Chapter 214: Hu Yanqing Returns to Shun
As soon as he heard this voice, Hu Yanqing was also suddenly startled, and then saw Lin Chong jump off the horse and walk towards him.
Lin ...... Brother Lin Chong? ”
It turned out that Hu Yanqing was stationed in Da Xie Shu all the year round to guard against Liao, and he knew less about the affairs of the Central Plains.
He also fought with the Liangshan Water Army not long ago, thinking that it was a battle to capture, but he was forced to retreat by the Liangshan Water Army, and only then did he know that a Liangshan Army suddenly appeared in the land of Jingdong.
And Liang Shanjun's "thief leader" is his sparring partner in Bianjing six or seven years ago, the taciturn, introverted, and depressed Lin Chong.
He couldn't believe it was true at the time, even though that "Lin Chong" had good martial arts, he really didn't look like a person who could pull the flag and rebel, and his personality was completely wrong!
At this time, when he saw that the other party was indeed the Lin Chong he knew at the beginning, Hu Yanqing felt a strong sense of unreality.
Lin Chong ignored Hu Yanqing's surprise and stunned, he walked over quickly, grabbed Hu Yanqing's two arms and said: "Brother Huyan, after a long time, I miss it very much, but I don't want to meet here again, my brother is really happy in his heart." It's just Brother Huyan, other people's officials are getting bigger and bigger, why is it that my brother is getting smaller and smaller? ”
Hu Yanqing was a little stunned again, and said in his heart, is this still the Lin Chong he knows who is depressed and unsmiling all day?
"Brother, is it really you? I heard someone say that the leader of the Liangshan Army was Lin Chong, the leader of the forbidden army who rebelled against Bianjing, and I couldn't believe it was you! Didn't expect ......"
"Huh! Of course it's me, do you think I'm a different person? Don't tell my brother that as early as a year ago, I didn't believe that I would be where I am today! ”
Lin Chong laughed, grabbed Hu Yanqing's hand and said, "Don't talk about this, today's matter, I don't know what Brother Hu Yanqing has planned?"
Brother may not know, that Wang Shizhong has been cut by me, but I am afraid that the court will not easily spare you, brother! It's better to go to Liangshan with me and gather righteousness together, wouldn't it be better than wasting the years here and being happy by the bird gas of the big turban! ”
Speaking of which, Lin Chong also knows something about Hu Yanqing, knowing that he is a fierce and unruly person, although Lin Chong has not specifically investigated, but he can guess that his character must be very excluded in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, and he is very indifferent.
Otherwise, he would not have been directly appointed as a regimental training envoy at the beginning, commanding at least two or three soldiers and horses commanded in a state, and after he was a famous general, he had a wide range of friends in the forbidden army, but in the end he was mixed like this.
And Hu Yanzhuo, who is also a descendant of Huyanzan, was under the command of Runing County all the way to Runing County, commanding the only 3,000-strong heavy cavalry unit in the region, and the rank of the two is simply the difference between the battalion commander of the major and the major general (or division commander) in later generations, you can imagine how depressed he is.
Sure enough, Hu Yanqing's heart suddenly darkened when he heard this, he was not satisfied in the officialdom of the Great Song Dynasty, at this time Dengzhou City was broken, and Wang Shizhong was killed, although he had no responsibility at all, but with the temperament of this court, it was not enough to kill generals every time the battle situation was unfavorable?
After being silent for a while, I heard him sigh and say: "Now that I have been defeated and captured, I am desperate, and I have asked my brother to take me in, but I have a cousin and nephew, and now he is being reused by the official family, but I can't be affected by me, and I ask my brother to take a look at one or two." ”
Lin Chong's heart moved, and he said, "Brother, what you said is not the double whip and the fire?" He's your cousin? And Hu Yantong, who is now serving in the Western Army, is also your son and nephew? ”
Hu Yanqing nodded and said: "Exactly, both of them are my cousins, and their fathers are both my cousins, but I was born late, and Hu Yanzhuo is much older than me (Note 1). ”
Lin Chong pulled him aside and whispered: "I really don't hide it, brother, now the imperial court's conquest army is estimated to be on the periphery of Liangshanbo, including Hu Yanzhuo and his three thousand elite heavy cavalry.
And I have already made up a plan to eat all the 40,000 imperial army and surrender it! If that's the case, it's not that it's not even involved, it's just that Huyantong is far away on the Kansai front, and Tong Guan is under his command, I don't know if he will be affected by the two of you? ”
At this time, Hu Yanqing didn't think about whether Hu Yantong would be affected, but focused all his attention on the words "eat all the 40,000 imperial army and surrender it".
He looked at Lin Chong with some surprise and disbelief: "Brother Lin, your Liangshan army is so strong, and the 40,000 imperial army is not in your eyes, just eat it?" ”
Lin Chong nodded, and said as a matter of course: "Brother, you will know after you go up the mountain, maybe when we go back, the battle will be over." ”
Looking at Lin Chong's high-spirited and sharp appearance, Hu Yanqing became more and more uncalm, and at the same time, the unreal feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"That's 40,000 imperial court troops, including 3,000 heavy cavalry commanded by my cousin, Liang Shanjun said he would eat it? And brother, you are far away from Liangshan at this time, and you don't even come to the front line to command? ”
He paused, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Aren't you worried about the unfavorable situation on the front line?" ”
Lin Chong smiled and said, "What are you worried about, unless the imperial court sends the western army, my Liangshan army will not look at him squarely." ”
Hu Yanqing still felt a little incredible, and said in his heart that it had only been half a year since the rise of the Liangshan Army, how did it become so powerful?
However, he immediately thought of the fact that the three battalions of the Chenghai Army and the Pinghai Army ambushed and attacked the Liangshan Water Army, but in the end they were beaten by the Liangshan Water Army and retreated, so he believed it a little.
Lin Chong saw that Hu Yanqing's expression slowly regained his composure, and he was about to say something more, when he heard Pang Wanchun come to report: "Brother, these more than 500 Dengzhou sailors have all been disarmed, and a total of more than 400 divine arm bows have been seized!" Is it time to send troops to support Brother Teng? ”
Lin Chong was also overjoyed when he heard this, as the largest and most elite water division in the Great Song Dynasty, the equipment of the Dengzhou Naval Division was the most advanced, and now it all belonged to the Liangshan Army.
"Good! Brother Pang, you and Brother Luan will bring people to guard the prisoners here and maintain law and order, and I will personally bring both of them to support. In addition, he sent someone to call Teng Ji back and garrison him outside the city. ”
After Lin Chong finished giving the order, his own guards went to pass the order, Lin Chong turned around again, pulled Hu Yanqing and said, "Brother Huyan, do you want to stay here or go to the Chenghai Navy Water Village with me!" ”
Hu Yanqing thought for a while and asked, "Brother Lin, what are you going to do with these soldiers of the Cheng Navy and my Ping Navy?" ”
Lin Chong had already learned that the Ping Navy had always been stationed in Da Xie Shu and was responsible for defending the Liao State, but he did not do such messy things with Wang Shizhong, and Lin Chong also believed that Hu Yanqing's troops would not be able to get out.
"The team under the command of the Ping Haijun brothers is naturally all incorporated, and this is still up to the brothers. As for the Cheng Navy's group of toll collectors, they were all sent to Liangshan to do hard labor. ”
Hu Yanqing was also overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately hugged his fist towards Lin Chong and said, "Brother Lin, then I'll go and say a few words to the brothers, and then go to the Chenghai Navy Water Village with Brother Lin." ”
Note 1: Huyanqing and Huyantong are all historical real people, after the genuine Huyanzan. Hu Yanzhuo is a character, the prototype is "Iron Whip Hu Yanzhuo", and the identity of Hu Yanzan's descendants is doubtful.
