Jizhou is its own fiefdom, and it will also become its own land of dragon prosperity in the future. How can it allow disobedient people to hold important positions?
Tang Ao is willing to do things that people who know they are not single-minded still use to show their broad mind. The so-called doing extraordinary things in extraordinary times will bring political power from the barrel of a gun. The kind of people who use words and deeds to influence others.
Let's talk about it later, now having a stable home is the most important thing.
That is to say, it was decided to seize power by force. The cavalry and infantry under his command have made arrangements and have already planned. They will take action tonight, and then Tie Long, Xu Hun and others who have already entered the city will open the city gate from the inside.
It's a pincer attack from inside and outside.
Plans had been made and the generals had received military orders. The arrival of the carrier pigeon forced Tang Ao to change his previous plan. After learning that Jizhou General Soldier Hou Difu wanted to send troops to deal with him, Tang Ao decided to use his plan and predict the outcome.
Set up an ambush and take them out.
Regarding Tang Ao's plan, Zeng Tong and Han Ce raised their hands in approval, as if they were afraid that Tang Ao would regret it, and kept saying the wise words of King Ji.
This is not to blame the two of them. When Tang Ao decided to take the initiative before, they were all opposed to it, and the reason given was very simple, that is, the teacher was out of nowhere.
In ancient times, when sending troops, it was very important to have a name. If not, it would be easy to be reviled by the world and lose the support of the people.
When Tang Ao first came to Jizhou, he had to establish his own authority and show a reasonable side. If you are constantly fighting and killing, others may surrender to you on the surface, but what will they think in their hearts?
It can be seen that this will eventually become a potential threat. It will not show up at ordinary times, but it will definitely explode over time, which will be a very dangerous thing.
The officials of Jicheng and the army did not say that they would not obey the leadership of King Ji, so they sent troops to deal with them. This is the result of the unnamed division. Once the matter spreads, I am afraid that there will be people in Daqian's court to impeach King Ji.
Tang Ao.
Of course, with Tang Ao's character, he is not afraid of what some people will say. But once the matter spreads, it will affect Tang Ao's reputation, and he will be scolded as a thief. In this way, it will
No one will come to seek refuge with Tang Ao again, which will be very detrimental to the future.
But Tang Ao seems to have made up his mind, and despite the objections of Zeng Tong and Han Ce, he cannot change it. Now, Zhou He and Hou Difu are willing to kill Tang Ao, so they have a legitimate reason.
, it is tantamount to being a famous teacher, how could the two of them be unhappy.
Seeing the happy expressions of Zeng Tong and Han Ce, Tang Ao shook his head helplessly. He had decided that if he had time, he must change the minds of these two people. Since ancient times, those who achieve great things rarely care about others.
Views, and only the truly weak will cry out for injustice.
Just for the sake of a reputation, he could only wait for others to attack first, and then watch such fearless sacrifices and losses. Tang Ao could not do such a thing.
The good thing is that they only need to wait one night, and without losing anything, they can find the main force of Jicheng City for a decisive battle, which Tang Ao can accept.
The new military attack plan was finalized, and several generals went down to prepare. Until the Ji Cheng Army takes the initiative to attack tomorrow, they can let the other side have a good taste of the power of the Ji Wang Army.
.....
Xu Teng, the deputy commander-in-chief of Jizhou, is the trusted right-hand man of Hou Difu.
Last night, Xu Teng fell asleep with a pile of money in his arms, so that in his dream, his face was full of excitement and excitement.
A full one hundred thousand taels of silver, this was what Hou Difu rewarded Xu Teng. In front of the large amount of silver, he immediately issued a military order to Hou Difu, saying that he would lead three thousand soldiers to severely damage King Ji's convoy and capture King Ji Tang Ao alive.
Naturally, Tang Ao is the prince now and cannot be killed easily. Otherwise, the emperor will have no way to deal with him. But there is no problem in capturing Tang Ao alive and then putting him under house arrest. On the surface, Ji Wang Tang
Ao is in Jizhou, and this is also his fiefdom. But in fact, he is just a puppet. The real decision makers are Zhou He, Hou Difu and others. They can continue to live a happy life like their own emperors.
Xu Teng crawled out from the pile of silver. After breakfast, Xu Teng put on his armor under the service of his own soldiers. Three thousand soldiers had already prepared, and everyone got the benefit of the two taels of silver. According to the general
Binghou's underworld promised that once they defeated King Ji's convoy, each of them would receive three taels of benefits.
This is equivalent to five taels of silver in the account. For Jizhou soldiers who are accustomed to poverty, this is already a large amount of income. At that moment, each one was howling like a little tiger, thinking about having a good time on the battlefield.
Show off.
Xu Teng came to the military camp and saw the high-spirited looks of the soldiers. He felt happy and felt that the military morale was available. He waved his hand and three thousand soldiers walked towards the city gate. Although the queue was not neat at all, these
The soldiers were all tall, short, fat and thin and of different ages. Even though the numbers were there, they were still very powerful. This caused the people in Jicheng to hide in their homes and not dare to go out. They were people who had been tortured by the army, and the army was often dispatched.
, will cause waves of panic. These people are like bandits, they want everything they see and rob them of everything they see.
I just hate that Jizhou is too far away from Daliang and very poor, so the emperor doesn’t pay much attention to it. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so the people here can only suffer. Over time, it has become a habit, that is, when the army travels
, you must hide at home and never go out.
Xu Teng led 3,000 troops out of the city. Tie Long, who had been secretly monitoring their actions, released another carrier pigeon, and then separated with Xu Hun to keep an eye on the Yamen of the Prefecture and the General Military Mansion respectively.
land.
After only fifteen miles of walking out of the city with three thousand soldiers, Xu Teng's brows furrowed deeply. He found that the army's formation had become chaotic, and many people had even begun to fall behind. Many people were just out of convenience.
Dragging the spear as a weapon to the ground.
The Jizhou soldiers, who usually had difficulty eating enough and rarely trained, revealed their weak and powerless side.
"General, why don't you rest for a while before leaving." General Zhang Hu also saw this scene and whispered a suggestion.
Zhang Hu, as his name suggests, is the only bloody general in the entire Jizhou Army. He usually brings some soldiers for training, and all his monthly silver salary is used as subsidies.
use.
Even King Zhong knew his name. He even thought about transferring this person to Liaozhou to be with him. Later, he was persuaded by others, saying that in such a big Jizhou, there must always be someone.
Only a general who can fight is good, so he was retained.
The general situation is such that although Zhang Hu has extraordinary military strength and ambition to train troops, he cannot get the consent of the two chief and deputy commanders, Hou Difu and Xu Teng. Over time, he has lost his ambition to make progress and rarely expresses any opinions.
.
If he hadn't seen that the soldiers were really exhausted, if this continued, even if they encountered King Ji's convoy, they would be unable to accomplish their mission and would not be able to complete their mission, so he had to speak cautiously and tentatively.
In normal times, Zhang Huzhi's words would not be taken into Xu Teng's eyes, but now he has an important mission and the soldiers have walked for another fifteen miles. They are indeed tired. After thinking about it again and again, he finally decided to let the soldiers
They rested for half an hour. "Okay, let me tell you to rest where you are, but you can only rest for half an hour. Otherwise, if we are discovered by King Ji's motorcade, something serious will happen."
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." Zhang Hu expressed his gratitude on behalf of the soldiers. Then as soon as the order to rest in place was given, the three thousand soldiers stopped with a roar, and then several people sat down together.
.
The Jizhou Army suddenly stopped advancing, and Xiaobai in the sky quickly returned to Tang Ao who was leading the team forward.
"Stop?" A look of surprise flashed across Tang Ao's face.
"Your Highness, could they have discovered our plan?" Shi Lei, the guard captain on the side, said with some suspicion after hearing this.
"No." Tang Ao shook his head. With Xiaobai and the others patrolling in the sky, it can be said that not even a bird can get close to them. How could his actions be discovered? It must be that something else happened.
Bar.
"Ignore them for now, we will continue to act as planned." Tang Ao had no intention of changing the plan, mainly because it is a bit late to change now. After all, in the era without radio, it was very difficult to notify others.
Not only did Tang Ao have no intention of changing his plan, on the contrary, he also asked people to raise the banner of King Ji, and continued to approach the Jizhou Army by beating gongs and drums.
His Highness Prince Ji's vanguard convoy made a lot of noise, which was heard by the Jizhou scouts who were sent to investigate the situation. The news soon reached the ears of Xu Teng, who was still resting.
It was originally planned to only rest for half an hour, but when the army really stopped, no one was willing to move anymore after everyone took a rest, so that the army has not yet started to move forward.
"What? King Ji's motorcade is less than six miles away from us?" Xu Tengchen stood up from the ground after hearing the news.
"It's King Ji's vanguard convoy. There are about forty carriages." The young scout who came to report added.
"The vanguard convoy is also a convoy. I didn't expect them to be so fast and split up the troops. Otherwise, let's just eat the vanguard convoy first and then talk about it. Haha, give the order for the army to set off. Then tell the soldiers that the target is
The money is right before your eyes."
Under the stimulation of Yinzi and Xu Teng's order, the Jizhou troops became energetic again, stood up one by one, began to line up, and accelerated towards the front.
