Chapter 717: Tang Prefecture (3)
Chapter 717: Tangzhou (3)
The county watchman's house.
Kong Sheng sat on the main seat, Yang Tong accompanied him, and Zhang Xiao and Yuan Chao were also seated.
Yang Tong said with a solemn face: "King Jun, the students think that the Shannan Army and the Jiangnan Army are scattered, if they don't disrupt the integration and reorganization as soon as possible, I am afraid that they will be defeated in the battle formation." Not only will it be difficult to complete the mission of the imperial court to conquer Luoyang, but it will also affect the two large armies of Guo Linggong and General Li to enter Henan. ”
Kong Sheng nodded: "What Mr. said is very true. ”
Yuan Chao hesitated for a moment, but still got up and bowed down and said: "The king of the county, but in the opinion of the lower officials, it is not easy to merge the two armies of Jiangnan and Shannan, at present. ”
Zhang Xiao was surprised: "Why? ”
Yuan Chao sighed lightly and said: "Lord Zhang, in the past two days, the lower officials have been walking in the Shannan army, and they have heard a lot of rumors, and the Shannan army thinks that the merger of the two armies is to seize the military power of Shannan, and they reject and resist in their hearts. Some people even clamored that they wanted to break away from the control of the county king and be directly led by Xue Hui to advance into Henan. ”
Zhang Xiao's face changed: "Bastard thing!" The county king is the commander-in-chief of the Shannan Jiangnan military and government, and the imperial court has already set up the Jiangnan Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to control the two soldiers and horses, and this Shannan army dares to be so arrogant and rude, and its crime is not small! ”
Yang Tong also shook his head and said: "The military discipline of this Shannan Army is not as good as that of the Jiangnan Army, and the students have heard about many evil deeds of Shannan evil soldiers who have taken away and plundered the property of the people in the city in the past two days, and there are even the despicable and dirty acts of ** people's daughters, it is simply hard to believe that this is the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and the dignified officials and soldiers!" ”
Kong Sheng's expression became gloomy: "There is such a thing? ”
Yang Tong smiled bitterly, hugged his fists and said, "King of the county, how dare the student be untrustworthy? ”
Kong Sheng was so angry that Huo Ran got up, and was about to say a few words, when suddenly a soldier hurriedly came to report: "County King, the big thing is not good, hundreds of Shannan soldiers surrounded the two county lords on the Moon Tower, and the conflict is about to break out!" ”
Mochizuki Tower is the largest tavern in Tangzhou Castle. Business just resumed yesterday. Although Su Wu and Gu Yun are nominally generals by Kong Sheng's side, they actually have nothing to do, and the two girls are extremely bored, so they go out of the county guard mansion together and walk around the city, which can be regarded as an experience of the people of Tangzhou.
When I arrived outside the Moon Tower, I saw that the business inside was good and there were many diners, so I moved my mind for a while, so I went in and occupied a seat, asked for a few kinds of wine and food, and prepared to use some wine and rice.
It's also deserved. The Shannan soldiers on duty on the city gate tower changed shifts, and this group of dozens of people went down the city gate tower under the leadership of the small leader, and when they passed by the Moon Tower, they broke in and called for three drinks and four to let the store serve wine and food, and it was clear that they wanted to eat white food.
But these Shannan troops are now the biggest nightmare of the people in the city, and no one dares to provoke them. The store didn't dare to slack off, and immediately greeted with good wine and food, if so, it would be fine, but one of the Shannan soldiers went to pass by the cloister, and accidentally saw Su Wu and Guyun sitting opposite each other, beautiful as flowers, so they teased a couple of sentences with the intention of drinking.
What a noble identity Su Wan and Gu Yun are, and they are the fiancée of Kong Sheng, the king of Jiangning County, although Gu Yun still does not admit that she is Kong Sheng's woman, but this is not something that a few Shannan soldiers can tease. The bone cloud was as hot as fire, and he couldn't hold it back immediately, and whipped the evil pawn with a whip.
This person fled in embarrassment, and after a while, dozens of Shannan soldiers rushed in. But although they are outnumbered, Su Wu and Gu Yun are highly skilled, and the two women joined forces, and they threw these evil pawns to the ground with an understatement.
Since the Shannan Army was stationed in Tangzhou, it has always flaunted its might and bullied the people, and it has never suffered this kind of hardship. The two folk girls dared to beat the officers and soldiers, and it didn't take long for them to alarm the Shannan military captain who was patrolling the city - Xue Chong, who was also a distant relative of the Xue family. Xue Chong was furious, and led hundreds of soldiers under his command to surround the Moon Tower, and put on a posture of arresting Su Wu and Gu Yun.
How could Su Wan and Gu Yun be afraid of these Jiangnan troops. Not to mention just a few hundred, even tens of thousands, the two daughters can leave calmly. It's just that Su Wu is quite scheming, and knows that although the Shannan Army is unbearable, and the military appearance and military discipline are extremely loose, but at this moment, it is the time for Kong Sheng to employ people, and it is not good to tear his face with the Shannan Army too much.
Therefore, Su Wu and Gu Yun patiently stayed upstairs, waiting for Kong Sheng to come forward.
When Kong Sheng heard that something was wrong with Su Wu and Gu Yun, he immediately got up and ran out of the county guard's mansion, and galloped towards Wangyue Tower with Li Biao and several guards on horseback.
Xue Chong was about to command his soldiers to rush into the Moon Tower to get people, when he suddenly saw Kong Sheng leading the escort army to arrive, he was a little surprised, but he was also fearless. The fight between two people's girls and the officials and soldiers is in itself a provocation.
Xue Chong didn't notice Kong Sheng's angry and gloomy face. He clasped his fists and saluted Kong Sheng: "The last general, Xue Chong, has seen the king of the county!" ”
Kong Sheng snorted coldly and raised his head and was silent.
Li Biao reprimanded angrily: "What kind of crime should you be guilty of daring to gather a crowd to surround the restaurant and disturb the order in the city?!" ”
Xue Chong was neither humble nor arrogant, and said with a faint smile: "General Li, the last general is on duty to patrol the city, and when he meets the Moon Tower, he sees that there are gangsters beating the officers and soldiers, and the last general is on duty, so he naturally wants to gather people to arrest the culprit, why not?!" ”
At this time, the window on the second floor of the Moon Tower opened, and the two graceful figures of Gu Yun and Su Wu flew to the ground. The face of the Shannan soldier changed, and he immediately surrounded and stepped forward, facing the two women.
Li Biao was really angry.
These evil deeds of the Shannan army are obvious, and he has heard a lot about them in the past two days, and he has long been dissatisfied. Today, a lieutenant colonel of the Shannan Army dared to lead the crowd to besiege Su Wu and Gu Yun, the fiancées of the two Jiangning county kings, and the county lords canonized by the imperial court, and the madness of his courage is difficult to describe in words.
Moreover, this is still in front of Kong Sheng.
There is no one in the eyes of these Shannan troops, which can be seen.
Su Wu took a long time to be surrounded by a group of southern soldiers and said indifferently: "What crime did the two of us commit?" You Shannan evil pawns, molesting the people's girls in public, and dare to beat a rake and falsely accuse the two of us of beating the officials and soldiers? ”
Xue Chong snorted: "Nonsense!" We are the officials and soldiers of the imperial court, and we are ordered to rebel, how can we flirt with the people's daughters? Come on, quickly take these two demon girls down and hand them over to General Xue for punishment! ”
Kong Sheng was furious. He let out a long roar when he looked up to the sky, and the Wind Chasing Divine Horse let out an equally angry hissing sound on his back.
Kong Sheng got off the horse, walked slowly to the front, and said indifferently: "What a rebel!" What a punishment for General Xue! This king didn't know that Xue Hui, a deputy general of the Shannan Army, and an insignificant general under this king, now has such power. ”
"The two of them - one is the lord of Raole canonized by the emperor, and the other is the lord of Anguo, both of whom are the wives of the king's unfinished families, and they are generals under the command of the king. Okay, since they have committed a big crime, Xue Chong, you quickly take down the two of them and hand them over to Xue Hui for questioning! Kong Sheng burst out: "If you don't take people yet, when will you stay?" ”
Xue Chong's face changed suddenly, becoming extremely pale. He only had Xue Hui in his eyes, and he didn't take Kong Sheng, the nominal commander, too seriously, but when he heard that Su and his daughter were the lords of the imperial court and Kong Sheng's fiancée, he was dumbfounded on the spot.
Xue Chong bowed down and said in a trembling voice: "The last general will not dare!" The last general didn't know that it was the county lord in person, and he was offended, and he asked the county king to forgive him! ”
"What qualifications do you have to call yourself the last general in front of this king? What are you? This time Kong Sheng was really angry, he raised his hand at Xue Chong and sneered: "Come on, go and invite that General Xue to this king!" Li Biao, pass on the Jiangning Iron Cavalry Battalion and Shenlongwei! ”
