Zhu Long understood that Wei Dingguo was envious, jealous and hateful - why was Lao Tzu not under Gao Lian, or it would be appropriate to be a commander.

He comforted: "Old Wei, you will do a good job in Zhujiajun in the future, I will reward and punish clearly, treat everyone equally, and I will never be like Song Ting!" ”

Wei Dingguo looked at the generals present, Zhu Jiajun is like a cloud, all of them are better than himself, and if he wants to get ahead, I am afraid it will be difficult. He sighed inwardly and sat down in frustration.

Hua Rong said and analyzed: "In this way, there are at least 4,000 officers and soldiers in Gaotang Prefecture, and if we want to attack it, I'm afraid it will be difficult!" ”

The generals were silent, and they all knew that what Hua Rong said was true. The Zhujia army, which is less than 3,000, wants to defeat the city defended by 4,000 officers and soldiers, and there are 8,000 officers and soldiers behind him, which is simply impossible.

"Therefore, we must defeat Gao Lian on the opposite side head-on in order to continue to move forward and embark on the journey home!" Zhu Long said categorically: "And we must fight quickly, if the nearby state capital sends troops to besiege us, we will be in danger!" Give Gao Lian a war letter now, and ask him to fight tomorrow! ”

In the official camp of Gaotang Prefecture, Gao Lian is losing his temper, because today Zhu Long swaggered to visit the camp, he sent a thousand cavalry to chase and kill, but the main will be shot, the whole army was defeated, and fled in the wilderness, eight people of the Zhu family army, chasing and killing thousands of officers and soldiers, it is really a great shame!

This time, when he learned that Zhu Jiajun had crossed the border, he was very happy and wanted to capture Zhu Long alive and escort him to Jingshi, making a great contribution.

Although he relied on the support of his brother Gao Yu to become a dignified member of a state, but he was not a waste of eating, drinking, and waiting for death, he thought that he had the qualifications of a famous general, trained soldiers day and night, and selected 300 strong warriors from Shandong, Shanxi, Hebei, Sichuan, Shaanxi and other places, all of whom were strong in martial arts, and were called "flying gods".

He was ready to rely on his strong soldiers to exterminate the Zhu family army and capture Zhu Long alive, but he got a bad news first - Zhu Long killed his eldest brother Yin Tianci!

Now he has one more reason - revenge!

He was about to convene his generals to discuss the military situation, when suddenly someone outside asked to see him.

"Come in!" Gao Lian could hear that it was the voice of his subordinate commander Yu Zhi.

"My subordinates meet Lord Zhizhou!" Yu Zhibi said respectfully.

In Gaotang Prefecture, Gao Lian has absolute authority, and no one dares to play yin and yang with him. First, everyone knows that Gao Lian has a deep background, and he is the younger brother of Gao Taiwei. The most important thing is that high incorruptibility can fight for everyone's interests.

Other state capitals generally have only one seven-rank capital supervisor, and some only have an eight-rank regimental training envoy or promotion jurisdiction, and only the highest military attache of a large county is the six-rank capital commander.

But there are as many as four commanders in Gaotang Prefecture! This is simply the gospel of the Gaotang Prefecture army, the promotion space has expanded all of a sudden, and many generals regard Gao Lian as a reborn parent.

And he likes to dance with guns and sticks, has a market habit, and can mingle with the officers, unlike those literati who know the state and despise martial arts, which makes him more loved by the army generals.

Therefore, Yu Zhi's respect is from the heart.

"What are you looking for me?" Gao Lian glanced at him and asked lightly.

Yu Zhi presented a piece of paper, "Zhu Long sent someone to send a letter of war, agreeing to fight tomorrow!" ”

Gao Lian took the letter and looked at it, and laughed and said: "Okay, I'm worried that I can't destroy them in one fell swoop, they want to kill themselves, God help me!" Come on, go and invite the two generals, Xue Yuanhui and Wen Wenbao, to come and discuss the military situation! ”

Suddenly, he let out a long sigh, "Hey, it's a pity that General Cheng was shot by the enemy general today, and he hurt me!" ”

Yu Zhi hurriedly comforted: "At the moment of the great enemy, adults should take care of their bodies and don't be too sad!" If General Cheng knew that the adults were so affectionate to him, he would definitely smile at Jiuquan, even though he was still glorious in death! ”

Gao Lian nodded with satisfaction, admiring his empathetic subordinates.

After a while, Xue Yuanhui and Wen Wenbao came, bowed and saluted, "The last general will meet your lord!" ”

Gao Lian sat on the wide Taishi chair above, bowed slightly, and said, "Two generals, please sit!" Then I wish the dragon to fight tomorrow, and you must fight bravely, report to the officials, and report to the people! ”

The three commanders hurriedly stood up and said righteously: "We must be under the wise leadership of the Lord, keep in mind the mission, fight bravely, and fight bravely to defend the Great Song Dynasty and be loyal to the Lord!" ”

Gao Lian was very satisfied, and said, "This is very good! So tell me how you should set up tomorrow? ”

"It's all up to the adults to strategize, and where the lord's sword is pointed, we will rush to! Even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, there is no hesitation! ”

Gao Lian said confidently: "That's good! Tomorrow, we will leave 2,000 infantry to defend the camp, and 6,000 troops will go out with me, and we will use the dignified array and the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai to destroy the thief army, capture the thief, and avenge my eldest brother Xue-no, be loyal to the court, and share worries for Your Majesty! ”

The three generals were moved: "My lord is dedicated to the country, and the last general and others are very impressed!" ”

"I will see your performance, the one who bravely kills the enemy is my good brother, and he will naturally be promoted to the rank of knight, but whoever dares to fight and drag our army back, I will make him regret coming to this world, I will do what I say!" Gao Lian's cold gaze swept over their faces, sending chills down their backs.

The next day, the sky was overcast, the day was faint, the grass was broken, and the earth was bleak.

The official army and the Zhu family army met in the wilderness, and the two sides did not rush up and slash indiscriminately, but slowly approached in formation, and finally stopped the confrontation and looked for fighters.

Zhu Long stood in front of the formation, Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Bian Xiang, and Bao Xu were surrounded by four people.

The strength of the Zhu family army was only 3,000 people, and Zhu Long also left Lu Fang, Zeng Mi, and Wei Dingguo to lead 500 infantry to guard the family and property in the camp, so only 1,100 infantry and 1,400 cavalry went into battle, totaling 2,500 people, and the troops were obviously weak.

Lu Zhishen and Wu Song led the infantry phalanx in the center, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Ou Peng, and Ma Lin led 500 Xuanwu cavalry on the left flank, Shi Wengong, Su Ding, and the four brothers of the Zeng family led 400 Zeng Jiajing cavalry on the right flank, and Zhu Hu and Qin Ming led 500 cavalry of the Guards Army in the rear.

Zhu Long patted his horse and walked a few steps forward, observing the opponent's military formation, only to see that the officers and soldiers were clearly dressed and armored, the phalanx was neat, and the advance and retreat were measured, obviously a well-trained army.

Moreover, the number of officers and men obviously has an advantage, about 6,000 men, more than twice the number of Zhujia's army. There were about three thousand infantry in the middle, and one and a half thousand cavalry on each flank.

In front of the battle, there was a middle-aged man, with slender eyes, a narrow face with an eagle nose, he wore iron armor inside, a brocade robe on the outside, a long sword behind his back, and sat on a tall black horse.

He rode his horse to the formation and shouted loudly: "Boldly wish the dragon, as a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty, gather lawlessness, resist officers and soldiers, attack the state capital, plunder the cang, and kill the people, you really deserve death!" As the governor of Gaotang, I inherited the holy order, protected the territory and the people, and swept away the bandits! If you are lost and know how to return, you will be bound to wish the thief to surrender, and you will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, and you will be promoted as an official before the saint! If you are obsessed, when the knife and axe are on the neck, it will be too late to regret! ”

Compare your mouth with me? Let you see the power of keyboard warriors!

Zhu Long sneered disdainfully, patted his horse and came to the center of the two armies, and said with awe-inspiring justice: "Gao Lian Pifu, you are a lazy man, a scoundrel, and you do some stealing chickens and dogs, touching porcelain and blackmailing on weekdays, you don't learn and have no skills, you don't know how to write and ink, and you rely on the momentum of the old thief to become this Zhizhou, which is really a shame for the Great Song Dynasty and a misfortune for the people!" You bully men and women, loot people's wealth, and cause trouble, and the people hate you to the bone! The old thief is even more deceitful to the king, blinding the saints, blocking the virtuous road, persecuting the loyal and good, and harming the people, and the people of the world hate to eat their flesh and drink their blood! I wish the family army to recruit the heroes of the world, kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, fight local tyrants and inferior gentry, do the right thing for heaven, eliminate violence and peace, which is where the great righteousness lies, the desire of the people, and the destiny of heaven! Today, I will kill you, a dog officer, and return the military and civilian people of Tang Prefecture to a bright future! ”

"You, you--Zhu Long thief, you deceive people too much! I will not kill you, and I will not be a man! Gao Lian was so angry that he almost wanted to vomit blood, his anger overwhelmed his reason, and he shouted: "The whole army will attack, and there will be no mercy!" ”
