Chapter 4 Butian (Part 2) Luo Yi, who has always felt that the Boling Army was blocking his way forward, might be eager to see Li Xu being torn to pieces by wolf cavalry outside the Great Wall. Liu Wuzhou is the Dingyang Khan of the Turks. If he could not accompany the Turks
Going south has already given Li Xu a lot of face, and expecting him to work with the Boling Army to resist foreign humiliation is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. As for Li Yuan, it is said that he had an alliance with the Turks before going south, and they share the benefits. At the moment, he is busy besieging the capital, and it is impossible to clone him.
Looking back and forth to the north, Li Xu was surprised to find that those who might fight against the Turkic Wolf Cavalry with him were actually the bandits Dou Jiande and Gao Kaidao. Although these two guys had been looting everywhere for many years, they were actually taking advantage of everything.
Taking up the land as their own home to build some recovery strategies that have been proven effective in the six counties of Boling. Dou and Gao almost copied them intact. According to the reports of the Boling Army spies sent to Pingyuan County, they were once attacked by soldiers.
Jiangling, Husu and other places that were burned to the ground by fire have now slowly recovered due to the efforts of Dou Jiande and Gao Kaidao. If there is more than two years of recovery time, it is difficult to say that there will not be a second Bo under Dou Jiande's rule.
Mausoleum
Only a place built by oneself will be cherished by oneself. Dou Jiande and Gao Kaidao are both natives of Hebei Green Forest Heroes. They have no old disciples and no noble blood. They cannot be like Li Mi who can change places to make a comeback after losing his old nest. So just in case
After hearing the news of the Turkic invasion, even if Dou and Gao would not directly send troops to help Boling, at least they would not add insult to injury. Unfortunately, Dou Jiande's rebels were outnumbered and lacked combat effectiveness. Even if they went to the battlefield at the critical moment, they might not be able to make much difference.
effect
Looking at the world, Li Xu felt that in addition to the Boling Army, the only people who could compete with the Turkic Wolf Cavalry were the Hu Ben Iron Cavalry under Luo Yi and the Hedong Flying Tiger Army under Li Shimin. If the requirements were lowered, the Qi County elite and
He could no longer count on the Wagang inner camp to compete head-on with the Turkic wolf cavalry. As for the Qijun elite and the Wagang inner camp, first, Li Mi would not let them go north. Second, even if the Wagang army was willing to come,
If you go to the country in crisis, it is also a distant water. In the end, it will be difficult to satisfy the near thirst.
Thinking of the Wagang Army, Xu Zi suddenly thought of Xu Dayan. If this scheming old friend could come to help, he might have some hope of turning things around. But what an unrealistic delusion this is, Xu Dayan.
Big Eye is now the backbone of the Wagang Army. How could Li Mi tear down the beams of his house and give them to others...
After thinking about it, Li Xu couldn't find a proper countermeasure. With the idea of risking everything, he shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "What is the second bad news? Just tell me. Anyway, one basket can be carried, and two baskets can be carried."
It’s also a choice!”
"The second news is a little far away from us! It's hard to say whether it's good or bad!" Zhao Ziming also responded with a wry smile, "Shuo Zuo sent an urgent report overnight. Rumors are that there is internal strife in the Wagang Army and that Li Mi bloodbathed the inner camp!"
"What?" Suddenly, Li Xu felt his heart shrinking tightly, and blood almost spurted out from his throat. No matter how he fought with Xu Dayan on the battlefield, over the years, he had never forgotten the two brothers.
In addition to friendship, there are also the domineering Zhai Rang, Cheng Yaojin who takes the overall situation into consideration, and the reckless but upright Shan Xiongxin. To be honest, the recklessness of the Wagang inner camp gave him a better impression than the celebrities and veteran generals under Li Mi's command.
At least the former is a respectable opponent, while the latter is a group of cowards with high ambitions and low ambitions. They are allowed to play some lip service and conspiracies, but they can barely do it. When they are really used for great purposes, they fail to achieve anything.
More than enough bad things
"Xu Maogong is said to have only been seriously injured!" Zhou Daniu understood the coach's thoughts very well and added in a low voice, "Zhai Rang, Zhai Hong, Zhai Mohou, Wang Ruxin and other eleven people were killed on the spot. Shan Xiongxin surrendered to Li Mi, and Cheng Zhijie was sent out to work with him in advance.
There was a confrontation between the soldiers and horses in Dongdu. After learning the news of the merger between Zhai and Li Huo, the troops dispersed. Zhijie led the other half of the soldiers and horses back to Wagang, handed over the military power to Li Mi, and then stayed behind closed doors!"
Li Xu felt chilled all over, sighed, and asked in a low voice: "Have you brought the secret report?"
"I brought both copies!" Zhao Ziming took out a mulberry paper bag from his pocket, held it in both hands to his coach Li Xu, took the paper bag, and read the news about Wagang's internal strife over and over again, fearing that he missed a word.
This incident, which was enough to change the entire power structure in Henan, happened seven days ago, but the source of the chaos was closely related to the Boling Army.
After rescuing Li Mi, Wang Bodang and others from the Boling Army, Zhai Rang clearly realized that Li Mi was playing two roles in front of him and others. He was very dissatisfied with this, but he could not fall out with Li Mi because of these things.
, so he was no longer willing to retreat to the main village to live a stable life, and began to get involved in military affairs again.
In order to gain a foothold in the army, Li Mi, who had been repeatedly defeated by the Boling Army, urgently needed to regain his lost prestige through several great victories. Unexpectedly, the more anxious he became, the more mistakes he made when using his troops. Although he got Pei Renji, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and
The elite troops of Qi County came to help, but they could not play the latter role. They were first defeated by Duan Da at Tianjin Bridge and then by the unknown Liu Zijing at the foot of Yanshi City. Then, they whimsically bypassed Luoyang to attack Hongnong, but were robbed and killed by the Sui army on the way.
, and defeated several close generals such as Yang Defang and Zheng Detao.
At the same time, other heroes from all walks of life have repeatedly achieved successes. First, Fang Xianbo conquered Ruyin, and then Xu Maogong led five thousand soldiers and horses from Yuanwu to cross the Yellow River and conquer Liyangcang in one fell swoop. Then Zhai Rang went into battle in person, and fought with Cheng Zhijie and Shan Xiongxin.
They defeated Rencheng, Qufu, Bocheng, and Xintai, forcing Zhang Xutuo to surrender.
Half a month ago, Wang Shichong crossed the Luoshui River at night. Chen Bing heard the news from Heishi Li Mi and rushed to rob the camp, but was ambushed by Wang Shichong. General Chai Xiaohe fell into the river and drowned during the retreat.
After hearing the news, he led his cavalry to attack Wang Shichong's rear army, and set fire to all the baggage, and then managed to force the Sui army back and rescue Li Mi.
The next day, the two sides fought again and Zhai Rang personally went out to fake the defeat, which attracted Wang Shichong's Qingqi to chase. Xu Maogong and Pei Renji took the opportunity to rush out, cutting off the connection between the front and back of the Wang's troops, and killed them.
After experiencing this series of defeats, Li Mi became more and more afraid of Zhai Rang, and the celebrities under his command couldn't stand the vulgar style of the old people in the Wagang Army camp. So, under the planning of Fang Yanzao and others, Li Mi decided to cut off the wrists of the strong men.
Preparing for Liu Changgong's opportunity, he first deported Cheng Yaojin and then held a banquet to thank Zhai Rang, Xu Maogong, Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin and others for their life-saving grace. Secretly, he sent warriors to suddenly attack during the banquet and killed Zhai Rang and others on the spot.
Most of his cronies fled out of Wagang Mountain and were surrounded by warriors. Shan Xiongxin was stabbed to death and knelt down to pray for surrender. Fang Yanzao refused. Li Mi originally planned to eradicate the weeds, but was killed by Wang Bodang and Wu Heitai.
After much persuasion, Shan Xiongxin was reluctantly let go, and then he personally bandaged Xu Maogong's wounds...
After a while, Xuzi sighed softly and put the secret report on the corner of the desk. He was sure that the names he was concerned about were not on the list of victims. His mood was slightly stable, but he didn't expect that there would be someone so shameless in the world.
Such a shameless person, with the reputation of a wise man and a righteous man on his head
"According to unconfirmed news, Fang Xianbo stopped returning to Wagang to take orders. Although Xu Yuanlang and others were still under the banner of Wagang Army, they deployed heavy troops in Lihu's generation!" Zhao Ziming also sighed with Li Xu, very
Said with regret
After sorting out his thoughts, Li Xuku asked: "Has this matter already spread? Or is it only known to a few people? What do other forces think?"
"It should have spread that Li Mi was afraid of being laughed at by others, so he announced the twelve major crimes of Zhai Rang! Our detailed work got the news in Jijun on the bank of the Yellow River. After verification, Xingye sent it back to me. I also have some from Wuyang and
The two copies from Pingyuan County also said the same content, but they were not as detailed as this, so they were not brought to the commander." Zhao Ziming pondered for a while and answered slowly.
The Boling Army was born out of the Fenyang Frontier Army in the Sui Dynasty. It has a well-organized system. Many of the institutions originally used to deal with powerful enemies outside the Great Wall were expanded and part of them were borrowed by Zhao Ziming to deal with the rough roads in the Central Plains. The effect was also very significant. Therefore, Zhao Ziming can be sure that there is internal strife in Wagang.
The message is accurate
"Dou Jiande is said to have held a banquet for two days, but Zhu Can gave Li Mi a cart of gold and silver to show his surrender!" After a pause, he continued.
"So far, the craftsmen have only heard that Wang Shichong was very surprised, thinking that Li Mi would get rid of the internal resistance and would soar into the sky soon." After thinking about it carefully, Zhou Daniu added again
"What do you two think?" Li Xu's eyebrows jumped slightly and continued to ask.
Regarding this point, Zhao Ziming and Zhou Daniu came to the same conclusion: "Wang Shichong is said to be very good at leading troops in battle, but his knowledge is too short-sighted!" They commented in unison and then smiled at each other, turning their heads to Li Xu again.
"In a short period of time, Li Mi has indeed completely controlled Wagang and will no longer be held back by anyone. But it won't be long before the Wagang army may face another turmoil!" Zhao Ziming was relatively gentle and tried not to use offensive language to describe Li Mi.
"If anyone surnamed Li is ungrateful and follows him wholeheartedly, Zhai Rang will serve as a warning!" Zhou Daniu came from a business background and spoke with an obvious business style.
Even though they were scolding each other, there was clearly a sense of regret in their words.
What they regret is not the internal strife of the Wagang Army, but the increasingly tight time left for the development of the counties in Boling. If the Wagang Army maintains its recent development trend, regardless of the two imperial courts of Jiangdu and Dongdu, or Li Yuan
It is impossible for any of the rebel forces represented to settle Henan as soon as possible. Even if the battle with the Turks suffers losses, the Boling Army may have enough time to regain its strength.
