Chapter 54: War Preheating [2 in 1](2/2)
Because at that time, in order to persuade Zimu, Song Yun mentioned two incidents: "Jinxiang Massacre" and "Changyi Chang Family Massacre". If the former is not enough to explain, then the "Chang Family" in Chang County was full of people.
Being executed made Zimu feel angry.
But it is true that after all, Zhang Qigong's move at that time was too sinister. After coaxing the head of the Chang clan "Chang Xi" to publicly criticize the Bei Bo Army, he ordered the black crow generals to kill all the Chang clan.
This is a false accusation against the Beibo Army.
Thanks to Zhang Qigong, because of this incident, the Beibo Army dropped several levels from the "Chicheng Rebel Army" in the minds of the Song people at first, so that many Song people were prejudiced against the Beibo Army - although you said
The Beibo Army's righteousness is good, but they do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Is this really what the rebels did? Or is it that you, Song Yun, are just using the banner of restoring the Song Dynasty to achieve your own ambitions?
It has to be said that Zhang Qigong's sinister strategy indeed attracted a lot of criticism from the Beibo Army.
It is precisely because of this that in order to restore the positive image in the minds of the Song people, Song Yun was eager to restore the Song State and seek help from the Qi State. In short, he did not want the Song people to mistakenly think that he was under the banner of restoring the country.
Secretly plotting something evil.
In this regard, Zimu was moved by Song Yun - or should be said to be the hero of the former Song Dynasty, the son of the scholar-bureaucrat "Xiang Ju" - "Xiang Dian" - for his bold loyalty to the Song royal family, but at the same time he was also angry at the Wei people's
Therefore, he reluctantly agreed to Song Yun's request and returned to Song Dynasty to restore the Song Dynasty.
But just like the world's evaluation of the Song royal family, among the ten children of the Song royal family, one is stupid and nine are cowardly, and Zimu belongs to the latter. Although he agreed to Song Yun's plea out of anger at the time, when he listened
It is said that the reaction of the Wei court was extremely violent. Without saying a word, he ordered the three armies of Fenxing Army, Junshui Army, and Chenggao Army stationed in Song County to attack the Song Dynasty that he restored. He was inevitably frightened in his heart.
Without joking, if Song Yun hadn't been watching closely, Zimu might have fled back to the State of Lu.
Because of this, after learning that Qi and Lu decided to send reinforcements, Song Yun quickly told Zimu the good news, lest Zimu escape back to Lu after restoring Song and make them the laughing stock of the whole world.
"General, can the armies of Qi and Lu defeat Wei?"
After listening to the good news dictated by Song Yun, Zimu inevitably asked nervously.
In fact, to be honest, Song Yun was not completely sure at this moment. After all, the Wei army and the Qi and Lu coalition had never fought against each other. How could he know which one was stronger and which one was weaker?
But at this moment, he could only swear to Zimu that the armies of Qi and Lu would defeat the Wei army - at least to appease this cowardly monarch first.
If Song Yun was extremely happy about the Qilu Allied Forces stationed in Song County, then the leader of another force in the east of Song County, Huan Hu, was not very happy about it.
Although the plan could not keep up with the changes, it was still a good move for Zhao Hongrun to let Huan Hu and his troops escape to the east of Song County.
Just as Zhao Hongrun expected, after Huan Hu fled to the east of Song County, he immediately seized "Pei County" to settle down, euphemistically claiming to be borrowing a piece of land from the Beibo Army.
In response to this, the general "Ruan Jiong" of the Beibo Army was furious and gathered his troops to attack Peixian County, trying to expel Huan Hu and recapture Peixian County.
Facing the aggressive Bei Bo army general Ruan Jiong, Huan Hu was certainly not polite and took the initiative to defeat Ruan Jiong's army. Even Ruan Jiong himself was beheaded by Huan Hu's general Chen Shou.
As a result, the Bo army was defeated.
Because of this conflict, the originally weak alliance between Song Yun and Huan Hu was immediately shattered and turned into a state of confrontation.
If Qi had not intervened in Song County this time, Song Yun's Beibo Army and Huan Hu's Suiyang Army, these two local warlord forces, might have fought each other to seize territory as Zhao Hongrun expected.
——Anyway, no matter who devours the other of these two tigers, it will be a good thing for Zhao Hongrun and even the state of Wei.
But recently, as Qi State announced that it recognized the Song State established in Tengcheng area, Huan Hu no longer dared to act as recklessly as before.
Who let Song Yun embrace Qi Guo's lap?
Although Huan Hu believed that his side was still very powerful in the eastern part of Song County and even the Bei Bo Army could not defeat him, he was not arrogant enough to compete with Qi's army.
"This time, Song Yun has received help from Qi State. I'm afraid we won't be able to live here in Peixian County forever..."
When discussing countermeasures with Chen Shou and Jin Gou, Huan Hu said worriedly.
Hearing this, Chen Shou rolled his eyes repeatedly.
It cannot be denied that Huan Hu still has a charming personality as a lord. Although he is ambitious, he is loyal enough to his own people. He can be regarded as the kind of person who "shares blessings and shares hardships". But then again, this
Si's luck is really bad: when he was in Wei State, he wanted to occupy the mountain and become the king, and became a bandit leader.
He bumped into Wei Gongzi Zhao Run; he later defected to the warlord Nangong of the Song Dynasty. Not long after, Nangong was defeated, and the Wei State sent Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang, to attack Suiyang. Now he finally took root in Peixian County in the east of Song County, and he expected to be able to stop it.
After a while, he was involved in the war between Wei and Qi. Seeing this, he might have to flee again.
Following Huan Hu from here to there over the years, Chen Shou had no time to go to Chu State to assassinate Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu and Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo to avenge his father.
Compared with Chen Shou, Jin Gou saw things very clearly.
Although Huan Hu has fled again and again over the years, in fact, Huan Hu's vision and intuition are indeed worthy of admiration. Because he has avoided the important and the trivial in these years, although he has been involved in Wei's wars from time to time, he has been able to escape in advance every time. As for its own strength, instead of weakening, it has gradually become stronger.
This is also the reason why Jin Gou continues to stay with Huan Hu. On the other hand, if Huan Hu is defeated one day, he will leave without hesitation.
This is where he differs from Chen Shou.
"Song Yun's Beibo Army and the State of Wei... to be precise, the State of Qi and the State of Wei. Which side do you plan to stand on?" Chen Shou asked.
Huan Hu scratched his hair and looked a little anxious.
It's no wonder, because no matter which side, they won't accept him.
On the Wei side, the Wei people hated him for attacking the camp of Wei Emperor Zhao Yuancai, so it was almost impossible to accommodate him. On the Qi side, Qi now made it clear that it wanted to help Song Yun's Beibo Army, and Huan Hu He also had a grudge with the Bei Bo Army. How could the Bei Bo Army tolerate him?
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that no matter which side, Wei or Qi, wins this war, Huan Hu will not get any good results.
"Is it destined that I will be on the run for the rest of my life?"
Holding his hair, Huan Hu complained with some annoyance.
In early April, as the Qi and Lu coalition forces successively arrived in the Song Dynasty - that is, in the "Tengcheng" area of Song County, the Wei Kingdom also took corresponding actions.
For example, the "Shangshui Army", an army directly under the command of Wei Gongzi Zhao Run, was transferred from the Hetao area to Song County. On the fifth day of April, it passed through Dingtao and went straight to the eastern part of Song County.
When the news spread throughout Song County, the Qilu Allied Forces, Song Yun, and Huan Hu all changed their expressions.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Wei people, the strongest army in the country was the "Wei Wu Army" of General Shao Hu, but abroad, in the land of the Central Plains, the reputation of the Shang Shui Army far exceeded that of the Wei Wu Army.
Because this is the army directly under the command of Wei Gongzi Zhao Run, it is a victorious army that has followed the former in the south and north in the past ten years and has never started a war.
Now, the Wei State has officially sent its merchant navy to Song County. This move not only means that the battlefield in the Song Dynasty will be upgraded, but also fully proves the Wei State's strong belief in the sovereignty of the Song Dynasty.
Right now, there is only one question left.
That is, whether Wei Gongzi Run, who has now become the crown prince of Wei, will personally lead this army to attack Song County!
