Chapter 232 Ming Dynasty Tiger Frightened Fox and Ape
"Why...really?"
"It's true. The villain dares not deceive him, but Luo Da is defeated and the Tang people's army has arrived."
In the mansion of the lord of Beisha City, Quan Gaihong sat back on the brocade stool without breathing for a long time.
"What is the situation? Tell me, tell me quickly, how could Gao Yincheng be defeated with three thousand soldiers?" A confidant next to him could not believe the news he had just heard, and asked the general who was kneeling in front of him.
"The Tang people are so cunning. Our inside news is wrong. The Tang people's soldiers are no less than 3,000, and maybe 5,000." The general kowtowed and cried: "Luoda was attacked by the Tang army. First, the 500 vanguards of Gao Feng were wiped out, and then Luoda was killed in battle. Then more than a thousand Tang people and two thousand defenders of Weizi Village attacked us together. There were only one thousand of us, and most of them were injured and we were really unable to compete..."
In order to ruling responsibility, the Tang people's troops were exaggerated several times. In fact, Nan Jiyun took Gao Yincheng's first record and drove the defeated soldiers to Weizi Village. They immediately abandoned the camp and fled. They had no idea how much troops Nan Jiyun was. However, during the escape, they were chased by Nan Jiyun three times and fought for three formations. Only three of them escaped successfully back to Beisha City. The rest were either killed and captured or hid in the mountains and wilderness, and did not dare to appear.
"Five thousand...5 thousand..."
After hearing this number, everyone's faces changed.
What does the five thousand Tang troops mean? They all understand: after more than 40 years of withdrawal from here, the Tang Dynasty finally returned to Liaodong.
"It's okay, it's okay, like the cold land is frozen and the seaways are frozen, the Tang Dynasty is only these five thousand people at most..." One person murmured to himself: "Even if they want a large army to dispatch, they have to wait for the beginning of spring. Moreover, if the Tang Dynasty wants to fight eastward, it must be very good to make great efforts to prepare in Dengzhou, but we have not heard of Dengzhou's shipbuilding and food stockpiling..."
Because they had trade relations with the Tang Dynasty, they had some understanding of the situation in Dengzhou, Shandong. However, this did not relieve everyone. Even if the Tang Dynasty had to prepare for two or three years before it could truly expedition, it would always be expedition...
"The eastern expedition is absolutely impossible. If it is an eastern expedition, it would be the first of the Anton Protector, but now the Anton Protector is fighting with the Khitans in a tight battle."
“That’s right, it’s right”
After a while of fear, everyone began to enlighten themselves, but everyone knew in their hearts that the difference between a big country and a small country is that a big country has almost infinite background. Who knows what card will the Tang Dynasty, the most important country in the world, take out at this time?
And even if there are no other cards, the Beisha City will be in danger with these five thousand soldiers alone.
"It's okay, don't be surprised. The Tang Dynasty has made enemies everywhere and it is impossible to go east with all its might. But these five thousand people can't do anything to our Beisha City. Don't forget how much suffering it suffered under Beisha City decades ago when the Tang Dynasty invaded," Quan Gaihong said again.
Everyone nodded, but what they thought was another matter. At that time, the Tang Dynasty did suffer a lot under the Beisha City, but at that time the Tang Dynasty was Goguryeo, with a large force with a population of three million and hundreds of thousands. Now the Beisha City is controlled by Quangaihong, and the real population may not be 40,000. As for military power...
The biggest headache for Quan Gaihong now is military strength.
He could naturally immediately recruit all the young and strong people around Beisha City to join the army to prepare for a big battle, but it is really doubtful how effective the temporary soldiers can have. What's more, he had already mobilized once before to conquer the capital. Now he mobilized again, even the old and the weak will have to go into battle. After all, although his rule is vast, the population that really lives in Beisha City is only more than 10,000.
"This failure..." Quan Gai Hong was about to boost his morale again, but suddenly he heard a noise outside, and his heart was trembling, and then he heard footsteps coming.
"What's the matter?"
"Governor, Takamatsu from Qingnipu has left the headquarters"
This news made Quan Gaihong's brow suddenly stand up: "You dare to do that"
This southern expedition, Gao Song of Qingnipu can be said to be one of the most active people. However, when the army was launched, considering that he was close to Duli, Quan Gaihong was unwilling to be a wedding dress for him and let his troops be the rear, and now he was stationed in Beisha City. At this time, he withdrew the troops without reporting, which only means one thing. He had learned about the failure of the front line.
And as he takes the lead, the remaining troops will leave immediately. The troops that are still gathered in Beisha City will scatter in a blink of an eye.
"Come here, I'll send my order to get Gao Song's first record," he shouted sternly.
"Governor, no, no, no." After hearing his order, the bottom was in chaos. Someone stood up and said, "It is not advisable to create more enemies at this time. Don't say that you can't kill Gao Song. Even if you kill, Gao Song will have his own descendants. The Governor will push Gao Song to the Tang people."
"Gao Song's intention to rebel is revealed. Even if he doesn't kill him, he will surrender to the Tang people." Quan Gaihong sneered: "It's better to kill him and join his subordinates."
Speaking of this, he waved his hand and said sternly: "I have decided, the blocker is the same as Gao Song for the same sin as Quanli."
"exist"
"You and... with Luo Jiuhe, go to get the first score of Gao Song"
"yes"
Quan Li is his confidant. The Han army in Luo Jiuhe's hands is the largest unit he can use at present. After the two of them left, Quan Li glanced at Luo Jiuhe and said in his heart: "The governor made me and Luo Jiuhe be together. I am afraid that I will also be suspicious of Luo Jiuhe. After all, there are Han people there, and Luo Jiuhe is a Han general, and the Han army in his hands... Since that's the case, I have to keep a close eye on this guy. Since Gao Yincheng died, I am the first general under the governor. Who is this Han guy, can he be with me?"
Luo Jiuhe looked as usual. They ordered their troops and chased towards Qingnipu for about two miles, but they did not see Gao Songbu. Instead, they were kneeling on the side of the road.
"Who are you waiting for?" Quan Li stepped forward and asked.
"The villain is the people of this city. I just passed by Gao Lou Xiao of Qingnipu and asked the villain to welcome the general here." The man presented a piece of paper: "He left a letter, and now he is here to go to the general."
The man submitted a letter, and a soldier took it and handed it to Luo Jiuhe. Quan Li coughed: "Take it and see it with me."
Luo Jiuhe silently handed the letter to him, Quan Li opened it and looked at it, and then furious: "Dog thief, how dare you do this?"
He didn't hand over the letter to Luo Jiuhe, and put it straight into his arms: "Chasing"
"Zhi Mou Ding, your belief... is really useful?" Gao Song shrank his neck so that the knife-like Beifeng would not freeze his ears. He asked with a hesitation.
"It is of course useful. Now that Gao Yin has succeeded and failed, no matter whether he is alive or dead, Quan Gaihong can only use the Han army in Luo Jiuhe. Therefore, if someone comes to chase him, it must be Luo Jiuhe. My faith is a plan of separation. As long as Luo Jiuhe sees it, he will definitely not pursue it with all his strength." Qiong Mouding said confidently.
After thinking for a while, Nan Jiyun could not think of a solution. Moreover, from the villages outside the city, Beisha City was prepared to implement a solid wall and clear the field. Now he only had less than 300 cavalry in his hands, and even if he wanted to destroy the opponent's intention of clearing the field, it was difficult. Therefore, the only choice was to give up the plan of the raid and return to the army.
This made Nan Jiyun, who had won several consecutive victories, somewhat unsatisfied.
His three hundred cavalry were the vanguards, and Ye Chang personally led a large army behind him. After winning the Battle of Phoenix Mountain, Ye Chang recruited militias again. This time the participants were even more enthusiastic. It can even be said that most of the young and strong Han people of the right age have become regiment training.
The Lushun regiment training was the new name that Ye Chang gave to this army. After this recruitment, the regiment training in Ye Chang had reached 4,000. Except for 500 people left to guard Duli and Lushun, all the rest went on the expedition. The weapons left by Gao Yincheng's troops armed them so that they would not even have weapons.
In addition, Ye Chang also ordered the villages north of Weizi Village to supply food and grass, and the people and the villagers did not obey Lushun, but were remotely controlled by Qingnipu or Beisha City, but now it has changed.
At Sanchakou, more than 20 miles away from Beisha City, Nan Jiyun met Ye Chang's main force. At this time, Ye Chang had already set up a camp, and outside the camp, there were some people in various costumes trembling in the wind.
"What's going on with those people?" Nan Jiyun asked as he led his horse into the camp.
"The nearby villages sent no food and grass, so the army ordered them to wait outside." The guard laughed and said, "These fence-bearing grass were attentive when they were in charge of Gao Yincheng. Now that we are here, there is no food and grass - we should let them drink more of the northwest wind."
Nan Jiyun also laughed.
However, after entering Ye Chang's tent, he saw an acquaintance sitting on the stool. When he saw him in, the acquaintance hurriedly stood up and saluted: "General Nan"
"Qing Mou Ding?" Nan Jiyun was a little surprised: "You are not in Beisha City, how could you be here?"
"How did you get in the city of Beisha?" Zhi Mou Ding smiled and said: "I was loyal to the court with a certain Mingfu, and how did I get in with the traitors in Beisha. Previously, because the traitors were powerful, I just wanted to be with them. In fact, my lord is...yes..."
After thinking for a while, a word suddenly came out, "My heart is in Cao's camp and in Han" came. Nan Jiyun was stunned, and Ye Chang also laughed out loud.
"This is a saying in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is about Guan Yunchang..." Zheng Mou Ding explained
Nan Jiyun immediately smiled: "I want you to know that this book was written by my army. The original sentence should be in Cao's camp and the heart is in Han. I never thought that this book was circulating in the remote place of Liaodong."
Qi Mouding was almost stunned. He turned to Ye Chang, then bowed to the ground, and said sincerely: "The remote and savage man is now convinced. I don't expect Ye Zongjun to be such a talented person. It's no wonder that Gao Yincheng is like capturing a three-year-old child."
