The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

In the northwestern border, the Song army camp, the lights went out.

In the big tent, Tong Guan was sleepy and dimmed. He had just rested halfway when he was called up, saying that there was an imperial decree from Bianliang.

Tong Guan didn't dare to be negligent, so he got up quickly to accept the order, but he was asked to send [-] light cavalry to Liangzhe Road to put down the rebel Fang La.

After receiving the decree, Tong Guan smiled and asked the colleagues who came to pass the decree: "Which general is in command of the court this time?"

Why didn't the eunuch who passed the decree know how powerful this eunuch was, but he was fawning because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to keep up, so he quickly laughed and said, "If you go back to Tong Shuai, the officials have appointed the young master Yang Lin to quell the chaos."

"Hahaha, Yang Wenyuan?" Tong Guan squeezed his beard and said with a smile: "Since Wen Yuan is leading the army, I'd better choose some good ones to fight and help my brother win the victory."

Tong Guan listened to Yang Lin's words and concealed the emperor's edict. After winning the great victory, his prestige in the army was unparalleled for a while.

Moreover, he also adopted the orphans of the soldiers who died in the Western Army, and all of them were regarded as adopted sons for them to eat and wear.Ten years later, these children grew up and formed the Shengjie Army, whose fighting power is awe-inspiring.

The [-]-victorious Czech army held on to Taiyuan for ten months, but the tens of thousands of gold troops were unable to defeat them, and finally the food was exhausted and the city was destroyed.

The current Tong Guan is faintly a new force in the Northwest. Others, such as the Zhongjia Army and the Zhejia Army, are also happy to see his rise in the Northwest. Get food and pay.

Tong Guan took the roster, carefully selected, and finally chose Xin Xingzong to go.

On the top of the wall of the village, a few men were lazily gathered together wearing only heart armor. One of them, about 30 or [-] years old, rubbed his hands angrily and said, "Zhi Niang's summer dog, did you take out the dog's guts?" Grandpa's eggs are big, so he knows he will stay in the city and dare not come out. If he is willing to come out and fight with us, he will have three or five heads to exchange for big money."

He was talking loudly and frothyly, but his comrades around him were laughing at him in a low voice: "Po Hanwu, how much gambling debt do you owe? Can you pay back the three or five heads? Now it's a summer dog!" Is your head not as valuable as it used to be?"

The man called Po Han Wu, Xu was a little ashamed of losing money, and cursed: "We bastards, our lives are so cheap, we go to war every day with our waists and heads, and we desperately exchange for a few rewards." It’s not as good as the Gaoliang children in Bianliang who eat flowers and wine and reward the maids who serve tea. In the next life, I will also work in that rich family, and when I am born, I will be the son of the little general’s family.”

When the other brothers heard this, they couldn't help laughing again, and one of them said in a loud Qin accent, which is typical of men in Guanzhong, "Po Han Wu, I'm afraid that your head is too big to get into the belly of that delicate young lady. It’s better if I’m developed in the next life, and I recognize you as a adopted son, and you become my son, so you’re not just a yamen.”

It can be seen that the relationship between this group of people is very good, and they are not annoyed by such a joke, Po Han Wu grinned happily, and cursed: "Thieves, it sounds like you are farting!"

It was late at night, when a few soldiers on duty were talking nonsense, a general of the Song army under the wall of the village was wearing a helmet and a red cloak, but he raised his head and shouted: "Splash Han Wu, ring the bell!" Gather the drums, we are going to march."

Po Hanwu stood up straight, clapped his hands and laughed, "Isn't it just that someone gave me a pillow when I fell asleep, and I was just about to kill a few birds to pay off my gambling debts, so this business came. Xin Xuanshuai, what's the matter?" How about we fight with Xia Gou's army?"

"Whoever said that we are going to fight with Xia Gou, hurry up and beat the drum, Tong Shuai has ordered me to go to the south of the Yangtze River to put an end to the chaos."

----

When the three thousand Qingqi set off, the flames illuminated the entire outskirts of Hangzhou.

A ladder was erected on the city wall, and arrows rained down from the top of the city. Fang La's red scarf soldiers held their shields high, bent their bodies, and climbed up the ladder like a bunch of ants. Behind them, teams of bows and arrows He tried his best to shoot at the officers and soldiers on the city wall, trying his best to cover their siege.

The fork poles and rams in the city of Hangzhou showed their skills. From time to time, Song Jun used a fork to overturn a ladder, and Fang Jun clinging to it screamed and fell to the ground.

Or a few soldiers held the ram and charged together, knocking the ladder to collapse, and the Red Turban soldiers howled and fell into the deep ditch below, like a group of ants being bounced off.However, the outcropping officers and soldiers were inevitably shot by random arrows and fell to the ground one after another.

Zhizhou Zhao Ting personally supervised the battle from the city tower. He never imagined that it only took one month for the newly raised rebels to drive his Hangzhou city to a dead end.

The surrounding states and counties were all lost, and countless rebels were like ants coming out of their nests, and it seemed that they could never be killed all over the mountains and plains.

Today's attack was extraordinarily ferocious. Usually, the rebels would have retreated back to camp after fighting for so long, but this time they fought endlessly for so long.

An ominous premonition faintly rose in Zhao Ting's heart, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. The casualties at the top of the city had already reached a very serious level. If the fight continues like this, Hangzhou may not be able to survive tonight.

In the city of Hangzhou, a group of peasants kept carrying wood and rolling stones to the city tower. These people were tossing back and forth, Hangzhou was short of manpower, and no one specifically directed them.

When the battle on the city was in full swing, a group of peasants approached the city wall quietly, and the Song army who was injured and could not be treated was scattered all over the ground, and they didn't have any doubts when they looked at them.

Until dozens of them approached the city gate in the chaos, the defenders under the city gate were leaning against the wall and panting, and they had just retreated from the city.When I saw these people, I thought they were afraid of the arrows of the rebels, and they ran to avoid the arrows, and cursed: "Get out, hurry up and move, I will delay the military plane and kill you all."

In the night, these civilian men suddenly rose up, punching and kicking the soldiers under the city gate. They did not know where to find all kinds of weapons.

These civilian husbands were not the opponents of the Song soldiers, but relying on the sudden attack and the large number of people, and they were all brave and fearless, they rushed to the city gate desperately.

A song general stomped his feet and cursed in horror: "Zhiniang thief, these unscrupulous people want to sacrifice the city, kill me!"

Unarmed peasants, with only crude and primitive weapons, how could they defeat these armored Song soldiers.

Soon people fell down one by one, looking like they were coming to commit suicide. No one noticed in the chaos. Two Song soldiers retreated quietly and touched the city gate.

Among the Xiangbing soldiers in Hangzhou, there are also Ming Cultists, their plan tonight is to send dozens of people ahead to die, causing chaos in the city, so that the spies in the army will open the door in the chaos.

The two strong soldiers were carefully selected by the Ming Cultists. They waited patiently for these two men to change defense at the city gate, and they had been waiting for ten days.

Chapter 134 Zhu Yang's Nest?

In August of the first year of Daguan, when the weather turned cold, Yang Lin arrived in Suzhou.

Outside the city of Gusu, Zhu Xi personally greeted him ten miles away, and set up a colorful platform on the outskirts of the city to welcome the envoy of the Liangzhe Road appeasement system.

After Yang Lin got off the boat, he finally met the chief culprit who brought Jiangnan into a purgatory on earth.

Now Hangzhou is under siege, but no one in Suzhou can see a trace of nervousness. Everyone thinks that Fang La is just conquering some small state capitals, and it is impossible to win Hangzhou.

The rebellion that swept across the Liangzhe Road has not yet attracted the attention it should have. The short-sighted and fatuous officials all thought that the rebellion could be extinguished in an instant.

Yang Lin looked at Zhu Mo with a smile, and the latter trotted away, and cupped his fists when he came over, and said, "Your official, Zhu Mo, met Yang Shaozai."

Yang Lin held his arm quite affectionately and helped Zhu Xunxu up, saying: "Zhu Yingfeng, such a warm welcome really makes Yang feel uneasy."

"Shaozai has worked hard for the country and made great achievements. I have told Suzhou officials all day long that besides the prime minister, Yang Shaozai is the arm of the officials and the pillar of the Song Dynasty."

Yang Lin put his hands behind his back, and laughed: "Zhu Yingfeng was wrongly praised, eat the king's salary, share the king's worries, and this official is just doing his duty faithfully."

The two talked arm in arm, and entered Suzhou City hand in hand, followed by officials, generals, gentry, and guards behind them.

Zhu Xi led him to his own residence, and the whole of Suzhou was also the most upscale paradise, and it was not an exaggeration to welcome the young minister of the dynasty.

The first time he entered the gate, Yang Lin was completely stunned. How many mansions I have seen in Bianliang, compared with this one, are all adobe houses.

Compared with Zhaodefang, which he regarded as a mansion, it was completely mediocre. Yang Lin, who had a smile on his face, had already scolded Zhu Xi thoroughly in his heart.

This dog thief plundered by force, scraped the ground three feet away, and created such a big disaster. He worked hard to gain the reputation of the champion, and finally turned the matter of Hua Shigang into a win-win situation. In order to flatter and earn money, the dog thief ruined Lao Tzu's grand plan.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Xi has his own small power in Suzhou.

The Paradise built by Zhu Mian in Su in search of people's fat and people's ointment is the largest in the south of the Yangtze River with its large gardens and strange lake stones.The Zhu family is also a noble family and has thousands of guards.Most of the assassins and county guards in the southeast came from his sect, "they all ran around and obeyed orders", and people at that time called them "the small imperial court in the southeast".

Zhu Miao brought Yang Lin and others to the garden, and a glamorous girl with a delicate appearance and a slender figure was waiting at the corner of the promenade with two maidservants. Let's eat."

Yang Lin led Lu Qian and Lu Wang, like grandma Liu, entering the Grand View Garden, looking around.

The glamorous girl turned her head and said with a smile: "I also invite the honored guests to be proud."

Only then did Yang Lin realize that in front of him, two small pillars stood upright, and four bearers on each side squatted on the ground waiting.

Frowning, Yang Lin waved his hands and said, "I'd better go up, I don't like to take pride."
