Chapter 514: Throwing bricks and attracting jade

At the beginning of April, it was already hot. With the Liangshan army locking up the city in Zhuozhou, the situation in Khitan Nanjing Road took a sharp turn.

First of all, the Liangshan army, which was free, swept Liangxiang, Fangshan and other counties at a very fast speed, these places were empty, and it was easy to teach the Liangshan army to win. If so, the morale of the army is higher.

Secondly, Lu Qian personally led more than 30,000 people to ride directly to the city of Nanjing.

There were also 20,000 Liao troops in the city of Nanjing, but they only dared to watch Lu Qian show off his might outside, and his soldiers fought again and again, but they didn't dare to go out of the city.

Emperor Tianzuo felt that his face was being violently whipped by Lu Qian's big ear scraper, and he was about to swell. He didn't believe that Lu Qian would not hear the news that 'Wu Yanguang was defeated and reprimanded, demoted to prison, and died of illness in prison'. Although Wu Yanguang, the head of the eleven Yao Star Generals, died really quickly, people felt that there was a fake in it at a glance. But what this means is very clear!

Now Emperor Tianzuo has a kind of anger in his heart that Lu Qian does not follow the rules. And the Liao magnates in Nanjing were also angry. Although the Khitan is in decline, they are trampled on the head by a thief like Lu Qian to show off their might, and pee, and teach them to feel shameful.

Especially when the news of the Baozhou massacre came, the Khitan nobles would not explain the reasons for the period for the subordinates, let alone say that Lu Qian only killed the Liao army in the first battle of Baozhou that day, and the garrisons in Ansu and Guangxin would not be killed if they surrendered. only blindly preached that Lu Qian wanted to kill the Khitan, and the small 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city were so fierce that they were angry and excited, and they vowed to fight to the death with the Liangshan army!

Wu Yanguang, who had changed his name to Yelu Yanguang, advised: "Your Majesty is angry. Lu thief, this is just setting up a stage on the Nantian Gate and singing a high note. You can see that he only shouts under the city, but never sends troops to attack the city, you can see that he is very strong. And his clamor can only make the warriors of my city angry, and everyone is indignant. At this time, the more His Majesty could not bear it, the more agitated the spirit of the army became, like the flood that overflowed, the more it was blocked, and the more unstoppable it became when it burst the embankment. The same is true of the army in my city today. Why is Your Majesty worried? ”

Yelu Yanguang is worthy of being Emperor Tianzuo's confidant, of course, because of his good skills, but also because he is too familiar with Emperor Tianzuo. And according to the observation of the slave maid for many days, Lu Qian's thieves are now repeatedly dividing their troops to plunder the southeast. but for the sake of goods and money. Because our army is only bent on defending the city, it becomes more and more arrogant and negligent. The number of men and horses who went out has risen from one or two thousand to three or five thousand, and it is expected that in the future, its strength will only increase. Your Majesty can send thousands of elite horsemen to attack and kill them while they are unprepared. Rumors were released again that the border army had been ordered to return to King Qin, and reinforcements would arrive soon. That Lu Qian also knew that the troops in his hands could not break Nanjing, and once he was frustrated, he would definitely die. At that time......" Yelu Yanguang didn't finish his words, but Emperor Tianzuo couldn't hear the meaning of those two words no matter how stupid his brain was. At that time, it will depend on the work of the mouth.

And without mentioning the final result, as long as he can defeat Lu Qian for a while and suppress the arrogance of the thief army, he can make Emperor Tianzuo's dog days as refreshing as drinking ice water!

"Okay, that's a great plan!" In a perked up, he looked up at Yelu Yujian, who clenched his fists and bowed, Yelu Yanguang's plan was indeed good, and he couldn't say anything. "The minister is afraid of falling for the land thief's plan to lure the enemy."

Yelu Yanguang laughed when he heard this, "Our army is full of cavalry, and we are familiar with geography, so can't we go if we can't beat it?" Jerod was speechless.

Seeing that the two heavy generals who relied on the humerus saw the same thing, Emperor Tianzuo was even more happy.

At this time, in Lu Qian's army, a Liangshan army of 35,000 people was leading horses and carrying grain, and happily returned to the camp. This is exactly the team sent out by Lu Qian to go out to plunder.

But as the chief generals of this army, Liu Tang and Li Ying's faces were a little depressed.

The two returned to the camp and first went to the big tent to give orders to Lu Qian. Lu Qian heard that they had plundered more than 300 cattle and horses, 200 carts of grain, and more than 500 sheep today, and he was very emotional, this amount corresponds to the strength of the Liangshan Army dispatched, but it is too small. But he still smiled and said, "Come on, kill all the sheep you have found, and then choose twenty fat oxen, and reward the whole army." "He has no sparing in the fruits of plunder. Bian called Liu Tang and Li Yinger to take a seat.

The red-haired ghost was straightforward and fast, and he did not sit down, and immediately said when he stood under the tent: "My lord, I said bluntly, most of the people around this Nanjing city already know that our army is plundering livestock, grain and rice, and they have fled one after another, regardless of whether they are rich or poor. And most of the rich and powerful have fled into the city, or have fled north. If the army loots again, it will really have to ask for food in the hands of the common people. ”

In the past few days, the aim of the Liang Shanjun was the powerful estates, large and small pastures outside Nanjing, and the wealthy landlords of the two clans. It didn't go straight to the common people. But this wealth is limited, and it cannot be harvested today and grown again tomorrow. Today, although it has only been a few days, those Han and Khitan landlords have heard the news, and those who have fled into the city without prior time have abandoned their homes and fled. This will have to be done again, but it will have to be aimed at the common people.

Of course, the red-haired ghost will not treat the people here as the same as the people of the Han land in the Central Plains, but looking at those people outside the city who are wearing Hanfu and speaking Chinese, it is indeed difficult to start.

You must know that the Liangshan Army has always boasted that it is a righteous army and a good army to eliminate violence and peace, and now it wants to snatch up the common people, even if these ordinary people are 'foreigners', it also feels like a violation of peace. Not to mention that these 'common people' are still Han Chinese.

Lu Qian naturally heard the meaning of Liu Tang's words, and said with a smile: "The grain in the hands of the common people around Nanjing City has long been requisitioned by the Khitan magnates, and now you are grabbing all the food in the hands of the people, which is also a drop in the bucket for my army." ”

"Why don't you do this business in the future?" Liu Tang was overjoyed.

The smile on Lu Qian's lips was even more obvious. But he didn't answer, but turned his head and motioned for Xu Guanzhong to answer.

"Has General Liu ever fished?"

The red-haired ghost monk was confused, what does this have to do with whether he has caught a fish or not? "What do you mean by this?"

Xu Guanzhong only had a goose feather fan missing in his hand, "If you can't fish with bait, how can the fish eat the hook?" ”

"General Liu, General Li, the king sent two to plunder the money and grain of livestock, that is, to lay a bait."

Liu Tang and Li Ying glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of light, "The king wants to lure the Liao army in the city out of the city?" "In this way, their role is heavyweight.

"The defense of Nanjing City is strong, the people in the city are unified, and our army has limited strength, so it is difficult to overcome it in the short term. But in the scene, he is better than the Khitan and forces Emperor Tianzuo to bow his head, which can also make me raise my eyebrows and be angry. This is a brick throw. Lu Qian said, this is enough for him to win the hearts of the military and people of Hebei.

After all, I'm here to make comparisons. This is not afraid of not knowing the goods, but afraid of comparing goods. With the old Zhao family as a comparison, Lu Qian didn't seem too majestic.

And whose people don't want to hold up their heads and be humans? Raising the prestige outside the territory is also one of the ways for the outer king to be the inner saint.

These days, the Propaganda Department has entered Hebei in a big way. Standardize and rectify the vocal music of the tile city of the state capital, especially the storytellers. Zhao Da, who bullied orphans and widows, and Zhao Er, who was on the throne with the sound of candle shadow axes, became the protagonists of the Zhao Song royal family. But as far as the entire market is concerned, the Zhao brothers are still only a supporting role. The protagonist is the Han and Tang Dynasty heroes, Wei Qinghuo Quai, Li Jing, Li Ji, Xue Rengui, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Taizong of the Tang Dynasty. corresponds to Zhao Er's Northern Expedition, corresponds to Song Zhenzong's nest, and renders the majestic martial arts from entertainment.

Although it has no effect in the short term, this propaganda is better in the long run.

Of course, Lu Qian's 'great achievements' must also be indispensable. With the comparison of the Great Cowardly Dynasty, and the fact that Mo Yong kept saying that he was acting on orders, Lu Qian didn't know how long it took to gather the hearts of the people of Hebei.

It is difficult to distinguish the truth of things during this period, and who controls some things has the final say. After a period of gestation, it was harder to find.

For example, Mo Yong, such as Zhang Bangchang, and the so-called Liao-Song League. How do ordinary people know the truth or falsehood, and it's not that they are loud, who has the final say?

The Xuanzheng Division now has the Lu Qi regime to endorse them, and they hold the power of life and death in the market, who dares to disobey? Ask the Nava City Teahouse to set up a newspaper doctor, and read the government decree policy and news newspaper every day, so who dares not listen?

As for the so-called Shilin, Lu Qian has long discovered that the 'Shilin' in the peaceful times of the world is the Shilin in his memory. When the world is swinging and people's livelihood is withering, Shilin is a fart!

With these foundations, Lu Qian only needs to 'defeat' the Khitan army outside Nanjing, and then he can return south from Liaodi with a high spirit. Whether Emperor Tianzuo bowed his head or not was already secondary. After all, the 'culprit' Wu Yanguang is dead.

"If the Liao army wants to send troops, it can only be cavalry. Went out of the city with lightning speed, and dealt a severe blow to my outgoing sergeant. Xu Guanzhong opened a map, but it was half of the map of Nanjing Road centered on the city of Nanjing.

"If our army wants to defeat the Liao cavalry, no matter what else, the first thing must be able to support our army until reinforcements arrive." If the outgoing soldiers had been defeated by the cavalry of the Liao army before the reinforcements arrived, Lu Qian would not only have been empty of bamboo baskets, but also stole chickens and rice.

"The two generals have a heavy responsibility, and they must not slack off."

Xu Guanzhong had already drawn a lot of crosses on the map, and Liu Tang and Li Ying knew very well that those places were the places they had copied these days, mostly concentrated on the east and south sides of Nanjing City, that is, the closest to the Liangshan military camp.

Now there are still the west side and the north side, and the west side of the city of Nanjing is more hilly and mountainous, and it is obviously not as rich as the other three sides, so this north side has become a must-have place. And it is precisely here that it is the farthest away from the camp of the Liangshan Army. ()
