Chapter 507 Don't stop the explosion

Zhenjiang.

"What? This is a blatant rebellion!"

Governor Yang slapped the table in anger.

Huishan Zhongwang Army and Chang Jie Army suddenly had a large-scale fire exchange. The two sides fired each other with heavy artillery for an hour. After dawn, more than 500 shells weighing more than fifteen kilograms were picked up from Changjie Army Huishan Fort, and one-third of the buildings in the fort were destroyed.

However, there were not many casualties, only eight were killed and twenty wounded.

I have to say that the defense ability of the bastion is amazing. In fact, the buildings in the bastion are temporarily occupied by soldiers. Once they fight, they all hide in the caves on the inner wall of the bastion, and then they are basically in the tunnels on the top of the bastion. Even if the ammunition is under the caves, the groundwater level in the south of the Yangtze River is still low. The ammunition in the north is all in the underground warehouses, and the transportation and use are also through the tunnels inside the thick guardrail of the bastion.

The Loyal and Brave Army suffered similar casualties, after all, the fortresses and cannons on both sides were basically the same.

But this doesn't matter.

What is important is that when such a thing happens in such a special time of tension, the result is undoubtedly a full-scale war between the two sides...

"Horse Hejian, this is not right!"

Gao Hongtu said with a serious expression.

"According to Changjie Army, the Zhongyong Army sent people to attack across the border and killed one of their posts and four soldiers, which caused them to retaliate against each other. Then the Zhongyong Army also opened fire, which eventually led to this battle.

But Zhongyongjun said he had never done it.

Then the most important thing at this time is to find out the truth.

At this time, no one can say whose responsibility is.

Besides, the two sides have not taken further action, and this matter is not our responsibility. Zhaoyi City Supervisor and Governor Yingtian will go to find out the truth. We should continue to go to Jiangxi at this time. Our responsibility is to wipe out the rebels in Zhejiang. What we have nothing to do with us. Xu Du is about to approach Yiyang, Wei Guang on the southern front is threatening Wenzhou, and Zhang Mingzhen has begun to attack Yanzhou. At this time, Zhejiang is the most critical. If we continue to stay here, the whole Zhejiang will be in the hands of a thief.

The Marquis of Hejian, the subordinate officer, asked the Marquis of Hejian to advance to Jiangxi quickly as a military supervisor."

He said.

This is indeed very sudden.

And it was full of doubts. It was said that at this time, the Gentleman Su Song would not deliberately give Yang Xin an excuse. After all, Xu Du was mobilized to cause trouble to the east. Now that the disaster really came, he had no intention of leading him to himself. So far, what he knew about this was that both sides were shelling each other. In addition, Chang Jiejun said that the Zhongyong Army sneaked into the post to kill them, but the Zhongyong Army firmly denied this. The Zhongyong Army believed that Chang Jiejun deliberately created an explosion and then provoked a war.

And what they said makes sense.

If the loyal and brave army really wanted to attack them, it would be too stupid to make such an explosion. You have to dig tunnels to bury gunpowder underneath.

Not to mention the bastion, it can't even be blown up if you find an old rammed earth wall. What does the Loyal Army mean to blow up? Is it just because I'm idle and just having fun? In short, this matter is very strange, and there are many things that cannot be explained. Poor Gao Jung-in-law, he didn't know that it would be correct. A crazy mastermind was manipulating all this, and of course his normal mind couldn't explain it.

But Gao Hongtu knows something.

There are so many dreams in the night, so Yang Xin must not be allowed to stay here. He must get this guy away anyway.

However……

"uncle!"

Yang Huan ran in with a panic look on his face.

"What a panic, the sky hasn't collapsed yet!"

Yang Xin shouted.

"Uncle, the general of the Zhongyong Army ordered the entire army to gather and prepare for war!"

Yang Huan said seriously, wiping his sweat.

The total strength of the Loyal and Brave Army is five armies, but in fact, one army is maintained at the actual service, and the remaining four armies are transferred to the so-called reserve service. The gathering of the entire army means that the commanders and battalions commanders of the other four armies have been converted into local officials, all of whom have been converted into militias, and with their respective weapons, they gather together to prepare for battle. Even those reserve militias who are not the Loyal and Brave Army must gather in their own villages and wait for their orders, and once they encounter enemy invasion, they will defend on the spot. In short, this means that more than 300,000 young and strong people in Zhaoyi City are currently preparing to fight to defend the happy life they have just obtained.

They will fight to the end.

Their entire army gathered to prepare for war, and the result was that the regiments on the opposite side were also ready for war.

The two sides sounded the horn of the war.

After more than two years of peace, the gentry and militia on this land will once again start a new round of war...

"It's just a little misunderstanding, just go and explain it clearly."

Gao Hongtu struggled.

His struggles are destined to be futile.

At this moment, a faint explosion suddenly came into his ears.

“Where is the explosion?”

Governor Yang shouted.

After saying that, he hurriedly ran out, Gao Hongtu followed with sweat on his head. The two stood in front of the door and looked at the sky in surprise, where a black smoke of gunpowder was rising slowly...

"The Dantu Fort of the Huwei Army!"

Yang Huan screamed in shock.

The next moment, a rocket suddenly soared into the sky in Zhenjiang City and turned into exploded smoke.

"The convening order of the Huwei Army!"

Yang Huan said.

Then there was the bells ringing in the city, then the trumpets, and then the chaotic shouts outside. When Yang Xin led them out of the gate, all the Huwei Army, who were originally guarding them nearby, gathered and lined up to the south. Then Ge Lin's figure also appeared. The Huwei Army commander had a serious face and rushed towards the front with a large number of half-armored cavalry. All the cavalry were spears, sabers and short spears, and they all looked very majestic in their cloaks.

"Stop them!"

Yang Xin shouted.

Kong Youde, who was standing guard outside, got on his horse without hesitation and picked up his spear.

"Brothers, follow me!"

He shouted.

The three hundred cavalry immediately got on the horse and quickly stepped forward under his leadership. The latter took off his short spear without hesitation on the horse's back and then aimed at Kong Youde. The cavalry who arrived behind him quickly separated into a row on both sides of him, aiming at Kong Youde's three hundred cavalry one by one.

The latter is not afraid.

Kong Youde, who relied on military merit in the Liaodong battlefield for five years, went from a small soldier to a guerrilla warrior, would not have been scared by a few short guns.

"Put down the gun!"

Yang Xin shouted.

"Hejian Hou is responsible for defending his home, and there is no need for Hejian Hou's command."

Ge Lin said without showing any weakness.

"one!"

Yang Xin shouted with a gloomy face.

"two!"

Then he shouted.

"three!"

With his three words, Ge Lin put down his gun.

It is obvious that he still dared not risk angering Yang Xin after all, and he mainly threatened Governor Yang at such a distance. No one has ever had a good ending and he doesn't want to do the next one.

"I only want to know what happened and have no intention to stop you. I am acting fairly and honestly. If the loyal and brave army crosses the border without authorization, I will never protect it. But if the regiments and soldiers provoke war without authorization, I will never tolerate it.

This governor doesn't care about your past grudges.

Previously, I have already dealt with the affairs of that year on behalf of Your Majesty and set a dividing line for you. Then I will ask you to live in peace after obeying the imperial edict. No matter who, no matter you or them, who dares not obey Your Majesty’s imperial edict, I will punish you on behalf of Your Majesty.”

Yang Xin said.

Ge Lin obviously despised him.

At this time, a cavalry who reported the news ran over from behind Yang Xin. This was from the Huwei Army. He bypassed them and went straight to Ge Lin and whispered something.

"Horse of Hejian, Huwei's army was blown up by spies in the gunpowder depot of Dantu Fort, and more than a dozen brothers were killed. Ge suspected that it was done by the Zhongyong Army and was preparing to attack Dantu Fort and was about to go to investigate."

Ge Lin said.

"Go, but don't cross the line!"

Yang Xin said.

After saying that, he signaled to Kong Youde, who quickly separated with his cavalry. Ge Lin looked at Yang Xin deeply and rushed by with his subordinates. At this time, the infantry of the Huwei Army in Zhenjiang City had also flowed out of the city. They stationed two infantry brigades in Zhenjiang, and a cavalry brigade and an infantry brigade in Jurong. Ge Lin's command was actually in Jurong. This time, he brought the cavalry to welcome Governor Yang.

The one who just exploded was Dantu Castle.

This is the main fortress of the Huwei Army outside Zhenjiang City, but it was originally a town, so it was not a real bastion, and it was transformed from the original inspection city.

There are even inspections.

The gunpowder warehouse is an ordinary warehouse to store. It is not the real focus of defense, it is just a little storage for easy access. The real defense of the Huwei Army relies on Zhenjiang Prefecture City, which is at most a frontline warning, similar to a border checkpoint. In addition, it is a dock, so it creates opportunities for spies to get in. The rest is nothing more than digging a tunnel worth dozens of meters. Of course, it is not necessary to say who the spy sent.

Mrs. Long has a Rangers.

Moreover, they are composed of real dead soldiers. Even if they are caught unexpectedly, there is no need to worry. These dead soldiers are all crazy believers of Governor Yang. They regard Governor Yang as their spiritual leader. Not to mention asking them to engage in assassination and blasting, they even charge in a gunpowder barrel without hesitation.

This is what Yang Xin has been struggling with.

He doesn't like to be worshipped as a god, but in fact, among his own real subordinates, he treats him as a god, so most of the contents of Keshi's previous disclosure to the Apocalypse were actually true. But the problem is that he can't stop it. Governor Yang talks about science. While he talks about science, his subordinates are offering his tablets to worship. This feeling is very strange.

Of course, he actually knew that he was obviously unscientific.

An unscientific existence adheres to a scientific worldview...

Governor Yang is sometimes very messy.

"Brother Yanwen, I want to go to Jiangxi, but this situation does not allow it!"

Yang Xin said with a pure face.

Gao Hongtu was about to say something, and another cavalry rushed over, but this was the Jinyiwei. Seeing his expression, Gao Hongtu knew that another bad news had arrived. He silently watched the Jinyiwei rushed forward and rolled over and dismounted to salute.

"Report to the Governor, the Tianxiong Army on the front line of Jintan raided the Zhongyong Army Huxi Fort."
