Wanzhou - the border of Xingzhou.
Zhu Biao had just taken Deng Zhong's pursuers around in a big circle, and then relied on the absolute speed advantage of his own army to leave Deng Zhong's army behind.
When I came to the border of Wanzhou and Xingzhou again, I was no longer facing Mingkang in Xiangwu County, but Pengyang County in the north of Xiangwu County. Zhu Biao did not show mercy to Xingzhou's subordinates this time, and unceremoniously took Pengyang County, and even uprooted the Qiankun Gang rudder in the city!
However, the battle of Pengyang was also Zhu Biao's only 'revenge' against the Qiankun Gang, and his soldiers were too tired. From the time of the attack on the northern front to the present, for nearly two months, they have been fighting every day and night, fighting and fighting, and they are on the verge of danger many times.
In Zhu Biao's previous life, people would call so-and-so an army a war machine, but the machine also needs to be maintained, and people need to take turns to rest and recuperate. Fighting for a long time and constantly breaking down even the strongest person will have a nervous breakdown.
The current Song army, after once again going through a difficult time, although the morale of the army is stable, but the morale is not high, and the fatigue has always hovered between 30~~40, even after the battle of Ziyang, the troops have been rested steadily, and there is no landing. This can only be said - the army is war-weary.
So, it's time to go back. Zhu Biao didn't want to make any more extraneous branches, the 'phenomenon' of war weariness of the troops was a great threat to him, and he should hurry back from Xingzhou to Kaizhou, which was the first thing.
The army went straight down to the southwest along Pengyang County, guarded by 10,000 cavalry, and every move in the surrounding thirty miles was under Zhu Biao's control, so the infantry in the car sometimes could not get off the carriage in the morning and afternoon, and the troops marched very fast.
The troops marched towards Kaizhou at a speed of nearly 200 miles a day. Xingzhou is not big, but Zhu Biao will enter Kaizhou in just seven days.
The connection with Yongxing was also restored, and after Deng Zhong's army failed to intercept Zhu Biao's troops, tens of thousands of Jin troops outside the city withdrew to Linhe County, and the siege of Yongxing was relieved. Although the Linhe Jin army at this moment has always maintained a certain threat to Yongxing, the road is clear!
The troops bypassed Linhe and walked Yonglong to Yongxing, and the moment they saw Yongxing City, not to mention the soldiers in the army. Even Zhu Biao himself felt a sense of relief from the heart in an instant.
It was a sense of complete peace of mind, a sense of security without the slightest threat.
Looking back on the two-month journey, in a word--it is not easy!
The king of Jin personally greeted the army at the city gate, and even greeted Zhu Biao. The first moment he saw Zhu Biao, he walked forward quickly. I couldn't help but choke tears in my eyes. "If it weren't for Zhu Shuai, Ji Gang would no longer have a royal city!"
If it weren't for Zhu Biao's efforts to turn the tide, Ji Gang would have been eating and waiting to die in Beijing now, or he hadn't gone to Beijing yet, but he was under the strict investigation of King Jin along the way, and he was worried......
Zhu Biao's face is naturally modest. But in the heart is very funny. King Jin is really 'Corporal Lixian', he doesn't even want to lose face, and he said such things in public.
Holding hands and entering the royal city, Ji Gang was completely treating Zhu Biao with an equal attitude. But it startled Zhu Biao. That's too high!
At night. Zhu Biao, who was full of alcohol, returned to the post house where he stayed in the city. A Liu Zhuo saw a face he never knew, dressed as a pro-soldier and appeared in Zhu Biao's room.
"The head of the house, the little one has been waiting in the city for two months, and no one has come from the north." This is a capable man under Zhu Ming. He is calm and calm, and he is not alarmed in case of chaos. If it hadn't been for Zhu Biao coming to Kaizhou, he would have been put outside by Zhu Ming to take charge of himself.
"Click......" Zhu Biao's fingers didn't feel like they were knocking on the table. Two months, two months is not enough time for Xu Wentao and Pang Liang to stretch the line from Youzhou to Kaizhou? It's not about laying a system network, it's just a line stretching out.
"Dou Bing. Send two people to Youzhou! ”
If the two-month line is not connected, it is equivalent to saying that the connection with the hometown has been cut off for two months. When he was fighting, Zhu Biao was thinking about the situation in Hedong, and now that he is free, he thinks even more. No, as soon as someone said this, he broke off contact for two months, and he was faintly anxious in his heart.
"Great. You have arranged everything in the house, and Tang Wang takes care of it, there will be no accidents, so you can wait with peace of mind. "In Feng Enjiang's mind, King Tang still wants his own marshal to help King Song, and the things he promised before will definitely be fulfilled. And as long as the Tang King can stand up in the Northern Han Dynasty, then the hometown of Hedong will not be able to go wrong.
Of course, Feng Enjiang can think of these Zhu Biao. But Hedong has his old mother, little sister, and pregnant wife, who cares about it, how can family affection be analyzed by conditioning?
"Alas......" Zhu Biao sighed.
At this time, hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, "Dashuai, the King of Jin sent a father-in-law to come." ”
"Oh?" Zhu Biao was stunned, there was already a reward when he feasted on the palace, why did he come again? But he walked quickly to the door, and as soon as he reached the courtyard, a white-faced and beardless eunuch entered the gate, accompanied by two little eunuchs and two maidservants.
"The slave has seen Zhu Shuai." The comer respectfully saluted Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao has seen this eunuch, he is the personal entourage of the King of Jin, surnamed Liu, and his status in the palace is not ordinarily high.
"Father-in-law Liu has tormented the young general." Zhu Biao is not short of courtesy. "I don't know ...... father-in-law"
"The night was long, and it was lonely and unbearable. The prince wished the handsome to spend a good day, and it was a pity that he specially selected two maids and gave the handsome ......"
"Come on, I've seen Zhu Shuai!"
Zhu Biao Spartan, looking at the two beauties......
====================== dividing line ========================
Dong'an County, Donglangguan.
It was a light day, and the Song army on the closed door removed the hemp rope tied with copper bells on the women's wall as usual, and hurriedly left a hundred and ten sentries who had changed the guard and went down to the city to go back to the room to rest.
"Big brother." On the upper floor, a recruit yawned, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and said to a veteran next to him boredly: "Look at the brothers on duty at night guards, four or five hundred people, large and small, coming and going. And I waited for the day shift, all of them were only more than 200 people, and they were divided into two shifts, what is the reason? ”
"Use your brain before you speak." The veteran rolled his eyes, sneered at the recruit, and said, "Look at you, you're also a clever boy on weekdays, why do you have a paste in your head." Think about it, our Donglang Pass is the first Xiongguan in Kaizhou, when the Five Kings Rebellion, 20,000 soldiers and horses once resisted the rebel army of more than 300,000 troops. If an enemy comes to attack, do you think that the enemy's head is as confused as you, and he will choose to attack in the daytime? ”
"Big brother is right." The recruit looked at the vast open land below the city, and suddenly said: "And even if there is an enemy attacking in the daytime, I can see it at a glance when I stand on the castle tower, and I don't expect the enemy to be so stupid." Hehe, it seems that I waited for the day shift, and I still picked up a safe bargain. ”
"That's true." Hearing this, the veteran also smiled and said, "It seems that you kid is also a spirited person, and you have the best life in this year." In the words of the talents, Mingzhe protects himself. ”
"My own father, mother, wife and children, I have to rely on myself to provide for them."
The recruits nodded and were taught. A quarter of an hour later, there was a cloud on the horizon, but the earth was still gray. After the changing of the guard Song Bing got used to it for a quarter of an hour, they all squinted their eyes again.
"Hey, big brother. The earth beneath the castle seemed to move. The recruit thought he was dazzled at first, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but when he opened them again, he was astonished to find a crossbow bolt coming straight at the door in front of him......
After a few screams, the gong on the castle tower sounded. In an instant, more than 200 natives stood up in the open space under the city wall of Donglang Pass, and as soon as these natives stood up, they kept rushing to the pass.
The natives in the second half of the country are all holding terrifying repeaters in their hands. They are the elite of the Quanzhou army led by Fu Yiyang, as well as the hundred good players selected from the six gates of the state during the period when the flag was silent.
Almost at the same time. Not far away, the ground cracked in an instant, and more than 10,000 Quanzhou troops stood out, and they roared and chrysalis. Shicai is still quiet and peaceful Donglang Pass, and it boils at this moment.
For the sake of this moment, those Jeonju troops who took the lead have suffered a lot. Last night they crawled slowly outside the pass under the cover of night, wrapped in sheets covered with loess, and because they were covered up, the guards who were on duty at night could not detect them. Then, after a long wait of several hours, they had to lie on the ground and remain motionless until the moment of attack in front of them. In the meantime, even if they have and urine, they can't make a little noise when they pull in the crotch of their pants.
The more than 100 natives who had been killed quickly took out the hook that had been prepared from their waists, skillfully turned it in their hands a few times, and threw it onto the city. These people are all masters of the six gates of the whole state, and it may be a little difficult to fly up to the eight-zhang high city pass, but if you have a hook in hand, it will be easy to turn over the pass.
After the hook flew up to the city, it immediately caused a panic in the city. There was a sonorous sound, and the garrison immediately cut the rope of the hook with a steel knife, but the top of the hook and rope of this kind of climbing the city fell a section of iron chains, and they were all wrapped in raw cowhide, how could they cut the ground with three or two knives?
Several of the defenders stretched their heads out of the battlements and drew their bows and arrows, but before he could fully open his bows, several crossbow arrows shot them down the city. There were at least fifty sharpshooters under the city walls, but the Song soldiers on duty above the city head were only a hundred in total, and now some of them had died, less than a hundred. The disproportionate fighting put them in a completely passive situation even on top of a Xiongguan like Donglang Pass.
