Chapter 937: The whole army in Huazhou
Liang Xun sneered and said: "Lord Li, since you came to Bianliang to proclaim the decree, King Kang has nothing to do with Gyeonggi Road, how smart and reasonable King Kang is, how could he do such a violation; ”
Quan Bangyan couldn't help laughing, the first battle of Dongping Mansion, the prefect Liang Yangzu fled with 5,000 Hebei troops, and Kong Yanzhou, the commander of the soldiers and horses, fled with the 5,000 Xiang troops of Dongping Mansion, and he stayed behind to fight hard with the Jin army. The wicked still have to be grinded by the wicked, Liang Xun taught Li Gang a lesson, thinking with his toes, King Kang Zhao Gou would not admit that he wanted Zhao Kai to do this.
Li Guang breathed a sigh of relief, Liang Xun said that he would not kill Zhao Kai for the time being; Yang Zhi attacked Huazhou, even if the loss of 40,000 people was great, with Yang Zhi's ability, he could still bring half of the people back, at least for now, Yang Zhi's arrangement was not a problem. Li Guang was a harsh person, and after thinking about it, he asked Liang Xun: "Your army is all incorporated from the righteous army, what is the combat effectiveness?"
Liang Xun smiled and said: "We are different from Zhang Yong's righteous army, all the soldiers have armor and weapons, Yang Jin originally had 100,000 people to follow in Runan, and 15,000 people were eliminated, and Wang Shan's more than 10,000 people were also selected from 80,000 people, you see that there are cavalry in the army, you should know that you have fought with the Jin army." ”
This is similar to Li Guang's estimate of Zhang Yong, and Li Gang and the others understand that Yang Zhi and Liang Xun are still preparing to absorb Zhang Yong and others outside the city, but they will not let them have so many rabble. By the evening, news had already come that Liu Qi had captured Huazhou Prefecture and Baima, and Yang Jin's army had captured Weicheng County.
Yang Zhi is now in Weicheng, and there is no joy, Huazhou is south of the Yellow River and north of the Bianhe River, but it manages the ferries and bridges on the north bank of the Yellow River, and specially has Huazhou Beizhai; Shenzong Xining ten years because of the Yellow River bursting, the place of crossing the river from Deshengjin in Shanzhou to the west of Baimajin, Huazhou, Tangyin, Liyang, Huazhou, Weicheng, Changyuan, Kaifeng this road has become the most important traffic road between Bianliang and Hebei.
There are four fixed pontoon bridges built on the river surface from Huazhou to Liyang, namely the Huazhou Bridge in the north of Huazhou City, the Liyang Bridge on the north bank of Huazhou, the Shenggong Bridge between Wenzi Mountain and Dahuan Mountain, and the Tiancheng Bridge between Dahuan Mountain and Jushan, these bridges cost millions of taels of silver, and the management rights of the ferry were assigned to Huazhou as Kaifeng Beifu at that time. When Liang Shicheng withdrew his troops, he burned all the pontoon bridges in one go, and this time Zhang Heng's naval army cooperated with Liu Qi, so he attacked and occupied Baima in one fell swoop.
Now there are more than 10,000 people and soldiers of Xue Guang and the rebels near Weicheng County, and Yang Zhi came with 1,000 horsemen to see for himself what this army looks like; Xue Guang, the commander of the command, knew that Yang Zhi had been appointed to stay in Tokyo, and when he learned that Yang Zhi had arrived, he immediately expressed his willingness to accept Yang Zhi's command, and notified the generals from all walks of life to come and welcome him, and Yang Zhi took Wu Song and Che Dongxing into the big tent.
As soon as Yang Zhi entered Xue Guang's big tent, he unexpectedly saw Li Yuweng with a smile on his face and the expressionless abbot of Baihui Temple, Master Kongwang, and the little monks of Baihui Temple, Wushen and Wuhe standing aside; ”
Xue Guang was also stunned, Li Yuweng looked back at the Zen Master Kongwu, and couldn't help but scold: "Kongwu, you old bald donkey, Yang Zhi is your junior brother, why didn't you say it earlier." ”
"Empty forget. The rest of the people couldn't hold back their laughter, Yang Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Li Yuweng held Yang Zhi's hand and said: "Whether it is Wang Boyan or Li Lu, he has been conscripted again and again in Xiangzhou, and he has never fought such a battle with the Jin army. Xue Guang is my junior brother, I originally wanted to follow him back to Xiangzhou, but I didn't expect to be stopped in Huazhou. ”
Xue Guang smiled bitterly at Yang Zhi, Yang Zhi patted Xue Guang's shoulder, indicating that he understood Xue Guang's distress; ”
"Dingzen Knife, Mourning Tiger Zen Master was also killed by Yang Zhi?" Li Yuweng was enlightened again, for the death of Mourning Tiger Zen Master and the fearless disappearance, Anyang League investigated for several months under the urging of all sides, and there was no clue at all; now the empty Zen Master said that the Dingzen Knife belonged to Yang Zhi, so naturally Yang Zhi killed Waihu, and this matter could not be concealed from anyone. Yang Zhi nodded, called Wu Song, and directly handed the Dingzen knife to Wu Song and asked, "Are you afraid of the trouble in the future?"
With Yang Zhi's current identity, there will not be many people who dare to seek revenge on Yang Zhi from the old friends of the Mourning Tiger Zen Master, but there will definitely be no fewer people who want to snatch the Dingzen knife from Wu Song's hands. ”
Yang Zhi laughed, took Li Yuweng's hand and said: "Master Li Zhuang, mourning, the war between the two countries, you have to look at the long run, take care of your body, there is still time, tell me about the situation in this area of Anyang." ”
After listening to Li Yuweng's words, Yang Zhi learned that the Anyang League had been torn apart after Wang Ming's death, and that Wang Boyan, Liang Yangzu and others had secretly co-opted them, and many of Wang Ming's old subordinates had gone to Yunzhong under Yue Fei's subordinates, and almost all of the three conscriptions that stayed in the local area had been transferred, one was that the prefect Wang Boyan had taken away 3,000 elite soldiers, and now they were under the tent of King Kang; martial arts doctor Liu Hao had taken away 4,000 people, and Xiangzhou student Li Qiong had taken away 700 people and all of them had gone to Bianliang.
Now the people who stay around Xiangzhou, in addition to following Zhang, there is also a team of Zhao Shilong's brothers, Zhao Shilong's team is a clan, and Zhao Shihui is a distant relative of Zhao Shihui over there, Zhao Shilong is the army pulled up by Li Kan, who killed his boss Bingma and Ran Ling, which caused the opposition of many local officials, which is also the reason why Zhang Suo and Wang Ping can easily win the popularity of Xiangzhou officials.
Yang Zhi pondered for a moment and asked, "Is Master Li Zhuang familiar with Zhao Shilong?"
Li Yuweng smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, Zhao Shilong and that Li Qiong have both learned martial arts from me, but Zhao Shilong sent a post to name me and asked me to send someone to help, and then provide some military pay and food, my words may not be useful." However, Li Qiong is in Huazhou, under Zhao Shiyan. ”
Xue Guang added: "Zhao Shiyan is the commander stationed in Baima, Du Chong fled and stayed as a scapegoat, he didn't dare to return to Bianliang, nor did he dare to fight with the Jin people, so he hid in the countryside." ”
