ps: Thanks to Eagle Zhou and Qijian for the reward, and to Zhuang Zhou for the first vote of encouragement this month. I will fly to Zhejiang tomorrow morning, so I will take a week off. I have explained this to everyone before, so I apologize again this time. I really feel guilty.
After calculating the itinerary, it is difficult to find time to write down. Sorry.
Zhou Zhiyu entered Shicheng accompanied by Han Yanhui and others with a smile. Li Chengzhong sighed and looked at his relaxed back. After a long time, he turned around and looked at the newly attached generals of a large group of volunteers.
Gao Mingbo pointed at Li Xiaoxi and said: "Captain, this is Li Xiaoxi. His father is an old general of Lu Long and is a descendant of Lu Long. He has made great contributions to our Yingzhou this time!"
Li Xiaoxi saw that the person speaking was the "Gao Du Yu" who summoned him in Pingzhou that day, and thought to himself, "Hey, my dear, what kind of background does this person have? He is so friendly to Governor Li. It seems that he will have to be more fawning in the future."
"Li Xiaoxi pays homage to the Commander-in-Chief! His small contributions are not worth mentioning. He is willing to die for the Commander-in-Chief!"
Li Chengzhong smiled and said: "Are you Li Xiaoxi? I've heard of you a long time ago. This time is very good, I'm very happy." After thinking about it, Li Chengzhong suddenly became evil and teased: "By the way, Mr. Li, your Youyan
How is the preparation of the security company?"
Li Xiaoxi was stunned: "Mr. Li?"
"Yes, General Manager Li, referred to as Mr. Li."
Li Xiaoxi was immediately overjoyed. This time it was no longer "to be determined", but was "confirmed" by Governor Li. He immediately bowed and thanked him, and couldn't help crying and said: "Thank you very much, Governor. I have been wandering for seven or eight years. Today,
I’m going home today!”
Ji Wenyun on the side saw that Li Xiaoxi had won the official position. He was filled with envy. He couldn't hold it back any longer. He took a step forward and crossed his arms across his chest. He said in a military salute: "Ji Wenyun, the last general, pays homage to the governor!"
Li Chengzhong didn't recognize this person and turned to Gao Mingbo beside him. Gao Mingbo had never seen Ji Wenyun before. But he heard Li Xiaoxi talk about it, so he explained: "This is the Ruzhou military envoy, whose original name is Liu Shanyun. He was formerly a member of the Yier Army.
I have a close relationship with Li Xiaoxi, the capital of the capital. A few days ago, Li Xiaoxi sent a letter saying that he had instigated this person to rebel."
So Li Chengzhong offered some words of comfort, while Li Xiaoxi said from the side: "Commander, Brother Wen Yun has done a lot of good work in this act of righteousness before the battle. A certain person has recommended Wen Yun as the second assistant of a certain person, but I don't know if that's okay..."
In Li Chengzhong's eyes, this security company was not within the military system and was a "non-staff, self-funded, enterprise-style public institution", so he didn't take it seriously. After hearing Li Xiaoxi's recommendation, he asked Ji Wenyun: "That's it, it's convenient."
Vice President of Youyan Security Company, are you willing?"
Ji Wenyun was immediately excited: "The general is willing! The general is willing!"
Li Chengzhong nodded and said: "That's it, do it well and don't let Benz down."
Seeing that both Li Xiaoxi and Ji Wenyun had obtained "official positions", Zhang Jingshao did not know the rank of the general manager and deputy general manager of the so-called "Youyan Security Corporation". But seeing the two of them so happy, he felt envious in his heart. Seeing Governor Li
After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave. He couldn't help but become anxious and tugged Li Xiaoxi's skirt hard.
Li Xiaoxi looked down upon the commander of the rear army who "turned sides" before the battle. He was annoyed by him, so he sent another message to Li Chengzhong: "Captain, this is the commander of the rear army Zhang Jingshao. On the occasion of the battle,
, saying that he would like to attach himself to the governor, Jiwei, and asked someone to lead the way."
This introduction was far inferior to Ji Wenyun's. Zhang Jingshao couldn't help but secretly resent it. He took two steps forward and bowed deeply: "The guilty general Zhang Jingshao, please pay homage to the governor!"
Li Chengzhong thought for a while and felt that the name seemed familiar. He happened to hear Gao Mingbo whisper: "Captain, this is the former Jimen general who later joined the Yier Army and became Liu Shouguang's confidant. This person also has another identity, he is Zhang
A distant cousin of Du Yu."
Li Chengzhong suddenly realized that he remembered that this man had proposed marriage for Liu Shouguang and wanted to be a matchmaker for Lan'er.
"Lao Zhang, your uncle?" He looked at Zhang Xingzhong aside, and saw Zhang Xingzhong snorted with a cold face. He couldn't decide for a while, so he said: "Talk to Zhang Duyu about your matter."
, I will talk to Zhang Duyu later."
Li Chengzhong was dealing with the matter of surrendering generals at the foot of Shicheng. While they were talking one by one, a burst of cheers suddenly sounded from a distance and spread to the entire army in a moment. The cheers came from far to near, from small to loud. By the time they reached Li Chengzhong's side, they were already
erupted into a thunderous cry.
"Yum! Yum! Yum!"
"Great victory! Great victory! Great victory!"
"Youzhou! Youzhou! Youzhou!"
With the arrival of cheers, several dusty cavalrymen came to Li Chengzhong. They were from Youzhou and were scouts of the First Cavalry Battalion of the Wyoming Alliance.
"Captain, we have already marched down to Youzhou. Yesterday morning, the vanguard of the Huaiyue Allied Forces entered the city."
As soon as the high-pitched words of the rangers finished, nearly a thousand soldiers from the camp above and below the city burst into loud cheers again. The cheers gradually became more uniform, spread to all directions, and soared into the sky!
"Stay behind! Stay behind!..."
"Stay behind! Stay behind!..."
"Stay behind! Stay behind!..."
Pingzhou, camp south of the city.
Soldiers from Pingzhou Preparatory Camp, Liucheng Preparatory Camp, Yanjun Preparatory Camp, Jinxian Preparatory Camp, Liaocheng Preparatory Battalion, and Jian'an Preparatory Battalion were closely guarding the plank road inside the camp, and the archers on the archery tower had also set up their crossbows.
Winding up the string, he stared closely at the large group of Badu cavalry passing by outside the camp. The Badu cavalry circled the camp several times, but seeing no opportunity to take advantage of it, they gradually moved away.
Zhou Kan looked regretful on the guard tower of Daying, shook his head slightly, and shouted down: "Each camp will go down to the plank road to eat. Pingzhou Camp, Liucheng Camp, Yanjun Camp, and Jinxian Camp will remove their armor, and the other camps will take off their armor."
Still wearing armor."
On the city wall of Pingzhou, the governor Zhang Zaiji looked at the Badu cavalry leaving in the distance and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. An aide, Zuo Er, advised him to go down to the city to rest, but he insisted on staying at the top of the city and looked towards the west from time to time in the direction of Stone City.
Yuguan.
Yuhou Yuanxingqin was urging the soldiers to prepare more rolling logs and boil more kerosene. He loudly said to the soldiers: "To guard Yuguan, just tighten your pockets. If we can't withstand it, it will not only be broken."
According to the governor's plan, the endless grassland will also become a pasture for the enemy to hunt! Think about Liucheng and Yanjun behind us, think about our home, no enemy will be allowed to pass through here in this battle!"
While the battle equipment was being prepared nervously on the pass, two mounted scouts came from the southwest and northwest respectively. They did not enter the pass, but loudly reported at the foot of the pass.
"A large group of cavalry appeared ten miles to the southwest. They have seen one general flag and thirteen command flags. It is estimated that the enemy cavalry has 2,000 to 3,000 people. The word 'Zhao' can be seen on the general flag, which is the estimated main force of the overlord cavalry.
!”
"There is a small group of rangers thirteen miles northwest, coming along the foothills of the mountain. The enemy's flag is not yet known."
After hearing this, Yuan Xingqin was inexplicably excited. He licked his chapped lips, raised his arms and shouted to the sergeants: "Brothers, the enemy is coming, military glory is within easy reach, we must work hard!"
Outside the Pass. At the foot of Bailang Mountain, Bailang Mountain Military Academy.
A football match was going on fiercely. As the ball swooped into the goal, Abaoji sneered and climbed up from the ground. He patted the dust off his body and high-fived his teammate Abing who reached out to him. The two met.
With encouragement, more teammates rushed forward, squeezing the two of them tightly into the inner circle.
Huyeshibili spat hard and looked at his teammates with anger: "What did you do? I'll score a few points in front of you, but you dare to lose a few in the back. Do you still want to win?"
?" Seeing his teammates lowering their heads in frustration, and all of them being silent, Huye Sibili had to cheer them up again: "Okay, okay. Let's not talk about this. From now on, keep an eye on Aping and Abaoji.
Every pass and every shot needs to be carefully monitored. If it doesn't work, just give me a shovel, especially that Aping, this kid is secretive. I know him too well..."
Abing on the opposite side pulled Abaoji and other teammates to him, and whispered: "There are still two hourglasses to go. We are two goals ahead. As long as we defend well, we will win this game. Which of you doesn't want to score tomorrow?"
The final? No? Very good! Now let’s defend and play 541. Brother Abaoji, you are the only one in front, okay? Very good, everyone will kick the ball forward when they get it.
, let Brother Abaoji fight for it."
Waiting for the break to serve, Abaoji seemed to feel something inexplicably and looked towards the end of the western sky.
"Brother Abaoji! Brother Abaoji!"
"Ah? Oh..."
"Brother Abaoji, concentrate and don't think nonsense... What is brother Abaoji thinking about?"
"I was thinking... I never imagined that now we are actually studying here, together with Hu Li... I wonder if Governor Li has entered Youzhou?"
Aping was silent for a moment and said: "Let's win this game first... Actually, we can still learn a lot of things here... For example, this football match..."
The whistle sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two. Abaoji knocked the ball to Aping, turned around and rushed forward. After receiving the ball, Aping continued to pass it back, then asked for the ball, and took a few steps after receiving the ball.
, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a gap appearing next to Abaoji, and he lobbed a long pass forward. As soon as he passed the ball, a figure had already shoveled him close to the ground. Abao jumped subconsciously to avoid the fierce pass.
He made a tackle, but was still knocked to the ground.
The moment A Ping fell to the ground, he heard warm cheers erupting from the audience, and he smiled happily. Suddenly, inexplicably, A Baoji's question came to mind: "I wonder if Governor Li has invaded Youzhou?"
?”
Youzhou, outside Anton Gate.
Xie Li led a large group of Huaiyue coalition forces here to wait for Zhong Shao's arrival. The fall of Youzhou did not take much effort. Since the wealthy families in the city raised their troops, they responded internally and externally to Zhao Yuanping, Gao Mingxun and others, which soon made people panic.
After Youzhou was captured, Liu Yanlang was picked up by Gao Liu's spear inside the Qing Jin Gate, and the rest of the troops surrendered.
When Jie Li arrived with his troops, the entire Youzhou City was already intact in front of the Huaiyue coalition forces. However, Jie Li did not dare to enter the city. He just ordered Zhao Yuanping, Gao Mingxun and others to lead troops into the city to clear it up, and then
Waiting for Commander Zhong Shao outside Anton Gate.
Andong Gate is located in the east of Youzhou City and is connected to Qingjin Gate due west by Shili Street. It is the main gate for the entry and exit of large armies.
When Zhong Shao and the Huaiyue Allied Forces Headquarters arrived, Xie Li stepped forward and saluted with military salute: "Commander of the capital, the clearing of Youzhou City has been completed, please give me your instructions." Behind Xie Li was Gao Liu.
All the wealthy Youzhou families headed by the clan bowed and saluted.
Zhong Shao made the same decision as Xie Li. He did not dare to enter the city. He smiled faintly and said: "We will rest outside the city for a day. We still need to wait for the governor to arrive in person in Youzhou. Commander Xie Li, tomorrow morning, you will lead the army
The cavalry of Wei Camp, Yalu Camp, and Kumoxi Camp are rushing south to Cangzhou. Zhao Ranghui will lead the Xiongjin Camp, and Shulu Camp will escort the grain and grass behind you! Remember, this battle must be fast, and Zhao Yuande must not be allowed to flee south.
Machine. After capturing Cangzhou City, set up defenses from Xiongjin Camp to Laoling and Shulu Camp to Husu. You are not allowed to cross the Cangzhou border for the time being to avoid conflict with the Wei, Bo, Xuanwu, and Xuanwu coalition forces. You will be given a total of ten days. After ten days, you must
Lead three battalions of cavalry to go north to support the governor in suppressing the Jizhou soldiers and Badu cavalry!"
Jie Li nodded and said "yes", and then asked: "Zhong Duyu, will you go to reinforce the governor?"
Zhong Shao said: "Captain Wuyou, I am going to capture Jizhou!" (To be continued...)
