The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 807: A bloody battle in Huainan, but no way to turn the tide!

On the Yangtze River, the sails of ships are like clouds, constantly heading towards the other side.

Looking at Bei Ming who was determined to fight to the death, Xie An on the shore couldn't help but say with surprise in his eyes: "Not good, Bei Ming has completely given up the naval battle and plans to rush over in one go. The governor is in danger!"

"Thank you, General Zhonglang. What should we do now?"

Looking at Xie An beside him, the deputy general showed a look of fear.

Because he knew too well the Northern Ming's land warfare capabilities. They conquered Liaodong in the north and the Thirty-Six Kingdoms in the west and had never been defeated!
"Organize an army as soon as possible to prevent Bei Ming from landing, otherwise we will be in trouble!"

Thinking of the large ship rushing towards the shore and beating the war drums, Xie An immediately became serious.

On the Yangtze River, Huan Wen was directing his messengers to wave flags and control his warships.
But in terms of the number of ships, the Ming Dynasty had no fewer than the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Zhang Cheng had been plundering Kyushu Island for the past two years in preparation for his move south.
After watching the vassal army tear through the defense line, Zhang Cheng looked at Huan Wen and laughed, "Huan Wen, you are defeated, hahahaha!"

"Zhang Thief, you are now on the boat alone, do you still think you can survive?"

Huan Wen could not help but draw his sword and shouted, "Kill him for me, the governor!"

Seeing the Eastern Jin soldiers holding spears approaching, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but wave his spear and said, "Don't you know that I am the most powerful general in the Ming Dynasty? You guys think you can kill me!"

At this point, Zhang Cheng rushed forward with a long spear in hand.
Looking at Zhang Cheng who was causing a bloody storm on the deck, Huan Wen realized at this moment that the other party dared to jump over alone, which proved that he was really a good fighter!
Looking at Zhang Cheng who kept rushing up, the deputy general shouted: "Commander-in-chief, quickly take the boat and leave. We will stay behind to cover your retreat!"

"Zhang Thief! I will kill you next time!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng angrily, Huan Wen could not help but roar, then turned and ran away.

Because if he stayed, he would probably be kept on the boat by Zhang Cheng.
"Huan Wen, don't go!"

Looking at Huan Wen's back, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but overthrow the Eastern Jin soldiers in front of him.
While the battle was in full swing on the river, the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty on the shore were also frantically trying to stop the enemy.

When Zhang Hao got off the boat at the shore, he saw a rain of arrows coming at him.
"Raise your shield, raise your shield!"

With a loud roar, the soldiers beside him immediately rushed forward.
After a burst of metallic collisions, Zhang Hao excitedly opened his shield and shouted, "Soldiers, follow me, we are the first to ascend!"

"Go first!"

Hearing Zhang Hao's words, the Chiliang soldiers behind him drew their swords and rushed forward.

Looking at the brave Chiliang Army, Xie An could not help but wave his hand and said, "Fight the enemy!"

"Defend the enemy!"

The horn sounded, and the fighting on both sides of the Yangtze River was in chaos.

For the Ming Dynasty, placing the battlefield on the Yangtze River was definitely not a wise choice, because it was an indisputable fact that northerners were generally not good at water battles.
But if the battlefield is divided into two areas, it will be different.
As the emperor, Zhang Cheng personally led the navy to intercept Huan Wen on the river, but Zhang Hao took the opportunity to go ashore and defeat the defensive forces.

What he wanted to do was not to completely defeat the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but to muddy the situation on the battlefield!
Wait until the army crosses the Yangtze River before launching a fatal attack!

Even Zhang Cheng couldn't defeat the Eastern Jin Dynasty on the Yangtze River, after all, there were too many differences in all aspects!
But even if he can't win, he can still disrupt the situation!

Facing Zhang Hao's frontal charge, after seeing the two armies fighting, Xie An finally understood why the Northern Ming was able to sweep away the Hu people!
Because the fighting power of this group of people is really terrifying!

Looking at the old soldier of the Chiliang Army, who, even though he was stabbed by two swords, still beheaded the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he realized that Huan Wen's failure in the Northern Expedition was not due to insufficient strategy, but to the shortcomings of the Eastern Jin Dynasty itself!
"Press forward, press forward, don't be afraid, Bei Ming is not a beast!"

The loud command made Xie An roar.
But seeing the battle line on the verge of collapse, Xie An drew the long sword from his waist and stepped forward and said: "Follow me, General, and kill!"

"Kill!"

The soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty also mustered up their courage when they saw Xie An approaching.
Seeing that the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, who were about to be broken, actually resisted the pressure again, Zhang Hao could not help but be surprised and said: "These Jiangdong rats still have such courage, they are really amazing!"

"General Zhang, that man is your Majesty's uncle!" Looking at Zhang Hao, the deputy general beside him hurriedly explained,

"What? He is your Majesty's uncle?"

Looking at the deputy general in shock, Zhang Hao was completely dumbfounded and could not help but stand there in a daze.

"Yes, he is the uncle of the Imperial Concubine. Isn't he the uncle of His Majesty?"

The deputy general spoke to Zhang Hao and asked,

"All soldiers, listen up, come with me and capture your Majesty's uncle!"

Looking at Xie An in the distance, Zhang Hao roared.

As Zhang Hao finished speaking, the Chiliang soldiers who were fighting fiercely were stunned in their places, and then looked at Xie An who was coming forward with his sword drawn.
Shocked at this scene, Xie An could not help but freeze in his tracks and asked, "Wait, why are they staring at me like that!"

When a person is stared at by a wolf, he may feel afraid, but if he is stared at by a group of wolves, he will most likely run away.
Xie An was feeling exactly the same way now, because the Chiliang Army from all directions were staring at him intently.
"Go ahead and capture His Majesty the Uncle!"

Roaring hysterically, a Chiliang soldier couldn't help but yelled: "These hundred acres of good farmland belong to me!"

"Get out of here! This is my hundred acres of fertile land!"

As another Chiliang soldier roared, the soldiers around him rushed forward.
"Xie Zhonglang, why don't you run first!"

Seeing the Chiliang army charging forward, the deputy general couldn't help but panic.

"How can I retreat?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, even though Xie An was extremely frightened, he still didn't want to run away, because if he retreated, the defenses on the shore would be completely destroyed!

"Hahaha, who can stop me!"

Holding a broadsword, Zhang Hao led more than a thousand guards and rushed to the big flag.
Looking at Zhang Hao in front of him, Xie An couldn't help but tremble with fear.
Because he is the most powerful general in Northern Ming!
"Xie An?"

Looking at the elegant man in front of him, Zhang Hao couldn't help but smile grimly and said, "If you weren't His Majesty's uncle, I would really like to hang your head on the flag!"

"Your Majesty's uncle?"

Hearing this, Xie An immediately roared: "Stop talking nonsense! When did my Xie family have any relationship with the thief Zhang?"

"Your Majesty's Imperial Consort is the daughter of the Xie family. So, we are relatives, right? Why not surrender?"

Walking forward, Zhang Hao swung the knife in his hand without stopping.

But looking at Zhang Hao, Xie An reacted fiercely: "You thieves, you actually kidnapped my niece!"

"What do you mean by tying? We robbed them!"

Rushing forward, Zhang Hao slashed with his sword, directly chopping Xie An away.
But before Xie An could even get up, Zhang Hao had already killed all the guards around him.
"Boom!"

The big flag broke, and Xie An looked at the scene in disbelief. He simply couldn't believe that the Eastern Jin Dynasty had invested so many troops and sent out talented generals, but the defense of the Yangtze River was broken in just a few days. Could it be that the Northern Ming was really invincible?

On the battlefield on the river, when Zhang Cheng saw Zhang Hao tearing through the defense, he immediately raised the long spear in his hand and roared: "The Ming Dynasty is mighty!"

"The Ming Dynasty is mighty!"

Amid the deafening roar, Huan Wen also looked at the shore and immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Because this time, he really was powerless to save the situation.
