One person suppresses an army? ! Before that, besides Fan Long, how many people knew that Yang Dezheng had such powerful fighting power? Yang Dezheng's tyranny and toughness penetrated deeply into the hearts of the Yeqi tribe cavalry. The cavalry of the Yeqi tribe avoided Yang Dezheng as if they were avoiding a devil, and attacked Yang Dezheng's two wings. However, when Yang Dezheng, one man and one horse, resisted the cavalry of the Yeqi tribe, the Fuxing infantry had a great change in their hearts. Yang Dezheng stood there, as if they had a backbone.
Yang Dezheng's bravery also greatly inspired them. They temporarily forgot their fear and had unyielding stubbornness and fighting spirit in their hearts.
"Roar~" The Fuxing infantry standing in the first row behind Yang Dezheng roared with a wooden shield, and the other Fuxing infantry carrying wooden shields also roared together. Facing the cavalry of the Yeqi tribe who beat them back steadily, they not only did not feel fear, but instead advanced step by step carrying wooden shields.
"Roar~" "Roar~" The huge roar formed a powerful sound wave, spreading in waves in all directions. The Revival Infantry looked very excited. The pace of their feet subconsciously quickened. When the Yeqi tribe cavalry and the Fuxing infantry collided. The Fuxing infantry were still no match for the Yeqi tribe's cavalry, but they did not take a step back. Even though they suffered heavy losses from being killed by the Yeqi tribe's cavalry, they still did not retreat.
Standing in front of the two armies, Yang Dezheng looked like a god of war, with a smile subconsciously raised on his lips. In this battle, the outcome is no longer important to Yang Dezheng. For his part, he felt like he had already won. Therefore, through this battle, the Fuxing infantry have developed their spirit and spirit, and they already have the spirit and spirit of some elite soldiers. that's enough. As long as he has this spirit of refusing to admit defeat, he feels that even if he loses this war, it will still be worth it.
Because the revival pacesetters were officially formed. As long as they are trained a little and equipped with armor, steel swords, and shields, they will become the most elite soldiers. With these elites around, it would be easy for Yang Dezheng to attack Fengzhou twice. "Kill!" Fan Long's loud shout interrupted Yang Dezheng's thoughts.
He was not willing to let Yang Dezheng dominate the front, so he led the Fuxing Rangers directly towards Ye Qiganbo's tent. Fan Long planned to capture the thief first and capture the king first, like by capturing the wild beggar Ganbo to tell everyone that his ability was not inferior to that of Yang Dezheng. Fan Long took the lead, just like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing the cavalry under Ye Qiganbo's command.
In just one stick of incense, Fan Long reached the spot two hundred feet in front of Ye Qiganbo. Yeqi Ganbo stroked his beard and said with emotion: "One tiger and one wolf, I am willing to lose this battle. Pay the gold and withdraw the troops." Following Yeqi Ganbo's order, the soldiers around him puffed out their cheeks and blew the whistle. Got the horn. The charging Yeqi tribe cavalry immediately turned around and began to gather around Yeqi Ganbo.
As the army continued to gather, more and more cavalry gathered around Ye Qiganbo. Fan Long was quickly blocked from the army. He could only look at the heads of wild beggars and sigh. On the battlefield, there are not many opportunities to capture the king. Once lost, it is difficult to get it back. After Ye Qiganbo withdrew his troops, Yang Dezheng also ordered the troops to withdraw with gold.
The soldiers of the Zhejia Army and the Fuxing Army stopped their offensive under Yang Dezheng's order. They also imitated the cavalry of the Yeqi tribe and gathered around Yang Dezheng. Yang Dezheng stood on the mountain of corpses and waved to Wang Xing, who was standing next to him carrying a big flag. Seeing Yang Dezheng waving, Wang Xing walked up to Yang Dezheng and asked respectfully: "What are your orders, general?"
Yang Dezheng's battle today also opened Wang Xing's eyes. If Wang Xing only respected Yang Dezheng's identity before, now he respects Yang Dezheng's ability even more. Yang Dezheng frowned and whispered: "Hold me a little..."
"Ah?" Wang Xing was a little stunned. Yang Dezheng cursed in a low voice: "I'm out of strength, I don't have the strength to move..." Wang Xing reacted after hearing this, and hurriedly carried the flag, holding the flagpole behind Yang Dezheng to help Yang Dezheng Borrow strength. While helping Yang Dezheng borrow strength, he said with a smile: "General, it turns out that you have lost all your strength. I thought, General, you are not a human being and don't know how tired you are." Yang Dezheng glared at Wang Xing, and Wang Xing shut his mouth in amusement.
However, he did not look down on Yang Dezheng because of Yang Dezheng's failure. Instead, he respected Yang Dezheng even more. Yang Dezheng is a human being, not a god. It is precisely because he is a human being and his fighting ability is so tyrannical that he is even more respected. On the battlefield. After both sides withdrew their troops. Yang Dezheng and Yeqi Ganbo had a tacit understanding and began to send troops to collect the corpses on the battlefield.
In the Shura field of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, it only took a few hours to kill, but it took a day to clean up. After Yang Dezheng calmed down, he returned to the temporary tent to rest, leaving the heavy responsibility of cleaning the battlefield to Fan Long. In this battle between Yang Dezheng and Yeqi Ganbo, both sides suffered serious losses. The Fuxing Rangers under Yang Dezheng suffered losses of nearly 10,000, while the Fuxing Infantry suffered losses of nearly 12,000.
The Zhe family army also lost two thousand people. In total, nearly half of the 50,000 troops under Yang Dezheng's command were lost. Ye Qiganbo also suffered a lot of casualties, with a total loss of more than 30,000. After both sides cleared the battlefield. Yeqi Ganbo sent a letter to Yang Dezheng's camp.
The letter invited Yang Dezheng to meet with the two armies before the war in two days. Yang Dezheng happily agreed to Yeqi Ganbo's invitation.
Two days later. Both sides laid out their troops. Yeqi Ganbo and his bodyguard broke away from the Yeqi tribe's cavalry, and a group of ten people arrived in front of the two armies. Yang Dezheng, escorted by Fan Long, Ma Mian, and Wang Xing, also arrived in front of the two armies. The two armies were three hundred feet apart. Yang Dezheng and Yeqi Ganbo each advanced one hundred and fifty feet, and they met exactly. When the two met, the guards around them were tense and wary, but the two of them seemed to be old friends for many years.
Yeqi Ganbo sat on the horse and stared at Yang Dezheng for a long time. He sighed: "Before we met, I thought you were thirty years old. After we met, I realized that you were just a little baby." Yang Dezheng He smiled calmly and said: "You are not as young as you are when you are ambitious. If you can say such things, it only means that you are old."
Yeqi Ganbo sighed in a low voice and said: "Yes! I am old. My most beloved youngest son and my most valued eldest son have all been lost in Fengzhou. Now only my second son who is useless is left."
Yang Dezheng was stunned and said frankly: "I am deeply sorry for what happened to your youngest son. The people who attacked your youngest son were indeed my subordinates. But I never gave them an order to attack your youngest son. .As for your eldest son’s matter, it has nothing to do with me. I can only say my condolences.”
Yeqi Ganbo shook his head and smiled, "In the words of you Song people, I call it a white-haired person giving a black-haired person to someone else, and I am unwilling to do so. I really want Guo Da's head." Yang Dezheng said solemnly: "A few days ago, My soldiers and horses ambushed Guo Da's tribe here, but Guo Da escaped. I believe Guo Da should still be lingering in the two states. If I can get Guo Da's head, I will definitely send someone to deliver it to you quickly. "
Yeqi Ganbo nodded, "If you can hand over Guo Da's head to me, the grievances between us can be wiped out." Yang Dezheng nodded. After chatting about personal matters, the two began to talk about business matters. Yeqi Ganbo said: "Succeed as a king or lose as a bandit. I have lost. Since you want to take Fengzhou from me, what benefits can you give me?"
Deals and deals have always been straightforward. Being fond of roundabout ways is a way for Song people to hide their ugly faces, but it is not suitable for use here. Since Yeqi Ganbo said it so straightforwardly. There was no need for Yang Dezheng to beat around the bush with him. "I can give you cheap weapons, and I can also give you cheap iron, salt, tea bricks, cloth, etc."
Yeqi Ganbo asked in astonishment: "That's all?" Yang Dezheng said calmly: "Of course, the cheapness I'm talking about is not the internal cheapness of your party. I'm giving it to you according to the market price of Bianjing. You should know that Bianjing The market price is many times cheaper than what you buy in the mainland. At the same time, I can also allow you to enter Fengzhou to do business and exempt you from all taxes.
In the future, I will try my best to build Fengzhou into a shopping mall. Fengzhou will also become a bridge between the Song Dynasty and Dangxiang. All business in the northwest will be conducted in Fengzhou. With such a mall at your back, your tribe will grow and develop in a short time. "As an upper-level party leader, he has a deep understanding of what Song merchants are like when doing business with his people.
A tea brick is exchanged for a war horse. In the eyes of wild beggars, this kind of transaction is no different from an open robbery. But his people thought this was the most cost-effective deal, and even thought they had made a lot of money. Once upon a time, Yeqi Ganbo was almost tortured by his own people. He has also tried to change this situation. But the result was not ideal. He went to negotiate with merchants from the Song Dynasty, but they were unwilling to burn it rather than sell it to his tribe at a low price.
After he became angry, he directly led his troops to rob it. As a result, he got to the end and found that no one went to their tribe to sell things anymore. In addition, the Song Dynasty court strictly controlled the export trade to Dangxiang. His tribe lived a miserable life during that time. Therefore, when the Song caravan finally appeared in his sight again, he just let it go. However, this matter has always been a worry for Yeqi Ganbo.
Now that Yang Dezheng has taken down the burden of Fengzhou and is willing to provide him with cheap supplies, this has undoubtedly relieved him of two worries. The most important thing is that Yang Dezheng also promised to sell them weapons. It is well known that the weapons of the Song Dynasty were excellent.
It's just that the Song Dynasty court did not allow weapons to be sold out at all, so they could only salivate. Now that Yang Dezheng is willing to sell it to him, this is undoubtedly the sound of nature. With the sophisticated weapons of the Song Dynasty and the warriors of his tribe, Yeqi Ganbo felt that his tribe could dominate the party. However, Yang Dezheng's promises are all empty. Yeqi Ganbo paid for Fengzhou, but did not see anything substantial.
He was unwilling to do so. Yeqi Ganbo raised his eyes and saw Fan Long standing next to Yang Dezheng, and his eyes lit up. He said with a smile: "I can hand over Fengzhou to you, and even give you an extra state. As long as you give him to me." After hearing Ye Qi Ganbo's words, Yang Dezheng and Fan Long exclaimed at the same time. Stunned.
Fan Long looked at Yang Qi subconsciously. But Yang Dezheng said calmly: "Fan Long is not a bargaining chip, he is my brother. It is impossible for me to treat him as a bargaining chip. I only want Fengzhou and no other place. If you feel unwilling to give it to me, I don't mind. I'll fight you again." Yang Dezheng said again, "Also, I can't make the decision even for him. His subordinates from Yang Peng of Youzhou were with my eighth aunt when they attacked Yanmen Pass. You also know that Youzhou Things to do, and if you have time, go to Tianjing New City, the richest city in the Song Dynasty, where you can get whatever you want."
When Fan Long heard this, he twitched his lips and showed a satisfied smile on his face. Yeqi Ganbo was a little unbelievable. In his opinion, this was a very good deal. Yang Dezheng is actually unwilling? Yeqi Ganbo stared blankly at Yang Dezheng for a long time, and then sighed: "You are really different." Yeqi Ganbo straightened his back and said solemnly: "I can temporarily form an alliance with you, too. I can hand over Fengzhou to you first. When you deliver Guo Da's head, I will formally form an alliance with you."
Yeqi Ganbo solemnly told Yang Dezheng, "Remember, if you don't see Guo Da's head for one day, I can destroy our verbal covenant at any time." Yang Dezheng handed over his hand and said, "I remember. ." After the two sides reached a temporary alliance, Yang Dezheng reminded: "When the leader of the troubled Ye Beggar withdraws from Fengzhou, he will take away the party members in Fengzhou." Ye Beggar Ganbo rolled his eyes and said, "Of course this old man Know."
In the Battle of Fengzhou, the cavalry of the Yeqi tribe suffered heavy losses. Naturally, it is impossible for Ye Qiganbo to let go of the party members in Fengzhou. Even the money in Fengzhou will be taken away by him. After the two sides reached a temporary alliance. Yeqi Ganbo led his troops and horses to leave the border between Fengzhou and Shengzhou.
After Yang Dezheng returned to the military camp and integrated his troops, he asked Fan Long to take the remaining Fuxing Rangers back to Chenjiakou. He himself took the Zhejia Army and the remaining eight thousand revival infantry to follow Ye Qiganbo and began to take over the entire Fengzhou. The wild beggar moved very slowly in Fengzhou, as if he wanted to plunder Fengzhou completely.
After Yang Dezheng took over the first county seat in Fengzhou, he felt dumbfounded. Yeqi Ganbo actually followed the Fuxing Army's previous practices and dug up the ground three feet into the entire Fengzhou and looted it. After being raided, only the Han people were left, like refugees.
All the party members in Fengzhou were taken away by the wild beggar Ganbo. The process of taking over Fengzhou lasted for seven days. The area west of Fengzhou was completely plundered by Aunt Xiang and her troops, otherwise it would have to last for a long time. Seven days later. Ye Qianbo left Fengzhou in a mighty manner with a large amount of property and 200,000 party members. Yang Dezheng was left in a tattered mess.
Yang Dezheng was like a rag picker. Not only did he not dislike it, he picked up the mess as if he had found a treasure. As soon as Yang Dezheng took over the mess in Fengzhou, he hurriedly sent the Zhejia Army Association to report the news. At the same time, he also asked people from the Zhe family army to send a message to Zhe Yuxun, asking him to divide the property he stored in Linzhou into two parts, and buy a large amount of grain in Linzhou on the spot and transport it over. Fengzhou was stripped of its ground by wild beggars, and almost all the people's rations were looted.
Now the people of Fengzhou are all crying with their mouths open, waiting for food, and Yang Dezheng cannot bear to see them all starve to death. At the same time, Yang Dezheng also sent a letter to Daizhou, promoting Chen Jiangling to be the head of Daizhou, and transferred Sun Jiu to Fengzhou to manage politics. He also asked Sun Yuan to purchase a large amount of grain and grass in Daizhou and escort him over. Three days after Yang Dezhengxin sent it out, the grain and grass purchased by the Zhe family arrived.
The person in charge of escorting was actually Zhe Yuxun. Zhe Yuxun seemed to have expected that Yang Dezheng would buy grain, so he stored a lot of grain. In addition, there are many, many cattle. When Yang Dezheng saw the cattle and sheep all over the mountains and plains, he couldn't close his mouth.
Far away, Yang Dezheng saw Zhe Yuxun's grain transport team driving the cattle and sheep team behind. Yang Dezhi's horse galloped wildly, cutting a path through the herd of cattle and sheep, and arrived in front of Zhe Yuxun. Zhe Yuxun was wearing a black uniform. When he saw Yang Dezheng approaching quickly, he smiled happily. When Yang Dezheng arrived in front of Zhe Yuxun, he excitedly raised his hands and said, "How can I bother you, General Zhe, to do something as trivial as escorting grain and grass?"
Zhe Yuxun waved his hand and said with a cheerful smile: "Now you have captured Fengzhou and Shengzhou and occupied the three states. Our two families have naturally formed an alliance. From now on, we will be one family. There is no need to be so polite. Besides, in addition to escorting a large amount of grain and grass this time, there is also a large amount of property that your boy left in Linzhou. I was worried about letting others escort me, so I went there myself. "
Yang Dezheng cupped his hands again and said: "We are just waiting for this batch of life-saving food. If you don't mind, I will ask my troops to divide the food quickly. The people of Fengzhou can't wait any longer. Zhe Yuxun nodded and said, "We're on your territory, you can do whatever you want." Yang Dezheng waved his hand, and the soldiers following him immediately went down to convey the order to divide the grain. This much food is life-saving food distributed to the people throughout Fengzhou.
So there is no need to pull them into Fengzhou City and then pull them out after dividing them. It is very likely that many people in Fengzhou will die because of the extra delay. Wang Xing is now worthy of a horse. He and Ma Mian are guarding Yang Qi on the left and right. Wang Xing looked at the cattle and sheep all over the mountains and fields, and asked: "General, are you planning to graze in Fengzhou?" Yang Dezheng understood Wang Xing's words, and he subconsciously looked at Zhe Yuxun.
Zhe Yuxun smiled dryly and said: "You guys should know that Wei Xin grabbed a vote in the Dangxiang area. So now in Fuzhou and Linzhou, meat is cheaper than food. Even so, you can't finish it. It's better to come here directly." Let me help the people. Besides, you don’t have to spend a lot of effort to transport these cattle and sheep. Just have someone to drive them behind." Yang Dezheng heard this, nodded, and said, "General Zhe is more thoughtful."
Yang Dezheng turned to Wang Xing and told Wang Xing, "Go down and ask the Fuxing infantry to drive away a group of cattle and sheep while escorting the grain and grass." Wang Xing said in shock: "Relieve the refugees with meat?" Wang Xing's three questions His vision completely collapsed, something he had never heard of before.
Yang Dezheng kicked Wang Xing, who was still in a daze, and cursed: "Why don't you go quickly?" Wang Xing hurriedly recovered and went down to convey Yang Dezheng's order. After the soldiers of the Fuxing Infantry arrived, they began to divide the grain and cattle and sheep. Then they escorted the grain, drove the cattle and sheep, and went to relieve the disaster according to the area that Yang Dezheng had divided before.
Of course, in addition to disaster relief, they also had other orders.
First, they have to be responsible for comforting people everywhere and helping them return to normal life.
Second, select craftsmen who are skilled in craftsmanship and send them to Fengzhou City.
Third, recruit troops to expand the size of the revival infantry.
Fourth, all those who take the opportunity to cause chaos and commit crimes will be arrested and sent to Chenjiakou to build a wall.
…
Yang Dezheng gave them eighteen orders to calm the people. The eight thousand revival infantry are not many, but they can be taken care of all over Fengzhou.
that's all. The large quantities of grain, grass, cattle and sheep brought by Zhe Yuxun were divided up. When Yang Dezheng accompanied Zhe Yuxun to the gate of Fengzhou City. Wang Xing has already led his people to help the victims at the gate of Fengzhou City. Wang Xing summoned a large number of women from the city and divided them into three groups.
A group of people pushing stone mills were grinding wheat for disaster relief into powder. A group of people, with the help of more than a dozen strong soldiers, were killing cattle and sheep. There was a batch left, and twenty cauldrons were set up and divided into two sides.
While the meat is cooking, make the gnocchi. The common people held bowls and stepped forward to serve rice. The people of Fengzhou lived a very difficult life under the strong rule of the party members, so they did not dare to rob randomly. They all lined up obediently.
A small half bowl of gnocchi, three or two fist-sized pieces of meat, a spoonful of broth, and a pinch of salt. A bowl of hot rice was delivered to the people. Many people were holding bowls, eating and crying. Wang Xing seemed to be very experienced in disaster relief. He served rice to the people. Each person only had one bowl. He would never give more than one bowl. Zhe Yuxun looked at the disaster relief scene and seemed to be very interested. He laughed happily and said: "Look at these gnocchi, the common people eat them very deliciously. I haven't eaten gnocchi for a long time, so let's not go to the city lord's mansion to eat them. How about eating here with the common people?"
Yang Dezheng was stunned, then smiled and said, "I'll listen to you." Wang Xing saw Yang Dezheng from a distance and saw Yang Dezheng walking towards this side. Wang Xing shouted at the top of his lungs: "You dirty ghosts, stay away. My general is here. I don't know what good you dirty ghosts are. My general tried his best to save you from the hands of the party members." Came down.
Now I will not only give you food, but also meat. This is the kind of virtue you can accumulate in eight lifetimes. "Wang Xing rudely drove away the refugees in front of him and asked them to go to other pots to find food. He rubbed his hands and walked to Yang Qi with a smile.
"General, why are you here?" Yang Dezheng said with a smile: "General Zhe is very restless and wants to taste some gnocchi." Wang Xing exclaimed exaggeratedly: "These are all for those dirty ghosts. With your status, how can you get used to this?" Yang Dezheng glared at him and said, "Just do whatever I ask you to do, why do you talk so much." Wang Xing grinned and said, "I have to let you do it. These filthy ghosts remember the kindness of the general. Otherwise, if they are ungrateful in the future and blame others for their food, it will be unjustifiable."
Yang Dezheng pointed at Wang Xing dumbfounded. Wang Xing welcomed Yang Dezheng, Zhe Yuxun and his party into a temporary tent. Then he quickly prepared a bowl of noodles for Yang Dezheng and Zhe Yuxun. Zhe Yuxun picked up the gnocchi and took a bite. He thought it was okay, so he ate it with big mouthfuls. He even ordered Wang Xing to prepare a bowl for each of his soldiers and horses.
Yang Dezheng didn't have a good appetite. After taking a bite, he couldn't eat it anymore. The cooked gnocchi was slimy and a bit hard. It's like rice cake, but not as sticky as rice cake. The mutton soup in the bowl has a strong smell. So Yang Dezheng couldn't eat it.
It's not that Yang Dezheng is being pretentious, but the mutton soup without any added aniseed tastes really delicious. Yang Dezheng could only push his wrist aside and watch Zhe Yuxun eat. Zhe Yuxun ate three large bowls in a row with a look of unfulfilled satisfaction. Yang Dezheng's mouth twitched.
"After eating and drinking, it's time to get down to business." Zhe Yuxun burped, took out a piece of bright silk from his arms, and handed it to Yang Dezheng. After just one glance, Yang Dezheng understood the origin of this thing. There was no expression on Zhe Yuxun's face, which made Yang Qi feel a little uneasy. Yang Qi unfolded the yellow silk cloth, took a look, and smiled.
"Hahahahaha..." Zhe Yuxun rolled his eyes and said coldly: "For this thing, my Zhe family has spent a lot of money." Yang Dezheng held the yellow silk cloth and said with a smile: "I have this thing. Now, it's worth spending no matter how much money you spend." It's easy to guess what the yellow silk cloth in Yang Dezheng's hand is.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
