Gao Qiu fled back to Daming Mansion. One hundred and fifty thousand of his troops were either captured, scattered, or killed. Only about 30,000 people fled back to Daming Mansion.
In addition, Daming Mansion also has some soldiers and horses, so it still has the strength to make a stop.
Gao Qiu's letter asking for help was quickly sent to Kaifeng Mansion. In the letter, Gao Qiu described Wang Lun as a monster with a bunch of evil ghosts under his command, which was very scary, and asked for reinforcements.
After hearing that Wang Lun's general Hu Yanzhuo used a 3,000-horse formation to disrupt the army's formation, Cai Jing suggested that Xu Ning, a master of the Imperial Golden Spear Squad, be sent to lead the Golden Spear Squad and 3,000 hook and sickle soldiers to quickly reinforce Daming Mansion.
In addition, the news also spread to other states and counties, and the magistrates of nearby states and counties were frightened. Some of them closed their city gates tightly, while others quietly contacted Wang Lun and wanted to seek refuge.
Gaotangzhou.
Magistrate's Yamen.
The name of the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture is Gao Lian. They are the uncles and brothers of Taiwei Gao Qiu. They are both from the Gao family. Because of Gao Qiu's relationship, he became the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture. He began to study heresy when he was young, and he also has some abilities.
, can also lead troops to fight.
When I got the news of Gao Qiu's defeat, I was extremely anxious.
The Gao family is entirely supported by Taiwei Gao Qiu. If Gao Qiu has three strengths and two weaknesses, he may not be able to secure his position as prefect, and he also wants to be promoted.
"Pass an order from this prefect to recruit 10,000 warriors to reinforce Daming Mansion."
"Instruct three hundred flying divine soldiers to quickly prepare artifacts and follow me on the expedition."
Gao Lian was also a man of action. He summoned all the governors under his command to take charge and establish jurisdiction. He led 10,000 troops and rushed to Daming Mansion.
"Master Magistrate, Wang Lun has strong soldiers and horses, and even Lord Taiwei was defeated unfortunately. How can we be Wang Lun's opponent with our tens of thousands of poorly trained soldiers and horses in Gaotang Prefecture?"
There was a counselor next to Gao Lian who advised Gao Lian. In his opinion, these few soldiers and horses are not just serving food to others.
"Wen Huanzhang, you don't know something. The prefect relies not on these more than 10,000 soldiers, but on these 300 flying divine soldiers."
Gao Lian was not wearing an official uniform, but was wearing a Taoist robe, with the Tai'a Sword hanging on his waist. He looked proudly at the three hundred flying magic soldiers on the left and right.
"And my ten thousand people are just porters to transport my secret weapon."
"No matter how many soldiers Wang Lun has, how can he defeat my Taoist skills?"
"Hahaha~"
Gao Lian is so proud, do you think this world can be solved by force?
A strong general is brave, but once the old Taoist skills come out, you will be finished!
Gao Lian's three hundred flying divine soldiers were incredible. They were carefully selected from all over the Song Dynasty. They were all strong men over eight feet tall, with broad shoulders and round waists, and a body of brute strength.
Gao Lian also fed these three hundred flying magic soldiers with secret medicine, stimulated their physical potential, and trained them to become death warriors. They were only controlled by Gao Lian, and they had strong fighting ability and were not afraid of death.
It’s Gao Lian’s trump card!
The counselor beside Gao Lian was named Wen Huanzhang. He was a strategic general and talented, and he knew many officials in the court. For example, Taiwei Su Yuanjing was his classmate and friend, but for some unknown reason, he was not reused by the court.
He had been living in seclusion in Anren Village and working as a teacher.
When Gao Qiu was leading the army, Wen Huanzhang was finally recommended by the ministers of the court and served as Gao Qiu's staff officer.
However, Gao Qiu did not listen to Huanzhang's suggestion and disliked the man's noisiness, so he sent him to Gaotang Prefecture.
Wen Huanzhang took a look at the three hundred flying magic soldiers and found that they were really different from other soldiers and horses.
The three hundred flying divine soldiers are eight feet tall, with disheveled hair, wearing a gold-coated copper devil mask, holding an oversized iron hob, wearing a bronze heart-protecting armor, and carrying a large iron hob on their backs.
The gourd moves in neat steps, like a cold-blooded weapon without emotion.
I don’t know what kind of medicine is sold in the iron gourd.
Another 10,000 soldiers escorted many iron cages, covered with black cloth, so it was not clear what was inside.
But Wen Huanzhang had a vague feeling that there seemed to be something that was trying to eat people inside those iron cages, so anyone who didn't mean to do so would stay away and not dare to get close to the carriage.
"It's great that the magistrate is confident. He also has a plan. Maybe he can distract Wang Lun and divide his troops."
As a counselor, Wen Huanzhang naturally had to make plans for Gao Lian. At this time, he was from the Song Dynasty. From his standpoint, Wang Lun was a rebel.
"Oh, what's the plan?"
Although Gao Lian didn't care, with the secret weapon in his hand, defeating Wang Lun was not a problem.
However, being idle on the road is also idle, and chatting can relieve boredom.
"There is a little Xuanfeng Chai Jin in Cangzhou. To the Jianghu people, this man is a good man who is generous with his wealth. But to the imperial court, he is a rebel. When Wang Lun occupied Liangshan, this man supported him. Later Liangshan did
After he grew up, Chai Jin often gave money and food to people, and he had close contact with Wang Lun, so he can be regarded as Wang Lun's nobleman."
"According to law, this Chai's crime is extremely heinous. If we capture this person and threaten Wang Lun."
Wen Huanzhang actually traveled around the court and the world, and had already found out the relationship between Chai Jin and Wang Lun.
After Wang Lun became king, he had already been given an official position. However, Chai Jin was still reluctant to part with his family business in Cangzhou, so he hesitated and asked Zhu Dian to help Wang Lun. He stayed in Cangzhou to observe the changes in the world.
"Oh, that's it. Then what are you waiting for? Let's go directly to Cangzhou and capture Chai Jin alive."
Gao Lian nodded and took action immediately. As for Chai Jin's elixir book and iron certificate, and the descendants of Zhou Shizong Chai Rong.
Haha, it has been more than 150 years since the founding of the Song Dynasty. There are still a few people in the world who remember you as a descendant of the previous royal family, and you have lost public support for a long time.
With the support of Taiwei Gao Lian, in Gao Lian's eyes, Chai Jin was just a wealthy man.
"Chai Jin is a generous man and has helped many people in the world. There are many people in the prefecture, so the news got out before he arrived in Cangzhou, and Chai Jin ran away by then."
Wen Huanzhang shook his head. Although his family was in decline, it still had three thousand nails left.
How can we arrest people in such a big way?
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Gao Lian was a little impatient. This wouldn't work, and that wouldn't work either. If he didn't come to arrest him, could he still ask Chai Jin to throw himself into a trap?
"Chai Jin has an uncle, Chai Huangcheng, who lives in Gaotang Prefecture. I heard that the prefect's brother-in-law had long been eyeing Chai Huangcheng's big house. At the slightest hint from the prefect, a dispute arose and Chai Huangcheng was arrested. The Chai family will naturally rule
Chai Jin, the prefect is leading his troops out again, Chai Jin will definitely fall into a trap."
Wen Huanzhang had a clear understanding of the situation in Gaotang Prefecture on the first day he came to Gaotang Prefecture.
"Alas, Chai Jin is a traitor, and the brother-in-law of Gao Zhifu is not a good person. Once Wang Lun is defeated, this will be Gao Qiu's leverage. Then I will ask Su Yuanjing to intervene severely in front of the Holy Master.
The Gao family had a copy, and following the unfavorable outcome of the previous war, they pulled Gao Qiu off his horse."
Wen Huanzhang secretly planned to kill three birds with one stone.
He killed Chai Jin, threatened Wang Lun, and tricked the Gao family.
