Chapter 281 Wu Erlang acquires powerful soldiers and seeks prestige in a timely manner
When a dynasty falls, there will always be people who die for it.
During the Jingkang period, Li Ruoshui, Zhang Shuye and others were like this.
Their reputation is very great, and the historical records also deserve this reputation.
But there were hundreds of millions of people in the Song Dynasty, and even though they had cowardly kings and treacherous ministers in power, they could not be the only ones.
More common people, soldiers, and people from all walks of life sacrificed their lives to resist external humiliation.
These people have little reputation and have been submerged in the tide of history. No one knows their names, but they are real.
Just like the Imperial Guards in front of Li Yunze at this moment, they were once a group of passionate sergeants.
Just once.
Now, these men who wanted to contribute to the country a few years ago have lost their luster under the torture of life.
"I already know about the Imperial Guards in the capital." Looking at the dock coolies, tenant farmers, handicrafts, playing instruments, playing and singing, and delivering takeaways in restaurants, the only thought in their minds is, 'Zhao Song will not be destroyed, it is the law of heaven.
Where?'
When he was drunk, Li Yunze signaled Shi Xiu to give the gift.
As if someone was guiding him in the dark, he led a group of younger brothers to conquer the prefectures and counties and return to Dongping Mansion.
Under the activities of both internal and external parties as well as Li Yunze, Song Jiang, who had just taken the top spot, inexplicably became one of the four most famous bandits in the world.
"Ten thousand regular soldiers will be presented to the court, ten thousand auxiliary soldiers will be asked by Lieutenant Chen to help with the procedures, and another twenty thousand civilians will be recruited. There is no need to say anything about this." Li Yunze made the arrangements quickly.
Fei, they are all treated as serious soldiers. When reporting, you can find someone to look at it. Do you understand? "
The guardsmen in front of them all looked at Li Yunze without any emotion at all, only with endless indifference.
The Song Dynasty of this era was an era when the power of scholar-bureaucrats reached its extreme and force was suppressed to the extreme.
However, these Imperial Guards have lost their military status, and without their salaries, they can only rely on work to survive in the expensive Bianliang City.
I visited Zhao Kai, King of Yun, and said, "When I come back, I will help you win the title of crown prince."
"Tieniu." Song Jiang, who was sitting in the top spot, waved his hand for Li Kui to step aside.
Because he knew it was all nonsense, he simply served the hard food.
After leaving, Li Yunze did not rush to find his sister to discuss Taoism. Instead, he took Shi Xiu to Fanlou for a banquet.
Later, King Chao Gai and Chao Tianwang, who had a difficult time fighting Lin Chong on Liangshan Mountain, took the initiative to contact Song Jiang and asked him to come up the mountain.
The crowd suddenly roared, and everyone rushed forward, and the scene fell into chaos.
It was very straightforward to pay the gold bar first, and then he was appointed an official and made a wish, "I will live a good life following the ruler of this capital. After the bandits are wiped out, you will naturally gain fame and wealth," and so on.
When Li Yunze's army arrived in the west of Beijing, local powerful people from all over the country who had enmity with Song Jiang felt that the death of Shiji Yu had come, and hurriedly brought their villagers and tenants to support him.
Lin Chong and others, who were undercover there, didn't even say a word.
"I know that the Song Dynasty valued culture over military affairs, but this is too slight. When the army goes on an expedition, two or three kittens come to send each other off?"
Such as Lijiazhuang, Zhujiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, etc.
Therefore, when giving gifts, there were no jewelry or jade, but boxes of gold bars. After opening the box, the entire box seemed to be enveloped in golden light.
Whether it's Lin Chong's group or Chao Gai's group, each has its own camp and does its own thing.
As long as the gifts are in place, nothing can't be done, not to mention that Li Yunze's request for arsenal and military supplies is a serious matter.
In contrast, the Tartars learned their lesson. After entering the pass, they let the surrendered Ming army take the lead, while they pretended to do so. As a result, they successfully destroyed Nanming, who was also abandoned by the people.
After walking around in a big circle, I have finally finished all these things.
Li Yunze waved, "If you are willing to accompany me on an expedition against thieves, please come and sign up."
Li Yunze was still entertaining guests, but this time the guests were replaced by a group of military generals.
Song Jiang could become the boss of Liang Shanbo because Li Yunze arranged it behind the scenes.
The civil and military skills of Huizong's dynasty had long since deteriorated.
Li Yunze chuckled a few times and said nothing more. He waved his hands to the people in the Privy Council and quickly rode off.
He doesn't like any fancy work in his work, and he has always been straightforward and relies on his strength to speak hard.
Ten thousand regular soldiers, ten thousand auxiliary soldiers, 20,000 civilians, plus their own troops and horses led by Hu Yanzhuo and others, the 40,000-strong army headed straight to the west of Beijing in a mighty manner.
Chao Gai sneered in his heart, but nodded repeatedly on his face, "Brother said, that's exactly what it should be."
Tens of thousands of troops are standing there for you to cut down, and you won't be able to cut them all even if you are exhausted.
Several managers of the arsenal, after receiving the gifts with glittering eyes, patted their chests and promised to take whatever they want for as much as they want.
"Taiwei." The Deputy Privy Council member who came to see him off came forward and saluted and explained, "Today is the day when the imperial examination results will be released, and everyone has gone to see the results."
Facing the military generals, Li Yunze acted openly and did not play any tricks, let alone talk nonsense in a foggy manner.
On the day when the troops were officially dispatched, no important figures came to see them off.
At this time, they are willing to work hard for whoever gives them money to support their families.
The best food and wine banquet, the best singing and music.
They lived a miserable life and were so poor that they were about to starve to death.
The imperial troops borrowed from Taiwei Chen came forward and smashed them with their sentry sticks, and finally managed to maintain order.
"Although it is abandoned, it is, after all, the home of the Imperial Guards who have received training from generation to generation." Li Yunze clicked and made more than a dozen long lines, and registered the people who received the settlement allowance in front of the copywriters. "And he has been doing manual labor for a long time, and his physical fitness is only as long as
Naturally, I can keep up with nutrition. I am also very familiar with all kinds of ordnance."
I took it once before and said it was good after using it.
The reason why he took this trip was that, in addition to the necessary procedures, the most important thing was that he was very interested in the famous walking armor and divine arm bow.
Yang Zhi, who had already noticed Li Yunze's ambition, opened his mouth and could only say, "But what about the imperial court?"
According to rumors, Song Jiang was surrounded by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady and had a halo to protect his body. Song Jiang made a big fuss in Jiangzhou and attracted a large number of subordinates and minions who bowed to him.
"The general will eventually understand." As he was born in a general family, he was already well versed in this kind of fooling the higher authorities.
This time, Li Yunze very simply sent people to move all the infantry armor and divine arm bows from the arsenals and warehouses inside and outside Bianliang City.
After finishing these things, he went to visit the prince Zhao Huan and said, "We can start trouble when I come back."
For this kind of brainless person, everyone just glanced at him and just thought it was a wild dog barking on the roadside.
If it weren't for the indiscriminate killing and plundering of the savages, Zhao Jiumei would not be able to support the Song Dynasty, which was abandoned by the people, let alone the establishment of the Southern Song Dynasty.
But in fact, the only troops Song Jiang could really mobilize on Liangshan were his direct descendants.
Li Yunze understood the thoughts of these people very well, so he did not make any passionate or impassioned speech.
The commander of the capital of Runing Prefecture who was recruited was Hu Yanzhuo with double whips. Chenzhou regiment training envoy, Yum General Han Tao. Yingzhou regiment training envoy, Tianmu general Peng Qi and others.
Master Li, who respects his teacher and respects his teachings, repays his sincerity and hard work, and expresses his attitude, "When I come back, we will continue our relationship."
Hu Yanzhuo and others are close to each other, and they are already fighting against Wang Qing of Huaixi. Li Yunze can mobilize them to enter the capital soon.
"The most important thing." Turning to look at Yang Zhi, Li Yunze said with an undiminished smile, "They were once poor, so poor that they almost starved to death. So as long as they are given enough benefits, they will be brave warriors on the battlefield."
Li Yunze is not interested in other things. He has plenty there, and the quality is better.
"Fifty guan of settlement allowance for each person." Li Yunze waved his hand, and Yang Zhi and others quickly opened the large boxes on the carriage, which were all filled with copper coins strung together.
"Haha~~~"
He asked Zhao Fujin to meet him and gave him the last volume of the Dream of Red Mansions book, saying with deep affection, "You are mine and no one can take it away from you."
"Du Tong." Yang Zhi came over and asked worriedly, "The imperial court only gave a quota of 10,000 people."
Upon learning that the imperial army had arrived, Song Jiang hurriedly summoned the leaders in the Juyi Hall to discuss countermeasures.
Lin Chong and others who received Li Yunze's instructions did not stop him. After Song Jiang went up the mountain, they actively supported him, allowing him to surpass Chao Gai and become the top spot in Liangshan.
On the top of the mountain, I had a tryst with Emperor Roufu, and while holding on to the stone table, I promised with all my strength, 'When I come back, I will propose marriage to the official.'
You must know that the imperial court only provided half of the food and salary for these forbidden troops, and it was only for three months!
For Li Yunze, who is not short of money and food, this is simply like using a pole to shove soldiers and horses into his arms!
This time it was his treat, and the guests he entertained were the arsenal manager and several managers.
All the generals expressed their opinions one after another, saying, "Don't worry, Lieutenant Commander, we will be able to do the work of the dogs and horses with the saddles in front and behind the horses."
After that, he did not start his business in Jiangzhou, and also rejected the olive branch extended by Wang Qing of Huaixi and Jiangnan La.
After seeing so much money, everyone who had been extremely indifferent before immediately changed their colors.
As for Guan Sheng and others, they are too far away and we can wait until they have passed.
Li Yunze left troops in Dongping Mansion, led by Shuangqiang Dong Ping and Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming, to block Song Jiang's entry.
Among them were Baoyi, the defensive envoy of Busi Yamen, known as Xuanzan of Chou Junma, the instructor of the Golden Spear Squadron of the Forbidden Army, Xu Ning, the Golden Spear General, and the deputy artilleryman of Jiazhangku, Hongtian Lei Lingzhen.
Let’s go to the west of Beijing first, obviously we want to take the first shot at Song Jiang from Liangshanbo.
"There's nothing nice to say." Black Tornado Li Kui had a hot temper and shouted on the spot, "It doesn't matter how many times he comes, just kill him."
In the name of sending troops to Xixia, the last warriors among the Forbidden Army were recruited to form the Capital Forbidden Army.
As for the results, they are clearly written in the history books.
In order to enhance his prestige and strength, so as to annex Lin Chong, Chao Gai and others, Song Jiang continued to attack cities and territories everywhere, but failed everywhere and provoked many enemies.
As for the farewells between Chen Zongshan, Chen Taiwei, and Cai Jing and Cai You, there is no need to say more.
But the result was that the interests of all parties were harmed, and with the combined efforts of everyone, the treacherous minister Cai Jing could not hold on and was forced to give up.
Originally, he was passionate about serving his country and killing the enemy, but in the end, his wife and children almost starved to death.
Then he looked sincerely at Chao Gai and Lin Chong, who were silent, and said sincerely, "Two brothers, I, Liangshan, have reached the point of life and death. I hope that everyone can put aside their past grudges and deal with it together."
In the evening of the next day, we were still in this building, and even in this box.
The benefits of Li Yunze's infiltration into the Song Dynasty gradually became apparent. Not only could he have an upright affair with the Emperor, but he could also easily leverage the power of the Song Dynasty.
This is what the generals pursue, and this time it is the righteousness of the imperial court, so naturally there will be no shirk.
Seeing that everyone seemed to be united, Song Jiang nodded with satisfaction and then told his own response strategy.
"The officers and soldiers who came from far away do not know the nature of water, so they will not be able to go to Liangshan. However, we lack food, grass and military supplies, so we need to strengthen our reserves before the officers and soldiers attack."
"Appreciate further details."
"Let's go to Zhujiazhuang!"
