The fleet sailed at sea for two days and successfully arrived in Cangzhou.
"Brother, there are people from Liao country asking to see you!"
Yang Zhi cupped his fists and said to Sun Lei.
"Sending someone here so soon? I'm a little tired today and don't want to see him!"
Sun Lei waved his hands with a smile and said, now that the Liao Kingdom is asking for help from him, he must be very assertive.
"Brother, in addition, Li Jun led people to plunder a lot along the coast of Goryeo and obtained a lot of pearls, medicinal materials, brass, and wood. There were also some Japanese fleets, which produced a lot of gold, silver, and pearls."
Yang Zhi smiled again and talked about the harvest at sea.
"Well, that's right. Tell Li Jun to continue and rob more. Robbery is our specialty!"
Sun Lei said with a smile, Goryeo and Japan have always been counting on the development of trade with the Song Dynasty. Now that the Bohai Sea and the East China Sea are in their hands, not everyone can travel through these waters.
"yes."
Yang Zhi smiled and cupped his fists.
"Tell me about Tong Guan. Where is the army?"
Sun Lei looked at Yang Zhi again and asked.
"Now the main force of 150,000 troops has arrived in Wen'an City, and the first 20,000 troops have stationed in Duliu Beizhai and Dangcheng Village."
Yang Zhi said.
"Who is leading the troops?"
Sun Lei asked with a frown.
"Yang Keshi and Zhao Heshou!"
Yang Zhi said.
"It seems that Tong Guan came to Cangzhou to cause trouble for us by chasing Tian Hu?"
Sun Lei touched his chin and said, Duliu North Village and Dangcheng Village are to the west of the Yellow River, and they are only separated from Duliu East Village in Cangzhou by the Yellow River.
"Let's go see Yang Keshi!"
Sun Lei smiled and said, Yang Keshi is an old friend.
"Brother, I'm afraid it won't work. After Yang Keshi arrived at Duliu Beizhai, he clung to the wall and defended the city. I tried several times, but he didn't show up."
Yang Zhi said, Yang Keshi is not showing his head now.
"It's okay, let's go take a look!"
Sun Lei said indifferently.
Take a boat all the way up the Yellow River, turn south and soon arrive near Duliliu Village.
"Put up my flag!"
Sun Lei smiled at Jiao Ting beside him, and Jiao Ting immediately asked someone to set up the flagpole and raise the flag of "Monkey King".
"Look, brother, my name is useful!"
Sun Lei pointed at the crowded city and said with a smile, "There is no reaction at all. The reaction shouldn't be too big at all."
"My brother has a great reputation, and the enemy becomes restless when he comes!"
Yang Zhi had a wry smile on his face. He came a few times. No matter it was to call for formation or to destroy, Yang Keshi didn't respond. He looked motionless. Now Sun Lei just waved the flag and Yang Keshi could hardly sit still. Don't make too much of a difference.
"General Yang, I just came back, would you like to come down and have a chat!"
Sun Lei shouted with a smile.
On Duliu Beizhai, Yang Keshi looked at Sun Lei under the banner of "Monkey King" with a strange expression on his face.
"Sun Lei is really back!"
Yang Keshi murmured that things about Sun Lei in Liaodong have spread. Sun Lei's 20,000 troops resisted the 100,000 Jin army without losing, and killed countless enemies. Although he always felt that there was something wrong with it, the rumors said Chiseling does not look like cheating.
"Guard the camp while I go out. No one will leave the camp without my order, let alone take action!"
Yang Keshi looked at the army around him and said.
"General Yang, do you really want to go out and meet this Sun Lei?"
A general looked at Yang Keshi and said.
"It doesn't matter, since I'm here, I always want to see you!"
Yang Keshi waved his hand and said, Tong Guan made it clear that he wanted to fight Sun Lei, and sooner or later he would also have to meet Sun Lei. What's more, Sun Lei let him go and saved Liu Fa last time, so he would have to meet him due to circumstances and reasons. See.
The gate of the city wall was opened, the suspension bridge over the deep ditch was lowered, and Yang Keshi descended to Duliu Beizhai alone with a spear in hand.
"Leader Sun, we meet again!"
Yang Keshi looked at Sun Lei with a complicated expression.
In just half a year, Sun Lei did something that shocked the world. He defeated hundreds of thousands of imperial officers and soldiers, rushed thousands of miles to aid Hedong, fought with the Western Army to gain the upper hand, killed 30,000 Xixia troops, captured Xixia general Li Liangfu alive, and extorted more than 20,000 horses. War horses, on their way east, killed the Liao people who went south to plunder, and crossed the sea to Liaodong to fight with the Jin Kingdom.
Each thing has refreshed the world's understanding. Each of these things could be boasted about for a year before, but now Sun Lei has accomplished them all in more than half a year.
"I didn't expect General Yang to chase him all the way here. Does Tong Guan still want to take action?"
Sun Lei looked at Yang Keshi and smiled.
"Chief Sun is now occupying all lands in Shandong, how can the imperial court tolerate it?"
Yang Keshi asked back, others were attracted by Sun Lei's series of actions, but smart people knew that Sun Lei was just attracting firepower for the expansion of Liangshan. A mountain stronghold occupying two roads was extremely dangerous in all dynasties. rare.
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from a smart person!"
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"Leader Sun, if you are willing to surrender to the imperial court, that will be the blessing of all people in the world!"
Yang Keshi looked at Sun Lei and said.
"I don't like hearing this anymore. Which one of you, Zhong Shidao, is not a famous general, who has not been fighting with swords and guns for more than ten years or decades? You can't do what I can do?"
"It's not that you are not capable enough, nor is it bad luck, it's that someone always ties your hands and feet and controls your thinking. This is the fundamental disease!"
"If I accept the imperial edict, I will be like you. It will be a disaster for the people, not a blessing."
Sun Lei shook his head and said.
"I'm here this time to ask you, are you really ready to fight me here?"
Sun Lei looked at Yang Keshi and asked.
"This is all the decision to go to the peak, I have no choice!"
Yang Keshi shook his head.
"Then we're going to fight! Then please tell Tong Guan that if he dares to cross the Yellow River, I will kill him!"
Sun Lei looked at Yang Keshi and said, and after saying that, Sun Lei led his troops and left.
"Brother, are we leaving like this?"
Yang Zhi looked at Sun Lei and asked, Duliu Beizhai is the enemy's bridgehead. If it can be captured, the enemy's formation will be pushed back dozens of miles.
"It doesn't matter, I'm afraid Tong Guan is in a state of distress now. Hebei's frontline armaments have been depleted for many years, and the Hebei Forbidden Army soldiers don't know how to fight. Not only do they have a lot of empty pay, but they also don't have the most important military rations and ordnance. How can Tong Guan fight in this situation? ?”
Sun Lei said with a smile, Tong Guan did bring many soldiers and horses this time, hundreds of thousands of people, but the more people, the greater the consumption. The land east of Hedong has been in ruins since Tian Hu made trouble, and the army in Hebei has also been destroyed. How can we fight without supplies and rations?
"Otherwise, why do you think Tong Guan hasn't attacked yet? How can such a Yellow River stop hundreds of thousands of troops in a dry season?"
Sun Lei pointed at the Yellow River and said. At this time, the Yellow River had long lost its roaring roar in summer. The water flow had dried up and large areas of the river bed were exposed.
"Brother, what do you mean, the war won't start for a while?"
Yang Zhi looked at Sun Lei and asked.
"Now Tian Hu is near Langshan, the Liao army is near Zhuozhou, and we are in Cangzhou, which means Hebei is surrounded on three sides. Tong Guan lacks military rations, how can he dare to fight on three fronts?"
Sun Lei nodded and said, I came here today to test. If Tong Guan can bear it, it means that the war will not start for a while. (End of chapter)
