subvert the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 163 The Cunning Sun Ru

Of course Zhu Wen knows the little things in Zhang Quanyi's heart, and of course Zhu Wen knows the importance of Luoyang even more, but now Zhu Wen is fighting with Qin Zongquan. Bigger than a horse, not to be taken lightly.

But Zhu Wen still decided to send troops to rescue Luoyang. He grandly received Zhang Quanyi's wife and children, and arranged them to live in his mansion to show his importance to Zhang Quanyi.

Zhang Quanyi's son is only ten years old, and there is a daughter who is only five or six years old. She was born in pink and jade, very cute. Zhu Wenwen, Zhang Xiaohui and others all like this little girl very much.The little girl's name was Zhang Ting. Zhu Wen simply proposed to Zhang Quanyi's wife that the two families get married, and made a baby marriage for Zhu Youyu and Zhang Ting.

Of course Mrs. Zhang agreed, she was so moved, she thought to herself: "It's Zhu Wen's loyalty. I haven't seen the master for many years. When the master came to ask for help, he not only agreed, but also made his daughter his daughter-in-law. .He belongs to the county king, and his army is strong, but he has no airs at all. He is many times stronger than Li Hanzhi, who is the master's close friend."

Since Mrs. Zhang agreed, the two families were naturally very happy. They held a big banquet that day, announced the marriage of the two families first, and gave Zhang Quanyi a formal dowry after the siege of Luoyang was relieved.

The two children Zhu Youyu and Zhang Ting got along very well. They had a great time playing together. From time to time, there were laughing noises coming from the two of them.Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaohui and Mrs. Zhang looked at each other and smiled.

However, Zhu Wen knew that it was not the time to be happy. He asked his wife to stay with Mrs. Zhang's family, but he gathered his troops and ordered Ge Congzhou, Zhang Cunjing, Ding Hui, and Niu Cunjie to lead 2 people to Luoyang. , Rescue the crisis in Luoyang.Ge Congzhou was commander in chief, Ding Hui was deputy general, Zhang Cunjing was the vanguard, and Niu Cunjie was the platoon envoy. The [-]-strong army marched to Luoyang.

Twenty thousand troops have been mobilized here, and it will be a bit difficult to deal with Qin Zongquan. Zhu Wen is worried about Zhu Zhen, who is on the front line, and personally goes to the front line of Caizhou to take command. A confrontational situation.

Caizhou was becoming more and more distressed, and food and grass were not enough. Qin Zongquan had no production these years, and the counties and counties under his jurisdiction were desolate. There was no source of food at all. All food and property were robbed from neighboring towns.But now it is impossible to go north at all. Zhao Dechen in Xiangyang has surrendered to Zhu Wen. Not to mention the supply of food and grass, he even sends troops to harass him from time to time, which makes Qin Zongquan very angry.

Qin Zongquan heard that the Huainan army was in chaos, so he ordered his younger brother Qin Zongheng to be the commander, Sun Ru as the deputy commander, and led 1 people to take the opportunity to attack Huainan.

When Qin Zongheng's team arrived in Huainan, Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo had already lost Guangling, withdrew from the boundary of Yangzhou, and were fleeing northward when they happened to meet Qin Zongheng and Sun Ru's army.At this time, the coalition forces of Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo were only 3000 people. They threw away their helmets and armor all the way and just escaped from the tiger's mouth. They encountered wolves again and were surrounded by Sun Ru's men.

Seeing that the situation was over, Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo could only raise the white flag to surrender.

Qin Zongheng was very happy. He subdued three thousand elites without a single battle, including more than a dozen generals.

Qin Zongheng heard that Yang Xingmi had just occupied Guangling, and he might not have had time to make an effective defense. He hurriedly discussed with Sun Ru and marched into Guangling quickly. The group marched day and night, and arrived outside Guangling at dusk the next day.As Qin Yan said, Yang Xingmi's troops were still transporting food and grass from the camp outside the city to the city, and they were rushed to death by Sun Ru's cavalry. How could these hundreds of soldiers and peasants resist, and they were all wiped out in a short while .

Yang Xingmi hastily closed the city gate, put down the thousand-jin gate, and the suspension bridge was hoisted high. Sun Ru and Qin Zongheng had no choice but to occupy Yang Xingmi's original eight camps. It happened to be used by them, and there was no need to build camps, which saved a lot of trouble.

How did Yang Xingmi know that Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo came back so quickly, and when the scouts reported that Qin Yan had taken refuge in Sun Ru, he was even more furious. He took refuge in Qin Zongquan, who was not as good as a beast.Anger to anger, the matter should be resolved or resolved. After all, the siege of the city is not a good phenomenon. Although I brought a lot of food and grass, countless soldiers and civilians in Guangling City have to eat and drink. How long can I last?Now that the city was besieged, it was even more difficult to transport food and grass into the city than climbing to the sky. I never expected that I would beat Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo away and successfully occupy Guangling, but I didn't expect to switch positions with the other party.

Although Qin Zongheng is the commander in chief, how can he know how to march and fight? Everything is still guided by Sun Ru. Sun Ru is not in a hurry to attack Guangling. After all, Guangling is a big city. It was also the accompanying capital in the Sui Dynasty. The width is very deep, and it is not so easy to hit it down if you really want to hit it.

Most of Sun Ru's 1 horses are cavalry, although they are not good horses, because there are more donkeys in Huaixi and fewer horses, but this is not a problem for the Huaixi army. Over the years, they have used this to let the horses Mate with donkeys and get a lot of mules out.Most of the cavalrymen like Sun Ru rode mules, which had a bad temper and were taller than the horses, so these Huaixi cavalrymen looked even more mighty when they rode on mules.

Sun Ru took advantage of the cavalry to plunder nearby states and counties, but only plundered some small villages and county towns, and did not attack the high-walled and large cities of the state capitals. Now all the state capitals in Huainan are practicing fortification and clearing the wilderness, and they dare not go out of the city to fight, just want to protect themselves.

But this situation did not last long, because Zhu Wen heard that Qin Zongquan sent Sun Ru to lead more than [-] troops into Huainan, so he ordered Zhu Zhen, Li Tangbin, Huo Cun and others to step up their offensive against Caizhou.

Qin Zongquan immediately felt the pressure, and hurriedly ordered Pegasus to notify Qin Zongheng and Sun Ru, asking them to return to the army as soon as possible to deal with Zhu Wen.

Sun Ru was also very angry. He clearly realized that at this time Qin Zongquan was already a grasshopper after autumn, and it was only a matter of time before he could be destroyed. A fire stick (rifle) that breathes fire and sprays lead bullets, why should I fight with others?Going there is just to die. Didn't you see what happened to Lu Tang and Zhang Xun?

Sun Ru thought about it immediately, and discussed with Qin Zongheng: "Commander, although Qin Yan, Bi Shiduo, and Zheng Hanzhang have joined us, they are not our direct descendants after all. Just in case, we might as well host a banquet for them. Wouldn't it be neat and tidy to ambush the knives and axes during the banquet, kill them in one fell swoop, and incorporate them into their team."

Qin Zongheng was an idiot to begin with, he didn't have any ideas, so he immediately said: "All is up to General Sun's arrangements."

The next day, a banquet was held for Qin Yan and others in Qin Zongheng's big tent. Sure enough, during the banquet, Sun Ru threw a cup as a sign, and with all his knives and axes, he beheaded Qin Yan, Bi Shiduo, Zheng Hanzhang and others on the spot, Qin Yan and others Martial arts are high-strength, but with all the weapons on his body free, how can he deal with the siege of hundreds of people with his bare hands?He was decapitated on the spot.

Qin Zongheng said with a smile: "It's still General Sun who is so powerful. He annexed their 3000 troops so easily. I don't know when we will leave for Caizhou?"

Unexpectedly, Sun Ru sneered and said: "I think this place is very good, why do you want to go back to Caizhou?"

Qin Zongheng's face changed, but before he could react, he saw a flash of the knife, and a big head rolled out of the way.There was still an expression of disbelief on his face.

Sun Ru ordered: "Send the heads of these people to Zhu Wen's camp in Caizhou, and say that I, Sun Ru, are willing to submit to the Xuanwu Army."
