Chapter 515: Addition
On the table, Ma Yuan said, "Thanks to Brother Gongming and the military advisor's design, otherwise, how could he win so easily?"
The leaders nodded and said yes.
Lai Yong'er said, "Although the plan is good, we must also work with all the brothers. Brother Gongming will be rewarded. I will return to the army tomorrow, [Iron-backed wolf] Cui Hao, [Crashing the sky] Yin Tai, [Ghost of the Earth] Yin Chun, three brothers, went with me, preparing to fight against another imperial official army. In Linzi City, Brother Ma Yuan is still in charge and clearing the remnants of the official army."
On the second day, Yong'er and his group came to go out of the city and returned to Yidu. In Linzi City, Ma Yuan was not in a hurry to go out of the city to wipe out the official army, but only sent scouts to inquire about the place where the official army was settled.
The news of Gao Lian's defeat spread throughout Qingzhou. After hearing this, the thieves in Qingzhou all disappeared.
Zhao Zhen also found out that Gao Lian was defeated and summoned the generals to discuss matters on the march.
After seeing the ceremony, Zhao Zhen said, "Everyone, Gaozhizhou, the northern road, is a big defeat, I am afraid that this is not easy to capture."
After hearing this, Hu Yanzhuo stood up and said, "My grandpa, we have received great kindness from the court, and we should serve the country with all our loyalty. The young general is the commander of the army, but he has no merits and is willing to be the vanguard."
Zhang Qing also said: "Hu Yan's command has been in war for many days, and the generals have already made the best of breaking the city. The day before yesterday, it was decided that the young general is the vanguard, how can he change it?"
Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui also hurriedly stood up and said, "This is not the same as before. Now that the generals and the army are overthrown, the court will be furious. Since we went to war, we have not made any contributions. We have lost our troops and lost our generals. We are afraid that we will be severely punished. I pray that we will be fair to us as the vanguard and make meritorious contributions."
Seeing that the three of them were competing for merit, Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "You are dedicated to the country. Today we will go to Linqu for a day to rest and wait for the angels to announce the order. Then we will go straight to the Yidu City. At that time, you will be forced to do your best."
Outside Linqu City, Zhao Zhen led a group of soldiers out of Guo to greet him. The person who issued the edict was Hou Meng, who was familiar to Zhao Zhen, who brought the imperial edict to the city and placed the Longting incense table.
Zhao Zhen and other generals were neatly knelt down to the north. After paying a visit, the Hou faced the south and stood on the left of Longting, reading the edict:
The commander said: I respect the heaven and the ancestors, and Zhang Shaohongji, but only rely on Jie to maintain his great cause. Recently, there are many warnings in the country, and the country's fortune is Shaoning. Fortunately, it is the pioneer of the Eastern Capital. Zhao Ze, the bandits on the east road, was in charge of Zhao Ze, and was struggling mountains and rivers. He made contributions to the pacification of the enemy. I am really lucky.
Now, he specially sent the Censor Hou Meng to carry the edict and give gold, silver, robes, satin, and famous titles to show his merits. This is also because the powerful thief Song Jiang attacked Shandong and occupied Qingzhou, but it had not yet been leveled. Zhao Ze was specially ordered to be the envoy to recruit soldiers and civilians, and to control the affairs of bandit suppression. Except for Gaolian, Gao Tangzhou, all the other generals were controlled by the pressure.
On the day of the edict, he led the army and attacked Qingzhou. You and other soldiers worked together to do their loyalty, and their merits were flattened and rewarded. What a pity! Special order.
On April 8, 2019.
Hou Meng finished reading the alchemy edict and did not wait for Zhao Zhen and others to shout long live, but also received an imperial edict, either a royal edict or a reprimand, and it was not the same. After reading it, the generals thank you again.
Hou Meng put down the edict and smiled and went up to Zhao Zhen and said, "Congratulations on recruiting the prince, and promoting the title, and gladly getting a beautiful lady."
Zhao Zhen said: "I am asking the emperor to be prosperous and prosperous, but I am only relying on the achievements of my brothers. Song Jiang has not yet been awarded the title, and Qingzhou has not yet been pacified, so I still need to live. Now Gaozhizhou in the North Road is defeated, and I am afraid that it will be possible to destroy Song Jiang for a while."
Hou Meng was shocked when he heard this: "What? Gao Zhizhou was defeated?"
Zhao Zhen nodded and informed Hou Meng of the news he had found.
Hou Meng took a breath and said, "Can Gao Zhizhou and others have any news?"
"The Qingzhou thieves have not yet promoted the killing of Gao Zhizhou and others. I think they have never died. Qingzhou is full of Qingzhou bandits, so I am afraid they can't hide it." Zhao Zhen said.
Hou Meng said: "You can ask your husband to help you..."
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "Yidu is here, how can the army get through? Here is me." Hou Meng sighed when he heard this.
He said to Zhao Zhen: "Since that's the case, I won't stay much. I'll return to Bianjing and report to the emperor."
Zhao Zhen strongly invited Hou Meng to rest for a day before leaving, but Hou Meng refused and insisted on leaving.
Zhao Zhen had no choice but to send a plate of gold and silver to Hou Meng, and also sent some silver to the imperial guards escorted.
After seeing Hou Meng away, Hu Yanzhuo and others all stepped forward to congratulate Zhao Zhen. Only Zhao Zhen received the reward from the officials along the way. Except for Zhang Qing, who had just arrived in Dongchang Prefecture, the rest were scolded. Not only could they not be promoted, but it would be good if they could maintain their current official position.
Now Zhao Zhen is promoted to the pacification envoy and controls everyone. The Liangshan Army is strong and has many achievements. Naturally, everyone thinks that it is better to make contributions under Zhao Zhen's command, and it will not be in vain to fight with the enemy.
Zhao Zhen said to everyone: "Tomorrow, we will send troops and go straight to the capital. Zhang Qing is still the vanguard, and the rest of the troops are combined to carry food, grass and supplies."
Everyone obeyed the order and went to prepare.
On the second day, Zhang Qing went first, and Zhao Zhen and others set off one after another.
Song Jiang, Yidu, had already found out clearly that Lai Yonger and his group also turned around from Linzi. The soldiers and horses gathered at the Yidu city. There were 50,000 Qingzhou thieves fighting, 30,000 young men, and 14 leaders, with very neat horses.
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
Who are these fourteen people? They all lead [Rain in time] Song Jiang, military advisor [Seeing Ghosts Sorrow] Lai Yong'er, leader [Fei Lian] Huangfu Xiong, [Miye Leaf Leopard] Di Lei, [Iron Arhat] Fatong, [Sea Dragon] Qinhui, [Baoshan Bear] Zhao Fu, [Stacking the Sea General] Zhao Gui, [Optimus Prime] Ren Yuan, [Ugly Scholar] Wanqide. [Iron-backed wolf] Cui Hao, [Crashing the sky] Yin Tai, [Dragon drilling] Yin Chun, Ruan Zhaoer.
Besides, Zhao Zhen is not inferior to that of the war generals and soldiers are not inferior to the thieves in Qingzhou.
Hu Yanzhuo, Zhang Qing and nine others had 11,000 troops, and a cavalry army was connected.
Zhao Zhen here has four horse army battalions, 5,000 crossbowmen, 2,500 firearm battalions, 2,500 mountain battalions, 2,500 Guanghui and Deng Yuanjue, 2,500 Zhao Xin, Gao Liangshi, and Hua Mian, and Li Ying and Shi En led 2,000 people to patrol the rear. In addition to the female cavalry, there were also 20,000 soldiers. There were also five thousand civilians who transported siege equipment, food and supplies. Hurry all the way to Yidu.
Zhang Qing went straight to the city and saw that there were wooden cannon stones on the top of Yidu City, crossbow stems and bows, and gray bottles and gold juice were all ready. At the same time, the capital was strong and the troops were strong. Zhang Qing only had three thousand soldiers and did not dare to fight. He slowly retreated and waited for Zhao Zhen's brigade of troops.
There was nothing to say on the road, and the army arrived directly under the Yidu City.
After a day of rest, Zhao Zhen set up a large army, two miles away from the city, and set up a military formation. Zhang Qing was ordered to lead [Flower Tiger] Gong Wang and [Arrow Tiger] Ding Desun to come forward to fight.
On Yidu City, Song Jiang saw a large group of people under the city and asked, "Military advisor, do you want to go out of the city to fight?"
Lai Yonger said, "Brother Gongming, look. Zhao Zhen really has the means. Many people and horses asked him to join the same place. There are three thousand horse troops on the left and right wings, and the serial armored horse on the left must be Hu Yanzhuo. The right wing should be the Liangshan horse army. The cannon stand in the formation should be the Liangshan artillery camp."
"A soldier who fled back from Laiwu Supervisory once said that the Liangshan Army used artillery every day and the city walls were broken. With this powerful weapon, it would definitely not be possible to defend the city."
"Fortunately, Zhao Zhen is used to being arrogant. Judging from the size, the soldiers are less than 40,000, less than half of them. He may not be able to capture the city. With Zhao Zhen's plan, he will definitely not be willing to attack the city. It is our opportunity to hold on to the city."
"Some of our brothers are very skilled in martial arts. If we fight outside the city, we will just fight. Killing him and others will boost morale. When Brother Ma Yuan clears the remnants of the official army and comes to reinforce, we will have more advantages."
