Chapter 149: Huazhou City Shakes
"Woo...... Master, it's a disaster, wake up, it's a disaster......" Master Liu Zhen, the Taishou of Huazhou, originally fell asleep with his concubine in his arms after half a night of exercise, but was awakened by the panicked and helpless cry of the old housekeeper. The beautiful concubine was almost thrown under the bed, scolding and pulling a pair of pants. Barefoot and bare chest hair, ready to rush out of the room to cry and mourn.
However, when he learned of the incident, the fat trembled, and his roar was particularly sharp: "What? You... You repeat, the soldiers and horses of Jingzhao Mansion were attacked? ”
The old butler, who was over fifty years old, did not speak. Instead, he waited for Liu Taishou to clean up, and led his master to the living room of the house with a lantern.
There was a big man in armor waiting, and there was tea on the coffee table steaming hot but not moving, walking around with a sad face, sighing. This person has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and it is Lord Li Hu, the supervisor of Huazhou Soldiers and Horses.
Seeing Liu Taishou coming in a hurry, he rushed up with an arrow to report the emergency military situation. The detailed process of the team report will be rewarded word for word.
The reinforcements of Jingzhao Mansion were attacked in Bahe, and the news of almost all the annihilation was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and it exploded again on Liu Taishou's head. The old man who was originally full of confidence retreated again and again, almost squatted on the ground with a fart, slumped on the chair and exclaimed.
"How can the elite of five battalions, 300 soldiers, 200 sailors, and at least more than 3,000 people be defeated and annihilated in such a short period of time?"
Li Hudu wiped the sweat on his head and reported what he knew: "The strongman attacked it halfway, according to the rout who jumped into the river and escaped, the strongman of Shaohua Mountain was ambushed in the grass at the embankment, and then in the melee, Zhang
Kaidujian was killed, which caused a great confusion in the army's mind, and suddenly killed the navy. Our receiving party thought that the army had crossed the river and was late......"
Liu Taishou was no longer able to concentrate on listening to what Master Li said, he only knew that it was a fact that the reinforcements of Jingzhao Mansion were wiped out, and he lost 3,000 men and horses at once, and the ferocity of the strongmen in Shaohua Mountain made him feel frightened for a while. The inflated self-confidence has been hit, and there is no room for optimism about this crackdown.
"What should I do? What can I do? Liu Taishou murmured nervously.
Li Hu thought he was asking himself, and hurriedly said his opinion: "My lord, the last general thinks that the top priority is to send someone to notify several other reinforcements, strengthen vigilance to prevent sneak attacks, and then gather the generals to discuss countermeasures." Before the arrival of the leading general Zhao, stabilize the situation and counterattack. ”
"Yes, the general has a point, and I think so too." Liu Taishou was panicked at this time, and Mao thought that seeing the head of the Governor of Benzhou was like grabbing a life-saving straw, how could he disagree?
It was also at this time that the preparations were quickly finalized and preparations were sent overnight. The poor old butler was panting and rushed with a soldier of the Forbidden Army. The sound of calamity continued, bringing two terrible news in succession.
Tongzhou was ambushed at the foot of Qingyue Mountain, and few of the 800 forbidden troops escaped. The soldiers and horses of Hezhong Mansion were robbed in the middle of the night, and the 2,000 men and horses were almost wiped out.
The soldiers and horses on both sides were ambushed, and it was all over!
"Oh my God!" Liu Taishou's face was like ashes when he heard the news, and he screamed sadly, almost fainting. Nearly half of the centaurs were damaged before the fight, no matter whether he could destroy the strongman or not, the black gauze hat on his Liu Zhen's head was definitely not guaranteed.
Metropolitan Supervisor Li Hu's face
The color is not much better, and it will definitely be implicated after this war, and it is possible to lose your head. Inexplicably, I remembered the words when I came down from Shaohua Mountain a few months ago, "Shaohua Mountain does not want to be an enemy of others, and I hope that the Huazhou government will consider it carefully and not come to cause trouble again." ”
At this moment, Li Hu regretted very much that he did not adopt it, but instead encouraged Taishou to report to the court. It is true that a large number of reinforcements were sent, but there were serious consequences.
What's the use of regretting now, the current situation must be taken into account after all. Huazhou Taishou Liu Zhen, and Li Hu, the commander of the soldiers and horses, decided to convene the generals to discuss.
When the sky was bright, the regimental training envoys or soldiers and horses who rushed from the prefectures of Yan, Xie, Qing, Yao and other prefectures gathered in the city to discuss matters.
"Liu Taishou, I don't know why I hurriedly called me to come and get together." The Gyeongju Terracotta Metropolitan Supervisor bowed his hand politely, yawning a little impatiently. Gyeongju is a big state, and there are three battalions of people here, so they have this confidence.
The others also followed suit, and sat on the back of the big horse golden knife one by one, either the big brother was the head, or they didn't wake up.
This is one of the drawbacks of bringing in troops and horses from everywhere.
Except for the leading generals appointed by the imperial court, they are not under the jurisdiction of the local government.
Liu Taishou held back his anger and grievances, and squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying: "Generals, don't be impatient, please come and discuss important matters." Late last night, I got three unfortunate pieces of news in succession......"
Master Liu Zhen's face was hideous, and he wanted to use strong words to explain that the situation was serious. I just shuddered at the thought of the annihilation of the three people. The voice was not imposing, even with a slight trill. To these regimental exercises from all over the place,
The Metropolitan Supervisor clarified the facts.
I don't know if the newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, or if these officials are really capable. The ambush of soldiers and horses on the three roads of Tongzhou, Jingzhao Mansion, and Hezhong Mansion did cause a lot of sensation, but the topic was off track.
"Same state? What does a battalion do? Yaozhou Tuanlian pouted with some disdain. As for the soldiers of the other half battalion, they directly chose to round off.
The capital supervisors of Qing, Dun and other prefectures, the group practice spoke one after another: "Zhao Neng of Hezhong Mansion spent money to buy the position, and it is understandable that he was ambushed. But I've seen Zhang Kai in Jingzhao Mansion, his martial arts are good, and he marches cautiously, how can this be? ”
"That's it, and Jingzhao Mansion is all elite, how can it be defeated by a strong man?"
Liu Taishou looked at this group of people and patted the table in front of him: "Everyone, generals, Lord Zhao, the general appointed by the imperial court, has not yet arrived, and the strongmen are rampant, causing us to fold thousands of soldiers and horses, in case we are to blame it......"
When the regimental supervisors and capital supervisors of several states heard this, they were a little unhappy: "Lord Liu, you can rest assured, the Privy Council has ordered several changes, and there is no time limit for assembly. General Zhao was delayed. Besides, being raided by a strongman on the road, that's because of my own incompetence, so what does it have to do with me? ”
Just when the hall was noisy, someone outside suddenly shouted with a long voice......
The Taishou Mansion was instantly quiet.
Immediately afterwards, several forbidden troops who looked a little embarrassed rushed in: "Yan'an Mansion, Shangzhou and the two military horses have an urgent military situation report. ”
"Liu Taishou, the villain is the supervisor of Yan'an Mansion Wu Yudu, so I came to report that the soldiers and horses of Yan'an Mansion confronted the strongman of Shaohua Mountain on the south bank of the Nanchuan River, and the other party was even cunning and short
Time simply can't cross the river......"
"My lord, my lords, the villain is the personal soldier of Shangzhou Chen Dujian. I was attacked on the way to report it, but I was found out, and I won one battle after another, and surrounded the enemy at Chi Pine Ridge, twenty kilometers away, and asked for reinforcements......"
The two forbidden soldiers took out their official talismans one after another, and sealed the letter to be presented to Liu Taishou. After confirming their identities, they told them in detail about the situation they had encountered. Then he was sent down to rest.
"Ouch!" Liu Taishou breathed a sigh of relief when he learned the two news, it was not too bad after all. In particular, Shangzhou Chen Dujian won the battle, as if he saw the dawn. His face also became a lot better, and he looked at the generals again: "Strongmen are rampant, and there are multiple ambushes, what should we do now?" ”
"This Shaohuashan strongman is so bold, so presumptuous? When I wait for non-existent? The atmosphere of the government changed instantly, and the generals shouted loudly.
