After that, every time the capital sent troops to the southern front, no one volunteered, and they almost held a lottery to decide the lucky winner.
This time the Yuezhou army headed straight for the capital, and the situation was the same.
In the end, King Xuan stood up. There was no other way. The battle had already come this far. If we couldn't hold on, we were finished. There was no point in playing the fool.
But Cui Dongcheng is different. At worst, he can just retire from the limelight and return to the underworld, living a happy life.
So he was extremely unhappy about King Xuan pulling him out.
But he didn't say anything and just followed the order.
He was making plans in his mind, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he retreated. This is smart, also called following his heart.
Just as the officials in the court heard Yang Hongye lose his temper.
The Yuezhou army has begun to cross the river in full swing.
Instead of crossing the river at Qingrong Wharf, Jiang Hai and his team chose another place closer to the official road.
There are so many people. Although Qingrong Wharf is big, it cannot accommodate so many troops. Moreover, there are too many commercial shops near the entrance and exit roads.
If a fight breaks out there, it would be very undesirable.
The troops were divided into two groups, most of them crossed the Qingshui River, and the remaining 30,000 or so troops went from Qingshui to Rongjiang and passed from the east of the capital.
Jiang Hai and Yuchi Zhong followed the team to Rongjiang.
The chosen landing site was near Yang Hongye’s Wangjiang Tower.
When Jiang Hai and his team arrived near the landing site.
From the road beside the river on the east side came the rumbling sound of horse hooves, as if an army was on the march.
Jiang Hai was puzzled as to why there were still troops here at this time.
"Old Taishan, did you hear that? Which army is this from?"
Yuchi Zhong thought for a moment, his eyes lit up,
"It might be General Zhou from Donggu coming here."
"What? What is he doing here? Looking for a fight?"
"Haha, my dear son-in-law, don't get excited. When we arrived in Yuezhou, I sent someone to deliver a letter to the two brothers of the Zhou family.
If it's them, they're here to support us."
"I see."
Jiang Hai nodded. It seemed that his father-in-law had a very close relationship with the Zhou brothers, to the extent that they could rebel together.
When the boat arrived at the landing point, Jiang Hai looked through the telescope at the army assembled on the east bank of the river and saw that they were indeed holding a battle flag with the word "Zhou" on it.
"If it really is them, then we'll take them to Rongjiang later, otherwise it will take them forever to find a boat to cross the river."
"Very good, go over and say hello to them."
It's rare to see an old friend, and Yuchi Zhong smiled brightly.
Jiang Hai's ship sailed to the east coast, while the other ships headed west to land.
After the soldiers on dozens of ships disembarked and reached the west bank of the Rong River, they turned back to meet Zhou Yi's army coming from Donggu Pass.
Zhou Yi left his younger brother Zhou Mo at Donggu Pass and led an army of nearly 20,000 all the way here.
The northeast direction was not within the Yuezhou Army's target, so no scouts were sent to explore that direction.
It was only at this time that we discovered that they had arrived.
When the two armies joined together, their number reached nearly 50,000.
The army marched in formation towards the east gate of the capital. Jiang Hai looked at Wangjiang Tower.
"The location is pretty good. We can build a playground here later."
Young Master Jiang is already planning to build a new capital.
This damn sense of relief.
Coming to the capital is like visiting a young man to get something, and bringing something for the sixth child to play with.
As the Yuezhou army landed in two directions in the southeast, they marched towards the capital.
The people outside Rong'an City closed their doors and windows.
Many people who were unaware of the situation thought something had happened when suddenly a large army marched straight towards the capital.
Jiang Hai was well prepared for this. Before marching into the capital, he asked Huang Haitang to print a lot of leaflets.
Publicize Yang Hongye's crime of patricide and seizing power, and then publicize how Lao Liu built the south and brought great benefits to the people.
The flyer designed by Old Man Huang himself is definitely an eye-catcher.
[Shocked, Yang Hongye actually did something like this in the palace.]
[The three thousand beauties in the harem wept till their eyes were red, yet someone actually committed such a beastly act.]
[The King of Yue spent all his wealth and even pawned his last pair of underwear for the people of the south.]
…
Titles like these are so catchy that you can’t take your eyes off them.
All kinds of eye-catching, ambiguous, and borderline things are Huang Haitang's specialties.
Yang Hongjin didn't know about this until he accidentally discovered the leaflets while crossing the river.
His expression froze instantly, and he wanted Jiang Hai to retract those eye-catching things he wrote about him and not post them.
As a result, after being lectured by Jiang Hai, he put on a bitter face and agreed.
The army arrived at the outskirts of the capital, but did not attack the city immediately that day.
Another wave of confrontation.
Now that the leaflets outside the capital have been distributed, the people inside the capital have not yet been baptized by this new city-style leaflet.
That wouldn't work. Jiang Hai stopped hiding and ordered Qin Shi's Flying Camp to launch hot air balloons one by one and fly towards the capital.
Then flyers started falling all over the sky.
There are many styles of flyers. In addition to the novel titles, the appearance is also novel.
There are high-quality imitations of the previous silver notes, high-quality imitations of calligraphy and paintings, pictures of beauties, pictures of scholars, and even high-quality imitations of official edicts.
On the one hand, it tricks people into picking up the items, and on the other hand, it provides promotional content with eye-catching headlines.
This wave of outrageous operations even spared the imperial palace.
The most common flyers distributed in the palace were those with scholar illustrations. Those who understand will understand.
"Your Majesty, this is bad. The Yuezhou Army has gone up to the sky. They are spreading this kind of stuff in the sky."
The eunuch in the palace got the flyer and hurried to show it to Yang Hongye.
After taking a stack of flyers and reading them, Yang Hongye immediately became furious.
Looking at the title and content, Yang Hongye almost vomited blood.
In addition to explaining his crimes, there are also slanders against his character and rumors about his tendencies. There is everything, the main point being that he is unworthy of his position.
"Come, pass on my order to go out of the city to meet the enemy and kill this shameless thing."
Yang Hongye could no longer sit still, his eyes were so irritated that they seemed to be spitting fire.
If anyone in the capital dared to talk about this kind of thing, he would be chopped off.
And now, Jiang Hai was brazenly deploying it all over the city. It was like he was throwing his dignity to the ground, trampling on it, and then rubbing it a few times.
The instigator, Young Master Jiang, sighed at the East City Gate.
“Look, Old Taishan, the walls of this capital are just too bad.
What do you think about how we renovate it to look like Yuezhou?"
"That's great, of course. You've made Yuezhou look really good.
I feel that Yuezhou is no worse than the capital, it's just a little smaller." Yuchi Zhong nodded.
"Is Yuezhou no worse than the capital?" Zhou Yi was incredulous. "Then, Brother Yuchi, I'll have to go with you guys to see it later."
"That's all. Old Taishan, wait until the battle is over here, then follow me back to New City and let my dad take you around. It's much better than Yuezhou." Jiang Hai said, and saw some movement at the East City Gate.
"Hey hey hey, they're out. They're really not stimulated. Hahaha, Qin Wan is working."
