In order to save Liu Yang, Jia Fu led a thousand troops, but was besieged by more than 200,000 troops from the Five Schools.
However, after Liu Yang got out of trouble, he didn't care about Jia Fu's life or death at all, and fled with his 30,000 soldiers. Jia Fu's 20,000 soldiers turned back and tried their best to rescue Jia Fu.
The battle was fought fiercely. Commander Jia Fu fought hard, but by the end of the battle, only about 300 men were left. Jia Fu himself was seriously injured.
The most serious and fatal wound was located in the lower abdomen.
During the breakout process, Jia Fu's lower abdomen was pierced by the enemy's spear, and his intestines flowed out. During the fierce battle, Jia Fu stuffed the leaked intestines back, pulled off a piece of cloth, and wrapped it around the wound in his lower abdomen.
Continue to fight the enemy.
When the fierce battle was in full swing, Jia Fu's other troops arrived. The 30,000 reinforcements plus the previous 20,000 horsemen, a total of 50,000 Han troops, attacked the Fifth Academy Army. The Fifth Academy Army was defeated and forced to
Withdrawing, Jia Fu was relieved of the danger of being trapped.
By the time the Han soldiers found Jia Fu, Jia Fu was already dying. His whole body was covered with wounds. He was being carried by four soldiers and was already dying.
When the news of Jia Fu's serious injury reached Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu was shocked and felt filled with grief and anger. Jia Fu's importance in Liu Xiu's heart was not inferior to that of Deng Yu. Zhu and his close associates were among his favorite subordinates.
Now that Jia Fu was seriously injured and in danger, how could Liu Xiu not be anxious? He anxiously asked the captain who came to report the news: "How is Junran's injury now? Tell me the truth!"
The captain lowered his head and whispered: "Reporting to your Majesty, the general's condition... is very bad! When the villain left Zhending, the general... the general had been in a coma for two days, and the medical officers... the medical officers were helpless.
!”
Liu Xiu's figure, which was leaning forward, seemed to have been hit by a hammer, and he slowly sat back down. He looked at the captain with dull eyes, and said nothing for a long time. All the generals present looked at each other, and they all looked at each other.
His expression was solemn and his face was gloomy.
After a while, Ma Wu asked in a deep voice: "Jun Ran's military force is the most courageous among the three armies. He has thousands of troops under his command and 50,000 soldiers and horses. How could he be injured by the army of the fifth school?"
So heavy?"
The captain did not dare to hide anything, so he told Jia Fu exactly how he rescued Liu Yang and how he was trapped.
After Ma Wu heard this, he became furious and turned to Liu Xiu and said: "Your Majesty, Jun Ran is seriously injured and in danger, all because of Liu Yang! If Liu Yang hadn't been greedy for life and afraid of death, and abandoned Jun Ran without caring, how could Jun Ran be trapped by the enemy?
among?"
Liu Xiu's face was also not pretty, and his hands on the table were clenched tightly into fists. This time Jia Fu was seriously injured, and the main responsibility did lie with Liu Yang, but he really couldn't punish Liu Yang.
He was able to establish his own power in Hebei largely because of Liu Yang's support of his 100,000 Zhending army.
In addition, Liu Yang is Guo Shengtong's uncle, and is equivalent to his uncle. If he punishes Liu Yang, it will not be justified both publicly and privately.
Liu Xiu was silent for a long time, and then said to the captain who reported the news: "I heard that Jun Ran's wife is pregnant."
The captain hurriedly leaned forward and responded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Liu Xiu said seriously: "You rush back to Zhending immediately and tell Jun Ran that if Mrs. Jia gives birth to a son, my daughter will marry him in the future. If Mrs. Jia gives birth to a daughter, my son will marry him in the future!"
As soon as he said these words, everyone present was shocked and their faces were full of shock. Although Liu Xiu has never made a clear statement, in everyone's minds, the king will definitely proclaim himself emperor in Hebei in the future.
.
So the child in Mrs. Wang's belly now, if it is a boy, will be the eldest son, the crown prince after the king becomes emperor; if it is a girl, it will be the eldest daughter, the eldest princess after the king becomes emperor.
Now the king and Jia Fu have decided on the in-laws for their children, which is no small matter.
The reason why Liu Xiu made such a statement was, firstly, to make up for his guilt towards Jia Fu.
If Feng Yi was still determined, Jia Fu might not be so seriously injured this time. He was the one who temporarily transferred Feng Yi to Hanoi. He was also responsible for Jia Fu's injuries.
Secondly, he hoped to give Jia Fu the desire to survive and help him get through this difficult time safely. If he really couldn't get through this, with the marriage he promised, Jia Fu would be able to go away with peace of mind and not die on his deathbed.
At the same time, he was still worried about his own family.
The captain who reported the news looked excited, knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "I will definitely convey the king's words to the general!"
"Go quickly!" Liu Xiu waved to the captain. The latter stood up, turned around and walked out quickly.
Liu Xiu looked at the people around him and said, "You all should go down too!"
"General, please retire!" Everyone saluted Liu Xiu, and then Ma Wu said: "Your Majesty, good luck people have their own destiny. I believe that General Jia will be able to turn danger into good luck and get through the difficulties smoothly!"
Liu Xiu nodded and didn't say anything else. When everyone left, Liu Xiu was the only one left in the tent. His eyes were wet and red, and tears fell down.
Jia Fu was one of the first brothers to follow him, and he followed him in the south and north. When he attacked Wancheng, he was trapped by Cen Peng's army. Jia Fu rushed in with all his strength and protected him from the siege.
From that time on, Liu Xiu regarded Jia Fu as his arm, and he also knew that Jia Fu fought fiercely. In Jia Fu's combat philosophy, there was only forward progress, no retreat. Because of this, he always regarded Jia Fu as his opponent.
Jia Fu stayed by his side and let him stay under his nose.
This time Jia Fu was seriously injured in Zhending, which made Liu Xiu feel as if his heart had been cut severely, and his whole heart was bleeding and throbbing.
Because of Liu Yang's fault, Jia Fu was seriously injured and his life was on the line. Liu Xiu did not punish Liu Yang, but deep down, he was already dissatisfied with Liu Yang.
Liu Yang himself also knew that Jia Fu was Liu Xiu's confidant. This time Jia Fu was seriously injured trying to save him. Can Liu Xiu not resent him? wavv
At this time, a rift began to develop between Liu Xiu and Liu Yang, which also laid hidden dangers for a complete break between the two in the future.
Jia Fu was seriously injured. This was great news for the Fifth Academy Army. The entire Fifth Academy Army was extremely excited and publicized the matter.
Within a few days, You Lai's Army, the Big Spear Army, and the Five Banners Army entered Changshan County and approached the Yuan family in the county. Obviously, these three rebel armies were inspired by the serious injury of Jia Fu from the Fifth School Army, and entered Changshan in order to
Take a place in Changshan.
Again, the rebel army in Hebei is not just one Bronze Horse Army, but there are dozens of large and small armies.
Although Liu Xiu first pacified Qingdu, and then subdued Bronze Horse, Gaohu, and reconnected, it was only a drop in the bucket. The number of Hebei rebels was still very large.
The Youlai Army, the Great Spear Army, the Five Banners Army, and even the Five Schools Army were all part of the many rebel armies in Hebei.
Hebei, which was so fertile back then, was known as the granary of the world, but now it has become a miserable situation with ten villages and nine empty villages, starving people everywhere, and homeless people everywhere. It is not without reason.
Everyone went to join the rebel army. The number of the rebel army reached millions. So many people were idle. What did they eat, drink, wear, and use? Everything depended on robbing!
Obviously he was born in the rebel army, but Liu Xiu was still here in Hebei, suppressing the rebel army everywhere. This is the reason.
If the millions of rebels in Hebei cannot be completely quelled, the generals and people in Hebei will not be able to make a living, all their careers will be ruined, and there will never be peace.
The You Lai Army, the Big Spear Army, and the Five Banners Army wanted to capture the Chengyuan clan of Changshan County. This was something Liu Xiu could not tolerate. In addition, Jia Fu was seriously injured, and the Five Schools Army made more trouble in Zhending. Liu Xiu immediately decided to send troops immediately.
Go north and go straight to Changshan Mountain.
Changshan, this is the hometown of Zhao Yun. When Zhao Yun faced the enemy, he often shouted: I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan!
Changshan is not a mountain, and Zhao Yun did not run down the mountain. Changshan is a county, and it is the largest county in Jizhou. There are thirteen county towns in the county, including Yuanshi, Gaoyi and other places.
In fact, Zhending used to belong to Changshan County, but later it was sealed as a county and controlled by King Zhending for generations.
This time Liu Xiu sent 200,000 troops, of which 100,000 were his original troops and horses, and the other 100,000 were selected from the Bronze Horse Army.
The three armies of Tongma, Gaohu and Chonglian were conquered by Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu did not accept all the 200,000 soldiers and horses.
Soldiers and horses are more valuable than their elite. Liu Xiu distributed money and food to some of the old, weak, sick and disabled, and allowed them to return to their hometowns to farm.
For those who were unwilling to stay in the Han army and were unwilling to be bound by the military rules and disciplines of the Han army, Liu Xiu did not force them to stay. He still distributed money and food to them and let them leave.
After excluding these people, there were only about 150,000 people left in the 200,000 rebel army. Liu Xiu selected another 100,000 elites among them and distributed them to his generals. Then he led the generals to the north of Changshan.
The Yulai Army once defeated Xie Gong's Army. Compared with the Daqiang Army and the Five Banners Army, the Yulai Army had more troops and richer experience in battles.
After hearing the news that Liu Xiu led his army to the north, You Lai's army, the large spear army, and the Wuban army divided into 20,000 troops and went south to Zhongqiu, hoping to resist Liu Xiu's army at Zhongqiu.
Zhongqiu County is located in the southernmost part of Changshan, and it is also the only way for Liu Xiujun to go north. The first to enter Changshan was the former army led by Liu Xiu.
The former army officers and soldiers led by Liu Xiu personally had a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses, of which 20,000 were cavalry. Their combat power could be described as very strong.
On the day he entered Changshan, Liu Xiu received the news that made him extremely happy. Jia Fu had safely passed the dangerous period and his life was saved.
Liu Xiu was overjoyed when he learned about this, and all the generals present were also excited. Ma Wu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the last general said that good people have their own destiny, and your Majesty will be blessed with great fortune.
God will bless Junran!"
Liu Xiu didn't believe this. He asked the soldier who reported the news: "Who healed Jun Ran?"
The soldier said: "Reporting to your Majesty, it is Mr. Yan who has reached Zhending! I don't know where Mr. Yan got an elixir from. After giving it to the general, the general's injuries improved in just one day!"
It turned out to be Zi Ling! Liu Xiu suddenly realized. No wonder Jun Ran was able to save the day this time. It turned out to be Zi Ling's help.
Yan Guang himself is not very proficient in the art of alchemy, but Yan Guang knows many Taoist masters, including some masters of alchemy, and it is reasonable to carry life-saving elixirs with him.
Liu Xiu hadn't seen Yan Guang for a long time, and asked with a smile: "Is Ziling still in Zhending?"
The soldier said: "Mr. Yan saw that the general was no longer in danger, so he said goodbye and left. I don't know where Mr. Yan has gone."
"Oh, that's it." This is in line with Zi Ling's temperament. He shows kindness without asking for anything in return, and leaves as soon as he's done. He lives a carefree and free life.
Liu Xiu nodded, and then asked with concern: "Is Junran's injury completely healed?"
"General, he can't get up yet, but he can eat. Given time, the injury will be recovered as before!"
Liu Xiu breathed a long sigh of relief and murmured: "Ziling has done me a big favor again this time!"
