-----------------------------------------------------------
Qin Zongshou, the leader of Langya Village, was more than seven feet long and ugly. He used a spear made of iron, weighing 36 kilograms. He was a mercenary in his early years, and later became a horse thief. He had the courage to resist ten thousand men and was nicknamed Langya. More than 20,000 people in Langya Village occupied Qinglang Mountain. In recent years, he had the idea of fighting Langya Village. However, Qin Zongshou relied on the dangers of Qinglang Mountain and the fierceness of his brothers, and he would repel the enemy that would attack him in the future.
Li Guan came to surrender, but Qin Zong refused without considering it. Although he heard that Li Guan was the newly conferred Antonian Protector of the court, he was not willing to give up the current free life of the mountain king, but he was a subordinate of others.
Standing on the wall of the village, he saw the soldiers at the foot of the mountain, the guns were like forests, and the flags were like seas, and he couldn't help but change his color slightly. Seeing that even the flags of Duli Town were among them, his brows frowned.
The drums and horns were roaring, and the soldiers and horses at the foot of the mountain began to come. Qin Zongshou ordered to seize the camp and defend, preparing to repel the invading soldiers as before.
The East Army at the foot of the Shanxia Town did not attack, but just led the formation at the foot of the mountain. Five or six thousand troops from various Liaodong troops rushed to the mountain like a swarm. The one who led the troops to Duli Town this time was Wang Pu, the city lord. Since the last battle was forced to negotiate peace, Duli Town is now extremely weak. Especially after the Zhendong Army occupied Qingni and Beisha City, Qingni City occupied Qingni Port. It was very close to them and threatened them at any time. Beisha City even blocked the passage from Duli Town to the hinterland of Liaodong. It can be said that in its strategic position, Duli Town is now completely surrounded by Zhendong Army and stuck its throat.
What's even worse is that Li Guan was actually appreciated by the emperor, promoted to the general, and was granted the title of Duke of the County. He also appointed Song Wei, the general of Ziqing, as his adopted father, became the governor of Dengzhou, and now he led the army of Zhendong. He was also awarded the position of Andong Protector by the court. The entire Liaodong and Liaoxi were under the jurisdiction of Li Guan.
With this change, even the families behind Duli Town had to change their original idea of confrontation and strengthen their relationship with Li Guan, hoping to continue to maintain the status quo of the Free Trade City.
A few days ago, my daughter Wang Wanjun returned to Duli Town. This was the first time my daughter had returned to the house since she married Li Guan. She was worried that her daughter would feel wronged and she was not doing well there. However, she didn't expect to see her daughter mature a lot and had been pregnant for several months. She didn't seem to regret marrying Li Guan. On the contrary, after her daughter returned to Duli Town, the first thing she did when she met him was to persuade him to join Li Guan.
Before his daughter Wanjun got married, Wang Pu valued her daughter very much. She often asked her daughter for some unstoppable things and got satisfactory answers every time. Wang Pu could see that her daughter did not marry Li Yan, so she looked at Li Yan.
"Duli Town is just an isolated city now. If Li Guanzhen wants to deal with Duli Town, he doesn't have to attack the city. He just needs to cut off the connection between water and land. Duli Town is a big city with hundreds of thousands of people. It takes less than a year or two to go into chaos. Now his husband holds the army of Zhendong Army in his hand, with Song Wei in Ziqing Town, and the support of the emperor and the ministers in the court. Even many families in Duli Town are actually doing business with their husbands."
Wang Wanjun advised him: "The current support is still considered icing on the cake. If my husband takes over other forces in southern Liaoning, then Duli Town will not be happy for my husband. Aye only sees Pei Shishu. Now he has become the judge of the Zhendong Army and also serves as the deputy envoy of the Zhendong Army. My husband is very much valued. If Aye can take the initiative to support him, he will definitely get more respect by sending a big city like Duli Town to my husband."
Wang Pu was also a little moved, but he was still worried: "Li Guan was born out of nowhere. Now the situation in Dengzhou and southern Liaoning is constantly changing. It can be predicted that this chaotic situation in southern Liaoning will end for more than a hundred years. With the strong presence of Zhendong Army, Duli Town will also lose its status. However, it is difficult to completely surrender to Li Guan. Although I am the city lord, Duli Town directly controls thirty-six large families and 72 representative families."
"How can you know the result if you don't do it? Aye looked at the uncle Pei Shi, then the Li family in Qingnicheng and the Guo family in Beishacheng. They are now in important positions in Li Guan's Zhendong Army. Even the Xiao family, Han family, and Cui family have important positions. With the Zhendong Army in Duli Town, it is impossible to restore it to the same way as before. If you join me earlier, you can get a better position." Wang Wanjun paused, "My daughter is now pregnant with the Li family, but the two sisters of the Pei family and the second wife are also pregnant. Now the daughter's status in the Li family is not high or low. If Aye can join me, it will not only be very beneficial to my Wang family, but also very good to her daughter."
Wang Wanjun's words finally touched Wang Pu. In this change, the interests of the Wang family, the interests of his daughter, and his interests were intertwined, forcing him to fully consider it.
After making up his mind, Wang Pu began to contact some families who tend to surrender to Li Guan. For many families in Duli Town, Duli Town is just a loose interest alliance. They have no idea of competing for Liaodong, and the purpose is just to make money. Duli Town is already losing money. If they continue to fight against Li Guan, they are likely to continue to lose money. Naturally, they are unwilling to see such a result.
They wanted to continue to maintain their previous state, but they knew that such a situation would be difficult. In the end, under the lobbying of Wang Pu, Feng Changgui, and the Pei family, nearly half of the families did not oppose joining Li Guan. But they hoped that this joining was just a gesture, and in essence, they still hope that Duli Town would continue to maintain the status quo.
Regarding this request, after seeing Zheng Jiezhi, the representative of Duli Town who came back with Wang Wanjun, Li Guan pondered for a long time and finally agreed. It was a good thing that Duli Town could take the initiative to surrender. Although it was not a real surrender, it was already a good progress. Li Guan did not want to push them to the opposite side because of rushing.
After discussing with Li Liang and Li Zhen and others, Li Guan combined the three cities of Duli Town, Qingnicheng and Beishacheng into the Liaonan Governor's Office. Li Guan served as the governor of the Liaonan Governor's Office, with Wang Pu as the deputy governor, and Qingnicheng Li Meng as the chief secretary. Wang Chong of Beishacheng was appointed as the Sima. In addition, he also gave Duli Town, Qingnicheng and Beishacheng original officials, who were awarded the positions of military officers, including the military officers, merit, warehouse, household, military, law, etc.
Although the three cities were integrated into one Governor's Office, there was no major change in Duli Town. The Governor's Office was located in Beisha City, and the original Duli Town soldiers and horses were Li Guan asked them to form a separate town with a soldier of 5,000 troops. Duli Town, Qingni City and Beisha City were all set as Shangxian County, and Wang Pu was appointed as the magistrate of Duli Town and the military envoy of Duli Town. Li Guan only transferred Pei You back to Duli Town and served as the deputy military envoy.
Dulizhen's reaction to this result was to agree.
This time, when Li Yan marched into southern Liaoning, Wang Pu and Pei You led 3,000 troops to participate in Duli Town. This was what made Li Yan the most happy after this change.
This time, Wang Pu not only brought nearly half of the troops in Duli Town, but also brought a lot of their magic weapon Feihuo. Other troops from southern Liaoning charged in front, but the troops in Duli Town fell behind and slowly advanced. When they arrived at the mountain village, the soldiers in Duli Town began to assemble more than a dozen guns. When they were assembled, the troops in Shicheng and other soldiers in front were fighting fiercely with Langya Village. However, there was no progress.
Although the troops of all units were relatively strong, they were difficult to attack the stone village built along the mountain.
Wang Pu and Pei You watched for a while, then asked the troops of Shicheng to temporarily retreat, and then ordered the plane to fire. A row of drums sounded, and more than a dozen cannons shot into the fire pot. Flying fires with orange-red tail flames roared onto the village wall, rumbling and bursting.
Flashes of fire were flying, and violent explosions sounded, and the soldiers of the Langya Village on the top of the city were as if they were trapped in the Jiuyou Hell. After one round of explosions, another round of flying fire attacks arrived.
After more than a dozen consecutive waves of flying fire attacks, the soldiers of Langya Village who were still standing on the village wall were no longer seen. The sound of drums and horns at the foot of the mountain sounded again, and the soldiers and horses of Shicheng and other units were shouting and rushing towards the village to compete for military merits.
Although Qin Zongshou had the courage of ten thousand men, one of them exploded beside him in the previous explosion. Fortunately, his personal soldiers blocked him for a while, and he was wearing double thick armor. Although he was not injured, the loud noise shocked him directly. When he came to his senses, the wall of the village had been broken and countless soldiers rushed in. He tried to get up and organize a counterattack, but before he could stand firm, he was stabbed to his neck by more than a dozen spears. The soldiers were very smart. He saw that the man had excellent armor and was obviously a leader.
Losing the protection of the village wall, Langya Village was soon defeated against more than ten times their soldiers and horses. When Li Guan went up the mountain to enter the stone village, the troops in southern Liaoning were already clearing out the last remaining enemies, and some even began to rob.
When Qin Zongshou was taken to Li Guan, he was tied up. At this time, he was much more awake. Seeing that Li Guan was surrounded by everyone, he also knew that this person might be Li Guan who led his troops to attack his counterfeit village. He immediately cursed: "What kind of ability do you use to use a secret trick? If you have the ability to come out to fight with your grandfather for 300 rounds!"
Seeing this man majestic and mighty, Li Guan's intention to cut him off with one knife could not help but change. He smiled slightly, and a young general behind him had already stepped forward, "Young Marshal, Liu Xun asked for a fight, I would like to compete with this guy."
Although Liu Xun was young, Li Guan had seen all his skills, and he also had the reputation of Liu Xun in history in memory. Therefore, although Liu Xun is only his deputy tenth general and commander of the guard, Li Guan has the most important plan to cultivate him. Now seeing him asking for battle, I know that this is also an opportunity to make him famous. Liu Xun was just a surrendered general brought by Wang Jingwu. Many people in the army were dissatisfied with his position as the tenth general, which was just right for him to show his strength.
I immediately smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll allow you to go to the battle. But remember to stop until it's time and don't hurt people."
A soldier there untied the ropes for Qin Zongshou and returned his 36-pound heavy iron spear. Qin Zongshou, who was holding the iron spear, saw that it was a boy with no hair and was about to challenge him, and he felt dissatisfied. When he heard Li Yan's words, he was even more angry and screamed.
"Is there no one in Zhendong Army? I'm sending a little kid to fight, so I'm not afraid that I will kill him with a spear. I'd better advise you to change people as soon as possible. If there is really no one, it's okay to go together with two or three."
Li Guan smiled and said to Qin Zongshou: "Don't talk loudly for now. It's said that you, Qin Zongshou, lost with a sling of iron spear, but I think this is just a boast of yourself. To deal with you, one of my guards is enough. If you can defeat him, then you are qualified to challenge other people."
Qin Zongshou said angrily: "Don't blame me for not reminding me in advance. There are countless people who died under my big gun. Today, I will add one more. Hey, that young boy, report your name. The nameless ghost that is not dead under my gun!"
Liu Xun stood there with a cold face, holding a four-meter-long horse spear in his hand. He just replied coldly to Qin Zongshou's hateful words: "That black man, please listen. I am the commander of the guard of Li Jungong and the deputy ten general of the Silver Gun Guard Battalion. My name is Liu Xun. Remember my name and you will know who you are defeated later. Don't say much nonsense, just do it!"
The silver spear shook, and the cold light lit up, and the spear danced like a dragon.
The Qin Zongshou's reputation as a brave man without stopping the enemy was naturally not bragging. At that moment, the iron spear swung, like a dragon going out to sea. He took Liu Xun directly.
The two generals fought in front of Li Guan. One used a spear and the other held a gun. The silver spear weighed eighteen kilograms, which was already considered a heavy weapon. The black iron spear guarded by Qin Zong was even more domineering, weighing thirty-six kilograms. A young silver spear and a giant iron spear. The two of them fought back and forth, opening their eyes and shouting wonderfully. Li Guan was also a little surprised. He had seen Liu Xun's ability. He could rank in the top ten in the Zhendong Army in terms of personal martial arts alone. But the iron spear guarded by Qin Zong danced and opened and closed. It was extremely powerful. It was obviously not a wild way, but a routine skill that had been mastered by masters.
Both of them attacked with all their might. From a distance, there were gun shadows and spear shadows everywhere, like a battle between two dragons, one black and one silver. In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed, and the two were still fighting fiercely, and the two were fighting more and more fiercely. Later, they all ignored the defense and attacked fiercely. This was no longer the end, but the end of the day.
When the fight reached a fierce point, the two of them yelled at the same time, and both stabbed at each other violently. Li Yan was shocked to see that he was completely betting on who was more bold. At this time, as long as one person withdraws the move to defend, he will be at a disadvantage, and may even lose with one move.
But when Li Guan saw these two people, they were clearly destined to be dead, and no one would take the initiative to withdraw the defense.
"Stop!" Li Yan roared, snatched the horse spear that the guards had for him, and leaped, and danced a afterimage of the long spear, directly stabbed into the middle of the two. He suddenly raised the fire and stormed the sky. He used all his strength to snatch the two of them. "The two tied, there was no need to fight again!"
Liu Xun and Qin Zongshou were separated by Li Guan's spear. At this time, they retreated, panting, but stared at each other like red-eyed bulls. However, Li Guan had already announced the result, and the two had to obey.
The two stared at each other for a long time, and Qin Zongshou suddenly laughed: "I underestimated you just now. Liu Xun, yes, you are the first one to be able to hold on to my big iron spear for so long and be undefeated. However, what I am even more convinced is that you are young, but you are full of courage and have a desperate aura when you fight. I guess you won't hide from the last shot just now!"
Liu Xun said coldly: "If you don't hide, how could I hide!"
"Hahaha!" After saying that, both of them suddenly burst into laughter. They felt very happy to meet such an opponent.
After laughing, Qin Zongshou turned his head and knelt down to Li Guan on one knee and said, "The guards under the county duke all have such skills. I am convinced that the strength of the army in the east is especially true. The spear of the county duke just now is really impeccable. The county duke's kung fu is still above me and brothers Liu. I am willing to surrender, so I ask the county duke to let go of my Langya Village."
Li Yan was carrying his hands on his back, and his hands were still numb. Qin Zongshou was a powerful general. He originally wanted to destroy the Langya Village and kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, but now he couldn't help but cherish his talents. He nodded and personally stepped forward to help him up: "Sure enough, he deserves to be the legendary bravery of ten thousand men, and he can be called a tiger general. Well, since you are willing to submit, then this military envoy now reorganizes the troops of your Langya Village into a battalion, the camp is called Langya. From now on, you will be the ten generals of the Langya Camp."
In the battle just now, both sides suffered little casualties. Under the bombing of the flying fire in Duli Town, most of the soldiers of Langya Village retreated from the walls, and were rushed up by various troops to break the city directly. Langya Village originally had more than a thousand soldiers and horses, but only more than two hundred people died in the battle. After adding some of the young and strong people in the village, they gathered a thousand people.
When Qin Zongshou saw that he had surrendered, Li Guan gave him ten generals to the battalion and asked him to command his subordinates to form a battalion alone, which was very satisfied.
At this moment, the soldiers and people of Langya Village, which were originally captured, were also released. Qin Zongshou ordered the killing of pigs and sheep, and rewarded the soldiers and horses of Zhendong Army and various units in southern Liaoning. After this battle, the Liaoning teams saw that even the fierce men like Qin Zongshou were directly defeated in one battle, and they couldn't help but feel a little more awe of Li Guan. The guard commander of Li Guan, a commander of Zhendong Army, could even match the Langya Qin Zongshou, who had long been famous in southern Liaoning. You can imagine the power of Zhendong Army.
