After the Battle of Xingyang, the situation in Henan became clear all of a sudden. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And defeated the king for his own use, and incorporated the thief army that captured him, except for the evil ones who were selected and beheaded for military merits, the rest were collected by Lu Xiangsheng's various departments about 10,000 people.

At this time, Wang Zhong, the chief soldier of Nanyang, also led the army from Henan Mansion to the north, and the Ming army entrenched here was as high as more than 40,000 people.

Among them, Lu Xiangsheng personally commanded the 8,000 Tianxiong Army, nearly 4,000 soldiers and horses in Guizhou, 15,000 soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp, 3,000 Sun Chuanting troops who were particularly independent, 3,000 Shizhu Battalions, 2,000 Qingshui Battalions, and as many as 4,500 local troops.

Also because of this great victory, Lu Xiangsheng was promoted to the rank of secretary of the Ministry of War, and he was hung as the prime minister of the five provinces to suppress bandits.

Sun Chuanting plus the imperial history of the left capital, the governor of Shanxi, Qin Yiming and the right governor, Xu Chengming and the governor of the capital, Ma Xianglin and the chief officer of the left association of the Beijing camp, Wang Jixun and the general army of Shanxi, etc., all the generals who participated in the war were rewarded.

But only the deputy chief soldiers of Changping Town, Zuo Liangyu and Tang Jiuzhou, who were stationed in Mi County south of Xingyang, were missing, these two are not people inside and outside now, because the rest of Wang Ziyong's troops fled east from their defense area, and there are about 5,000 people in this part of the people, and although they went to the west, although they were also killed and captured by Zuo Liangyu, more than 2,000 were captured, but the imperial court was not allowed to take credit.

However, Lu Xiangsheng, the prime minister of the five provinces stationed in Xingyang, and his immediate superior, Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shanxi, summoned him one after another, and he was completely panicked.

"If you knew today, why didn't you do it in the beginning!"

Zuo Liangyu is now in a dilemma, if he leads his troops to Xingyang, it will be a conspiracy, but there are fewer people to go, and he is afraid that Lu Xiangsheng's victory will be directly unfavorable to him, and if he doesn't go, it will be even more finished.

"Lord Commander, there is a military horse in the west that is heading north under the banner of the king, but passing by here, camping twenty miles away, I'm afraid that the imperial court is going to do something to us."

At the moment, the soldiers and horses of the entire Changping Town. They are all worried, extremely pessimistic about their future and status, and the slightest disturbance can cause them great uneasiness.

"What? Didn't Wang Zhong lead his troops north to Xingyang, why did he stay here? ”

Zuo Liangyu was stunned for a moment, his fat body stood up suddenly, and then slapped the seat heavily, "The imperial court is going to attack us!" ”

Yu Kyushu is also fearful. But he was not willing to sit still, but preemptively said, "The general army, Nanyang soldiers and horses, there are 8,000 people, and we are in Changping Town, but there are more than 2,000 people, and at this moment, half of the army is still a native soldier, I'm afraid they won't follow us." ”

"Don't talk about that yet. For now, let's think about how to get through the current crisis. ”

Zuo Liangyu really felt that the passing years were unfavorable, how could he be so good that the imperial court won a big victory?

"Chief soldier, what should we do?"

Zhao Zhu couldn't cover it either, and now he was also entangled in his heart, either go north to Xingyang to plead guilty to Lu Xiangsheng, or flee immediately, these two paths should be acted on as soon as possible, and they are still deadlocked. Isn't this waiting for death?

"You can't fight, even if you are a veteran of Changping Town, you won't easily follow us to rebel, but the general soldier is going to Xingyang. I'm afraid I'll take advantage of the opportunity to be harmed. ”

Tang Jiuzhou knew what happened to his people, but he just didn't want to face the facts, after all, if he was really appointed, he would not be far from death.

"Then run."

Zuo Liangyu didn't dare to try to pray for mercy easily, and the Lu madman went to the battlefield and didn't even care about his own life. Single-mindedly just to serve the court, this kind of person, can spare himself?

"Father, if we run away, isn't that a conspiracy? At that time, the imperial court will cut off our food, grass and military salaries, how many days can my father last? ”

Zuo Mengeng now sees it clearly and understands, even if Zuo Liangyu wants to run, where can he run, the world is so big, there is almost no place for him, unless he makes a decision now, immediately waves his troops to attack Wang Zhong, and then absorbs his Nanyang soldiers, so that he can have the capital to protect himself.

Otherwise, when the main force of the Ming army in Xingyang went south and surrounded them with Wang Zhong, there would be no way to live.

"Huh."

Zuo Liangyu didn't think about this road, but Nanyang soldiers and horses are so easy to fight? If he is sticky, he won't be able to run, to put it bluntly, he can be mixed like this now, relying on the elite soldiers of Changping Town, if he loses them, then Zuo Liangyu is nothing,

"That's it, that's it, I'll go to Xingyang to ask for guilt."

Since there is no way to live in struggle, and Zuo Liangyu doesn't want to be a rogue, then there is only one way to choose from it, after making up his mind, he handed over the military power to someone like Tang Jiuzhou who was tied together, and then took more than 20 personal guards with him to the north, after all, he brought too much, and in front of tens of thousands of Ming troops, there was no way to live.

"Father, if you go, I'm afraid it will be more auspicious."

When it came to the end, Zuo Mengeng regretted it a little, after all, the Nanyang soldiers led by Wang Zhong were monitoring near them, this is not a good sign, Xingyang's side, is there a decision to use force to solve the self-respecting decision of Changping Town?

If it really comes to this point, then Zuo Liangyu goes, won't he be a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?

"It's okay, I'm going to bring four carts of gold and silver, and those who have a good relationship with me in the Japanese army, such as Wang Jixun, are willing to agree to intercede with me, and I still understand the truth of being a father, and besides, with you in control of the soldiers and horses, Futai doesn't dare to kill me easily."

Even now, Zuo Liangyu is still full of confidence in his future, after all, the four thousand soldiers at hand are his reliance, he is confident that the imperial court will not kill him before he is relieved of his military power, since the imperial court has won the thief, and Shandong is about to quell the rebellion, then what else does he have to toss, at most he will be dismissed from office,

The silver corrupted over the years is enough for him to survive for a lifetime.

"Go back, I am determined to go here for my father, I will not worry about my life, just take care of the military horses, don't be careless, this time is over, just wait for the resignation and return to the field, and go to Jiangnan to live with my father."

"Yes."

Zuo Mengeng saw that he had made up his mind, so it was not good to continue to say more, but the haze in his heart had never dissipated, and it had been accumulated in his heart for a long time......

"Hmph, General Soldier Zuo is finally willing to come to Xingyang to see Benfu?"

Lu Xiangsheng sat on the main seat and didn't speak, Sun Chuanting first sneered and spoke, then put a thick stack of documents in front of Lu Xiangsheng's table, stood up and walked in front of Zuo Liangyu, and after watching for a while, he shouted bluntly, "Come on, take it with me!" ”

"Yes!"

The soldiers who were ambushed on both sides of the main tent in the morning suddenly poured out, surrounding Zuo Liangyu and the personal soldiers he brought, and the loaded firearms and sharp knife soldiers made Zuo Liangyu's face change instantly, and even his speech was a little unclear.

"Lord Futai, this~Why is this~!"

"Why? Wouldn't it be that An dared not to ask about his own heart, and he was ordered by the Holy Son of Heaven to arrest the ungrateful people who supported the army and respected themselves and did not want to serve the court, and took it with me left and right. ”

Lu Xiangsheng originally wanted to give Zuo Liangyu a chance, the best thing was to make him change his mind, but seeing that Sun Chuanting had a backlog of grievances and made the first move, he could only come out and clean up the mess.

"Those who dare to resist will be killed on the spot~!"

Under the strict orders of the two commanders, these outflanked guards were all merciless, but Zuo Liangyu also knew that he was in a desperate situation, so he gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand to block the sword in front of him, and roared, "I am not guilty, I am the deputy chief soldier of Changping Town, who dares to take me." ”

At this time, he also regretted it, but when he was in a desperate situation, Lu Xiangsheng Sun Chuanting was also a person, An Neng asked him to go out of the sky, so all the sergeants rushed up and threw him to the ground.

"Ah~ah~!"

And the guards he brought behind him were all dead soldiers, seeing that Zuo Liangyu had encountered an accident, where was he willing to follow, so they each stretched out their hands and drew their knives, but they were added to the knives by the soldiers who had long been on guard, these people were not Zuo Liangyu's high status, and if they were killed, they would die in vain.

So there were as many as seven people who were killed on the spot, and the rest were all held and tied up, Zuo Liangyu was pressed to the ground, seeing that the general trend had gone, he regretted it in his heart, and the secret path was completely planted today.

"Come on~ press this great rebel into the back camp to be strictly guarded, order Wang Zongbing, immediately lead the army into the Changping Town barracks, and escort all the generals of the left thief and the others for questioning!"

Since it has already been struck, it is inevitable to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, everyone understands this truth, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting will never make such a low-level mistake.

"Come on~ march with drums, surround the Changping camp on all sides, and don't let one go."

Wang Zhong, the chief soldier of Nanyang, who was in the west of Mi County, saw that there were three piles of agreed beacon smoke in the north, and knew that Zuo Liangyu had been captured, so he immediately ordered the whole army to pull out the camp to the east, and had already entered Mi County, and the stone pillar battalion in Changping Town was also ordered to move west, one left and one right, to firmly trap the soldiers and horses of Changping Town.

"Lord Commander, it's terrible, the imperial army is surrounding, and with artillery, they have arrived at the camp gate, and I ask the general soldiers to make a decision quickly."

"It's over~ It's over!"

After Zuo Liangyu went north to Xingyang, the army was seated by Tang Jiuzhou, but for whether to leave or stay, the criticism in the army was too big, according to his meaning, he should immediately choose to go east or west, to avoid the pressure of the imperial army, but Zuo Mengeng and Zhao Zhu disagreed, because only the soldiers and horses of Changping Town were still near Xingyang, and the imperial court would not choose to poison Zuo Liangyu.

If the army ran away, wouldn't it mean that they were telling the court that they had a counter-intention?

"Let's lead the troops out, I'm going to Xingyang to save my father."

When Zuo Mengeng reached a critical moment, he still refused to admit defeat easily, but there were few responders in the army, because they were also soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

"You guys~"

"Major General, let's go quickly, I am willing to take my own soldiers to escort the young general to withdraw from the trail."

Zhao Zhu sighed secretly, looking at these former colleagues in the army, he didn't dare to stimulate them too much, so he forcibly took Zuo Mengeng and fled by the trail, and Tang Jiuzhou had the intention to leave, but he was stared at by the generals, and he really couldn't get out......
