Chapter I, Section 4, The Rebellion of the Inner Latitude (I) 182

The Rebellion of the Inner Latitude

It was just dark, and I saw Shaur leading people to Qiling Temple to find Ren Tianqi.

As soon as Ren Tianqi saw Shaur, he sat up in shock and scolded angrily: "What are you doing when you don't run back from the front-line camp?"

Shaur bowed down and said hurriedly: "Back to the master, today is the morning sky has not seen bright light, and the county lord with dozens of guards forcibly crossed the Huai River bridge to the north. The villain saw that the county lord was crying all the way, and saw Ren Yong and Ren Xing holding the master's order, he didn't know what was going on, and he didn't dare to stop it, but he didn't know in his heart, so he handed over the military affairs to Tuolink, and rushed back overnight to report that the lord was coming. ”

When Ren Tianqi heard this, he only felt dizzy and fell heavily on the bed, unable to speak for a long time.

Everyone rushed forward to rescue and comfort.

Where did Shaul dare to get up without authorization, lying there and probing and said: "The villain is afraid that something will happen to the border pass, so he has ordered someone to send a letter to General Di of Sizhou to tell him to close the gate of Sizhou and strengthen his defense. The villain has also asked Tuolinke to block the passage on the river, no longer let one man and one horse cross the river, and asked him to send 2,000 troops out of the bridge and cross the river ten miles north to live, just in case. ”

Ren Tianqi slowly turned his head, frowned, and said softly: "Why are you doing this? You are doing a good job, do you think that the old prince is no longer trustworthy?"

Shaul kowtowed again and again, and hurriedly argued: "The villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense, and the villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense." It's just that Jin Bing has been transferred recently, and the villain is worried about changes, and the villain just didn't understand it and rushed back overnight!"

Ren Tianqi nodded, turned his head to Dong Xue and said, "Return to the General's Mansion quickly." ”

The group returned to the General's Mansion in Yangzhou City, and Ren Tianqi called the generals and captains in Yangzhou to hold a pre-military meeting overnight.

Ren Tianqi looked around at the generals and said: "I heard General Shaur come back and say that the old prince said some time ago that he had gone north to return to the imperial capital to meet the golden lord Shengshang, and the front-line military affairs were handed over to the left deputy capital marshal Wan Yan Haoming for the time being. Wanyan Haoming recently sent 5,000 newly formed elite soldiers to Suzhou---- and transferred Pengcheng's general army Long Kemu, and added 20,000 troops to the second city of Suzhou in Xuzhou. Let's talk about it, what does Yan Haoming want to do?"

None of the generals said anything.

A little red Wen Tingyu is also called to hang up the marching map.

Ren Tianqi propped his head in his hand and said, "The former general is in charge of the military orders, so please tell me how the two sides are arranging their respective military horses at the moment?"

Wen Tingyu nodded, stepped forward to the map, and gestured: "

Our army almost never stationed military horses in Huaihebei and Xuhuai Prefectures, but only stationed 2,000 infantry troops and 3,000 horse troops in Sizhou City, which were only used to collect and suppress the people's rebellion and escort grass grain and money, and had no responsibility for defense, and Di Wei was the chief military officer;

In the old camp area on the south bank of the Huai River, there are 5,000 infantry troops and 3,000 horse troops, which are responsible for protecting the bridge and aiding Sizhou, and are commanded by General Shaul Tuolink;

In Gaoyou, 5,000 lightly armored horse troops and 8,000 infantry troops were stationed in Gaoyou, and they were responsible for aiding Huai to protect the territory, with Wei Yingqian as the main general and Ren Zhi and Yong as the deputy generals;

In Xinghua, there were 10,000 horse troops and 5,000 archers stationed in Xinghua, with no fixed responsibilities, led by Wei Yingkun and Ren Li;

In Hailing, there were 5,000 tiger troops, led by Gong Ming;

4,000 horse troops were stationed in the East China Sea, led by the old general Ren,

5,000 Mongolian troops and 5,000 infantry troops were stationed in Tongzhou, and they were responsible for the sneak attack of soldiers and horses arriving in Suzhou in the south and aiding Yangzhou in the west, under the command of General Yuan;

stationed 5,000 heavily armored infantry troops and 5,000 archers along the Yangtze River;

In Yangzhou, Guangling also stationed 5,000 Mongolian troops, 5,000 tiger guards, 5,000 heavily armored horse troops, and 5,000 personal guards;

There are 90,000 soldiers inside and outside. ”

Wen Tingyu said: "The old prince of the Dajin Kingdom has stationed 100,000 troops and horses in three places on the other side of the Tongyang Huai River: there are 10,000 infantry troops stationed in Suzhou City, 5,000 archers, and 5,000 new tripping horse troops, and the main general will be Wei Lin;

There were 20,000 infantry troops stationed in Pengcheng, 40,000 new heavily armored horse infantry troops, and the original general general Long Kemu was transferred, and now ten generals led by Wanyan Haoming are in charge.

In Xuzhou, there were 10,000 infantry troops, 10,000 horse troops, and the guard general Yang Penghui. In particular, there are a large number of ordnance, grain and grass in Xuzhou City to supply Pengsu and Suzhou, especially the four thousand grassland horses that have been newly transported a few days ago. ”

Ren Tianqi raised his head and glanced at the generals again, and said slowly: "There are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck. At the moment, although there is no major change between Daikin and me, the situation is not good and optimistic. The old prince suddenly returned to Beijing to report his post and Wanyan Haoming transferred troops to the south to press, which is said to be related to the recent monopoly of power by the gold lord and the final resentment, and it cannot but be said that it is the greatest deterrent for my Xuzhou soldiers at the moment. In particular, the 5,000 stumbling horse army newly transferred from Suzhou is obviously aimed at my 10,000 Mongolian army, 10,000 heavy armored army, and 20,000 horse army. For this reason, we should take precautions, the above armament does not need to be changed for the time being, and the generals are also invited to return to their respective camps overnight, and those who do not have the order of the generals are not allowed to return to Yangzhou and leave the barracks without authorization. ”

Each of them was ordered to return to his camp.

Ren Tianqi returned to the back and called Shaur again, inviting a little red and Tang Shengzhi. As soon as a few people sat down, they saw the winter snow soul rushing in, and said in a hurry: "Master, master, the tiger talisman placed there is gone!" When he looked up, he saw several people in the room, and he was busy standing still, panting.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out, and they all looked at Ren Tianqi in a daze.

Ren Tianqi stood up in shock when he heard this, sweat beads appeared on his face, his shoulders trembled slightly, his hand pointed at Dongxue, counted the dots, and said hurriedly: "You, you, what are you doing, why are you still standing here after losing the tiger talisman?"

Dongxue fell to the ground with a "plop" and cried: "I usually carry it with me, and I hide it in the room when I don't bring it." A few days ago, because I was busy going to the Qiling Temple, I didn't take it with me, but as soon as I came back, I rushed back to the room and saw that the tiger charm was gone. ”

Ren Tianqi clenched his steel teeth and said angrily: "Who knows where to hide?"

Dongxue cried: "How can such an extraordinary thing be known to outsiders, just the county lord, Qiuyue and I." ”

Ren Tianqi said: "Then have you asked Qiu Yue?"

Dongxue cried: "Hasn't Chun Tao and Qiu Yue already accompanied the county lord to the north?"

Ren Tianqi was so angry that he slapped the platform, and the mahogany wooden platform fell in response, and the four platform legs were broken.

Dong Xue was about to rush forward to clean up, Ren Tianqi impatiently waved his hand to tell Dong Xue to retreat, and said hatefully: "How is this good, what is the county lord going to do?

Tang Shengzhi said with a smile: "Brother Xian's words are serious, how can the county lord be that kind of person!"

A little red smiled and said, "Brother Xian, don't panic, isn't there three tiger talismans? Didn't Brother Wei repeatedly tell you to place these tiger talismans separately?"

Ren Tianqi patted his head and said with a wry smile: "That's it, look at my surname." Dong Xue's side was half a silver tiger talisman, which could only mobilize the 5,000 Mongolian troops in Tongzhou. There are also two half-tigers, which I put next to my eldest brother!"

The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

Ren Tianqi turned around and sat down, and said, "Second brother, it seems that Dajin Guo is worried about my Xuzhou soldiers, can you do it?"

A little red shook his head and said: "It won't be so fast, the old prince holds the military power, the throne is unbreakable, and it echoes us from afar; Besides, my Xuzhou soldiers have always been subordinate to Jin, and they have never violated anything, let alone violated them!"

Ren Tianqi sighed, shook his head slowly, and said: "Since ancient times, the most difficult thing to guess is the mind of the monarch. It may be that the existence of my Xuzhou soldiers has hindered the talent of the gold master. Perhaps it is related to the recent abolition of the Marshal's Mansion and the replacement of the Privy Council in charge of the military. Presumably, Daikin will make a big move in the near future, but now the little brother can't get on the horse and can't charge into battle!"

A little red nodded gloomily, and glanced at Ren Tianqi who didn't make a sound, his face full of sadness.

Indeed, in terms of swordsmanship, a little red can be called a generation of masters, and will eventually become a generation of sword sects; leading troops to fight and training the army, Wen Tingyu is also familiar with the old horse, and I believe it will not be much trouble; but if there is no Ren Tianqi in the army, without Ren Tianqi's shouting and soldiers in front of him, relying only on the skills and minds of the brothers and the ** ten thousand Xuzhou soldiers, it is really impossible to say that they want to start a war with the Jin and Song families at the same time, or strive for neutrality; the future of Xuzhou soldiers is indeed extremely slim and dangerous.
