Laughing proud of the world of martial arts

Chapter 169
Chapter 24 Fame spreads far and wide

On the other side, Cang Fei and others headed west all the way, and as soon as they left Xiangyang, soldiers from the Tu Meng Army came to greet them.

Although Cang Fei and the others went to Lujiazhuang, their contact with the Tumeng army has never been broken. In Lujiazhuang, the Tumeng army also sent scouts to report the situation in the army. When Cangfei arrived in Xiangyang, they had been waiting early.

After seeing Hua Fangsheng and the generals, they all entered the tent of the Chinese army. Cang Fei inquired about the situation in the army in detail, and learned that the Tumeng army's team had grown again, with as many as 2000 people, but they were stationed on several hills. So as not to attract the attention of the Mongols.

"That's right! Our strength is still weak, so we can't concentrate too much, otherwise we will be wiped out by the Mongols. We will continue to do so in the future. We will mainly develop in the countryside and mountains, take the route of encircling the cities from the countryside and seizing power with arms." Cang Fei repeatedly nodded.

"Surround the city from the countryside? Seize power by force?" Hua Fangsheng wondered, and the others were also at a loss.

Cang Fei explained: "The Mongols' forces are mainly concentrated in the big cities. We can't fight them head-to-head. We can only occupy the countryside and forests, and fight guerrilla warfare with them. It is difficult for Mongolian cavalry to perform in these places. With the advantage of the cavalry, we can take the opportunity to strengthen ourselves, and wait until the near future when we are strong enough to attack the city and completely drive the Mongols out of the Central Plains."

"My lord is wise!" Hua Fangsheng said, the other soldiers of the Tumeng Army also highly respected Cang Fei.

Cang Fei didn't think much of it. This was all the war experience summed up by later generations. He just borrowed one or two. As for whether these people can use them flexibly, he couldn't care too much. To overthrow the rule of the Mongols, in the end, he still has to wait for him to achieve great success, and then cooperate with the troops to have a chance to succeed.

Then he pointed to Wu Santong and Lu Liding, and said: "This is Wu Santong. He used to be the chief of the Dali Imperial Forest Army. He has experience in training and fighting. In the future, thank you for asking him. And this is Lu Liding. He and I are best friends. You guys They are all vulgar people, and they are not good at calculating the cost of money and food, so this aspect will be left to him in the future."

"Yes!" Hua Fangsheng said, and the other generals also nodded.

Cang Fei didn't let Wu Santong take over the Tu Meng army. First, he was worried that Wu Santong would relapse. Second, he didn't want to make Hua Fangsheng and others dissatisfied because of it. After all, they were veterans and held military power. , I'm afraid it will make them centrifugal.

As for Lu Liding taking over the money and food, Cang Fei didn't have so many scruples. Most of Hua Fangsheng and others were mud-legged. These delicate things should be left to Lu Liding, and it was Cang Fei who took care of Hua Fangsheng in terms of military power. Losing face, Cang Fei doesn't want his troops to have internal strife before the official uprising begins. How can things be resolved if people are not in harmony? If there are such people, Cang Fei doesn't mind eradicating them with thunder.

"Master, according to what you mean, it seems that you are leaving again?" Hua Fangsheng said suddenly.

Cang Fei smiled and said, "You have been with me for so long, and you are the only one who knows my heart better."

Hua Fangsheng smiled wryly, "Master, why did you leave this time?"

Cang Fei said: "I plan to go to Zhongnan Mountain. The Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect are very prestigious in the north. I hope I can persuade them to form an alliance with our Tumeng army. Even if they don't support us in the open, at least they will help us secretly .”

"The Taoist priests of the Quanzhen Sect are indeed very respected by the people. If we get their support, it will be very beneficial to our uprising. I wish my lord success this time." Hua Fangsheng said, "However, the Central Plains is more chaotic than the Song Dynasty. This time we can’t just bring some guards, we should bring more soldiers.”

Cang Fei said: "Naturally, give me five hundred elites, and I can kill some Tartars along the way."

"It's better to let the subordinates follow the lord to the north." Hua Fangsheng excitedly said.

Cang Fei shook his head and said, "This is impossible! The Tu Meng army will continue to grow and cannot do without you for the time being. Let Zhang Yuan go with me."

Zhang Yuan was also one of the soldiers of the Eighteenth Rebel Army who joined Cangfei with Hua Fangsheng that day, and he was relatively stable, and now he is also a general of the Tumeng Army.

"I will definitely protect my lord well." Zhang Yuan was also in the tent at this time, and immediately stood up and saluted.

Cang Fei smiled and said: "I don't need your protection, just kill the enemy for me when the time comes."

"Hahaha!" The others all laughed when they heard the words. Before Cang Fei led the Tumeng army all the way south to kill the Mongol Tartars, Cang Fei was indeed the main force. It can even be said that without Cang Fei, they would have met the Centuries Even the Mongolian soldiers were difficult to deal with. Although their team had grown during this time, they still found it difficult to besiege with a large force when they encountered a small group of Mongolian soldiers.

The Mongolian soldiers are too brave and good at fighting. Now the Tu Meng army is fighting the Mongolian soldiers, and the chances of winning are still slim.

Afterwards, Cang Fei stayed in the army for a while longer, and then he and Zhang Yuan set off to the north, and with him were the four daughters Cui Hong, Cui Lu, Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo.

Along the way, when Cang Fei met a small group of Mongolian soldiers, he naturally killed them all. When he encountered a large group of Mongolian soldiers, he temporarily avoided the edge and slowly advanced towards Zhongnan Mountain.

This expedition is not only a way for the heavens, but also very beneficial to the actual combat of the Tumeng army. The troops lost on the way will also be absorbed from the Han Chinese along the way. There are too many Han Chinese who resent the Mongols. There is no shortage of such people, but Cang Fei He didn't dare to recruit too many people, lest the team be too large and reduce its flexibility, and it would be difficult to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the Mongolian soldiers. As for those who were not selected, he would suggest that they go to other Tumeng army stations to defect.

Traveling thousands of miles to the northwest, the prestige of the Tumeng army officially spread in the north, and the reputation of flying for the sky is naturally more prosperous. All Han people are eager for the Tumeng army to arrive and drive the local Mongolian Tartars away.

On this day, Cang Fei led the Tumeng army to Mount Zhongnan. His march was so large that it had already alarmed the Quanzhen sect. Came to visit.

These are two middle-aged Taoist priests, one is younger with fair skin, the other is old with long beard.

After being introduced by the sergeant, Cang Fei knew that the two were Yin Zhiping and Zhao Zhijing.

"Unexpectedly, Cang Shaoxia is really as young as people say. We didn't believe it before, but now we know that it is true. He really is a hero!" Zhao Zhijing greeted him as soon as he came up.

Cang Fei smiled and said, "I've heard of Daoist Zhao's name for a long time."

"Where is it!" Zhao Zhijing laughed, appearing to be very tactful.
