Chapter 171: The First Pass of the Great Wall 4
When Zhou Nan and his entourage arrived at Zunhua City, Li Shi, who was the temporary city lord, was not in the city, and only one commander of the Wansheng Army was left in the city. This commander was greatly surprised and extremely happy when he saw Zhou Nan and the others arrive. After Zhou Nan's inquiry, he learned that Li Shi was summoned to Yanjing City by the imperial court two days ago, saying that it was Li Hanlin's piece of music, which caused a sensation in the court, and the princess of Shu sent someone to summon him to Beijing.
"Don't look at a Hanlin scholar, you can toss, hahaha!" Zhou Nan smiled at the people around him and said, this is also what he is happy to see, Li Shi is a talented person, Zhou Nan does not want to tie Li Shi to his side, so that Li Shi has a broader stage to play, is what he wants to see. Now that Li Shi's piece of music can cause a sensation among the important ministers of Yanjing, it can be seen that it must be a very important thing.
"What kind of music is Li Hanlin on?" Zhou Nan asked with interest.
"This ...... The little one didn't know, but he only knew that after three days of sending the chapter away, Li Shi was called away. The commander touched his head and said with a smile.
Zhou Nan was familiar with the road and came to the backyard of the county government in Zunhua City, in this courtyard, Xiao Gan was shot by Zhou Fu with a crossbow arrow outside the wall. Thinking of this, Zhou Nan's heart tightened, and he asked the commander: "Where are the soldiers and horses of General Yang and General Gao now?" What is the situation? And General Tao and General Shi, where are they stationed now? Can all the states and counties in Pingzhou be recovered? ”
This commander was very clear about the march and battle, and reported to Zhou Nanyi one by one: "General Gao and General Yang are leading troops to garrison Yuguan City, and the Jin army outside Guancheng is also stubborn, obviously unable to fight, but still want to find an opportunity." Thanks to General Gao, they had explosive arrows and flying cars in their hands, so they held Yuguan City to the death, but I heard that they also killed and wounded three or four thousand men and horses. ”
Zhou Nan asked in surprise: "How many people have been lost?" ”
"Yes! As soon as he fought with the Jin army, he suffered the most casualties. Immediately in the field, those Jin troops were indeed more powerful than the Liao soldiers and Song soldiers they had encountered in the past, and they were not defeated thanks to General Yang and General Gao who took the lead in fighting. When they use explosive arrows and flying cars, those golden people will be much more honest. A few days ago, some explosive arrows were transported, but there is no need to worry about Yuguan City. "What this commander said was as if he had seen it with his own eyes, that is, Zhou Nan sounded now, and he was also worried for a while, it seems that the Jin army is really not blowing out of the battle. If there are no explosive arrows and flying cars to help, sooner or later the Jin people will attack.
"What about General Shi and General Tao?" Hearing that Yang Keshi and Gao Yuan had temporarily stood on their feet, Zhou Nan breathed a sigh of relief.
"If the lord of the big village asks where General Tao and General Shi are stationed now, the little one really can't answer." The commander smiled and said excitedly to Zhou Nan: "I only know that the person who sent the letter the day before yesterday said that General Tao had recovered Yingzhou and drove into Guangning County, and General Shi was further away and had already reached Le'an Pavilion, and I heard that he had reached the seaside. ”
Only then did Zhou Nan know that the commander couldn't answer what he just said, and he was deliberately selling off. However, Yingzhou and Guangning, Zhou Nan had already asked from Li Shi. In fact, the approximate location of Yingzhou and Quang Ninh is in the Changli area of later generations, but the ancient people divided this area. Just like the Le'an Pavilion just mentioned.
This commander said that Shi Yue had already hit Le'an Pavilion, and Zhou Nan was of course happy. Le'an Pavilion is the Le Pavilion of later generations. Zhou Nan also took it for granted that the place of Leting was likely to have extremely magnificent pavilions and the like in ancient times, but Li Shi told him that in the Qin and Han dynasties, fifty families were one mile, ten miles and one pavilion, and ten pavilions and one township, not pavilions and pavilions. Basically, the kiosk is the smallest administrative unit. It can also be seen from here that the sparsely populated Leting at this time was a small village in later generations.
"Since the coastal area of Yingzhou has been recovered, what about the Luanzhou area?" Zhou Nan asked with concern. From Zunhua to the east, out of the mountain pass, basically has entered the boundary of Pingzhou Road, that is, it belongs to Pingzhou Anxi County. If you want to fight from the north to the sea, you must first pass through Pingzhou, and the two can hit the Leting area, with the steady character of Tao Gu and Shi Yue, Pingzhou must have been recovered. So Zhou Nan just asked about the Luanzhou area west of Yingzhou.
"The two generals were recovered from north to west, one by one, and the two generals were afraid that the rebellious army would flee, so they first recovered Pingzhou for the sake of trouble, in order to guard the back road for General Yang and General Gao, in case General Yang and General Gao were attacked by the enemy. Then turn southwest from Pingzhou, first open the circle, and trap the rebellious troops in Luanzhou and Yingzhou. Therefore, it first received Luanzhou in the west, and now there are only a few seaside left! The commander explained carefully to Zhou Nan.
Zhou Nan couldn't help but nodded, Tao Gu and Shi Yue were indeed well matched, both of them were people who were not greedy for merit, and they knew the priorities, and they were worried that the chaotic army in Pingzhou and the Jin people would attack them before and after, so they would recover Pingzhou first, which could be regarded as extremely accurate. It's just that leading these newly recruited soldiers dares to stretch the battle line and try to besiege these chaotic troops, isn't it a taboo for soldiers? The trapped beasts are still fighting, forcing these chaotic troops to be in a hurry, fighting to the death, and their own side will also innocently injure many soldiers.
"Aren't you afraid that these rebellious armies will fight to the death?" Zhou Nan frowned and said.
At first, Li Hanlin also persuaded the two generals in this way. However, the two generals replied that since Zhang Jue was killed, the four-way army under his command fell apart, and the rebel armies in various state capitals and counties had long been leaderless and panicked. I also saw that the tens of thousands of troops led by General Tao and General Shi were neat and neat, and the armor was bright and unshakable. Often after a slight attack under the city, the defenders of the city will open the door and surrender. It was a slight twist and turn when Pingzhou was first recovered, and it could not be attacked several times. General Shi sent people to borrow a few explosive arrows from General Gao, and when two arrows were fired, the people and soldiers in the city tied up the guards, sent them out of the city, and surrendered to the army. ”
"That's a good idea." Zhou Nan said with a smile.
"That's what the lord of the village said. Later, if there were any more who could not hold out, General Shi shot an arrow, and the soldiers inside opened the city gate regardless of what the guards said. It was only because of the recovery of Ping, Luan, and Ying that the three prefectures were so fast. Exploding arrows are really good stuff! The conductor complimented enviously.
"Don't you want to go to the enemy camp and recover the state and county?" Zhou Nan asked with a smile.
"Back to the master of Dazhai, everyone has their own military life, and they must not trespass. The small one was ordered to garrison Zunhua and maintain the grain road, how dare he disobey the army's orders? Although the commander said this, his face was still eager to try, and he was unwilling to stay in the rear.
"I'm going to Yuguan City this time to repel the Jin army, are you willing to go with me?" Zhou Nan brought out Feng Jin in Sanssouci Village, and wanted Feng Jin to adapt to Zunhua City for a while. Seeing that this commander made his brain flexible, he had the heart to take this commander with him and let Feng Jin take over the commander.
"Thank you for the love of the big villager, and the small ones are grateful. The small one is not afraid of death, but the small one is reluctant to go to Yuguan City. This commander directly rejected Zhou Nan's kindness.
