Chapter three hundred and fifty-fifth Shihe Dangerous Battle

The great victory in Huazhou was annihilated 80,000 enemies. This great victory made Shi Fangzhen inexplicably excited. He had never had such a victory in his fifteen years of ascending the throne. This victory satisfied Shi Fangzhen's desire for civil and military achievements.

In a very happy mood, he did not give him a reward. Shi Fang's true teachings ordered the reward of the three armies. Yang Xiangliang was promoted from Yiyongbo to Yiyonghou, and all those who had made contributions were promoted accordingly. Yang Xiangliang's eldest son Yang Huaiwu was directly promoted from the Ranger General of the Fifth-rank to General Mingwei from the fourth-rank, and was promoted three consecutively; the second son Yang Huaizhong was promoted from Deputy Zhaowu from the sixth-rank to General of the Ranger General of the Fifth-rank, and the emperor's generous reward for the Yang family was unmatched, and even the Grand Marshal Zhu family was taken away.

In early April, Xuan Wei envoy came to Huiye Mansion to reward the three armies with a long convoy. He did not say anything about cattle, mutton, wine and meat. In addition to the pension silver, the emperor allocated another 2 million taels of silver to reward. These silver made Yu Zhijie, the Minister of Revenue, grief, a few strands of hair white. The million taels of silver that had finally been added to the treasury before the New Year was shaken clean. If there was any change and the treasury was empty, what would be used to respond.

The emperor is in a state of excitement. Who dares to pour cold water? It is still considered that the emperor is sympathetic to the difficulties of the Ministry of Revenue. He actively proposed to cut off one-third of the cost in the palace this year, and spending hundreds of thousands of points of silver as a means of reducing the position.

Two million taels seem to be quite large, but this time, the Anxi Protectorate sent 160,000 troops, and the 2 million taels of silver was only more than one tael of silver on each soldier. Moreover, the officers and soldiers were not the same. The greater the officials, the more the credit, the greater the reward. These are things on the surface, and there is also a distinction between closeness and distantness in secret. When Yang Xiangliang replaced Zhu Xunpu as the Anxi Protectorate, he brought his own 10,000 personal soldiers. These people were born by their own mothers. If they made great contributions, they would naturally have more rewards for those who received great rewards.

Zhu Yupu resigned, and some of the generals and officials of the Anxi Protectorate immediately expressed their support and service to Yang Xiangliang. This war naturally also gained benefits, with less than the best and less than the best, and some rewards for food and drink. The second is Zhu Yupu's former confidants. They can't leave, and they have to surrender to the new governor, but they can't stand it. They have to fight hard in this battle, and they have to be thankless.

Zhou Zongxuan's boss was Mei Hongmin, the general of the fourth rank of Zhuangwu. Mei Hongmin was a general of the Zhu family. When Zhu Xunpu was appointed as the governor, he was the head of the Forward Battalion. After Yang Xiangliang took over, he adjusted his military affairs. Mei Hongmin was transferred to the Left Army. This time, he launched a counterattack against the Western Regions coalition. Although the left army had not had many wars, he fought several battles with the main light cavalry of Rong Mi Kingdom. Both sides suffered casualties and suffered few military achievements, so naturally there were few rewards.

This time, the left army of Mei Hongmin was awarded 14,000, and only 30,000 taels of silver were rewarded, which was only 5,600 taels of silver. Seeing that the brothers from other camps had at least two silvers, the soldiers were naturally dissatisfied. The morale of the army was unstable and disloyal, so such soldiers were not easy to lead. Mei Hongmin discussed with his generals and decided to seize the tail of the war and take the initiative to ask for the remnants of the Western Regions.

Yang Xiangliang knew Mei Hongmin's dissatisfaction, so he did not make things difficult for him in this matter, but just told him not to kill good people, etc. Old generation talks, no one would really take it seriously. Mei Hongmin's subordinates were divided into five groups and pulled a net in Huazhou. He could catch some scattered soldiers from the Western Regions. More of the people who settled in Huazhou in the Western Regions were affected by the disaster. Like Shihe Town, the army asked for benefits everywhere. If they were not given, the whole town would be killed.

The person who reported the news ran to the inn in anger, and Jiang Anyi and others were waiting for news in the lobby. When the man came in and said the words of Xiangzheng, Jiang Anyi stood up and said, "It's not too late, everyone gets on the horse and go with me to see."

More than thirty horses were quite powerful, which attracted foreigners who were watching to follow him. At the gate of the town, Jiang Anyi gathered forty or fifty horses and nearly a hundred people. These people were all holding swords and bows, and they all looked like brave men.

Zhou Zongxuan sat on the horse and wondered what the old man was talking about. At this moment, it was less than three o'clock in the morning, and the night was dark. A group of people came from the torch light, all riding horses, as if there were still women.

The old man came forward to greet him, but Qin Ziyan was still the one who came forward. The two of them muttered. Jiang Anyi looked at Zhou Zongxuan and saw that he was a military general. There were many officers and soldiers behind him, and there were no torches to be lit, so it was hard to see how many people were.

There were many foreigners behind Jiang Anyi. I don’t know who took advantage of the night to shoot a cold arrow at Zhou Zongxuan. Zhou Zongxuan was quick-eyed and raised his gun to drive the cold arrow away. Zhou Zongxuan was still a little hesitant, for fear of offending the big man, but this arrow gave him a reason to suppress the bandits.

He held up the iron spear in his hand, and Zhou Zongxuan passed on the order: "Shihe Town hosts bandits, assassinate me, suppress bandits for me, and kill them."

The troops agreed in unison, with neat footsteps and endless pressure, heading towards Shihe Town. The old man looked as if he was ashes. He didn't expect that this would be the result. If he had known it, outsiders shouldn't have entered the town.

Jiang An was full of loyalty. A man about to put away his longbow, but Jiang Anyi winked at Xinfei. The couple was united. Xinfei understood, and he slapped his feet on his toes, jumped up from the horse's back, twisted his waist in the air, and jumped towards the man.

The man panicked and tugged at Xinfei's legs with the long bow in his hand. Xinfei's legs were closed, and he made a bowstring and gently pointed it on the man's shoulder. The man felt a great force coming from his shoulder, and then he couldn't sit steadily on the saddle and fell sideways.

On the other hand, Jiang Anyi urged the charcoal and galloped towards Zhou Zongxuan. Nothing was useful at this moment. Only by controlling the general could it be possible to stop the massacre. Jiang Anyi was about five meters away from Zhou Zongxuan, and there was a trench four meters long in the middle. It was impossible for ordinary war horses to leap through, but Jiang Anyi had confidence in charcoal.

The gentle true energy was input into Jiang Anyi's legs. Although the charcoal could not be said, he felt his whole body full of strength. He ran a few steps to help, kicked out all four hooves and rose into the air, and fell steadily to the other end of the trench under the astonished gazes of everyone.

Zhou Zongxuan had a sneer at first, preparing to see Jiang Anyi and his men and horses fall into the trench. When the horse soared into the air, Zhou Zongxuan felt something was wrong. The horse jumped high and easily. Although it was dark, he could feel the smoothness of the horse's body, like flowing water.

When the horse fell to the ground, Jiang Anyi rushed towards him. Zhou Zongxuan was not in a hurry, but fortunately he praised "Good horses, good kung fu". He had experienced many battles in the army for nearly twenty years, and knew that the personal bravery on the battlefield was not very effective, so he didn't breathe, and the soldiers behind him would surround this person. When the spears surrounded him, the man's death was the time.

This time, Jiang Anyi brought his sword, gun and bow, but he did not carry it with him, but placed it on the carriage. At this moment, Jiang Anyi was bare-handed. Zhou Zongxuan calmly raised the gun in his hand and headed towards Jiang Anyi's chest. The personal soldiers beside him also pulled out machetes and surrounded Jiang Anyi. Two feet behind him, countless soldiers were swarming with guns and knives. Even if Jiang Anyi was allowed to break in front of him, they could not escape the dense crowds of people.

Jiang Anyi used the ground on his left leg, and the charcoal understood the owner's mind. He suddenly changed the direction of his movement, turned to the left sideways, and hit the horse horizontally. Zhou Zongxuan responded to the changes in his unchanging manner, and the spear in his hand still pierced Jiang Anyi's chest. No matter what tricks Jiang Anyi played, he could not escape his palm.

The iron spear came with the cold wind. Jiang Anyi twisted his body and walked in front of him. Jiang Anyi's left hand flashed like lightning, grabbed the gun barrel with one hand. Zhou Zongxuan sneered, pressed the handle and tried hard to lift Jiang Anyi from the back of the horse. The personal guards on the side had arrived, and three bright machetes swept towards Jiang Anyi's chest and abdomen.

With the force of the upper hand, Jiang Anyi floated up and three steel knives were running away at the soles of his feet. Jiang Anyi still grabbed the gun with his left hand, and his body was like a swimming fish floating towards Zhou Zongxuan along the gun, and his right palm slashed towards Zhou Zongxuan's chest.

There are also masters in the army, and there are such master guards around the generals. Hearing the sound of true energy slashing through the air, Zhou Zongxuan knew the masters he met. Naturally, the army had taught the way to deal with it. Zhou Zongxuan swung his spear outward, trying to turn Jiang Anyi outward, and took advantage of the momentum to move his body to avoid the sharp wind.

The gun was one meter long, and Jiang Anyi's left hand had already slid to half of the gun body, which was only four feet away from Zhou Zongxuan. Zhou Zongxuan threw the gun out with force, and took Jiang Anyi's body to float up, and the palm wind was running through the air. Jiang Anyi was in the air, with his left hand as the support point, and he used himself as the wheel, and his toes drew an arc, which was firmly placed on Zhou Zongxuan's shoulder.

Zhou Zongxuan was wearing bright light armor, with a yaozi beast head on his shoulder, which was made of essence iron. Jiang Anyi's toe was on the beast's head, and the essence iron beast head immediately split into pieces. Zhou Zongxuan felt a heat infiltrating his shoulder, making his muscles and bones crisp and his heart hot. He remembered the internal strength that the military masters had promoted. Could it be that he had suffered internal injuries?

The idea of ​​not being an opponent arose in his mind. Zhou Zongxuan reacted quickly and tried his best to roll to the right. As long as he used the horse to fight for the time to fall to the ground, the soldiers behind him arrived and rushed up, and the opponent could not help him. When the opponent was surrounded, it was time for him to take revenge.

I thought it was pretty good. Before my body was off the horse's back, a big hand grabbed the tripping armor tape on my waist, and a gentle voice rang in my ears: "General, don't hurry to leave, I have something to say."

Zhou Zongxuan felt that he was being raised high like a cloud and mist, and the man shouted loudly: "My official, Jiang Anyi, the governor of Huazhou, passed here to Huiye Mansion to take office. You haven't put down your weapons yet."

Jiang Anyi turned around and signaled behind him. Shi Tou took out the seal from his bag behind him, and stood on the horse's back with a torch to show it to everyone. The main general fell into the hands of the man, and the other party was still the governor. The soldiers were looking at each other and didn't know what to do.

Zhou Zongxuan felt cold in his heart. Killing Liang and defeating Gong was caught by the governor, and he was afraid he would be unable to survive. At this point, he had to fight to the death and everyone would die together.

"Brothers, don't listen to the nonsense of the demon. He is the remnant of Yuan Tian. Don't worry about me, kill him, and kill everyone." Zhou Zongxuan's body was like an ant, and he had no power to resist. He could only shout at the top of his lungs. Several of his lieutenants were a little moved, and they signaled each other with their eyes and were about to move forward.

Seeing that something was wrong, Qin Ziyan jumped on his horse, held up the Longwei ID card, and shouted loudly: "I am Qin Ziyan, the governor of Longweizhou in Huazhou, and was ordered to escort the governor of Jiang to take office. You have not put down your weapons yet. Can't you rebel? Think about your family, but you have not put down your weapons yet."
