As soon as Li Wanqing finished speaking, the tent immediately exploded. The faces of many Yangzhou generals became extremely ugly, and some even started to stare. The order talisman was their only token of dispatching troops and controlling the troops.
Soldiers and horses are also bargaining chips for them to gain profits. If the order talisman is handed over, Li Wanqing will have the final say in the Yangzhou camp from now on. Where should they go?
Almost as soon as he took a breath, Yangzhou Defense Commander He Tianxiao stood up and cupped his hands and said, "General Li, if you need the cooperation of soldiers and horses, just tell your brothers. The order is issued by the imperial court. There is no order from the imperial court.
There is no reason to hand it over. Of course, if General Li can bring it to King Jin’s decree, that’s fine.”
When He Tianxiao said this, it was clear that he was disobedient. Li Wanqing sneered in his heart, He Tianxiao said it nicely, what about cooperation and disobedience? Maybe he is still obedient now, but when the situation changes, these wallflowers will disappear in the blink of an eye.
You can wave the flag and become Zhu Changxi's pioneer. Believing in them is better than believing in ghosts. Standing up, Li Wanqing tried to calm himself down, bowed his hands and said, "Everyone, the situation is urgent, so Fu Li must
Borrowed."
After saying that, Li Wanqing stared with murderous intent. He Tianxiao didn't take it seriously. He pursed his lips and said with a sarcastic smile, "Hey, General Li, what if I don't want to borrow it? Can General Li still use it?"
Are you strong?" After saying these words, He Tianxiao moved back a few steps intentionally or unintentionally, and placed his right hand on the handle of the knife, fully alert, as if he was ready to draw the knife and fight for his life.
For a moment, the temperature in the tent suddenly dropped to freezing point. Everyone was tense and held their breath. At this time, as long as there was the slightest sound, these generals would be alarmed.
Cheng Yuan stood closely next to Li Wanqing, and a dozen soldiers also looked like they were facing a formidable enemy. With a roar, someone clapped their hands, and a dozen Yangzhou soldiers rushed in from outside the tent. Li Wanqing snorted coldly, "Very good."
, you have categorically said that you are loyal to His Highness the King of Jin, is this how you are loyal?"
Everyone was silent, some raised their faces, and some lowered their heads in shame. When He Tianxiao saw that everyone was on his side, he felt angry and spoke in a much higher tone than before, "Humph.
, General Li, you forced us to do this. We are willing to be loyal to King Jin, but you are forcing us so hard. In the end, even if you get in front of King Jin, we are not afraid."
"He Tianxiao, what are you going to do now? Are you trying to harm a certain family?" Li Wanqing sneered. If you dare to come to Yangzhou Camp, then you are not afraid of death. If you don't even have the courage, don't be like that.
The island's commander-in-chief is here.
A sinister look flashed in He Tianxiao's eyes. When things have reached this point, he has completely offended Li Wanqing. This Li Wanqing is King Jin's confidant. If Li Wanqing says something bad in front of King Jin in the future, He Tian
Akatsuki's way out?
He had no choice but to strike first. Thinking of this, He Tianxiao shrugged his shoulders and said in a dark voice, "Brothers, we are willing to be loyal to the King of Jin, but Li Wanqing is too aggressive and bullies others. It is better to capture Li Wanqing.
Open the city gate and welcome His Royal Highness King Lu into the city. Wouldn't it be a great achievement then? Brothers, if you want to be promoted and make a fortune, follow a certain family and kill Li Wanqing."
Since Li Wanqing has already broken his skin, there is no need to keep it. Anyway, if Li Wanqing does not die, He Tianxiao will die. He Tianxiao is the defense envoy of Yangzhou and one of the top figures in the Yangzhou army. He has great prestige. When he is bewitched, many people will
Go and touch the handle of the knife. Li Wanqing had already thought of this moment. He laughed and said, "Okay, let's show Li what you are capable of. Come on, who will be the first?"
When Li Wanqing's voice fell, He Tianxiao pulled out the steel knife and rushed over. But at this moment, a sudden change occurred. There was a flash of cold light, and a steel knife pierced He Tianxiao's lower abdomen from behind, and blood flowed out instantly.
, He Tianxiao stared with bulging eyes, turned his head, and pointed at the person behind him with trembling fingers, "Jin Peng...you...why...why..."
He Tianxiao's burly body lay on the ground unwillingly, and soon became silent. Behind him, stood a young man with a stern expression. This man was thin in stature, but energetic. His arms were slender, and he had
Three-inch beard. This man is Yangzhou Infantry General Jin Peng. Jin Peng suddenly killed He Tianxiao with a knife, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Those Yangzhou generals were all waiting with their eyes, you look at me, I look at you,
No one knew what to do.
Jin Peng silenced everyone with a sword. He held the bloody sword and turned around and said, "Brothers, He Tianxiao is stupid, how can you join him in his stupidity? His Royal Highness the King of Jin is wise and powerful, with hundreds of thousands of troops at his disposal.
Sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty will belong to him. If you follow He Tianxiao to rebel, you can save your lives and win glory and wealth now, but what about the future? Who of you is sure that you can defeat the King of Jin and the hundreds of thousands of Northern Jin troops? Now, you fully support Li
General, nine times out of ten, we can keep the city of Yangzhou safe and sound, but if you impulsively kill General Li and open the city gate to welcome the rebels into the city, it will be too late to regret it by then."
I have to say that Jin Peng's words are very useful. After listening to his words, the Yangzhou generals all had cold sweat on their foreheads. The secret path was very dangerous. If they had followed He Tianxiao and killed Li Wanqing just now, there would be no turning back. What Jin Peng said
It makes sense. If you support Li Wanqing wholeheartedly, with tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Yangzhou and thousands of northern Shanxi troops at home, there should be great hope in resisting the rebels.
But if you want to resist the Northern Shanxi Army, your hope is very slim. Back then, the Northern Shanxi Army could attack Wuzhou City, but how could they not take Yangzhou City? After thinking about this, the Yangzhou generals were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and shouted in unison.
He said, "General Li, please forgive me. I was confused and almost fell into the trap of He Tianxiao. I hope General Li will have more."
He Tianxiao died, so he took all the blame. Of course Li Wanqing would not take these people's words seriously. If they hadn't wanted to please both sides and wait and see, what use would He Tianxiao's rhetoric be?
?However, Li Wanqing would not be stupid enough to point it out. Since He Tianxiao took the blame and the Yangzhou generals had a chance to step down, they would just go with the flow. After all, preserving Yangzhou is the top priority now.
Li Wanqing successfully waited for the military talisman, and finally Jin Peng was left alone. The Yangzhou generals retreated, but Li Wanqing looked at Jin Peng coldly, "General Jin, give Li a reason. Don't tell me that you really want to
Be loyal to His Highness the King of Jin."
Jin Peng is determined to be loyal to the King of Jin? Just kidding, he is not from the Northern Shan Army, and he is not a soldier from Suzhou Prefecture, so why should he be loyal to the King of Jin? When Li Wanqing asked, Jin Peng did not hesitate at all, and said slowly, "Li
The general is overly worried. Most of the officials in Yangzhou City can seek refuge with King Lu, but Jin cannot. Because Jin and Meng Lian have a sworn hatred. Back then, Meng Lian killed my whole family, and Jin burned down his ancestral home. So,
If the city of Yangzhou is destroyed, either Jin will die or Meng Lian will die."
Li Wanqing observed Jin Peng carefully. After confirming that it didn't seem to be a fraud, he nodded slowly, "Okay, I believe in you, General Jin. Now I will give you a task.
If all the soldiers are picked out, they will be of great use."
Yangzhou here is located in the waters of the south of the Yangtze River. All the people from the south of the Yangtze River have been with the water since childhood, so there are many people with good water properties in the Yangzhou camp. After successfully gaining control of the Yangzhou camp, Li Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
, after the news came out that the Yangzhou camp had completely fallen into the hands of Li Wanqing, many people, especially Song Xi, the prefect of Yangzhou, were shocked, and their faces turned pale with fear.
I originally thought that Li Wanqing was an elegant man, but I didn't expect that he was so cruel and resolute in his actions. In just a short time, he actually captured the Yangzhou camp in one go.
But think about it, Li Wanqing was a figure who rebelled with Liu Guoneng back then. If he didn't have any real ability, he wouldn't have been nicknamed "Shooting the Sky." If he wasn't loyal to Tie Mo, he wouldn't have been entrusted with such an important task.
Responsible for military affairs of all sizes on Pidao. Anyone who was an official in the Ming Dynasty knew what Pidao was. It was a military fortress stationed by the Northern Jin Army in Liaodong. The Pidao Navy was not only used to threaten the Jurchen Tatars in Liaodong.
If one day the Liaodong Guanning Army of the Ming Dynasty wants to attack the Northern Shanxi Army, then Pi Island can also threaten the Guanning Army's base camp. It is precisely because of the existence of Pi Island that Tie Mo can lead the Northern Shanxi Army to wage a war in the capital.
Sure enough, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general. None of the people brought out by the King of Jin has a fuel-efficient lamp. The Yangzhou camp is under the control of Li Wanqing. Those who are obsessed with Yangzhou City have to endure it for the time being. Li Wanqing is the leader of the Jin Dynasty.
The king's best confidant, Hu Cheng, was also the brother-in-law of the king of Jin. If they were to know who dared to liaise with the rebels, there would be only one word for it, and that would be death.
Under the night, the rebels were still on the offensive. Li Wanqing stood under the sluice gate, his breathing getting more and more rapid. Anyone who dared to tell him that the rebels' combat power was low in the future would be slapped.
Li Wanqing didn't believe everything Jin Peng said. He asked people to make some general inquiries, and after confirming that Jin Peng's words were true, he boldly sent Jin Peng to the east. Now the east sluice gate has been breached by the rebels.
The boat blocked the channel, and the two sides fought fiercely near the sluice. For a while, no one could do anything about the other.
Xu Cheng rushed forward in person, but he was already beyond his capabilities and suffered many wounds on his body. If his own soldiers had not dragged Xu Cheng to the rear, I am afraid that Xu Cheng would have suffered a long time ago. The moonlight is beautiful tonight, but the red blood flow makes the moonlight
It became so terrifying that Xu Cheng's eyes were blurred when he looked at the stars in the sky. He didn't know which star in the sky he belonged to. He didn't want to die, nor did he want to die.
There was a sound of footsteps, and it sounded like a lot of people were coming. A thin man ran over with a knife, cupped his hands towards Xu Cheng and said, "General Xu, the last general of Yangzhou, Jin Peng, is hereby ordered by General Li.
We are here to rush for help, what is General Xu’s order?”
Xu Cheng couldn't help but feel overjoyed that there were reinforcements. He didn't know how Li Wanqing controlled the Yangzhou soldiers and horses, but since they were here, they had to use them. Xu Cheng propped himself up with a knife and said in a trembling voice, "General Jin, please let me know."
Your people bypassed the sluice, jumped into the water from the east bank, tried their best to destroy the boats used by the rebels, and tried their best to push the rebels to the three forks."
"Here" Jin Peng didn't say anything and led the people to the sluice. He did this not out of loyalty. As he said, everyone can surrender to Zhu Changxi. As for him, he couldn't because he and Meng Lian had a mortal enemy.
Surrendering Zhu Changxi would not end well. So the only hope is to follow the Northern Shanxi Army and fight all the way until the rebels are defeated. Although I don't understand why Xu Cheng must force the rebels to the Sanjikou, I think it is possible.
For some reason, this time I also took the opportunity to see what the capabilities of the Northern Shanxi Army were, and whether they were as brave and good at fighting as the legend says.
The night is as cold as water, and the battle is still going on. Meng Lian is indeed Zhu Changxi's confidant. When it comes to water battles, he is really a tiger in the south of the Yangtze River. In comparison, Li Jun and the Ruan brothers who were born in Liangshan are much worse. Those people
His underwater skills are good, but when it comes to commanding operations, he is no better than Meng Lian. By Haishi, the water battle had already become a stalemate. The two sides were fighting for each other in the Grand Canal, and there was no telling how much water had been deposited near the sluice.
Corpse.
Progress has been made in the east, and they are about to enter Yangzhou City, but a group of reinforcements come out of nowhere. Meng Lian can conclude that these reinforcements are not the Northern Shanxi Army, and the Northern Shanxi Army is not a dry land dragon, and can fly in the air.
Come? Sure enough, after careful inquiry, I learned that the leader of the troops was actually his old enemy Jin Peng. Jin Peng's appearance at the east sluice is not a good sign. Doesn't it mean that the soldiers and horses of the Yangzhou camp have already
Are they all controlled by Li Wanqing and Xu Cheng?
Meng Lian has been struggling. At first, he was really confident. Although there were many soldiers and horses in Yangzhou, those Yangzhou soldiers and horses were not of the same mind as the Northern Shanxi Army. They had their own interests. Driven by their own interests, they
How much combat effectiveness can it exert? But things are different now. If Li Wanqing has taken control of the Yangzhou camp, corresponding changes must be made.
The torch was shining, the boat was leisurely, looking at the river under the light, and listening to the constant sounds of fighting in the distance, Meng Lian thought carefully, quickly raised his head, and hummed, "Send the order to attack the withdrawal of the west sluice.
Half, rush to the east to support with all your strength. Don't worry about the floodgates for now. Cooperate with the troops and horses from the east to attack Jin Peng's troops as they leave the city."
There is nothing the soldiers and horses in Yangzhou can do, but Jinpeng dares to lead people out of the city. If Meng doesn't accept this gift, wouldn't he be sorry for God's gift?
Meng Lian quickly made adjustments, and the pressure on Li Wanqing dropped sharply. However, Jin Peng's troops who went out to attack the city suffered a catastrophe. The moonlight was long, illuminating the entire Grand Canal, and now there was a long queue in the canal, and small boats were passing by.
It was so tight that it blocked the sun all day long and covered the entire river. Viewed from the air, the boats connected together looked like a long, winding snake.
At first, Meng Lian's plan to destroy the ships went smoothly. The water ghosts of the Northern Shanxi Army demonstrated. The Yangzhou soldiers also took awls and special small axes and dived into the water.
The boat sank slowly. Although it did not completely sink to the bottom of the water, it was enough to block the progress of the boats behind it.
