Chapter 156 Ren Duo Baozhong: Liang Yibu, I swear to kill you!
(7000 monthly ticket for additional updates)
Bingwu (fourteenth day) of May in the eighth year of Yuanfeng.
The morning fog on the Jialu River has just dispersed.
Renduo Baozhong had already climbed onto the wall of Xingnan Village.
Since the Nanman captured Jialu Village, in order to prevent the Nanman from continuing to advance westward, Daxia built several forts of different sizes in steep places along the valley of the Jialu River.
On the one hand, we defended against the Nanman barbarians marching straight into Shuangshan Fort.
On the other hand, it serves as an advance base in order to recapture Jialu Village.
Xingnan Village is the frontmost fortress.
However, this village is more of an outpost than a fortress.
Even if it is exhausted, it can only accommodate more than a hundred defenders!
The purpose of building it is to give early warning to the fortress behind.
Therefore, the defense is very simple, which is to build a stronghold with stones and wood on the hilltop on one side of the mountain road.
There were almost no defensive equipment and only one well.
However, now this small Xingnan Village has become a key stronghold to cover the westward retreat of Renjia's army.
Renduo Baozhong stood on the wall of the village, looking at the Jialu Village dozens of miles away, and also at the Nanman cavalry active nearby.
"Nanmanzi has been prepared for a long time..."
He has discovered at least two cavalrymen belonging to different Nanman generals.
In addition to Zi Hu, there is also the banner of Xing Zuochen.
Although the number of troops discovered was not large.
However, these are vanguards and scouts, and there must be a large army behind them!
Zihu was stationed in Taiyuan, and Xing Zuochen was stationed in Linzhou, south of Outuodi and north of Kuye River.
So, this couldn't have been rushed.
You can only prepare in advance and set a pocket trap here!
Thinking of this, Nendo Baozhong felt cold all over.
"Someone betrayed Dabai Gaoguo! Renjia was betrayed!"
He remembered that last year, his uncle, the marshal of the Great Xia Army, and the superintendent of the army, Ren Duo, were ambushed by the Jingyuan Army of the Southern Barbarians under Jingbian Village.
Even though the cavalrymen fought desperately and rushed left and right, they were unable to break through the encirclement. In the end, all the cavalrymen, including the old marshal, died in the ambush circles of the southern barbarians.
The old marshal's heads were beheaded and sent to Bianjing City.
The old marshal who once dug the Yellow River under Lingzhou City and drowned tens of thousands of Southern Barbarian troops.
The old marshal who once led an army to attack Yongle City and made the Southern Barbarian Emperor vomit blood.
He died like that in the siege under Jingbian Village.
Nendo Baozhong originally suspected that someone had deliberately betrayed his uncle!
Now, looking at the Southern Barbarian cavalry appearing in front of me.
He believes this more and more!
"Fortunately...fortunately...these Southern Barbarians are not as cunning and insidious as the Jingyuan Army..."
"Otherwise, if I, like my uncle, am forced to fortify the city and cannot conquer it for a long time, I will suddenly be surrounded by heavy southern barbarian troops..."
"I will die without a burial place!"
Saying this, Nendo Baozhong's eyes were filled with cold light.
Because who is the only person he knows who has the motivation and ability to do such a thing?
Liang Yibu!
The son and heir of the old Prime Minister is also the nephew of the Queen Mother and the Queen’s biological brother!
The old Prime Minister Ren Duo Baozhong was admired and worshiped.
That's a real hero!
Although he is a Han Chinese, he has a broad mind and lofty ambitions.
As for Liang Yibu?
A yellow-haired kid, cunning and cunning, with unfair rewards and punishments!
Last year, his uncle Ren Duo offended him because of something alone, so he was forced to attack Jingyuan Road.
As a result, they were surrounded by Nanman from Jingyuan and were trapped under Jingbian Village.
Now, the same old tricks are being used again, right?
"Liang Yibu!" Renduo Baozhong swore in his heart: "When I return to Xingqing Mansion, I swear to kill you!"
He has already thought about it.
After returning, he went to see the Wuzu and pay his respects to the Wuzu.
All the power of Renjia can be used by the Wuzu.
Use the power of Wuzu to take revenge!
As for whether Wu Zu will once again promote the revival of Han rituals and put Han people into more important positions after he takes power.
Then it has nothing to do with Renduo Baozhong!
Thinking of this, Nendo Baozhong clenched his fists.
Of course, he also knew that what he had to do now was to lead Renjia's personal soldiers to withdraw from here.
This is a dangerous thing.
When withdrawing troops in front of a large enemy army, you must be very careful.
This is why it took him two days to retreat from Jialu Village to Xingnan Village.
Because he not only had to be wary of surprise attacks by the Southern Barbarian cavalry, but also had to maintain the order of the withdrawing troops. He also had to send people to open roads in the rear to ensure the safety of his own rear.
In order to prevent the rabble from causing chaos during the retreat, Nido Baozhong even had to lead his elite troops to the rear in person.
But……
Nendo Baozhong knew that he could no longer withdraw his troops in an orderly manner as he had done in the past two days.
Not only because as time goes by, there will be more and more Nanman troops around him.
What's more, he didn't have much food left.
The whole army only has enough food and grass for seven or eight days!
Although, Shuangshanbao is still shipping food over.
But he can only transport more than a hundred stones a day.
Compared with the large army now gathered in the mountainous valleys 20 to 30 miles west of Xingnan Village, it is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket!
Therefore, he must make a choice!
As the future head of the Ren family, Ren Duo Baozhong has known since he was a child that at critical moments, he must give up those burdens!
…
The water of the Yellow River is rolling forward.
Countless mules, oxen and draft horses followed the team, carrying countless supplies of grain and grass.
The soldiers on both sides led the horses and walked slowly.
The archers who were recruited followed the army at the back.
Lu Huiqing, with a dark face, rode her horse and walked in the queue.
Today, he is less than fifty miles away from Jialu Village on the north bank of the Yellow River.
We will definitely arrive before noon tomorrow!
The selected vanguard troops from various tribes in Hedong were also gathering at Jialu Village in accordance with his general orders.
The fastest selected forward had arrived at Jialu Village this morning and was commanded by Xing Zuochen on the spot.
However, the army of Western thieves is also retreating!
According to the report, the people who withdrew the troops were very organized.
The main force was in the rear to provide cover, and cavalry was also sent to protect both wings.
Although he walked very slowly, he was like a hedgehog, which made Zihu and Xing Zuochen feel unable to eat.
If so, I'm afraid even chasing and taking a bite would be a luxury!
But Lu Huiqing doesn’t believe in evil!
He didn't believe it. How could the general in command of the Western bandits be able to bear his temper?
As long as the other party loses his temper and exposes his flaws, Lu Huiqing will pounce on him and tear off a piece of fat.
Moreover……
Even if the opponent does have a clear plan, he can retreat in the form of a hedgehog like now.
Then how much food and grass will he consume?
During the Xining period, Lu Huiqing was in the new party and was famous for being good at settling accounts and calculating gains and losses.
After arriving as commander in Hedong, Lu Huiqing brought his talent to the military.
What he believes in has never been about how many enemies he kills or how many enemies he annihilates.
What Lu Huiqing believed in was - if our army eats one stone of rice, then the traitor army must also eat one stone of rice!
Although the Song army was operating on the front line, it also needed to transport food and grass supplies from the rear.
However, the front line of the Song Dynasty was close to the grain-producing areas. If two dan of grain were sent up, at least one and a half dan of grain would reach the front line.
Where are the Western thieves?
How much is the loss when transporting grain from Lingzhou, Youzhou, Yanzhou or even Xingqing Prefecture?
What?
You said that Western thieves can take their livestock with them on expeditions and use them as military rations in emergencies.
But, did the West Thief’s cattle, horses, and sheep fall from the sky?
Therefore, this battle is not a loss in Lu Huiqing's philosophy.
Because the Song Dynasty had many people and many resources.
Not to mention one stone of grain for one stone of grain, even two stones of grain for one stone can exchange the economy of the Western thief to death!
Even so, Lu Huiqing still hated Zhang Zhijian.
After all, it was the best opportunity.
This is a great opportunity for him, Lu Huiqing, to show his face in front of the two palaces and the young master!
Now, it's all because of that bastard!
"Zhang Zhijian, please don't fall into my hands!"
Lu Huiqing couldn't help but cursed when she thought of Zhang Zhijian.
He has never been a magnanimous person!
His character, Lu Jifu, stood out among the New Party officials as being narrow-minded, vengeful, and vindictive.
If someone offends him once, he can remember it for several years.
Just as he was cursing, a Qingqi rode up and landed in front of Lu Huiqing. He knelt down and said, "My lord, General Zi, I will report to you!"
Lu Huiqing took the military report, opened it and took a look, and her expression suddenly changed.
Then he was overjoyed.
Immediately ordered his subordinates to get him paper and pen, and wrote seven words on the spot: General, please bite them!
Then he handed it to the messenger and said to him: "Can you still ride?"
The other person nodded.
Lu Huiqing burst out laughing: "Send it to General Zi before nightfall tonight!"
"I guarantee you a loan from the third class!"
The eyes of the messenger gradually flashed with brilliance.
"No!" he said loudly.
The fate of the whole family is at stake here!
