Chapter 161: Evil Spirits

The difficulty of attacking Zhuozhou was actually not high, especially when the defenders of Zhuozhou were troubled by the deployment of troops in Youzhou Zhizhou, they had no intention of fighting the Song army at all.

The only thing that is a little tangled is that when Yan Lou attacked Zhuozhou, the generals arranged by the Song court in Zhuozhou did not even send a single person and surrendered directly.

Although Wanyan Lou still slaughtered the city, he spared these generals and let them continue to be in charge of the defense of Zhuozhou.

They are already people who have betrayed once, and they will betray again and return to their original camp, not to mention whether others will talk about it behind their backs, this resume alone determines that they are destined not to be promoted again.

Maybe the imperial court will find an excuse to send them to Lingnan to die a slow death.

Therefore, they can't betray, and under the compulsion of the situation, they have only the road to fight to the death.

Huang Jin is a Wenchen sent by Zhao Ji, and his own war to recover Yanyun has nothing to do with him.

However, the tradition of the Great Song Kingdom is that Wenchen leads the troops, and the military generals work for Wenchen. However, Zhao Ji sent Huang Jin to save face, and Tang Ning is still a person who speaks well in the army.

If there is not even a single Wenchen in the Ninth Route Army, then what confidence does Zhao Ji have to send other Wenchen to lead the troops to fight in the future?

What's more, if he doesn't send Wenchen to the Ninth Route Army, the people of the Wenchen Group must not go crazy?

So Tang Ning and Zhao Ji each took a step back, Tang Ning accepted Huang Jin's existence, and Huang Jin would not dictate military affairs under Zhao Ji's orders, obey Tang Ning's orders, and obey Tang Ning's command.

In this way, it is easy for everyone to do.

But this time he seemed to have found an opportunity to shine, and at the pre-war meeting, when Tang Ning arranged his troops according to the situation of the defenders of Zhuozhou, he stepped forward.

"Marshal, according to the humble opinion, we don't have to use troops against Zhuozhou."

As soon as these words came out, all the generals stared at him with wide eyes and waited for the next step. Tang Ning glanced at him and said, "Lord Huang has any tricks?" ”

Huang Jin said a little proudly: "I can't calculate the tricks, and I am willing to go out in person to persuade Zhizhou to surrender in Zhuozhou City." ”

Previously, when Tang Ning was recruiting the rebels, he had sent Huang Jin to Mizhou to deal with those rebels who were unwilling to accept recruitment.

They don't usually have much training, just a rabble that is not even a miscellaneous soldier. Gold naturally went with an army of 60,000 and killed wherever he went.

But this incident seems to have given Huang Jin some illusions, feeling that his plan is unparalleled in the world. Blind self-confidence caused him to fail to recognize the true nature of this matter, and he felt that as long as he tried to persuade the defenders of Zhuozhou to surrender, they would surrender obediently.

A general slapped the table and was about to stand up and ridicule him for not measuring his strength, but he was stopped by Tang Ning.

Liu Ling saw it on the side, and he was very sympathetic to Huang Jin in his heart.

"Since Lord Huang has a way to fight without blood

Take Zhuozhou, then let Lord Huang give it a try! It's just the arrangement just now, don't forget it.

If Lord Huang fails, we will use knives to make them open the gates of Zhuozhou City. ”

"Don't worry!" Huang Jin waved his hand and said, "It won't fail!" ”

Tang Ning arched his hand with a smile: "That handsome man is here waiting for Lord Huang's good news." ”

Huang Jin smiled, flicked his sleeves and left in a dashing manner. It can be seen that he is in a good mood.

Liu Ling glanced at Huang Jin's back, then at Tang Ning, and finally sighed and chased out the door.

Tang Ning watched Liu Ling leave coldly, pursed his lips, and asked around, "Do the generals have any other information and opinions to say?" ”

...... "Everyone look at me, I look at you, and they are silent."

Tang Ning nodded and said, "Since everyone has nothing to say, let's go and prepare." ”

"Yes!"

The generals got up and left.

Liu Ling caught up with Huang Jin outside the tent, and seeing his complacent appearance, Liu Ling persuaded: "Lord Huang, don't do anything about this." ”

Huang Jin turned his head and saw that it was Liu Ling, so he smiled and said, "It turned out to be the prison army." He arched his hand and asked strangely, "What is the Lord Warden talking about?" ”

Liu Ling said: "Naturally, you went to Zhuozhou City to persuade you to surrender, you don't know, they ......."

Huang Jin laughed and said, "Don't worry, Lord Supervisor." Huang is already confident about this matter, and the supervisor doesn't need to say much, just wait for Huang's good news!

They are all Song people with the same root and origin, and there is nothing that cannot be said. ”

Seeing that he was so confident, Liu Ling felt a little strange in his heart. Could it be that this Huang Jin knows the governor of Zhuozhou? Can you guarantee to the governor of Zhuozhou that he will not be punished?

If that's the case, it's not out of the question.

But if not......

Liu Ling remembered the information sent by the Wude Division yesterday.

In order to show his determination to fight to the death, the governor of Zhuozhou ordered that only seven days' grain and grass should be left in the county government warehouses, and all the rest would be burned.

Thinking of this, Liu Ling had a headache, Zhuozhou Zhizhou is really a ruthless person.

As the old saying goes, the mourning soldiers will win. Now the Jin army in Zhuozhou is already full of mourning soldiers, and if they can't beat the Song army, they will either be starved to death or hacked to death by the Song army, both horizontally and vertically, so it is better to fight with the Song army.

Therefore, this battle will be an extremely difficult battle, if Huang Jin can say that he can move the governor of Zhuozhou and take Zhuozhou without bloodshed, it will be regarded as his great achievement.

When Liu Ling thought of this, he no longer persuaded Huang Jin. began to help Huang Jin prepare the things he would use when he went to meet the governor of Zhuozhou.

At noon that day, Huang Jin left with two or three servants, Tang Ning personally saw him off, looked at Huang Jin's dashing back and left, and heard the moment when Huang Jin looked up to the sky and laughed

, Tang Ning also has the illusion that Huang Jin will really succeed.

However, in the blink of an eye, Tang Ning put this idea behind him, and the literati of the Great Song Kingdom were all like birds. I don't have any skills, but I can create an atmosphere.

With this idea, Tang Ning looked at Huang Jin again, and it was a feeling that the wind was sluggish and the water was cold, and the strong man was gone.

Huang Jin came back that night, but his servant sent him back.

Seeing the human head in the box, Liu Ling felt that he had a terrible headache.

The generals were talking, Tang Ning took the box from the hand of the servant who was crying non-stop, closed it and gently stroked it twice, and said with great grief: "Lord Huang, Lord Huang, why are you so gone!" ”

For the servant rode fast when he returned, and did not slow down the distance of six hundred paces before the camp. The soldiers on duty in the camp thought that they were the vanguard of the enemy attack, so they sounded the gongs and drums used for vigilance, and all the soldiers ran out to see the excitement.

Under the attention of everyone, Tang Ning reached out and touched his tears and said: "I think of the time when we ate and lived together, and I think of the scene when we fought side by side."

Lord Huang, you have a good rest, I will kill those bastards who have forgotten the number of books for you, and avenge you! ”

The soldiers in the army liked this kind of bullshit and righteous topic the most, and when Tang Ning created the atmosphere, they all felt the same way.

Among them, there are many guys with tears in their eyes.

Tang Ning turned around suddenly, held up the box containing Huang Jin's human head and said, "Gentlemen! Lord Huang made a request for peace to those people in Zhuozhou City with sincerity, but this was their answer.

Lord Huang, who shared our ups and downs for half a year, was brutally killed by them!

Brethren, I don't know what kind of mood you are feeling right now. But I can't bear it! I want them to pay with blood! I want them to pay for what they do!

I'm going to have them torn to pieces! ”

All the soldiers roared in unison: "Ten thousand broken corpses!" Thousands of corpses! ”

"Brethren! Take up your weapons and put on your armor! Let's fight to the death with these dogs tonight! ”

"You live or die! Rat! ”

Liu Ling watched these guys who were still talking about what they would eat tomorrow morning one second, and the next second they were flickered by Tang Ning's enthusiasm, he only felt that it was very cold this day, and he kept swinging.

I seem to have forgotten that Tang Ning's most powerful ability is not his command ability, nor his political ability. His ability to manipulate people's hearts is something he has only seen in his life.

He can always say the most appropriate words at the most appropriate time, so that people can change their minds and go in the direction he expects without looking back.

It's a ghost.

Liu Ling wanted to cry without tears, he released a demon twenty-seven years ago......
