Chapter 138: Yanmen County (I)
"Ge Shuai, just now my subordinates found that Dugu Zilong went to a small thatched hut about thirty miles northwest of Dingzhou City, and stayed in it for a long time, maybe ......"
"Xiu Li, Dugu Zilong's matter, don't interfere anymore, draw a map of the location of the small hut, I will deal with it, but now there is a more important thing for you to do!"
"Please ask Ge Shuai to order, his subordinates will go to the soup and fight the fire, and they will not give up!"
"Well, okay, you go to Zuoren City, receive all the rights of Yuan Hongye, and then the marshal will issue a document to make up a letter of appointment for you, and in the future, Zuoren City will be guarded by you, are you willing?"
"Ge Shuai, but Yuan Hongye is not negligent, if he does this, will it affect ......?"
"You don't have to care about these, Xiuli, you have to remember, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, especially in troubled times, this handsome has his own intentions, you just do it according to my will!"
"Yes!"
……
It turned out that the one who followed Zilong out of the city all the way was Ge Rong's subordinate Xian Yu Xiuli, who had followed Ge Rong for a long time, but he had not held any military position, in fact, he was Ge Rong's henchman.
However, Ge Rongqi, everyone knows, is too suspicious and has no great ambitions, so the one who really becomes his confidant may not be the most talented, but probably the most knowledgeable to observe words and colors.
Xian Yu Xiuli responded to Ge Rong's errand, quit Ge Rong's study, looked up and saw that it was getting late, but he was not in a hurry to go home, and slowly walked out of the True Palace.
After leaving the main gate, he turned his head to look at the magnificent True Palace in front of him, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were completely deferential, but more greedy and profound.
For more than a month, Ge Rong worked hard to manage Dingzhou City, and with the help of Zilong, the situation of Dingzhou City was ten rooms and nine empty, and there was a slight turnaround.
In terms of Zuoren City, Ge Rong had no choice but to appoint Yuan Hongye as a temporary town general, and Yuan Hongye heard that Ge Rong was doing a lot of things in Dingzhou City, and he was not idle.
Although Zuorencheng is a small city, it can be regarded as a birthplace of the peasant uprising in the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and naturally has its special strategic significance.
After the painstaking management of the six Han Baling and Ge Rong, it has long been famous in the north, even if Ge Rong now moves the main force to Dingzhou City, it cannot change its long-standing reputation.
So Yuan Hongye took advantage of Ge Rong's lack of time to take care of him, secretly developed his strength, recruited troops, and waited for an opportunity, but when the opportunity finally came, he found that his current strength was far from enough to support his purpose.
But at this time, Xian Yu Xiuli held Ge Rong's handwritten letter, two or three sentences, and deprived him of the position of the lord of a city.
At this time, it was the beginning of the year, Gao Ao Cao Shuai 100,000 people, with Zilong as the supervising army, starting from Dingzhou, going down to Lingqiu County, breaking Hengzhou City, all the way to occupy the camp and pull out the village, the good news was frequent, so that Ge Rongle was unsupportable.
However, at this moment, he received one news after another that he didn't want to hear.
"Yu Ge Shuai, Gao Aocao, the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, came to report, Du Luo Zhou expelled Li Chong and He Basheng from Rouxuan Town, and now between Liudao and Youyan, the six towns have been taken by Wei Ting, ask Ge Shuai what to do?"
"Report, Ge Shuai, Er Zhu Rongbu has been silent for a long time, and there has been an abnormal movement recently, and it is moving towards Yanmen County, Zilong Supervisor Jun suggested that Ge Shuai prepare early."
"Report, Yu Ge Shuai, General Xian Xiuli mobilized 20,000 soldiers to defend the city of Zuoren, and sent troops to Zhongshan City."
The three pieces of news in a row made Ge Rong have an ominous premonition, and his heart was like numbness, and what worried him the most was not Zilong and Wei Kegu, but Xian Yu Xiuli, who had always thought that he was the henchman among his henchmen.
After capturing Dingzhou City, Ge Rong focused on the development of Dingzhou, and Zuoren City only left 20,000 soldiers and horses.
He's gone, who will guard the Left Man City? And how many generals?
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, Ge Rong hurriedly put down what Zilong had reported, and sent someone to Zuoren City to investigate.
However, the heralds sent out did not hear from them, but two spies returned, also scarred and dying.
When he got the news, Ge Rong's heart trembled, and he subconsciously ordered the herald to go to Huanzhou and ordered Gao Aocao to retreat and return to Dingzhou City.
At this time, in the Northern Expeditionary Army of Ge Rong's Army, the atmosphere was also solemn, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Gao Aocao did not say a word, Wei Kegu looked a little worried, but Zilong looked at the map in front of the three of them, stunned.
Suddenly, Zilong waved his knife and pointed at a small red dot on the map, and his eyes flashed.
"Although Du Luo Zhou is like a lost dog now, he will not have much impact on our department for the time being, and he still has no time to take care of himself, let alone guard against our attacks.
Li Chongbu pursued Du Luo Zhou hard, but He Batsheng rested on the spot, and there were signs of moving in the direction of Huanzhou, if my expectation was correct, his target was not yet us. ”
Wei Kegu was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help asking: "If it weren't for us, Huanzhou and Shuozhou were both under the control of Wei Ting, who else could he target?" ”
Although Gao Aocao had the same doubts, his mind was simpler.
"What's the use of saying so much? Now that Li Chongzheng is attacking Du Luo Zhou, it is better for us to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, wait for them to come up with a result, and then reap the benefits of the fishermen, isn't it better? ”
As soon as he said this, Wei Kegu and Zilong cast contemptuous glances one after another, which made Gao Aocao's old face blush, and muttered: "Do you still want to join the chaotic war?" So who do we help? Wei Ting or Du Luo Zhou? ”
Zilong lifted his forehead, which was full of sweat, shook it and said: "Let's talk about the supply of grain and grass first, whether it can support it until we see the result of the two tigers fighting, just talking about the movements of Er Zhurong and He Batsheng, it is obvious that they are heading towards Yanmen County."
A small Yanmen County, as for the crowd, is it all moving? Therefore, their purpose, in my opinion, is definitely Wei Ting's Yanzhou, and Yanmen County is the northern gate of Weizhou, as long as they occupy this place, they can be regarded as choking the connection between Wei Ting's Li Chongbu and Xue Tong, the assassin of Weizhou.
The west can guard against the remnants of the true king, the north can command the six towns, the south can clamp down and merge the state, and the east can threaten our Dingzhou, which is definitely the center of a chaotic situation. ”
Gao Aocao listened a little confused, in his opinion, this is in the position pointed by the husband, is it because he thinks he has been silent for too long, so he wants to come to the focus of everyone and be the target of the public?
Looking at Gao Aocao's chaotic eyes, Zilong was already speechless to be incomparable, but fortunately, Wei Kegu still understood.
"Don't be handsome, dare to ask where Er Zhurong is from? What is it known for today? ”
Gao Aocao is not handsome, he is really tireless in asking, and after listening to Wei Kegu's words, he only said three words - I don't know. (To be continued.) )
