Anti Qing

Chapter 98 Ming Army
On this day, a fast horse ran out from Yunyang Fuzhi, went to various government offices and military camps in the city, and summoned everyone to raise their tents and discuss military affairs.

The people in Yunyang City also know that this place is now a proper place for the Fourth World War, and the surrounding area is surrounded by Shun Kou territory.

Although a little surprised, it is far from being shaken.

As long as Gao Doushu still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, the people and vendors on the roadside will feel relieved.

However, there was still some talk in the city.

Since Gao Doushu moved to Fuzhi, the number of promotions can be counted on the fingers. This time, the sudden and temporary promotion of the army is afraid that something big will happen.

Gao Doushu's order was quickly carried out, and Xu Qiyuan, the prefect of Yunyang, Wang Guangen, the general soldier of Yunyang, Liu Tiaoyuan, the guerrilla general, and others all attended the scene.

In the Fuzhi hall, people lined up in the sequence of Wen right Wu Zuo, the atmosphere was solemn, guarded by soldiers, everyone had a tense face.

"See Futai!"

Gao Doushu had sword eyebrows and a high nose, his face was like bronze, and his eyes were piercing. Although his beard and hair were somewhat white, he looked majestic and imposing.

Hearing this, Di Doushu looked in front of him.

That time, Gao Doushu's promotion was still to discuss the method of defense, but he wanted to launch an offensive against Xiangyang based on that information.

Li Zijing, who had commanded the Junzhou raid, stood up, saluted, and said in a deep voice.

Di Doushu sighed, and knew that it would be useful to say less, so he put the words down, his eyes twitched, and his eyes lit up.

The shopkeeper looked terrified, as if he was lying.

"it is true!"

The [-] Shun Army was also directly defeated, and some fled to the death.

Its defense of Yunyang is never to defend the isolated city, but to take the initiative to attack.

It will be at that time that Gao Doushu will raise his account next time.

"Then Meng Tinggong is not an idiot at all, let me guard Xiangyang, I'm afraid someone will be able to use Yongchang Li thief!"
"Come out!"

"Now in Xiangyang City, a new batch of Shun Kou troops has arrived. The leader is called Meng Tinggong, also known as Da Chuang Wang, who is the eighth younger brother of Li Bandit in Yongchang."

Gao Dou Shuan sat in the lower hall, listening to the conversation between the two, he was also full of worries, and he was not surprised by Meng Tinggong's new name.

"If it's my eighth younger brother Meng Tinggong who was sent by Bandit Li from Yongchang, you see, Xiangyang will be in your pocket sooner or later."

The results of the Battle of Tongguan were introduced to Yunyang through the mouths of refugees from various places in the second half of that month. At first, we all believed it.

But as the news became less and less, Li Zicheng went to Tongguan in person, and the news that the Xiaoshun army defeated the Qing army was also confirmed by people from all walks of life.

Then they shouted together.

After all, the Qing army was good at fighting, and Shun Kou lost all the way. They were not grasshoppers before Qiuqian, so how could they beat Shaoduo's small army.

"Don't be offended by the villain of the magistrate, the road should be marked, you know."

"When this town was famous among the rogues, the bandit Meng Tingli was just a famous gangster!"

Geng Zhongming led his army to Junzhou in the northwest of Xiangyang Prefecture to station and rest, preparing to go north from the Hanshui River and retreat to Yunyang.

"About Lu Yingbiao, you have heard many rumors in the later days."

"I've seen Futai, Junmen."

"I know my colleagues, I don't have any low opinion that I can return to Xiangyang."

Li Zijing paced back and forth in the hall, his face was cloudy and steady, and then he suddenly raised his head.

"Futai, who delivered the news, and is the source reliable?"

Liu Tiaoyuan is relatively short in stature, wearing a set of Shanwen iron armor, a basalt iron helmet on his head, and a sword hanging around his waist.

It was Liu Tiaoyuan, the general soldier of Yunyang. I said it on purpose. Seeing Meng Tinggong looking at me with a sullen face, I knew I had lost my composure.

"It must be this person who led the troops to the south, Futai, it must be on guard!"

Hearing those rumors, Liu Tiaoyuan only regarded them as rumors deliberately spread by Li Zicheng, and he believed them at all. He only heard me laugh out loud, quite satisfied.

Since then, the Xiaoshun army has withdrawn its forces in Yunyang, and has never retreated to attack Yunyang again, and Yunyang has become a nail in the west of Xiangyang.

"My lord is invited by the master's family, come to Yunyang to move the rescuers from Futai and Junmen!"

"Is what he said true?!"

"The prefect may have forgotten that after surrendering to the imperial court, this town was nicknamed Huaguansuo among the rogues, and it is quite unknown."

But Gao Doushu, who was delayed in getting the news, hadn't sent anyone to burn Junzhou's grain after Geng Zhongming arrived in Junzhou.

When Geng Zhongming was resting in Junzhou, Gao Doushu sent Yunyang governor Li Zijing and guerrilla general Xu Qiyuan to attack at night.

Li Zijing is also one of those people who waits for big bellies, he waved his hands to indicate that it's okay, he was surprised.

Last year, Li Zicheng sent General Zuo Guoyi Meng Tinggong to increase his troops by [-] to attack Yunyang slowly.

As soon as he stood up, his whole body was filled with clangs.

Li Zijing's face sank like water, and his eyes tightened.

"The big one is the shopkeeper of the Le's Tongrentang branch in Xiangyang. The humble name is worth mentioning, but the identity is more real than pearls."

"The title of Futai is really unworthy!"

"Didn't the official say that before receiving the imperial decree, I can't be called Futai. Now I'm just a third-rank inspector. Living here is already respected by my colleagues."

"The military gate knows this person?"

After Di Doushu finished speaking, he glanced at the crowd, his pair of deep and curved eyebrows revealed a heroic spirit from time to time.

When Liu Tiaoyuan was working as a bandit, he never met Lu Yingbiao, and for more than ten years, he never heard of me doing any earth-shattering little things.

"That Lu Yingying style is exactly the same as my little brother. As soon as he arrived in Xiangyang, he cowardly confiscated all of your Le's shop!"

Liu Tiaoyuan stood up and bowed his hands in salute.

"Refugees who did not come from Guanzhong said that the road should be marked in the battle at Tongguan. They saw through Shaoduo's ambush, broke through the small camp of the Qing army, and captured the puppet king Wang Guang'en. His skills are very good!"

After saying that, everyone's doubts were somewhat dispelled, and there was a lot of discussion, and the atmosphere suddenly darkened.

Geng Zhongming retreated from Henan to Xiangyang Mansion. The soldiers were exhausted all the way, and he could not be recuperated in Junzhou, so he had to retreat temporarily.

"Just now there is no news from Xiangyang. There are only 2 bandits in Xiangyang, and one of them is wounded. People in the city are fluttering. They are looking for medical treatment in seven places."

When the voice fell, a middle-aged woman in white cloth and a melon cap ran out in a panic.

There is a lot of talk, if we want to believe it, we have to believe it.

"If I can capture Wang Guang'en and defeat Shaoduo, then any of your colleagues here can defeat Shaoduo!"

As soon as those words came out, no one among the generals laughed.

The civil and military officials of the Ming court in Yunyang City seemed to have unified their voices before they came. As soon as Gao Doushu finished speaking, Xu Qiyuan and the others secretly met their eyes.

Suddenly, Geng Zhongming's former camp in Junzhou City was breached by the Yunyang Ming army. The guerrilla general Xu Qiyuan broke into the camp, and Geng Zhongming fought hard and was killed.

"Look, it's at least a false move by Yongchang Li's envoy, to make that Lu Yingbiao famous in Xiangyang, so you dare to attack."

Hearing this, he frowned slightly.

"Lu Yingbiao has been famous in the camp for more than ten years. He has never even made a director. When you led thousands of troops to fight, Meng Tinggong was still a big pawn."

"Follow Futai's order!"

Liu Tiaoyuan chuckled, showing disdain.

"It means Shaoduo, after Wang Guang'en was surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he was also a commander in Bianzhen. He has led troops for a long time. What is Lu Yingbiao? I'm afraid he has been on the battlefield a few times!"
