Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Chapter 512 Arrival
"After staying, the Fenglingdu defenders don't want to come back." Wang Yin hurried in and reported.

His face was a little tired, and even more anxious. It was obvious that this trip to rescue the soldiers was futile.

"They surrendered Shao thief?" Wang Ke said angrily.

"General Chen said bluntly, please let Wang Yao stay as the queen." Wang Yin glanced at Wang Ke's face first, and then said cautiously: "If Shao's bandits come, Fenglingdu will fight to the death with all their strength. They don't surrender to outsiders. Only descendants of the Wang family."

"Fart!" Wang Ke suddenly stood up and knocked over the teapot.

His eyes were flickering, and he was clearly struggling in his heart.

"Madam, please go and make me another pot of tea." Wang Ke said suddenly.

"Husband, don't get angry and hurt your body." Li Shi sighed and left the room.

Wang Ke paced irritably, then suddenly walked in front of Wang Yin, and said, "You and I have both been prosperous and we have been both prosperous and hurt. If Wang Yao comes, he will definitely not let you go."

After hesitating for a while, he asked in a low voice: "If you kill Li Keyong's daughter and surrender to Shao Shude, is there still a chance to save things?"

Wang Yin was startled, and immediately persuaded: "After staying, the matter has come to this point, I'm afraid it will be useless."

Wang Yin is not a fool.If Wang Ke wants to kill his wife, he will only ask them to do it. At that time, Li Keyong will be furious. In order to calm his anger, Wang Yao and Shao Shude will definitely send them to Jinyang, even if they want to die quickly up.

"That's right." Wang Ke slumped back on the bed, and said with a choked voice, "Ms. Wang has always treated the sergeants kindly. I don't want to think about myself at this moment."

Wang Yin was speechless.Aren't the sergeants very conscientious, they still face Wang, but it's just replaced by Wang Yao.

But this, alas!Wang Yao probably wanted him to die, what should I do?
Up to now, perhaps only Li Keyong and Zhu Quanzhong can vote, and Wang Yin is already thinking about how to get out of the city.

"After staying, when we entered the city just now, the streets were full of warriors, and morale was low. Now maybe we should give more rewards to boost morale. In this way, everyone feels the virtue of staying behind, and maybe they are willing to fight to the death." Wang Yin said: "Pujin There are still thousands of garrison soldiers in the three cities, close at hand, why not call them after staying? I am not talented, I would like to make another trip to stay."

Wang Ke suddenly raised his head and said, "Your Majesty said, I almost lost my plan."

The three cities of Pujinguan are the lifeblood of the river, and they are known to be towned by elite soldiers and good generals. They can be traced back to Guo Ziyi, the king of Fenyang County.Hezhong Yajun, going back up, is also the descendant of Guo Fenyang's anti-insurgency elite soldiers.

The defenders here, whether it is the dead father or the uncle, have given thousands of warnings, and they must not move.I ran back in a hurry before, but forgot about it.

"Let's go quickly! There are still more than [-] Yamen troops in the city. If thousands of Pujinguan elite soldiers come to help, there may be a turning point." Wang Ke said.

Mrs. Li took her maidservant to finish making tea and entered the house. Just when she heard the last sentence, she was a little surprised and said: "My husband, when I was in Jinyang, I heard my grandfather chatting with the generals. There is a stronghold outside the city, guarded by elite soldiers. , the rebel army will not be able to attack the city with all its strength. Pujin Guandong City and Hedong City are close at hand, which can be used as Austrian aid and a force of horns. If the rebels come to attack, it will be inconvenient to collect firewood, set up camp, and make equipment, and a large amount must be left The soldiers are guarding Dongguan City—”

"Shut up! You are just a woman, you can take care of your husband and teach your children, what kind of military strategy do you know?" Wang Ke interrupted.

Just finished speaking, I felt a little regretful, felt my tone was heavy, and subconsciously wanted to say something nice.But after thinking about it, the two thousand Jin soldiers were not in the city, and Liu Xun was probably dead too, so I was afraid of shit!
Thinking of the aggrieved appearance of being cautious and never daring to speak loudly to his wife in the past year, even honest people can't bear it.At this time, after cursing a few words, I felt refreshed.

After all, Mrs. Li was only 15 years old. After being scolded by her husband, she burst into tears and ran out with her head down.

Wang Yin was dumbfounded, subconsciously feeling something was wrong.

But it doesn't matter if you think about it.Wang Ke, this broken boat, loves to toss and toss.

After hastily leaving the palace, Wang Yin went directly to the west gate.

The atmosphere on the street is dignified.There are sergeants looting the people, but no one cares.

Warriors in twos and threes gathered together, looking dangerously at people like Wang Yin who were covered in silk.There are also bold ones pointing, obviously they know him, and they don't know what they said, and a group of people burst into laughter.

That's right, the change of power has nothing to do with these low-level warriors?On the contrary, it might be a good thing.

In times of great chaos, it would be refreshing to rush into the houses of these former high-ranking officials and dignitaries, loot their belongings, and wantonly abuse women.

After the new coach takes over, don't they have to be used?Don't you have to coax her well?

No way, all the money and silk in the treasury had to be distributed to Wufu.

Some people's positions can also be promoted.

Of course, this is only limited to Wang Yao.

Shao Shude had his own troops, so he definitely didn't need them, and that day would be miserable.No way, I still have to fight Xia thief to the death!
After Wang Yin left the city, he rode his horse straight south, heading towards Fenglingdu and Yongle County, even ignoring his family.

What troubles a man without a wife!With fame and wealth in the future, what kind of woman is not available?

……

Less than half a day after Wang Yin left, the [-]-step cavalry led by Qianhu Helianjun arrived at the foot of Hedong City.

They came from the direction of Yuxiang County in the east, acting as the vanguard of the army, followed by 5000 people from Qingtang Capital and more than [-] people from the Zhen Guo Army.

The Hezhong Army sent [-] pacers out of the city to form an array. He Lianjun fought with him, but was invincible. He retreated for more than ten li and went down to the village. The Hezhong Army did not pursue them, but only focused on defending the city.

At this time, on the northern line, Shao Shude had personally led the army to Baoding County.

The county magistrate conscripted strong men and healthy women to go to the city to guard, wanting to fight to the death.Wang Yao sent someone to shout, and finally opened the door to surrender.

Angel Pei Shu has also set off, chasing all the way, intending to join Shao Shude and Wang Yao.

Wang Yao also transferred the [-] Tutuan peasants who stayed on the north bank. The whole army of more than [-] volunteered to attack Hedong County. Shao Shude refused and ordered him to go with the army.

On May 22, Shao Shude led an army to arrive outside Hedong County and set up camp.

At this time, news was received that the Fenshuiguan town army that had been cut off had descended to the east of the river, and Kang Jun led the army to storm Huoyi.

"It's late!" Shao Shude smiled and put away a stack of letters.

Hezhong Military Academy sealed it, and secretly sent people out of the city to deliver letters, saying that the morale of the army was fluctuating, and they all wanted to change their festival envoys to invite rewards.

Feng Chong, the judge of Yingtian of the Hezhong shogunate, sent someone to tell that Wang Ke rewarded the three armies and threatened the soldiers at the same time. He said that the king of Lingwu County wanted to kill all the soldiers in Hezhong. The soldiers were skeptical and their morale recovered.

One of Wang Ke's relatives, Pei Ling who was born in Wu Pei from the south, sent his eldest son to Shao Shude's army, saying that the Wang family was kind to him and did not want to harm Wang Ke.

There are also some other miscellaneous people who are basically from the Feng family and the Pei family, or are closely related to them.

But it seems that there are still a small number of people who deliver letters to Shao Shude, and there are a lot of people who run to Wang Yao's camp.

It's also ridiculous.

Hedong County is a well-known big city and strong city. There were more than ten thousand government troops and thousands of state soldiers in the city. Wang Ke ran back with more than three thousand riders. In the past few days, he probably ran back three to five thousand, close to twenty-five thousand. Logically speaking, the defenders of Qianbuqi should defend like an iron bucket, but what is it like now?

Standing on the high platform that had just been built, Shao Shude could only see people coming in and out.The thick city wall has almost become a post road for business trips, and the hanging basket is lowered and lifted without resting for a moment.Some people even couldn't wait, and directly climbed down with ropes to the camp of Wang Yao's army.

The hearts of the people are in a state of confusion, so far!
"Marshal!" Gao Renhou hurried over and saluted directly downstairs.

The old man!Shao Shude smiled.Shouldn't you come up to salute normally?
"My legs and feet are not good, you come up and talk." Shao Shude shouted.

Gao Renhou chuckled, ran up the watchtower, saluted and said, "See you, Commander."

"I've always heard you and Li Tangbin complaining about the lack of troops, so this time I will give you more troops."

Gao Renhou was overjoyed and said: "After winning the army, the last general will go to Yuan County to bring Zhang Shensi's dog head and present it to the commander in chief."

"Soldiers descending in the river, have you seen it all? How about it?" Shao Shude asked.

"That's right!" Gao Renhou praised: "The final general randomly selected some people, and ordered them to shoot deer and straw people, and very few of them failed. Then the skill of swords and spears is tested, and they are very promising. The final general asked, They are all veterans and skilled in skills. They are just spoiled, they are all foolish and slick in fighting, and they must be severely rectified."

"When Wang Chongrong was around, these people were still able to fight. After his death, six years later, the horses were sent to Nanshan, and the swords and guns were put into storage. Let’s pick first.” Shao Shude said: “If you feel that they are invincible in the future, don’t complain again.”

"There is a general who will rectify and keep them in good order." Gao Renhou patted his chest and said, "After training is finished, let's replay the battle of Fenshui. I'm afraid the commander's Tielin army will be beaten..."

Having said that, Lao Gao finally realized how powerful he was, and wisely shut up.

Xu Hao and Ye Li Yulue glared at him together, but they didn't have the same knowledge as him.

"More than 3000 soldiers have surrendered. General Gao will first pick [-] people to join the Tianxiong Army." Shao Shude said: "Be prepared when picking people and adding them."

"I will save it at the end." Gao Renhou replied.

Surrendering troops may not necessarily be done honestly.If they were still allowed to live in the river, it might be acceptable.If they moved to other places, they might cause chaos.

Li Keyong asked Zhaoyi Town to pick up five hundred elite soldiers and send them to Jinyang, wouldn't there be chaos on the way?
I can listen to you, fight for you, and even fight out of town, but let me move?Then I will rebel.

In fact, this matter is not limited to individual vassals and towns, it is similar across the country, some are milder, and some are more serious.

Why did the towns of Yun and Yan resist Zhu Quanzhong desperately?This is the situation, and they are still fighting desperately, which caused huge casualties to the Bian army?Because Zhu Quanzhong killed surrendered soldiers.

Why did Zhu Quanzhong kill the surrendered soldiers?Because the surrendered soldiers were disobedient, they didn't want to go to Bianzhou, but only wanted to stay in their hometown and guard their own interests.

This is the vicious cycle.

Jiangbing was disobedient and killed in a rage.After the news spread, everyone fought to the death, unwilling to surrender.There were too many casualties, and when the anger came up, it was impossible to massacre the city.And a massacre of the city might still be scary in other dynasties, but in the late Tang Dynasty, it feels that the negative effect is more negative, and it can arouse the rebellious psychology of the martial artist, and fight you to the end.

Is it possible that I have to follow the old path of the Five Dynasties court?Can't stop killing all the way?Shao Shude was very helpless.

Zhu Quanzhong slaughtered Wei Bo, eight thousand yamen soldiers and their families, and killed them all in one day.

But it seemed that the effect was not good. Later, a more domineering and rebellious silver gun Xiaojie army appeared. Thieves can fight on the battlefield, but they are also disobedient.

What kind of people are there in this world of Tang Dynasty!
"Marshal, Feng Yanqing is here." Zheng Yong, the tenth personal soldier, stepped forward to report.

"I'll meet him." Shao Shude said.

After Feng Yanqing left Fengzhou, she returned to Anyi.I had probed his tone before and asked him if he was interested in being the governor of Jiangzhou.Feng Yanqing was a little moved, but after Dafeng personally wrote a letter to Shao Shude, the matter became a thing of the past.

Shao Shude decided to let Jinzhou Biejia Fengheng be the governor of Jinzhou, and at the same time let Pei Yuchang change places to be the governor of Jiangzhou.Anyway, these two places are similar, so Pei Yuchang should have no objection.

The military battle was won, and the political battles followed one after another. There are many things to do in Hezhong.A single mistake may have an impact on the future of the great cause.

Zhu Quanzhong was stubborn in his early years, and his soldiers were killed if they were not obedient.But in the end, after suffering a loss, I couldn't stand it anymore, and had to compromise, but this planted the root of disaster.

Shao Shude wanted to see if he could act both hard and soft, and figured it out slowly.

Everyone is watching!
