The soldiers of the Jin Army were already exhausted, and seeing their generals leaving regardless, their morale had collapsed. The fourth wave of offensives from Taishan's ministries immediately came forward, and they were immediately broken into pieces. On the entire battlefield, there were only a small number of Jin Army soldiers still fighting despite being trapped, and small-scale fighting was still going on.
They were immediately surrounded by red-coated troops from all directions. The earth-yellow tide dispersed as soon as it gathered, leaving only corpses and blood flowing everywhere on the ground. But experienced soldiers all know that victory is decided. Many of the soldiers at the front stopped killing and forced the enemy with swords and guns, and began to shout:
"The Jurchens have run away! Why are you selling your lives?"
"Drop your weapons, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
"Don't fight, don't fight, we are from the same hometown! Listen, listen!"
The commotion on the battlefield temporarily overwhelmed the sound of fighting, but the hillock where the Chinese army was located was unusually quiet.
Shi Qing closed his open mouth and Gudu swallowed. He looked at Second Patriarch Liu and found that Second Patriarch Liu was also confused, then looked at the other generals present, and finally came back to Monk Luo: "This, this...Master Huifeng?"
"Huh? When you were old, you asked me if you had anything to do. Why are you spinning like a top?"
"Yes. I want to ask, did Peng Yibin take people to Guide Mansion?"
"That's right!"
"this……"
"In the old days, if Xuzhou was regarded as the gateway to the Central Plains, Guide Mansion was the first frontier of the Central Plains. It was the transportation hub to the east of Kaifeng and the base for the forwarding and transportation of grain and materials. . Although the Kaifeng court is poor, there are always some goods that are hidden in the bottom of the box. At this moment, since most of Wanyan Bi’s men have been wiped out by us, since Lao Peng is the vanguard, why not rush to seize Guide Mansion? "
Having said this, Monk Luo asked Second Patriarch Liu: "It has been four days since we invaded Nanjing Road. Even if Kaifeng reacts slower, the troops sent to support us should be halfway there, right?"
Liu Erzu nodded: "Of the thirteen captains directly under the Kaifeng Mansion, eight captains have been involved in the battle with the Southern Dynasties. However, there are still five captains stationed around Kaifeng, among which the gangsters stationed in Qixian County Commander Wanyan Wuli's troops must be on the way to reinforce and will arrive at Guide Mansion tomorrow. In addition, Commander Zhenwu Nahehe's troops were originally stationed in Haozhou and were previously ordered to go to Suzhou to follow Marshal Wanyan Sai from the south. No. Once we learn that there are changes in Xuzhou, this department will go directly north to supplement the troops and should enter Guide Mansion within two or three days. I also heard..."
Liu Erzu was the leader of the rebel bandits second only to Yang An'er back then. Even though he later hid in the mountains, his understanding of the situation on Nanjing Road was not as good as that of Xu Jin, but he was far better than everyone else. He is a bit older, and he tends to be a bit nagging when he starts talking.
Shi Qing coughed repeatedly, interrupting Liu Erzu's words.
"Ahem, Master Huifeng, let's not talk about why Lao Peng went to Guide Mansion, nor how important Guide Mansion is... Did you just say that he led the horse for Duke Zhou?"
"Yep."
"Since Lao Peng is in Guide Mansion...how can he lead the horse for Duke Zhou?"
Monk Luo looked at Shi Qing up and down, as if looking at a fool: "Of course it's because Zhou Guogong is also in Guide Mansion. When Jufan marches and fights, Zhou Guogong always dares to be the vanguard of the three armies. Peng Yibin wants to be the vanguard? Haha. , on this trip, he can at most serve as a follower to Duke Zhou."
Monk Luo acted as he should, and the surrounding generals just looked at each other in shock.
No one doubted what Monk Luo said. This fat monk had dealt with many leaders of Mount Tai in the past two years and never lied.
Everyone knows that Guo Ning came from a humble background, so he is known for his bold and frivolous behavior. However, the red-coated soldiers themselves are also life-threatening thieves, and they are not easily convinced by others. Previously, Guo Ning came to Xiong'er Mountain in person and made an agreement with Liu Erzu to send troops. It can be said that the two families had a tacit understanding for a long time, and they just needed to clarify the distinction between master and slave.
He came as soon as he came, but no one seemed to particularly admire him for it.
Guo Ning crossed the Yellow River with others, and after arriving in Xuzhou, he gave the task of leading the troops to fight to Monk Luo and Erzu Liu. All the generals thought that Duke Zhou was bold in strategy but prudent in tactics, and would be strategizing behind the army.
It turned out that everyone was wrong. Duke Zhou was bold in strategy and ten times more bold in tactics. He was so frivolous that people wanted to curse him. As soon as the main force of the army passed through Dangshan Mountain, he took Peng Yibin forward for 210 miles, passed Wanyanbi's men and horses, and then arrived at Guide Mansion?
Why did he go to Guide Mansion? How many people are there around him? What is he going to do with Guide Mansion?
The place in Guide Mansion must be occupied as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Jin reinforcements arrive, they will immediately turn Guide Mansion into an unbreakable bone. But how could there be any reason for the commander-in-chief of one's own force to personally come forward in such a matter?
Guo Ning's status is already so valuable, why does he still do this? Just because he doesn't change his reckless habits? Because he wants to have fun?
No one knows, no one is mentally prepared.
Some people secretly whispered that the lord everyone was about to pledge allegiance to acted in such a flamboyant and fierce style. If something happened, wouldn't everyone's expression of loyalty be in vain?
After a while, a general muttered from behind the crowd: "That's Duke Zhou! How can a man who is only one or two steps away from becoming emperor risk his life with thieves like us? This is simply...sigh, you villain. I’m really impressed.”
He raised his thumb in the air and said, "Duke Zhou, this is it!"
This action is often used by green forest heroes in Shandong, Hebei and other places to praise their partners. Now when it was used on the powerful ministers who controlled half of the Great Jin Kingdom, everyone knew it was absurd, but everyone nodded along with it, feeling concerned.
I have to admit that Monk Luo really knows Guo Ning very well.
He said that Guo Ning asked Peng Yibin to lead the horse for him, and Guo Ning actually did so.
Not only did he let Peng Yibin lead the horse, Guo Ning was also very rude to him. He stuck out his foot from the stirrup and kicked his shoulder: "You should just leave. Why are you dazed? Haven't you been here before?"
I really haven't been here before, why are I stunned?
Peng Yibin couldn't laugh or cry, and he quickly led the horse diligently and led Guo Ning to the gap in the city gate.
The city gate was only half-open, and the light could not enter, making the city gate hole even more dark and deep. Guo Ning's yellow gelding horse stamped its hooves on the ground and shook its head. Peng Yibin spent a lot of effort before leading the horse in.
Behind Guo Ning is Xu Jin.
Seeing Guo Ning's figure disappearing into the city gate, he turned back, leaned over and said to a Mou Ke stationed at the city gate: "Don't complain, you are thrown into Guide Mansion at this time, who can do it?" Are you happy? In two days, we have to set off to fight! I heard that the Taishan bandits used tens of thousands of people to beat Xuzhou and Shanzhou until they were bloody and bloody!"
Saying this, he sighed, the sleeves of his military uniform shook slightly, and dropped a small handful of copper coins: "Take it, and treat the brothers to something good tonight! For the brothers who were injured, give them another dose of decoction." !”
The copper coins fell to the ground and immediately attracted the attention of many soldiers.
Just now, a soldier rashly came up to investigate, but Guo Ning slapped him with two big mouth scrapers, and his face was swollen as big as a pig's head. He reacted very quickly now and rushed over to pick up the money while shouting: "This is mine! I earned it!"
There was chaos at the gate of the city, Xu Jin ducked and entered the city, followed by the knights filing in.
The soldiers were still fighting for the copper coins. Muke, who was in charge of this place, took two steps back and said angrily: "The style is great, but it's not a hard job. If you want to fight, go quickly. Who are you going to take out on us?"
The companion next to him asked: "Where did this group of people come from? They don't look easy to mess with."
"I don't know. If you want to ask, you go and ask. If you come back with two mouth scrapers, don't blame me!"
Before Marshal Wanyan led his people to Xuzhou, he specifically ordered the generals who wanted to return to Defu to strictly guard the city and not make any mistakes. No city gates are allowed to be opened unless there are special circumstances. However, it is one thing to give orders from above, but another thing to do specifically at the bottom. The battlefield is still two to three hundred miles away. If you have to be surprised, isn't it to torment your own people?
The companion looked at the fierce appearance of those knights and shrank his head: "I won't ask." The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please use your little hand to exit the reading mode. Thanks
Some people died, but not completely...
