Chapter 54: Liu Yuanxiang, King of Lingnan?
In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Kui took Tang Niu, Zhou Yuan and his generals to lead 5,000 soldiers out of the city and meet Liang Teng outside the imperial city.
After counting the soldiers, Zhou Xuan handed over the army to Liang Teng, and according to the agreement, there were 1,000 taels of gold and 5,000 stones of military rations.
Ning Ze, on behalf of Liang Teng, personally presented the unicorn jade seal to Zhou Xuan.
After the transaction was completed, Zhou Yi immediately returned to the camp with the unicorn jade seal. Liang Teng also led 9,000 soldiers and horses, plus 2,000 prisoners, a total of 11,000 people, with supplies and retreated, moving in the direction of Jinzhou.
After a long journey, the army finally arrived near Tong County after a long journey of two months.
Ning Ze offered advice to Liang Teng: "Supervising the post, now that the cities of Tong County, Dan County, and Wuduo County are empty, you can first deceive the defenders and take the city!
He is thinking about Liang Teng, after all, the Liang family's base has been lost, and now he must attack the city when he goes back.
In the past few months, I am afraid that the strength of the city has become quite strong. It will be extremely easy to take the three county towns without a leader first, recruit troops here, and counterattack Huajun after it grows stronger.
It's just that Liang Teng shook his head and sighed: "As a son of man, I need to send my father home for burial, and it is not appropriate to raise a sword at this moment." Deal with the aftermath of your father's death, and then make a decision!"
Ning Zexin said that your family is gone, how can you deal with it? But when you say it to your face, you can't explain how you know.
So he turned his head to persuade the four brothers of Liang Kai, hoping that they would persuade Liang Teng to send troops to take the three counties first.
It's just that filial piety comes first, and the four brothers of Liang Kai also think that their grandfather must be buried at home, and it is not appropriate to raise swords at this time.
There was no choice but to bypass Tong County and Dan County with the army, and finally return to the Hua County range.
Arriving at Danhua Pass leading to Dan County, and finding that the guards on the gate did not know him at all, Liang Teng stepped forward in confusion: "Where is Zhu Xiao?
The general snorted coldly: "I am Lei Tong, the general guarding the pass under the account of the commander of the cavalry, who are you?"
"Riding Captain Liu Bao?!" Liang Teng was stunned when he heard this, "What's the matter?"
"Bastard thing!" Liang Yun stepped forward and scolded, "Huajun is controlled by our Liang family, and you don't know the master?"
"The Liang family?" Lei Tong said with a smile when he heard this, "The Liang family was exterminated a few months ago, and now Huajun is the world of the King of Lingnan!
"What?!" Liang Teng only felt dizzy, "Liu Bao is in charge of Huajun, and my Liang family has been exterminated?"
"Wait and leave quickly...... No, don't go!" Lei Tong sneered, "If you take it down and give it to the Captain, you will be reused!"
At the sound of an order, the gate of the pass opened.
Lei Tong led three thousand defenders to rush out, and said with a smile in front of the battle: "Liang thief is killed!"
"Bastard!" Liang Teng was furious, and slapped his horse and raised his gun to meet the battle.
The two clashed several times before the battle, and Liang Teng suddenly returned the pistol and directly stabbed Lei Tong to death.
The defenders of the 3,000 passes in the rear saw the commander die in battle, and there was chaos.
Ning Ze immediately rode forward and shouted, "If you don't want to die, surrender immediately." ”
"Kill, kill ......" Liang Kai immediately took the lead in shouting, and tens of thousands of soldiers shouted one after another.
The defenders of the pass were frightened, and immediately five or six hundred people knelt down and surrendered, after all, the Liang family still had influence in Huajun, and the others turned around and ran towards the pass.
Of course, Liang Teng would not let the other party succeed, and immediately waved his troops to pursue, without giving the other party a chance to close the gate, rushed into the pass and attacked fiercely, annihilating more than 300 enemy troops, capturing more than 1,000 people, and the rest all fled.
After seizing Danhua Pass, Liang Teng and his four sons did not look good, but they didn't expect that after going out for a few months, Huajun quietly changed the owner. And the other party controls it very strictly, if he didn't come back here, he wouldn't know that the county town was occupied.
And what they care about the most is what Lei Tong said just now, the Liang family was wiped out by Liu Bao, isn't it true that all the clansmen and relatives have been killed?
The repeated blows made Liang Teng, Liang Kai, Liang Jing, Liang Yun, and Liang Shun's hearts extremely heavy.
"Supervising the post, Huajun is occupied by Liu Bao, and the deserters must report to him. Liu Bao knew that our army was coming, and he would send a large army to meet it. Ning Ze suggested, "It's better to abandon Danhua Pass first, retreat to defraud Danjun, recruit troops and horses to take down Tongjun and Wuduo, accumulate strength with the land of the three counties, and then find a good opportunity to attack Huajun." The city of Danjun is high, and even if Liu Bao leads his troops to attack, he can only return in vain. ”
"Arsenal Order, I know you mean well!" Liang Teng sighed, "However, the revenge of the extermination of the clan cannot be avenged! Not to mention that my father will also go back to Huajun for burial." I want to lead an army to attack Huajun and fight Liu Bao to the death! If I win, I will sacrifice him in front of the grave of my clansmen; if I am defeated, I will meet my clansmen underground! Huajun will have him without me, and I will have him without him! Kai'er!"
"The child is here!" Liang Kai immediately responded.
"You have to leave the last bloodline for the Liang family," Liang Teng turned around and said solemnly, "Divide 5,000 troops for your father and give your four brothers, and leave here with the arsenal order." I entrust my four unsuccessful sons to you! I don't ask them to make much profit, but I want to keep my life safe! If you can conquer the three counties, you will assist them, and if you cannot conquer them, please also take them to the princes who can protect them. I'm going to Hwasan County alone......"
"Father, I want to go with you!" Liang Kai said hurriedly.
"Father, I'll go together!!" Liang Jing, Liang Yun, and Liang Shun said in unison.
"Arsenal Order, these 5,000 soldiers and horses were borrowed by you, and now they will be handed back to you!" Liang Kai turned his head to Ning Ze and said, "My father and son are different from that Liu Bao, and they are bound to go to Huajun to fight to the death!
"Don't leave it here!!" Liang Jing, Liang Yun, and Liang Shun followed the eldest brother and bowed to Ning Ze.
"Why are you doing this?" Liang Teng looked at the four sons in front of him with a sad expression.
"Father, our father and son live and die together!" Liang Kai said loudly.
"Yes, live and die together!!" the three younger brothers responded in unison.
"Good, good...... It is worthy of my Liang Teng's species! In this case, the arsenal order, let's say goodbye!" Liang Teng turned to Ning Ze, "If he can get revenge, he will meet again one day!"
Liang Teng's father and son were five, and sure enough, they left 5,000 Liangzhou soldiers and marched towards Huajun.
"Arsenal Order, what should we do?" Seeing Liang Teng's army leave Danhua Pass, a lieutenant from behind came over and asked.
"What's going on?" Ning Ze looked at the direction in which Liang Teng's army left, frowning slightly, "Without Liang Teng's father and son, it would be impossible to deceive the gates of Dan County, Tong County and Wuduo County, people don't know me." It is estimated that 5,000 soldiers will not be enough to storm the city, and besides, my foundation is in Huajun......"
"Arsenal Order?"
"Pass my general order and set off for Huajun!" Ning Ze snapped his fingers.
"Yes!"
Liang Teng's soldiers and horses went all the way forward, not knowing that Ning Ze was leading the troops behind him, keeping a distance.
Sure enough, the defenders of Danhua Pass fled back to Huajun and immediately reported to Liu Bao, saying that Liang Teng led his troops to kill.
Liu Bao immediately gathered 20,000 soldiers and horses and arrayed them outside Huajun City.
Knowing that Liang Teng had returned with his troops, the King of Lingnan also hurried over and stood on the city wall a little nervously.
When I saw about five or six thousand soldiers and horses in the distance, I was a little relieved. After all, there are at least 30,000 soldiers and horses on their side, 20,000 outside the city, and more than 10,000 inside the city, all of which have been recruited in the past few months, and the troops are absolutely superior.
Liang Teng led his troops to the outside of Huajun City, and lined up opposite Liu Baojun.
"Liu Bao, where are my Liang clan now?" Liang Teng raised his gun and roared, "Our army is recruiting thieves, but you are secretly seizing the city, it is really hateful!"
Liu Bao laughed loudly: "Isn't it evil to wait for you to trick me out of the city that day, and let me almost die at the hands of the bandits in Pangli Mountain? Today, there are capable people living in it! You Liang family fish and meat people, the people's hearts have been lost, what face is there to make noise here? Now that the king of Lingnan is sitting in Huajun, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and they are benevolent lords!"
"Nonsense!" Liang Teng said angrily, "Ask you again, where are my Liang clan people now?!"
"Now that the entire Huajun is under my control, what do you say?" Liu Bao sneered, "Now Huajun is no longer the land of the Liang family!"
"Liu Bao traitor, take your life!" Liang Teng was furious, and rushed out with a gun.
"Afraid that you won't make it?!" Liu Bao was not afraid of fighting, and the two clashed back and forth for more than ten rounds. Yin Li in the rear was afraid that Liu Bao would lose, so he immediately ordered the whole army to charge.
The four brothers Liang Kai, Liang Jing, Liang Yun, and Liang Shun also waved their troops, and the two sides fell into a fierce battle.
It's just that the father and son of the Liang family have few soldiers after all, and except for Liang Teng, the sons are not high in force, and in the face of Liu Bao's 20,000 soldiers and horses, they gradually can't resist.
However, the father and son of the Liang family did not flinch, and tried their best to kill Liu Bao, but they put themselves in a dangerous situation.
Liu Bao ordered the Liang family father and son to be captured alive, and prepared to take them back to the city to be slowly disposed of.
At this time, a soldier and horse suddenly appeared in the distance, moving quickly towards the city of Huajun, and the smoke and dust were billowing behind it, as if thousands of troops and horses were rushing towards it.
Liu Bao was taken aback, and he couldn't care about the Liang family's father and son, so he quickly ordered the troops to withdraw back to the city for the time being. Because he didn't see Liang Chun, he thought that the army was in the rear.
Seeing Liu Bao retreat into the city, Liang Teng turned around and saw the dust flying all over the sky, and he didn't know where the army was coming, so he was also frightened, and hurriedly took his four sons to be vigilant.
It was only when I saw Ning Ze appear and those familiar flags in the rear that I understood. It's just not clear how he managed to create thousands of troops.
Ning Ze led his troops to the front of the battle, glanced at Liu Bao and the others who had gone up to the city wall, and his eyes fell on the handsome boy next to him.
"Arsenal Order, why are you here?" Liang Teng hurriedly asked, "And what's going on next?"
"Oh! I let the soldiers run around on horseback and drag the branches, creating a dusty situation as if there were thousands of horses, and scare them first! But you must retreat with me at once, lest the other party see it and rush out to chase them. ”
"This matter has nothing to do with you, why are you ......" Liang Teng looked at him and sighed. A long sigh.
"Superintendent, Huajun also has my home!" Ning Ze smiled and continued to look at the city wall.
"I didn't expect Liu Bao to invite the King of Lingnan, it's a little bad!" Liang Teng looked up, "This prince is famous and loved in Huajun, and he is the bloodline of the first emperor......"
"Lingnan King?" Ning Ze frowned, because the personal attributes he saw were completely incorrect.
