261 Occupy Linzhou
August 5th.
Chen Mo was in Longmen County, and it was to announce to the world the text of the thief.
"Born in the decline of the Great Song Dynasty, the hearts of the heroes and thieves in the world rise together, the Song thieves do not stand together, the royal industry is not partial, we will help the Great Song Dynasty and punish the evil thieves.
Thieves, profit-seekers, have existed in ancient times, and everyone has punished them. However, it is immortal, starting from greed, big thieves and small thieves, small greedy thieves, big thieves stealing the country, small thieves stealing things, all of which are extra-legal, harming others and enriching themselves, and are not tolerated by the world.
The lord of Longyou, who received the emperor's favor for generations, was sheltered by the Great Song Dynasty for generations, but did not think of repaying the favor, and when Huai, Chong and other thieves threatened the imperial court, he not only stood by and watched, but did something to rebel against the Song Dynasty...... I decided to lead the three armies, from today onwards, the three armies out of Yuzhou to crusade against the Longyou thief, across the Longyou, the army tun Qinguan, cut the west of the river, the east of the river, thousands of miles to attack, the world is terrified, with the power of the district, the convergence of this Fengfeng momentum, our merits, can be proud. ”
This kind of essay against thieves was naturally not written by Chen Mo, but by Huang Xiu, the county magistrate of Longmen County.
Huang Xiu, the eldest son of the Huang family of the scholar clan in Longmen County, took the initiative to take refuge after Chen Mo was made a marquis, and after Chen Mo tested the other party's talent, and there was really no talent to use in Yuzhou, so he took up the post of county commander.
Chen Mo didn't want to use the people of the Shi clan, which would only deepen the influence of the other party in the local area, but anyone in the world who had some talent was not from a bad background, after all, the poor did not have the qualifications to connect to education, and they could not find talents with management ability at all.
Ordinary people, at most, served as officials in the yamen.
As soon as the article was released, it quickly spread around Yuzhou, and the content of the article pierced people's hearts, and the responsibility was clear, which could make people have a clear understanding, from high-ranking officials and nobles to ordinary people, all of them were discussed and chattered.
Chen Mo sent people to Longyou in advance to spread the word, in order to let everyone in Longyou know that there was a matter of begging for thieves.
Let everyone in the world know who the thief is.
The righteousness of the court sometimes seems useless, a piece of waste paper. But with this piece of paper, it can really reduce a lot of trouble, suppress a lot of careerists, and the human heart is really amazing.
As soon as the forces of all parties took a look, they saw that Chen Mo not only stationed troops in Shuofei County, but also issued a document to fight against thieves, and even clarified the time of sending troops on the document.
When the Yue clan saw this, he was instantly anxious, the soldiers who had just been recruited did not have much training, and after distributing the weapons, they sent them to Longshan to resist Chen Mo's army.
and asked for help from King Chong in the land west of the river.
The daughter-in-law was robbed by Chen Mo, King Chong was already holding a fire in his heart, and now the Yue clan asked him for help, the so-called cold lips and teeth, whether it was for strategic purposes or personal revenge, King Chong planned to send troops.
After discussing with his staff for a while, King Chong decided to send 8,000 troops.
The staff gave suggestions that the Yueshi would provide all the food and grass needed during the period of sending 8,000 troops.
The prince of Chongwang took the initiative to ask for his life, wanting to lead troops to Longyou, and wanted to wash away the shame with his own hands, but was rejected by Chongwang.
The prince is his future successor, King Chong is already old, and he has begun to pave the way for the prince, at this time, King Chong cannot tolerate a trace of risk.
You must know that it takes a lot of effort to train a successor, and if the prince has a good and bad word, the Chongwang Mansion will fall apart.
Chongwang has more than one son.
As King Chong sent troops to reinforce the Longyou region, for a while, almost all the eyes of the world were focused on Longyou, where there would be a big war.
Spies from various forces were sent from all over the country to learn more about it.
The large families in the city near Longshan began to move to avoid being affected by the war.
In the eyes of insiders, this big war will break out in early September at the latest.
Because their spies found that a large number of grain and grass were transported from Longmen County to Shuofei County, truck by car, as well as catapults and siege vehicles.
The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, even the young whites who have just enlisted in the army understand this.
……
And when everyone thinks so.
At the end of August, a piece of news spread from Linzhou.
On August 15, Chen Mo led an army of 10,000 to raid Nanzhao County, a border city of Linzhou, killing hundreds of enemies.
On 20 August, the prefect of Linzhou contacted the counties in many places to urgently transfer troops, but because the prefect of Linzhou did not hold the power of the army, and the Chen army was too strong to resist, many counties disobeyed the yang and yin, until the Chen army reached Xiangfen City, where the prefect of Linzhou was located, only a few local soldiers came to support, and the defenders in the city were less than 5,000.
Chen's army besieged but did not attack.
As a result, just two days later, the prefect of Linzhou opened the city and surrendered.
In fact, the prefect of Linzhou was not a surrender, and the words he used at that time were "welcome General Pingxi to take over Linzhou".
When many forces learned the news, most of the territory of Linzhou fell into the hands of Chen Jun.
These spies of many forces, when they heard the news, directly fried the pot.
It was so unexpected.
After all, before this, everyone thought that Chen Mo would lead the army to Longyou, and the army, grain and grass would be transferred to Shuofei County, but now you tell me that you have fought Linzhou.
And with lightning speed, he won most of the territory of Linzhou, and the prefect of Linzhou surrendered.
As a result, doesn't this mean that the entire Linzhou has fallen into the hands of Chen Jun.
……
September 1.
In the morning, the scorching sun hung high, and the whole land was shrouded in a layer of golden light.
Chen Mo was dressed in purple sun bright light armor and a red cloak, and behind him were more than 1,000 cavalry commanded by Xu Mu and Shao Jinneng, as well as nearly 1,000 personal soldiers commanded by Sun Meng.
The soldiers are all wearing Mingguang armor, so there should be a clear distinction between what they are wearing, so they added a purple sun to the Mingguang armor, and Sun Meng also casually mentioned at that time, if a dragon pattern is added, it will be much more handsome, but Chen Mo refused.
If the dragon pattern is added, it will be arrogant, although Chen Mo doesn't care in his heart, but with the current situation, he still doesn't show off, so it becomes Purple Sun.
In order to make it more obvious, Chen Mo also put on a red cloak.
The Xiao cavalry guards and personal soldiers are all elites, with fierce temperament, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
The east gate of Xiangfen was wide open, and two rows of brave guards were neatly lined up on both sides of the gate, full of energy.
"Master Hou!"
"Master Hou!"
"Master Hou!"
Chen Mo rode a war horse and walked directly into the city from the middle of the two rows of Divine Warrior Guards with the Xiao Cavalry Guards and the pro-soldier battalion, and the Divine Warrior Guards on both sides immediately saluted respectfully.
Chen Mo bowed his head slightly and rode into the city gate.
Xiangfen as the state city of Linzhou, but the streets are extremely deserted at the moment, although after taking over Xiangfen City, Linzhou prefect Zuo Lianglun took the officials to go door-to-door to appease, but for the thieves, the people are naturally afraid of the heart.
There is no way, the reputation of the Heavenly Master Army is already notorious, although Xu Guozhong coerced the Son of Heaven to "correct the name" of the Heavenly Master Army, but in the hearts of the people of Linzhou, they still don't recognize it.
Linzhou is not far from Qingzhou, and there were also Qingzhou people who crossed Yuzhou and came to Linzhou to flee, so naturally there were rumors about the evil deeds of the Heavenly Master Army.
They only dared to hide in their homes, quietly looking at Chen Mo's army through the cracks in the doors and windows.
Chen Mo frowned slightly when he saw this scene, but he didn't say anything.
The so-called mistakes must be admitted, and beaten must be upright.
In order to develop, the Heavenly Master Army is attached, and it will naturally be affected at this moment.
There are no vested benefits without bearing the consequences.
However, from the moment he ordered a surprise attack on Linzhou, even if he officially broke away from the Heavenly Master Army, from now on, he could play his own banner in Sanzhou.
With an idea in his heart, Chen Mo became more vigorous.
On the street outside the yamen, Zuo Lianglun almost didn't sleep all night, and worked out a series of matters for tomorrow overnight, and began to arrange them in the morning.
Zuo Lianglun took more than 1,000 officials to wait under the scorching sun, both nervously and nervously.
Da Da...
The crisp sound of horses' hooves sounded.
"Here we are." Someone said something.
Everyone's hearts sank, and they cheered up one after another, looking in the direction of the sound of horses' hooves.
At the end of the street, a majestic and domineering steel cavalry was coming.
The person at the head was tall, riding a white horse with golden armor, and a pair of eyes as sharp as a sword, Zuo Lianglun and the others couldn't help but look away, not daring to look at him.
Especially Zuo Lianglun, his heart was full of shock.
When the city was besieged, this cavalry did not appear, which made him think that the people and horses besieging the city at that time were already elite enough, at least the local soldiers in Linzhou were absolutely incomparable, and he never expected that the cavalry in front of him was even extraordinary.
The strength or weakness of an army, in addition to the performance through war, for insiders, can be seen through the appearance of the army, after all, that kind of spirit cannot be reflected without strict training.
Coming to the front of everyone, his eyes swept around, and Chen Mo said condescendingly: "Where is Zuo Lianglun?" ”
Seeing that Sun Meng, who had been in contact with him, was behind Chen Mo, Zuo Lianglun knew who this person was: "Xiaguan Zuo Lianglun, I have seen Master Hou." ”
Although Zuo Lianglun is the prefect of Linzhou, he is only a five-rank martial artist, not as Liang Songqiang, through the system, Chen Mo saw that the number on his head was 557, which was stronger than Song Niu at that time.
Chen Mo glanced at him and said loudly: "This time you can enter the city without blood, you are the first merit, and this marquis will definitely ask Your Majesty for merit." ”
"Xia Guan has always been a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, and Hou Ye is the general of Anxi personally appointed by His Majesty, cooperating with Hou Ye and doing things for Hou Ye are all what Xia Guan should do, how dare you ask for credit." Zuo Lianglun said busily.
Chen Mo didn't expose it, he glanced at the people behind Zuo Lianglun, pressed his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Zuo Lianglun is talking nonsense, we are all doing things for Your Majesty." ”
Saying that, Chen Mo continued: "However, Your Majesty allows Ben Hou to act cheaply, since Lord Zuo is the prefect of Linzhou, before the imperial court has no other arrangements for Lord Zuo, then continue to be in charge." ”
Zuo Lianglun thought that after Chen Mo entered Linzhou, he would give him a blow, but he didn't expect to let himself continue, and he was immediately ecstatic and thanked him loudly: "Thank you Hou Ye, the next official will also serve Hou Ye, and he will never give up." ”
As for the court and His Majesty, they were all left behind by him.
Now what is the situation in Luo Nan, he also understands.
ps: There is no strong enemy in Linzhou, crushing the bureau, there will be no water war plot.
