Chapter 246: The Great Liang Lineup
Seventy percent of the officers and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were archers, and if it weren't for Lu Junyi's four people who entangled Tie Fangliang and a few people, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers would have greeted them with bows and arrows.
At this time, Lu Junyi and the four of them were forced into the door by the archers at the head of the city, but they gave the officers and soldiers under the city a chance to use bows and arrows.
Seeing that the four of them were about to die under the arrows, iron arrows suddenly roared from outside the city, passed through the gap around the four people, and shot the officers and soldiers who were about to shoot arrows on the opposite side to the ground.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the officers and soldiers on the opposite side who were about to release arrows fell to the ground.
When the rest of the officers and men saw this, they immediately dispersed in fright.
When Wen Zhizhou sent the soldiers and horses from the city down again, the soldiers and horses of Liangshan had already entered the city.
Liangshan easily won Tai'an Prefecture, and Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Gongsun Sheng won the first credit.
Chao Yong immediately marched in Tai'an Prefecture, preparing to meet the army of Gao Yu.
Gao Yu had just gathered 100,000 troops at this time, and when he heard that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan had conquered Tai'an Prefecture again, he did not dare to delay any longer, bid farewell to the Son of Heaven, and the army went out.
After a few days, they came to the Jeju border.
Uncle Zhang, the governor of Jeju, did not dare to slack off at night, and hurriedly went out of the city to greet him in person, and Gao Yu ordered the army to stay outside the city.
This Zhang Shuye is also the person who recruited Song Jiang in history, and he is also a very legendary figure.
At the beginning of his career, Zhang Shuye was ordered to go to the northwest border to serve as a secretary in Lanzhou to join the army. At that time, the Qiang people from outside the country often entered the country to plunder. After Uncle Zhang arrived at office, he inspected and understood the situation in many ways, and ran around to survey the terrain, and finally selected the Tiandu place where it was important to establish Xi'an Prefecture and set up defenses to guard the northwest border. After the establishment of Xi'an Prefecture, it effectively curbed the invasion of the Qiang people, alleviated the anxiety of border instability for the imperial court, and also relieved the hardships of the soldiers who were trapped along the river and could not relieve their armor for many months.
After being promoted for merit, he later served as the governor of three places one after another, and he also had a lot of political achievements in the locality, and was gradually promoted to the treasury member Wailang, Kaifeng Shaoyin, and then transferred to the right division of the Wailang. However, it was Cai Jing who seized power and formed a party for personal gain. Uncle Zhang was just erect in the world, and his reading ability was not attached, and Cai Jing was dissatisfied. It happened that Zhang Shuye's cousin wrote to impeach Cai Jing, so Cai Jing was even more angry with Zhang Shuye. Uncle Zhang was immediately reprimanded and sent out of Beijing to the northwest to supervise the pasture.
After Cai Jing dismissed the prime minister for the second time, Zhang Shuye was recalled by the imperial court again, and successively served as a secretary and a young eunuch, a scholar and a secretary of the middle school, and was promoted to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites. But the good times didn't last long, and within a few years, Cai Jing appeared for the third time, suppressed and attacked Zhang Shuye again, and was sent out to serve as the governor of Haizhou.
When Cai Jing was deposed for the third time, he transferred Zhang Shuye from Haeju to Jeju to become the governor of Jeju, wanting to use the power of Yangsan to eliminate political enemies.
However, after Uncle Zhang arrived at office, he learned about the situation in Liangshan in many ways, and after learning about the situation in Liangshan, he just stuck to the city and did not provoke Liangshan.
Gao Yu only brought some personal soldiers into the city and dismounted in front of the yamen.
"See Lord Lieutenant."
"See Lord Lieutenant."
The officials in the state greeted him in front of the door early, and when they saw Gao Yu in a purple official robe, they hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.
Gao Yu only nodded slightly, and walked inside.
A group of officials hurriedly followed.
Uncle Zhang hurriedly said: "The lower official has prepared a banquet for the adults in the lobby, please come here." ”
Gao Yu said: "Let's talk about business first, Liangshan is a grass thief, robbing the state capital, killing officials and people, and creating evil is not only one end, but it is often arrested, and it is impossible to cover it, causing it to breed." I now command an army of 100,000 and 100 generals, and I will sweep away the cottage and capture the thieves to calm the people. You are on the front line in Jeju, and the grain and grass that the officer asked you to prepare are ready? ”
Uncle Zhang hurriedly said at night: "Don't worry, my lord, the grain and grass needed by the army are all ready." ”
Gao Yu nodded and said: "That's good, this expedition, Jeju is a place where grain and grass are hoarded, and you must do your duty to ensure the needs of the army." ”
Uncle Zhang hurriedly said at night: "The lower officials strictly follow the teachings of adults. ”
Uncle Zhang thought for a while, and said: "Lord Taiwei is above, although the soldiers and horses of Liangshan are crazy in the mountains and forests, there are many wise and brave people in the middle. ”
Gao Yu led 100,000 troops this time, and he was full of pride, and when he heard Zhang Shuye say this, he couldn't help but be furious, and scolded: "It's like a cowardly man like you, afraid of swords and avoiding swords, greedy for life and afraid of death, and mistaken national affairs, so that he developed a thief." I am here with an army of 100,000 now, what is there to fear! ”
Uncle Zhang couldn't listen to Gao Yu at night, so he dared to speak again, so he had to lead Gao Yu and others to eat wine and food.
Gao Yu ate wine and food, inspected the city again, and then left the city.
The next day, he drove the army and came to Tai'an.
Although Gao Yu was arrogant on his face, he had to be reminded by Uncle Zhang at night, and he also remembered that there were fierce generals such as Lin Chong, Hu Yanzhuo, and Guan Sheng in Liangshan, and he didn't dare to be careless.
The soldiers were carefully allocated, and Duan Pengju, the supervisor of the soldiers and horses of Suizhou, was the vanguard, Chen Zhu, the governor of Zhengzhou, was the deputy vanguard, Wu Bingyi, the governor of Chenzhou, was the deputy commander, Li Ming, the governor of Xuzhou, Han Tianlin, the governor of Tangzhou, Wang Yi, the governor of Dengzhou, was the left post, Ma Wanli, the governor of Xunzhou, and Zhou Xin, the supervisor of Songzhou, was the right sentinel, the two generals of the dragon and tiger were beautiful, Bi Sheng was the wings of the Chinese army, and Gao Yu was the marshal, and the commander-in-chief of the army was draped all over his body and personally supervised.
The drums of war are three links, and all the armies are up.
After walking for more than 20 miles, he entered the boundary of Tai'an Prefecture, only to see the place where the dust started, and there was already an enemy sentry road, which was approaching.
At the place where the bell rings, there are about 30 horsemen, all wearing green scarves, each wearing a green jacket, immediately tied with red tassels, dozens of copper bells are tied on each side, and a pheasant tail is inserted in the back, all of which are silver slender spears, light bows and short arrows.
The general who came immediately wrote on the flag: "The leader of the patrol post has no feathers and arrows Zhang Qing." "There is Gong Wang on the left, Ding Desun on the right, straight to the front of Gao Yu's army, not far away, only one hundred and ten steps, Le Ma will return.
The second general of the vanguard of the former army, without military orders, did not dare to move, reported to the Chinese army, and the commander Gao Yu personally came to the front of the army.
Gao Yu saw that Zhang Qing was so rampant, so he wanted to send someone to chase after him.
Zhang Liang Jia Juxin, who was next to him, remembered the information of the generals who voted for Liangshan, and said: "This person is full of stones in the brocade bag behind the saddle, and he can't throw it away, and he can't fight the generals, so he only approached with a large army, and they retreated." ”
When Gao Yu heard this, he also ordered the army to continue to advance and not to fight.
Zhang Qing was sentry three times in a row, but he didn't see Gao Yu send a general to fight, but he was crushed by a large army, and then he returned stupidly.
Gao Yu's army traveled less than five miles, only heard the sound of gongs behind the mountain in front of him, and turned out a thousand regiments of soldiers early, and the leader of the first four infantry troops was the black whirlwind Li Kui, who had no face and was scorched, and the eight-armed Xiang Chong, the flying sage Li Gon, went straight to come.
The 1,000 regimental cards were laid out on the hillside, and the regimental cards on both sides were tied together.
Gao Yu saw that there were only 1,000 soldiers and horses, so he immediately let the soldiers and horses of the front army brigade rush forward.
Li Kui and Jiao Ting saw that Gao Yu's army was menacing, and led the infantry army to separate the two roads, both carrying the brute card upside down, and walked around the foot of the mountain.
Gao Yu's army drove out of the mountain mouth, only to see a group of Pingchuan wilderness.
When Jia Juxin saw it, he hurriedly said: "Liangshan has formed a horse army, and this wilderness is suitable for cavalry to charge. The lieutenant can order the front army to stop the pursuit, tie up the position, and then advance to Tai'an Prefecture. ”
Gao Yu remembered Hu Yanzhuo, who had been captured by Liang Shan before, and looked at the surrounding flat land, if the ironclad chain horse charged forward, he was afraid that the front army would be scattered, so he hurriedly ordered the front army to stop the pursuit and form a formation on the spot.
Gao Yu's army lined up the military horses into a formation, and Li Kui and the others had already fled.
Gao Yu's army rolled forward, and after traveling a few miles, he saw that the Liangshan soldiers and horses in front of him had also set up a formation.
This team of people and horses on the south, all of them are flame red flags, red armor and red robes, Zhu Ying red horses, a red flag in front of the army, the top of the gold sales of the Southern Dipper six stars, embroidered with the shape of the red bird, the flag moves, the red flag gushes out of a general, how to end the life, the flag is written clearly: "The pioneer general leopard head Lin Chong."

The Chinese army has erected a yellow flag high, which has been replaced by the original apricot yellow flag of Tianxingdao to the national flag of Daliang, with a beam character embroidered on the yellow flag, and a black dragon with teeth and claws.
The strong man who holds the flag is one foot tall. It is the dangerous road god Yu Bao Four.
Under the banner, there are twenty-four Fang Tian painting halberds lined up on both sides. In the twelve halberds in his left hand, he held a general, Xiao Wen Hou Lu Fang.

Two brothers, each holding three lotus forks, led a line of infantry soldiers to guard the Chinese army.
