Chapter 1783 Honey-mouthed sword, who wants to hit whom?
Li Qiong, the general under Liu Guangshi, was born in Linzhang, Xiangzhou. He was originally a Zhusheng in his early years, but due to the rampant banditry in Xuanhe years, he was able to master the skills of assassination, cavalry and archery, and became well-known in the local area. Then the Jin army invaded the Central Plains. , Li Qiong then went to seek refuge with Mr. Zong Zezong, who not only persuaded the green forest thieves to resist the foreign invaders, but also recruited brave soldiers from all over the country to prepare for the war against the Jin Dynasty.
It's just that when Xiao Tang met Zongze and Zhang Suo, Li Qiong only commanded a few hundred sergeants. He was not really a high-ranking general with great achievements and fame. He only met some of Xiao Tang's leaders. , but compared to the great thieves Yang Jin, Wang Shan and other Song army commanders such as Yang Jin and Chen Cui who took orders in front of Zongze's tent and each commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, Li Qiong's qualifications and reputation at that time were still not as good as Not very conspicuous.
Originally, Li Qiong obeyed Zongze's orders and fought with all his might. When he fought with Chen Xizhen's subordinates under Liu Yu of the puppet Qi Dynasty, who threw gold soldiers and horses to fight, he also won a lot of meritorious deeds. He originally thought that he would continue to follow him. Mr. Zong took advantage of the battle to cross the Yellow River north and regain the territory to accumulate military exploits and realize his long-cherished wish to make great achievements and establish a great cause. Unexpectedly, the Song Dynasty actually agreed to the Jin people's request for a temporary truce. The two husbands, Zongze and Zhang Suo, Most of the soldiers and horses gathered by King Qin to resist the Jin Dynasty were recruited by other military divisions, or were dismissed. As a result, Mr. Zongze became very worried, angry, and died suddenly. Mr. Zhang Suo was also suppressed by the peace faction in the court. , was dismissed from his official position and relegated to Guangnan...
However, Zongze's army of King Qin's anti-Jin soldiers and horses were either recruited or dismissed, which was the beginning of a turning point in Li Qiong's life.
Unwilling to serve only as a guard and a battalion commander, such a low-ranking general was recruited by the Song Dynasty Military Division. Li Qiong temporarily left the army and went south to the areas under Huainan's rule. He was dragged into the army again. A team of tens of thousands of people. However, although Li Qiong still raised the banner of resisting the Jinlu foreign invaders, he actually invaded Huainan Road and ruled Xiazhou County. Although he was doing strongman work of robbing homes and houses, his attitude towards the Song army at that time seemed to be still Have some reservations.
Until they bumped into Liu Guangshi's troops who were ordered to suppress Jingdong and rebelled against the rebels in Huainan, the two hit it off. Li Qiong immediately agreed to lead more than ten thousand troops under his command to surrender to Liu Guangshi, and Liu Guangshi also He did not hesitate to recruit as many bandits as possible to expand his army. Not only could he ask for credit from the imperial court, but he could also use his military strength to prop up his appearance of leading a group of soldiers. After Li Qiong transferred to Liu Guangshi's command, he also established an unstoppable position. With little military exploits, he became the right-hand man of the nobles in his army. With his shrewd judgment, he went from a low-ranking general commanding only a few hundred soldiers to becoming the leader of rogue bandits with tens of thousands of people, and finally was awarded the title of Huainan. The magnificent turn of the East Road soldiers and horses...
Therefore, compared with the hatred of the country and the family for the invasion of the Central Plains by foreign invaders, Li Qiong's utilitarianism is more important. He wants to take advantage of the current world and do his best to climb up in the officialdom. For Li Qiong, That's what matters.
Seeing the outline of Juye Castle, the headquarters of Jeju, becoming more and more clear in front of him, Li Qiong looked stern and secretly said in his heart that the man was looking for a prince immediately. Wealth and honor were obtained in danger, and it was rare for Mr. Liu Guangshi to be too careful with his troops in the past. After receiving the imperial order, it seems that he saw the emptiness behind Jingdong under Xiao Tang's rule, and was willing to obey Jun's order... In order to make contributions in the army, after all, you have to tuck your head in your belt and fight for it. Not to mention the people under Xiao Tang's command The leaders who were guarding Jeju didn't know that the imperial court could no longer tolerate their master taking advantage of the situation, so they killed him by surprise, and waited until Liu Xianggong and Wang De's men commanded the superior troops and horses to cover up and attack them. This is the arrangement The layout will definitely work!
When Li Qiong was thinking about it, he suddenly saw a group of soldiers and horses galloping towards him from the direction of Juye City. The gloomy anger in his brows suddenly disappeared. When the soldiers and horses of the Biao rebel army came closer, Li Qiong's face was already filled with anger.
With a warm and kind smile, he saluted the leader of the rebel army who came on horseback and said loudly: "You guys have worked hard! The last general Li Qiong, following the order of Liu Xianggong, escorted and rewarded a soldier from the Marshal's Office.
We should have wine, meat and food. In fact, I have not admired all the powerful and righteous men under Xiao Shuai for a long time. Now I have to trouble you all to come to greet you. It is also very scary! But you don’t know that you have a high surname? Please allow me, Li Qiong, to have some friendship.
Get acquainted with all the powerful people who drove away the Jinluo foreign invaders and the traitors of the Qi Dynasty!"
The leader of the rebel army who was the first to ride his horse in front of him tightened the reins and stabilized his horse. Then he bowed on the horse and returned the salute: "But General Li is being too modest. I am the commander of Xiao Shuai's command."
Li Ying, the general of the Yang Army, and Lei Heng, the lieutenant general of the army, came to greet their colleague Pao Ze. Previously, the military academy of your army came to report that General Li would be troubled to escort the reward and baggage. Due to the sentiment and reason, he should leave the city and wait for the prime minister.
Welcome."
Li Ying, the general of the Yingyang Army appointed by Xiao Tang, originally came from a wealthy family in Lijiazhuang, Dulonggang under the rule of Jingdong Road. However, his family property and foundation had long been burned to nothing, and he went to join the thieves Chao Gai and Song Jiang.
The leader of the Shuibo Liangshan Luocao was a thief...but he would be a tiger with wings and thunder. However, an infantryman in Yuncheng County's Yamen District was born, but he committed a murder by killing the concubine of the magistrate's best friend, and then fled and surrendered.
After going to Liangshanbo, although he was recruited by the bandit leader Song Jiang, he still surrendered to Xiao Tang... These two people were both from Jingdong Road. Compared with Shen Linchong, Han Shizhong, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, and Wu Song,
Shi Bao... the brave generals who killed him are not the extravagant figures with high achievements and fame under Xiao Tang. It should not be difficult to restrain the two of them in one fell swoop with the troops under his command...
Li Qiong still had a kind smile on his face, but he was secretly thinking about it in his heart. When he was talking about the origins of some of Xiao Tang's leaders that he had discovered earlier, Lei Heng, who traveled on horseback, could do it.
When he came to Li Ying's side, he looked at the chariots arranged in a long snake shape, and then looked left and right at the large number of Song army generals escorting the baggage, and suddenly asked: "General Li has worked hard all the way, and for a long time
Wen Xun is the capable officer who promoted Liu Xianggong, the imperial envoy and the inspector of the capital, so why bother General Li with such a trivial matter as escorting and rewarding our troops? What’s more, the foreign trouble of Jinluo on Jingdong Road has been eliminated. I’m not afraid of it.
There are so many troops escorting the baggage this time, so this is actually a mass mobilization."
Hey! After all, he was the head of the county government. Zha Mo has been doing detective work for a long time, and now he is suspicious!
Li Qiong thought in his mind, and then said with a smile as usual: "It was all thanks to the bravery and bravery of all the people under Xiao Shuai's command that although the Qing Dynasty expelled the Jinlu Tatars from the two roads east of Jingdong, bandits are now swarming in Shandong and Huainan, and they are everywhere.
For the sake of disaster, although Xianggong Liu tried his best, he still couldn't annihilate them all. According to the imperial envoy Si Tanma Bao, there were several rogue bandits in Huainan who were not to be underestimated in order to escape the suppression and fled.
Entering the boundary between the east and west roads of Beijing, you will be rewarded with a large number of supplies for your troops. If the thieves know about the news, they will probably covet and have evil intentions. Therefore, they will send out many dispatches, and the military commander will escort his troops and horses as a precaution.
As for the last general, Ai, who was in charge of the troops and horses on the Huainan East Road, he was promoted entirely based on the appreciation of Xianggong Liu. Compared with the group of heroes who followed Xiao Shuai to resist the Jinlu foreign invaders, what was he? Now I took the opportunity to personally lead the troops and horses. It’s also because I got to know all these heroes. After all, we are all colleagues, so we can take better care of each other in the future.”
Li Qiong said sweet words as if he had honey on his lips. Li Ying and Lei Heng seemed to be very happy after hearing this. After saying a few more words, they led Li Qiong, the marching horse general, to Juye City. Li Yin. The atmosphere between the two parties seems to be harmonious and harmonious on the surface, but both of them have the same thoughts in their hearts: Now it seems that you guys must have fallen into a trap!
