Chapter 154: The conspiracy behind the Wu family brothers

In order to open up the material channel between Jinzhou and Xihe, Gao Zhong gave Yang Zheng in Xingzhong (Hanzhong) City, and asked him to help set up a material transit warehouse in Mian County in Xingzhong, and transfer materials through the channels and names of the Yang family, mainly military supplies, especially thunderbolts, crossbow arrows, steel, etc., which are in short supply in Xihe.

This time, a batch of materials were also transferred in the army, although there was a war here, these things were also lacking, but Xihe was even more lacking, not to mention that it was very likely to have a conflict with the Wu family's army, and these many conflicts showed that the Wu family was very likely to attack Chengxian. At the same time, it is also necessary to guard against the retaliation of the Jin State and various tentative attacks.

For this material station, Gao Zhong sent a company of people over to let Yang Zheng nominally be incorporated into his troops, but in fact he was mainly responsible for the care of the material depot and the escort on the road.

The road is unsafe now, and among the supplies being transported are top-secret supplies such as grenades, thunderbolts, and crossbows.

After arranging all this, he drew a company of cavalry from Dazhu's pro-army camp, and asked Wang Yan to set up a well-guarded road and send them on the road. Doing all this, Gao Pet breathed a sigh of relief.

The princess came over and gave Gao Pet a slap on the shoulder. The princess was very worried about the conflict between the border and the Wu family, and asked Gao Chong:

"Husband, do you think this Wu Jue will really attack our Chengzhou?"

"Judging from their actions, they have this idea, they are now testing us, if we are too tolerant, they will become more aggressive, and if we fight back too much, let them seize the truth, widely publicize, mobilize the military and civilians, and carry out war. This is all a premeditated action between countries, you say that those soldiers have nothing to do, what is going on, they will be beaten outside, and they will be punished inside the army. ”

"The Wu brothers are so bad. Isn't this a tangled internal and external contradiction, he wants to change the current status quo, and he must want to fight a war if he wants to raise his head among the local people. Gao Pet said. This high pet saw this Wu Jue's approach very thoroughly. This Wu Jue really thinks so.

"He's just finished fighting, doesn't he need to take a break to recuperate? He's so aggressive? The princess didn't understand Wu Jue's approach. So many people died in the battle, and many of them were still wounded.

"No, he's not a belligerent, and his strength isn't offense, he can't help it. In this battle, he had two purposes, one was to divert internal contradictions and prestige among the people, and to rebuild the confidence of the army. The second is to test the strength of Princess Xihe. Last time he ate the sweetness of a sneak attack, this time he is very likely to sneak attack our army in Chengzhou again. I have written to Zhao Heng and asked him to strengthen the defense of Chengzhou, and if he comes to sneak attack, I will hurt him. ”

"Isn't he going to find Jin Jun's bad luck, he has to look for us?" The princess is also from the Great Song Dynasty now, and he really doesn't want to have a conflict with the Great Song Dynasty.

"Jin Jun, who is he looking for? Fengxiang City? , the 10,000 guards, even I don't dare to go, how many people does he need to beat Feng Xiang? Chengzhou was in that corner, but he was like a knife on his waist, and he could attack his Xingzhou (Lüyang) on two fronts, and of course he was uncomfortable. You see! "Gao Zhong drew a simple map for the princess.

"This is Chengzhou, to the north you can attack Huixian and Liangdang, and completely separate them from Fengzhou and Hanzhong, and to the south attack Xingzhou through Kang County. You know that the first thing Jin Wushu did when he arrived in Zheng County was to send Liu Kui to attack Guan Gushi, the head of the soldiers and horses of the Xihe Road Department, but Guan Gushi was defeated. Otherwise, the Golden Vulture would not be able to fight the Iron Mountain with peace of mind. ”

"I didn't understand it before, but I only knew when you said this that this Chengzhou is very important to Wu Jue."

"Of course, if I wanted to attack him, he would have been gone. But I can't take the initiative to fight, if I beat me, I will be a sinner for the ages, and your father will no longer tolerate me. ”

"I know you have a good heart, you have arrested Wu Jue and returned so many people to him, my husband has the kindest heart!"

"We must be principled in doing things, and you, the housewife of the Gao family, must also have this kindness, at least in the bottom of your heart, sometimes being strict may not be good."

"Husband, you are the master, I am the master mother, a natural pair, I can do it."

"Master, the tea is coming." It was Xi'er who came in, and when she heard the princess say this, she specially called the mistress.

"You damn little girl, you are silent, and you scared me." The princess jumped up, and was about to pinch Xi'er with her injuries.

"Sir, please use tea." This little girl is really endless. Is the fifteen-year-old Gao pet that old?

"Don't mess around, let's call the eldest young master!" This big young master's high pet is cool to listen to, and I like it.

The family of three quarreled for a while, and Zhang Dazhu came in.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

"The eldest young master, someone from the Deng family in Nanyang has come, and there is something urgent to find the eldest young master."

"Let him come here." It's a secret business, so we meet here. Both the princess and Xi'er retreated to the back tent.

The Deng family is the second quiet, Tranquility is the most low-key figure in the Deng family, ordinary people can't see him, he generally doesn't appear in public, except for being a little thinner, no one can pick this person out of the crowd on the street, he is too ordinary, not like a son of a family. Gao Chong also saw him for the first time.

"Gao Gongzi, hello, this is a letter from Yu Mei to you. After reading the letter, you can confirm my identity. "Although he came with Gao Pet's Flying Tiger Army soldiers, Gao Pet still had to confirm his identity, and this sale sealed his mouth with fire paint.

Gao Zhong read the letter, this is Deng Yu's introduction to his brother, which talks about some things, and more misses Yunyun. A love letter.

"Dazhu, you ask them to make a cup of tea for Second Prince Deng." Gao Zhong commanded, this is also a confirmation of the identity of Deng Jing, the second son of Deng.

"Deng Gongzi, you can tell me something directly." Gao Zhong said to Deng Jing.

"After the little sister came back last time, I brought back your letter, and my Deng family made arrangements according to the plan, and contacted several families such as the Liu family, the Sun family, and the Gongsun family in Nanyang to prepare to start an incident together. There are not many envoys of the Jin army in Nanyang, only about 300 people, and the others are the Shen family and the Xiang army controlled by the Shen family, the Xiang army has 500, but the private soldiers of the Shen family are not only the 500 people seen on the face, but also the Zhuang Ding of Shenjiazhuang and other 500, plus one or two families who may be good friends with the Shen family, the total strength we estimate is 2,000, but the trouble is that the Shen family has a secret guard organization, although we have some clues, but we can't fully grasp it. ”

The Shen family has been killing Gao Pet three times last year, and the reputation of Gao Pet has plummeted, and the Shen family is relatively dark, and they don't like it, so the early family can't afford it for a while in Nanyang, and in February, Shen Changfeng's second uncle Shen Feihu was wiped out by Gao Pet, and the family's military power in Qi was basically transferred, only Shen Changfeng's father is still in the court, but the Shen family is unrepentant, and is still doing evil in Nanyang City, and collecting all kinds of hooligan criminals everywhere to serve his family.

The Deng family is a big force in Nanyang, and the Liu family in Nanyang is not small, so the two families cooperate to clean up Nanyang City, there are not too many problems with such a demilitarized city, and besides, the west of the inner countryside has been cleaned up by Gao Pet's troops.
