Chapter 191: Don't Let People Die
More than 10,000 left troops fled to Fancheng, but when they ran to the city, they found that countless homeless people had gathered outside Fancheng, and the city had been captured by thieves.
In this way, Zhang Yingxiang ran to the Han River again, but there were no boats on the riverside, and the 10,000 left troops were driven to the shore, drowning thousands of people, and the rest of the men and horses saw that there was no way to run, so they all knelt down and surrendered.
But that Zhang Yingxiang was indeed a ruthless man, he ran to the river to see that there was not a single plank, so he hurriedly got off the horse, took off his armor, and jumped into the water naked. Everyone saw him for a while, and actually let him swim to the other side of the Han River.
Gao Yihuan rode a horse and stood on the shore, watching him swim across the Han River, and Zhao Zhuzi on the side was secretly surprised, "This turtle grandson is really good, he runs fast on horseback, and he looks like a fish in the water." ”
He had a little image of this Zhang Yingxiang, he let the guy rush out of the gap at the beginning, and now let him escape again, this brother's kung fu to escape on land and water is first-class.
Gao Yihuan looked at the bare white cheek on the opposite bank from a distance, and walked ashore from the river, and secretly praised, "Talent, the water is really good." ”
Everyone looked at the white cheek that was showing off his might, and Xu Heihu glared at him and said regretfully: "If you meet this guy next time, you will definitely have an axe and split his white cheek in half."
"It's okay to let him escape back, just so you can use him to scare Zuo Liangyu." Gao Yihuan smiled and said: "If Zuo Liangyu knows each other, it is time to honestly give up Xiangyang."
Everyone nodded their heads, they all felt that they had fought well, and they had solved the 20,000 left troops on the north bank of the Han River in one day.
Such a record, they themselves admire themselves.
At this time, after everyone saw the excitement, Gao Yihuan immediately ordered: "Shizhao, you have tied up the prisoner, and the others will enter the city with the general!"
"Enter Fancheng!" Zhao Zhuzi turned around and shouted, and all the soldiers cheered, hugging Gao Yihuan and heading towards Fancheng.
When Gao Jun left Henan, he won such a victory, and the momentum had already been fought, and everyone could feel that their gang might become bigger.
This is naturally a happy thing for the Gao military subordinates.
When the territory is bigger, their status and the benefits they can get will also rise.
All the soldiers were very excited, and the people who followed over also clapped their hands one by one when they saw the defeat of the left army.
Not long after, Gao Yihuan and his entourage entered Fancheng.
There are still some differences between Fancheng and Xiangyang, and his use is more military.
The entire city is mainly used for garrisons, and there are few inhabitants in the city, so it is considered a military city.
When Gao Yihuan entered the city, the corpses on the streets had not had time to be cleaned up, and the displaced people who participated in the siege were very resentful of the left army, and they were extremely ruthless, and the five thousand left troops in the city, including some residents, were almost killed.
At this time, Gao Yihuan came to the government office in the city, Dai Jinghong and Wang Guangtai led more than a dozen leaders of nearby villagers to greet Gao Yihuan and salute Gao Yihuan, "I've seen General Gao." ”
Gao Yihuan bowed slightly, he didn't expect to attract so many people this time, it turns out that the people's will is still a very important thing.
"Everybody's happy!" Gao Yihuan glanced at these people, they were all fresh faces, so he smiled and arched his hand: "You can come to help the war this time, I Gao Yihuan remembers."
Wang Guangtai introduced: "General, I got an order to contact the people, the heroes of the nearby prefectures and counties, I heard that the general was going to fight Zuo Liangyu, and without saying a word, they all came over with men and horses."
Several men nodded and bowed, "General Gao, a certain Song Chengjiang from Maqushan, I heard that the general was going to fight Xiangyang and led the brothers in the village, so I came to cheer for the general." ”
"General Gao, a certain Zhou Shiyang of Zaoyang, Zuo Liangyu scourges the township, everyone gets it and is punished, the general wants to beat Zuo Liangyu, the gentry of Zaoyang, and are willing to serve the work of dogs and horses." A thin gentleman wearing a scarf and a Taoist robe came out to salute.
Wang Tizhong and Wang Deren, who were standing in the corner, couldn't help but sigh secretly when they saw this posture, knowing that Gao Yihuan was going to soar into the sky this time, and they would not have a good time under Gao Yihuan's hands in the future, and an inexplicable sour smell permeated the hearts of the two.
At this time, Gao Yihuan smiled and gave up his hands with a few people, greeting and appeasing a few words, and a few cottage bandit leaders patted their chests and said, beating Zuo Liangyu, as long as General Gao said a word, they can bring ten thousand brothers over in minutes.
Gao Yihuan waved his hand to make everyone quiet, he couldn't help but express it, so he glanced at everyone and said arrogantly: "You guys are here to help in the war this time, Gao's words count." Among the heroes in the hall today, one is counted as one, and I have covered all the consumption of marching and fighting, and the food that the brothers eat. In addition, in addition to food, each leader will be given another five hundred taels of silver, which is a little bit of my heart. ”
After speaking, Gao Yihuan turned his head and said to Xinghao: "Xinghao, you go and prepare food and silver." ”
Hearing this, the gentry were fine, but the heroes of the green forest looked at each other, and their faces changed on the spot.
Song Chengjiang hurriedly excused himself: "How can we ask for the general's silver?" ”
"That's right, we all came to see the general's face, how can we still collect money!"
Gao Yihuan's words, since he was released, the money could not be given, and it was also a shameless thing.
Wang Guangtai, who was on the side, stood up with a very eye-catching look, "The general is anxious for justice and righteousness, and never treats his brother badly, if you give it to you, you will accept it, and in the future, the general will greet him and come to the general again, don't you do it!" ”
As soon as he said this, many heroes responded with a smile, but they were secretly refreshed in their hearts.
Eat and drink, and there are five hundred taels of silver to take, General Gao is really a kind person, absolutely heroic.
At that moment, Gao Yihuan sent these heroes away first, and as soon as they came out of the lobby, Xinghao said urgently: "Second brother, there are so many people, they eat and take, and the logistics can't afford it at all!" ”
With this greeting, fifty or sixty thousand people and bandits came, and Gao Yihuan really couldn't afford it.
"When Xiangyang is defeated, let them go back to farming, how can they keep raising it, I am not Zuo Liangyu's second!" Gao Yihuan comforted Gao Xinghao, then looked at Dai Jinghong, and said suspiciously: "Huh~ What about Bingzhong?" Why haven't you shown up yet? ”
Dai Jinghong hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Back to the general, San Lang is still guarding the pontoon bridge to resist Zuo Liangyu's counterattack." ”
Gao Yihuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help frowning: "Zuo Liangyu's guy saw that Ben would annihilate his 20,000 horses, he was not so frightened that he was scared, he quickly ran for his life, and he dared to fight back?" ”
This really surprised Gao Yihuan, this is not like Zuo Liangyu's style at all.
Wang Guangtai on the side said: "General, there is a special situation, Zuo Liangyu's son Zuo Mengeng seems to be among the five thousand left troops who are the first to go out of the city, and Zuo Liangyu most likely wants to save his son, so he is so desperate!" ”
Gao Yihuan heard this, half of the 5,000 people were killed by him, and the rest were handed over to the homeless people to guard, and he didn't know if he was killed.
Gao Yihuan didn't expect such a variable to emerge, he looked at Zuo Liangyu's posture, if Zuo Mengeng died in his hands, Zuo Liangyu was afraid that he would have to fight with him. Gao Yihuan is not afraid of Zuo Liangyu, but there is a Zhang Xianzhong to deal with in the back, and he can't fight with Zuo Liangyu.
"Quick! Fast! Gao Yihuan immediately said urgently: "Zhuzi, you call Jin Shenghuan, hurry up and find it, don't let Zuo Mengeng be beaten to death." ”
