Chapter 755: Battle of South Lake County II

In a short period of time, Shenwuwei had to be supported by Dongting County.

It takes time to break into the hinterland of Nanhu County, and it takes time to find notorious big households. It takes even more time to scavenge and transport food from their homes.

There are many rivers in Nanhu County, more than Dongting County.

What Zhao Long lacked the most was the warship, and Shi Kuan could only lack more than him.

In Nanhu County, where the water system is developed and there are many rivers, the three thousand soldiers and horses of Shikuan had a hard time walking.

The resistance of the Shun army was a small problem. The main thing was the rivers, creeks and swamps that stopped in front of them after walking for a while. It was too annoying.

Especially the swamp, which may look like a lush grass on the surface, but the bottom is actually a swamp, and if you step into it, you may be swallowed up.

And most of these swamps still have miasma, and if you want to pass through, you have to prepare detoxification pills, which is very troublesome!

It would take a long time to go around, but after only two days in Nanhu County, Shi Kuan felt like he was going to lose his hair!

Ugh!

In fact, Zhao Long had to take the blame. Nanhu County has been developed for many years, and the mountains, rivers and lakes in the county have been fully utilized for a long time. There are only some swamps in the area next to Dongting Lake.

It's not that the Nanhu County government does not want to develop it, but the actual control of these swamps is not in the hands of the government, but in the hands of the aristocratic family.

Of course, the Nanhu County family only secretly controlled these places, and the government acquiesced to them. After all, these swamps are not only remote, but also difficult to develop, with too much investment and too little output.

Then why do you blame Zhao Long?

Because the order he gave Shi Kuan was to attack the hinterland of Nanhu County with the fastest speed, which cut off the possibility of Shi Kuan marching from the official road.

The official road march was really fast, but Shunjun intercepted it.

Liu Jiwu's 100,000 Shun Army not only defended by the Dongting Lake, but also had tens of thousands of soldiers (most of them recruits) available locally in Nanhu County. It was impossible to defeat Shi Kuan, and it was still possible to intercept them for a while.

Either go all the way from the official road, or go around from a remote area.

Shi Kuan chose the latter path, but now he regrets it.

"If I had known that the swamp was so difficult to walk, it would be better to hit it directly from the official road."

In the past, when Shenwuwei fought, it was when they encountered mountains and opened mountains, and when they encountered water and crossed water, how could they worry about the terrain.

The current Shenwuwei is more powerful than before, Shi Kuan never thought that he would be hindered by the terrain.

It's just that it's too late to change lanes now, so I can only waste time.

Even if it's not good, you have to go!

Shi Kuan led a battalion of Shenwu Guards to struggle and march in the corner of Nanhu County, and all the patrols and scouts of the Shun Army were easily eliminated by him.

But this is not necessarily a good thing, and Shi Kuan cannot guarantee to wipe out all the troops on the road.

The Shun Army probably already knew that a cadre of troops was breaking into the hinterland of Nanhu County from a remote road, and the cities along the way were strengthening their guards.

Zhao Long wanted to let Shi Kuan quickly break into Nanhu County to **** food and grass.

With preparations, the Shun Kingdom city cannot be easily captured, and Shi Kuan's troops are not strong enough to capture a normal-sized city.

There are a total of eleven cities in Nanhu County, of which Nanhu County is a large city with more than 500,000 inhabitants. Shi Kuan's three or five thousand soldiers and horses could not even touch the city walls in the past.

Even if it was an ordinary county town, Shi Kuan had to use some tactics to capture it.

If a county town knew in advance that the Gan army was going to attack the city and prepared for defense, it would not be easy for the five thousand Shenwuwei to attack it.

So Zhao Long didn't think about breaking the city of Nanhu County from the beginning, but let Shi Kuan target the numerous docks in the hinterland of Nanhu County.

Some of these docks were built by the government, and more were built jointly or independently by the Nanhu County family.

In the past, the government of Shunguo did not allow people to build a dock. This kind of building was built by the people to resist the government from the day it was born.

Valley Suburb Any court with strong power and strong control over the country will basically not indulge the people in building dock castles.

Except for special countries, among the three major hegemonic countries, except for Shunguo, the other two countries do not restrict the private construction of docks.

Because there is no limit to the restrictions, the noble family of Qi State is very powerful. Every time an official proposes a memorial to restrict the construction of the fort by the people, the officials from the noble family will suppress it.

There are local officials who want to prevent the family under his rule from building the fort, but the results are often not very good.

The Chu family is even worse than the Qi family, because the royal family is the largest family. Under the leadership of some unwilling royal families, the major families not only build docks, but even small cities.

These small cities are like small kingdoms, and the words of the King of Chu won't work here.

Only Shunguo, from the founding of the country, has made every effort to crack down on the construction of docks by the people.

Whoever dares to build it will destroy it.

Until Yang Yuan was born, the Shenwei Army under the command of Yang Yuan won many battles, and the Shunguo lost their helmets and armor, and the noble families in Dongting County and Nanhu County were bold enough to build docks one after another. Fort.

Later, Dongting County was occupied by the Gan army, and Wubao in Nanhu County increased a lot.

Shi Kuan liked the increase in the fort, "It's good to have more, the whole family stays in the fort, just wait for me to come to the door!"

It has been three days since Shi Kuan came out of the swamp, far exceeding the time limit set for him by Zhao Long.

There is no way to do this. War is full of unpredictability, and even Shenwuwei cannot control the overall situation.

......

Dongting County, after Zhao Long's order came, the generals who stayed behind immediately prepared to transport food and grass to Nanhu County.

Yang Yuan has already filled the granary. They have one less mobilization step than the Shun army. They only need to load the grain onto the ship and transport it to Nanhu County.

"You must be careful when you get to the lake. There are still many ferry crossings for the Shunjun army. There should be ships of the Shunjun army on the lake. Don't be attacked by them."

"Understood, I will be careful."

The Ganjun general who stayed behind in Dongting County watched as the grain-carrying fleet turned into several black spots on the lake and slowly disappeared.

He wished he could personally **** grain and grass to Nanhu County~lightnovelpub.net~ Unfortunately, he couldn't go!

Although Zhao Long did not think that the Shun army would counterattack Dongting County, the necessary defense was still needed.

It's just that the generals who stayed behind were unlucky and could only stay behind, basically missing the battle.

On Dongting Lake, Xu Fan still led the fleet to wander around the lake.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight, it's just that he doesn't want to fight the dry army on the shore.

He worked hard for more than half a month to train these thousands of sailors, and it was not a waste of half a month to go to the shore to fight against the dry army!

"My judgment will not be wrong, the army will definitely transport grain from Dongting County..."

Xu Fan kept encouraging himself in his heart.

However, it also depends on the battle on the shore. As long as the dry army does not grab enough food on the shore, they must transport food from Dongting County.

"Liu Shuai should be able to block the offensive of the Gan army."

Xu Fan respects Liu Jiwu, who has given him full confidence. He also believes in Liu Jiwu's strength, and it is impossible for Qian Jun to defeat him!

Xu Fan's trust in Liu Jiwu did not increase his combat effectiveness in the slightest.

The second day after Shenwuwei ascended Nanhu County, he broke through several fortresses, and the offensive became more and more violent.
