Yang Huaian was training his troops and horses in the camp. He shouted loudly, and the soldiers held their shields high, waved their iron swords, and studied the sword techniques and formations.
"The enemies we will face this time are different from those in the past. They are very strong, ferocious and savage. It is thanks to them that our Xuhen Department is where we are today."
"Marquis Yue said that as long as we can block the Central Plains soldiers and horses from reaching the Dadu River, we can enjoy the same treatment as the Thirty-seventh Army!"
The patriarch of the Void Hatred Department roared with a ferocious look on his face.
As the words fell, bursts of cheers and cheers came from all around.
In the past, Gao Fang borrowed thirty-seven barbarian troops to overthrow Yang Qianzhen of the Ning Kingdom of Dayi and establish the Dali Kingdom.
As a result, the thirty-seven barbarian soldiers received special treatment, and the tribe was exempted from corvee taxes for generations.
This kind of welfare temptation is an irresistible temptation for any tribe in Dali.
"Exemption from corvee and taxation is a benefit that we only hate because of the hateful Central Plains court, which caused us to lose our status. This time the traitor goes south, it is the day to avenge his shame."
Yang Huaian's eyes were full of fighting spirit. When he was young, he saw his grandfather, who treated him very well, wailing and dying on the bed after being fatally wounded by an arrow.
From then on, he was determined to avenge his grandfather.
He practiced martial arts diligently and led his tribe to follow Duan Siping. Gao Fang conquered the north and south and made great contributions.
In the early years, Gao Fang intended to move the barbarians north to Jianchang Prefecture, so Yang Huaian volunteered to move the tribes north in order to avenge his grandfather.
However, having been stationed on the south bank of the Dadu River for many years, he had already discovered that his enemies, the Gao Pian clan, had long been killed by Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan.
There is no motivation for revenge, but because of the hatred between the two races, Yang Huaian has always been prejudiced against the Northerners.
This time, Yang Huaian couldn't help but feel excited when he learned that the Northerners might attack Dali.
The Xuhen tribe was originally a powerful force in the south and also among the barbarians. It was because of Li Tang that they did not enjoy this wave of benefits.
The Luo Yu court had always respected Li Tang as the orthodox one, so this hatred was naturally transferred.
"Report, Clan Commander, the navy from the Central Plains has arrived on the other side of the river in Hanyuan City!"
Yang Huaian suddenly got the enemy's trace.
He quickly mounted his horse and galloped towards the Dadu River defense line.
The Dadu River originates from Yushu, Qinghai, at the southern foot of Goluo Mountain in the Animaqing Mountains. It originates from the Zumuzu River. It passes through Aba County and meets the Suomo River and Chuosjia River in Markang County, and flows southward through Jinchuan County.
Danba County, then Luding County, Shimian County, turns eastward, passes Hanyuan County, Ebian County, and flows into the Minjiang River in the south of Leshan City.
The entire route is located among mountains, with rapid rivers and numerous whirlpools.
Only the Hanyuan River is located on both banks of the middle reaches of the Dadu River. It is a valley between the Sichuan-Sichuan Basin and the plateau. It is located on the eastern edge of the northern section of the Hengduan Mountains. The river is blocked by mountains and is relatively gentle.
It is neither blocked by mountains nor harmed by rapids. It is the best landing place for hundreds of miles in front and back.
If the Central Plains court wanted to go south, it had to cross the river from Hanyuan.
For this reason, in order to prevent the Northern Army from moving south, Gao Fang built a group of stone forts on the south bank of the Dadu River near Hanyuan.
Three forts were built on the two highlands of Shazhou and the south bank of the river, connected to each other by pontoon bridges. Each fort group had a stone wall outside and several large and small blockhouses inside.
The three villages echo and support each other.
No matter where the enemy attacks, they will be attacked from three sides.
Yang Huaian ran all the way, entered the Southwest Stone Fort, crossed the pontoon, and quickly came to the Sand Castle to look at it.
But I saw that the north bank of the Dadu River was densely covered with warships, and hundreds of boats were sailing upstream to the dock on the north bank.
“How spectacular!”
Yang Huaian took a breath.
They didn't have a naval force in Dali, so it was their first time to see this scene, and they were inevitably shocked.
Vice Admiral Hao Chen said in confusion: "How did they move so many warships upstream?"
If you want to sail a ship here, the biggest difficulty is to pass through the Leshan Waterway.
Leshan Waterway is located on the east bank of the Minjiang River in Leshan, on the side of Lingyun Temple. It is close to the confluence of the Dadu River, Qingyi River and Minjiang River, and gathers at the foothills of Lingyun Mountain. The water is quite fierce.
The Leshan Giant Buddha was also built for this reason.
Warships are no better than cargo ships and have deeper drafts, making it extremely difficult to defend against reef rapids.
It is shocking that the Central Plains Navy could overcome such difficulties and sail its warships upstream to this point.
There was also a trace of horror in Yang Huaian's eyes, and he said calmly: "No matter how he got here, we are not going to fight with him on the water. What is the use of them transporting so many boats here?"
He continued to look north, and then said after a while: "According to this situation, the Central Plains will only attack after a short rest. It will only take three days at most. Let our people take all precautions. With our three villages across the river, no matter how many thousand the opponent has,
Even the thousands of troops can do nothing to stop us."
He just finished speaking.
Then I heard the sound of war drums coming from the opposite side.
Countless flags, big and small, were raised on the water, and they were thrown down the river. They raised their swords and guns, and the shouts of killing were shocking!
On the other side of the Dadu River, more than thirty large and small warships have launched an offensive against the Shibao Village in Shazhou, Hejian, where he is located.
Yang Huaian immediately laughed angrily and said: "It's unreasonable. The Central Plains underestimate us too much. Do you really think they are the only ones in this world who can be called heroes? We are all incompetent people in Dali. Can we take it at will?"
With anger flashing in his eyes, he shouted: "Meet the enemy!"
The soldiers of the three villages immediately started to move.
Yang Huaian had been in battle for a long time. Faced with the current situation, although his heart was full of anger, he remained calm and shouted: "H stone hands are in place, listen to my orders..."
Seeing the enemy ship entering the shooting range, Yang Huaian shouted in shock: "Let go!"
More than forty stones rose into the air and hit the Zhongyuan battleship with strong winds, but none of them hit.
The boulder entered the water and splashed water more than ten feet high between the boats.
Vaguely, Yang Huaian seemed to hear the laughter from the other side.
Yang Huaian held his breath and was not in a hurry, and said loudly: "The h stone hand shot just now, correct the distance... and then release..."
After the correction, the accuracy improved. The noise and ridicule on the battleship suddenly turned into exclamations and screams. Finally, two H-stones hit the target.
However, the opponent's warship seemed to be very strong and did not have much impact on the ship.
Yang Huaian couldn't help but frown, feeling a little strange in his heart.
Why hasn't the other party fought back?
People from the Central Plains have always had the advantage in the benefits of h stone.uu Kanshu www.uukanshu.com
The opponent has entered the shooting range and is actually indifferent?
It's surprising.
Yang Huaian ignored it and continued to order the stone crossbow to fire.
After three rounds in a row, Zhongyuan was still passively beaten. A ship began to sink gradually under their h-stone, and it was obvious that they had blasted a big hole in the bottom of the ship.
However, the opponent did not sink completely to the bottom of the water. It was probably the soldiers in the cabin who blocked the breach.
Yang Huaian raised his eyebrows and laughed loudly: "Everyone on the other side, don't blame me for having no eyes in marble h. If you want to blame me, blame you, the Emperor of the Central Plains, for being incompetent and asking you to come and die!"
The surrounding soldiers also laughed: "The Emperor of the Central Plains is incompetent and wants you to come and die!"
The sound floats over the Dadu River...
