Both the historian and the officials were shocked, and the former hurriedly asked: "Why is this happening in the Ming Dynasty? Since we just lamented that the heroes have no use, isn't this a God-given opportunity? If we can resist Fang Jun's army, it will be a great achievement, and Zhao Guogong will definitely not hesitate to reward him.
It's easy to be promoted to the third level, so why go out of the city and surrender? Once Zhao Guogong learns that the Ming Dynasty surrendered without a fight, he will be furious and may be severely punished!"
He believed that this was really a good opportunity. As the saying goes, "When a country is in trouble, we will know good generals, and when we are in trouble, we will know loyal ministers." It is when the situation is urgent that we can see who are capable ministers and officials and who are incompetent.
Fang Jun led his army to attack thousands of miles to aid the East Palace, which shocked Guanlong and everyone in panic and caused low morale. If Fang Jun could be attacked at this time, he would naturally become famous and resound throughout the world!
Li Yifu almost lost his temper. He flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "The Duke of Yue is talented in martial arts and has an unparalleled reputation. His soldiers are an army that has fought in hundreds of battles. This attack has traveled thousands of miles from the Western Regions to aid the East Palace. He is loyal, brave and has unparalleled integrity."
, we should open the door to welcome you, kneel under the horses' hooves and rely on you sincerely. How can we ignore our loyalty and help the tyrants to do evil? If you dare to say such rebellious words again, don't blame me for being unkind and handing you over to the Duke of Yue!"
After saying that, he strode out of the government office without looking back and went straight to the city gate.
Sniper Fang Jun?
It’s just an idiot’s dream! The soldiers under Fang Jun’s command were brave and unafraid of death. They were victorious in every battle. Even Xue Yantuo and Tuyuhun’s cavalry could not shake him in the slightest. Instead, he was beaten to pieces. No matter how unruly and confident Li Yifu was, he did not dare to rise even a little bit. "
The extravagant hope of fighting and winning.
What's more, he and Fang Jun have known each other for a long time. Although he was "favored by giving him clothes" in the past, for some reason, Fang Jun always had an undisguised hostility towards him later on, and his fear and vigilance were clearly revealed.
If someone else were to attack Fang Jun in Jingyang, even if he was defeated in the end, Fang Jun would probably just tie him up and throw him aside. But now it is his Li Yifu who is guarding Jingyang. God knows whether Fang Jun will kill him with one blow after breaking the city.
Already...
…
In the wind and snow, tens of thousands of cavalry were pressing towards Jingyang City like a mountain. The small city wall was surrounded by cavalry all over the mountains and plains. It was like a rock in the ocean tide, which could be completely annihilated by one wave.
Fang Jun did not make a detailed siege plan. The current situation was urgent and the troops were very fast. Although they urgently needed the grain and fodder from Changpingcang in Jingyang City to supply the army, they could not stay for too long.
"All armies move forward and attack the city walls from all directions. The city will be captured within half an hour. The first to reach the city will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and be promoted to two ranks!"
Fang Jun gave a loud order, and the whole army was so excited that they howled with excitement. Their morale was at the peak. Countless cavalrymen whipped their horses and rushed towards the city.
The iron hoofs trampled the ice and snow on the ground, the whole land was trembling slightly, and the towering city walls were crumbling!
Then, the gate of Jingyang City was opened from the inside. Officials in the city, large and small, wearing various official robes, quickly walked out under the guidance of one person. When they saw the charging cavalry coming suddenly, they all turned pale with fear.
, the timid one even knelt on the ground with his legs weak...
"Uu——"
Countless war horses galloped over and reined their horses together in front of the city gate. Their majestic momentum was matched with sharp swords and guns, and they were filled with murderous intent!
Li Yifu tried his best to calm down, bowed his head to the ground, and said loudly: "Li Yifu, who is the magistrate of Jingyang County, leads the city officials to welcome the Duke of Yue!"
The cavalry looked at each other and surrendered?
It should be noted that Fang Jun had just offered a very high reward, and the first comers would be treated well. However, in the blink of an eye, the county magistrate left the city and surrendered, making everyone's excitement disappear in an instant.
I really want to kill this weak-minded county magistrate with one knife, and then continue to attack the city regardless...
Li Yifu clearly felt the vicious and malicious gazes around him, and he became more and more timid. He could only bow deeper and said loudly again: "Welcome the Duke of Yue!"
The Jingyang officials behind him were also sweating profusely. In front of him were the countless proud warriors who had won consecutive battles against the Hu cavalry. Even if they just rode their horses without moving, there was still an invisible force of iron-blooded killing force.
The anger rushed to his face, and he seemed to be able to gallop forward at any time and wave his sword high...
Fortunately, after a while, when all the Jingyang officials were frightened, the cavalry in front of them separated to both sides, revealing a passage, and Fang Jun, surrounded by his own soldiers, marched out.
Li Yifu breathed a long sigh of relief, and bowed his head to the ground again: "In this humble position, please see the Duke of Yue!"
The officials behind him also shouted in unison: "See the Duke of Yue!"
Fang Junduan sat on his horse and looked down at Li Yifu, who had his head lowered in front of him. He was a little surprised: Didn't this guy go to Changsun Wuji? Why did he become the magistrate of Jingyang County again...
However, this was not the time to reminisce about old times. He waved his hand and ordered: "Excuse me, Magistrate Li, to lead the army into the city for repairs. This commander has traveled thousands of miles and is short of food and fodder. Please cooperate with me in opening Changping Granary to replenish food and fodder. The East Palace is the empire's
Zhengshuo is currently under siege by the rebels and is in critical danger. I am eager to rush to Chang'an to rescue him. If anyone delays the army's schedule and violates the rules, don't blame me for punishing them severely with military law!"
Li Yifu hurriedly said: "I don't dare to hold a humble position! All the officials in Jingyang are loyal to your majesty and the prince. They work hard and die without giving up! It's just a pity that the rebel army is powerful, and we are responsible for guarding Jingyang, so we can just live in peace and defend Jingyang. That's it."
I feel ashamed that I have failed the emperor's favor! At present, the Duke of Yue is rushing thousands of miles to come to his aid. He is not afraid of hardships and dangers, and his loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon. Naturally, we will cooperate with our full strength, but we have orders and we can do anything!"
The Jingyang official behind him: Mother! I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen you so shameless. Previously, you had vowed that the East Palace had no future, and you were trying to find ways to make a contribution in front of Zhao Guogong. In the blink of an eye, you have become a loyal supporter of the East Palace...
…
Fang Jun didn't care. Although he didn't know that Li Yifu had previously told his agency that he wanted to rely on Guan Long, he was the person who knew Li Yifu best in this era. No matter how he talked about it, how could he not know his cunning and cunning?
A capricious character?
Immediately with a wave of his hand, the soldiers under his command were divided into two. One part drove straight from the city gate and entered Jingyang City. First, soldiers rushed to various streets and alleys, loudly announcing that the Youtun Guards were stationed, and strictly ordered the merchants and common people in the city to stay in their homes and not move around in order to ensure peace.
Promote the people.
Then the army went straight to Changping Granary, opened the warehouse door, and replenished the food supply.
The other part did not enter the city at all, but bypassed Jingyang City and crossed the Jing River, rushing southward and heading straight for the Dongwei Bridge.
Fang Jun stayed in Jingyang City and took his troops and Jingyang officials to Changping Granary. He dismounted his horse and went inside to inspect. He was relieved when he saw mountains of grain and a warehouse full of hay.
The army traveled long distances, was lightly armed, and was running out of food and supplies. If it could not receive supplies in time, it would be unsustainable, leading to a sharp drop in morale, a sharp drop in combat effectiveness, and even the risk of collapse.
Fortunately, the Changping Granary has plenty of food, which can support a battle of more than 100,000 people.
Li Yifu respectfully accompanied him and said cautiously: "The Duke of Yue's thousands of miles to come to your aid will surely boost the hearts of the people in the world and make them more determined to support the East Palace. The Guanlong rebels are afraid of your reputation, so they must be in chaos and their morale will plummet."
.The Duke of the State of Yue will surely be able to stabilize the world, eliminate rebellion, and achieve great military exploits!"
These words are not flattery.
Although he was rejected by the disciples of Guanlong and had to succumb to Jingyang City, he was always paying attention to the situation in Chang'an. Guanlong was so powerful that he now united with many clans in Hedong and Hexi. With powerful troops and tyrannical fighting power, he captured the imperial city and besieged Taiji.
In the East Palace, victory is at your fingertips, but the East Palace is already at the end of its battle, and its defeat can only happen in an instant.
However, Fang Jun led tens of thousands of cavalry to attack thousands of miles and suddenly appeared in Guanzhong, which suddenly changed the situation.
He previously believed that even if Fang Jun returned to Chang'an, he would be able to severely inflict heavy losses on the Guanlong rebels, but he would not be able to support the East Palace to turn defeat into victory. After all, there was still a huge gap in strength between the two sides. However, he saw with his own eyes the great strength of his cavalry, and even the elite Hu cavalry accompanying them.
, I immediately felt that the victory or defeat of both sides was no longer so certain.
After all, no matter how many people the Guanlong army has, the lack of regular troops is a fatal weakness. However, Fang Jun's soldiers are capable of hundreds of battles, and their combat power is really too strong...
Fang Jun stood in front of Chang Ping Granary with his hands folded, watching the soldiers transporting the grain and fodder. Listening to Li Yifu's words, he half-smiled but said: "County Magistrate Li has extraordinary talents and outstanding abilities. Why did he get back here and come here?"
Jingyang serves as the county magistrate?"
Previously, Li Yi Mansion had already been the Ten Thousand Years Order. Although they were all the lords of the same county, their ranks were very different, and their power and status were even more different. If you take a step further, you can directly enter the central government, and at least become the Minister of the Sixth Department, with a bright future.
