Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 124 Yang Jin Goes South
Xie Linong looked at Baofeng County, saw that there were few people in it, and many shops were burned, and his teeth itched with hatred.When he got here by himself, Yang Tiansong had already left with his army and headed for Ye County.

After thinking for a while, Xie Linong said: "We won't enter the county seat anymore. We camped outside the city, rested randomly overnight, and went to Ye County tomorrow! Yang Tiansong murdered and set fires, and did a lot of evil, we must not let him go!"

The people below made promises and arranged for people to start camping.

Xie Linong sent someone into the city, called out the officials who were still there, and asked them about the loss of Baofeng.

After passing Baofeng, many people who were dissatisfied with Wang Xiaolie joined Yang Tiansong's team.Now Yang Tiansong has nearly 200 people under him, which is double the number when he rebelled in Ruzhou.

With the current situation, Xie Linong had a terrible headache.If it is a large army, if it does not break through Ye County, of course it cannot go south.But Yang Tiansong is different. He is a bandit now, and there are only one or two hundred people, and he can pass by at night by cutting the path.After passing through Ye County, Wang Xiao is no longer in charge, what should I do?
At this time, Wang Xiaolie was arranging for someone to transport the seized Yang Jin materials back to Ruzhou.In this battle, he made a lot of money.Yang Jin brought out more than half of Zhengzhou's material population, which made it easier for Wang Xiaolie.

While Wang Xiaolie was carefully checking the list of supplies in the commander's tent, a soldier came in, crossed his hands and said, "Zhizhou, I have found out the news about Yang Jin! After entering the mountains, this thief walked along the mountain path to Lu Shan County is gone!"

Hearing this, Wang Xiaolie couldn't help frowning.Asked: "It's not unusual to have a small road to Lushan County. But when he arrives in Lushan County, he can break through the county seat? As long as he stops for two or three days, he will be overtaken by my army. Then there is still a way to survive?"

The soldier said: "I heard from the local people that there is a way to bypass the county seat and go straight down to Lushan Pass. The pass of Lushan Pass is Sanya Village. In the past, the imperial court stationed troops and officials there. When the Jin soldiers came south, everything was abandoned. Guards!"

It didn't take long for Wang Xiaolie to occupy Ruzhou, so he didn't know the local geography very well.Hearing what the soldiers said, he knew it was not good.I always thought that as long as I controlled Lushan County, I would seal Lushan Pass.If not, it will be very troublesome.

After thinking for a while, let the soldiers go down, Wang Xiaolie ordered his generals to be called.

Everyone entered the handsome tent, sang promises, and took their seats.

Wang Xiaolie said: "I just got the news that Yang Jin went straight to the Sanya Village at the Lushan Pass from the mountain road. We only have more than 100 people in Lushan County, and there is no one stationed in the Sanya Village. It seems that we can't stop it." Yang Jin. After passing Lushan Pass, Yang Jin entered Dengzhou."

Shao Ling hurriedly asked: "Could it be that Yang Jin was allowed to run away like this?"

Wang Xiaolie shook his head and didn't speak, obviously he couldn't make up his mind.After a while, he said: "Tan Yan, the magistrate of Dengzhou, was originally a small official. After the Jin soldiers broke Dengzhou, the officials fled, and he came out to gather manpower and was appointed as magistrate by the court. I heard that he didn't have many troops. I'm afraid they won't be able to resist Yang Jin. Although he was defeated by us, Yang Jin recruited and dispersed, and now there are nearly a thousand people."

After hearing this, several generals glanced at each other.Shao Ling whispered: "What Zhizhou means is that we chase after him?"

Wang Xiaolie sighed: "I am the magistrate of Ruzhou. I don't know if there will be gossip after I chased Dengzhou. Besides, it was not only us who fought against Yang Jin, but also the Zhai family army. We chased Dengzhou, and they What do you think?"

Niu Gao said: "Facing the thieves, don't worry about these things. Now that we have also arrived in Henan Mansion, so what?"

"It makes sense." Wang Xiaolie thought for a while, "It's just that if we don't report to Dengzhou Zhizhou, it's not good for us to cross the border directly. But if we send someone to report, the messenger will go back and forth for many days. Who knows where Yang Jin will be at that time?" ?”

After hearing this, the generals already understood that Wang Xiaolie wanted to chase Dengzhou.It's just that there are many restrictions, and it can't be decided at the moment.

After bowing his head and thinking for a while, Shao Ling said: "Zhizhou, now is not as peaceful as it was, and we can't follow the rules. Yang Jin has thousands of people under his command. According to what he did in Zhengzhou, when he arrives in Dengzhou, he doesn't know how many people there are. Tan Yan's troops are not many, how can we resist? We'd better follow Yang Jin and keep Dengzhou."

Wang Xiaolie nodded, frowned, and did not speak.

Zhang Jun is still in Dengzhou, of course Wang Xiaolie knows Dengzhou's strength.If Yang Jin brought only a thousand people, it would not be easy to attack Dengzhou.But this guy is no ordinary person.According to his deeds in Zhengzhou, it is not uncommon for him to go to a place where food is robbed, and strong men stab their faces into the army. When they reach Dengzhou city, it is not uncommon for them to grow to tens of thousands of people.At that time, Deng Zhou couldn't stop him.

Wherever they went, they robbed all supplies and forced all the strong men into the army.This is easy to say, but difficult to do. Not every robber has this ability.One needs to be ruthless, one needs to be tough, one needs to be charismatic, but being cruel is not enough.In troubled times, there are robbers everywhere.But why some robbers can snowball and grow rapidly, while others can't, has a lot to do with the bandit leader.

Of course, there are very few characters who develop in this way and can achieve great things in the end.Most of the final successful characters did not develop fast in the early stage, but their strength is solid and the foundation is solid.

In troubled times, everyone has their role.Just like on the stage, every one of them is indispensable.The Jin army's offensive was fierce, and Zhao Gou was unable to form an effective rule for a long time, so these characters in the troubled times emerged.

Wang Xiaolie could tell that Yang Jin was one.People like him will emerge in large numbers in the next few years.They are the protagonists of this era, stirring up the world.It's just that they turned up and down, and most of them became the military exploits of the successful ones, and they will not be recorded in history.At this time, Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and others were not developing rapidly and inconspicuously.But when they matured, most of these temporary figures became the stepping stones for their development and growth.

Do you want to chase Yang Jin?Definitely want to chase.Wang Xiaolie was hesitant about how to use Yang Jin as much as possible.

Send Zhang Jun to Dengzhou, Wang Xiaolie intends to go there.Only one Ruzhou is not enough to gain a foothold in this troubled world.The places where there are kings and tyrants are the closest to Dengzhou and Xiangyang.

The outcome Wang Xiaolie most hoped for was that Yang Jin would go south to Dengzhou and drive Tan Yan away.Chase Yang Jin by himself, and then drive or kill Yang Jin, thus occupying Dengzhou.Occupying Dengzhou, plus his own Ruzhou, also occupied Tangzhou in the middle.With the three states in hand, there is capital.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Xiaolie said: "It was previously agreed with Taiwei Zhai that if Yang Jin goes to Lushan Pass, we will chase after him. I will invite Taiwei Zhai to come over and discuss this matter. No matter what, we must chase Yang Jin." , we can’t let him cause another disaster!”

The generals said yes.It can be seen from Wang Xiaolie's expression that this matter will never be so simple.
