Reborn Wu Dalang

Chapter 190 Four King Qin Army

------------

Gao Qiu led an army of tens of thousands to the south of the Yangtze River, and Yue Fei's soldiers stayed for several days under the city of Bianliang.In the past few days, they have attacked Bianliang City from time to time, which made the emperors and ministers of the Song Dynasty in Bianliang City extremely terrified, and no one dared to go out of the city anymore.However, the quality of the new army formed by Qin Hui continued to improve. Under Qin Hui's order, they spent time in training every day, and Qin Hui also distributed a large amount of gold and silver in the treasury as rewards to the soldiers of the new army.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and living outside has become unbearable.

In the early morning of this day, Yue Fei came to Bianliang City again with his soldiers and horses. After they shot another arrow towards Bianliang City, the soldiers of Bianliang City above were in a mess, and Yue Fei left here again with his soldiers and horses.

"Brother, how long are we going to stay in Bianliang City?" Zhang Xian asked curiously as he followed Yue Fei.

"Stay until danger strikes." Yue Fei thought for a while and said.

The current Bianliang city is very safe. Although there are still forbidden troops and the new army formed by Qin Hui in the city, those people dare not come out at all.It's okay to let them defend the city, but it doesn't help much to let them go out of the city to attack.There are barracks of the forbidden army outside Bianliang city, but when Yue Fei took people to check those barracks these days, he found that most of the forbidden army in the barracks had fled.

There are also some garrisons in the surrounding cities, but those garrisons are few in number, and all of them are infantry, so it is impossible to threaten the safety of Yue Fei and his cavalry.

"Speaking of which, the riding skills of the brothers are getting better and better." Yue Fei laughed loudly to the back while riding the horse.

"That's right! These days we all spend time on horseback. People who don't know how to ride horses are now proficient in equestrian skills." Zhang Xian said.

"I heard that the children of those foreign races, Khitan people, and real women grew up on horseback since they were young. That is the real proficiency in riding. There is still a big difference between us and them." Yue Fei said.

"That's right, those foreign races have inherent advantages over us in this regard." Zhang Xian said.

"Is our military ration insufficient?" Yue Fei asked suddenly.

"Yes. Everyone's food is almost finished." Zhang Xian nodded.

"The spies got information that there is a forage field 100 miles south of Bianliang City. Zhang Xian, take 1000 soldiers to capture that forage field and bring me the grain inside," Yue Fei said. .

Zhang Xian nodded in agreement, and the army was divided into two parts. Yue Fei led Yang Lin and Lu Fang to continue galloping under Bianliang City, while Zhang Xian led 1000 people towards the forage field in the south.

The forage field in the south was actually prepared for the imperial army. There were a lot of horse fodder, grain and grass stored there, as well as many arrows and weapons. Zhang Xian set off in the morning and arrived at the forage field in the afternoon.When it was just dark, he led his soldiers to attack the forage field.Originally, there were 200 soldiers guarding the forage field.When Zhang Xian charged in, the 200 soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy, but none of them resisted.

"Hey, this is the forbidden army of the imperial court, what a shame! Well, I'll go in and see what's in the forage yard first." Zhang Xian cursed secretly.

When Zhang Xian led the soldiers in, he was overjoyed. There was no amount of horse fodder, grain, or weapons inside.With these things, Yue Fei's soldiers and horses can stay around Bianliang for a long time.

"A good gun, completely made of iron. This gun can be given to my elder brother." Zhang Xian walked back and forth excitedly in the arsenal of the forage yard. He kept holding any weapon, and then kept praise.

In the warehouse of the Forbidden Army in Bianliang City, most of the weapons are rusty.The same is true for this warehouse, but some of the well-preserved weapons are of excellent quality, some of which Zhang Xian has never seen before.

"In such a cold weather, we have no place to go anyway, why not take this forage field as our residence." Zhang Xian suddenly had this idea in his heart.

Then, Zhang Xian immediately sent troops to look for Yue Fei around Bianliang City, and asked Yue Fei to lead his troops to the forage field to rest.

After this day, Yue Fei's soldiers took turns to rest. Every day, 2000 people came to Bianliang City to continue to harass, while the rest of the soldiers stayed in the forage field to rest.

While Yue Fei was harassing and intimidating the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty under Bianliang City, Zhong Shidao came to Chang'an City in the northwest. He intends to continue conscription and restore the organizational system of the Western Army.

He was already over 70 years old. During this period of time, the hair on the top of his head almost fell out due to hard work.

In the middle of the night, he still didn't rest.He looked at the map on the wall, thinking in his mind what he would do if the troops from the east of the river attacked the northwest.

"It's a little difficult to stop Liangshan soldiers and horses! Fuping, Chang'an, and Fuzhou must be guarded well..." Zhong Shidao frowned and thought, and his heart was a little worried.

He feels that the Luan world is coming!Over the years, because of Hua Shi Gang, because of Zhao Ji's corruption and oppression, people from all over the country rose up one after another, rebelling and occupying mountains as kings abound.But those "thieves" are mobs, and they are definitely not opponents of the imperial court.But now Liangshan is completely different from ordinary thieves, except that there is no year name, no imperial examinations, etc., it is almost a complete regime.There are too many Liangshan soldiers and horses in Hedong, and the quality of individual soldiers is no worse than that of the Western Army.The only good news is that Hedong seems to have no good generals.

"However, Liangshan occupies Koryo. It is said that it has experienced countless wars. There must be good generals there! If the generals over there come to Hedong and command the battle in Hedong, I am afraid that the situation in Hedong is not the same at all!" Zhong Shidao looked sad. thinking.

"There are Khitan, Xixia, and Nvzhen outside, and there are Liangshan bandits inside. Is there going to be a riot in this world?" Zhong Shidao muttered to himself.

At this moment, the door of his room was suddenly knocked open, and Qu Duan in military uniform broke in.Behind Qu Duan were several soldiers, and behind these soldiers was a civil servant.

"Qu Duan, what happened?" Zhong Shidao asked with a frown.

"My lord, there is an important military situation. The troops from Hedong have already reached Bianliang!" Qu Duan knelt down on the ground and said anxiously.

"What? The troops from Hedong defeated Bianliang? How is this possible?" Zhong Shidao was taken aback.

From Hedong to Bianliang, there are still many cities in the middle, and it will take a long time to take down these cities one by one. He feels that it is impossible for the troops from Hedong to reach Bianliang so quickly.Besides, although the Western Army suffered heavy losses, it still has a strong strength.If the soldiers and horses in Hedong do not eliminate the Western Army and attack Bianliang first, they will face the double attack of the Western Army and the Forbidden Army.

"My lord, this one is an envoy from Bianliang, he brought a message from His Majesty, asking your lord to raise troops to serve the king immediately." Qu Duan said.

When the civil servant behind Qu Duan stood up, he told the current situation of Bianliang City, and finally said: "My lord, Your Majesty is in danger, you should lead the soldiers to Bianliang immediately! Besides your lord, we will also inform you He informed Lord Tong, and he notified the generals in Hebei, Shandong, and Jiangnan, and asked these generals to raise troops to serve the king."

Zhong Shidao still couldn't believe it, and said: "How many soldiers and horses are there in Hedong?"

The messenger said: "There are probably thousands of people."

Zhong Shidao was taken aback for a moment, and said: "There are only a few thousand people in the area, can't the imperial army drive them away?"

The envoy looked ashamed and said: "Lord Zhong, Master Cai led 10 forbidden troops out of the city, but was rushed by the soldiers from Hedong, and all the forbidden troops were dispersed. Now the forbidden troops dare not go out of the city at all, so they can only let the soldiers from the east of the river stay in the city." Run outside."

Zhong Shidao was a little angry in his heart. He also knew that the forbidden army was not good, but he didn't expect that the forbidden army would look like this!

"Call up [-] troops, and we will go to Bianliang immediately!" Zhong Shidao couldn't give up the emperor after all, so he could only issue such an order at this moment.

In the past few days, he had packed up 2 soldiers in total, and now he was going to Bianliang with these 2 people.

"Tell the soldiers, as long as you get to Bianliang, His Majesty will definitely reward you!" Qu Duan was about to go out to convey the order, but Zhong Shidao hurriedly issued such an order.

For any army in the Song Dynasty, if there is no monetary reward, the soldiers will definitely not fight hard.Especially the Western Army, which had just been defeated by the soldiers from Hedong. Now the soldiers have no morale at all. If there is no reward, it is impossible for the soldiers to leave Chang'an City.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Zhong!" the messenger said excitedly.

In the middle of the night that day, regardless of his fatigue, Zhong Shidao personally led [-] soldiers and horses towards Bianliang City.

Soon after, Tong Guan also got the news, Tong Guan was shocked, he is the emperor's confidant, everything about him comes from the current emperor.If something happened to the emperor, he would also lose all authority.So he also mobilized an army of [-] and headed towards Bianliang City.

In the direction of Qi County to the north of Fenyang, Taiyuan prefect Zhang Xiaochun and his general Wang Zhi are guarding the county seat of Qi County.

Originally they led troops to attack Fenyang, but under Zhu Wu's defense, their attack did not have any effect.In the end, Zhu Wu launched a counterattack again, not only driving away the Taiyuan soldiers and horses, but also taking down Pingyao and Taigu in front.Zhang Xiaochun and Wang Ti were unable to launch an attack, so they could only defend Qi County and prevent Zhu Wu's army from defeating Qi County.

"How can the Hedong bandits be so powerful? They have such a large number of soldiers and horses, it's really unexpected." Zhang Xiaochun said in pain in the county town of Qi County.

When Tian Hu occupied Hedong before, he didn't dare to offend Taiyuan City at all.At that time, Taiyuan City was also ordered to encircle and suppress Tian Hu. Although Tian Hu's territory was not taken down, Tian Hu's army did not have much combat power in front of the Taiyuan army.Now Liangshan's people replaced Tianhu's people. They thought that Liangshan's people were as vulnerable as Tianhu's people. Who knew that Liangshan's people were much stronger than Tianhu's.The number of soldiers is more than that of Tian Hu's soldiers, and the quality of the soldiers far exceeds that of Tian Hu's soldiers.

"Master Zhang, the imperial court asked us to help Bianliang City, should we take troops to Bianliang?" Wang Ting sat at the bottom and asked with a frown.

"Go to Bianliang? Our current army can't even defend the surrounding area of ​​Taiyuan. If we go to Bianliang, I'm afraid Taiyuan City will be captured. It will be terrible then." Zhang Xiaochun shook his head and said.

Now the people in Liangshan occupy the river east in name, but in fact they only occupy the land of the five prefectures in river east.The most important city in Hedong is still Taiyuan. As long as Liangshan's army does not conquer Taiyuan, Taiyuan City will always threaten the north of Liangshan, and Liangshan will not dare to rush into the Central Plains.So Zhang Xiaochun felt that he must not go to Bianliang, otherwise Taiyuan City would be in danger.

"However, Your Majesty, Your Majesty ordered us to attend to the King. If we don't go, Your Majesty will definitely blame Your Majesty when the time comes." Wang reported.

"There are only a few thousand thieves in Bianliang City. The incompetent imperial army can't even drive away such a small number of people, and they want the King of Qin? This is really the biggest joke I've ever heard!" Zhang Xiaochun snorted coldly.

"My lord, no matter what, we should send some troops to Bianliang." Wang Ting still persuaded.

"In this way, you lead 3000 people to Bianliang, and I will stay here." Zhang Xiaochun thought carefully, and finally gritted his teeth and said these words.
