Reborn Wu Dalang

Chapter 190 Five Taiyuan Raiders

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

As a subject of the Great Song Dynasty, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty was attacked by the enemy, and the life of the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was threatened. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiaochun had no choice but to save him.

No matter how unwilling he was, he still sent Wang Zhi to Bianliang City with 3000 troops to drive away Yue Fei's troops.

After Wang Ting left, Zhang Xiaochun was still very angry in his heart, such an imperial court and such an imperial army really disappointed him.

"Come here, invite all the generals here." After walking a few steps in the room, Zhang Xiaochun said suddenly.

After about a quarter of an hour, all the generals in the Taiyuan Army came to Zhang Xiaochun's room and sat under Zhang Xiaochun.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to hold Qi County anymore, let's return to Taiyuan." Looking at the generals below, Zhang Xiaochun was silent for a long time, then suddenly said.

"Ah! In this case, not only did we fail to conquer the Hedong bandits, but we gave up all the cities around Taiyuan to the Hedong bandits. This time the battle was a complete failure." A general below said in disbelief.

"There's nothing we can do about it. We only have 5 people, and there are a lot of thieves in Hedong. If we continue to stay in Qi County, if Qi County is captured by then, our 5 people will also suffer heavy losses. Now go back In Taiyuan City, at least we can keep our soldiers and horses." Zhang Xiaochun sighed.

The generals below were all frowning, and a middle-aged general said: "My lord, if the Hedong bandits attack Taiyuan City, what should we do?"

Zhang Xiaochun snorted coldly, and said, "Attack Taiyuan City? Do you think they have such ability?"

Taiyuan City is the most important town in the north of the Great Song Dynasty. The city wall is very high and thick, and there is a moat formed by the wide Fen River below, and the defense is extremely strong.From the moment it was built, it was like a huge mountain, and it was by no means easy to conquer.Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was unable to conquer Taiyuan City in his life. Song Taizong Zhao Kuangyi used all his power to conquer Taiyuan City, and it took half a year to conquer Taiyuan City. It took only one month to conquer Taiyuan City, but it took more than nine months to conquer Taiyuan City.

Such a majestic city, as long as they entered it, they would not be afraid of Liangshan's attack.

After hearing Zhang Xiaochun's words, smiles appeared on the faces of the rest of the generals. They were extremely confident in the Taiyuan City they defended, and did not believe that Liang Shan could conquer Taiyuan City.They even didn't believe that Liangshan soldiers dared to attack Taiyuan City.

"Very good, you go down now, gather the soldiers, we leave Qi County overnight, and return to Taiyuan." Zhang Xiaochun thought for a while, and said.

"My lord, the soldiers are very tired. I don't think we should leave tomorrow morning?" a general said hesitantly.

"Unfortunate! It's safer to set off at night. If we set off tomorrow morning and the Liangshan bandits catch up, we will die or injure many soldiers. Hurry up and wake up all the soldiers and set off now." Zhang Xiaochun cursed angrily.

The quality of the Taiyuan soldiers was good, and after half an hour they were all assembled, and then they left Qi County without making much noise.

When the next morning, when Zhu Wu led the army to arrive, Qi County had already become an empty city.

At this moment, there are several generals beside Zhu Wu, one of them is eight feet tall, similar to Wu Dong, but compared to Wu Dong, he has more aggressiveness.Although the other person was not as tall as Wu Song, he was also unusually strong, his eyes glowed, and it was obvious that his martial arts were also extremely advanced.On the other side is a middle-aged man who is thinner and thinner, but he also looks very capable.

It turns out that these three people are Wu Song, Li Ying and Bai Sheng who came from Shuibo!

"This time, I would like to thank the three generals for coming to help!" General Zhu invited the three of them to the Qi County Yamen, and said with a smile on his face.

"Everyone is from Liangshan, and it is right to help each other. Besides, the water is relatively safe, and our army can play a limited role in the water, so I brought them here." Wu Song sat down Come down, also said with a smile.

"Is there really nothing going on at Shuibo? I heard that the imperial court also has tens of thousands of troops besieging Shuibo?" Zhu Wu asked with some concern.

"Don't worry, there is no problem. The 800-mile Liangshan River is not so easy to conquer. The naval forces of the imperial court are limited, and they cannot compete with our water army at all." Wu Song said.

It turned out that Wu Song set off from Liangshanbo half a month ago and came here just two days ago to assist Zhu Wu in the battle.But when they arrived, Zhu Wu had already gained the advantage, so they didn't help much.

"Mr. Zhu, I don't know what's going on in the southeast of the river?" Li Ying asked.

"The 20 western troops have been defeated in the south! Moreover, a young general led his troops straight to Bianliang, which made people in Bianliang panic, and troops from all over the country went to Bianliang to serve the king." Zhu Wudao.

"Oh? There is such a young general? What's his name?" Wu Song asked curiously.

"It's called Yue Fei. He was originally a brigade commander in the reserve service. After he went to the front this time, he was accepted as a disciple by General Lin. He played an extremely important role in this battle." Zhu Wu said with a smile.

"When we have a chance, we will meet this young general." Wu Song said.

"Naturally, I want to see him too." Zhu Wu also said with a smile.

Several people sat there and exchanged greetings, Zhu Wu's expression was quite respectful.Although he is an important official in the Hedong theater, Wu Song is Wu Dong's younger brother, so he can't help but treat him disrespectfully.

Wu Song, on the other hand, felt that there was nothing wrong with him.He knew that his ability to lead troops to fight was very average, and this time he came here with the idea of ​​assisting Zhu Wu, and he had already decided to listen to Zhu Wu in everything.Zhu Wu is one of the rare resourceful people, so he should be right.

"I'm going to rush to Taiyuan City right now, and ask some generals to help!" Zhu Wu said suddenly after saying a few words.

"To Taiyuan City? Are we going to attack Taiyuan City?" Wu Song asked in surprise.

"That's right, I've decided to conquer the entire Taiyuan City in one fell swoop! After the Taiyuan City is conquered, the entire River East will completely belong to us." Zhu Wu said.

"However, I'm afraid Taiyuan City is not so easy to conquer? We don't have many siege equipment. With our large army, even if we charge forward desperately, we may not be able to conquer Taiyuan City." Wu Song frowned.

Originally, Wu Song was just a very simple warrior, but since he went to Liangshan, he often attacked various places, and he had to understand the situation in various places.He also knows the strength of Taiyuan City, and feels that conquering Taiyuan City now is a bit of a dream.

Although there are a lot of soldiers and horses in Hedong, they really don't have many siege equipment.For example, on the Koryo side, there are so many siege equipment, and even the artillery has been researched, but this side is much worse.

"If we attack hard, of course it will be difficult for us to take down. At the beginning of Song Taizong's overwhelming power, the number of imperial troops and box soldiers reached one million, the number of crossbowmen was 30, and there were countless siege equipment. Thousands of fighters, even so, it took half a year to take down Taiyuan City, and finally the enemy surrendered. We only have more than [-] troops, and it is absolutely impossible to attack Taiyuan City. It’s just that I have already contacted some of the guards in Taiyuan City , when the time comes, they will open the city gates for us, and we can just rush in." Zhu Wudao.

"Ah! It turned out to be like this!" Both Wu Song and Li Ying had surprise smiles on their faces.

Any city, no matter how strong it is, is quite easy to destroy from the inside.If there are guards in Taiyuan City who are willing to act as internal support, it will be very easy to conquer Taiyuan City with the current 10,000+ troops.After all, there are only 10,000 defenders in Taiyuan City. If they don't have the advantage of defending the city, they are no match for [-]+ Liangshan troops.

So after taking over the county seat of Qixian County, Liangshan's army continued to march towards Taiyuan City.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the soldiers have already put on cotton padded clothes.Even so, he was still shivering from the cold, and didn't feel his body warm up until he had walked several miles.

Wu Song and Li Ying were standing on a hill at the moment, watching the soldiers pass by one after another, Wu Song took a deep breath, with an excited smile on his face, and said: "I've been stuck in the water for two years, I'm really depressed and ruthless." Yes. I have decided to stay in the Hedong theater from now on, this place is much better than Shuibo."

Li Ying was taken aback, and said: "I have no problem staying in Hedong, but if you stay here, General Lin and Mr. Zhu may not know what to do."

Wu Song said with a smile: "Is it because of my identity? Don't worry, after I come here, I will become their subordinate, and I will never disobey their orders easily."

Li Ying shook his head, feeling that this matter was not that simple.If Wu Song really came here, Lin Chong and Zhu Wu would definitely feel in the way.The younger brother of the governor, they are afraid that they dare not use it boldly.

In fact, Lin Chong would never have such an idea. Although Lin Chong and Wu Dong are sworn brothers, they are no different from blood brothers.So for Wu Song, he would not dare to use Wu Song just because of Wu Dong's status.

After the soldiers passed by, the two followed.

After more than a hundred miles, they came across several hills and a military town, but there was no ambush in these places, and the people in the military town were all gone.

The villages encountered along the way were also empty, and the people there probably escaped the trenches and went to other places.

"Prosperity, the people are suffering. Death, the people are suffering. I really hope that one day, the land of China will never suffer such disasters again." Walking on the road, Wu Song suddenly had such an idea in his heart.

After more than [-] Liangshan troops arrived at the foot of Taiyuan City, they did not immediately attack the city, but set up camp there slowly. One day later, countless military camps stood at the foot of Taiyuan City, and the defenders and people in Taiyuan City became panicked.
