When the Great Zhou Emperor Chai Rong came to Yangzhou, he recruited Li Chong to go to Yangzhou to meet him and take the military opportunity to merchant. After Li Chongjin left, the 20,000 people on the right wing of the Hujie army were all under the command of Li Jixun, the commander of the guard Sibu Army, and were stationed in the south of Tushan to wait for reinforcements from the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Sure enough, the Southern Tang Dynasty had already sent a fleet of ships transporting military supplies from Haozhou (on the south bank of the Huai River, in the lower and eastern reaches of Shouzhou), intending to support Shouzhou by water. The army was mostly old and weak, just to escort the transport ships. But the main general is an extraordinary character......

Chai Kehong! The lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty was regarded as one of the right-hand men who guaranteed the throne and had a large number of capable generals, and the Southern Tang Dynasty was the envoy of the Fenghua Army. He had just arrived in Haozhou to deploy defenses; Not long ago, he asked for an order, and Shouzhou's fierce fire oil, arrows and other military resources were consumed hugely, and he wanted to lead the army to reinforce Liu Renzhan.

Chai Kehong, the spiritual leader who guarantees the morale of Nan**. A month ago, Wu Yueguo fell into the ground, and when the Zhou army attacked the Southern Tang Dynasty, he sent troops to stab Changzhou in the back, and Changzhou almost fell; Chai Kehong led the crowd to Changzhou, defeated Wu Yue's army in a battle, beheaded more than 10,000 Wu Yue troops, and captured dozens of generals on the spot. The morale of the military and civilians of the Southern Tang Dynasty has been greatly boosted! Chai Kehong became famous all over the world in the First World War, and everywhere he went, the people blocked the road to greet him. The common people preferred to listen to the anecdotes of his relationship with his mother......

Chai Kehong went to Xuanzhou again, and rectified the city defense on ten days, and Xuanzhou was impregnable.

But as soon as Chai Kehong took the boat halfway there, he heard that Shouzhou had fallen, and couldn't help but be surprised and sighed, looking back at the generals and saying: "Who can take the city guarded by Liu Gong?" ”

One of the generals said: "Zhou Jun Shouzhou recruited Guo Shao." ”

Chai Kehong sighed again after hearing this, and then became excited again: "I must find a time to meet Guo Shao!" Ask for a few tips. ”

Soon there was a scout report: "There are more than 20,000 Zhou troops in the south of Tushan, and it is said that the main will be Li Jixun." ”

"Haha......" Chai Kehong immediately laughed and said, "Wait for me to avenge Gong Liu!" Order the whole army to go ashore and settle down! ”

The general hurriedly persuaded: "The Zhou army is elite, and the big countries are afraid of it." Our troops are weak, and they are not opponents of the Zhou army when they go ashore to form a village; It is useless to lose the rescue in Shouzhou, so it is better to turn around and return to Haozhou as soon as possible. ”

Chai Kehong said disapplausively: "Li Jixun I know, Xiao Xiaojun!" The sword in his hand is only broken copper, and I will teach him how to use the army, so that he can learn a long time. ”

Chai Kehong is very proud, even his mother can't persuade him, how can the ministry persuade him?

He said to the generals: "A while ago, I heard that Liu Gong went out of the city to attack the battle, Li Jixun did not move, and Li Jixun and Shouzhou recruited envoys to disagree!" Now that the city of Shouzhou is broken, Li Jixun must be reckless and eager to seek merit, isn't it just in my arms? Li Jixun led his troops to be stationed in Tushannan, but he was just waiting to fight our reinforcements, and now give him a chance to taste it! ”

Nan** then set up camp on the south bank of Huaishui, and the camp was ten miles deep.

Sure enough, Li Jixun couldn't believe that Guo Shao, who he looked down on the most, could actually capture Shouzhou, and he felt that he couldn't get over it; He led the army to attack Chai Kehong's department, and hurried to the south ** village, as if they were afraid that they would run away. Chai Kehong fought against the old and weak, was defeated, and ran back to the camp of the Huaishui case. Li Jixun's troops pressed their backs to cover up and rushed into the ** camp. Suddenly, there was a cannon sound of a bamboo tube plug, the fire on all sides rushed to the sky, the fierce fire oil and the undried straw burned up and the smoke was filled, and quickly spread to the Zhou soldiers and horses, the Zhou soldiers and horses were divided by fire and smoke, the front and back can not look at each other, the soldiers can not find the soldiers, the soldiers cannot find the generals, a mess.

At this time, the drums were loud, arrows rained down on all sides, and Chai Kehong led a small number of elite soldiers to break through his formation, and the army covered and killed. Li Jixun was ambushed and defeated, and fled for dozens of miles all the way before gradually gathering the chaotic troops to form a formation.

At this moment, I suddenly heard that ** strange soldiers appeared behind the Tu Shannan camp. Li Jixun didn't expect ** to run so far to attack his camp, and the scouts didn't have it, and they were negligent in their defense; The baggage, grain and grass in the rear were all burned by Chai Kehong's small cavalry.

When Li Jixun looked back, the thick smoke on the camp side of the camp was billowing into the sky, and he couldn't help but turn pale and almost cried.

Li Jixun was furious and wanted to gather a large army to push the southern ** village with overwhelming elite combat power...... But because of the haste and urgency of the preparations, the sergeants carried only a few wheat cakes with them; Now that the food is all destroyed, and there is no food, what kind of war is there to fight? The morale of the army was low, and everyone saw that the food was burning violently, and they had to worry about whether there was anything to eat...... Li Jixun had no choice but to retreat in the direction of Xia Cai first, while sending people to urge Li Gu to ask for military food supplies.

Li Gu's preparation of hundreds of thousands of troops in Huainan was already under great pressure to meet the grain and grass of the various armies.

……

At this time, Li Chongjin had just arrived in Yangzhou and met the saint in the emperor's palace. He did not shy away from it in front of the civil and military people, and his dissatisfaction was overflowing: "Guo Shao is incompetent, the corpse is vegetarian, it is impossible to capture Shouzhou, and Liu Renzhan has no pressure at all." The minister said in the army, just Guo Shao? He can capture Shouzhou, and I will fry the fish with a hand plate to give him a reward! Today's deadline has arrived, please send someone to Shouzhou immediately to arrest this guy; I recommend Li Jixun, the commander of the infantry military division, to be the envoy of Shouzhou, which will be more useful than Guo Shao! ”

Li Chongjin said that he was complacent, and said in his heart that Li Jixun was from Zhao Kuangyin's side, and I was not a fake public servant.

Chai Rong pondered for a moment and said, "There are still a few days before the deadline is reached, and I can't say anything if the time is not enough." ”

Li Chongjin said again: "Your Majesty's holy decree can be written by the civil officials first, and when the time comes, let the people in the inner temple send it over two days in advance to arrest Guo Shao...... Otherwise, he may run away in fear of sin! ”

As soon as the words fell, suddenly an unscrupulous shout sounded outside: "Good news! Good news! Shouzhou victory! The city of Shouzhou was broken, and the Great Zhou army captured tens of thousands of people under Liu Renzhan, the general of the Southern Tang Dynasty! ”

Everyone looked at each other at first, and soon there was an uproar.

Li Chongjin's face suddenly turned white. Many ministers of civil and military affairs who had nothing to do with themselves and were happy to watch the play on the spot suddenly felt that this matter was too interesting, and they all looked at Li Chongjin, as if to say: Can you really fry fish in the palm of your hand?

Li Chongjin broke out in a cold sweat, and felt that the eyes around him pierced straight like sharp arrows, and it was very uncomfortable to stand on pins and needles. He was in a hurry and blurted out: "Fake! How can it be? That Guo Shaoqing knew that he could not escape death, and he was already panicked and dared to bully the king! ”

Chai Rong was very calm, waiting for the military general to pass on the good news, dismantling it with his own hands to take a look, and then passing it to the ministers for observation. Chai Rong's face suddenly smiled, and he said, "Send a fast horse to pass on Guo Shao immediately, I really want to see him immediately!" ”

At this moment, suddenly a eunuch hurried over and whispered something in the emperor's ear, and Chai Rong's face suddenly fell. The eunuch sent Li Gu's report again, and the emperor read it and still passed it on to the ministers for observation.

There was another uproar in the hall, and people scolded one after another: "Li Jixun is too disrespectful!" With 20,000 elite infantry riders in hand, he can be defeated by ** partial division! "The baggage can be burned, and the master will be derelict in his duties and dereliction of duty!" Li Jixun is not worthy of leading troops! ”

Even the privy envoy Wei Renpu didn't have good words: "You shouldn't lose." Originally, Shouzhou was strong, which could greatly blow the morale of the lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it was expected to force him to cut off the land north of the river and end the Huainan campaign as soon as possible. The Great Zhou army was immediately defeated again, and the impact was significant! Li Jixun can't be spared! ”

But Chai Rong was just very unhappy and didn't speak for a while. The Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and no one knows what the emperor is thinking.

The emperor just said lightly: "Order Li Gu to temporarily lead the right wing of the Hujie army to retreat to Shouzhou first, and call Li Jixun to come to see me!" ”

……

"Haha......" Guo Shao and the generals were drinking, he was holding the leg of mutton offered by the big family in Shouzhou with his left hand, and holding the bowl with his right hand. Just said some kind of joke, which caused the generals to lean forward and backward with laughter. With a "bang", Luo Mengzi directly threw away the wine bowl, spilled the wine on the ground, and rolled on the ground with his stomach in his hand, but unexpectedly knocked down a food table, and suddenly the cups and plates were thrown to the ground.

There are dozens of large boxes on it, all of which are copper coins, gold and silver treasures obtained from the Shouzhou treasury.

Guo Shao staggered to a box, grabbed a handful of copper coins and threw them into the air, shouting: "Grab the money in the open, everyone is divided!" ”

The generals were full of light and laughed "hahaha......haha", and some people directly shot the case, and the dishes on the board clanged and clanged.

Guo Shao said again: "Gather all the big households, let them pay, and if they do, they will post and post on the door." Strictly ordered the soldiers not to intrude anymore, and the iron rooster that did not pull out a hair was robbed by Lao Tzu, and the one that could not be robbed was burned out! ”

"Haha......"

"Those who kill the people, rape the female soldiers, all the things they have stolen will be confiscated, and nothing will be divided! Punish severely! If it is serious, it will be beheaded on the spot. Guo Shao said loudly, "I promised Liu Gong not to kill innocents indiscriminately, and I can't be untrustworthy!" If someone doesn't give Guo someone face, if he doesn't listen, I won't be polite to him! ”

As soon as the words fell, Zuo You stood up calmly and held a piece of paper: "What the lord said just now, I have summarized and written it into a civil statement and military order, and some places have been slightly modified to make it sound better...... Please take a look. If there is no problem, I will send someone to read it to the battalions and tell the whole army. ”

Guo Shao doesn't even read it, Nima's article without punctuation, Lao Tzu is too lazy to read it, he has a headache! He immediately said, "Go ahead." ”

Guo Shao picked up the wine bowl and said, "While Mr. Zuo hasn't left yet, everyone will come together and make a bowl for victory!" ”

Yang Biao quietly held the wine bowl and said, "It's a pity that there is no good appetizer." ”

The generals hurriedly said: "There is meat here, what kind of appetizer does Brother Yang want to use?" ”

Yang Biao said: "The fish fried by Li Chongjin with a hand plate must be delicious!" ”

"Hahaha......" The generals laughed unscrupulously again.

Someone said: "Don't worry about eating it, Li Dashuai is the head of the guards, it's not good if this grudge is big." ”

Zuo You smiled and said nothing, and after a while, he said, "Let's do it first!" There is still something to go out below, thank you for the lord and all of you. ”

"!" "!"
