Chapter 70: King Zhou welcomes him

In the north city, the city gate is opened.

Huang Shu took the few soldiers in the city and lined up to meet the army under the command of Shandong Zhen into the city.

In front of the camp, Zheng Qi'er said in surprise: "Master Tiger, look...... Many people welcome us! ”

Fang Sanhu said with a smile: "From today onwards, we will be officers and soldiers!" ”

Behind them, in the car camp.

Hou Fangyu's face was ugly: "Father...... Let's enter Kaifeng City. ”

"Enter...... City? Hou Fangyu looked at the smiles in front of and behind him, Liu Zeqing, Qi Xian and others, and the smile on his face was more ugly than crying: "We will soon become a waste like Liu Zeqing......

The Governor Camp is finished.

This standard supervision battalion composed of the Beijing camp as the backbone was built very quickly, and it can be said that it is faster than Zhu Cihong's Shandong Town.

Although, compared with Shandong Town, which was expanded by Zhu Cihong's 500 people as the backbone, Jingying has 2,000 people as the backbone. But in fact, the grassroots officers who can be used in the Beijing camp are far fewer than Zhu Cihong's veterans brought out of the Beijing camp.

These veterans in Zhu Cihong's hands are all wounded soldiers who have fought on the Huguang battlefield. Since they are wounded soldiers, most of them have combat experience.

But Hou Fangyu's supervising battalion was much worse, not to mention being detained by the generals, which caused the soldiers to generally lack food and clothing, and low morale. Let's just say that the first ten years of accumulation of shortcomings in the Beijing camp, there are no good soldiers in the Beijing division.

With such a backbone composed of the Beijing battalion, the supervising battalion after the expansion of the army is completely the same.

Such a look is against the war-torn elite under the command of the Red Lady, and it is naturally a one-touch collapse. If it weren't for the fact that Liu Sheng's troops came to the aid in the end and let the red lady retreat quickly, I am afraid that the number of the Governor Battalion would no longer exist at this moment.

It's just that. Although there is still a number left. However, many of the people in the camp have fled, and the morale of the people is even lower.

No soldiers. can't control Shandong Town, what's the point of Hou Sui still entering Kaifeng at this moment?

This moment. Hou Sui suddenly sounded what happened to Liu Zeqing.

As soon as he thought of this, Hou Sui suddenly felt a sorrowful cry rising in his chest.

"Father, ......" Hou Fangyu suddenly walked over again.

When Hou Sui heard this, he was extremely bored, and said impatiently: "What's the matter?" ”

"His Royal Highness King Zhou...... Welcomed? Hou Fangyu said softly, not daring to anger Hou Sui.

Hou Sui felt a burst of surprise: "Is it to welcome me?" ”

At this moment, Hou couldn't help but think.

If King Zhou was willing to support him, then Hou Xun's situation would suddenly become extraordinarily better. You must know that King Zhou is different from King Fu and other vassal kings, this is a very enlightened and generous vassal king.

The first two battles of Kaifeng. When Li Zicheng came to attack, it was King Zhou who contributed several times to save the day. You must know that there are countless natural and man-made disasters in Henan, and the treasury has long been empty.

When Li Zicheng attacked Luoyang, Lao Fu Wang guarded his mansion and did not give a dime to the defenders, so Li Zicheng finally made Fushou soup and cooked it.

But when Li Zicheng attacked Kaifeng, King Zhou was extremely open-minded, and moved one million and fifty thousand taels of silver from the palace.

In this way, although the king of Zhou could not interfere in military affairs because of the vassal king. But it can be said to have great influence on Henan's military and politics.

With the support of such a person, Hou Sui instantly changed from an empty commander with no soldiers and no money to a powerful faction.

When the time comes, it will not be easy to knead Zhu Cihong again.

Thinking of this, Hou Sui didn't care about Hou Fangyu's strange expression. He hurriedly rushed out of the carriage, and just happened to see himself entering the city gate.

Officers and troops entered the city one after another.

But the camp stopped in an open area outside the city gate and did not move.

Because......

Ahead, Zhu Cihong smiled. Looking at King Zhou, he said apologetically: "I am so tired that His Royal Highness came to greet him in person, and the lower officials are ashamed." ”

King Zhou kindly and gently personally helped Zhu Cihong up. Said: "Lord Qin personally led the troops to rescue Kaifeng. Such kindness, Kaifeng is toothless and unforgettable. The old man walked a few steps. Out of the way, out of the way! ”

"This is the strong soldiers of Shandong Town? It lives up to its name, it lives up to its name! King Zhou said, looked at the Shandong town generals who entered the city in a group, and said in admiration.

These officers and soldiers gave him a completely different atmosphere.

Not to mention anything else, when other officers and soldiers entered the city, which one was not like seeing a hungry wolf and seeing food, their eyes were green, and they couldn't wait to eat enough.

But this official army is very simple, looking at the onlookers, they don't look directly at each other, as if they have seen the eldest daughter for the first time.

This kind of soldier makes people very happy to watch.

Zhu Cihong followed King Zhou's gaze and glanced over, but saw Hou Sui who had just gotten out of the carriage and ran over.

Seeing this, Zhu Cihong's eyes lit up slightly, and he said with a smile: "Speaking of which, I want to introduce it to His Highness." This is the Governor of the Military Affairs of the Three Provinces. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Cihong walked over, looked at Hou Sui, took Hou Sui's hand, and slowly supported him, as if he was an extraordinarily respectful descendant.

But at this moment, Hou Sui was looking blankly at the mighty and powerful officers and soldiers of Shandong Town, who were slowly entering the city, and his heart trembled.

Glancing at the cordial conversation between Zhu Cihong and King Zhou again, Hou Sui felt that his heart had fallen into the ice valley.

King Zhou came to receive Zhu Cihong in person!

As soon as he thought of this, Hou Sui felt that his imagination had become particularly ridiculous.

"His Royal Highness King Zhou......" Hou Sui looked at King Zhou, trying his best to calm down his not calm mind and not make a fool of himself.

King Zhou looked at Hou Sui in front of him, glanced at Zhu Cihong again, and said with a slight smile in his heart: "The superintendent was ordered by the saint to rescue Kaifeng, which can be said to be the hope of the whole of Henan. ”

After the scene, Zhu Cihong seamlessly connected and said with a smile: "So, for such a noble figure as the Inspector, it is better to live directly near the palace." At that time, it must be very convenient for the generals in Kaifeng City to gather and discuss. Hearing that there were a lot of losses in another battle of the Inspector Battalion, the subordinate officials felt guilty after thinking about it. It is better to do this, and the lower officials will transfer another 1,000 people to the superintendent camp to defend the superintendent. I don't know, what does the overseer think? ”

When Zhu Cihong said this, Lao Seventeen happened to lead more than a dozen people to take away a general. Seeing the man's face, Hou Xun's eyes shrank.

That's the general of the Governor Battalion, and the Red Lady came to attack and retreated without a trace!

Looking at the officers and soldiers of Shandong Town who were still entering Kaifeng City, as if they were endless, Hou Sui felt that his breathing was extremely difficult.

"This official ......" Hou Sui gasped, slowly calmed down, and said, "But I want to thank Lord Qin for such a righteous act." ”

After speaking, Hou Sui's eyes were burning, as if he had recovered countless spirits in an instant, staring at Zhu Gongqiao, the king of Zhou, and countless meanings of asking for help were in his eyes. (To be continued......)
