Chapter 675: The Enemy is in Kaifeng Mansion Three
Tong Guan, Gao Yongnian and Zhang Shu broke through Xingling at night, shattered the Western Xia, and the dream of building an immortal achievement did not last long, but because of the arrival of Zhong Fu, Wang Hou and others, it was shattered.
Zhong Fu and Wang Hou and their entourage were also in a hurry, and it took nearly 200 miles to complete the journey in one day and one night.
By the time they arrived at the Ancient Bone Dragon City (which had been burned down), Tong Guan, Gao Yongnian, Zhang Shuye, Renduo Baozhong, Gao Yu, Wang Yu, and less than 7,000 palace front troops, including auxiliary soldiers, as well as 4,000 Han elite cavalry carefully selected by Gao Yongnian, had already packed up and were ready to go to Tongchuan Fort.
Before the 11,000 army was launched, Zhong Fu led people to drive horses!
Seeing Zhong Fu's appearance in the dust, the others were fine, and Zhang Shuye and Tong Guan immediately chuckled in their hearts.
Because they knew that they had been busy for a long time, and the great achievement that was about to reach the mouth was about to be taken away by Zhong Fu, the deputy envoy of Xining and Jingyuan.
Without Zhong Fu, Zhang Shuye thinks that he, the governor of Lanzhou, is undoubtedly the commander of the battle north of the Yellow River, at least the nominal commander!
Because whether it is Kaluo River or Qinwang River, they are actually affiliated areas of Lanzhou. Moreover, the battle of Karochuan-Qinwangchuan also had to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Fanhan Dynasty in Lanzhou. Without him, the cooperation of the governor of Lanzhou will not work at all!
In addition, the secret decree of the official family to win over Renduo to protect his loyalty was held by Zhang Shuye. There are also four words on the secret decree "act cheaply", and Zhang Shuye can naturally pull the tiger skin as a banner, and march into Kaluo River and Qin Wangchuan with the assistance of Renduo Baozhong.
And Tong Guan's opinion is the same as that of Zhang Shuye, and he also thinks that he is the commander of the first battle between Karochuan and Qin Wangchuan. Because the soldiers and horses in Lanzhou are also under the jurisdiction of the Taoxi Fusi, he is the supervisor of the Taoxi Army, and Wang Hou is the commander of the three armies when he is not there.
Wasn't the commander of the Song Army in the previous Battle of the Haoqian River Tong Guan? The next Karochuan-Qin Wangchuan, he is not the commander, who will be the commander? Wang Hou? Wang Hou also had to appease the newly acquired Huangzhou, Kuozhou, and half of Shanzhou (and half of it was given to the Renjia family).
Although Tong Guan and Zhang Shuye both want to be coaches, they are not ready to bite for Shuai Yin. After all, a commander can also balance the configuration of a supervising army.
But Zhong Fu's arrival disappointed the two of them.
Zhong Fu is the deputy envoy of the two roads, and his status is second only to Lu Huiqing! and presided over the military of Xihe Road, as soon as he arrived, he was naturally the commander......
Gao Yongnian, like Tong Guan and Zhang Shuye, sank in his heart, and felt bad all of a sudden. Because he saw that the seed master Ji followed Zhong Fu here! The breeder is a veteran general of the Western Army, and his status is not below Gao Yongnian, and the breeder has a very high reputation in the Western Army. As soon as the division came, he naturally wanted to lead the army with Gao Yongnian, and even replaced Gao Yongnian and became the main general of the army.
And when Zhong Fu said his intentions, even Gao Yu and Wang Yu felt bad.
Counting heads and captives?
What does that mean? The heads and captives had been counted, and now the house slaves and knights in their early two thousand had put together the heads of a house. The other half of the rest is about the same, and one or two more thieves will be fine. Therefore, Gao Yu, who shouted in his throat, didn't make much effort, and he puffed up the fighting spirit of the troops again.
But now Xining and Jingyuan have sent a deputy envoy to check the head and take prisoners!
Gao Yu is not a martial artist with insufficient experience, how could he not know the officialdom truth of "Shangguan is never wrong"?
Zhong Fu himself is Shangguan, and he was sent by Lu Huiqing, a bigger Shangguan. Surely they don't believe in the number of beheadings and prisoners!
And Shangguan can't be wrong, then the number of beheadings and prisoners must be wrong!
If these two numbers are wrong, then the house that is said to be good will be skipped...... If it was the elite in front of the palace during the Five Dynasties period that people were fooled like this, I am afraid that even the emperor would have to be replaced. The current palace army will not be like that, and the mutiny will probably not be, but it is probably impossible for them to go to the battlefield again.
After all, the palace in front of the palace and the dragon warrior have been fighting hard for a long time, and they have long been tired divisions, and they should ask for a month of rest.
Besides, the house is gone, what strength do people have to go to the battlefield? What kind of face does Gao Yu and Captain Gao have to take them to the battlefield?
"Zhong Envoy," Gao Yu stepped forward on his horse, and then dismounted and bowed, "The royal horse in front of the Xiaguan Palace commanded Gao Yu to be polite." β
Zhong Fu rode on the horse, just nodded slightly, as if there was frost on his face, and he didn't give a good face at all.
Of course he knew that Gao Yu was the henchman of the official family! But Gao Yu is a person on the side of the old party - he was born under the Dongpo family, and he took Wang Xu's path to become the confidant of the official family in the hidden mansion, and he also had a little relationship with the Empress Dowager Gao, the general backstage of the Yuanyou traitorous party.
Such a person is still the commander of the elite soldiers in front of the palace! This is no joke...... So Zhong Fu and Gao Yu have nothing to say.
No, Gao Yu, who has made great contributions in the northwest, is now a thorn in the side of the entire new party, and it is even more terrible than Wu Haogu.
Wu Haogu is only rich, and he also put forward Lao Shizi's "Empirical Theory", but he has no strength in Kaifeng Mansion. Once the official family that favored him is gone, maybe a holy decree will ruin the family.
But Gao Yu has thousands of elite soldiers in front of the palace! At the critical moment, a coup d'Γ©tat can be launched...... Back then, Emperor Yizu, didn't he rely on the elite of the palace army to win the world of Hou Zhou?
"Commander Gaodu," Zhong Fu asked in a calm voice, "You have reported a lot of beheading prisoners, but you have checked them one by one, and no one will kill the good and make false reports, right?" β
"No, it won't ......"
As soon as the words came out, Gao Yu's face suddenly changed greatly. There are really good things to kill! However, it was not the army in front of the palace that did it, but the Xihe army commanded by Gao Yongnian and the army of Renduo Baozhong.
Of course, this kind of "killing the good" is not for the sake of merit, but for combat needs...... At that time, there was no need for the Wenbu people to block the road of Renduo's loyalty. Renduo Baozhong has already run back to Renduo Spring City!
And Gao Yongnian's troops were ordered to "kill the good", so they easily cut off the heads of some of the "good people" of the Tibetan department (to be precise, they are the good people of Western Xia) to repay the merit.
Now the scene of "killing good" is still on the bank of the Haokang River and has not been dealt with! If Zhong Fu is allowed to see it, then the royal horse in front of the palace and the dragon warrior will not be able to wash it clean even if they jump into the Yellow River.
"Then I'll bother you to lead the way in front," Zhong Fu said, "This official will test the head!" β
"But," Gao Yu said in a hoarse voice, "but the subordinate still has to lead the troops to attack......
"Sortie?" Zhong Fu asked, "Who are you hitting?" β
"Fight the western thieves," Gao Yu said, "the great leader of Renduo has offered a plan, and he can take the Kaluo River and the Qin Wangchuan in one fell swoop." The army in front of the palace led by the lower officials is going to take the lead......"
The army in front of the palace must take the lead!
Gao Yu said this, of course, he wanted Zhong Fu to spare him. Now if we pursue what kills the good and what makes false reports. Then the thousands of people in front of the palace army will not be able to go to the battlefield. Without them, it would have been difficult for the Xining Army to defeat the Iron Harriers and garrisons commanded by Brother Wei Mingcha.
But how could Zhong Fu let others make meritorious contributions and follow the soy sauce himself? Here, he's the boss!
"Are you going to cross the Yellow River and attack the territory of the Western Thieves?" Zhong Fu asked in a calm voice, "Is there a general order from Fu Si?" β
"General?" Gao Yu looked back at Tong Guan and Zhang Shuye.
Uncle Zhang's face turned pale, and he immediately arched his hand and said: "Minister, the lower officials have secret intentions, and they are allowed to act cheaply." β
The secret purpose?
Still acting cheaply?
This time it was Zhong Fu's turn to frown, how could the official family cross the Xihe River and Jingyuan Fusi to transfer troops to a governor below to fight?
Isn't this a child's play to fight a war? It is taboo to use soldiers to order multiple doors!
Because of the great suspicion of this dynasty, the command in front of the army has been dismantled and dismantled, and the generals do not know what kind of system they have, whether they are civil or military, and they also use lieutenant officials to supervise the army and even directly lead the troops. It's all a mess, and now it's still coming to Zhongzhi to transfer troops, how will you command the war in the future?
"Where is the purpose?" Zhong Fu said, "Take a look." β
Uncle Zhang had no choice at night, so he took out a fold from his arms with a gloomy face and handed it to Zhong Fu with both hands. Zhong Fu unfolded it and looked at it, and there was a familiar thin gold body on it, not only the middle decree, but also the edict.
However, the content is to recruit Renduo to protect loyalty, and the so-called cheap action should also be effective when recruiting Renduo to protect loyalty.
This Uncle Zhang's courage is not small!
"Humph!" Zhong Fu snorted coldly, "Zhongzhi doesn't mean to fight with the Western Thieves. Zhang Jizhong, you misunderstood the meaning of the officials. β
ββ¦β¦β
Uncle Zhang had nothing to say at night, and Zhong Fu ordered: "The army will rest for another day, and after the official has judged the situation, he will decide whether to attack or not." β
Zhong Fu is about to take command!
No, it's not to take it, he has the right in the first place! He is the deputy envoy of Xihe and Jingyuan to pacify them. Lu Huiqing counted him the biggest. Now that Lu Huiqing is not here, everyone naturally listens to him.
And he still has two general orders issued by the commander in his hand: inspect Taoxi and Xining military affairs!
"Whoa!"
The generals had no choice but to receive Zhong Fu's general order.
Zhong Fu nodded, and then said to Gao Yu: "Take this official to check the head!" β
Gao Yu sighed, bowed and saluted: "Oh! β
The first stage, piled up like a hill, has begun to emit a pungent smell because of the hot weather. When Zhong Fu arrived with the seed master, as well as Wu Haowen who felt Wu Haowen who was forced to vomit, and Gao Yu, who was depressed. A ragged Wenbu woman and child, numb and driven by the Fan army under Gao Yongnian, was digging a pit, as if preparing to bury the head and the corpse.
And the corpses, especially those dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, men, women, the elderly, and even children, were densely packed and layered, piling up a large area of river valley.
A considerable part of them, without heads!
"Humph!" Zhong Fu's face was pale, and he half-turned around, looking at Gao Yu, who was wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost, "Gao Yu! Are you guilty? β
