Chapter 601: Wang Qing became so powerful

On November 17 of the fourth year of Xuanhe, the Huaixi thieves, who had been silent for a year, finally couldn't bear it anymore. No one knows why Wang Qing, who had been holding back in Dengzhou for a year, suddenly remembered to send troops to attack Henan Mansion, in fact, Wang Qing had no intention of waving his troops to the north at first, because he was really set to fight before and had a psychological shadow. However, half a month ago, an old man in a black robe came to the Shunyang Chu Palace, and after saying that it was powerful, Wang Qing had to think about it more. Now Liangshan Song Jiang has accepted Zhao'an and become a lackey of the imperial court, Tian Hu was destroyed, Tian Leopard was detained in Chang'an Prison, and the most powerful Fang La was also defeated and retreated under the advance and suppression of soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and now he has been forced to the area of Bangyuan Cave and Zitong Cave, and it is estimated that it will be a matter of time before he is destroyed. When Fang La is destroyed, will the court let him Wang Qing go? Of course not, so Wang Qing, who had been early, planned to raise troops to the south and attack Xiangfan and other places. I went to the south, far away from Gyeonggi Road, as long as I didn't make any big moves, the imperial court shouldn't make any efforts to encircle and suppress it, right? Wang Qing has such an idea, but Wang Qing is such a person, insidious and vicious, but he is also notoriously afraid of death, otherwise with his mental talent, he would not marry a female tyrannosaurus like Duan Sanniang.

As for how the black-robed old man made Wang Qing change his mind, it was actually simple, he just told Wang Qing that there was a huge fortune hidden somewhere in Luoyang, and with this wealth, not only could he recruit troops and buy horses, but with this money, coupled with Luoyang City, he could completely force the imperial court to negotiate in order to recruit peace and get the same treatment as Song Jiang. If Luoyang City alone can't impress the imperial court, but with that wealth, the imperial court will definitely agree to recruit An. So, Wang Qing's heart was moved. He wants to recruit An, but he doesn't have a lot of ideas like Song Jiang, he accepts Zhao'an just to survive and ask for a fortune. Rebellion was not what he thought. I followed the Duan family brothers and sisters back then, and this time I got on the thief ship, but I couldn't get off.

On November 18, Shangguan Yi, a general under Du Bai, led 20,000 Huaixi disciples to attack Longxing County in Ruzhou. It really made people unexpected, coupled with the fact that at this time, the forbidden army of Liangjing was dispatched by the imperial court, and some of them were trapped in the south of the Yangtze River to attack Fangla, and the soldiers and horses left near Luoyang added up to more than 20,000, and there were not many soldiers and horses in hand. Liu Guangshi was unable to urgently deploy reinforcements, and Hu Yanqing was near Yanshi County, so neither of them could send troops in time. There are only more than 100 villagers in Longxing County, plus less than 100 servants, who resisted for an hour, and then the county was broken by the thieves. Snatched the city of light. This time, Shangguan Yi did not kill anyone, but arrested all the people in the city. No one knows what Shangguan Yi wants to do, or he doesn't know what the hell Wang Qing is up to. If it is said that Shangguan Yi's fight against Longxing County is unexpected. And that's even more surprising to come.

After Longxing County arrived, he thought that Shangguanyi would be ordered to go north to attack Ruzhou, so Liu Guangshi also made arrangements, and ordered the general Cen Wenyuan to lead 5,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Ruzhou City, but what was surprising was that Shangguanyi not only did not go north, but also sent troops to the south and conquered Lushan County and Ye County in only one day. After conquering these two county towns, they still looted, and then tied up some people and put them in custody.

Luoyang City. Liu Guangshi and Hu Yanqing's heads were almost big, and they were completely confused by Shangguanyi. What the hell do the thieves want to do? In the past, it was common for thieves to rob the county, and it was not uncommon to arrest young and strong, but when would thieves detain ordinary people? Marching with a large number of ordinary people is simply adding a burden to themselves, so all along, any thief soldier will not carry too much burden when marching to fight, this time is an exception, the thief soldier not only marched with the people, but also feared that it would not be enough, and many towns were captured along the way.

Wang Qing is crazy hungry and wants to eat human flesh? How is it possible, but I have heard that Wang Qing eats human flesh, but they are all delicate little ladies, when is meat and vegetarian not taboo, and men, women and children eat it all? And there are so many people, it's inevitable that there are too many people, and it's strange if they don't die.

Shangguan Yi did evil in Ruzhou, Zuo Mou, Fang Han and others also tossed in Yingchang Mansion and Tangzhou, for two consecutive days, the Huaixi thieves did not go north in a big way, but tossed in the south of Henan Mansion. On November 22, Du Bai came out of Funiu Mountain and stormed Yiyang, because Du Bai opened a hole under the east city wall of Yiyang when he occupied Yiyang before, so a group of Huaixi thieves quietly sneaked into the dog hole, and when Pan Yunlin found that the situation was wrong, the thieves had already captured the east city gate inside and outside. On the same day, the city of Yiyang was broken, and the new Yiyang defense envoy Pan Yunlin was killed in battle, and more than 3,000 of the 5,000 defenders were killed and wounded, and the rest fled back to Luoyang. Du Bai reoccupied Yiyang, and Wang Qing also led more than 30,000 people to arrive from behind. Now Wang Qing is really a bit proud of the spring breeze, since the Duan family brothers died in the attack on Guanzhong a year ago, the forces belonging to the Duan family have gradually been swallowed up by Wang Qing and Du Bai, so Wang Qing gradually got rid of the shadow of the Duan family's brothers and sisters, what else can Duan Sanniang do now? This year, Wang Qingke really found a lot of beautiful girls, from ten to forty years old, what type has been tasted, Yiyang held it in his hand, and then he only needed to defeat Ruzhou, and then he could raise a large army to attack Luoyang, that is Luoyang, if he can fight down, it is good to go to Luoyang Palace to sit.

Wang Qing arrived in Yiyang, and Xiao Zhiyun's army had just arrived in Yuzhou. In fact, from Hangu Pass to Luoyang, with the speed of marching at a fixed pace, it can be reached in two days, but Xiao Zhiyun walked for four days. In some ways, Xiao Zhiyun seemed to be conniving at Wang Qing's attack on Luoyang, and on November 23, Xiao Zhiyun arrived in Mianchi County, west of Luoyang. On this day, Wang Qingqin led a large army, Shangguanyi, Zuo Mou, and Fang Han as generals, besieged Ruzhou City, in order to keep Ruzhou, when the 20,000 troops in Tokyo had not yet arrived, Liu Guangshi ordered Yanqing to lead more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to rush to Ruzhou. It can be said that there is no big problem with Liu Guangshi's deployment, Hu Yanqing led the troops all the way south, and soon came to Linru Town in the north of Ruzhou, just when Hu Yanqing was going to get in touch with the Ruzhou guards, the thieves who had been attacking Ruzhou for more than half a day were like cats smelling fishy, and they directly abandoned Ruzhou and ran towards Linru Town. Linru Town was too close to Ruzhou, and Hu Yanqing never thought that the thieves would abandon Ruzhou and instead use their strength to attack the reinforcements. There is no protection in Linru Town, and the number of people in Huyanqing is not dominant, and they are coming in a hurry. The soldiers are tired, so the best way to deal with it at the moment is to withdraw from Linru Town and avoid the front for the time being, which will inevitably cause the townspeople of Linru Town to suffer. But on the battlefield, sometimes what should be discarded has to be discarded. It's just that at this time, Hu Yanqing made a big mistake, he hesitated, but he still didn't give up these poor townspeople, in the south of Linru Town, Hu Yanqing's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses fought against Wang Qing's 40,000 army. As soon as the two sides fought, Hu Yanqing's soldiers and horses were entangled.

The fierce battle in Linru Town was in full swing, and a soldier and horse suddenly came out of Ruyang, secretly bypassed Linru Town, and appeared under Yingyang City at the end of the day. At this time, Yingyang's troops are empty, where can they stop the onslaught of thieves? It only took an hour, Wang Qing's general Wei He defeated Yingyang, Yingyang fell, and the news quickly spread to Linru Town. At this time, Hu Yanqing already knew the thoughts of the thieves and stormed Ruzhou. It is to force Luoyang to send reinforcements, and wait until the reinforcements are entangled, and then raid Yingyang. Blocking the way for reinforcements to retreat north, now the situation is that Yingyang is occupied, and cannot return north, there are a large number of thieves in front, and they can't go to Ruzhou, and they are attacked by the enemy. At death's door. If the current situation is not the worst, then the next thing makes Hu Yanqing feel desperate.

Maybe the thieves deliberately spread the news of the fall of Yingyang to Ruzhou. Ruzhou Mabu commanded Han Zitong for fear that the army in Linru Town would be attacked by the enemy and be annihilated by the thieves. ordered 4,000 battleable soldiers in Ruzhou and stormed behind the thieves. As a result, Han Zitong did not go out of the city for half an hour, and was ambushed at Luomapo, ten miles north of Ruzhou City, after two hours of vicious fighting, Han Zitong was killed in battle, more than half of the more than 4,000 soldiers in Ruzhou were killed and wounded, and the rest fled in all directions. Without Han Zitong's garrison in Ruzhou, what ability is there to fight against the thieves, at the beginning of November 25 in the fourth year of Xuanhe, Fang Han led 10,000 troops back to Ruzhou, this time Ruzhou only lasted a quarter of an hour, and was broken by the thieves. Han Zitong died in battle, Ruzhou fell, Hu Yanqing knew that it was meaningless for him to stay in Linru Town any longer, maybe if he stayed for a while, he would be swallowed by Yingyang and Ruzhou There were no bones left. Now there are only two roads in front of Hu Yanqing, either to enter Yingchang Mansion to the east and join up with the reinforcements from Tokyo, but this road will pass through Yingchang Mansion and will be severely obstructed by thieves. Either to the west, but this direction will face the strict blockade of Yiyang Dubai, and it looks much more dangerous than withdrawing to Yingchang Mansion. It didn't take long for Hu Yanqing to make a decision, he wanted to retreat westward, it seems that the west is very dangerous, but there are thieves stationed in Yiyang, as long as you pass Yiyang, you can go to Yongning and Bear's Ears Mountain, I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Qin let Princess Xiao lead the troops to help, and now he is stationed near Mianchi, with Princess Xiao's ability to lead the troops to fight, he will definitely send troops across Bear's Ears Mountain to occupy Yongning and Fuchang, so to the west, it seems dangerous, but in fact it is more likely to survive. On the night of November 25, the commander of the Mengzhou soldiers and horses led Hu Yanqing to lead more than 3,000 remnants of the army to extinguish the torches, and placed dummies on the periphery of Linru Town to confuse the thieves, and finally withdrew from Linru Town without danger.

Hu Yanqing fled, Wang Qing did feel a little pity, but he had already obtained Yingyang and Ruzhou, and it didn't matter much if he took a Hu Yanqing, and there was Du Bai stationed in the west, and it was unknown whether Hu Yanqing could escape.

On November 26 of the fourth year of Xuanhe, when everyone thought that Wang Qing would wave his troops north to directly besiege Luoyang City, Wang Qing let Zuo Mou lead 10,000 troops to attack Dengfeng in the east. Yong'an County is sandwiched between Luoyang and Zhengzhou, Tokyo soldiers and horses want to gallop to Luoyang, it is bound to pass through Yongan County, if Yong'an falls, Tokyo soldiers and horses are blocked, but it will be more than 10,000 Xijing forbidden troops to face nearly 80,000 thieves to attack. Liu Guangshi didn't know the importance of Yong'an County, but the troops were really stretched, so he failed to deploy heavy troops in Yong'an County early, and it was the thieves who caught this fatal loophole. In the past, Wang Qing's Huaixi thieves attacked the city and conquered the city, and rarely made so many bends, but in this confrontation, all the military movements, Wang Qing was like a different person.

Yong'an County can't be lost, if Yong'an is lost, without the assistance of Tokyo's soldiers and horses, Luoyang will be in danger. Reliable*? If Xijing Luoyang is given *, the official family will not give a good face. The troops in hand are insufficient, but they still squeezed out more than 5,000 soldiers and horses to reinforce Yong'an County, if these 5,000 soldiers and horses can reach Yong'an County, they will be able to solve Yong'an's urgent needs, waiting for reinforcements from Tokyo and Zhengzhou, right? It's a pity that Luoyang Soldiers and Horses Chengxuan made Bai Song just arrived in Yanshi County when he heard the news of the fall of Yong'an County. Yong'an fell too quickly, there were nearly 4,000 soldiers and horses stationed there, and Shangguan Yi and Fang Han had only 20,000 people in their hands, how could they fall so quickly, and they couldn't hold it even for three hours? It turned out that Shangguan Yi had just arrived in Yong'an County, and Fan Hui, the commander of the Yong'an Infantry Division, surrendered to the thieves, let go of the south gate of Yong'an, and the thieves swarmed in.

In just three days, Wang Qing ordered Du Bai to attack Yiyang, and on the grounds of attacking Ruzhou, Luoyang was transferred to send general Xijing soldiers and horses to aid Ruzhou, and then took advantage of the unstable reinforcement formation to turn around and storm Linru Town. Fighting with the reinforcements of Linru Town, it was a false move, and Wei He sneaked up on Yingyang, but the army of Linru Town was attacked by the enemy on the back of the abdomen, and while killing the army of Linru Town, he did not forget to spread the news of the fall of Yingyang to Ruzhou, which led Han Zitong to lead the troops to rescue Hu Yanqing, set up an ambush halfway, killed Han Zitong, and swallowed Ruzhou City in one go. When things got here, it was already staggering, but they didn't fight Luoyang, they fought Dengfeng and Yongan County all the way, and blocked the road for soldiers and horses to rush to help Tokyo and Zhengzhou. This pile is one by one, it is really a plan, false and real, which makes people unguardable.

If there are any shortcomings in Xijing soldiers and horses, the only drawback is the lack of troops, and Wang Qing's deployment of troops completely took advantage of this shortcoming, Linru Town cut nearly 10,000 Xijing soldiers and horses, resulting in Luoyang only more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, occupying Yingyang, Ruzhou, Dengfeng, Yong'an, blocking Luoyang's contact with Tokyo, reinforcements can not come, and they are also being attacked by Yong'an and Ruzhou directions, so that the seemingly indestructible Xijing Luoyang City has become a lonely city, relying only on the more than 10,000 demoralized more than 10,000 Xijing soldiers and horses, How to keep the ancient capital of Luoyang? Of course, there is still Ding*, but Liu Guangshi doesn't seem to want Ding* to enter Luoyang. (To be continued)
