Chapter 471 Pei Daring

The next day, Pei Jian ordered five hundred united soldiers, fought against the name of bandit suppression, and set off from the Qingzhou Army camp and headed north.

They left Qingzhou from Qiancheng County, north of Qingzhou, and came to Dizhou.

Originally, a team of more than 500 people was easily discovered by the local government and difficult to hide. However, because Dizhou bordered the Jiuzhou of Fanyang, the governor of Dizhou fled Dizhou after Fanyang rose up. In addition, the united troops of Dizhou were not large, so the local government basically did not respond. Pei Jian led 500 people across Dizhou and came to Cangzhou.

After arriving in Cangzhou, Pei Jian became much more careful in his actions.

After all, this is one of the base camps of Fan Yang Army. Although the main force of Fan Yang Army has long left Fan Yang Army, it is not guaranteed that there will be residual Fan Yang Army behind. The purpose of their trip is to make trouble, rather than to collide head-on with Fan Yang Army.

After finding a local person in Cangzhou to lead the way, Pei Jian and others finally arrived at the southernmost county town of Cangzhou on the third day of their departure, which is Leling County, the closest to Qingzhou.

When Leling was twenty miles away, Pei Jian stopped and ordered his five hundred soldiers to hide, eat dry food and drink enough water to cultivate their spirits.

In the evening, the black-faced general gave the order, and three hundred people from five hundred people came out. They all left their horses in place, followed Pei Jian, and rushed towards Leling County.

The city walls of Leling County are quite low.

In fact, the city walls of this era are not very high. Even a big city like Luoyang and Chang'an, with a city wall of only a dozen meters high. In the first-class Yuezhou City, the city walls can reach five or six meters, which is amazing.

Cangzhou is not a wealthy place. In addition, although it is one of the Jiuzhous of Fanyang, it is still a distance from the border and is not a border city. Therefore, except for the main city, the walls of other county towns in Cangzhou are not high.

Not only Cangzhou, but also Lin Zhao's Qingzhou. When Lin Zhao arrived in Qingzhou, the walls of the four counties of Qingzhou were not high. Even Yidu County, which is the prefecture city, had a wall of only three or four meters high.

It is worth mentioning that after Lin Zhao spent money on money, the city walls have been raised a lot now, approaching the level of the "second-tier city" in the Great Zhou Dynasty like Yuezhou City.

Small counties like Leling have less than three meters high in the city walls and some broken places can even be climbed up alone.

Pei Jian hadn't led his troops to fight for decades. Seeing that the city wall was near, the big general couldn't help but feel excited and immediately waved his hand.

"In groups of two, climb over from the low part of the city wall, listen to my whistle and gather straight at Leling County Government!"

More than 300 people walked in the night.

What's strange is that no one noticed them until they approached the Leling City Wall only ten meters away.

Pei Jian waved his hand violently. The Qingzhou army, who had been trained by him for more than two months, immediately formed two to three people in a group and crossed the city wall of Leling in groups of three.

After about thirty or forty people flipped over, soldiers at Leling City Gate discovered something wrong and shouted loudly: "Who is it!"

But at this time, it was too late.

Almost everyone was equipped with crossbows. This was an equipment that the imperial guards could not be equipped with. After someone made a sound at the city gate, seven or eight crossbow arrows flew over. With the sound of "aggressive" continuous crossbow sounds, less than twenty people guarding the city at the gate of Leling City were solved in almost a moment.

Then, the people who entered Leling opened the city gate. Pei Jian, wearing iron armor, walked into Leling County with his hands on his back. While ordering his subordinates to rush straight to the county government, he looked at the corpse lying on the ground lying at the city gate with a strange expression.

He murmured in a low voice.

"Damn...this is a bit simpler."

"It's easier than suppressing bandits..."

In Pei Jian's opinion, even if the main force of Fan Yang's army is no longer in his base camp, there should be someone guarding the place like Cangzhou. I never thought that he would enter Leling County without any effort.

After entering the city, it will be easier.

Two or three hundred Qingzhou soldiers broke into the Leling County Government like wolves and tigers, and pulled the county master and the wife of the county master who were still sleeping out of the bed.

The governors of various places have the power to appoint personnel. Within the scope of their vassal states, whether they are the governors or the county magistrates, they are appointed by the governors, which means that the county magistrate of Leling County is a real rebel.

After Pei Jian asked the location of Leling Warehouse, he was about to kill the guy with one knife, but he suddenly remembered something and did not use the knife to kill someone. Instead, someone tied him up and threw it aside.

The battle went on...very quickly.

They entered the city in the evening and occupied Leling County in just one hour.

Then Pei Jian began to collect the Leling County Government Treasury and the county magistrate's private property. At about dawn, he packed two large boxes of what he should have and prepared to transport it back to Qingzhou.

Originally, according to the plan, he should not stay after the county town was built, but quickly went to the next county town or returned to Qingzhou to watch the situation. However, taking down Leling easily made Pei Jian have another bold idea in his mind.

He stayed in Leling and closed the city gate. While he asked someone to send trophy to Qingzhou, he also wrote a letter to Lin Zhao, asking his subordinates to send them back to Qingzhou quickly.

The delivery speed of the two boxes of property is naturally not fast, but it is very easy to deliver the letter quickly. The sender set off in the morning and at night, he had already delivered the letter to Qingzhou City and Lin Zhao.

At this time, Governor Lin was discussing with Zheng Ya about purchasing another batch of grain in the governor's mansion. After receiving the letter from Cangzhou, Lin Zhao immediately unfolded it, but only once looked at it, Governor Lin widened his eyes.

Seeing Lin Zhao's expression of shock, Zheng Daguan was also interested. He reached out and threw a piece of charcoal into the torch, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Is Lin Sanlang who is calm in the face of being shocked? "

Lin Zhao then smiled bitterly, put the letter in front of Zheng Ya, and whispered: "To be honest, brother, I sent a team of troops to join forces three days ago to Cangzhou... well... I want to fight Qiufeng."

"Cangzhou? Fighting the autumn wind?"

Zheng Ya frowned while picking up the letter: "Isn't that Kang Dongping's territory? You sent someone to fight Qiufeng?"

He spoke while unfolding his letter.

Pei Jian has a straightforward personality, so there is not much twists and turns in his mind, but straightforward and simple.

He first explained the situation in Leling in the letter, and then said that he had sent his property back to Qingzhou.

However, apart from these things, General Pei expressed his views at the end of the letter.

"Based on the current situation of Leling, my subordinates believe that Fanyang Jiuzhou...at least there are few Fanyang troops in Cangzhou. My subordinates believe that our Qingzhou army will not only not have to withdraw from Cangzhou, but can even easily capture the entire territory of Cangzhou."

"If you are braver, we can... look north at Youzhou!"

"Looking north at Youzhou..."

Zheng Ya put down the letter in his hand, and the expression on his face became very exciting.

"Youzhou is where the governor of Kang Dongping..."

He looked at his cousin and murmured: "You..."

"I'm too brave."
