Chapter 761: The Good Man and the Bad Guy
If he really followed what Qin Ming said, guarded Zhoukou and waited for His Royal Highness King Yun's soldiers and horses to fight back, then there would be no hope at all. It is true that if you send troops outside the city, you will encounter many dangers, so Zhao Yougong has led the troops for many years, and it is impossible to completely empty the surroundings, otherwise leaving his rear unobstructed to the enemy is not asking for trouble for himself? Knowing that some soldiers and horses of the Dingguo Army were left nearby, Hua Rong resolutely chose to go out of the city, he didn't want to accompany Qin Ming to defend Zhoukou, so he could force Qin Ming to have no choice.
Hua Rong's infantry and cavalry were mixed, there were more than 8,000 people, and they were killing Chenzhou in a mighty way, and now the Dingguo army was due to the lack of troops, most of them rushed to Huainan, so from Zhoukou to Chenzhou did not encounter a little obstruction, and the smooth was extraordinary. However, what is even more unexpected is that Hua Rong arrived at the city of Chenzhou, and did not take advantage of the fact that the Dingguo army had not yet returned to attack and attack, but ordered all departments to rest ten miles south of the city. Hua Rong's scene made everyone confused, but at this time, Qin Ming in Zhoukou County was still standing still, and he couldn't understand what Hua Rong was going to do for a while. Yang Zaixing looked at Zhoukou County in the distance, his sword eyebrows raised, his eyebrows squeezed together, what is Hua Rong going to do? Do you want to lead the troops to catch up with Hua Rong? Yang Zaixing has never hesitated like this, he is not afraid of Hua Rong's troops and horses, although he only has a few thousand cavalry, and he does not have much advantage over Hua Rong, but he is still very confident in defeating Hua Rong. If Hua Rong is deliberately leading people to hit him, what should he do? Unable to judge the opponent's marching intentions, it is easy to make a big mistake if you act rashly.
In the distance, a war horse, immediately the cavalryman was dressed in fiery red cloth armor, and a blood-red scarf was wrapped around his arm, and the scout had returned. The scout flew and dismounted. Ran in front of Yang Zaixing and arched his hand, "General Yang, His Royal Highness has ordered General Yang not to pay attention to Hua Rong's department, and to use all his troops and horses to storm Zhoukou County." If Hua Rong returns to help, he will withdraw his troops immediately. ”
After getting the military order, Yang Zaixing breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that His Royal Highness is not sure what Hua Rong is going to do, since His Royal Highness ordered to attack Zhoukou County, what are you waiting for. On the same day, Yang Zaixing ordered all the troops to assemble and launched a fierce attack on the west gate of Zhoukou County, which had also been attacked by the Dingguo army before. But it was all a small fight, and this time Yang Zaixing stormed the city wall with a thunderous force, which made the rebels in the city unable to adapt for a while. When Hua Rong left Zhoukou, he asked Qin Ming to be more careful, but Qin Ming didn't take it to heart, after all, most of the Dingguo army was staring at Zhao Kai in Huainan, and the rest of the people also had to deal with the pressure from the Chai family's soldiers and horses, where did they care about a small Zhoukou County. Attacking Zhoukou County was a matter of complete outweigh the losses for the Dingguo Army. Throughout the past ten years, Zhao Yougong seems to rarely do such unhelpful things. Qin Ming thought he had a plan, but unfortunately he ran into Yang Zaixing, who was more serious, and he didn't fight if he didn't fight, but since he wanted to fight, he had to beat the rebels. Yang Zaixing personally pressed the formation, the soldiers all marched forward bravely, the cavalry dismounted, and attacked the city gate with a shield, and the ability did not lose at all.
"Damn it. Yang Zaixing took the wrong medicine, what did he do with Zhoukou? Go, tell Ye Chen, let him lead people to the West Gate, if a thief soldier is let in, Lao Tzu will cut off his head" After the herald left, Qin Ming was still a little uneasy, and personally led his own soldiers to the city. As soon as he saw the fighting situation in the city, he felt a little numb, because the Dingguo army had no intention of feint at all, but whenever they feint, as soon as they encountered resistance, they would inevitably retreat.
The siege of the city was in full swing, and Yang Zaixing was paying attention to the situation in Zhoukou City while waiting for news from Chenzhou. At this time, Hua Rong was also waiting, and in the evening, the spies who stayed near Zhoukou rushed to Chenzhou, the spies were covered with dust, tired and out of breath, obviously in a hurry, "General Hua, the thieves have moved, Yang Zaixing led thousands of cavalry to kill out of nowhere, and suddenly attacked Zhoukou County, and now Zhoukou is in danger." ”
Zhoukou was in danger, but a smile flashed at the corner of Hua Rong's mouth, he didn't know why the Dingguo Army wanted to fight Zhoukou, but as long as the Dingguo Army made a move, it would provide him with a chance. Put on the armor and lift the treasure knife, Hua Rong strode to the outside of the tent, "All departments listen to the order, the whole army is pulled, Hua Mou wants to take Yingzhou, hum, I want to see who can stop our troops from attacking the south of Chenzhou now." ”
Yingzhou, further south is Yingshang County, Hua Rong dangled a shot in Chenzhou, raided the defenseless Yingzhou, and now Yingzhou is defenseless, how to resist the rebels who suddenly killed? What's more, the troops in the city are empty, even if they are prepared, they can't stop the Huarong army. Hua Rong had already prepared, and the spies who were ambushed in Yingzhou City in advance opened the city gate, and the two sides should cooperate inside and outside, and soon defeated Yingzhou. By the next hour, the whole city of Yingzhou was taken over by the rebels, and the ancient city of Yingzhou, a few days after belonging to the Dingguo army, changed hands again. At this time, even a fool knows what Hua Rong is going to do, and of course taking Yingzhou is not to find a place to live, but to better attack Yingshang County to the south. Hua Rong's trick is played beautifully, almost everyone has not been deceived by Hua Rong, who would have thought that after the rebels were defeated and lost in Yingshang County, they would re-send troops here, and at this time, most of the rebels' soldiers and horses were in Huainan, Hua Rong did this, it was tantamount to going deep alone, at this time, it didn't take too much, as long as there was a soldier and horse in Yingshang County who could hold out until Yang Zaixing's cavalry arrived, Hua Rong had the ability to reach the sky, and he couldn't save the fate of destruction.
Hua Rong is in a very difficult situation, but there is no danger at all. Now there are only 300 soldiers and horses in Yingshang County, and the soldiers and horses from Jiangning Mansion and the father and son of the Liang family have been transferred to Huainan, relying on 300 people to block Huarong's more than 8,000 troops, and they are even heavenly soldiers and generals who can't resist it. Yingshang County guards the southern exit of Yingzhou, and you can enter the land of Jingxiang to the south, just like a fish entering the sea, let it leap, in such an important place, how could Zhao Yougong transfer the soldiers and horses? Speaking of which, it is really helpless, the Dingguo Army can invest too few soldiers and horses in Huainan against Zhao Kai, Huainan is such a big place, and there are Yangzhou and other places that need to be guarded, of course, the more soldiers and horses, the better. In desperation, Zhao Yougong left the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion under his command to be used, as for Yingshang County, after the defeat of Ma Tian, the rebels fled to Huainan, and they should not have any thoughts about Yingshang County. It's a pity that when he met Hua Rong and was in a desperate situation, Hua Rong chose to gamble on his life, so he bet that he could get through Yingshang County, but he let him win the bet.
In the palace, Zhao Yougong's expression was solemn, and his fists were clenched tightly. Originally, Yangzhou's victory relieved the Dingguo army, but Hua Rong dangled a shot in Chenzhou and killed Yingshang County, completely disrupting all plans. If Hua Rong really takes Yingshang County, it will break into the boundary of Jiangning Prefecture and open the passage from Huainan to the Taihu Lake Basin to the north. So what's the point of the Dingguo Army's hard work to hold Yangzhou? I have to admit that I really underestimated Hua Rong, but I didn't expect that without Wu Xuexue, Hua Rong would be able to accomplish such a magical feat.
Dongfang Jin's face lost the relaxed smile of the past, the goose feather fan was inserted in the teacup, and his fingers kept scratching his knees, which really allowed Hua Rong to open up the passage from Huainan to the Taihu Lake Basin, and the rebels were about to go all the way south, spreading branches and leaves in Suzhou Mansion and the land of Jingxiang. In any case, you have to stop Hua Rong. Even if you don't care about Zhao Kai first, Hua Rong's ability is too strong, and he is loyal to Song Jiang, it's really a headache, "Your Highness, for today's plan, you can only organize soldiers and horses from Jiangning Mansion, but"
How could Dongfang Jin not have a headache? Jiangning Mansion has soldiers and horses. Originally, the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion were to support Suzhou Mansion, but now Suzhou Mansion is no longer available. There are soldiers and horses, but who will lead the troops? The father and son of the Liang family are still listening to it in the tent, Zhao Yougong understood what Dongfang Jin meant, and he immediately turned his gaze to the old man sitting at the end, "Old General Liang, I don't know if there are good generals in Jiangning Mansion now?" ”
Liang Fangluo hurriedly got up. After thinking about it, he shook his head, "Back to the regent, the last generals are now obeying orders in Bozhou, and there are generals in Jiangning Mansion, but they just want to rush to Yingshang County." It's really hard to deal with the thief Kou Huarong! ”
Liang Fangluo has been in charge of the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion for two years, and he knows the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion well. Getting this kind of answer, Zhao Yougong also felt a little painful, and he hated less when he was about to use it, Ning Guoxiao was very good, but Suzhou Mansion was also inseparable from Ning Guoxiao, and there were many good generals under his command, but far from quenching his thirst, and when he sent someone to Jiangning Mansion, it was estimated that Hua Rong would have broken Yingshang County and gone deep into the land of Jingxiang. Look at Zhao Yougong's frowning, Liang Fangluo also had a lot of sorrows, he hesitated, his mouth opened but swallowed back, as if he was worried, Zhao Yougong saw this, and said peacefully, "Old general, the tent is all your own people, you have nothing to say but it doesn't matter." ”
"In this way, then the last general will be rotten, the last general will have a grandson, although he is a woman, but he practices martial arts and knows a little bit of the art of war, perhaps, she has organized soldiers and horses to rush to Yingshang County at this time, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, please send reinforcements to your Royal Highness quickly."
After listening to Liang Fanglue's words, Zhao Yougong slapped his forehead and secretly said confused, the father and son of the Liang family were in front of him, why did he forget about the tiger girl who was the gatekeeper. Although Liang Hongyu has not experienced much polishing now, her foundation should be good, if she leads the troops to Yingshang County, she may not be able to defeat Hua Rong, at least she can hold out for two or three days. His Royal Highness Zhao trusts Liang Hongyu, but the generals in the account don't know who Liang Hongyu is, especially a woman, I really think that a woman is as powerful as Princess Xiao or Zhu Niangzi, Han Shizhong, as the pillar of the Dingguo Army, immediately got up and said, "Old general, you are also joking, the military aircraft is a big event, how can you hand over all your hopes to a girl?" Your Royal Highness, according to the plan of the last general, you don't have to worry about Huarong's department at the moment, and it is best to attack Haozhou with all your might. ”
Storming Haozhou, even if it is defeated, it will inevitably cause heavy casualties, otherwise if it is easy to fight, why should tens of thousands of Dingguo troops stay in Huainan and stay still? If it is not necessary, I really don't want to storm Haozhou, but now that Hua Rong's troops are out of Yingshang County, there is no way to determine the national army, and if they don't fight, when Zhao Kai's soldiers and horses escape from Huainan, the situation will be even worse.
Zhao Yougong looked at Han Shizhong with some amusement, it was really funny, General Han didn't know who the little lady of the Liang family was in this time and space. was directly looked at by His Royal Highness Zhao, Han Shizhong also had hair on his back, looking left and right, it didn't seem that there was anything wrong, why did His Highness look at himself like this?
"Haha, Liangchen, this king is different from you, this king thinks that the little lady of the Liang family still has some ability, Sanniang, Uncle Xin, you two quickly go to order 4,000 soldiers and horses, an hour later, the king of Sui rushed to Jiangning Mansion, in addition, the herald Yang Zaixing, go to Yingzhou quickly, this king will take Huarong in one fell swoop this time!"
Han Shizhong was a little confused, what the hell? His Royal Highness Zhao wants to personally lead the troops to Jiangning Mansion, what if that Liang Hongyu is unreliable? Han Shizhong looked at Dongfang vigorously, but the dog-headed military advisor, who had always been ingenious, squinted and began to nap, completely ignoring General Han. Han Shizhong's words and persuasions were useless, and the others consciously didn't bother. Han Shizhong was honored to become the temporary commander of the Huainan army, the second in command of the dog-headed military division Dongfang Jinju, while His Royal Highness Zhao led Sanniang, Mu Wanqing and Liu Jian and 4,000 soldiers and horses from the west of Huainan to Jiangning Mansion.
After Zhao Yougong left, Han Shizhong directly dragged Dongfang Jin, who was napping, and asked angrily, "My Mr. Dongfang, you don't have a lot of ideas on weekdays, why does Your Highness take such a big risk, and you don't know how to admonish?" ”
Dongfang Jin's slightly wrinkled clothes were neatly wrinkled, waved his hand and sighed, "General, why can't you think about such a simple thing?" That little lady Liang is the granddaughter of General Liang, if that girl doesn't have some real skills, General Liang dares to say such things? You know, if something happens to Yingshang County, the little lady of the Liang family will be the first to be dealt with by military law, do you think that General Liang will harm his granddaughter? Moreover, a certain family has also heard a little about the vicious battle in Yingshang County, and I heard that the little lady of the Liang family is brave and good at fighting, and her heroic posture is scorching, and she has the demeanor of Sanniang. ”
Han Shizhong suddenly lost his temper, he dared to love this confused army breaker who understood everything, but he Han Shizhong was in a hurry. It's just that what does Liang Hongyu have to do with herself, why was His Highness's eyes so strange before?
On the way to Jiangning Mansion, Mu Wanqing and Sanniang walked together, and Zhao Yougong and Liu Jian followed behind, "Your Highness, I don't know what you think of Hua Rong?" ”
Hearing Liu Jian ask, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, "Hua Rong was born as a general, if he uses it well, he should be a good general, but it's a pity that this person admires Song Jiang and is very loyal, if you want to persuade him to surrender, I'm afraid it's a little difficult." ”
Sanniang walked in the front, but she could hear the conversation behind, she slowed down, waited for the two behind her to follow, and said softly, "Official, in fact, if you want to surrender to Huarong, it is not impossible!" ”
"Sanniang has a way?" Zhao Yougong was overjoyed when he heard this, but seeing Sanniang's frowning appearance, he couldn't be happy again, and it seemed that Sanniang didn't have much confidence.
Xiao Li Guanghuarong, is there any hope? In short, if you don't stay, kill this person! (To be continued......)
