Chapter 287: Soldiers are coming to the city

"How can this be, Wang Haojun is already married to his uncle, how can he marry my eldest brother again?" Li Juli was the first to raise his voice to object, "What's more, Wang Pu treats my second sister like that, how can the eldest brother still marry his daughter." If you want me to say, just take that slut to sacrifice the flag, or throw it directly into the brothel."

"Shut up!" Behind the screen, Mrs. Gao scolded that although Li Juli has always been rebellious, he has always obeyed Mrs. Gao's words, and shut up immediately. Mrs. Gao continued: "If my uncle is still worried about my second sister's affairs, please don't feel guilty. Although Wang Pu's daughter did have a marriage in my family at the beginning, since she has married her uncle, she is no longer the Wang family, but the Li family. Although she is only a concubine, how can an uncle give a concubine to his nephew as a wife. Please don't mention this matter to my uncle. ”

Wang Haojun, a woman, did make her husband very angry at the beginning, and he secretly thought that Li Jing was really dealing with Duli Town. Therefore, the queen did not wait for Li Jing's troops to arrive, and marched alone, resulting in a big defeat. If it were possible, Mrs. Gao would want to cut this woman with a thousand knives. But now this woman is Li Jing's concubine, and this is a woman who has captivated the city and the country, since Li Jing didn't care about Qingnicheng's reaction and left her at the beginning, she must be greedy for his beauty.

With such a woman, how could Li Jing really be willing to give it away? Mrs. Gao thought that this was just a gesture made by Li Jing, otherwise, why would he say that marrying her to his son and killing her directly would not be more reassuring to the Li family. However, at the moment, Qingnicheng still has to rely on Li Jing, so even if she has some thoughts in her heart, she will suppress it at the end.

Seeing such a big reaction from the Li family. Li Jing was a little wronged. He really hasn't touched this king. I only saw each other once in total. But everyone thinks so. This Wang Yijun is already his woman.

Seeing this, Li Liang hurriedly said: "It's better for us to say to Duli Town on the surface that the young city lord is going to marry Wang Haojun and temporarily calm their hearts." Privately, we don't have to take it seriously, how about it? ”

Mrs. Gao answered behind the screen, and the matter was settled.

Li Jing continued: "If you want to fight Duli Town, I think you must first settle Beisha City to prevent future troubles. Last time, Brother Zhongmou suffered a big loss. This Zhang Dewei promised to retreat from the army on the surface, but in fact he hid it, and as soon as Brother Zhongmou sent out his troops, he immediately came back and almost broke Qingni City. We have to guard against this experience. However, this Zhang Dewei is actually just a brave, greedy and shameless person, and he is not worried. ”

"That's true." Li Liang nodded, "It's very easy to deal with this person. This time, Zhang Dewei was defeated and returned, and Chigu's brother Zhang Dewu and his 5,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out. He himself was defeated and fled under the internal response of General Gao Rong. He brought a total of 30,000 soldiers and horses this time, and several times before and after, more than 8,000 people have been killed, more than 6,000 prisoners, Zhang Dewei has no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left, and some of them are people. After all, the entire city of Beisha now has no more than 10,000 soldiers. At this time, he must be panicked, as long as he spreads rumors that we are about to lead an army against him, he will definitely retreat on the Great Black Mountain, and he will definitely not dare to come out again. ”

"The Stone Man Pillar Port City in the east of Beisha City and the Stone City in the southwest of Beisha City, these two forces I remember are both powerful forces with more than 10,000 troops, and they have always had a bad relationship with Beisha City, and they were often plundered by the cavalry of Beisha City in the past. I think I can send someone to bring some gifts, and ask them to cooperate, and make a appearance of a joint attack on Beisha City, so as to completely scare them. Li Jing added a sentence at the end.

Li Liang spread rumors that Shamen Town and Qingni City were preparing to take revenge for Beisha City's attack on Qingni City last time. An army of 20,000 soldiers and horses has been mobilized, and it has been agreed that the two families of Shirenzhu Port City and Shicheng will each send 5,000 troops to prepare to encircle Beisha City. As soon as this news reached Zhang Dewei's ears, he was frightened. In this attack, the real thing is that the old capital has been lost. He regretted it now, if he broke through the outer city of Qingni City, he would have made a lot of money if he ransacked it. But he was too greedy and wanted to swallow Qingnicheng in one bite, but in the end, he even lost all his capital.

At present, only 8,000 soldiers and horses and a few thousand men have fled back to Beisha City. Coupled with the soldiers and horses left at home, they are no more than 10,000 people, if Li Jing's coalition forces come to attack, how can he resist? Although Beisha City was built on a mountain city on the Great Black Mountain, and its defense was excellent, when he thought of the kind of flying fire used by the Shamen Town army in Qingni City that day, he was afraid for a while. Considering the rebellion and betrayal of the Yaka Thorn Division, the Bu'an Department of Baekje, and the Gorong Department of the Goguryeo tribe that day, he was shocked. There are quite a few of these Tibetan tribes in his Beisha City, and even in his army, there are many of them Hu people.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, Zhang Dewei simply gritted his teeth, summoned his confidants to the barracks, and suddenly attacked his own barracks that night, killing all the Hu soldiers and horses in the Beisha army, and leaving no one behind, even those Hu people in the city were all arrested and beaten as slaves. Time. Li Jing's coalition army had not yet attacked, but Beisha City was the first to cause rebellion, bloodied the whole city, thousands of people died, and tens of thousands of Hu people were chained and imprisoned in slave camps. While cleaning the whole city, Zhang Dewei forcibly recruited the young and strong men in the city to enlist in the army, and pulled up a team of 20,000 soldiers and horses, but although the number was restored, these troops, which were mostly recruits, were far from being comparable at the beginning. Holding this abundant number of soldiers and horses, Zhang Dewei closed the city, the whole city was under martial law, and waited nervously and worriedly for the arrival of the coalition army.

On the other hand, the envoy sent by Li Jing to Duli Town had a smooth meeting with the representatives of Duli Town. In the end, the decision to exchange prisoners was reached, and Duli Town did not have much objection to Li Jing's decision to marry Wang Haojun to Li Lingfu's son, and finally agreed.

Subsequently, the two sides exchanged prisoners in the middle of Qingni City and Duli Town. Li Jing used nearly 3,000 prisoners, as well as Wang Gai and Pei You, two high-ranking generals, in exchange for the bones of Li Lingfu and tens of thousands of soldiers. There were also more than 5,000 prisoners, including more than 300 in the Nutao Battalion, about 3,000 in other units of the coalition army, and more than 1,000 on the side of Qingnicheng.

The day after the captured soldiers were replaced, Li Jing immediately made preparations all the time, ostensibly claiming to attack the army of Beisha City. Directly to the town of Tuli.

This time. Li Jing directly mobilized the six battalions of Blue Wolf, Iron Wall, Iron Spear, Flying Eagle, Angry Wave, Zhenhai, as well as the cavalry and silver spear guards directly under him. A total of 6,600 people, plus those old pirates in the Angry Waves Camp, and those who have just been replaced, Shamen Town has dispatched a total of 8,000 men, 6,600 soldiers, and 1,400 old pirates. On the Qingnipu side, this time Qingnipu handed over Qingni City to Mrs. Gao and Li Meng, and the three brothers of the Li family all went into battle. Insisting on participating in this battle of revenge, they brought half of the 400 people of the Crane Control Army, and 600 infantry for a total of 1,000 people, and the remaining more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, as well as more than 1,000 soldiers who had just been replaced, all stayed in Qingni City.

In addition to these people, Gao Rong, who defected in the last battle of Qingnicheng, and 3,000 soldiers from the three divisions of Thorn Che and Fu'an also joined the battle. In addition to these three soldiers, Gao Rong and the others even recruited another 2,000 Tibetan troops composed of several small tribes during this time, so that the Tibetan army reached 5,000 people. They fought this battle. Li Jing pays according to the capitation, and the employment fee of each ten times. In addition, food and drink are all-inclusive, and even the lost ordnance is promised to be reimbursed afterwards. Moreover, the beheading of the enemy soldiers was cut off, and the reward was consistent for each of them, and the same was for the prisoners. Although the reward was much less than that of at least five times for each head of Shamen Town, these Hu people of various tribes in Liaodong were very happy. has always had a lot of money, not to mention that Li Jing also promised them that half of the money and materials looted would be handed over to Li Jing, and half could be kept by themselves.

A small clan leader who had just arrived with only 200 cavalry smiled at Gao Rong and said, "That little white-faced Tang general is really a donkey ball fool, and he is stupid and has a lot of money, so he offered such a generous reward." ”

A Shamen town army heard it and reported it to Li Jing. Li Jing chuckled: "This group of soldiers and Hu talents are stupid hats, an adult strong soldier can be hired to help me for only such a small amount of money, as many as they have, I am willing to ask for as much as I want." ”

Money is gone, and you can make it again, but an elite veteran is not something that can be trained in a short period of time.

The various departments combined, 14,000 soldiers and horses, and Li Juren dispatched a full 6,000 young men and women to send spears, horizontal swords, bows and arrows.

20,000 horses and horses have arrived at the city of Duli Town in half a day. The scout urgently reported to the city lord Wang Pu, who was reprimanding Wang Gai in the hall for being captured by the whole army, and almost jumped to his feet. "How is this possible, didn't Li Jing's envoy say that our two families exchanged prisoners with each other and each of them quit the war and truce? Then Li Juren, don't you still want to marry Miaojun, how can they say that they will fight it? ”

Wang Gai sat on one end and pouted: "I think that Li Jing is more difficult than Li Lingfu, and you dare to believe his words." He had just defeated Zhang Dewei first, and then defeated me, and now he was in a sharp position, how could he easily stop the army under such circumstances. But don't worry, Li Jing's subordinates are indeed capable of fighting, but at the moment he is attacking and defending. As long as we hold the head of the city and have the Flying Fire to help, what can he do to me? ”

Wang Pu said with a worried face: "That flying fire is very powerful, but it requires a huge amount of weight every time. The last time I dealt with Li Lingfu, I had already used up all the things I had made, and now there is no stock, even if I rush to make it, there will be no ten days and a half months. Besides, I heard that Li Jing not only has divine fire, but also used flying fire against Beisha City this time, and they seem to be even more powerful in using canned cloth bags, each of which is only twenty or thirty catties, but it is even more powerful than our forty or fifty catties. If Li Jing uses this thing to attack the city, I am afraid that the soldiers will be timid and difficult to defend. ”

The alarm bell of Duli Town rang for a long time, and the representatives rushed in. Thirty-six resolution representatives, seventy-two senatorial representatives, and one hundred and eight wealthy families are the number one force in southern Liaoning, but at the moment people are a little panicked. Undoubtedly, although Qingnipu, the great enemy of the past hundred years, has just been completely disabled, the tiger will go to the wolf. Li Lingfu died, but Li Jing attracted it again.

Between Duli Town and Shamen Town, two battles were fought, and in the first battle, the combined fleet was completely annihilated, and more than 10,000 people were lost. In the second battle, 3,000 cavalry went to reinforce Beisha City, but they were only used by the same number of soldiers and horses, and they were captured again in an ambush. Shamen Town is simply the nemesis of Duli Town, and it is invincible in every battle.

In particular, there is a flying fire in Duli Town, but people have already had a divine fire, and now they also have a flying fire, and I have even heard that it is more powerful than them.

At present, Li Jing led 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack, which made the representatives of the various families, who had always been high and pretentious, restless.

"Let's make peace!" The representative of the Zheng family was the first to speak. "I said a long time ago not to deliberately pick on Li Lingfu, but some people don't listen. What is the result, we worked desperately and took out countless bounties to buy off a few internal responses of the Tibetan Ministry, but although Li Lingfu was killed after the last time, we ourselves suffered countless casualties. Now that the good ones have attracted Li Jing again, it was not easy to spend a large price of three million to calm Li Jing and make him agree to the peace. Now, three million have been thrown into the sea. ”

Immediately, some people chimed in, blaming the city lord Wang Pu, saying that if it weren't for him, it wouldn't be like this now. These people have forgotten how when Li Jing annihilated Li Lingfu and the allied forces, they followed Wang Pu's ass and praised him for his wisdom and bravery.

Wang Pu looked at those people coldly, and said with a chuckle: "Then what do you say to do now, is it possible that you want to give the Feng family to Li Jing the same as last time, and you want to give me to Li Jing to calm your anger?" ”

Those deputies laughed and blamed for blame, but Wang Pu was able to kill Li Lingfu and defeat 40,000 coalition troops last time, and he was still very capable of fighting in their minds. There are not many such people in Duli Town, and they must not be given to Li Jing.

"It's better to pay money, I think Li Jing is a money-loving person. Last time he was given three million, there was an immediate truce. It's better for everyone to give some more blood and take the money to send him away. Another representative said.

"Pay? How much are you prepared to give, a million or two million? Li Jing asked for three million last time, and this time he came, his appetite must be greater, and this time he fed him with money, it is hard to guarantee that he will not find another opportunity to come and ask for more next time, when will it be the end? What's more, there isn't much money in the town right now. ”

"It's really not good, so let's get together. We have one hundred and eight representatives, and if one of them produces 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, there will be two or three million. It's better not to fight, or not to fight. Don't forget, the city lord, we are now facing Li Jing instead of Li Lingfu. And the other side has 20,000 soldiers and horses, how many soldiers do we have now? If we get rid of the disgraceful cavalry who have just been exchanged for prisoners, we will not have enough ten thousand. ”

Seeing that everyone was afraid and did not dare to fight, Wang Pu was extremely angry in his heart, but it was difficult to disobey the will of the people, and he, the city lord, had no choice. In the end, he had no choice but to send a representative out of the city to negotiate with Li Jing.

In the face of the envoy, Li Jing only said one sentence: "Send five million yuan of money and grain, and hand over the Duli Zhenfeng clan and Wang Pu clan to be disposed of by us, and I will immediately withdraw from the army." If not, in a day's time, I will immediately attack the city! After saying a word, Li Jing immediately asked the guards to send the messenger out of Lu. (To be continued......)
