Chapter 32 Don't provoke me, boy
King Kang came and went in a hurry.
After the banquet, I stayed in Cizhou for one more day, but no one except Zong Ze met.
Before leaving, he asked Zong Ze to send someone to Xiangzhou to find him if he had any questions, and not to write a letter to the official family that he had gone to Xiangzhou.
Seeing Zhao Gou walking far away, Zong Ze sighed.
He whispered to Li Jing.
"The court officialdom is complicated, and it is easy to break even if it is hard. Nephews still have to learn to restrain their edges and corners. I want to recommend your three brothers to King Kang..."
Zong Ze said, looking at Li Jing's young face, remembering that when he was young, he couldn't even restrain himself in such occasions as palace examinations.
Just shake your head.
If a young man loses impulse and does not fear the powerful, he will be smooth in everything and learn to flatter, will he still be a young man?
Li Erlang has extraordinary knowledge and strategy, and is worried about the country and the people. He must be despised by King Kang, who only cares about poetry and prose and has no fighting spirit.
Is this a pair of disgusting each other?
"By the way, I heard from Huang Can, you want to send someone to Beijing?"
"Sir Zong, they are going to send someone to the capital to pick up my family. I want to ask you what you need to do!"
Zong Ze smiled. His family was in his hometown in Jiangnan and he was alone.
No family is in the capital.
Then he suddenly remembered that Li Jing was not optimistic about the situation in Bianjing.
He asked Li Jing in a low voice.
"Bianjing, has it really reached this point?"
"Sir, we'll just discuss this kind of thing in private. If it spreads out, the peace talks in the capital feel slapped in the face, saying that we local officials are lying to discuss the government affairs and have another imperial edict to remove us from our posts. Then we will not be able to do anything. We will watch the people being ravaged by the golden dog and their country is broken!"
After hearing Li Jing's words, Zong Ze and Huang Can couldn't help but remember what King Kang did in Cizhou.
I feel even more disappointed.
“What can we do now?”
"Nothing can be done. The official dismissed Lord Li Gang, and the old general Zhong was pissed to death by the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord have some abilities, but he lacks qualifications and cannot dispatch the capital's imperial guards and other defensive forces, and he cannot withstand the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Resistant!"
"Liu Wei was the county magistrate of Fengcheng. He happened to encounter a severe drought and a famine year. He was very good at Fengcheng! This official is from Jiangxi and has dealt with him several times. Otherwise, we would recommend him to release him?"
Things that the emperor has to decide are not reliable.
Li Jing thought about it and said to Huang Can.
"Send Liu Wei a favor and ask him to write to the official family. The situation is dangerous now, and the Jin people are coming in a fierce manner. In order to avoid the blood of Huizong being caught by Jindo, the royal family will be evacuated as soon as possible. It is best to set up a escort capital in the south and the official family will go south in person."
"Yes, yes, yes, that should be!"
The last time the Jin people went south, Huizong was so scared that he ran to Yangzhou.
Fortunately, there is nothing wrong with Bianjing, and it is necessary to be prepared for any trouble.
Huang Can nodded and quickly began to write a letter to Liu Wei on the carriage.
Zong Ze looked at Li Jing and had a strange thought in his mind.
King Kang looked down on this boy, and this boy looked down on King Kang either.
This kid is really not optimistic about the ability to defend Bianjing, and may not look down on King Kang. After getting tired of each other, Li Jing suggested evacuating the royal family to avoid being beaten by Jindo. Is it possible to snipe Zhao Gou to take office in the future?
"Mr. Zong, I want to lead the two battalions of troops westward, and in the direction of Enzhou and Daming Prefecture, the Qing Dynasty's scouts!"
Zhong Yanhong was depressed and pulled Li Jing's sleeve.
"Didn't you agree to go north?"
"If the army in Jingxing still has survivors, they must have gone to Shanxi. Only Taihang Mountain can stop the Jin cavalry. Those who go south will definitely be dead end. Let's go west first and then north?"
"Remember what you said, after moving westward, heading north!"
Although Zhong Yanhong felt that what Li Jing said made sense, he still did not give up.
Zong Ze frowned and remembered the scout report he received this morning. Most of the Jin army defeated by Cizhou only stayed in Xingzhou for two days and retreated northward.
This is confusing.
It is obvious that Wanyan Zonghan from Shanxi has already crossed the Yellow River.
Wanyan Zongwang on the East Road could not be in a hurry.
Why is he?
"You don't want to leave Enzhou anymore. I'm placing the fifth battalion for you. Li Jing leads the army, Zhong Yanhong is the vanguard, and go north to recover Xingzhou first!"
"Okay, let's go to see Enzhou after taking Xingzhou!"
There was a war. Li Jing, who had read the scout report in the morning, agreed immediately, and Zhong Yanhong next to him was also happy.
Zong Ze did not receive a report on the fall of Enzhou.
But Li Jing's judgment is very reasonable.
Wanyan Zongwang could not stop moving south because of the setback of Cizhou.
He is likely to have attacked Enzhou.
"My nephew remembers that before leaving, he discussed the production of the ordnance with Lord Huang. If Lord Huang didn't agree to you to go north, I will not let you go!"
This time it was Huang Canle, who was writing for Liu Wei in the carriage.
The little old man squeezed his eyes at Li Jing, and his meaning was very clear.
If you don’t tell me the tips of stir-frying steel and casting, I won’t let you go north to fight.
"Mr. Huang, my master taught me a lot. After this battle, we arrived in Shandong and you will learn slowly. There are still some rust-free steel smelting recipes on my hands. I am afraid that you will not know how to teach you!"
How could there be no rust steel? Is it still steel?
Huang Can didn't believe it even if he said it.
"You kid, don't irritate me. If you don't say anything else, you just boil salt and smelify iron, and there is nothing I can't learn yet!"
Zhong Yanhong was anxious.
I wish I could pull Li Jing and ask him to say less.
If Zong Ze and Huang Can love talents and don’t let him go to the battlefield, they will cry to death.
Fortunately, his worries did not happen.
After returning to the Cizhou Prefecture Office, Zong Ze not only asked him to prepare to send troops to the capital, but also called the Cizhou Tongzong and several battalion commanders.
"Nephew Zong, Commander Duan, Commander Zhang, you guys left Cizhou and went north. I have only one order. All actions are subject to Li Jing's command. Nephew Li Jing's use of weapons and terrain in wars, with extremely small casualties. The process of three battles and three victories shows that he is good at fighting tricks. I grant Li Jing the authority to disobey and neglect his duties. Li Jing has the right to take action first and then report!"
Zong Ze was not only the governor of Cizhou, but also the chief executive of the Hebei rebel army.
This time, they were all temporarily organized by the Rebels in Cizhou, and the Xiang army in Cizhou stayed to defend the city.
Zong Ze must report to the court for the handling of the generals of the Xiang army, but even if the general of the rebel army was killed unjustly, the court would not blame him.
"Here!"
"Does Nephew Lee Jingxian have anything to say?"
What should be said is that when I entered Cizhou just now, I had already discussed it with Zhong Yanhong, Chen Renjun, and Wu.
The rebel army in Cizhou was temporarily organized by Zong Ze before the arrival of the Jin army. The battle to defend the city is different from field battles. Zong Ze's training is also average, and Li Jing has no idea of combat power. It is best to use it as a baggage soldier to carry food, grass and weapons.
To fight a tough battle, you have to go with Zhong Yanhong's soldiers.
Looking at Li Jing shook his head, Zong Ze waved his hand.
"The three armies have a heavy responsibility, the golden dog is cruel and cunning, and the nephew is careful in everything, and never be eager to win. He has been defeated by Wanyan Zongwang's plot, and I am waiting for good news in Cizhou!"
"Here!"
The fifth battalion soldiers and the Cizhou Rebel Army, the third battalion cavalry of the Zhongjia, and his own two battalions, had more than 5,000 people.
Li Jing prepared a lot of gunpowder and arrows.
There was still a lot of food, and the third battalion of troops were allocated from the rebel army as baggage troops.
He ordered Chen Renjun, Wu Tan and Liu Chong, the fourth battalion under Zhong Yanhong, to draw 100 cavalry as scouts and advance first.
Pioneer Zhong Yanhong paved the way for the army.
