Chapter 1112 National Thieves, Military Chaos III
Liu Yanqing had already come down from the city gate under the escort of dozens of confidant soldiers of the Liu family's generals and went to the city gate to greet the visitors.
Su Zhihuan, Fengmingshan and Lu Qian had different ranks, and Lu Qian, the largest official, had only entered the ranks of the ranks. Su Zhihuan and Fengmingshan were just ambassadors. Logically speaking, the arrival of the three of them should not have been welcomed by Liu Yanqing, who was the chief governor, who was the chief of the Jiedushi, out of the city gate.
But these 5,000 Hexi knights are really too special. I don’t know whether they can be considered as Song army! So there is no need to pay too much attention to the superiority and inferiority of the Song Dynasty officialdom.
When Liu Yanqing and his personal guards stood at the city gate, hundreds of Anxi Iron Cavalry were almost in front of him. That was an Iron Cavalry! At least at the level of Iron Harrier. Although there were only a few hundred people, they were also rumbling and the army was very powerful. Even Liu Yanqing, who had led troops in the Western Army for many years, felt his scalp numb. Although he performed poorly in the Xuanhe Northern Expedition in history and the later Anti-Jin War, when he was young, he was once powerful and brave, and had made military achievements. He also relied on his merits to climb step by step to the position of the Baoxin Army Jiedushi.
What kind of soldiers are strong and what kind of soldiers are weak, he still can't see?
The general Zheng Juzhong brought from Kaifeng Prefecture was good in Liu Yanqing's opinion. He did not have much murderous aura, but the soldiers' physique, equipment and training level were in place.
Most of the young martial officials who led the troops were warriors who participated in the Battle of Pingxia. Although they all showed their dusk energy, they were still competent in the end.
However, after Zheng Juzhong conscripted tens of thousands of Hedong prefecture soldiers to reinvigorate the new army and forcibly expanded a Kaifeng new army into eight generals, the situation of the troops declined in all aspects. Although the number of those prefectures and soldiers who were forced to recruit were large, they were all old and weak (even if the Hedong prefectures and counties were strong, they had to keep the family to protect them. How could they send them to Zheng Juzhong?), most of them had not received any military training, and they could not even use bows, arrows, swords and spears!
Moreover, Liu Yanqing, the Hedong commander, did not have enough weapons to send to soldiers of up to eight generals. Although the court had ordered the local governments in Shaanxi to step up the production of weapons and supply Hedong, Liu Yanqing, as a general of the Western Army, still did not know the thoughts of the old brothers of the Western Army. The two armies of Hexi and Shuofang rose one after another, and they had already run out of the Western Army. If the Hedong Army was allowed to rise again, would life be enough?
It would be nice to be able to deal with the broken sword and gun. Good things must be left to the six Western generals who are expanding!
Their people were looking forward to the Hedong Army, so that their Western Army could take over the territory...
But Liu Yanqing was obsessed with the wits and took over the unlucky errand of the command of the Hedong army. Now that he found something wrong, he couldn't step down, but he was unwilling to hand over his head or his full wealth. So he had to bite the bullet and toss!
In Liu Yanqing's view, seizing control of the 5,000 Hexi cavalry recruited was the only way to get rid of his own condom.
With these 5,000 cavalry, the Taiyuan rescue battle is a bit sure.
Well, Liu Yanqing is an expert in fighting. Although he knew that the eight generals expanded by Zheng Juzhong were all useless, the Liao people didn’t know! The eight generals had an army of 60,000, and the civilians were very imposing. If there were 5,000 iron cavalry in front of them to protect them, Yelu Yanxi would not have known that all the weak soldiers came. He thought it was the Western Army, Shuofang Army, and the elite troops of the Hexi Army were coming!
Due to the fact that the Liao soldiers were not good at fighting tough battles, there was still a high possibility of being betrayed.
But the problem is that Zheng Juzhong did not have enough money to buy these Hexi mercenaries.
Liu Yanqing is rich... His head is at risk of moving, and even if he goes to JD.com to borrow usury, he has to pay. But the problem is that the Hedong governor uses money to buy the morale of the army, and this crime is greater than losing it to Taiyuan.
If Taiyuan is lost, at most, he will commit suicide for fear of crime and his family can still be saved. But if he invites the army to buy morale, the crime of indiscriminate plots will be true.
Haha, maybe I'll destroy the family!
After some conspiracy, Liu Yanqing also took the initiative and just made a tough decision! He captured and killed the generals of the Hexi Army, and at the same time dispatched troops to surround the Hexi Army camp, and then forced the reorganization, and issued tens of thousands of pieces to comfort the morale of the army... Even if this matter is messed up, he will easily get rid of the crime. He will definitely not die, and it is impossible to seize the words since his origin.
Because he was seizing the military power of the barbaric military leader for the Lao Zhao family, and faithfully implementing the national policy of controlling military affairs with civility. Politically, it is 100% correct! If the Hexi army was not lost during the rebellion of Taiyuan, then the charge of "missing military opportunities and not saving Taiyuan" would not fall on him.
In this way, what else can he do? The court could not have cut him down, otherwise those lawless military leaders would be even more arrogant.
As for whether Hexi Town, which was originally loyal and loyal, would become the second Youzhou Town because of this, he would not care... If this is true, he would be the number one hero of the Western Army!
Just as he was weighing repeatedly, a long voice of order suddenly came from the oncoming Hexi army. The knights holding the flag in front of him all pulled their horses with one hand, and a row of Xiji horses neighed long, digging the soil on the ground. The brigade of iron cavalry behind also stopped one after another, and then made way for a passage. After all three or four hundred cavalry stopped, they saw the figures of Lu Qian and Fengmingshan in the passage, surrounded by more than a dozen armored guards, swaying towards here.
One missing!
Liu Yanqing was shocked when he did not find Su Zhihuan's figure.
However, seeing Lu Qian and Fengming Mountain get off the horse, strode, I breathed a little relieved.
"I'll see the handsome guy in the end!"
"I'm really sorry for the handsome guys coming out on the Latter Day, haha."
Lu Qian and Feng Mingshan were both very happy because they received the notice that they could go to Linfen to get the money!
"Two guys have worked hard all the way." Liu Yanqing also smiled and stepped forward, "Why didn't you see Su Guanjun?"
Fengmingshan smiled, "There is someone coming to Kaifeng's Tianzhu Palace, he needs to entertain him."
"The Prince's Mansion?"
"It's the original Xiping Palace!" Fengmingshan smiled, "Zhao Qianshun promoted to the King of Heaven at a place called Lahore at the end of last year, so he sent an envoy to Kaifeng Palace to ask for a title, and wanted to welcome his mother, Liang."
It turned out that after Zhang Yuan took control of Hexi, he went to Anxi and Tianzhu to contact the court through the Hexi army. The Xiping Palace in Kaifeng Prefecture became the de facto backyard of the Hexi army.
Therefore, there were also many Hexi Army members in the "Tianzhu Mission" who returned from Kaifeng Prefecture, but how did they fight Jinzhou? Liu Yanqing thought to himself, was it because Zhang Yuan also wanted to take the opportunity to peek at the battle situation in Hedong?
"These Western thieves are getting better and better!" Liu Yanqing shook his head repeatedly.
"That's not it!" Feng Mingshan smiled bitterly, "The Western thief is now a mouse falling into the rice jar... It is said that he wants to repay the virtues of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years, and to pay the annual gifts he received in the past into gold and silver, and return them to the court."
"So rich?" Liu Yanqing was shocked.
"Hehe," Feng Mingshan smiled, "No matter how rich you are, you can't compare to the court! Jieshuai, has the money you gave us?"
"It's here, it's here." Liu Yanqing suddenly turned around and shouted, "Why haven't you picked out the reserve team's wine and meat? Go quickly, pick all the pigs, sheep, and eat them all, and give them to the heroes of the Hexi Army!"
Several Liu Yanqing's personal guards thundered and turned around and ran into the city gate.
Fengmingshan and Lu Qian were stunned.
Lu Qian asked: "What? Don't let Feng Guanjun's brothers enter the city?"
Liu Yanqing smiled bitterly: "Are you still some local rich man who went to Linfen to complain? Scholars... they can't afford to mess with them, so don't bother with them."
Fengmingshan is a Liao person, and he has no idea of being gentle with literature and nobles. After hearing Liu Yanqing's words, he just smiled indifferently: "Isn't it just a thousand stone grains... We asked them for food, and they were also going north to rescue Taiyuan."
What? Go north to Taiyuan?
Liu Yanqing had no idea what the Hexi Army Knights thought, and he was a little stunned.
Lu Qian, who was standing beside him, explained with a smile: "I can't get rid of the siege of Taiyuan, and hundreds of Khitans can always take down the heads.
With this little brain, the Shuxian is most willing to give money... But now it's fine. Since the money has arrived, it's easy to say."
It's so nonsense! How can you get money? I dare not give it to you even if I have it...
Liu Yanqing thought about it, and there was no such thing as Su Zhihuan... Will it work if he killed Fengmingshan and Lu Qian? If he didn't kill and had no money to give it to others, how could he end? It wouldn't really cause a military chaos, right?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly gave a wink to one of his confidants, who quietly slipped away and went to report the letter to Zheng Juzhong.
When Zheng Juzhong received the news, he had already returned to his inner hall of the Shuaisi with Qian Gai. At this time, all preparations for the Hongmen Banquet were ready! The swordsman was ambushed, and elite soldiers were also ambushed inside and outside the Shuai Mansion. There were also four generals of the Hedong Army who had completed their equipment, and they were also driven around Hongdong County under the orders of Zheng Juzhong.
Once the Linfen City is guarded, these four generals will force Hongdong County at the same time, forcing the 5,000 Hexi Knights there to accept the adaptation.
"What should I do if one less?" Qian Gai originally disagrees with Zheng Juzhong's recklessness.
To be an official, you have to abide by the rules! If you deserve to take the blame, you have to bear it honestly. It is meaningless to struggle to die...
"It's okay!" Zheng Juzhong gritted his teeth, "It's better to keep one! I don't believe it. Those with the surname Su will not want money or officials, just do whatever it takes to do!
At worst, I can give him a strait and give him a reward of ten thousand yuan in money!”
"Where is Lu Qian and Fengmingshan?" Qian Gai frowned, "Why don't you kill me first and deduct it."
Qian Gai was a military transport envoy, and the transport envoy had the authority to supervise the army. He said that if he didn't kill, it would be difficult for Zheng Juzhong to start killing.
"Then we will detain it first!" Zheng Juzhong said, "On the crime of looting by one of them!"
"What if I get a fuss out of trouble?" Qian Gai asked.
"Hmph!" Zheng Juzhong said, "This Privy Council is just to rectify military discipline. If someone dares to incite military chaos, he will commit rebellion and will be a traitor!"
