Chapter 772: Now it’s our turn to attack, the Liao people are working hard to defend!
"The imperial court really moved the capital..."
When Zhao Ji finally fulfilled Shenzong's unfulfilled wish and took hundreds of officials to Jinling by water, the news finally spread throughout the Song Dynasty.
Even the Sichuan Gorge area, which was least affected by the Liao Kingdom's southward march, was discussing this matter crazily and regretting why the officials did not enter Shu.
As for the Jingdong and Jingdong routes corresponding to Shandong, because they were attacked by Liao soldiers, Zhao Ji and Baiguan's route deliberately avoided it. The same spread spread, and for a while, people's resentment boiled and complaints were heard from all over the country.
In the camp, Gongsun Zhao's face was serious, and he murmured the words "Faint Lord" in his mouth, but in the end he did not curse him directly.
Someone scolded him: "This foolish king really doesn't care about the life and death of the frontline soldiers and the people at all!"
Lu Junyi clenched his fists and looked extremely ugly: "The capital has been moved to the south of the Yangtze River. Even if the enemy can be driven back this time, the Liao dogs will definitely leave and come back in the future, and Hebei will never have peace!"
Zhao Ji's move of the capital was not simply a matter of moving the capital from Kaifeng to Jiangling, but also caused a series of problems.
The most critical point is the collapse of the capital system.
Daming Palace in Beijing, Luoyang in Xijing, and Yingtian Palace in Nanjing originally formed a triangle, guarding Bianjing in the center. Now the center of the imperial court has moved to Jinling, not to mention that Daming Palace is still blocking the Liao army's attack on the front line.
Garrisoning troops will inevitably lead to people being distracted.
Jinling does have the natural danger of the Yangtze River, but the consequence is that the resistance in the north has dropped significantly.
After the Liao army marched straight in, they would definitely discover this. Not to mention how much they could plunder and capture this time, seeing how cowardly the Song Dynasty court was, wouldn't they come next time?
How can I eat just one bite of such a fat lamb?
Naturally, Hebei was the first to bear the brunt of the war and became a place of great war, never having peace.
Therefore, Lu Junyi hated Zhao Ji's move and gnashed his teeth. Not only him, but also the people of Hebei probably felt the same way.
Gongsun Zhao sighed: "Fortunately, my brother came to Shandong and reversed the situation here. If the news of the imperial court moving the capital to Jiangnan came early, the people of Yingtian Mansion would be panicked. Once it was captured by Yelv Dezhong and his troops, and the people of all parts of Shandong would collapse, then all people in Shandong would collapse.
It’s over!”
Lu Junyi said: "Yes, fortunately there are also the Township Corps and the Township Warrior Corps... I just delivered the food. How has Wu Xueguo's training been in the past three months?"
The food and grass for the Hebei Township Corps are currently provided by the Anyang Guild, Lu Family and Chaijiazhuang of the Han family in Xiangzhou. After recovering the lost land in several states, as long as it can withstand the counterattack of the Liao Army, I believe it will be self-sufficient next year.
After all, the Rural Corps is rooted in the countryside and its numbers have not expanded too much.
Logically speaking, the food and grass for the Shandong Xiangyong Regiment can be provided by powerful people from all over the country. For example, the three families in Dulonggang are very willing to provide food and grass. However, Li Yan only takes part of it and asks Lu Junyi to dispatch the food and grass that has been prepared in Cangzhou and escort him all the way.
come over.
This process was quite dangerous. Not only did the Liao army have to deal with possible attacks, but also the bandits along the Shandong road. Even if Lu Junyi took action, he could not ensure that he would be safe, so he arranged for Ding Run to take Liang Shanbo's men along the way, and finally determined the dry road and
Two routes of travel by water.
Lu Junyi didn't quite understand when he went there, but when he came back he understood clearly that since grain and grass could be transported from Hebei to Shandong, this cleared route would also be able to transport grain from Shandong to Hebei in the future to support the front line.
Nowadays, the battlefield in Hebei is changing. If Shandong can completely drive out the Liao people, it will be very important as a rear base, so Lu Junyi is concerned about the training of the rural warriors.
Gongsun Zhao frowned slightly, a strange look flashed across his face, and replied: "The training of the Township Warrior Group went very smoothly, but each family had some setbacks..."
"Please Coach Lin, please save my father!!"
Zhu Long and Zhu Hu kowtowed, and the dying Zhu Zhuzhu lay on the shelf.
Li Yan took out the needle box from his waist and asked, "Master Zhu, what's going on?"
Zhulong Zhuhu blushed and didn't want to say anything, but he didn't dare to hide it from this person, so he could only whisper: "My father went to offer incense and worship Buddha, and was ambushed by the Liao people. He was so frightened that he fainted.
…”
Wu Yong shook his feather fan lightly and sighed: "Zhu Taigong also had good intentions and prayed for thousands of soldiers. Unexpectedly, the Liao people were so despicable that they even invaded Buddhist temples!"
Zhu Long and Zhu Hu suddenly showed gratitude. It was obvious that his father attributed the survival of Zhujiazhuang to the blessing of the Buddha. He went to pray to the Buddha but met with bad luck. Both of them were ashamed to see their brothers in the army, but Military Master Wu was
Generally speaking, I immediately feel much better.
Li Yan's face was calm. After the acupuncture, Master Zhu slowly woke up like Li Qingchen at that time. Zhu Long and Zhu Hu were overjoyed to see him and bowed down: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your great kindness!"
Li Yan nodded: "Please take good care of the owner of the village."
Wu Yongdao: "After sending Zhu Taigong back, I hope the two heroes will do their best in the next battle at Zengtou City!"
Zhu Long and Zhu Hu immediately clasped their fists: "Definitely! Definitely!"
I didn't think anything of it before, but this time I heard the title of military advisor and looked at the white hair between my father's temples. Isn't it too male?
My grandpa is getting old. It’s time to retire and rest. The future of the family must be left to the younger generation!
The two of them carried their father outside. As soon as they left the camp, they saw Hu Cheng walking over with a burly man.
Zhu Long's eyes darkened, and Zhu Hu couldn't help but said: "Master Hu, Master Hu, is taking Coach Luan on patrol again?"
The corners of Hu Cheng's lips raised: "It makes Zhu Erlang laugh. Coach Luan is such a talented person. He is not popular in your village, but he is highly regarded in my Hu family!"
Zhu Long said calmly: "Now that we are all members of the Xiangyong Group, do we still have different families and villages?"
Hu Cheng's complexion changed slightly, he said no more and left quickly.
Luan Tingyu was originally a disciple of Zhujiazhuang, but now she joined Hu Cheng and made many achievements, which made Zhu Hu and Zhu Long very unhappy.
Hu Cheng felt that this malicious intention was quite ridiculous. Luan Tingyu could not be reused in Zhujiazhuang. He was so smart that there was nothing to complain about. When he thought about Zhujiazhuang's previous failure to save him, he felt even more disgusted.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, Hu Cheng did not know that Luan Tingyu, who followed him, was not interested in him, the young owner of Hujiazhuang.
It is really stupid to want to establish a stronghold within the Rural Heroes Group after they have all joined. The three powerful families in Dulonggang who were once close to each other are now almost at odds with each other, which has exposed their pattern even more.
This was not what Luan Tingyu understood, but what Military Master Wu said, which made him understand that this mere village could not accommodate heroes like himself. The Zhu family and the Hu family were both shallow ponds. Only with the guidance of Mr. Lin
Only with appreciation can the future be truly bright.
Luan Tingyu's eyes flashed with anticipation, but she saw Li Ying talking to an ugly man in the distance.
Hu Cheng whispered: "This person is Du Xing, a retainer of the Li Family Village. He was discovered by Military Advisor Wu and is now the scout leader of the volunteer group to collect intelligence..."
Li Ying had a simple temperament and liked to practice martial arts. He would go to the martial arts training field when he had nothing to do. He had rarely interacted with the Zhu family and the Hu family. At this time, after hearing what Du Xing told him, he shouted loudly: "This Zengtou market actually
Collaborating with the Liao people? You deserve to die!"
After Du Xing said a few words briefly, he hugged his fists at Hu Cheng and Luan Tingyu who came over, and immediately went to the Chinese army camp. Hu Cheng and Luan Tingyu went to Li Ying to inquire and confirm the news.
Yelu Dezhong led 20,000 Liao troops and stationed in Zengtou City!
Hu Cheng frowned and said: "I heard that Zeng Nong, the chief of Zengtou City, was originally a Jurchen. When he was young, he came to our Shandong Province to do business and accumulated tens of thousands of wealth. Because of his force, he dominated the village and changed his name.
In Zengtou City, the government did not dare to offend, so its power gradually grew!"
In the past, Song and Liao were at peace with each other and became brotherly countries. Many Liao people came to the Song Dynasty to do business, but few Jurchens came to take root. But no matter what, now the two sides have openly joined forces, and Zengtou City has become a collaborator.
, Li Ying said bitterly: "After we have defeated Zengtou City, let's see who dares to be the lackey of the Beilu!"
Hu Cheng thought of the casualties in the battle with the Liao army during this period, and looked solemn: "No wonder the commander-in-chief ordered to be stationed here. It seems that he is preparing to attack Zengtou City. It's just that this Zengjia fortress is stronger than the three of us, but
It’s not easy to attack!”
Luan Tingyu became excited and said secretly: "This is a good opportunity for me to make a contribution. I wonder if the messenger handed the letter to Junior Brother Sun. If he comes to help us and join our hometown brave group together, we will be more sure to stand out!"
The junior brother Sun to whom Luan Tingyu sent the letter was "Sick Yuchi" Sun Li, one of the most powerful in martial arts among the Earth Evil Stars. The process of going up the mountain to join the gang in the original work was quite speechless. Sun Li had a younger brother named "Little Yuchi" Sun
Xin and Sun Xin’s wives were Sister-in-law Gu, and Sister-in-law Gu’s two cousins were brothers Xie Zhen and Jie Bao, who were framed and imprisoned.
In order to rescue the Jie brothers, Sun Xin and Mrs. Gu deceived Sun Li into their own black shop, and forced him to become a bandit together because of their relationship. They also made it clear that even if they refused, all their relatives and friends would become bandits, and the court would tolerate it.
Without him, Sun Li had no choice but to agree to rescue Erjie and then go to Liangshan.
Sun Li defected to Liangshan, and Luan Tingyu was also unlucky. They were brothers from the same school. Sun Li went to Zhujiazhuang as an undercover agent under the banner of Dengzhou Soldiers and Horses. Luan Tingyu never expected that this promising junior brother would actually defect to the enemy.
, was killed on the spot by Sun Li and Liangshan native Mali Yingwai, and Zhujiazhuang was also captured.
To be honest, without this good junior brother who was righteous and righteous, it would have been impossible to win Zhujiazhuang with the strength of Liangshan at that time. Now that Luan Tingyu wanted to get ahead, he immediately thought of this man who was also outstanding in martial arts and had a wide network of connections.
Junior brother.
Not to mention that everyone has a calculation in their mind, when Zhu Long and Zhu Hu heard the news, they did not even send Master Zhu Zhu back in person, but hurriedly turned around and returned to the Chinese army's tent together.
Li Yan stepped out and looked at the soldiers of the Rural Hero Regiment gathered neatly.
The rural soldiers in Hebei represent the demands of the peasant class, and the rural soldiers are ownerless.
Shandong Xiangyong represents the interests of the landlord class, while Xiangyong is controlled by the landlords.
In the hearts of the powerful landlords of the Zhu family, Li family, and Hu family, they just hope to drive out the Liao people to avoid another crisis of annihilation. However, after the war, the Xiangyong disciples still have to return to their command to serve as
Each service.
Therefore, the task of the trainers is not only to train these rural warriors into qualified soldiers, but also to seize control and eliminate the influence of the landlords.
No one else under Li Yan was suitable to do this. Only Wu Yong, who came from Shandong and was extremely strategic, was the best to come forward.
Now it seems that in just three months, Wu Yong has done a pretty good job, and he has mastered the proportions just right.
If it were the former Wu Xuexue, I wish the owner of the village would not survive and would be killed by his two filial sons.
The three families turned against each other, and it wasn't just because of the loss of talents. It might have been the owner of Villa Li who killed the owner of Villa Hu, and they became undying enemies.
But if you really do that, it would be too unscrupulous, and there will be all kinds of troubles. Li Yan will not use this person again in the future.
Now they are also clearing out the older generation of village owners and letting the easy-to-manipulate juniors fight with each other, but the methods are much gentler, which makes him secretly nod.
In Wu Yong's view, this is a test.
This is the skill of mastery. It seems to be trust, but in fact it is a test. It seems to be a test, but in fact it is trust.
So after handing in his answer sheet, he gently shook his feather fan and followed the head coach without hesitation.
Li Yanze looked at the soldiers and said loudly: "Since the Liao army invaded Shandong, it has poisoned the place and made the people miserable. This attack on Zengtou City will be the official counterattack of our township warriors against the Liao army. They will wipe out the northern captives and pay for their debts with blood."
!”
All the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted in unison: "Blood debt must be paid with blood! Blood debt must be paid with blood!!"
…
Available at Zengtou Market.
Yelu De looked into the distance again and saw at a glance the unparalleled warrior sitting on the lion's cage.
The eyes of both parties met, and the corners of Li Yan's lips raised slightly.
Things are turning, now it's my turn to lead the troops to attack, you Liao people have worked hard to defend!
