……

More than 60 miles outside Xinzhou City, a place called Lucheng.

The news of the defeat of the imperial court spread like a plague on the way north.

The officers and soldiers of the Taishou in various places were all frightened and were busy reinforcing the city defense, among which Lucheng was no exception.

The army of Lucheng is only 300, and the terrain is flat, which can be described as easy to attack and difficult to defend.

For the sake of his own safety, Taishou Tuliju constantly strengthened the city fortifications day and night.

But on the first day of October, a thousand Han troops led by Yue Shaomu occupied the city without blood.

The key is that the people of Lucheng heard that the Han army was heading north, and tens of thousands of residents in the city suddenly rose up under the arrangement of someone with a heart, killed the defenders of the city, and welcomed the Han army into the city ten miles away.

Part of this is due to the fact that the rumors that the Han army had committed no crimes against the common people along the way have already reached the ears of the people in various counties, allowing the people who have suffered from oppression to see a glimmer of opportunity to change their fate.

In addition, in order to strengthen the city, Tuliju did not hesitate to send additional labor, which made the people miserable, so he decided to take risks and switch to "foreign enemies".

After Yue Shaomu's army was stationed in Lucheng, the military quality it showed was indeed as rumored, not only did he not nag the people, but also took the initiative to take out food to feed the suffering people, and even sent medical personnel in the army to treat sick patients.

Just these measures were immediately supported by 20,000 people in the city, and some people took Yue Shaomu to smash open the gate of the treasury and handed over all the grain, grass and ordnance piled up in it to Yue Shaomu for distribution.

This magical scene had to make Yue Shaomu sigh: "The people of a foreign country would rather be pawns for the enemy than pick up weapons to defend their homeland, which shows that the government and the opposition in this country are so corrupt and unpopular with the people." ”

However, Yue Shaomu still knows too little about the magical land of Jinguo, and the people are not unable to resist the invaders, but the Great Golden Law has a saying: Civilians who kill the enemy with troops are regarded as rebellion, and they should be beheaded, and the nine clans will be slaves.

In the final analysis, the high-level of the Jin State is afraid from the bottom of their bones that the people of their country will awaken and rebel against the righteous people, for them, they don't need any righteous people who are righteous and brave, they just want to obey their words and obey the people, who are ignorant and deceitful.

In the golden age, pigs and dogs are not as good!

With the help of the people of Lucheng, in just three days, Yue Shaomu built three barbed wire defense lines outside the city and dug up artillery positions.

In addition, 300 young people in the city took the initiative to join the Han army and provide them with logistical support.

Until the ninth day of October, the most elite northern army of 220,000 Dajin led by Zhang Gui entered Xinzhou City.

Fukuo immediately stepped forward to greet him: "See the general!" ”

Zhang Gui stopped: "The vulgar rites are exempt, let me ask you, where is the Dongyi Army now?" ”

Fuxiong: "Returning to the general, the Dongyi army has been stationed in Lucheng. ”

"Lucheng?"

Zhang Gui frowned: "Is Lucheng too Shou Tuli Ju send someone to ask for help?" ”

Fuxiong shook his head and said: "The spies came to report that there was a sudden civil uprising in Lucheng, and the Taishou Tuliju and the three hundred defending officers and soldiers of Lucheng were all killed and in the hands of the chaotic people. ”

Zhang Gui: "Then the people of Lucheng didn't resist Dongyi?" ”

Fuxiong: "Instead of resisting Dongyi, the Diao people of Lucheng took the initiative to welcome the Dongyi army into the city. ”

When Fuying on the side heard this, he immediately said angrily: "If it is really a cheap race in Dongyi, when Dongyi is pacified, all the people in Lucheng will be slaughtered!" ”

"That's it!" Zhang Gui roared angrily, "The people have turned to the enemy, it is the local officials who have expropriated and extorted money, and there is no portrayal of benevolent government, how can the people be blamed?" ”

When Fu Ying heard this, he was dissatisfied: "What? Does the general still have to speak for the rebellious people? ”

Zhang Gui: "Is what General Ben said wrong?" Yes and no, you know best! ”

Fu Ying said angrily: "General, what do you mean by this? ”

Zhang Gui: "Why do you want me to list them all for you?" ”

"You ......"

Seeing that the contradiction was about to escalate, Fuxiong hurriedly said: "The two of you, the current enemy, how can there be infighting? Let's think about how to break the enemy! ”

"Humph......"

Fu Ying snorted coldly and turned his head away from him.

Zhang Gui said: "The army will rest in Xinzhou for a few days, during which time someone will be ordered to listen to the movements of the enemy. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ji Sang was immediately unconvinced: "General, the soldiers are very fast, and the last general thinks that before Dongyi reacts, he should immediately send troops to attack Lucheng and annihilate the invading enemy in one fell swoop." ”

Zhang Gui: "More than 200,000 horses, do you think that the enemy army is blind and deaf, so there is no preparation?" Don't act rashly until you know the exact information! ”

Jisang's face was full of disbelief: "The general won't be afraid of Dongyi, right?" The last general dared to make a military order, and he was willing to lead 10,000 horses and horses to attack Lucheng, if he didn't win, he would behead me! ”

"Ignorance!" Zhang Gui roared, "The lessons of Fukang's 40,000 army have been forgotten so quickly? ”

Hearing this, Fu Ying said angrily: "Old man Zhang Gui, what do you mean by this?!" ”

Zhang Gui: "I'm just stating the facts!" ”

"You ......"

"Humph!"

Ji Sang snorted coldly, regardless of the grievances between the Fu family and Zhang Gui, he threw off his sleeves and left.

When he returned to the camp, he immediately said to the lieutenant general: "Command the people of the headquarters, stand by in front of the city, and follow me to kill Lucheng!" ”

The adjutant general was stunned when he heard this: "General, is this what the general means?" ”

"What a bullshit general, he was so frightened by the Dongyi people that he didn't dare to march!" Jisang said angrily, "But I, Jisang, am a golden warrior, how can I be afraid of Dongyi?"

Don't pay attention to that old horseman, let General Ben take you to make a contribution! ”

The adjutant general wanted to say more, but was choked by Ji Sang's cold eyes.

An hour later......

"Presumptuous! Jisang does not respect military orders, and this general will definitely bring him to justice! ”

After learning that Jisang had privately led troops to attack Lucheng, Zhang Gui was immediately furious.

But no one present spoke out in support of Zhang Gui.

Because Zhang Gui is a lonely minister in the court, and those present here have their own deep backgrounds and heels, they naturally will not take him in their eyes.

"General Ben wants to impeach Jisang, so there is no military law, he should be beheaded for public display!"

Fu Ying suddenly said: "General, don't be excited, maybe Jisang won?" ”

Zhang Gui: "General Fu, you are also a veteran of the battlefield, don't you know that intelligence is important?"

We don't know how many men and horses the enemy currently has, how to arrange the tactics, and whether there are reinforcements behind it.

How can you go undefeated if you send troops so blindly? ”

Fu Ying said: "The general is right, but this is a war in my Dajin, the enemy is my master, and it should be flexible in case of trouble." ”

Zhang Gui was shocked: "I really can't imagine that General Tangfu can actually say such a thing, I'm afraid that you are pretending to be confused and deliberately making things difficult for General Ben, right?" ”

Fu Ying chuckled: "How dare you, it's just that we are all doing things for the Long Live Lord, and everything should be done with the ideas of the Long Live Lord." ”

Zhang Gui frowned: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Fu Ying: "General, you have been in the court for many years, but you haven't figured out the mind of the Long Live Lord, do you know what the Long Live Lord needs most at the moment?" ”

Zhang Gui's face was indifferent, and he really didn't have the habit of adapting to it.

I only heard Fu Ying say in a deep voice: "Long live the Lord is now ordering Li Xiang to compile a complete martial arts record, and he just lacks a big credit to finish it, do you understand?" ”

"What? This ......"

When Zhang Gui heard this, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly trembled in shock.

"Hooray, Lord He...... Confused......"
