Gong Dingxiao's judgment of the battle situation in Huai'an was completely correct. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mouth clearing.

Amid countless shocked stares on the ground, a hot air balloon depicting golden dragons and cloud patterns slowly flew over the rebuilt city.

"This is my picturesque country!"

Yang Feng stood in the hanging basket under the hot air balloon and looked at his feet with emotion and said.

The Yellow River, the canal, the old Huai River, Hongze Lake, a sluice gate and the Yuehe floodway built to ensure the water level of the canal, together form a spectacular complex water conservancy hub, with different colors of river water to divide this green land, and in this labyrinthine waterway Qingkou City stands at the intersection of the Yellow River and the Huai River, on one side is the Qingkou of the Yellow River into the Huai, on the other side is the canal waterway that separates from the Yellow River, and the mighty river on all sides encloses the Qingkou City into an isolated island in the water.

Truly picturesque!

At the southern end of the picturesque landscape, on the same green land, you can see a magnificent ancient city with a long strip of walls divided into three grids, and almost a third of the city is covered by water, lying quietly on the bank of the canal.

Huai'an.

Xincheng, Jiacheng, Huai'an City as a whole, together form the heart of the Grand Canal, become the most vital node of this majestic project, here is the Ming Prime Minister Caoyun Yamen's station, and today here is also the forefront of blocking the Ming Emperor south, Yuan Zongdi and his 100,000 troops, with the hope of all the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are waiting here to fight to the death with His Majesty the Ming Emperor......

Well, there's no going to be a duel to the death.

"Your Majesty, the preparations are ready!"

Liang Cheng beside Yang Feng said.

"Your Majesty, you ......"

Then he stopped talking.

"My subjects can be trusted!"

Yang Feng said lightly.

At the same time, he stretched out his hand to open a door on the hanging basket, and then jumped out without the slightest hesitation, five seconds later, His Majesty the Emperor pulled the pull rope on a modern parachute behind him, and a colorful umbrella flower instantly opened above his head, and he was only a few hundred meters away from Qingkou City, so he slowly fell to the ground, and at this time, the 20,000 defenders in the city were all stunned by this scene, everyone was looking up at the sky in horror, looking at the parachute that was gradually falling, and the figure in the red dragon robe under the parachute.

"Holy, holy!"

One of the soldiers exclaimed.

Then he subconsciously knelt on the city wall, and then more and more of the same exclamation continued to sound, more and more soldiers also knelt on the city wall, and some even kowtowed to the ground in fear as if worshiping a god, and shouted long live to the figure mountain that fell from the sky.

"Get up, get up, you dogs!"

Qingkou guard, Xu Dingguo, the former Henan general soldier of the Ming Dynasty, looked at the emperor who fell above his head, and yelled at those soldiers in horror.

He continued to whip the soldiers who knelt on the city wall, but unfortunately it could not stop the tide of kneeling, as the red figure in the sky got closer and closer, more and more soldiers on the city wall knelt down and kowtowed, and even the vast majority of the soldiers in the entire Qingkou City were already kneeling to greet the holy car, the desperate Xu Dingguo threw down the whip like crazy, snatched the bird gun from the hands of a soldier, and pulled the trigger with a roar at His Majesty the former emperor.

At his feet, a soldier jumped up and pushed him.

But after all, it was still a step too late.

I saw that accompanied by the hideous face of General Xu, the bird suddenly spewed flames at His Majesty the Emperor in the sky.

There was silence on the walls.

In the eyes of countless looking up, I saw that behind His Majesty the Emperor, who was already less than five feet away from the city tower, the huge umbrella-like thing suddenly flew upward, and the next moment......

The next moment, the emperor, who was originally falling slowly, fell from the sky like a stone, and smashed on the top of the city tower in a blink of an eye, and then with the flying rubble fragments, he smashed through the roof of the building and smashed into the city tower, and disappeared from people's field of vision in an instant.

There was an exclamation on the walls.

Some soldiers even ran desperately towards the tower.

Even Xu Dingguo himself rubbed his eyes in disbelief, it was obvious that it was quite incomprehensible to kill the dog emperor so easily, but then he reacted, and threw the bird gun to the personal soldiers beside him with excited tremors, and said with arrogance and disdain on his face: "I really thought it was invulnerable, it turned out to be nothing more than that, what kind of demon and fairy went down and knocked them all down, and said that even the cannon can't be killed, I'll just say, if he really can't even bomb the cannon, Then let's just wash our necks and wait for him, why do you have to resist with all that effort? ”

"The old man is a god, and the country is determined by one gun!"

The soldier said flatteringly.

"Haha, you kid can talk!"

Xu Dingguo said proudly.

Then he turned to look at the soldier who had just tried to stop him, who was now stupid, and sat on the ground looking at the tower.

"Take this dog thing down!"

Xu Dingguo shouted majestically.

The two soldiers behind him hurriedly stepped forward to hold down the soldier.

There was an immediate commotion on the city wall, and the nearest few soldiers even drew their swords to each other, and some soldiers in the distance were also surrounding, and at this time, a series of screams came from inside the city tower, and it was obvious that those soldiers had already found His Majesty the Emperor inside, but not to mention that he was not shot, just from such a high smash into the city tower, it is estimated that half a life will have to be removed!

"Do you want to rebel!"

Xu Dingguo roared inwardly.

Behind him, hundreds of soldiers drew their swords and stepped forward to protect him in the middle.

The soldiers hesitated and began to retreat.

Xu Dingguo immediately regained his composure.

"A group of fools, that's a demon, that's not Chongzhen for a long time, that's a demon who possessed Chongzhen, the death of the Ming Dynasty was caused by this demonic disaster in the world, look at him who doesn't respect the saints, and takes Yan Shenggong as a slave, throws a virtuous minister like Lord Hou into the Yellow River like Zhu Wen, and goes to the holy land of Buddhism to kill wantonly, isn't it a demon who can do these things? You dogs, don't think that he is a good person when he gives you dozens of acres of land, God is watching, is the land allocated to you yours and yours? There is a way that evil cannot prevail over good, see if this demon has not been beaten down by Ben Shuai. ”

He was angrily scolding those soldiers, but suddenly found that there was silence around him, and even his own soldiers looked behind him with terrified expressions.

At the same time, a palm appeared on his shoulder.

Xu Zongbing's face changed drastically in an instant.

"You say I'm a demon?"

Yang Feng, who was still covered in dust, patted him on the shoulder, poked his head out from beside him and said gloomily.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......"

Xu Dingguo turned back with a crying smile, and said with his lips trembling.

"Something with a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs!"

Before Mr. Xu finished speaking, Yang Feng immediately scolded.

Immediately after that, his right fist slammed out without hesitation, smashing into Xu Dingguo's face like a hammer, how could his human body withstand the strength, poor Xu Zongbing screamed, spraying a mouthful of blood and teeth, and was beaten out like a dead dog, and then slammed into the arrow battlements of the city wall. Immediately after the emperor took a few steps over, he punched his head again, in fact, the first punch had already deflated Xu Dingguo's head, and the second punch exploded, and the headless Xu Zongbing lay on the city wall, convulsed a few times and immediately stopped moving.

"Dog, when Henan was defeated, I spared your dog's life!"

Yang Feng spat at his dead body and scolded.

"I am your emperor, kneel, kneel!"

Then he yelled at the soldiers around him.

The surrounding defenders all knelt on the ground, even Xu Dingguo's personal soldiers and the prison army sent by Li Zicheng all kowtowed to the ground honestly, shouting long live to their emperor mountain, and then the wave of kneeling spread rapidly to both sides, and all the defenders in the entire Qingkou City knelt down and kowtowed to the ground in the same way, and some smart people ran down directly to open the city gate, and the Ming army that had been waiting in array in the distance immediately rushed wildly, and soon the cavalry of the vanguard rushed into Qingkou City, and the gate of Huai'an was opened.

But it will still be difficult to continue south.

The water in the Huanghuai confluence section that crosses the front is turbulent, and the ships must go south to avoid the shallows of countless sediment accumulations, and then cross this dangerous river surface diagonally, and even need a large number of slender men to drag them to cross the lock at the Tianfeikou on the opposite bank and enter the Li Canal, so Yang Feng also needs to seize the Tianfeikou on the south bank, so that the army can continue to attack Huai'an on the bank of the Li Canal.

Clearing is just the first node.

It's a complex canal hub that wants to go over......

Well, it's actually quite easy to think about the past. ”

"Your Majesty, a large number of small boats on the Huai River are heading this way!"

Zhu Yiwu, who had just entered the city, shouted.

Yang Feng, who was standing on the city wall looking at the opposite bank, immediately turned around and ran towards the west of Qingkou City, and soon there was an extremely spectacular scene in his field of vision, on the Huai River where Hongze Lake and the Yellow River meet in the west, countless fishing boats of all sizes were going down the river, as if covering the surface of the river, and constantly moving towards the bank of the river under Qingkou City. Soon the first boat docked on the mudflats on the shore, and then a man wearing the uniform of the Dangkou Army jumped off the boat and quickly ran to the city, looked at His Majesty the Emperor on the city wall and said, "Li Jun, deputy of the first battalion of the fourth brigade of the infantry of the Chendangkou Army, knocks to see Your Majesty." ”

"Who's behind you?"

Yang Feng asked.

After the 4th Infantry Brigade seized Sizhou, it continued to attack the counties on the west bank of Hongze Lake to the south, and the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of Suzhou went south as one way, plus the heavy cavalry and the 7th Infantry Brigade along the Vortex River as the other way, and attacked Fengyang on both sides.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is the fishermen on Hongze Lake, in order to thank Your Majesty for canceling the fishing tax and giving the fishermen land, they spontaneously came to carry the imperial army across the Yellow River, at first it was just some fishermen in Sizhou, but on the way to the more and more they gathered, and now the minister does not know how many fishing boats there are, it is estimated that there are more than 1,000 boats, and there is no problem with carrying two brigades of infantry to cross the Yellow River at one time, and they are all small boats, there is no need for any wharf, and any mudflat can be docked."

Chen Jun said proudly.
