Xingzhou coach Guo Guangbi was sitting on the point-calling platform, his facial features were as sharp as a knife and an axe, with no expression at all. What he saw really made him unhappy. Not only was the training team not in order, but the soldiers' helmets were crooked and showing fatigue, and they even couldn't even
Even the war drums are weak, how can we talk about fighting in such a state? Although Guo Guangbi is disappointed in his heart, he is not angry. He does not blame these men, he can only blame himself. He lacks food and clothing, and even his stomach is not full, so how can he talk about fighting power?
Guo Guangbi could no longer stand the performance of these men. He stood up slowly and walked slowly down the general platform. When his son Guo Shaoxiong saw his father leaving suddenly, he thought something big had happened, so he quickly followed him and whispered
: "Father is handsome!"
Guo Guangbi raised his hand to signal him not to follow him.
The drill was still going on, but Guo Guangbi had already left the school grounds. After leaving the school grounds, his men brought his yellow gelding. Guo Guangbi got on his horse and was about to leave the city to get some air. He saw a warrior galloping towards him.
He turned over, dismounted, knelt on one knee and said, "Commander Qi, Mr. Xie is back."
When Guo Guangbi heard the news, his frown instantly relaxed. He raised his whip and slapped the horse on the buttocks. The horse neighed and ran towards the commander's mansion.
After Xie Jian left Dongliang County, he went directly to Yongdu. During this time, he worked tirelessly to travel around the country, and he obviously lost weight. When Guo Guangbi came back, he was eating, and when he heard Guo Guangbi's footsteps, he stood up hurriedly.
Stand up and salute respectfully.
Guo Guangbi stepped forward and held his arm and said, "Sir, there is no need to be polite. Eat quickly. If you have any questions, we will talk about it after you have finished your meal."
Xie Jian nodded, feeling warm in his heart. Although Guo Guangbi was cruel and murderous, he was really kind to himself. Since following him, he has been deeply used by him and has never had any doubts. Treat each other with the courtesy of a scholar, and treat him as a scholar.
He who knows his best will die. Although Xie Jian is not optimistic about Xingzhou's future, in order to repay Guo Guangbi's trust, he will devote himself to death.
Xie Jian finished the gruel in the bowl and took the towel handed by Guo Guangbi himself to wipe the corners of his lips.
Guo Guangbi couldn't wait to ask: "How?"
Xie Jian smiled and said: "When I went to Yongdu, my subordinates not only met General Li Chenzhou, but also got an audience with Emperor Dayong through his introduction."
When Guo Guangbi heard what he said, he couldn't help but feel a little more expectant in his heart, and whispered: "Is it because of the recent increase in troops in Nanyang Water Village?"
Xie Jian shook his head and said: "The increase in troops in Nanyang Water Village has nothing to do with this matter."
Guo Guangbi was startled when he heard this: "What?"
Xie Jiandao: "Hu Xiaotian rejected our request to join forces. His real intention was to reap the benefits of the fishermen. He not only wanted to capture Yunyang, but also wanted to capture Xingzhou as well."
Guo Guangbi snorted coldly: "It's simply wishful thinking!" In fact, he had been mentally prepared for this, and he would do the same thing if he were it.
Xie Jiandao: "In his eyes, we are worthless, but Dayong does not think so. They have agreed to allocate food, grass and military resources to us and give us all possible support."
Guo Guangbi asked: "Why are you so kind?" There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Guo Guangbi knows this truth very well, and Dayong will not help them for no reason. There must be their purpose behind this assistance.
Xie Jiandao: "The Dayong side put forward two conditions. One is to capture Yunyang and dedicate Yunyang City to them as a token of surrender. The other is that the commander-in-chief must agree to bring all his brothers to accept the recruitment. From then on, Xingzhou will be merged into the territory of Dayong.
.”
When Guo Guangbi heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and slowly closed his eyes. This meant that he was going to bow his head to Dayong. Although he had expected this, when he actually heard Xie Jian say it,
He still felt like he had been slapped in the face. Although he had worked hard over the years, he was still the overlord of one party. He had once had a great situation when he raised his arms and everyone responded. Unfortunately, this situation did not last long. The rapid increase in troops made it difficult for him to do so.
He soon became stretched thin in terms of military supplies. If he continued to persist, these brothers would soon face a situation where they could not reveal the blame. But surrendering to Dayong would mean that he would never have the chance to dominate the world in this life.
Xie Jian looked at Guo Guangbi with worry. He still knew his lord. Guo Guangbi also had a proud heart hidden under his cruel and bloodthirsty appearance. It was really a shame for him to lower his pride and surrender to Dayong.
It was an extremely difficult thing. Xie Jian was worried that Guo Guangbi would refuse and refuse this only opportunity. Not everyone thought they still had value.
Guo Guangbi whispered: "You want us to win Yunyang with our blood and sweat and give them a certificate of surrender? What if we can't win Yunyang?"
Xie Jian said nothing. If they could not capture Yunyang, their sacrifice would be completely in vain, and they would naturally no longer have any value in Dayong's eyes.
Guo Guangbi took a few steps slowly: "The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows, Hu Xiaotian is a fierce tiger, and Dayong is a hungry wolf. None of them are good things. They want to swallow us with our skin and bones."
Xie Jiandao: "Dayong has recently increased its troops in Nanyang Water Village, and Dakang has also increased its troops in Yangquan. They are obviously echoing each other, and there has been a lot of news recently that Dakang and Dayong have decided to join forces to deal with Hu Xiaotian."
Guo Guangbi snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid Hu Xiaotian won't be that easy to deal with."
Xie Jiandao: "Yunyang is everyone's goal. The reason why this rumor came out is that I think it is fake to join forces to attack. It is real to want to put pressure on Hu Xiaotian in this way, so that he does not dare to act rashly. Although Yunyang
It’s a piece of fat meat, but not everyone can just go up and take a bite.”
Guo Guangbi asked: "When will the food and grass that Dayong promised us be delivered?"
Xie Jian said: "Preparations have begun. The first batch of grain and grass will be in place within seven days, and will be delivered one after another in the future."
Guo Guangbi said: "No matter what happens in the future, we must first capture Yunyang. Whoever gives us food, we will give the city of Yunyang to whoever." He paused and then said: "Li Tianheng of Xichuan has sent someone to send news. They will be there in the future."
A war will break out within half a month, and we hope that we will fully cooperate."
Xie Jian said: "Su Yuchi is not a simple person. This battle may be much more difficult than expected."
A force of 5,000 soldiers and horses entered Dongluocang. The city wall of Dongluocang had been repaired. It stood like a huge bunker in the southeast of Shaoyuan City. Chang Fanqi climbed onto the wall of Dongluocang again, feeling uncomfortable in his heart.
Excited by his reputation, he used to be the guard of this city. Hu Xiaotian's ability to hand this place back to him is enough to prove his trust in him. The main task of coming this time is to create a crisis and create a sense of crisis for Dayong.
They want to attack Shao Yuan's illusion.
Today's Dongluocang is no longer an important grain and grass town. Hu Xiaotian once agreed with Dayong to borrow Dongluocang for five years. Half of the time has passed in a flash. Chang Fanqi doesn't know whether Hu Xiaotian really wants to return this place to Dayong. Dongluocang is not
It is to guard the choke point of Dayong's southern advance. It can be said that the fundamental reason why Hu Xiaotian was able to establish a foothold in the lower reaches of the Yongjiang River was because he controlled Dongluocang. If Dongluocang is returned, then Hu Xiaotian will face no danger
The defensible situation exposed Dongliang County to Dayong again.
As soon as Chang Fanqi arrived in Dongluocang, an old friend came to ask for a meeting. This person was his former lieutenant Huang Xincheng, who was also Chang Fanqi's previous best friend. Huang Xincheng had also been demoted to civilian status after the battle in Dongluocang.
However, he was lucky enough to save his life, and now his family lives in Shaoyuan, but he has not been hired yet.
This time I came to see you as an old friend.
Chang Fanqi invited Huang Xincheng into his mansion. When old friends meet, they inevitably have a drink. After three rounds of drinking, both of them became slightly tipsy. Huang Xincheng slowly lowered his wine glass and said, "Brother Fanqi, I thought Dong
After the battle in Luocang, you and I will never see each other again in this life, but we didn’t expect to be able to sit and drink together, what a twist of fate!"
Chang Fan said curiously: "It is indeed fate. Although we are friends now, we are already our own masters." He was wary of the purpose of Huang Xincheng's trip and did not believe that Huang Xincheng appeared in Dongluocang at this time.
Purely by chance.
Huang Xincheng chuckled and said: "Brother Fanqi, don't think too much. I am just a commoner now and don't have any tasks. The main reason I came here this time is to meet you, an old friend, and to renew our old friendship."
Chang Fanqi raised his glass and clinked another glass with him and said: "My original choice has affected many friends and brothers, but since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot have both, and for the sake of my mother's life, Fanqi could only do that.
"
Huang Xincheng said: "Qin Yangming is still his general, and it is only our brothers who are affected. I will not hide it from you. Qin Yangming forced me to come here to see you this time."
A bitter smile appeared on Chang Fanqi's lips. In fact, he had already guessed it since Huang Xincheng came here.
Huang Xincheng said: "You and I are brothers, and I won't mince words with you. Qin Yangming threatened the lives of my family and asked me to come here. There is a letter here that he asked me to give to you."
Chang Fanqi took the letter and burned it on the candle without even looking at it.
Huang Xincheng said in astonishment: "Why don't you read what's written in it?"
Chang Fanqi shook his head and said: "There is no need to read it, and the content of this letter is not important."
Huang Xincheng sighed and said: "That's right, it's nothing more than some words to persuade you to surrender."
Chang Fan said curiously: "If I am not wrong, someone has already spread the news of your arrival in Dongluocang to my lord's ears."
Huang Xincheng blinked and said in confusion: "Did Hu Xiaotian send someone to monitor you?"
Chang Fan said curiously: "How could my lord be upright and do such a petty thing? Qin Yangming asked you to send me a letter. It was a lie. His real intention was to use this matter to create doubts. I think he has already asked you to meet me."
The news reached Dongliang County."
Huang Xincheng regretted it and said: "It's all my fault. I hurt you. I shouldn't have come."
Chang Fan said curiously: "You made an unintentional mistake. Qin Yangming can't harm me. Even I can see through his clumsy tricks. How can I hide it from my lord?"
