Han Shizu

Chapter 66

These Jin troops surrendered and suffered from the oppression of the Khitans, and they were already resentful. This time they were ordered to drag their families and bring their mouths to the north, and they were even more resentful.As soon as he was provoked by Wu Xingde, he blew up directly. In addition to the prestige of Wu Xingde, all of them expressed their willingness to work with him.

Soon the boatmen were agitated again, and the trackers who were forcibly recruited by the Khitans, who had never suffered the pain of the Khitans, all followed suit.As for the accompanying Jin army family members, there is no other choice except support.

"Erlang, send the order to distribute all the armor and weapons. Free up a few ships and select [-] strong men, although I will go westward. The rest will be led by you, and protect relatives, escort the armor and weapons! "In the cabin, put on a suit of military armor, Wu Xingde quickly instructed his brother Wu Xingyou.

"Brother, where are you taking us?" Wu Xingyou asked.

These people, who only know how to follow the rise of the army, basically do not think about the next move alone.It is up to Wu Xingde to make decisions about life and death.

"Heyang!" Wu Xingde said with great certainty: "In the Central Plains and Hebei, the Khitans are heavily armed, and they must not move eastward. Staying in Heyin, defending the city, is even more waiting for death. Only Heyang , is our only place to go, our only way to live!"

"Why?" Wu Xingyou was a little puzzled.

With patience, Wu Xingde explained to his younger brother: "The Hedong army has already moved south, occupying Luzhou and controlling Zezhou. As long as we go west and take the land of Heyang, we can become one with Helu and Zezhou. Now, The determination of the Khitans to withdraw from the Central Plains is determined, we only need to rely on the Hedong army, according to the land of Heyang, as soon as they retreat."

"I have long thought that this matter has a high probability of success. If the Khitan retreats, the emperor of Jinyang will sooner or later enter the Central Plains, and then we can use the land of Heyang as a means of promotion. We are in Heyin and suddenly attack , Zheng Ke took advantage of the fact that the Khitan people hadn't reacted yet, and went upstream to attack Heyang."

"The time is very tight, so I can't help but delay. Erlang, send the order!"

After listening to Wu Xingde's decision, Wu Xingyou subconsciously cupped his hands and said, "Then I will go with the big brother!"

"No!" Wu Xingde shook his head and refused, waved his hand to stop Wu Xingyou, pointed to the dozens of ships behind him and solemnly warned: "Erlang, you must know the importance of these ordnance to us, when we occupy Heyang, we can rely on it. Zhi quickly gathered a rebel army to fight against the Khitan. Brothers and their families should also be protected, they will be behind, and the soldiers will let go and fight with me!"

Seeing Wu Xingde being so solemn, Wu Xingyou nodded: "Yes. I will definitely live up to my brother's trust!"

"Very good, meritorious deeds are here!" Wu Xingde clenched his fists.

"Brother, there is still a Khitan army in Heyang. If they know our news in advance, they will take precautions and lead the army to fight. We only have more than 1000 people." Just as he was about to send an order, Wu Xingyou suddenly reminded him a little nervously .

Hearing this, Wu Xingde took a deep breath and his face was firm: "If this is the case, then it will only be put to death and then reborn. I, a thousand people who dare to die, can be an army!"

The action was very fast, the fleet was adjusted, pulled out the anchor and set sail, entered the big river, and went up the water overnight.Wu Xingde personally led [-] strong men, and the light boat took the lead, heading straight for Heyang.

They marched through the waterway overnight, and disembarked at Mengzhou, Heyang, and landed.It's a pity that Cui Tingxun, the military governor of Heyang, noticed it in advance and personally asked the army to refuse.

Wu Xingde came to the battle and encouraged the soldiers, led his army to meet him, and fought to the death outside Heyang City.Cui Tingxun was defeated, and Wu Xingde took a risk. Although the loss was not small, he was able to successfully enter Heyang City.

"Haha." At the head of the southern city of Heyang, Wu Xingde couldn't help laughing out loud as he looked at the surging river water not far away.

He was covered in embarrassment, his armor was still stained with blood, his eyes were red, but his martial arts spirit was a little morbidly excited.With both hands stroking the city wall very "lovely", after venting happily for a long time, he said disdainfully: "God helps me. If Cui Tingxun guards the city, then I will be really troublesome. It's a pity, hahaha"

Soon, Wu Xingde completely controlled Heyang City, lit up the flag, gathered soldiers of righteousness, ordered soldiers, issued government treasuries, rewarded heroes, and repaired the city's defenses.Of course, the most positive thing he did was to send his younger brother Wu Xingyou to sneak northward, after the situation was tentatively settled, to surrender to Hedong and ask for help.

Time has entered the tail end of mid-March. After half a month, Liu Chengyou was in Shangdang, and he was training the troops.More than half of the original Luzhou and Zezhou troops were incorporated into the Longqi Army by him. He had the experience of fighting together before, and they integrated quickly.Of course, Liu Chengyou carefully reported to Liu Zhiyuan about the expansion of the army.

In addition to the military, Liu Chengyou also tried to sort out the political affairs of Luzhou, focusing on "removing miscellaneous taxes".Although Liu Zhiyuan has policies, the implementation is the most important. After some investigation, it turns out that there are prefectures and counties under Luzhou, and the governance is the same as before.Under Liu Chengyou's personal attention, the policy was implemented. Of course, Liu Chengyou's methods were not tough.
On the [-]th, Liu Chengyou returned to Jinyang to give a briefing on his position, and told Liu Zhiyuan in person his judgment and opinions on the situation in the world.Show it to Liu's mother, Li, to ease her worries.By the way, he stayed in the mansion for one night, and made a lot of output on his favorite concubine Geng.
At the same time, Jinzhou was also successfully won.Murong Yanzhao led the army and approached Linfen, the state city without any haste, approaching the city with more than 1000 infantry and cavalry.The style of play he chose was the same as when Liu Chengyou won Shangdang that day, and it was also a combination of inside and outside.

In fact, in Linfen City, there are quite a few people who have different hearts from the empress Luo Conglang. After all, although the Khitan people are powerful, they are thousands of miles away, and the power of Hedong is right in front of us.Also, how can the Khitans be close to Hedong?

Luo Conglang saw that Murong Yanzhao had few troops and led the army to attack. As a result, on the battlefield, the general Yao Kechuo led his subordinates to a battlefield uprising.

After Linfen went down, the rest of the counties and towns almost passed down.There was basically no loss, and Jinzhou was recovered.With this achievement, Murong Yanzhao completely secured his position as the commander of the Fourth Army.

In the battle of Linfen, Yang Ye also quickly turned around, and he alone took the credit for beheading generals and capturing the flag.It is reported that he picked up Luo Conglang's head on the battlefield, screamed up to the sky, and looked at the thousands of troops, causing the Jinzhou army to disarm and surrender.

After returning to Shangdang, Yang Ye was directly promoted by Liu Chengyou to the newly expanded second capital of the cavalry.In less than a month, he was demoted and revived, and it was Liu Chengyou who ordered things based on military merit. Yang Ye's reputation spread throughout the Longqi Army.

When Wu Xingyou went north and passed by Shangdang, Liu Chengyou was inspecting the "Yan Camp" of Shangdang when he posted a visit.
