Monk Luo immediately stood in front of the hall, touched his bald head with his palm as big as a cattail leaf fan, and looked around, feeling a little bored.
According to the information given by Aruhan, there is a hero in Chen Huda's store named Gao Yangge. This man has been on the battlefield for a long time and has hundreds of heroes who can fight under his command. He is very vicious and cunning.
Monk Luo has a temperament that is both coarse and fine. He knows very well that since Guo Ning came to Shandong, the first requirement for pacifying the place was to be quick, and the second was to be clean and tidy.
Therefore, after he marched here in a hurry, he did not launch a hasty attack. Instead, he sent his elite subordinates to sneak into the village and set fires. When they put out the fire and caused chaos, he used his own troops to break through the wall in one fell swoop.
Monk Luo has been in the army for many years and has long been familiar with this kind of dispatching and coordination of a scale of three to five hundred people, and he can be called everyone.
Just in case, he also retained Monk Pei and two hundred elite troops as his successor. Once the battle ahead was unfavorable, Monk Pei would lead his men to detour from the tidal flat north of Chen Hudian, making sure that their head and tail were not in contact with each other.
result……
It's like fighting against someone on the battlefield. Before you can exert the tremendous power of your own arms, the iron rod has just been stained with flesh foam, and the enemy is spitting out blood and dead.
Monk Luo just thought it was ridiculous. If I had known this, why would I have spent so much effort? Wouldn't this be a waste of time?
I thought that the powerful people in Laizhou who dared to go against Guo Liulang had some powerful skills. But in the end, this is it?
Some of these miscellaneous soldiers are indeed brave. But on the battlefield where the two armies are fighting, their bravery can only go so far.
Obviously, these powerful private soldiers were trained according to military law, but the level of training was seriously insufficient, and they also seriously lacked the common sense of vigilance. So as soon as Monk Luo charged, they were defeated, as if they were no different from paper.
This is far from the first battle to pacify Laizhou that Monk Luo imagined.
Monk Luo shouted in disappointment: "Hurry up, hurry up! According to the list, kill when you find it, don't delay!"
The crowd responded loudly and dispersed on horseback.
Not long after, several heads were brought back and thrown in front of Monk Luo's horse: "Commander, these are Shi Laosan and Bo Laowu's, and those are Ma Bazi and Liu Twelve's. These are all.
They are thieves who came out to fight against our Jiedushi!"
"Who is that..." Monk Luo opened the file and took another look: "Where is the man named Brother Gao Yang? Did he let him run away?"
"Oh, I forgot to mention it. The one you just smashed to death with an iron rod was the one whose back of the head was shattered, but his face was still fine."
"...I'm afraid you're not just entertaining Sajia!"
Several people said: "Turn it over, turn it over, and find someone to identify it."
Then someone turned Brother Gao Yang over, grabbed a prisoner and identified him: "That's right, it's Brother Gao Yang!"
"..." Monk Luo folded the file and stuffed it back into the leather bag on his waist: "Leave twenty people here to guard the prisoners and count the supplies, while the rest of the soldiers continue to act!"
When Monk Luo's troops were charging rampant, Han Xuan and Ma Bao also marched separately, sweeping across Laizhou with a fan. Everywhere they went, they were invaded and looted like fire, and there was no place that could even stop their attack.
Guo Ning gave them three days to clean up all parts of Laizhou, but according to the current momentum, about two days would be enough. Moreover, more time was spent on marching, and very little was used for fighting.
This is good news for Guo Ning and others.
But for Xu Ruxian and other powerful people in Laizhou, it was terrible news.
The border between Shandong and Shandong has been a place where heroes have emerged since ancient times. As early as the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty, when the Song Dynasty was at its peak, there were so-called Jingdong thieves in Qing, Ji, Pu, Yun and other states. At one time, thirty-six people were rampaging across the river, and the officers and soldiers
There are tens of thousands, but no one dares to resist.
Later, the people of the Song Dynasty joined forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty. They had a beautiful idea, but they gathered all the people in the world and made their plans. When the army was raised, hundreds of thousands of people relied on Shandong's power for food, and the people were forced to live in dire straits.
Then there were Prince Li from Yunzhou, Gaotuoshan from Mizhou, Guo Jin from Yizhou, Zhang Xian from Leigushan, Zhang Zheng from Donghai, etc., all of whom raised their beacons, each gathering tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.
When Dajin rose and the Jurchens moved south, fighting continued in Shandong.
For example, Jinan Liu Wenshun, Shao Qing, Liangshan Zhang Rong, Yizhou Zhao Kaishan, Jinan Geng Jing and others are all great heroes who can rival the Jurchen tigers and wolves and dominate Shandong. Their illustrious names are still respected today.
The people recited it.
Although the local people are miserable, they have many strong bones. Over the past decades or hundreds of years, local rebellions have become popular, with blood splattering every step of the way, and they are even more confident in their own force.
Therefore, Brother Gao Yang's idea and Xu Ruxian's decision are indeed based on the powerful strength of the local powerful families in Shandong. We cannot say that they are stupid.
Unfortunately, it was wrong.
The folk customs of Shandong are indeed strong, but after all, they have not fought a real war in decades.
The Da Jin Kingdom placed under the command of several unified military divisions on the South Road to use the defense armies for the Song and Jin Dynasties. In the early years of Dading, there were still more than 173,000 people. At the end of the Dading Southern Expedition, the number was reduced to 60,000. Later,
It was even transferred to the Criminal Division, and its main business became ensuring public security.
During the Taihe period, the nine-pronged attack on the Song Dynasty, although the momentum was earth-shattering, was actually just a few encounters along the border. Neither side had the intention or ability to continue. In the end, all the energy was spent on criticizing the envoys on both sides.
The fighting in the northern frontier trenches was very different from that in the south.
When Dajin was at its most powerful, it had to build trenches and build barriers in the face of nomadic peoples on the grasslands in order to stabilize itself.
With the decline of Dajin and the rise of powerful enemies on the grassland, outsiders only know that Dajin lost hundreds of thousands of troops in the Battle of Yehuling and suffered a huge loss. But in fact, before the Battle of Yehuling, the strength of the country was divided between the strong and the weak.
However, it is difficult to maintain the offensive and defensive momentum. Which year did the northern Xinjiang defense line not fight? Which year did not blood flow everywhere?
It's just that every chaos was put down by the Northern Xinjiang armies with all their might, so no one in Dajin took it seriously!
In recent years, the imperial court has signed troops and conscripted troops one after another, forcefully forcing all the Han and Jurchen people in the world to complain and suffer unspeakably. Why? Could it be that the Gonggun princes in the court were full and had deliberate intentions?
Trouble?
No, it's because without signing troops and recruiting troops, the strength of the thousands of miles of defensive trenches in northern Xinjiang cannot be maintained. Without the heads of soldiers from northern Xinjiang rolling up to the front, the Mongols had already entered the Central Plains two years ago;
The posture of the Great Jin Kingdom will be unsustainable two years ago!
The intensity of the Mongolian-Jin war has long been ten times that of the Song-Jin war.
The northern Xinjiang garrison finally collapsed. On the one hand, it was due to the increasingly dim command in the court; on the other hand, it was also due to the strength of the powerful enemies on the grassland, which had reached an unimaginable level.
The thousands of people under Guo Ning's command are truly the last elite of the Northern Xinjiang garrison. This army is filled from top to bottom with warriors who have fought to the death against the Mongols under the most difficult circumstances. When these
The warriors are effectively organized and become an iron army!
The strength of their military force is far beyond the imagination of Shandong local politicians.
Even Yang An'er didn't expect this enough.
Yang An'er's troops were the most ferocious among the bandits in Shandong, so they were organized by the imperial court into the Tiewagang Army, with the intention of using them to fight against the Mongolian army.
But Yang An'er was a smart man. He led his troops to Jiming Mountain outside Juyong Pass and stayed there for two full years. Even if the emperor personally issued an edict, he would not move.
Although this preserved the strength of Tiewagang's army, it also caused him to lose the opportunity to truly see the powerful enemy in the north.
In Yang An'er's eyes, he only saw hundreds of thousands of northern Xinjiang garrison retreating with a roar...
Isn't this unusual? When I, Yang An'er, was in Shandong, didn't I also defeat the 50,000 to 60,000 defensive troops on both the east and west roads of Shandong?
Based on this, Yang An'er only came to the conclusion that Da Jin's armaments were depleted and on the verge of collapse, but he did not really understand what kind of difficulties Da Jin was facing in the north.
From this, Yang An'er also misestimated the strength of Guo Ning's troops.
In his memory, Guo Ning's troops were just a collection of broken troops from Northern Xinjiang. But he didn't know that at this time, it was also at that time.
Since Yang An'er misjudged Guo Ning, Xu Ruxian was naturally affected.
After all, Yang An'er fought in the north and south, and was the most knowledgeable among the many rebels in Shandong. If Xu Ruxian didn't believe him, who could he believe?
Xu Ruxian is not an incompetent person. He has been operating in Laizhou for many years. He can appease subordinate officials, contact powerful people, and can be entrusted by Yang An'er to handle Laizhou affairs. His methods are certainly powerful.
After he ordered everyone to prepare for the launch, he took a number of his troops and set off that night.
His strength was not fighting in battle, but he was also brave and talented. In the early morning of this day, he took more than ten people with him and entered Ye County as usual.
In addition, there are two hundred subordinates who are good at tearing and killing. They all wear short jackets and have short knives hidden close to their bodies. They work separately. Some of them pretend to be ordinary bankers, some pretend to be woodcutters, and some pretend to be shopkeepers who go to the city to purchase.
Vendors sneak into the city one after another.
The city had already made special arrangements, setting aside houses to accommodate them, and provided them with food, wine, and food.
At noon, two hundred tough men arrived.
Xu Ruxian stood proudly in the courtyard, waved his hand, and two of his trusted subordinates behind him unfolded a map of the city of Ye County.
"Everyone, let's confirm one last time! At the earliest tonight, or at the latest tomorrow morning, heroes from all walks of life we have mobilized will gather outside the city. The prison army and grain shooting army in the city will go up to the city wall for defense. Let's not launch it yet.
Wait and see what is real in the city... Haha, because all the officials have gone to Haicang Town, the city is most likely fake! By then..."
Just as he was about to enter the harbor, he heard the thumping of footsteps outside, and a servant rushed in with a pale face.
