"What kind of luck is this?" Cheng Mingzhen grinned and smiled bitterly. He was still thinking about how to make the Zhaozhou battalion behave mediocre in the next battle to avoid being noticed. Unexpectedly, the current affairs were not up to anyone, and the Wei County guards actually surrendered without a fight.

This time, even if the Yuzhou battalion wants to keep a low profile, it can't keep a low profile. Only 5,000 people were dispatched to capture a county for the Tang Dynasty, such a brilliant record was not common even at the beginning of the Li family's army. And there are only five and a half counties under Dou Jiande's rule, and he lost one in the blink of an eye, so he can't sit idly by.

"Anyway, people are looking for the county town. See for yourself! Wang Ermao shrugged, looking helpless. As a friend who has known each other for many years, he can guess Cheng Mingzhen's current plans. But the plan did not change quickly, and the whole Wei County had already been arrested, and the general manager of the Yuzhou battalion did not have to force the other party to surrender.

"Is Koji's son-in-law surnamed Cui?" Cheng Mingzhen sighed and asked in a low voice. For Cui Shang, he had a slight impression. The other party fled very decisively on the battlefield, so that he didn't have time to send pursuers to intercept him.

"Who else could there be if it wasn't him?" Wang Ermao frowned and pursed his lips, as if he had eaten a hundred flies. "Kneeling outside the tent of the Chinese army, with a piece of white kudzu on his head. You hurry up and meet him, otherwise he won't freeze to death, and he will be scared to death! ”

"He should be a child of the Qinghe Cui clan, right?" Cheng Mingzhen thought for a moment and continued to ask.

"Who knows if it's Qinghe Cui or Bo Ling Cui. Nothing good anyway! If you want to talk about eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, fish and meat people, you are doing everything. The skills brought out of the mother's womb don't need to be learned at all! "When it comes to the so-called children of the family, Wang Ermao has no good words on his lips.

"I think of this man!" Cheng Mingzhen patted his head, and a smile bloomed on his face. "He and Koji Liang turned out to be Wang Cong's subordinates. When Dou Jiande took the river, he captured them alive. That's why I became the official of the Great Xia Kingdom! ”

"You're saying he's the one who fights the enemy with a woman's skirt?" Wang Ermao's brows furrowed slightly, a little unable to believe his ears.

"It's not him, who else can there be!" Cheng Mingzhen smiled and nodded, and then shook his head again.

"Lao Dou is really good at employing people!" Wang Ermao also shook his head and smiled bitterly, not knowing how to say that Dou Jiande was good. When Dou Jiande waved his army to attack Hejian, he once encountered a very absurd joke. It is still widely spread in the army.

At that time, the order of Shucheng County was the current Wei County Taishou Koji. And the county lord, also surnamed Cui, has a prominent family background and is known as a talented man. When Dou Jiande's troops approached the city, Lu Liang and Cui Xiancheng did not dare to lead the troops to meet them. Out of loyalty to the Great Sui, he was also unwilling to surrender immediately. So the two sons-in-law came up with a very brilliant idea, and opened the gates on all sides, drove all the women of the city to the city walls, and ordered them to weep and fan the wind outside the city with their skirts. It is said that in this way, the wrath of the earth god can be aroused, the earth will crack, and the Dou family army will be lifted up and down.

As a result, it was Shi Chan who took the lead in the charge. I haven't read a few folk books at all, and I don't know what an empty city plan is. I don't know how to respect ghosts and gods and avoid bad luck. When he saw that the gates of the city were wide open, he immediately rode his horse straight forward. Before the two of them could finish crying with the women, they were captured by Shi Zhan, who was incomprehensible.

According to Shi Zhan's idea, this kind of birdman pretending to be a ghost is better to kill it with one sword. But Dou Jiande thought that Koji Liang was a loyal minister, so instead of killing him, he entrusted him with a heavy task.

Wang Ermao and Cheng Mingzhen knew that Wei County was too shou of Koji Liang, which was the Koji County Order that had been captured by Shi Zhansheng. But he never expected that Cui Juncheng, who could come up with a "clever plan" to break the enemy with a woman's skirt, actually preserved his wealth and wealth, and was still entrusted with a heavy task by Dou Jiande. This kind of person fled back to Anyang, and he was willing to lead the remnants of the soldiers to sacrifice his life to fight with the Zhaozhou battalion, which is strange!

"Call him in. You go in person and be as polite as possible to him. By the way, please bring me koji, too! Wiping away the tears that came out of laughter, Cheng Mingzhen pursed his lips and ordered.

Seeing that the smile on his good friend's face was a little strange, Wang Ermao lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What are you going to do with their husband and son-in-law?" There's no shortage of waste snacks here! ”

"Waste has the benefit of waste, go quickly!" Cheng Mingzhen pushed Wang Ermao and urged with a smile. He now finally had a good idea to keep his head down. It's going to fall on the head of the son-in-law of Koji Liangweng. That is, this waste can be so useful, if it is replaced by someone else, it is really difficult to fool it!

"Be careful, don't go overboard!" Wang Ermao didn't know what the hell Cheng Mingzhen was fighting in his stomach, anyway, he knew that it was no good thing. glanced at the other party and turned around to leave the account.

A moment later, the son-in-law rubbed his knees against the ground and climbed in step by step. Before he could climb to the center of the military tent, he immediately fell to the ground and cried, pleading in his mouth: "Please general, for the sake of the 400,000 fathers and elders of Wei County, put away the knife for the time being." I'm waiting, and I'm willing to be a cow and a horse for the general! ”

"Hurry up, please get up, what is this called!" Cheng Mingzhen hurriedly rushed forward, grabbed the arms of the two and pulled the two people up, "You are twice as old as me, let the elders bow down, isn't it a discount for my life?" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Koji was startled and quickly knelt down again. "Little Lao'er didn't mean to curse the general. Little Lao'er didn't dare to borrow a gut! ”

"Get up, get up. I can't hold you two at the same time! Cheng Mingzhen felt a tumbling in his stomach, put away his smiling face, and ordered in a low voice.

"Yes, General!" Koji Liang's knees were like a bamboo plank, and when he heard that Cheng Mingzhen was impatient, he immediately bounced himself up.

"Come on, move a seat for Koji County Shou and Cui Changshi!" Cheng Mingzhen smiled and shouted outside orders. "Make another pot of strong tea to warm up the two adults!"

"The general of the defeated army, how dare you sit in front of the general!" Koji Liang took half a step back and gave up his hand again and again. "The general doesn't kill me, it's already extraordinarily gracious. I dare not know how to advance or retreat! ”

"This battle is not commanded by you, how can you count the general of the defeated army?" Cheng Mingzhen's head tilted to the side and asked with a frown.

"Little old man......" Koji was stunned by the question, and he didn't know how to answer. In fact, since the arrival of Lord Chincha, he has been deprived of command of the battle. But if it weren't for Lord Qincha's substitution, Wei County Xiangyong would only have been defeated more miserably and faster, and there would never be any chance of recovery.

didn't wait for him and Cui Shang to understand the taste. Cheng Mingzhen sighed, shook his head and said. "I asked a few people, and they all said that Koji Taishou was not going to fight. It was forced by Dou Jiande's Qin that he had to give up his own advantages and go out of the city to fight with me. And that Qincha relied on Dou Jiande to support him behind his back and command indiscriminately. Therefore, it led to a great chaos in the brave formations of the townships of Wei County, and they collapsed before fighting. Isn't it, Koji-sama? ”

"This-" Koji Ryu couldn't pull his face for a moment, and hesitated and groaned.

"Yes, yes, that's it!" Cui Shang was so smart that he immediately climbed up the stick stretched out by Cheng Mingzhen. We were afraid of the power of the Tang Dynasty, and we didn't dare to go out of the city to fight. If it weren't for the thought of King Dou's appearance, the virtue of treating each other. When the generals are in the city, we will surrender. But the ....... of the Qincha ""The mistake cannot be counted on the head of the Chincha-sama!" Koji Ryu suddenly became angry, turned his head, and glared at his son-in-law fiercely.

"Little Lao'er is a civil official and doesn't know how to fight!" He made a long bow at Cheng Mingzhen, and he explained in a low voice, "I didn't dare to go out of the city to pick up the general's tiger beard." But Zhang Yiwen, the county prince, relied on his ability to speak in front of King Xia, and forced the little old man to go out of the city to fight. Coincidentally, Lord Qin arrived and disagreed with Zhang Juncheng. The two competed for the command of Xiang Yong in public. The general's eyes were like torches, and when he saw the opportunity, he attacked decisively, so he killed the Wei soldiers and defeated them. Afterwards, the general was merciful and did not want to kill more. Xiao Lao'er's son-in-law was moved by the general's benevolence and righteousness, and decided to dedicate Anyang City to His Majesty the Tang Emperor in its entirety! ”

A few words, said without leakage. not only received Cheng Mingzhen's hints, but also slapped the other party's ass without a trace. As for their sons-in-law, they have also changed from two wrecks to good officials who love the people and are persecuted by traitors. It can be called an iron mouth and steel teeth!

Cheng Mingzhen saw that the other party was on the road, and his smile became more and more kind. "I just mean, Dou Jiande has been running southern Hebei for a while, how can he be easily brought down by me. In this battle, it is not so much that the Zhaozhou army is brave and good at fighting, but that the luck of the general is good, and the luck of the Tang Emperor is better. ”

"The Tang Emperor is the true son of heaven, blessed by the gods. General Cheng is the favorite general of the Son of Heaven, and he is naturally the head of good luck! Pulling up the twists and turns in the officialdom, Cui Shang immediately became like a fish in water. He didn't understand why Cheng Mingzhen didn't want to win a good victory, and had to put the credit on the enemy's civil strife and the luck of the Tang Emperor. But at this moment, the lives of him and his father-in-law are in the hands of others, so even if Cheng Mingzhen says that the moon is square, he will try his best to block the four sides!

"Yes, it was Ben who borrowed the luck of the Tang Emperor!" Cheng Mingzhen secretly screamed in his stomach and summed it up with a smile. "Rest assured, Lord Koji, according to Ben's investigation, since you became an official, you have not had any bad deeds of fish and flesh people. You and I are fighting today, each for his own master. Since Lord Cui is willing to offer Anyang City with both hands, the general will not be too difficult for you. In the future, Datang ** will be rewarded, and there will be no one for two people! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. We don't want to reward us. If you can save your life, you are already content! Koji wiped the blood from his head and said with a miserable laugh.

"Hi-" Cheng Mingzhen smiled and waved his hand, "One yard is one yard." I also have to bother the county keeper to write a few letters, so that the counties under his rule will also give up resistance! lest the people be unjustified with their hands! ”

"It should, it should!" Koji Ryu nodded repeatedly. "In fact, you don't need a little old man to come forward, the adults can send a few people to receive them from all over the world. The young men of the counties who can pull them to the battlefield have been defeated during the day. The Tang Heavenly Soldiers are unanimous, they definitely don't have the courage to use the mantis arm as a car again! ”

"The villain still has some property in the local area. If the general doesn't dislike it, the villain is willing to give up his family's capital and labor army! "Lest Cheng Mingzhen leave himself behind when he asks for credit, Cui Shang said loudly.

"Don't hide it from Master Cui. My brother in the camp was really hungry and thirsty. Hey, they're all countrymen, and they haven't seen much of the world. Master Lao Cui said hello to the fathers and elders in the city in advance, and said that Cheng Mingzhen was a rough man. With a group of rough billets. If there is a collision after entering the city, I hope you will forgive me! ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. Who doesn't know that the military discipline is strict under the rule of adults! Cui Shang trembled in his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly blocked the exit. The little one went back to the city, and discussed with the elders a list of labor and army supplies, and in any case, he was sure to satisfy the general! ”

"Then there's Lord Lautre! If there is a school field in Anyang City, it is best to clean it. In this way, the army will have a place to live, and it will not disturb the people! Cheng Mingzhen smiled and arched his hand. If Dou Jiande leads the army to fight back, it will be impossible to hold Wei County with the little soldiers and horses of the Zhaozhou battalion. And Datang is now fighting on all sides, and it is estimated that it will not be able to draw troops and horses to help defend Wei County for a while and a half. Therefore, instead of letting Dou Jiande easily take Wei County back, it is better to scrape the city to the bottom first. Anyway, the money of the big families in the city may not come from the good way, so they robbed it and took it to the other side of the mountain to settle down for the brothers.

can make Cheng Mingzhen relieved, Cui Shang is already overjoyed. I couldn't have imagined that Cheng Mingzhen would withdraw after getting a vote. With his eyes rolling, he had already figured out how to make a difference. How to make several other big families in the city pay more money and food as much as possible to protect the interests of the Cui family. As for Dou Jiande's kindness in the past, he had long been thrown away thousands of miles away. As long as you don't hear the familiar sound of the horn drum, you will never think about it again!

"Go ahead, go back and tell the people in the city that with the efforts of your husband and son-in-law, I will not hurt any innocent!" Cheng Mingzhen waved his hand and signaled that Cui Shang could retire first.

"Then, then I'll go ahead and clean the mansion for the general!" Cui Shang made a long gesture and asked tentatively.

"Go ahead!" Cheng Mingzhen waved his hand vigorously, "Come on, choose twenty guards to protect Lord Cui back to the county seat!" ”

said yes left and right, and immediately hugged Cui Shang and left. Taking everyone's backs away, Cheng Mingzhen withdrew his gaze from the door of the military tent and asked with a smile: "Wei County has returned to the territory of the Tang Dynasty." I wonder what the county keeper-sama plans for the future? ”

"I, I. When the little old man finishes the things assigned by the general, he is ready to pack his luggage and go back to his hometown! Koji Ryoshi sighed and replied very unwillingly. He had only wanted to save his life, but now that he was sure that his life was safe, he immediately had a few more desires in his heart.

"The Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty has always been benevolent. If the Koji County Shou can present the map and household registration of Wei County, maybe it will make His Majesty take a high look! Cheng Mingzhen smiled and pointed out a shortcut for Koji Liang.

"Thank you, General!" Koji's knees weakened, and he immediately knelt down again. "If you can be favored by Your Majesty, Koji will not dare to forget General Gaoyi in this life!"

"I'm just thinking that you have been a local councillor for many years, seeking talents for the country. You're welcome! Cheng Mingzhen took half a step sideways, refusing to accept Koji Liang's gratitude. Judging from the other party's performance today, this person is a waste snack. But the more this is the case, the more it seems that the victory of the Zhaozhou battalion in today's battle is easy. Since the opponent is so bad, then the victory of the Zhaozhou battalion depends on luck, and there is no need to be looked down upon for specific strength.
