Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Uncle Good or Bad
On the third day of the siege, the city walls in Ganzhou were dilapidated like an abandoned city that had been abandoned for a thousand years.
The defense of Ganzhou City cannot be compared with Xiazhou and Yinzhou.The closer the place is to the core of the civilization of the Central Plains, the more typical the urban architectural style is in the Central Plains. On the grassland, even a hundred years ago, even the place where the Great Khan was grazing was nothing more than a patch of tents. Walk and go, migrating across the entire grassland, so their fighting style has always been offensive, using offense instead of defense. The weaker side will either fight the opponent on the grassland, or use the vast desert grassland to escape. There is no such thing as According to the statement of the city and keep.
Today, the Khitan people have developed from a tribal alliance regime of the Huns and Turks to an imperial regime and began to build fortresses.These cities on the Hexi Corridor were also built early because of the prosperity of the Western Regions since the Han and Tang Dynasties, but the defensive effect of these cities was actually very limited.
Yang Hao was sure that he would break through Ganzhou's defenses and enter Ganzhou City on the second day, but he did not reveal his powerful siege capabilities. Many heavy siege equipment and sharp long-range weapons were just for the purpose of suppressing the city. The defenders tried to minimize their own casualties, and he had no intention of forcibly breaking through the city.
Huihe in Ganzhou is an independent kingdom, and the majority of its residents are Huihe people. Yang Hao’s influence here is limited. If he breaks through forcefully and enters the city, the army defending the city will change from 60,000 to all the people, and the wear and tear of street fighting will be even greater. Seriously, Huihe in Ganzhou is still mainly nomadic and has strong mobility. Once the city of Ganzhou is broken and the Khan dies in battle, the tribes will take advantage of the chaos to break out and escape. At that time, it will be difficult to hunt and surrender It will be bigger, and it will take two or three years at the earliest to allow these wild horses to return one by one.
Therefore, Yang Hao suppressed the siege firepower. Ganzhou City is always in danger, but it can always survive. In this way, Yeluohe Khan and Huihe soldiers and civilians always maintain a trace of fantasy in their hearts, sticking to their royal city .
As the siege continued, Yang Hao sat cross-legged in a huge white felt tent cart pulled by eighteen oxen. In front of the cart stood a big banner with a wolf's head and nine yak tails. Soldiers launched attack after attack in an orderly manner.
"Woo~~~~, woo~~~"
A desolate trumpet sounded suddenly, and Mu Yu rode over, shouting: "My lord, the Huihe reinforcements are here. There are seven or eight thousand people in the northwest direction."
A smile appeared on Yang Hao's lips: "Well done, after waiting for them for three days, it's finally here."
He immediately shook his clothes and shouted loudly: "Order: Mu En led the army to intercept, Ai Yihai and Mu Kui quickly outflanked the two wings of the reinforcements, and prepared to suppress them. Zhang Pu, He Bining, Li Huating and others all defended their own formations, suspended the attack and changed their attack To defend, prevent Ye Luohe from sending troops to respond. Immediately transfer the heavy armored cavalry and the Modao team, and line up at the gate of the northern city of Ganzhou!"
Following the order after order, the messengers beat horses like flying, galloping back and forth, each team was like a cog in the huge war machine in Yang Hao's hands, biting each other tightly, and began to rotate rapidly.
The dust was flying in the distance, and a cavalry cavalry appeared from the northwest direction. Judging by their momentum, they planned to break through Yang Hao's army that was attacking the city in one go, and rush into the city while causing a lot of damage and chaos. If Yang Hao's attack on the city has already If you use all your strength, it is absolutely too late to respond immediately. While restraining the army, adjusting the rhythm, changing from offense to defense, and at the same time mobilizing sufficient troops to intercept.
This tactic of the Huihe people is not very clever, but it is absolutely effective. It is a fast word, which is the embodiment of the cavalry's maneuverability.
Huihe soldiers with high-nosed curly hair and murderous intent waved sharp swords and fought with Mu En's troops. Where the horseshoes flew, a large cloud of dust was stirred up, and the enemy and us were quickly wrapped in it. The dust billowed like two sky Army fighting in the clouds.
"Oh..., oh..."
Although there were only seven or eight thousand people in the reinforcement army, the appearance of the first support army greatly boosted the morale of the Huihe army defending the city. The Huihe people on the top of the city looked at the reinforcements approaching in the distance, cheered excitedly, and waved their knives and guns , Shouting happily, the whole Ganzhou city was excited for the appearance of King Qin's division. Ye Luohe immediately ordered Kaesong to respond, to cooperate from inside to outside, and launched a counterattack in the direction of Beicheng.
The noose of the suspension bridge was lowered creakingly, the heavy suspension bridge fell on the moat with a bang, and the city gate opened...
He Bining was attacking the northern city. As soon as he received General Yang Hao, he immediately called for gold and withdrew his troops. The reserve team quickly spread the horses and thorns on the front position. The attacking army abandoned the heavy siege equipment and just returned to the main formation Putting up a half-moon-shaped defensive formation, Yeluohe's Seventh Princess Aguli personally led five thousand elite soldiers and charged up the suspension bridge with a scimitar held high.
"Puff puff puff!" A bloody light burst out, and the Huihe warriors used their horses to forcibly bump into the repelling horse that had just been set up. When the horse neighed miserably and fell to the ground, the repelling horse spear with the tail of the gun deeply pressed into the sand was also hit. It was broken by a strong impact.
Immediately, Aguli, dressed in a white robe and covered with a white veil, rode a steed horse, brandished a scimitar in his hand, and rushed into He Bining's army like the wind against the strong arrow rain of the Xiazhou army.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" There was a clashing sound, the shadow of the sword and the light of the sword, Princess Aguli's body was wrapped in a large robe, and her graceful and charming body could not be seen, but she stepped on the stirrups, bent over The movements of body, face up, and side chopping, the charming and bewitching beauty can still be faintly visible in the fluttering of her clothes, the fierceness and femininity are perfectly blended together, the splash of blood is even more beautiful. Let her add a bit of charming magic.
Standing in the distance, Yang Hao also noticed the battle here. Seeing that it was a young woman who led the army to charge, her fierce and wild taste was even more fierce than many men on the grassland. Yang Hao subconsciously licked Lips, the sweet taste of wine on his lips: his grandma's, this woman... fierce.Just like the female horse bandit leader Gasalova in "Mirage", she is wild and fierce.
He Bining was standing in front of the battle, and he saw it more clearly. Seeing that the beautiful woman with big eyes covered with a white veil, only revealing a pair of charming and awe-inspiring looks, was so brave. , We are not allowed to forcibly break through the city before the enemy's momentum is exhausted, these Huihe women are so terrifying."
Seeing that the white-robed woman was like a broken bamboo, she had already led the army to break through the resisting horses and thorns, and charged into the front army, He Bining immediately went forward with a knife in hand...
Behind He Bining's army formation, Mo Dao formation and heavy armored cavalry have entered the position. One side away from the city, He Bining and Princess Aguli are fighting hard. On the northwest side, Mu En is leading his troops to stop Huihe's reinforcements. Mo Dao is in formation In the front, they leaned on the ground with their knives and stood on guard. The old soldiers behind began to put on their armor with the help of the soldiers, as if they were brides who were about to board the sedan chair.
Their combat advantages are obvious, but their disadvantages are also very obvious. Within a thousand steps, they can attack back and forth twice at most, and then they have to pant like cows and let others slaughter them, so the conditions suitable for them to fight are particularly harsh. In order to save manpower and horsepower, they will not put on battle armor until they are in combat, but it is undeniable that once they are given room to play calmly, their lethality is simply the Black Panther tank on the battlefield of cold weapons.
The sword is like a mountain, the spear is like a forest, and the sound of killing is loud.
A spear in Mu En's hand was drenched with blood. Although the guards tried their best to defend him, there were many wounds of varying severity on his body. If he rushed to the battle, the limited force in his hands would not be able to stop such a strong offensive.
Seeing that the heavy armored cavalry guarded by Mu En and He Bining had already dressed up, and the dust was flying in the distance, and the mobile light cavalry of Mu Kui and Ai Yihai had circled here, Yang Hao immediately ordered Mu En to withdraw his troops.The banner of the Chinese army issued a signal, Mu En's army began to retreat to the two sides, and the reinforcements broke through quickly after dropping more than a thousand corpses.
The show begins...
Yang Hao deliberately let them in and put them under the city of Ganzhou, so that all the royal families, nobles, leaders and soldiers in the city who rushed to the northern city of Ganzhou to watch the battle situation witnessed a massacre with their own eyes.
The heavy armored cavalry ignored the oncoming enemy troops and began to attack like heavy tanks. The arrows shot at their bodies, like being bitten by mosquitoes, and then bounced off, the arrow tips were blunt.The scimitar slashed on the armor, and amidst the resounding sparks, either the blade was broken, or the cavalry was blown away by the shock, while the heavy armored cavalry was like iron mountains, rumbling forward, hitting them all on their backs.
Behind the heavy armored cavalry, the Mo Dao fighters became a meat grinder. The Mo Dao fell one after another, reaping the lives of people and horses. As the Mo Dao waved, it strangled everything. A place of flesh and blood was left behind.
The people on the top of the city witnessed this massacre that they had never seen before. The Huihe reinforcements, who were on the offensive just now, were evenly matched with the Xiazhou army. With the cooperation of such two weird troops, they were like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. , completely powerless to fight back, seeing the horrific massacre scene, the faces of the people at the top of the city were ashen, and their hearts were about to burst...
The Xiazhou light cavalry squeezed up from both sides, forcing them to have no way to escape. The Huihe reinforcements could only bite the bullet and rush towards the oncoming iron mountain and knife wheel like moths, being crushed and crushed. After Mo Daoshou waded through the enemy group, the dense light cavalry on both sides closed up like guillotines, cleaning the battlefield and clearing away the last remnants of the enemy.
Standing at the top of the city, Ye Luohe watched helplessly as a huge reinforcement army, nearly seven or eight thousand people, was shattered under the horrific strangulation of the Xiazhou army until... the entire army was wiped out.
This is the complete annihilation in the true sense, not a single person was left alive, not even a few of the horses under their crotch survived. Looking at the place where thousands of people were running like tigers and horses like dragons just now, it is now a piece of red, a piece of shocking red, soaking the land.
Ye Luohe was so distraught that he even forgot to order the troops to withdraw, and the generals under him were also petrified. Their hearts suddenly fell from heaven to hell, from great joy to great sorrow, especially when they saw the Xiazhou army with their own eyes. The terrifying combat power that is impossible to resist in the face-to-face conflict, and the powerful shocking power of the soul, made it difficult for them to calm down for a long time.
The 5,000 soldiers and horses of Aguli under the city were still struggling. They couldn't see the situation ahead, and they were still trying their best to meet the reinforcements that would never arrive. Hu Zi trembled suddenly, and shouted in a mournful voice: "Retreat! Retreat!"
Everything they saw just now will turn into a nightmare, entangled in the dreams of each of them, and soon, through the mouths of thousands of people in the city, this nightmare will be sent to the hearts of the people of Ganzhou...
In the desert, a tent under the moon is like a grave. All around, the horses stood quietly, the camels lay down peacefully, and the soldiers gathered around piles of bonfires. The oppressive atmosphere made few people speak. In the tent, Yeluohe's eldest son, Prince Ali, and several tribal leaders sat cross-legged with serious expressions on their faces. The torches swayed endlessly in the wind, making their faces flickering. "No, we can't help Ganzhou right away. We have to wait for the reinforcements from other tribes to arrive, gather enough troops, and attack the troops besieging Ganzhou City from different directions at the same time, so that they can't take care of each other. That's the only way. Only then can we rush into the city and join the Great Khan." After Prince Ali finished speaking, he commanded in a deep voice: "From now on, we must save as much food as possible until more reinforcements arrive!" In Yang Hao's tent, all the generals gathered. Yang Hao said loudly: "In today's battle, the entire 7,000 reinforcements were annihilated in an instant, and there was no escape. Let the Ganzhou defenders witness with their own eyes. This kind of deterrence is unparalleled. It is difficult for them to have the confidence to charge forward. Come out of the city and fight us to the death. But the Huihe people will not just give up Ganzhou, let alone surrender. The only thing they can do is to use the wide corridor of Ganzhou city. We cannot quickly mobilize troops to help any place. Weaknesses, gather enough reinforcements, attack the cities at the same time, and try to join the defenders." Yang Hao smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, the next thing we have to do is to make them give up the decisive battle with me, and go to defend the city. If Ye Luohe wants to defend, let him guard the city to death. " The generals laughed, and Yang Hao pressed his knees and said: "If there are reinforcements again, release all the water and let them rush into the city to join Yeluohe. You should have already figured out what to do next, since they are willing to be killed by us. Let’s go by the nose, so let’s follow the steps and step by step. For the Yeluohe Khan in Ganzhou, we will not fight, but for the Longjia in Suzhou, we will fight but not besiege. Whether to intercept or not, the three cities will be carried out simultaneously." All the generals shouted loudly, Yang Hao said again: "Here, General Zhang Pu is left to take charge of the overall situation, and the three generals Ai Yihai, Mu En, and Li Huating..." The three clasped their fists together: "The end is here!" Yang Hao smiled slightly: "You guys, go to Suzhou with me, go back and prepare now, withdraw the troops overnight, and start tomorrow." All the generals responded respectfully, Yang Hao said: "Okay, I'm tired after fighting for days, everyone go back, from tomorrow on, just put on a show, and you can take turns to rest and recuperate." The generals led away, and Yang Hao picked up his tea and thought over his entire deployment again. He came to the west this time with an army of 80,000. The Wan Tufan army also brought out, and they needed a certificate of honor to go up the mountain to be a thief. There is no reason why these 20,000 new troops are more familiar with and adapted to the geography of the Western Regions than Xiazhou soldiers. The use of troops is sufficient, but this battle is very complicated. At the beginning, the sweeping of the Qiangs in Hengshan and the battle of Yinzhou were simple one-on-one battles. Later, when we fought against Li Guangrui, although we adopted the strategy of repairing plank roads in the open and crossing Chencang secretly , two fronts, one light and one dark, but still a one-on-one battle, but now it is very different. He wants to use the least casualty, adopt the least damaging method against the Hexi Corridor, and target three fronts at the same time, three different forces. The forces adopted three different strategies, and they had to be carried out simultaneously, so that Ganzhou could surrender without a fight. The complexity of it was far greater than all the wars he had experienced before. Ganzhou, Suzhou, Guazhou, Shazhou, and the heads of forces stationed in these places, as well as the relationship between them, were carefully filtered in Yang Hao's mind. With the sound of footsteps, Yang Hao opened his eyes, and saw a handsome young man with red lips, white teeth, and a peach-blossom face, walking into the tent. When Yang Hao opened his eyes, the white-robed young man opened his hands and turned lightly in front of him. Turning around, Yan Ran smiled and said, "Does it look good?" Xiaoyao scarf, emerald jade belt, climbing cloud shoes, white robe like snow, a pretty face with pink make-up and jade, eyebrows and eyes full like stars and moons, worthy of the reputation of a handsome young man in the world, but Yang Hao frowned and said: "It's getting late, why are you dressed like this?" The handsome young man said angrily, "You said you wanted to sneak to Suzhou secretly, and you wanted me to pretend to be you sitting here. I'll dress up for you to see." Yang Hao rubbed his nose, with an evil smile on his face: "Anyway, it's outsiders who are hiding the truth, so you don't need to be too cautious, but... Yanyan, you really have a special taste when you dress up like this." Tang Yanyan turned anger into joy, opened her robe sleeves, and said appreciatively, "Really? I just admired myself in the mirror, and I think it's very beautiful." Yang Hao smiled and said: "Yes, after seeing your current appearance, I suddenly understand why some dignitaries and celebrities like child molestation." Tang Yanyan made a puking expression and said, "Hey, hey, you must learn to be good, pampering children... so disgusting." Yang Hao said disapprovingly: "What's so disgusting? It is said that many celebrities like to moleste children, so they often choose some handsome young men to be children, studying ink and serving tea during the day, and at night..., hehe, very elegant." Tang Yanyan became nervous, rushed to his side, grabbed his hem and said, "You are not allowed to imitate them, or else...or else...you will not be allowed to touch me in the future." Yang Hao chuckled: "Why are you not allowed to touch you if you want to be a child molestor?" Tang Yanyan's face turned red, she pursed her lips and shook her head: "If you don't allow it, you don't allow it, what reason do you need?" Yang Hao said with a sly smile: "Oh..., Yanyan seems to understand what child molestation is. Has anyone in the Tang family raised a child molestation?" "Yes... no, no, no..." Tang Yanyan nodded just now when she suddenly woke up and shook her head vigorously. Yang Hao laughed, grabbed her soft waist, kissed her jade-like pink cheeks and said, "Don't worry, your officials won't like child molestation." Tang Yanyan wrinkled her nose and snorted, "That's about the same." Yang Hao chuckled, and said maliciously: "Because..., Yanyan, my family, dressed up, is more child molester than the most handsome child molester, why should the officials ride horses to find horses?" Tang Yanyan was so kissed by him that she raised her neck, her starry eyes blurred, and she panted delicately: "She...she is a real woman..." Yang Hao slid down against her flat and soft belly, gently unfastened her belt with the other hand, pressed against her ear, and whispered: "Of course you are a woman, and you are a very cute woman. Women serve men You can do the things you want to do. You can do the same thing as child molestation and serving men, Yan Yan, tonight, just be a child molestation officer, okay..." "No... not good..." Tang Yanyan blushed with embarrassment, and wanted to escape as soon as she opened his big hand, but just as she crawled out two steps like a puppy, Yang Hao clamped her hips and dragged her forcefully return. With a soft cry of "ah", her robe was lifted up, her buttocks were like a full moon, shining like jade. The wind blows the skirt, the butt is cool, and the chrysanthemum is chanted softly... Outside the huge white felt tented ox cart, a figure flitted up like a fright, and flew onto the big wolf-headed banner with nine tails of the yak. Plugging his ears, he said with shame, "Uncle is a bad person..."
Caochengchuan, Kelan defense envoy. In the study room, the mysterious guest said with a soft smile: "General Chi is willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and the official family is very happy. Now you and I are planning a big move, and we only need to take the prefecture. This prefecture will be controlled by one side. Big official, it’s in your pocket. There is no limit to the glory, wealth, and bright future. Congratulations to Mr. Wang.” Chi Zhong couldn't hold back and said: "Master Wang, what I'm thinking about now is not a problem, but...after taking Fugu, how to deal with the various changes that will follow, if this matter is not resolved, even if I am willing Even if you serve the imperial court, you can’t guarantee that all the generals under your command will serve you to death.” That Lord Wang is actually Wang Jien, the transfer envoy of Hexi and the observation envoy of Hebei Road. After hearing Chizhong's words, he smiled lightly and said: "Hehe, General Chi is too polite. General has been in Caochengchuan for many years, and he is like a prince. If you say you can't control Who will trust the generals under his command? General Chi doesn’t need to worry, the officials have made a thorough plan, the general came…” Pointing to the map, Wang Jien said in a deep voice: "As soon as you start here, we will act immediately. The Anli Army and the Longde Army control Cheng Shixiong's troops in Guangyuan, and they must not move rashly. I have a secret order from the official family, and I will personally lead the Ninghua Army when the time comes. , Jinning Army, Pingding Army, and Weisheng Army quickly entered the territory of Fuzhou to assist the general in controlling the various soldiers and horses under the jurisdiction of Fuzhou. Li Pishou, the assassin of Suizhou, would secretly lead his army northward to intercept Yang Jiye's reinforcements in Linzhou . At that time, Fuzhou will be firmly controlled, Linzhou Yang Jiye will not be able to make an inch of progress, and Yang Hao is currently busy in the Western Expedition, even if he is willing to give up halfway, when he comes back, the overall situation of Fuzhou will be settled, unless he dares to provoke the counter-flag directly. To the officials, otherwise what else?General Chi, look at such a deployment, can it still be regarded as a one-shot loss? " Chi Zhong looked at the map, assessed the strength of these Song armies, and gradually calmed down: "The government's deployment is naturally seamless, but... nothing will go wrong, right?" Wang Ji'en said: "General Chi, the officials have been plotting the Northwest for a long time. If it is said that the one who most wants to take the Northwest into their hands, it must be the officials. How can the officials allow any troubles in such an important matter? General Chi just do it. Take care of your own affairs, as long as you succeed here, the Fuzhou Army will have no leader, and great things will be accomplished!" Chi Zhong looked carefully for a while, gritted his teeth, nodded and said: "Okay, when Zhe Weichang arrives, I will start to do it right away." Wang Ji'en was overjoyed, and said: "Okay, Wang will definitely cooperate with all his strength to help the general complete this unworldly feat." Chi Zhong said: "It's getting late today, Mr. Wang, please temporarily stay in Chi's study. Tomorrow, I will send you away in person." Wang Jien nodded in agreement, Chi Zhong told him to leave, just arrived at the middle hall, he saw the deputy general Xiao Chen waiting there, as soon as he saw him coming, he rushed forward and said: "My lord, Zhe Weixin has already entered the city, he will be at the mansion soon." Chi Zhong was taken aback: "So fast?" Xiao Chen said with a smile: "Zhe Shuai learned that the three armies here are fighting for wages, how can we rest assured, the second son will naturally have to travel day and night to appease the army." At this time, someone in the vestibule sang loudly: "Mr. Weichang is here..." Chi Zhong and Xiao Chen looked at each other with a smile, and hurriedly brushed off their robes to welcome them out. Zhe Weixin rushed to Caochengchuan in a hurry. When he entered the city, it was already sunset.Now his elder brother Zhewei is gradually starting to manage the government for his father. Zhe Weixin, as the second younger brother, will play the same role as Zhe Yuqing in the future, and will be the elder brother's right-hand man. This time I heard that because of the shortage of food and wages, the Caocheng Sichuan Army changed their minds. Zhe Yuxun didn't dare to be careless, so he ordered him to bring a sum of money and food to appease him. Now the ration truck has parked outside the mansion, but I was worried about the situation of Caochengchuan, so I didn't wait for someone to report, so I entered the mansion, and accompanied by the housekeeper, I walked quickly to the atrium, thinking all the way how to appease the soldiers of Caochengchuan. The wording of working together to overcome difficulties. As soon as he stepped through the gate of the courtyard, he saw Chi Zhong leading the deputy general Xiao Chen to greet him quickly, when Zhe Weixin saw it, he quickly took two steps forward, smiled and said: "Wei Chang has met Uncle Zhong, Mr. Xiao is good. " Chizhong is the same generation as his father, and calling him uncle is not worthy of his position. This is Zhe Weixin's intentional intimacy, but Chizhong dare not call him "uncle" respectfully, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "Oh, major general, hurry up!" Hurry up, Chi can't afford the title of Major General. Jieshuai is in good health." Zhe Weichang said: "My father is in good health as before, but he has been concerned about the situation of Caochengchuan...how is Caotangchuan's army now?" Xiao Chen hurriedly interjected: "Major General, my Kelan Army is adjacent to the Ninghua Army of the imperial court. The soldiers and horses of the imperial court have no worries about food and horses, but our Caocheng River is short of money. The soldiers are increasingly dissatisfied. Lord Chi made a decisive decision and distributed the stored grain as payment, but someone from the imperial court secretly instigated it, and the resentment of the soldiers increased instead of diminishing. If this continues, the morale of the army will be worrying!" Zhe Weichang was shocked when he heard the words, looked at Chi Zhong and said, "Uncle, is the situation so serious now?" Chi Zhong was worried, and said with a solemn hand: "Young General, please sit in the hall, and I will tell you the details." As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen understood, and immediately cupped his hands and said: "Mo Will temporarily avoid!"
In the desert, a tent under the moon is like a grave. All around, the horses stood quietly, the camels lay down peacefully, and the soldiers gathered around piles of bonfires. The oppressive atmosphere made few people speak. In the tent, Yeluohe's eldest son, Prince Ali, and several tribal leaders sat cross-legged with serious expressions on their faces.

" The generals laughed, and Yang Hao pressed his knees and said: "If there are reinforcements again, release all the water and let them rush into the city to join Yeluohe. You should have already figured out what to do next, since they are willing to be killed by us. Let’s go by the nose, so let’s follow the steps and step by step. For the Yeluohe Khan in Ganzhou, we will not fight, but for the Longjia in Suzhou, we will fight but not besiege. Whether to intercept or not, the three cities will be carried out simultaneously." All the generals shouted loudly, Yang Hao said again: "Here, General Zhang Pu is left to take charge of the overall situation, and the three generals Ai Yihai, Mu En, and Li Huating..."

Yang Hao said with a sly smile: "Oh..., Yanyan seems to understand what child molestation is. Has anyone in the Tang family raised a child molestation?" "Yes... no, no, no..." Tang Yanyan nodded just now when she suddenly woke up and shook her head vigorously. Yang Hao laughed, grabbed her soft waist, kissed her jade-like pink cheeks and said, "Don't worry, your officials won't like child molestation." Tang Yanyan wrinkled her nose and snorted, "That's about the same." Yang Hao chuckled, and said maliciously: "Because..., Yanyan, my family, dressed up, is more child molester than the most handsome child molester, why should the officials ride horses to find horses?" Tang Yanyan was so kissed by him that she raised her neck, her starry eyes blurred, and she panted delicately: "She...she is a real woman..." Yang Hao slid down against her flat and soft belly, gently unfastened her belt with the other hand, pressed against her ear, and whispered: "Of course you are a woman, and you are a very cute woman. Women serve men You can do the things you want to do. You can do the same thing as child molestation and serving men, Yan Yan, tonight, just be a child molestation officer, okay..." "No... not good..." Tang Yanyan blushed with embarrassment, and wanted to escape as soon as she opened his big hand, but just as she crawled out two steps like a puppy, Yang Hao clamped her hips and dragged her forcefully return. With a soft cry of "ah", her robe was lifted up, her buttocks were like a full moon, shining like jade. The wind blows the skirt, the butt is cool, and the chrysanthemum is chanted softly... Outside the huge white felt tented ox cart, a figure flitted up like a fright, and flew onto the big wolf-headed banner with nine tails of the yak. Plugging his ears, he said with shame, "Uncle is a bad person..."
Caochengchuan, Kelan defense envoy. In the study room, the mysterious guest said with a soft smile: "General Chi is willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and the official family is very happy. Now you and I are planning a big move, and we only need to take the prefecture. This prefecture will be controlled by one side. Big official, it’s in your pocket. There is no limit to the glory, wealth, and bright future. Congratulations to Mr. Wang.” Chi Zhong couldn't hold back and said: "Master Wang, what I'm thinking about now is not a problem, but...after taking Fugu, how to deal with the various changes that will follow, if this matter is not resolved, even if I am willing Even if you serve the imperial court, you can’t guarantee that all the generals under your command will serve you to death.” That Lord Wang is actually Wang Jien, the transfer envoy of Hexi and the observation envoy of Hebei Road. After hearing Chizhong's words, he smiled lightly and said: "Hehe, General Chi is too polite. General has been in Caochengchuan for many years, and he is like a prince. If you say you can't control Who will trust the generals under his command? General Chi doesn’t need to worry, the officials have made a thorough plan, the general came…” Pointing to the map, Wang Jien said in a deep voice: "As soon as you start here, we will act immediately. The Anli Army and the Longde Army control Cheng Shixiong's troops in Guangyuan, and they must not move rashly. I have a secret order from the official family, and I will personally lead the Ninghua Army when the time comes. , Jinning Army, Pingding Army, and Weisheng Army quickly entered the territory of Fuzhou to assist the general in controlling the various soldiers and horses under the jurisdiction of Fuzhou. Li Pishou, the assassin of Suizhou, would secretly lead his army northward to intercept Yang Jiye's reinforcements in Linzhou . At that time, Fuzhou will be firmly controlled, Linzhou Yang Jiye will not be able to make an inch of progress, and Yang Hao is currently busy in the Western Expedition, even if he is willing to give up halfway, when he comes back, the overall situation of Fuzhou will be settled, unless he dares to provoke the counter-flag directly. To the officials, otherwise what else?General Chi, look at such a deployment, can it still be regarded as a one-shot loss? " Chi Zhong looked at the map, assessed the strength of these Song armies, and gradually calmed down: "The government's deployment is naturally seamless, but... nothing will go wrong, right?" Wang Ji'en said: "General Chi, the officials have been plotting the Northwest for a long time. If it is said that the one who most wants to take the Northwest into their hands, it must be the officials. How can the officials allow any troubles in such an important matter? General Chi just do it. Take care of your own affairs, as long as you succeed here, the Fuzhou Army will have no leader, and great things will be accomplished!" Chi Zhong looked carefully for a while, gritted his teeth, nodded and said: "Okay, when Zhe Weichang arrives, I will start to do it right away." Wang Ji'en was overjoyed, and said: "Okay, Wang will definitely cooperate with all his strength to help the general complete this unworldly feat." Chi Zhong said: "It's getting late today, Mr. Wang, please temporarily stay in Chi's study. Tomorrow, I will send you away in person." Wang Jien nodded in agreement, Chi Zhong told him to leave, just arrived at the middle hall, he saw the deputy general Xiao Chen waiting there, as soon as he saw him coming, he rushed forward and said: "My lord, Zhe Weixin has already entered the city, he will be at the mansion soon." Chi Zhong was taken aback: "So fast?" Xiao Chen said with a smile: "Zhe Shuai learned that the three armies here are fighting for wages, how can we rest assured, the second son will naturally have to travel day and night to appease the army." At this time, someone in the vestibule sang loudly: "Mr. Weichang is here..." Chi Zhong and Xiao Chen looked at each other with a smile, and hurriedly brushed off their robes to welcome them out. Zhe Weixin rushed to Caochengchuan in a hurry. When he entered the city, it was already sunset.Now his elder brother Zhewei is gradually starting to manage the government for his father. Zhe Weixin, as the second younger brother, will play the same role as Zhe Yuqing in the future, and will be the elder brother's right-hand man. This time I heard that because of the shortage of food and wages, the Caocheng Sichuan Army changed their minds. Zhe Yuxun didn't dare to be careless, so he ordered him to bring a sum of money and food to appease him. Now the ration truck has parked outside the mansion, but I was worried about the situation of Caochengchuan, so I didn't wait for someone to report, so I entered the mansion, and accompanied by the housekeeper, I walked quickly to the atrium, thinking all the way how to appease the soldiers of Caochengchuan. The wording of working together to overcome difficulties. As soon as he stepped through the gate of the courtyard, he saw Chi Zhong leading the deputy general Xiao Chen to greet him quickly, when Zhe Weixin saw it, he quickly took two steps forward, smiled and said: "Wei Chang has met Uncle Zhong, Mr. Xiao is good. " Chizhong is the same generation as his father, and calling him uncle is not worthy of his position. This is Zhe Weixin's intentional intimacy, but Chizhong dare not call him "uncle" respectfully, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "Oh, major general, hurry up!" Hurry up, Chi can't afford the title of Major General. Jieshuai is in good health." Zhe Weichang said: "My father is in good health as before, but he has been concerned about the situation of Caochengchuan...how is Caotangchuan's army now?" Xiao Chen hurriedly interjected: "Major General, my Kelan Army is adjacent to the Ninghua Army of the imperial court. The soldiers and horses of the imperial court have no worries about food and horses, but our Caocheng River is short of money. The soldiers are increasingly dissatisfied. Lord Chi made a decisive decision and distributed the stored grain as payment, but someone from the imperial court secretly instigated it, and the resentment of the soldiers increased instead of diminishing. If this continues, the morale of the army will be worrying!" Zhe Weichang was shocked when he heard the words, looked at Chi Zhong and said, "Uncle, is the situation so serious now?" Chi Zhong was worried, and said with a solemn hand: "Young General, please sit in the hall, and I will tell you the details." As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen understood, and immediately cupped his hands and said: "Mo Will temporarily avoid!"
