Chapter 550

Yang Yingqin, the general of the Zhenxi Army, was stationed in a hidden mountain col a hundred miles south of Lingnan according to the secret order.

That night, when he saw the person holding the other half of the Tiger Talisman, he was stunned.

"Lord Xie Zhanxie, the governor of Lingnan?"

"Ah."

Yang Yingqin's entire face was numb. He had felt something fishy ever since he received the secret order, but he never expected that Xie Zhan, who was apparently being hunted down, was actually on the same side as the imperial court.

At this moment, the only words left in his mind were talking about attacking in the east and attacking in the west, building plank roads openly and secretly visiting Chencang.

Who would have thought?

Your Majesty, you and Xie Zhan are really good at playing, everyone has been deceived by you!he said in his heart.

Xie Zhan looked at Yang Yingqin and took out a secret decree, "The emperor's secret decree, General Yang Yingqin, please obey the order."

Yang Yingqin took a deep breath and slowly knelt down, "General, I will obey the order."

……

Just before dawn, a ship docked in a certain section of the river.

The army led by Qin Sheng was the first to set off and the first to reach the coastal waters of the East China Sea.

However, all ports and terminals in the East China Sea are closed during this period, making it difficult for them to land.

King Jin was not stupid. When the troops were insufficient, it was necessary to shrink the defensive front.

Fortunately, their ally Xie Zhan seemed to be afraid that they would not find the landing point and turned away, thinking that they had found a relatively safe landing point.

This is the condition that was negotiated before.It's okay to let them send troops to Pingzhou, but it's not okay to let them attack the heavily guarded ports and docks in the East China Sea and open up landing points bluntly.

Besides, this is not their Pingzhou warship.Even if their Pingzhou soldiers are not afraid of death and are willing to do this, the Cao Gang will not do it.

Deputy gang leader Lin Shanlin and their governor were talking about renting Caobang ships to help transport soldiers and grain, and priority would be given to using the ships within three months, which did not include the use of Caobang ships for fighting.

That's another price. Otherwise, if the ship is damaged, crippled, or confiscated by the King of Jin, who will be responsible for it?

It was clear that Southland couldn't afford it.

Manager Bi said to Qin Sheng, "General Qin, the water ahead is too shallow and there is a lot of silt. It is difficult for our ship to dock."

Qin Sheng nodded. He had already seen this situation. He looked towards the shore. From the boat to the shore, it was visually estimated that it was ten feet away, and there was a long section of mud against the shore.

"I'll go over and take a look first." Someone has to go ashore first. There must be water flowing over such a long distance.

Manager Bi nodded. He liked Pingzhou who didn't cause trouble to others easily.Of course, if Mr. Qin Liu asked the sailors of their Cao Gang for help, he would also agree.

Qin Sheng didn't say anything more and asked Guanshi Bi to put down two small bamboo rafts on the water.

Then he tied five or six thick ropes to his hands, then took the pole handed over by Zhu Dazhuang, jumped vertically, and got off the small bamboo raft.

"Sixth Master, be careful."

Zhou Da, Zhu Dazhuang and others are not worried about him. Their Sixth Master has always had good luck and will definitely reach the other side smoothly.If something happens to him, then they are even more out of luck.

It will be dawn soon, time is urgent.The soldiers on the ship were not idle either. They each took rectangular cloth bags and sacks and began to pack the food.

In this situation, it is obvious that the supplies on the ship cannot be easily transferred to the shore.

The trouble is that it is a bit more troublesome to use separate packaging, but at least it is a solution.

Not long after, the bamboo raft reached a section of mud and could no longer move forward.

Qin Sheng rolled over and kicked the bamboo raft in front of him hard into the mud. The bamboo raft quickly slid forward and stopped in the middle of the mud.At this time, Qin Sheng landed on another bamboo raft. He used the reaction force of the other bamboo raft to jump again. When he fell, his feet touched the bamboo raft lightly in the mud and flew ashore.

Qin Sheng reached the shore smoothly.

After arriving, Qin Sheng found a tree and tied the rope around his waist, and then he checked the terrain.

Qin Sheng soon discovered that the river bank in this area was a swampy landform. He thought to himself that no wonder this area was unpatrolled.

In addition, the ground in this area looks hard, but underneath it is soft, not strong, and cannot bear too heavy a weight.

As a result, it is impossible to carry too much food and supplies.

Finally, under Qin Sheng's test, the ground in this area can only bear a weight of about 150 kilograms. If it is overweight, it will sink.

Qin Sheng then found two other suitable places to tie ropes, untied four of the ropes that had been tied to the tree, and tied them to the other two places respectively.

The other end of the rope was tied to the boat. Soldiers crossing the river could climb on the rope and carry cloth sacks containing twenty or thirty kilograms of supplies and carry them on their shoulders without worrying about getting them wet.

Zhou Da, Zhu Dazhuang and others were the second batch to cross the river.

When they were told by Mr. Liu that this land could only bear 150 kilograms of weight, they just thought it was fucked.Fortunately, the soldiers of their Jintai Army are not fat, otherwise it would be even more troublesome.

In the end, they could only pick out important supplies and take them away quickly. After all, it was almost dawn and they didn't know when the patrol would come.

"Sixth Master, do you think this was done on purpose by the man named Xie?" Zhu Dazhuang and the others started a conspiracy theory.

"No matter if he did it on purpose or not, let's see who is the winner after calculating it to the end."

……

That night, Fang Xinkai asked his generals to go to Dong Guowei's main tent to request freedom of movement.

Dong Guowei frowned but was still right.

After the others went out, one of his trusted generals said dissatisfiedly, "King Cheng's men are full of thorns. Tomorrow is the day for a large-scale attack. What are they going to do?"

Another confidant general said, "Let them do whatever they want, they are not doing enough work here anyway! Do you still expect them to be the main force of this attack?"

"Yes, you can't count on them."

Not long after, Zhao Biao also sent someone, saying that he wanted to move freely.

Everyone in the tent:...

"One by one, let them encircle and suppress the rebels together, but they don't obey orders at all."

"It's the same breed."

"Forget it, stop talking and let them go. The Southland is obviously at the end of its rope. Even without them, we, the imperial soldiers, can take over the Southland tomorrow." Someone tried to smooth things over.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go back and have a good rest, and try to win the Southland tomorrow!" After Dong Guowei finished speaking, he sent the people away.

If it is true that Fang Xinkai on King Cheng's side wants to move freely, then what Zhao Biao on King Jin's side said about free movement is false.

Fang Xinkai wanted to make a great contribution, but Zhao Biao simply wanted to work hard and preserve his strength.

All because he had just learned that Xie Zhan had announced in a high profile in the city that the Southland and Pingzhou had formed an alliance, and Pingzhou would send troops to help.

As soon as Zhao Biao heard the news, he realized that Pingzhou would either send troops to the East China Sea or directly send troops to the south to relieve Xie Zhan.

Although there was no news from King Jin, Zhao Biao did not dare to be careless. The reputation of Pingzhou's undefeated army has spread throughout the world. He must preserve his strength for King Jin and Donghai.
