Chapter 100 Li Jing was ordered to guard Wagang, and Hedong added a new sword general
"Brother Pu opened the door, and the little brother is back." Jiao Fang and the others gradually approached the gate of the village and shouted loudly, and from afar they saw a tall figure under the light of the fire in Chengtou Mountain, not Pu Guzhong or who?
"It turned out to be Brother Jiao, did you succeed? Why don't you see the Fei leader? Pu Guzhong saw that Jiao Fang was shouting, put his mind at ease, and then saw countless carriages constantly gathering towards the city gate, and his heart suddenly became happy, but he didn't see his old brother Fei Tianxi among the people, and he couldn't help but ask casually.
"Leader Fei is supervising the grain team in the back! And that's it. Brother Pu, open the door! Brothers, I'm tired enough this night! Jiao Fang parked the horse in front of the gate of the village and shouted with a smile.
"Quick, open the gate of the walled city and let the brothers enter the city, and order them to go down and set up wine in the main hall to prepare for the celebration." Pu Guzhong leaned over and looked carefully at Jiao Fang and the others at the city gate, but in the darkness, he could only see Jiao Fang on the horse, and the rest of the people couldn't see clearly, and they were also completely defenseless.
As soon as Jiao Fang saw that the gate of the village was already open, he turned his head and gestured to Wu Tianxi and the others behind him. The first step to rein in the horse into the Wagang village, behind Wu Tianxi, Wu Kui and other generals also galloped into the city, accompanied by nearly 800 Zezhou elite soldiers each with swords and guns, a shout, rushed in.
Seeing this, Pu Guzhong, who was on the wall, changed his face greatly. immediately reacted and shouted urgently: "There is fraud, close the gate quickly!" The soldiers around him also hurriedly raised their knives and guns and ran under the wall.
It's just that now there are less than 300 people at the gate of Wagangzhai, how can they resist the elite 800 strong soldiers under Wu Tianxi in Zezhou. In a moment, most of the 300 men and horses guarding the gate of Puguzhong were captured and put down their weapons. Pu Guzhong also only lasted two rounds in the battle with Wu Tianxi, and was carried over by Wu Tianxi with one hand, and threw him on the ground to be tied up with a small school rope.
At this time, the sky was bright, although a light snow kept falling, and from time to time snowflakes fell on the eyes, faces, and lips of the soldiers, but the soldiers in Zezhou were all smiling and jubilant. At this time, all the 2,000 Zezhou elite soldiers entered the cottage, and under the guidance of Jiao Fang and Wu Kui, they had all occupied all parts of the cottage. The majestic Wagang Mountain has fallen into the hands of the Jin army in Hedong.
At noon, Lu Zhaolin and other civil officials drove to Wagang Cottage.
Under the guidance of the generals, Lu Zhaolin and others walked up the mountain. It turns out that in addition to a 3-zhang high walled wall built around the mountain under the mountain, there is a pass only a few hundred meters up the mountain. This pass is extremely steep, both sides are full of hanging walls, unclimbable, at the pass is a two-zhang high city tower, there are countless battlements on the city tower, for the archers to guard. If it weren't for the plan to open the gate under the mountain, this pass would be completely defenseless, and it would be absolutely inappropriate to attack this pass alone. After this pass continue upward, there is a plank road built on the cliff on both sides, and hundreds of archers can be laid down on the plank road, and it is also a place where a man guards the pass and ten thousand people can't open it. Lu Zhaolin and other civil officials gasped when they saw it, and they couldn't stop exaggerating that this Wagang Mountain was well defended and tightly defended, and it was difficult to overcome it if it was attacked. It is not an exaggeration to say that this Wagang cottage is the first cottage in the world of the Great Sui Dynasty.
When the group was amazed by the tight garrison facilities of Wagang, they came to the Chinese army Juyi Hall. At this time, the celebration banquet had already been set up in the hall. Lu Zhaolin and Wu Tianxi and other civil and military officers were seated according to their respective grades.
"General Wu, how much did our side lose in capturing Wagang Dazhai this time? How many people are collected? How much grain and grass are there in the village? Lu Zhaolin asked after sitting down.
"The adults have a clever strategy, and it will not take much effort to attack the mountain this time, and the soldiers have lost more than a dozen people and injured more than 50 people. 1,000 elite soldiers in Wagang were forced to land in Boxian County, and Fei Tianxi was captured. During this period, a total of more than 800 soldiers were recruited, and Pu Guzhong, the big boss of Wagang, was captured. At present, there is not much grain stored in the cottage, less than 50,000 stones, which is only enough for 2,000 people for two months. "Wu Tianxi was born as the king of the mountain and is particularly sensitive to food.
"Well, this cottage is particularly important, it is the place where my lord conquered the Central Plains, Shandong, and Jianghuai. Now all parts of the village are intact, and only need to stay in the guards to guard them. This time, there are 200,000 stones of grain sent to the village, which will be left in the village for the use of the garrison, and all the 2,000 men and horses used can also be left here as garrison soldiers. I don't know who of the generals wants to stay in this big village? After Lu Zhaolin finished speaking, he looked at Wu Tianxi and other generals.
"Huh! My lord. Wu Du commanded the general, and the general was a heavy general of the Zezhou garrison, so how could he move lightly. My two brothers are willing to lead the post of Wagang guard, do you think it can be done? Jiao Fang smiled and got up in response, and at the same time looked at Wu Kui beside him, "Kuizi, you squeak too." ”
"I am willing to guard this village with Brother Jiao Fang, please fulfill it." Wu Kui hurriedly got up and arched his hand.
"Good! There are two generals who are here to guard the town, which is in line with the intention of the government. This government will also be on the Jin King Chitose, the Zezhou Mansion will be moved to Jiyuan City, then I will be in Hebei, Wagang in Henan, can rely on each other. Lu Zhaolin said happily and loudly. I thought to myself, this tile gang is a place that the lord particularly values, and since it has fallen into his hands, he must not lose it. It's just that I still faintly feel in my heart that the weight of Jiao and Wu Er is not enough, not enough to deter people who covet Wagang everywhere, especially to deter the heroes of the green forest in the nine provinces.
The feast then began and was eaten until the end of the day. This is the snow is dead, and the sun is in the sky. After Lu Zhaolin, Wu Tianxi and others said goodbye to Jiao and Wu Erjun, they took Pugu Zhongyuan Wagang people and others to the direction of Zezhou.
It's just that Lu Zhaolin didn't know, and Yang Er, who was far away on the road to the west, didn't know that the officers and soldiers of the Hedong Jin Dynasty skillfully took the Wagang cottage and caused an uproar in the green forest road, stirring up the entire Great Sui Dynasty green forest heroes, putting themselves on the opposite side of the green forest road, and becoming the public enemy of the heroes in the world.
In the big tent of the Hedong Jin Army's Western Expedition, Yang Er read Lu Zhaolin's letter several times in detail, Yu Wenhua and others also took turns to read it, everyone was excited, Yuwen Chengdu, Wu Yunzhao and other generals were gearing up one by one, looking forward to winning a world-famous reputation on the battlefield in the coming day. Only Yang Er slowly calmed down from the initial excitement, he kept thinking about Lu Zhaolin's arrangement for the guards of Wagang Cottage, Yang Er seemed to be dissatisfied with this arrangement, and showed a heavy face. Looking at the map on the desk, he didn't speak for a long time. Yu Wenhua seemed to see that Yang Er had something in his heart, so he beckoned everyone in the tent to be quiet. The tent gradually fell silent again, but everyone felt strange.
"Your Highness, I have read Lord Lu's handwritten letter, and the lower officials feel that there is nothing wrong with Lord Lu's arrangement, I don't know why His Highness is displeased?" Yu Wenhua and the others walked up to Yang Er and asked in a low voice.
"Mr. Huaji, don't you know, Mr. Lu has taken the step of expanding the Jin army in Hedong with a trick to take Wagang Mountain, which is a good move. However, it is very inappropriate to make Jiao Fang and Wu Kui guard Wagang, and this king is worried and uneasy! Yang Er asked, lightly patted the map on the desk, slowly stood up, and said to everyone in the account.
"Lord Wang, although Jiao and Wu Er will be born in the green forest, they are willing to guarantee their hearts and minds with their lives, and they will never betray the prince." Hearing this, Xiong Kuohai hurriedly took a step forward and said. For this group of old brothers from Taihang Mountain's own subordinates, Xiong Kuohai dares to pack tickets.
"The general is bad, and this king has not the slightest doubt about the loyalty of the two. But as the general said, the two of them are from the green forest, and it is precisely at this point that it is not suitable to guard the Wagang cottage that originally belonged to the green forest road. Navagang is not comparable to ordinary green forest cottages, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a fortified city. The town guard will be a general who is not born in the green forest, so that he will not follow the righteousness of the green forest and the rules of the road to guard the city. Only after the set of green forest road is not applicable to Wagang, can Wagang cottage be indestructible and truly owned by my Hedong. Yang Er slowly expressed his worries about Wagang Cottage. He had already thought of this, and what had happened to Wagang had already surfaced in his mind, which implied that he should never hand over the Wagang land to the generals born in the green forest to guard, so didn't Xu Maogong, the old man of the bull-nosed road, use the righteousness and rules of the green forest road to make the original boss of Wagang Mountain have to take the initiative to accept his request to go up the mountain? This is the way of the bull's nose, and in the end it was calculated to death by the same group of people in the green forest. Now that they have changed to Jiao and Wu, it is inevitable that they will not be in the way of people in the green forest like Xu Maogong in the future, the rivers and lakes are sinister, and they will repeat the mistakes of Zhai Rang.
Yu Wenhua gradually understood Yang Er's concerns, and he had to admire his lord's long-term thinking. In addition, the position of the tile gang is extremely important, and it must also be garrisoned by a heavy general, and there can be no heavy general who is used to the green forest. So he turned his head to look at the few generals in the account, and when he saw his son Yuwen Chengdu, he first shook his head. Looking at the vast sea again, he also shook his head. Finally, his eyes stopped on Wu Yunzhao, nodded slightly, and then turned his head to Yang Er and suggested: "In the following officials, among the generals in Hedong, only General Wu Yunzhao is the most calm, and he can be the general of Wagang Town." ”
Wu Yunzhao was stunned for a moment, but he was speechless for a while, and hurriedly looked at Yang Er.
"General Yunzhao is my white horse righteous general, this king has already made arrangements, and he can't be moved lightly." Yang Er looked at Wu Yunzhao and said softly to Yu Wenhua.
"This king wants to send Li Jing, the general who stayed behind in Hedong, to sit in Wagang, and this person is brave and prepared. It's just that my Hedong battalion can't lack generals to garrison. It's really a book to be used when you hate less! Yang Er couldn't help sighing, feeling that he was too short of generals. I thought about Liang Shitai, and I also thought about letting Zhai Rang, who is now stationed in Jiangxian County, return to the historical trajectory to garrison his Wagang Mountain, but I feel that these two people are also insufficient, each has its own flaws, and is not an ideal candidate. Now the only competent general who can be called by the family is Li Jing, and the rest of the people are immovable.
"Your Highness, if the lower official doesn't know what to say?" Yu Wenhua lowered his head and asked in a whisper with three locks of beard, he hadn't completely thought about it for a while, but he might as well bring it up first and let Yang Er think about it.
"Mr. Huaji, please have something to say, and it doesn't hurt to make a mistake." Yang Er didn't mean to blame him at all, and encouraged him to talk about it first.
"Your Highness, this place is not far from Tongguan, but it is only a day's journey, and the backer is His Highness's greatest reliance in our army. Besides, his 50,000 troops guarding Tongguan also have a lot of funding from my Hedong, and almost all the salt and grain are allocated by my Hedong Treasury on a monthly basis, and His Royal Highness never accepts the silver money and other things sent by the king of the mountain. There are many generals under the king of the backer, why don't His Highness borrow a general from him to replace General Li Jing to garrison the camp in Hedong, which of his generals there is not a good hand at training, what does His Highness think? Yu Wenhua thought about it and said his thoughts, and only treacherous people like Yu Wenhua and such people can come up with such an idea. However, after Yang Er heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and after thinking about it a little, he felt that Yu Wenhua was really a genius, this idea not only worked in all aspects, but also was very conducive to the stability of his relationship with Yang Lin, the imperial uncle, and could strengthen the relationship with his generals. The most important thing is that his uncle does have a few fierce generals under his uncle who he wants very much.
"Yes, yes! Mr. Hua Ji is worthy of being the son of this king! This king wrote a letter to my imperial uncle, asking him to send Wei Wentong to my Hedong camp to train the army for this king. Hehe! ”
Yang Er's mood suddenly became better at this time. I opened my mouth, and my uncle had a reason to push back. Besides, the Central Plains is peaceful, there is no war in Tongguan, and the generals have no way to make meritorious contributions, and there are idle birds there. Flower knife general! The 9th good man of the Sui Dynasty, an existence that can kill Qin Qiong in seconds! Yang Er was happy when he thought about it.
That night, a letter was handed over to a family member who rushed to Tongguan overnight. Another letter was sent to Li Jing in the Hedong camp, but Yang Er explained to the messenger that he would take a detour to Shaohua Mountain to bring a sentence to Liang Shitai, let Liang Shitai go out of the mountain, and the Xinjia would go to the camp in Hedong with him, and he would be the deputy general of Li Jingzhen guarding Wagang Cottage and go to Wagang Mountain to take up his post.
The flowers are divided into two flowers, one on each branch.
Let's not say that Yang Er's army has nothing to say on the road, and continues to go to Beijing. Just said that Yang Lin, the king of Tongguan, Yang Lin had just finished patrolling the three armies this day, and led several generals to return to the camp in Tongguan City. Yang Lin hurriedly took it and opened it, and laughed loudly.
"Hehehehehe! My imperial nephew! He figured it out. The king only asked him for some grain and ate a few grains of fine salt from him, and he actually came up with the idea of my confidant general. Yang Lin said, put the letter on the table, picked up the tea, took a sip first, and gasped.
"Old prince, what did King Jin Chitose say in his letter that caused the prince to laugh?" It was still the Four Treasures General Shang Master and Apprentice who reacted quickly enough, and seeing that the old prince was not angry, he asked first.
"Huh! The letter is here, and you can see it for yourself. Yang Lin pushed the letter on the table to Master Shang's apprentice and asked him to read it for himself.
Master Shang hurriedly took the letter, raised his eyes to read it, and couldn't help laughing after reading it. The eight horse generals on the side, Xin Wenli and the flower knife general Wei Wentong, also snatched the letter and read it, but Wei Wentong's expression was extremely strange after reading the letter, where did he think that there was his name in the letter, which involved his whereabouts arrangement.
