, and ready to escape, "Where did the Ma army come from!"
”For a time, many defeated soldiers, regardless of fatigue, got up, and prepared to flee.At this time, the general hurriedly supported Liu Chengyin, "Governor!
Don't panic, it's not the horse army from the east!
”Liu Chengyin was stunned when he heard this, and when he listened carefully, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and the sound of horses' hooves came from the west.At this time, he stretched out his eyes and saw a horse army rushing from the direction of Nanjing in the west, along the river.Liu Chengyin couldn't help but rejoice: "This is the forbidden army in Nanjing!"
”There are few horses in the south, a horse army of more than 1,000 people, galloping over, how can they see so many figures in front, the cavalry can't help but be stunned, as the first general, hurriedly reined in the reins of the horse, and stopped at the horse to observe.As the first general, quite mighty, it is the Nanjing Forbidden Army, Li Laiheng, the commander of the Kokang Battalion, he looked at the large number of people in the distance with some doubts, and his heart was terrified, "Between Nanjing and Zhenjiang, how can there be tens of thousands of troops?"
”"Commander, it's your own people!"
A general next to him looked at the pergola for a while, and when he saw the few remaining flags in the crowd, he couldn't help but exclaim.Li Laiheng took a closer look and couldn't help but be shocked, the clothes and armor on the side of the court were yellow, and they were really his own people.Li Laiheng's heart sank, he pulled the reins of the horse, and shouted: "Go, go forward and take a look!"
”The cavalry stopped the reins, and after a moment's pause, he cautiously came slowly.When the defeated army saw its friendly troops, all their hearts rejoiced, and the defeated soldiers, who had been sitting on the ground, stood up one after another, made way for the cavalry, and let out a burst of cheers.Different from the joy of the rest of his life after the rout, Li Laiheng became more and more frightened the more he looked at it, and couldn't help but hold the reins of his horse and ask, "Where did you come from?"
”"This general, we are all Zhenjiang generals, the city has fallen, and we have fled here!"
A rout general said.Li Laiheng was shocked when he heard this, Zhenjiang, which was guarded by 50,000 people, said a few days ago that he could defend it for a few months, and when the Xichuan soldiers came, why did the city suddenly break?
Generally speaking, a fortified city like Zhenjiang, before the city is breached, will definitely ask for help, and Nanjing and Zhenjiang are only a day's journey, why there is no news from Nanjing, Zhenjiang suddenly fell.Could it be that the defenders of Zhenjiang didn't even have a chance to ask for help, and the city was captured?
Li Laiheng was shocked in his heart, and blurted out, "Where is the Lord of You?"
”The defenders in the city left the city in a panic, the formation was chaotic, the soldiers did not know the generals, the generals did not know the soldiers, the command was completely chaotic, the news was not well-informed, and rumors were spreading.An officer said: "General Hui, the brothers left the city in a panic, it is said that Liu Dudu was blown off his legs and died in the city!"
”"Fuck you!"
Before the officer's words fell, a loud curse came from behind.Li Laiheng followed the prestige, and saw Liu Chengyin walking over with the support of the two generals.Li Laiheng turned over and dismounted, and said in surprise: "Liu Dudu, what is this?"
”Liu Chengyin cried with a sad face, "Alas!
Don't mention it, it's hard to put it into words!
Commander Li, you hurry up and escort this governor back to Beijing, this governor wants to meet with He Gebu!
”In the city of Nanjing, He Tengjiao's mansion.Liu Chengyin told He Tengjiao about the fall of Zhenjiang, and He Tengjiao's hands were cold and his forehead was sweaty.Zhenjiang City, which was guarded by 50,000 people, was captured by Zhao Tiebang in less than a day, and Nanjing was not safe.In the Jiangbei War, He Tengjiao almost wiped out Zhao Ming's army, and also killed Ma Shiao, who was sent by Donghai Town to ask for help.Zhao Ming didn't mention these things afterwards, but He Tengjiao would not be naïve to think that Zhao Ming would forget.He didn't mention it, which showed that Zhao Ming had matured and become a rather terrible opponent, before he had no chance of revenge, he chose to forbear, and once the opportunity came, he would definitely seek revenge.He Tengjiao is talented and sparse, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, talking and laughing in the court, talking and laughing in the court, talking about state affairs in the first place, thinking that he can strategize, once there is a problem, the difficulties are in front of him, but he is often unable to solve them.He Tengjiao didn't dare to imagine what the consequences would happen to Zhao Ming after he entered Nanjing, and he was extremely frightened in his heart.Liu Chengyin was frightened by Zhao Ming, "Ge Lao, Zhao Tiebang is fierce, day and night are coming, Xichuan soldiers are far away and can't quench their thirst, it is better to abandon Nanjing and return to Wuchang in the west."
If things don't work, you can still fight against each other!"
