Volume 3 Jiangnan Dang Chapter 261 [Siege]
Hearing Tong Guan speak to himself, Huang Jie somehow felt flustered and short of breath, and his ankles were trembling, very nervous.
Fortunately, Han Jinbao hurriedly picked up the conversation and said: "Captain Yu, this son is the nephew of Yao Zheng, the water and land transfer envoy of Huangzhou, surnamed Huang Mingjie Ziying, that Yao Zheng Yao was seriously injured on the way to transport grain and grass, and Huang Jie took the place of his uncle's errand and escorted the grain and grass here as scheduled." ”
"Oh? Huang Jie Huang Ziying? Tong Guan frowned and thought about it, then suddenly clapped his finger at Huang Jie and said, "But what about Weicheng teppanyaki?" Hahaha! Good! I also know how to be filial to my uncle and loyal to the court, not bad! Don't be vain, get up! ”
After speaking, Tong Guan also affectionately pulled Han Jinbao away, and while talking, he entered the Ma military camp and walked around at will, and then he had to hold the Japanese generals and horses all down the mountain road.
As for Huang Jie, of course, he couldn't follow, so Liu Qi accompanied him at the mountain pass to watch the officers and soldiers continue to descend from Tongling, and later Liu Qi asked for permission from the officials and soldiers in charge, so he took two horses and took Huang Jie down the mountain to see, only to see a team of officers and soldiers walking out of the mountain road after lining up on the gentle slope below the mountain, and Tong Guan's handsome flag was also displayed on a high slope.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the officers and troops formed more than 40 infantry military formations and more than 10 cavalry formations at the foot of the mountain, and slowly marched towards the direction of Anqing City under the sound of drums and bugles.
The foot of this Tongling Mountain is less than ten miles away from Anqing City, and the military formation formed by 50,000 officers and soldiers is afraid of a depth of one or two miles, so the army listens to the drum and trumpets and stops for less than a moment, and sits down on the spot to rest. Subsequently, there was a steady stream of people with the army pushing chicken carts (also called wheelbarrows, dragon carts), donkey carts, mule carts and horse-drawn carts down the mountain road, loaded with various construction tools and materials to arrive in front of the military formation, and began to build a military village on the spot.
Count it up. The place where the army led by Tong Guan to build the military village is also three or four miles away from Anqing City. Because the ruins of the camp under the city of Anqing were set up by the Wuwei Army earlier, they are now not far from the forefront of the military formation.
This was followed by the construction of the military village. The army's dissolution and garrison's own officer arrangements definitely don't have anything to do with Huang Jie. Before nightfall, Tong Guan's army was located on the northwest, north and northeast sides of Anqing City, creating a huge military fortress composed of three groups of joint camps, like a crescent moon to stand in front of Anqing City and encircle the city again.
When the military village was largely completed and the Chinese army's big tent was built, Tong Guan made people beat the drum of the generals and summoned the officers and generals of the various armies to the commander's tent to discuss matters. Of course, this is nothing to do with Huang Jie, but Sima in the army still invited Huang Jie to go to the periphery of the tent and sit in the tent with more than a dozen Cao officials, priests and transfer envoys who came from all over the place, so as to prepare for some questioning.
It's just that the food used to entertain them is very coarse, not to mention meat, the stew is either salty to death, or fades out of the bird, Huang Jie picked up a bowl of corn and brown rice at will. He sat down at the foot of the tent and closed his eyes to recuperate, and began to sort out all the information about Tong Guan in his mind, and how he would deal with it if Tong Guan ordered him to go to the tent to ask questions.
This Tong Guan. The word Daofu (a Daofu), originally a native of Kaifeng, juggled under the eunuch Li Xian when he was a teenager. It is said to have a well-behaved temperament. From the time he was doing the palace to the palace, he was good at speculating on the intentions of the officials. Do what you promise in advance. After the current official Zhao Ji ascended the throne, he set up the Jinming Bureau in Hangzhou. Tong Guan was in charge of this matter at the beginning of the worship officer, and began to associate with Cai Jing.
Later, it is said that in Hangzhou, Huizong collected calligraphy and painting KitKat, helped Cai Jing to be the prime minister, Cai Jing recommended him as the Northwest Supervisor, led the Privy Council, and began to take charge of the military power, and the power was tilted inside and outside. Nowadays, when the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China call Cai Jing "public minister" and call him "concubine minister", it can be seen how monstrous his power is.
Cai Jing told the official family that Tong Guan had been sent to Shaanxi ten times, and he was familiar with the situation of the five roads and the talents of the generals, and he tried his best to recommend him as the supervisor of the Northwest Army. Later, Song joined forces with 100,000 troops and ordered Wang Hou to be the commander, and Tong Guan to be the supervisor like Li Xian. When the army arrived in Huangzhou, there happened to be a fire in the palace, and Zhao Guan's family hurriedly issued an edict, and the stagecoach conveyed the edict prohibiting the dispatch of troops. As a prisoner, Tong Guan opened it and put it in his boots, Wang Hou asked him why, Tong Guan replied: "Your Majesty hopes to succeed in sending troops." ”
Then sent troops to fight, actually recovered the four states, the official family was overjoyed, and moved to the Gyeongbok Palace, Xiangzhou Observation Envoy, the inner attendant with seniority to serve as two envoys is from Tong Guan.
Soon, Tong Guan was the envoy of Xihe Lanhuang and Qinfeng Road Jingluo to pacify the system, and was continuously promoted to the envoy of the Wukang Army.
However, Gao Yu and his festival seem to have started from the crusade against Xige Zang's expedition and the recovery of the Jishi Army and Taozhou. However, it is said that after Gao Yu made his fortune, Zhao Guan's family sent him to Liu Zhongwu's army to gild. Therefore, Liu Zhongwu in the third year of Chongning (1104) about October, Tubo Zhao Huaide and others rebelled against the Song Dynasty, and commanded a great victory and made Zhao Huaide and others surrender.
In the second year of Daguan (1108), Tong Guan and Liu Zhongwu achieved another great victory in the west, and they successfully recruited Zang Zheng, the prince of Qiang, to recover the Jishi army. Zhao Guan's family was very happy about this, and personally met with Liu Zhongwu, who was quite favored, and ordered Zhongwu's nine sons to be officials, but Tong Guan made an obstacle and made Liu Zhongwu's nine sons into cabinet gates.
However, for this section, Huang Jie also looked for an opportunity to dig a lot of news from Liu Qi's mouth, first of all, Zhao Huaide's rebellion against the Song Dynasty was actually a large-scale counterattack by the Western Xia and the local forces of the Qingtang Dynasty against the Northern Song Dynasty to occupy the Qingtang region, and the time was the beginning of the fourth year of Chongning.
And Liu Zhongwu was neither a commander nor a merit in this incident, but was guilty. As a deputy general, he sent troops with Gao Yongnian to rescue Xuanwei City, and after Gao Yongnian was sent to Doroba by his own soldiers and was killed, Liu Zhongwu, as the second deputy general in the army, not only did not stabilize the army's heart and continue to complete the rescue mission, but fled all the way back to Xining and watched Xuanwei City be besieged. Two months later, the other two generals led the troops to relieve the siege of Xuanwei City, and Liu Zhongwu was also imprisoned in Qinzhou Prison.
In the second year of Daguan (1108), the Kefu Jishi army captured Zang Pu Zhengge alive, which was actually Tong Guan in charge of the overall situation, and the temporary commander-in-chief in the military was Liu Fa. Originally, the task assigned to Liu Zhongwu was to block Zang Puzhengge's retreat, but Liu Zhongwu took advantage of the victories of several other armies and risked sending his eldest son Liu Xi into Xige City to persuade Zang Puzheng to surrender and succeeded.
Therefore, afterwards, Tong Guan probably thought that Liu Zhongwu was suspected of stealing merit, so he did not particularly emphasize Liu Zhongwu's merits. And Liu Zhongwu's contribution was highlighted because Gao Yu was blowing the wind in front of Zhao Guan's family, but in the end, Tong Guan was obstructed from it, and Liu Qi and them were all made into pavilions.
Now, the person above Huang Jie is Gao Yu, and the younger brother next to him is Liu Zhongwu, and he also sold Han Jinbao and praised the Japanese army a big favor, so he should be able to withstand Tong Guan's means, right? (To be continued.) )
