Chapter 513 Surrender to the enemy

Baodu Village is 340 miles away from Luoyang City. After Li Daliang received the order from Li Sanniang and Chen Changzhen, he rushed to Luoyang City with one person and three horses in one day and one night.

When Li Daliang arrived at the Changxia Gate of the south gate of Luoyang, Zhang Shunzheng was wearing a coarse shirt and holding a shovel and supervising Ding Zhuang to dig a guard trench outside Luoyang City.

When Zhang Shun heard that there was an urgent military situation, he handed the shovel in his hand to the priest Gao Yizhi beside him and said to him: "Sorry for the trouble, Father Gao!"

Originally, Zhang Shun was quite disgusted with this "foreign devil", but he did not expect that after the completion of the Luoyang city defense reconstruction, this guy also proposed the establishment of trenches and guard slopes outside the city.

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig walking? Zhang Shun watched too many anti-Japanese dramas in his previous life, so he still had a certain understanding of the trenches.

At least he knew that bullets would not turn downwards. Even in the face of more powerful firepower in later generations, including howitzers, trenches could greatly reduce the casualties of soldiers.

Therefore, Zhang Shun followed Shan Ruliu and immediately ordered Zhang Shenyan to recruit strong men in the city and dig trenches and guard slopes outside the moat outside the city to strengthen the defense of Luoyang City.

Fortunately, there are students from Songyang Academy on top. After careful training by Zhang Shenyan, these people became more and more skilled in their work. After counting the population of both men and women in the city, they easily mobilized thousands of people to dig trenches and protect slopes.

Zhang Shun entered Prince Fu's Mansion and saw Li Daliang who had come from afar. He quickly took his hand and asked, "Are Daliang and brother okay? I haven't seen you for many days and I miss him very much."

Seeing that Zhang Shun recognized him, Li Daliang couldn't help but responded quickly: "Everything is fine, but there is an urgent military situation here. One is good news, the other is bad news. I wonder which one the general will listen to first?"

Zhang Shun couldn't help but darken his face, and directly ordered: "Tell me the reasons for this!"

Li Daliang originally wanted to be jealous, but Zhang Shun was not happy for some reason, so he could only scratch his head in embarrassment and said: "General Chen asked me to report that 'Little Yuchi' Wei Congyi, General Wei, discovered that there were six thousand officers and soldiers from the south of Lu." Come here with the intention of attacking Luoyang."

"The leading generals are Ni Chong and Wang Pu, who are preparing to go down the Luo River and attack from Yongning and Yiyang!"

"Oh? Wei Congyi!" Zhang Shun read his name and couldn't help laughing, "It's rare for him to be loyal!"

"Well, it's hard to say whether this person is loyal or not!" Li Daliang replied hesitantly, "It is said that his staff are wrapped in sackcloth and are seeking refuge with the officers and soldiers. I'm afraid the officers and soldiers have already known the truth about our army!"

"What?" Zhang Shun stood up in surprise and couldn't help but said angrily, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you hesitate here, if you delay the important events of the rebel army, wouldn't you die forever!"

"General, forgive me!" Li Daliang saw that the joke had gone too far, and he quickly begged for mercy, "It's not Daliang who is trying to show off, the key point is that this matter is still controversial."

It is said that after receiving the order from the new Governor of Henan, Chen Qiyu, Ni Chong and Wang Pu of the Beijing Camp quickly visited Xuanmo, the Governor of Henan.

Although Xuan Mo, the governor of Henan, did not want to let them go, he had no choice but to say that among the local officials in the Ming Dynasty, the governor's position was more military-oriented, while the governor's position was more civil affairs.

If a province does not yet have a governor, the governor can also take charge of military and civil affairs. If there is a governor, the governor has no choice but to do the next best thing.

As the saying goes, "the three things to do when a new official takes office", Xuan Mo, the governor of Henan, did not want to get in trouble with the newly appointed governor Chen Qiyu, who had just been demoted.

What's more, the combat effectiveness of the Beijing camp was inferior to that of Zuo Liangyu and Li Bei's frontier troops. He nodded and said, "Since the governor has the order, you two can't help yourself. What does Xuan Mo have to say?"

So Ni Chong and Wang Pu led their 6,000 troops to arrive at Lushi County in two days according to Chen Qiyu's order.

The Beijing camp was originally a "young master's soldier" and could not bear the hardships. After staying at the Inspection Department of Zhuyang Town for a long time to prepare for bandits, I could no longer bear it.

Now that he finally arrived at the county seat, after being entertained by County Magistrate Bai and the big families in the city, he suddenly lost the intention to attack Luoyang from the east.

Unexpectedly, that night, just when Ni Chong and Wang Pu were about to rest, they heard that the soldiers came to report that a man came to join the army and wanted to see the commander-in-chief Ni Chong and Wang Pu by name.

So who are Ni Chong and Wang Pu? How can ordinary people see it whenever they want? Fortunately, Ni Chong and Wang Pu drank some wine today and became a little tipsy, so they became interested and wanted to see who dared to disturb their rest.

Not long after, an old man as lean as a monkey came in, bowed to Ni Chong and Wang Pu three times, and shouted loudly: "You are so polite to the two commander-in-chiefs. I have a lot of merit that I want to give to you. Two Sir, do you have any intention?"

"You're lucky enough to be here!" Ni Chong couldn't help but point at the old man and mocked.

"Hey, it's not worth listening to it!" Wang Pu pulled Ni Chong and smiled, "If you are lucky enough to be lucky, you have to have the ability to be lucky enough to be lucky."

It turned out that this Wang Pu was the reinforcement that Zhang Shun surrounded when he led the Beijing camp to support Deng Qi and Zuo Liangyu. He had suffered a big loss from Zhang Shun, and he still had lingering fears about the name "King Shun".

The old man couldn't help but feel happy when he saw that someone was willing to listen to him, and he quickly said: "The old man's surname is Ma, his name is Bu, and his given name is Baozhi. He is Master Xingming from Fangshan County, Shuntian Prefecture, and his relationship with the two Jingying adults is somewhat similar. Hometown folks.”

"Go, go, go! Who are you and your fellow villagers? I am a guard of the capital, not a member of the capital!" Ni Chong said disdainfully, "If you have something to say, talk about it, if you have nothing to do, get out!"

"There's something, there's something!" Mabu nodded quickly and said, "It's just that the thieves harassed the capital before, so they brought me here. Ma is also a person who reads the books of sages, how can he be a thief and insult the reputation of his ancestors?"

"I heard that the two adults came to suppress the bandits, so I escaped here. I came here to pay homage to the two chief military officers and inform the city of the true situation."

"Oh?" Wang Pu became interested and couldn't help but asked quickly: "What do you have to say? Let's see what you are capable of!"

Azabu was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly responded: "This 'King Shun', whose real name is Zhang, I don't know who he is, is the most cunning and cruel, and ordinary officers and soldiers cannot resist him. It's just that he has ordinary shortcomings, but he is extremely lustful."

"Now he has entered Luoyang City and captured Prince Fu's Mansion. He is doing absurd things in the Mansion every day. It is said that he will lust after all the women in the Prince's Mansion before he can rest!"

"It's just that although this man has a great reputation, he actually doesn't have many soldiers and horses under his command. In my estimation, there are only three or four thousand men."

"Nonsense!" Wang Pu couldn't help but angrily said after hearing this, "I have also fought against this 'King Shun'. He has strong soldiers and horses under his command, and there are many people and horses. Why do you say three or four thousand? The former Sichuan general Deng Qi personally led more than ten thousand elites, and together with General Chang Ping Heroes such as Bing Zuo Liangyu, Deputy Chief Bing Tang Jiuzhou and Shizhu Chieftain Ma Fengyi were all killed by him in one battle."

"If there are only these many generals, but the other generals have been famous for a long time, are they all dead weight?"
