Chapter 82: The Battle of Yunyang II
Overnight, Baihe County became an empty city.
When Gao Yigong came to Baihe County, he even felt that many bonfires had just been extinguished. He couldn't help but sigh: "Hands and feet are fast enough." ”
In fact, Gao Yigong also grabbed Wang Guangtai's tail, but he didn't dare to pursue. In such a place with complex terrain. Gao Yigong did not dare to attack easily. If you are ambushed, it will be a bad thing. However, it was immediately clear to him that something was wrong.
The frequency of attacks by mountain people on Gao Yigong's men and horses has increased greatly.
When Dang Shousu and Gao Yigong converged with the people of the headquarters, as soon as the two met, they immediately found that the situation was not optimistic.
In the mountains, shoot you a few arrows from afar, or dig a few traps for you, so that the whole army will not be able to live in peace, after all, in the mountains, there are only a few roads that can walk a large group of people and horses, or the terrain.
But there are countless places that mountain people can climb.
Gao Yigong immediately sent someone to contact Huang Long.
This is a little far from Huanglong's cottage, which is a little to the south.
However, even so, Huanglong came over quickly.
There is no other reason, Huanglong is a part left after following Zhang Xianzhong into Sichuan, although it is now independent, but it is still a line of Shaanxi Liukou, and many human relationships are cut and messed up, and he knows that his power is weak, and he has to deal with these bigwigs of the righteous army one by one, and strive for no one to be offended. Don't look at Li Zicheng's death, breaking into the camp and being lonely, but it is easy to destroy Huanglong's cottage with just the people of Gao Yigong's headquarters.
Huang Long is an understanding person, so naturally he will not toast or eat or drink.
However, even so, as soon as Huang Long came over, he expressed his attitude and said: "King Chuang treats me with the grace of heaven and earth, since General Gao sent someone to invite me, I dare not come, but now I also hang the official seal of Great Xia." Immediately, Huang Long took out an official seal, and when he looked at it, he saw that what was engraved on it was the thousand households of Yunyang Mansion in Great Xia.
This Qianhu official is actually an official title similar to that of Tusi.
These people in the mountains of Yunyang. If you really want to send people to sweep away, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses, and it is difficult to use troops in the mountains, and if there are less, you may not be able to defeat these mountain people, and if you have more, I am afraid that it will affect other strategic directions.
Therefore, Great Xia's policy towards him was to appease them and let them be the emperor of the soil themselves, as long as they didn't come out to make trouble, they wouldn't care about them. When the world is peaceful in the future, it's not too late to clean them up.
Huang Long said: "Loyalty and righteousness can't be both, I will bring a message to General Gao at most, and I can't do anything else." ”
Gao Yigong said: "Okay, let's ask Huang Qianhu to tell the people in the surrounding cottages that my army is just crossing the border, and it won't be here for long."
Stay. I, Gao, am willing to leave 10,000 taels of silver to buy money. ”
Huang Long sighed slightly, and said: "General Gao, it's not that I don't help you, but it's useless to help you, although silver is good, it's just a stone in the mountains, and it's useless, where can General Wang Er use salt to offer a reward." Compared with silver, salt makes Shan Ming more tempted. ”
Gao Yigong's heart moved slightly, and said, "Please also ask Huang Qianhu to point out a clear road." ”
Huang Long pondered for a while and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver, although you can't buy everyone, you can still buy some stockades." The rest is to ask General Gao to pass quickly, there is no other way. ”
According to Huang Long, although silver is of little use in the mountains, many places in the mountains are bartered. Silver is not needed at all. But silver is not always a stone, someone will want it. Under the Silver Bullet Offensive, Gao Yigong's marching speed increased somewhat. But it still can't be avoided, sneak attacks again and again.
After all, among these sneak attacks, there are of course mountain people, but there are also people from Wang Guangtai's headquarters.
This makes Gao Yigong feel like he is in the mud.
If it weren't for Li Guo's previous promise, Gao Yigong would have wanted to turn around and go to Sichuan, and he wouldn't be entangled here.
In Yunyang City, Wang Guangtai looked at the recent military report, and there was a trace of worry in his eyes. The gap in strength cannot be completely offset by geographical advantages. Now there are no more than 10,000 people in the entire Yunyang Mansion. Most of them are the remnants of Wang Guangen.
Wang Guangen was transferred to the Beijing camp and is now driving with Wuchang. Gao Doushu sits in Xiangyang City, and in addition to the land of several prefectures, he is also responsible for Wang Guangtai's department, Li Guo's department, Yuan Zong's first department, and Yang Chengzu left some people, distributed among several mansions, there are about sixty or seventy thousand people, and after the Qing army went north, although Xiangyang is an important town, but there is a buffer in Henan, it is already relatively safe, so there are not too many soldiers guarding the town.
Wang Guangtai has now exhausted all means.
can't resist the pressure of Gao Yigong's army, and suppresses it step by step.
You can only step back. Wang Guangtai calculated, a few days later, Gao Yigong was about to come to the city.
He had already sent a letter of help to Xiangyang, but he didn't know what the result was. Wang Guangtai and his brother Wang Guangen have been following Gao Doushu for a long time. can also be regarded as Gao Doushu's descendant, he believes that Gao Doushu will not give up Yunyang, but there has been no movement for so long, but I don't know why?
In the city of Xiangyang.
Yunyang's urgent information was pressed in front of Gao Doushu.
Although he is worried about the situation in Yunyang, what he is most worried about is not Yunyang, but about the disaster within the Xiao Wall.
Xiangyang City, or half of the troops in Xiangyang Town, are the remnants of the camp. This is the biggest hidden danger in Gao Doushu's eyes. It is because of this problem that Gao Doushu will be from Yunyang
A lot of horses have been transferred, resulting in the current situation of weak troops in Yunyang.
At the beginning, Luo Yulong withdrew the army in Xiangyang City. Among them, Bai Wang's department was split into the Xia army to supplement the losses, so that among the remnants of the camp, an important component force, that is, the Bai Wang department, was annexed, whether it was to kill Li Zicheng or to appease the remaining generals who broke into the camp, it was not good to do too much.
This part of the people was left behind.
Later, with the appearance of Gao Yigong, Luo Yulong ordered Li Zicheng to be buried and posthumously crowned emperor. Named Li Guo as the king of Shun.
However, Li Guo, the prince, is far from being comparable to Gao Jie and Zheng Zhilong. It's just a fictitious title. But even the false title greatly increased Li Guo's voice in Xiangyang, and also made Gao Doushu feel a lot of pressure. Gao Doushu sensitively felt that Li Guo seemed to have ulterior motives.
It's just that he has no evidence, and he doesn't understand whether it is Li Guo's ambition alone, or the ambition of all the remnants of the camp.
Gao Doushu has always been quiet and calm on the surface, but he has secretly made various arrangements. Just wait, wait for Li Guo to show his feet first.
"My lord, His Royal Highness King Shun asks to see you." A servant said.
Gao Doushu's eyes lit up slightly, and he said secretly in his heart: "Li Guo can't hold his breath anymore." ”
Many times, the first to do it first reveals the flaws, compared to Gao Doushu's cunning and cunning, Li Guo is still a little tender in terms of power and strategy, Yunyang is the starting place of Gao Doushu, how can Gao Doushu not worry about the safety of Yunyang. It's just that Li Guo moved first after all.
Expose yourself to Gao Doushu's gaze.
Gao Doushu gently let go of the brush in his hand and looked at a big "Jing" in his hand. The word, feeling that it was beyond the reach of his life's work, asked the people around him to put it away, and said, "Please." ”
"Xiangyang Governor Gao Doushu pays a visit to His Royal Highness King Shun." Gao Doushu said: "I was busy with this paragraph, but I forgot that King Shun was still in Xiangyang City, but I didn't know why I didn't enter Beijing?" ”
When Gao Doushu asked, Li Guo's expression froze slightly. With this bit of unnaturalness, he said: "It's not the Northwest War yet, it's the time to use the troops, and it's not good for me to leave." ”
Luo Yulong summoned Li Guo to Beijing, wanting Li Guo to build an imperial mausoleum for Li Zicheng. Of course, it is not that there is no house arrest, but I don't dare to do it too obviously, for fear of provoking a mutiny, I am just persuading, and I don't dare to force it, but Li Guo is holding on and not returning to Beijing, which can already explain a lot of problems.
Li Guo seemed to fight back, and said: "When the thieves didn't know the sky, they invaded Yunyang, and now Yunyang is in danger, but I don't know how the adults are going to resist?" ”
Gao Doushu said: "The battle of Xiangyang has just passed, and I really can't move troops anymore, I have already written to the imperial court, and the imperial army will arrive soon." It was General Wang Guangen who led the troops to help, and I was a scholar, and General Wang was responsible for the use of troops, and as soon as General Wang moved, I was relieved. ”
