Chapter 633
[Last night, when setting automatic uploading, it was wrong, and the book was posted at 5 pm tomorrow. It happened to be something happened during the day. I just realized that I am really sorry to everyone, Lao Gao apologized!]
=========
The gate of Suyu County opened, and Zhai Hong led two thousand soldiers to kill him. He roared like thunder and waved his sword to kill hundreds of Sui soldiers who were about to escape.
The war horse stepped over the paper man, and there was also a fat pig made of paper that said 'Grandfather Zhai Hong'. Although this was a child's trick, it had an immediate effect on a cruel and irritable person like Zhai Hong. Zhai Hong was so angry that he lost his mind, yelled, urged the horse to run wildly, and left two thousand soldiers far behind.
At this time, the young lieutenant in the leadership sneered. He was not the lieutenant, but the general Su Dingfang. Although he was the only general riding a horse, he had two generals who were bravest in the three armies, one was Yuchi Gong and the other was Xiong Kuohai. Both of them could act as generals and mixed among the soldiers in small school clothes and armor. Li Jing had already figured out Zhai Hong's background. Zhai Hong hated others to insult his parents and ancestors the most in his life. When he was sixteen, someone insulted his father as a pig, but was killed by him, and he went to the world since then.
Moreover, Li Jing knew that Zhai Hong was arrogant and conceited, simple-minded, and never took anyone seriously in the Wagang Army. How could a small military officer, Bing Yuanzhen, be persuaded to insult his father?
Su Dingfang was calm and he walked around the golden-backed tiger-toothed knife and immediately wrapped around Zhai Hong's big knife like gel. Even if Zhai Hong's arms had a thousand pounds of force, he could not use it.
Immediately afterwards, Su Dingfang slashed thirty-six swords like lightning, and suddenly the cold lights were shining up and down, left and right, and the blades were as open as mercury, killing Zhai Hong to block the left and right, and was in a hurry. Zhai Hong then realized that the other party's young lieutenant was much better than his martial arts. He was frightened and sweated. He looked around and saw that the five hundred Sui soldiers had completely changed. They were still listless just now, but now they became energetic and murderous intent. They all seemed to have strong combat power. They rushed up to intercept their two thousand soldiers.
Zhai Hong knew that he had really been fooled, so he took the time to escape. At this time, Yuchi Gong and Xiong Kuohai each held a 100-pound copper stick, surrounded him one on the left and one on the right, so that he had no chance to escape.
At this moment, Zhai Hong suddenly recognized Yuchi Gong, which scared him so much that he shivered suddenly. Su Dingfang grabbed the loophole. He reached out to grab his strait and pulled him off the war horse. Xiong Kuohai stepped on his back with one foot. Zhai Hong was in pain and could not move. Several soldiers quickly tied him up.
Yuchi Gong roared and turned around and rushed into the enemy army. He was like a god of killing descending to earth. Wherever the copper stick passed, both people and horses were beaten to fly out, their muscles and bones were broken, their brains burst, and the soldiers in Wagang were killed screamed and wailed, and they all stumbled and fled. At this time, someone recognized Yuchi Gong and shouted in fear, "It's the giant god!"
Yuchi Gong's nickname is awesome to the world. When the soldiers of the two thousand Wagang Army heard that the giant spirit god Yuchi Gong appeared, their hearts of savior faded and turned around and ran towards the city.
Yuchi Gong didn't chase him, and cursed with a smile: "These turtle lambs run faster than rabbits!"
Su Dingfang glanced at Zhai Hong who was tied up strongly and smiled and said, "If you catch a big fish, you can hand over to Sima."
On the city wall, Bing Yuanzhen could see clearly that the Sui army dug a trap and easily caught Zhai Hong. It seemed simple, but it was extremely accurate. The other party obviously had figured out Zhai Hong. He couldn't help but lament in his heart, why did he explain to the king when Zhai Hong was arrested?
At this moment, a cavalry rushed over and shouted under the city, "My general has a letter to Bing to join the army!"
He took the bow and shot an arrow letter to the top of the city. A soldier picked it up and rushed to present it to Bing Yuanzhen. Bing Yuanzhen looked at it and asked him to lead his army to retreat north within half an hour, otherwise he would send Zhai Hong's head.
Bing Yuanzhen had no choice but to order: "The whole army retreated north!"
A quarter of an hour later, the 10,000 Wagang Army left Suyu County and retreated northward. Li Jing looked at the Wagang Army who was fleeing in a panic from afar, and sneered in his heart. With Zhai Hong in his hand, he was not afraid of Zhai Rang coming to provoke.
After Yu Wenhe controlled Jiangdu and all the officials and ministers, he did not immediately lead the army north because he did not subdue a Sui army force, that is, the more than 20,000 Jianghuai army led by General Chen Len.
Chen Len originally wiped out the troops of Chen Faxing and Meng Haigong in the Jiangnan area, but the bandits in the Jiangnan area were very tenacious. Yu Juluo and Tu Wanxu lost one after another. Although Wang Shichong once wiped out the troubles in Jiangnan for a time with cruel means, he soon rebelled and started a rebellion. Chen Len repeatedly suppressed the troops, and even Yang Guang lost confidence. He stopped suppressing bandits in Jiangnan and ordered Chen Len to retreat northwards, and replaced Zhang Xuan's Jianghuai recruitment position, responsible for defending the security of Jiangdu on the periphery.
Although Yu Wenji had mastered the Xiaoguo Army, there was no Jianghuai Army that did not control Chen Ling. When the Jiangdu Mutiny occurred, Chen Ling immediately concentrated his troops and stationed 26,000 soldiers in Hailing County, fifty miles east of Jiangdu City. He stared at Yu Wenji's every move and threatened that if Yu Wenji dared to be rude to the queen, he would slaughter the Yuwen family in the world.
Yu Wenhe sent people to deliver letters to Chen Ling twice, promising to appoint him as the Prince of Lujiang, but Chen Ling did not respond at all, which made Yu Wenhe very distressed.
Yu Wen and his heart were extremely irritable at this time and no longer interested in imitating the emperor to seek pleasure. He paced back and forth in the Fengqi Pavilion of Jiangdu Palace, his heart was as heavy as lead. He had already received news that Zhang Xuan's tens of thousands of troops blocked the Huai River and cut off his way north.
Chen Len was never willing to surrender to him. Once he led his army north, Zhang Xuan was ahead and Chen Len was behind him. He would face the threat of being attacked from both sides and behind him, and he would not be able to deal with it.
At this time, Yu Wenhua and his heart were panicked and confused. He didn't know what to do. He was good at frame-up and deceiving the emperor and concealing him, but when he asked him to lead troops to fight, he was in a dark state and had no idea.
Yu Wenhua was extremely irritated and turned around and shouted angrily: "Why haven't the Secretary of Yuan come yet?"
Yuan Shangshu was Yuan Min. He was named the Minister of Personnel by Yu Wenhua and Duke Yong. He was also the military advisor of Yu Wenhua and the government affairs of the court were all thrown to Yuan Min for treatment. He just wanted to have fun and enjoy the extravagant life of the emperor.
As soon as Yu Wenhua and his words finished, Yuanmin appeared at the door and smiled and said, "Why are your highness worried?"
Of course, Yuan Min did not really assist Yu Wenji. He and his clan brother Yuan Li took on the important task assigned to them by the Yuan family, safely brought the Xiaoguo army back to Guanzhong, and then killed the Yuwen brothers, turning the 80,000 Xiaoguo army into the Yuan family's army, so that they could compete with Li Yuan.
So at least before returning to Guanzhong, his goal with Yu Wenji was the same, that is, to bring wealth, army, officials and the empress dowager to return to Guanzhong smoothly.
Yu Wenji, like seeing a savior, hurriedly came up and said, "Now there is Zhang Xuan in front and Chen Ling behind. The army is short of food. Why don't I worry? Please teach me!"
Yuanmin sat down with a swagger and said with a smile: "Actually, only Zhang Xuan is patient, and Chen Ling's problem is easy to solve."
Yu Wenji was immediately overjoyed. Chen Ling was imminent to solve the problem. Of course he could not ask for it. He quickly sat opposite him and asked, "Let me talk about how to solve Chen Ling first?"
"Have your Highness ever thought about why Chen Ling has not expressed his words yet and has not accepted the throne promised by His Highness?"
Yu Wenji shook his head, "I just can't see through him!"
Yuan Min smiled and said, "Chen Len is from Lujiang, and he is definitely willing to continue to stay in Jianghuai. Your Highness must be clear about this. Secondly, he may not necessarily want the title of prince. I suggest that it is best to let the Empress Dowager appoint him as Duke of Jing and the prefect of Jiangdu, so that he can continue to lead his army to stay in Jianghuai. But all this has nothing to do with Your Highness, it must be the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager. I want to do these two points well, and Chen Len's problem will be solved."
Yu Wenji said angrily: "After all, he still doesn't want to cooperate with me."
Yuanmin sneered in his heart, who would be willing to cooperate with Yu Wen and such a traitor? Even his ancestors would be shamed. If it weren't for the great cause of the Yuan family, he wouldn't pay attention to Yu Wen and such a fool. Yuanmin hypocritically comforted him: "It's not that he doesn't want to cooperate with Your Highness, but he is not convinced by Your Highness. His Highness was far inferior to his qualifications, but now he has become his boss. Anyone would feel uncomfortable. Moreover, he respects the Queen Mother very much. If the Queen Mother gives an order, he will naturally accept it."
Yu Wenhua and thought about it, Chen Ling had a good relationship with his father and had even received support from his father. He really did not have the need to hate him, and it should be because of his mentality.
Yu Wenhua and felt relieved, so he took the empress dowager's seal from the table and said with a smile: "The empress dowager told me not to disturb her, so he gave me the big seal directly. If I issue an edict, I will issue an edict to him according to the words of the Secretary of the People."
He immediately ordered: "Come Feng Deyi, and the Empress Dowager will issue an imperial edict!"
