The time goes back to September 23.

Suiguo Ying Mountain, here is one of several important places in Suiguo, the reason is that this is close to the northern border of Suiguo, but all the grain in the north of Suiguo must be concentrated here, and then transported to Jingling.

Although the role is very important, the defense of the Northern King Army of Jing State here is still very small, and there are only more than 600 soldiers stationed in Yingshan, and not all of them are stubborn, and most of the weapons in their hands are limited to a wooden stick.

There is no doubt that Lin Yuyan felt that the Yulin Army could easily take Yingshan without even pretending to be the "Northern King Army" stationed.

"Then didn't An Luhou say that there are two thousand people in this Ying Mountain, why is it just like that?" Xiang Ying looked around and asked suspiciously.

"I'm afraid ......" Lin Yuyan swept around and said, "I'm afraid those who levy grain are already counted." ”

Xiang Ying nodded, but then said: "I heard that the Shouwang Army of Jing State has already captured Deng State, this [Northern King Army] seems to be the descendant army of Jing State, why does it look so ...... As weak as a kitten. ”

These captured soldiers were simply unarmed, uneven, and scattered, and could be broken with a single blow.

If the Northern Wang Army is really such a combat force, I am afraid that with the 3,000 men and horses under the command of Lin Yuyan, it may not be able to fight them to the death.

Lin Yuyan swept around, and under the protection of Jing Yi and other guards, he arrived at the side of Fang De and other generals.

Fang De said: "Your Highness, seeing that these captives are already thousands, if they are not properly settled, I am afraid of changes!" ”

Lin Yuyan nodded, but at the moment, the Ancient Tang Dao is a secret, and it must not be revealed to others, otherwise these people will bring back to the Great Qin Shanglin Yuan, and they will all be good strong laborers!

Fang De said: "Your Highness now has a banner and food, why don't you choose to be in this Suiguo...... Hiring?! ”

Xiang Ying also said: "Yes, Your Highness, I came all the way and found that the people have been suffering for a long time, because our army has scattered grain, and has bought a lot of people's hearts, and you can take these people for your own use...... Even if you can't go into battle to fight, you can also be placed as a tunnel camp! ”

"Good!" Lin Yuyan accepted these suggestions, and immediately said, "Just send someone to complete this matter!" ”

"What's next?" Fang De asked.

Lin Yuyan also asked: "Can you find out, how many troops are left in Suidu now?" ”

"About three thousand, the main force of the Northern Wang Army is preparing to march west to Nanjun to reach the Deng State, and the troops remaining in the Sui State are just to collect grain!"

"Then after taking Suicheng, we will carry out the next strategy!"

"Suicheng...... Here! ”

Suicheng, the capital of Suiguo in the old days, has been reduced to the granary of the Northern King Army.

On September 24, Luo Mao, the general of the Wang Army in the north of the city, suddenly heard a report: "Report, the Yingshan Grain Army does not know why, after entering the city, it has moved its troops to fight, and now it has taken the granary of Xicheng." ”

"Humph!" Luo Mao snorted coldly, and then slapped the case: "I just said, these people can't believe it!" ”

Deputy General Gai Tian asked, "Qu Shuai, how to deal with it?" ”

"Gather all the men and horses, and rush with me to kill!"

"Whoa!"

However, by the time Luo Mao arrived at the Xicheng granary, the rebellious followers were gone, but ...... Seeing that these people burned down the granary, they were immediately angry, once the grain collection could not be bid, I am afraid that they would be able to do it here!

I heard a report from someone again: "Report, Qu Shuai, many bandits have gathered in the east of the city!" ”

"Not good!"

Luo Mao looked nervous, because the granary in the east of the city is the largest granary in Suidu, and what is placed in it is sixty percent of the grain that is now levied by the state.

"Kill me!" Luo Mao's muscles burst out, and he shouted.

Immediately, the men and horses rushed to the east of the city, and in the distance, Luo Mao saw that there was a rebellion with the people, carrying hay and holding torches, which was clearly like a repeat of the old trick, and then burned the granary in the east of the city.

"Not good! The Red Turban Army is coming, run! ”

I don't know who shouted like this, and suddenly the riots in the east of the city dispersed with the people.

"I want to run!" Luo Mao snorted coldly, and then said loudly: "Kill all these rioting bandits for me!" ”

"Qu Shuai, do you want to send some people to stay in the granary?" Gaida asked.

Luo Mao replied: "No, kill these bandits, stick their corpses on the penny, deter the people, and see if these bandits dare to make trouble!" ”

"Whoa!" Gaida is also the answer.

There are few horses in Lingnan, especially in Jingguo, some people may not have seen a horse in their lives, although Luo Mao is Qu Shuai, but he also has no mount.

The mob runs on two legs, why don't they chase on two legs!

Especially in the territory of Suiguo, the northern end of Yunmengze is sparsely populated, and the suburbs of Suidu are barren grass that is taller than people, and as soon as these mobs flee into the barren grass, it is even more difficult to catch!

"Don't stop, these bandits can't run anymore, they catch them, their heads are exchanged for food, and the living are slaves!" Luo Mao said encouragingly.

Sure enough, hearing this, the soldiers who came out with Luo Mao were all excited.

But he didn't expect that there was a loud shout from the wild grass: "Suiguo Righteous Army, I have been waiting for the dog thief for a long time!" ”

Then a rain of arrows flew, and spears were erected in the barren grass and moved towards the side of the Northern King's army.

Luo Mao was surprised, how could this formation be a mob...... It's even sharper than the original army of the king!

"Qu Shuai!" Gaida reminded.

didn't hear Gai Tian's shouts clearly, but noticed that the soldiers around him kept falling, and Luo Mao also said loudly and urgently: "Withdraw!" Remove! Remove! ”

On the other side of this barren grass, Lin Yuyan looked at the retreating Beiwang Army, and also said, "Don't let them go to Suidu!" ”

After all, Suidu is a capital, and the city wall is not high, but if you want to attack it, I am afraid it will take a lot of manpower, and Lin Yuyan is worried that if this group of red turban troops retreats into a dead end, I am afraid that they will do something like jumping off the wall in a hurry, such as ...... Burn down the granary in the east of the city!

Fang Hui, the son of Fang De, said: "Your Highness, please rest assured, my father's [Yanling Array] will not be a problem to deal with these unsightly Jing Guo army." ”

Sure enough, as soon as Fang De, who was not far away, waved the military flag, the original scout battalions and other cavalry on both sides suddenly burst out, jumped over the barren grass with their heads high, and directly outflanked the Red Turban Army.

Perhaps because of their poor riding skills, these cavalry used arrows to shoot from a distance, which also caused great damage to the Red Turban Army.

Armed with a twelve-forged broadsword, Baifu Yangxiong led the vanguard of the Yulin Army to start a counterattack and pursuit of the Red Turban Army, while on the other side, Chu Luan, who had occupied the commanding heights, led the scout battalion to use the advantage of the divine arm crossbow to start sniping those Red Turban Army masters.

Such as Luo Mao, Gaitian and the like, these people have more complete armor than others, and they look like big fish at a glance.

At that moment, Chu Luan's scout battalion began to shoot crossbow arrows like rain among the Red Turban Army generals.

Gai Tian died under the random arrows, Luo Mao was directly hit by Yang Xiong's spear and fell to the ground, seeing that Qu Shuai and the main generals were either killed or wounded, these red turban troops suddenly lost their sharpness, and trampled on each other in order to escape and suffered countless casualties.

Fight with you and win!

However, it is obvious that Lin Yuyan does not have too many feelings about this great victory, these Red Turban Army who stayed in the territory of Suiguo only to collect grain, although they belong to the Northern King Army, but to be able to defeat the Red Turban Army of the 300,000 main army of the old Chu State, and the Shouwang Army that captured the Deng State, I am afraid it is nothing, at most it is a peasant with a wooden stick and some swords and armor.

These people, even in the Northern King Army, are nothing, they must be cannon fodder in wartime, not slaves in wartime.

Although these are nothing to Lin Yuyan, but for the Yulin sergeants who don't know the truth, they are very exciting, these are all real military merits, and they are linked to the Jiupin military merit knighthood system, that is to say, these people are simply mobile fields!

With the defeat of the Red Turban Army, Yulin has already settled in Suidu.

The Sui Palace, which had been turned into a warehouse by the Red Turban Army, was because as far as the entire Sui Kingdom was concerned, only the palace building was the most solid, suitable for hoarding grain and grass.

The place where Lin Yuyan's army was stationed was the southwest of Suidu, and the water that slipped into Yunmengze and flowed into the Yangtze River was the water source of the Suidu moat.

The first thing the Yulin army did when they entered Suidu was to release the slaves and open a warehouse to release grain.

There are only more than 3,000 people in the Yulin army, and this strategy is to feed the war with war, and it is bound to be impossible to carry too much food with them, and most of the slaves gathered in the capital are followers, driven by the Red Turban Army day and night, and also suffered whipping, and have long been dissatisfied with the Red Turban Army.

I heard that the banner army of the righteous army entered Suidu, at first I was still skeptical, and I still had a conservative attitude towards the righteous army, but with a series of actions of the righteous army entering the city, I quickly bought the hearts of the people.

There is no need to garrison the barracks, and everything is available, after all, it is lying on a grain mountain.

Suddenly, I heard Xiang Ying report: "Your Highness, General Fang, less than four miles from east to west of Suicheng, I found the prisoner camp of the Red Turban Army, which is mining copper ore for Jing Kingdom!" ”

"Prisoner camp? Who's it?! Lin Yuyan asked.

Xiang Ying replied: "It is the royal army of Suiguo in the old days, but after being defeated by the northern royal army of Jing State, it was collected in a copper mine in the northeast of Suidu, with about 2,000 people. ”

Hearing this, Fang De said: "Your Highness, the captives of the Red Turban Army may not be of our use!" ”

"Hmm...... I understand. Lin Yuyan nodded, and then said: "Let's see this Suiguo doctor first, and then talk about the rest, Xiang Ying, the grain in Suidu, in addition to meeting the needs of the Yulin Army, must be distributed in full, and must not leave a grain of grain for the Jingguo Red Turban Army!" ”

"Whoa!" Xiang Ying clenched his fists in response.

After a while, I saw Yang Xiong of the Yulin Army leading people to escort a few figures in.

Yang Xiong said: "Your Highness, this person is from the Suidu Prisoner Camp, and he claims to be the doctor of the old Suiguo, and his name is Suihui!" ”

"Follow?!" Lin Yuyan looked at the figure, although this person was down, but the demeanor between his eyebrows was still there.

Seeing Lin Yuyan's gaze, he found that this person's face was very immature, and he looked like he was less than twenty years old, especially when he was born with white face and red lips, where he looked like a leader, but he was under the eaves, so he had to bow his head, and then he hugged his fists and asked, "I don't know where the leader of the righteous army comes from?" ”

Lin Yuyan thought for a while, and said with an unchanged expression: "Tongbai Mountain!" ”

Sui Hui nodded, after all, Sui Guo is a vassal state in the north of Yunmengze, with a population of tens of thousands, but now a rebel army is emerging but does not know the details, now it is said that Tongbai Mountain, Sui Hui also knows that in the old Tang State was destroyed by Chu, and some people escaped into Tongbai Mountain.

Speaking of which, the sense of identity with the rebels was strengthened, whether it was Suiguo, Tang and the surrounding vassal states, they were all the "Hanshui Zhuji" sealed by the Emperor of Ji Zhou, and the task of generations was to supervise the land of Jingchu and Wuyue for the Ji Zhou royal family.

At present, since this army has raised the banner of "righteous army", its actions can indeed be recognized by the meeting.

"Suihui" bowed like this: "A certain is the general of the country, Du Hui, and I have seen the leader of the righteous army!" ”

"General Suiguo...... Du Hui?! Lin Yuyan was a little surprised, she really didn't expect the Red Turban Army of Jing Kingdom to expose such a big fish.

"General, please get up!" Lin Yuyan stepped forward to support Du Hui and said.

"The general of the defeated army, how can you be treated so politely by Your Excellency!" Du Hui showed a look of shame.

"What did the general say," Lin Yuyan helped Du Hui up, and then asked again: "What is the general going to do next?" ”

Du Hui sighed and said slowly: "Now the royal family has been slaughtered by the Red Turban Army, but if you want to recruit the rest of the people, fight to the death, and at the worst, you will be slaughtered by the corresponding nephews!" ”

"Ying Steroid?" Lin Yuyan was puzzled.

Du Hui gritted his teeth and explained: "Ying Ning, is now the king of Jing Guo, it turned out to be the minister of Suiguo, but the Red Turban Army of Jing State came over, this person is in collusion with the commander of the Red Turban Army, King Miquan of Jing Guobei, first cut off the grain and grass of the Suiguo army, and then led the Red Turban Army into Suidu, and was slaughtered with the royal family, but Ying Ning got the benefit, and now he was named the king of Jingguo, and the capital was also moved back to the old nest Yingcheng, and now everyone wants to eat his flesh and bones, drink his muscles and blood!" ”

It is really a person who has brought disaster to the country and the people...... 〗

Lin Yuyan also said this in his heart, this should be really hateful, but Lin Yuyan had to remind Du Hui: "I'm afraid that with the remnants of the people now, it will not be enough to fight against the Northern King Army of Jing State......"

Hearing this, Du Hui sighed heavily, and then looked back at Lin Yuyan and said: "Since the leader has played the banner of the righteous army, Du Hui will ask the leader to help someone else!" ”

"It's not that I'm unwilling to help you wait, it's really powerless, and now it's the main force of the Northern King Army that is not there, so they will recover Suidu, I'm afraid that it will be these two days, and the Northern King Army of Jing State will return to Suiguo ...... after receiving the news."

Hearing this, this Du Hui really had a trace of fear, although it was hidden in the bottom of his eyes, but he was still captured by Lin Yuyan.

Immediately, Du Hui thought for a long time before he looked at Lin Yuyan, and said in a serious tone: "The leader led the righteous army to recover Suidu and rescued us and other old followers, and now the royal family has been slaughtered by the Jingguo Red Turban Army, Du Hui is willing to lead the followers to follow the leader, if the leader intends to follow the throne, a certain wish will be sent to the leader's account!" ”

Along the way, Du Hui also saw the soldiers of the righteous army in front of him, all of whom were stubborn and powerful, not at all like a righteous army, much more regular than the original Sui Wang army and those red turban troops.

The royal family is gone, but the monarch of the country, Du Hui thinks that no matter what, he can't be taken away by Ying Yong, I'm afraid that the first king knows about it and will die blindly!

Fang De was also moved, watching Lin Yuyan hesitate, he also reminded from the side: "Childe, with Du Hui's investment, we are more sure of dragging the Northern King Army on the battlefield of Yunmengze!" ”

Childe? 〗

Du Hui looked at Lin Yuyan in the past, he would actually be the son, so he would not be considered a violation of his loyalty to the king of Xiansui, you must know that the "Hanshui Zhuji" is the bloodline of the Ji Zhou royal family, tracing back to the roots, this "Gongzi of Tongbai Mountain" may also be the bloodline of the Hanshui Zhuji princely states such as the old Tang Kingdom or the Old Xi Kingdom!

In this way, the proximity of blood makes Du Hui think that it is more suitable for Lin Yuyan to inherit the throne!

"Good! I accept General Du's surrender! Lin Yuyan nodded, then looked at Du Hui and said, "As for the throne, wait until I kill Na Ying Yong and defeat the Northern Wang Army!" ”

Hearing this prince say this, Du Hui was even more touched, and he was more sure in his heart that the son who was so uneager for quick success was indeed the best candidate for the king, and said: "Obey the son's orders!" ”

Lin Yuyan said to Du Hui: "Next, the enemy army will make a comeback, General Du, I want you to gather the old followers and establish the [Yunmeng Army], it may be done?!" ”

"Yes...... The last will do his best! Du Hui's eyes were firm, compared to the confusion when he first entered the account, Du Hui was more energetic at this time.

Lin Yuyan commanded: "Okay! General Du, the enemy army is large, our army can not fight hard, but the people of Suiren are innocent, I limit you to two days, distribute the grain of Suidu to the people of the old Suidu, and tell them that the war is about to start, and they must hide in the deep mountains and clear the wilderness! ”

"Whoa!" Du Hui received the order, and then said: "With the country having big mountains, there are also Daze, and with people who have the heart to strengthen the walls and clear the wilderness, they will definitely not be able to find those red turban thieves!" ”

"It's great to be so natural!"

Lin Yuyan nodded.
