This golden token was left to her and her eldest brother by her father. One piece each could command the elite cavalry soldiers secretly trained by Chen Guogong's mansion.
Seeing the token is like seeing the father himself!
After the death of his father, the soldiers of Chen Guogong under his father were scattered to various military camps. Later, the eldest brother inherited his father's Chen Guogong. The soldiers of Chen Guogong's palace were recruited to his banner again by the eldest brother. However, those elite cavalry soldiers did not return to Chen Guogong's palace. It was precisely because of the eldest brother.
Don’t want to alarm Xiao Heng!
Even Xiao Heng never thought that Hou Chong, the Yue Cavalry School Lieutenant stationed in Jizhou, was the elite forward among these three thousand elite cavalry troops!
The old housekeeper of the palace took the golden token and saw a pictographic "Li" engraved on it. He was shocked: "Princess, this token is..."
"Take my message, saying that the king of Luoyang, Zhongzhou, is in danger. After seeing the token, he quickly leads his troops to Zhongzhou! When Hou Chong, the Yue Cavalry School Lieutenant stationed in Jizhou, sees this, he will naturally send troops to rescue the prince and steward Chen.
Without further ado, just follow my instructions!" Wei Zijin said in a deep voice.
Although the old housekeeper of the palace had a lot of doubts in his heart, he did not dare to waste a moment. He quickly went to find a loyal subordinate who the prince had specially left in the palace, handed the token to him, and personally sent it to Hou Chong, the captain of Yueqi School.
in hand.
When the subordinates sent by the Luoyang Palace rushed to deliver the gold token to the Yue Cavalry School Lieutenant Hou Chong, and brought Wei Zijin's message, Hou Chong almost did not hesitate for a moment, and left Ji with the three thousand iron cavalry.
Zhou, go to Zhongzhou.
The deputy general Song Cheng and the general of the town army Xu Jing outflanked the army of Luoyang King Xiao Jingyao one after another. They thought that by blocking their retreat, they could force the Luoyang King to surrender. However, they did not expect that the Luoyang King's tens of thousands of troops would be so difficult to attack. Following the Luoyang King's army
All the soldiers are brave and good at fighting.
On the other hand, the hundreds of thousands of troops led by the two of them were already tired from fighting for a long time. In addition, the previous coach was personally captured by Luoyang King Xiao Jingyao, and he was also afraid of the Luoyang King!
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate and were about to be exhausted, Hou Chong, an elite forward, led 3,000 iron cavalry in person and rushed to Lingfeng in Zhongzhou before dawn, beating the defenseless soldiers of Song Cheng who were guarding the front.
caught off guard.
Originally, there were only 50,000 remaining soldiers in Song Cheng's hands. When he saw the 3,000 iron cavalry attacking, he was so frightened and panicked that he couldn't resist at all and became a mess!
When Song Cheng saw this, he thought that the three thousand iron cavalry were just a vanguard force and had no intention of fighting. With all the exhausted soldiers participating, they all surrendered to Luoyang King Xiao Jingyao.
Xu Jing did not expect that Song Cheng would suddenly surrender at this time, so he could only lead his troops to face the army of the King of Luoyang.
However, the army under Xu Jing's command was already disorganized. Even though there were 200,000 soldiers and horses, they were no match for the bravery of King Luoyang's command. They were beaten back and forth, and were finally defeated in Zhongzhou.
Xiao Jingyao took advantage of the victory and pursued the attack. With three thousand cavalry as the vanguard, the remnants of the general Xu Jing's army forced them to Huaiyin.
Xiao Heng, who was waiting for the victory of the veteran Xu Jing in the imperial palace, heard that Xu Jing was defeated and retreated to Huaiyin. Long Yan was furious. Regardless of the dissuasion of the officials, he immediately replaced the veteran Xu Jing and replaced him with Zheng who recommended himself to lead the army.
Wei.
However, Zheng Wei only knew how to talk about military affairs on paper and never knew how to use troops. He was resourceful but arrogant, fierce and timid. After taking over Xu Jing's position as the general of the army, he suffered successive defeats.
