Chapter 721: Attacking Feng Hongduo
"Assassin Shi, the Shengzhou soldiers are out of the city!"
Outside Shengzhou City, An Renyi had just finished breakfast when one of his subordinates hurriedly came.
"What's wrong with going out of town? Gather a large army and take the opportunity to conquer Shengzhou in one fell swoop! An Renyi said nonchalantly.
"Yes!"
When the Huainan army was assembling here, Feng Hongduo was giving a lecture to the army under his command.
"Brothers, those bastards in Huainan on the other side are bullying us and no one in Shengzhou. I, Feng, have also let go, as long as I kill a Huainan army, I can exchange the head of the Huainan army for five yuan. If you kill the generals of the Huainan army, you will be rewarded more; If anyone kills or captures alive Runzhou Assassin Shi An Renyi, this assassin will reward him with a thousand times.
Kill me, brothers! ”
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Hearing that the reward was so rich, these Shengzhou soldiers suddenly became excited, and they all raised their weapons and shouted.
This looks inexplicably at the Huainan army on the opposite side, what stimulated this Shengzhou soldier?
It wasn't until the two sides fought that the Huainan Army knew that today's Shengzhou soldiers were different from before. To say that it sounds good is like divine help, and to say that it is not good to say that it is crazy.
In the past, the Huainan army defeated the Shengzhou soldiers and was forced to retreat to Shengzhou City. But today, these Shengzhou soldiers are crazy one by one, and they are not afraid of death, and seeing them Huainan Army is like seeing a woman without clothes, which is called a panic.
"Assassin Shi, these Shengzhou soldiers are crazy, and none of them are afraid of death!"
In the fierce battle, a general with blood on his armor quickly ran in front of An Renyi and shouted loudly.
The Shengzhou soldiers shocked him too much, as if he was not a group of people before.
But the Shengzhou Navy Division is stronger, but the infantry army can't do it, why is it that the infantry army is so brave now?
"Not afraid of death? If there is anything that is not afraid of death, send out cavalry and attack the flank of the Shengzhou soldiers. An Renyi snorted coldly.
Soon, five hundred cavalry entered the ranks of the Shengzhou soldiers, and the situation, which was originally somewhat disadvantaged, was quickly stabilized.
Don't look at him, he only has 500 cavalry, but these 500 cavalry is his killer weapon.
Jiangnan is different from the north, Jiangnan does not produce horses, coupled with the intentional blockade of the imperial court, few war horses fall to Huainan or even Jiangnan.
Most of the few war horses were in Yang Xingmi's hands, but there were only a few thousand. Those thousands of cavalry are the hole cards in the south, but in the north, they are not even elite, and the war horses they ride are not inferior horses.
Runzhou, led by An Renyi, lacked war horses, and these five hundred cavalry were formed at a great cost to him.
Although the slaughter of these 500 cavalry stabilized the situation of the battle, they could not defeat the Shengzhou soldiers. said that today's Shengzhou soldiers are all like taking medicine, and they are not afraid of death.
The battle continued until the afternoon, when both sides were exhausted from fighting, and then Ming Jin withdrew.
The casualties on both sides were not small, in view of the abnormality of the Shengzhou soldiers, An Renyi chose to retreat twenty miles, and at the same time reported the abnormality of the Shengzhou soldiers to Yang Xingmi, hoping to get reinforcements.
After Yang Xingmi got the news of Shengzhou, he was also a little surprised, and just when he was about to take action, there was a change in the town navy.
Wu Yongdu, who commanded Qian Biao left and right, made Xu Juan and Xu Zaisi suddenly launch a mutiny in Yuezhou, captured Yuezhou, and was willing to submit to the imperial court.
Wuyong was originally formed by Qian Biao with Sun Ru's surrender of troops, because Sun Ru's remnants were mostly northerners, plus perennial battles, they were more brave. After the formation of Wu Yongdu, it became a relatively strong army under Qian Biao, and this time to block the Zhendong Army from going north, Wu Yongdu was transferred to Yuezhou to threaten the Zhendong Army, so that the Zhendong Army did not dare to go north.
Who would have thought that these thousands of elites would suddenly mutiny and capture Yuezhou in one fell swoop.
The capture of Yuezhou by the rebels was tantamount to disrupting Qian Biao's plan.
When he ordered Ma Xuan to lead 10,000 troops from Hangzhou to quell the rebellion in Yuezhou, Xu Juan and Xu Zaisi actually welcomed the Zhendong army into the city.
Yuezhou returned to the Zhendong Army, which Qian Biao did not expect.
He doesn't have time to care about Tian Bao's life or death now, if it's not good, the Zhendong Army may attack him.
In order to avoid direct confrontation with the imperial army, Qian Biao sent people to Mingzhou to negotiate peace with Zheng Ningji, hoping to use non-interference in the Xuanzhou war situation as a bargaining chip in exchange for Yuezhou.
A Xuanzhou, even if they don't have the Zhendong Army to join, it will only waste some more time, and sooner or later it will have to be pacified.
But Yuezhou is different.
When Zheng Ningji and others first came to Zhendong Army, Yuezhou was occupied by Qian Biao, forcing him to move the Jiedu Embassy to Mingzhou. Now there is a chance to recapture Yuezhou, even if it is a war with Qian Biao, and this is not his initiative to send troops, but his subordinates mutinied, and then switched to the imperial court.
When the changes in the town navy reached Yangzhou, Yang Xingmi, who originally wanted to increase the number of troops for An Renyi, chose to give up after hesitating again and again, and let An Renyi's army withdraw to Runzhou and no longer care about Xuanzhou.
Thinking that Xuanzhou would soon be taken away by the imperial court, Yang Xingmi did not feel good in his heart.
But there has been such a big change on Qian Biao's side, and he must not have time to take care of the war in Xuanzhou. Without this ally, Yang Xingmi would be unable to support himself, and there was no good way to do it except give up.
As Qian Biao and Yang Xingmi gave up support one after another, Shezhou Assassin Shi quickly chose Kaesong to surrender.
In this way, the three states controlled by Tian Hao before were only Xuanzhou, and it was only a state city.
。。。。。。
Xuanzhou.
"Du Changshi, I don't know if I can bother you to go to the imperial army camp outside the city, as long as the imperial court is willing to withdraw the army, I will say that the envoy is willing to surrender to the imperial court."
Tian Hao looked at Du Xunhe hopefully.
Don't look at Tian Hao's 30,000 troops, but after hearing the words of the imperial army that only punish the evil, the morale plummeted. If it weren't for Tian Hao's prestige in the army, maybe someone would have committed rebellion by now, taking his head to the court in exchange for a rich reward.
Morale plummeted, and Tian Hao could only retreat to Xuanzhou.
At this time, there was news that Yang Xingmi and Qian Biao would no longer reinforce him, which was undoubtedly worse.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, Tian Hao had the intention of surrendering.
What he thought was that as long as the imperial court withdrew its troops, he was willing to surrender to Xuanzhou to assassinate him.
Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood.
Even if he loses Chizhou and Shezhou, as long as Xuanzhou is still there, he has a chance to make a comeback.
Since he was so planned, he had to send someone to talk to the court.
After thinking about it, he still decided to let Du Xunhe go.
In his opinion, Du Xunhe is known for his talent, and he is a Jinshi, and he also has some connections in the imperial court, so it should be said that he has mercy on the court's subordinates.
However, Du Xunhe's face was a little ugly when he heard Tian Hao's words, "Envoy, can you change someone else?" ”
"What? Du Changshi is reluctant to go? ”
Seeing that Du Xunhe had a retreat on his face, Tian Hao also had some displeasure on his face. Not only did he shelter the other party, but he also entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and now he is unwilling to let the other party negotiate with the imperial court?
