Chapter 137: Battle Jingmen
Cui Yingying couldn't bear to tease him anymore, so she smiled and said, "I still don't know about you in your army, General Zhao told me a long time ago!" ā
"Ahh
Li Xingze's face suddenly turned into a bitter melon, except for Zhao Pusheng, there was no one else, although Cui Yingying was not an outsider, but when such a confidential thing was said, the more people who knew about it, the more troublesome it was. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Cui Yingying didn't care whether Li Xingze was surprised or not, and then said: "It's strange to say, the Yuan Court has stationed a lot of warships in Chuyang!" ā
Li Xingze, who got the news, couldn't sit still any longer, got up to say goodbye and left, and the angry Cui Yingying was slandered again.
......
"You mean, you want to hide from Chen Youliang's ears and eyes?"
After Li Xingze told the matter of Chuyang, Xu Shouhui fell into deep thought.
In fact, on the question of how to expand Huangzhou before, Peng Yingyu also gave instructions to come over, and it happened that Li Xingze's goal this time could be agreed, Xu Shouhui smiled and said: "Don't worry, tomorrow's military conference, you will know!" ā
Although he didn't know what medicine Xu Shouhui sold in his gourd, since he had talked about it, Li Xingze had to leave with his fists clenched.
This military discussion involved the territory of the Huangzhou Red Turban Army, and no one dared to delay, and the hall was full in the morning.
Xu Shouhui saw that all the people were there, and all the people from more than 100 households came, so he didn't talk nonsense, and directly announced the theme of this meeting.
As soon as these words fell, all the generals began to talk to each other, speaking of which, the larger the territory, the more opportunities for promotion in the future, and those who did not become a prince, a little ambitious, such as Chen Youliang and other brothers, secretly rejoiced.
This time, without Xu Shouhui's arrangement, Chen Youliang stood up impatiently and hugged his fists and said: "Marshal, the last general is willing to die for the forerunner!" ā
It's this Chen Youliang again, who was unknown before, and later fought with Li Junshi, and now his power is slowly rising.
When everyone saw that someone stood up, they all stood up and argued, and everyone knew that with Li Xingze following, there was a chance that this would be a battle to give credit.
Zou Pusheng just squinted his eyes, smiled and didn't say anything, this time it was the idea of acting in secret, Chen Youliang took the initiative to jump out, but it was better.
Xu Shouhui did not hesitate at all, and immediately clapped his hand and said: "General Chen, you and the general will lead the army to attack Jiujiang Mansion!" ā
I didn't expect to start with Jiujiang Mansion so soon, Chen Youliang happily replied. Although Ni Wenjun was displeased and could not lead an army by himself, he had no choice but to respond to the order.
Originally, everyone thought that this arrangement would be over, but who knows, Xu Shouhui continued: "Li Junshi, please take General Ming to attack Hanyang Mansion!" ā
"Wow"
Now everyone is exploding, Marshal Xu is a big deal this time, the land and water armies divided their troops to attack two important towns, especially Li Xingze's side, the Huangzhou Red Turban Army is only nearly 30,000 people, and they went to fight Hanyang Mansion.
Risks and benefits coexist, Hanyang is next to Jiangxia, if it is successfully captured, then the Huangzhou Red Turban Army will peep into the entire Huguang Province from the east.
Let Li Xingze fight the important Hanyang Mansion, and no one doubted it, after all, Li Junshi had great achievements, and the difficult bones naturally had to be let go.
After scanning everyone's expressions, Xu Shouhui secretly smiled, it was originally this kind of attack plan, and he couldn't imagine that he could secretly establish a naval army, so easily he could hide it from Ni Wenjun and Chen Youliang.
After the meeting broke up, Chen Youliang walked up to Li Xingze, hugged his fists and asked for instructions: "Strategist, I might as well give you some boats here!" ā
Li Xingze seemed to think about it for a long time, and wondered: "The boat is not necessary, I heard that your subordinates Ding Si and Xu Dong are very powerful, you might as well lend me to make it!" ā
If it weren't for these two people, Chen Youliang really couldn't remember who they were, and after recalling for a long time, he realized who Li Xingze was talking about.
Zhang Dingbian's two usually very wooden nerds, their reputation is not obvious, so I don't know how Li Xingze knew, although he was very confused, but Chen Youliang still agreed, and after leaving, he quietly pulled Zhang Dingbian to ask about the situation of the two people.
"Both of them?"
Knowing that Li Xingze borrowed Ding Si and Xu Dong, Zhang Dingbian laughed and said: "I don't know who Li Junshi listened to, those two are stupid, they can't remember it at all, they have to teach it many times!" ā
Seeing that Zhang Dingbian looked like he couldn't ask for it, Chen Youliang was also relieved, as long as he was not a good hand, he was worried that Li Junshi would not return the loan, if this was the case, it didn't matter if the two of them came back or not.
......
Seeing Ding Pulang and Xu Mingyuan in front of him, Li Xingze told him what he had just borrowed, and the two of them were overjoyed, they had long wanted to break away from Chen Youliang, but they didn't expect it to be so easy.
In order to be safe, Li Xingze temporarily arranged the two to be personal soldiers under Zhao Pusheng.
Ni Wenjun and Chen Youliang made preparations and set off first, after all, Chen Youliang had stationed some ships in Makouhu before, and it was more appropriate for them to prepare for a battle from there, but Li Xingze's side did not rush to dispatch, but prepared a lot of food, so he slowly led the people to set off.
......
Kuan Che Buhua has been living in Hanyang Mansion since Tangzhou left, in order to find an opportunity to find trouble with Xu Shouhui in Huangzhou, but he didn't expect that Timur, who went north, was arrested by Li Xingze.
Only then did he panic and send the Hanyang guard general Sang Jie to rescue, but fortunately, someone in the Ming Sect secretly helped, and rescued Timur from the prison in Yingzhou without much effort.
At this moment, both father and son are temporarily residing in Hanyang Mansion, Li Xingze got the news of the map, Kuan Che Buhua knew about it, and immediately sent a letter to Hunan Marshal He Sinan, this time he planned to unite his in-laws and go to Huangzhou and Li Xingze's troubles together.
Don't Timur just escaped from Yingzhou, did not avoid Li Xingze's dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, continued to find trouble for him, and secretly arrived at Hanyang Mansion, he did not show his face, but instead commanded Sangjie to prepare to defend the city.
The Yuan court's garrison in Hanyang Mansion had 10,000 people, which was considered a lot of people, and they learned the news that Li Xingze was coming to attack in a big way. Sang Jie has a general of ten thousand households, surnamed Zheng, about the city defense, Sang Jie didn't worry too much, and handed over all the power to Lao Zheng.
The Red Turban Army is only more than 30,000 people, how can it capture Hanyang Mansion, which has 10,000 people guarding the city with high walls and thick walls, although Sang Jie has never fought with Li Xingze, he still does not dare to be sloppy, and almost every day let Lao Zheng keep an eye on matters such as defending the city and repairing the city wall.
Li Xingze knew the situation in Hanyang Mansion, and he didn't talk nonsense, and after arriving, he directly asked the Red Turban Army to surround Hanyang and left quietly.
......
"Marshal Meng, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
Li Xingze was behind Zhang Junbao, and shouted at Meng Haima with a fist.
Meng Haima didn't expect Li Xingze to let him attack Jingmen at first, although the relationship between the two was good, but it involved the territory of the two religions.
When he got closer, he shouted impatiently: "If you need my Lao Meng to send troops to help, just say it, and send me a Jingmen Prefecture!" ā
"Hey, hey"
Li Xingze guessed that Meng Haima would definitely think of it, and smiled a little embarrassedly, it was also helpless to ask someone for help, so he had to take Jingmen as a return gift.
"You just send Jingmen to my brother, your Marshal Xu won't put you in prison, right?" Meng Haima pretended to be surprised and teased.
"Huh"
Li Xingze pursed his lips and said strangely: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Marshal Meng is actually joking!" ā
As soon as these words fell, the two looked at each other and laughed.
After laughing, Li Xingze said with a straight face: "Marshal Meng, I don't know how many troops can be drawn out here?" ā
When Li Xingze summoned him this time, Meng Haima also considered that if he wanted to gain a firm foothold in Xiangyang, he had to connect with Xu Shouhui's troops in order to deter the surrounding Yuan army, so he pulled out all the veterans who had seen blood.
Thinking of this, Meng Haima patted his chest and laughed loudly: "Li Junshi is generous, how can I, Meng Mou, be a stingy person, this time there are 30,000 Xiangyang veterans to drive away!" ā
Meng Haima didn't have the slightest twists and turns of those people in Mingjiao, he had assisted Li Xingze with more than 1,000 cavalry before, and this time he pulled out the soldiers who dared to fight, which shows that he is broad-minded, and the implication is that these people can be tossed at will.
"Good"
Li Xingze couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and said categorically: "Thank you Marshal Meng for your generosity!" ā
After discussion, Meng Haima led 10,000 Xiangyang Red Turban Army to Jingmen, and Li Xingze set up an ambush at Lexian Bridge.
Xiangyang is some distance from Jingmen, and Meng Haima is marching with great fanfare, and since the dispatch of troops, this news has reached Fu Zhuli's case.
Before the Jiangbei Province of southern Henan, was turned upside down by the Red Turban Army, unexpectedly, not long after, this Huguang Province was not peaceful, Li Xingze led the army to surround Hanyang, and Meng Haima followed up to fight Jingmen, and the guard Fu Zhuli also had a headache.
Since Xiangyang was taken by the Red Turban Army, Fu Zhuli has been on guard against Meng Haima, and this time the Red Turban Army came to attack, so he made all preparations.
Fu Zhuli gathered the rich families in the city, forcibly requisitioned many families, and barely scraped together 10,000 before leaving the city to meet the enemy.
With the same strength, Fu Zhuli is really not afraid of Meng Haima, and he has enough confidence to win the Red Turban Army in the field alone.
Meng Haima didn't talk nonsense, and when he saw that Fu Zhuli was in a good position, he took out the ring-length ear knife and shouted: "Rush!" ā
These Xiangyang Red Turban soldiers were all veterans who followed Meng Haima and fought bloody battles in Wollongong.
Fu Zhuli saw the Red Turban Army rushing over in a mess, and kept sneering in his heart, this kind of force dared to fight against him, and sent an order backwards, and the archers of the rear army began to draw their bows and arrows.
It was just a round of arrows, the Xiangyang Red Turban Army was caught off guard by the arrows in the sky, many people fell down from the arrows, Meng Haima saw it in his eyes, although he was distressed, but he still kept shouting: "Keep rushing!" ā
It wasn't until four or five rounds of arrows hit that the Xiangyang Red Turban Army lost almost a thousand people, but it also rushed to the front of the Yuan army, and Fu Zhuli ordered an attack, and the two sides began to engage in close combat.
