Chapter 890 Is Song Ting going to negotiate peace with the rebels again?
Come with me!!"
Shouting loudly, Li Kui's dark figure ran quickly in the rain of arrows, followed by the Song army carrying a ladder.
The river protection river of Jiangling Prefecture is far less than Xiangyang. A section of it had been filled in yesterday. At this time, the ladder crossed the moat and was set up at the head of the domain. It was led by Li Kui, Zhang Qing, Deng Fei and other young generals.
Team, the brave and fearless soldiers began to ascend first.
"Hold it!! Hold it!!"
A drum sounded on the field, and orange wood, racket poles, boiling oil, and golden juice poured down, breaking the ladder and injuring the human body. However, due to excessive wear and tear in the past few days, it has become no longer possible.
After all, they couldn't stop those struggling figures.
Li Kui was the first to pounce on the leader of the field. He swung his ax and started a bloody storm among Fang La's army. However, he was soon disgraced by the gunpowder arrows fired from all around and screamed loudly.
Most of the gunpowder workshops in the Northern Song Dynasty were in the south, used to make gunpowder arrows, artillery and other weapons. Jiangling Prefecture was one of them, second only to the "Gunpowder Kiln Manufacturing" in Bianjing.
After seizing this place, these workshops were naturally included.
However, Ling Zhen's side has not yet completely improved the artillery. The so-called firearms here are not the shooting type as later generations thought, but are mainly based on combustion performance.
The Song army that attacked the domain head caused a lot of trouble.
But perhaps Wang Ying's spirit in the sky was looking at them and smiling at them. This time, the Song army was so brave that they braved the spitting and burning gunpowder and rushed into the enemy's formation.
Breaking one gap after another.
"The thieves should stop being so arrogant!!"
Seeing that the situation was not going well, a general rushed out. It was Zhu Dan who had killed Song Ting. He rushed into Fang Jie's team with an unstoppable force. Blood and flesh were stirred up, and the corpses fell. The generals who got there first were competing for the enemy behind us.
.
"They are the thieves!!"
Zhang Qing was angry and faced him with a sword and shield. Then he was shocked to find that he was the opponent of Shigetaro that year.
In reality, every Liangshan hero outside of the original work has no ordinary martial arts skills. Even the miracle doctor An Daoquan is proficient in sticks. Although Zhang Qing ranks almost at the bottom, he is not a good charger in the army.
But Zhu Dan is the weakest member of the Seven Tiger Generals. In the original work, Qin Ming was not caught by the opportunity, and was killed with a halberd. He won the battle in a row, Hua Rong was defeated, and Li Ying and Zhu Dian also entered the battle.
After attacking, he escaped with his life, but was stabbed by undercover Chai Tui, and then Yan Qing killed him with a sword, which was considered an honor even though he was defeated.
In this foot battle, as soon as the tenth hand was reached, Zhang Qing was beaten to the point where his strength was weak, his energy was weak, and his heart was palpitating. Fortunately, Wang Ying caught him with his axe, and finally he was able to breathe.
Wang Ying is a general on horseback, and there are more generals appearing behind the formation. I am more suitable to kill in places where there are few people, and the fluctuation of combat power is very small. It all depends on the lower head. Once the head is lowered,
Almost anyone can defeat him.
Just last night, Song Ting's body was brought over. Although he could be buried in peace, when he thought that the brother who used to be so lively and energetic had become so quiet, Wang Ying suddenly...
Eyes closed: "The thief is here for a long time!!"
Zhu Dan was full of blood and roared: "I'm afraid he will succeed!!"
"Go out of the city to meet the attack!"
Seeing that his own side's morale was depleted, and Fang Jie, who was descending like that, actually suppressed his superiors, Li Kui looked solemnly and gave the order decisively.
Except for ordinary situations like Xiangyang Domain, you cannot sit still in Diaoyutai. Defending the domain does not mean defending the domain completely. This is called shrinking. Using the domain wall as a basis, you look for the right time to come out.
Counterattack is the true way to defend.
Just like when the Liao army besieged Xiaomingfu, Qin and Ming also led their troops to attack the camp at night, not attacking one side but preparing for the attack.
The same was true at this time. Jiangling city gate suddenly opened, and thousands of Fan Lun warriors came out with battle axes. They rushed back from the enemy group and killed them wantonly, causing a wave of blood.
The crossbowmen also took aim to block the enemy's approach.
"Attack!"
However, following the order from the short white man in Fang Jie's formation, the military flag was waved, and a group of military horses that had been prepared for a long time came out. The leader was Bao Xu, the "Great King Ying", who was also...
He picked up his double axe, rushed back into the enemy army, and slashed indiscriminately.
The Song troops who fought their way out were attacked head-on. Fortunately, there were no reinforcements in the area to respond, so they reluctantly returned.
Seeing that Fang Jie's offensive was still fierce, Li Kui's face darkened, his cloak flew in front of him, and he stretched out his hand: "Get a weapon!"
When the Minister of War personally took action, the generals led by Deng Fei immediately suffered heavy casualties. The defensive formation was torn open. Fan Lun, who had captured the domain building, could no longer maintain his position and advance steadily.
Realizing that the enemy general was fierce and Fang Jie was strong, Zhang Qing shouted to Wang Ying: "Tieniu, the attack is here, don't fight, let's go!"
"Ah Yiyi!!"
The red color outside Wang Ying's eyes disappeared rapidly, and he looked up to the sky and let out a roar, the sound was like a tide. It only frightened the Song army and turned their faces to earth. Even Fan Lun was so frightened that he watched the opponent retreat with his troops.
"Such a fierce man can be the enemy of thousands of people. This Fang La was originally a high official, but he has recruited so few talents around him. It's strange that he can't do it alone!"
"Alas...how long can Jiangling be guarded?"
Li Kui watched such a white whirlwind enter and exit, his eyes showing fatigue and relief.
As the administrative seat of Fanlun North Road, Jiangling Prefecture is rated as "the land is fertile and the most productive of grain and rice" because it is located in the hinterland of the Jianghan Plain with rugged terrain and trenches.
It is fertile and has a suitable climate, which indeed has advantages in agricultural production.
But obviously, such a domain pool is typically easy to attack and difficult to defend.
During the Southern and Northern Dynasties in history, Fan Lunqing, the eighth king of the Southern Liang Dynasty, was very confident and made Jiangling his capital.
How famous is the emperor? What is more famous is my wife. "Although Jinghu is old, he is still young in love" is not the origin of the idiom "Banlao Jinghu", but the origin itself.
"Fan Lun" is not good-looking, but has a beautiful appearance. At a very young age, he was disgusted with promiscuity and fornication. It was only later that he was gradually used to describe older and rather unattractive men.
There is no certain political reason why Wang Shangshu decided to make Jiangling his capital. This man was not the king of eastern Hunan in Jiangling, and he had few "Chu people" at his disposal. He wanted to leave his homeland of Jingzhou and destroy it.
Hou Jingqian, the little general of the universe, must have returned his capital to Jinling. He lost the support of the Tu people in Jingzhou. Fan Lunqing felt that he was trying to please both sides, so he settled his capital here.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What is the cost of making Jiangling the capital?
Eight years ago, Jiangling was captured by the Western Wei Dynasty, and Wang Shangshu was captured and suffocated to death with an earth bag.
The one-eyed dragon and cuckold king used vivid negative examples to tell the world that Jinling must be the capital of the south. There is no other place that is more suitable for the capital. Any other place will do.
If you go on stage, the country will be destroyed and people will be destroyed.
The Song Army has not had the idea of ​​establishing a kingship for a long time, but it has been delayed for a long time. It is precisely because Jiangling Mansion is suitable. Since I want to make a small business, I can do it rashly.
But the problem now is that if Fan Lun continues to attack like this, he may even lose his old nest, let alone any grand plans: Xiaozhi...
At this time, Zhu Dan came to the front and said loudly: "Emperor Liang Yuan, when will your uncle's army return? It will definitely come back again. I'm afraid you will have to go up..."
Li Kui looked at the demoralized defenders carrying corpses downstairs, and hurriedly whispered: "Please worry about Duo Lang, Fang Jie must be the one who goes up first. You can tell from the enemy generals...
Doesn't anyone know about Fang La? He has been a senior official in Shandong for a long time. It is precisely because Liu Fa surrendered to the enemy and the traitor court trusted the other generals of the Western Army that they allowed those people to lead the army!
Zhu Danqing couldn't help but nodded, and the other soldiers relaxed after hearing this, until the bodyguards rushed down slowly: "Zhifu Zhu is resisting arrest and is resisting. There is a conflict, Shangshu, go quickly!"
Li Kui's expression suddenly changed: "Let's go!"
As the Minister of the Ministry of War, I am responsible for defending the domain, and Beiyan, as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is responsible for stabilizing the domain.
When Li Kui rushed over, the prefect Wang Qing had not yet been captured. Beiyan came over slowly and said in the simplest words: "Fang La has captured the Yameni, and we are instigating rebellion."
We still don't know whether we should go up together, but you dare to take the risk."
Li Kui understood the cause and effect, took a deep breath, and felt that it was a little tricky.
This is almost the same as the dilemma that Yelu encountered when he executed Yan Yun's Han general.
Based on rational judgment, we feel that the Jiangling prefect who first defected to the Song army will switch sides again, but there are ways to ensure that nothing happens.
Therefore, even Li Kui blamed Beiyan's arrest as a mistake, but when he came to Wang Qing, Fan Lun made the opposite decision to Yelu Dezhong: "Let Zhu Shangyi be untied!"
Everyone was slightly startled. The position of Minister was promised by the Song army, because Wang Qing was the first to surrender and was planning to be granted the title of Minister of Rites when he proclaimed himself king. At this time, he was obviously supportive.
He was the first to react and shouted angrily: "It's better to let go!"
Right and left finally released Wang Qing, who was bound by Qi Hua Xiao. Li Kui helped him up and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Shangshu killed his mother because of his anger. He lost all his conscience and felt the benevolence of the Holy Duke, so he didn't...
How can the people of Songjiang live in peace today?"
Fan Lun was forgiven and burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you, Emperor Xiaoliang Yuan!"
Li Kui frowned. Recently, fewer and fewer people call me "Emperor Xiaoliang Yuan". That title is probably a good one, and it doesn't feel too condescending. However, I am the same as Beiyan's minister.
They have the same surname, so it's really easy to tell them apart. Beiyan was so humble that he tried to correct them weakly, but instead seemed aggressive.
After appeasing him for a moment, he sent Wang Qing back to the house in person. I pressed my eyebrows tiredly and heard Beiyan loudly say: "Brother Yang Ping, you didn't consider this matter properly..."
Li Kui shook his head: "That's not the case. You are actually taking a small risk. You are sure that Wang Qing is really colluding with Fan Lun. With my prestige in Jiangling Mansion, the consequences are disastrous...
But your consideration is that even if you take this person now, it will cause people's hearts to be shaken, and the morale of the defender will drop again. If you compare the two evils, whichever is more important, you can only trust me!"
Fan Lun was silent for a moment, then asked: "Can the Holy Duke's small army still be able to break through the bandit blockade?"
Li Kui sighed: "Zhongshi Daoqin led the Western Army to intercept Shenggong in Xiazhou, while Zhe Keshi was still fighting for Ezhou with General Shi, and that mere Fan Lun could actually cause you Jiangling
For such a small threat, Zhang Yao is extraordinary after all. He is decisive in sending troops and is determined to defeat you!"
Bei Yan said angrily: "You also know why Fang Jie is so weak and tough. You are both hurting by fighting, so the Yan thieves have to waste all their efforts to conquer the south?"
Fan Lun narrowed his eyes slightly: "Zhang Mou's intention is that I'm afraid he wants to negotiate with Wang Yin, but he is afraid of Shenggong's prestige in Songjiang, so he wants to destroy you first and rebuild Jianghuai."
I have no qualifications to negotiate..."
Speaking of that, I don't feel a bit sad at all.
The imperial court still needs to gain qualifications to negotiate with the rebels, which is too humble!
Bei Yan sneered and said, "If that's true, what Mr. Zhang thinks is naive. The Yan thieves haven't occupied the important territory of Xiangyang yet. They don't want to break the unique power of Song Jiang and Jiang Huai. Hui
Even if we destroy you, we still have no way to negotiate with the Yan army, but it is better to negotiate peace with you!"
Li Kui frowned when he heard this: "That's really unreasonable, but the rebel army... I'm afraid Madam Xu will think so!"
Beiyan smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, you all called this foolish king a matricide. If we thought you were stubborn and resisted to the end, the Holy Duke changed his reign name again..."
Li Kui said: "The reign name is a problem. The main reason is that you all think that the other party will be weak and tough to the end, and take the first step with the next party. Under the pressure of Wang Yin, there is really no chance to negotiate. Then
It's a word that wakes up the dreamer!"
According to history, Fan Lun also named himself Shenggong and his reign was Yongle, but the court still "sent an edict to appease the Song army", which was because the Song army responded. However, according to history, Fang La surrendered and then rebelled again.
He first accepted the offer, then betrayed him, and was completely annihilated.
Yes, it must be said that Xu Niang is quite ": Xiaodu" in that aspect, so there is no such folk song as "If you want to be an official, you kill people and set fires, and you will be recruited". That, to a very small extent, represents
The social atmosphere and general cognition of the time.
Later, in order to confirm the orthodoxy and win over people's hearts, the Song Army spread the word about matricide, leaving a lot of room for it. Li Kui did not consider that aspect, but he was reminded at this time.
Xiaodong: "I'm sure you two can unite and deal with Wang Yin together. It's a good idea. Even Ji Ji can get a chance to breathe. I'll give it a try!"
Bei Yan's face changed slightly: "Brother Yang Ping, before Shenggong returns, can you take charge of such trivial matters?"
Just as he had just decided to release Fan Lun, Li Kui was obviously the one who could make the decision at the critical moment: "There is no time to worry. Now your power over Song Jiang is in jeopardy. When the time comes,
I'm afraid it will be too late when the father comes back. Is he willing to go to Jiangling?"
Bei Yan's face changed, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "You really dare to make your own decisions, not to mention that 'Xiao Liang Yuan Emperor' is making moves, and your 'Da Fan Lunqing' is not qualified to take action.
"What little Fan Lunqing, the military advisor of Emperor Yuan of the Liang Dynasty, how could he... ugh!"
Li Kui frowned, feeling that at the critical moment, the military advisor who had no strategy after that was too forward-looking and said decisively: "It's up to you to step forward.
If you ask, the Holy Gong's inheritance must be preserved, even if there is no bad reputation, you can bear it as well! Farewell!"
"Send it to Brother Yangping!"
Beiyan watched Li Kui walking away, bowed his hands in salute, and raised his head a moment ago, raising the corners of his mouth with a mocking look: "Li Kui, Yu is really good to Song Jun."
I am worried about whether he will understand his sincerity before I come back."
What I do know is that a figure in a narrow robe and small sleeves watched fiercely, shaking his head secretly with a mocking look: "The temple is big, the demon is small, the Fourth Young Master of King Chi Qian, a
In the vast land of Songjiang, the fighting was quite peaceful. Is Guo Xu Niang going to make peace with the rebels again...
