Chapter 1116 National thieves, military chaos seven
The morning breeze echoed, and the sky gradually became brighter in a mist.
Linfen City, which had been noisy all night, finally returned to its quietness!
The rebellion initiated by dozens of people, oh, it is impossible to be so few. It should be thousands of Hexi knights ordered by the Liao people or Wu Haogu. Under the calm command of Zheng Shuxiang and Liu Du Commander, Cao Zheng, Wang Zheng and other Hedong Army generals led the way and fought hard, they were finally basically pacified. In addition, the thief's head Fengming Mountain was captured alive, hundreds of heads were captured, and dozens of armor were seized.
The conspiracy that Liao people or Wu Haogu, which made the plot to seize Hedong and then swept Henan has been completely shattered!
However, although the thieves in the city were destroyed, the thieves outside the city were coming continuously! Tens of thousands of armored cavalry, countless infantry (of course, infantry only existed in the memorials), took advantage of the opportunity of chaos in Linfen City and headed south from Huoyi and Hongdong, and had already set up formations north of Linfen County.
The small Linfen City has now been exposed in front of the crowded siege army!
Although this army came in a very hurry and did not carry any siege equipment, Linfen City, which had just experienced an internal strife, is impossible to survive under their blades.
At this moment, in the military affairs office of Hedong, Hebei, Youzhou, and other generals in Linfen City were making suggestions for Zheng Juzhong, who had been in a hurry to be in a row.
If you keep the green mountains here, don’t you be afraid of burning firewood!
"The Prime Minister, the Prime Minister has been interrogated clearly! The Hexi Army general Feng Mingshan was originally from Liao, and was a retainer of Ma Renwang, the prime minister of the Southern Prefecture of Liao. A few years ago, Ma Zhi, the nephew of Ma Renwang, and the governor of Fengguo Army of Chenzhou, Liao, sneaked into the Dajiao Group and gained the trust of Zhang Xuanshu, the Northwest. However, he was still working hard for the Liao Kingdom in secret! If it were not for the Prime Minister's wise eyes and timely detection of his conspiracy, the entire Hedong would have been lost..."
Liu Guangshi, the son of Liu Yanqing, the general commander of the Third Route Military Affairs Department, hurried into the inner hall at this time and loudly reported the result of the interrogation of Fengmingshan to Zheng Juzhong.
Fengmingshan is now a treasure that cannot be killed! He is one of the masterminds of the Jinzhou Incident. What is the truth? What is his two words? Don’t even think about it. The boss of the Hexi Army and the Great Education Corps is Zhang Yuan! That is the son of the murderer Zhang Dun, who is the unique skill of frame-up and throwing dirty water. Will he be worse than Zheng Juzhong? Moreover, Zhang Yuan has a backstage in the palace, and is the most respected sister-in-law of the emperor. There is also an extremely cunning Ji Yi, who is Zhang Yuan’s niece and son-in-law and ally. If you want to give Zhang Yuan a hat of framing troops, can you do it without any real evidence?
So after recovering the open space outside the gate that could be used to cut off the head, Liu Yanqing did not ask Fengmingshan to be taken out, but asked his son to "examine the good words".
However, Fengmingshan was also a man, and he refused to throw dirty water on Zhang Yuan, but instead took the charge of being a spy from the Liao Kingdom.
And it's not an ordinary spy, but a big spy!
Zheng Juzhong and Liu Yanqing both knew about the peace talks between Liao and Song dynasties. Liao Kingdom soon became a friendly country, and friendly spies were not allowed to be cut off at will...
"Shuzheng," said Zheng Juzhong, a goose-feather fan, who was shaking his goose-feather fan next to him, and whispered, "If the Feng surnamed says the same thing when he arrives at Dali Temple, you will probably have a trip to Haizhou."
Liu Yanqing, who was standing beside him, also said: "Shuxiong, it's still time to go out of the city with the dog son!"
Liu Yanqing did not come to Hedong to take office without any help, and two or three hundred good players could still be used. In addition, there were more than a thousand personal soldiers in the General Leader's Military Affairs Department, and as long as he sacrificed his life, he could still protect Zheng Juzhong and run away.
But as soon as they ran away, Linfen City fell. The situation in Hedong was naturally so bad that it was uncontrollable.
However, for Liu Yanqing, the result was actually not bad. Hedong was thrown into Hexi and the knights colluded with the Liao people to rebel. Liu Yanqing, as the chief commander of the Military Affairs Department of the General Leader, was of course responsible for being in a misunderstanding, but the charge of "missing military opportunities and not saving Taiyuan" could not be deducted.
Most of the Taiyuan City has not been lost yet!
In addition, Liu Yanqing also tried his best to capture Fengmingshan, the culprit who colluded with the Liao gang. Although he could not completely resist, he could always compensate for part of it, right? He probably would have a punishment of several levels of demotion and retaining the power of the army.
Not only can I lose my head, but I can even keep my family property! But I also became Zheng Shuxiang’s confidant, and maybe there will be a great opportunity to use it in the future...
Of course, saving Zheng Juzhong's life is the top priority.
"Will that guy dare to say that even after he goes to Dali Temple?" Zheng Juzhong asked with a frown.
"Dare!" Liu Guangshi, who had a smart and capable face, replied, "The official has already told him everything he has. He is now a thief bite, and he is the best choice to bite Yelu Yanxi. Yelu Yanxi cannot confront him, and Ma Renwang and Ma Zhi will definitely not be able to catch him... Isn't it that what we are saying? And the court is now discussing peace with the Liao Kingdom and will not kill him."
Zheng Juzhong breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Guangshi is indeed good at doing things! The blame is pretty, and he does not offend Zhang Yuan. As long as Zhang Yuan does not make any effort, it will be easy for him to get rid of the crime. Because he is also someone in the palace! Zhao Ji's favorite Concubine Zheng and Zheng Juzhong have such a distant relative. In terms of seniority, he is also the cousin of Concubine Zheng. Although Concubine Zheng is favored by the harem now and there is no need for Zheng Juzhong, he will not let him stay in Haizhou for the rest of his life...
"Okay!" Zheng Juzhong is worthy of being the prime minister who commands the three armies, and he is still very decisive in his actions. "Liu Du, when can your people be prepared?"
"Report to the Prime Minister," Liu Yanqing said, "they can protect the Prime Minister at any time."
"Go away now!" Zheng Juzhong paused, "I'll call Qian Gongzai... I'll set off in half an hour! Let's move troops in Jiangzhou, collect the troops, and fight with the bandits again!"
"Here!"
All the generals in the hall breathed a sigh of relief and replied with a loud bang.
...
The breakthrough of Zheng Juzhong, Qian Gai, Liu Yanqing and others was of course very smooth. Because Zhang Zhuo and Su Zhihuan had no siege equipment and had less than 10,000 troops (including auxiliary soldiers), they could not do anything to the city walls of Linfen. So they adopted the tactic of surrounding the three ques and one plus scaring people, scaring Zheng Dashumi away and knocked down.
When Zheng Juzhong ran, the people in Linfen City were in chaos, and no one had the heart to defend, and they all rushed to escape. The city was broken without fighting!
"Report to Guanjun, the teacher, Zheng Juzhong and Qian Gai have all run away. Jinzhou City is ours now, hahaha..."
The one who laughed and reported was Han Shizhong. Another loyal and brave minister who vowed to defend the Song Dynasty to the death in time and space has now become a vassal lord.
Because he had made contributions to Linfen City before, he received the first batch of rewards for entering the city. Now he has gained full of spoils and has left the city to report to Zhang Zhuo and Su Zhihuan.
Zhang Zhuo asked: "Have you found Feng Guanjun?"
"I haven't found it. It seems that my soul has returned to heaven and the truth is here!" Han Shizhong asked again, "Teacher, what should we do next? Do we have to go all the way into Kaifeng Prefecture?"
Entering Kaifeng Prefecture? Zhang Zhuo thought to himself: What are you going to do? Do you still have to seize the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop?
It seems not easy, right? After all, there are only 5,000 cavalry under my command. To enter Kaifeng Prefecture, you have to fight many prefectures and counties, and you have to cross the Yellow River. Although Kaifeng Prefecture is empty and there is no force worth mentioning. However, the foolish monarch can still transfer troops from Hebei to support the king.
The Han family in Xiangzhou still has tens of thousands of available soldiers. Once they enter Kaifeng, they will be in charge of the Han family and they will be the wedding dress for others.
In addition, Wu Haogu in Youzhou is also quite strong. He has been planning to do anything for a long time, probably hoping that who can enter Kaifeng Prefecture first and become this traitor?
"No!" Zhang Zhuo is not a politically incompetent person, "We are not traitors, we are just opposing the cenification of Hexi.
Now that we have already challenged the traitors, we will give the official to express our thoughts. And we should go back to Hexi to defend our country."
His ambition is just the King of Hexi, and he was satisfied with taking over the territory that originally belonged to Xixia. He entered the Central Plains, haha, he had to wait for the right time and place! If Wu Haogu could not hold back, he would be willing to be a loyal minister of the Song Dynasty!
"Return to Hexi?" Su Zhihuan frowned, "How to go back? Are you going to Guanzhong? The Western Army is afraid that we won't let us live? Now the Western Army has six new generals, all of whom are recruited reserve veterans, so it is not easy to deal with."
"Let's go to Linfu Road." Zhang Zhuo said, "It's Shuofang Road out of Linfu Road. Shuofang Army has a good relationship with us, so it shouldn't be stopped."
The three armies of Hexi, Lingzhou and Shuofang are one to some extent. Moreover, Shuofang is also on the list of ceasing, so the Shuofang army is naturally willing to make trouble for the Hexi army and disrupt the ceasing.
"That's better than Taiyuan!" Han Shizhong said, "How can Taiyuan go through?"
"Break through!" Zhang Zhuo gritted his teeth, "We have 5,000 cavalry, are you still afraid that we can't pass through the west bank of the Fen River?"
"That's right!" Su Zhihuan thought for a while, "There are four generals in Hongdong County, what should I do?"
The four generals in Hongdong County were led by Gao Shixuan, the chief of the Hedong Road capital. They did not send troops to fight with the Hexi knights, but guarded the camps and acted as turtles. So Zhang Zhuo and Su Zhihuan ignored them and only went to Linfen County to kill the traitors.
"Gao Shixuan didn't want to fight us, so we didn't make things difficult for him." Zhang Zhuo said, "After all, he is from the Gao family, so he always has to give some face... In addition, the memorial I gave to the official family can also be handed over to him.
We in Hexi oppose traitors’ cemetery of land and not the officials.”
In fact, these two things are completely contradictory. Isn’t it Zhao Ji who wants to cede land? However, the Song Dynasty has not yet had enough energy, so Zhang Zhuo dared not be Dong Zhuo.
Chapter completed!
