Poor Cai You...

Well, he is indeed pitiful because he was thrown to Fang Qifo by Wang Yue.

The great painters cannot throw them away, but Cai You can completely replace them. Anyway, the main reason for Fang La's rebellion was the Cai family and the Zhu Xie family of Cai Jing and his gang. They used the scattered and levy in the Zhejiang area through Hua Shigang. Cai Jing was indeed dead, and Zhu Xie was still in Hangzhou for the time being. If the great painters cannot give them, then of course Cai You will be responsible for venting their anger.

And it’s not just Fang Qi Buddha’s gang, but also those soldiers from the imperial camp.

They are all poor people recruited by Zhejiang, and they hate these people too!

Wang Yue has incorporated the entire imperial camp.

It was actually a mutiny.

After Yue Fei arrested the great painter, Wang Yue quickly incorporated the imperial camps in front and then took them north to continue sweeping along the canal. He used the banner to capture the Gao Qiu brothers, and when his big killer weapon was thrown out, of course, there would be no other result.

Gao Qiu tried to gather the imperial camp to retreat to Suzhou, but his subordinates mutiny and both of their brothers were hacked to death by mutiny soldiers.

Most of the imperial camps surrendered to Wang Yue.

A small number of them were also disintegrated, and less than 3,000 people fled to Suzhou and stood behind closed doors with local officials in Suzhou. However, they were purely self-indulgent. Wang Yue did not attack Suzhou at all. He directly led the imperial camp and the ever-victorious army of the brigade to the canal. Then he easily captured Xiuzhou, cleaned up the local officials and gentry in Xiuzhou with the mission of supporting the rebels, and divided the fields and militias, leaving the brigade to station in Xiuzhou. He then led the imperial camp that had turned against him to Hangzhou again.

Hangzhou.

"Carry a million troops on the West Lake and immediately get the first peak of Wushan!"

Wang Yuezhi said with satisfaction.

"Zi Fen is so literary!"

The great painter flattered him.

Well, although he is arrested now, he only needs to wear handcuffs on a daily basis. As the Supreme Emperor, he still has great freedom. However, no matter where he goes, there are Yue Fei and several representatives of the Four Minions to follow him.

It's also considered a custody.

And his main job now is to try his best to flatter Wang Yue.

After all, he knows who has the final say.

"Are your Majesty interested in painting?"

Wang Yue said.

"Zhongshan King Punishes the Thieves?"

The great painter said eagerly.

They were outside the Wulin Gate at this moment, but they were called Yuhang Gate at this time. The name Wulin Gate was only called by the Ming Dynasty. The north gate of this Hangzhou City stood not far ahead, and the city wall was ready. While Wang Yue was purged by the officials and gentry in Xiuzhou and defeated local tyrants and distributed lands in various places south of Xiuzhou, Zhu Xie had quickly organized defenses with the support of Zhejiang gentry.

He has no way out.

Either they fought to the death with Wang Yue in Hangzhou, or they fled from Hangzhou and were killed by Zhejiang gentry.

He is truly angry with both man and gods in Zhejiang.

If he fights with Wang Yue in Hangzhou, then he will be valuable to the gentry of Zhejiang, and others will support him to resist. But if he does not fight with Wang Yue, then he will have no value. With his public anger, he will have no value to die!

At this time, there was still no major change in the Yangtze River battlefield in the north. Han Chang did capture Chuzhou, and Xiang Ziqian abandoned the city and fled, but also fled into Yangzhou. Quan Bangyan, the governor of Yangzhou Prefecture, was ordered again to be in danger and to command the army with the Jiangbei Xuanfu envoy. All the defeated troops who shot water, including Xiang Ziqian's troops, Fu Xuan and others, retreated into Yangzhou City and relied on this solid fortress to defend. Zhao Zisong, the commander of Huaixi, abandoned Haozhou and led the Haozhou defenders to south for reinforcements.

He personally stayed in Qingliu Pass.

It was not to resist the Northern Song army, there was no Northern Song army in this direction, but to stop Liu Yanqing and his son from escaping.

The latter must also go to Qingliu Pass to escape.

Otherwise he would have to leave Quanjiao, but Quanjiao was also blocked...

I have to say that this is also embarrassing.

In short, although the great painter was captured, the small court in Zhenjiang did not collapse. In fact, they were liberated instead and no longer had to fight with treacherous ministers like Cai You and Gao Qiu. The princes led by Lu Haowen could get rid of the constraints.

Moreover, they quickly supported Zhao Shu, who had been supported by the governor, to succeed the throne.

Then rebuild the new imperial court.

After all, when it comes to this kind of hatred of the enemy, it doesn't matter who the emperor is. All the gentry in Jiangnan wants is a flag to resist Wang Yue. This flag is better than a great painter. The great painter has his confidants, and his confidants are originally treacherous ministers in the eyes of the gentry in Jiangnan. Without the great painter, Zhao Shu is just a puppet they can control at will. The great painter and his treacherous ministers have their own minds, but Zhao Shu can be at their mercy.

This is the perfect emperor.

Moreover, this time is different from the original history. In history, Jiangnan did not have the ability to resist the Jurchen army, and in the end he had to rely on those who went south from the north.

But this time in the past few years of confrontation with Wang Yue, Jiangnan had established a real army, and even because of the large amount of firearms, the combat effectiveness was not weak. For example, Chen Go could withstand the Changsheng Army for two days, and they had the ability to defend in the attack of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Just keep in Yangzhou.

If you defend Yangzhou, you will not be afraid of the Northern Song army crossing the river.

Yang Zaixing did hit the Yangtze River, but he was also limited to a protruding part. The father and son of the Liu family in Yangzhou and Chuzhou were afraid to cross the river in this case. Once he could not open Zhenjiang after crossing the river, his back would be very dangerous. Moreover, even if he crossed the river, he had to face the strong city of Zhenjiang. When attacking Zhenjiang, he had to face the back prick of Jiangning. In short, Zhenjiang, Yangzhou, Jiangning and Chuzhou jointly formed a tight defense circle and still firmly guarded the Yangtze River defense line.

And the Imperial Camp navy also went back.

This 20,000 navy had already left the Yangtze River, but met the navy of the Eternal Victory Army. Knowing that the great painter was going to be unlucky, they immediately killed their commander, Gao Qiu's other younger brother, and then turned around and returned to the Yangtze River to join the Zhenjiang court again.

In this way, Wang Yue's lonely army relied on Zhu Xie.

"It is better to have a picture of King Zhongshan pacifying the thief."

Wang Yue said.

"Captain Yue!"

The great painter immediately raised his hands and said to Yue Fei.

The latter silently took out the key and temporarily opened the handcuffs for him. The great painter moved his hands. At the same time, the soldiers behind Wang Yue raised the table, spread rice paper and painted brushes and colored ink, and the great painter instantly switched to the artist's state.

Wang Yue slowly walked forward.

Flames immediately erupted on the Yuhang Gate wall, and a middle-aged man in a purple robe was waving his sword, and then the stone bullets shot from the bowl gun fell in front of Wang Yue.

Wang Yue ignored it.

He stood there with his hands behind his back to watch the scene. The seven Buddhas behind him commanded the soldiers in heavy armor. Under the protection of one shield cart, he pushed a special giant Lu Bus forward and quickly stopped beside him. King Wang walked up the stairs next to him, then sat down on the throne on the roof, and a panda flag fluttered behind him, but he was the only one on the Lu Bus, and his giant Mo Knife was also inserted. Next to the throne was a shield made of pure steel.

"attack!"

Fang Qifo below roared excitedly.

The shield chariot that protected them immediately stepped forward, and then the heavily armored soldiers behind pushed the Lu Gongche.

This thing looks like a giant, but it is actually not too heavy. It is nothing more than a huge wooden rack. On an equally huge wooden chassis, the wheels are densely packed around it, made of solid shipbuilding camphor wood. Not to mention the bowl gun, even the franchiser cannot be used.

Moreover, there were a few buffaloes in front of them, and the soldiers on both sides were just auxiliary.

The huge Lu Gongbu slowly moved forward outside the Wulin Gate in winter. Then flames erupted again from Yuhang Gate, and stone bullets roared. One of them hit Lu Gongbu, but the power of this stone bullet could produce some wood chips without any effect at all. Then there was the iron feather arrow of the crossbow, which caused certain damage to the soldiers below, but no one stopped. They were all dead soldiers under Fang Qifu. At this moment, they were pushing Wang Yue like the wise king they believed in.

As the iron feather arrow roared, Wang Yue was still sitting quietly.

Suddenly there was a whistling whistling through the air.

The shield that was originally standing beside him suddenly raised, and then an iron feather arrow hit the shield. The huge force hit him suddenly backwards, but the throne fixed on the Lu Bus immediately blocked him, and the iron feather arrow that could not penetrate a centimeter thick carburized wrought iron at the same time flew away instantly.

Wang Yue sat proudly.

There was a fanatical cheer around, and the cheers behind were even more like a tsunami.

Then Lu Gongche continued.

He soon arrived at the moat. At the same time, the sharp arrows on the city wall fell like raindrops. The bullets of the three-eyed gun roared by, and the shotgun sprayed by the bowl-mouth gun swept across, even mixed with increasingly accurate iron feather arrows. However, Wang Yue continued to hold his shield and kept blocking all the weapons that attacked him.

The soldiers below continued to suffer casualties, but the dead men did not retreat and pushed the Lu Gongbuo to continue and quickly entered the wide moat. However, there was no water in the moat. The militia who had just divided the land by Wang Yue took less than ten days to dig a river channel in the north and lure the water of the canal. The water of this moat was originally the extension of the canal channel to the west. The upper reaches of the river will of course be no water. As for the silt at the bottom of the river, it is very simple...

This is the first month of the year.

In this winter, which is almost the coldest in the Song Dynasty, a new cold wave is sweeping across the south of the Yangtze River, and even the Taihu Lake has been frozen.

The moat is covered with permafrost.

The huge Lu Bus was pushed into the moat in this way.

The blockade on the city wall was even more intense. Although they had given up attacking Wang Yue due to the height difference, they concentrated their firepower to attack the soldiers below. The casualties of the soldiers pushing the cart increased dramatically. Even with shields and heavy armor, their dead bodies continued to fall.

But they still did not retreat and pushed the Lu Gongche slowly through the last few dozen meters.

More reinforcements are also coming and joining the ranks of push carts.
