"Just showing up in front of the formation, the thieves were dispersed in public, and a right-wing general of the thieves was forced to surrender... There is no such thing as a man in the world..."
Yang Xinghan, who was just named the governor of Luzhou (Hefei, Anhui) by the court, and eager to perform and make a name for meritorious deeds, looked at with some envy and sighs, the grass thieves who disarmed the city of Shuzhou in hordes, And the Huainan battalions that are being retreated.
The guards, regiments, and native soldiers who originally gathered these places together were fought precariously or even begging for help; in front of the Huainan marching army led by Zhang Da's face, they were like chicken tiles. The dog is generally vulnerable to a blow, or collapsed after hearing the wind.
"It's all about the cheapness of picking up ours..."
Zhu Yanshou, his wife and brother with big eyes and loud voice beside him, was a little bit angry.
"If it weren't for the grass thief who has been fighting with us, the teacher is tired..."
"You can't say that,"
Yang Xinghan waved his hand cautiously.
"What kind of character Zhang Chaoji is, what kind of person we are, there is nothing like in the sky and the ground... Speaking of the grass thieves fighting in our hometown in Luzhou, we must have touched Zhang. It's the light to beat his old man..."
Yang Xinghan has his own reasons for being cautious in words and actions. He was the son of a poor farmer who lost his father since childhood; he was born tall and powerful, able to lift a hundred catties and travel hundreds of miles a day, so he has the nicknames "Yang Hanzi" and "Yang Changjiao"; when he grows up Because of starvation and no food, he participated in the popular uprising in Jianghuai in the first year of Qianfu, but was arrested after failure.
The governor of Luzhou at that time was now serving as the regular attendant of Yousanqi and Zheng Di, the attendant of the East Palace. He was relieved because of his strange appearance. So he applied for the state soldier Yuanfa Shoushuofang (now Lingwu in Ningxia) thought that he had been redeemed and soon promoted. For the sake of the team, I met and gathered a group of township parties and tribes.
When the guard period expires and returns, the provincial governor Zheng Di has been transferred away; and the local officer in charge hates him, and secretly obstructs him in the document to ask him to go out again. Then he took the opportunity to make a fuss and cut off the head of the officer, and then took advantage of this to raise troops in the head camp.
Lang Youfu, who was the governor of Luzhou at the time, was unable to stop it and abandoned the city and fled. He was able to occupy Luzhou and claim that the eighth camp of Lujiang was a master of soldiers and horses; then he had no time to take care of him with the grass thieves ravaging most of the officers and soldiers in the southeast. At that time, it took several years for the tutu and the town soldiers to take advantage of the situation in the vicinity, before they were able to eradicate dissidents and gradually controlled most of the situation in Luzhou.
Next, Gao Pian specializes in the town of Huainan, and soothes a large number of grass thieves and local forces; he was also dismissed as a Luzhou tooth general and temporarily took charge of the state city of Lujiang; until recently, the grass thieves outside the ridge went north again. Raging the Jianghan and advancing in Jiangxi and Jiangdong; and the soldiers were forced to the city of Luzhou, which was subordinate to Huainan Road, and he was able to make an exceptional appointment as Luzhou governor as the responsibility of defending the land.
Then, in order to preserve the site and the township party headquarters, he also naturally fought against the pioneers of the grass thief for several games; for the time being, they had their own victories and won a lot. But afterwards, under the attack of more grass thieves who followed, they soon lost their troops and couldn't afford it, and could only retreat into Lujiang while holding on to the city while struggling to ask for help from the side.
But what he didn't expect was that this time he came to aid, he was actually the number one general under the command of the Lord of Huainan, Gao Linggong, and the prestigious Zhang Dajie personally led the army; this couldn't help but he was a little frightened and trembling. After all, this is a legendary luxury man who has been almost unbeaten since his debut. He has followed Gao Ling and fought most of the world.
Moreover, he has always been known for his harsh military management. Since Sui Linggong took office in Huainan, there have been more than 20 generals and officials of different backgrounds and backgrounds. Everyone lost his head or ministry in his hands; and In the meantime, the number of unsatisfactory things that were thrown off and disposed of was even more frequent.
Among them, there are even some high-ranking officials such as a state governor and defense officer, or local military generals with real power such as regiments, soldiers and horses; they were recruited by him just because of the lack of seriousness in the army and the lack of deadlines. To say that if you kill, you will kill for nothing and don't dare anyone to say more.
As far as he knows, there are naturally people who have lost their jobs and succumbed to the camp in Yangzhou to cry in front of Gao Ling's public account. But Gao Linggong, who has always been a generous elder, also means that the other party has always acted so dedicatedly, and he is really helpless; but can only comfort and comfort the future person to stay in the account, and thus receive a generous amount of money. Suspend your post, and plan for dispatch and plan in the future.
Such a powerful and prominent figure suddenly appeared under his control with a large army, and Yang Xinghan couldn't help being cautious with all kinds of surprises and speculations. I was afraid that I would inadvertently offend or offend this person, and at least he would be dismissed from the official position, and at the same time, he would end up with the death of his family.
That is to say, Zhu Yanshou, his wife and brother who is as straightforward in appearance as he is in the inside, who was born in a township party and a colleague, can put the grievances into his mouth so heartlessly. Thinking of this, Yang Xinghan couldn't help but smiled bitterly. It's really unfavorable for himself.
But thinking about things the other way round, at least this time is also an opportunity for him who hasn't made progress on the road, such as the opportunity to show his face and make a name in front of Gao Linggong. This is how much money he had slipped before, and he couldn’t get out of the way to go directly to the listener.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help showing a flattering but brilliant smile, and walked towards Zhang Lin, who was surrounded by army generals with various expressions.
. . . . . .
Yuezhou, in the city of Yueyang on the east side of Dongting Lake, the loyal army general Zhou Yanling from Xuzhou also went up the arty feast in Yueyang Tower, which is known as one of the four famous buildings in the world. Therefore, all the people present here are a little bit of the city. Literati of various colors with fame, background and qualifications.
It’s just that in the expressions of most of them, there are somewhat insincere or forced smiles, unwillingness to eat, and uneasy tastes; because in stark contrast to the "cheers and laughter" upstairs, it is from time to time in the city. Shouting, clamoring and crying; it was the loyal military soldiers who had regained their lost ground, and they were routinely liquidating those civilians who had “passed thieves” during the fall of Yuezhou.
Moreover, this behavior of rewarding sergeants in disguise has been fully carried out to the eleventh day and has not yet ended; the scope has also been gradually derived from Waiguo Taicheng, where the majority of the people are in the Ming Dynasty, to the sub-city of the wealthy and wealthy family such as the officials In the (inner city); even the leading figures from these cities have sent waves of generous gifts, but they have not been able to order him to stop the "clean thief" move.
He is the adopted son of the current loyal army Jiedu envoy Zhou Xi, and also the former soldier and horse envoy of the gods and warriors. He was able to kill the former loyal army Jiedu envoy Xue Neng, and replaced him as one of the important contributors and heroes. 1. Therefore, in the imperial court, on the condition of accepting the fait accompli, it is to send the loyal military commander Zhou Yanling to the south to assist the battle presided over by Liu Hanhong, the Jiedu envoy of Shannan.
In fact, the loyal military army guarding Xuzhou can also be regarded as the grass-thieves headed by Wang and Huang, long-standing opponents and enemies; it can be said that among the many big defeats that the grass-thieves have encountered in the North, there is no shortage of loyal military troops. An active figure; at the same time, the Zhongwu Army is also an important hub and strong town for the imperial court to protect the eastern capital, and it is also one of the famous strong forces in the Northland that has repeatedly defeated other towns.
Of course, the price of being one of the few powers in the world controlled by the imperial court, in addition to the various potential benefits given to Hedi’s Near East capital by the extraordinarily generous clothing and food compared to other towns, there is also that under the vassals of the past. Come out, become more arrogant and arrogant, and the military discipline that the world has criticized. Therefore, after the Zhongwu Army's fierce battle or victory, the after-show program is to routinely indulge the soldiers to scan the city and scrap the streets.
Even when the prime minister is sitting in town, it cannot be changed and can only be slightly restricted; even if the envoy Cui An, who is known as the "Iron-faced Bodhisattva" at the time, can only kill him from the border and return Xuzhou On the way, the loyal army who plundered all around Li Kefeng regarded Li Kefeng as an example and awe, and could not touch their deep-rooted tradition.
This time, being sent by the tribe’s foreign aid to the Shannan Dongdao was able to indulge in arrogance, and only the Shannan Dongdao Jidu as a landlord allowed Liu Jurong to order and restrict it; this time being sent to the south to recover Yuezhou, it might not be unbearable. Tolerate the Shandong province, taking advantage of the potential plan for disasters to move eastward.
Prior to this, these sturdy and incomparable loyal fighters had been ambushed by the grass thief in the field, and easily defeated the grass thief several times their own. The defeated soldiers who chased the grass thief in the tail rushed to the field. In the city, a bloody massacre continued to be launched; its swift and violent momentum, even the united soldiers sent to cooperate and assist in the battle, could not be followed, and it was basically of no use.
In the end, the heads of countless grass thieves and related people who were cut down with the formation built a tens of feet high Jingguan on the spot outside the west gate of Yueyang City, facing the famous scenic spot Junshan Island; therefore, they can be regarded as comfortable and reasonable. With an order to disperse the formation, the small stocks divided into groups of three or five began to "actively collect" the corresponding routine rewards.
And under this generation's personal demonstration by example, the subordinates of the state army who followed have also happily joined the ranks of all sorts of hands-offs for the Zhongwu army.
But now no one dares to stop or discourage them, because those who previously wanted to persuade or negotiate with their status and qualifications have been taken from the mansion by these fierce soldiers as "thieves". The home was ransacked for the crime. Among them, there were even several Feng Weng and former officials, as well as an old official who was dedicated to officialdom.
It’s just on this famous building, which was rumored to be the "Yuejun Building" of the Soochow General Lu Su during the Three Kingdoms period. Although the atmosphere was quite enthusiastic, he made many heads, praising the official army for regaining lost ground and going to Dongting Lake in response to the situation. The poetry of Zhongyanbo is vast and the sky is boundless, but Zhou Yanling always feels that he is not very energetic and brilliant.
Either the meaning is general and the masses, or the rhetoric is clumsy and empty; there is no poetry or prose that he wants enough to make him famous, or the words and sentences that are cited as momentary classics. At any rate, he was also born in Zhenger's Eight Classics Imperial Martial Arts, and he also has a good level and foundation in his rhetoric.
Of course, if these scribes can make a rhetoric that satisfies him, according to his statement, the "clean thief" in the city can't end one or two in advance; therefore, there is one or two in the city that can be called the name Gathered here. But their performance is obviously disappointing.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but miss Li Hanzhi, the governor of Huaizhou who had gone south together and was somewhat congenial. At least the other party has always been very interesting and agreeable, and can match his appetite in every act. Therefore, after Zhou Yanling recovered Yuezhou, he directly transferred the troop-carrying fleet to him as a joint force to dive into Yuetanzhou; now I don't know what the situation is. .
As for the overall situation and strategic subordinates advocated by Shannan Jiedushi Liu Hanhong, what meaning and use is it for him and the loyal military army behind him. For these officials who went to the south to help and aid, only the merits and benefits that were truly grasped in their hands were the most real things.
"Send guests off to the west of Dongting, and the dragon pile is green.
Chen Dian was empty and Wu Cheng was reckless. "
An old scribe who tremblingly held a wine cup and chanted heroically, but accidentally shook his head and shook his head, splashing the drink on his face and clothes, and said unconsciously:
"Spring follows the lake with a deep color, and the wind will make the tide long."
Then, suddenly he heard a loud noise and clamor from a distance; Zhou Yanling couldn't help but frowned and said coldly to the audience:
"You guys stay here for a while, I'll come as soon as I go... These boys are also making a lot of trouble..."
However, when Zhou Yanling flew downstairs and drove away for more than half an hour, everyone present waited and waited. The food and drink were cold and hot, and there was still no sign of anyone turning around.
Then a scribe who was sitting on the edge of the crowd and dozing off was suddenly stepped heavily on his foot by his comrade who had come to fill the count, and grumbled and woke up with pain, and saw that his companion was already terrified and full of fear The face was shocked, but he opened his mouth and made the ho-ho sound;
Then he casually looked at the distance along the fingers of his companions, couldn't help but lost his color and sat down on the ground, screaming dumbfoundedly:
"Good... good... good... many..."
Then someone made fun of him:
"Wen Ruogong painstakingly made the rhetoric, just a few good words that you woke up in your dream...?"
Then the scribe was interrupted, and finally shouted out the rest of the words in a stern tone.
"A lot of warships..."
Most of these people upstairs noticed that on the faintly distant Dongting Lake, a large black ship had arrived. With the golden ring of sunlight penetrating through the clouds, the tops of the ships were armed with swords and guns. The sparkling reflections in the forest have pierced the tranquility and peace of the lake even far away.
At this time, the sound of war drums rumbling from outside the city of Yueyang also faintly returned to the ears of the people upstairs like clouds and fog.
