Chapter 396: Sang Guoqiao Mistaken Me

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Hebei, Zhenzhou, Li Qing, the general of the Chengde Army, opened the south gate of Zhenzhou City at the beginning of the Mao period in accordance with the agreement with Du Chongwei.

Wearing black armor, the Imperial Guards of the Later Jin Dynasty, who had been waiting for a long time, poured into Zhenzhou City like a tide.

After receiving the news, An Chongrong, the military governor of the Chengde Army, wanted to lead his bodyguards to resist, but unfortunately Zhenzhou was besieged for longer than Xiazhou, and the troops in the city were disorganized and had long lost their fighting spirit.

An Chongrong led more than ten people to block the gate of the office, and after personally killing five tooth soldiers of the Stick Saint Army.

This envoy of the Chengde Army, who was determined to resist the annexation of Khitan but had low ambitions and low abilities, left behind the heroic words of "The emperor, he who has strong soldiers and horses will do it!" was hacked to death by the rebel army at the gate of the Chengde Army's office.

Three hours after the Imperial Guards of the Later Jin Dynasty took control of Zhenzhou, the cries and shouts of killing began again.

Du Chongwei was not Zhang Zhao. This butcher nicknamed Wenhou showed no mercy and immediately ordered a bloodbath in Zhenzhou.

Within a few days, he cut off An Chongrong's head and sent it to Shi Jingtang, the capital of Ye, on a fast horse.

There were more than 30,000 people in Zhenzhou, and almost no one was spared. Even the Chengde army general Li Qing who opened the gate had his whole family killed.

Although An Chongrong was flapping by Zhang Zhao's butterfly wings, he raised troops more than a year in advance.

However, the inertia of history prevented him from changing his fate, and he was still defeated and died.

However, the situation in Xiangzhou, where the Jiedu envoy of Shannan East Road is located in the south, has changed again.

After all, An Congjin and his son had been operating in Xiangzhou for many years. Although they were surrounded and attacked by Gao Xingzhou, Jiao Jixun, and An Shenhui, they relied on the thick walls of Xiangzhou City and the advantage of the navy to keep the later Jin army at a loss.

.

However, after more than five months of siege, Shi Jingtang knew that An Chongrong would definitely be defeated if he was besieged, so he finally felt relieved and sent an envoy to order Jingnan and Ma Chu to also send troops to besiege.

At the end of March, King Gao of Jingnan sent Li Duan, the commander of the capital, and led thousands of naval troops up the Han River to the south of Xiangzhou.

King Ma Xifan of Chu also sent Zhang Shaodi, the envoy of Tiancedu Army, and led more than a hundred warships into the Han River to participate in the siege.

As soon as these two parties arrived, An Congjin's navy was immediately suppressed, and Xiangzhou City was in danger.

But at this time, Li Quanjin, the governor of Anyuan in the later Jin Dynasty, was greedy and violent. He was afraid of being punished by Shi Jingtang, so he simply surrendered to the Southern Tang Dynasty in Anzhou, which is now Anlu, Hubei.

One wave was not settled, but another wave arose again, so Shi Jingtang had no choice but to let Ma Quanjie, the envoy of Henghai Jiedu, lead his army southward.

Then more than 2,000 An Shenhui troops who were besieging Xiangzhou were transferred to Anzhou to prevent Li Quanjin's defection.

The Southern Tang Dynasty sent Ezhou garrison envoy Li Chengyu and deputy envoy Duan Chugong to lead 8,000 troops to assist Li Quanjin.

Fortunately, the combat effectiveness of the Southern Tang army is beyond words, and Li Chengyu is even more of a heavyweight.

After he arrived in Anzhou, instead of arranging defense against the Later Jin army, he first occupied the wives and concubines of Li Quanjin of the Southern Tang Dynasty and began to enjoy themselves.

The soldiers of the Southern Tang Dynasty also followed suit and plundered the people of Anzhou to enrich their pockets.

As a result, before the Ma Quan Festival arrived, An Shenhui only used more than 2,000 tooth soldiers from his headquarters to directly defeat more than 8,000 people in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

The Southern Tang army abandoned the city and fled, but was overtaken in Huanghua Valley in the south of the city. Deputy envoy Duan Chugong was killed directly, while Li Chengyu led more than 3,000 defeated troops and fled in confusion again.

However, An Shenhui, who had been depressed for several months under Xiangzhou City, was not willing to let go. He led his troops in pursuit and finally caught up with the Southern Tang Army again at Yunmengze.

As soon as the two sides fought, the frightened Southern Tang army collapsed. Li Chengyu and more than a thousand Southern Tang soldiers were killed, and more than a thousand were captured.

At this time, Li Sheng, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was building a school in Bailudong, Lushan, named Lushan Guoxue, which later became the predecessor of Bailudong Academy.

After Li Sheng received the news that Li Chengyu and Duan Chugong were both killed in battle, he quickly sent general Zhang Jianchong to guard Yunmeng Bridge, and he completely gave up the idea of ​​competing with the later Jin Dynasty for supremacy.

Li Chengyu and Duan Chugong were defeated so quickly that they did not cause much trouble to the later Jin Dynasty.

However, Xiangzhou, which was originally surrounded, took the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief. An Congjin defeated the naval forces of Jingnan and Ma Chu one after another. It seemed that he would not be able to break the city for at least half a year.

But the good news that the Southern Tang Dynasty was easily repelled did not make Shi Jingtang happy for long, because the envoy from his Khitan father arrived.

The person who came was Yelu Chacao, a royal relative of the Yelu family. He pointed at Shi Jingtang's nose and cursed loudly.

The dizzy Shi Jingtang listened for a long time before he figured out that the envoy he sent to Yunzhou was intercepted and killed by the Sanggan River.

The emperor here thought that Yeluyeye had captured Yunzhou long ago, but it turned out that he couldn't win it after so long, and he still had to rely on his imperial edict.

Feeling secretly happy for a while, Shi Jingtang was about to make a few sarcastic remarks about Yelu Chage, but Yelu Chage's next words made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Zhang Zhao, the ambassador of Longyou Jiedu in Hexi Province and King of Han, rode with five thousand horses by the Hun River to defeat the Khitans.

Shi Jingtang was not afraid that Zhang Zhao would offend the Khitans, but was surprised by Zhang Zhao's strength. Why did it expand so fast? That was three thousand Pishi troops!

Zhang Zhao actually had the strength to defeat the Khitan's three thousand Pishi army while besieging Xiazhou, which is enough to prove that he must have defeated the Li family in order to defeat the enemy.

Shi Jingtang was originally planning to finish fighting An Chongrong and then get involved in the conflict between the Guiyi Army and the Dingnan Army. Whoever loses, he will help, and the two sides will bleed a lot. But as a result, something is wrong!

Shi Jingtang, who was upset, quickly coaxed Yelucha out with respectful words.

He also promised to send another envoy immediately, asking Du Zhongwei of Zhenzhou to select the Imperial Guards to escort him from Zhenzhou to Youzhou, and then deliver the edict to Yunzhou, so as to ensure that he would not be intercepted secretly.

When Yelucha went out shouting and shouting, Shi Jingtang's face immediately darkened.

This was the consequence of his father's service to the Khitan. Even a member of the Yelu family dared to show off to him, the emperor of the Central Plains.

However, Shi Jingtang had no other solution. Just as Sang Weihan said, he only had one option: continue to hold the Khitan's thigh.

Because if he doesn't hug him, others will hug him. As for Shi Jingtang, who is against all sides, once others get the support of the Khitan people, he will be dead.

Just as he was about to ask the chamberlain around him to draw up an imperial edict and order Wu Luan, the judge of the Datong Army, to give way to Yunzhou City, there was another sound of wailing outside the door.

Shi Jingtang was so annoyed that he ordered someone to open the palace door. He saw Li Yizhong, the governor of Suizhou, who had been sent to ask for help by Li Yiyin, the governor of the Conquering Army a few months ago, kneeling outside the door, crying with snot and tears.

"Your Majesty! On February 18th, the city of Xiazhou was defeated. I am sure that the military commander Li Gong and Yi Yinyi will die in battle. The Tibetan bandits in Hexi have captured the four prefectures of Yinxia, ​​Yousui.

It is said that Tuoba Yanchao, the leader of Lingzhou Party Xiang Tuoba Tribe, personally went to Xiazhou to pay homage to the Tibetan bandits.

Please send troops quickly, otherwise the Tibetan bandits will even annex the Lingwu Army."

Shi Jingtang's body shook a few times, as if he was about to fall. Suddenly, the emperor shook violently again. He thought of Pei Yuan, who seemed to have been sent to Lingzhou by him.

this....!

Originally it was to prevent the Khitans from taking Lingwu, but now it's all at Zhang Zhao's advantage. Then Pei Yuan was sent to Zhongyuan by Zhang Zhao!

This is just great!

Hexi Zhang Zhaoquan includes Hexi, Longyou, Shuofang and part of the Guannai Road.

During Tianbao's ten festivals, he had already taken control of the three major military districts of Hexi, Longyou and Shuofang.

The folk customs here are fierce, there are many fierce generals in Guanxi, and there are also great horses in Liangzhou. Shuofang's cavalry is unparalleled in the world. Shi Jingtang can still control them.

The emperor looked up to the sky and screamed, a mouthful of blood spurting out.

"Sang Guoqiao made a mistake for me!"
