"Have you ever heard of me, Changzhou Guo Ning?" the young man asked curiously.
With this young man standing in front of him, Guo Yao'er felt a huge threat.
If an ordinary warrior were here, the reaction would not be so violent, but Guo Yao'er is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. The keenness he had honed on the battlefield allowed him to clearly sense the murderous intent of this young man.
The young man's behavior was leisurely, but he seemed to be about to explode at any moment. And what shines in his eyes is that he has taken many lives under his hands, so much so that he treats people like chickens and dogs!
It turns out that he is Changzhou Guo Ning!
Such a character is worthy of being a ruthless character who struggled in the fighting of the Mongolian cavalry. It is no wonder that the defeated soldiers from all over the place mentioned his name so much that Xiao Haohu regarded him as a thorn in his side. It's no wonder that after this man was frustrated, he rushed to Anyang Pass overnight to chop off Xiao Haohu's head, but hundreds of Xi troops did not dare to stop him!
Such people are like a man-eating tiger entrenched in the Xijun River, and they will definitely become a big trouble. Tang Kuo hit that guy together, but he was right this time!
As for the current situation, I understand it very well. This Guo Ning is not an ordinary man, but an invisible leader with great appeal in the rout. Originally, the defeated soldiers were scattered all over the place, each seeking survival, like a ball of scattered sand, but once someone rashly attacks these defeated soldiers, this evil tiger will definitely be provoked.
After all, Marshal Yang's grasp of the subtle situations in various places in Hebei was not as good as when he was in Shandong. He had previously planned to capture Guo Ning with a small number of men to stabilize Tang Kuo's joint attack... which was too much.
This person easily gathered his strength and captured Ji Junli's headquarters, and now he wants to negotiate terms with me...
What does he want from me?
In any case, if his conditions are detrimental to Marshal Yang, then it must not be done!
Thinking of this, Guo Yao'er forced himself to calm down and sneered: "Guo Liulang, I won't hide it from you. You killed people randomly in Gaoyangguan, Anzhou, and now it's happened!"
Guo Ning was stunned for a moment: "It's true that we killed a few people, but what if it happened?"
"You dare to touch the imperial officials without permission. The crime is not small. Now you gather a crowd to fight against the imperial army? My family is stationed in Dingxing, the headquarters of the Shuntian Army Jiedu Envoy in Baozhou, and the Yongding Military Festival in Xiongzhou All the envoys and subordinates will send out troops to destroy you and others! Guo Liulang, I know your name and methods, but I advise you, don’t regret it when you are cornered!"
I have to say that Guo Yao'er is really a smart man. Even in this embarrassing situation, he tried his best to maintain his momentum and not fall behind. As a veteran military officer, he displayed a certain dignity.
But Guo Ning couldn't help laughing.
Unlike Yang An'er's subordinates, Guo Ning can be regarded as half a host in the Hebei states. He knew all the details of the surrounding armies and Yang An'er's troops, so Guo Yao'er's threats were particularly ridiculous.
He smiled happily for a long time, and Guo Yao'er couldn't help but get angry: "Guo Liulang, why are you laughing?"
"The bragging I am laughing at is too fake."
Guo Ning shook his head: "The Baozhou Shuntian Army was completely wiped out by the Mongolian army at the North Mountain of Yehuling the year before last. The Shuntian Army's military commander Jiagu Asa died on the spot. I saw it with my own eyes. Since last year, Baozhou's grain-shooting army, prison army and even the local soldiers under the inspection team have all been transferred to the Xuande front line. Now there are no more than 200 men in Baozhou who can fight. , is a mediocre scholar who can only collect money."
Guo Yao'er said "Hey", waiting to say something.
Guo Ning ignored him and continued: "As for the Yongding Army in Xiongzhou, there were originally many elite soldiers. But last year, the imperial court organized an army of one million to rescue Datong Mansion in Xijing, and the Yongding Army was the backbone of it. Later, they were defeated in the first battle. There are more than two thousand people on foot and cavalry, and not a single one of them can survive. At this time, Bode Zhangnu, who is temporarily acting as the Yongding Army, is afraid of chaos in the country, so how can he have the spare strength to send troops?"
"As for the Tiewa Ganzhan Army stationed in Yongxing, Zhuozhou..." Guo Ning stared at Guo Yao'er and said slowly: "Do you think I don't know Yang Dutong's plan?"
Guo Yao'er's face changed slightly, and he said reluctantly: "I don't understand what Guo Liulang said."
Fortunately, Guo Ning didn't worry about this. He just said contemptuously: "In short, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Guo Ning turned to ask Guo Jie'er again: "These are the only things you can threaten me and my brothers Pao Ze. However, the soldiers who retreated from northern Xinjiang to Hebei are distributed in Zhuo, An, Xiong, Bao and Ansu. Do you know how many people there are in several states and how many departments they are divided into?"
Yang An'er dared to attack the defeated troops in various places, so he naturally worked hard on this information. Guo Yao'er was his confidant, and he also knew the information that Yang An'er knew. But Guo Yao'er snorted coldly and said nothing, because no matter what, he would never know the situation better than Guo Ning.
Just listen to Guo Ning continue: "Do you know how many of these people are warriors who have been in frequent conflicts and fought with powerful enemies for more than a hundred rounds? How many of these people are because of Yang Dutong's attack?" Do you know how many of these people have already prepared their troops and are about to send troops to Dingxing County to demand justice from Yang An'er and put your heads on the line? Do you know? Do you know how many people came to the Gucheng store with me?"
When he said this, Guo Ning's voice became fierce, and murderous intent suddenly arose.
The two servants behind Guo Yao'er were forced by his ferocious expression and took a step forward at the same time, drawing their swords on guard.
The next moment, two arrows flew from the dark night and plunged deeply into the ground a few feet in front of him.
Guo Yao'er looked back at the servants, telling them not to panic, and then turned back.
Facing Guo Ning's loud scolding, he remained silent for a long time, and then said: "Guo Liulang, just now you said that we are here to negotiate terms. If you want to talk, let's talk; if you want to fight, I, Tie Wa, dare to fight and the army is willing." Please accompany me."
Guo Ning looked at Guo Qian'er.
The most senior officer in the army was short in stature and had a wrinkled face. Under the illumination of the surrounding pine torches, his face was covered with deep lines, like cracked earth, so that no matter what his true expression was, outsiders could not see any change.
Whether what Guo Ning said could shake this person's judgment is hard to say.
Guo Ning is familiar with the surrounding situation, that's true. But Yang An'er suddenly launched an attack, and the defeated troops in various places responded hastily. For a while, it was not as violent as Guo Ning said. Just as Guo Yaoer was bluffing and trying to deceive, so was Guo Ning.
Since Guo Jie'er is not wavering at all, he has some things to say, so there is no need to say them too much.
After all, these are troubled times, and human life is the lowest value. Many people do not take their own lives seriously. The tactics of rebellion have been the same for thousands of years, and Guo Ning can't demand that Yang An'er be soft and courteous.
To take a step back, the goal of the Tiewa Ganzhan Army is rebellion, and their enemy is the entire Dajin court. Guo Ning even regards it as his own precursor to enter Shandong in the future. If we gather our strength to fight a fierce battle with him at this time, we will appear to be loyal to our family and give the imperial court an advantage.
Guo Ning stretched out two fingers and slowed down his tone: "Two conditions."
"Speaking."
"First, Han Renqing of Guchengdian is my close colleague. I know that his companions, relatives, and some of my subordinates who are still trapped in Guchengdian, please release them back. Secondly, From today on, any action of the Tiewa Ganzhan Army cannot cross the line between Guchengdian and the Qihe River. Within Zhuozhou, if soldiers from northern Xinjiang flee south with their families, the Tiewa Ganzhan Army cannot stop them."
Guo Ning withdrew his two fingers and clenched his fists: "If we do these two things, we will return your forty-six prisoners. The two families will have nothing to do with each other from now on. If you want to rebel, just do it."
Guo Yao'er lowered his head and thought for a long time. When he raised his head again, his expression was simply helpless.
"The second condition is not something I can decide. If you are willing, Guo Liulang, and you are still in this Gucheng shop one day later, we will send out a person of sufficient importance to have a detailed discussion with you."
Guo Ning smiled and nodded: "So, what's the first condition?"
"It can't be done."
"What?"
"Han Renqing's subordinates, eleven members of his clan, and four of your subordinates were killed by us just now when they tried to escape." Guo Yao'er sighed.
Those fifteen people were naturally killed by Yang You.
There was no hatred between the Tiewa Ganzhan Army and the defeated forces, and they would not have acted like this originally. What's more, Marshal Yang hopes to gather the defeated troops for his own use. Even if he attacked everywhere yesterday, killing people was just a means of intimidation, not the purpose. But Jiulangjun is used to being arrogant and just wants to make quick moves and rarely thinks too much. Who would have thought that at this time, fifteen lives would become an obstacle between the two families?
Guo Yao'er once thought about hiding it, but he couldn't hide it for long. Guo Liulang is not easy to get along with, and there will be no chance of further troubles when the time comes. Therefore, it is better to tell frankly.
Since Guo Ning has conditions to negotiate, there is room for maneuver. As for the prisoners, they are just small people. Is it possible that Tiewa dares to fight against the enemy and is still afraid of owing this extra life?
When he said these words, Guo Ning frowned and asked word by word: "Kill them all? No one left alive?"
Guozhaoer nodded.
"well."
Guo Ning suddenly turned around, returned to the huddled prisoners in two steps, and pulled out the iron bone flower hanging from his waist with his backhand.
The next moment, Tie Guduo fell down with strong wind, and with a muffled "pop" sound, it smashed the brains of one of Ji Junli's subordinates.
Guozhao'er never thought that this person would turn against him so quickly, without any sign at all!
He was almost dumbfounded, watching Guo Ning wave the Iron Bone Flower once, twice, and three times. With each blow, a soldier who was familiar with Guo Yao'er and was the backbone of Tiewa's fighting army had his head shattered and died.
There are only a few hundred such soldiers under Marshal Yang. In Shandong, everyone can be an officer! Guozhao'er's eyes were almost split open. Seeing that Tie Guduo was about to swing for the fourth time, he suddenly took two steps forward and shouted in a hissing voice: "Slow down!"
How could Guo Ning wait for him? The Iron Bone Duo hammer fell down with a bang, and another person was killed.
Guo Ning wiped the blood spattered on his face with his left hand. He raised Tieguduo with his right hand and pointed at Guo Yao'er: "Kill these four first and save the life of my subordinates. Go back and find someone who can make the decision tomorrow. Come here Talk to me!"
