Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 854
"Good news! Good news!!"

"The Liao people have offered us New Year coins!!"

Hearing crazy cheers from outside the township army, Lu Junyi, Zhu Wu, Wu Yong, Shi Wengong and many other generals in the tent also laughed heartily, extremely carefree.

Lu Junyi said: "The people of Liao really care about eating but not beating. In Shandong and Yanyun, they were treated like that by their elder brother. When they saw that elder brother was in charge of the northern border, they actually wanted to come here to pick up a bargain. Now they directly signed the alliance under the city and bought peace with old coins. Are you comfortable?"

Zhu Wu said with a smile: "It's because the head coach doesn't want to destroy it. Otherwise, there will be domestic and foreign troubles in Liao, and Emperor Tianzuo is a foolish emperor who is very happy. If he really wants to destroy this powerful country at dusk and Xishan, what's the difficulty? Being picked up by the Jurchen, we won't take it!"

Wu Yong shook his feather fan and said: "To make an alliance and negotiate a peace, the head teacher will come forward, but it is our duty to compete with this group of Western troops. Since Zhang Xian, the Taoist Chongtong, was defeated and disappeared, many people have returned to Bianliang and Luoyang. , the land of the Central Plains can no longer be trampled by Wudao Zhao and Song Dynasty, let's take over Henan in one go!"

Everyone cheered up: "Not bad!"

Now the township army has all Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road, Jingdong East Road, and Jingdong East Road. Although this is the base of the township army, due to the lack of civil servants, it will take a while to completely digest the land of Hebei and Shandong. of.

Therefore, according to the initial discussion, the army should be rested and consolidated at this time.

However, the war and turmoil in the south was beyond expectations, and the central court’s persecution of the Western Army was a great gift, so that the people lined up to welcome them along the way, and the yamen gathered crowds to surrender. The real resistance encountered did not exceed five times.

Since he didn't participate in the war, he couldn't talk about taking a rest, and he wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue Henan and achieve the king's career!

"What stands in our way at the moment is the Western Army guarding Bianliang City!"

Lu Junyi's expression became serious: "In the confrontation at Zhending Mansion, there were only a few hundred Western troops, and the Special Attack Battalion easily removed them, but now there are [-] Western troops stationed in Bianliang..."

Shi Wengong sneered and said: "This strong army in the field does not dare to face our township army, but only dares to defend in the city, which proves their decline!"

Lu Junyi said: "That's what I said, but it is precisely because they have self-knowledge that they are no match for our township army outside, and then they turn to defend the city. This is the trouble!"

"Bianliang City is the former capital of Zhao and Song Dynasties after all. There are many armaments in the city, and sufficient food and grass reserves. If this battle is attacked by force, it will be a tough battle. I am afraid that there will be heavy casualties, and it will take a long time!"

As the commander, he looked at Zhu Wu and Wu Yong: "What is the plan of the two counselors, so that they can quickly break through the city and destroy this western army?"

Zhu Wu frowned slightly: "Is Commander Lu's purpose to destroy the Western Army?"

Lu Junyi was stunned, and then realized: "If you can persuade them to surrender, that would be great. My brother also said that the war between the Han people can be avoided if it can be avoided. We must gather forces to fight against foreigners, but the Western Army is different after all. I'm afraid I won't surrender..."

Shi Qian couldn't help but said: "Yes, this army is really tenacious. It tried to mutiny several times, but was finally suppressed by the generals. Just for this ability alone, it is indeed worthy of being the most powerful in Zhao Song, with strict military discipline. "

Wu Yong could see it clearly: "Strict military discipline is only one aspect, and another key reason is that Zhe Keshi and Zhong Shidao are being tried in Dali Temple, but they have not been sentenced for a long time. They are not said to be guilty or innocent. crime."

"These two old generals are actually the hostages of the imperial court. If the Western Army really mutiny, Zhe Keshi and Zhong Shidao will be dead. This is what the Western Army is afraid of..."

The generals were extremely disdainful: "Using a prestigious veteran general to threaten the lieutenant soldiers is really an eye-opener! They don't think about it. If they do this, who will be willing to serve the court in the future?"

Zhu Wu calmly analyzed: "The court of Zhao and Song Dynasty has now fallen into the vicious circle mentioned by the head coach. In fact, they also know that under such behavior, the morale of the people and the army will only become more and more corrupt. However, due to the previous evil actions, there is nothing they can do. , must drink poison to quench thirst.”

Suo Chao sneered: "It's self-inflicted. Now the south is in constant war. That Jinghu Fangla even called himself Shenggong and named himself 'Yongle'. He set up officials and generals and established a political power. If you are not fully prepared, maybe this Fang La broke into Jinling and killed the dog emperor!"

Wu Yong's eyes moved slightly, thinking it was good.

Just like Yang Guang's tossing the country and the country, causing anger and resentment, Yu Wenhuaji, who directly killed the king, also completely lost the hearts of the people. This kind of matter of ending the previous dynasty's state is sensitive after all. If Fang La works, why not why...

Of course, it's inconvenient to say this clearly, especially Fang La's threat should not be underestimated, and you can't let a tiger make trouble because of this.

Ding Run spoke up: "This Fang La regards Ming Zunjiao as the state religion, and he is our enemy. The head teacher has something to say, the cult will confuse the people, and once it becomes big, there will be endless troubles!"

The village lord led the Liangshan hero to join the generals, and at the same time he had already fixed his position. As a high-ranking commander, thinking of the grievances and grievances he had with Ming Zunjiao before, he couldn't tolerate Fang La.

The rest of Sui'an's students also nodded one after another: "Mingzun Sect and Maitreya Sect are both evil cults and prostitutes, and now they are causing trouble, and we are about to sweep them away as much as possible!"

Among them, Luan Tingyu suddenly said: "However, the behavior of Fang La's establishment has its merits. This person dared to do so when he occupied Jinghu Lake. It will be very inconvenient for us to manage the affairs of Hebei and Shandong in the name of the township army. It's..."

As soon as these words came out, all the generals in the hall exchanged eyes, and they all saw the excitement in each other.

First Tian Hu called himself King Jin, and now Fang La called himself Sheng Gong, and even set the year name directly in one step, everyone naturally had ideas.

After all, compared with these two groups of bandits, they already have the demeanor of a king's teacher, but after taking over the Four Routes, their duties are more chaotic. It is really time to clarify the authority through the establishment.

The Yanliao-Wuzhou alliance also sent a clear signal, otherwise Luan Tingyu would not have dared to take the initiative based on Li Yan's previous attitude towards Xiangrui.

Seeing that the atmosphere became a little weird, Lu Junyi coughed lightly: "When we take down Bianliang, we will just ask my brother for orders. Now we must concentrate on conquering this city. If there are any slack, we will deal with it by military law!"

All the generals accepted the order in awe: "Yes!"

Zhu Wu took over the initial topic and said: "Correct the gap between the enemy and us. The enemy's advantage is that the city is high and the pool is deep, and it has the geographical advantage of the capital's defense. To win Bianliang, we have to make use of our strengths and avoid weaknesses!"

Wu Yong said leisurely: "It's better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone!"

The generals were stunned at first, then laughed and said: "It's simple, just send the good news of the Liao Kingdom's tribute to the city, so that the original people in the capital will be happy together!"

……

"The township army is victorious!! Long live Lin Yiyong!!"

"Hush! Silence! Silence! Those bandits are here..."

"Go! Go!"

In Bianliang City, Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo were sitting on horseback, followed by a group of personal guards, who were personally patrolling the streets, when they heard a burst of cheers coming from ahead, and then stopped abruptly, leaving only the backs of hurriedly leaving.

The faces of the patrolling sergeants suddenly became ugly, even if they encountered similar situations more than once in the past two days.

People in Bianjing always like to spread news. In the past, something happened in the palace in the morning, and it spread all over the streets in the afternoon, and then they started to gamble. Now that Bianjing has become Bianliang, this habit has not changed.

So once the news from the outside comes in, it spreads quickly, and then the whole city discusses it.

But no matter how intense the discussion was before, once the Western Army approached, the expressions of the common people immediately changed.

Most of them left in a hurry, as if avoiding the plague, and a few even looked at them with contempt and hatred, and those eyes hurt people.

The object of cheering is the township army, because of the alliance between Yan, Liao and Wuzhou.

The object of contempt and hatred is Song Jun, because of the alliance of Song Liao Baoyou.

Look at others, then look at you, isn't it embarrassing?

Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo became a little numb, but the guards couldn't take it anymore: "General, should we arrest some rioters?"

Guan Sheng immediately changed his face when he heard the words: "Shut up! Who are the disorderly people? Do you still think that the people's hearts are not disordered enough? If you dare to speak such nonsense again, this general will arrest you first!"

The personal guard stepped back: "Yes!"

Hu Yanzhuo sighed: "Brother Guan, they are also loyal..."

Thinking of these loyal personal guards, Guan Sheng heaved a long sigh: "Thinking that I, Guan, is also a hero, but I have fallen to the point of venting my anger on my brother, ashamed! Ashamed!"

Hu Yanzhuo also felt embarrassed in his heart, and the scene of two groups of generals standing clearly in the Western Army camp still appeared in his mind.

On the one side, he and Guan Sheng were the leaders, and the generals arranged by the imperial court center, such as Shan Tinggui, Wei Dingguo, Hao Siwen, Xuan Zan, Han Tao, Peng Qi and others;
On the other side are Liu Fa, Liu Zhongwu and other generals who have grown up in the Western Army;

They are still facing each other so far, and there is no possibility of unity.

How is it possible to unite?Think about it, the leader of the township army, the head coach who is far away on the border of Yanyun, can prepare such a generous morale gift for his subordinates, but the official family who is also in Jinling only knows how to hand out gold medals, and twelve block.

One south and one north, the difference between heaven and earth.

What else could Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo do?They are so helpless!
The Western Army is well aware of this, and the real blame cannot be blamed on them, but just as Guan Sheng scolded his personal guards angrily, people always find a place to vent their anger, and it can only be said that these generals who were arranged by the central government are unlucky...

Seeing that working together is impossible in a lifetime, the two sides simply parted ways. Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo led [-] soldiers to guard Bianliang and stop the township army.

This was also agreed by Jinling. After realizing that they really couldn't take over the Western Army, and that Lin Chong, who dominated the north, was more terrifying than Jinghu Fangla, the imperial court had no choice but to hold their noses and let them come here, and ordered them to come here. Bianliang must be guarded, and the city must not be occupied by thieves.

"The hearts of the people are unavailable, and the morale of the army is also weak. How long can we defend Bianliang?"

"Don't think too much, serve the country with death!"

Guan Sheng and Hu Yanzhuo looked at each other for the last time, seeing the determination in each other's eyes, and rode away slowly.

And not long after they left, a head poked out from the entrance of a ditch not far away, it was Shi Qian.

The Chief Detective Secret, who is also quite high in the township army now, came out of the hole in disgrace, but was full of nostalgia: "I was caught by the thief in the Wuyou Cave back then, and I almost fell into the frying pan. I was rescued by my elder brother... I never thought I would get into Bianliang through Wuyou Cave again!"

Ding Run's eye-catching big head popped out from the side: "I killed Wu Juhou's family at the time, and I also entered the cave to avoid it. My junior brother Gongsun Zhao was instructed by a senior and planned to turn Wuyou Cave into a place for transporting troops. One day, he bypassed the towering city wall outside and went straight to the capital...but he didn't expect that when the Liao army went south, the dog emperor ran away, and he went north to find the chief coach, and this place has not yet been completed!"

"That's it. This passage proves to be feasible. The special attack battalion can be sent in, and the people of the whole city can also be mobilized, so that these Western troops know what the people want!!"

The two looked at each other with smiles on their faces: "If Zhao Song doesn't want such a good capital, then we won't be polite!"
