Looking at the person lying on the ground, Zhao Weiheng's face was full of disgust. He still had many things to say, and he seemed really disappointed at the moment.
Being persecuted by Zhao Weilong, Zhao Weiheng had too much resentment in his heart. He just cursed him in one breath, which made him feel so happy.
As long as Zhao Weilong can be defeated, it is no big deal to recognize a thief as his uncle, not to mention that in Zhao Weiheng's opinion, Zhao Yanxun is not a thief.
Yong's army was so powerful that the imperial court could not stop it, which meant that his ninth uncle was destined to be the emperor.
So now, hugging Zhao Yanxun's thigh is the guarantee for his good life in the future.
In fact, the thigh-hugging thing was also involved, and his other two uncles also shamelessly asked for this job today.
The reason why it fell on Zhao Weiheng was because he had a more special status.
All the brothers betrayed the emperor and were willing to follow King Yong to fight against the thief, which further proves that Zhao Weilong is a thief who killed his father and regicide.
After understanding his core competitiveness, Zhao Weiheng will naturally seize the opportunity and follow Zhao Yanxun to carry the flag of rebellion.
"Someone, drag this guy out and chop him down!"
After Zhao Weiheng finished speaking, two guards came in from outside the hall.
One of them reported: "His Royal Highness, King Ling, according to the prince's instructions, this person will be sent back to the other side!"
He originally wanted to kill someone to vent his anger, but when he heard that Zhao Yanxun had already made an arrangement, Zhao Weiheng immediately said: "Then don't delay and send the person back quickly. Uncle Ninth must have deep meaning in making such an arrangement!"
"yes!"
In fact, it was Zhao Weiheng who really thought too much, and Zhao Yanxun had no deep meaning at all.
He has unprecedentedly powerful force. Once the boats are built, he can cross the Han River in one go without any need for intrigues.
Qiu Youxian, who fainted, was sent out of the city by the guards, and was finally handed over to Yang Yingyuan and others.
Seeing Qiu Youxian like this, Zhang Yuanying and others thought that he had been tortured. Although they were angry, they did not dare to speak out.
Finally, under the supervision of the guards, they rowed the boat and left the west bank.
After leaving the shore, Zhang Yuanying immediately checked Qiu Youxian's condition.
Then he was very surprised and said: "No injury!"
Zhao He was full of confusion: "What... is going on?"
Zhang Yuanying said helplessly: "We can only wait until he wakes up before asking the Spirit King, but looking at him like this... who knows when he will wake up!"
Zhao He said: "Being able to come back alive is considered a blessing among misfortunes!"
After saying this, the two of them looked at each other speechlessly, feeling extremely heavy in their hearts.
Now that the imperial court was in trouble both internally and externally, they were influenced by Qiu Youxian and began to worry about the country and the people.
Soon, their ship docked and was discovered by patrolling soldiers shortly after.
After confirming his identity, at Zhang Yuanying's request, the general banner led by the team sent several strong soldiers to carry Qiu Youxian to Donghe Mansion.
…………
Time flies by so fast, and a few days pass in the blink of an eye, and the days have entered June.
In the past few days, as the Yong army's ships were almost built, several confrontations broke out between the two sides.
The imperial court gathered together here and there, and recruited a group of civilians to serve as troops, and gathered nearly 130,000 troops, stationed along the east bank of the Han River for nearly 20 miles.
It seems that there are many people, but there are too few soldiers who can fight, and they are passive in defense.
The Yong Army launched several attacks, and each time the defense line on the opposite side was beaten to pieces. Fortunately, the surrounding troops provided timely assistance, and they were able to barely push back the Yong Army across the river.
These small-scale battles were Zhao Yanxun's further tests of the official army before the real war began.
The fifteen-guard army in his hand was stronger than the Forbidden Army, but it couldn't be said to be much stronger.
Therefore, the five imperial guards of the Western Front Army, especially the two cavalry guards, pose a considerable threat to the Yong Army.
Although Zhao Yanxun also had cavalry, Dahe was of no use in front.
Although he was very confident about winning this battle, Zhao Yanxun did not want to lose miserably, which would undoubtedly be a failure for him.
Therefore, before the official war begins, he must do the final research.
…………
The fifth day of June, before dawn.
On the west bank of the river, at least seven or eight places were lit up almost at the same moment.
This is a set of signals, and the person receiving the signals is on the east coast.
Under the cover of night, Liu Enfu squatted in the woods and said to several subordinates around him: "The war is about to begin. Tell the brothers to start immediately!"
"yes!"
As several of his subordinates dispersed, Liu Enfu became more and more excited.
Once the war begins, defeating the imperial army will not be a problem, and he will not be far from returning home.
Of course, in the face of this battle, Liu Enfu only felt a little sentimental, and his whole person regained his composure and rationality.
The task for him and his men at this moment was to remove the light and dark sentry posts sent by the government troops.
The people who guarded Si Beijun did not rest for a day after diving through the Han River one after another. In order to explore all the clues, they spent a lot of time and suffered a lot.
The targeted removal they are responsible for tonight means that this war has officially begun.
They only have one hour to complete the task. If the outposts fail to report the situation after a long time, the officers and soldiers will also become alert.
Although the guards Si Beijun are all second-level soldiers, they also have great difficulties in completing this task.
The difficulty of this mission is not to kill the sentry soldiers, but to ensure that there are 138 points, and there can be no mistakes in each one, so that the master can do it without noticing.
Therefore, not only Liu Enfu was worried at this moment, but also the other thousands of households who received the order were also worried.
The killings are going on here in full force, and the Yong army on the west bank of the Han River has imposed martial law on the river bank.
No soldier is allowed to act without Zhao Yanxun's order.
This is to prevent spies from Xi'an from reporting the news.
At this moment, all the guards are busy preparing in their respective areas.
As for officers at the command level, in addition to inspecting the preparations of their men, they also had to repeatedly emphasize the battle plan after crossing the river.
There was only an hour before dawn, which didn't give them much time.
Each guard station is preparing, and the four full-thousand-household stations guarding the Sinan Army are also making final preparations before the war.
In this decisive battle, the four thousand households will serve as the vanguard and will be the first to go to the other side to build a defense line to wait for the main force to arrive.
Liu Enfu and others pulled out the official sentry posts in order to prevent Yong's army from being discovered by these sentries during the preparation stage.
The Han River is only a few hundred meters wide, and crossing the river only takes about 20 minutes. It all depends on the time difference here.
As long as the officers and soldiers on the other side have not discovered the situation when they start to cross the river, they will be considered to have achieved an initial victory.
But at this moment, everything is still planned.
Half an hour later, the west bank was ready and waiting for a signal from the east bank.
After another ten minutes, amid the silence on the west bank, lights finally came on on the east bank.
Seeing the signal, Zhao Yanxun, who was sitting on the front line, issued the order to launch an attack.
In this attack, only nine infantry guards were used, and the remaining infantry guards and cavalry were specifically responsible for preventing harassing zombies.
They all gathered on the shore, which would naturally attract a large number of zombies, so Zhao Yanxun had to divide his troops.
Of course, these nine guard posts are all equipped with elite soldiers. As long as they form a smooth formation after crossing the river, Zhao Yanxun sees no problem in defeating the army.
As his order was issued, the ships of each garrison moved to the other side, and hundreds of small boats suddenly appeared on the river, full of soldiers crossing the river.
Naturally, the first group of people to cross the river were the bodyguards Si Nanjun who served as the vanguard.
