"General Wang, is this the auxiliary soldier you found for me?" outside Jiangzhou City, Qi Zizhang said with an ugly expression.

Qibi, Zhuang Lang, Zangcai, Geshu, Hun and Weicai were each one thousand men. Originally, there were all infantry and cavalry, and half of the war assistants were each. Now they had horses and auxiliary soldiers to join the battle. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, Jiangzhou needed to provide auxiliary soldiers. Wang Yao agreed, but when he sent 6,000 people, Qibizhang saw it and his nose was crooked.

Six thousand strong men came, and they were confused. At most, only a thousand of them had limited military training during the slack season, and only hundreds of them could ride horses, which made him very annoyed.

The six thousand Ding Zhuang were led by a small number of soldiers from the prefectures and counties. The leader was a deputy general named Wang Shun. He heard that he was one of Wang Yao's dozens of adopted sons, but he should not be taken seriously, otherwise he would not have been sent to do such thankless work.

Wang Shun was annoyed. According to his previous temper, he just drew his sword and fucked someone. However, Qi Zizhang, who was a half-financial soldier, was mostly a semi-financial herdsman with relatively abundant life, and under his command were 6,000 fielders pulled from the ground, and he didn't say anything in the end.

"Forget it, I'm angry when you look like a bird!" Qi Zizhang was also a governor of Zhenwu Army. How could he not know that Wang Shun was not convinced? He didn't want to be humiliated. He just shook the whip and said, "You lead your own auxiliary soldiers, bringing food and equipment, and slowly rushing behind."

After saying that, with a greeting, six thousand soldiers led the war horses and headed north with six thousand soldiers, with only more than seven thousand horses, so it was naturally impossible to ride the whole journey.

One hundred and forty miles from Jiangzhou to Jinzhou, one hundred and ten miles are in Jiangzhou, and it can be said to be an inside marching. Qi Zizhang, with 6,000 troops, spent a day and a half to travel. By dawn on April 15, he finally left Mengkeng, and this place was less than thirty miles away from Jinzhou.

Yes, Jinzhou is the natural Linfen County, which is almost the southernmost of the counties in Jinzhou.

"The danger of Mengkeng has been overcome now. In the future, I will be able to advise the general to station troops in Mengcheng and block the danger of Jinjiang." Qi Zizhang said with emotion when the army was resting.

There were more than ten generals around him, all of whom were the old men from Zhenwu Army back then. When he thought of that dreamlike phantom, Qi Zizhang was always quite sad.

After the expedition, Li Guochang and his son, he took advantage of the situation to occupy the Zhenwu Army and received the support of the big-headed soldiers. He proclaimed himself that the Zhenwu Army would stay. The court recognized the fait accompli and granted the imperial court a royal family.

After the Chao Rebellion, Li Keyong bargained with the court and was quite unfair. So at the invitation of Zheng Cong-sei, the governor of Hedong, he joined forces with Helianduo and defeated Li Keyong's newly recruited Shatu, Tuyuhun and Tatar soldiers.

But this is just the last highlight.

Soon, because he could not give the reward, he was knocked off the stage by the big soldiers of the Zhenwu Army. The general of Shen Ce Wang Bian took office and replaced him.

The most annoying thing is that after becoming the governor of Zhenwu Army, he organized many warriors of the Qiye Army into the Yamen Army. Later, he made a fortune, and these warriors of the Qiye Army followed him against him, and they had become the martial artists of the Tang Dynasty!

There was no military pay on the grassland before, why didn’t you make a fuss? After only a few years of military pay, I forgot that I was a “simple” grasslander?

Forget it, it's all gone, it's meaningless.

Qi Zizhang was not afraid of Li Keyong because he had an advantage in terms of past achievements. However, his family knew his family's affairs and his current strength was incomparable to the time when he was in charge of the military army. Li Keyong's strength was much stronger than that in the past and was no longer comparable.

Now that Guanbei is unified, it is difficult to have the opportunity to rise unless General Shao dies young and dies in the middle way. Now, he can only fight for him and slowly accumulate merit. The Qibi family was always the lord of Bai Daochuan and was hereditary, which is equivalent to a Han family. The descendants can still become officials. If they can get another title, it would be safer.

After the rest, the generals left Qiezhang's side and gathered soldiers everywhere.

Pedestrians have appeared on the post road in the distance.

Today is the 15th day of the market. Many people in Jinzhou go out to buy and buy, and the defense is relaxed.

"It's been this chaotic era, and the people in the river are still going to the market safely..." Qi Zizhang shook his head and laughed.

Hezhong has not experienced military disasters for many years? He can't figure it out. Could it be that it has been hundreds of years? Well, today I will let you have a memory and know the consequences of the serene and military play.

At the order of Qi Zizhang, the soldiers led the horses for a while, and then got on the horse and jogged.

The pedestrians on the road looked at them in horror. Although these people were wearing rough heads, they were wearing furs and holding bows and knives. Where did the foreign soldiers come from?

The disputes among the upper class of the feudal towns did not pass to the bottom, and the people were often the last group of people to know. At this time, most of them were shocked, except for the shock.

The war horses stirred up the smoke and dust, and thousands of riders shouted and neighed, and the bow tips held in their hands were almost wet with sweat.

Outside the Jinzhou city gate, there were endless carriages and horses entering and leaving.

I don’t know which big family bought dozens of cars of vegetables and vegetables, which blocked the city gate tightly. The guards took the benefits and were too lazy to care about them, so they watched the fun.

The land of the four prefectures in Hezhong Town was not from the court or the governor, but from their warriors.

The vassal states outside will hit you and I will hit you, killing you and killing everyone, everyone is dead. Is it interesting? The martial artists of Hezhong don’t want to hit outsiders, but outsiders don’t want to hit us. More than one million people in the thirty-seven counties in Hezhong are the source of food and clothing for everyone, and they are counting on good days for generations, and even the Wang family dare not take away everyone’s benefits.

The governors are the heads, the generals and the governors are second, and the lower-level warriors can also become superiors. How great is this!

The Wang family is really good. If you know that everyone’s suffering can tick everyone’s itch, then you will continue to protect the Wang family. If the Wang family “does against the rules”, you may have to change someone to become the governor.

The iron-torn Yajun and the flowing waters of the Jiedushi, everyone depends on each other, prosper and lose together, and this is true.

The sound of horse hooves sounded from the south.

The pedestrians on the post road dodged one after another, and some even wanted carriages and fled directly to the side of the road.

"Where did the cavalry come from?" The soldiers guarding the city were a little confused: "The envoy just left the city to hunt yesterday? Are you back today?"

The cavalry is getting closer and closer.

On the post road, in the wheat fields and beside the woods, one after another, with a bow in his hand, and a sword hanging beside the saddle, a boned body, a ferocious face, and a loud shout.

"Swoosh! Swoosh!" Some archers came out from the crowd, riding bows and screaming at the city gate.

"Someone must be causing trouble!"

"Close the city gate quickly!"

"Isn't it okay for you to go out and go back to hunt?"

"Which brothers are in trouble? Why don't you say hello in advance?"

"Closing the city gate, bringing you guys, let's follow the city to scoop up."

"Are you the fuck blind? That's a thief, close the city gate!"

The gatekeepers were in chaos, and the officers kicked and beat them, forcing them to close the city gate.

But the door was too messy, and a donkey cart full of feces capsized on the ground, and the smell suddenly became stink. Several soldiers slipped to the ground and their faces were directly pressed on.

The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and the arrows became denser. Seeing that it was too late, the soldiers guarding the gate scattered and fled into the city.

"Boom!" After the small half of the city gate was directly knocked open, the cavalry of Wei Cai's troops took the lead and rushed into the city of Jinzhou.

The cavalry rushed into the city pulled out melee weapons, slashed repeatedly, killing the crowd that had not escaped before.

Some people immediately picked up bows and arrows and shot at places where the crowds gathered, causing chaos in the city.

Hundreds of riders crossed them and rushed to the vicinity of the barracks.

More than a thousand Jinzhou soldiers had just left the camp, but before they could complete the entire team, they were directly swept away, and the defeated soldiers filled the alleys.

There were also many soldiers who were pretending to return home. After hearing the news, they were about to return to the camp. When they saw that the bandits had entered the city, there were only one or two thousand cavalrymen. Is there a thousand infantry soldiers? They were so scared that they took off their military uniforms and slipped back home.

Qi Zizhang rushed in with a large group of troops.

The knights dismounted one after another, gathered together as quickly as possible, and rushed to various key points in the city.

Someone from the prefecture government office went to destroy the enemy's command center.

Everyone in the camp went to the camp, and there were few people who were fighting stubbornly after hearing the shouts of killing.

There are also people going to the other three city gates, and there are scattered cavalry cruising outside the city to intercept messengers who have left the city.

"After controlling the whole city, I immediately searched for all the horses, mules, donkeys that I could ride, and I wouldn't dislike it." Qi Zizhang ordered loudly: "How much is found, all are gathered."

"Abide by the order!"

Qi Zizhang did not plan to stay in Jinzhou for how long.

Today, the horse will be galloping for thirty miles. After a short rest, the horse will still have strength. If you can find some horses and mules, you can continue to go north. First, Gu Xi's horsepower will move slowly for a while, then march quickly and continue to rush north.

You can also collect horses from the post stations you encounter along the way. A large number of carriages gathered outside the city just now, and there were already soldiers unbuttoning the horse and leading the horse away.

Soldiers are more powerful than speed, so Qi Zizhang certainly understands this truth.

By the afternoon, the situation in the city had stabilized roughly.

Qi Zizhang sat directly into the prefecture.

"Headed"

"Call me to the Qingdao Claw and chop the envoy." Qi Zizhang glared and said angrily.

"clear……"

"Forget it, just talk about it."

"The head man captured nearly two thousand Jinzhou soldiers and many food, grass and equipment."

"Have you all been resting enough?" Qi Zizhang nodded, grabbed the two Hu cakes on the table, stood up and walked out, and said, "After you resting enough, let's go with me."

Leave a thousand people to defend the city, watch the prisoners, and wait for the auxiliary soldiers of Jiangzhou led by Wang Shun to come and accept it. This was a decision made by Qi Zizhang after careful consideration.

I just counted it and found that there were about 8,000 horses and mules, carrying 5,000 people northward, and it should be able to maintain a certain marching speed.

There is no need to bring too much food and grass, just grab it. Anyway, the counties in Jinzhou are caught off guard and have no solid walls to clear the fields, so it will be enough.

The most important thing now is speed, and you must not delay it for a moment!

Before three o'clock, after all the matters were arranged, Qi Zizhang kept his eldest son Qi Zixuan to guard the city, led five thousand cavalry to leave the north gate.

They marched along Fenshui Avenue and arrived at the countryside several miles south of Hongdong County at night. At that time, the county town had been closed, but the defense did not seem to be tight.

"Don't attack Hongdong County." I just replenished food and arrows in Jinzhou. Qi Zizhang's mind was very clear and knew that time was the most precious now.

"Leave a thousand people to camp on the spot and take care of the horses. The rest of the people will follow me!" Qi Zizhang ordered: "Horse needs rest, but people do not. Let's go to the ancient city of Hongdong Town tonight to rest."
Chapter completed!
