readx;? Chapter 6: Preparations (4)

Six thousand soldiers and horses are not much, but compared to more than ninety percent of the ropes in Taihang Mountain, they can already be called a behemoth that no one can provoke. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info plus Han Chongyun, Ning Ziming and Yang Guangyi, on the night of the big break of the group of thieves, they did break a lot of notoriety. Therefore, some green forest cottages located on the periphery of the west side of Taihang Mountain found that the official army was driving towards them, and immediately and decisively ordered to abandon the village. Carrying the gold and silver that had been plundered for many years, he led the minions of all sizes and walked towards the east without hesitation. Or go to the other side of Taihang Mountain, in Hebei Province other green forest peers. Or simply change your name and surname, and seek a career under the command of a prince in a newly emerging place somewhere. Anyway, in the past two months, in order to compete for the hearts and minds of the people of Hebei, the Great Han State and the Liao State have used all kinds of means. Anyone who has the ability to occupy a state or a county, no matter what dirty deeds he has done in the past, as long as he is willing to take the initiative to defect to either of the Han and Liao countries, he will inevitably have a prominent official hat. (Note 1)

There are also a few green forest skulls who do not believe in evil, and they have to rely on the convenience of being familiar with the terrain to call them the catties and taels of the Tiger Wing Army. In the end, there is no doubt that they all ended in a fiasco. Although Han Chongyun and Ning Ziming and others were young, they were not carried away by the successive victories at all. In his heart, he firmly remembered the instructions he had thought about before setting out on the expedition, and would rather give up the opportunity to win quickly, and play steadily and steadily in a step-by-step manner, rather than leaving any opportunity for the opponent to take advantage of. Relying on his many advantages in terms of supply, equipment, troops, and morality, he crushed his opponents one by one.

Seeing that the opponent was getting weaker and weaker, and his side was getting stronger and stronger, the soldiers gradually felt a little slack in their hearts. They all feel that if the current situation continues, it may not take more than three months for everyone to plow all the bandits in Zezhou. Then you can go back to the city and live a few days of peace. Unexpectedly, before everyone could figure out how to spend the bounty in their hands, a few fast horses broke into the gate of the barracks like meteors.

"General Han, we want to see General Han, help, help-" Behind the horseman, with the unique red flag of the Han army's messengers, a somersault fell down, knelt on the ground and wailed loudly.

The 100 people on duty did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered people to help up the messengers who had been tired and scattered, and carried them to the Chinese army. When they saw Han Chongyun, the main master, the messengers cried louder and louder, lying on the ground, their heads like pounding garlic, "General Han, General Han helps." Huaizhou, the city of Huaizhou was surrounded by bandits. The fathers and villagers in the city, the fathers and villagers in the city, if you don't save them, it's all over!"

"Where are you from, what's going on?What about the Heyang Army, where did the Heyang Army go?" Han Chongyun was confused when he heard this, and asked with a frown. The other party's body was covered with blood and mud, and at first glance, he broke through many dangers and obstacles before he was lucky enough to arrive at his own military camp. But Huaizhou belongs to the territory of Meng Jingyu, the envoy of Heyang Jiedu, and is not under the jurisdiction of Wu Shengjun at all. If you rashly cross the border to suppress bandits without the permission of the imperial court, whether you win or lose, I am afraid that you will get into trouble later.

"My family Meng, Meng Shuai was ordered by the imperial court to escort grain and grass to the Xiangzhou camp two months ago. Several messengers gasped as they scrambled to quickly replenish, "Major General, the Major General was leading his family to hunt outside the city the day before yesterday, and suddenly a group of robbers came out from behind. Without saying a word, I first injured my major general with a random arrow. Then he followed the footsteps of the young general and besieged Qinyang City!"

"So ruthless?!Can you be sure that the bandits are here??Isn't there some misunderstanding in the middle!" Han Chongyun's brows jumped, instinctively feeling that this matter was too strange.

Unlike Zezhou and Luzhou, in the past ten years, as a buffer zone between the Later Jin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, no one has the heart to govern, and finally completely degenerated into a bandit den. Because Huaizhou is close to Bianliang, although the bandits are not extinct, the order is one of the best in the entire Central Plains. It was a bit strange that a group of bandits suddenly appeared here, and they still had the courage to besiege the city, at least, Han Chongyun himself had never heard of a green forest skull, and migrated there.

When several messengers heard this, they immediately burst into tears, "It's not a misunderstanding, it's not a misunderstanding, my family, my family's major general, my family's major general is injured in the chest, even if he can be saved, he will not be able to leave the sickbed for the rest of his life! If it is a misunderstanding between colleagues, who would dare to do such a ruthless hand? If it is a misunderstanding, who would dare to openly kill people and slaughter villages outside the city in broad daylight?!"

"Murder and slaughter village?" Han Chongyun's hand tightened, and the saber on his waist was pulled out of a large section. Although the bandits in the Taihang Mountains have done a lot of evil, they will not easily kill the people of an entire village. Those who dare to take such cruel measures against the people either have an uncommon enmity with the Meng family in Huaizhou, or they are inhumane barbarians. At present, whether it is the Khitans, the Tubo people or the Dangxiang people, they are thousands of miles away from Huaizhou.

They first coerced Liu Tingshi to sacrifice the city, but Liu Tingshi refused, so they arrested all the people in the two villages near the west gate and slaughtered them in front of the soldiers in the city. They also said, and said that this was just a warning, if Qinyang City did not open the door and surrender within three days, they, they would slaughter a village every other day!" "General Han, your men are close to Huaizhou. If you don't go, the 200,000 fathers and villagers inside and outside Qinyang City won't be able to survive!"

"Who are they fighting and who is the leader of the team? What is the scale, how many soldiers and horses are there? You won't just run to me to bring rescue troops, will you? The next Hezhong Jiedu envoy, as well as the Bianliang and Gui German troops on the south bank......" Han Chongyun was furious when he heard this, and continued to investigate the root cause with the urge to kill.

"No flag! The size of the team is not very large, at most seven or eight thousand people. But, but there are a lot of them in the team, and many of them are Khitan Hulu!" A messenger was asked anxiously, glaring at the red-eyed

"It could be the Khitans, or it could be the Khitans pretending to be robbers. We haven't figured it out!" Another messenger was afraid of frightening Han Chongyun, so he hurriedly added, "The emperor is personally driving, and there is only a forbidden army in Bianliang City, and you can't leave the city without a holy decree." At present, the German army is following Gao Shuai to attack Yedu, and those who stay in the old camp are all auxiliaries, and it is impossible to rescue Huaizhou. As for Hezhong, Zhao Jiedu in Hezhong was summoned by the emperor to his side, and there is no one in the army to call the shots, and there is not a single soldier!"

"General Han is gracious, General Han is gracious! It's not that we have to force you, really, I really can't find anyone else! If you refuse to send troops, hundreds of thousands of people in Huaizhou will have to be slaughtered!" After hearing this, the rest of the messengers lay on the ground and kowtowed continuously. After a while, blood flowed from the corners of his forehead, and tears flowed all over his face.

Although Han Chongyun is far more mature than his peers, he has not lost his good nature after all, and he cried pitifully when he listened to the messengers. I couldn't help but touch my hand towards the arrow on the handsome case. Seeing this, Yang Guangyi stepped forward tightly and blocked it with his body, and then asked loudly: "You said that you are from Huaizhou, do you have a letter for help?"

"Yes, yes!" the messenger leader agreed, pulling out a sweat-soaked mulberry envelope from his bosom and holding it above his head with both hands.

Han Chongyun took the letter, stood with Yang Guangyi, and examined it repeatedly. The characters are standard faces, although they are written in a hurry, the words and sentences are extremely neat. Including the urgency of the situation in Huaizhou, the reason for asking the Tiger Wing Army to send troops, and the compensation for grain and grass after sending troops, many other issues are clearly written. At a glance, people know that the person who wrote the letter is an old official who is familiar with the rules of officialdom, not a master under the command of a thief and a cob. At the end of the letter, there is the autograph of Meng Yuangao, the son of Meng Jingyu, the envoy of the Heyang Festival, and it is stamped with the official seal of the commander of the pro-army in the Heyang Ya. (Note 2)

The two exchanged glances with each other, and then prepared to agree to send troops to the rescue. At this moment, in the queue of military generals, there were suddenly a few low coughs, "Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!" Turning his head to look, he saw that Ning Ziming, the commander of the Huozi battalion, was bent over, covering his chest with his hands, coughing breathlessly.

"Ziming, what's wrong with you?" Han Chongyun's brows jumped slightly, and he immediately gave up the idea of sending troops immediately, and strode towards the source of the coughing sound.

"General Ning, General Ning, what's wrong with you. Is it an arrow wound again, Lang Zhong, come on, hurry up and invite Lang Zhong!" Although Yang Guangyi still ignored Ning Zi Carita, at the critical moment, the reaction speed was definitely fast enough. also pretended to rush in front of Ning Ziming, blocking the envoy's gaze with his body, and roaring loudly.

"Arrow wounds, arrow wounds, my chest, my chest, it hurts!" Ning Ziming comprehended, winked at Han Chongyun and Yang Guangyi, and fell headlong.

Han Chongyun's hand was sick, and he immediately grabbed him from mid-air, and at the same time turned his body sideways and ordered loudly, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and invite Lang Zhong to come!" General Ning's arrow wound has recurred. ”

"Yes, quick, please Langzhong!"

"Quick, go and call Lang Zhong. Hurry up and prepare cough soup!" The generals were stunned for a moment, and quickly understood the problem. They all pretended to be busy, and left a few messengers cold, and no one paid attention to them anymore!

After a while, chickens and dogs jumped, and finally waited for Lang Zhong to come and carry Ning Ziming's soldiers away. Han Chongyun's mentality also completely regained his calm, walked to the side of several messengers, sighed, and said apologetically: "Alas, you get up first, Han needs to carefully check with the brothers before he can make a final decision!"

"General Han, Kai Grace. You can't afford to delay any longer!!' the messengers heard this, and their faces were filled with despair. While wailing, he kept prostrating.

Han Chongyun's face was full of unbearable, but he shook his head very firmly, "Get up, get up and speak." It's not that I'm perfunctory to you, a few of you have seen it before, Han Mou's general here is seriously injured, and if he sends troops in a hurry, his morale will inevitably be greatly damaged. Not only will it not save Qinyang, but it will increase the arrogance of thieves even more. But rest assured, as long as General Ning's physical condition improves slightly, the Huwei Army will immediately send troops. No more delays!!"

Note 1: This is a historical fact, Liu Zhiyuan relied on the means of "people's war" to force the Khitans to return north, but the overall strength of the Later Han Dynasty was far inferior to that of the Liao State. Therefore, they are trying their best to win over the heroes located at the junction of Han and Liao. Due to civil strife, the Liao State was temporarily unable to go south again, so it also adopted the same method to show goodwill to the local heroes on the border. There is a man named Sun Fang who admonished the green forest, who was first named the envoy of the festival by the Liao State, but he was unwilling to be dispatched by the Liao State, and once again abandoned the official and entered the mountains as a bandit. Then he took advantage of the Liao country's retreat to the north and robbed an empty city to return to Han. He was immediately named the envoy of the Yiwu Army by Liu Zhiyuan. This person later had prosperous official fortunes, and was given the title of Taishi after his death.

Note 2: The pro-army of the Yanai and the pro-soldier team of the Jiedu envoy are generally commanded by the eldest son of the adult, which is called the Yanai Army, or the Yanai Pro-Army. Over time, the term Yanai referred specifically to the sons of high-ranking military generals. Such as Gao Yanei, who was beaten by Lin Chong.
