Chapter 55 Going through the Lingchen River to put forward conditions

When the king saw the ancestral man, he was angry, and he slapped his horse and scolded: "Shameless woman, you actually did something to lure the wolf into the house, causing trouble to my Yuzhang County, and if you don't get off the horse and surrender, this county will exempt your woman from the crime of ignorance." ”

Zu Nan put the spear in his hand and said: "You dare to scold me shamelessly, my husband asked you for help that day, as the magistrate of a county, you were indifferent and let the thieves bully the beloved people of the county." You are so brazen, how can you be the official of my Yuzhang's parents again? ”

Wang Mastiff was scolded by him so much that his face was flushed, and in a hurry, he slapped the horse and came to fight Zunan with a gun.

The ancestor did not show weakness, but only pulled the reins, and the man who was in the law stood up, but he dodged a cold arrow by himself. When Wang Mastiff arrived, Zu Nan had already held his gun against the opponent's attack.

The two generals went back and forth, and they fought for a long time.

Wang Mastiff knew now that he was in a hurry, this ancestor was still so difficult, and there was an ancestor who didn't show up. Wrong? Where is Zulang? Could it be?

Thinking of this, Wang Mastiff's heart was half cold, and he even became sluggish when he shot out.

Things are just as Wang Mastiff expected, where would Zu Lang abandon Nanchang County and attack other counties.

At this moment, Zu Lang had already sneaked back to Nanchang County.

Eight hundred people each on the southeast, west and west roads had already been gathered together by Zu Lang, first attacked the water village next to the Ganjiang River, and then took Nanchang City in one fell swoop.

At this time, there were only hundreds of defenders in Nanchang City, and they were all county soldiers transferred from various counties, where did they know who Zu Lang was.

Zu Lang casually used some prepared county soldiers leather armor to deceive the city gate, and in the end, the hundreds of county soldiers could only surrender to Zu Lang.

Wang Mastiff saw that Zu Nan was just pestering himself, knowing that something was wrong, he shook a shot, then pulled out his horse and left, Zu Nan led the troops to pursue all the way, and actually drove twenty miles.

Wang Mastiff counted the rest of the people, and immediately scolded, but he scolded himself for how he was blinded by lard, and wanted to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, but he lost more than 1,000 people.

Not counting the hundreds of people killed on the spot, all the way down, there are more than 1,000 people who were lost, and Wang Mastiff is now, only 3,000 people are left out of 5,000 people, and the morale is extremely low.

Wang Mastiff analyzed the form, Nanchang must be occupied, the direction of the grandfather's retreat just now, but it was Haidu, and Haiyang County could not go, so he had to go north, Shangli Ling.

I didn't say it here, but I said that Yang Xi went ashore from Mengjiagang, brought Cai Kao and his 300 cavalry, and brought 6 rows of 300 people from Huaziji's department, and went straight to Chaisang.

When he arrived at Chaisang, Meng Zhaoyuan saw that it was Yang Xi, and hurriedly ordered someone to open the city to greet him.

Where have the county soldiers seen such a formation, they have seen a lot of naval troops, hundreds of cavalry, all of them are full of evil spirit, they have never seen it, and they were immediately frightened and did not dare to make a sound.

Besides, the county soldiers were originally 200, and Meng Zhaoyuan recently recruited another 100, and it was only 300 people.

Yang Xibing took over the Chaisang County soldiers without blood, handed over to Huazi for the time being, and a group of 900 people did not stop, and went straight to Liling.

Liling was very close to Chaisang, and within half a day, Yang Xi and his party had already arrived, but seeing that the banner of the king mastiff was still hanging at the head of the city, Yang Xi was also relieved.

Wang Mastiff has not been dazed by Zu Lang, knowing that he has been defeated for a while now, not an opponent, so he temporarily avoided the limelight and did not want to recapture Nanchang.

When Yang Xi and his entourage appeared outside the city, someone had already reported the matter to Wang Mastiff, and Wang Mastiff could barely hold the wine bottle in his hand.

"This Zulang, so powerful, has he come to Liling?"

The scout said: "Lord Taishou, it doesn't seem to be Zulang's team, Zulang's team doesn't have cavalry. ”

"Cavalry? I'm Yuzhang County, when a cavalry appears, come with me! ”

After Wang Mastiff, four or five guards also followed Wang Mastiff to the head of the city, but saw that outside the city, a team of 1,000 people was far away, and in front of it, there were indeed hundreds of cavalry galloping back and forth, leading the general, dressed in gray iron armor, with a spear in his hand, although he was only seven feet five inches tall, but he was majestic.

This person is none other than Cai Kao.

Cai Kao saw that someone had gone up to the city, and according to Yang Xi's meaning, he began to shout.

"I am Cai Kao, the battalion commander under the president of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, and the president knows that Lord Taishou has come to Liling, so I am here to invite you to discuss the plan to capture the thief!"

Wang Mastiff was stunned, this Yang Xi came too quickly, he was newly defeated, the front foot just arrived, his back foot came, less than an hour before and after, to say that he did not expect, Wang Mastiff did not believe it.

Wang Mastiff didn't think much about it, and asked the scout next to him: "What is this battalion commander?" ”

The scout said: "My lord, this battalion commander is the title of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is Yang Xi's self-named name for his own escorts, probably to attract the attention of others, and to make the name different." ”

"Hmmm! A captain of the guard can have such a demeanor, this Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, the picture is not small. A solemn look appeared on Wang Mastiff's face, and he faintly guessed the intention of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, but at this time he had no choice.

If you turn your face, then it's really a big deal, there are tigers and wolves in the back, and there can be no more jackals and leopards in front.

Thinking of this, Wang Mastiff said: "You go out and tell him, after half a pillar of incense, under the city, this county will set up a banquet to invite the president of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, please be sure to come." ”

"Order!"

Wang Mastiff had already guessed Yang Xi's thoughts, didn't he just want to take advantage of the fire to rob and get a piece of the pie.

The two sides sat down in the north and south, and Yang Xi brought Cai Kao, Huazi, and thirty cavalry behind him. Wang Mastiff brought several of his own county guards and led fifty people.

The first time he saw Yang Xi, Wang Mastiff was amazed in his heart, only to see that this person was eight feet tall, his face was white but angular, and he smiled, but it made people feel good, as if this person was born to be a friend.

This kind of person is either really sincere in his heart, or a smiling tiger.

Wang Mastiff naturally didn't think that the person in front of him would be a sincere person, so it could only be a later situation.

"The jade-faced killing god is really as good as his name, and today's soldiers are bloodless, so this county will honestly sit opposite and discuss the matter of the territory with you, which really makes me, a battle-hardened veteran, ashamed."

Wang Mastiff said this in a joking tone, but the joke was true.

Yang Xi played with the cup in his hand and said: "Lord Taishou, what you said is really serious, you are a huge Yuzhang County, I really can't bear it, you just give it to me, and those big families don't agree." Don't tell lies in front of real people, what I'm here to talk to Taishou about now, but it's not a matter of territory, but I want to talk to Taishou-sama about sincere cooperation. ”

"Don't want turf? Sincere cooperation? Wang Mastiff was a little puzzled, in this world, farmers want food, families want land, officials want rights, businessmen and thieves want land, this is common sense.

Yang Xi continued: "My lord, look at this huge city, my Chenhe Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce, what is the use of taking him? Let's put it this way, I, the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, sent 300 cavalry, 600 infantry and 1,000 sailors of the Chenhe fleet to help Lord Taishou take back Nanchang and defeat Zulang. But Lord Taishou wants to promise us a few conditions. ”
