Chapter 252: Peace

Almost at the same time as Boyan issued the military order, the situation in Zhangzhou was very good, since Wen Tianxiang entered Zhangzhou, the Quartet heroes have been visiting in an endless stream, and the Han She army, which had reached more than 100,000, rose to a terrifying more than 200,000. Of course, these more than 200,000 are basically counted according to the capita, regardless of men, women, old and young, and they are counted as individuals, and the actual combat strength is only 12/12. Even so, with a large base, even if you smash out of the eleventh, it's amazing enough.

The Yuan army of Zhangzhou had already abandoned all the surrounding cities, and all of them cowered in the city, praying day and night that the prime minister's army would come to save their lives. The Han She army, such as Mrs. Xu, Chen Hangyan, Huang Hua, and Chen Guilong, who had been suppressed by Meng Yuan to Gao'an Village, was full of momentum, and marched all the way, connecting the cities of Zhangpu, Changtai, and Longyan, cutting off the connection between Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, and at the same time choking Tonggu Mountain, the road that the enemy from the west must pass, and completing the encirclement of the enemy in Zhangzhou.

With the strong strength of the righteous army at this time, the capture of Zhangzhou is like probing for things. Chen Hangyan has also asked for help several times, saying that he will go to Zhangzhou in three days. This is not Chen Hangyan's wild words, he and Mrs. Xu had captured Zhangzhou twice before, and the strength of that meeting was less than half of what it was now, but now the soldiers are strong and strong, the enemy's courage has been broken, and it is easy to break the city.

However, after military discussions, Chen Zhi, counselor of the Righteous Army, proposed not to attack the city for the time being, and used Zhangzhou as a bait to force the enemy to rescue, killing and wounding a large number of reinforcements, which is far better than capturing a city.

In the end, Wen Tianxiang adopted this suggestion, and the Yuan army in Zhangzhou City was able to survive day and night.

At the same time, the left route of the Yuan army was happy to conquer the barbarian vanguard, and Wang Weiyi led more than 12,000 cavalry troops to kill from Ganzhou in the west. On 17 May, the soldiers reached Tonggu Mountain.

Tonggu Mountain is more than 20 miles southeast of Longyan, the mountain is dangerous, stretches for hundreds of miles, the mountain people are mostly She people, and the folk customs are fierce. At this time, Tonggu Mountain has built a fortress, garrisoned by a She army, about more than 10,000 people, guarded by Chen Guilong, Chen Guiyan's uncle.

The smoke and dust raised far away by the Mengyuan army had already been seen by the sentinels, and the news reached the village, and the village was suddenly boiling. The horns of the ox whined, and countless soldiers flocked to the walled field, where there were mountains of machetes, pikes, rattan cards, and bows and crossbows. The shes swarmed up, and when they dispersed, the mountain of weapons was left with only a bottom.

"All the crossbowmen, come with me to the shelves on the wall."

"Shuttle standard, all go to the lower layer of the wall, poke the hole in the wooden fence, and the Tartar soldiers dare to climb the wall, so they will stab Lao Tzu!"

"Knife players and crossbowmen, one archer with one knife player, but those who climb the wall, they will be cut down by me!"

This middle-aged burly man with a red scarf on his head who keeps calling the command is Chen Guilong, although he is not as famous as his nephew and niece, but he is also a good man who dares to fight and kill.

Soon, the wall was full of dense soldiers. Looking up from the only stone path outside the stockade, under the reflection of the sunlight, the layers of glare on the blade of the knife and the little cold light reflected by the arrow arrowhead make people difficult to open their eyes and feel cold.

At this moment, on the stone path outside the village, there is a Yuan soldier with a bow and arrow standing on the big stone, holding a pergola and squinting at the village. Less leaning, the Yuan soldiers jumped off the boulder, as swift as a leopard to the village. When he approached Baizhang, he suddenly stopped, took off his large bow and quiver and threw it on the stone steps, and raised his hands high to show no hostility.

Yuan Bing raised his hands like this, and climbed the stairs step by step, gradually approaching fifty zhang, and he could basically hear clearly at this distance. Perhaps seeing the strange behavior of the Yuan soldiers, although the soldiers opened their bows and raised their crossbows, the bowstrings squeaked, but they never shot at the other side.

Yuan Bing took out a letter from his bosom and said in a loud voice: "Listen to the leader of the She people on the other side, I am ordered by the barbarian vanguard officer Gao General to submit this letter to Prime Minister Song Guowen. ”

After a while, a shout came from the village: "Stay the letter, get out!" ”

Yuan Bing slowly placed the letter on the stone steps and turned away very simply.

A crack opened in the gate of the wall, and a group of soldiers flashed out, rushed down, picked up the letter and turned back.

The letter was sent to Chen Guilong, although the envelope was written "Wen Cheng Xiang Qi", but Chen Guilong didn't care about this, and it was not wrong - there were already regulations in the army, but all the handwritten letters sent by the enemy country, no matter who they were sent to, all the generals could open them to show their innocence.

Looking at the ten lines at a glance, Chen Guilong was stunned: "Peace? Glad to make peace? ”

……

"Glad you want to make peace? Is this king's eight lambs pumping their brains? The person who spoke was not Chen Guilong, but a sturdy man about thirty years old, with two eyes hanging high at the corners of his eyes, looking like vertical eyes.

At this time, this letter was not in Tonggu Mountain, but in Gao'an Village.

"In a big move, in front of the prime minister, you must not be presumptuous." The person who reprimanded her was a beautiful woman in her early thirties, with a red scarf on her head, a red scarf, soft armor, and two swords hanging from her waist, and she was full of heroism. It is Mrs. Xu, the leader of the She Army, who is famous in Fujian and Guangzhou.

The person she reprimanded was her cousin, Chen Daju, the second person in the She Army, who was also known as "Chen Hangyan" because of his strange appearance.

Wen Tianxiang stood in the middle of the village hall, waved his hand with a smile to indicate that there was nothing to do, shook the letter in his hand, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

"Let's talk about it...... Don't even think about it! Luo, the leader of the rebel army stationed in Changjiao, opened his mouth for a long time and sprayed, but fortunately, he closed his mouth in time and held back the word "fart".

Chen Sanguan, the leader of the rebel army stationed in Shuizhushe, also said: "Last year, my Hanshe coalition army conquered Zhangzhou, and it was this happy and complete person who suddenly led a large army to kill and destroy the good situation. At present, our righteous army is strong, and when I see that I can't defeat it, I want to negotiate peace. Hehe! ”

"That's right! Never make peace, see the real chapter on the sword and arrow! ”

The leaders of the rebel army below have expressed their attitudes, the current situation of the rebel army is unprecedentedly good, it is in full swing, who will make peace with you, it is almost the same to talk about surrender.

Wen Tianxiang looked at Chen Zhi: "What does Jiankun mean?" ”

Chen Zhi stood up, and Tuan Tuan arched his hand and said: "So that you know that the official family has already explained before leaving, this Northern Expedition, only with swords and guns, no negotiation, only surrender!" ”

There was a burst of cheers below, and the sound shook the village.

Chen Zhi continued: "According to Chen, Na Xing never wants to make peace, he just wants to play tricks under the guise of peace talks. In that case, why don't we just do it? ”

The leaders looked at each other, playing tricks, how to play?

Wen Tianxiang was immediately interested: "Will the plan be released?" ”

Chen Zhi twisted his beard and smiled: "According to what the letter says, I am glad that I will personally lead twenty guards to climb Tonggu Mountain, enter Tonggu Village, and negotiate peace with the prime minister - the enemy commander is willing to throw himself into the net, so why should we refuse it?" ”

Mrs. Xu's eyes lit up: "Yes, when it comes to our territory, we have the final say." Not to mention that there are twenty of them, even if they are two hundred, they can't turn them over. ”

Chen Hangyan, Chen Sanguan, Luo Bantian and other leaders of the rebel army all nodded their heads again and again and loudly agreed.

"It's just ......" Chen Zhi bowed his hand to Wen Tianxiang and said apologetically, "I'm afraid that this move will affect the reputation of the prime minister, and I ask the prime minister to decide." ”

Wen Tianxiang smiled: "Jian Kunke still remembers the incident of a certain envoy to Yuanying in the second year of Deyou?" ”

Chen Zhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that in the second year of Deyou, Wen Tianxiang had served as an envoy of the Song Dynasty to the Yuan army to negotiate peace, and argued with the Yuan Dynasty's prime minister Boyan in Gaoting Mountain, and was subsequently detained by Boyan. This was the first time Wen Tianxiang had been captured.

Wen Tianxiang's smile remained unchanged: "Boyan is the prime minister, and a certain is also the prime minister; Boyan can do the first year of junior high school, how can he not do fifteen? The eyes of the world are like torches, how can they slander my reputation? This time, I'm going to make him happy and unhappy! ”
