Chapter 299: Bad News
Yang Keshi had already sent He Si away, and discussed with Gao Yuan and Zhou Nan in the room about training and stationing troops.
From Zhou Nan took Zuo Xiaosi and Zhou Fu down the mountain to Yizhou, in two months, he first took Zhuoyi Erzhou, raised the banner of Wansheng Army, and then captured Xincheng, Guiyi, Qigou Pass and other Guancheng, reorganized soldiers and horses, and finally took Yanjing in one fell swoop, and the people and horses in his hands have changed from the 150 people in the original cottage and Yang Keshi's 200 cavalry, to now the Wansheng Army has 24,000 infantry troops and 9,000 horse soldiers, not counting the 4,000 township soldiers who maintain law and order in the cities.
The northern and southern boundaries of Yanjing City, except for Danzhou in the northβbut now Gao Yuan and Yang Keshi have taken Danzhou as their own territoryβare all in the hands of Zhou Nan. Gao Yuan and Yang Keshi were both satisfied, who would have thought that in just two months, this place would belong to those of them who came out of the cottage.
But Zhou Nan is not here, just like the mountains he has climbed, the roads he has walked, the ones that have been stepped on and those that have been walked over, he will not pay more attention. The "Shu" he is now "looking at" is in the east, from Yanjing to the east, to this large area of land in the Bohai Bay. There is the last back door of Yanjing, which needs to be blocked, so that Yanjing is foolproof. By then, will his territory be doubled?
Therefore, Zhou Nan urgently needed to discuss with Gao Yuan and Yang Keshi how to allocate troops, and on the basis of guarding the current territory and state city, draw out a cavalry army to develop in the east.
"Now the Wansheng Army has 4,000 horse troops and 11,000 infantry troops. After capturing Xincheng, Guiyi, Gu'an, Yanjing and other state cities, 4,500 elite soldiers were selected, of which Gao Ge grabbed 4,000 horses from the Song army, and drew Yizhou and Zhuozhou infantry to form a horse army of 4,000 people. β
Zhou Nan took out a piece of paper, casually took a pen and drew on the paper and said: "This time, Brother Gao sent people to transport the stolen armor and weapons to Yizhou and Zhuozhou, and also sent people to call Jia Liu, Feng Chun, Kang Wen and others in the cottage, which happened to be useful. Yizhou is led by Shi Yue, Kang Wen is the deputy, leading 2,000 horse troops, 2,000 infantry troops, and 1,000 township soldiers, Yizhou and Sanssouci are only more than 30 miles away, which can be used as horns for each other to prevent ......" Zhou Nan glanced at Yang Keshi and continued: "Prevent Song soldiers from entering from this direction. β
Gao Yuan and Yang Keshi nodded, Yang Keshi entered from the mountain path under Sanssouci Village, Yang Keshi can come in, and others can naturally come in.
Zhou Nan asked Gao Yuan again: "Jia Liu has come out, who is leading the family protection society in the cottage?" β
Gao Yuan replied: "Now it is led by Feng Jin - it is the Feng Jin who killed the old lady by the bandits." Now our Wansheng Army has a loud name outside, and most of the people who lead the troops inside are people from our family protection club, and those young people in the cottage are vying to join the family protection club, and they are rushing to be the captain of the family protection club, and they are all unambiguous in practice, haha! β
"That's good. Let Feng Chun garrison Zhuozhou, leading 1,000 cavalry troops, 1,000 infantry troops, and 1,000 township soldiers. In the past, Xincheng and Guiyi City were guarded by Gao Shouzhong alone, now Xincheng is still garrisoned by Gao Shouzhong, and the Guiyi City guard is served by Jia Liu, Zhuozhou's extra 1000 horse soldiers and 1000 infantry troops rushed to Guiyi City, led by Jia Liu, plus the original people and horses of Guiyi City, a total of 1000 people led by the horse army, 2000 infantry troops, here is the closest to the boundary river, put more soldiers and horses. Gao Shouzhong was stationed in Xincheng, leading 1,000 horse troops and 2,000 infantry troops, and Guiyi City were horns and took care of each other. β
Although the two cities of Xincheng and Guiyi are small, their geographical location is important, and it is natural to directly block the passage of the Song army to cross the border to the north and garrison more soldiers and horses.
"There is also Gu'an City that Brother Gao just captured the day before yesterday, and Yang Dachun rushed to Gu'an, leading the original 1,500 infantry troops left in the city to defend Gu'an. This will be the passage to the east in the future, and it will be necessary to send more troops and horses in the future. β
Zhou Nan looked at Gao Yuan and Yang Keshi, and continued: "Yanjing City has left 3,000 infantry troops to defend the city, and I will lead it for the time being, you two, you two will each lead 4,000 cavalry, rest for a few days, and we will go east in a few days." β
Gao Yuan hurriedly said to Zhou Nan: "Da Lang, go to the east, I must go!" You're going to take me with you! β
Zhou Nan said with a smile: "In the past, I would have called Yang Datou to accompany me, but this time I will definitely take you there." β
Gao Yuan asked puzzled, "Why?" β
"Because you're familiar with grabbing! Hahaha! β
Gao Yuan knew that Zhou Nan was joking with him, and he didn't mind, he just had to lead him anyway.
It's just that Yang Keshi looked pensive, and didn't pay attention to Gao Yuan and Zhou Nan, and said to Zhou Nan after a while: "Da Lang, you missed a place." If something happens in the future, it will be the trend of the black tiger digging out of the heart. β
Zhou Nan listened to what Yang Keshi said seriously, and hurriedly asked where it was, Yang Keshi picked up the pen, drew a circle on the top corner of Yanjing City, and said to Zhou Nan: "Da Lang, this Juyong Pass, have you ever thought about it?" Juyongguan has been one of the nine fortresses in the world since ancient times, and the terrain is extremely dangerous. From Juyong Pass, you can go straight to Yanjing, you have to guard against it! β
When Zhou Nan heard Yang Keshi say, he realized that he had forgotten such an important place as Juyong Pass. The Jin soldiers in history attacked Yanjing, and it was the supervisor Gao Liu in Yanjing City who opened the door to welcome the thieves. Even if history repeats itself, Jin Bing will only choose to come in Yongguan, but his foothold in this Yanjing City is not stable, if there is really this prison army high six, then it will not be easy for him to guard Yanjing.
"Brother Yang, who is the current guard of Juyong Pass?" Zhou Nan asked, Yang Keshi defended Yanjing, he should know the surrounding garrison.
"It seems to be...... What is it called? Yang Keshi thought for a while and replied.
Zhou Nan was stunned for a moment.
"Mother, it's time to go down to dinner." Hua Nu whispered to Concubine Xiao De. From the morning, Xiao Puxian went up to the Yanjiao Tower, looking at the Yanjing City at her feet, and it was a long time to stop. Although it is rare to see a lively and festive scene in Yanjing City now, people are cleaning the streets, cleaning up debris, hanging lanterns and flags, and the guys in the shops are also pasting their shops with red and green. But as the queen mother, Niangniang has never seen anything strange and lively, and even her little maid is tired of watching here for a long time.
Xiao Pu turned her head and asked in a hoarse voice, "Hua Nu, are you willing to go out of the palace to deliver a message for me?" β
Hua Nu bowed down and replied: "Niangniang, please instruct, the slave and maid will also be broken for Niangniang." β
"You don't need to break your bones, just give the note to the prison army master Gao in Juyong Pass." Xiao Puxian said in a low voice.
"What are you looking for Tallie-sama?" Hua Nu asked casually.
"I want that little vixen in Danzhou and the surname Zhou to go to the underworld to be husband and wife!" Xiao Puxian gritted her teeth and said, "You will go in the afternoon!" β
"Yes, sissy." The inertia of serving her master since she was a child made her have no courage to resist at all.
