Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Chapter 301: Jiangling Navy

The sky was gloomy, and heavy rain fell from the sky.

At this moment, the Jiangling Navy had received the news, and it took two hours for the 10,000 soldiers of the Jiangling Navy to arrive on the surface of the river in a warship.

They have a total of more than one hundred warships, but these warships are in disrepair for a long time, and the size of the warships is also different. Some warships were so large that they could almost catch up with the warships of the Wu-level navy, but some warships were a little bigger than ordinary fishing boats. There are not many weapons on these warships, there are not many rappels, and there are almost no giant crossbows.

The officers and men of the Jiangling Navy are all lazy. Some soldiers still have weapons in their hands, while others don’t have weapons at all.

In recent decades, the Jiangling navy has not encountered war. Even if the Golden Soldiers invaded, there was nothing about the Jiangling Navy. The soldiers of the Jiangling Navy are also passed down from father to son, and their weapons are passed down from generation to generation. Many soldiers have already sold their weapons for drinking, and the generals will not restrain them at all.

On weekdays, this Jiangling navy can't train either.

Generally speaking, they will gather once a month or two, mainly to issue military pay.

But because of the deductions above, there are not many that they can get.

"The enemy is coming! Lao Tzu is ready! Don't lose Lao Tzu's people later!" On a large ship, the commander of the Jiangling Navy looked at the undisciplined appearance of the soldiers, and couldn't help cursing.

"General, I don't know who the enemy is?" a soldier couldn't help asking.

"How do I know?" Jiangling navy commander coldly snorted.

"I think it's the army of those untouchables in Dongting Lake, right?" said a captain next to him.

"Dongting Lake is downstream, how can it go down from the upper reaches?" Another Xiaowei said.

"Weird, weird! Could it be possible that there are untouchables in the upper reaches of the river?" The school lieutenant said before.

"Okay, needless to say! It should be just some untouchables, vulnerable! Our Jiangling navy is the strongest navy today, no one can beat it! The untouchables are not worthy!" Jiangling navy commanded.

At this moment, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan were also standing on a warship.

The two had changed into red official uniforms at this moment, and they were all looking into the distance.

However, the wind and rain were so intense that it was impossible to see the scene ahead.

They both wondered in their hearts, not knowing who the enemy was.

"From the upper reaches? Numerous big ships? Strange! Lord Huang, who are you after all?" Wang Boyan said.

"It's hard to say! There are no rebels in the upper reaches?" Huang Qianshan was also surprised.

"Master Huang, I have a guess in my heart." Wang Boyan said sharply.

"What guess?" Huang Qianshan said.

"I don't know if this speculation is true or false, I hope it is false!" Wang Boyan frowned and said.

Seeing Wang Boyan's words so uncomfortable, Huang Qianshan smiled slightly and did not ask.

At this moment, a black line appeared in the distance!

Then countless warships appeared in front of the Jiangling Navy!

These warships are huge in size, and the specifications of the warships are basically the same. On top of the warships are densely packed soldiers. All the soldiers wear black armor, and all the soldiers hold strong crossbows in their hands!

The surface of the Yangtze River in ancient times was much wider than that of the current Yangtze River, and the huge warships were everywhere on the water over ten miles long!

Although the fleet on the opposite side has not yet arrived, the breathtaking breath is already suffocating.

At this moment, no one dared to stand in front of this fleet.

Seeing this fleet, the 10,000 soldiers of the Jiangling Navy were immediately stunned.

"No! My guess is correct! It is Emperor Xuanwu of Sichuan and Shu, who led the army south! Lord Huang, leave quickly!" Wang Boyan shouted in horror at this moment.

"Emperor Xuanwu! It turned out to be Emperor Xuanwu? How could this be possible? Does he not want to shut down Shan? He actually came to Jiangnan at such a moment?" Huang Qianshan said in despair.

"Master Huang, get out of here quickly!" Wang Boyan hurriedly grabbed him and said.

"Hurry up and turn the bow of the ship!" Huang Qianshan also yelled at the moment.

"Master Huang, the speed of turning the bow is too slow! We dive and leave!" Wang Boyan said.

Right now Wang Boyan had jumped into the Yangtze River suddenly, Huang Qianshan was taken aback, gritted his teeth, and jumped down! Countless sailors and soldiers around also jumped down, and they hurried toward the river bank.

The speed of the ship on the opposite side was extremely fast, and the rest of the naval officers and soldiers had not yet reacted, and the ship on the opposite side was already overwhelming.

Then, arrows fell like a rain!

Countless crossbow arrows flew into the air, forming a peculiar scenery on the surface of the Yangtze River!

In an instant, there were screams everywhere!

Many navy officers and soldiers fell into the Yangtze River. At this moment, the crossbow arrows were coming, and they had no ability to resist!

As for the navy's warship, there is no ability to resist at all!

If they encounter the fishing boats of ordinary peasant rebels, they can still fight, but now they are facing a hundred thousand elite navy forces from Sichuan and Sichuan!

After this wave of bows and arrows passed, the river surface was quiet for a while, and then the second wave of bows and arrows fell from the sky!

The sound of bows and arrows suppressed the sound of wind and rain, and there was only a "swish" sound between heaven and earth!

After this wave passed, soon, the third wave of bows and arrows struck again!

There are 50,000 god-arm archers under Wu Jie. In the face of such a blow, the Jiangling Navy has only a dead end!

In less than a quarter of an hour, the river surface had completely calmed down!

The surface of the river has been stained red with blood, and countless bodies are floating on the surface of the river. At this moment, the fleet of the Jiangling Navy is also alone in the water of the Yangtze River, floating slowly with the water of the Yangtze River.

Zhao Chen and Wu Jie stood on the bow of the ship, and the rain fell on them, and they were only refreshed.

"Pull away the fleet of the Jiangling Navy on the opposite side, and we will continue to move forward!" Zhao Chen said.

Wu Jie nodded. At the moment, there were already soldiers heading towards the opposite fleet. They first pulled out the Jiangling navy soldiers who were not dead on it, and then dragged those warships to other places.

"Your Majesty, we caught two big fish!" At this moment, Wu Lin shouted from another boat.

"Oh? What big fish is it?" Zhao Chen said.

"It's Huang Qianshan, the former prime minister of Jiangnan, and Wang Boyan, deputy prime minister!" Wu Lin said.

"Send them to my boat!" Zhao Chen laughed.

Not long afterwards, Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan were sent to Zhao Chen's warship.

The two of them were escorted by the soldiers to kneel on the board of the ship. When they raised their heads, they could see a young man in a dragon robe standing in front of them.

The appearance of this young man was somewhat similar to Zhao Gou, but his eyes were more tenacious than Zhao Gou. His eyes swept, and the two of them bowed their heads involuntarily! Even when facing Zhao Gou before, they didn't feel this way. They couldn't bear the gaze of the young man facing him!

Immediately, a name came out of their hearts-Zhao Chen!

Except for Emperor Xuanwu in Hanzhong, who has such a look?

"Do you know who I am?" Zhao Chen said.

"You are His Majesty Xuanwu! We are the ministers Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan, see your Majesty!" Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan hurriedly bowed and bowed three times and said.

"Let's be flat!" Zhao Chen said.

Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan stood up, their heights were about the same as Zhao Chen, but standing in front of Zhao Chen, they somehow felt that they were shorter. Huang Qianshan was shocked, thinking that the temperament of Emperor Xuanwu was far better than Emperor Jianyan, and he had underestimated Emperor Xuanwu before. He thought that in this battle of Guanshan, Zhao Chen would undoubtedly die. Who knew that Zhao Chen led an army to come here.

"How is my navy?" Zhao Chen asked, looking at the river in the distance.

"Very powerful, almost invincible in the world! Among the world's navy, no one can compare to your majesty's navy!" Huang Qianshan said.

"Today, I personally drove a 100,000 navy division into the south of the Yangtze River, and went down the river without stopping, all the way to Lin'an. You said, can I take down Lin'an Mansion?" Zhao Chen said.

"There should be no problem." Huang Qianshan was stunned and said.

"Your Majesty, there are still thirty thousand imperial camps in Lin'an Mansion, and you must be careful about imperial camps." Wang Boyan said.

"Your Majesty’s army is so strong, and the mere 30,000 imperial battalions are not worth mentioning! Your Majesty, the only thing you need to worry about is Zhao Go’s escape! Zhao Go, the usurper, must not let him escape! Once you let him go to Kaifeng and Chang'an generation, Zong Ze, Han Shizhong and others supported him, and he is still your majesty's enemy." Huang Qianshan scolded Wang Boyan.

The two of them were famous treacherous officials in history. Now that Zhao Chen didn't execute them, they were overjoyed. The first thing they thought of was how to please Zhao Chen. As for the former master Zhao Gou, they immediately put him in the ranks of "enemies", and they wanted to help Zhao Chen attack Zhao Gou.

"Thirty thousand Yuying? It is true that Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan of Jiangnan Yuying have already loyal to me!" Zhao Chen said.

"What!" Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan were stunned for a while, and then there was an expression of "ecstasy" on their faces.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case, it is impossible for Zhao Gou to escape! Your Majesty will become the lord of the world!" Huang Qianshan said "overjoyed".

"Your Majesty was originally the eldest son of the Emperor Taishang, and the well-known Emperor of Song Dynasty, he was originally the Lord of the World! Your Majesty, I had no choice but to join the court of Zhao Gou, but we have always been in the heart of Cao Ying! But it seems that Zhao Gou I also saw our thoughts, so we relegated us to the prefects of Jiangling and Yueyang! Your Majesty, even if you do not come, we will send someone to contact you to welcome you!" Wang Boyan hurriedly expressed his "loyalty" at this moment.

"I go to Jiangnan, Jiangnan officials, if you made mistakes before, as long as you are loyal to me now, I will not be blamed! In addition, I have always used talents based on meritocracy! You two will still be the prefects of Jiangling and Yueyang for the time being! If you really have Only, in the future may not be able to rise!" Zhao Chen said.

"Thank you, your majesty, the minister!" Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan were overjoyed and said.

Zhao Chen waved his hand. At the moment, someone took Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan to another boat and put them on clean clothes, not to mention.

"Your Majesty, these two people are Zhao Gou's lackeys, why use them?" The big ship was still going down the river, and Wu Jie was puzzled.

"I want to quickly stabilize the situation in the south of the Yangtze River. On the one hand, I must punish Zhao Gou, and on the other hand, I can only quickly gather people's hearts! This Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan are known to the world to be Zhao Gou's former cronies. The rest of the officials will relax! This is the principle of buying horse bones for money! In the future, I will establish laws and order sooner or later. Now they are loyal to me, and I promised to give them positions! If in the future, they violate the law. , I can't protect them! Moreover, these traitors can become high-ranking officials in Jiangnan, are they mediocre people? Really mediocre people can never become high-ranking officials! They also have talents, and I will use laws and regulations to treat them Leading to the right road! They have been corrupt in Jiangnan for many years and they have enough money. I will not collect their money, but they should do something for the country!” Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty is brilliant!" Wu Jie nodded after thinking for a while.
