Chapter 1265 Reinforcement
It is said that after Li Shukong was "reused" by Zhang Shun, he registered on the roster, received food and salary, and then drove northward around Taiyuan City.

Then Li Shukong left Taiyuan and went one hundred and twenty miles northeast, and he came to a dangerous place called Shiling Pass.

Shiling Pass is located at the junction of Taiyuan and Xinzhou, with Guanmao on the left and Xiaowutai on the right, and the two mountains stand in front of each other, which is very dangerous and solid.

In the past, Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi attacked the Northern Han Dynasty and sent General Guo Jin to stop the Liao reinforcements and Xu Quan suggested that the rebels besiege the Ming reinforcements, that is, this place.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, an inspection department was set up here to check out traitors and counterfeiters, and to capture thieves and deserters.

There are more than a hundred archers in the Shilingguan inspection department, and it's okay to deal with a few or dozens of thieves. How can Li Shukong's two thousand knights be the opponent?

In just a moment, Li Shukong killed the archers, chopped up the inspectors, and occupied the place by force.

Then Li Shukong said in his heart: "If you are only investigating the enemy's situation, you must not show Lao Tzu's methods."

"Since King Shun has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, why don't I take the opportunity to cut off the traffic inside and outside Taiyuan, so as to prevent the Ming army from knowing my truth!"

Thinking of this, Li Shukong arranged soldiers to send scouts to the four prefectures of Xin, Dai, Kelan and Baode, and at the same time sent people to garrison the inspection department of Shiling Pass, pretending to be archers.

All messengers from the Ming army were intercepted and killed, and the letters were delivered to Zhang Shun.

It's not that Zhu Xieyuan, the left governor, doesn't know the importance of Shiling Pass, it's just that there are not many troops under his command, and if he wants to divide the troops, he fears that the rebels will attack them one by one.

He thought he could hold on for a while, even if Shiling Pass was occupied by bandits, he could send troops to attack here as soon as reinforcements from the officers and soldiers arrived, forcing the "Shun Bandits" to fight against the officers and soldiers under unfavorable circumstances.

Zhu Xieyuan had a good plan, but Li Shukong cut off contact with him because of his disobedience.

Then Zhu Xieyuan kept silent on the news of Governor Zhang Fengyi for several days, and also said that Shiling Pass had been occupied by the rebel army.

He hurriedly wrote a letter, asking the messenger to take a detour to Datong to invite Zhang Fengyi, the governor of Xuanda, to come to rescue.

It is said that Governor Xuanda was also uneasy since Zhang Feng had not received any letters from Taiyuan for several days in a row.

Before Taiyuan's letter arrived, he couldn't help but said to Ye Tinggui, the governor of Datong: "The news from Taiyuan has not arrived in a few days now, and this must be broken by thieves."

"Although Zhu Xieyuan, the left governor, is a famous general and veteran in the military, he has no worries for a while, but after a long time, he is afraid that people will change his mind."

"Taiyuan is the confidant of Shanxi. If Taiyuan is lost, Shanxi will not defend it; if Shanxi is not defended, Xuanda Second Town will be like a rootless duckweed, and the capital will defend the enemy on both sides."

"When the time comes, the imperial court will inevitably move to the south. If the imperial court moves, I fear that the countries north of the Yangtze River will be owned by the African countries!"

"Most half of the elite soldiers in the two towns of Xuanda have been mobilized now. I want to personally lead more than ten thousand troops to Taiyuan to break through the important roads of Shiling Pass."

"Ye Fujun will be in charge of the rest of the army. After the Fujun is finished counting and rectifying, he will lead his troops to meet me and destroy this thief together. I wonder if it is possible?"

Ye Tinggui, the governor of Datong, is also a man who knows the soldiers. He has successively served as the Shanxi branch patrolling the inner road and the Shanxi inspector.

Last year, he opened a market in Datong again and exchanged more than [-] horses for the Ming court at one go, which relieved the urgent need of the frontier army, so Zhang Fengyi, the governor of Xuanda, also trusted him.

Now Zhang Fengyi still doesn't know that Zhu Xieyuan didn't send soldiers to guard Shiling Pass. He thought that the rebel army wanted to imitate Song Taizong's wisdom of destroying the Northern Han Dynasty and attack Xuanda's reinforcements here, so he decided to set off early.

"It's... that's fine, it's just that we have to be careful with the military!" Ye Tinggui hesitated for a moment, but worried instead.

"'Shun Thief' is treacherous and vicious, and unfortunately many governors have been defeated miserably, all because of their arrogance and contempt."

"Nowadays, Daming only has this family property, and it must not be taken advantage of by thieves."

If it were someone else, they would have been furious if they were taught such a lesson by their subordinates.

It's just that Xuanda Governor Zhang Fengyi heard Ye Tinggui's words about Zhang Shun, but he was convinced: "Ye Fujun, don't worry, since I left Datong, I will be a scout widely, and be careful in everything."

"This time I'm going south, I'm only going to get through Shiling Pass, and other matters, but after Ye Fujun arrives, we'll make a fuss about it."

Ye Tinggui, governor of Datong, felt relieved when he saw Zhang Fengyi was so cautious.

The two have made a plan, the governor of Xuanda Zhang Fengyi personally commanded a battalion of [-] soldiers, and Tang Tong had a battalion of [-] soldiers, a total of [-] horses. They left Datong and rushed all the way to Taiyuan.

Ye Tinggui, the governor of Datong, blindly urged Li Guoliang, the general of the Xuanfu, but waited for him to arrive at the five thousand town mark, and went to Taiyuan together to "destroy the thieves".

Not to mention how the two sides planned, let's say that while Zhang Fengyi was rectifying his troops and preparing to support Taiyuan, the war in Anyi, far away in the east of the river, had finally come to an end.

With the loud sound of shaking the ground, the magistrate of Anyi standing on the tower of Anyi couldn't help but look ashamed.

When the gunpowder smoke and dust dissipated, I saw that a corner of Anyi County had already collapsed.

"The city is broken, the city is broken!" The soldiers guarding the city, the common people and the "shun thieves" outside the city all shouted in unison.

The difference is that the cries inside the city are more of panic, while the cries outside the city are overjoyed.

"It's over, it's over!" The magistrate of Anyi watched the "thieves" pouring in like a tide from outside the city, knowing that he was doomed.

He couldn't help taking off his official hat, bowed three times to the northeast, and then drew out the sword in his waist and rushed up.

This magistrate is also considered to be proficient in martial arts, and he has practiced good swordsmanship.

However, on the battlefield, there is no morality in the world.

He had just pushed away a long spear from a rebel soldier, and seven or eight long spears had stabbed at the same time.

Where can Nazhi County resist it?Immediately, he was stabbed with seven or eight bloody holes and died on the spot.

Not long after, the rebel army killed and dispersed the defenders, and a burly general was led here by the crowd.

"This is the magistrate of Anyi?" He couldn't help asking.

"General Yu, that's the man!" Left and right heard the words and responded quickly.

It turned out that this general was none other than Yu Chongxiao, the original Yulin General Soldier.

At the beginning of the rebel army's massive attack on Hedong, he, Cao Wenzhao and Zhang Fengyi each led more than ten thousand troops to attack one place.

As a result, Zhang Fengyi not only successfully completed the task, but now she has already turned to Jizhou, Xizhou and other places.

After the Cao Wenzhao Department conquered various places, it has been transferred to Jiangzhou for repairs.

But he was unlucky, and bumped into Jiezhou and Anyi, two places that were not surrendering.

In the end, ten "General Qingtian Cannons" had to be mobilized to blast down the city wall before it was taken.

Yu Chongxiao saw that the magistrate of Anyi was dead and the city of Anyi had fallen, he was relieved, and quickly ordered: "Hurry up and send envoys to Pingyang to inform King Shun that Xiezhou and Anyi have been conquered."
