Chapter 290 Defending the Yellow River(2/2)

The location that Jiannu chose again was very tricky, because there were two small and small landblocks near the river embankment. These two landblocks seriously blocked the shooting angle of the navy's ship and can no longer be hit.

Seeing Jiannu start digging the embankment again, Zheng Hongkui suddenly became anxious.

Zheng Hongkui shouted to the deck: "A Cai, please take four people on a sampan to transfer troops and transfer all the nearby warships."

He paused and said, "Then go to Xuzhou to report the news!"

"Our navy alone may not be able to stop Jiannu."

"Please call the emperor to quickly call the army to stop Jiannu, hurry up!"

"Yes!" Zheng Caiying said, and immediately took people to put down a sampan.

Then Zheng Cai took four sailors from the bird boat to the sampan. The four sailors also brought the sampan. The four sampans flew up and down, stirring up splashes of water. The small sampan in a shuttle shape slid downstream like an arrow off the string. Zheng Cai sat at the tail of the sampan and controlled the direction.

...

In the middle of the night.

In the night, a fast horse rushed from the direction of Kaifeng Prefecture City.

When I was just passing an intersection, more than a dozen mutton fat torches suddenly lit up like ghosts in the darkness around me.

The cavalry running on the official road was shocked and slammed the reins. The war horse under his crotch stood up, and the huge iron hooves kicked in the air for several times, barely holding them.

"Mikeke!" a voice shouted sternly.

Then dozens of cavalry and Yi Ding came out of the fire.

"General Hu!" Yi Ding, named Mikeqi, said happily, "Hurry! Go back to Xuzhou and report to the emperor, ask the emperor to quickly call the army to Kaifeng Prefecture. Jiannu is going to dig the Yellow River embankment!"

"What? Jiannu is going to dig the Yellow River embankment?!" Hu Guozhu felt a stern when he heard this.

The next moment, Hu Guozhu turned around and shouted: "Ba Hanzhen, immediately take people to Guide Mansion, and ask Lord Jin to lead the cavalry camp to Kaifeng Mansion quickly, and then return to Xuzhou to report to the emperor!"

"Yes." Bahanzhen pulled his horse and rushed away.

Several cavalry and Yi Ding left with Bahanzhen.

"Let's go, go to Kaifeng Prefecture." Hu Guozhu pulled his horse and left.

"General, we only have nineteen horses, and now there are only fourteen horses left."

A horseman caught up with Hu Guozhu and said loudly, "What's the use even if you go?"

"Then let us notify other Yi Dings and go to Kaifeng as soon as possible." Even Hu Guozhu himself did not realize that after staying by Chongzhen for a long time and spending time with those king-stricken scholars, his way of thinking had undergone tremendous changes.

Although he was a Mongolian, Hu Guozhu's way of thinking has been completely Chineseized.

Even from the bottom of my heart, Hu Guozhu did not think he was a Mongolian.

But just think that he is a Ming Dynasty person.

This is a big deal.

...

Early the next morning.

Jin Hyun was dressed neatly and walked out of the tent.

In the quiet morning light, the three thousand cavalrymen in the cavalry battalion were having breakfast.

Breakfast is as usual, but this time it was too fast to come out and there was no pot of boiling water, so I could only knead the fermented black beans and a small piece of vinegar steamed cake and mix and chew it, otherwise I would not be able to eat it at all.

If your mouth is really dry, eat a piece of black plum to moisten your throat.

Although Jin Hyun is a fifth-rank civil servant, he can only eat the same dry food.

Moreover, Jin Hyun didn't look like he couldn't swallow it at all, and he didn't need black plums.

For a ruthless person like Jin Hyun, this little bit of suffering is not even considered a miserable one.

After a hurry to have breakfast, Jin Hyun was about to gather people when the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in front of him.

Then several cavalrymen arrived as if they were flying. The first cavalry was Ba Hanzhen, one of the ten loyal and brave men in front of the emperor.

Before Jin Xuan asked, Ba Hanzhen shouted loudly: "Mr. Jin, Jiannu is going to dig the Yellow River embankment. Hu Junmen asks you to lead the cavalry battalion to Kaifeng Prefecture to stop Jiannu!"

"Well? Jiannu wants to dig the Yellow River embankment?!"

Jin Xuan's sneered: "Transfer our military orders, and the whole camp will get on horseback and go to Kaifeng Prefecture!"

With Jin Xuan's order, three thousand iron cavalry rose on their horses and followed Jin Xuan toward Kaifeng.
