Chapter 3: No Clothes (6b)
Similar to other smoke and dust, except for a very few people under the command of Yongqiu thief Li Gongyi, who have the ambition of being a marquis and paying homage to the generals, the rest are ordinary people who are forced to live by the imperial court. They followed Li Da's side just to live a peaceful life, so after the soldiers and horses in the headquarters had a foothold, what they were most afraid of was that the war would burn to their doorstep again. Who would have thought that God had no eyes, and someone actually recruited the world-famous Boling Jingqi. Not only was the little family wealth that everyone had worked hard to accumulate for a few years to save was taken by the dog official surnamed Li to save the disaster, but the old camp where women and children were housed was also burned down by Li thieves.
But the minions and the old and weak women and children who were lucky enough to be released hated the most at the moment was not the dog official surnamed Li, but the bastards who recruited the dog official. They heard from various sources that the reason why the Boling army came all the way to Henan was because some people were still relying on his head after killing Zhang Xutuo and refused to return it, and they did not come to conquer it on the orders of the imperial court at all.
"If the surnamed Zhai and the surnamed Li had returned their heads earlier, we wouldn't have suffered this crime!" The old and weak who were driven from Yongqiu to Waihuang by the Boling army quietly scolded.
"Alas, that Sutuo is also a hero! The big boss and the second boss have indeed done it! A few of the minion soldiers who had survived muttered secretly.
"According to what you say, Zhang Xutuo's head is not hung on Wagang Mountain, and the surname Li will not come?"
"Of course, the surname Li is an official from Hebei. Which Hebei official have you ever seen in charge of Henan's affairs in the past few years? ”
The remnants of the army were not entirely convinced of the rumors, but more than one heard the Boling generals say that they were only here for revenge. Among the tens of thousands of captives, only a few big leaders who led more than 1,000 soldiers were beheaded and displayed to the public, and the rest were all given rations for one to three days, and were banished to Waihuang, Chenliu, Jiyang and other places in batches.
For Wagang generals such as Wang Dangren, Zhou Ding, and Fang Xianbo, who were entrenched in Waihuang, Chenliu, Jiyin and other places, this was by no means good news. Now everyone is nominally under the orders of Li Mi, the Duke of Pushan, so he and Li Gongyi, the commander of the Yongqiu Battalion, are colleagues. In the case that Li Gongyi was not killed in battle, the rest of the commanders not only could not swallow his subordinates, but also had the responsibility to take care of these remnants of the fleeing soldiers. And the news brought by the remnants of the soldiers spread faster than the wind, and in less than three days, almost all the commanders of the old nest on both sides of the canal knew the specific reason for the killing of the Boling Elite Cavalry. In the case of not being sure of winning the battle, almost all of them looked at the main village of Wagang Mountain.
The main village of Wagang Mountain, Li Mi, the chief scoop of the heroes of Henan No. 47 Road, has no time to take care of the itch of scabies from Yongqiu. His eyes were now fixed on Luokoucang, forty miles southwest of Tiger Prison Pass. Millions of stone grains were hoarded there. Before Zhang Xutuo was beheaded, the Wagang army had fought there many times, but they all returned in vain because of the cunning and courage of the old thief. Now, the old thief Zhang Xutuo is dead, and Pei Renji, Liu Changgong and other Great Sui soldiers and horses near Xingyang cannot cooperate with each other, and the plan to attack Luokoucang to seize military rations has been put on the agenda again.
Even if the main force of the Wagang Army under the command of Xu Maogong was not sent to Luokou, Li Mi did not intend to take revenge with the help of others. Where did he fall and got up, he lost to Li Xu and Xu Maogong turned the tide. Now, he wants to take revenge with his own skills, and he no longer needs to fake his hand on Xu Maogong.
The scheming Li Mi saw very clearly that with more than 4,000 cavalry in his hands, even if the champion general Li Xu tossed around Yongqiu, he could not really break the bones of the Wagang army. And the reason why the other party made such a big move was probably to gain control of the officials and troops near Xingyang as soon as possible, but with Li Mi's understanding of the Great Sui officialdom, he knew that the possibility was almost zero.
"Zihui, you write a letter to Wang Dangren in my name, telling him not to go out of the mountains to face the battle, no matter how provoked by the surname Li. This thief commanded all cavalry, and our army suffered losses in field battles with him. But with more than 4,000 people alone, he couldn't capture the main village of the Outer Yellow Army! Spreading out the urgent documents sent by the battalions along the canal one by one, Li Mi pointed to one of the instructions to his henchman Fang Yanzao.
"Yes, I'll start writing right away!" Fang Yanzao agreed, and spread out the pen and paper beside Li Mi. His handwriting is very beautiful, it is standard Wang's cursive, but it is a pity that such a good character makes Wang Dangren's rough ruffian look at it. The rough ruffian surnamed Wang may not know how to appreciate it, but will say that this character is written with missing arms and legs.
In the entire Wagang Mountain, except for a few such as Li Mi, Xu Maogong and Cheng Zhijie, Fang Yanzao did not look at other colleagues very well. Including the original founder of the cottage, Zhai Rang, in his eyes, is just a rat who kills cattle and dogs, and has the ability to be a bandit leader, and if he wants to be a hero, it is simply a monkey and a crown.
And there are also many people in Wagangzhai who are uncomfortable watching Fang Yanzao. The reason why these heroes from the three mountains and five mountains respect Li Mi is because Li Mi not only has the ability but also responds to the ballad of "peach and plum". Although Fang Yanzao is Li Mi's confidant for a long time, in the eyes of all heroes, he is just a greedy and jealous poor sour, who is usually full of big words, and he will show his stuff at a critical moment, and he is not worthy of their respect at all.
The two sides got along with each other, and on a few occasions they almost quarreled in public, but fortunately, Li Mi and Xu Maogong mediated in the middle, so they are not yet drawn to each other. But it is absolutely impossible to live in harmony with each other. At the celebration banquet before the New Year, Wang Dangren also took the lead in making trouble, so that Fang Yanzao, who served wine to everyone, could not come to the stage. And he was happy with it for several days.
Thinking of the other party's face that day, Fang Yanzao felt a burst of disgust in his heart, the movement of his wrist was slightly faster, and some of the strokes looked like feathers.
"Zihui seems to be unsettled? You're a good person, but you're too arrogant! Li Mi noticed the anger hidden between the lines at a hurried glance, staggered around the bookcase, patted his subordinates on the shoulder, and comforted. Dangren is a straight man, and he hasn't read much, so why should you be like him? Besides, if we want to take the world, we will have to do without these Fan Guan, Yingbu and the like. In the past, if Gaozu only relied on Xiao He and Zhang Liang, how could he establish the Han family for hundreds of years? ”
"What the secret prince has taught is this!" was poked in front of Li Mi and several colleagues, Fang Yanzao not only felt embarrassed, but felt warm and coaxed in his heart, and he was indescribably comfortable. Fan Xuan and Yingbu, these dog slaughterers, no matter how arrogant they are, can't climb on Xiao He's head. As long as Li Mi successfully wins the world, won't he Fang Yanzao be the next Xiao He? As soon as his anger calmed down, his talent immediately swelled like a spring, and in less than half a pillar of incense, a military order issued in Li Mi's private capacity had been written. It's actually Wen Si Lu Liu, magnificent.
"Jun Yan, you show Zihui, don't let people pick out any thorns!" Li Mi saw that Fang Yanzao had already put down the brush, and staggered back to the handsome case, and ordered with a smile.
Since being shot off the horse by Li Xu the year before last, his leg has not been healed. Therefore, he walked staggeringly, as if he had eaten three buckets of strong wine. But this does not affect Li Mi's heroic image in the eyes of the staff around him, the literati value each other's resourcefulness and talent, and they will not judge people by appearance, let alone be strong.
"Li's child, he doesn't know how to be obedient and disobedient, he uses his troops in vain, and he is brave in vain. This is the first person to sell the grass, how can he be the enemy of the general. Mi had no time to look south at the moment, so he trusted the general with his heart. It is hoped that the general will defend according to the danger, so that the thief will have no gap. When he arrives at the right time, he will break it like a civet catching a mouse......." The ancestor of the room, Junyan, picked up the military book written by Fang Yanzao, and nodded lightly while reading, "Very good, very good, Brother Fang is talented, Jun Yan is not as good as ......."
"Let me check if there is any misleading meaning, not to ask you and Zihui to praise each other!" Li Mi tapped the bookcase with his fingers, and a slight smile appeared on his scarred face. He enjoys the current days when heroes from all over the world are competing to vote, like Zu Junyan now, who has long been famous for moving the world with an article. There are also Shanyuan Zhen and Shi Deji, who are sitting not far away and burying their heads in official documents, both of whom are from famous families. With these people by his side to help give advice, Li Mi could feel the kind of freedom and ease of scolding Fang Xuan. Otherwise, calling a group of heroes all day long is a brother, refreshing and refreshing, giving people the feeling that they are still like a group of bandits, not a hegemon.
"This letter is sincere and reasonable, and after reading it, Commander Wang must be able to feel the meaning of Mi Gong's admiration and treat it with caution!" Zu Junyan arched his hand to Li Mi, cast an apologetic glance at Fang Yanzao, and replied with a smile.
"Jun Yan has something to say, just say it, Fang is not the narrow-minded villain who can't listen to the words of the ear!" Fang Yanzao shrugged his shoulders with a smile and responded. In his heart, Zu Junyan, Shanyuanzhen and some former Great Sui officials who had just thrown themselves up the mountain belonged to the same way, and in front of his colleagues, his mind would be much broader. And for some aliens, they don't like each other anyway, and there is no need to tolerate each other.
"But Jun Yan has a word, I don't know if I should say it or not!" Zu Junyan gave Li Mi another salute and asked for instructions as a staff member to treat the lord.
This common officialdom etiquette makes people feel very comfortable, Li Mi smiled and waved his hand, making a brave appearance, "Jun Yan doesn't need these red tape, it's all our own people here, but it's okay to say it!" ”
"Yes! Please forgive Jun Yan for being abrupt! Zu Junyan put down the military book and admonished: "The secret prince asked Wang Dangren to strictly guard it, which is naturally a clever plan." The surnamed Li can't solve his worries, and it is difficult to stride to Xingyang to meet Pei Renji and others! But since there are only more than 4,000 people under his command, why didn't Mi Gong let General Wang Bodang move south from Jiyang and attack Wang Dangren together? Even if he can't defeat the Li thief in one fell swoop, at least he can fight with him, which will hurt the Boling army! ”
"That's too cheap, surnamed Li!" Without waiting for Li Mi to answer, Fang Yanzao raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly.
He couldn't forget the shame of that day, even if Li Mi didn't want to retaliate, he Fang Yanzao couldn't gently open the page of humiliation.
That battle not only caused a big blow to the forces dominated by Li Mi, him, Zheng Detao, Yang Defang and other foreign celebrities, but also made the prestige of Xu Maogong, Cheng Zhijie and others skyrocket. If it weren't for Li Mi's trick to kill Zhang Xutuo last year, any decision made in the cottage would depend on Xu Maogong's face.
This account had to be settled. The defeat of the Wagang army that day was mainly due to the poor training of the soldiers. Now Wagang has more than 400,000 troops, even if you don't count the broken camp under Xu Maogong and Cheng Zhijie, even if the other battalions are calculated according to one soldier in every ten people, the elite soldiers who can compete head-on with the official army can make up 50,000 people. Therefore, in terms of numbers, Wagang Haojie is not afraid of the four thousand Boling army at all. As long as the imminent problem of military food supply is solved, it is possible to repeat the battle of Dahai Temple.
At that time, Fang Yanzao will personally take a knife and cut off the flesh of the Li thief one by one, so as to avenge the death of Pao Ze on the bank of the canal that day.
This feud is unforgettable and unforgettable.
