Chang Geng took over the battle report, and Gu Yun asked: "How many naval troops in Jiangnan are left?"

"It's hard to say," Chang Geng swept across with a glance, "Chang Jiao has never left the sea, nor has he fought a naval battle. Zhao Youfang was panicked when he died, and fled in all directions - adoptive father, do you remember the rebellion of King Wei back then?"

Gu Yun pinched the bridge of his nose and understood what he meant.

The King of Wei bribed the Jiangnan water and land admiral and half of the navy troops, gathered troops to covet the capital in the small island of Japan. Unexpectedly, before he was ready, he was joined by Gu Yun and Linyuan Pavilion.

It was said to be "the joint effort between Gu Yun and Linyuan Pavilion". In fact, Gu Yun had only two or three Xuanying and a few half-year-old children around him, and Linyuan Pavilion had only thirty people. He had to count the waste like monk who would not take off after wearing heavy armor.

Gu Yun was very powerful in the army. He suddenly appeared and frightened the guilty rebels. This was the reason, but it also proved indirectly that Daliang's navy was indeed a lame leg.

Even a rebellion is not good.

If this happened during the reign of Emperor Yuan and the late emperor, Gu Yun might have the opportunity to intervene in the navy like he did when he rectified the Northern Xinjiang City Defense Forces. Unfortunately, Li Feng was not the kind of soft-hearted person who had to be indecisive in killing people. That kind of thing would not have happened during the reign of the Longan period.

Gu Yun: "Where is Yao Chongze? Are you dead too?"

Chang Geng: "I didn't mention that there are too many people who died."

Gu Yun sighed: "What is the 'Sea Monster'?"

Chang Geng: "It is said that it is like a big octopus, which can lurk in the water and float like a mountain, covering the sky and the sun. Compared with it, the giant kite is like a pigeon landing on the shoulders of a strong man, carrying countless iron claws on his body, which continuously sticks to thousands of small sea dragons. When the tip opens, it can release a large group of eagle armor..."

When Chang Geng said this, his speech paused slightly, and his slender fingers gently tapped the battle report: "If there is such a thing, at least four or five hundred kilograms of purple gold will be burned a day."

Gu Yun glanced at him, Chang Geng shook his head slightly, and said to the end, hiding the second half of the sentence - the Westerners paid such a great price, I'm afraid they were not here to fight a protracted war with them.

"After solving the Jiangnan garrison, there is no worries at sea. The Dagu Port naval army is no match for it. The next step is to reach the capital," Gu Yun pulled down the map on the wall, "Old Tan, how many troops in the capital can be allocated?"

Tan Hongfei licked his chapped lips: "There are two thousand heavy armors in Beidaying, ten thousand light cavalry, and two thousand horse soldiers. There are eighty chariots in total. Each car has three pairs of white rainbows, and one cannon at the end of the head and tail."

This little force is almost the same as the force that has been planned by the Westerners for many years, but it is too much of a drop in the bucket. Gu Yun frowned: "Where is the Imperial Guard?"

"The Imperial Guard is not good. There are less than 6,000 people in total. Most of them are young masters and soldiers who have never seen blood." Tan Hongfei paused for a moment, suddenly remembered something, took out something from his arms, solemnly held it up and handed it to Gu Yun, "By the way, this is what the emperor asked me to bring to the general."

The thing was wrapped in fine palace silk. Those who didn't know what kind of jewelry and jade were inside. When they opened it, they found that it was wrapped in a hideous black iron tiger talisman.

Gu Yun took it and took a look. He bent his lips without a smile: "What else did you do for me at this time? The daylily is cold."

Tan Hongfei didn't know what to say.

Gu Yun threw the Xuan Iron Tiger Talisman to Tan Hongfei: "Okay, since the emperor has made the decision, you can write a transfer order according to his wishes, and send the troops to the two places in Zhili, Shandong to return to defense to resolve the difficulties in the capital, and then let Cai Yanv come out to lead the troops to reinforce... Well, please adjust it first, and you can't transfer it."

Tan Hongfei: “…”

Zhang Fenghan, who was old and weak, did not have the hard hearts of these animals. He was already frightened all the way. He suddenly heard Gu Yun’s implicit voice. Old Lingshu’s face turned pale and he couldn’t help asking: “Master General’s meaning is… the king’s army may not be able to be called?”

Chang Geng replied: "If the information on the battle report is correct, Westerners would not be able to carry too much baggage with them - they can't afford to fight. If they want to kill with one blow, they will land in Jiangnan, and they will inevitably divide their troops from the sea to the capital. They will cut off the passage from the land to the four directions, and besiege us... the order of transfer may not be spread."

Feng Hangong almost sucked over on the spot, sat next to him, and kept breathing.

Chang Geng didn't expect him to react so much, so he quickly poured a glass of water and brought it to Feng Hangong. He skillfully patted several degrees in his heart: "You should be calm, and older people should try not to be overjoyed or sad, otherwise they will easily suffer from stroke..."

Zhang Fenghan grabbed his hand and almost burst into tears: "My Highness, are you born to not know what it means to be anxious?"

"President Fenghan is calm and not impatient. I haven't finished speaking yet," Chang Geng said hurriedly, "When my adoptive father was imprisoned, I was worried that the border would change and I had contacted some friends."

As he said that, he took out a wooden bird from his sleeve.

"This kind of wooden bird needs a special magnet guide, which can send messages to each other among the people holding the magnet. They have received my letter before, and now they should have rushed to the major garrisons. I hope there is still time - if the capital is really besieged, I can send messages to the wooden birds, and they can convey them on their behalf. The black iron tiger talisman and my adoptive father's private seal should be enough to win the letter."

When Chang Geng realized that leaving Xuanying, the long communications from all over the country would have caused the war, he began to use Linyuan Pavilion to start laying out such a huge communication network to prevent problems before it happened.

Tan Hongfei and Zhang Fenghan looked at Chang Geng in amazement.

"It's all a trick of carvings. I can't think of any other way in a hurry." Chang Geng said, "At the beginning, it can be used in emergency without knowing it. If it doesn't last long, once the enemy notices it, this thing will no longer be safe. Any small stone can knock it down."

Gu Yun couldn't say anything in his heart for a moment. When he was in prison, he was worried about Chang Geng. Now it seems that even if he was transferred by himself at that time, he might not be able to do better than Chang Geng.

Not only did he save half of the Xuan Iron Camp, he also kept such a move.

He sighed and felt grateful and relieved, but he felt that the young man who could only close his eyes to avoid him in front of the sword puppet back then shouldn't have grown up so quickly, because he didn't take good care of him.

But in front of outsiders, Gu Yun was inconvenient to express any emotion, and only said lightly: "Your Highness is considerate."

"Let's go, Lao Tan, go to Beidaying with me." Gu Yun took off a wine pot hanging behind the door, looked at the sky, didn't even put on his armor, picked a straw raincoat and strode away.

Chang Geng also stood up: "The adoptive father took a step first, and I will go back to Lingshu Courtyard with Fenghan Gong, count it, and then escort the baggage."

The brief tenderness and ambiguity were wiped out, and the two of them left in a hurry.

Gu Yun and Tan Hongfei led a team of guards, rushed out of the city and headed towards Beidaying.

Gu Yun took the straw raincoat right, and just halfway through the way, the thunder rumbling in the sky suddenly changed and turned into a sharp lightning, slashing down in the cold sky, and the gloomy sky opened like a crack of silk, and a rare heavy rain before the Grain Rain hit the head and face.

For a time, it was pouring in, and the wind and rain were dark.

Tan Hongfei was almost breathless because of the rain. He shook the water droplets on his face hard. He remembered that when he was informing him in the Marquis' Mansion, Huo Dan told him that the Marquis was sick. He couldn't help but squeeze his horse's belly and ran to Gu Yun and shouted: "The rain is too heavy. Master, you have not yet healed the cold. Why not find a place to hide first and wait until the rain stops before rushing..."

Gu Yun shouted: "Look at that cloud, who knows that it can stop in the year of the monkey, horse and month, stop talking nonsense!"

Perhaps it was because the sudden rain came too urgently and unreasonable, Gu Yun suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Xuantie Camp is also called "Black Crow" by the people of the foreign countries. As the leader of the black crow, Gu Yun indeed had a peerless crow mouth. Almost all his ominous premonitions will come true, and he will hit every opportunity and never fail.

Tan Hongfei estimated that Westerners would go north within two or three days - he was too optimistic.

That night, there was a watchtower in Dagu Port.

There were two dust-proof brushes as big as a palm in front of Qianli, who were rising and falling in vain in the rain. Soon after, they were blown down and lowered their heads.

The old tower soldier on duty had to stretch his hand out of the window and find a rusty handle by the window. The lighter there broke for a long time and no one repaired it. He could only use his hand to pull it. He shook the rainwater in his hand, swearing and shook the handle of his long arm, and the gears with teeth that were broken were moaning half-deadly. A small metal umbrella slowly rose and unfolded without having enough food, covering the front mirror of the Qianliyan in front of the bleak wind and rain.

The old tower soldier wiped the water vapor from the glasses of the thousand-mile eye and complained to his companions: "It's also a soldier. People come and go from heaven, domineering and majestic. We're better. Every day, they either sweep the floor or touch dominoes on the tower. They're even calmer than his mother monks. They can't touch any oil and water. There's nothing wrong with it all day long, and they'll have to spend here all year round. They'll almost stop knowing their own women... Alas, this is really evil. Why is it raining so heavily? Where does it get a big grievance?"

The companion swept the floor and didn't raise his head: "You just hope you're fine, right? Didn't you hear the sergeant say that the beacon order has been sent here? If the Westerners come here, you'll have something to do."

"Don't listen to the commander's Luoquanshi. He won't be able to talk about how many days the Westerners are coming?" Ta Bing said, "Isn't Marquis Anding still in the next capital?"

"Half Anding has been put under heaven prison."

"Oh, wasn't that released again..." The old tower soldier said this, as if he had thought a little bit about it, and suddenly said, "Yes, this matter is also very strange. Didn't it be said that Hou Anding rebelled and forced the palace? Why was it released so quickly? Could it be..."

"Shhh," the companion suddenly raised his head, "Stop gossiping, listen!"

A rumble of thunder-like rumble came faintly from the wind, and the watchtower seemed to feel something, shaking.

Thunder?

No, the thunder is coming in waves, how could it be so continuous?

The old tower soldier bent down and lay in front of Qianli, slowly shaking the camera up.

The next moment, his muddy eyes passed through the dark rain screen and unexpectedly encountered a huge shadow on the sea.

There is no such monster in the nightmare, which roars in a low voice.

The old tower soldier thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyelids hard. When he looked again, he saw that the "sea monster" was walking like a flying step. He was just a vague shadow just now. In a blink of an eye, he didn't know how much he had advanced, and it was enough to see clearly.

The dark sea dragon group slid by the murderous intent in the dark night, and the battle flags that were flew in the wind and rain seemed like an ominous soul-summoning banner, with shadows covering the vast ocean.

"Enemy attack..." the old tower soldier spoke with difficulty.

"What?"

The old tower soldier suddenly turned around and roared: "The enemy attacks! The Westerners are coming, ringing the bells and drums! Why are you standing there? Go--"

The rapid drum sound penetrated the sudden rain. The lights on the watchtower, which were originally turning slowly and rapidly accelerated and rotated wildly. It spread ten to hundreds of times, but in just a few breaths, all the watchtowers on Dagu Port sounded drum sounded.

The North Sea Water and Land Admiral Lian Wei's heart was beating almost to explode. He had never dared to close his eyes since he received the news of Jiangnan's defeat and snatched the Qianliyan from the hands of his personal guards.

After just one look, he wailed in his heart, "God" from the front of his chest to the back.

"What should I do with the general?"

"All..." Lian Wei's throat moved, "The long dragon comes first, no need to say hello, heavy artillery bombard... Slowly, get on the iron chain, by the way, all the long dragons go in parallel, get on the iron lock! Connect to form an iron fence outside the port!"

"Fare the White Rainbow--"

"Notify fishing boats and merchant ships in the port to evacuate immediately!"

Lian Wei looked down at his arms. Before the "Beacon Fire Order" could be put away - it was the highest level of war readiness warning in Daliang. Once he received the "Beacon Fire Order", it means that the whole country has entered a state of ready for war at any time.

The signature of the Fenghuo Order is "Gu", which was signed by Andinghou himself.

When the Xuantie Camp was attacked in the northern border, more than a dozen generals of all sizes were wrongly taken off their black armor, put down their wind-cutting blades, and scattered everywhere. They retreated and retired. They retired. They retired. They retired. They retired. They retired. They took people around the dock every day. Sometimes they were in charge of fishermen gathering gambling and making trouble. They even heard that the Beidaying mutiny over the incident that year, and he did not have the courage to stand up like Tan Hongfei to ask for an explanation.

"Travel to Beidaying," Lian Wei tightened his armor tightly, took a deep breath, and shrank his bulging belly back with force, "Report to the Marquis of Anding, Dagu Port was attacked by the Western Navy, go quickly!"

Lian Wei stepped out, remembered something before leaving, picked up the wind-cutting blade that had been standing in the corner of the wall for many years, gently stroked it, and turned around and carried it on his back.

The wind-cutting blade that used to cut yellow sand was already so rusted that even the small groove of purple and gold could not be opened. It became a black iron rod that pressed down on his hands. It must be useless except for the three-minute break in the middle of the night to hit the slap.

However, when he carried it on his body again, he suddenly regained the feeling of being in his mysterious armor and looking down on him.

After years of indulgence and fatness, the snow knife and steel armor were burned into their bones and blood, and they were still there.

The iron fence formed by the long dragons encountered the rushing sea monsters head-on, and they were close to each other. Western warships were like ghosts in the wind and rain, and the wind on the sea could not catch up with them. The crazy wind and waves set off a tide that seemed to be able to swallow the continent. The artillery fire spread across the sky, and countless warships collapsed in a blink of an eye and sank under the surging ocean.

"General, the iron fence may not be able to stop it!"

"General, the ship on the left wing has sunk too much, iron chain..."

"Watch Tower - be careful!"
