The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 598 Five Kings Alliance

Lin Shihong said in a suspicious look: "Fugong is right. Yang Yong is very powerful now. It is no exaggeration to say that he has more than one million soldiers and thousands of generals. Dongguo, even Li Tang is not an opponent. If we want to defeat him, we must spare no effort. Therefore, if we want Xiao Wang to be the leader of the alliance, we must be of one heart and one mind, and use all the strength of the alliance, including all human and material resources Both financial and financial resources must be used by the king, if you can agree, Xiao Wang is ashamed to take the chair of the leader, otherwise, it will be difficult to obey."

After Lin Shihong said this, everyone's expressions became complicated. If this is the case, wouldn't we all be unified by the King of Chu?I was making my own calculations in my heart.

Fu Gong Er stood up and was the first to make a statement: "The king of Chu is right. We must not engage in expedient measures, separate our hearts from morality, and each have our own plans. What kind of alliance should we make? Wouldn't it make the world laugh? I agree with both hands. The [-] troops and the two cities under my command are all under the leadership of the King of Chu!"

"Mr. Fu is right. Xiao Wang also agrees with King Chu's one heart and one mind, and devotes all his strength to deal with Yang Yong. All the territory and soldiers of this king are willing to obey the call of King Chu." The second one made a generous statement. It's Wenren Suian, his territory is only Wujun, and his soldiers are only [-]. The Fu Gong can go all out, and he thinks this business is very profitable.

Three of the five princes agreed, and Li Zitong and Shen Faxing had no choice but to grit their teeth and express their views. In this way, Lin Shihong officially took the position of leader.Then a grand alliance ceremony was held, and the alliance flag and order arrows were customized.

In this way, the Alliance of Five Kings was formally established, and the unification was completed on the surface. The territory covered the southeast coast. According to the territory of the 21st century, it included Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, and large areas in southern Jiangxi and southeastern Jiangsu, with a total force of more than 30. Among them, there are [-] naval forces, mainly composed of the auxiliary Gong Er's navy, Li Zitong's navy and Shen Faxing's navy, which can be said to be solid.

Then the commander of the navy was elected. He was Meng Haigong, the navy general under Wujun Wang Wenren Suian. He led more than a hundred remnants to Wu Jun to defect to Wenren Suian, who is now the commander of the navy under the king of Wu Jun.

In fact, Meng Haigong only had three thousand sailors.However, Li Zitong has [-] sailors, Fu Gong Er has [-] sailors, and Shen Faxing has nearly [-] sailors. In terms of naval strength, Wenren Suian is also the weakest, but Lin Shihong just let the weakest Wenren Sui'an Meng Haigong under An's command served as the commander of the Allied Navy.

Li Zitong, Fugong Er, and Shen Faxing were all unhappy, but there was nothing they could do about it, especially Li Zitong was not convinced. Before the uprising, he made a living from fishing and hunting, and his skills in the water surpassed those on the shore, but now he could only hold his breath in secret.

Two days later, the battle report came that Yang Yong's vanguard battalion had reached Runzhou.Lin Shihong led 18 allied troops, of which Meng Haigong commanded [-] naval forces, and marched on land and water to Runzhou.

Thirty-lipu in Piling is only a hundred miles away from Runzhou, so the allied forces of the five kings arrived in half a day.The soldiers of Lian Fu Gong Er who stayed behind in Runzhou and Jiangdu will be combined, and the allied forces will have more than 20 troops at hand, including [-] sailors.

On the second day after the Allied Forces of the Five Kings arrived in Runzhou, they came to report to the horses. Yang Yong's brigade also drove outside the city of Runzhou to join the vanguard battalions of Luo Song and Yu Chigong. The 40 troops included [-] Naval divisions and battalions are overwhelming, boundless.

When the five kings climbed to the top of the city of Runzhou, they took a deep breath when they saw the lineup of Yang Yong's volunteer army.

At this time, Yang Yong and his troops lined up outside the city to scold.

Fu Gong Er suggested: "Leader, the thief is powerful, we will not fight, kill him for a while, and fight again when his vigor fades."

Lin Shihong nodded in agreement, but at this moment, a general was angered, and he yelled, "Leader, although there are many thieves, the soldiers are good but not many. They are just a bunch of mobs. Why should we be afraid? We have formed an alliance with five kings. Afraid that Yang Yong won't succeed? Besides, they came from a long distance, and they belonged to the exhausted army. We just went out of the city to fight and kill their vigor."

Lin Shihong recognized this person at first glance, it was Hu Zongmin, a general under Shen Faxing.He said indifferently: "General Hu, a proud soldier is bound to be defeated. Don't underestimate the enemy. We have dangers to defend now. The enemy is strong and we are weak, so it is not suitable to fight."

Hu Zongmin pursed his lips with disdain on his face: "Leader, if we just shrink back and don't fight, wouldn't the thieves laugh at us for being cowardly? We formed an alliance with Yang Yong for the purpose of fighting to the death with Yang Yong. Otherwise, what's the purpose of forming an alliance? If the general is not talented, I would like to lead a team out of the city to fight, and if I cannot win, I am willing to serve as a military order!"

Lin Shihong was very unhappy, he is the leader of the alliance, what are you Hu Zongmin, you are not even a prince, you are just a general, how dare you bargain with me?So he said nothing, and looked at Shen Faxing, because Hu Zongmin was his subordinate.

Shen Faxing smiled and said: "Don't blame the leader, General Hu is aggressive and has no other intentions."

Shen Faxing was talking, but he was thinking in his heart, you became the leader of the alliance with only 2 horses, and ordered us, why?Fu Gong is a general of a defeated army, so he is naturally not qualified to be the leader of the alliance. Now in terms of strength, we have to count Shen. When we have military merits, I am not afraid that you will not give up the position of leader.

Fu Gong Er was very happy and went forward to salute: "Leader, since General Hu took the initiative to invite Ying, you might as well go out of the city to fight a battle."

Lin Shihong glanced at Fu Gong Er, it was you who disagreed with the beating just now, but now it is you who is being beaten, why do you behave differently all of a sudden?Li Zitong also spoke: "Leader, since someone is not convinced by Yang Yong, why not go out of the city to fight?"

"Well, since you are all willing to fight, this alliance will fulfill you. General Hu obeys the order!" As he spoke, he pulled out a golden leather alliance order and shouted at Hu Zongmin.

"The last general is here." Hu Zongmin agreed, lowered his head slightly, and cupped his hands.

"The alliance will give you [-] elite soldiers to fight against Yang Yong, and you are only allowed to win but not to lose."

"No." Hu Zongmin was elated, you were all scared out of your wits by Yang Yong, I went out to slaughter a few and came back to give our lord a face, when we have military merits, the position of leader will belong to our lord, you Lin Shihong is now a Display, puppet, don't take yourself too seriously.

At this time, a young general came out from behind Shen Faxing and saluted him: "The last general is not talented, I would like to go out of the city to help General Hu and watch the enemy for him."

Lin Shihong saw that this young general was only 20 years old, with a silver helmet and silver armor, a medium build, fair skin, and good features. He knew that this was Shen Lun, the son of Shen Faxing. Do you want people to show off, wanting to win and grab credit, or do you refuse to accept this king as the leader of the alliance, and want to fight against this alliance?
