The news of Li Xinke's return to Huai made Zhang Fangyan and He Tengjiao, who were blocked in the Qinghe River, excited, and then He Tengjiao was worried, "There are only 3,000 people in the town, and I don't know the number of casualties after Ke returns to Linhuai, how can they be in the army of 200,000 thieves...... Take it easy? ”

He Tengjiao originally wanted to say how Li Xin's 3,000 people were thieves but the opponent of the 10,000 army, no matter how powerful Li Xin was, the soldiers under his command were all warriors with one as two, and they were also invincible with two fists.

In fact, whether it is Zhang Fangyan or He Tengjiao, anyone can draw a judgment from this simple military report, the reason why Li Xin chose to deal with the thieves but the Wan army was to attack Linhuai knowing that the end would be like this, then there is only one conclusion, that is, Li Xin is determined to use his own strength to contain the thieves who are attacking the Fengyang Mansion in the capital with all his might.

Then the problem arises again, if Li Xin is really fighting the army of thieves with his own strength, and now the passage of Guò Qinghe has become an urgent military matter that cannot be delayed. The garrison of the imperial court will be in Shanyang City, the seat of Huai'an Prefecture, so if you want to transfer troops to Zhang Fangyan, you must first pass through Guò Qinghe.

This is not to say that the transfer of troops at that time was not necessary for the governor himself, but at the moment the guards of all sides were cowardly, even if there were envoys who went with Zhang Fangyan's order to go to the governor, they would still be prevaricated and the fighters would be delayed. Therefore, Zhang Fangyan personally supervised the battle became the only feasible way. After all, Zhang Fangyan was the governor of the two provinces appointed and dismissed by the emperor himself, and it was not an exaggeration to kill him if he violated the order in public.

He Tengjiao wanted to speak and stopped, but saw Zhang Fang get up sternly, and said categorically: "Go, go with the old man to meet the ignorant guard who only knows the old Zhou Ge..."

Why is the Qinghe guard so arrogant, He Tengjiao doesn't know, he only knows that if this person doesn't even listen to Zhang Fangyan's words, he will definitely behead this person first, otherwise if it is delayed for a long time, how long can he be called to capture those people? Therefore, when he rushed to the place where the Qinghe guards with Zhang Fangyan by boat, he brought dozens of henchmen with him, just waiting for the guards to be dissatisfied, and he went down with a knife to clean up. Zhang Ge is weak, he He Tengjiao is not weak, what if he offends Zhou Yanru? He asked himself that he was devoted to a certain country, upright, and could stand the test of history, even if he died because of it.

The Qinghe guard was not arrogant to the extreme, as soon as Zhang Fangyan appeared, all his previous arrogance disappeared and he knelt on the ground. It's just that if you want to let the fleet pass, but you can't, you can't, and you have to say in a hurry: "If Elder Ge is really in a hurry, why don't you ask Elder Zhou Ge?" ”

Zhang Fangyan was so angry that the guard general's beard trembled, and he actually shouted: "Where are the left and right?" Take this person down to the old man..."

After hearing this, He Tengjiao was stunned, he wanted to order this person to be cut down, but Zhang Ge Lao actually ordered this person to be taken down. After thinking about it, it was appropriate to take this guy, so he changed the order to behead him to take it. In the midst of the lightning and fire, several strong men pressed the guard to the ground with their hands and feet......

Zhang Fangyan obviously didn't calm down from his anger, and his voice was still a little trembling: "The old man, as the governor of Zhejiang, is the sword of the Son of Heaven, and if there are people who don't listen to orders, civil officials below the third rank can be cut first and then played, not to mention that you have a garrison here?" ”

The guard was still struggling and was very unconvinced, but after hearing this, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he was a little incoherent, and then begged for mercy repeatedly, saying straight but he didn't dare to obey...... The hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, the guard knows that even if he has the support of Zhou Ge Lao, it is difficult to quench his thirst from far water, and when this Zhang Ge Lao beheads himself, how can Zhou Ge Lao work hard for a mere garrison and a dignified governor? Besides, even if you work hard, how can you talk about it again?

After listening to Zhang Fangyan's harsh words, the guard's attitude turned a 180-degree turn, and He Tengjiao, who saw it, secretly smacked his tongue and secretly praised Zhang Fangyan's beauty, and then he was ashamed, knowing that he had underestimated this old man. In this way, even if the goal is achieved, and there is no unauthorized murder, it is much more clever than one's own method of cutting things off.

After crossing the Huai River waterway, the fleet entered the last section of the Grand Canal, and the water surface was significantly wider. He Tengjiao had a lot of exchanges with Zhang Fangyan, but he only felt that this pavilion elder revealed from time to time that he was not very anxious about Li Xin's safety. If it weren't for this person's city government, there would only be one explanation, that is, Li Xin's life and death would have been insignificant in Zhang Fangyan's heart.

But it seems a little strange to explain it like this, after all, after Zhang Fangyan heard that Li Xin was fighting with 200,000 thieves with his own strength, he swept away his previous weakness and forced the Qinghe guard to let him go. Isn't that inconsistent? Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that the reason why Zhang Ge Lao was so calmly hacked to death was not because he didn't care about the comfort of the Hou Zhen, but because he had enough confidence in this person...

He Tengjiao finally couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart: "Why does the elder of the pavilion have such full confidence in the marquis of Zhenyu?" ”

But when he heard Zhang Fangyan laugh loudly, he saw him rubbing the gray goatee under his chin, and said slowly: "That's because you don't know the marquis of Zhenyu... Since the Marquis of Zhenyu led the troops, which time has he not won more with less, and won the victory that made the world unbelievable? This doesn't count, hasn't Yun Cong heard of the reputation of the Hou Shanshou? When he was in Jinzhou, 100,000 Dongyu were helpless, and the Jurchens claimed to be invincible with 10,000, let alone 100,000? How are these 200,000 thieves different from local chickens and dogs? ”

After hearing this, he was very embarrassed and secretly ashamed, he had only vaguely heard that Li Xin had a good record in the past, but he didn't expect Zhang Fangyan's evaluation of the Zhenyu Marquis to be so high? But......

Before sunset, Zhang Fangyan arrived at Shanyang City in a smooth manner, but things did not go as smoothly as expected. The 20,000 Ming troops stationed in Shanyang had obviously been immobile for a long time, and even Yang Sichang had not been able to transfer a single soldier from the east with the help of the governor's seal, and Zhang Fangyan wanted to mobilize the army to fight the thieves desperately as soon as he came, how could it be so easy?

As the chief general of the First Army, Sun Zhijie, the chief soldier of Huai'an, expressed great goodwill to Zhang Fangyan's arrival, but as long as he mentioned sending troops to attack the enemy, he shook his head and bluntly said all kinds of suffering......

Soon, the conversation between the two people had reached an impasse, and He Tengjiao's palms were full of cold sweat. This Huai'an general soldier is far from being comparable to the Qinghe guard, and he must not kill him with a knife, if Zhang Fangyan is always so grinding, people only do it as a scoundrel, what can he do?

Just when He Tengjiao was worried, he heard Zhang Fangyan suddenly raise his voice, and said angrily: "Hugh wants to quarrel with the old man again, do you only say whether to send troops or not?" ”

Seeing that Zhang Fangyan had a posture of turning his face, Sun Zhijie still had a stiff smile on his face, and replied calmly: "Isn't Elder Ge forcing the standard?" If the Huai'an army can withstand a battle, how can it be like this? If, in the middle capital, Fengyang has a bad pool, and the emperor blames it, the thunder and anger will bear it..."

Don't look at Sun Zhijie's humility on the surface, in fact, these words have another meaning, Zhang Fangyan is the governor of Zhejiang, if the central capital Fengyang falls, he is the first person responsible. In fact, Zhang Fangyan was given a soft nail.

He Tengjiao understood what he heard, but shook his head secretly, Zhang Fangyan could only use the Son of Heaven Sword to kill this person, right?

But he heard Zhang Fangyan sneer: "The old man has the emperor's grace, and if there is a mistake, he should apologize." But before that, the old man will definitely invite the sword of the Son of Heaven to behead the thief of the country who has brought disaster to the country and the people, and the corpse is vegetarian..."

Sure enough, after Sun Zhijie heard the words of the Son of Heaven Sword, his face changed dramatically. The emperor actually delegated power to the thin old man in front of him in such a way, and he was only a facial feature, even if he was a second grade, he was also among the first and second grades. Thinking of this, he can't carry it anymore, wouldn't he be unhappy with his head if he continues to carry it?

Immediately knelt on the ground, and said, "Pavilion Elder, please mark some time......

Zhang Fangyan saw that Sun Zhijie was soft, and his tone remained unchanged, and he asked again: "At this time tomorrow, can you send troops?" ”

Sun Zhijie hesitated in his heart, but he didn't dare to slack off in his mouth, for fear that Zhang Fangyan would propose the Son of Heaven Sword to be cut first and then played.

"Back to the old pavilion, I'm afraid that the army will all send troops, but it is feasible for the vanguard to go first..."

Zhang Fangyan immediately said categorically: "Okay... 5,000 men and horses as the vanguard, and they will set off early tomorrow morning..."

Seeing that Zhang Fangyan had a posture of turning his face, Sun Zhijie still had a stiff smile on his face, and replied calmly: "Isn't Elder Ge forcing the standard?" If the Huai'an army can withstand a battle, how can it be like this? If, in the middle capital, Fengyang has a bad pool, and the emperor blames it, the thunder and anger will bear it..."

Don't look at Sun Zhijie's humility on the surface, in fact, these words have another meaning, Zhang Fangyan is the governor of Zhejiang, if the central capital Fengyang falls, he is the first person responsible. In fact, Zhang Fangyan was given a soft nail.
