Chapter 513
Baodu Village is three hundred and forty miles away from Luoyang City. After Li Daliang received the order from Li Sanniang and Chen Changbing, he rushed to Luoyang City with three horses in one day and one night.

When Li Daliang arrived at Changxiamen, the south gate of Luoyang, Zhang Shunzheng was wearing a coarse cloth shirt and holding a shovel outside Luoyang City to supervise Ding Zhuang's digging of guard trenches.

When Zhang Shun heard that there was an urgent military situation, he handed the shovel in his hand to the priest Gao Yizhi beside him, and said to him, "Please trouble Father Gao!"

Originally, Zhang Shun was quite disgusted with this "foreign devil", but he didn't expect that after the renovation of Luoyang's city defense was completed, he proposed to set up trenches and guard slopes outside the city.

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig go away?Zhang Shun watched a lot of anti-Japanese dramas in his previous life, so he still has a certain understanding of the trenches.

At least he knew that bullets would not turn downwards, and even in the face of more powerful firepower including howitzers in later generations, trenches could greatly reduce the casualties of soldiers.

Therefore, Zhang Shun obeyed his kindness and immediately ordered Zhang Shenyan to recruit young men from the city to dig trenches and guard slopes outside the moat outside the city to strengthen the defense of Luoyang City.

Fortunately, there are those students from Songyang Academy on top.After careful training by Zhang Shenyan, these people became more and more proficient in their business. After counting the population of men and women in the city, they easily mobilized thousands of people to dig trenches and guard slopes.

Zhang Shun entered the Prince Fu's Mansion, saw Li Daliang who had come from afar, and quickly took his hand and asked, "Is Daliang and elder brother all right? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much."

Seeing that Zhang Shun knew him, Li Daliang quickly responded: "Everything is fine, but there is an urgent military situation here. One is good news, and the other is bad news. I wonder which one the general will listen to first?"

Zhang Shun couldn't help but his face darkened, and he ordered directly: "Tell me the reason of the matter!"

Li Daliang wanted to make a joke at first, but Zhang Shun was not happy for some reason, so he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "General Chen asked me to report, 'Xiao Yuchi' Wei Congyi General Wei has six thousand officers and soldiers from the south of the Lu family. Come here, intending to attack Luoyang."

"The leading generals are the commander-in-chief Ni Chong and Wang Pu, who are going to go down the Luo River and attack from Yongning and Yiyang!"

"Oh? Wei Congyi!" Zhang Shun couldn't help laughing while reading his name, "It's rare that he is so loyal!"

"Uh, it's hard to say whether this person is loyal or not!" Li Daliang replied a bit hesitantly, "It is said that his staff and staff have taken refuge in the officers and soldiers. I am afraid that our army's truth has already been known to the officers and soldiers!"

"What?" Zhang Shun was startled and said angrily, "Why didn't you say it earlier, let's wait here, if you delay the important event of the rebel army, wouldn't it be impossible to redeem yourself!"

"Forgive me, General!" Seeing that the joke had gone too far, Li Daliang hurriedly begged for mercy, "It's not because of Daliang's trickery, the key point is still in dispute."

It is said that since Ni Chong and Wang Pu of the Beijing Camp received the order from Chen Qiyu, the new governor of Henan, they hurriedly called on Xuanmo, the governor of Henan.

Although Xuanmo, governor of Henan, did not want to let them go, but among the local officials in the Ming Dynasty, the position of governor was more inclined to military affairs, and the position of governor was more inclined to civil affairs.

If a province does not have a governor, the governor can also take care of military affairs and civil affairs.If there is a governor, the governor will have to settle for the next best thing.

As the so-called "three fires for new officials to take office", Governor Xuan Mo of Henan did not want to encounter the bad luck of the new governor Chen Qiyu who had just been demoted.

What's more, the combat effectiveness of the Beijing camp is inferior to that of Zuo Liangyu and Li Bei's frontier army, so he nodded and said: "Since the supervisor has ordered, you two are involuntary, what's Xuan Mo's opinion?"

So, Ni Chong and Wang Pu led [-] troops under Chen Qiyu's order and rushed to Lushi County in two days.

The Beijing camp is originally a "young soldier", who can't bear hardships and suffers.After staying in the inspection department of Zhuyang Town for a long time to prepare for bandits, it has long been unbearable.

Now that he came to the county seat with great difficulty, under the hospitality of the magistrate Bai and the big households in the city, he suddenly lost the desire to attack Luoyang from the east.

I never thought that that night, just as Ni Chong and Wang Pu were about to rest, they heard that the soldiers came to report that a man had come to join the army and asked to see the general Ni Chong and Wang Pu by name.

So who are Ni Chong and Wang Pu?Could it be that ordinary people will see it when they want to see it?Fortunately, Ni Chong and Wang Pu drank some wine today, they were a little tipsy, and they became interested. If they want to see each other, who would dare to disturb their rest.

Not long after, an old man as thin as a monkey came in, bowed three times to Ni Chong and Wang Pu, and shouted loudly: "You two commanders are very polite, and I want to give some credit to you two. Is your lord interested?"

"The lucky one!" Hearing this, Ni Chong couldn't help pointing at the old man and laughed.

"Hey, it's nothing worth listening to!" Wang Pu pulled Ni Chong and smiled, "If you are lucky, you have to have the ability to be lucky."

It turned out that this Wang Pu was the one who was surrounded by Zhang Shun when he led the Beijing camp to support Deng Qi and Zuo Liangyu.He had suffered a great loss from Zhang Shun, and still had lingering fears about the title "King Shun".

Seeing that someone was willing to listen to him, the old man couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly said: "The old man's surname is linen, and his name is wrapped in cloth. He is originally a famous criminal master from Fangshan County, Shuntian Prefecture. He has a bit of relationship with the two Jingying adults." Country folks."

"Go, go! Which one is from your hometown? I am guarding the capital, not a member of the capital!" Ni Chong said disdainfully, "If you have something to say, get out!"

"There is something, there is something!" Mabu hurriedly nodded and bowed, "It's just that the former bandits harassed the capital, so they brought me here. Ma is also a person who reads sage books, how can he insult the reputation of his ancestors by being a thief?"

"I heard that the two adults came to suppress the bandits, so I fled here. I came here to meet the two general officers and tell the truth about the city."

"Oh?" Wang Pu became interested, and couldn't help asking quickly: "What do you have to say, and let's see how you are capable!"

Mabu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly responded: "This 'King Shun' is originally surnamed Zhang, I don't know who he is, he is the most cunning and cruel, and ordinary officers and soldiers can't resist him. It's just that he has common shortcomings, but he is extremely lustful."

"Now that he has entered Luoyang City, he has seized the Prince Nafu's mansion, and is absurd in the mansion every day. It is said that he wants to prostitute all the women in the mansion before he can rest!"

"It's just that although this person has a great reputation, he actually doesn't have many troops under his command. According to my estimate, it's only three or four thousand people."

"Nonsense!" Wang Pu couldn't help saying angrily when he heard the words, "This 'King Shun' Lao Tzu also fought against each other. He has a strong army and a large number of people. How can there be three or four thousand people? Soldiers Zuo Liangyu, Deputy Chief Soldier Tang Jiuzhou, Shizhu Chieftain Ma Fengyi and other heroes were beheaded by him in one battle."

"If there are only so many people, and the other generals have been famous for a long time, could it be that they are all rich and poor?"
