Chapter 421: Soldiers Fa Jianzhou
In front of the Laoyeling Pass, Xiahou Lingyu picked up the Honghuang Sword discarded by Mr. Ye, and applied gold wound medicine to Tang Jiusheng. Tang Jiusheng also took a few healing medicines internally. The wounds on Tang Jiusheng's shoulder and left chest were not fatal, and soon
The bleeding stopped, and with Tang Jiu Sheng's physical condition, he was expected to be completely healed in no more than ten days.
Ning Chenggang led more than 500 men to surrender to the Wei King Tang Jiu Sheng. Tang Jiu Sheng and his men dug a pit at the foot of Laoye Mountain with beautiful mountains and green waters, and buried the bodies of more than 100 Paoze who died in the battle. Ning Chenggang and more than 500 men under his command
The elite soldiers saw with their own eyes that Tang Jiu Sheng caused thunder from the sky and seriously injured Mr. Ye. They were all in awe of Tang Jiu Sheng. In the eyes of Ning Chenggang and others, Tang Jiu Sheng was like a god descending to earth.
Although Tang Jiusheng suffered some hardships, he successfully surrendered these more than 500 elite soldiers, especially those sunset ballistae and heavy-arm divine ballistae. These ballistae will definitely shine in offensive and defensive battles in the future. Tang Jiusheng thought of just now
The battle with Mr. Ye still left him frightened. As long as Mr. Ye could last a moment longer, it would definitely be Tang Jiu Sheng who died. Tang Jiu Sheng sighed, it was time, luck and fate.
Cheng Zifei led ten cavalrymen straight to Jianzhou City to explore the way first. Fatty and Ning Chenggang were in front, Tang Jiusheng, Xiahou Lingyu and Linghuyu from Xiaowei were behind, bringing more than 500 elite soldiers.
Arrive at Laoye Village ten miles away. Although Laoye Village is a temporary village, it is beginning to take shape. There are horses and other objects at the entrance of the village, and the bamboo huts are also very good. It is surrounded by beautiful mountains and green water, and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It can be seen that it was still a waste of time at the beginning.
Thoughtful.
The group of people repaired in Laoye Village for two days. Fatty's injury was healed, and Tang Jiusheng's sword injury was mostly healed.
Tang Jiusheng took the surrendered general Ning Chenggang with him and inquired in detail about the situation of Niu Mandi and the Jiannan Road Economic Envoy Yamen in order to have a clear idea. Tang Jiusheng had already made up his mind to kill Niu Man after getting rid of Ye Tengjiao.
.Niu Mandi is so courageous that he dares to instruct his elite soldiers to attack the people of Prince Wei's Mansion. How can such a general be retained?
At noon that day, Fatty saw that he and Xiahou Lingyu were the only ones around, and he quickly and secretly advised Tang Jiusheng, "Old Tang, you are too courageous! Ning Cheng just surrendered, and you are not familiar with him, so you dare to put him
Keep it with you, in case he still misses his master and assassinates you again when no one is prepared, wouldn't it be a big mistake?"
Xiahou Lingyu also agreed with this, "Brother Tang, I think what the fat guy said makes sense. People are separated from each other and don't know what to do. Especially since you are a prince with a heavy responsibility, it is good to be careful!"
Unexpectedly, Tang Jiusheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Ning Chenggang used to be under Niu Mandi, but he was just a low-level general. Today he came to me. I treated him with courtesy and treated him as a national scholar! He exchanged his heart for his heart. How could he?
Will you assassinate me? We are the new Prince of Wei. When it is time to hire people, we should be eclectic! I think Ning Chenggang is a man. He has a way of commanding the army. He is proficient in bow and horse and has outstanding martial arts. I am willing to trust him and use him seriously. You guys
No need to persuade!"
Fatty and Xiahou Lingyu were very unhappy after hearing this, but there was nothing they could do to defeat Tang Jiusheng. Fatty could only secretly be on guard, and discussed with Xiahou Lingyu in private. The two of them agreed not to leave Tang Jiusheng as much as possible, and at least to ensure that
Tang Jiusheng had a close confidant by his side.
The two were discussing, when an eagle chirped above their heads, and they looked up to see the sparrow eagle Xiaoqing overhead.
The fat man circled up, the fat man was overjoyed, stretched out his arm, Xiao Qing landed on the fat man's shoulder, the fat man took out the thin bamboo tube of the letter from Xiao Qing's feet, entered the room and handed the letter to Tang Jiusheng. After reading the letter, Tang Jiusheng looked happy.
He patted the fat man on the shoulder and said, "Fat man, that's a good thing. Everything is ready!"
Tang Jiusheng immediately ordered people to prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and called a dozen soldiers who could write to come in and write hundreds of letters to persuade them to surrender, seal them and keep them for use.
On the morning of the third day, Tang Jiusheng took Fatty, Ning Chenggang, Xiahou Lingyu, Linghuyu and others with more than 500 elite soldiers to abandon Laoye Village and went straight to Jianzhou City. On the way, Ning Chenggang quietly asked Tang Jiusheng, "
Your Majesty, we are marching to Jianzhou in such a mighty manner. The defenders in the city will definitely close the city gate when they see it. There are only more than 500 of us. The walls of Jianzhou are tall and well-equipped. We have only a few people.
There is absolutely no way we can defeat Jianzhou!"
Tang Jiusheng smiled and said: "General Ning, don't worry, I have a clever plan! We are not here to attack the city, we are here to scare people!"
Ning Chenggang was a little confused, but seeing the determined expression on Tang Jiusheng's face, he didn't ask any more questions. Tang Jiusheng's god-like performance at the Laoye Ling Pass a few days ago had already convinced Ning Chenggang and his subordinates. Fatty and Xia Houling
When Yu advised Tang Jiu Sheng to be on guard against Ning Chenggang, Ning Chenggang happened to be passing by and overheard Tang Jiu Sheng's answer. Ning Chenggang was extremely grateful and vowed to be loyal to the king of Wei, Tang Jiu Sheng, in order to repay his kindness.
In the afternoon of that day, Tang Jiusheng led this team of more than 500 people to the east gate of Jianzhou City. The garrison on the city saw an army of several hundred people coming from a distance. Not knowing why, they quickly called the captain of the city gate.
, the armor-clad City Gate Captain saw this scene and was so frightened that he quickly had someone pull up the suspension bridge.
Tang Jiusheng took Fatty, Xiahou Lingyu, Linghu Yu, and Ning Cheng to the city gate thirty feet away when Fu Ercong, the captain of the city gate, asked loudly from the tower: "Hey, where did you come from?
Do you have any documents from the Ministry of War?”
Tang Jiusheng patted the fat man on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Fat man, now it's your turn to appear. Remember, you have to be harsh when you speak, and show the momentum of our royal palace!"
The fat man had a wretched smile on his face, "This is nothing!" The fat man stepped forward on his horse, raised his head and replied to the captain on the city: "Hey, boy guarding the gate, we are the army of Prince Wei's Palace, and we are following the decree of Prince Wei.
If we want to enter the city to capture the traitor Ye Tengjiao, please open the city gate as soon as possible to avoid being implicated!"
Fu Ercong, the captain of the city gate, was surprised. He was a direct descendant of Ye Tengjiao, so he knew that Ning Chenggang led his men to intercept and kill the officials of Prince Wei's palace on the road. He originally thought that Ning Chenggang had just returned from the victory. How could he have expected that he would come here?
It's the army of Prince Wei's Mansion! Fortunately, this army is small in number, only four or five hundred people, so it's not enough to cause trouble! Thinking of this, Fu Ercong asked: "Hey, fat man, you said you came from Prince Wei's Mansion, what's the point?
Can the evidence prove it?”
The fat man took out a piece of yellow paper with a horizontal axis from his arms, held it and shouted loudly: "King Wei has this intention! It has been found out that Ye Tengjiao, the governor of Jianzhou County, abused his power, robbed women of the people, and took human lives lightly. His intention
In order to rebel, Lieutenant Jiang Zhenyu and others of Prince Wei's Mansion captured Jianzhou County Governor Ye Tengjiao and brought them to justice to rectify the national law!" In fact, the fat man was holding a piece of yellow paper in his hand, with nothing written on it.
How could Fu Ercong, who was standing on the tower, know whether it was true or false? He was so scared that he peed his pants.
, said loudly: "Commander, my humble job is just to guard the city gate. I have to ask for instructions to go up to the peak. Please wait a moment!" After saying that, he ran down the tower and took his horse from the hands of the principal.
He took the reins, slapped the horse and ran towards the county governor's office.
When he arrived at the county guard's yamen, Fu Ercong rushed in in a panic. Fortunately, the soldiers standing guard at the yamen gate all knew him. Seeing that he was so flustered, he must have something urgent to report to the county guard, so they did not stop him. Fu Ercong ran away.
While asking where the county guard was, he was told that Mr. Ye was in the third hall. Fu Ercong rushed to the third hall and saw Ye Tengjiao drinking tea and chatting and laughing with Liu Canjun, the governor of the Yamen.
Fu Ercong saw Ye Tengjiao in casual clothes and hurriedly shouted: "Sir! Something bad has happened!"
Ye Tengjiao turned around and saw that it was Fu Ercong. He raised his triangular eyes, his face sank, and he said displeased: "Why are you panicking? Didn't you see a guest here? What could have scared you like this?"
Fu Ercong said in a panic: "My lord, it's bad! Hundreds of people came from outside the east gate. They were very powerful. I hurriedly asked someone to pull up the suspension bridge. When I asked, they said they were from Prince Wei's Mansion. They were here.
I want to arrest you, my lord! You are accused of abusing your power, taking human life lightly, robbing civilian girls, and intending to rebel!"
Ye Tengjiao was startled and stood up from the chair. His sleeves turned over the celadon tea bowl on the table. The celadon tea bowl fell to the ground with a bang and shattered into pieces. Ye Tengjiao didn't care about this and stepped forward to grab it.
He grabbed Fu Ercong's collar and said, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again!"
Fu Ercong repeated what he had just said. Ye Tengjiao was so shocked that his three souls and seven souls came out of his body. Oh my God, how could this happen? Ye Tengjiao let go of his hand, turned around and asked Liu Canjun, the manager of the Yamen, tremblingly, "Old man
Liu, what's going on? Didn't you say that my cousin, ah, the Minister of Economic Affairs had sent troops to intercept and kill the officials of Prince Wei's Mansion a few days ago? What's going on with this army?"
Liu Shenjun said doubtfully: "That's right! I led the troops at the same time as General Ning Chenggang and Captain Zhang Shuihuan. General Ning also brought twelve ballistas in case there are experts in defending the palace. Those six to seven hundred elite soldiers can
They are all the elite soldiers of our strategic envoy's office, the elite of the elite, even if they can fight against two or three first-level masters!"
The three people were talking, and another government official ran in from outside, "Report to the Sheriff, there are hundreds of letters shot in with arrows from around the city gate, saying that Prince Wei's palace sent troops to arrest you, the Sheriff, and asked the officers and soldiers to open it."
The city gate surrenders! If anyone captures Ye Tengjiao alive and sends him to the official, he will be rewarded with five hundred taels of silver!"
Ye Tengjiao's face turned earthy. He returned to the chair and sat down. He was dumbfounded, his hands and feet were cold, and he didn't know what to do. After staying for a long time, he stood up, took Liu Canjun's hand, and asked in a tearful voice: "Old Liu, it's over, it's over.
, King Wei wants to arrest me, what should I do? What should I do?"
Liu Canjun gritted his teeth and ordered: "There is still something to be done! There are thousands of elite soldiers in Jianzhou City. As long as the four gates are guarded, hundreds of people cannot come to the palace of Wei. What can you do to me? Hurry up and give me advice."
I sent the master to fly pigeons to pass the message. I guess we may have to start an uprising in advance! If there is an uprising, we will rush out of the city and chop up all the people in Prince Wei's Mansion to sacrifice the flag! But I don't know Lao Ning and the others.
Chapter completed!
