Chapter 202: (Two-Front Battle)

Cheng Gongwu's Qi State continued some of the place names of Shangguan Yin Feng's New Deal period, and the place names of some county towns are still called according to the place names of the Western Han Dynasty and the early stage of the Chengjia Dynasty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Dezhou is the gateway of Shandong in the north, the strategic location is very important, its subordinate Jingxian and Nanpi are only 80 miles away, can be said to be fleeting.

Under the rule of Dezhou County, Jing County, Jing County General's Mansion

Liang Chao, the general of Jing County, the official worships the general Zhenwei of Qi State, commands 30,000 troops, guards Jing County, and his father is the right prime minister of Qi State, Liang Gong, said that the Liang family in Qi State follows Liang Gong's position as prime minister is rising, and he has become a big family of Qi State, Liang Gong has four sons, the eldest son Liang Huan, the official worship of Qi State Jianwei General and the northern defense envoy of the capital; The second son is Liang Chao; The third son, Liang Xi, is the general of Qi State; The fourth son, Liang Qiu, was the general of the Qi State; The two daughters are Liang Xin and Liang Yan.

In Liang Chao's general's mansion, at this time, many sergeants came to report the matter, and a sergeant clenched his fists and said: "General, the spies from the front have come to report that the Cheng Dynasty army is camped ten miles outside the city, and they keep digging horse pits and collecting grain and grass everywhere. ”

Liang Chao frowned and listened, just yesterday he received a herald from the capital, asking him to stick to Jingxian and not take the initiative to attack, but if the Cheng Dynasty army attacked the city, he could repel the order on his own: "The imperial court has unusual scruples about the Cheng Dynasty army, since the other party is short of food, then it is good to take the initiative to attack, and now let them go to the surrounding towns to collect grain, which has the meaning of raising tigers." ”

"Didn't the general want to go and harass him?" A staff officer arched his hand.

Liang Chao shook his head: "The imperial court is not worried about Shangguan Yin Feng's intentions, I can't indulge, as far as I know, it will be Ouyang Qing, this person is a famous general in the He Jing period, not to be underestimated, although that Li Chengdong is menacing, but after all, he is just a teenager, so there is nothing to worry about, and Ouyang Qing has to scruple about one or two." ”

"General, the last general is willing to take his troops and horses to the periphery of the Cheng Dynasty army tonight to harass them, and also see their true intentions." Liang Chao's lieutenant said with his fists clenched.

"It's okay, I've been thinking about what Shangguan Yin Feng's intentions are, the snow doesn't stop, but I have to send a large army to my Jing County, there must be a conspiracy, you take a few people to investigate, remember, if the enemy is pursuing, don't act recklessly, come back and talk about it." Liang Chao instructed, until now he is still worried about what Shangguan Yin Feng wants to do, although he wants to figure it out, but now the heavy snow has not only brought trouble to Ouyang Qing and them, but even they themselves can't be left alone.

Ten miles outside Jingxian County, Li Chengdong has a big tent

There are more than a dozen generals standing in the big tent, Li Chengdong is particularly prominent in the main position, after all, he is just a teenager, although he is only sixteen years old, but in this era, a sixteen-year-old boy can also be in charge of the army for a long time, not to mention Li Chengdong, who has followed Li Xiucheng in the army since he was a child, participated in the war several times, and has made slight achievements in civil and martial arts.

"General, the spies have come to report that there are 30,000 troops in Jingxian County, and Jingxian is still nearly 100 miles away from Dezhou City, if the timing is right, our army will try to cover up and kill, maybe we can take Jingxian before the enemy Texas reinforcements arrive." A general said.

After Li Xiucheng's death, they fled to Cangzhou and were accepted by Li Chengdong, naturally these people can also accept this young general, after all, he is Li Xiucheng's eldest son, and he has been following Li Xiucheng in the army for a long time, these people not only know Li Chengdong, but some have a very good relationship with Li Chengdong.

Li Chengdong turned around and looked at the map of the world's territory behind him, then nodded and said: "The general in Jingxian County is called Liang Chao, he is the son of Liang Gong, the prime minister of Qi State, and he has been in the border area for a long time, and his military command ability may be above me, but..."

The generals in the account don't dare to think so, although they know Li Chengdong's age, but after all, they are once Li Xiucheng's subordinates, and they also know Li Chengdong, among the Cheng Dynasty, he Li Chengdong is not the first person who fought in the army at the age of sixteen, Su Tong was only fifteen years old, and he fought with Su Long in Shaxian County with a spear, and his bravery was not comparable to his peers of ordinary age, and Li Chengdong lived up to the expectations of his father Li Xiucheng, and he also participated in the war very early, when he suppressed the barbarians in Sichuan, showed extraordinary talent and military ability, otherwise Li Xiucheng would not have taken his useless son out to fight.

"The general is heroic and abnormal, and in time, he will definitely be able to achieve some feats to comfort the king's soul in the sky." The adjutant general said with his fists clenched into the sky. Because Li Xiucheng was posthumously crowned King of Light, his previous subordinates all called Li Xiu the king.

Li Chengdong took a deep breath, and then said: "This time I came to Jingxian County, the Qi army will definitely come to my camp at night to sneak attack, tonight General Chen and General Zhao led the headquarters of the army and horses and the left and right sides of the camp to ambush, but seeing the shouting and killing, immediately kill, the general will take most of the men and horses to kill from the front, lucky, and maybe catch the Qi army camp general." ”

"No..."

That night, as Li Chengdong thought, Liang Chao sent a general under his command to lead nearly 3,000 people, late at night to Li Chengdong's camp to sneak attack, of course, according to Liang Chao's meaning, this move was mainly a temptation, but when the general led the army to pretend to shout killing, thousands of people were killed from its left and right sides, and Li Chengdong led a large group of men and horses to kill from the front of the camp, so that those Qi troops who came to sneak attack were frightened one by one, and fled before the battle, and then were beaten by the men and horses from both sides of the horse, and only less than 1,000 people returned from the 3,000 people. And the general was still captured alive by Li Chengdong during the battle, so Li Chengdong's army was greatly inspired, and even Ouyang Qing was surprised.

October 27 of the first year of Fengtian, in Wei County, Hebei

When Shangguan Yin Feng received the news delivered by Jinyiwei, it was already four days later, not only Shangguan Yin Feng, but even Huang Wei and others were surprised by the news that Li Chengdong killed and retreated the Qi army that night, in addition to his young age, more importantly, everyone was surprised that Li Chengdong could predict the sneak attack of the Qi army that night.

"Although he didn't kill many enemies, Li Chengdong did not bury his father's reputation, and issued an order to reward Li Chengdong with one hundred taels of gold and fifty jars of wine." Shangguan Yin Fengwu said to himself, he is also more relieved now, after all, Li Chengdong fought a relatively good victory in the first stop, the number of enemies killed does not need to be estimated, the most important thing is to win.

"Lord Wang, Jinyi Wei detective report, there are about 40,000 defenders in Liaocheng, and the military strength of the surrounding counties is estimated to be 100,000 people, the guard's name is Liang Xi, the third son of Liang Gong, the right prime minister of Qi State, I heard that the courage is abnormal, and the town has guarded Liaocheng for a long time, when Cheng Gongwu has not rebelled, then Liang Xi often goes in and out of Puyang, and General Zhang of the original Puyang is a friend, but it is a pity that General Zhang was killed, hey." Huang Wei said with some regret, the general Zhang in his mouth was the defender of Puyang before, after the Yancen army broke through Anyang, he did not surrender according to Puyang, and was killed outside the city after the army led by Sai Zun to break through Puyang.

"Oh..."Shangguan Yin Feng replied casually, in fact, in his eyes now, Liaocheng is just a city without city defense: "Any city wall is an ornament in front of the Shenwu cannon, this king still doesn't believe that his Liaocheng is as strong as Beiping City, can he stop my heavenly soldiers from coming?" "It's not Shangguan Yin Feng's nonsense, the Shenwu cannon has been improved several times, each time he personally participated, an instructor of the special forces, how to make gunpowder and shells is just commonplace, this era is the production process is poor, if it is placed in the Ming Dynasty artillery construction process, then the Shenwu cannon can be made more refined, at least a dozen shells are fired in a row without worrying about the barrel being too hot and exploding.

"Lord Wang, our army has been marching in the heavy snow for several days, and not far away is Linqing County under the rule of Liaocheng, where there are nearly 10,000 Qi garrisons, and the whereabouts of our army will soon be exposed, please show it to the prince." Li Yanqing arched his hand and said, although the enemy spies in Hebei were almost cleared by Jinyiwei, but now they are close to Shandong, and the spies of Qi are active frequently, even if the road is closed by heavy snow, the whereabouts of the army will be known by the spies of Qi in the near future.

"Pass the order, the army will rest on the spot, and tonight we will attack Linqing County at night, and give Cheng Gongwu a good news first." Shangguan Yin Feng looked into the distance and said to himself.
