Chapter 457 Hot Potatoes

In the lobby of the Yanshi County Government, Zhang Cheng ordered in a deep voice: "Since Luoyang has fallen, and the intruders have not moved forward, our army will guard Yanshi for the time being, and do not move lightly, waiting for the king's order.

Now make some adjustments to each battalion in order to deal with the intruders in time. The army is still divided into three battalions. Zhang Guodong leads the left and right of the battalion, and the left of the luggage cart is the front battalion, stationed at Dongwangzhuang on the south bank of the Luohe River;
Wei Zhice led the right part of the chariot, the middle part of the chariot, and the army and horses in the middle part of the infantry camp to form the rear camp, which was stationed near the Bailu Temple in the northwest of Yanshi City;
Zhang Guangda led the cavalry battalion, two Mongolian cavalry battalions, and the general's own soldiers to form the Chinese Army Battalion, stationed in various places in Yanshi City. The three troops of our army guarded the horns, and they could attack alone to stop the enemy in case of trouble. Support each other! "

Wang Yuanjing said: "Marshal, I thought of something, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Not only Zhang Cheng was stunned, even all the generals in the hall were also stunned, only to hear Zhang Cheng say: "Speak up. I don't do 'one-speaking' here.

In all military discussions, including other discussions, all participants have to express their opinions. Only in this way can they pool their wisdom.

Yuan Jing, what's on your mind, but it's okay to say it! "

Wang Yuanjing smiled and said: "Commander, I think the spies we sneaked into Luoyang, it's best not to withdraw. In the future, when the intruders abandon Luoyang and go, these spies hiding in the city will be able to help me. The Austrian aid of the army, to regain Luoyang, you can get it with just raising your hand!"

"Wonderful! Wang Xiucai thinks farther." Zhang Guangda praised loudly.

"Don't dare to dare. There are indeed many things that the students don't understand about this marching and fighting. I just want to learn a lot from the generals."

Zhang Cheng also smiled and said: "Yuan Jing, don't be modest anymore, you are really thoughtful about this matter, you are worthy of being the military counselor of this commander."

When he said this, he turned his head and gave Zhang Guangda a look, and said again: "Wang Yuanjing is with the army as a military counselor, and manages all kinds of documents and books in our army, as well as the clerks and book offices accompanying the army. You should not be called scholars anymore, so as not to be left behind." Counselor Wang's reputation makes it inconvenient for him to handle military affairs."

All the generals were concerned, and they all knew that Zhang Cheng was reminding everyone that military discussions should not be too much of a joke, and he was protecting Wang Yuanjing's prestige and reaffirming military rules and regulations.

Zhang Guangda also knew that he was about to slip up at the moment, he was always quick to speak, so he clasped his fists and said to Wang Yuanjing, "Zhang Guangda slipped his mouth for a while, please don't blame Counselor Wang."

Wang Yuanjing always respected Zhang Guangda and other generals, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, General Guangda speaks quickly, although Yuan Jing said he couldn't learn it, but he is really envious in his heart."

Everyone burst into laughter, at this time Chen Zhong thought of something again, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Commander, there is one more thing, that is, Li Jiyu of Dengfeng asked to lead the army to fight with the Commander, to make meritorious deeds and atone for his crimes. Commander, please show me."

Zhang Cheng pondered for a moment, and then said: "You pass the word to Li Jiyu, the commander can trust him, but his young and strong armor and armaments are not complete, and he has not been trained in battle, so it is difficult to cooperate with our army.

Now his task is to assist Liu Jinhai to transfer the people to Xuanzhen, this is a big matter, and it should not be ignored. When he arrives on the East Road, he will equip the young men under his command with armor and armaments, and practice for a while, there will be plenty of opportunities for meritorious deeds in the future . "

He didn't wait for Chen Zhong to answer, and continued: "Furthermore, tell Liu Jinhai that our several villages in Gyeonggi and Shanxi will also take the opportunity to add some Dingkou and Qingzhuang. They must be well managed and will be of great use in the future. .”

After Chen Zhong received the order, everyone discussed some other military matters.

Suddenly, there was a rush of horseshoes outside the hall, followed by the sound of "deng, deng, deng..." footsteps, and the main entrance of the county government hall was pushed open.

"Marshal, report to Marshal, the subordinates have found... the prince..."

Zuo Qinghe, the rear sentry chief of the riding department, rushed into the lobby to report quickly. His body was covered in dust, and his face was cut many times by the bitter cold wind.

Sitting on the left side, Zhang Guangda asked eagerly, "What prince? Please explain clearly."

Chen Zhong said with concern before Zhang Guangda: "Qinghe, drink your saliva first, and speak slowly."

A soldier stepped forward and gave Zuo Qinghe a bowl of warm tea, he drank a couple of sips, and then said: "Report to Commander Zhang, report to Zhang Guerrilla, we are near a small village called Yangzhuang at the foot of Mang Mountain in the northeast of Luoyang, When he found Yiqi running in a panic, he captured him.

But when that man saw that we were in official military attire, he yelled at us, and even claimed to be the son of Prince Fu, and asked his subordinates to escort him across the river to Huaiqing. decide. "

All eyes in the lobby were on Zhang Cheng, all watching how he would make a decision.

I only heard Zhang Cheng ask: "Where is the man?"

Zuo Qinghe replied: "This subordinate is aware of the importance of this matter, and has brought him back with him. Now he is guarding him outside the hall."

Zhang Cheng didn't like Fu Wang's family at all, and he hated this prince even more. If he met in private, he might be sent to another world to enjoy happiness.

But at this moment, everyone knows that although they are all close friends and confidants around him, it is difficult to do things because they talk too much, so he immediately said: "The son of King Fu has a noble status, but we have never known it, so it is difficult to distinguish the truth." It's fake, so it's not easy to deal with, but fortunately, Lord Li Xianfeng, the governor of Henan Province, is near Gong County, and he can be sent to Lord Li's camp, especially if he handles it properly."

Everyone has no objection to this. After all, the prince of Fufan is a hot potato. Although he is considered a rare commodity, he failed to save Luoyang City, but saving the prince of Fufan can be considered a great achievement.

But everyone is unwilling to keep this little ancestor by their side. Now it seems that it is most appropriate to send it to Li Xianfeng, governor of Henan Province, and let him serve his little master!

Rebellious soldiers and bandit soldiers are almost everywhere in the city, and even those local ruffians who were originally in the city also took advantage of the chaos of the war to do things like robbing houses.

But all the slightly wealthy houses were broken into, and if they refused to obey, they would face swords and soldiers, and rape and robbery were staged everywhere in this world-renowned ancient capital city.

In times of war and chaos, it is always the people at the bottom who suffer. No matter which side wins, they are the one who is robbed and humiliated.

There is a family surnamed Zhang on Chayuan Street. Because their ancestors were Jinshi and had a lot of savings in business in the later period, they were targeted by a group of hooligans in the city.

Just because the family advocated that Youguang was slightly disobedient, the whole family of [-] were slaughtered, and the women in the family were all disheveled, and the death conditions were extremely horrific, which was appalling.

The soldiers and civilians in Luoyang City suffered heavy casualties, their lives were devastated, and the city was afraid of being burned. This catastrophe did not change until the afternoon of the same day, when Chuang Wang Li Zicheng led the army into the city.
