Gao Yanei was finally dressed neatly, and under the protection of a dozen old coaches and old Yuhou from the "Gao Family Class", he climbed to the top of Yanjin City.
Why is it "Gaojiaban"?
After all, Gao Yanei was Gao Qiu's son, and Gao Qiu had been the leader of the Sanyamen Army for many years. Although Gao Qiu could neither fight nor train troops. But he is not a loser, otherwise Zhao Ji would not reuse him!
Gao Qiu's military administration emphasized a lively, bustling, colorful and prosperous atmosphere. The formal formations of the Forbidden Army he created were not enough, but they were able to play with all kinds of fancy tricks very smoothly. When Zhao Ji went to review the imperial army, it was very lively. Not to mention the playing and playing, there were also various military performances, such as big flags, lions and leopards, swords, wild cards, gods and ghosts, dramas, etc. It was fun. Got it! He can make Zhao Ji happy every time.
Of course, Gao Qiu cannot handle all these affairs by himself. He must have a group of good brothers to help him... And the middle and high-level people in the Forbidden Army are either heroes from the Western Army or nobles passed down from their ancestors. , who will accompany Gao Qiu to play a hundred games?
Therefore, those who helped Gao Qiu make trouble were a group of petty officials such as Dujiaotou, Jiang Yuhou and Yuan Yuhou. Although it is difficult for this group of people to be promoted to the horizontal class, under the protection of Captain Gao, they still have an envoy. You don't have to go to the battlefield to follow Captain Gao, you can still enjoy the popular food and drink in Kaifeng Mansion, and you can also command the soldiers of the Forbidden Army to do business. Don't live a comfortable life!
However, the military attachés and the civil servants in the court looked down upon these people, and they all called them "Gao Family Ban" behind their backs... not Gao Family Generals and Gao Family Army, but Gao Family Class Bans. . Just treat them as a troupe to make Daojun and Emperor happy!
But Gao Qiu and his group of men didn't care. The troupe was just a troupe, as long as the officials liked it.
It's a pity that once the emperor and his courtiers are the same!
As soon as Zhao Ji retreated, Gao Qiu's good days immediately came to an end and he was sent out as a palace envoy.
Without the protection of Lieutenant Gao, these old brothers who had followed Gao Qiu for many years were all in trouble. They could not survive in the Sanya Forbidden Army, or they followed Gao Qiu and left their hometowns to the southeast in order to seek peace and security. Either keep Gao Yanei and go to Yanjin County to defend the city and gain fame and a future... Of course, it is not to gamble with the Jin people with their lives, but to bet on luck. If the Jin people see that the Yanjin city defense is strong, they will not Coming to fight?
Not counting Kaifeng City and Jinming City, there are a total of 72 fortified cities in Kaifeng Mansion. Of course, it is impossible for the gold thieves to capture them all.
Therefore, the real opponents of these cities are not gold thieves, but friendly forces!
Theoretically, as long as they are more reliable than friendly forces, they can survive this disaster.
Therefore, in the past few months, these 72 small towns in Kaifeng Prefecture have all been building and strengthening like crazy, for fear of being outcompeted by their "peers"... This is a battle that cannot be lost. The game!
Among these 72 cities, Yanjin City is definitely in the first echelon!
Because the group of Gao family masters who follow Gao Yamen have been military masters for half their lives. Although they have never fought in a war, several of them are slightly famous contractors in Kaifeng Prefecture. In addition to Gao Taiwei's imperial army, Even though they engage in all kinds of fancy "shows of various armies and hundreds of things", they are still the best engineering team in Kaifeng Prefecture!
For example, Lu Qian, who now follows Gao Yanei, and Lu Tiha, were the famous "Gong Yuhou" back then. He had a share in the major projects of Yanfu Palace and Gen Yue.
Yanjin City has been transformed by his hands. Isn't the quality still top-notch?
In addition to the strong city, the Baojia Minzhuang of Yanjin City are also well trained. Because Gao Yanei also brought a commander of the Forbidden Army to Yanjin to take office... It was Lin Tiha, whose single name was "Chong" and was nicknamed "Leopard Head". He was the commander of the Forbidden Army under Gao Qiu. The instructor specializes in training showmanship for Gao Qiu!
Don't think that this isn't your skill... If you can train a group of veteran soldiers who are just waiting for death to become showy soldiers, and even pull them out to show off, you are definitely capable!
Under his training, Minzhuang, who is now standing up and down Yanjin City, really has a prominent chest and protruding belly, and he is also wearing paper armor that looks similar to a walking armor!
In addition, there are many flags on the top of Yanjin City, which are particularly dazzling. There is also a big identification flag with four big characters tattooed on it - Little Taiwei Gao!
I don’t know if Yanjin City’s defenses deceived the gold thieves. The thousands of gold soldiers who had just crossed the river did not immediately launch an offensive. Instead, they formed a large group between Yanjin City and the official road to Sanshan Floating Bridge. At the same time, some Alis were busy setting up camp. The camp was basically set up. Although it was simple, it was still neat.
"...Why is there another little Captain Gao? What is the relationship between this guy and Captain Gao? Did he meet Captain Gao's son? This city looks very strong, and there are many flags on the wall. , the defenders seem to be quite large, can they be defeated? How about trying somewhere else?"
The person who was talking naggingly was Wanyan Zonghan's second son, Wanyan Xiebao, known as "Crow Langjun".
"Xie Bao, can you please stop saying a few words?" Wanyan Sheye immediately turned to look at his fat brother, frowning, "If the defender of the city is really Gao Qiu's son, then we have to capture Yanjin even more City!
Otherwise, with such a nail stuck in our butt, can we still safely attack Feng Mansion? "
After being criticized by his brother, "Crow Langjun" really didn't dare to say anything more... He is the second child and has grown up under his brother's "teaching" since he was a child. How can he dare to argue back with his brother?
Yin Shuke on the side asked Wanyan Sheye immediately and said: "Da Langjun, the camp is almost set up... Should we let Ali Xi rush in for a while to test it out?"
Wan Yanshe immediately shook his head and said, "After setting up camp, we will rest first."
"That's fine," Yin Shuke nodded, "recharge your batteries overnight and attack the city in one go tomorrow."
Wanyan Sheye immediately shook his head: "We have to build equipment tomorrow... The villages in Yanjin County have been burned down, and the fields are also deserted. It seems that we can't find a single man to fill the trenches. So. To conquer the city of Yanjin, we need to build carts, rams, and cannons! Although we can't build many in one day, it's better than nothing."
After he said this, he turned to Xiabao and said, "Xiebao, I leave the making of the equipment to you. You have many craftsmen in Meng'an, so you can do this."
Wanyan Xiabao glanced at Yin Shuke - he was now Yin Shuke's subordinate, not his brother Sheyema's subordinate.
Yin Shuke nodded lightly, and Xie Bao patted his chest and said, "It's all on my little brother."
Yin Shuke then said to Shi Yema: "There is only one day left...can we capture Yanjin?"
Wan Yanshe immediately smiled and said: "What does the Han people's art of war say? One burst of strength, then it will weaken, and three times it will be exhausted! In my opinion, the side that is being beaten is the other way around. The most fearful is when you are beaten at the beginning. The second time you get beaten is better, but the third time you won’t be so scared. If we can’t succeed in Yanjin on the first day, then it will be even harder to beat us in the next one. We don’t have to break out and attack elsewhere...anyway As long as we capture a castle on the bank of the Yellow River, we will have a foothold, food and drink, and enough pennies to fill the trenches!"
Yin Shuke nodded again and showed an appreciative smile: "Okay! He is indeed the eldest prince's legitimate son, and the eldest prince has someone to succeed him!"
Shi Yema also smiled proudly, and then glanced at the golden-armored general standing under the huge flag at the top of Yanjin City from a distance, thinking: This person should be Captain Xiao Gao, right? If I can kill him, then I will be the first person in my generation... I may not have the chance to become a master in the future!
...
When Gao Yaoqing saw the Jurchen cavalry who had just started fighting entered the camp again, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to his left and right: "The golden thief has retreated, I have to live!"
Lu Tiha and Lin Tiha on both sides frowned and could only smile bitterly after hearing Gao Yanei's words.
"Don't worry in the office...Although the gold thieves have not really retreated, our Yanjin City is still very strong, so they still have to spend some time to build equipment. We should be stable for two or three days."
The speaker was Lin Chong and Lin Tiha... His wife was not abducted by Gao Yaoqing. He was about the same age as Gao Qiu. His wife was already an aunt, while Gao Yanei was still a young man who was blind. Go grab an aunt. Why take it back? Be a mother or a baby mother?
"Only two or three days..." Gao Yanei looked even more frightened after listening to Lin Chong's comforting words.
Only two or three days left to live!
"It can be defended!"
Lu Tiha hurriedly comforted Gao Yanei and said: "The city of Yanjin is so strong that it can be defended for at least half a month!"
You can live for more than half a month... This is really good news!
"What about half a month later?" Gao Yanei asked weakly.
"In less than half a month, the gold thieves will retreat." Lin Chong seemed confident, "There are not as many cities around Kaifeng Mansion as ours, so the gold thieves will not fight for half a month."
This is the way for a dead Taoist friend to avoid dying as a poor Taoist...
Gao Yanei still refused to give up and asked again: "Can I still leave?"
Lin Chong shook his head: "The gold thieves have many horses and are good at fighting in the field. If they abandon the city and run away, they will be captured. For the current plan, we can only defend to the end."
"Yes," Lu Qian also said, "The only one we can rely on is Yanjin."
Gao Yanei sighed: "I only have three or two days to live...there is no need to live carefully. Take out all the delicious food and drinks stored in the house and distribute them to the soldiers and civilians guarding the city. Delicious food will be served." After a few meals, you’ll be full to death!”
He was about to die, and his conscience realized that he was actually willing to share the good things he had worked so hard to bring from Kaifeng Mansion to everyone.
Lin Chong and Lu Qian glanced at each other, and they both felt that something was going on, so they shouted together: "The little captain has an order, treat everyone to a good meal and drink today, and everyone will have a reward... If we can win... , the imperial court has rewards, distribute them to everyone! Fight hard, everyone! Kill the gold thieves and protect your homeland!"
At this time, the top of Yanjin City was filled with handsome men. When they heard that they were eating, drinking and being rewarded, they all shouted: "Kill the gold thief and protect our homeland!"
