Chapter 336: Zhao'an (1)
However, Yang Zaixing still had some concerns, and hesitated: "Brother Zhang Yong, I raided Wang Shen's old nest in Huangzhou, putting him in a dilemma of losing his foothold, and almost let him lose under Kong Yanzhou. In that battle, both armies paid a lot of casualties, it can be said that they have formed a deep feud, is Wang Shen willing to take me in? ”
Listening to his tone, it seemed that he had the intention of accepting the Sizhou army's recruitment, Zhang Yong breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "This is on the battlefield, either you die or I live, everyone has guns and arrows, and if you die, you can only complain about your own life and complain about others." Public war is not the same as personal vendettas, and everyone understands this. Don't talk about us, with the hero of Brother Yang, if you go to join the Sizhou army, I'm afraid that Wang Daosi will be overjoyed, and greet you, is there any reason to push you out? ”
He continued: "Although the Sizhou army is good at fighting, after all, there are not many people and horses, and its strength is limited. Now, it is Cao Cheng's army of thieves, the Jurchen Khitan, and the troublemaker Li Cheng behind. It is the time to employ people, and we will definitely be welcomed in the past. If it had been put in the past, I was afraid that people would not take us seriously. ”
Yang Zaixing nodded: "Yes, the icing on the cake is nothing more than sending carbon in the snow." Besides, Wang Dao Siquan is in a high position, and he is a hero, so he admires him a little. Only such a person knows that I Yang Zaixing is serving, so I will follow the eldest brother's, let's go! ”
In fact, Yang Zaixing came from the south and joined Cao Cheng's command, and he was unwilling to be unknown for a lifetime, and wanted to make a big career. Now he is slipping back to Hunan, and he is unwilling.
If you don't go back, this bit of centaur will be eaten sooner or later. Then, it becomes the only choice to take refuge in a force that you can look down on.
Although he kept saying that he was the descendant of the Yang family, if he really traced back, the ghost knew how he, the southern sword god, could be involved with Yang Laolinggong, the founding general of the Northern Song Dynasty. In the eyes of others, he is just a Yao hero.
The Yao people are enthusiastic and cheerful, and their minds are pure, and sometimes they can't think about so many things at all.
In real history, when Yang Zaixing fought for Cao Fei and Yue Fei, he was surrounded by Yue's army and fell like a mountain stream. Just as the soldiers of the Yue family army were about to shoot him to death, Yang Zaixing simply shouted: "Why don't you insist on me to see Yue Fei?" "Let the soldiers of the Yue family tie him up.
After seeing Yue Fei, he was succumbed by Grandpa Yue's demeanor, surrendered happily, and became the first brave general under Yue Fei.
Although Yang Zaixing is fierce and ferocious, he only has a firm stand on the national righteousness. Later, he also died heroically on the battlefield of the Northern Expedition and became benevolent. This is also the reason why he saw Cao Cheng defecting to Pseudo Qi as a traitor before, and he took Zhang Yong to kill Cao Ying without saying a word.
Wang Shenshi's hero, fight for him, be his disciple and soldier, and be not ashamed.
At that moment, the group hurriedly traveled all night and rushed to Zhang Yong's old camp.
Hearing that his own military master was ambushed by Cao Cheng and almost died, the soldiers were extremely angry. At that moment, he gathered his team, took all his baggage, and pulled out the camp and walked towards the side of Shengjie's army.
Zhang Yong still has more than 1,000 men and horses under his command, fortunately, these are the elite of his army, plus Yang Zaixing's Panwang army is suitable for mountain warfare, and he suddenly walked fast, but in two hours, he saw the Shengjie army camp in the valley from a distance, guarding the main road of Suizhou and Anlu transportation.
*******************************************************
It's overcast. Dark clouds gathered overhead, and it looked like a rain was coming, and it would be a day or two at the latest.
Early in the morning, Wu Xianxian, the commander of the Shengjie Army, sat on the earthen ramparts on the high ground, staring intently at the slopes on both sides of the valley, with a worried face.
The camp of the Shengjie army was set up in a stockade, which was originally a manor of a large family, and there were hundreds of families. The terrain here is very high, just right to hold the official road. Because it is necessary to prevent thieves from robbing, after several generations of construction, there are stone watchtowers and long fences everywhere, and trenches are dug and deer are built, which is simply the same as the dock fort of Hebei tyrants.
It's a pity that the strong fortifications still failed to keep the people safe, and when Cao Cheng and other thieves retreated from Anlu to Suizhou, they still easily broke through this stockade. The people inside also fled and disappeared, and now it has become the old camp of the Shengjie army.
The temperature was too low, and Wu Xianxian sat here, just as the wind was blowing, his face was blue by the cold wind, and he was only tightly wrapped around the big coat on his body.
An adjutant general whispered: "General Wu, it's too cold here, you might as well go back to the house to rest." We have an advantageous position, and the brothers are not afraid of the attack of the thief army. ”
Wu Xianxian shook his head: "It's not a big mistake to be careful, my eyelids are jumping hard today, I feel that something should happen, and I have to stay here to feel at ease." ”
"General, it's going to be fine, it's going to rain now, take care of yourself."
"It's because it's going to rain that it's going to be a problem." Wu Xianxian said: "When it rains, the roads are muddy, and it is not good to fight. ”
Adjutant General: "Isn't it just right that the roads are muddy, and the thieves can't gather a large army to attack." ”
Wu Xianxian smiled: "Let's not blindly stick to it, it's not a way to confront each other like this." I would like to fight the thieves in a dignified manner, and if we defeat one of them, we will be able to deter the ugly people from going south, and then we will be free to support the other battlefields. Our army is all heavily armoured, if the road is damaged by rain, how can we walk? I heard that Gu Lie's side was also playing very badly, everyone was deadlocked, and it was not a game to go on like this. ”
The lieutenant general said angrily: "Yes, this appearance is also very annoying now." Especially Zhang Yong on the other side, he didn't dare to come over to fight, let's attack it, the time is not ripe, this is stuck by a kraft candy. ”
Wu Xianxian pondered for a moment and said, "That's right, you can't go on like this." Wait and see, wait for the rain to fall, if the road can still walk, let's take the initiative to attack. ”
As he was talking, suddenly, a sentry shouted in front of him: "There is a situation, there are many people!" ”
"What are the number of people?" Wu Xianxian and the adjutant general asked at the same time.
Sentinel: "At least more than a thousand, it's not good to say that there are two people, could it be that Zhang Yong came with the whole army?" ”
As he was talking, the sound of horses' hooves came from outside the camp, which turned out to be scouts sent out to guard. As they ran, they shouted loudly: "Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong is here with the whole division!" ”
In the blink of an eye, the scout ran to the front of the village, stopped his horse, and couldn't help but breathe. He looked nervous, and his head was covered in dust.
Before Wu Xianxian could speak, the deputy general beside him scolded loudly: "Seeing that you are cowardly like this, you don't have to lose the face of our victorious army." Zhang Yong, even if the whole army comes, more than 1,000 people and horses can still take down our stockade. The general of the defeated army, I can't wait to find his bad luck, he should recite Amitabha. ”
The scout leader gasped for a while before he said, "General Wu, it's not that I'm cowardly, I'm too tired from running just now, you have to let me breathe...... Huh, yes, yes, a thousand soldiers are nothing, but today's situation is a bit strange, subordinates don't know what to say, and scouts are not easy to come forward to fight. I told them to be calm and watch, and hurried over to tell them. ”
Wu Xianxian: "But it's weird, what's wrong?" ”
The scout leader pointed into the distance: "The thief army is coming quickly, and it will arrive in a while, general, you better see for yourself!" ”
The adjutant next to Wu Xianxian was annoyed: "When are you still selling Guanzi?" ”
Wu Xianxian saw that the scouts' expressions were strange, but their expressions were relaxed, so he said, "That's it, then I'll wait for now." Pass my orders, and all the armies will be on alert. ”
At the sound of an order, all the Shengjie soldiers came out. Catapults, crossbows and arrows were all in place, and shiny armor and weapons were everywhere.
The officers of the Shengjie Army gathered around Wu Xianxian and waited for dispatch.
After waiting for a while, there was a sound of footsteps ahead. Dust rose at the bend in the official road in the distance, followed by countless white flags.
The officers of the "White Flag ......" all took a breath of cold air.
Everyone naturally knows what the white flag means, and it is to surrender.
"Yes, it's all white flags." The scout leader smiled even more bitterly: "General Wu, when the previous subordinates saw the whole division of Zhang Yong's division coming, they planned to rush up to entangle the battle, delay and confuse the enemy army. It is strange to say that Zhang Yong did not release any sentry agents, all the soldiers were not wearing armor, and they also waved white flags. When he saw us, he shouted loudly, saying that he was willing to accept Wang Jun's envoy and accept our Sizhou army's recruitment. I didn't know what to do, so I hurried back to tell you. ”
"Accept Zhao'an?" Wu Xianxian and everyone were stunned, the two sides were still confronting each other a while ago, the scouts were fighting to the death in this mountainous area, and now the surname Zhang suddenly came to surrender, which made them feel very unreal.
A general couldn't help but say: "General Wu, could this be Zhang Yong's deception, can't we let him do it?" ”
"Fraud...... It's possible? The other interjected.
"No, no, no, it doesn't seem to be." Wu Xianxian shook his head: "If Zhang Yong wants to surrender, he will have to wait until the mountains and rivers are exhausted." Nowadays, there are strong enemies inside and outside our Sizhou army, and the military envoy is not in Jianghan, so to be honest, the situation is very bad. Especially after the female Allah force went south, the thief army already had a certain advantage, and Zhang Yong had no reason to surrender! ”
"yes, how is that possible?" There was confusion on everyone's faces.
As he spoke, Zhang Yongbu got closer.
Suddenly, two horsemen suddenly crossed the formation and rushed towards the barracks.
The officer of the Victorious Army shouted: "Archers prepare, aim, aim!" ”
Wu Xianxian: "Put down the bow and take a look." ”
Soon, the two horsemen ran to the front of the barracks.
One person shouted loudly: "Listen, the people inside, I am Yang Zaixing, and this person next to me is General Zhang Yong, hurry up and report and tell Wu Xianxian that we want to talk to him, and invite him to come out of the camp to see him." ”
Hearing that it was Yang Zaixing, the soldiers of the Shengjie Army stirred slightly. Everyone has heard of this person's bravery, this is a fierce man with several masters in the lone army! Not only was the military envoy full of praise for his martial arts, but even General Yue Yun, who was arrogant when he thought about it, was privately convinced of his martial arts.
Unexpectedly, not only Zhang Yong came alone today, but also Yang Zaixing accompanied him.
Wu Xianxian poked his head out: "I am Wu Xianxian, it turns out that you are General Yang Zaixing, and you have been admired for a long time." ”
Yang Zaixing was very impatient: "Wu Xianxian, can't you come out?" ”
Everyone around Wu Xianxian said: "General, this person is ferocious, and he should not take risks lightly." ”
Yang Zaixing saw that there was no movement inside, and couldn't help but sneer loudly: "What, I'm afraid, it turns out that they are all cowards!" ”
The soldiers of the victorious army were furious, and some people were already shouting: "Bow the wind, shoot this birdman!" ”
