Chapter 411: Into the Bian
Then I summoned the leader of the enemy army who took the initiative to surrender to the city, only to find out that Lin Chong, the leopard head who inexplicably became the loyal general of the Northern Dynasty, was actually a coincidence, because these three are also familiar acquaintances of me in a sense!
One of them is called Chaogai, although there is no deeds of Tota, but he is a former waterway thief who crisscrosses the river; the other is called Lu Junyi, who is said to have never forgotten the background of a small and powerful person who came from a famous family, but his family background is broken; There is also a man named Chai Jin, who is a former wealthy local merchant and a smuggler.
If, there is another timely rain from a public family-Song Jiang, it is estimated that the four heavenly kings of Liangshan have all gathered a table of mahjong. Is this a large wholesale of Water Margin characters, four or five popped up for me at once. Lao Tzu just went to Liangshan once.
However, this result is not only surprising, but also somewhat expected.
After all, in the general trend of the Northern Expedition, which is disturbing today, it can be said that the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods have been stirred out by the sediment.
Since Fang La and everything continue to emerge in the background of the tea lord, it is not so unacceptable to have a few more characters who were originally in history who were not satisfied with the ordinary and lonely, and changed to another time and space trajectory, with different identities and positions, to make a difference and show Xiàn.
Of course, the reason why they jumped back to the door is also very helpless and sad, it is nothing more than that in the Northern Korean army, they don't regard them as people who are not on the right path, and they are driven by all kinds of desperate urging, and no matter how hard they work, they are still like slavery, so they resolutely changed their court.
I only hope that the "Wang Shi" will give a little mercy for the sake of dedication, and in this panicked world, it will be satisfying to give such a place to saturate and live.
The key is to see how I deal with these people, and I even had the idea of simply letting them have an accident to prevent future troubles and variables.
However, after thinking about it, with my current strength and confidence, whether I can kill these guys is actually as insignificant as whether normal people step on ants or not, but it will ruin my reputation and reputation.
In the end, it was decided to give these guys an inconsequential title and detain them in the army in disguise, while most of the remaining 1,000 people were given some rations and dismissed, and only a few volunteered to contribute, and they were scattered and managed in several stragglers to continue to observe the school.
Then, on the contrary, I have some expectations for what kind of expressions and tricks these historical figures with the same name can be made under the supervision and correction of our army. Is it capriciousness or apostate? Or has it been transformed into another pattern and appearance by subtle influences?
Not to mention the others, as the collection and transformation of the Water Margin character card that I have been familiar with since childhood, it is also a constant potential fun.
In the end, this is just an episode in my journey, which is too small to be smaller. My army soon marched forward, recovering and clearing most of the territory of Bianzhou in separate groups, and then followed the Guangji River to the city of Bianzhou, where several large rivers flowed.
What is a little gratifying is that although there is still a mess on this front, at least Bianzhou City is still in the hands of friendly forces.
Although the head of the city is a little deserted except for the banner of the Southern Army, even if it is alarmed by our brigade, it is just a few sparse figures, probing their brains.
Therefore, under the Guangyi Gate in the south of the city, after a little negotiation and the presentation of the letter, the door was opened and introduced into this Bianzhou city.
It was only when we walked in that we realized that the previous feeling was not an illusion.
This huge city is as cold and lonely as a ghost, and even if you bump into a few sergeants patrolling the streets, they still walk empty, and they have completely lost their vitality and died in the ruins.
Our brigade walked through the gates and on the streets and bridges, not even the noisy voices and animity of the city that is basically a city, only the monotonous rustle of footsteps.
God knows how many people the Henan crusade army, led by the center of the new army, slaughtered and slaughtered here, so as to turn such a hub of land and water into an extinct ghost town.
You know,
Although this is no longer another time and space, the pattern and atmosphere of the thousand-year-old "Tokyo Menghualu" are amazing, but in the impression I passed by a few years ago, it was also a prosperous town where household registration was gathered, business travel was like clouds, and elite soldiers and horses were supported in several towns.
This is also the city where I have many memories of the place where I parted ways again with those grief-stricken companions and dissident friends after escaping from the Lodo Revolution.
Not to mention how I rode on a horse and marched with the army, how I had mixed feelings. Even if they were deliberately called by my side and entered the city together, Wuping and Su Changsheng and others couldn't help but show some kind of nostalgia and nostalgia, just like the disagreements and rupture under the water gate of the state city were still yesterday.
Well, I think of the women who were hidden in the cellar by my bad bad people and brought out by the explosion of their character, but there is a faint sadness and loss that is not as good as the first time, and the gloom wells up in my heart.
I have returned, and I have returned with a new army with strong soldiers, but the people and things that were familiar at the beginning do not know where they are now, and whether they will be able to survive the continuous war from Togi Province to the Central Plains.
The only thing I regret and worry about is that the woman who suddenly broke her promise and pushed my predecessor into the water, it seems that because of some kind of protective trauma, I still can't remember her name. Maybe you will only remember it when you see it in person.
Another concern is Dugu Jiajia,
I still remember that it was my hands tightly clutched, and I was able to escape through the foul-smelling ditch all the way, and the one who was very well-behaved and did not cry, and finally fell asleep in my arms, soft as the name of the little girl.
According to Senior Sister Dugu's final explanation, many years ago, she and Ma Xianggong, the former pawn of the horse, were clearly distinguished in the house, and they went their own way. Therefore, she has had a lot of guests in the past, but this child can only be regarded as a child of a lonely family, following his mother's surname.
After I fell into the water and was separated, where was she taken, it was a big regret and knot in my heart. With this mixed feeling and remembrance, we passed through the equally empty inner city and arrived at the somewhat popular Tooth City.
began to take over the affairs of the city,
It was only when the city defense and important tasks were handed over that I learned that there were only three or four thousand men and horses stationed in this huge area, most of whom were defeated and scattered and gathered here, and the number was not even as large as the northern army gathered in Chenqiao Town.
Among them, the highest rank is only a loose general, and the only one who can restrain is a part of the garrison, and the others are scattered in small groups in this city, each according to a neighborhood on its own.
Therefore, it is really impossible to do more for the areas outside the city.
It's just that what greeted our reinforcements was not limited enthusiasm and excitement, but all kinds of relief and relief.
They don't even have a superficial attitude, as if they can't escape, or that something terrible is chasing them.
Tiredness, confusion, burnout, and many other things that are difficult to describe in words ripple through their expressions and eyes, reminiscent of a certain war syndrome described in the famous book "All Quiet on the Western Front".
If they don't have a good training and rest, for a long time, they will just be a sense of existence on the surface, and they can't expect too much.
But in any case, as one of the few key points and pivotal points between the front line and the rear, we still get a lot of more accurate information about the front.
Mostly good news, one bad news, and one good news that is not bad.
The good news is that the vanguard of the Central Route Army has successfully approached the southern wall of Luodu, so the main force of the Northern Army has contracted to defend the south with all its might, and has no intention of continuing to expand the results and control the zhì area in the short gap in the battlefield on the Eastern Front.
This also means that there is not much positive pressure on us to defend and deal with.
The bad news is that because of the successive battles and defeats, the remaining armies on the Eastern Front are actually no longer able to fight, and in the various tables handed to the rear, there is a shortage of food, grass, charcoal and fuel, equipment and tools, soldiers and husbands, almost everything.
Although there is no lack of exaggerated difficulties and water, at least in the short term when it is not replenished by heavy storming equipment, it can only be used to flood the local defense line with men.
And the good news is not bad, it is from the Western Front, a two-way commander of the Western Front who maintains a containment and follow-up posture, and suddenly played a division of troops to sneak through Chen Cang on the plank road.
Among them, the soldiers and horses of Xishu recruited the division, suddenly went out of Wuguan and detoured to the south of Taibai Mountain to Dasanguan, and raided the Tianning army in Hanzhong from Chencang Road, completely closed the passage for the Western army to enter Shu, and cut off the military horses of the towns in eastern Sichuan from the north.
Jinghu recruited the men and horses of the Xingsi, and sent troops to attack Shaanxi County in Hedong Province, and the enemy entrenched in Tongguan was sandwiched into a lonely army.
In this way, the battlefield situation will become a pattern in which the eastern front can only passively defend, the western front maintains limited containment, and the central front goes all out to attack.
This result made me feel a little disappointed and a little glad that I thought that I would be in a hurry and at least one or more fierce battles.
