Chapter 82 The banquet of Pizhou is open, and the strategy of entering Zizhou is formulated

In the city of Pizhou, the army is prosperous, a big flag hangs high at the head of the city, and the word "Song" written on it is extremely eye-catching, it is the Song army led by Xia Gui. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Since the uprising of the Red Feng Army and the rebellion of Li Pu, the Song Dynasty has secretly plotted, wanting to take this opportunity to start another war and change its disadvantage in the face of the Mongols.

One was led by Meng Gong to garrison the army in Xiangyang and fought with the Mongol army led by Zhang Rou and Meng Ge for control of the Lianghu region; the other was Zhao Kui stationed in Yangzhou and fought with the Mongol army led by Shi Tianze and Kublai Khan for control of the Jianghuai generation; and the other was more than a step with Chengdu Mansion as the center, and the current Great Khan's prince Kuoduan fought for the control of the Sichuan and Shu generations.

On three fronts, hundreds of thousands of troops were gathered on both sides.

In the countryside where the chickens and dogs are crowing, in the rugged and rugged mountains with dangerous terrain, in the vast rivers where the tide is rushing and the sound of the waves is still the same, in this land of China that has been inherited to this day and will survive forever, the most fierce competition is launched.

Now, in order to change the disadvantaged state of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kui sent tens of thousands of troops led by Xia Gui to the north, intending to take this opportunity to restore the Central Plains.

It's just that today, in this Pizhou official mansion, there are dozens of big tables, and each table is full of soldiers in armor. The table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, and a jar of wine was brought by the servants who served them.

Seeing the table full of wine and food, and smelling the intoxicating aroma of wine, everyone was already hungry and their index fingers were moving.

"Soldiers, can you listen to me before you open the table?"

And when they looked at it, they saw that on the high platform that had been erected, a man had stepped upon it.

Look at this person, his face is ruddy, his face is rich, although his figure is burly, but his waist circumference is not bad, but it seems that he is chubby. Seeing this person come forward, the people in the hall immediately burst into laughter, and there were not many scruples in their mouths, so they opened their mouths and laughed.

"General Xia speaks, how dare our brothers not listen? Otherwise, we can sit here today?"

"That's right. If it weren't for General Xia's leadership, how could we capture Pizhou and achieve such feats?"

"It's also thanks to our brothers who work hard, otherwise where can we get so many rewards from the imperial court?"

“......”

For a while, the generals were all laughing.

Xia Guijing waited for everyone to be quiet before replying, "Everyone is right. This time we won, if it weren't for your efforts, otherwise how could we capture Pizhou in such a short time?" From the table next to him, he took a wine glass that had already been filled with fine wine, and he drank it all at the generals present: "This cup is the concerted efforts of Jing'er and others." We have the success we have today. ”

"Good!"

All the generals shouted in unison, and they also raised the wine glass in their hands and saluted: "General Xia is so respectful, how dare we disobey? "Words are the same, and they are all drunk in one go.

"But those soldiers who sacrificed did not enjoy these fine wines again. ”

Xia Gui laughed, seeing the familiar figure in front of him, but thinking of the suffering soldiers who died during the siege before, he was a little sad, and he couldn't help but show a stealing attitude, so he raised his hand and wiped a few tears next to his eyes with his sleeve, regained his strength, picked up the second glass of wine, and said solemnly: "And this glass of wine is to honor the soldiers who sacrificed." May their spirits in heaven bless us with the prosperity of our martial arts. ”

With a solemn expression, Xia Gui poured the wine glass in his hand, and let the wine in the cup pour into the loess, comforting the sacrificed heroes.

The generals in the hall were also sad for a while, as if they remembered the people who sacrificed in order to seize this city, so they poured a new cup and sacrificed to the distant heroes.

For a while, the whole hall was peaceful, as if they were afraid of disturbing the heroic soul, lest they make them miss the time and the time of reincarnation.

When everyone came back to their senses, Xia Gui took the third glass of wine.

Seeing that he turned around, he was facing the southern Lin'an land, and said in a loud voice: "As for this third cup, it is an official family who respects the imperial court and rules over all the people, if it were not for the wisdom and martial arts of the saints, how could we have today's success?"

"The grace of God, don't dare to refuse. ”

All the soldiers did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up from their seats, and they also sacrificed to the north one after another, lest they fall behind.

After three glasses of wine, Xia Gui breathed a sigh of relief, and saw that the generals seemed to have doubts, thinking that his words were a little redundant, so he explained: "Everyone, these three glasses of wine are just to remind us that we must not forget the brotherly love and the blessings of the society, and we need to know how we can do what we can do today if it were not for the benevolence of the saints?

The generals replied, "I'll know." ”

Xia Gui saw that everyone was a little serious, laughed, but jumped off the stage and directly grabbed a free seat and sat down.

He looked at the delicacies on the table, he couldn't bear it, picked up the chopsticks on the table and stuffed a piece into his mouth, only to see that everyone around him was stunned, and he complained again and again: "Eat quickly." These are all hard work of the chef, and if it is cold, it will not taste good. While speaking, he never stopped, stuffing it into his mouth piece by piece, and the whole thing looked like a pig.

The rest of the people seemed to have known that this would be the case, and they also handed out their chopsticks one after another, and stuffed the delicious food into their mouths.

During this period, some people seemed to be surprised, and asked in a low voice: "Is it okay for me to wait like this?" After all, they are now in the midst of a war, but they are eating and drinking here, and even Xia Gui does not stop them, so there is a question.

But someone replied, "What's not to be satisfied with?" With so much wine to drink and so much food to eat, what are you not satisfied with?"

"Not really. But since we have captured Pizhou, the Mongol army is afraid that it will come at any time and anywhere. What should we do then? But I don't know if the general is prepared?" The man looked at the drunken soldiers in the hall, and no one talked about the current movements of the Huaihe generation, which made him curious.

However, the man replied: "As the saying goes, there is wine today and drunk today, and tomorrow will be worried, and tomorrow will be sad." Tomorrow's business, tomorrow's talk. On the cheeks, two lumps of redness had already appeared, obviously already dizzy.

Looking at this, although the man was helpless, he could only be helpless.

With the current situation of the Song army, it is obvious that he can't listen to it.

............

Among Zizhou, compared with the hustle and bustle of Pizhou, this city that has just been occupied by the Red Phoenix Army is a little slaughtered.

Walking in Zizhou, Li Yanjian was a little anxious.

It has been more than three days since the Red Phoenix Army occupied this city, and they have not done anything except to reorganize the army and interrogate the officials and gentry in the city every day, so they have stayed in this city.

For this, he was a little anxious.

After all, his father was besieged in Jinan Mansion by Shi Tianze with a heavy army, and if he continued to drag on like this, he was afraid that his father Li Pu's life might be in danger.

There were all Red Phoenix Army soldiers around, and they were patrolling in case someone took advantage of this chaotic time to disturb the order in the city and ruin the reputation of the Red Phoenix Army.

At this time, Li Yanjian stared at every soldier, as if he wanted to imprint their faces into his eyes.

Finally, Li Yanjian saw a familiar person, so he immediately rushed over directly and asked, "Zheng Yuanlong, is it you?"

Zheng Yuanlong was a little surprised, turned his head and noticed that Li Yanjian looked anxious, so he asked, "It's me, what's wrong with you?" Since Li Yanjian came to the Chifeng Army to ask for help, Zheng Yuanlong was in charge, so the two of them were very familiar with each other.

"Hmm. I have something I want to ask Master Xiao about, I wonder if you can tell her whereabouts?" Li Yanjian hurriedly replied.

"Director Xiao?" Zheng Yuanlong immediately frowned, looked at Li Yanjian with some doubts, and asked, "What are you looking for Director Xiao for?" Xiao Yue and Xiao Xing are currently temporarily taking charge of the two important institutions of the Chifeng Army, and the things they are responsible for are very busy, so sometimes it is difficult to find the traces of the two of them if they are not familiar with them.

And with Li Yanjian's identity as an outsider, it is obvious that he cannot touch such a confidential matter.

Even Zheng Yuanlong, because he is not familiar with it, does not know a lot of things.

Li Yanjian hurriedly asked, "It's about when you will send troops." This matter is related to the life and death of his father, so he didn't dare to continue to entangle, so as not to waste time, so he told it directly.

"I don't know. Zheng Yuanlong shook his head, looking helpless.

Li Yanjian's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Then where are they?" Although he tried his best to pretend to be inquiring, there was a little annoyance in his eyes, obviously thinking that the Red Phoenix Army was dragging his feet and did not want to save his father.

"I've heard Cheng Feng say that there is going to be a meeting at this time. So they may be in the city now. If you want to ask, you might be able to ask somewhere. Zheng Yuanlong replied, and looked at Li Yanjian's appearance, and was even more vigilant in his heart.

Li Yanjian immediately turned his head and ran directly towards the mansion, obviously already very anxious.

Zheng Yuanlong saw the other party's figure in the distance, so he loosened his eyebrows, revealing a somewhat disdainful gesture: "Although I know that you have a reason, I don't want to attack Jinan Mansion rashly like this." He knew that Jinan Mansion had gathered more than 100,000 troops, and its commander was Shi Tianze, who had fought against them.

In the face of such a situation, how could they be willing to directly confront them and let themselves suffer great losses?

The reason for the confrontation before was just because the situation was pressing, if you didn't resist, you would only have to wait for death, but with the current situation of the Red Phoenix Army, you don't have to face it directly to live well, so the people in the army began to question whether the policy of attacking Jinan Mansion was correct.

............

Sure enough, as Zheng Yuanlong said, in the place where the official mansion in the city was located, the Red Fengjun and his party had already gathered and were discussing the next thing.

At this moment, Li Yanjian outside the door directly pushed the door in.

Cheng Feng looked at the map and asked Yu Wenwei for his next move: "Mr. Qiyu, we have now captured Zizhou." It's just that according to what Mr. said, what should I do next?"

For some reason, after capturing Zizhou, Yu Wenwei ordered the whole army to stop moving, but to rectify on the spot, and never went out of the city to fight.

Acting like this, the people in the army naturally surprised and wanted to ask about his purpose.

Duan Feng suddenly asked, "What about Jinan Mansion?"

"Jinan Mansion?" Yu Wenwei frowned slightly, raised his head slightly and looked at the soldiers around him, and saw that everyone was in a high mood, so he said: "At present, Jinan Mansion has gathered most of the Mongolian troops, and it is not the best policy to take it by force. In my opinion, it is better to seize Yidu first and connect this place with Dengzhou, so that Dengzhou can be kept in case the Mongol army attacks our logistics. “

"What about Li Pu, are we just leaving it alone?" Duan Feng asked again.

He has always been upright, and he knows that Li Yanjian once came to the Chifeng Army and invited the Chifeng Army to attack Jinan Mansion in order to rescue Li Pu.

"Li Pu, that guy is just a lost dog, even if we rescue him, it will only be a long life, or a dead word. Yu Wenwei said lightly, clearly showing his disdain for Li Pu.

Xiao Yue also sneered: "That's right." Before, we thought that this person would be able to join forces with us inside and outside, and together break the siege of the Mongol Kublai Khan and Meng Ge. Unexpectedly, this person is short-sighted, and even sits idly by and watches us and others being annihilated by the Mongolian army? Isn't this kind of behavior undoubtedly with the villain? Then Mongolia is a fierce enemy, but it is better not to save such an incorruptible and shameless person. “

At this moment, a person suddenly pushed the door outside the door and entered.

Acting like this, the people in the army naturally surprised and wanted to ask about his purpose.

Duan Feng suddenly asked, "What about Jinan Mansion?"

"Jinan Mansion?" Yu Wenwei frowned slightly, raised his head slightly and looked at the soldiers around him, and saw that everyone was in a high mood, so he said: "At present, Jinan Mansion has gathered most of the Mongolian troops, and it is not the best policy to take it by force. In my opinion, it is better to seize Yidu first and connect this place with Dengzhou, so that Dengzhou can be kept in case the Mongol army attacks our logistics. “
