Chapter 402 Song Ting's important officials, the green forest hero, the wolf master of the north
Tianshan Yong used an iron feather crossbow arrow to shoot down the leader of the Bohai rebels in Baozhou City. When General Zuo Zheng was about to give orders to close the formation, another sharp arrow broke through the air raid and blood fountains surged.
General Zuo was pierced through the head by an arrow from Kou Zhenyuan. His right arm holding the steel sword stopped in the air. After a moment, the general fell backwards and fell from his horse.
The Bohai rebels were leaderless and in chaos. When Xiao Tang saw this, he waved the sword in his hand, and the knights behind him let out deafening shouts. They followed Xiao Tang's prancing horse and ran wildly, each with a ferocious look on his face, and then gathered into a group.
A torrent rushed towards the gate of Baozhou City!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Xiaotang, Yilancheng, Kou Zhenyuan, Tianshan Yong, four generals with men like tigers and horses like dragons. Behind them, herdsmen and horsemen fought bravely to take the lead. The Bohai rebels were defeated like a mountain. The loss of their chief general caused them to collapse into a group of headless flies.
, most of the Bohai soldiers had no intention of fighting anymore, and just scattered in all directions, scrambling for their lives.
Xiao Tang took the lead, riding his horse like a whirlwind towards the three or four hundred cavalry who were stubbornly resisting. He first chopped his knife into the chest of a Bohai general. The sound of gold and iron colliding with the sharp blade piercing flesh was heard at the same time. The general opened his mouth.
Blood spurted out, and the moment Xiao Tang drew out his sword, he had already turned over and fallen off his horse.
Suddenly, a cold spear thrust out from the side towards Xiao Tang. Xiao Tang dodged and clamped the spear with his right armpit. "Oh!!!" Xiao Tang yelled, and he clamped the spear.
The shaft of the spear was bent hard, but there was a sharp cracking sound, and the hardwood spear shaft had been pinched off by him! Xiao Tang took advantage of the situation and raised the knife and dropped it, and the tiger-tooth sword in his hand self-extended the spear to sneak attack on his horseman.
The general's right shoulder to his left rib turned into a wheel of light, and the general was immediately chopped into two pieces!
When Xiao Tang killed two more Bohai cavalrymen with lightning speed, he was already surrounded by the Bohai cavalry. Sabers, spears, and axes came from all directions to greet Xiao Tang.
Even with three heads and six arms, he is absolutely unable to resist!
At the critical juncture of life and death, Xiao Tang dwarfed and rolled down from the saddle. As soon as he landed, Xiao Tang immediately used the technique of lying on the ground with a knife. He leaned over and spun around, and the two swords in his hands "swish, swish, swish"
Swish!" turned into a dazzling circle of light that traveled quickly, and heard the mournful neighing of war horses one after another. The hoofs of more than thirty Bohai cavalry horses were cut off by Xiao Tang at almost the same moment!
Before the Bohai cavalrymen could get up from their horses and fell to the ground, Yi Lacheng led the Khitan herdsmen on powerful horses and had already rushed to them. Their iron hooves fell wantonly in the air, trampling on the chests of the fallen Bohai soldiers.
, the crisp and heart-stopping sound of bone shattering could be clearly heard on the back! The Bohai cavalry were trampled so hard that their chests were sunken and their spines were broken. They vomited blood, and then they were trampled alive by the rushing horses.
Out of meat!
Kou Zhenyuan and Tianshan Yong looked at each other. They were impressed by Xiao Tang's brave and unparalleled fighting posture. Nomads like them in the North originally advocated martial arts, and they had never seen such an unstoppable and majestic figure as Xiao Tang.
Hero. What's more, why did Xiao Tang take the risk alone and rush to the Bohai cavalry to kill them and disperse them? Why did he not want to weaken the enemy's force first to reduce the casualties of their tribesmen?
At this time, Kou Zhenyuan and Tianshan Yong suddenly had an idea in their hearts: This lord is worth sacrificing his life for!
The war was coming to an end. Most of the Bohai rebels in Baozhou City were killed by Xiao Tang and other herdsmen, leaving only a hundred cavalrymen fleeing for their lives. At this time, the garrison and officials in the city had almost been killed by the rebels, and Xiao Tang led his troops to enter.
In Baozhou City, the generals sent orders to Yilancheng, Kou Zhenyuan, and Tianshan Yong, instructing them to capture all the rogue and evil parties who were still taking advantage of the situation to cause chaos, and not to harm the people of all ethnic groups.
But a new question came: Xiao Tang led his troops to defeat the Bohai rebels in the city and captured Baozhou City instead. Should he simply occupy this place and put it under his own rule?
※
"Reporting to my lord, 567 people of our tribe were killed and 260 were seriously injured. 852 Bohai rebels were killed, another 390 were captured, and more than 800 pieces of leather armor were seized.
, more than 700 sets of bows and arrows, and 540 war horses were seized." In the Baozhou City Commander's Mansion, after counting the casualties of both the enemy and ourselves after the fierce battle and the number of captured military armor, bows and horses, Yi Laicheng reported to Xiao Tang.
At this time, Wen Huanzhang, Jiang Jing, Ou Peng, Ma Lin and other leaders on Pi Island rushed to Baozhou by ferry after hearing the news. After Jiang Jing verified the money, food and materials seized from the Bohai rebels, he also reported to Xiao Tang
Report: "Brother Xiao Tang, we have seized a total of 265,000 guan of gold and silver and 300,000 dan of grain and grass from the rebels and the scoundrels who caused trouble in the city. There are still more than 1,400 households in the city, and they have been ordered by my brother.
Each family gave a gift of grain, rice and three stones to calm the people's hearts."
Xiao Tang was sitting at the head of the hall of the Commander's Mansion. He nodded and said: "Originally, I only planned to develop my overseas island power, but unexpectedly, the Baozhou City garrison also mutinied and rebelled, and asked me to make money here.
"
Wen Huanzhang stroked his long beard, looked at Xiao Tang and said, "Now that the deal is done, does the Lord intend to take the opportunity to occupy this place?"
After Xiao Tang thought for a while, he raised his head and smiled at Wen Huanzhang: "It seems that Mr. Wen has to put more thought into taking charge of the military, political and civil affairs of Baozhou City in addition to Pidaohai Town."
The previous idea of Xiao and Tang was that no matter in the Song Dynasty or the Liao Kingdom, at this stage, they could not occupy the state capitals of the Song and Liao countries and cede territories for autonomy. It is one thing to cultivate one's own military strength in overseas islands and mountains and villages.
However, if we capture the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Song and Liao, it means openly declaring war on a huge empire.
But now Liaodong is in a different situation. Rebels from all over the country are swarming to stand on their own. It is doubtful whether the anxious Liao Dynasty will notice that this border military town has changed its banner. The Jurchen Alliance led by Wanyan Aguda is also about to raise troops to rebel against the Liao Dynasty.
, I am afraid that the Liao government will never be able to regain the control of Tokyo Road. The current situation in Liaodong is no different from the troubled times when the heroes were divided. While the Liao army was busy attacking the rebels in the interior of Liaodong, Xiao Tang took advantage of the disaster-stricken army here.
Why should the miserable refugees secretly become powerful?
It's just that under the current circumstances, it is not appropriate for Xiao Tang to reveal his name. After discussing with his subordinates, Xiao Tang decided to declare that Baozhou City was relocated after the Bohai Navy mutiny, and that Kou Zhenyuan and Tianshan Yongsuo
Baozhou was defeated by all the tribesmen. In name, Baozhou was established by the Khitan tribe, but the internal military and civil affairs were still handled by Wen Huanzhang. As for Xiao Tang's identity, it was still as if he secretly controlled the Song Dynasty.
There are several green forest cottages, but there is still a "mastermind behind the scenes".
Xiao Tang would not be as eager to proclaim himself emperor and king like Gao Yongchang and Gu Yu from Bohai. He ordered Yi Lacheng to proclaim himself the Lord of Baozhou City. After Yi Lacheng took the throne, he discussed it with Kou Zhenyuan and Tianshan Yong.
, and then paid homage to Xiao Tang: "Since we have been entrusted with an important task, we will do our best to repay the lord for his kindness. We are willing to swear on our blood that our people and the sons of all clans will worship the lord as the wolf lord of all clans."
