Chapter 540 Capture Yang Zaixing

Then Wang Chang said: "Commander Yue, aren't you afraid that your subordinates will impeach you?"

Yue Fei glanced at him and said, "You can go ahead and impeach him."

Wang Chang shouted loudly: "I must impeach you! The border commander interferes in internal affairs. This is treason! The princes in the court will not let you go!"

Yue Fei only stopped briefly in Jiangzhou and then headed south quickly.

By July 26, Yue Fei's troops arrived at Linjiang Army.

At this time, Yue Fei received news that Cao Cheng had captured Qingjiang County, the seat of the Linjiang Army.

Cao Cheng's troops divided into three groups to search for money and food from the Linjiang army.

This battle is not difficult. As long as we take back Qingjiang and kill Cao Cheng, the rebels will be scattered.

That afternoon, Yue Fei ordered his people to start casting the ladder.

The Qingjiang County seat is only over three meters high, so it is not difficult to capture it.

At this time, Cao Cheng obviously also knew that the imperial troops were coming, so he summoned his troops to discuss matters.

Cao Cheng said: "There are many reports that the imperial troops are coming!"

His general Zhang Jing said: "Commander Cao, when we came down all the way, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court fled in the face of the wind. Why should we be afraid!"

Cao Cheng said: "The soldiers and horses along this route may be different. The scouts found a lot of horse hoof traces."

Everyone was a little surprised, Zhang Jing said: "Could it be that they are cavalry?"

Cao Cheng said: "There are no cavalry in the south. The cavalry is all in the northern frontier, so the ones coming may be frontier cavalry!"

"I heard that Yue Fei's Shenwu Army has the strongest cavalry today. Last year, Liu Yu's army of 100,000 was defeated in Hebei and collapsed."

The speaker was a young man, tall and strong, with a deep and powerful voice and sharp eyes.

"You mean, it's the Shenwu Army who's coming this time!" Cao Cheng looked a little solemn.

"It is very possible that if the Shenwu Army comes, our army will have little chance of winning."

Zhang Jing smiled disdainfully and said: "Yang Zaixing, don't let other people's ambitions destroy your own prestige!"

Cao Cheng said: "The situation in the north is tense now. It is impossible for the main force of the Shenwu Army to go south at this time. It may be part of them."

Zhang Jing said: "Even if Yue Fei comes, it's nothing more than that. If he dares to come, I will take his head!"

Cao Cheng said: "The imperial troops must have known that we are in Qingjiang County and will attack soon. Yang Zaixing, if you are asked to defend, what are your chances of winning?"

When Yang Zaixing was about to speak, Zhang Jing immediately interrupted: "Shuai Cao, didn't you hear what he said just now? We have little chance of winning."

Yang Zaixing said: "Commander Cao, we should go south immediately and enter Lingnan. The imperial court's control over Lingnan is slightly weak. We are guarding Shaoguan in Lingnan. The military in the north of the imperial court is tense. It is impossible to send elites south to Lingnan. That is where we should go."

"Lingnan is a place where birds don't shit!" Zhang Jing took over the words, "Go there by yourself!"

"Cao Shuai..."

Cao Cheng said: "Zhang Jing, if I ask you to defend the city, what are your chances of winning?"

Zhang Jing stood up and said calmly: "I promise to repel those dog officers and soldiers of the imperial court and kill their general. If Yue Fei himself comes, we will kill him together!"

"Okay! Just you will defend the city!"

On July 127th, Yue Fei's three troops gathered outside Qingjiang County and approached Qingjiang.

He sent people to persuade him to surrender.

Zhang Jing saw the flag of the Shenwu Army at the top of the city and laughed loudly: "It is indeed the Shenwu Army. I wonder if Yue Fei is coming?"

Zhang Xian shouted loudly: "Since we know that Commander Yue's troops are coming, why not open the city and surrender!"

Zhang Jing laughed wildly: "If you have the ability to attack the city, I will make it impossible for you to come back today!"

Zhang Xian said: "Commander Yue, these bandits seem quite confident. In this case, let's attack the city directly!"

Yue Fei checked his surroundings and found that the surrounding arteries had naturally been fortified.

"Siege the city!"

Teams of crossbowmen immediately lined up at the front, neatly.

Dutou shouted loudly: "Fire the arrow!"

Suddenly, a dense rain of arrows rose into the sky and flew towards the city.

A dozen people were shot to death on the spot, and the rest were either lying on the ground or hiding behind the tower.

The crossbow arrows even flew over the top of the city, flew into the city, and were nailed to the wooden stakes.

A dozen rebels were also shot dead on the spot in the city.

The effect of this crossbow was beyond the expectations of all the rebels. Zhang Jing even rolled on the ground and shouted: "Block them all! Hurry! Block them all!"

After several waves of arrows were suppressed, the crossbowmen also stopped, the horns of the Shenwu Army sounded, and the forward battalion began to charge with ladders.

Dozens of ladders were set up on the city wall, which was only three meters long, and the Shenwu Army began to climb up quickly.

The first one to climb up was Zhang Fan, the leader of the Third Capital of the First Battalion. He waved the knife in his hand and stabbed the rebel in front through the heart. He shouted, and the rest followed one after another and quickly occupied the city.

.

Only a moment later, Cao Chengcheng received the news that the city had fallen.

"What!" Cao Cheng was shocked, "Zhang Jing mistaken me!"

He took his men and horses and immediately left through the south city gate.

"Yang Zaixing, I will listen to you now and go south to Lingnan!"

Cao Cheng and his soldiers had only gone two miles out of the city when they were intercepted by a group of Shenwu troops.

Yang Zaixing shouted loudly: "Commander Cao, you go first, and you will be the last to leave!"

Yang Zaixing carried a long spear, rode on a horse, and rushed forward with his men.

Cao Cheng fled quickly.

The person who intercepted Cao Cheng on this road was Han Shunfu, the commander of the third battalion. This man was brave and good at fighting. He was promoted from an ordinary soldier to the commander in just two years.

I saw Han Shunfu holding a long spear and leading a group of people to kill him.

After only a few rounds, all of Yang Zaixing's men fled.

However, Yang Zaixing was still fighting with a gun.

Not only that, more than a dozen Shenwu Army soldiers were picked off their horses by him.

He even stabbed Han Shunfu in the shoulder with a shot. If it weren't for the armor protecting him, Han Shunfu's shoulder would have been pierced.

Even so, Han Shunfu was also shaken by a huge force and fell off his horse.

Yang Zaixing was unrivaled in the Shenwu Army!

You know, the Shenwu Army is the elite among the elite!

However, no matter how brave Yang Zaixing was, he was the only one left and was captured after fighting hard for half an hour.

At this time, the rebels in Qingjiang County had dispersed.

In the evening, Yang Zaixing was escorted to Yue Fei.

"Commander Yue, this is the man who wounded Han Shunfu!" Zhang Xian said, this man is Cao Cheng's confidant, he must know Cao Cheng's whereabouts!"

Yang Zaixing was stunned for a moment and said: "Shuai Yue? Could it be that your Excellency is..."

"Be honest, this is Hebei West Road Manager Yue Shuai!"

"I've heard about Commander Yue's fame for a long time, and now I'm lucky enough to meet him today!"

Zhang Xian said: "Hey, I said this guy is quite good at getting close, but you are a rebel! Now we ask questions, you answer!"

Yue Fei took the call: "What's your name?"

"My name is Yang Zaixing!"
