Chapter 149 Commanding troops in troubled times is the king
Gao He ran back and forth like a shuttle this day, and ran through several major yamen in the morning, and finally the most difficult thing was the negotiation with Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
How can this be discussed?!
I just lost 50,000 yuan yesterday, and I came to the door again today, so I want to be shameless? But the captain had an order and did not dare to disobey it.
Gao He came to Jinyintan in the afternoon and asked to see Lin Chong.
Lin Chong originally slept in the morning, but when he heard that Yang Zhi had woken up, he went to visit with Lu Zhishen.
Yang Zhi has a separate tent to prevent information from leaking. Although he woke up, his face was pale and his voice was weak.
An Daoquan's statement is that if it weren't for alcohol, saline and honey water, he would have died a long time ago. Since you wake up, it means that the most dangerous stage is over, and you can slowly recover after a month or two of rest.
Yang Zhi first thanked Lin Chong for saving his life, and then told him what he saw and heard in the palace marshal's mansion, worried about the situation in the mountain camp.
Lu Zhishen originally had a negative opinion, but when he saw that he was desperately trying to come to ventilate the news, he was relieved. reassured him, and even wrote about the total annihilation of the party's cavalry and bandits last night.
Knowing that his intelligence was sent late, and Lin Chong was able to win a big victory without using information, Yang Zhi was a little depressed, and said self-deprecatingly, "Brother is taking precautions, but the younger brother has added to the snake." β
Lin Chong was overjoyed when he heard him change his words to call himself the younger brother, Yang Zhi's kung fu was very good, if he hadn't had a charge bonus that day, I don't know what the situation would have been.
The mountain battalion can be joined by Yang Zhi, and Lu Zhishen will become his right-hand man, plus the assistance of Shi Qian, An Daoquan, and Sun Erniang, it is completely possible to form a capable backbone framework.
With this framework in place, all that's left is to add bricks. At that moment, he took advantage of the situation to invite Yang Zhi to join the mountain camp again. and revealed his ideas to Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi.
In this era, the Western Xia, Liao, Jurchen, and Tubo attacked each other and disputed each other, which was a sign of troubled times. Commanding soldiers in troubled times is the king's way, and mastering real soldiers and horses can protect oneself.
As long as five people form a group, they will be able to make achievements in the northwest and make meritorious contributions to expand the army. Once the number of soldiers and horses under his jurisdiction reaches 10,000, he will have his own influence, and the officials, the court and the western army will also look at it differently.
Don't look at the Great Song Dynasty with civil and imperial martial arts, take the Western Army as an example, the major generals are all self-respecting and do not listen to the announcement, and no one will look at the civil officials sent by the imperial court in the past, at best it is just an ornament.
Speaking of this, Yang Zhi's heart moved, "My brother was a little confused, but right now, Kaifeng Mansion and Sanya want to kill me quickly, but I am afraid that it will bring trouble to the mountain camp." β
Lu Zhishen patted his chest, "I'm afraid of a bird, Gao Yu is a scoundrel who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, it's a big deal to fuck him!" β
It happened that the doorman informed Gao He that he had come to see him again, and Lin Chong estimated that nine out of ten he was talking about the Iron Harrier.
smiled and said to Yang Zhi, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive, someone from the palace marshal's mansion is coming, I will go to receive it." Guessing what the virtuous brother is worried about, it should be over. β
Gao He asked Lin Chong, so he naturally put down his body and said a few simple greetings, "Congratulations to Commander Lin for his meritorious service, and the palace marshal's mansion is not respectful." β
Lin Chong didn't look at the ordinary gift list at all, and politely put the gift list aside.
"The old man cares, I, Lin, am also from the palace marshal's mansion, and they are all a family, why bother to divide it so clearly. What's more, last night was just to drive away a few thieves, it's not a big deal, how dare you be so excited? β
Gao He's heart tightened, Lin Chong didn't look at the gift list, he must ask for a lot, if the lion opened his mouth, this matter would have to go through several twists and turns.
"Commander Lin said kind words, you are now a guard and a pro-army, a favorite general in front of the official family, and a pillar of the Great Song Dynasty."
After finishing speaking, he went straight to the topic, "Commander Lin, Gao He is here to walk with the tolerance of Honglu Temple, Kaifeng Mansion and the Western Xia Mission. Because of the sparse life of the Western Xia mission, some of the guards got lost and did not return. Someone has seen them haunting the neighborhood, but you don't know about it? β
Do you want to easily resolve it in the name of getting lost? How naΓ―ve!
"The lost messenger, Lin has never seen it, but last night, there was indeed a group of thieves who attacked and robbed the camp, and all of them have been beheaded by our army!"
Lin Chong's last sentence was sonorous and domineering.
The officials of the Western Xia Mission couldn't help but be annoyed when they heard Lin Chong's bad tone, a small commander dared to go against the Great Xia Kingdom!
The tall party envoy stood up, waved his fist and said arrogantly, "We, the 800,000 people who control the strings in the Great Xia Kingdom, will never be humiliated!" Our guards have been attacked by you, and if there is even the slightest damage, I dare not guarantee that there will be no unforeseen incidents on the border between the two countries! β
Lin Chong has always been contemptuous of this kind of paper tiger, looked at him coldly, and said word by word, "If you want to fight, I will fight!" β
The counterattack on the spot made the messenger choke all of a sudden, pointing at Lin Chong, "You~you ......" but he couldn't speak for a long time.
He was deflated, and the officials of Honglu Temple were not happy, and he could receive a lot of benefits from the other party, so he naturally wanted to escort him.
"Commander Lin, don't be rude in front of your allies, and be cautious in your words and deeds. The diplomacy between the two countries is no trivial matter, and you must not be ruined because of you! β
Ma egg, dog-legged traitor is the most hateful!
Lin Chong slapped the table, stood up suddenly, got down and grabbed the official's wrist, and walked out. "Come with me!"
The official's face changed drastically, and he heard that after killing people on the battlefield, some people would lose control and go crazy. What is this Lin Chong going to do? Seeing him open his eyes in anger, he can't be crazy!
"Lord Lin, you have something to say, it's not a proper system!"
Lin Chong didn't care about it, and dragged him to the camp in the east, and Lu Zhishen also took Gao He and others all the way over.
What caught my eye was a mess, broken tents, all kinds of debris, the corpses of the Western Xia heavy horses, and armor scattered everywhere.
The blood stains on the big beach on the ground are shocking, and they can still smell a strong smell of blood, and the little officials of Honglu Temple can't help but retch.
In the open space that had just been reorganized, there were forty-nine tall coffins brought by the local security guards and the villagers.
Two old men with white beards and solemn expressions groomed the last few deceased, an ancient ritual that always exudes serenity and solemnity.
The groomed deceased is wrapped in a clean white cloth and gently placed on the meadow by the villagers, waiting for their relatives to place them in the coffin.
Rows of corpses of mountain battalion soldiers wrapped in white cloth, like a blanket of silver, were extremely glaring in the ruins.
The nearby Taoist priests and great monks also recited the scriptures over and over again, respectfully and seriously relieving the martyrs of the dead.
Some of the deceased's brothers and relatives were in the army, and they had already been found, beating their chests in front of the corpses, and they were crying loudly. Those relatives who heard the news had already burned paper money to mourn their deceased relatives.
The eastern half of the camp is as holy as snow.
