"It's up to me."

Jin Guochen patted Kong Youde's shoulder and said mysteriously.

"Oh? You have a way! ”

Kong Youde's eyes flashed, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Of course, there are soldiers from Shandong in my battalion, and I happened to talk to them."

Jin Guochen nodded and said.

It turned out that when the Leopard Tao Camp was expanding, there was a rule, that is, the soldiers from Orion were the first choice.

Many former Shandong soldiers who were hungry and forced to go into the mountains to hunt heard about the recruitment and tried every means to come to Jinzhou Town.

After they were summoned to the Leopard Tao camp, Yang Chengying personally came forward to write a letter to the governor Li Song and the general soldier Shen Degong, hoping that they would not embarrass the families of these soldiers.

Li Song didn't want to stiffen the relationship with Yang Chengying, so he agreed with the mediation of Shen Degong, the chief soldier.

Since then, these Shandong soldiers have been training hard under Jin Guochen.

"Go, call Qi Lao Liu."

Jin Guochen whispered an order to the herald behind him.

The herald answered "yes" and turned to leave.

A moment later, he called a sentry named Qi Lao Liu.

Qi Lao Liu is a typical Shandong man, burly and tall, with a bold personality, and without losing a bit of cunning, he is wise and foolish.

"Commander!" Qi Lao Liu hugged his fists.

"Sixth, I'll give you a difficult task."

Jin Guochen said quickly: "It is very likely that the defenders of the Santun camp in front are from Shandong, but we are not sure, so I hope you can contact them." ”

"I see."

"Be careful, and take care of yourself."

"Hey."

Qi Lao Liu rushed out from behind the hillside and went straight to the Santun camp.

He was accompanied by three companions.

They held crossbows in their hands and provided fire suppression for Qi Lao Liu at any time to ensure that Qi Lao Liu escaped safely.

Approaching the Santun camp, Qi Lao Liu took off his armor and handed it to his companions where no one was looking, carrying only a dagger.

Due to the need for concealment, the sentinels chose to wear the clothes of the people, and then wore armor inside. When necessary, take off your armor and bare-chested, and relax the enemy's vigilance.

Qi Lao Liu whistled and deliberately attracted the attention of the guards guarding the city.

Sure enough, the soldiers in the city stretched out their bows and arrows and pointed at Qi Lao Liu.

"Who are you?" They asked.

"I am the sixth Qi Lao of the Thousand Households Office of Dengzhou Mansion."

Qi Lao Liu pretended to talk very easily, while closely observing the garrison.

Listening to the accent like a fellow countryman, the soldier lowered his guard a little and asked: "This is Santun Camp, what are you doing here in Dengzhou?" ”

"I'm a horse buyer, some time ago the Tartars came in, scared me to hide in the mountains, and found that the defense here has changed, so I came."

Qi Laoliu's casual nonsense was also in line with the situation at the time.

When the city soldiers heard this, they said, "Count your kid lucky, our boss has already recovered this place." ”

"Oh, that's great." Qi Lao Liuliu was happy.

"But, brother, you have to give some money before we let you into the city."

The other soldiers laughed.

The dealer who buys the horse must have brought a lot of money, and if he doesn't extort at this time, he will wait for when!

Qi Lao Liu also smiled, "I heard that under the command of the Denglai General Army, there is a general named Liu Zeqing who can be here?" ”

"Yo, you still have acquaintances, I'm sorry, General Liu is not here, he is training soldiers in Denglai."

A soldier said.

"Then who is the military master who recovered here?" Qi Lao Liu asked.

"Yang Zhaoji, Master Yang."

"Oh, it turned out that he was idle at home, the former Yansui Chief Soldier, and the Yang General Master who served as the Chief Soldier of Denglai."

"Do you know Master Yang?"

"I used to be his family, because my family had an old mother, when Mr. Yang moved to Yansui, I didn't follow."

"It turned out to be an old acquaintance, you report your name, and I will report to Master Yang."

"Qi Lao Liu, Qi Shaobao's Qi, the sixth in the family."

"Understood."

When one of the soldiers heard this, he turned and went down to the city.

Qi Lao Liu pretended to have a stomachache at this time, and ran to a place where no one saw it in embarrassment and funny.

The soldiers in the city laughed.

They didn't know that Qi Lao Liu was there to join his companions.

After the convergence, Qi Lao Liu told his companions what he had said.

Companions flew to report Kong Youde and Jin Guochen.

"The imperial court was forced to use a group of generals who were idle at home, and Yang Zhaoji was probably activated at this time."

Kong Youde guessed: "We have no need to be tempted, and immediately the whole army is approaching the Santun camp." ”

"Although they know the details, what if they are afraid that we will take the credit for their work and will not let us enter the city?"

Jin Guochen said worriedly.

"What to do? Hum! That's only a quick knife to cut through the mess. ”

Kong Youde swiped down with his right hand and made a splitting motion, which means attacking the city.

Although Jin Guochen was taken aback, he still nodded in agreement.

According to the general practice, it must be to let Qi Laoliu enter the city, and Yang Zhaoji will be close to him, and then raise troops into the city after eliminating the hostility.

But this is the area controlled by the Houjin army, and they are very curious to know how Yang Zhaoji defeated the Santun camp, and it must be as soon as possible.

The 1,000 cavalry of the Leopard Tao Battalion and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion quickly approached the Santun Battalion.

The soldier who brought a message to Qi Lao Liu, when he came back, he saw that there was a soldier of such a scale behind Qi Lao Liu, and everyone was stupid.

"You, you...... Not a horse dealer? ”

The soldier stammered.

"I am under the command of Yang Hou Ye of Jinzhou Town, the captain of the third team of the first post directly under the Leopard Tao Battalion, Qi Huaien."

Qi Lao Liu proudly reported his home.

Qi Huaien, this name is the name that Qi Lao Liu gave himself after studying cultural classes for a few days after entering the camp.

Golden State Town? Leopard Tao Camp! What a familiar name.

The soldiers from Shandong were not very afraid.

Jin Guochen stepped forward and said: "Please inform Master Yang, just say that Kong Youde, the commander of the Xiaocai Battalion and the deputy general of the imperial court, and Jin Guochen, the commander of the Leopard Tao Battalion and the general of the imperial court, hope to see General Yang." ”

"Okay, let's go and report to Master Yang."

The soldier turned and went in.

Yang Zhaoji, a native of Yizhou, Shandong, commanded the guard post with martial arts, and was gradually promoted to the general army of Datong.

When Xu Hongru rebelled, he was crowned the chief military officer of Shandong and suppressed the uprising.

After Shen Yourong returned to his hometown, he served as the commander-in-chief of Denglai.

At that time, Yang Chengying's status was already very high, and Yang Zhaoji could not form some kind of restraint on Yang Chengying like Shen Yourong.

Later, he served as the commander-in-chief of Yansui.

Yansui took office as the chief soldier and recovered Lanzhou. Later, he offended Wei Zhongxian, was forced to resign, and was idle at home.

Knowing that it was Yang Chengying's soldiers outside, Yang Zhaoji was not embarrassed, so he let them in.

"Master Yang, I want to ask one thing."

Kong Youde saw that Yang Zhaoji was so generous, and his attitude was also very good.

"General Kong, please speak."

Yang Zhaoji said with a smile.

With such an elite army and strong generals, it is not a problem to hold the Santun camp.

"Santun Camp is such an important place, how did Master Yang successfully take it?"

Kong Youde said respectfully: "I don't mean anything else, I just want to know about the surrounding situation." ”

"That's right, there was a Ming army attacking Zunhua, and the Zunhua defenders attacked, and they also transferred the Tartars of the Santun camp."

Although a little embarrassed, Yang Zhaoji still told the truth.

"So...... How's the battle going? Kong Youde hurriedly asked.

"The Tartars were defeated, and it was said that they were retreating towards Jianming Town."

Yang Zhaoji said uncertainly: "I don't know how it is now." I have too few soldiers to attack. ”
