After Wang Junlin received Pei Shiju, he had a drink with Pei Yuanqing that night, and the next day he led his army and set off from Fanyang County with Pei Shiju, without any delay.
Cui Qingping, the governor of Shanggu County, is very good at escaping, and he knows that Fanyang County is the safest and the bandits would never dare to cross the border to catch him, so he fled to Fanyang County as soon as possible. Although he is a waste, after all, he has been the county guard for more than ten years.
He was still very familiar with the situation in Shanggu County, so Wang Junlin specially asked someone to take him on board the ship.
At this time, Cui Qingping was standing next to Wang Junlin, looking at the densely packed bandits on the other side of the Dashi River, staring at them with indifferent expressions and bloodthirsty. He couldn't help but leaned closer to Wang Junlin, but he still felt that his legs and feet were weak, his face was pale, and he couldn't help but lean towards Wang Junlin.
Regardless of how embarrassing he looked at this time, he said to Wang Junlin with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, these bandits are really committing heinous crimes. Under the official rule, countless people were massacred and killed by them. It was cruel and cruel. Such evil bandits cannot be tolerated by heaven.
Please, Your Majesty, be sure to uphold justice for your subordinates and avenge the bloodshed of the people of Shanggu County!"
"Perhaps Wei Daoer and Liu Jicheng across the street think that killing you is the only way to avenge the blood of the people of Shanggu County." Wang Junlin put his hands behind his hands, glanced at Cui Qingping with a half-smile, and said casually.
Cui Qingping's face changed, and he did not dare to say anything for a moment. He is the younger brother of the current head of the Qinghe Cui clan, one of the seven sects and five surnames with a history of thousands of years. His status is extremely respected, even in the face of the current emperor Yang.
Guang, the latter would also give him certain courtesy. This was the reason why the imperial decree of punishment had not yet arrived even though he himself had escaped despite losing Shanggu County.
But Cui Qingping remained silent in front of Wang Junlin, not daring to show any dissatisfaction at all, because he knew that Wang Junlin could easily make his life worse than death without any scruples.
In fact, two years ago, when Wang Junlin wiped out the Fanyang Lu family, which also had a millennium of heritage, and distributed millions of its fertile land to the poor people, he had already broken up with all the wealthy families.
In the eyes of the powerful family, Wang Junlin could destroy the Lu family, take the millions of acres of fertile land as his own, or divide it among his subordinates and officials, but they would never tolerate it being given to the untouchables. This had already touched their nerves.
Their bottom line has shaken the foundation of their rule, which is why the Dugu clan suddenly decided to put Wang Junlin to death.
At this time, Wang Junlin and his party saw the gate of Matian County open not far away, and two men, one civil and one military, led nearly ten thousand cavalry galloping towards the Dashi River.
Next to Wang Junlin, Shen Guoer had already picked up the telescope and handed it to Wang Junlin.
After Wang Junlin saw it, he handed it to Pei Shiju next to him, pointed at the two leading cavalrymen of more than ten thousand, and said to Pei Shiju who was standing side by side: "The man with a dark face, a tall body, and a scar on his face must be Wang
Wei Dao'er, the first general under Xuba, is said to be extremely brave. And the middle-aged man wearing a uniform must be Liu Jicheng, Wang Xuba's military advisor, and he is quite talented."
"Your Majesty, all ports and shores where large ships can approach are guarded by rogues. Do you want the ships to approach and use long-range attacks to disrupt their defenses first? Then we will seize the beach and land." Luo Shixin looked at the densely packed rogues on the shore and heard Wang
Jun Lin said that Wei Dao'er was extremely brave, and he licked his lips with a sinister smile on his face, his heart filled with fighting spirit.
This time Wang Junlin only brought out Yuchi Jingde's Tiger Battalion with 20,000 troops and Luo Shixin's Tornado Battalion, which integrated more than 3,000 Insect Black Cavalry and expanded it to 10,000 troops. In addition, he brought out fifty warships.
The ship's 5,000-strong naval force totaled only more than 30,000 people. With these men and horses to deal with Wang Xuba's more than 200,000 men, it was only Wang Junlin who had such confidence and confidence.
"Don't worry, let them run with us first. Anyway, we have a boat to ride on, and they can only rely on two or four legs." Wang Junlin shook his head and said thoughtfully.
Next to him, Pei Shiju hesitated to speak. Of course he knew that with the strength and means of the Far East Army, any river bank could be attacked as long as he was willing to pay a certain price. But he is one of the few smart people in the world, and of course he knew that Wang Junlin
He has his own purpose, and he must not simply think that he is really here to rescue Huer and annihilate Wang Xuba and his gang of rebels.
Cui Qingming also wanted to say something, but because of Wang Junlin's understatement just now, he didn't dare to say anything.
The southeast wind carried drizzle, the sails were like crossbows, and the boats were moving like arrows. Fifty warships continued to sail northwest along the Dashi River.
Liu Jicheng had sent his cavalry to Baihe County to report to Wang Xuba, and he stayed behind to command and control the rogues to pursue them along the Far Eastern Army warships. Wei Daoer left Liu Jicheng with 5,000 cavalry to control the 80,000 rogues.
With 5,000 cavalry and a fleet decorated with the Far Eastern Army, they chased after them.
On the plain on the southwest bank of the Dashi River, five thousand cavalrymen trotted and spread out in a cone shape. Because the terrain was undulating and the horses and riding skills were uneven, the team soon stretched two or three miles long.
Originally, Wang Xuba only had 2,000 cavalry, but after occupying the entire county, he captured a lot of horses from Shanggu County soldiers and Boling troops. Considering that he might have to face Wang Junlin, a formidable enemy, Wang Xuba asked Wei Daoer to gather enough.
Ten thousand cavalry are training intensively these days, so for Wang Xuba and Wei Daoer, these ten thousand cavalry are really not easy.
To be honest, if he were not dealing with a peerless warrior like Wang Junlin, he would now be worried that the Far Eastern Army would suddenly land on the West Bank at any time, and the scattered bandits on the West Bank would certainly not be able to stop the Far Eastern Army. He would have to lead his cavalry to follow up and stop them at any time.
, otherwise Wei Daoer would really be reluctant to ride his horse to chase the warship traveling in the wind on this rainy day and on the slippery mud road along the river bank.
Fortunately, the fleet of Wang Junlin and his party was traveling against the current. The Dashi River was not deep enough and the fleet was not fast enough. Otherwise, if it were in deep water or with a favorable wind, Wei Daoer and his cavalry might not be able to keep up even if they were exhausted.
The two sides chased each other for more than two hours, one on the water and the other on the land. When Wang Junlin suddenly gave an order at a wider area of ββββthe water, the fleet turned around at a speed that stunned Wei Daoer and a group of bandits on the shore, and sailed along the river.
Go back the way you came.
"No, I've been fooled." Wei Dao'er's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly turned his horse's head, trying to gather his cavalry and catch up again, but the horsepower consumption was not small, the Far Eastern Army's fleet was now moving along the current, and the speed
It was much faster than before, but due to the ebb and flow, they could no longer catch up.
When Wei Daoer caught up with the fleet again, Wang Junlin had already led 30,000 men to forcefully disembark at a beach. More than 10,000 bandits on the shore persisted for a short time before being defeated. They cried for their fathers and mothers.
They scattered in all directions until Liu Jicheng arrived with his people and forcibly gathered them together again. Fortunately, Wang Junlin and his party wanted to get the horses on the ship to the shore and could not move fast enough. When Wei Daoer arrived, only two or three thousand people were on board.
