Chapter 591 Ruthless is not necessarily a hero, how can a pity be not a husband
As if they were crazy, the 30,000 Song troops rushed towards Fanyu Mountain in a "wild" manner with a spirit that was beyond the ordinary rapid march. The strong momentum they burst out made Jiao Hong, who was leading the way, dumbfounded.
Is this the true strength of King Song's army?
After trekking in the mountains for more than six or seven days, half of the journey was still in the rain. Now, I can still maintain such a strong fighting spirit -
A big exclamation point flashed in Jiao Hong's mind, and then he couldn't help but utter a heartfelt sigh for King Song's 'city'. His subordinates obviously have such a strong army, but they have kept it hidden for many years. It's really worthy of it.
A royal dragon. With his forbearance, he embarrasses everyone in the world.
Jiao Hong felt ashamed of some of the thoughts in his mind before. King Song was not simple either. Even if the battle was defeated in the end, it was because of King Song's lack of external force, not because of his own incompetence.
And you must know that in the minds of everyone before, the King of Song was simply a mediocre leader. His politics were mediocre, his military was incompetent, and his two hundred thousand soldiers had no deterrent effect compared to the prince's line. In the eyes of everyone, the King of Song and his
His Song Army was a total loser.
Zhu Biao was not surprised by the sudden force of his soldiers. He had anticipated this scene after seeing his morale jump by 29 points.
For ordinary wars, such violent exertion is very bad and irrational. But for Fanyu Mountain, there is no need to worry about it. "Let them go!"
Zhang He wanted to restrain the "passion" of the soldiers. Such a powerful sprint would undoubtedly greatly consume their little physical strength. Zhu Biao stopped him. His army had a sure chance of winning this battle, so he let them go.
Go crazy again.
In half an hour, converted into one hour in later generations, the journey of nearly ten miles had been completed. This was still in the muddy rain, which was really not easy.
It was extremely easy to take over the front camp of Fanyu Mountain. Before Zhu Biao arrived with his troops, Jiao Ming had already cleaned up the front camp and killed more than 20 "stronger" team leaders and Du Bo.
Completely controlled the Qianshan camp.
As for the Houshan Military Camp, they haven't noticed anything amiss until now. The heavy rain has become the best cover for Jiao Ming's actions.
Zhu Biao immediately praised the word "good". Without further ado, he immediately sent his troops to attack the unsuspecting rear mountain military camp. They almost rushed to the camp gate before the sentries guarding the rear camp felt something was wrong.
, but it’s too late.
Without leading officers, how could the three thousand defenseless troops withstand this sudden attack by ten times the enemy? In less than two quarters of an hour, they were completely pushed flatly by the Song army.
More than 500 rebel soldiers were killed, and the remaining 2,000 people were all captured!
Since then, Fanyu Mountain has been settled. Thousands of miles of Qishan Mountain, this natural iron-locked defense line, has exposed a huge irreparable loophole in one of the only two "key points". The entire Dongcheng County has been under Zhu Biao's army.
Under the front.
"Hahaha, General Chen. Being ruthless does not necessarily mean you are a hero. How can you not be a husband if you have a pity for your son?" Zhu Biao patted Chen Lian on the shoulder and picked up a bowl of wine. "Those who abandon their wives and children are the most shameless ones."
Their wives' flesh and blood can be betrayed or abandoned. What else in this world can make them loyal and loyal?
If it were me, I would never believe these people again. Zhu Mou has never been with them! Because I also have a wife, and children will be born, and they are my life. Even if I die, I
I don’t want them to get hurt at all.”
Jiao Ming introduced Chen Lian to Zhu Biao, explained Chen Lian's concerns, and was worried that Zhu Biao would get angry. Because in this world, just like ancient China, military generals who abandon their families and ignore the safety of their families when necessary, Bibi
All.
The otherworldly version of Wu Qi and Liu An don’t need too much.
A value system has been formed in the world, a concept of a ‘ruthless and ruthless man’.
But how could Zhu Biao get angry? Jiao Ming's persistence made him empathize with him. How difficult was it for him to make the decision to leave Beihan? How reluctant was he to let go of his pregnant wife?
Chen Lian is so affectionate and righteous!
Zhu Biao made a promise and said: "Don't worry. Unless we take Dongcheng County and bring your wife safely to you, I, Zhu Biao, will never let you stand up and say a word."
When he was in Hedong, he finally refused, rejecting the temptation of the Tang Dynasty King's millions of taels of silver, and changed his already wavered attention. Even though Yue Hua quickly got the official documents from the court!
Because of what his wife said that night, when Zhu Biao was holding Shan Yuping and about to go to bed, she refused. "Ms. sir... let's go to Sister Liang's place..."
Zhu Biao could clearly see how difficult and sad it was for Shan Yuping to say this, and her eyes were wet, but she still said it. Because according to the practice of wealthy families in the world, when the first wife is pregnant,
Husband and wife cannot sleep together. According to tradition, at this time, in order to show her generosity as a woman, the wife of the wife should find a wife for her man.
The maids and aunts and uncles are all the same.
It's not that Zhu Biao doesn't have other women, although they are still hidden.
Zhu Biao's heart softened in an instant and was full of pity. He forgot all about silver and armor, and the reputation of the Tang Dynasty and Song Dynasty kings in the Central Plains. His wife and children came first, and he swore to Shan Yuping that he would never do anything in the future.
I will never make her angry again, and I will stay with her from now on until the day the child is born.
But when a letter from Cai Jueshen, which was rushed thousands of miles to Hedong for official and personal use, arrived in Zhu Biao's hands. He had to compromise.
The king of the Tang Dynasty made another plan after his plan failed. In other words, this plan was decided by Yue Hua himself, Linji, who was in charge of affairs in the Northern Han Dynasty. He promised the Northern Han Dynasty that as long as Zhu Biao was willing to go south, Zhou Jun would be in Chenzhou this year.
The country's offensive will definitely become more intense, so intense that Hu Di will not be able to spare the strength to attack the Northern Han Dynasty. And he will pay one million taels of silver, 300,000 dans of grain and grass, and enough armor and equipment for 10,000 elite troops.
The purpose of Cai Jueshen's letter is obvious. In addition to himself, the last person whose name was written on the letter was Gao Shouxun, Ma Mao, Yu Ziliang and a large number of senior officials and important officials. They were also Zhu Biao's biggest help in the court.
Therefore, in just a few days, with falcons flying high, horses galloping, and letters exchanged, Zhu Biao had to "give in" and go south. On the days when he left Hedong, his heart was really full of guilt for Shan Yuping.
"Master Yang, Master Yang!" Yanxiang rode all the way to the Dongcheng County prefect's mansion. After three halls, he ignored the etiquette and left the servants of Yang's mansion who were about to report in front of the door and rushed straight to the backyard.
He ran in screaming.
Yang Fu had also just returned from the front hall to the backyard to rest, and had been sitting there for less than half an hour. Now when he heard Yan Xiang's shouting, his voice was full of anxiety, he couldn't help being startled, and he hurriedly stood up to greet him, "Brother Yan, we're out
What's the matter? What makes you so anxious?"
"Something is going wrong, something is going wrong. Xinghe and Li Changjun rebelled, colluded with the King of Song to rebel against the party, and detained General Bao who was going there." Seeing Yang Fu, Yan Xiang seemed to have support in his heart, holding both hands
He leaned on Yang Fu's outstretched arm and gasped for air.
"General Bao was detained? Li Changjun rebelled?" Yang Fu was stunned for a moment, how could this happen? "Li Changjun doesn't want his life?" It's a good thing that he still trusts him so much after coming here all the time.
At midnight yesterday, the Xinghe County chief quickly sent an urgent report to the prefect's mansion, saying that the local gentry in Xinghe County was unstable, and Li Changjun could not control the situation himself, and asked General Bao and Yang Fu to go to 'pacify' the place.
The so-called "appeasement" is to suppress the powerful squires in a town, give them a stick, give them a sweet date, and say a few kind words to calm their hearts.
The main force of the army led by Pei Lun had already set off for Dong'an County. The heavy responsibility of guarding Dongcheng County fell on Bao Kanglai's shoulders. Of course, he would not allow this to happen. After coming to the prefect's mansion to understand the cause and effect of the matter, he immediately asked
Go on a light horse.
There are still one or two thousand county soldiers and local men in Xinghe County. Bao Kanglai means that there is no need to use large forces at all. He only needs to bring his two hundred personal followers and cavalry, combined with the existing armed forces of Xinghe County, it will be enough.
Suppress the entire county.
As the main force marched westwards, as a logistics base, the burden on the governor Yang Fu was not light. He wanted the prime minister to mobilize the entire logistics and strengthen the people's tribes.
In a mere county town, although Li Changjun tried his best to invite Bao Kanglai and Yang Fu came together, after Bao Kanglai and Yang Fuyi discussed it, only Bao Kanglai went. This was enough, and there was no need for Yang Fu to go again.
Now Bao Kanglai has been gone for almost a day, and no news has come back. Yang Fu doesn't feel anything is wrong, because in his heart Li Changjun is an absolutely trustworthy person, and the local power in Xinghe County is average. With Bao
Kang Lai's two hundred Jingrui personal followers, coupled with the power controlled by Li Changjun's men, could easily 'pacify' the entire Xinghe without any problems.
Yang Fu was very concerned about Xinghe, but he didn't expect that the docile sheep turned into a big bad wolf in an instant, and Bao Kanglai fell into it!
"Brother Yan, Li Changjun has always been loyal to the king, do you know why he made an attack?" This point is very important. Yang Fu's consciousness told him that there must be an inside story. Li Changjun must have thought of some way to rely on it. "Could it be that?
Just rely on General Bao?" Not to mention other places, just the 30,000 troops in the county and city, it is easy to defeat and make peace. How dare Li Changjun rebel without any support, Yang Fu secretly said in his heart.
"Li Thief didn't reveal a word. There are also clerks in the county government who are interested in the imperial court. They didn't notice anything wrong before." There was a coldness in Yan Xiang's words, because the more this happened, the more it proved Li Changjun's rebellion.
It has been planned for a long time. Of course there must be a reason for this!
"Send an envoy to hold him accountable immediately." Yang Fu calmed down, temporarily suppressed the worries in his heart, and thought about countermeasures. First of all, he could not give in. He could not tolerate Li Changjun just because Bao Kanglai was in his hands. This attitude must be firm.
But it cannot be 100% rigid, and there is no room for relaxation. A gap must be left, and Li Changjun must not be pressed. Li Changjun must ensure Bao Kanglai's safety. If Bao Kanglai makes a mistake,
Yang Fu himself was in big trouble.
"Then I sent orders to Lanmei Mountain and Shehu Valley. I ordered Yao Fangqiong and Pang Zigong to lead 3,000 troops each. They must arrive at Taoshui Ferry at You hour tonight."
Send troops, no matter how the matter is resolved in the end, Yang Fu decided to send troops immediately to attack Xinghe. At least he must show his own momentum and proper attitude. "I will personally lead 10,000 troops, so there will be 16,000 troops.
Ten times the military strength of Li Thief."
"Okay, that's how it should be." Yan Xiang is the long history of Dongcheng County. He was born as a Jinshi, but has a strong and strong character. He has always had a tough attitude towards rebellion, such as the court's attitude toward the King of Song. Therefore, the decision to send troops to Yang Fu is an important step.
Both hands agree.
…
Outside Wei County.
Bao Kanglai was detained. While everyone in the county was busy preparing for this sudden change, outside Wei County, more than a hundred miles away from them in the north, a team of 26,000 to 7,000 people was rapidly approaching.
The city is approaching.
After taking Fanyu Mountain, Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief, but the army did not stop immediately. In order to maintain the concealment of the troops, his request was not to let any enemy go, and to absolutely avoid leaks of information.
More than 20,000 people went up the mountain and down the valley, and the dragnet-like search lasted for more than an hour, which lasted much longer than the attack on the Houshan military camp. After capturing more than 300 remaining soldiers, the number of people was almost complete.
It's officially over.
Then, the hot broth, the dry tent, and the long-awaited things finally appeared in front of the 30,000 soldiers of the Song Army.
Although the two camps at Fanyu Mountain and Front and Back Mountain are not permanent buildings, they were built with all the considerations in mind, including rain protection and drainage on rainy days. The military tents were also equipped with
There is a bed, so when it rains, you only need to put a layer of thatch on the top of the tent to prevent rainwater from dripping.
However, the military camps around Fanyu Mountain only have a strength of 5,000 people. If you squeeze six times the number of people under the fortress, it will be really crowded. In addition, in order to appease the newly surrendered Jiao Ming tribe, or to give these people
Making a silent promise, Zhu Biao did not drive them out of the military tents, but only reduced them to a certain extent, so the number of military tents was really not enough.
In the end, the Song army inevitably set up tents in the rain, and there were many of them in the warehouses of the front and rear camps. All the more than a thousand sick people in the army were isolated. Of course, their environment was even more comfortable.
Although the morale of the army has dropped, it still remains at 70 points.
At dawn the next day, God finally opened his eyes, and the spring rain that had been pouring down for four days finally stopped. Zhu Biao let his troops rest for the whole morning, and in the afternoon he quickly marched towards Wei County.
Before that, he left Lu Tong's troops and sick soldiers in Fanyu Mountain. The first purpose was to preserve a retreat, and the second was to quickly attack and kill Lu Tong after the main force was exposed and attracted a large number of Prince's troops.
Heading southwest or northwest, whether approaching Lanmei Mountain, Yugu Road or Shehu Valley.
The straight-line distance between Fanyu Mountain and the county seat of Wei County is less than fifty miles, but it takes a full day to walk. Moreover, the ground was muddy and slippery, which delayed a lot of time on the way. By the time the Song army forced its way into the city of Wei County,
, it was already the evening of the second day, and the sky was already dark.
At the North City Gate, Wang Jiuling felt a little restless. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, why hadn't anyone arrived yet? "Is there trouble on the road?" Wang Jiuling asked herself, but he immediately denied the idea.
This time the Song army has tens of thousands of troops and is very powerful. Even if all the county soldiers in Wei County are gathered together, the village soldiers and people are still vulnerable to a fight, let alone the fact that no information has been revealed yet.
"It must be because the road is difficult!" Wang Jiuling couldn't help comforting herself. Ever since she received the letter of 'activation' a few days ago and the letter from Jiao Ming yesterday, Wang Jiuling felt chilled all over and felt in her heart.
I was very nervous. When I met my colleagues today, I always felt that the eyes of others looking at me were full of inexplicable meaning.
"Sima!" A Du Bo rushed into the city gate tower and reported to Wang Jiuling urgently: "There is a troop approaching from outside the city."
Wang Jiuling's heart suddenly stopped, and a feeling of panic that could not be described in words rose from his heart. It was like someone was holding his heart tightly, and the suffocation made him forget that at that moment.
breathe.
"Whose flag is this?" Wang Jiuling's mind went blank, but she said this sentence without any delay.
As soon as the word "Hao" came out of her mouth, Wang Jiuling shook her head violently, and everything returned to its original state. Her mind, body and mind, the huge pressure and panic, as if they had never appeared before, suddenly disappeared without a trace.
Wang Jiuling felt extremely relaxed at this moment, her mind was clear, and her condition couldn't be better.
"What's going on?" The difference between before and after was so big that even Wang Jiuling herself couldn't accept it, and she felt secretly surprised.
But now that a big event is approaching, Wang Jiuling has no time to think about this situation, and is fully devoted to the upcoming big change. This is a major event related to her own wealth and life, but it is much more important than that sudden surprise.
"The sky is dark and I can't tell yet."
"Wait for me to see." Wang Jiuling stood up, covered herself in armor, and took the lead to step out of the city gate tower.
Looking around, he saw not far away, about two or three miles away, a group of soldiers and horses approaching quickly and openly.
Not long after, the soldiers and horses arrived at the city. Under the light of more than ten torches in the front row, Jiao Ming was wearing armor and holding a sword on his horse. Behind him stood a general's flag with the word "Jiao" written in big letters.
"It's General Jiao!" Uncle Nadu was the first to shout. Since Jiao Ming was stationed at Fanyu Mountain, the food, grass and military supplies on the mountain have been supplied by Wei County, and he has escorted food and supplies to and from several times. This view of the North City Gate
Most of the Piao defenders recognized him and knew that he and Wang Jiuling were close friends.
"It's so late, why is he here? And he brings so many troops."
Behind Jiao Ming, there were about a thousand soldiers.
"Hurry up the suspension bridge and open the city gate." Wang Jiuling immediately shouted from the top of the city.
Beside him, Uncle Dub stretched his head to look down after eating. When he heard what he said, his eyes suddenly bulged, and he turned around to look at Wang Jiuling in shock. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, novels are better.
