The scene of 10,000 horses galloping, is not common on the Qilu Plain, the dust raised by the dry weather has boosted its majesty, looking at it from afar, such as the roar of thunder, the flag is waving, the scene of the horse soaring like a dragon is more bold. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If it weren't for the deep walls of the Texas moats, which offset the advantage of the horse thieves, most of the troops in Texas twice as many as the horse thieves were foot soldiers, and they could not fight against it at all. As soon as the two armies clashed, they would be cut in half like cutting melons and vegetables.

The military horses of the imperial court are mostly used to supply the continuous defense line of the nine sides and the camp of the Beijing Division, a large number of troops in these two places have consumed too much food and salary of the imperial court, and the inland guards cannot afford enough military horses, and the world does not need to arrange a large number of cavalry in the inland guards, so in the guards, it has always been a relatively luxurious equipment, even if it is a military town like Dezhou Wei, the cavalry is only more than 2,000 people.

The horn of the warning at the head of the city sounded a short and urgent whining, and the low drums like light thunder also sounded suddenly, and the officers and men began to hurry up to the top of the city. Rolling wood, lime and oil, pushing, moving, carrying, quickly moving to the battlements. The artillery jacket on the cannon was also torn off, and the black and shiny barrel was aimed at the city.

The artillery here is still the traditional thunderbolt artillery, which is much worse than the new artillery used by the Jiangnan naval division, but it is more powerful.

It is a pity that the imperial court has successively used troops and ceremonies, coupled with the mutual markets in the north and the trade in the south of the Yangtze River, shipbuilding and army building, building pastures in Liaodong, buying foals, and relocating immigrants, and the financial constraints have been extremely tight.

The cannon roared, the ground trembled, and the shells exploded in the enemy formation like a dark cloud, and suddenly the people turned on their backs, and the horses that had not been trained in artillery fire at the place of the explosion neighed, and the formation became chaotic.

However, in the face of the cavalry brigade that swept in like a tide on the Great Plains, this very powerful cannon was just a wave rolled up on the tip of the tide, and it was easily wiped out, and the panicked war horses were in the right direction of the entire brigade. Although he was flustered, he did not scatter and run, coupled with the high level of horse control of the knights, he quickly readjusted to the offensive rhythm of the whole army.

There was a moat under the city, and the horse moats of the military fortress were dug deep and wide, so that the horse thieves were not afraid to attack the city with only one round of charge, and the soldiers were preparing for the melee city defense under the orders of the generals at all levels. Gunners and crossbowmen used the wall of battlements as a cover to shoot soul-stinging arrows of death at the overwhelming Ringing Horse Thieves.

The terrain here is open, with the canal on the left, the city of Texas on the opposite, and the other two sides are composed of wasteland, woods, post roads, etc., and it is easy to move forward and backward and turn to escape. The terrain was open and easy for the besiegers to manipulate, and naturally it was easy for the defenders at the head of the city to shoot, with little need to aim, and the eight cannons continued to roar, constantly reaping human lives, and the outlaws howled closer and closer.

There are a total of thirty-two cannons in Texas City, and there are eight cannons in each of the four city gates, try to shoot flower bullets, and the lethality is amazing, but the artillery loading is time-consuming and laborious, and the fast horse rushes over the lightning, and it has been attacked to the near place in an instant, and when it is attacked to the near place, there are many dead corners on the wall, and the range that the artillery can deter is limited, and the main thing at this time is the effect of the bow and crossbow.

Under the wall, the dust was misty, covering the sky and the sun, and the horse thieves all covered their faces with red scarves, and began to ride away, constantly firing bows and arrows at the head of the city, suppressing the firepower of the city head, and covering the follow-up troops.

Riding and shooting, this is the best game of the Tartars outside the Guan, the key is to ride high, otherwise it is not that you can't shoot, but an arrow is shot, Hongfei is in the dark, and you don't know where to fly. Or the writhing and twisting of the horse, the arrow is weak, and no one is hurt.

There are many people in the elite of the horse thieves who have this kind of high riding and archery skills, because the horse family has horses, many horse thieves have climbed up and down on horseback since childhood, and it is naturally not difficult for some people with high equestrian skills, and it seems that there are about 15 to 2,000 people in such fine horses.

They rode and roamed, constantly arrowing, and were equal to the defenders of the city. At this time, the artillery really became a cannon to fight mosquitoes, and it was completely useless for these horse thieves who were scattered and shooting.

The banner stopped at the ruined wall in the distance, and some figures appeared on the embankment, and Liu Liu was obviously stationed there to command the whole army. There is a swamp of reed duckweed, and there are more than two miles away from the canal, and the distance is about the same as here, so you can observe the overall situation, and the command and dispatch are also safe and convenient.

Yang Ling was lying on the arrow stack and just saw this, and was violently pulled back by a person, who grabbed it too tightly and buckled his arm painfully. Yang Ling turned his head to look, only to see Luo Shiquan roaring with a sweaty face: "My God, why are you still here quickly, get out of danger quickly."

It turned out that as soon as the horse arrived, Luo Shiquan was in a hurry, and immediately threw away the two personal soldiers, ran up to the city tower to personally command, and after he finished dispatching and issued a series of combat orders, he remembered that he forgot a big man. He turned his head to see that the sharp arrows of the horse thieves shot up to the city, and the arrows were swishing in the air, but Wei Guogong was watching the enemy with the arrow stack in his hand, and this fright was not trivial, and he immediately ran over again.

Although Luo Shiquan's injury did not hurt his muscles and bones, after all, his flesh and skin were suffering, so he rushed to the city tower to command that he had torn the wound, and then he ran over again, even in pain and fear, so he was sweating.

Yang Ling smiled lightly and said, "Why should General Luo worry? The southern barbarians and the northern captives, the eastern and western empires, all the princes of the country have seen it, and the battle of the horse thieves may not be better than them, so why be afraid? ”

As he was talking, a wolf's tooth arrow swept away, and it was shooting from the mouth of the battlement, and Wu Han's shoulder next to him moved slightly, and with a sound, the arrow was knocked away, only to see that half of the autumn water in Wu Han's hand was slowly entering the sheath, and the speed of the sword was unbelievable. Luo Shiquan was startled, but Yang Ling looked calm, and his eyelids didn't blink.

Luo Shiquan is not as comfortable as Yang Ling, Yang Ling is the governor of Qincha, the governor of Shandong, responsible for the entire defense area to suppress bandits, formulate a strategy to suppress bandits, and dispatch troops and horses from all walks of life. It is true that he is now in Texas, but he is not the general in charge of the defense of Texas, and if he is injured at the head of the city, he will not escape the responsibility of poor defense.

This place is close to Beijing, well-informed in all directions, how much the emperor loves and trusts this Wei Guogong today, he has heard a lot of gossip, and the emperor can climb the wall in a woman's costume, except for the one in front of him.

Yang Ling saw that this Commander Luo was really anxious, and saw that the soldiers at the head of the city were nervous and busy, although under the constant urging of the officials, they were even more nervous, and their movements were a little stiff and rusty. It seems that not only is there a lack of exercise in normal times, but also that he is here, which makes them even more nervous, so he smiled slightly and said: The general can command with peace of mind, and the prince of his country will go to the city tower to watch the battle."

Luo Shiquan was overjoyed, hurriedly summoned a few personal soldiers, and accompanied Yang Ling to the city tower. The Ringing Horse Thieves don't have sharp long-range siege weapons, so it should be much safer to stay in the tower.

Song Xiaoai was a little surprised to see Yang Ling so obedient. In fact, Yang Ling also wanted to stand here to make a specific and intuitive observation and understanding of the combat methods of the Xiangma Thieves, but in that case, Luo Shiquan must have no intention of commanding, and focused all his attention on him. Luo Shiquan is the commander of the whole army, and Yang Ling does not want to overstep his responsibilities and personally command the offensive and defensive battles in Texas, so he can't make trouble for Commander Luo.

Moreover, the defenders inside the city were twice as strong as those outside the city, despite the enemy's advantage in horses. But it is of little use in the battle, and the defenders occupy the advantage of geography and weapons, and they are completely on the defensive, if they still need to come forward in person, then this Luo Shiquan is also a dou who can't be supported, and he can't be used at all.

In Yang Ling's next military action, Luo Shiquan is a very important chess piece, and he needs to be in charge. Yang Ling deliberately rectified the Texas defenders, emphasized military orders and military discipline, and established Luo Shiquan's absolute authority in front of the Texas defenders, precisely for this reason. Now that the army has just been deeply touched, he will perfectly command a blocking battle, which will further establish his position, and Yang Ling will inevitably steal his limelight if he does not retreat into the background.

Seeing Yang Ling retreating into the city tower, Luo Shiquan's spirits were greatly lifted, and he immediately shouted: "Suppress the bow and crossbow, try to kill and injure, guard their positions, and don't panic." As he spoke, he drew his knife and took refuge beside the battlements of the dish wall, intently observing the movements of the horse thieves.

In military combat, bows and crossbows come first. The bow shoots fast, but it is difficult to master, and the crossbow is fired with a machine, and it is familiar with the evening of learning, and the strength is far away, but it is difficult to reload, and the shooting is slow, especially not suitable for horse fighting, but it is much more convenient to defend the city.

The ratio of the configuration of the crossbow and the bow in Texas City is six or four points, at this time, the crossbow arrows are together, the bow of the two stones can penetrate the armor into the body within two hundred steps, and the crossbow has a longer range, only to listen to the noisy of the bowstring, the bow and crossbow are together, and countless three-edged wolf teeth are whistling and shooting out.

A galloping horse was shot by an arrow and fell from its mount. The other didn't even say a word, and a crossbow shot straight into the head, causing him to fall upside down and hang over his horse.

Hand Talk Edition ~ Novel Edition ~ Novel, all in

Hundreds of sharp arrows and wolf teeth broke through the air, like a shower of rain, killing and wounding more than 200 people in an instant, the war horses that lost the control of the warriors ran in all directions, and the charging formation suddenly collapsed, and there was no more strict order before. The offensive of the Xiangma cavalry was frustrated, and they began to move left and right, and at the same time the arrows were counter-suppressed, and the arrows rained down, and although the defenders at the head of the city had vertical shields, many people were still injured by arrows.

The first step of both sides' attack and defense is to suppress from a distance, shoot the opponent as much as possible, and look at the appearance of the horse thieves, obviously there is still some fear, of course they will not want to attack the city with flesh and blood without any support. The Ringing Horse Thief raised his shield, wooden shield, iron shield, and homemade rattan shield, all sorts of things, although they could not resist the crossbow, but they could resist the bow and arrow.

In the city tower, Wu Han and Song Xiaoai stood behind Yang Ling on the left and right, Yang Ling was wearing a green shirt, sitting on a high-backed * chair, looking at the window with Erlang's legs crossed, with a leisurely expression, gently tapping the beat on his knees, clearing his throat and singing: "I am watching the mountain scenery in the city tower, and I can hear the chaos outside the city gate." The banner was flipped in the air, but it turned out to be Liu Liulai's soldiers. ”

Song Xiaoai snorted, pursed her lips and said, "What kind of song did the adults sing?" It's so laid-back."

Yang Ling laughed and said: "There is a lack of a goose feather fan, otherwise it will have a good color and fragrance." ”

Fragrance? Song Xiaoai was surprised.

The officers and soldiers who were nervously standing around saw that this grandfather of the country was talking and laughing freely, and they didn't care about the more than 10,000 iron horsemen under the city, and they couldn't help but secretly admire, and their originally slightly nervous mood calmed down.

Liu Liu's army obviously rushed towards Dezhou City suddenly, because there were now some people pushing horse-drawn carts in the rear, including RVs and wooden frames, which should be some siege equipment. Yang Ling smiled with relief: "I see, I'll just say, no matter how stupid Liu Liu is, he won't use people to pile it up, 30,000 horses can't fill the trenches in Dezhou City."

Women are emotional animals, Song Xiaoai is a blind worship of Yang Ling, there are about 10,000 people in the city, she thinks that the Lord Guogong must have a way to restrain it, but if there are a million people in the city, seeing Yang Ling so leisurely, she will still think that Yang Ling must have a way, thick branches and leaves, as good as Xiaoai.

Wu Han was a little nervous, he looked at the city slowly scattering, luring the firepower of the city, and at the same time the arrow covered the approaching siege equipment in the rear of the ringing horse thief said: "Guogong, Liu Liu stopped attacking for a few days, although he can't figure out our reality and reality, and at the same time he must be preparing for the siege, since he dares to come, I am afraid that he has a certain certainty, do you want to suggest that General Luo transfer some men and horses from the other three cities?" ”

Some of the generals and soldiers of the local defenders in the city tower suddenly held their breath and listened to Yang Ling's words. Yang Ling shook his head and smiled: "Grasp? How sure could he be? He had to come, otherwise he would have to give up the plan of establishing himself in Shandong and strangling the Beijing Division in the north, hunting in the south of the Yangtze River, and staying away from the Beijing Division, although he plunged headlong into the prosperous world, but it was more difficult to gain a foothold there."

He paused, and then said, "Dezhou City, Liu Liu must not be able to take it." The loser who defends the city is nothing more than the enemy is strong and I am weak; The city is large and few people; There is little food and many people; The baggage is accumulated outside; The soldiers did not obey orders. In addition, the water outside is high and the city is low, the soil veins are sparse and the pond is shallow, the guard is not sufficient, the salary is not supplied, and although there is a high city, it must be abandoned.

The city of Texas is strong and strong, with deep trenches and thick walls, and an army of 60,000 is enough to defend the city. And there is an abundance of grain and grass, and the waterways are unimpeded, and the punishment is severe, and the law is clear. There is no tenfold enemy, and it is impossible to attack at all! ”

As if to confirm Yang Ling's words, the sharp arrows like a shower, as well as the roaring cannons, completely suppressed the terrifying Liu Liu's army when they had just pounced, and there were not many horse thieves in front of them who dared to challenge, but the follow-up cars had gradually pushed over.

The officers and men knew every move of the horse thieves in the city and could respond quickly, but there were no high mountains nearby, and because of the cannons of the officers and soldiers, the horse thieves did not dare to build lookout tools such as nest cars, so they suffered a great loss in understanding the situation of the enemy and us. How the defenders in the city are deployed, adjusted, and how their firepower is deployed, they can only estimate how many points they have when the fight breaks out outside the city, but what they do outside the city, the city can understand for the first time.

Hand-typed, providing the latest hand-typed version of the novel to read

At this moment, the actions of the horse thieves were seen through by the officers and soldiers at a glance. "Bed crossbow! It was the bed crossbows who actually got the bed crossbow, and I blew it off! Luo Shiquan's voice came from afar.

The bed crossbow is a large crossbow mounted on a wooden frame that pierces the human body, which can be called the overlord of the crossbow. During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song army used a bed crossbow to shoot the Mongol Khan Meng Ke, which led to the battle for the throne between Kublai Khan and Ali Buge, and the Southern Song Dynasty was able to continue for more than ten years. [Heaven's Kiss Hand-hitting]

The arrow shot by the bed crossbow is made of wood as a rod, the head of the iron spear is used as the arrowhead, and the tail wing is made of the iron sheet feather, known as "one gun and three sword arrows", in fact, it is a short spear with a feather, to defend the city, the attacker's chariot, the ladder, the wooden curtain, the giant shield, etc., are all broken, and the siege is not neat, if it is a wooden village of the earth city, it is devastated.

At that time, this was considered a heavy siege weapon, so it was no wonder that Commander Luo was nervous. The defenders at the head of the city nervously moved their cannons, estimating the location of their targets. Although the bed crossbow is a heavy weapon, it is only compared to the bow and crossbow used by the soldier, and it is easy to move on a simple flatbed cart, and it is not easy for heavy artillery to aim at its position.

Isn't it just a bed crossbow? Who doesn't, you have me, you have all of them, wow!

Qiao Sihai, who was stationed in Dezhou City, saw that the cannon could not catch the bed crossbow cart pulled by the donkey and horse of the horse thief, and without waiting for Luo Shiquan's order, he roared in a full Shandong accent and let people push the bed crossbow guarding the city to the middle of the city, preparing to have a bed crossbow to fight the bed crossbow.

A shock wave that quickly grinded the air passed through the ears of the people, and the high-pitched sound for a moment overwhelmed the neighing of the horses and the stimulation of the ear drums of the people, like a fighter plane passing overhead.

Yang Ling only felt a strange itch in his ears, and after a while, he heard Qiao Sihai's voice coming from the city: "They are shooting 'stepping arrows', concentrating on rolling wood and stones, fire oil and lime, they are going to forcibly attack the city."

Yang Ling understood as soon as he heard the 'stepping arrow', although he had never seen the 'stepping arrow' in the Datong border army, he had heard people talk about it in detail. The so-called "stepping arrow" is to use bed crossbows to nail short spears in rows to the city wall for the siegers to climb the city, like a mobile ladder. Commander Luo leaned on the city wall and looked around, only to see five short spears inserted straight into the cracks in the wall, although the spears were short, the tail was still trembling sharply, and there was a buzzing sound like a swarm passing by.

He only glanced at it, then hurriedly retracted his head, and the soldiers next to him were busy covering with vertical shields, and sure enough, someone in Liu Liu's army saw the gap and inserted a needle, and with a few tuks, a row of cold arrows fell on the shield.

Don't think that the spear of the blue brick wall can't be shot in, not to mention that the quality of the brick itself is good, and the clay and rammed earth are more said when building.

In the past, the wealthy Shen Wansan helped Taizu build Nanjing, and after the two of them each ordered someone to build a section of the city wall, Zhu Yuanzhang went to inspect it, and ordered the soldiers to smash the city wall with a hammer, and the city wall that he was responsible for building was broken, and Shen Wansan's heavy gold hired people and personally supervised the construction of the city wall without being damaged by three hammers, and Zhu Yuanzhang was on fire. The rebuilding of the disaster order is like this in the capital, which can be seen elsewhere.

Of course, this kind of breaking is for the brick surface, will not cause the city wall to collapse, the first brick is a very huge piece, plus the city wall is very thick, more than ten zhang wide, just pile there with ten oxen can not knock down, not to mention there is heavy rammed earth, more solid.

It's just that the wall is really not how hard it is, and the row of short spears is half a foot deep, and it is already as solid as a rock, and it is only necessary to shoot at a certain slope towards the city wall in rows, as if a staircase was built on the city wall, and the horse thief stood sideways under the wall, and ran up.

Luo Shiquan lifted his hat and sneered: "Whimsical! How can this ruler allow you thieves to succeed? Come on, tie up the mud and throw the spears and break them! ”

There are wood, mud and bricks piled up in the city wall, among which the bricks are the heaviest and suitable for smashing. More than a dozen bricks made by burning bricks were quickly tied into a bundle, and the soldiers rushed up, shouting trumpets to lift the heavy bricks up the city wall, and then rolled them down, so that even if they could not break all the spears at once or fall off, it would be almost the same again.

Seeing this, the horses outside the city immediately concentrated their shots here, and the officers and soldiers who could not dodge were immediately shot down, and the officers and soldiers at the head of the city were also immediately returned to color, and the two sides in order to create siege conditions and destroy siege conditions, countless lives were taken away by the rain of arrows very cheaply.

Yang Ling sat at the head of the city not to watch the scenery, the kind of calm and calm was only for the local defenders to see, he was talking and laughing, and his eyes had been nervously observing the advance and retreat of the horses outside the city and the offensive and defensive characteristics, and he paid more attention to Luo Shiquan.

See how he commands, dispatches, and co-ordinates, and observes his judgment, mobility, and soldiers' combat ability, obedience, military morale, and quality of coordinated operations.

He is watching the battle, not only watching the enemy, but also watching himself, he has just arrived in Texas, and he has not yet known himself and the enemy. The battlefield is the most difficult time to hide his strengths and weaknesses, so it is also the most conducive for him to understand everything he wants to know as soon as possible, and so far, he is very satisfied with Luo Shiquan.

Luo Shiquan is not the fierce god of Jing Foer, who intimidates the enemy's heart as soon as he goes out of battle, and inspires the soldiers to play with him, nor is he the kind of veteran who is suitable for attack and defense, and has rich experience in battle formations, he is more like a commander in the modern sense, the scheduling arrangement is impermeable, the mind is very meticulous, and many details are very thoughtful.

Famous generals also have their own strengths, some are good at attacking, some are good at defending, some are good at cooperating, some are good at odd battles, Luo Shiquan is obviously good at defending, Yang Ling is very satisfied with this. With this person guarding Texas, as long as the whole army is in unison, so that he can dispatch handily and command like an arm, then Texas can be safeguarded. Now, I can finally start the overall plan to suppress bandits in Shandong with confidence.

**********************

When this failed, Liu Liu's men began to change their siege methods, and he had dozens of arrows at a time on the crossbow strings of the bed. When it comes out, it is like a storm, the strong arrows are off the string, and they are flying over, and the lethality is amazing, and the arrows of the hundred tigers of the official army are similar to the same thing.

With the tremendous lethality of the bed crossbow and the constant suppression of the riders' arrows, a dozen waddling siege ladders moved towards the left wall. Siege ladders are rarely dispersed, so it is easy to be broken by the defenders, once used, at least more than ten ladders are concentrated in one place, attacking, defending, constantly shooting at each other's arrows, completely filling up with human lives, although the casualties paid by the besieging side are larger, but this is the fastest way to siege the city.

With the dispatch of Commander Luo, General Qiao Shen led people to rush towards the direction of the cloud ladder siege. At the same time, more than a dozen moats and toad carts used to cross the moat were driven towards the right city wall.

The toad cart was on top of the front, similar to the siege chariot used by the Tatars to attack the Chicken Song. It also covered it with raw cow skins to shield it from the rain of arrows, and the horse thieves hid underneath, holding flying hooks, ready to cross the trench and force their way up. The head of the city was immediately blocked by firearms and rockets, and at the same time the officers and soldiers gathered here and prepared for battle.

Due to the deterrence of eight cannons at the main entrance, the horse thieves only attacked from both sides, and rarely challenged head-on. It wasn't until they erected a few simple two-person small stone throwers from afar, and threw clumps of poisonous incendiary materials onto the city, stirring up a cloud of smoke at the head of the city, that a crashing car with an eaves tower rushed over with a loud cry under the push and support of the horse thieves, and someone else carried the moat bridge and rushed ahead.

"Boom~~", the cannon spat out tongues of fire again, eight cannons fired two rounds, several stone throwers in the distance were blown to pieces, and the people who grabbed the moat bridge under the city were killed by the rain of arrows. The rest of the men took refuge under the moat to avoid the rain of arrows, and the bridge was erected on the moat, and the huge wooden tips of the ramming carts were aimed at the city gates, and the outlaws babbled and screamed desperately.

In their hearts, the only reliance of the officers and soldiers is the deep ditch of the high city, and as long as the city gate is opened, the officers and soldiers will become rabbits with all their courage and let them slaughter. Texas is a big city, there are rich gentry in it, some are gold and silver and beautiful women, and Liu Dashuai said that if you defeat Texas, you will have a chance to win the world, and each of them will have the opportunity to be a general, anyway, it is a cheap life, why not fight him?

The horse thieves roared, and the giant tree slammed against the city gate again, and the heavy bombardment sound made even the city seem to feel it. One hundred households inserted back the waist knife and shouted: "Iron strikes wood, dovetail torch prepares".

There are two iron striking wood on the left and right of the city head, the wooden body is iron, the iron is composed of six iron blades, each iron blade is more than a foot long, just like six big wolf tooth iron nails, the iron hitting wood was thrown down by the officers and soldiers, and smashed into the roof of the shed of the city car, and the sharp and thick iron nails pierced the roof of the shed, followed by another one, smashed on the top of the first iron hitting wood, the torn wooden hole, and the wooden crack was bigger.

Then the dovetail torch was thrown down, the oil was splashed down, and the roof of the car that hit the city was a flame, even the oil seeped under the car and caught fire, and it could no longer play a shielding role, and the robbers who were responsible for hitting the city gate dropped the city car and ran back desperately, despite the continuous arrow cover of their own men and horses, and the sharp arrows that the officers and soldiers at the head of the city condescended to chase and fired, they still nailed these robbers who dreamed of being generals to the ground one by one.

Yang Ling stood on the tower of the city and couldn't help but feel deeply touched when he saw this kind of self-made siege weapons that looked plausible but had almost no inferior effect compared with the regular offensive and defensive weapons in the army.

He sighed and said to Wu Han: "I once heard someone say: 'Even if a person who can commit a crime is not a genius, there is no mediocre talent, in some aspects, they must be much better than ordinary people'. ”

It was the first time for Song Xiaoai to see so many kinds of siege equipment, staring at a pair of beautiful big eyes, and as soon as she heard Yang Ling's words, she immediately rushed to agree and said: What people say is that there are many good carpenters among the horse thieves."

**********************

"Zhao Sui came to Shanxi, and Xu Tai and Jiang Bin also chased after him. Xu Tai has passed down an edict from the imperial court, and the local military and political officials in Shanxi are responsible for their respective territories, and they can refuse thieves outside. It is forbidden to lead troops across borders to chase after them, lest they be restrained by traitors and made to take advantage of the weakness."

The green-robed man sat opposite Zhang Yin and said slowly, his current public identity is a senator in Zhang Yin's army, named Jiang Nanyan. In fact, he is indeed Zhang Yin, whose real identity is the staff officer of the Maitreya Sect leader Li Fuda, and he is the ** teacher of the Maitreya Sect.

Li Fuda laughed and said: "Don't care about him, as long as you don't come to Taiyuan, you have to make trouble with Zhao Maniac, Xu Tai has this order, which is exactly what I want." There is Taihang in the east of Shanxi, there is Luliang in the west, there is Zhongtiao in the south, the mountains of the city are analyzed, the east is connected to Taihang, the west is connected to Luliang, it can be said that the mountains are all around Jin, the mountains are reckless, the ravines are vertical and horizontal, to suppress bandits here, it is difficult to climb to the sky. Speaking of which, it's still more interesting to see in Shandong."

Li Fuda said with great interest: "I didn't expect Yang Hu to do a good job, and it is naturally indispensable for our people to secretly assist in creating such a big situation in Shandong." However, he can have the current situation, and his exhibition is still beyond my expectations, it seems that Liu Jin and Bi Zhen have been looting excessively in Shandong, and they have lost the support of the people, and they have also helped them a lot."

Li Fuda smiled and said: "Boyan Khan is also a wonderful person, the last cooperation failed, resulting in a difficult situation for him, the Tatar Ministry is about to fall apart, I am still worried that it will be difficult to cooperate with him again, I didn't expect that this time without my help, he took the initiative to help."

With him dangling around the border fortress, not only did the imperial court dare not use the border army, but even the Beijing camp did not dare to send it easily. This was greatly beneficial to Yang Hu's rebellion in Shandong. It's just that Boyan's behavior is a bit weird, since he is desperate and poured out, what is the use of such a small fight? If it is in vain, the hearts of the people will be scattered, and the invincible Boyan Khan will be ......... Te is also pitiful. ”

Jiang Nanyan said: "Sect Master, Boyan's current strength is difficult to make a big move, I think he is also desperate, and he went to the border to speculate and make profits, hoping to take advantage of the civil strife in the Ming Dynasty to find fighters, but this time it can help Yang Hu and Liu Liu."

On our side, the original plan was to use Yang Hu to rebel and buy time for King Ning. However, Yang Hu was able to gather so many soldiers and horses in a short period of time, which shows that the imperial court is not as powerful as we imagined. Why do you have to use the waste of King Ning? ”

Li Fuda shook his head and smiled: "The time has not come, the foundation of more than a hundred years of the Ming Dynasty is not so easy to shake." Although there is a lot of dissatisfaction among the common people, among the majority of the people, it still recognizes its orthodox status, and there are not many people who think about it.

After Zhengde succeeded to the throne, the traitors in the DPRK and China have been gradually removed, and on the surface it seems that it is now very weak, but in fact, Jiangnan, Southeast, Southwest, Northwest, and Northeast are still firmly in the hands of the imperial court and cannot be insulted.

Our strength is mainly in the north, Yang Hu can become a momentum so quickly, in fact, a considerable amount of help comes from our covert support, why not let him take the lead? We have nothing to lose in success or failure. If we raise troops now, it will be tantamount to competing with Yang Hu for food, because the territory that our forces can control is basically the place where Yang Hu has no scruples about going back and forth. When we raise troops, we are just dividing Yang Hu's soldiers.

Now the rest of the place is still very calm, King Ning is still fledgling, it is not time to rebel, now we must find a way to make Yang Hu's scourge greater, the trouble is angry and the people are resentful, the people are disheartened, and the people, gentry, and bureaucrats everywhere are in danger, and they will definitely gather grievances against the court.

The self-interests of the vassal kings in various places have been affected, and they will also be dissatisfied with the imperial court, so if King Ning raises troops and sends troops to the Northern Expedition in the name of suppressing the bandits, the Qing monarch's side, or supporting the royal family, he can win enough popular hearts and easily take down the exhausted imperial court. ”

He sighed and said, "Nanyan, do you know why I have to borrow King Ning to take over the world?" Repeated failures have forced me to be cautious. Let's raise troops, Yang Hu will raise troops, and it is the whole world that opposes us, once this force rises, it is not trivial, and there is little hope of success.

And it is difficult for King Ning to raise troops and appease, but it is just a dispute within the royal family, and other fallen kings will look on the sidelines, and many feudal officials will also sit back and speculate, and the resistance to success can be minimized. And once we succeed, we can use the puppet of King Ning to control the two largest and most elite forces, the Beijing camp and the border army, in our hands, and take orthodoxy in our hands.

At that time, no matter who is in charge outside the Guan, we will secretly contact and form an alliance, and hundreds of thousands of elite divisions on the nine sides can be liberated, and there will be such an invincible army that can conquer the south at any time, and then cut the domain in the name of King Ning, who is the emperor, maybe there is no need to send troops at all, and the vassal kings in various places will obediently hand over their territories and return to Beijing to be an idle prince, and then ......, hehe, King Ning will be useless."

Jiang Nanyan nodded and said, "What the sect leader said is that the only thing that his subordinates are worried about is whether Yang Hu and Liu Liu's power will be uncontrollable?" If he really let him control Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, and cut off the north and south, and the elite soldiers in northern Xinjiang could not rush to help, Yang Hu and Liu Liu took advantage of the situation to sit, in case King Ning raised troops and could not subdue him, wouldn't it be self-defeating? After all, the people around him are limited, and Yang Hu and Liu Liu are not easy to match."

Zhang Yin smiled faintly and said contemptuously: "When the incorrigible troubled times have not yet arrived today, under the current circumstances, Yang Hu and Liu Liu's generation have no long-term business accumulation, no support from the family, no response from Confucian scholars, and no extensive foundation of the people.

The big business of competing for the deer is not something that they can afford to play with without brains and foundations, whether it is Yang Hu or Liu Liu, they are all a group of rabble without long-term vision, and they can only play with their own heads.

Didn't Yang Ling go to Shandong? I look at this person, he has fought several times in the north, south, west and east, and his tactics are round, and he is not at the same level as Yang Hu's generation. Coupled with his pivotal position in the army and his influence on the emperor in the court, as the governor, he can definitely unify the scattered forces and obey his command and dispatch.

If my expectations are correct, Yang Hu is untenable in Shandong, and his only choice is to go south to the Central Plains, disturb the hinterland of the Central Plains, and complete his only mission of thieves: to create conditions for King Ning to build momentum and gather troops."

Zhang Yin picked up the teacup, twisted his fingers slightly, turned it gently, and smiled very happily: "Yang Hu and Liu Liu's generation are only suitable for being a tailor, a good tailor who specializes in making wedding clothes for others!" Can they deal with Yang Ling? Hehe, if a person is born as Xiang Yu, if you give him a hundred chances, he still can't beat Liu Bang. ”
