Chapter 22: The Battle of Donglu

Fuyang is too small after all, not only too small, but also in Hebei, the place of the four wars, which is a very painful thing for Li Chengzong, in order to expand the living space, the Fuyang Army Command in Li Chengzong's initiative, decisively launched the Donglu Campaign, according to the operational deployment, the main force of the Fuyang Army headed by Li Chengzong is divided into two roads, one way under the leadership of Su Lie from Fuyang to Bohai County, the other road is led by Li Chengzong himself, came across the sea, landed in Donglai, the two armies are like two big pincers, the Donglu is encircled.

The Ludong generation is the weak point of the righteous army and the official army and the family, and the Fuyang army did not encounter much resistance after the killing, and soon the two armies met in Shouguang, so that half of Bohai County, half of Beihai County and the entire Donglai County fell into the hands of the Fuyang Army.

Due to the suddenness of the Fuyang Army, Qi Gongshun, the original separatist force of Donglai County, also led 30,000 troops to attack the county seat of Beihai County, but he didn't know that his nest was ended, he had already captured the outer city, and continued to attack the inner city, how do you know that at this time, the heaven-damned Fuyang Army came from Shouguang, and Qi Gongshun and other so-called righteous troops, the Fuyang Army is a high-speed mobile force dominated by cavalry and carriage infantry, plus Su Lie, who is responsible for the front-line command, pays attention to the use of troops is a fast word, So it is not surprising that Qi Gongshun wants a tragedy.

At this time, Qi Gongshun knew that Beihai County had run out of food, and he proudly thought that victory was in front of him, so he was a little lax, but he didn't expect that there was a figure in this city who left a mark in history, Liu Lan and Liu Wenyu, this person likes to read scriptures and history, and is good at success or failure. He once served as the secretary of Poyang County in the Great Sui Dynasty. He gathered more than 100 people in his city who were not afraid of death to launch a surprise attack on Qi Gongshun, Qi Gongshun was unprepared and suffered a big loss, coupled with the support of other aspects of the county, Qi Gongshun could not support it, threw down the camp, and retreated.

At this stall, Su Dingfang came, Qi Gongshun is also a hero, after learning that there are unknown forces to join the Beihai battlefield, Qi Gongshun is not panicked, in line with the mode of combat in this era, he plans to put on a posture to meet the battle, "pass on the order of the marshal, set up a formation to ask the enemy ......." Qi Gongshun just gave an order, his troops hurriedly moved, ready to deal with the enemy's attack.

How do you know that Lao Su on the other side didn't give him a chance to set up a formation at all, "Qi Gongshun is still planning to play a battle with me?" I'm sorry, Lao Qi Gongshun, Lao Su doesn't want to ink with you, brothers, follow me!!! ”

After Su Lie finished speaking, he stepped forward and took the lead in the charge, well, the officers of the Fuyang Army had a deep influence on Li Chengzong, they all liked to take the lead, under the leadership of Su Lie, they only used one charge to defeat Qi Gongshun's department, as for Qi Gongshun was poked to death by Lao Su Yi, most of his tens of thousands of troops became prisoners of the Fuyang Army.

"Beihai City? Isn't this the fucking Qingzhou Yidu City, which is called a city? Where was Fuyang called a city before? Su Lie looked at the majestic Yidu City and sighed with emotion, and just as he was sighing, a communication soldier came over, "Deputy Marshal, this is a letter from the Great Commander to you........"

"For me? Take it and let me take a look....... "Su Lie took Li Chengzong's letter to himself and browsed it so roughly, it turned out that because there were many craftsmen in Yidu City, Li Chengzong had explained that he would rather those gentry die than lose too many craftsmen, hehehe, gentry? Lao Su came here to grab land, and they must resist.......

After thinking about it, Su Lie called over a subordinate named Jiang Lin, "Jiang Lin, you go into the city and let them know the current affairs....... Su Lie said to his own soldiers.

"喏~~~~"

The gentry of Yidu City also saw the abnormality outside the city, they didn't care about the Fuyang Army, they only cared about their own interests and powerful position, so Jiang Lin was bored when he entered the city this time, and in the end he could only go back and tell Su Lie unhappy.

"Toast and don't eat and drink, give them some color and look at ....." Su Lie was furious after listening to Jiang Lin's report.

The Fuyang Army was quickly equipped with a stone thrower and a three-bow bed crossbow, and countless thunderbolts and crossbow arrows soon made the turtles in the city know what the Fuyang Army was. Qi Gongshun attacked the gate of Yidu City, which had not been broken for a month, but it became a papier-mΓ’chΓ© existence in the Fuyang army, and tens of thousands of Fuyang troops quickly entered Yidu City, and a few gentry who resolutely resisted were soon used by Su Lie to establish his authority to destroy the full gate, Liu Lan saw that there was nothing to do, and the general trend had gone, so he had to call the rest of the people to surrender.

With the help of Liu Lan, Su Lie successfully took over Yidu City, and the craftsmen who had repeatedly explained by Li Chengzong before were also properly protected, and the social order of Yidu City quickly settled down.

Liu Lan saw that the Fuyang Army was different from other rebel armies, and he thought that it was more promising to join the Fuyang Army, so he invested in the Fuyang Army to be a military aircraft staff officer of the Fuyang Army, and it happened that another so-called leader of the Righteous Army, Zang Junxiang, also came to fight for Beihai City, Liu Lan said to Su Lie: "Deputy Marshal, Zang Junxiang is still far from here, he must not be able to prepare, please speed up the attack on the enemy camp." ”

Su Lie adopted his advice, personally led 3,000 elite cavalry, secretly and concurrently, when approaching the Zang army for dozens of miles, Liu Lan and Jiang Lin led a death squad of less than 100 people, disguised as Zang Jun, mixed into the barracks, and found out the truth of Zang's army. In the middle of the night, they suddenly entered the commander's tent, and the Zang army was in chaos. Su Lie led the army to cover up and kill, captured and beheaded thousands, and the cunning Zang Junxiang escaped with embarrassed makeup.

Since Zang Junxiang was defeated, the Fuyang army naturally carried forward the spirit of continuous combat, and pursued Zang Junxiang's troops relentlessly, and after a fierce battle, they captured a lot of grain, grass and armor.

After the Battle of Yidu, the Fuyang Army completely gained a foothold in Ludong, and most of the land of Qilu fell into the hands of Li Chengzong and Su Lie.

"Brother Xian, now most of the land of Qilu and Fuyang are in the hands of you and me...... At present, the imperial court is no longer able to do it...... The change of dynasty is already a certainty....... "Su Lie asked in a roundabout way, should Li Chengzong play his own banner?

In response to Su Lie's inquiry, Li Chengzong gave a positive answer, "What the eldest brother said is extremely true, if there is chaos today, the imperial court has lost the hearts of the people........ and now the land of Donglu is in the hands of you and my brother...... It's a good time to make a name for us......."

Su Lie was very happy to hear Li Chengzong's words, "Hahaha, brother Xian, then what are you going to call Wang??" ”

"Claim the king?? Hahaha, big brother, have you forgotten the words I said to you before the battle began? Li Chengzong laughed when he heard Su Lie's words.

"Do you mean to build high walls, accumulate grain, and slow down your reign?" Su Lie was stunned for a moment, after he finished saying this, he tasted it carefully, and praised again and again, "Wonderful, really wonderful, according to these proverbs of the virtuous brother, we can consolidate the defense of the base area, reserve sufficient grain and grass, as long as we don't come forward to claim the king first, we can avoid the spearhead of the heroes, accumulate strength, strike later, and compete for dominance in the world." ”
