Zhang Jin said that the raptor crossed the river, forcibly suppressed the head snake, first beheaded Sun Anzu, and then broke Liu Badao, and the soldiers pointed directly at Gao Shida, the prince of the East China Sea.

The moment they saw Liu Badao, who rushed to join him like a lost dog, Gao Shida and the others were also very shocked, and even a little incredulous. Gao Shida, who claimed to be the Duke of the East China Sea, was even panicked in his heart, Zhang Jin said in the south, and Chen Pojun in the north, he was caught in the middle, and immediately felt extremely panicked.

Seeing Liu Badao's down-and-out appearance, Gao Shida couldn't help but feel a feeling of pity for the death of a rabbit and a fox. Liu Badao was a soldier from the same year as him, and Liu Badao, like him, used to be a local powerful family in Hebei, with a family fortune of tens of millions.

The troubled times have arisen, because of one reason or another, he scattered his family wealth, recruited troops and horses, and now six years have passed in the blink of an eye. In the past six years, he has seen one more fallen old brother after another.

Even now, he has felt tired and tired, but he can't help himself when he is in the rivers and lakes. He is no longer the landlord he was back then, even if he has the heart to wash his hands, but this world will not allow him to quit. How many midnight awakenings, in dreams, like those leaders of the peasant army, were suppressed by the imperial court one by one, and finally died miserably.

But he has no choice, he is now over half a hundred, and he knows the year of the destiny of heaven, but in his heart, he doesn't even know his own ending, how can he know the destiny of heaven?

A general like himself may die on the battlefield, when Gao Shida thought of this, the corners of his mouth twitched, like crying, and like laughing......

Zhang Jin said that he was aggressive, and Gao Shida was anxious. As far as he knew, Zhang Jin said that at least 300,000 people had gathered, 60,000 or 70,000 elite people, and even more than 30,000 cavalry.

After knowing these news, Gao Shida had a faint intention to retreat in his heart.

The older the rivers and lakes, the less guts they have.

It was still his general Dou Jiande who tried his best to dissuade him, and finally he agreed to Dou Jiande's strategy. First pretended to surrender Chen Po's army, to avoid being attacked by the north and south, and fought on both sides. And Dou Jiande promised him that he was willing to lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to meet Zhang Jincheng and bring people to see him.

Gao Shida didn't know why Dou Jiande was so resolute, Sun Anzu and Dou Jiande were both from Hebei, and Sun Anzu and Dou Jiande had a better relationship.

Dou Jiande's family has been farming for generations, and he said that he was a descendant of Dou Chong, the father of the Empress Dowager Jing of the Han Dynasty. There is a slight asset in the family. When Dou Jiande was young, he "made a big promise, the Joy of Heroes". Once the villagers were bereaved and could not be buried because of their poverty, when Dou Jiande was farming in the field, he sighed when he heard it, so he gave his own cattle to the villagers and let them mourn, and the result was very respected by the villagers. Another time, a few thieves went to Dou Jiande's house to rob at night, Dou Jiande stood by the door, and after the thieves entered the house, he killed three people one after another, and the rest of the thieves were so frightened that they didn't dare to enter again. The thieves had no choice but to ask for the bodies of the three to be returned, and Dou Jiande said, "You can throw a rope and tie it up." The thief then threw the rope into the house, Dou Jiande tied the rope to himself, and then let the thief drag out, Dou Jiande immediately jumped up with a knife, and killed several more people, and became more famous from then on. After that, Dou Jiande became the lieutenant chief, fled for breaking the law, and was able to return home in case of amnesty. When Dou Jiande's father died, there were more than 1,000 people buried in the township. He was not allowed to receive any gifts from them.

In the early years, Gao Shida and Sun Anzu also made friends with him on the Xixia Festival because of Dou Jiande's heavy promise.

In the seventh year of the Great Cause, Yang Guang, the Son of Heaven, conscripted troops to attack Goryeo, and Dou Jiande was called into the army. The county elected brave and outstanding people as leaders, and Dou Jiande was elected as the head of 200 people because of his bravery. At that time, there was a big flood in Shandong, and Sun Anzu's house in the same county as Dou Jiande was flooded, and his wife and children starved to death. The county commander saw that Sun Anzu was brave and chose him to join the army. Sun Anzu stated to the county magistrate that his family was poor and did not want to enlist in the army. The county magistrate was furious and sentenced to flogging. Sun Anzu was so angry that he killed the county commander and defected to Dou Jiande. Dou Jiande secretly let Sun Anzu escape and sent him to Gaojibo to fall into the grass.

Sun Anzu did as planned. Subsequently, Dou Jiande helped Sun Anzu gather hundreds of poor peasants and soldiers who refused to go east, occupy Gaojibo within a radius of hundreds of miles in the east of Zhangnan County, and raise troops to resist the imperial court.

Later, the world became more and more chaotic, and the people of Hebei became more and more difficult to survive. It was at that time that Zhang Jin said that he was also gathering troops in Hebei to oppose the Sui. But grateful for Dou Jiande's fame, although Sun Anzu, Zhang Jincheng, Gao Shida and others raised trouble near Dou Jiande's hometown and plundered the township. But he never attacked Dou Jiande's county and township. …,

The county suspected Jiande of fornicating with them, arrested and killed his entire family, and Dou Jiande led 200 people under his command to join him.

Although Gao Shida gathered troops to oppose the Sui, he was actually similar to the bandits, and a small fight could not become a climate. But after Dou Jiande defected to him, he immediately used his reputation in Hebei to gather a large number of people to vote, plus Dou Jiande was benevolent, won the hearts of the people, and was brave in battle, and had strategy, and it didn't take long for Gao Shida's troops and horses to exceed 10,000. Gao Shida also called himself the Duke of the East China Sea, and named Dou Jiande as the second soldier after him, becoming the second leader of the righteous army.

Dou Jiande was the most righteous, Gao Shida and Sun Anzu, Dou Jiande, and Zhang Jin said that they were all leaders of the Hebei Righteous Army, and in private they were brothers who had beheaded chickens, burned yellow paper and drank blood wine. Gao Shida is the boss, Sun Anzu is the second, Dou Jiande is the fourth, and Zhang Jin is the fourth. Although several rebel armies did not merge later, the private friendship was still there, and when facing the imperial court's conquest army, there were also many mutual watch and assistance.

When the news that Sun Anzu was harmed by Zhang Jin reached Hejian, Gao Shida saw that Dou Jiande, who was an iron-clad man in the past, was red in his eyes, and even his lips were biting out blood. He even saw Dou Jiande cut off the little finger of his left hand, pointing to the sky and swearing that he would not share the sky with Zhang Jin in this life.

Seeing Dou Jiande's appearance, Gao Shida was also moved.

Over the years, Dou Jiande's prestige in the righteous army has become higher and higher, and even the military power is in his hands. He also somewhat understood in his heart that the most prestigious person in the righteous army was no longer him, the big boss Donghai Gong, but the soldier Dou Jiande. He came over in blood and fire, and he was also faintly worried, afraid that Dou Jiande would be unfavorable to him one day. But in the end, he still wants to believe in Dou Jiande after all, if he doesn't even believe in people like Dou Jiande, who else in the world can be trusted.

Seeing Dou Jiande's death for Sun Anzu's death, Gao Shida was also very moved. Compared with Sun Anzu, Gao Shida felt that his relationship with Dou was not better. Dou Jiande can do this step for Sun Anzu, so in Dou's heart, he must have a higher position.

Without further hesitation, Gao Shida chose to completely believe in Dou Jiande, and also chose to completely decentralize. He agreed to Dou Jiande's plan and sent the young but very scheming Su Lie to Zhuo County. In the end, it was decided that in addition to leading 30,000 people to sit in Hejian County, the remaining 70,000 soldiers and horses in the righteous army would be under the command of Dou Jiande, and he would go south to meet Zhang Jincheng.

Dou Jiande did not delay for half a moment, and in Leshou County, Hejian County, he gathered 70,000 soldiers and horses, including 55,000 infantry and 15,000 light cavalry. With an army of 70,000, he rushed to Gonggao non-stop.

Gonggao County has been out of Hejian County and is under the jurisdiction of Pingyuan County. Pingyuan County is south of the Yongji Canal of the Canal, but only this Gonggao County is a separate county on the north side of the Canal. The county seat of Gonggao is between Zhangshui and the canal, and at this time, in this small county, there are 30,000 horses stationed in Zhang Jincheng's wife's brother Wang Heisi.

Like a bridgehead, if the Hejian rebels want to go south, they must take Gonggao City in order to cross the canal.

But just after crossing the Zhangshui, Dou Jiande ordered the march to stop and camp in place. Although Dou Jiande was eager to slash Zhang Jincheng immediately, he was born at the bottom, but he was not as reckless as Zhang Jincheng.

Plan and then act, only three steps can be done in one step. And impulsiveness, except for failure, can not be exchanged for anything. He knows Zhang Jincheng's character, over the years, Zhang Jincheng has had ups and downs, from Hebei to Henan, then to Shandong, and finally to Hebei. Zhang Jin is known as a bold person, and he is even more brave when he fights, and he is always a pioneer and is very supported by his subordinates. But Zhang Jincheng was only from a small village, and Zhang Jincheng, who didn't know a single big word, was full of the thoughts of the villagers.

A small fortune is safe, and there is no long-term plan. Zhang Jin said that this was the case every time, and with bravery, he crossed the state and county, and plundered everywhere, and laid down one city after another. But as a result, every time after conquering the city, Zhang Jin said that he would only plunder around, and he was in a happy mood, and he didn't have the slightest intention of worrying at all. It is precisely because of this that Zhang Jin claimed to have taken one city after another, and was driven around by officers and soldiers. The soldiers and horses under his command have changed batch after batch, often suddenly with tens or even more than 100,000 soldiers, but often it doesn't take long for them to flee around with a small number of old brothers.

Although now Zhang Jin said that he had fought together with the two teams of Sun Anzu and Liu Badao, and gathered two or three hundred thousand people for a time. But Dou Jiande faced him without timidity. In his opinion, Zhang Jin's soldiers and horses are nothing more than a rabble, a county of chickens and dogs, and they will be defeated with one blow.

Dou Jiande never felt that he should be like this, and he said that heroes come out of troubled times. He felt that this era, although it had ruined his family, had also given him another life. He was no longer a small landowner, nor was he a small official.

What kind of prince will Xiangning have?

He didn't want to believe it, he only knew that Han Gaozu was once just a pavilion chief, and he was not as good as himself in terms of background. Also in troubled times, Han Gaozu raised three swords, and finally opened the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years. He wanted to believe that he would definitely do it, and this time he insisted on asking Gao Shida to let him lead his troops to meet Zhang Jincheng, although it was also to avenge Sun Anzu's brother. However, he actually has a bigger plan in mind.

Looking at the Zhangshui River behind him, Dou Jiande's eyes were full of confidence and expectation, his time was coming......
