Chapter 37 Liu Zeqing Asks for Help

"Ladies and gentlemen, Kaifeng is now in jeopardy." Hou Sui set the tone at the beginning and said: "Your Majesty is worried, this official can't sit back and watch Kaifeng fail, who can teach me?" ”

All the generals looked at their noses and noses, their noses and mouths, and they were so solemn and solemn, that is, they did not say a word.

No one is a fool, the implication of Hou Sui's words is that he must save Kaifeng? There is no other way to save Kaifeng, there is only one way, and that is to fight it. But all the officers and troops gathered on the north bank of the Yellow River can be described in four words, that is, the remnants of the army are defeated.

The Battle of Songshan can be said to have swept away all the troops in the north, and the eight general troops were defeated. And those who can really fight, such as Wu Sangui's department, do not dare to withdraw from the northern defense line. Moreover, the Qing army had the image of entering the customs, and they did not dare to use the northern forces in vain.

What kind of quality are the troops gathered here, just look at it, the general soldier Xu Dingguo, and the halfway camp can be seen.

Who can use these people, and who can't use them, Hou Sui also understands very well, and I am afraid that Liu Zeqing is the only one who can come in handy.

Therefore, Hou Sui's eyes stayed on Liu Zeqing's body.

This is almost explicitly implied.

How could Liu Zeqing not understand, he secretly complained in his heart. But it's hard to refuse.

Without him, Liu Zeqing knows best when to exert himself and when to slide his head.

Liu Zeqing was also able to fight at the beginning, and when the Qing army entered the customs for the first time, he fought fiercely with the Qing army outside Zunhua City, and finally retreated, which can be regarded as some merits. Compared with Liu Zeqing's ability to fight, his ability to climb is first-class.

For example, this time Liu Zeqing rose again, because of Zhou Yanru.

Just last year, Liu Zeqing knew that Zhou Yanru was about to enter Beijing. He sent a horse to report the itinerary every day, greeted Zhou Yanru on the way, and personally escorted and gave gifts, and it is said that he gave 20,000 taels of gold. Therefore, as soon as Zhou Yanru came to power, it did not take long for Liu Zeqing to serve as the commander-in-chief of Shandong again.

Now Liu Zeqing's backstage is Zhou Yanru.

It's just that his benefactor Zhou Yanru is not in a good situation now.

Without him, Emperor Chongzhen trusted Zhou Yanru very much, and even said: "I listen to Mr. in the world." ”

However, Emperor Chongzhen is too love-hate and hateful. The world listens to the act of love, but you have to do bad things, and when you hate it, it is also very ruthless, Yuan Chonghuan is a lesson from the past. Why Yang Sichang committed suicide is that he sees it too clearly. He committed suicide, and Chongzhen still felt a little guilty, but when Chongzhen wanted to kill, it was not just his own business.

Is Zhou Yanru the kind of talent who has the ability to turn the tide?

Of course not.

Therefore, since Zhou Yanru took office, the situation in the world has not only not improved, but has slipped for the worse.

Of course, this is not Zhou Yanru's reason, a lot of it is the inertia of the previous policy, even Zhuge Liang can't turn the situation around all at once.

Not to mention whether Zhou Yanru has the ability to turn the tide, just to say, is Emperor Chongzhen patient to wait slowly?

Emperor Chongzhen had patience, and the situation in the world would not have fallen to this point.

Therefore, since he has been in power, Zhou Yanru has been criticized and opposed by the people of the world and is considered a traitor, and Liu Zeqing, a general who has taken the road of Zhou Yanru, is naturally regarded as a traitor.

Fortunately, although Zhou Yanru was impeached and criticized, Zhou Yanru's ability to fight for the party can be said to be first-class and powerful, and those opponents are also pressed down, but Liu Zeqing's own foundation is too dark. Among the rebels, it has long been rumored that Liu Zeqing's department and Zuo Liangyu's department are the two most corrupt military disciplines in the official army. Even Liu Zeqing is still above Zuo Liangyu on this. After Zuo Liangyu was defeated in Zhuxian Town, he recruited troops to expand his strength, and all kinds of messy people were recruited into the army, so that the corruption of military discipline in the left army surpassed that of Liu Zeqing's department.

With such a criminal record, Zhou Yanru had to write a letter to tell him to be honest.

And the reason why Hou Sui was released from prison was also because of Zhou Yanru's suggestion, even if it was for Zhou Yanru's sake, Liu Zeqing couldn't go too far.

And Liu Zeqing has also inquired clearly, the thief army on the other side of the river is neither the camp nor the Cao camp, but the Xiao Yuan camp.

Xiao Yuan Ying, he Liu Zeqing is too familiar with him, and his subordinates are just defeated.

Whether he can fight under Kaifeng City, he Liu Zeqing doesn't dare to pack tickets, but whether he can win Xiao Yuanying and play a beautiful victory, Liu Zeqing is full of confidence.

"Overseer." Liu Zeqing said loudly: "The last general is willing to be the vanguard, set up a camp on the south bank of the river, Zhujiazhai and Kaifeng North Gate, but a few miles away, even if the last general does not need to Kaifeng City, but also dare to establish a Yongdao in the north of Kaifeng City, straight to Kaifeng North Gate." Open a gap for Kaifeng City. ”

"Okay." Hou Sui said: "General Liu is really loyal and brave. Since this is not the case, the official sent someone to Kaifeng City, and agreed that three days later, General Liu crossed the river to the south and attacked at the same time as Kaifeng City, and the two sides met in the north of Kaifeng City. ”

The two sides came and went, and several days passed. In Kaifeng Prefecture, the officers and troops on the north bank of the Yellow River are all in full swing preparing for battle.

In the past few days, Zhang Xuan and Yuan Shizhong have not been idle. They saw the hope of breaking the city, and they stepped up the siege of the city day by day, and Hu Quede also racked his brains before he managed to play a big game again, and suddenly blew up a big gap.

This gap is not a steep slope as above, but a gentle slope, and the remaining foundation of the city wall is a little more than two zhang at most. If you break through here, you can rush into the city, and Yuan Shizhong has made a lot of money

, sent his right-hand man, Wang Xianzu.

But this battle was a solid fiasco.

Even Wang Xianzu's body did not come back, it was only a human head.

Wang Xianzu's eyes were round, his eyes were blazing, and his mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something. When Yuan Shizhong saw it, he almost burst his eyes and gritted his teeth.

Wang Xianzu has followed him for many years, like a brother, but he doesn't want to fold under this Kaifeng city, and there is no corpse to die, so how can he not hate.

"Chen Yongfu, I will kill you." Yuan Shizhong said.

Zhang Xuan sighed and said with some guilt: "It's the little brother who thinks badly." I thought that the official army had nothing to do, but I didn't want to open the city and build a second wall within a few days. ”

"It's not your fault, I'm in a hurry." Yuan Shizhong said.

As soon as the gap was opened, Zhang Xuan wanted to send the pursuing headquarters to rush into the city, but Yuan Shizhong was selfish, so he sent his most elite men, that is, Wang Xianzu's department, but he didn't want to, and they all folded in the city at once. Together with more than 1,000 elite rebels. They are all Xiao Yuanying's sharp knives.

As soon as Yuan Shizhong thought of it, he felt a sense of pain, but he also knew that this was not Zhang Xuan's judgment error.

Anything can happen on the battlefield, and life is normal.

"Let's not talk about it here." Yuan Shizhong ordered someone to place Wang Xianzu's head alive, and ordered someone to build a body with precious wood, and bury it after the spirit stopped.

Then he asked Zhang Xuan and said, "What should be the current situation?" ”

Zhang Xuan also groaned for a while.

In fact, Zhang Xuan also has some fears at the moment, although his department is elite, but the number of people is too small, this secret loss, Yuan Shizhong eats, Yuan Shizhong can afford to eat, but Zhang Zhen eats, he can't afford to eat.

More than 1,000 people were wiped out, which was enough to make Zhang Xuan break his muscles and bones, especially since there were few qualified generals under his command, and if he lost another general, Zhang Xuan didn't know what to do.

Thinking of a way now, Zhang Xuan couldn't think of it for a while.

How long and high the city wall behind the north city wall is, and what is the layout inside, Zhang Xuan has no information, so he can only guess, and Zhang Xuan can't think of a complete strategy for a while.

Just when the two of them were meditating, someone outside came to report that King Chuang sent someone to deliver a message and ordered the two of them to go to Yan Li Village.

Zhang Xuan and Yuan Shizhong glanced at each other, and immediately understood that the news of this defeat had spread to the camp.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, the king is called, and the two of them must go.

Therefore, they arranged the affairs of the camp, took Luo Dai and Yuan Shimin and rode out of the camp in hundreds and headed towards Yan Li Village.

It's just that Zhang Xuan has a bad premonition in his heart. In this situation, I am afraid that there is no good feast.
