Chapter 775

Outside the west city of Jinan, the Mongolian army camp.

After inspecting the battlefield, Zhang Hongfan rode his horse back to the camp, and heard the report from his personal guards that "Mr. Li's family is here and is waiting in the tent", so he hurried to the big tent.

The curtain was lifted, and a young man got up.

"Kuro."

"Brother Deqing." Zhang Hongfan stepped forward and said, "Have you captured Zichuan? How is it? Is the family safe?"

"Zichuan has been broken, and my family members have been rescued." Li Heng replied with a smile, "Zichuan has been fixed, and reinforcements come, only a few hundred people, others look down on them, and want to set up camp here in Jiulang."

He was 26 years old, with a handsome face and noble demeanor, wearing a Mongolian military uniform, he was considered the most elegant appearance among Mongolian generals.

Li Heng is a descendant of the Xixia royal family.

Although it is said that Xixia destroyed the country the worst, the royal family was slaughtered, all the palaces were destroyed, and the royal tomb was dug three feet...but there is also a fish that slipped through the net.

As early as when Xia Shenzong was in power, Xixia was being plundered by Mongolia, and at the same time, it was still attached to Mongolia and went to help Mongolia attack the Kingdom of Jin aggressively.

When Xia Shenzong ordered Prince Li Deren to lead the troops to attack the Kingdom of Jin, Li Deren insisted on joining the Jin and refused to lead the troops. Xia Shenzong was furious and abolished Li Deren's position as prince in one fell swoop and imprisoned him in Lingzhou.

Later, when the Mongolian army broke through Lingzhou, Li Deren died unyielding. At that time, his son Li Weizhong was only seven years old, and he also wanted to follow his father to die for the country.

The Mongol king and Temujin's younger brother Khasaer met and adopted Li Weizhong.

After the death of Hesa'er, the second son, Brother Yixiang, was the most prominent. Li Weizhong also followed Brother Yixiang to make contributions, and was named Daluhuachi of Zichuan.

Li Heng is Li Weizhong's second son. He stayed in Brother Yixiang's mansion as a hostage since he was a child, and was raised by the princess as his own son.

When he was old, he returned to Shandong. Last year, he discovered that Li Fen was planning to raise the flag to rebel, so he fled with Li Weizhong, abandoning his home, and went to Yanjing to sue.This time can be regarded as a show of loyalty and meritorious service.

Li Fen was annoyed at the behavior of the Li family and his son, so he imprisoned his whole family in Zichuan Prison. This time, Li Heng led the army to rescue his family, and then came to besiege Jinan.

At this time, Li Heng finished talking about these experiences, and Zhang Hongfan also sighed.

"Brother Deqing is loyal to state affairs, and His Majesty will treat you well."

"Don't talk about me." Li Heng waved his hand, turned the topic to the Zhang family, and said, "I heard that your sixth brother defeated Song Jun and took back Bozhou and Henan cities? Congratulations."

"That's right." Zhang Hongfan said with a smile, "Sixth brother has always been capable, and he listens to his father."

He had been rummaging through the tent for a while, but he couldn't find any wine, so he recruited his guards to fetch a jar from another place.

"Where's Jiulang? It's been several months since the siege of the city, but is there anyone who will kill the general and capture the flag?"

"No." Zhang Hongfan shook his head, spread his hands, and said, "Not a single drop of blood."

Li Heng pointed at him and scolded with a smile: "There is no wine in the tent, I don't think you have slack off."

"There is wine, there is wine, look, this is coming."

Zhang Hongfan laughed, took the wine brought by the guards, sat down, poured a glass for Li Heng, and said: "Brother Deqing was in Zichuan a while ago, I'm afraid I don't know the situation of the battle in Jinan, let me tell you .”

"Thank you."

"After Shi Shuai arrived in Jinan, he discussed with King Hebi Chizong. He believed that Li Fen had too many tricks and had excellent soldiers and horses. A surefire way to win."

Li Heng understood.

Fighting Li Fen is different from fighting Ali Buge, there is no need to lose troops or generals, so all the nobles want to preserve their strength, which is why Shi Tianze is needed to unify the command.

Only those who can guarantee the interests of the people can gain the support of the people. Shi Tianze understands this truth.

"Sure to win." Li Heng said with a smile: "Then the more important thing is...see who gets the credit?"

"Yes, it just depends on who gets the credit."

The two smiled knowingly and clinked wine glasses.

Li Heng sipped his wine, glanced outside the tent, and commented: "You guard this place well, Li Fen is likely to break through from now on, thanks to you."

"Shi Shuai treated me well. Among all the armies, only Shi Ge's line of defense is better than mine."

"Where's Scott?"

"Southwest, guard the front line of Mount Li."

Li Heng nodded and said, "It is indeed the most likely direction for Li Fen to go."

"Shi Shuai's own son."

Zhang Hongfan leaned forward a little, and said: "Only when I arrived in Jinan, did I realize that my father is really scheming... Before I went out to fight, he warned me to find a 'dangerous place' to camp."

"Haha, an old man is like a treasure." Li Heng laughed.

Where is the danger?
This is not a war, it is a banquet to share the credit, and it is an opportunity for the princes of all walks of life to pull out the children of the younger generation to make their debut.

Zhang Hongfan changed the subject, but said: "Li Fen has already started to break through in the past two months. However, he never attacked my defense line once."

"Oh? Li Fen is afraid of the name of Jiulang?"

Zhang Hongfan laughed out loud, quite insolently.

However, there was no smile in his eyes, he stopped smiling for a while, and said solemnly: "Stop making trouble. I'm not going to fall into such a simple trick of arrogant soldiers. Li Fen deceived me when I was young, and when I I don't know how to lead the army, thinking that if I don't come to attack, my soldiers will definitely be slack."

Li Heng said: "I'll suffer a big loss waiting for him to come."

Talking here, the rain poured down, and the ground in the tent was also full of rainwater.

Zhang Hongfan hurriedly braved the rain to repair the emergency.

At night, the soldiers said that the fortifications built by Shi Geyi on the river were destroyed, and all the wooden fences were washed away.

Zhang Hongfan said to himself, "Here we are," and asked Li Heng, "Brother Deqing, did you come to camp with Dalang Shijia?"

"No, I only have this little team, and it's the same everywhere. It's rare to be able to fight side by side with Jiulang. As long as Jiulang doesn't mind me sharing your credit."

"I don't think so. Then tonight we will see Shige leading the way."

It was the night when the two of them reached their feet and went to sleep. In the middle of the night, they were woken up quietly.

"Report! Li Fen attacked General Shi's camp in the south at night..."

"Let's play chess."

Li Hengdao: "Wait for the battle report and see how Shi Ge responds."

Zhang Hongfan yawned, and said casually: "Look, Shi Ge must make some anecdotes again to show that he is brave."

The third game of chess was played, and sure enough, I heard a report from Tan Ma, saying that Shi Ge personally counterattacked, and killed Li Fen under the big banner, throwing a torch as a sign, and defeated the enemy in one fell swoop.

"What do you think, Brother Deqing?"

"This story... can barely be recorded in the battle report, His Majesty Bo smiled."

"Nice show..."

~~
At dawn, Wang Luo stood on the top of Jinan City, watching the last remnant soldiers retreat into the city, his eyes full of helplessness.

Very disappointed in Li Fen.

Li Fen is his brother-in-law. No matter what Wang Luo thought of him in the past, he thought that his brother-in-law was a hero in the world, with great ambitions and unsurpassed bravery.Although I knew that Li Fen was not good at strategizing, I didn't expect him to be so bad at strategizing...

In retrospect, when Wang Luo rushed to Jinan, Shi Tianze had not yet led his army to arrive. At that time, he persuaded Li Fen to abandon Jinan, pull the defense line to the Jianghuai line, and jointly defend with Zhao Song.

This was what Han Qi'an asked Wang Luo to convey, and it was both Li Xia's and Wang Luo's.

The situation is very clear, if Wang Wentong dies, it is impossible for Li Fen to go straight to Yanjing, so he can only retreat.

It should be known that Kublai Khan still has a strong enemy like Brother Ali, as long as he relies on Jianghuai and Zhao Song, and goes north to harass him from time to time, he will still have a chance in the future.

But Li Fen refused, and the reason was very good——

"How can Zhao Song be trusted? If Zhao Song is trustworthy, my father would not have lost his life at the hands of Zhao Fang and Zhao Kui, and I will never repeat the same mistakes! I contacted Zhao Song only to get Zhao Song's support. Do I really have the intention of defecting? If there is, do you really dare to accept me as a king and minister of Zhao Song?!"

Wang Hao was also at a loss for words for a while, and he could think of what Zhao Song Chaotang said, "Aren't you afraid of repeating the mistake of Emperor Wu of Liang accepting Hou Jing?"

Li Fen not only married Wang Wentong's daughter, but also Tacha'er's younger sister. He has a good understanding of the situation in Mongolia. He knows that Taiyuan Road, Pingyang Road, and Jiuyuan City in the Hetao area are all Mongolian people who support Alibu The fiefdom of the Shuchi and Chagatai clans.

He wanted to make a big noise so that people all over the world felt that Kublai Khan was in danger, and they all responded.

When Wang Luo came to persuade him, Li Xia was still dragging Shi Tianze in Nanyang. Li Fen also had his own views on this.

"The reason why Li Xia was able to hold back Shi Tianze was actually because Shi Tianze had no intention of attacking Shandong, and took the opportunity to wait and see. At this time, with countless eyes staring at him, how could I withdraw from Jinan?! We should stick to it and wait for the crowd to rise up." response……"

"Brother-in-law, if anyone responds, it did so 30 years ago."

"How could there be such a great opportunity 30 years ago? It's different now. If Li Xia can delay Shi Tianze for a while, even Shi Tianze can turn against him."

"It can't be delayed anymore. The Mongolian army not only has a way to attack Guanlong, why should he delay it for brother-in-law?"

"Why can't we delay? I defend Jinan, and I can still support it after all kinds of hardships. He is just a team against the enemy, Shi Tianze, who wants to fight but does not fight."

"He's not like your brother-in-law, you don't care, he wants to talk about strategy..."

"Send the letter to him, only this last step is needed to expel the Mongolian captives. We must not fall short. At that time, why not share the world with him?"

"Brother-in-law!"

"Stop talking any more, what is the purpose of your persuasion?!"

"..."

Wang Luo then understood that Li Fen didn't trust him.

Because he and Wang Wentong, the father and son, did have the idea of ​​taking refuge in Kublai Khan, that is, now that Wang Wentong is dead, he is determined to resist Mongolia again, and it is normal not to be trusted.

Since he couldn't persuade Li Fen, Wang Luo had no choice but to persuade his nephew Li Nanshan to prepare for his defeat.

Li Nanshan was persuaded and made preparations...

Li Fen has a navy.

Shandong is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the Li family attaches great importance to naval warfare.As early as when Li Quan was there, he knew that Zhao Song was good at sailors, so he planned to practice water warfare.A lot of money was spent to recruit workers and craftsmen to build ships.

Li Fen repaired the old Haicheng as a naval base.

Raising the flag this time, Li Fen originally planned to attack Yanjing by land and water, but he was blocked when he reached Jinan. Now the navy is still in the old sea city.

Therefore, taking advantage of Shi Tianze's arrival with his troops, Li Nanshan sent his confidants to order him to transport his family members and supplies to Jiuhai City.When the situation changes, they plan to forcibly take Li Fen to escape from the sea...

As a result, on September [-]th, Wang Luo had given up the idea of ​​taking Li Fen away with him.

He found Li Nanshan again.

……

Li Nanshan was wounded during the breakout last night and was wrapping up his wounds. When he saw Wang Mo approaching, he sighed, "I regret not listening to uncle's words earlier, but now I can't break out."

"What does brother-in-law think?"

"Why don't uncle ask father himself?"

"He doesn't believe me." Wang Xiao grinned, both wryly and helplessly.

Li Nanshan sighed, and said: "Father still wants to kill Yidu and revive his career, but he doesn't know if Yidu has fallen."

"Hear me out."

Wang Luo leaned forward and said in a low voice: "It has been delayed for too long, and now it is impossible for soldiers and horses to break out. You and I can take advantage of the chaos and escape with our family..."

"What do you mean?" Li Nanshan was surprised, "Uncle, is this asking me to abandon my father and brother and just live in mediocrity?"

"Where there is life, there is hope……"

"No." Li Nanshan said firmly, "I will never betray my father."

Wang Luo patted his forehead and shook his head endlessly.

"Uncle, you don't have to worry too much." Li Nanshan had no choice but to persuade him, saying: "It may not be impossible to break through, father has a way."

"Really?" Wang Luo responded casually.

He knew in his heart what Li Fen's so-called method was.

It's nothing more than bullying Zhang Hongfan's youth and intending to break through Zhang Hongfan's defense.

Wang Xiao had no expectations for this.

But he still has a token from Zhang Wulang in his hand, just to see if he can take some people away in the chaos.

As for Li Fen, he must have given up...

　Today is half a day late, and one chapter is missing.There is also the addition of the alliance leader, let me see how to make it up...
