After nightfall, the atmosphere in Mengjin Camp became solemn.

At the ferry, dozens of boats and rafts gathered, and two thousand soldiers gathered near the border. Taobao came to the front personally and followed several generals next to him.

"Although there are strange plans ahead, the defense of the camp should not be relaxed. Whether it is planned or not, Mengjin is the fundamental place..."

While waiting for the downstream news, Taobao was also carefully patrolling the battalion and preventing all kinds of things. In fact, he also understood that the possibility of the Jin army launching a night attack was very small when they had a strong advantage. After all, there were many variables in the night combat, and once the dispatching made mistakes in the last battle, it would be backfired. It was usually used to make a big fortune with small gains.

As for Taobao's prudence, it is better to say that he loses confidence than to prevent problems. He is no longer sure of strictly controlling the army, so he can only repeatedly confirm whether he still has control over the soldiers through this kind of extravagant way.

Because of Taobao's patrol, many soldiers' basic rest were disturbed. They were originally on guard last night because the Jin army fleet was slowing down, and they were not allowed to rest during the day due to various dispatches. At this moment, they had to stare at all sleepy eyes and act futilely after doing all kinds of defenses.

"Don't slack off, don't slack off... After this battle, you can expect to return home..."

Taobao wandered around the front, whispering constantly, and the whole person still looked excited and untiring, but the content of the words was boring. Rather than motivating the soldiers, it was actually more similar to chattering and self-comfort.

Time passed quietly, and Taobao could not have been patrolling the camp forever, but he refused the generals' suggestions to ask him to return to the camp to rest, and directly put on armor on the front line to take a nap. Before going to bed, he also instructed the nearby soldiers to wake him up as soon as possible once they noticed movements downstream.

In fact, there is no need to wake up the personal soldiers. Taobao himself slept very lightly. Once there is any movement on the water surface or the night wind suddenly turns sharp, he will wake up immediately, climb the sentry tower and look for a moment, and then return with a despair.

Such people didn't know how many times they repeated, and finally there was a solid movement downstream. Fire lights soared into the sky. The soldiers who had been nervously preparing for the war in the front could not help but cry out, and the personal soldiers hurriedly woke Taobao, who was snoring loudly.

"It's a fire?"

Taobao scooped up a handful of cool river water and patted it on his face. His whole body became energetic. His turbid eyes turned sharp again, and he hurriedly walked up to the watchtower.

"It's already caught fire! General, will you attack now?"

The generals next to him were naturally well aware of Taobao’s arrangement, and there was no shortage of excitement between his eyebrows and eyes.

However, Taobao waved his hand with a serious expression and stared at the direction where the fire light in the east was rising. After a long time, he said in a voice: "The fire light gathers but does not disperse, but is strong but does not mess, it seems to be a fraud... The enemy is powerful and our army is weak. We should not go out lightly. Can we send a light boat to investigate?"

“…not yet.”

When the general heard this, he felt speechless for a moment, so he should not let him go out easily. It was obvious that you saw the enemy's camp set up by the river, so you immediately ordered the division of troops to attack at night and designated the upstream attack plan. You were afraid that the matter would be leaked and you were not allowed to send a ship to see it in advance. Why has it become the recklessness of others?

"How dare you neglect such an inquiry? Make a quick arrangement!"

Taobao paused his feet and roared. Seeing the generals hurrying to make arrangements, he was still angry and said with hatred: "If it was not for the battle... If the first lord was in charge of the army, he would be so contemptuous of the military situation and ignore the safety of the soldiers, he would be the first to kill the sacrifice flag! The first lord was astonishing and gathered many outstanding people under his command. Only in this way can he tremble China and win the battle..."

He stood on the watchtower, still muttering or scolding. At this moment, most people with discerning eyes could see that Taobao was in a bad state.

However, he himself was still unaware of it, and he had already talked about the old story of the First Lord Shi Le crossing the river to Fangtou in his early years: "... So what if the boats in the south are strong and fierce? The destiny of heaven is not blessed, it is all false! The First Lord went on a expedition to the Huai River and returned without defeat. People at that time said that they would die. However, we, such as the loyal and brave men, who had forgotten their orders, crossed the river with wild trees and grass, and broke through more than ten thousand people in Fangtou. It was ridiculous that the thief master looked towards Bing and died in his dream... Alas, in this world, he was in a knife to survive, how could he sleep and hope to see..."

"General, general, the bandit army had expected ambush. Two thousand stolen camps were mostly shot in the river..."

After nearly half an hour, the news finally came back from the audience. As the general ran, his armor was hanging loosely on his body, and he felt like he was losing his parents.

"It's really a fraud! Haha, the raccoon Chen Wei and Zhou Tu are known for knowing soldiers and good at fighting. They never set up grand formations and tricking tricks. It's shameful! If even such traitors can accomplish things, there is still fairness in the world..."

When Taobao heard this, he was not panicked, but instead showed the tone of predicting the enemy's victory. He laughed loudly, and did not care about the two thousand soldiers who died in the river after failing to steal the camp.

"This, this..."

Seeing Taobao like this, several generals who hurriedly arrived here were shocked. The personal leader who had been staying by Taobao's side finally couldn't help but hurried down to the watchtower, summoned the generals to the shadows, and whispered a few words quietly.

Several generals were even more shocked when they heard that Taobao was suspected of being palpitations and lost their hearts. After a long time, one general roared: "When will the disease show?"

Hearing this question, the other generals were also eyeing the leader of the personal soldiers, and they were extremely angry. It was not easy for them to work hard to stay in the guest town. As a result, as the strong enemy approached and the war was about to come, they were told that they were actually being pointed at by a madman during this period!

The leader of the personal soldier took a small step back, his expression full of vigilance: "What are the generals? The lord has been in charge of his army for a long time. If we had not tried hard to maintain it, how could we be safe until now? Now that the strong enemy is approaching, tens of thousands of soldiers are looking up to life and death, and the battle is unfavorable. The lord is forced to this point. Even if he is in a daze, he is worried about the safety of the soldiers! The fierce battle is imminent, and you don't want to respond to the enemy. Do you still have to eat the old master first?"

"How could it be...how could it be?"

"If I had known that the disease was already there, I would not have been on guard against Mengjin and retreated to Jinyong. At least tens of thousands of people in Luoyang would have filled their lives!"

When the generals heard this, they felt completely disappointed. Now, they have no way out. If the opponent is someone else, they may still have the idea of ​​surrendering to the enemy. However, since the southern thief Chen Weizhou advanced north, no one of them could save their lives if any Hu general was defeated in the battle!

Their troops were originally from the Shouchun campaign in the south a few years ago. None of the old generals and soldiers killed Jin people and abused China for a long time. They dared not expect Chen Weizhou to spare them!

At this moment, the sky was gradually dawning, and a little golden light in the east broke through the clouds, illuminating the golden scales on the river. But on the river further away, the huge fleet of Jin army had already sailed towards it with the rising sun.

Thousands of sails competed, and the crowd was excited, and the sound of drums was thunderous, and the sound waves hit the dull Mengjin camp. It was not until this moment that the huge and high-spirited military power of the Jin army was completely presented to the Heluo defenders. It was not until this moment that they realized that even without many difficulties and variables, even if the two armies fought grandly, whether Taobao was crazy or not, facing such a powerful opponent, the possibility of their victory was slim.

"ah……"

Just as the generals were speechless, Taobao on the watchtower suddenly burst out with a shrill scream. The sword was held in his hand and kept slashing towards the void, roaring in his mouth, and roaring in his mouth, showing his crazy attitude.

"The strong enemy has reached it, and it is useless to think too much. All the generals fight each other and let them live in peace. If you escape by chance, you will pour a pot of turbid wine into the grave and live a coexistence for several years."

The leader of the personal soldiers sighed and summoned his personal soldiers to surround the watchtower here, and did not allow others to approach Taobao to harm him.

As the Jin army fleet gradually approached the Mengjin camp, the entire camp became shocked. Hundreds of warships connected to the side boards, and tens of thousands of soldiers were marching up and down, with murderous auras full of mountains, the sun was lost in color and the mountains and rivers were shaken.

"Enter the formation, quickly enter the formation!"

Amid Taobao's crazy laughter on the watchtower, the generals ran into the camp, drove the soldiers into the formation, shouting loudly: "The people of Jin are cruel, and they will not leave any living! If we want to return home, we must kill the powerful enemy!"

Compared with the enemy camp's emergency response, the Jin army fleet was much more solemn. The fleet that stretched for several miles had almost no other abnormal sound except for the heavy drums and the sound of ships breaking through the waves.

Facing the enemy's floating weir move set up by the river bridge, Li Hong did not choose to avoid it, but chose to connect the iron chain to the ship, which was head-on. Similar waterway defenses were not without more clever response plans, such as blocking the load-carrying horizontal railings of large ships, or disbanding the ship array and robbing sideways.

But in this way, it will take more time. But at present, it is not the only one who attacks the various passes of Luoyang. If you break the pass a little later, you may miss the great contribution of regaining Luoyang. Only by fighting for this line can you lead the army.

A dozen warships in front of the battle were moving forward rapidly, followed by hundreds of small warships. After a few loud roars on the river ahead, the giant trees of floating weirs rushed down the river, as if they were storming dragons swimming on the river surface, and arrived in a moment. The soldiers on the warships in front abandoned the ship and jumped into the river as soon as the floating weir broke. A light boat rushed forward to salvage and rescue the people, and then quickly dispersed on the water surface.

With the loud bang, the giant trees on the floating weir directly hit the empty ships connected by iron chains. Just by collision, more than half of the ships were destroyed. The giant trees had not yet fallen and stuck between the wreckage of the boats and pushed the line behind them for about a while. The ships that were receiving the soldiers in the rear could not escape, and nearly half of them were overturned by the huge waves aroused, and the soldiers fell into the water.

The power of this floating weir is indeed extremely great. The first wave of attacks alone destroyed the front of the Jin army. On the river bridge, there is still two remaining force to impact. The river bridge and Mengjin Pass City are vertically at an angle, and the Guan City is extremely water-leaving. If you want to attack vigorously, you must approach the warship to get one or two command heights.

Therefore, if the Jin army wants to truly attack Mengjin Pass City, it must deal with two similar shocks!

"Don't panic, hold the wood to rush to the pass! Mr. Liang has always treated the soldiers with preferential treatment, and those who first climb to the throne are expected to be named marquis!"

On the front line that was defeated by the floating weir, as the giant trees rush to extinguish, small warships surviving on the water gathered again to rescue those comrades who fell into the water. Most of the soldiers in the front line of the Jin army were armed with vine armor to reduce their weight and reduce the risk of drowning.

The soldiers were salvaged one after another, but were not discouraged by setbacks. They grabbed the nearly two feet long bamboo guns, galloped lightly, as fast as an arrow that broke the string, and rushed straight towards the enemy's water gate!

The water gate is the gateway of the defenders entering and leaving. At this time, hundreds of defenders were preparing to board the ship and enter the water to take advantage of the chaos to kill the Jin army. Unexpectedly, the Jin army rushed so rapidly. Seeing those overloaded light boats rushing straight towards them, they were stabbed directly by the bamboo guns before they even had time to hide!

"Quick shooting skills, shoot these Jin thieves to death!"

The roar of the defending generals sounded on the top of the city walls of Guancheng. However, before the rain of arrows sprinkled, nearly a thousand Jin army soldiers had dived deep into the water. Here, boats and rafts were stacked. Not to mention the rain of arrows, even if it was throwing stones, once they reached the bottom of the water, their lethality was severely limited!

"Continue to attack and strive to take down the enemy's Watergate in a wave!"

The general in the front row was Xu Ning, the commander of Xuzhou. Such a violent attack, the casualties were imaginable. In particular, these soldiers were the elite troops of the army who had settled down. Xu Ning was heartbroken every time he died. But he also knew that this was not the time to preserve his strength. Only by killing great achievements could he climb up and stand firm in the entire Jiangbei Army.

The troops of the Xuzhou Army may not be as good as the Huainan Army in large-scale battles, but the bravery they showed in this fierce level competition is really eye-catching! The generals and their soldiers are not only governing and dependent relationships, but also have a kind of coexistence that is close to their family.

Although Xu Ning was still supervising the battle later, all his nephews who were powerful and capable of holding swords were in the charge array. Even Li Bing, the eldest son of Li Hong, was sent to charge.

They are arrogant soldiers and are away from the king's orders, but because of this, their own power and interests are less protected by the king's orders and rituals. If they want to maintain their prosperity, only fathers and sons will fight with their lives one after another. If the children are not worthy, even if they are not annexed by the same kind, their tribes will be dispersed and lost. Therefore, even if they are rich, they will still be in their hands and dare not slack off.

Water Gate is the place where a life gate of Mengjin Pass City is located. Once it is broken, the enemy can rush straight to the central camp. By then, the fierce battles inside, and no matter how solid the Pass City is, it will become a useless decoration.

The ferocity of the Jin army was completely beyond the imagination of the defenders. In the collision of those clutches at all costs, the outer wooden fence defense line had already been vulnerable.

The boats and rafts that had previously gathered near the Water Gate have now become an excellent protection for the Jin army to swim and attack. One by one, the Jin soldiers and water ghosts crossed the area covered by the walls. At first, there were dozens of people, and they could be easily shot and killed by the defenders near the Water Gate. However, as more and more swims, the defense line was gradually shaken.

Because they had to swim, it was difficult for these Jin soldiers to carry too heavy weapons, but they held the sharp blades hidden more than a foot in their ribs, and once they rushed out of the water, they bowed and snatched their bodies. Even if they were caught in an arrow, they could still grit their teeth and pull out the arrows. Regardless of their own blood flowing, they pushed the arrows into the enemy's body with their backhand!

"This is not a human... they are ghosts, life-seeking ghosts!"

Faced with such a fearless impact, the defenders were all frightened and their arms were trembling, and they couldn't even hold the bowstrings. Some people howled and fled backwards, unwilling to face such an opponent. This triggered a chain reaction, and the soldiers on the Water Gate defense line began to flee on a large scale.

Hundreds of Jin soldiers gathered near the Water Gate, wet and couldn't tell whether it was blood or water. Several broken ships were dragged to the water Gate and stuck the passage. Then the hundreds of people picked up weapons and waited for the subsequent reinforcements to arrive one after another, and they went straight to the Heqiao checkpoint northwest of Mengjin.

"I am brave and strong, and I am not worthy of the great governor's heavy use!"

Seeing that the war between the pass had a breakthrough, Li Hong wiped the water stains on his face, not knowing whether it was sweat or tears. He deliberately did not look at the bodies that had already filled the water gate and the river surface that had been soaked in blood. He ordered the drums to rush together, and more and more warships rushed to Mengjin Shuitu Pass City.

The fierce battle lasted for more than an hour, and the battle had even spread to Heqiao and Guancheng City. As the war progressed, the advantage of the Jin army became more and more obvious, and more soldiers were able to devote themselves to the battle.

Lu Yong, who was ordered to set up a camp first, led his army to meet him. Seeing that the victory opportunity in Mengjin Pass was locked, he couldn't help but sigh: "It takes half a day to make such a strong pass. General Li is really not as strong as possible!"

When Li Hong heard Lu Yong sighing, he should have been very proud, but when he saw the corpses inside and outside the city, he was really unhappy. He just said in a stern voice: "Mr. Xu Fang is equally heroic and generous. Since he has been entrusted by the Grand Commander, he will sacrifice his life to seize the pass and serve him!"

After hearing this, Lu Yong held his fists to show respect, and then stood beside Li Hong and said with emotion: "The Grand Governor has always said that China is in trouble, and the world is mourning. How can an angry and brave man be born in the sky? If he can gather all his strength, how can the four barbarians and ugly people be defeated!"

"We are very lucky to be able to gather all the strengths, control all the heroes, and defeat the four barbarians!"

After hearing this, Li Hong also responded. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a fierce cheer burst out from the head of Guancheng.

Hearing this cheer, Li Hong's spirit was instantly excited, and then turned to look at Lu Yong. Lu Yong also turned his head and laughed: "The gates have been obtained, and the old capital is in sight! General Li pioneered and advanced bravely. I led my troops to fight against traitors. The defenders in this area have been ugly for a long time and cannot be separated in life. This is not enough to prove their power and revenge!"

Before and after Mengjin broke through, the other checkpoints were advanced. In the long-distanced Yique, the southern gate of Luoyang, King Qiao led the people to the trap outside. Shen Yun first climbed through the pass. Nearly a thousand remaining people inside were driven into the wilderness and shot. After passing the pass, Xie Yi led 3,000 cavalry to rush straight to Wuguan west along the Heluo Plain, and the rest of them were knocked straight to the south of Luoyang City under the leadership of King Qiao!

Located in Huayuan Pass on the southeast side of Luoyang, Mao Bao led three thousand elite soldiers to travel hard and finally climbed over the mountains and looked straight at the remnant city of Luoyang.

Outside Hulao Pass, Guo Song was bleeding all over his body, and his injuries were added. He had to rely on the support of his soldiers to barely come in to see the Grand Commander, and bowed: "I am lucky to be unwilling to be the last general!"

The sky has clouds and clear clouds, the moon has fullness and waning, and the sun has hidden appearance. The world is always full and declining, and people are bound to be flawed. If the Jin Dynasty is not guarded, the Hu Chou will be chased. If you have good intentions, the heaven will not let you down! If you are in control of the powerful soldiers, you can ask the four barbarians. Who can avoid being killed by killing people?

"The soldiers entered Luoyang! All the thieves who hold swords will be killed without mercy!"

Shen Zhezi walked out of the camp and ordered it in public.
Chapter completed!
