Chapter 247: The King of the World (10)

He led the cavalry to continue south, and collided with Hu Maozhen's troops again at Yuxia Pass, this time the two armies did not fight, and Hu Maozhen carefully led the troops to flee into the distance, as if trying to avoid conflict.

These words made Ling Jingyang's eyes light up, this high-ranking soldier Jiangbei looks stupid, and his behavior after sending out the army does not look like a mediocre talent, he looked at the Wenchen generals present, only Li Rufeng, Lao Mantou, and Dong Daqi are from the generals of the Dashun Army, and the others are all generals of the Ming Army, he wants to find someone who can talk to Gao Jie, go to Lu'an Prefecture and meet Gao Jie for a while,

Leng Rutie seemed to see Ling Jingyang's thoughts, and said to him: "Dudu, why don't you let me go to Licheng and meet Gao Jie for a while, maybe I can turn the conflict into a jade silk." ”

Ling Jingyang flatly refused: "No, Commander Leng is one of the main generals of our army, if you go to Licheng, if you are killed by Gao Jie, won't you cut off your arm?" ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, fell into silence, at this time, Mi Shengguang stood up and asked Ling Jingyang, it is most appropriate for him to go, he is not an official army, and he is also a middle-level official in the officialdom, let him take the gold and silver treasures to visit Gao Jie in Licheng, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

This is a good way, and everyone also thinks it is feasible, Ling Jingyang and the old steamed bun said: "Go, give Mi Master 5,000 taels of silver, and 500 stones of grain and grass." ”

Everyone was surprised by Ling Jingyang's generosity, and Ling Jingyang said to Mi Shengguang again: "Mi Shengguang, this is a mission of nine deaths, if you can come back alive, I will go to Your Majesty to ask for a third-grade master for you." ”

Mi Shengguang was moved to kneel down for Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang hurriedly helped him up, and continued with him: "You go to Gao Jie's military camp, after seeing him, don't be arrogant, just say that Your Majesty understands General Gao coming from afar, send some silver and grain and grass, and give General Gao this month's military salary, if General Gao is willing to come, Your Majesty will enshrine Fenzhou as General Gao's station." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Luofu and other generals looked at each other, Fenzhou can be said to be the rear of Ling Jingyang, most of the troops, warehouses, and population are in Fenzhou, if Fenzhou is given to Gao Jie, won't they have no base?

"Ladies and gentlemen, Gao Jie will not come to Fenzhou, he will wait and see in Lu'an Prefecture."

Ling Jingyang sees through human nature

, Gao Jie is so shrewd, he will not be stupid to go to Fenzhou, put the troops in the Dashun army and the Chongzhen army, that will only die faster, the only thing he can't figure out is why Gao Jie is so stupid to obey the orders of Hongguang Junchen and lead the troops to attack Shanxi.

He once again emphasized that when Mi Shengguang went to Lu'an Prefecture and visited Gao Jie, he tried to lower his posture as much as possible and learn more about Gao Jie.

Mi Shengguang walked away with a resolute face, and when Ling Jingyang went out, he said again: "Master Mi, if Gao Jie hurts you, the governor of Pontus will send troops to destroy Gao Jie's entire army." ”

With Ling Jingyang's words, Mi Shengguang held infinite confidence, took the silver, grain and grass that Ling Jingyang had prepared for him, and went to Lu'an Prefecture under the escort of a hundred soldiers from the Iron Fist Battalion.

Everyone also admires Mi Shengguang's courage, especially Wang Mu, he was born in the imperial examination, and he looks down on Mi Shengguang, who is an alternative from a businessman to an official halfway, in his subconscious, Mi Shengguang is just a profit-seeking businessman, and supporting Ling Jingyang is also speculating, after being appointed as his deputy, he is even more bent on drilling into the eyes of money, and colluding with the guy named Lin Erle.

Before today's meeting, Mi Shengguang and Lin Erle were still collecting taxes in the villages near Yuci City, and their behavior made Wang Mu very disgusted, the common people were poor and poor, and they had to be exploited by these two people, he was very contradictory as a scholar.

At present, the military struggle with the Qing army is very cruel, not only the competition between soldiers and soldiers, but also the power behind, among which silver is indispensable, without silver, there is no military salary, without military salary, who will give you your life, where does the silver come from, either to rob it, or to collect taxes.

If you want to go far, it is obviously unrealistic to only rely on robbery, and one day the people who are robbed will rise up, and the only thing left is to collect taxes from the hands of the common people in order to maintain a steady stream of vitality.

But he couldn't bear to see the ordinary people who were about to lose their lives, and he had to tighten his belt to exploit Mi Shengguang and Lin Erle, but all the unpleasantness and disdain disappeared at this moment today.

Mi Shengguang is also so kind, Wang Mu's heart quietly changed, after Mi Shengguang went out of the city, he asked Ling Jingyang to increase the number of escort troops, although the iron fist soldiers are the elite of the whole army, but a hundred people is too little, the Qing army or other rogues,

Gather hundreds of cavalry, and a single charge can snatch up grain, grass and silver.

Ling Jingyang thought about it, so he asked the cavalry corps to escort Mi Shengguang to Lu'an Prefecture, and the other generals returned to the garrison to protect Yuci City, and at the same time, Ling Jingyang also sent the combat information of the Dashun army and the Qing army to Jiang Xuan.

......

Jiang Hao in Taiyuan City, all day long training soldiers, hoarding grain and grass, the Qing army attacked Datong Mansion from two directions, the Taiyuan Mansion he was stationed in was not within the scope of the Qing army's attack, but he was not a fool, Datong Mansion was defeated by the Qing army, and Taiyuan Mansion could not be left alone.

He thought that there was a natural danger in Yanmen Pass, which could at least interrupt the Qing army's plan to attack Taiyuan City. He ordered a section to be stationed in Yanmen Pass to prevent the Qing army from capturing Datong Mansion and driving straight down to Taiyuan City.

But who to let go to Yanmen Pass, Jiang Xuan thought about it, Jiang Xuan was in Licheng, and the others went, I was afraid that I would go today, and tomorrow the Qing army would call, so I would vote, so I had to let my brother Jiang Rang lead the troops to garrison Yanmen Pass.

Jiang Rang was also for the sake of the family to continue, forced to take 10,000 soldiers and three months of grain and grass, rushed to Yanmen Pass, Yanmen Pass in the previous several wars, the wall was seriously damaged, Jiang Rang arrived at Yanmen Pass, ordered half of the soldiers to repair the city wall, half of the soldiers became garrison, to prevent the Qing army from raiding, fortunately, the Qing army ignored the Ming army of Yanmen Pass, and attacked Datong Mansion wholeheartedly.

The Qing army's attack on Datong Mansion was very violent, Tian Jianxiu and the party were invincible, and they were defeated and retreated, but fortunately, Liu Fangliang of the left battalion was stationed near Taiyuan Mansion, and reinforced, Datong Mansion was reinforced, and the Qing army's offensive was contained, but it also suffered heavy losses.

After the Qing army's attack was blocked, it was a very good opportunity, Jiang Hao sent troops to Datong Mansion at this time, and there was a high probability of defeating the Qing army with low morale, but Jiang Huang was reluctant to let the precious troops go to Datong Mansion and the Qing army to consume, and missed the opportunity in hesitation, allowing the Qing army to readjust the deployment of troops, and under the leadership of Azig and Wu Sangui, the Hongyi cannon was used to open the gate of Datong City.

The Qing army rushed into the city, to fight more and less, the Dashun army lost everything, forced to break through, Datong City was lost, and the Dashun army in other places also retreated, the Qing army pursued relentlessly, within ten days the Qing army captured all the cities in the central and eastern parts of Datong Mansion, only Liu Fangliang and Tian Jianxiu and others remained, leading the remnants of the army to defeat and die in the west of Datong Mansion to defend Weiyuan City and other places, barely blocking the Qing army to continue the attack.
