Chapter 243: Taking Power in a Different Way (12)

One side is frightened, the other side is a surprise attack, this battle, the fight is earth-shattering, Liu Yu and Fu Rui, the two most promising people of the younger generation in the empire, finally had the first duel.

Liu Yu occupies a favorable location, but he is not well prepared, not enough manpower, in the face of Fu Rui's sudden attack, he once fell into passivity, but at this critical moment, Li Mu embodied the shrewdness of an old bureaucrat, because he actually mobilized the young and strong people of the whole city to the city with a heavy reward, of course, when they came, most of them also carried stones and quilts with them, etc., stones were used to smash people, and the quilts were poured with oil, ignited and thrown down.

Fu Rui's offensive was violent, but originally they were planning to make a surprise attack, for the sake of insurance, Fu Rui brought a small number of ladders and rushing cars, but after all, Shouchun is a big city, not a small town can be compared, Fu Rui's best opportunity, in fact, is the first impact, because at that time, there was no preparation in the city at all, and later, when the people in Shouchun City began to mobilize, it became a very difficult task to simply take a famous city like Shouchun.

However, the coincidence is that Fu Rui's reinforcements and Liu Yu's follow-up troops arrived almost at the same time, Liu Yu's brigade first surrounded Fu Rui between the strong city walls of Shouchun City and himself, and then Chu Yu took a large group of men and horses to surround them, both sides worked with all their strength, fighting desperately outside Shouchun City, and for a time the corpses were piled up into mountains and rivers of blood.

Later, Liu Yu also led his troops out of the city, Fu Rui was not afraid, personally faced the battle, the two sides fought from noon to night, seeing that they could not defeat each other, and each other also suffered heavy casualties, so they chose to stop.

But in this battle, Liu Yu lost nearly 7,000 people before and after, I have to say that even the last time due to internal strife, the Northern Expeditionary Army was also defeated, but it was not so big in a war.

But what is comforting is that after all, after all the great efforts and sacrifices, Shouchun was still saved, avoiding the greater losses that may be caused by the cutting off of the back road.

But after all, Zhongli has been lost, and the Huai River line has been firmly wedged into a nail by Fu Rui, seriously threatening the newly occupied Shandong generation, and Shouchun is too important, Liu Yu himself can't just walk away, otherwise, if there is any problem in Shouchun, the consequences will be too serious.

At the moment, Liu Yu had no choice but to ask for help from Jiankang, and he couldn't cope with it by his personal ability alone.

However, for the sake of safety, he still chose to write a secret letter to Xie An first, after all, the Xie family still cultivates its own power, and although he is now full-fledged, it is not yet time to stand on his own.

Moreover, asking for help is a rather risky thing, because this time I went north, in fact, it was a kind of thing that violated the imperial court system, when I was attacked in the court, in order to calm the incident, I did not hesitate to use the army, forcibly went on the Northern Expedition, and forcibly quelled the dispute by means of war.

This matter, since it was already a fait accompli at that time, then Sima Daozi and others had nothing to say, because in Jiangnan, the Northern Expedition had supreme moral indicators, and no one could openly resist. Whoever opposes the Northern Expedition will be labeled as mài'guó, han jiān, not enterprising, etc., and will be very passive politically.

Moreover, in the initial stage, Liu Yu was indeed victorious, and he also recovered a large area of land, and for a time it can be said that the whole country was jubilant, which is naturally an unquestionable achievement, and no one has any room for beaks. Moreover, Sima Daozi and others had to raise the tone even higher to show that although Liu Yu won the victory of the Northern Expedition, it was certainly a merit, but what was more important was not that Liu Yu fought well, but that they commanded effectively and cooperated properly. The so-called merit is said that they are the ones who are talking about it, and now that there is a problem, the quality of the matter will be different.

We didn't give the order for the Northern Expedition, you have to go, it's just a matter of winning, let's wipe your ass if something goes wrong, then it's strange if we don't take the opportunity to clean you up. It would be weird if those people didn't take the opportunity to pounce like hungry wolves.

After writing the letter, Liu Yu thought about it, due to the urgency of time, he still gave up the idea of sending messengers, anyway, the Beifu Army also has carrier pigeons, and it is completely possible to take carrier pigeons, so the speed will be a lot.

Add fire paint, put in the special bamboo tube, carefully take a carrier pigeon, pack the letter, and then gently send the pigeon to the sky, watching it fly all the way to the south, Liu Yu was relieved.

These well-trained pigeons can go to the Xie family's backyard in two days at most, and then Xie An, who has long been accustomed to receiving secret letters, will also receive letters in time.

The matter was done in time, and Liu Yu, who was extremely tired, was finally able to sleep well.

In the past, in order to ensure that the carrier pigeons could be delivered, at least three carrier pigeons had to be sent at a time to avoid accidents, but this time, Liu Yu obviously only had one carrier pigeon, because the number of carrier pigeons specially trained by the Beifu Army was limited, Liu Yu was too anxious to go this time, so he didn't bring more.

But Liu Yu, who was lucky, thought that it was really close from Shouchun to Jiankang, and it was his own territory, so there should be no problems, so he didn't think much about it.

But he should have thought about it!

People always think that where there will be no problems, there will often be problems, and they don't know how many people have been killed, and they are destined to continue to harm people.

Kyoguchi.

Liu Guo stood by the river with his hands behind his back, looking at the Yangtze River water rolling eastward, and sighed in his heart.

It is the most important military town in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. During the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan ruled this, established a fortress in the city, called a stable, and after Zhang Hong's advice, Sun Quan moved the capital to Jianye and changed its name to Jingkou. Later, the five Hu Chaohua, the Jin court crossed to the south, and Jingkou was once the county seat of Qiaoxuzhou and Qiaodonghai. Therefore, Jingkou became the frontier to resist the northern Zhuhu, because it was bordered by the great river in the north and the steep mountains in the south, and the situation was dangerous, and it was important for the soldiers. It is the north mouth of the Jiangnan Canal, which is connected with the Jianghuai Canal across the Yangtze River. Zhengbei, Zhenbei, Anbei, Pingbei and other generals' mansions and Beizhonglang generals' mansions are permanently located here, because they are called Beifu.

At the beginning of the southward migration of the Jin Kingdom, most of the residents of Jingkou were You, Hebei, Qing, Xu, and Yanzhuzhou expatriates. The people are brave, and May 5 is a drama of fighting power. Jingkou, Jinling expatriates often fight in Jianghuai, Huan Wen once said that the soldiers in the south of the Yangtze River, Jingkou is the best at fighting, so that in order to improve the quality of his army, he also made a special trip to recruit troops from Beijing.

Ten years ago, in view of the fact that Fu Jian had gradually gained the momentum of unifying the Northern Expedition, and the Jiangnan court was still in chaos, if he waited any longer, after the political struggle was decided, I am afraid that Fu Jian's million-strong army had already gone south.

In order to gain time, Xie Anli overrode public opinion, sent his nephew Xie Xuan to guard Guangling, recruited Jianghuai Jinyong, and the expatriates of Jingkou and Jinling County were selected one after another to form the famous Beifu soldiers. It was also by relying on this army, in the Battle of Feishui, relying on the time, location, people, and a little luck, that the Qin army was defeated, thus changing the situation in the world in one fell swoop.

Liu Yu once spent the most important ten years of his life here, and was eventually the most outstanding young man to go out here. However, Liu Yu, who was now napping at the head of Shouchun City, never imagined that the man named Liu Guo he had seen in Qiuzi would appear in his lair at this time.

"Chirp~~~" A short and suppressed chirp seemed a little abrupt in the night, but at this time, when most people were dreaming, no one really noticed such a sound, maybe it was a big bird passing by? Whatever!

That's right, it's indeed a bird, but it's a Haidongqing!

Haidongqing, is a kind of falcon produced in the Great Xianbei Mountain, is the sacred bird in the minds of the Xianbei people, in the Xianbei language, called "Xiongkulu", which means the highest and most flying bird in the world, with the meaning of the god of ten thousand eagles. Legend has it that only one hundred thousand eagles have a Haidongqing, which is the highest totem of the Xianbei people. It represents the spirit of bravery, wisdom, perseverance, integrity, strength, pioneering, enterprising, always upward, and never giving up.

This kind of Haidongqing in Liu Guo's hand was originally obtained by Duan Ye from the bald Wei Tan, there were only two in total, and this time Liu Guo brought back one, and the bald Wei Tan also asked for it from Tuoba, at that time, Tuoba Jue was difficult to live in the bald department, and sent people under the fence, the bald Wei Tan fell in love with this good thing, Tuoba Yan naturally couldn't help but give it, as a relative, the bald Wei Tan was not polite at all.

Now this kind of divine bird happens to come in handy, because very, this big bird with a wingspan of two feet and claws almost the size of the palms of three people flew down like an arrow from the string and landed accurately in front of Liu Guo.

Liu Guo took down a dead pigeon from Hai Dongqing's mouth, and this carrier pigeon was, of course, the one sent out by Liu Yu.

With a slight smile, he skillfully found the letter box from the carrier pigeon, but Liu Guo found the fire paint on it.

The pattern of the fire paint is very complicated, Liu Guo knew at a glance that this must be a way of encryption, but how can this be difficult to defeat Liu Guo?

Very much, in a silk and satin village in Jingkou City, the lights are bright, and seven or eight tailors gather here.

At dawn, a pigeon flew into the sky and headed for Jiankang.

Three quarters of an hour later, three more pigeons flew out of this yard, but in their direction, but in a north-west direction.

Liu Guo yawned a long time, and said slowly: "This time the adults saw it, I don't know what kind of job they will give to my old Liu, alas, in my life, it is really hard work."

Although he said so, Liu Guo's face was a little tired, but his expression was very relieved, because he knew a big event in advance.

Politically, news is always so important, and sometimes, knowing even a little in advance is enough to change the whole situation, ~
