Chapter 415 Capture and Kill Zhao Gou!march south
When Zhao Gou heard this, his heart sank.
At this time, Li Xiuning had already ascended the throne and her name had been determined.To deal with him, a feudal lord with an unjust name, he has a natural advantage of righteousness.
So Zhao Gou quickly glanced at the ministers around him.
All the ministers' faces remained unchanged, and they seemed not to be moved by Li Xiuning's words.
Zhao Gou felt relieved a little.
Seeing Li Xiuning turn back to the camp, Zhao Gou laughed and said,
"This lowly servant girl is trying to drive a wedge between our monarch and his ministers. It is useless. Generals, this lowly maidservant has always been ruthless. Even if you open the city and surrender, you will not escape her murderous hand.
Now as long as we defend the city together, we can definitely drag this lowly servant girl to death here.
Once Jin Bing knew that she was here, he would soon lead his iron cavalry over.
It's time for her to die. "
"His Royal Highness Kang Wang is right!"
Zhao Gou's number one confidant, Wang Boyan, the magistrate of Xiangzhou, said loudly,
"As long as we guard Xiangzhou, the general trend of the world will soon lean towards us. At that time, His Royal Highness King Kang will ascend the throne as emperor, and we will all be servants of the dragon, so we will naturally be rich and prosperous."
The other three cronies, Huang Qianshan, Liu Guangshi, and Zhang Jun, also hurriedly expressed their loyalty.
Zhao Gou doesn't know if these four relatives are as loyal as they say, but now he can only choose to trust these four important ministers.
Because he was worried that some generals would open the city and surrender to the enemy, Zhao Gou specially asked Liu Guangshi and Zhang Jun to strictly control the generals under his command.
The two naturally agreed.
But the development of the matter far exceeded Zhao Gou and Li Xiuning's expectations, and also exceeded Qin Hui's expectations.
Before Qin Hui had time to sneak into Xiangzhou with Yue Fei, Xiangzhou City surrendered at night.And the general who surrendered was none other than Liu Guangshi, who controlled the most troops under Zhao Gou's command.
What's more terrible is that Liu Guangshi not only surrendered in Kaesong, but before he surrendered, he sent his fierce general Li Qiong to break into the Grand Marshal's mansion and tied up Zhao Gou's five flowers.
Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan, who were also in the Grand Marshal's Mansion, saw that the momentum was not right, so they quickly knelt down and begged for surrender.
Li Qiong sneered, "You two can't stay."
Slashed their heads with a knife.
When Zhang Jun learned of Liu Guangshi's mutiny, he immediately knew that the situation was over.
If he surrendered with his army at this time, he might still have a chance to make meritorious deeds.
However, he fought Zongze and Han Shizhong several times, worried that Zongze, whose holy family was Zhenglong, would not let him go, so he summoned thousands of elite Western troops in the middle of the night, escaped from the northern city of Xiangzhou, and tried to cross the Taihang Mountains and return to Shaanxi.
However, Liu Guangshi has always been secretive in his affairs. When he welcomed Li Xiuning into the city in Kaesong, he sent Wang De, the number one under his command, to lead two thousand cavalry to chase and kill Zhang Jun.
In the end, Wang De pursued for [-] miles, finally beheaded Zhang Jun, and forced all Zhang Jun's subordinates to surrender.
As soon as the sky was bright, the gate of Xiangzhou city was opened wide. Liu Guangshi and his generals knelt in the east city of Xiangzhou to welcome Li Xiuning into the city.
Li Xiuning walked down to Liu Guangshi under the guard of Yue Fei Han Shizhong, suddenly looked at Liu Guangshi and asked,
"I heard that you are the number one general under Zhao Gou's command. Why did you choose to surrender directly?"
Liu Guangshi had a flattering smile on his face.
"Officials, the reason I took refuge in Zhao Gou was not because of King Kang's status, but because he has the official title of Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses.
After the official ordered to deprive him of his official position, I had the heart to abandon the dark and turn to the bright.
It's just that there was no good opportunity at that time.
Last night, I finally found a chance to take down Zhao Gou and the other traitors in one fell swoop.
However, the last general also served King Kang, and his crimes are not small. I hope the officials will forgive the late general. "
Li Xiuning smiled slightly,
"General Liu, please stand up. I said yesterday that if someone captures Zhao Gou, all his crimes will be forgiven. I heard that General Liu was born in the general family, so he must have a deep understanding of fighting skills. From today on, you will be by my side as a staff officer."
"Thank you for the official's favor."
Li Xiuning took Liu Guangshi's military power with a few words.It's not that Li Xiuning broke her promise, she really didn't believe in Liu Guangshi's ability to use troops.After all, Liu Yanqing, Liu Guangshi and his son were also escaped generals who were constantly ridiculed by Dr. Tongtian.
She will soon lead an army of 10,000+ to attack Bianliang, but she dare not let this escaped general be the leading general.
Although Liu Guangshi was reluctant to bear military power, he did not dare to disobey Li Xiuning's order, so he could only kowtow to thank him.
When Li Xiuning entered Xiangzhou City, he immediately went to the so-called Grand Marshal's Mansion, and met Zhao Gou who was tied up by five flowers.
She didn't mock Zhao Gou either, but simply took out the long sword at her waist, and chopped the heroic Kang Wang in half with one blow.
On the tenth day of March in the second year of Jingkang, Li Xiuning arrived in Xiangzhou.Liu Guangshi captured Kang Wang and offered him under the que that night.
On March 15th of the second year of Kang Kang, Li Xiuning swore an oath in Xiangzhou and led an army of [-] across the south of the river, approaching the camp of the Jin army in Bianliang.
At this time, because the Jin army was unable to break through the Bianliang city defense for a long time, in order to grab more gold, silver and people, it had already separated several soldiers and horses to plunder other places.
Wanyan Loushi also led [-] of the most elite Jurchen cavalry to break Luoyang, go down to Shanzhou, and station troops in Tongguan, blocking the only route for the Western Army to rush to help.
General Qu Duan of the Western Army led [-] Western troops and tens of thousands of civilian troops to attack for more than a month, but still could not break through Tongguan.
The division of the Jin army also brought tragic military disasters to other places in the Song Dynasty, but it was a great benefit to Li Xiuning.
Because she has found out clearly that there are only 8 real Jin soldiers outside Bianliang City, and only about 15 Han'er Army left.
Regardless of their elite level or number of people, the golden soldiers are stronger than Li Xiuning's army.
However, Li Xiuning showed no signs of fear.
As a famous general who has a deep understanding of military strategy, Li Xiuning knows that the two armies are fighting for the front, and if they want to win, they sometimes rely not only on combat effectiveness, but also on high morale.
At this time, the Jin soldiers have been besieging Bianliang for more than four months since last December, and they still have not achieved any results. Broken."
More importantly, in the face of Li Xiuning's counterattack, Jin Jun would never sit back and watch her cross the river.
You must know that there are tens of thousands of strong rebels in Bianliang City at this moment, as well as 10,000+ young and strong who have defended the city for several months. under the city.
The only way for Jin Bing to respond is to divide his troops again.
Li Xiuning did predict all of Jin Jun's responses.
Knowing that Li Xiuning sneaked into Xiangzhou, killed Zhao Gou, collected 10,000+ troops, and was about to cross the south of the river, the two marshals of the Jin Army, Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan were also fearless and full of fighting spirit.
They summoned all the generals and said very arrogantly,
"This girl from the Song Dynasty is very courageous, but she is a little ignorant. If she keeps shrinking in Bianliang City, we will naturally be unable to do anything to her.
But she dared to pull 10,000+ mobs to fight against us Da Jin Erlang, that's really boring.
All the boys, soldiers enter the jujube!
Capture this little girl in one battle! "
Then the Jin army took the initiative to divide its troops.
Wanyan Zonghan commanded [-] elite Jin soldiers and [-] Han soldiers, and continued to besiege Bianliang.
Wanyan Zongwang led 11 Jin soldiers and [-] Han soldiers, a total of [-] people. With Wanyan Jiamu and Wanyan Saliyue as the vanguard, relying on the speed of the cavalry, they crossed the Yellow River at an extremely fast speed. Stopped Li Xiuning's army in Suanzao County.
