Chapter 205: Take the army to receive the order
Liu Ji didn't care too much about the fact that the Great Jin Dynasty only rewarded him with one hundred taels of gold, and he now had hundreds of thousands of taels of gold in his hand, and there was no shortage of the little money rewarded by the Great Jin Dynasty, but the promotion of him by the Ministry of War to a guerrilla general made Liu Ji very happy.

According to the military system of the Great Jin Dynasty, in fact, a partial general can only command one battalion and three soldiers and horses, while Liu Ji currently has twenty-seven battalions, all of which are seriously overstaffed.
If Liu Ji is promoted to a guerrilla general, according to the Great Jin military system, he can command three battalions to five battalions of soldiers and horses, although according to the actual situation, the establishment is still much exceeded, but Liu Ji can command many battalions of soldiers and horses in the end, but there are only more battalions under his command.
After Liu Ji told Zhou Lanqi's five daughters about his plan to go to Shangyuan City, the county capital of Ju'an County, Zhou Lanqi frowned and said to Liu Ji: "Husband, the eyeliner we sent to Shangyuan City learned that the strongest person in Shangyuan City at this time is not the titular Taishou Zhang Chutao, but the guard of Shangyuan City, Shi Mao, and the information sent back by our eyeliner also said that Shi Mao is unscrupulous, in order to feed more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, many rich families in Shangyuan City have been blackmailed by Shi Mao, and some rich families have even been ruined by Shi Mao, If Fujun wants to go to Shangyuan City, he must be careful of Shi Mao, a guerrilla general. ”
The intelligence system under Liu Ji is still under the control of Zhou Lanqi, Zhou Lanxin, Lin Xiya and Lin Xiwen, and even Su Hena is also involved in some of the overall work of the intelligence system.
At this time, all the cities in the entire Ji'an County already had the eyeliner arranged by Zhou Lanqi and them, and even in most of the cities in Qianzhou, Zhou Lanqi and the others had built an intelligence system.
Zhou Lanxin then frowned at Liu Ji and said, "Husband, why didn't Zhang Chutao, the Taishou of Jue'an County, send someone to Chengyin City with the official document of the military department and the one hundred taels of gold rewarded by the imperial court?" If you have to go to Shangyuan City to receive the order, will there be any conspiracy? ”
Lin Xiya immediately said: "I think the husband should send a general to Shangyuan City to receive the order instead of the husband!" Now we have many enemies on the grassland, in case Hu Lu knows that Fujun has gone to Shangyuan City, and it will be bad to assassinate Fujun in Shangyuan City, Shangyuan City is not our territory after all. ”
Lin Xiwen followed and said: "Husband, I also think it's better not to go to Shangyuan City, the imperial court is too stingy, and one of the four major tribes of the Loufu clan was exterminated, so it was rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and a guerrilla general's position, it doesn't matter if you receive it or not." ”
Su Henan pursed her lips and said: "The Great Jin Dynasty is too picky, if the husband is on the grassland, he has the merit of destroying the bear tribe, no matter which clan he is in, he will have the qualifications to be the king!" ”
Su Hena now completely regarded herself as Liu Ji's woman, and when she talked about the destroyed Cangxiong tribe, she didn't care at all.
Liu Ji smiled at the five girls and said, "One hundred taels of gold is dispensable, but the name of the guerrilla general is still useful to me!" I, Liu Ji, am not afraid of the army of 520,000 grassland Hulu, and a small Shangyuan City is not a Longtan tiger's den, what am I Liu Ji afraid of, tomorrow I will take people to Shangyuan City, anyway, Shangyuan City is not far from Chengyin City. ”
Liu Ji said that he didn't care, but on the morning of the next day, that is, July 6, when Liu Ji rushed to Shangyuan City with his people and Zhang Qi, a staff member sent by Taishou Zhang Chutao, Liu Ji brought 5,000 cavalry with him.
These 5,000 cavalry belong to the soldiers of the Guards Battalion, and there are currently 10,000 soldiers in the Guards Battalion, including 5,000 cavalry and infantry.
In addition, Dian Wei, Chen Hao and Chen Zhong, the three top generals, Liu Ji all took them with him, and Li Wenzhong, He Ruobi, Li Xin and Mengwu, four first-class generals, led 5,000 cavalry and prepared to go to Shangyuan City together.
The nominal captain of the Guards Battalion is still Chen Hao, but the 10,000 soldiers of the Guards Battalion are led by first-class military generals such as Li Wenzhong, Chen Hao, Dian Wei and Chen Zhong, the three top generals, are already equivalent to Liu Ji's personal bodyguards.
Zhang Qi saw Liu Ji rushing to Shangyuan City with thousands of elite cavalry, and said to Liu Ji with a wry smile: "General Liu, don't lead so many elite cavalry to Shangyuan City!" ”
Liu Ji explained: "General Ben has offended too many Hulu now, maybe Hulu will find some way to deal with me, bring more soldiers by his side, and it will be safer!" Mr. Zhang, rest assured, I, Liu Ji, have no malice towards Lord Taishou and Shangyuan City! ”
Chengyin County is adjacent to the Shangyuan City area, and it is only less than 200 miles from Chengyin City to Shangyuan City.
However, the defenders of the west gate of Shangyuan City saw a cavalry coming towards Shangyuan City from a distance, and immediately closed the city gate in a hurry.
Shangyuan City, as the county capital of Ju'an County, also belongs to a border fortress, the area is larger than Chengyin City, each city wall is about six miles long, the area of the entire Shangyuan City is about 9 square kilometers, enough to catch up with the four Chengyin City.
The wall of Shangyuan City is about 10 meters high, which is about 2 meters higher than the wall of Chengyin City, which is more majestic.
Liu Ji looked at Zhang Qi who was riding on a horse and said, "Mr. Zhang, I have to trouble you to explain to the defenders of Shangyuan City, and let General Ben lead the troops into the city to receive the order." ”
Zhang Qi immediately said: "General Liu, there are too many cavalry you brought this time, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, can General Liu only lead a few people into the city?" ”
At this time, Li Wenzhong next to him said: "Mr. Zhang's words are wrong! Our army in Chengyin County and the army in Shangyuan City both belong to the border army of the Great Jin Dynasty, what misunderstanding can we cause when we enter the city of our own country? What's more, my lord was invited to Shangyuan City by Lord Taishou to receive the order! ”
Zhang Qi said with an embarrassed face: "This ...... This one...... The border has been in turmoil for many years, and the people of Shangyuan City are still very afraid of soldiers and horses in other places. ”
Liu Ji smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang, you should first talk to the soldiers defending the city about the situation of this general!" There are too many Hu Lu who want the head of this general, who knows if there are any Hu Lu spies in Shangyuan City, this general does not bring more troops, and he does not dare to enter Shangyuan City! ”
After listening to Liu Ji's words, Zhang Qiyi pondered, these things that make people scratch their heads, it is better to have a headache for Lord Taishou!
So Zhang Qi urged the horse to come to the west gate of Shangyuan City, and shouted to the guards on the city wall: "I am Zhang Qi, the staff of the Taishou Mansion, hurry up and send someone to report to Lord Taishou, General Liu of Chengyin County led 5,000 cavalry, rushed to Shangyuan City to receive the order, General Liu hopes to lead all the cavalry into the city together." ”
A military marquis on the city wall responded and shouted: "Please wait a moment for Staff Zhang and General Liu, and we will report to General Shi and Lord Taishou." ”
