Chapter 136: Soldiers send Yuyao

"What?" In an instant, Wang Ningzhi's expression changed drastically, and he asked anxiously: "Be serious about this? How powerful is Sun En's troops?"

Wei Feng gave a solemn greeting: "The news I just received was reported quickly. According to beacon observations, the sea ships covered the sky and the sun were as many as thousands. From this, it is estimated that the troops should be around 100,000!"

"Pu~~" Wang Ningzhi's legs suddenly became weak, and he collapsed in Xie Daoyuan's arms, muttering to himself: "It's over, it's over, this traitor is endless, just staring at my Kuaiji! A hundred thousand army, what should I do!"

Although he had already expected that Sun En would not give up and would not engage in another invasion as he did last year, when the news came, Xie Daoyun also looked solemn. She forced herself to calm down and helped Wang Ningzhi, and said unhappily: "Wang Lang, isn't there General Wei? Is the preparations for this year in vain? Why are you panic? Fortunately, there are no outsiders, otherwise, it depends on where your face of Wang's family in Langya is going to be!"

Wei Feng hurriedly promised: "Please rest assured by the Lord and Mrs. Xie. Mo Jiang and his brothers have been waiting for a long time. Sun En usually entrenched on the island, and there are thousands of islands outside Kuaiji. If you want to explore his nest one by one, you will not be able to complete it after several years. You can only fight once and gradually weaken his power to finally eliminate the disaster. Mo Jiang can defend Shanyin last time, and this time it can also protect the entire Kuaiji area!"

Wang Ningzhi felt a little relieved and asked again: "General Wei, how do you want to act?"

Wei Feng thought, "Sun En landed, and it would be more than a hundred miles from Shangyu to Yuyao, but it is hard to judge where to get ashore. In order to minimize Sun En's damage to Kuaiji, the last general led 5,000 cavalry to the Yuyao River, and 10,000 invaders followed him. Shanyin and Yuyao about 180 miles. The last general left today and would arrive in Yuyao at night. At the same time, he would also ask the lord of the palace to report this matter to the court and send reinforcements!"

"General Wei, are you going to Yuyao?" Wang Ningzhi was stunned, and then he shook his head like a rattle: "No, you can't leave. What should you do if you leave Shanyin? If Sun En divided his troops to attack, how can he resist? He has an army of 100,000!"

Wang Ningzhi had another subtext. There were only 20,000 troops in Shanyin. Wei Feng took away 15,000 troops. He had no confidence in relying on only 5,000 people. Wang Ningzhi remembered the tragic tragic when he defended the city last year. According to his plan, he simply couldn't go out. He wanted those county towns and defended Shanyin with 20,000 troops. When the court came to help, he responded to the external alliance and defeated Sun En.

Xie Daoyun obviously had the same concerns. She did not persuade her this time, and her confidence was not too strong.

Wei Feng smiled and said, "Yuyao and Shangyu have just settled down. If you abandon the local scholars and commoners, they will only rely on rebellion. What's more, as the inner historian of Kuaiji, you will inevitably have people who are tempted to gossip about the root of Shanyin. I will be worried that it will have adverse effects!

More importantly, the Northern Palace Army can no longer count on it, and the court has limited troops and the imperial guards are known to be the only ones, so they may not be able to break Sun En. If the last general trapped the lonely city and was surrounded by Sun En digging trenches, he was afraid that the whole city would starve to death and take the initiative to attack, just to take the initiative!

Please rest assured that the Lord of the House and Mrs. Xie, the general has responded properly. If Sun En divided half of his troops to attack Shanyin, the five thousand troops would be enough to defend for ten days and half a month. The general had cavalry in his hands and could attack Sun En's army at any time. If the time was right, he could take Sun En's head from the battle formation. At the same time, Sun En had a large army of 100,000, and consumed countless food and grass every day. The general led his army to fight, just to prevent him from taking food. If the food and grass were cut off, he would either withdraw back to the island or collapse without fighting. In short, the general could guarantee that Kuaiji would be foolproof!"

Wei Feng said this to this extent, and it was reasonable and well-founded. Wang and Xie were not familiar with military tactics. Although they were still worried, they could only believe him once. The couple looked at each other and nodded one after another. Xie Daoyun added: "General Wei, Kuaiji asked you for it. I don't want to win quickly, but I want to drag Sun En down. You must be careful!"

Wei Feng bowed heavily: "I will remember the instructions of the Duke and Mrs. Xie, so I will make a quick arrangement. It is noon now, and I will try to start within two hours. I will say goodbye!" After that, he hurriedly left.

Wei Feng returned home first and told Wang Man and Xiaolan the news that he was about to go to war. Although the two women were both worried, after all, the disparity in the army was too great, they could only repeatedly remind them to pay attention to safety. After Wei Feng made a guarantee, he hurried to the military camp and ordered Xiang Mi to lead 10,000 infantry to drive at the latest in the evening. He personally led 4,500 cavalry, 300 guards and 200 female Yasha only carried a small amount of dry food. The weapons, arrows and turtle cloth set off immediately, and the rest were left to defend the city.

Horses can only consume very little physical strength when running empty. If there is a transfer, you can run a distance of 300 miles without resting for a long time. However, Wei Feng is not good, and has not traded with the other 5,000 war horses in Yan State. The whole army is full of single horses, and in addition to carrying people, they have to carry weights. Therefore, every 30 miles or so, you must stop and rest for half a moment. Five thousand cavalry set off from Shenshi (3:00 pm), and run and stop for 180 miles, and they will not reach the Yuyao River until Choushi (one at night).

Zhejiang has its own unique tide, and since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the river has been going out along the south bank. Therefore, it started from the Yue Kingdom. All the regimes have built sea defense barriers on the south bank, that is, earth-built embankments. After thousands of years of repairs, the sea defense barriers are now about two zhang high, six to ten zhang wide at the bottom, and only a half zhang wide at the top to resist the invasion of tides.

The soldiers dismounted one after another on the back of the defense sea base and seized time to rest and feed the horses. Wei Feng took his personal guards and his mother Yasha to the defense sea base and looked towards the river.

The clear moonlight reflects the river surface, and the roar of the river water hitting the embankment, but the water surface is silent and nothing is available.

Zhang Ning looked towards the east entrance and said in confusion: "Sun En should come. Could it be that we missed it? He logged in Shangyu?"

Everyone couldn't help but feel nervous. If they passed by Sun En, the 10,000 infans led by Xiang Mi would fall into danger. Although Sun Enjun was vulnerable to the Northern Army last year, after a year, no matter what, it should be mastered the most basic advancement and retreat, right?

Wei Feng also frowned, and after a moment of pondering, he shook his head firmly: "Sun En should not have arrived yet. We have galloped along the defense sea tower all the way. Every ten miles or so, people climbed to the top to look out. Zhejiang is indeed wide, but with the scale of Sun En's thousands of ships, it is bound to run for more than ten miles in front and tail, and it is impossible to miss it. Tonight is May 11th. Without the help of the tide, he had to go up the river. It was not that fast. Let's wait!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Daolian suddenly exclaimed: "General, look, a boat is coming downstream!"

About ten miles downstream, it spread from the center of the river to both sides, and gradually appeared with sparks of light, and there were no end at a glance!

"Okay! It's better to come than to come!" Wei Feng hit his palms hard, a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes, and turned his head and shouted: "Leave two hundred people to guard the war horses, everyone else comes up for me, prepare the rockets, and give his mother Sun En a good pot!"

"As for order!" The soldiers climbed towards the top one after another.
