The forward Han Gon marched very quickly, and that night he had already left the north of Huangluling Pass for dozens of miles, until he reached the foot of Guji Mountain, and encountered a fierce battle. The forces of the two warring sides were unknown, and the sky was about to get dark, so Han Gon did not intervene rashly, but led his thousands of horsemen to climb the gentle slope to watch the battle.

Under the afterglow, the sky and the earth are dim. Han Gon stationed on his horse, and saw from afar that there was a general riding a yellow horse, wearing a white robe, holding a spear, clashing back and forth in the chaotic array. After a while, the battle was over, and the defeated side only had 100 horsemen left to seize the road, and the yellow horse and white robe general did not pursue, but followed the left and right servants to shake the order flag, and their people quickly regrouped, and lined up not far from the gentle slope, waiting for the battle.

Han Gon couldn't see the opposite banner clearly for a long time, and it was difficult to distinguish between the enemy and me, so he also sent an order to be on guard, and sent Meng Aocao to rush out with more than ten horsemen to test it, and Yang Zhaofeng and Hu Keshou each had dozens of horsemen to sweep the formation left and right.

Seeing this on the other side, the main force also did not move, and the yellow horse and white robe took the lead, and only a few horses rode out to meet him. Meng Aocao held the bow in his hand, and shouted first: "Daming Huo Shanbo is edicted to beg for thieves!" Han Gon's title is "Huo Shanbo".

The yellow-horse and white-robed general was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then replied: "My brother, don't do it." ”

Meng Aocao was cautious, and still took out the feather arrow from the quiver on the side of his right leg and put it on the riding bow, just in case. But in an instant, a cold light flashed in the corner of his eye, and his left hand holding the bow was immediately sore, so that he couldn't hold the bow and arrows, and watched them fall to the ground. Looking up in fright, it was the yellow horse and white robe who preemptively released an arrow between the lightning and flint.

"If he wants to kill me, he will kill me with that arrow." Meng Aocao's heart was beating like a drum, and he was secretly thinking.

"Brother, don't be impatient, I'm here the soldiers and horses of Jiang Jiu, the chief soldier of Datong! The yellow horse and white robe general was afraid of arousing Meng Aocao's anger, and shouted to explain, "I just killed the thief in front." "His army was only four or five hundred horsemen, and the fierce battle was weak, and the night was low and the four fields were blurred, so he did not want to clash with Han Gon Qiancai again.

"If you tell the truth, come alone and follow me to Huo Shanbo." Meng Aocao said stiffly.

When the soldiers and horses on the opposite side heard this, they were slightly disturbed, but when they heard the yellow horse and white robed general, they asked, "Who is Huo Shanbo?" ”

"The Daming Shanxi Front Army recruits the forward general Han Gon." Meng Ao Cao Hong said, and at the same time cocked his thumb, pointing to the Ming Army Flag that was still vaguely recognizable dozens of steps behind him, "Do you see the words on the flag clearly?" ”

At this time, Han Gon in the rear found that Meng Aocao had been holding each other for a long time, and had let Yang Zhaofeng and Hu Keshou lead the crowd to trot forward slightly, forming a three-sided clamping situation. The yellow horse and white robe will look at it, discuss it with the soldiers and horses on the left and right for a moment, and reply: "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

Meng Aocao thought to himself: "This man is a little bold. "Don't say much, turn around and leave. Turning his head and squinting, the heavy sunset shone a slanted shadow, and followed up with the formation.

When the yellow horse and white robe will see Han Gon, the night is almost closed. Han Gon let the left and right cheer up the dead wind to illuminate, under the light, he raised his eyes and saw that the yellow horse and white robe in front of him were about thirty years old, with a fair complexion and no beard, and eyebrows like a lying silkworm, and he was a talent.

"Under the command of General Xia Zhenshuo and the chief military officer of Datong, Jiang Xuan, Wang Fu's ministers, were ordered to attack the thieves." The yellow horse and white robe will report to his family, "General Han, where did your army come from?" "He was brave and ready to break through at any time, but seeing that Han Gon had no intention of harming him, he felt a lot more at ease.

"The first emperor was killed, and the new emperor ascended the throne in Huguang and divided his troops to fight the thieves. Han was subordinate to Hou Dagui, the head of the Shanxi army, and the pioneer came here. Chief Hou's brigade of soldiers and horses was stationed elsewhere. ”

Wang Fu's ministers were overjoyed and said, "Very good, General Jiang is in Datong to clear out the thieves, and he is looking forward to the meeting of the king and the division." A few days ago, Yulinwei has been broken by Sun Inspector's division, and now there is a noble army coming, several parties gather in Datong, and the north of Jin can be determined! ”

Han Gon listened to it and didn't say anything else, but he was stunned and said, "Yulin is broken?" ”

"Yulin is broken?"

In the Huangluling Guancheng, Hou Dagui looked at Wang Fu's ministers who were introduced by Han Gon and said exactly the same thing.

"Yes." Wang Fu's minister nodded.

It turned out that Sun Chuanting was in Yulinwei by himself, and the reason why he did not move forward was because Gao Yigong was good at field warfare, and he and the deputy general Ma Shitai relied on the advantage of the horse army to repeatedly limit the Ming army that was trying to attack the city to the outskirts of the city. Sun Chuanting planned several rounds of conflicts, but they were all repulsed, and generals such as Gao Ruli and Sun Shoufa were even injured one after another. Bai Guangen and Niu Chenghu saw that the momentum was lost, and they sang the retreat again. However, Sun Chuanting's determination to send troops this time was extremely resolute, not only severely suppressing Bai, Niu and other people who were shaken in their minds, but also leaving behind the cruel words that they could not capture Yulinwei and killed themselves in front of the city to thank Junguo.

The morale of the army barely stabilized, and Sun Chuan assessed the situation during the trial and adjusted the siege strategy. He understood the strength of the Shun army's field warfare, and no longer easily divided his troops to attack the Shun army's field defenders to fight with them, but ordered the whole army to dig trenches and set up barriers, and every three days to advance the front fifty steps in the direction of the city.

Gao Yigong saw Sun Chuanting's intentions and took the initiative to fight back, wanting to drive the Ming army to the periphery. But with a deep ditch and a high barrier, the Ming army fought a handy defensive battle. Although the Shun army and the horse army were profitable, their power was greatly damaged, and the battle was fruitless, but the soldiers were lost. Sun Chuanting was neither arrogant nor impatient, and fought steadily, gradually compressing the forces of the Shun army on the outskirts of the city. After a long tug-of-war, the Shun army was defeated repeatedly, and its morale was completely devoid and demoralized.

During the period of commanding the siege, Sun Chuanting even sent Hao Mingluan to lead people to infiltrate the Yulin Acropolis and contact Neiying. Yulinwei is the seat of Yansui Town, and all the people in the place are generations of generals, and they are brave and brave, even women and children will hold bows and ride horses. Previously, when Li Zicheng attacked Yulinwei, he had been fiercely resisted by the old official clan, and the losses were not small. When the Shun army gained power, they did not dare to act, but when the Shun army was defeated and retreated, the hatred of the country and the family was blended in their hearts, and they all had the determination to fight and drive away the hatred of the thieves. Therefore, as soon as Hao Mingluan came forward, he immediately responded to the call, and when the Shun army was defeated and retreated outside the city, he did his best to attack the Shun army that stayed in the city with his family's military equipment.

The Shun army is in internal and external difficulties, and it is difficult to support. Gao Yigong lost his ground, and after a big defeat, he had no choice but to abandon the city, led the army to evacuate, and retreated to Shanxi.

Wang Fu's original surname is Li, and he was a rogue in Shanxi in his early years, brave and good at fighting, and was nicknamed "Ma Harrier". After descending to the Ming army, he worshiped Jiang Xuan's general Wang Jinchao as his father-in-law, and then became a Ming general. Since Jiang Hao rebelled against the Shun army in Datong, he has been trying his best to expand his troops and horses. In order to absorb Wan Lian's troops into the army, he immediately sent the general Wang Jinchao to lead the troops to contact, and he used both soft and hard. At this time, the news that Yulinwei was captured by Sun Chuanting came, and Wang Jinchao found out that Gao Yigong's defeated army crossed the Yellow River from Mengjiayu and retreated to the territory of Caolanzhou, so he quickly went south to intercept it, won three battles and won three times, and only a few hundred horses were left to flee wildly after the soldiers and horses were tired and sluggish.

Wang Jin Dynasty made meritorious contributions and gave Wang Fu's ministers hundreds of horsemen to continue the pursuit. After chasing for a day and night, until Guji Mountain, Gao Yigong, who was sleepy and lacking, could only turn around and fight a decisive battle with Wang Fu's ministers. When Han Gon arrived, the battle had actually come to an end, and Gao Yigong's right-hand man Ma Shitai shot and killed Wang Fu's ministers, and the remaining soldiers were unable to fight again, and Gao Yigong fled again. If it weren't for Wang Fu's ministers who didn't know the origin of Han Gon's army at that time, and collected their troops on alert, they were afraid that Gao Yigong would not be able to retreat with his whole body.

"Yulin Wei Ke, northern Shaanxi and northern Shanxi will be opened." Hou Dagui's biggest worry since he sent out the army was relieved, and he let out a long sigh, "Our army's sentry food is hard, can you borrow Datong to take advantage of it?" "The language is tentative.

"And rightfully so." Wang Fu's ministers clapped their hands and nodded, "Our army lacks nothing in Datong, only the heroes of the Quartet." ”

Jiang Hao is in Datong Shouyi, and the gentry of northern Jin have also risen up, although the forces are endless, but in terms of strength, there is no one who is on the right side of Jiang Hao. The northern Jin Dynasty was in different places, surrounded by enemies on all sides, lacking foreign aid, and most of the various forces depended on Jiang Jiu in order to survive. Especially the local businessmen, who have contributed a lot of money and grain, at least in terms of logistics, Jiang Jiu's army has no worries in the short term.

However, Jiang Huang's situation was not good, not to mention the Shun army, after the Qing army captured Beijing, they also sent people to recruit him. At first, he thought that the Qing army was really a reinforcement invited by Wu Sangui to suppress the thieves and restore the homeland for the Ming Dynasty, so he supported Zhu Dingshan, a descendant of the king of Zaoqiang, to "continue the worship of the first emperor" to enhance the appeal. However, after this move was learned by the Qing court in Beijing, it showed no mercy and directly denounced Jiang Jiu's move as "unreasonable", and then sent Ye Chen and other Eight Banners to start marching to Shanxi.

Jiang Hao realized that the intention of the Qing army was probably not so simple, and he was afraid in his heart, so he removed Zhu Dingshan and wrote to the Qing court to ask for forgiveness for his "crime of not learning and not knowing". The Qing court warned him to "wash his mind and not worry", but the march continued. Jiang Xuan, who has a heart for the Ming Dynasty, is caught in the dilemma of being caught between the Shun and Qing armies.

In order to break the predicament, Jiang Hao pinned his hopes on Sun Chuanting, and only hoped that the other party could defeat Yulin Wei to join Datong as soon as possible. With Sun Chuanting's cooperation, for him, his confidence can naturally be strengthened a lot. Who knew that Sun Chuanting had not made progress in Yulin for a long time, he was so anxious, the reason why he sent Wang Jinchao's army to clean up Wanlian was just to take the way, and the main purpose was to go to Yulinwei to wait and see and wait for an opportunity to assist Sun Chuanting in attacking the city.

Jiang Hao currently hopes to hold the Datong Mansion for him as many soldiers and horses as possible, and Wang Fu's ministers certainly welcome Hou Daguijun.

Hou Dagui learned Jiang Jiu's general attitude from Wang Fu's ministers, and he was a little relieved. The next day, he led the army, guided by Wang Fu's ministers, and marched in the direction of Datongwei through Huqi Mountain.

Wang Fu's ministers are bold and talkative, and they are good at greeting, Hou Dagui and him are very angry, and soon they will be called brothers. On the way, Hou Dagui asked: "Brother mentioned Sun Chuanting, one by one, don't you know that he has been named the king of Anxi by the imperial court?" ”

"I've heard of it, but I've heard from the thieves who escaped from Yulinwei that Sun Chuanting issued a number of military orders in his army to boost morale, one of which said that he would not take over Beijing and swear not to be sealed, and forced the upper and lower levels to still call him a supervisor. It can be seen that his loyalty is true. ”

Hou Dagui sneered: "Loyal to the first emperor, but disdainful of the will of the saint today, on the authenticity of the word 'loyalty', I am afraid that he will have to make a discount on him." ”

Wang Fu's ministers saw that Hou Dagui was displeased, and he stopped talking.

Hou Dagui secretly thought to himself: "If you go to Datong this time to meet Sun Chuanting, you have to find a way to deal with this person." Otherwise, it is really difficult to say whether this person's behavior seems to be serving the country, and in the end, it is pros and cons. Thinking about it like this, Fang Cai talked and laughed with Wang Fu's ministers again.

After two days of marching, they arrived at the state of Quelan. While sending people to inquire about the signs of Sun Chuanting's army, Hou Dagui called Wang Fu's ministers and said, "You said before that your father-in-law would wait for you here, why is there no one now?" ”

Wang Fu's minister replied: "I'm wondering, hasn't my father-in-law solved the problem of Guan Wanlian?" ”

At the moment, he was still puzzled, but at this time, Han Gon brought someone closer, saying that he had met him outside the city and took the initiative to ask to see him. Wang Fu's ministers saw the acquaintance and immediately said, "This is my father-in-law's servant." Instead, he asked about the servant.

The servant said, "The villain stayed here precisely to inform you. After a pause, he continued, "The master left a message, saying that a few days ago, General Jiang of Datong ordered that some Tartar soldiers arrived at the Guanglinglin Pass in the southeast of the mansion, and the intention was unknown, so the whole army in the mansion was summoned to the mansion to wait. General Wang's soldiers and horses did not return for a long time, and the master couldn't wait, so he left first. Then you can go to Datong. ”

"Here comes the Tartars." Han Gon nodded to Hou Dagui.

Hou Dagui also nodded and said, "Got it." ”
