Lord of the House

The battle of Chengziling destroyed more than a thousand people from Zhejiang and Fujian. Although most of them were newly recruited soldiers of the luxury family in Eastern Gansu, they also captured a lot of soldiers. What's more important is that the first battle of Chengziling made a big move, shaking the surrounding counties. After Yu Wencheng and Wu Jingze's troops joined forces, they followed the defeated troops and attacked Fuliang, the big city in eastern Jiangxi.

Fuliang is a big city in eastern Jiangxi, prospered by the porcelain tea Changhe River. The guard Tian Jiye gathered troops and horses from various counties into the mountains to suppress the kiln bandits. There was still a battalion of guards in Fuliang City, and the defense was very strict. Yu Wencheng saw that the enemy soldiers were vigilant, and Fuliang Chengjian, he had no equipment to attack the city, suddenly it was difficult to capture Fuliang, and according to the deployment of the Privy Council, they had to continue to hide their strength at this time, and they could not force the siege. Without hesitation, he led his troops to withdraw eastward to capture Qimen.

Qimen County is located nearly a hundred miles to the east of Fuliang, between Yishan and Jiuzishan. Qimen is closer to Nanling County, Yijiang Prefecture, but the passage connecting with Fuliang is slightly wider.

Chengziling collapsed, and there were only more than a hundred swordsmen and archers in Qimen County, and there were only eleven or two old soldiers loyal to the She family. , Kaicheng surrendered.

When Yu Wencheng won Qimen, he officially displayed the banner of the Privy Council's Eastern Jiangxi Advance Army, and sent people to pass around the surrounding counties of Yongshan, Fuliang, Duchang, and Poyang, and issued a Privy Council decree to reduce the expedition of Yongshan, Fuliang, and Poyang within three years. The people of the counties of Duchang and Poyang gave their rhetoric to the fields, and invited the village gentry and the people to fight against the rebels and the gangsters, and to resist the extravagant family * and puppet government. He also recruited soldiers from the tenant households in Qimen Mountain to defend the city bravely, to strengthen the troops of the advance army in eastern Jiangxi, and to resist the coming counterattack of the She family.

Fuliang is not far from Jiangzhou, only about 200 miles away. Fuliang County was still subordinate to Jiangzhou Prefecture in the former dynasty.

The news of Chengziling's defeat spread to Jiangzhou, Hukou, and Pengze cities on the same day. Peng Ze was the first to get the news and the quickest to respond.

Worrying that the Jiangxi Army would capture Fuliang and cut off the land passage between Jiangzhou and Shangrao on the east bank of Poyang Lake, Tian Chang, who was guarding Pengze, immediately dispatched his general Han Li to lead 2,000 elite troops to Fuliang.

Peng Ze was located to the north of Fuliang, only a hundred miles away from the hills and mountains. The day after Yu Wencheng and his troops retreated eastward, Han Li led his troops into Fuliang. On the same day, Shewenzhuang sent Su Tingzhan to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses in Jiangzhou to go south by water, enter Changhe from Duchang, and come to Fuliang.

Su Tingzhan entered Fuliang City first, and took over the defense of Fuliang.

Su Tingzhan stood at the head of Fuliang City and looked around.

Under the crescent moon, the ridges and mountains around Fuliang are ups and downs, as if turbulent waves trapped Fuliang City, which is also called Su Tingzhan's illusion of being trapped on an isolated island.

Under the moonlight, several people were approaching the city, and their armors slammed in clusters, as if a river was hitting the shore. Han Li, the valiant general of the East Fujian Province of Fuliang.

When the left-wing troops and horses retreated from Liyang, they were caught by the main force of the Huaidong Army. In order to preserve their strength, the left-wing coach Zheng Mingjing personally led the elite to break, and Han Li followed. In the end, this broken elite team was trapped on the east bank of Gucheng Lake. The life and death of the coach Zheng Mingjing was also unknown. Only a thousand people broke out from the siege of the Huaidong Army. Han Li was one of them.

At a time when She Feihu was killed on the banks of the Yiyang River and Zheng Mingjing's life and death were unknown, Han Li was already one of the few brave generals in the Zhejiang-Fujian army.

Han Li had already led his troops out of Fuliang City to pursue the east, but he just sent people to Su Tingzhan to bring back the order letter from Shewenzhuang, full of resentment, angrily climbed to the top of the city, and asked, "Your soldiers are precious. Very fast, Huaidong Mijian gathered the mob at Qimen, and it should be disintegrated with a thunderclap, why should General Su delay?"

"It's just a mob!" Su Tingzhan didn't care about Han Li's doubts, he just smiled lightly. Over the years, he has been fighting with Huaidong on the eastern front. Where would Huaidong not make a decision and then move?

If it's just a mob, that's fine.

At the beginning, the Tianbao army of more than 300,000 people beat Liang Chengchong's 20,000 elites to the brink; Liu An'er led 200,000 soldiers and horses to surround Xuzhou City, and Yue Lengqiu led the Changhuai Army of 20,000 to support it for half a year. In the formation of armour and battalion, the rabble is far from being on a par with the elite division.

If the soldiers and horses gathered at Qimen were just a mob, it would be nothing to worry about. It is a pity that things can never be so simple.

Su Tingzhan didn't bother to explain anything to Han Li, and immediately summoned all the generals in Fuliang to discuss the matter.

When Tian Weiye, the defender of Fuliang, was hit in the left shoulder when he broke through the encirclement, it was not a big problem. After all, he successfully broke through and escaped.

Su Tingzhan sat in the middle, called Tian Weiye to him, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaowei Tian, ​​you will tell us the details of the battle of Chengziling again, it's not your fault, you don't have to. What to hide..."

"The general will not dare to hide anything. What I said before is true, or I will say it again, the same is true." Tian Weiye said.

"Then say it again." Su Tingzhan said.

"On the 19th day of the second month, the scouts in Huangtian found out that the kiln thief had colluded with Gujiagou in Huangtian. At the end of the day, he led his troops to attack Gujiagou, grabbed the kiln thief's tail, and chased from Gujiagou to Chengzi. Ling, I never expected that the kiln thieves would take Chengziling as their old nest and took precautions. They were blocked outside the valley and could not get in. At the end of the day, they would seal the mouth of the valley and set up camp. They wanted to trap the kiln thieves to death. I never thought that the enemy soldiers would meet. Taking advantage of the foggy weather to attack the camp, Fuliang and Qimen were not at all alert..." Tian Weiye said.

Su Tingzhan looked at Han Li and asked, "Lieutenant General Han, what do you think?"

Han Li is brave and good at fighting, and his temperament is rude, but it does not mean that he is a reckless man. He patiently listened to Tian Weiye, the defeated general, talking about the details of the battle at Chengziling, but he heard a lot of things and said: "Huaidong is here. More than a thousand soldiers and horses have been lurking in Fuliang territory for a long time, and the kiln thief is just a bait for it, and Fuliang failed to detect it in time, so it should be killed!"

Tian Weiye was horrified, afraid that Su Tingzhan would spit out another word "kill" in his mouth, and he would have decided the black pot of Chengziling's defeat.

"Xiaowei Tian didn't realize that the kiln thief was a bait, so Lieutenant General Han decided that the mob of Qimen was not a bait?" Su Tingzhan asked.

Han Li's face sank. Su Tingzhan questioned him so much that he couldn't bear his face, but Su Tingzhan was the chief general appointed by the Grand Governor, so he couldn't bear to turn his face, and said, "General Su will make it clear if he has something to say, the last general. Quick-tempered, won't go around in circles!"

"Lieutenant Huang, tell me about the situation of the enemy soldiers attacking Fuliang City." Su Tingzhan named a thin-faced general who wanted to sit at the head of Tian Weiye.

Han Li also looked at the thin-faced general, and scolded with a smile, "Huang Biaozi, I heard that you are so bold and dare to hook up with the maids in the Grand Governor's Mansion. Thinking of you being demoted to Fuliang..."

Huang Biaozi grinned and said, "Xiao Cui is the one that the governor gave me to warm the feet of old Huang, but the governor ordered not to tell the public. It is inconvenient to invite everyone to drink the wedding wine, and I will make it up in the future." See Su Tingzhan Frowning his brows with an impatient look, he hurriedly shut his mouth and did not reminisce with Han Li. Returning to Su Tingzhan's words, he said, "There are not many thieves, the scale of which is a thousand people. At the bottom of the city, seeing that the city gate was closed, and there was no move to attack the city, he immediately retreated to the east and seized Qimen! Lao Han led his troops over, and I persuaded Lao Han to stay calm, but Lao Han was hot-tempered and refused to listen. mine……"

"Listen to your son, the day lily is cold!" Han Li scolded, a thought suddenly "clicked" in his head, pointed at Huang Biaozi, and asked in surprise, "Huang Biaozi, you are big The governor intentionally arranged it in Fuliang!"

Huang Biaozi nodded and said: "Yes, Lao Huang, I am indeed a secret chess move deployed by the Grand Governor in Fuliang. Not only Lao Huang and me, but the six hundred sons under his command are recruited from the refugees. The new soldiers are actually old brothers in the Yellow Shirt Army..."

At this time, Su Tingzhan looked at Han Li and asked, "Lieutenant General Han, do you understand the arrangement of the Governor at this time?"

Han Li frowned and asked in astonishment, "Are the soldiers and horses led by Colonel Tian to the kiln as bait?"

Su Tingzhan nodded and said: "Yes, the governor has long noticed the abnormality of the bandits in Gandong, but these bandits are scattered among the mountains~www.wuxiaspot.com~ At this time, there is simply no time to take one by one. To advance and suppress, there are not so many troops scattered and stationed in the counties, so we can only come up with other strange strategies. Fuliang City is guarded by Deputy Lieutenant Huang. , it is not difficult to surround and annihilate it, but Huaidong is far more cunning than we imagined!"

"What's the cunning? I think it was because Huaidong's troops lurking in Gandong were not strong enough to attack Fuliang City, so he retreated and went to take the Qimen Gate." Han Li said, glaring at Huang Biaozi, "Huang Biao The more you fight, the less courageous you will become, you dare not let the thieves in and fight, you should bite them..."

"Do as you said, the old Huang's skin will be peeled off by the governor," Huang Biaozi laughed, "The order I received is that Fu Liang should not be allowed to lose, and the rest are Lao Han and General Su. your business!"

Since Tian Weiye knew that he was just a bait, he sat on the side in frustration and said nothing.

Su Tingzhan said: "Huaidong's hidden soldiers and horses dare to go to Chengziling to attack the camp, but do not dare to take advantage of the situation to seize Fuliang City, which has only 600 'new soldiers' guarding it. Is it really not surprising that Vice-General Han is at all?"

Han Li couldn't hold back his face, and his mouth was hard, but his mind was not really confused. They played tricks and bait, and it was possible that Huaidong's soldiers and horses lurking in Gandong would also play this game! If Huaidong hides another thousand elites in Gandong, and he leads his troops to seize Qimen rashly, he may suffer a big loss.

"Then what should we do?" Han Li said, "Qimen is hidden in Yishan, and it controls the upper reaches of Changshui River. It can go down to Fuliang in the west. Although it is separated by mountains and ridges, it is only 30 or 50 years away from the Nanling of the Yijiang River on the east side of the mountain. At this distance, even with a basket, Huaidong can bring in a large number of soldiers, armor, bows and arrows. After ten days and a half months, if we want to retake Qimen, it will be difficult..."
