Chapter 197
After crossing the Dushikou, Li Chongjiu's [-] iron cavalry headed south quickly. Because each person had at least three cavalry to transfer, the marching speed was extremely fast.

Inside the Great Wall is another scene. The official road at the foot of Yanshan Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles.At this time, Gao Tansheng rebelled and rebelled, and it was less than a month ago. Many towns and townships along the way have not been destroyed by the bandit army, but the people heard that the county magistrate, county lieutenant, etc. were killed, and they didn't know what to do for a while. .

But in a blink of an eye, seeing a large army coming, I thought at first that the imperial court sent an army to suppress the rebellion, and I was overjoyed to congratulate them along the road. When I got closer, I was shocked to realize that the army to suppress the rebellion by the imperial court was not only cavalry, but also a single person They were all wearing leather robes with their fronts open to the left, and their hair was not tied up, just draped and braided, and some even had their hair broken.

"The barbarians are coming!" The common people rushed to tell each other.If it were an ordinary township, people would run away so early and the buildings would be empty, but Huairong County is a border county and has experienced many wars, so the folk customs are extremely tough.Because of the rebellion, the villagers have set up their own strongholds to defend themselves, and now they are on strict alert.

After a while of trepidation, the people were also surprised. In the past, the barbarian cavalry were brutal. If they plundered the territory, they would burn, kill and loot without waiting. But today, they have not committed any crimes.Later, many Han people did not hear the news, and they were captured by Hu cavalry alone.

It turned out that Li Chongjiu knew that he wanted to go south, because the Hu people have always had no military discipline, and they are used to being free and loose, so it is easy to cause troubles in the local area.Therefore, before Li Chongjiu went south, he recruited four guards, [-] army leaders, and [-] building owners. There were three chapters in the agreement.It also stated that if more than three people commit crimes, the leader of the team will be beheaded; if more than ten people commit crimes, the leader of the building will be beheaded;This strict punishment made Hu Qi shudder.Li Chongjiu sent the cavalry of the three regiments under his command to serve as military police and monitor along the way.

The military discipline was so strict that in less than a day, [-] cavalry arrived at the city of Huairong County, and the speed was so fast that the rebels in the city were unexpectedly caught off guard.Li Chongjiu's army filed out from the mountain road one after another.Autumn is high and crisp, and it is the time for the sun to bask in the sun.Seeing the enemy cavalry approaching in the county town, they were so courageous that instead of closing the city to defend themselves, they opened the city gates wide and released thousands of soldiers to line up in front of the city, obviously intending to fight against the city.

Li Chongjiu looked at Xindao's anti-Wang Gaotansheng, but he still had a bit of courage. At this time, a white flag was raised in the opponent's formation, and several people rode over together.

"The lobbyist is here." Li Chongjiu said to himself.

After the interrogation and release, these cavalry came to Li Chongjiu, and one of them came up to Li Chongjiu as a messenger, and said: "It turns out that it is Li Taishou of Shanggu County. I didn't know that I was far away to welcome him. I don't know why the eunuch came here to raise troops?"

Li Chongjiu said: "This is another question, this Huairong County is so small, it can't accommodate so many of us hunting."

After hearing this, the envoy said forcefully: "Back to Taishou Li. Since the establishment of my country, I have been in harmony with the prefect and have not used swords. Now Taishou Li suddenly raised troops to surround our country for no reason and raise troops to attack crimes. What's the name?"

Li Chongjiu raised his horsewhip and said: "How can you sleep soundly on the couch!"

This emissary was also a eloquent person. He was going to prepare a bunch of speeches, but he was blocked by Li Chongjiu, and he could only retreat in embarrassment.

Don't go to Liaodong, it has never been difficult to travel.

The long river crosses without a boat, and the high mountains meet the clouds.

Qingshuang's clothes are bitter and thin, and Daxue's bones are about to gouge out.

The sunset is cold and the mountains are endless, and the shady ice lies on the rain and destroys the heart and liver.

On the official road in Anle County, an invisible army like a long dragon is hurrying towards the official road leading to Huairong County in Zhuo County.Although this army was ragged, its morale was very high. While marching, they sang the Liaodong Towards Death Song written by Zhishilang Wang Bo.In the middle of the army, the continuous sound of horseshoes sounded. The knights on the horses were all vigorous and skilled in equestrianism. Many of them were wearing two sets of armor or helmets. They were obviously elite divisions.

"Your Majesty, you said that the Turkic people are really good at training soldiers. These little bastards have only been trained for three months, and they already have a bit of posture. If it takes another half a year, hey, we can go to Zhuojun Eating meat for Chinese New Year." General Zhang Jinshu, who was bloated and obese, looked at his cavalry and said happily.

And next to Zhang Jinshu, who was called the King of Qi, was a man with rough hands and feet and a face like black dates.This man's face was full of scars, and there was a striking arrow sore on his forehead. Now he sat on the horse with his armour, and said: "The purpose of training soldiers is to kill people. When you arrive in Huairong County, you will give me a high-level speech." Holy head, understand?"

Zhang Jinshu showed a look of sudden realization, nodded like an old chicken pecking at rice, and said, "Yes, yes." Zhang Jinshu said with such a heart on the surface, it turned out that his king went to Huairong County not to be the king of Qi, but to beat Liu Bei into Nishikawa's idea.The king in the mouth of this golden tree is the bandit Gao Kaidao who went to Yuyang County. Right now, he has seized tens of thousands of elite soldiers and is entering Huairong County via Anle County.

Gao Kaidao said: "What do you say to go to Zhuojun to eat meat for the New Year? You don't care how good you are. As long as Xue Shixiong's [-] left guards are still in Zhuojun for a day, we will never want to enter Zhuojun, let alone If there is a vacancy in Zhuo County, then Luo Yi's five thousand Youyan iron cavalry would have sent troops south, so it won't be our turn."

Zhang Jinshu nodded repeatedly, and said: "Your Majesty is right, but since Xue Shixiong is in Zhuo County, even if we take down Huairong County, we won't be able to defend it."

Gao Kaidao wiped the arrow sore on his forehead and said, "What do you know, attacking Huairong County means Turkic Khan."

"What?" Zhang Jinshu finally understood who the master behind his master was.What a high-spirited saint, compared to the Turkic Khan dominating the grassland, he is a scumbag, how could his master defect to this person.

Gao Kaidao said: "The Turkic Khan is the hero, and he intends to swallow the thousands of miles south. Now Liu Wuzhou has surrendered, Liang Shi has surrendered, and even Tang Gong Li Yuan heard that he will surrender. It belongs to the Turkic people, and I can count as finding a way out for my brothers by doing this.”

"As for Xue Shixiong, he was also a famous general of the Sui army. He was the only one who fled back to Liaoshui with his brothers and brothers in the 30 troops that conquered Liao. But now, he can't support the great Sui Dynasty alone. Let's see, as long as we Once we leave Huairong County, the Turkic people will support us, and Xue Shixiong will never dare to fart."
