The Chronicles of Longevity on Liaozhai Road

Besides, the city of Nanjing at this time is almost in chaos.

When it was getting dark yesterday, Xue Feng fled back to Nanjing City with the remnants of the defeated generals. Those folks in Nanjing City knew that something was wrong.

Especially those dignitaries from the former Wu Kingdom.

These people originally thought that after surrendering, Yang Heng could continue to enjoy the glory and wealth in peace, but it didn't take long for such a thing to happen.

You said to let them surrender to another person now, I am afraid they will not accept them.

So they had no other choice, they could only desperately continue to go the same way with Yang Heng until the end.

Now that they have made up their minds, they have to think about how to defend the city of Nanjing. These people gathered together in Liu Yu's house, and finally discussed for a long time. They had no choice but to contribute their servants again.

The last time their servant fought Zhou Yan, they suffered a lot of losses.

Fortunately, these people had plenty of money. After the city stabilized in Nanjing, they selected a group of people from the nearby tenants and barely made up their family size.

But these people have just received training, and they are just a show.

But now they can't take care of these anymore, so they counted the number of people and gathered almost all the men who could be used in the family, and there were nearly [-] anxious people in total.

Then Liu Yu personally brought several of his cronies to Xue Feng's residence.

At this time, Xue Feng was asking for help from several groups of troops, and on the other hand, he was driving all the soldiers who could be used in Nanjing to the city wall.

In addition, Xue Feng was preparing to order all the men in Nanjing City to accept his command and be ready to go to the city to defend the city at any time.

At this time, Liu Yu arrived with his cronies.

Xue Feng originally didn't want to meet these people, because he is so busy now that he has no time to chat with them.

But after thinking about it, he needed the help of these people to defend the city, so he met Liu Yu on top of the Tang Dynasty.

In the end, he hadn't asked Liu Yu to send out servants for help, so Liu Yu impatiently handed over the military power of 8000 men to Xue Feng.

Xue Feng looked at the tokens in his hand and was a little dumbfounded. When did these people become so active?

But now that the goal has been achieved, Xue Feng stopped thinking about it and said a few polite words, sent Liu Yu and others out, and then sent his cronies to take over the 8000 people.

Therefore, when Guo Yun's 20 troops came back to the city of Nanjing, there were already 4 to [-] people on the top of the city.

Guo Yun looked at the defense on the city wall and frowned again.

He is very clear about the exact number of troops in Nanjing City. It stands to reason that Xue Feng lost tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and there should be no elite soldiers in Nanjing City now.

But look at the present city of Nanjing.

I saw banners fluttering and drums and thunder on the top of the city.

The soldiers above were all wearing iron armor, and they looked like the best of the best.

In fact, he didn't know that these soldiers in iron armor were contributed by Nanjing from those dignitaries.

Although these people are newly recruited by the rich and powerful, they may not have much skill, but their equipment is indeed good, and it is comparable to Yang Heng's most elite soldiers.

So this time Guo Yun was fooled.

Guo Yun frowned and sighed, he didn't expect Xue Feng to be so cautious that he didn't take all the soldiers out of Nanjing City.

I have more people than the defenders of Nanjing City, but it is unrealistic to use this number of people to break through Nanjing City.

And time is not on its side.

If this delay continues, Yang Heng's reinforcements will arrive, and he will not be able to leave even if he wants to.

In the end, Guo Yun had no choice but to give up and continue to attack Nanjing City, but led his troops to the bank of the Yangtze River again.

When he came to the edge of the Yangtze River, he realized that there were not many ferries here.

With the dozens of boats in front of him, if he wanted to transport 20 people to the north bank of the Yangtze River, it might not be possible in a day or two.

In the end, Guo Yun had no choice but to order the cavalry to collect the ships while setting up the camp.

To say that the south is really convenient for boats.

Therefore, it only took Guo Yun two or three days to assemble more than 200 large ships.

According to such transportation capacity, maybe they can cross the Yangtze River in one day.

Therefore, Guo Yun was not nostalgic, and immediately ordered the army to board the boat and start crossing the Yangtze River.

Maybe it's because of luck, the weather in the past two days is very good, and the sun is bright above the sky.

In addition, there was no wind and waves, so by noon, Guo Yun had already transported [-] to [-] troops to the other side.

Looking at it like this, as long as it is midnight today, everyone should be able to cross the river.

Moreover, there was no bad news from the scouts he sent out, which made Guo Yun feel more relaxed. It seemed that Yang Heng was caught off guard by his sudden attack, and he had no time to return for help.

But just when his smile was on his cheeks, there were a few fast horses in the distance, galloping towards this side at high speed.

Guo Yun frowned, and was shocked when he fixed his eyes.

It turned out that the leader was none other than one of his personal soldiers.

These people were sent out by Guo Yun to act as scouts, and now they came back in such a hurry, did something happen?

After thinking of this, Guo Yun stopped waiting here, but urged him to get off his horse and went to meet the soldier.

The two war horses quickly met.

The soldier did not salute, but directly shouted at Guo Yun.

"My lord, there are countless warships coming to this side from the upper reaches. According to the speed of the boats, it may only take an hour to get here."

Guo Yun's heart was ashamed when he heard this.

It seems that luck did not favor him this time.

There are only two roads before Guo Yun.

The first way is to gather soldiers and horses immediately, gather the 10,000+ people who have not crossed the river, and then wait for the enemy.

Another way is to ignore these soldiers who have not crossed the river, but take a boat and go to the north bank as soon as possible.

In the end, Guo Yunsi thought about it and couldn't let go of the 10,000+ people in South Bank.

These 10,000+ troops who have not crossed the river are his last cards. If he gives up these people, then he will go to the north. With [-] to [-] remnants, there is no food, no reinforcements, and he will be wiped out soon. .

Why not bring these 10,000+ people to a decisive battle with Yang Heng on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

If God favored him to defeat Yang Heng by chance, he might be able to sign a treaty with Yang Heng and save his own life.

After making up his mind, Guo Yun immediately issued an order that 10,000+ people who had not yet crossed the river immediately left the bank and began to line up on flat ground.

Just after their formation was formed, a few white sails appeared at the end of the Yangtze River.

Chapter 689

Among the countless warships, there is one in particular that stands out.

It is obviously bigger than other ships, and it is very gorgeously decorated, and the soldiers on it are also the best equipped.

In particular, there is a big flag on the bow of the ship. On the big bright yellow flag, there is a big "Yang" character.

It turned out that this was Yang Heng's arrival.

Since Yang Heng received Xue Feng's memorial, he didn't delay, and immediately returned to Chongqing. After rectifying the army, he began to sail down the river in warships.

He really came at the right time, just when Guo Yun wanted to cross the Yangtze River and make trouble in his old lair in the north.

Yang Heng's battleship quickly blocked the water surface of the Yangtze River.

At this time, Yang Heng was on the dragon boat, frowning as he looked at the rebels who had already lined up in the distance.

This Guo Yun is indeed a hero.

His combat ability even surpassed that of his former formidable enemy Jin Wang Wang Zhen.

Fortunately, I have already made arrangements for his reaction, otherwise, if there is trouble, it will really make him break through Nanjing and turn his lair upside down.

But now, even though he brought his soldiers back to help and blocked him to the shore, but now, if he wanted to face hundreds of thousands of troops waiting in full force, it would be a bit troublesome to land on the beach.

Guo Yun, who was on the shore, obviously saw Yang Heng's scruples, and he also breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that there will be no war for the time being, and I still have other ways to escape.

Therefore, he divided 5 horses and continued to move forward. Among these people, bowmen were the most important, and the rest were sword players.

They wanted to line up on the shore so that Yang Hengde's army could not land easily.

He is going to move westward with the remaining one hundred thousand or so people.

If possible, after getting rid of Yang Heng's pursuit, slowly develop on the land of Jiangnan.

Yang Heng also saw the other party's thoughts, and knew that if he was allowed to escape, his own Jiangnan would probably be ruined.

Therefore, regardless of the casualties of the soldiers, he immediately issued an order to order the army to forcibly land.

Following Yang Heng's order, the entire fleet began to boil like a hot pot.

The countless warships began to rush towards the shore by the wind.

Guo Yun's defenders on the road saw this situation and hurriedly drew their bows and arrows, trying to block these landing warships with countless bows and crossbows.

But their attack effect is not ideal.

Although Guo Yun had already formed the formation just now, they were in a hurry, and many crossbows did not fall to the shore.

Therefore, just relying on the bows and arrows of the crossbowmen, there is no threat to those large warships.

What's more terrible is the strong crossbow and trebuchet equipped on these big ships.

So it was just an attack, and the countless boulders and bows and arrows several meters long shot these people away.

It's not that these soldiers are incapable, but that these people's hearts have been dissipated.

In the current situation, everyone knows that things are not good. In addition, they were originally Yang Heng's soldiers, and now facing their old masters, they feel a little guilty.

At this time, suddenly, among the troops blocking Yang Heng, a large red flag began to wave.

As the flag was waved, several red flags were lit up in the entire army, as if echoing the flag.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers began to shrink inward in an orderly manner, regardless of Yang Heng's army that began to move to the shore from the outside.

And Guo Yun, who has not gone far in the distance, also saw this situation, and now his hands and feet are cold.

This is obviously Yang Heng's internal response.

After thinking of this, Guo Yun's eyes began to drift to the generals who followed him.

Is there any internal response arranged by Yang Heng among these people? As long as I don't pay attention, these people will turn against each other.

After thinking of this, Guo Yun's eyes showed a murderous look.

And those generals also obviously felt the cold behind them, so their hands couldn't help pressing on the swords around their waists.

And Guo Yun also noticed their little tricks.

I know that if these people are allowed to go back relying on their half-hearted thoughts and their own performance just now, I am afraid that his [-] troops will be dispersed immediately.

Therefore, Guo Yun gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and suddenly winked at Guo Hai, the commander of the soldiers beside him.

That Guo Hai has been following Guo Yun for decades, and he knows his every move by heart.

Therefore, with a wave of Guo Hai's hand, the hundreds of soldiers who followed behind him suddenly raised their swords and guns, just like the seven or eight generals who followed Guo Yun chopped off.

And those generals are also holding weapons now, and after finding out that something is wrong, they all raise their swords and guns and start to resist.

It's a pity that they acted in a hurry, and they only had some self-defense swords and no heavy weapons in their hands, so they were quickly beheaded by these soldiers.

After killing all these generals, Guo Yun heaved a long sigh of relief, then he hurriedly called a few of his cronies and soldiers, and then issued a military order to let them replace these generals to control the army .

If it is in normal times, although this process is difficult, it will not cause much turmoil over time.

But now it is different.

Because after Yang Heng's hundreds of thousands of troops had already landed on the other side, they immediately lined up and began to approach Guo Yun's side.

At this critical juncture, Guo Yun actually broke out in internal strife and killed all his generals in command.

Although the internal troubles were temporarily avoided, how should they face Yang Heng's attack next?

Under such circumstances, Guo Yun didn't think about resisting forcefully, but began to gather [-] to [-] troops, and then let his own soldiers lead Guo Hai to launch a counterattack against the approaching Yang Heng army. charge.

Yang Heng, the general in charge of the army, obviously did not expect that the other party would dare to fight back at this desperate time.
