Chapter 154 Guanzhong Soldiers(1/2)
Master Gao was very suspicious as to why he came to Xizhou.
Looking for a job?
The news told Liu Chengzong that he had become a migrant worker.
He quickly returned to Shilou, and Gao Yingen, who was besieging the city, learned of this.
He stared blankly for a long time and then said slowly: "Liu Shizi is so arrogant. It's too late for everyone to hide from the Shaanxi officers and soldiers. It's better for him to go back and fight with them."
Gao Yingxiang was noncommittal about this.
Crazy may be a little crazy.
But if Gao Yingxiang was twenty years old, would there be two thousand frontier soldiers willing to sacrifice their lives for him?
Even if a mosquito bites him, he will mount an artillery fire, not to mention the army going to deal with his parents.
"It's useless to say these things. If Liu Shizi wants to go back to Shaanxi, let him go back. We entered Pingyang Mansion through the road he took. He disabled both guards. The guards here can't stop us."

As he spoke, Gao Yingxiang thought of his work and said: "When you see a bronze statue on the road, remember to carry it away. Liu Shishi asked me to take the craftsman team with me and asked me to do two things for him."
"What's going on?"
"The craftsmen team entered Pingyang Mansion to cast cannons. If the Pingyang Guards' flag army surrenders, they must be led by Hu Sanhuai."
Gao Yingen was so anxious that he scratched his head: "This Liu Shishi is so clever, why doesn't he recruit his own troops, and asks you to recruit them for him? Soldiers need food!"
Soldiers need to eat food, and everyone needs to eat food.
The better the soldiers, the more cost-effective it is for the leader to eat food.
The Pingyang Flag Guard Army is the best source of troops for Pingyang Mansion.
"This business is not a loss. We are the only ones left in Pingyang Prefecture and Fenzhou Prefecture. Liu Shishi returns to Shaanxi. How much food is there? He has set up a stockade in Luliang Mountain."
Gao Yingxiang didn't care at all, he just said: "The leader of the lion camp's work sentry learned from me. He is a man who can forge red barbarian cannons. He Xin can shoot blunderbuss. Let us take this opportunity to let us stupid craftsmen learn from him."
."
"Any blow with a knife can miss the mark."
On the other side of Yan'an Prefecture, Luo Rucai is trying his best to move towards Shanxi.
Last year, after Li Bei's battle, Luo Rucai received a lot of armor from Liu Chengzong, armed the core members of the team, and then began to recruit troops like crazy.
Hungry people are begging for food and bandits are roaming around, and they will not refuse anyone who comes.
The team once swelled to nearly 4,000 people in the winter.
Winter is a rare opportunity for many leaders to train their troops.
But this is not the case for Luo Rucai.
His men froze to death and many died of illness. Food and grass were limited and unevenly distributed. Every day, his men complained, cursed and even attacked each other.
In the end, Luo Ru was really upset, so he took his aunts and hid in another fort that he had captured, and asked Yang Chengzu to lead his team.
Later, there was internal strife in the team, and he fought three battles in a row with himself.
There are only 400 people left at the beginning of spring.
Luo Rucai was very happy. He looked at the remaining more than 400 fat and strong troops, and praised Yang Chengzu for his skill in leading the troops. He went out to grab a beautiful mother-in-law to warm Yang Chengzu's bed.
For him, since he finds this matter very annoying and leaves it to his friends to do, no matter how his friends handle the matter, it is his own problem. No wonder his friends.
Seeing the frost and production reduction after the beginning of spring, others said that Liu Chengzong had entered Shanxi, so he wanted to follow him to Shanxi.
But he felt that it would be too shameful to bring only 400 brothers to join the fourth-ranked leader, so he circled around northern Shaanxi again. It took him almost a month to pull the team back to more than 2,000 people.
But then he discovered a problem.
Why is the transfer of thieves in northern Shaanxi so strange?
Waves of thieves lined up from Yichuan to Yanchuan, and from Yanchuan to Qingjian.
When I asked them what they were doing, they didn't tell me. Some people even handed me a small iron sign.
I asked the literate people in the team and they said the first two characters meant "avoid death."
Luo Rucai was frightened. He wondered what kind of cult this was. If he kept the sign, he would not die. Isn't this lying to fools?
I tried my best to restrain my subordinates on the spot and not allow the brothers to have contact with these Xin Bailian.
Winter has just experienced internal strife, Luo Rucai doesn't want the team that has just been united to have another internal strife because of the cult.
The White Lotus Sect is so terrifying. The peasant army like them is much worse than those professional rebel leaders in instigating the people.
Luo Rucai did not dare to go to Yanchuan to find Liu Chengzong, so he had to leave the near and seek the farther south, and met the defeated King Hun Tian, as well as the Yan'an general Ai Mu behind them.
In a hurry, the team was rushed to pieces, and Luo Rucai led the remaining defeated soldiers to flee westward. He just wanted to escape back to Yan'an Fucheng.
Unfortunately, Aimu also only wants to go to Yan'an Fucheng to take office.
When Liu Chengzong left Yanshui Pass, it was already the end of March. He said goodbye to Fu Renxi, the commander-in-chief who escorted him out of the country, and Wei Qian'er led the troops to leave Tangqi, and the army headed west.
Not far away, I heard from my subordinate Tangqi that there were dozens of corpses in the valley ahead, as well as weapons and armor scattered everywhere.
This immediately made Liu Chengzong feel that something was unusual, so he quickly led a team to see it and asked the sentries to take precautions around it.
Weapons and armor scattered on the ground?
In this year and in Shaanxi and Shanxi, this situation will not happen after the war.
Regardless of whether it is a battle between the peasant army and the landlord regiment, or an internal strife between the peasant army, no matter which side wins, the battlefield will be cleaned, and the battlefield must be cleaned extremely clean.
Not even a piece of armor or a cotton shoe will be left behind.
They have access to everything.
After investigation, we found another battlefield along the valley to the south. The battle took place yesterday.
These fallen men were being pursued.
Many people are not dead yet, but they are seriously injured and unable to speak. They are not far from death.
Only two of them could be rescued. They were wearing border army armor and bled a lot, but their wounds were not fatal. In other words, they fell down from exhaustion.
Li Wanqing said: "That one seems to be Yang Chengzu."
Liu Chengzong recalled the name carefully, but without any impression, he asked: "Who is Yang Chengzu?"
"Cao Cao's friend, that guy was too lazy to lead the team, so he threw the team to Yang Chengzu." Li Wanqing said, shook his head, his eyebrows were full of caution: "They will not be separated, general, this should be Cao Cao's team."<
/p>
The doctor removed Yang Chengzu's armor, and even Liu Chengzong who was standing aside couldn't help shouting "Hero!"

This man's upper body was covered with wounds. After wiping away the blood, his skin was covered in bruises and bruises. There were small wounds everywhere, and he didn't know how many times he had been hit by weapons through gaps in his armor.
There are only two major wounds that are most important. One is on the head, where the helmet was dented by the bone and the skin of the head is damaged; the other is on the inner side of the left arm, which is a place that cannot be protected by the full-body armor and iron armbands.
A wound was cut by a knife.
The doctor said that the injury on the arm was older than other parts, and it had been bandaged. It should have been two days.
Liu Chengzong's doctors don't know whether he can be rescued. All they can confirm is that Yang Chengzu's chest is still rising and falling, and he is not dead yet.
But soon, Liu Chengzong knew who was hunting Luo Rucai.
Yang Yao, who was guarding the valley, sent someone to report: "General, dozens of cavalry are coming from the official road to the west. The flags are from the army."
Officers and soldiers.
The officers and soldiers who appeared here immediately reminded Liu Chengzong of Yan'an Prefecture's new general Ai Mu.
This means that as few as a thousand or as many as three thousand officers and soldiers are within a hundred miles.
"Surround them, and no one can let them escape."
The outpost immediately deployed a frontal ambush. The left and right outposts were like two fists, slowly spreading out from the two wings. At the same time, the left outpost continued to move forward, and the rear outpost took up the left wing position, and then completed the encirclement.
Not knowing the location of the officers and soldiers, Liu Chengzong did not allow them to use artillery, and directly surrounded them with infantry and assault by horse soldiers in the middle.
The officers who were surrounded quickly formed a formation, and then realized that the rebels were outnumbered. They loudly ordered in Qin opera to try to break out. Four attempts to break out failed, and the soldiers under their command were captured one by one. In the end, they had no choice but to surrender.
Before the auxiliary soldiers could escort the surrendered troops over, Yang Yao had already returned on horseback and reported: "General, they are soldiers from Guanzhong!"
When Yang Yao said this, there was a bit of unspeakable hatred on his face.
He is very jealous.
This group of Guanzhong soldiers are all well-fed, equipped with armor and weapons, and they stay near Xi'an Prefecture all day long.
Why are they so hungry in Guyuan Camp that they can’t live without mutiny?
There were a total of forty-four officers and soldiers. During the battle, two of them were hit in the cheek by arrows and died. The remaining forty-two laid down their weapons and surrendered.
Liu Chengzong asked people to watch the surrender and called the leading management team for questioning.
He was a man in his thirties, with a big beard like Wang Wenxiu. He looked like a veteran, and there was a scar on his mouth.
