Lord of the House

(The fourth update, there is wood!)

Gao Zongting also came to Dengzhou City after dawn, and Hu Yuer also came to Dengzhou City with Gao Zongting.

Swordfish village is mainly garrisoned, the situation is much simpler, as long as Hu Yuer and other navy generals have no heart to surrender to the enemy and are willing to cooperate, it is easy to master; Zhao Hu leads his troops to defend the pass at the southern foot of Buling, and swordfish village is not easy. Attacked by enemy knights.

In comparison, the situation in Dengzhou City is much more complicated.

Half of the Dengzhou City defenders fled in the chaos, and finally gathered more than 300 people. I don't know if they can be trusted.

Yuan Zhixing and other officials are also of different factions, and Liu Yefei is either close or sparse, and it is not known how many people have bought Liu Yefei to agree to a good enemy to join him - even if most of the officials are still innocent, as the chief officials of Dengzhou Liu Yefei, who was in charge of throwing himself into the enemy, was convicted of the crime, and the officials below would only be called to **** if they could settle their minds at this time.

What's even more chaotic is the 50,000 to 60,000 people in the city. When the enemy is approaching, they are like headless flies. In addition, the street gangsters take advantage of the chaos and take advantage of the fire, and the chaos is now even more messy.

Not only people and materials in Dengzhou city should be withdrawn from the sea, but also propaganda should be launched as much as possible to remove rural peasants outside Dengzhou city, so as to weaken as much as possible what Yanhu could obtain after occupying Dengzhou. Military assistance.

Of course, Dengzhou City is still seven or eight miles away from the coast. If Zhao Hu can't successfully repel the cavalry division sent by Chen Zhihu, he wants to organize 50,000 to 60,000 people to leave Dengzhou City from the enemy's cavalry. Retreat by sea is extremely difficult.

Now, relying on a battalion of infantry to settle the situation in Dengzhou and restore the most basic defense is not much easier than Zhao Hu leading the main force to Qijia to stop the cavalry division sent by Chen Zhihu.

Gao Zongting came to Dengzhou many times, and he also met Yuan Zhixing and other Dengzhou officials. Of course, he was not as familiar with the situation in Dengzhou as Hu Yuer.

In addition to the charge of surrendering to the enemy, Hu Yuer's proof is naturally more convincing in front of Dengzhou officials and people.

"Liu Zhi... Mr. Liu... Liu Yefei... he... he... actually surrendered to the enemy in secret!" Fu Tong sentenced Yuan Zhixing to Gao Zongting and Hu Yu'er to tell Liu Yefei to secretly surrender to the enemy, and colluded with Chen Zhihu to seek Dengzhou, stunned for a while, then stammered After a long time, the words slipped out.

"Liu Yefei has already been captured. Although his confidants escaped, they have also caught a few. Please ask Lord Yuan to interrogate him personally." Gao Zongting said.

Gao Zongting’s official official in Huaidong was Dianshuling, and his title of military intelligence director Nansi was only established within Huaidong, and outsiders would not admit it – Military Secretary Dianshuling was a lowly and powerful official, similar to the master. Spreading it out on the table to calculate the official rank is far better than not being able to pass the sentence.

Huaidong pretended to be the special envoy of Jiangning, and took a letter from the Ministry of War into Swordfish Village, claiming that he was carrying a secret order to lure Liu Yefei out of Dengzhou City - this is not a small matter, but the crime of being able to throw Liu Yefei into the enemy is true, and it is not a big deal.

In addition to this point, the crime of eager to fly into the enemy with willow leaves is also out of the hope that Yuan Zhixing and other Dengzhou officials can actively cooperate with their needs to withdraw people and materials from Dengzhou City.

Gao Zongting, Zhao Hu and the others had only barely enough troops to control Dengzhou City and Swordfish Village. Laizhou, Laiyang, Haiyang, Pingdu, Zhaoyuan and other counties under the jurisdiction of Dengzhou Prefecture were spread out. Under the threat of military strength, the evacuation of its personnel and materials still needs to send a document in the name of Dengzhou to contact, and it cannot be enforced by division of troops.

Including Zhao Zhen, who is stagnant in Pingdu, may not be willing to believe the words of Huaidong and Hu Yuer, Yuan Zhixing and other Dengzhou officials can play an important role at this time...

"This..." At the beginning of Yuan Zhixing, he only thought that Liu Yefei was a person who was greedy for life and fear of death. He never thought that he had secretly surrendered to the enemy. Like Hu Yu'er's initial reaction, it was difficult to accept this fact. After hesitating for a long time, he said, " Please also ask Lord Gao to be the master..." He was not pedantic, and he was still arguing with Gao Zongting for the mastership at this time, and he also knew that the Huaidong troops had come ashore, and the people of Dengzhou could only hope that the Huaidong troops would be able to repel the captives.

Even if Liu Yefei is wronged, he will have a chance to appeal until he has his life to go to Jiangning.

Thousands of reinforcements from Huaidong came ashore, and there was no sense of urgency in Dengzhou City. Yuan Zhixing and these Dengzhou officials finally returned to some normal.

Hu Yuer said that Liu Yefei led his troops to the outside of the Daoyu Walled City and heard that the Huaidong Army entered the city and fled, and Yuan Zhixing believed most of it - as the saying goes, why not be a thief?

Liu Yefei was seriously injured in the chaotic battle. He was shot in the side by an arrow, and his sternum was trampled by a horse's hoof. He did not die on the spot, but only suffered for a few more days. .

His nephew, Liu Zhiyong, had some guts, and insisted that Huaidong and Hu Yuer had framed them—but there were not many people who participated in the matter with the backbone like Liu Zhiyong.

Liu Yefei's adopted son, Liu Fang, failed to escape while the soldiers were able to escape, so he was caught, and soon he couldn't stand the torture.

More importantly, Zhang Xie's letter advising him to surrender to the enemy was found in Liu Yefei's house - the evidence was solid, and it was not Liu Zhiyong's turn to argue again.

Yuan Zhixing and other Dengzhou officials believed that Liu Yefei had indeed surrendered to the enemy at this time. They hated Liu Yefei to death, both in his mouth and in his heart. At the moment, nearly 100 people from his family and his close confidants were imprisoned and imprisoned. , to be escorted back to Jiangning for further disposal.

Fortunately, Liu Yefei was afraid that it would be easy for the participants to get out of the way. The only ones who really knew about it were the few bureaucrats and confidants that Liu Yefei brought when he took office from Jiangning to Dengzhou. There were not many officials in the Dengzhou government. And regardless of the fact that Dengzhou officials may not have integrity before the enemy comes, they can still be used to organize the retreat of the people.

By noon, the chaotic scene in Dengzhou finally settled down a little.

When Zhao Hu entered the city, Liang Shou and Shi Anjin, who gathered various soldiers and wanted to retake the North City, showed extraordinary courage and integrity. At this time, they also temporarily entrusted Gao Zongting with important tasks to assist Chen Enze to restore the defense of Dengzhou City. In addition to experience, what is more important is the courage to calmly resist in the face of enemy pressure.

Speaking of Liang Shou, Gao Zongting had also heard that there was such a number one person in Dengzhou City.

Liang Shou was born in a butcher, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze into the yamen as a yamen.

As soon as Liang Shou appeared, he immediately pulled thousands of brave men from the streets to the top of the city to assist in defense. Compared with mediocre officials such as Yuan Zhixing, Liang Shou is more important to the urgent situation Dengzhou is currently facing - Huaidong is also willing to promote such officials and generals, which may be the core difficulty of Huaidong's rapid rise. white.

There are more heroes than the wild, but it also takes time to create them; if an invincible army comes to the scene, even if Liang Shou, who came from a humble family, is quite famous in the market, he will not have a bright future. The identity of the yamen was unknown to the end of Dengzhou.

************

Dengzhou has many mountains, hills and ravines, and the mountains are not high. Fujian Mountain is steep and difficult to climb.

However, the cavalry troops had to quickly pass through the territory of Dengzhou, and there were only a few routes to pass. After all, even the gentle hills and ridges, coupled with the obstructions of mountains and rivers, would greatly delay the speed of the cavalry passing through.

Qijiaji is located at the southern foot of the Buling Mountains, adjacent to Gushan Mountain in the south. If you don’t go to the Qijiaji, cross the Buling or take a detour from the southern foot of Gushan Mountain, you have to walk more than a hundred miles to see the gate tower of Dengzhou City. Zhao Hu also couldn't understand, which way would they go?

Even if the Qijiaji is empty, it will be too late to withdraw to Dengzhou City or Daoyu Village.

The key is whoever enters the battlefield first and controls the battlefield will take the initiative.

Ge Changgen and Dengzhou town general Zhao Huaishan led three hundred soldiers to walk the trail overnight, crossed the ridge, and entered the Qijiaji. They released scouts around the Qijiaji to block the entry and exit passages, and also boiled soup and boiled water for the subsequent soldiers and horses to enter.

Zhao Hu led his troops to reach the Qijiaji at the corner of the sun, and the outposts of the enemy cavalry also approached the periphery of the Qijiaji. The enemy's outpost had come into contact with the Huaidong Army scouts, and they returned, and the 2,000 cavalry had already approached Qijiaji, less than twenty miles away.

The cavalry trotted fast on horseback, and it took less than an hour for twenty miles.

In broad daylight, if you want to make a surprise attack completely silently, you need the enemy general to be very stupid. Being able to enter the battlefield an hour earlier than the enemy cavalry is a great advantage, which means that the infantry can get precious rest time to build up their stamina, and can rectify the formation and wind the crossbow in advance before the cavalry rushes up.

"The enemy sees that we are blocking here, will they retreat?"

Zhao Hu summoned the generals to discuss matters, and Ge Changgen was first worried that the battle would not be won.

Zhao Hu pouted and asked Ge Changgen, "If we lead 2,000 cavalry over and know that there are 3,000 foot soldiers blocking the field in front of us, should we retreat, take a detour, or dash across?"

"The time is too late, and I can't bear to take a detour. In this situation, I think about it in exchange with the enemy general, of course, rushing over!" Ge Changgen said.

"That's it," Zhao Hu said. "The enemy cavalry started from Baibu at the southern end of Changyi, and rushed all the way. It took less than two and a half days to travel four hundred miles to get here. Even if there are horses on the road. Change, people can't bear it, and when you come here, you can hold your breath and use it~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If you don't rush over in a rush, you will release the suffocation when you take a detour. If you change to someone else, you may shrink back, But the strong generals sent by Chen Zhihu should have the addiction to fight hard battles, he will come to attack us if I lose - the most important thing right now, can we withstand the impact of the two thousand cavalry?"

Zhao Huaidong was a general under Hu Yu'er. He had long been yearning for the past when Lin Fu led 3,000 foot soldiers to rampage in Yannan. He thought that there were only 2,000 enemy cavalrymen, and they were still far away. There were more than 3,000 Huaidong foot soldiers on their side. , how can you beat it?

Zhao Hu threw such a question, Ge Changgen frowned, how could the 3,000 soldiers gathered in the Qijiaji be compared with the Jiangdong Zuo Army led by Lin Fu back then?

Back then, the Jiangdong Left Army seemed to be composed of refugees, but in fact it was based on Jiyun Wuwei and Changshan Island elites. The infantry borrowed from the Danluo Kingdom rarely had the opportunity to work closely together even during the war on Danluo Island. Even the infantry under the jurisdiction of the Haidongxingying battalion is organized as a second-tier infantry battalion, and even the number of flying contradictory vehicles is far less than that of the elite battle battalions such as Changshan Island.

"Mr. Gao said that if you carry it directly, even if you can carry it, the casualties will be heavy, and it will not be worth it," Ge Changgen said, "The enemy cavalry is not familiar with the terrain of Buling, so we will set up a formation in the Qijiaji to lure When the enemy comes to attack, they will firmly attract their 2,000 troops and horses to the periphery of Qijiaji, and then send a partial division to the Bushan trail, go around to its side, and launch a surprise attack, which will definitely be able to overcome..."

"It's good to be a partial teacher to a partial teacher!" Zhao Hu exclaimed when he heard that Gao Zongting had already given advice. Even if the cavalry is not limited by the formation of the infantry, if the flank is attacked unexpectedly, it will inevitably fall into chaos. My QT room is open!
