Chapter 301: Lifting People
Chengshan Fort is located southwest of Beishan Fort.
It is also located on a small plain surrounded by mountains, the scope of this small plain is very small, and the large number of soldiers and horses cannot be arranged at all.
Cities are easy to defend and difficult to attack.
There were originally four or five thousand people in the castle, after the Mengyuan people went south, the hundred households in the fort, the general banner and other officials, with their families, slaves, and some military households fled south, and there are still about 3,000 people left in the fort.
The time for the Mengyuan people to get Liaodong was too short after all. On the side of Beishan Fort, Wu Nian put up a frantic resistance.
They didn't have time to send the brave officials to the mountain fort and take over everything.
To put it simply, Chengshan Fort is currently in a power vacuum. The Chu bureaucrats withdrew, and the Mengyuan people had not yet come.
In this way, it gives careerists an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Just when Wu Nian was in Beishan Fort, fighting against the Mengyuan people in full swing, attracting the attention of Jin Huanshan, the general of the Mengyuan Wanhu, and Zhang Bu, the general of the Han Wanhu.
Someone stole the castle and gained the trust of the people inside the fort.
One of them is called Lu Jubei, a man who is a man from northern Liaobei. At the beginning of the Mengyuan people's southward journey, he fled south with his family and stopped at Chengshan Fort.
In the state of Chu, the lord of the people was an official reserve and had great power in the local area. And the Lu family was originally a scholarly family, five or six generations of scholars.
In Liaodong, it is common to raise family soldiers. While Lu Jubei took his family members to the south, he also brought a lot of domestic slaves and soldiers, which was quite powerful.
The other person is named Ma Zheng, who was originally a young general in Liaodong and has been an official for generations. Before the Mengyuan people did not go south, the official worshiped the general flag.
And Ma Zheng is not a rotten Liaodong general, he has real skills and makes good use of the horse lance. When he fled, he brought his subordinates and his subordinates with him, and he was quite powerful.
After the two arrived at the mountain fort, they saw that Wu Nian and the Mengyuan people next door were fighting against each other, and they were in full swing, so they also had some thoughts.
One of them is in charge of the people and the other is in charge of the army. Recruited soldiers and horses, gathered militia, entrenched in Chengshan Fort, and became the emperor of a soil.
This morning. The sun is shining, but it can't melt the snow all over the mountains.
Chengshan Fort.
This castle was originally dilapidated, but after Ma Zheng's emergency repair, it is not as solid as a rock at present, but at least it is also a qualified military fortress, and garrison is not a problem.
On the tower of the city gate, there is a banner with the word "Lu", announcing the owner of this place, named Lu Jubei. On the city wall, elite soldiers cooperate with the militia, or stand guard, or train. They are not well-equipped, but they are in good spirits and look a little imposing.
The hundred households in the city have now become Lu Jubei's mansion. The old and young of the Lu family all lived in the yamen.
Ma Zheng was willing to be a deputy, and he also led the soldiers to live in the barracks.
The two of them have one article and one martial arts, and they control Chengshan Fort tightly.
Inside the hall. Lu Jubei was wearing a black cotton jacket, sitting on the main seat, wearing a blue leather hat on his head, black cloth shoes on his feet, and crossing Erlang's legs.
Ma Zheng's appearance at the age of twenty-seven or eighteen is very ordinary, but his body is very burly, with tiger eyes and a murderous aura.
He was wearing a half-worn battle jacket and a steel knife hanging from his waist, and he was also drinking tea.
"It's been a long time since Wu Nian sent troops to Guangyang Mansion, and I don't know what the situation is now." Ma Zheng put down the teacup in his hand, and his face showed a worried look.
The reason why he dared to gain a foothold in this Chengshan Fort was because Wu Nian attracted the attention of the Mengyuan people. If Wu Nian goes to Guangyang Mansion and has three long and two short, they may not be able to stand.
He didn't know that Wu Nian had already led his troops back, there was no way, now there was a lot of snow in the mountains, the mountain roads were difficult to walk, and the news was very closed.
Although Chengshan Fort is only a few dozen miles away from Beishan Fort, the news has not yet arrived.
Lu Jubei had a different idea, a smile appeared in his eyes, he looked up at Ma Zheng, and said: "Wu Nian used a conspiracy, relying on the castle, to behead some Mengyuan commanders and kill some Mengyuan soldiers. As a result, he did not measure his own strength, and went to Guangyang Mansion to become an enemy of Wanyan Xian. I think he will die in Guangyang Mansion. ”
Ma Zheng suddenly became agitated, stood up with a black face, put his hands on his waist, and paced back and forth: "Wu Nian, why do you want to go to Guangyang Mansion." He fought in Beishan Fort, didn't he fight very well? ”
"Now he is sending troops to Guangyang Mansion to save what dragons, isn't it crazy?"
"If Wu Nian dies in Quang Duong Mansion. Mr. Naro. We need to plan ahead. ”
The so-called plan is just two plans. One is to abandon Chengshan Fort, take the mountain road, pretend to be ordinary people, and go south to the Chu State.
The second is to divide the territory into a mountain fort and surrender to the Mengyuan people.
Ma Zheng was a little panicked, but Lu Jubei was calm. He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said beautifully: "Master Ma, don't panic. In my opinion, if Wu Nian dies in Guangyang Mansion, it will still be good for us. ”
"Without Wu Nian in front of us, where do we get the benefits?" Ma Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically. But he soon remembered that the man in front of him was a man, a scholar, and quite resourceful. Because of this, he willingly became a deputy.
"What do you think, sir?" Ma Zheng returned to his seat and sat down, raised his head, and looked at Lu Jubei with burning eyes.
"If Wu Nian dies in Guangyang Mansion, there will be no master on the side of Beishan Fort. The soldiers and civilians over there, fighting with the Mengyuan people, had high morale and a very resolute will to fight. It is the person who is available. ”
"And I am a serious person of the Chu State, and my lord is the general flag with the official seal."
"He Wu Nianneng calls himself the general of the auxiliary Han and coordinates the overall situation. Am I not more qualified than he is? If Wu Nian dies in Guangyang Mansion, you will escort me to Beishan Fort and take over the power of Beishan Fort completely. ”
"Master Ma. You're a capable person. I'm also a capable person. We work together to make a name for ourselves in Liaodong. When the imperial court recovers Liaodong in the future, won't we have a bright future? ”
In the face of his subordinate generals, Lu Jubei also dug out his heart and lungs, and said his ambitions and thoughts in one go.
As the saying goes, the times make heroes.
He was originally a lifter, but that's about it. Seeing that it is not possible to study and get into the Jinshi. Now such an opportunity is in front of one's eyes, and it must be seized.
Ma Zheng is a person with good martial arts skills and good soldiers.
Wu Nian laid the foundation of Beishan Fort for them again, and the most wonderful thing is that Wu Nian has now gone to Guangyang Mansion, and his life and death are uncertain.
No.
In his opinion, Wu Nian is dead. The other party is completely good-looking. Wu Nian was in Beishan Fort, but he only relied on intrigue and trickery, as well as mountain peaks and castles as defenses, to resist the attack of Jinhuan Mountain, and went to Guangyang Mansion.
He just could, taking advantage of the weakness, occupying the magpie's nest and snatching everything in Beishan Fort.
Man.
I don't want to believe what I hear, I just want to believe what I see.
Lu Jubei always believed that the reason why Wu Nian was able to rely on Beishan Fort to do these big things was because of his geographical occupation and intrigues.
He is resourceful, and Ma Zheng is good at martial arts.
If Wu Nian can do it, they can do it too. Based on Beishan Fort and Chengshan Fort, he insisted on resisting the Mengyuan people in the mountains.
Waiting for the Chu State to counterattack Liaodong, they are the heroes.
Hey.
Perfect.
