494 Shouzhou
The news of the defeat of the Huainan Provincial army in Qi'an, under the deliberate propaganda of the heavenly thorns, flew out like the wind, and spread to several surrounding continents and counties in a few days, and the people who listened to it all changed color, as if they couldn't believe that the imperial army had suffered a defeat or a big defeat, but there were also people who were ready to move.
Hearing the news of Qi An's defeat, Chu Haoyu's face changed greatly, and he wore a robe without wind, as if he was angry in his heart. It took a long time to calm down the anger in his heart, and Chu Haoyu said in a deep voice: "Sun Hou, if you take someone to Qi'an, you must find out the reason for the defeat of Huainan Lieutenant, and the truth of the Heavenly Thorn traitor." ”
Sun Hou has been following Chu Haoyu for six or seven years, almost Chu Haoyu's shadow, but he rarely goes out alone, so when he heard that Chu Haoyu sent him out, Sun Hou was excited in his heart, but Sun Hou also knew that the situation was urgent, and there was no change on his face, so he replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, the little one will definitely live up to the expectations of the child." At this moment, Sun Hou didn't talk nonsense, bowed down and bowed to Chu Haoyu and left.
After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Shouzhou." At the end of the words, Chu Haoyu jumped out with his horse's belly.
Shouzhou is located in the key military town is a place where soldiers must fight, stationed a battalion of thousands of soldiers and horses, since the Qi'an people's uprising, Shouzhou has been on guard, especially with the arrival of the army of the god captain, from time to time galloping scouts, full of tension to come. In the main tent of the Shouzhou battalion, Zhang Yaowei, the chief general of the Shenji Captain, was staring at the map of Qi'an, with a pensive expression.
Zhang Yaowei looked around fifty, his appearance was simple and cold, his eyes were deep and calm, his posture was straight and straight, although he was not wearing armor, he had a huge atmosphere in his solemnity. Zhang Yaowei was born in a bitter cold, joined the Shenji Lieutenant when he joined the army at a young age, and became the personal guard of the military god Fang Jing because of his bravery in battle, and was deeply influenced by Fang Jing, especially Fang Jing's calmness of the wisdom pearl, the more he encountered the war, the calmer he became, and it was this kind of character that made him become the main general of the army from a guard, guarding the south of the Yangtze River.
Since receiving the news of the Qi'an mutiny, although his generals repeatedly asked for troops to quell the rebellion, Zhang Yaowei smiled and said nothing every time, that is, Huainan Province and Jiangnan Province requested troops, and Zhang Yaowei also suppressed it, not because he was unwilling to take the risk of sending troops privately, but because he believed that the Qi'an Mutiny would not cause a big mess. Until he received the order of the Seventh Prince, Zhang Yaowei immediately ordered 10,000 soldiers and horses to send to Qi'an, not wanting to get the news of Huainanwei's defeat as soon as he arrived in Shouzhou. After getting the news, Zhang Yaowei immediately stopped his troops, as if waiting for something.
Seeing that the main general Zhang Yaowei looked pensive, although the generals were in a hurry, no one bothered him, and at this moment, a loud shout sounded in the camp tent, saying: "Urgent report, urgent report!" ”
In the shouting, a scout ran directly into the tent of the handsome, bowed down and said: "General Qiyu, I found several Huainan lieutenants to defeat the army, and learned that the reason for the defeat of Qi'an was that there were internal thieves, Wei Jiangtao, the deputy general of Huainan Lieutenant, and Huang Wei, the partial general, were all traitors, and it took a blow in the battle to cause the defeat of Qi'an." ”
Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed in Zhang Yaowei's calm eyes, staring at the scout and shouting, "Really? ”
Not daring to hesitate, the scout immediately replied: "General Qiyu, the little one has brought back the Huainan Lieutenant and can testify." ”
Zhang Yaowei said in a deep voice: "Bring it up." ”
Soon, several ragged soldiers were brought into the tent, bowed down and said, "The little one greets the general." ”
Staring at everyone, Zhang Yaowei opened his mouth and asked, "Where are you from?" ”
Under the gaze of the generals, a burly man showed an embarrassed look on his face, and opened his mouth to say: "The first captain of the small hussar battalion, Li Zhen." ”
Looking at Li Zhen, Zhang Yaowei asked again: "Tell me about the battle of Qi'an in detail, and there must be no concealment. ”
Li Zhen really didn't dare to hide anything, and opened his mouth and said: "General Qiyu, at first, under the leadership of General Wei, my Huainan Wei 3,000 army was like a bamboo to hit the city of Qi'an, that morning as soon as the sky was bright, we set up a military formation to prepare to take Qi'an Mansion in one go, but I don't want thousands of people to rush out of Qi'an Mansion, ready to fight against my Huainan Lieutenant, the little one still remembers that General Wei said that they were not self-sufficient. General Wei ordered my hussar battalion to attack the right flank, Xiao cavalry battalion to impact the left flank, Huang Wei Huang General Huang led the Chinese army to attack head-on, but just when our hussar battalion and Xiao cavalry battalion were about to rush up, there were countless tripping ropes on the ground, and the Xiao cavalry battalion and my hussar battalion suffered countless casualties and could not impact at all, and when the army in the middle of the road rushed up, Huang Wei actually killed his comrades, and shouted Suo Po's appearance. ”
"Suva's apparition?" In his own muttering, Zhang Yaowei turned his head to look at the old man in the Confucian robe standing on the side. The old man's sideburns are white, and his forehead is also full of wrinkles, but his figure is tall and elegant, and his eyes are shining, and he will be a romantic figure when he is young. Guo Nanying, the long history of the Divine Captain, is also the old man of the Divine Captain, and is highly respected among the Divine Captain.
Seeing the confusion in Zhang Yaowei's eyes, Guo Nanying opened his mouth and said: "General, the manifestation of Suo Po should be the saying of Suo Po Sect, which has a history of 100 years and is widely spread in Huainan Dao, and there are many believers, but I rarely hear about the evil deeds of Su Po Sect, and the court has never asked about it. If what he said is true, this popular uprising should have a lot to do with the Supo Sect. ”
After a moment of silence, Zhang Yaowei opened his mouth and said, "Investigate this matter in detail, you continue." ”
Li Zhen immediately said: "Huang Wei killed his comrades, and the Chinese army became chaotic, but at this moment, General Wei shouted that Huang Wei had rebelled, wanted to kill Huang Wei, and led his personal guards to attack the Chinese army. At this point, Li Zhen knocked his head on the ground and bowed: "General, you must avenge my Huainan Lieutenant!" ”
Zhang Yaowei didn't answer him, but waved his hand and said, "Take it down." Glancing at the generals, Zhang Yaowei opened his mouth and asked, "What do you think?" ”
When Zhang Yaowei's words fell, a general with thick eyebrows and big eyes said: "Defect in battle, kill your comrades, general, you will order the troops, and the last general will definitely cut off the head of Wei Jiangtao, the traitor." ”
Suddenly, Zhang Yaowei frowned lightly but did not speak, and at this moment, a thin and calm general clasped his fists and said: "General, the last general thinks that the top priority is to find out the truth of Qi An. After a pause, the general continued: "According to what Li Zhen said, this popular rebellion is related to the Suo Po Sect, gathering thousands of young and strong, as well as a black armor and black mask of elite cavalry, and so far we don't know who the enemy commander is, and he can manipulate Wei Jiangtao, the deputy general of Huainan Lieutenant, so we have to be cautious." ”
This person is the commander of the scout battalion of the god captain, Han Xiaohui, in the battle of Mobei that year, he took several scouts into the enemy camp to find out the news. When Han Xiaohui's words fell, someone said: "General, the last general thinks that what General Han said is very true, first to find out the truth of Qi'an, and the defeat of Qi'an will definitely make the morale of the rebels high and affect the judgment of the people, hmph, the news of Qi'an's defeat can spread throughout the surrounding counties and counties in just a few days, it must be deliberately done by that group of rebellious ministers and thieves, not to mention that the Suo Po Sect is deeply rooted in Huainan Province and has to be guarded against." Therefore, the last general thought that he could send an elite all the way to Qi'an, so that the people could understand what the real elite division was, and deter those who had negative intentions. ”
Captain Shenji has a total of three mansions and nine brigades of soldiers and horses, and hundreds of thousands of troops, and this time it is Li Yu, the general of Yizhenwei, who speaks. Li Yu is not tall but extremely strong, with an ordinary appearance and bright eyes, at first glance, he is a great general who can fight well.
It is also true that the 10,000 horses led by Zhang Yaowei this time are the elite of the Shenji Captain, and the generals he leads are also people who can fight well, after all, there is no war in the world now, if these generals want to go further, they need some military merits, and this Qi'an civil mutiny is a good opportunity for them. At this moment, another general said: "General, the people of Qi'an have changed, and the counties to which Qi'an belongs are all controlled by the rebellious ministers and thieves. ”
This general is a partial general of the first brigade, Chen Xiao, is a famous Confucian general of the Shenji Captain, and he seems to be elegant, with extraordinary martial arts, and he is a martial arts master who can be ranked as the number one of the Shenji Captain.
Listening to the advice of the generals, Zhang Yaowei tapped his head, and a faint smile appeared on his solemn face, and most of the generals were old men who had known Zhang Yaowei for many years, and it was clear that he already had a perfect plan when he showed this kind of smile, but before he could speak, a guard strode in, knelt down and said: "General Qiyu, I just got the news that the Seventh Prince has rushed to Shouzhou and is rushing to the camp." ”
frowned slightly, but Zhang Yaowei immediately said: "Everyone, you will welcome the Seventh Prince, wearing armor." ”
Soon, Zhang Yaowei, who was wearing silver armor, led a group of generals to the gate of the camp, and bowed down to Chu Haoyu, who was galloping, and said, "The last general will see the prince!" ”
Chu Haoyu knew Zhang Yaowei and had a good impression of him. Le Ma stopped, Chu Haoyu looked at Zhang Yaowei and said, "It turned out that General Zhang personally led the army, get up, talk in the camp." Turning over and dismounting, Chu Haoyu seemed to have become the master, and walked to the handsome tent first.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" After thanking one after another, the generals stood up and followed Chu Haoyu into the tent, but at this moment, the area around the tent was already occupied by the black-armored blood guards.
Walking into the tent, Chu Haoyu looked at the map for a moment, and then didn't raise his head and asked, "General Zhang, Qi'an was defeated, what do you think should happen now?" ”
Zhang Yaowei had already made a decision, and immediately replied with his fists: "Lord Qiqi, the last general has just discussed with the generals, thinking that the army can be divided into two ways, one way the army is directly approaching Qi'an, and at the same time, camping in Qi'an County to deter the young people, carefully check the reality of Qi'an, and the other road will sweep the surrounding counties and counties, and then surround Qi'an, and the battle will be settled. ”
After thinking for a moment, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Just according to what General Zhang said, arrange it!" ”
