Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 512 General Duan flies across Juancheng

Tong Guan understands that his reputation in the court is as important as the title of duke and king he wants to get.

The latter was a commendation given to him by Zhao Ji, while the former was earned by himself.

When he reached such a position, Tong Guan also knew that there must be a number one person like him in the history books, but the difference is that if he has some achievements that are truly praised by the world, then he is a righteous eunuch in Qing history. And if he only relied on Zhao Ji's love for him to become a prince... Now that people have already criticized him, will his reputation still be heard in a hundred years?

Eunuchs also need face, even more than ordinary people.

According to Zhao Ji, the best way for him to earn this money is to fight the Liao people, but Tong Guan is always a little apprehensive.

He brought the best elites of the Song Dynasty to beat the Xixia people like a grandma. If he really went to fight the Liao people, Tong Guan knew that the result would never be as good as Zhao Ji imagined.

If you really join forces with Jin Guo to rush forward, it will be ugly if Jin Guo wins and loses.

They pressed the secret magic weapon of the Xixia people to build castles, but the Liao people south of the Great Wall were all Han people who "disobeyed the king's transformation and were willing to be barbarians".The strength of other people's city repair field battle is not necessarily weaker than their own.It is useless to deal with them the way you deal with nomads.

So Tong Guan knew that the only way to deal with the Liao army was to take the soldiers up to pick peaches when they were beaten by the Jin people.

If you can trade, you can trade, if you can't do it, don't do it, and you must not show your strength. Now that you have decided on this style of play, it will definitely be very ugly when you fight.

Tong Guan knew that it was impossible for him to gain fame by fighting against the Liao Kingdom, and it would be good not to be scolded, but the guard in front of him was not a conspicuous piece of fat.

If you can't gain a good reputation by fighting foreign enemies, can you still beat internal thieves?
Tong Guan was a little smug when he thought of how he was full of praise after steaming and turning the wax. At this time, Tong Guan was also full of pride when the wine was hot.

"Listen!"

The generals handed over their orders. Tong Guan is such a smart man. He has served in the army for more than ten years. Even if he is not proficient in military command, he at least has his own branch. Already assigned, at this time just before the formation, everyone was in high spirits to issue an order.

"Duan Pengju, Superintendent of the Suizhou Army and Horses, is the leading vanguard, and Chen Zhu, the governor of Zhengzhou, is the deputy vanguard. They will lead three thousand horsemen and two thousand infantry. They will first take Juancheng and go down to Fan County to force Shouzhang."

"Chenzhou Metropolitan Supervisor Wu Bingyi, Xuzhou Metropolitan Supervisor Li Ming, Tangzhou Metropolitan Supervisor Han Tianlin, Dragon and Tiger General Feng Mei, and Bi Sheng accompanied the Chinese army."

"Dengzhou Metropolitan Wang Yi, Yezhou Metropolitan Ma Wanli, Songzhou Metropolitan Zhou Xin led an army of [-] governors, food and grass."

"All the generals will advance slowly, and within ten days, they will be collected in Dongping Mansion!"

After hearing Tong Guan's order, all the generals agreed with a bang, broke up the banquet, and went back to prepare separately.

In the afternoon, the troops began to divide. Duan Pengju and Chen Zhu led [-] troops as the vanguard. Among them, Chen Zhu led the infantry to escort the grain and grass, and Duan Pengju led [-] cavalry to fight desperately in front until they reached the state capital.

On Puzhou Road, seeing Juancheng was in front of him, Duan Pengju drove three thousand tiger sacrifices to kill them.

When we got to the bottom of the city, before we could call for the door, the city gate opened, and then we saw all the officials in the city tremblingly coming out.

Duan Pengju frowned, raised his horsewhip and asked who came. Those people hurriedly answered that they were originally county magistrates in the city, and the Protectorate Army had set up a supervisory committee here before, but it was not very strong because it was close to the border of the Song Dynasty.

"Aren't you here under the rule of some supervisory committee?"

The county magistrate just shook his head, "Our place has always been led by Da Song."

"Is there any detailed work from the Supervisory Committee?"

The county magistrate dare not speak, there must be, but did he reveal it to the outside world?
Juancheng was already the closest city under the Song Dynasty to the Supervisory Council. It had not fallen, and the Supervisory Council had not mobilized its forces here.

The main reason is that this place is some distance away from Shouzhang and Yuncheng, and it would be troublesome to send people over to make a protrusion, so I voluntarily gave up.

Over the course of more than a year, the people in Juancheng have long been accustomed to the existence of the supervisory committee. However, before the start of the war, the supervisory committees from Shouzhang and other places took the initiative to settle in the county, and the county magistrates in Juancheng were ready to surrender. Juancheng’s Supervisory Committee voluntarily withdrew, and only took the nearby villages that had formed a supervisory committee to clear the fields. At first, the officials in Juancheng were happy that they had taken back the Chen family, but they became more afraid when they got closer. They are more used to getting along with the supervisory committee, and now they are going to return to the rule of the Song Dynasty, and they are really uncomfortable for a while.

Duan Pengju didn't doubt him when he heard the words, he only said that the supervisory committee only knew how to mobilize the rioters, and couldn't take down the big cities. There is no power in Hebei.

He asked the city to prepare some food, and then rode a horse to look at the Nuoda county town.

After turning around, Duan Pengju found that the walls of this city were not too high, and many places were still built with rammed earth. After a few more heavy rains, they might be able to dig them out with hands. If they were placed in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang La and others would be surrounded The siege can be defeated in a few days, but the soldiers of the supervisory committee can't even take it in the county town at the gate?
In an instant Duan Pengju became more confident about his dispatch of troops this time, and looked down on the power of the Supervisory Council even more in his heart.

He originally planned to stay overnight in the city, but now seeing how weak the Supervisory Council was, he decided not to stay, and ordered the generals to take the dry rations prepared for them in the city after a meal, and the three thousand cavalry continued to march forward. .

But before leaving, Li Ping, the county magistrate of Juancheng, was arrested and asked him to follow them as a guide.

Li Ping groaned in his heart. He originally planned to hide in the Song Dynasty to survive this military disaster, but he didn't expect to be pushed directly to the front line.

He wanted to break his legs to say that it would be inconvenient to join the army, but he had already welcomed Duan Pengju into the city at this moment, and seeing that his legs were intact when he was greeted, he broke them during the meal, so I'm afraid it was unreasonable.

Li Ping couldn't find a way out after much deliberation, so he had no choice but to be dragged by Duan Pengju and ride forward together.

They wandered around on the horse all night. Duan Pengju's men were all the best cavalry selected from the eight army prefectures under the jurisdiction of the capital. It turned out that, anyway, Duan Pengju felt that their military horses were the best in the world at this time, and they moved quickly. Even if the guards found out and wanted to report to the back, they were not so fast.

After walking all night, I finally arrived at Fan County the next morning. (end of this chapter)
