Chapter 158 - 1
"Liao thief, where are the Liao thieves?"
Jiang Zichun asked in panic. In fact, the army had already reached the forefront, and could see clearly with her eyesight alone, but she snatched the Qianli Mirror from the regiment and looked out.
"Oh, there are so many people." Jiang Tuanlian screamed in surprise. He swung the Qianli Mile Mile, feeling that he could not see at first sight.
Suddenly, a scarlet flag came into view, and a big "Song" character, and the left and right banners wrote "Fengtian to challenge the rebellion" and "Protect Emperor Zhao". Jiang Zichun said "Huh?", then looked at the banner carefully, and laughed in surprise: "The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple. This is not a thief. It is clearly the troops of Cao Taishi, the Grand Master of Xiangyang camp." He put down the thousand-mile mirror and did not dare to look at his father. He only expressed his power to the flag official who was shocked from the gentle village: "Lie about military information, let's send the military stick for the time being. Why don't you open the city gate quickly? Master Cao blames you, you can't even save your head!"
The flag plaque official dared not delay and hurriedly wanted to open the city gate.
"Rareless!" Xuezheng Jiang Fangjian shouted in a deep voice. He glared at his incompetent son angrily, "No city must be opened!"
The gentry of the Jiang family has taken advantage of the general trend of electing a provincial official to study in Yonglong County. Jiang Zichun was not allowed to do anything in the military, and could not handle the redundant tasks of the county government, so Jiang Fangjian donated a large sum of money and used the means to make him a team training envoy. However, this bastard almost missed a big deal. If Jiang Fangjian had not had such a son, he would almost have wanted to destroy him.
The flag official looked at the father and son timidly, and Jiang Zichun had a little courage and retorted: "My father, this is the banner of Grand Master Cao!"
"So what?" Jiang Fangjian sneered, "The Ministry of War repeatedly urged Xiangyang Daying to fight north, but Grand Tutor Cao led his troops south. What did he want to do?"
"Treason?" Even though he was as dull as Jiang Zichun, he woke up. The war in the north was in a tight position. The Cao family not only refused to obey the order of the Northern Expedition, but instead led troops south. Isn't this a rebellion?
"What should I do?" Jiang Zichun stammered, "Master Cao" is the damn, the young master was drunk and listening to the music, why was he involved in the rebellion?
Jiang Fangjian frowned and looked into the distance. A huge fleet of warships came across the river, and countless flags were flying, as if they could crush the small Yonglong County into powder with just one drum.
"The soldiers come and the generals come and the water comes and the soil comes and cover it." Jiang Fangjian's eyes showed a sharp look. He took a long breath, "According to the Khitans, all the troops will go to the city!" Yonglong County is the place of the Jiang family. The strong dragon will not suppress the local snake. Even if it is Taishi Cao, you will have to carry it for me. Now that the city has been opened, not only will it be extorted for food, grass and military pay, but it is also confirmed that the crime of treason was committed. In order to resist the Khitan, the Jiang family and the gentry in the city did not dare to delay the repair of the city. They also bought firearms and cannons, and recruited training troops. Although Yonglong was young, it would be difficult for Taishi Cao to knock on this walnut.
"Sir, Father." Jiang Zichun was still a little scared.
"It's settled!" Jiang Fangjian interrupted him and turned around and said, "Call the county school students."
There are 100 students in the county school in Yonglong County, of which 43 are those with different academic studies in the major exams. Under the Song Dynasty's enrollment system, these talented scholars and talented people were able to live in, and their future was unlimited. The other fifty-five people donated their students, representing almost all the powerful forces in the county. The gentry with a chaotic war and a little valuable went to the county town to take refuge. Therefore, except for a few students in the county school went to Ezhou to serve the court, all
The troops are all there. Usually, no matter how powerful the Jiang family is in Yonglong County, they are just a win over these people, and they are far from being a master. However, Jiang Xuezheng, the patriarch of the first family in Yonglong County, always has to give him the face. The county is not big, and not long, these white-clothed Confucian scholars were summoned to the top of the city. Many people were confused and looked at Master Xuezheng in surprise. Jiang Fangjian did not go around the corner and briefly told the situation of Cao Di's army going south.
"Everyone, I usually used to pay homage to Yan Zhenqing, and Lord Zhang Xun boasted that the traitors are in chaos. As the saying goes, the time is poor and the traitors are in trouble. The traitors are now in trouble. Now it is the time when I am famous. The county has five hundred troops, led by the dog son to guard the city. I have discussed with Liu County, opened the arsenal and took out the weapons. In the county, two troops were selected and then formed five groups to train the city to defend. According to the earlier agreement to go to the national crisis, all these troops were handed over to you." Jiang Fangjian took a long breath and said in a deep voice, "I am a county in Yonglong County, and I am famous in history or a decade of bad reputation. It depends on you!" As a local snake in Yonglong, Jiang Fangjian was familiar with the background and temperament of every student, and was not worried about the spies from the Cao family.
When the students at the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the Liao Dynasty heard this, they had a promise to fight against the Liao robbers earlier. However, they had to fight fiercely in Xiangyang so that the rank of the rank of the Liao robbers to move south. Everyone waited for success or failure, and then decided to do it. If they were not allowed, they would move south early, but they didn't expect that they would be trapped in the county town silently. At this moment, no matter what their original view of the government affairs, the students at the rank of the rank of Cao Di at this moment. Under the ban, they had to act as they had agreed. The temporary recruitment of the regiment lacked officers, so the students temporarily took their servants to control the team to resist foreign enemies.
"Or can I do a great job like Lord Zhao?" Someone thought with a fever.
"I don't know who will kill me. At this moment, I can only save the county town first. Otherwise, the rioters will come in and collapse the nest, and there will be no end to the eggs." Most of the people's thoughts.
Jiang Zichun looked at his father nervously and couldn't speak. He never expected that Jiang Fangjian would say such righteous words, but in comparison, this righteous father made him feel even more chill from the bottom of his heart.
"Come with me." Jiang Fangjian said in a deep voice.
The students from the rank of the ranks went to collect the ranks and acted according to the pre-arrangement. Jiang Xuezheng took the ranks of Jiang Tuanlian to the city tower.
However, he did not look at the military situation, but instead hid in front of the case, picked up a pen and wrote a letter. After the ink was dried, he personally sealed it and handed it over to Jiang Zichun.
"Dad, this is" Jiang Zichun looked at his father inexplicably.
"If the city is not lucky, you are involved in this huge change. If it is difficult for you to persevere in the city, you can open the city with those ordinary friends and tie me up and give it to Grand Master Cao, so that you can protect my Jiang family's life without worries."
Jiang Fangjian looked at his son with shocked face, turned his eyes to the warship flags that covered the sky outside the city, sighed, and continued, "If the Grand Master Cao succeeded in the court and did not repeat it, please keep this letter carefully and do not let others see it." He paused and continued, "If the general situation changes and Grand Master Cao fails, you can use this letter to contact the party members. My father and son follow Cheng Ying and Gongsun Chuju's previous events, which are also a loyal and martyr. In the future, Jiang's family will be promoted and honor the family, it depends on you." "My father."
Chun was shocked and was about to dissuade him. Jiang Fangjian waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Don't talk too much, be a sensible attitude of children. In the past few days of the siege of the city, you will stay in the city and not leave one step." He ignored Jiang Zichun who was kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice: "I don't object to you to make friends with those bad friends. Men should take on major tasks and not help without arms. Three friends of the wise, friends are straight and friends, and friends are grateful and knowledgeable. You can experience it yourself in the future." After saying that, Jiang Fangjian turned around and left, the army was approaching, and the chaos in the city had to be sorted out.
"Dad" Jiang Zichun knelt on the ground, watching his father's back disappear outside the corridor of the city tower, his vision becoming more and more blurred. At this moment, something seemed to have broken in his head with a "bang".

The army outside the city waited for a long time, but the city was opened. Xuezheng was not willing to let the messenger go to the city. The vanguard general Fan Qi couldn't help but get anxious and asked whether to attack the city.
"These rats dare to resist the army?" Cao Di was very angry. The Jiang family was the domineering of Yonglong. In his eyes, they were just a local dog.
"Have you made it clear to them?" Cao Di looked at Ya Bing who came to report the news. Until now, he still didn't believe that a native dog dared to stop in front of thousands of tigers and wolves.
"It's clear." Ya Bing Zhan said tremblingly, "General Fan asked someone to shout at the city head, but the city head didn't believe it. He said that the court's palace report only saw the news of Grand Master Cao leading the northern expedition of Xiangyang Camp. How could he go south instead? It must be pretending."
"Silly! Excuse me!" Cao Di breathed heavily, "Just forget it?"
"No," Ya Bing said again, "General Fan shot the commander's handwriting into the city and sent a messenger in, but the result was." He did not dare to say anything.
"What's the result?" Cao Di said angrily.
"The people in the city didn't even look at it. They tore the commander's handwriting, and the messenger disappeared. They insisted that we were fake."
"Dare you, rats!" Cao Di was furious and reached out to press his sword.
His hand was pressed on the hilt of the sword, pondered for a long time, but he never ordered the army to attack the city. Yonglong County is not a strong city. He only needs one finger to teach these arrogant local dogs a lesson. However, soldiers are very fast.
The Xiangyang camp took down almost all the eyes and ears of the court overnight, and the next day he swore to go south with lightning speed, so that he would fight slowly. Before the court could react, he would conquer Ezhou. The most important thing was to use the emperor to command the princes. After Yonglong County, Yang Fan would be in the southeast and be smooth sailing. He could enter the city of Ezhou in less than a day and a night. The generals who could fight and train for a long time had already been drawn northward. If the door opened, no one in Ezhou could resist the Xiangyang army.
"The big thing is important." Cao Di stood up, walked for two steps, and said in a deep voice, "Fan Qi left two thousand infantrymen to look at Yonglong County, don't let the rats escape. He led three thousand cavalry and marched towards Ezhou quickly, so that he can't delay."
