Suzhou, also known as Gusu or Pingjiang, is a famous historical and cultural city in China. Suzhou means an important birthplace of Wu culture, and it also has the reputation of "paradise on earth".

As an important city in the south of the Yangtze River, the level of luxury in Suzhou is naturally not comparable to that of other cities.

Not to mention anything else, just the flow of people coming and going is not on the same level as Songjiang Mansion. In comparison, Songjiang Mansion, the so-called one-mansion, can't help but pale a little.

The speed of the Kirov airship is not very fast, basically about 40 kilometers per hour. However, because it flies in the sky, it eliminates obstacles on the ground and winding roads, so its speed is faster than transportation.

Not bad at all for the car.

Moreover, the Kirov airship has another advantage, that is, the cost of fuel is lower, and the carrying capacity is much stronger than that of a car. At the same time, it is also convenient to transport. Even in woodland, just lower the rope and mobilize the soldiers to land safely.

.

If placed in modern warfare, this method would naturally be extremely backward. However, in this era of severe insufficient air defense capabilities, the Kirov airship's transportation capabilities are almost perfect.

Zhang Fan sat on the airship, feeling the cold wind blowing on his cheeks, with a look of fear in his eyes.

Ever since he got on the airship, Zhang Fan's old problem - fear of heights - has come back.

In his previous life, Zhang Fan was very resistant to high-level activities, such as bungee jumping, glass bridges, etc. He was unwilling to touch even the slightly higher slides in some water parks.

Now that he suddenly got on the airship and got further and further away from the ground, Zhang Fan could clearly feel his heartbeat speeding up. Now he didn't dare to look down at all, for fear of fainting after just one glance.

"Commander, Suzhou Prefecture has been spotted ahead, do you want to land?"

Just when Zhang Fan was suffering, Davari's voice suddenly came.

At this moment, Zhang Fan suddenly discovered that electronic music can be so pleasant.

"Land, land quickly!"

Zhang Fan stood up tremblingly, but before he could take two steps, he collapsed on the ground again.

Today's Kirov airship is only about three hundred meters away from the ground, but even so Zhang Fan still feels dizzy. If we really want to follow the height limit of the Kirov airship, going up to a thousand meters is actually not a problem.

.

"I will never fly on an airship again, I swear!"

Zhang Fan really misses the days of transport trucks at this time. He really can't sit on a tank. Although it is a bit bumpy, it is better than being frightened.

Under Zhang Fan's command, the Kirov airship finally descended slowly about ten miles away from Suzhou Mansion. After landing, Zhang Fan immediately took out his telescope and took a look at the situation in Suzhou Mansion.

Sure enough, at this moment, the city gates of Suzhou Mansion were closed, and the city walls were filled with soldiers wearing armor.

"Is that the artifact owned by the thief?"

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform and a flower feather on the city wall looked seriously at the Kirov airship that was slowly descending not far away.

"My lord, I think it must be this. Many people have seen it before."

The soldiers guarding the city also sounded surprised and shocked.

Many people who had learned about the fall of Songjiang Prefecture fled to Suzhou Prefecture, and some of them came here by bypassing Songjiang Prefecture, and this news was naturally learned from their mouths.

But they didn't take it to heart at first. After all, people these days like to exaggerate, and they would like to describe some rare things as if they were immortal treasures.

But now, when they see this thing with their own eyes, they understand how superficial they were before.

The scariest thing about the legend is not the content of the story, but that the legend is true!

"Sir, we..."

At this time, many soldiers on the city wall began to show fear, and some were even trembling with fear.

"Cheer up, my officers. You are soldiers of the Qing Dynasty. How can you be afraid of powerful enemies?"

At this time, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted loudly.

But obviously, this trick of his is of no use. When faced with unknown existences, people will always crazily imagine how terrifying they are.

The middle-aged man looked at the trembling soldiers in front of him, and his eyes immediately showed a look of hatred for iron.

The man's name was Tong Hua, the current magistrate of Suzhou. He had been surprised when he heard the news of the fall of Songjiang Prefecture.

It's not that he has never seen rebels, but in the past, those rebels could only occupy a few county towns at most. There was no possibility of getting involved in a confidential place like the state capital.

But now, this group of rebels who suddenly appeared not only took over Songjiang Mansion, but now they were bold enough to target his Suzhou Mansion.

Fortunately, Yin Jishan, the governor of Liangjiang, had warned him before, so he was able to close the city gate as soon as he found something was wrong and arrange for defense troops to guard it.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

But if that's all, Tong Hua doesn't have to worry so much. What he cares about most now is what Yin Jishan said about countering the rebel army.

As early as five days ago, Jiangnan Admiral Wei Jingguo mobilized 20,000 elite troops from Changzhou Zhenzhou and marched towards Songjiang Prefecture. According to normal circumstances, Wei Jingguo's experience in leading troops and the number of 20,000 soldiers were able to capture a group of rebels.

Thieves shouldn't be a problem.

But the strange thing is that after Wei Jingguo led the army to Songjiang Mansion, there was no news at all.

Until two days ago, the Governor of Liangjiang, Yin Jishan, sent a group of people to find out the news. As a result, the tent that was stationed at that time was found in a woodland more than ten miles outside Songjiang Mansion.

But the most frightening thing was that there were no people in the tent at that time, armors and weapons were scattered all over the floor, and a lot of clothes could be seen. The whole camp was in a mess, but no one could be found. Not only were there alive

Not even the dead can be seen!

After learning the news, the entire Jiangnan Province exploded in an instant.

Many people began to speculate whether Wei Jingguo might have surrendered to the enemy, but after some research, they rejected this idea.

First of all, the spies in Songjiang Mansion did not find that there were large-scale soldiers stationed in the city. Secondly, Wei Jingguo had no reason to betray.

You must know that his whole family is still in the hands of the imperial court. If he surrenders to the enemy, his entire family will be implicated.

Wei Jingguo has been in the army for decades and is considered a veteran who came from the Kangxi era. Although his political sense is not very sensitive, he can still assess the situation at the most basic level. Faced with such a small number of rebels, there should be no reason to rebel.

And if the other party really surrenders, how should those armors, weapons and clothes be explained?

Is it possible that even if you surrender, you have to replace your weapons with new ones?
