Chapter 312 The Battle of the Golden Lock Pass(1/2)

There are no generals in Shu, and Liao Hua is the vanguard. To be honest, this is not to look down on Taiwei Gongye Lingxing. The main reason is that this guy is used to a comfortable life and is no longer suitable for expeditions. He is only in his early forties, and there are thirty-seven

He has a wife, dozens of children, and his body has been emptied out early. He was originally a master of the six realms, but now his fighting ability, haha, is despised by women in bed. How bad can it be? Such a person leads the team

Going on an expedition, alas, it can only be said that Dong Qi has no generals to go on an expedition.

This was an era of noble clans. The person who commanded the three armies must come from the noble clans. This meant that there were very few suitable generals. If something happened, they would face disaster. Not only did this problem exist in the Eastern Qi Dynasty, but in fact

The same was true for the Yuwen clan at that time. If the Yuwen clan had not lacked a commander who could lead the army, the clan leader Yu Wendang would not have gone on an expedition, let alone be assassinated by Wu Zhonglou.

Leading the army on the expedition, Gongye Lingxing did not feel that he was incompetent. After all, he was the bravest of the three armies back then, and now he can be said to be in high spirits when going on the expedition. The reason why Gongye Lingxing is confident in this expedition is mainly because of the Qinglong Pass and Jinsuo Pass.

Two natural chasms, he believed that no matter how powerful the imperial army was, it would be unrealistic to defeat the 100,000 troops under his command with 30,000 troops and capture Qinglong Pass and Jinsuo Pass. In this case, it can be said that before the expedition

There are already results, so of course I will be confident.

It's a good thing to be confident, but this time Gongye Lingxing went a little too far. Rouran sent a bunch of seventeen-year-old twin sisters, which fascinated this guy. For this reason, he did not hesitate to take medicine every day to satisfy him.

What the hell are these sisters doing? They really can’t figure out who is playing with whom and who is serving whom. Anyway, this guy broke the military ban first and took women with him to fight.

Since ancient times, in order to improve military discipline, the army has not been allowed to bring women with them when they go on expeditions. However, Gongye Mausoleum has set a precedent, which is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall. It is a pity that this guy cannot see it himself. After all, the beauty of the gentle countryside is

The little girl made this old pervert lose himself.

From Yecheng to Jinsuoguan, a distance of only five hundred miles, a hundred thousand troops set off in a mighty manner. Along the way, the trip to Gongye Mausoleum was like a sightseeing tour, intoxicated and dreamy. It can be imagined that such a commander-in-chief

What is the military discipline of the entire army?

Fang Jinshan, the guard of Jinsuoguan Pass, is not a mediocre person. It can be said that he went up based on his true ability. This is a bit similar to Nanshan Yong. The only difference is that Nanshan Yong is lustful and Fang Jinshan is greedy for money. In addition, it has to be said that he is

Excellent general.

If we say that Nanshan Yong is greedy for money, it’s easy to say. After all, there is countless wealth in Qinglong Pass. As long as you want to make money, there are many ways to do it. Even if you don’t want to make money, as long as you cooperate with the Wu family, there will be endless money.

Money. However, Jinsuo Pass is really a golden lock. You can only get in but not get out. Not only is the pass small, but more importantly, the resources are exhausted, and there are too few ways to make money. Apart from deducting military pay and eating empty pay, there is really no

What a great move.

Money is a good thing, that's why there is a word, money can make people go around. If people want to make money, they will try all kinds of ways. But facing Qinglongguan, who is so poor that only military pay can be deducted, greedy for money

Fang Jinshan can only make a fuss about Datian County.

Qinglong Pass has a large area under its jurisdiction. In addition to Qinglong Pass itself, it also manages several counties, so it is never short of money. The leader, Nanshan Yong, is also a third-grade official, which can be said to be of high authority. However, Jinsuoguan is just a

The dry pass has no affiliation with Datian County outside. The imperial court only asked Datian County to supply Jinsuoguan. In fact, Datian County ignored Jinsuoguan at all.

Fang Jinshan, who is in the fifth grade, is trying every means to get money from Datian County. It can be said that the relationship between the two parties has been tense over the years. However, Fang Jinshan has no choice. After all, this is the only place where he can make money without deducting military pay.

.

Faced with the complicated situation of Jinsuoguan, the Eastern Qi court did not know, and of course the Taiwei Gongye Lingxing, who was in a state of drunkenness and dreams, did not know either. He led his army to Jinsuoguan in a daze.

Jinsuoguan was too small and too barren. In this case, Gongye Lingxing was unwilling to carry him at Jinsuoguan, so he directed the army to move forward. If he wanted to enjoy it, he could only enter Qinglong Pass.

The food, drink and diarrhea of ​​a hundred thousand troops is not a small number. This arduous task was given to Fang Jinshan. This guy was very worried now. This was not a brother-in-law. The barren Jinsuoguan could not complete the military orders at all.

What should I do? Fang Jinshan will not pay for it himself. The key is that the number is too big and he cannot afford to ask for it. Originally, the money and food were provided by the court, but Gongye Mausoleum is used to making money. It can be said that the geese are plucked. Since

It is absolutely impossible to pass by Jinsuoguan without making some money. Besides, the expenditure of these 100,000 troops is an astronomical figure, and it is impossible without extorting money from the place.

Blackmail, Gongye Lingxing desperately tried to blackmail the people below, and Fang Jinshan directly diverted the trouble eastward, directly pointing at Datian County. This time, Su San, who was shouldered by the Datian County magistrate and guard, did not deliberately make things difficult for the other party.

Surprisingly cooperative.

Facing Su San's cooperation, Fang Jinshan was still a little uncomfortable, so he asked his master why this phenomenon occurred.

Master Huo Junlong shook his folding fan and said: "The outside world cannot understand the affairs of the noble family. Su San is the son-in-law of the Wu family. Now the Taiwei Gongye Lingxing is leading the army to go to war. The Wu family and the Gongye family have contacts. Of course

He won't deliberately make things difficult. Besides, if he offends Gongye Lingxing, the consequences are not something Su San can bear. I guess,

This time, the Wu family will subsidize part of Datian County’s expenses. In fact, Datian County’s expenses will not be too large.”

Also, there are too many quarrels between these clans, which Fang Jinshan cannot understand, and he is not willing to understand. For this guy, taking the opportunity to enrich himself is the most important, and other things need to be put aside.

Yes, Fang Jinshan did receive instructions from the Wu family. To put it bluntly, he is a dog of the Wu family. He must do whatever the owner asks him to do. Although this matter is a betrayal of Dong Qi, for the room,

The Wu family is heaven, and betraying Dong Qi for the sake of the Wu family is nothing.

Sure enough, just after the imperial army arrived at Qinglong Pass, the Huben Army also set out to fight, but the target was not Qinglong Pass, but Jinsuo Pass. They rushed towards Datian County in a mighty manner, but there was no

Enter the city rashly to prevent the news from leaking.

Although no large army entered Datian County, General Wu Chonghu still went to Datian County to meet Su San in person.

Su San followed the Wu family to join the Tang Dynasty, and regarded himself as an official of the Tang Dynasty, fully cooperating with Wu Chonghu.

The imperial army's expedition to Qinglong Pass was a bright line to attract Dong Qi's attention, and the top priority was to capture Jinsuo Pass. As long as the Huben army captured Jinsuo Pass, the imperial army would forcibly capture Qinglong Pass, and then attack from both front and back.

, trapping one hundred thousand Eastern Qi troops to death.

Wu Chonghu said to Su San: "This time the army will capture Jinsuoguan at the minimum cost, and then attack from both front and back to eliminate the enemy. Once this army of 100,000 is destroyed, then you will be the first to do it, and I will take credit for you."

Asking for credit is just a polite word. In fact, the so-called credit still requires winning the Golden Suo Pass, and it depends on how much contribution Su San can make by winning the Golden Suo Pass. In the Tang Dynasty, one has to rely on his ability and contribution to speak for himself.

Su San asked cautiously: "General, are you prepared to seize Jinsuoguan by force, or do you want to force the general to surrender and then capture Jinsuoguan without bloodshed?"

"Of course it's best to kill without losing any blood. However, in that case, it will be quite difficult. Tell me your plan."

Although Jinsuoguan is not like Qinglong Pass where one man is responsible for the pass and no one can open it, but if you want to forcefully attack the city, the casualties will still be very large. Moreover, once the city is attacked by force, if it cannot be captured quickly, it will be quickly surrendered to the public.

Ye Lingxing realized that if 100,000 troops counterattacked, there would be big trouble.

Wu Chonghu said with a smile: "If you can win the Golden Suo Pass without losing any blood, I would like to thank you for your credit. Your Majesty will definitely reward you heavily. Please tell me your plan."

Su San said: "Jinsuo Pass is short of supplies and has always needed supplies from Datian County. The guard Fang Jinshan is particularly greedy for money. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. The entire Jinsuo Pass has contacts with us. Now there are 100,000 people ahead.

The supply of the army also needs to be taken care of by the rear, and the heavy responsibility falls on Datian County. Of course, part of the court's supplies are also placed in Datian County. But if Fang Jinshan wants to make money, he still needs to cooperate with us. We use the Wu family

Transporting supplies into Jinsuo Pass in the name of the other party, there is no problem for a thousand people to enter. After arriving at Jinsuo Pass, they will try to win over Fang Jinsuo Pass. If this guy does not agree, take the opportunity to kill him, and then cooperate inside and outside to capture Jinsuo Pass.

.”

Wu Chongji thought for a while and then said: "This plan is okay. I will send two great masters to follow you into the city and try to talk to Fang Jinshan. Doesn't he like money? Let him decide the numbers. Don't worry, the merchant will keep it all."

Merchants can be said to be the richest in the world, and merchants represent wealth. In Dong Qi, if merchants are said to be in full, it is better than the promise of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. After all, money is the most useful, and merchants are really as rich as the country. A little moisture

nothing.

A thousand tiger soldiers entered the Golden Lock Pass in the name of escorting supplies. Two great masters, one was Mu Yunbai, who appeared as a representative of the Wu family, and the other was Dongfang Xuyu, who quietly entered the Golden Lock Pass on his own.

The two great masters, one in the dark and the other in the open, ensured that the mission was successfully completed.

Using a two-pronged approach, Wu Chongji personally led 10,000 cavalry to lurk outside Jinsuo Pass. When the time came, the inside and outside would cooperate and rush into Jinsuo Pass.

To be honest, although Su San proposed this plan, he did not have a bottom line. After all, Fang Jinshan was greedy for money, which did not mean that he had no bottom line. After all, betraying Dong Qi could not be solved with money.

He will cause a lot of trouble. But with the Grand Master sitting in charge, he is still very confident.

In fact, the reason why Su San dared to do this was mainly because he bribed many people in Jinsuo Pass. He believed that even if Fang Jinshan did not cooperate, he would still be able to open the city gate and lead the Tang army into the city. Moreover, there was a great master sitting in charge, and finally

At least his life is not in danger.

The interrogation when entering the city was very strict. Su San didn't think anything was wrong about this. After all, the war was about to break out. It would be abnormal if the interrogation was too loose at this time. Moreover, if you have money, you can go around, and if you have money to manage, of course there won't be any big consequences.

question.

When entering the city, Su San was still very careful. After entering the city, he no longer had so many worries. He knew that the next step was to see whether he could persuade Fang Jinshan. In order to ensure nothing went wrong, Su San did not go directly to see Fang Jinshan.

I met the deputy general Wu Zhen first. This guy is also a descendant of the Wu family. Although he is a side branch, he still obeys the Wu family at critical moments. Moreover, Su San is also this guy's brother-in-law. It can be said that this relationship is still guaranteed.

After arriving at Wu Zhen’s home,

, Su San told Wu Zhen the plan without reservation, and finally he said: "I believe you should have received the letter from the Wu family. Your side is very important for the next action. You see the plan needs to be adjusted."

Not for a moment?"

"Yes, to be honest, the probability of persuading Fang Jinshan is very small. You can't bet on this. The bet should be on Song Zhong. This guy is Fang Jinshan's cousin and has an affair with Fang Jinshan's third aunt. This guy is in it for money.

You can risk your life, but the key is that he guards the north gate. There is no moat or suspension bridge outside the north gate. As long as the north gate is opened, the Tang army can quickly control Jinsuoguan."

"Since there is no way to persuade Fang Jinshan, we can only get rid of him. Will removing Fang Jinshan anger Song Zhong?"

"No, try not to kill Fang Jinshan before the city gate opens. After the city gate opens, whether it is Fang Jinshan or Song Zhong, it won't be a problem to keep or get rid of him. As long as the city gate opens, my men can

By taking control of the Western Camp as soon as possible, the overall situation can be decided."

Wu Zhen quickly stated his plan. For him, he must gain a sense of presence, otherwise how can he make contributions. He was born in a poor family and was not loyal to Dong Qi. He had no psychological barriers to defecting to the Tang Dynasty.

.

"Well, let's work on both sides. Tomorrow night, I will invite Fang Jinshan to a banquet and try my best to persuade him to surrender. You are responsible for wooing Song Zhong to open the city gate. In one word, at any cost, no matter how loud Song Zhong is, you will agree to him.

Open the city gate on time at midnight. My thousand soldiers will be responsible for attacking Fang Jinshan's mansion, the north gate, and the west camp. I'll leave it to you. If you can't take down Song Zhong, just kill him directly, and your army will go.

Open the city gate and as long as the Tang army enters the city, everything will be no problem."

It seems simple, but there are still many variables here, but these are not important. As long as Fang Jinshan is controlled and the north gate is opened, then it will not be a problem.

The relationship between Fang Jinshan and Su San was very normal, and he didn't care at all about this guy coming to the city. But when he heard that there were guests from the Song family, Fang Fang Jinshan could only entertain him at his house.

Although the Song family has little influence in the capital, it still has a huge influence in Qinglong Pass, Jinsuoguan and other places. It is almost the existence of the Tu Emperor. Fang Jinshan has deducted military pay and emptied his salary for so many years. Without the Wu family to take care of him, he would have been dismissed by the imperial court.

Punished. So no matter how bad the relationship between Fang Jinshan and Su San is, it will not affect his gratitude to the Wu family.

At the banquet, Su San seemed to be the master. He entered the mountain and said to the other party: "The Tang army is approaching the city, and Qinglong Pass is under great pressure. In order to win this battle, the Wu family tripled the supply to Jinsuoguan.
