Chapter 174: Fu Gong Shi uses soldiers to speed Tang Bi gave an unexpected gift
got up and stretched his waist and came to the outer hall, but here was another lively scene, his four henchmen and generals were gathered here, plus their respective lieutenants, there were nearly 30 people in the entire hall, who were eating meat and drinking wine and shouting boxers.
When Du Fuwei saw this scene, his stomach first made a strange sound. I thought to myself, I didn't go into the hole to wake up Lao Tzu when I opened the meal on the dog's day, and I only cared about my own happy food.
Suddenly, seeing Du Fuwei walking out of the room, the fifth child first shouted: "My lord, you have finally woken up, the brothers have gone in and called several times, but you can't afford it, so the brothers will start the banquet themselves." ”
And all the people chimed in, shouting and shouting. Du Fuwei didn't care whether it was true or not, and after he came out, he went to his main seat and sat down, and the guard Xiao Xiao hurriedly handed him a wine glass and filled it with wine, and put the roast chicken and others on his table. I hadn't eaten for a whole day, and Du Fuwei didn't care about others, he first tore off the chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth.
After eating the whole chicken leg, he asked, "Tell me!" What's going on? How did they get together? ”
"Huh! O adults! You don't know yet! Now the three of us are getting bigger. My brother and I were commanded by him all night, and we didn't close our eyes. Let San'er say it himself! The fourth elder said to everyone with a smile.
"Oh? San'er, let's listen to it. Du Fuwei looked at the third child and asked.
When the third child saw the eldest asking, he put down the wine bowl in his hand, sprayed the wine and said: "My lord, it is not how capable I am the third child, it is all arranged by the adult, and I was asked to go to the city to set fires, and I sent people to set a few fires, and only the officers and soldiers in the city cried and called their mothers." What's more, the last general saw that the adult and the little sixth son were surrounded by Qin Qiong on the mountain, and he was anxious for a while, so he called the fourth brother and the fifth brother to come over to help, and simply took advantage of the chaos in the city to make a feint to attack the city. Tang Jin, who was recuperating from his injuries in the city, did not accept deception, and issued several military orders in a row to force Qin Qiong to withdraw and return to help, did this solve the difficulty of the adults by the way? Hehe! ”
"Good boy, worthy of being my good brother, like a roundworm in the belly. Well done! Qin Qiong has a false name, courage and no strategy, this time the official army will be defeated! Come, drink, and have a glass with San'er. Sure enough, the third child used troops to retreat from the enemy according to his own wishes, and Du Fuwei was very happy in his heart. How could Du Fuwei not be happy that his brothers were able to cooperate with each other and communicate with each other now?
"This official expects that Tang Jin will not dare to send troops into the mountain before his injury is healed, and I will not have to worry about it in a short time! Then spend it with him, and see who can consume whom? ”
"In addition, the fourth and fifth people with their headquarters bypassed Fei County to Mengyin City and Fei County, this area is all mountainous, cut off the grain road for Fei County's officials and soldiers, and I can't let go of a grain truck. Do you understand? Duvowe ordered as he drank.
"Don't worry, my lord, our brothers will sneak into the mountains and forests between the two counties tonight, and never let a grain enter Fei County." The fourth and fifth got up and answered.
"Good! Liuzi'er sent a few capable men to Luxian and Zhucheng to investigate the situation on the side of the second Gongshi brother, how is it going? "The battle situation here has shown a stalemate, and generally speaking, the form is beneficial to my side, so I don't have to worry about anything, but there is no news about leading the main force to rob Donghai County so far, and Du Fuwei is a little anxious in his heart.
Fugongshi's situation is obviously much better than Du Fuwei's, since he led 20,000 horses to avoid the main road and go straight to the small road, easily occupied Yinan County, which has only 1,000 soldiers, and obtained the corresponding food supplements, leaving 2,000 men and horses to order a banner officer to guard here, so as not to cut off his retreat by the official army. He took a large group of men and horses to attack Lu County, Lu County is a big county, there are 3,000 government soldiers stationed here, fortunately, Lu County Cheng wise, directly opened the city and surrendered, Fu Gongshi also successfully occupied Lu County, after disbanding the government soldiers, and once again left a hundred household officials to lead 5,000 elites to garrison the city, to ensure that Donghai County entered the gateway of Langya County. After resting for two days in Lu County, more than 10,000 people and horses rushed to Zhucheng County, Donghai County, along the official road.
Zhucheng County Commander has 4,000 men and horses in his hands, tenaciously ascending the city to defend, but the government soldiers lack combat strength, just defend for a long time, the city was broken by the auxiliary stone, the county order saw that the situation was not good, abandoned the family to escape from the north gate, and went to the county capital Gaomi City to report the emergency.
Up to this time, the news of Xu Yuanlang and Du Fuwei of Langya County attacking Donghai County spread, and the Gaomi City County guarded the whole army for defense, and the second was to send the emergency document to Tangbi in Jinan Prefecture, in order to get Tangbi reinforcements to arrive.
It's just that Tang Jin and Qin Qiong, who are far away in Fei County, in the middle of Langya County, didn't know about it, and they were still waiting for the military rations to be delivered, and then they went into the mountains again to search for Xu Yuanlang's remaining Du Fuwei Liukou.
The two battle reports sent to Tang Bi in Jeju Mansion one after the other almost made Tang Bi faint.
The first battle report was delivered by Tang Jin from Langya County. The content in it is completely different from the good news of the previous days, and it turned out to be the content of consecutive defeats. A few days ago, after receiving the news of the death of the bandit leader Xu Yuanlang, Tang Bi also predicted that the battle against the bandits would end soon, but now the situation has completely changed. What gave Tang Bi more headaches than the defeat was that the battle against bandits had evolved into a tug-of-war with no results in sight. The entire Langya bandits were all hidden in the mountains, and there were few officers and soldiers who entered the mountains to search for them.
When Tang Bi was worried about the suppression of bandits, the urgent express from Gaomi City in Donghai County brought him another bad news like a thunderbolt from the sky. It turned out that only a small part of the Langya bandits were left in the mountains to deal with the official army, but most of them rushed into Donghai County, and conquered several cities one after another, and the current Gaomi City is also in danger. If Gaomi is not guaranteed, the entire Donghai County will be divided into east and west from top to bottom.
"Quickly call Qualcomm to pass the government meeting." Tang Bi frowned in the face of the chaotic situation, and after thinking about it, he had no idea, so he had to ask people to go to Gao Keren, a staff member in the mansion, to come over and discuss.
A moment later, a thin man in his 40s who looked like a talent came to Tang Bi's case.
"My lord, what can I do with the house?" Gao Keren looked at Tang Bi, who was looking down at the map, and whispered.
"Oh! Mr. Gao, you're here. Here's a letter for you to read before you go. Tang Bi looked up and saw that his henchman was coming, so he casually handed him the express report from Gaomi City on the case.
"Huh? There is such a thing! The Langya bandits have spread to Donghai County, and the bandits are so powerful that they have reached Gaomi City. Adults should send troops to encircle and suppress as soon as possible! Don't delay. Gao Keren was taken aback after reading the secret letter, and hurriedly shouted to Tang Bi.
"Hey! Mr. Gao! It's not that you don't know, my 20,000 elite soldiers are now suppressing bandits in Langya Fei County, and now they are holding each other, how can they be transferred back in a hurry? The rest of the soldiers and horses are stationed in various places, and they can't move at all! Tang Bi said to Gao Keren with a wry smile.
According to the book, there are more than 30,000 people besieging Gaomi City, and the guards of the city are only 6,000, and they lack combat readiness. If the officials and troops of the county are transferred to relieve the siege, the Langya bandits will inevitably resurge! This ---" Gao Keren said as if he was talking to himself, holding three locks of goat short beards and walking back and forth in front of Tang Bi.
"In addition to the 20,000 mobile soldiers and horses of Langya to suppress bandits, the rest of the tens of thousands are stationed in the west to guard against Wang Shichong and the Hedong Jin army in the north, especially the people and horses stationed along the river in the north can not move at all, if it moves, Wu Tianxi of Weicheng, Hebei Province is bound to take the opportunity to cross the river to the south, and the Jin army in Jizhou can be as many as 150,000! Alas! The old man is worried about this! Tang Bi slapped the table and almost cried out in frustration. He now suspects that he has been too hasty in sending troops to Langya.
"My lord, according to the lower officials, it is better to borrow troops from Donglai."
"Huh? Are you confused, sir? Nalai Prefecture Wang Bo can't wait to weaken the power of this government, how can he send troops to help me? ”
"My lord, if he had been in the past, he would not have sent troops to save my Donghai County, but this time is different."
"What do you mean by that, sir?"
Gao Keren didn't answer immediately, but turned around twice, as if he was re-verifying his judgment. Then he said slowly to Tang Bi: "My lord, that Wang Bodonglai has 60,000 soldiers and horses, and he usually does not interfere with my Jinan Mansion. But the lord is still the official of Qi County who was personally sealed by the Great Sui Imperial Court, and he is on it. Morally, adults can call on their soldiers. When he said this, he saw Tang Bi shaking his head uncontrollably, obviously not agreeing with this statement.
Seeing Tang Bi shaking his head, Gao Keren couldn't help but smile, and then said, "Hehe! It is not possible for the adults to transfer other soldiers, but if the adults report the bandits of Langya and Donghai to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, the situation will naturally be very different, what do you say, my lord? ”
"Sir, are you saying that this mansion will go directly to His Royal Highness Yang Guang, the King of Jin, who is now touring in Laizhou, to ask for soldiers?" Hearing this, Tang Bi stared at Gao Keren with wide eyes and shouted.
"Exactly! My lord, now Donglai County is named Wang Bo, and it has actually become the territory of Yang Guang, the king of Jin. It is said that the two men partnered to set up a seagoing shipyard and build dozens of large seagoing vessels. The king of Jin has sent officials from Luzhou, Hedong to take over the government offices of Donglai, Wang Bo is not only not annoyed, but has promised his sister to the king of Jin as a concubine, which shows that the two families have become one. Donghai County is close to Donglai, it is the dependence of lips and teeth, it is the territory of his Yang family, and the people are also the people of the Great Sui. The adult can write a letter to Yang Guang, the king of Jin, with a strong statement, urging him to send troops to assist the adults to eliminate the bandits in the East China Sea. Gao Keren shook his head and said something so that the corners of his mouth rolled over the foam, Tang Bi couldn't help but nod and ponder when he heard it, and he was speechless for a while.
"Sir! Although this plan is good, but Yang Guangfei, the king of Jin, is an idle person, and the government is afraid that he will come and go, and it will be easy to invite God to send God! Tang Bi thought for a while and then said softly.
"My lord, is it possible that he dares to invade and occupy the land of the Lord without permission. The land of the world is not the king's land, originally this East China Sea belonged to his Yang family, can he watch it being occupied by bandits? Xia Guan saw that at best, when the bandits were eliminated, he would ask for benefits from the adults on behalf of Wang Bo. "What the Confucian literati thought in this era was still very different from what the feudal lords thought in their hearts. In his eyes, Tang Bi was a courtier of the Yang family, but he was just an official who helped the Yang family dynasty defend the territory. Where is there such a thing as land grabbing?
"That's it! As long as His Royal Highness the King of Jin sent troops to exterminate the bandits in the East China Sea for the government, the government did not let him be busy in vain, and assigned the county of Jiaozhou, which is closest to Donglai County, to him Wang Bo's jurisdiction. Thank you sir for your advice! After that, Tang Bi got up and thanked this staff member, Mr. Gao Keren.
"The official said goodbye and waited for good news." After Gao Keren hurriedly returned the salute, he walked out of the Shuai Mansion with a proud swing, and almost hummed a little song.
This Gao Keren is also a scholar who failed to participate in the imperial examination, and his name has long been under Yang Su's name. Voted under Tang Bi also relied on Yang Su's recommendation. Tang Bi didn't have a suitable official position here for a while, so he let him make his own general judgment, that is, the role of a senior counselor in the inner government, pay him a salary, and let him fill it when he had a suitable position.
Two days later, the letter from Tang Bi was placed on Yang Er's desk. Yang Er, who read the letter, felt a ripple in his heart, he didn't expect that the treacherous and cunning Tang Bi would give him such a letter asking for help. I am the master of this chaos, I originally wanted to profit from the chaos, the more chaotic the better, but I didn't expect that Tang Bi's move at this time would simplify the situation in one fell swoop. Yang Er couldn't suppress the urge to laugh maniacally.
"Zhong Jian, go and invite Lord Wang and Mr. Li Taizhi here, something is wrong." Yang Er shouted at Zhong Jian outside the door. Now Yu Wenhualong, who is in the guard, was specially transferred by Yang Er to be in charge of inland waterway shipping matters, and Zuo Tiancheng cooperated from the side, and neither of them was in the house. The only people who can be on call at any time are Zhong Jian and Chuchen, and Chuchen will not do this errand, only ask Zhong Jian, a fat man, to pass the word.
Three moments later, Wang Bo and Li Taizhi appeared in Yang Erfu. At this time, Chuchen had already brought the two generals who were patrolling the mansion, Lai Hu'er and Luo Shixin, to the mansion to discuss together.
"Brother Wang, Master Li, you can read this letter first." Yang Er picked up Tang Bi's letter and handed it to Chuchen beside him, Chuchen took it and walked to the side and handed it to Wang Bo on the seat, Wang Bo quickly read it and passed it to Li Taizhi on the side.
"Your Highness, this Tang Bi actually wants me to send troops here to help him? This has never happened before! After reading the letter, Wang Bo said to Yang Er, he felt very unbelievable about it.
Yang Er hadn't answered, only to hear Li Taizhi laughing out loud on the side. Yang Er also showed a bright smile, only Wang Bo was still puzzled.
"Lord, this is exactly when the sleepiness comes, someone will send a pillow! Hehe! How can such a good deal not be made? "Li Taizhi is different from Wang Bo, his own father-in-law's thoughts are all involved, naturally he has the same mentality as Yang Er, and he sings very happily!
"Brother Wang, this Tang Bi has sent you all the places in Jiaozhou, is there any reason to push it out?" Yang Er said softly to Wang Bo, making Wang Bo even more confused, and hurriedly answered: "Your Highness, it's okay for me to send troops here, but bandits are rampant there, if you guess right, Gaomi City may have already been obtained by bandits." Gaomi is the seat of the East China Sea County, with high walls and a moat. If there are no tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to take it, I am afraid that it will become a tiger like Langya County! Wang Bo didn't know that Yang Er was the operator of this big chess game, so he said his thoughts worriedly.
"Huh! Brother Wang doesn't have to be anxious, this time it is enough to use 20,000 soldiers with you! As soon as the Donglai soldiers arrived, the gate of Gaomi City suddenly opened. Yang Er said with a smile, and Li Taizhi was also smiling.
