Zhang Cangzong kept walking back and forth on his flagship, and Zhang Jiwei even felt dizzy. However, this was his father after all, and his father was in a very bad mood, so he did not dare to speak casually.
"Has the owner's injury been under control?" Zhang Cangzong couldn't remember how many times he had asked.
The military doctor said in a very embarrassed tone: "Sir, the master of the house has injured his internal organs. If he hadn't been extremely powerful, he would have died long ago. Besides, there is no corresponding medicine on the ship, I'm afraid."
Zhang Cangzong took a long breath and waved his hand to the military doctor. Although he was furious, he still had no habit of showing off his anger to others. He knew Zhang Cangxiong's injuries better than anyone. Besides, he also fled to the ship temporarily and had no good doctor.
There is no good medicine, and it is really difficult to control the injury.
Another shout came from the riverside. Zhang Cangzong looked sideways and said in a sinister tone: "It's a good idea. We are all blood relatives, so why do we need to kill them all?"
After a pause, Zhang Cangzong shouted: "Prepare the trebuchets on the ship. Don't let the opponent's fire ships get close to our warships. All fleets, move closer to the east coast."
The base camp of the Huai River Navy is along the river. However, because the Holy Sect of Paradise suddenly sent troops to Yuzhou Road, Zhang Cangzong was worried that the enemy would take the opportunity to attack Huai River, so he specially pulled all the naval forces to the border of Raozhou. It seems that this was unintentional.
Willow.
The navy had just approached the east bank when a sound of golden drums suddenly came from the opposite side of the river, and a banner suddenly floated from the ground. Zhang Cangzong Dingqing took a look and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. On the banner were written dragons and phoenixes.
One big word: Ping! It’s actually the Pinglang Legion of the Holy Sect of Paradise.
Zhang Jiwei asked doubtfully: "They actually colluded with the Holy Sect of Paradise?"
As soon as the Hirang Legion appeared, they immediately moved out a lot of debris and threw it into the Huai River, actually trying to block the river.
"General, there are traces of a large number of warships on the river in the south, but it is not clear where they belong." On the mast, the flagman shouted loudly.
Zhang Cangzong frowned and said in a deep voice: "Attention, the whole army, march north immediately."
Zhang Jiwei quickly handed down the order, but he was thinking about Zhang Cangzong's meaning. Although the Huaishui River was wide, a large number of warships were blocked to the south of him, so it was impossible to forcefully rush through. And even if he could rush out, so what?
It has become like this, Huai River has fallen into the hands of Zhang Keliang and others, and there is no way to make a comeback. Therefore, the best choice is to go north to the Hetao immediately. After all, Zhang Yuewan is still there.
"General, the master of the house is awake and wants you and the Major General to go in." The military doctor hurriedly came out and said.
Hearing this, Zhang Cangzong and his son quickly walked into the cabin. Then they saw Zhang Cangxiong lying on the bed with a pale face and slightly open eyes.
"Master, my brother is incompetent and failed to protect your safety!" Zhang Cangzong knelt down and bowed, and Zhang Jiwei also knelt down quickly.
Zhang Cangxiong smiled weakly, waved to the two of them, motioned them to move closer, and said with difficulty: "I don't blame you, that man is the ghost Kaijun of the Netherworld. Even if I am on guard, I'm afraid I'm no match for him.
Besides, since the second brother and uncle have intentions, it is already very valuable that you can escape from their hands."
Seemingly out of breath, Zhang Cangxiong rested for a while and then said: "Lao Liu, eldest brother, I don't blame them. Their starting point is also for the family. However, times have changed. The Zhang family, not to mention fighting for hegemony, is a stronghold."
I don’t have the strength to be king. Sooner or later, this world will belong to Hetao. Since the second brother dares to kill me, he must have colluded with the Holy Sect of Paradise. Remember, you must not follow the same old path with them. They
If it doesn’t work, Hetao will destroy the Holy Sect of Paradise sooner or later, so we can’t drag our Zhang family into the water.”
Zhang Cangzong nodded in agreement. He naturally knew what kind of people Hetao was. To put it more harshly, they were a group of lunatics who killed people like dogs. If the Zhang family really came together with the Holy Sect of Paradise, it was hard to say whether Hetao would miss him.
Because of the previous friendship, the Zhang family was spared.
"Lao Liu, my eldest brother is dead. You immediately lead the navy to the Hetao and tell Yue Wan not to avenge me. Otherwise, even if our Zhang family can escape this disaster, our vitality will definitely be severely damaged. If Lao Er and the others really do
After you come together with the Holy Sect of Paradise, you will stay in Hetao and swear allegiance to Haotian so that you can preserve a piece of blood for our Zhang family."
Zhang Cangzong said quickly: "Brother, I, Zhang Cangzong, was born as a member of the Zhang family and died as a ghost of the Zhang family. How can I be loyal to Haotian?"
"Bastard! The Zhang family now belongs to Lao Er and the others. If you don't loyal to Haotian, how can you gain a foothold in Hetao, and how can you retain a trace of blood for our Zhang family in the future!" Zhang Cangxiong shouted angrily, but this move was too big.
The wound was touched, and he immediately let out a muffled groan.
"Brother, your health is in danger!" Zhang Cangzong quickly stepped forward to support him and said.
Zhang Cangxiong waved his hand and continued: "Lao Liu, remember, after arriving in the Hetao, you must be of the same mind as the Hetao. No matter what order Haotian gives, you must unswervingly execute it, no matter what the order is!"
Zhang Cangzong was startled and suddenly understood the meaning of this command.
Zhang Cangxiong did not explain, and took a breath and said: "Don't fight, don't be arrogant, don't be arrogant, and don't party. As long as you remember these four points, with your talent, you will definitely be able to occupy a place in the Hetao. As for the future of our Zhang family
Wherever you go, as long as Yue Wan is there, it will definitely not be too bad."
Suddenly remembering something, Zhang Cangxiong grabbed Zhang Cangzong's arm and said solemnly: "Lao Liu, I can't do it anymore. The cooperative relationship between Huaishui and Hetao will inevitably have cracks. You must remember one thing.
Regarding this matter, if after Hetao dominates the world, Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng propose to retain the status of the Zhang family in Huaishui. You must refuse, and you will never accept it. These two people are cruel and loyal to Haotian, and they will never accept it.
You will tolerate forces that can compete with Haotian on your territory. If you accept their proposal, the Zhang family will definitely be wiped out in the future. Remember, if they retreat and let you serve as the prefect, the same will happen.
Don’t accept it. You can surrender your military power in exchange for retreat, and propose disarming and returning home. Otherwise, I, the Zhang family, may not be spared. Remember, remember!”
Zhang Cangzong felt that his wrists were about to burst, and even the veins on his palms were bursting. While he was in pain, he heard Zhang Cangxiong's voice had dropped, his eyes were unfocused, and he was mumbling to himself.
"Brother, what did you say?" Zhang Cangzong leaned down and asked.
"Yue Wan, Yue Wan..." Zhang Cangxiong's voice became lower and lower. Zhang Cangzong looked down and found that Zhang Cangxiong had no voice. When he looked up, Zhang Cangxiong's eyes were wide open, but there was no breath in his mouth and nose.
.
"Brother!" Zhang Cangxiong felt sad and howled loudly.
Zhang Jiwei was also full of tears. Unexpectedly, even at the last moment, Zhang Cangxiong did not resent Zhang Cangwu and others. In his heart, the most important thing was the foundation of Huaishui and the blood inheritance of the Zhang family. It was precisely because of seeing the Zhang family
There was nothing he could do anymore. If he persisted, his family would be destroyed and everyone would be destroyed. Therefore, he still decided to give up the foundation to ensure the continuation of the family.
If he follows his path, even if the Zhang family cannot guarantee the monopoly on the Huai River in the future, they will at least be able to become a feudal minister in the Hetao. However, Zhang Cangwu and others do not understand his ideas at all, or they are wrong.
They had estimated Huaishui's strength and therefore made such a move. What they didn't know was that this would push the Zhang family into a desperate situation.
"General, the warship coming from the south is the Jiaolong Legion in Hetao. Their commander, He Bugui, wants to talk to you, General." A soldier shouted from outside.
Zhang Cangzong wiped the tears on his face and hurried out of the cabin. Seeing that the warship coming from behind was indeed the Hetao warship, Zhang Cangzong finally breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the Hetao is the best friend of the Zhang family, especially the Hetao water.
Division, almost all the warships were built by the Zhang family and then given to the Jiaolong Legion.
He Bugui saw that the person who came out was indeed Zhang Cangzong, and felt relieved. He hurriedly jumped onto Zhang Cangzong's battleship, and the two exchanged opinions in a hurry.
"Go back to the Hetao immediately without any hesitation!" the two said almost at the same time.
He Bugui walked into the cabin, kowtowed three times to Zhang Cangxiong's body, and then exited and said to Zhang Cangzong: "General, there has been a sudden change in the Huai River, and it has colluded with the Holy Sect of Paradise, and the Holy Capital of Tiandu is doing this.
At the same time, a coup also took place. It is obvious that these things were premeditated. If they were just targeting the Huai River, it would be impossible for so many forces to join forces. Therefore, their ultimate goal must be our Hetao. The only way is to return to the Hetao first.
Only then do we have a chance to make a comeback.”
Zhang Cangzong also said in a deep voice: "What General He said is absolutely true. An Ninghou Aibin, the commander of the imperial navy, has been killed by Jiu. The royal family will definitely not waste these 20,000 naval troops easily. If we don't go north quickly, it's hard to say that we won't be blocked by the imperial court.
Die on the Huai River."
In fact, both of them understood one thing. The imperial navy was a trivial matter. The most important thing was that the Eastern Japanese Dynasty and the Holy Sect of Paradise had always been on good terms. Now the Holy Sect of Paradise has colluded with Huaishui Zhang Cangwu and others.
Naturally, this good brother Dongbo will not be left behind. If I remember correctly, Kato Taka's 100,000 navy seems to be near the mouth of the river. The reason why He Bugui dared to go south boldly was because Abin also led the navy.
The division is blocked on the river, and the advancing Eastern Army is also guarding the Yuzhou Road. However, now that there has been a coup in the imperial court, the retreat is already unstable. In addition, there is also civil strife in the Zhang family in Huai River. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid it will really happen in the future.
No chance.
Without further ado, neither of them were procrastinators. Zhang Cangzong quickly gathered Zhang Cangxiong's body, and the two naval forces merged into one. Nearly 100,000 soldiers and more than 300 warships quickly raised their sails and adjusted their angles to swim upstream.
They must seize the time, at least, they must rush to the river before the Eastern Japanese Navy blocks the intersection of Luoshui and the river.
It is estimated that Zhang Keliang and the Holy Sect of Paradise did not expect Zhang Cangzong to make up his mind so quickly. Although they were sailing against the current, there was no navy to stop the opponent, so Zhang Cangzong and the two rushed to the Shengjing River in Tiandu smoothly. But just
At this moment, many battleships appeared in front. Judging from the appearance of the battleships, they turned out to be Qinchuan Navy.
He Bugui and Zhang Cangzong took a breath of cold air. Wasn't the Qinchuan Navy completely wiped out in the battle with Pu Zhicheng? How could it suddenly appear here? And looking at the number of warships, they must have at least 30,000 troops.
The whole family came out in full force.
He Bugui's face darkened and he looked at Zhang Cangzong blankly.
Zhang Cangzong smiled bitterly: "General congratulations, the Qinchuan navy quietly arrived at Luoshui from the Hezhou section of the Dajiang River. If it didn't go around the East China Sea, it must have passed through our Huaihe River. Over the years, the head of the family has told Cang
Wudu has great trust, so our intelligence system, Gale, is also controlled by Cangwu and Jishi. If they are intentional, it is impossible for me, the general, to know about it."
He Bugui also knew that Zhang Cangzong would never lie about this kind of thing, but he was still a little angry in his heart. Seventy or eighty warships of the Qinchuan Navy entered the Huai River from the river and arrived at Luoshui, basically on the territory of the Zhang family
Walking, Zhang Cangzong, as the commander of the navy, did not receive even a hint of news, and even thought that the other party had been completely wiped out like himself. It was really unimaginable.
But after thinking about it, He Bugui was relieved. Zhang Cangzong had always kept a low profile because his father once competed with Zhang Cangxiong's father for the position of King Weiyuan. Except for the matter of one-third of an acre of land in his navy, he never paid much attention to it.
Intervening in other affairs. With the help of Zhang Cangwu and his son, who control the Huai River, it is not surprising that Qinchuan Navy appears here.
On the other battleship, Shu Lan's face was ashen. Although he didn't know the specific situation yet, such major things happened to the Bliss Holy Sect, Qinchuan Li Family, Tiandu Shengjing, and Huaishui Zhang Family one after another. If
If the predictions are correct, they may also include Jinhua Mitsukoshi and the Yizhou Song family. The only person who can unite them so much is Hetao.
Zhu Tun's face was so gloomy that he could shed water. Soul Eater had revealed a spy. If not, the changes in these families would have been difficult to escape Soul Eater's surveillance. Just now he had tried to send a few carrier pigeons to send a message to the Hetao area.
, but as soon as the carrier pigeon took off, several falcon calls were heard in the sky, and Zhu Tun's heart suddenly became cold. Eagle falcon, is there a mole in the Bloody Plateau or is the Luoche Dynasty also involved?
"Rush over!" He Bugui said to Zhang Cangzong: "The Qinchuan navy must have evil intentions when it appears here. If we can't rush through quickly, there is a high chance that we will be blocked on the Luoshui River.
"
Zhang Cangzong also nodded. Under the current situation, no one but himself could believe it. Even though the Li family was friends but not enemies, they appeared here inexplicably and put on a posture ready to intercept him.
It was obvious that they had a plan. They no longer hesitated and used the Huaishui Navy as the vanguard to forcefully attack the opponent's defense line.
"Hey, Li Fengcheng, it is indeed him!" Zhang Jiwei had good eyesight and saw the tall figure standing on the opponent's flagship from a distance, and couldn't help but sneered.
Although they have an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, Zhang Cangzong and He Bugui are not sure. The Luoshui River is not wide, and 30,000 naval troops can completely block the river. If Li Fengcheng is ruthless, he will sink ten warships and block the river.
On the river, the Hetao-Huaihe Navy coalition forces were helpless.
Zhang Cangzong shouted in a deep voice: "Order all warships to adjust the angle of their sails and charge forward at all costs. Even if the sky falls, there will be no pause!"
He Bugui also had a serious face. If he could not overcome Li Fengcheng, then when the armies from Huai River and Tiandu Shengjing came and surrounded his two wings, the entire army of one hundred thousand navy would be annihilated.
