Wang Bin's troops of the Pioneer Army built six floating bridges in one breath near the Jiangxin Island of Dajiang.More than 80 warships were deployed on the east side of the pontoon bridge, guarding the Ming army's crossing the river.
The temporary naval division of the Ming army was obviously not enough to resist the main force of the Annan Navy by the captured dozens of warships.However, the Annan Army did not mobilize the navy to counterattack in time.
The scouts from Jiangbei reported that the enemy warships fleeing from Kimaru Prefecture were still retreating eastward at this time; no fleet of Annan Army was found.
After receiving the military report, Zhang Fu's army reacted very quickly. He had already set up the camp and marched west a few days ago, approaching Mumaru Prefecture.
Zhu Gaoxu thought for a while and thought that it was a destiny that the main force of the Ming army crossed the river from the floating bridge...
He put on his armor and packed his belongings.The two women in the room were chattering endlessly, and the conversation mixed with Annan dialect was completely incomprehensible.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't say a word and was only busy with his own trivial matters.
These days, he asked the two little ladies to sleep together and have fun day and night in the headquarters. After he enjoyed his life, he has become like a sage and has no interest in women.
He also found that the two girls didn't know anything. They liked to talk about the intrigues between singing girls, who was ugly and who was beautiful, and Zhu Gaoxu had already felt bored.
He picked up his helmet and walked out of the bedroom.At this time, two women sent it out. The tall one was named Yufang and could speak Chinese. She asked: Do you want to take us away?
Zhu Gaoxu said: In a while, eunuch Cao Fu will come to get my things, you can follow him.
The guards in the yard followed, and Zhu Gaoxu ordered: Summon brothers from the ritual guards, let's cross the river immediately.
Zhao Ping clasped his fists and said: The last general will get the order!
...Wang Bin's vanguard army had crossed the river in the morning.Zhu Gaoxu took his personal army across the floating bridge. When he arrived at the south bank of the river, he saw that corpses were thrown everywhere behind the fortifications by the river.
The body was not buried and the blood was not completely dry, so the battle here didn't last long.Zhu Gaoxu came to the riverside with a horse riding while observing the situation on the shore.
Near the river, there is a long trench that is endless, filled with sharpened hard bamboo.Behind the trench is a waist wall and a fence with hard bamboo patches.
However, the Annan Army's defense line did not seem to have any effect.
After Wang Bin's troops crossed the river from the floating bridge, they attacked the defenders along the river.
So the bodies were all behind barriers, but no one died in the trench.
Most of the corpses scattered by the river were strong men wearing bamboo hats. Many of them were unarmed, and the corpses of well-equipped soldiers were rarely seen.
Zhu Gaoxu walked a long way and saw similar scenes.
He couldn't help but feel a little confused... When the Ming army broke through the river, the defenders had no need to resist, because the Ming army at that time could already attack the defenders in the fortifications from the rear wing.
But why did the Annan people on this line of defense not withdraw in time?
The only reason is probably the chaotic command of the Annan Army on the Western Front.In addition, the delay in the Annan Army in the river has not organized a navy to counterattack, which has confirmed Zhu Gaoxu's speculation.
...The chaos in Ruan Gonggui's army in Mumaru Prefecture is a weak point in the Annan Army's defense line.
Therefore, the Ming army quickly crossed the river, but to completely break through the Annan army's defense line, there was another city standing in front: Duobang City.
More than 100,000 people from Zhu Gaoxu's troops crossed the river one after another, stationed in two large camps, and chose a small village as the headquarters of the Central Army.
They did not immediately march towards Duobang City, but waited for the Zhang Fu army behind them to cross the river.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu was standing on a large grave behind the village, holding a map in his hand and looking around.
This tomb must be the tomb of a wealthy local household. It is very tall, surrounded by large stone slabs, and in front of it there are stone tablets carved with patterns.
However, at this time it became a commanding height on the nearby flat terrain.
In the horizon to the west, there are many shadows of mountains, and the steep mountains in the distance are the western mountains of Annan.The west mountains are endless, and the north and south are moving eastward.
To the east is a winding river, which flows north and south in this area.
Xishan and Dajiang form a terrain that looks like a child... and Duobang City (near Xishan Province) is located on the narrowest corridor in the middle and is built on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
Duobang City is not in the river bend southward in the river; it is also a place where neither hiding the wind nor gathering water, or even on the air outlet.
But for this reason, it is a barrier to resist the Ming army's journey eastward!
There is a valley passage in the middle of the Xishan Mountains, leading to the Heishui River and reaching the southern coastal areas of Annanguo.
Zhu Gaoxu did not plan to take the Xishan Road because his goal was to seize the richest Red River Plain in Annan Kingdom; to achieve this goal, he had to conquer Shenglong (Hanoi).
If you want to take Shenglong directly from the plains, the best way is to take Duobang City and then advance east along the river!
This road has simple terrain and fewer variables, so you can win with your strength!
...At this moment, a general walked over quickly from the village. He stood in front of the grave, then walked around the side of the big grave, and then clasped his fists and said: Prince, General Zhang, the Marquis of Xincheng, has arrived!
knew.Zhu Gaoxu responded.He put away the picture in his hand and jumped straight from the grave.
Several generals followed each other and Zhu Gaoxu returned to the village.He walked into a large tiled house and immediately bowed enthusiastically: Marquis of Xincheng, I am lucky to meet you!
Zhang Fu clenched his fists and said vigorously: Pay a visit to His Highness the King of Han.
Watch the tea!Zhu Gaoxu shouted and asked Zhang Fu to sit next to the square table in the main room.Zhang Fu thanked him and then said directly: Let’s conquer Duobang City in the next step?
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said: That's right.
The two of them talked about military information and had no explanation at all. They immediately reached a consensus: Duobang City.Zhu Gaoxu had already thought about the reason, but what about Zhang Fu?
Zhang Fu said again: His Highness the King of Han is set up in the northwest of this place.I think it is better to stay away from the camp for the time being.
Zhu Gaoxu said in a casual tone: General Zhang is right, there is a valley passage leading to the Heishui River.
After hearing this, Zhang Fu immediately showed a relieved expression and stopped talking about this matter.
Both of them believed that they would attack Duobang City and not take the big road of Xishan; however, the Annan Army might go.After the Annan Army detoured from that road, it could attack the Ming army's back and forth.
Zhu Gaoxu deployed a large camp at the entrance of Xishan Valley, and this was the way to prevent it... Since Zhu Gaoxu mentioned that passage, Zhang Fu understood his intention.So there is no need to say much.
Zhang Fu pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: The King of Han divided his troops and camped, and his troops were dispersed; more than 100,000 infantry and cavalry under his command were in full swing without a major battle.How about letting the attack continue in Duobang City?
Zhu Gaoxu was slightly stunned.He had no reason to refuse for a moment, and without thinking too much, he immediately replied: Since the Hou of Xincheng volunteered, he would like to win the public flag!
Zhang Fu stood up, clasped his fists and said: He is fulfilling his mission!Please say goodbye.
Before the two of them could say a few words, the tea was served just now and before they could drink it, Zhang Fu was about to leave.
Zhu Gaoxu did not try to keep him, so he got up and sent Zhang Fu to the door of the house, and then asked a general to take Zhang Fu and others out of the village.
Watching Zhang Fu's back leave on the dirt road at the entrance of the village, Zhu Gaoxu turned around and the military general Wang Yu next to him said: General Zhang is really an impatient person.
Well... Zhu Gaoxu sent out a meaningless tone.
Wang Yu said again: General Zhang came from afar just to say a few words?
Zhu Gaoxu said casually: Those few words are useful, and it is nonsense to say too much.
The general was dull and didn't understand General Zhang's words. What could it be for... Wang Yu frowned.
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: Deputy Wang Qianhu is working hard, and you will naturally understand when you are promoted to commander of the guard.
Wang Yu's eyes were bright and he said excitedly: Thank you, the prince for his cultivation!
During the Battle of Mumaru Prefecture, Wang Yu led his troops to reinforce the city and fought bravely.
Zhu Gaoxu promoted him to three levels that night, and Wang Yu was promoted from a hundred households to a deputy thousand households.
However, Zhu Gaoxu discovered that the general Wang had just risen and the heat was still a little bad.
Generals are not only senior military vocational colleges, but also need to be trained through war.
When Zhu Gaoxu walked into the tiled house, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the entrance of the village.
What Wang Yu said just now seemed to make some sense, and Zhang Fu seemed to be very anxious.Usually, this nobleman is very calm and composed, and Zhang Fu is not an impatient person.
Zhu Gaoxu thought for a moment and remembered that when he was on the north bank of the river, he was responsible for attacking Mumaruzhou Castle on the western front and Zhang Fu was responsible for water battles on the eastern front.
As a result, in a few days, Zhang Fu gave up the deployment in the east and turned around and came west.
So General Zhang seems to have the intention of comparing and is not convinced?
But Duobang City is not Mumaru Prefecture, Zhu Gaoxu guessed that Zhang Fu was going to have a big drink...
When Zhu Gaoxu decided to attack Mumaruzhou before, he thought Ruan Gonggui had no ability, so he wanted to take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.As a result, the chaos of the enemy troops in the water and land of Kimaruzhou exceeded expectations.
Ruan Gonggui's generals defended the city in a barely manner, and lost the city with high walls and heavy troops in two days; the navy command was in chaos and missed the counterattack opportunity; even the defenders on the south bank did not retreat, and countless heads were given in vain. Thousands of Ming troops left the Annan army's bodies to be thrown away the entire riverside.
But the city of multiple countries is different.
Its fortifications were even stronger. As soon as Zhu Gaoxu entered the territory of Annan Kingdom, he heard that Annan Kingdom had strengthened the walls of Duopan City many times.
Duobang City is closer to Shenglong City, and Annan Guoxin can directly manage the defense here.
Even if the Hu regime is unable to properly manage the Thousand Mile Line of Defense, Duobangcheng is already located in the central area, and the deployment will not be too chaotic.
Before Zhu Gaoxu arrived at the foot of Duobang City, he felt that the city was difficult to attack, as if he had seen the tragic situation of blood flowing into a river.
Zhang Fu actually volunteered. No matter what he meant, Zhu Gaoxu was still very satisfied.
The temporary naval division of the Ming army was obviously not enough to resist the main force of the Annan Navy by the captured dozens of warships.However, the Annan Army did not mobilize the navy to counterattack in time.
The scouts from Jiangbei reported that the enemy warships fleeing from Kimaru Prefecture were still retreating eastward at this time; no fleet of Annan Army was found.
