Chapter five hundred and eighty second intercede for brother
This time the Huns cavalry came not to attack the city and plunder the territory to expand their territory, but to cut grass and valleys. Even so, there was no need to attack the city that had been prepared for long time. This is not the only city in Jizhou, so why bother
How about hanging from a tree?
Besides, Qiao Xiong didn't bring much dry food on this trip. If he wasted all of it on Ancheng, and finally paid a huge price to enter the city, he found that there wasn't that much food here and what he needed.
Wouldn't it be a huge waste of time? Qiao Xiong would not do such a potentially loss-making transaction.
With a new target, nearly 5,000 Huns cavalry bypassed Ancheng and continued towards the east while Kong Yuan and Xiao Zaiyin watched with puzzled expressions. This action made the two men relax for a moment.
Kong Yuan then said as if he had remembered something: "This county is going to report now and truthfully report the situation here to His Highness Prince Ji. Battalion Commander Xiao, you are also very tired. Let's take a rest first.
.No one can say whether these strange knights will come back."
Xiao Zaiyin was really exhausted. First he drove all night, and then there was a shootout and a tense city defense. He really didn't have the energy and ability to chase the strange knights. If he had to take the lead, he would be out in the wild.
Ground and infantry have no chance of winning against fine cavalry.
If they don't do it well, Ancheng County will be lost. Just like when they were in Zhenxian before, Ning Feng and Wu Dang, who have insufficient troops and weak strength, can only watch the strange knights passing by the city.
, and there is no way around it.
No matter what, no matter where the Yiqi goes next, at least Ancheng can be temporarily defended, right? Xiao Zaiyin's mission is considered completed.
...
Jicheng.
It was already the third night when I received the letter from Fei Ge.
After seeing the information, Tang Ao jumped into the crime and immediately called the guard captain Shi Lei and ordered him to call Feng Xun immediately. At the same time, he issued an order to lead troops to surround Beidi's inn. No one inside, including livestock, could
If one of them escapes, they will all be guarded. If anyone resists, kill them!
Although the intelligence did not say what these strange knights had done, Tang Ao seemed to have seen a massacre happening right in front of him.
Gongsun Guang had agreed so readily before, which made Tang Ao a little suspicious, but he didn't think too much about it. After all, he had more than 15,000 prisoners of war in his hands, and the other party would not ignore the lives of so many people.
He is his enemy. But now it seems that he has underestimated his opponent's bottom line as a human being, or he has misjudged the price of human life in this era.
Angry in his heart for Beidi's dishonest behavior, Tang Ao had to consider the chaos he might face next. The towns and counties would not have any problems because they were cautious, but there would be other counties next, would they?
Can it be defended?
The harvest season is about to come, what will be the result of these cavalry's troubles?
Will a year's hard work be wasted?
Fortunately, an agreement had been reached with the Goryeo envoy before. The Jizhou Army stated that it could send troops to the small Silla country of Goryeo to help it deal with the Japanese. In exchange, the small country of Silla was willing to help Jizhou purchase grain on its behalf. This was the biggest ration problem.
It has been solved, but one important thing is missing. Then we can consider the development of Jizhou.
Before development, Beidi, an unfriendly neighbor, must be dealt with. Turning around and looking at the map hanging on the wall, Tang Ao fell into deep thought.
"Master, Feng Xun is here." Shi Lei's voice sounded behind him, Tang Ao turned around, his expression became much calmer.
Feng Xun came as quickly as he left. Soon after, the three thousand Shanshan Guards gathered quickly, then opened the west gate of Jicheng City and left the city overnight.
In the city, Beidi Station was heavily surrounded. Soldiers broke in through the door. Soon everyone in the courtyard was arrested. Unfortunately, Gongsun Guang was not here. I think he must have known what would happen and took the first step.
ran away.
But it doesn't matter, the four gates of Jicheng are strictly controlled. As long as Gongsun Guang doesn't escape from the city, he will definitely be found.
When the incident was reported to Tang Ao, he only said one sentence, "We have to dig three feet into the ground to find him."
Then Shi Lei took the order and left. The difference was that before he left, he went to Bai Qiutong's place and didn't know what he said to him. In short, there was a trace of excitement on his face when he came out.
Bai Qiutong, Xuefei, Oyadan, Xu Qing and Shen Min have been getting together recently, seeming to be discussing something. Tang Ao naturally felt this, but had no intention of asking more. Now Jicheng
It seems to be developing rapidly, but in fact, internal and external troubles have never stopped. Now Tang Ao has no time to think about the love between his children. He only knows that his daughters will not do anything to hurt him, and that is enough.
.
Gongsun Guang hid, and Long Ya's captain Tie Long knelt outside Tang Ao's study with his arms bare and a thorn stick on his back.
Dragon teeth, as Tang Ao's eyes and ears, not only made an important figure like Gongsun Guang out of sight this time, but more importantly, the Huns cavalry suddenly sent troops, and no news was received in advance.
Regarding the fact that the Hun cavalry was coming, Long Ya finally found out. Now Tang Ao knew about it. But before that, there was no news at all. Tie Long knew he was guilty and knelt on the ground.
It's September and it's already a bit cold at night. Look at this, the first snow will fall in less than January. It must be very uncomfortable to kneel outside with your shirt off. But everyone knows this, but no one stands up.
say something.
If you do something wrong, you must accept the punishment, and if you are beaten, you must stand upright.
This was originally the rule set by Tang Ao. No matter who he is, he will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his mistakes. Only in this way can everyone remember their responsibilities and make fewer mistakes.
The Tiger Battalion Commander Xing Si and the Chariot Battalion Commander Bai Wu came out of the wing respectively. They noticed the kneeling Tie Long from the corner of their eyes, but as if they had not seen him, they walked away in a hurry. This was not their case.
They don't care about their colleagues and don't want to intercede on their behalf. But if they want to intercede on their behalf, they will only make King Ji even more angry.
In the words of Tang Ao, it is wrong to plead for someone who has clearly done something wrong. It will only give people a sense that the law is not to blame. If this is the case, the person who made the mistake is guilty, and the person who pleads is guilty.
Added guilt.
Tielong seemed not to notice the performance of the two men, and still knelt on the ground, upright. Although his body had begun to shiver due to the weather, there was no sign of retreat on his face.
"Brother." Tie Feng didn't know when he appeared, and then he knelt down beside Tie Long without saying a word. As a brother and sister who once depended on each other, the elder brother did something wrong, and as a biological sister he came to help with something.
There is nothing wrong with that and it is human nature.
Besides, Tie Feng had no intention of interceding on behalf of her brother. She was just being punished along with her brother.
It can be said that Tie Feng has become a teacher in Longyuan by virtue of his ability to understand lip reading. He teaches lip reading. Through his efforts, he has taught dozens of outstanding students, and these people are now regarded as
She was snatched away by various troops like a treasure. Seeing that the second batch of students was about to graduate, her name gradually became famous.
Tie Feng's kneeling at this time still had some weight. Perhaps it was because of her appearance that Tang Ao had originally planned to let Tie Long kneel all night, so he had to open the door in advance.
As soon as Tang Ao appeared, Tie Long straightened his back a little. He was just a slave originally. If it weren't for Tang Ao, he might still be running around and fighting for his stomach. Or, he might be dead now.
It was Tang Ao's appreciation that kept him from starving; it was Tang Ao who made him live with dignity and have a goal in life; it was Tang Ao who made Tielong marry and have children, and even had two children. It can be said that
, everything now is given by Tang Ao, even if he wants to take his life now, he will not say a word "no".
Tang Ao opened the door and glanced at the two of them. When he saw Tie Feng with wide eyes and a longing look on his face, he couldn't help but sigh, "It will be recorded as a serious offense and fined for one year.
There will be no need to meet next time."
"Thank you, master, thank you, master." Knowing that he had overcome this hurdle, Tie Long kowtowed several times. The sister on the side also kowtowed, with tears of joy on her face.
Tie Long left, but not long after, the entire Jicheng City was thrown into a panic. To make up for the mistake and capture Gongsun Guang was the most urgent task in his eyes. This time, he could not let Tang Ao down no matter what.
The sky was bright again, and the army had already gathered outside the west gate of Jicheng City. One thousand tiger soldiers and three thousand soldiers from the chariot battalion were all assembled.
They will go to Bai County as the second echelon. Since the Xiongnu can send five thousand fine cavalry as the vanguard, they may send more troops next. Being passively beaten is not Tang Ao's style. Taking the initiative to attack is his style.
Things you like to do.
Of course, even the second echelon proves that there is a third echelon. Following the three thousand Shanshan Guards, one thousand tiger soldiers, and three thousand chariot battalions, Tang Ao will personally lead the first and second firearms battalions and 20,000 reserves and
Two thousand people from the logistics army and 10,000 civilians supported Baijun.
Since the Beidi Army has not been hurt once or twice, a ruthless one will come this time. No matter what, let the other party know that the Jizhou Army is no longer the past and is now an existence that cannot be messed with. If anyone wants to use their brains,
Then just wait to be punished severely.
An army of 4,000 people set off, and the third echelon was making various preparations. Logistics support is particularly important when a large army travels, and there is no room for sloppiness. This preparation alone cannot be completed in a day or two.
This is still Tang Ao's Jizhou Army. If it had been replaced by another vassal army, the preparation time would probably be faster than ten days or eight days.
