Chapter 390: Protect the country and kill the thief

Ximen Qing led his troops back to the barracks and told Wu Yong and the leaders today's war.

After listening to Ximen Qing's story, Wu Yong nodded and said, "It seems that the Liao army is here to test this time. Now that the test is over, the Liao army must have some plans. The Liao army is not stupid. They know that our Liangshan army is brave and good at fighting, and will definitely not face the attack again..."

Ximen Qing asked: "Scholars, what conspiracy do you think the Liao army will have?"

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "If I face a strong enemy, I will definitely attack him!"

"Split up and attack him?" everyone asked.

Wu Yong said: "That's right, just attack them. They will divide their troops and disperse our army. Our army is not familiar with the terrain here. If the enemy leads it, they will probably be wiped out one by one!"

Ximen Qing said: "That's right. It can be said that this is the only way for the Liao army. Since that's the case, how should we deal with it? Scholars, come on!"

Wu Yong nodded and said, "If the enemy wants to disperse us, then we will take the initiative to disperse and ambush them, and let their plans bury them. Our army can divide its troops into three directions: heading straight to Youzhou to welcome the enemy; the two routes are like wings, and they will be protected from left and right. If an ambush army rises up, then ask these two routes to meet the enemy, and then kill them like a dog with a broken family. What do you think?"

Ximen Qing smiled and said, "It's amazing!"

After saying that, Ximen Qing knocked on the table and said, "Lin Chong, Zhu Tong, you two lead the Leopard Camp. The assault camp starts from the left, Wu Song and Lei Heng, you two lead the Wolf Camp and the Eagle Camp starts from the right. And I, Guan Sheng, Lin Chong, and the Leopard Camp, and the Qinglong Dao Camp attack head-on. The rest of the people and horses are in charge of the Dazhai to prevent the enemy from robbing the camp. Are you clear?"

"Yes, commander!" everyone shouted in unison.

The next day, Ximen Qing led the Leopard Camp and the Qinglong Dadao Camp troops were launched in Youzhou, and the left and right armies attacked from the flanks.

The army walked for more than ten miles and saw He Chongbao coming from the road with 10,000 troops. Seeing Ximen Qing, He Chongbao was extremely jealous and immediately rushed to fight.

After a short while the two armies confronted each other, the Liao army was defeated. Then He Chongbao led his troops to retreat and hurried to Youzhou.

Ximen Qing rushed to chase after him. Unexpectedly, he saw two Liao troops rushing out from both sides of the left and right. The Liao army on the left was commander Li Jinwu, and the Liao army on the right was commander Taizhen Xuqing. As soon as the two soldiers appeared, they began to attack the Liang army from both sides, and they fought and fled.

Seeing the actions of Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xu Qing, Ximen Qing smiled secretly: "I want to lead me to divide my troops to chase you? Humph, delusion! If you wait a little, you will have something good to watch!"

Ximen Qingdun ordered that the Liao troops on both sides should be directly pursued by the Liao troops in front.

Seeing that Ximen Qing was not deceived, He Chongbao panicked and hurriedly led his troops to retreat. Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xu Qing hurriedly returned, preparing to continue to pester Ximen Qing.

But at this moment, a large army rushed out from behind them!

It was the army led by Lin Chong and Wu Song!

The Liao army did not expect the enemy to attack from both sides, so they did not react for a while. Lin Chong and Wu Song led the Liangshan army to fight, killing Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xuqing's army to pieces.

When the escaped He Chongbao heard that Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xu Qing were blocked and killed, he was so shocked that he almost fell off his horse. Yesterday they discussed for a night before they made a plan to divide and attack. They thought that the plan was appropriate and could divide and eliminate the enemy, but they never thought that not only did they not eliminate the enemy, but their own army was defeated. Now their life and death are uncertain!

He Chongbao was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no courage to turn around and reacted. He could only lead his troops to withdraw quickly, hoping to withdraw from Youzhou, keep safety, and protect Youzhou for a period of time.

Seeing Youzhou right in front of him, He Chongbao was overjoyed and then accelerated his pace. Wuyan, who was in charge of Youzhou, saw He Chongbao coming in and an enemy was chasing him. Wuyan screamed that he was not good, and then went down the city wall to lead troops out of the city to rescue him.

Wuyan saved He Chongbao and returned to the city. Ximen Qing also brought troops to the city gate. Seeing the city gate gate, Ximen Qing sneered and did not attack the city. Instead, he now divided his troops into two groups, cooperated with Lin Chong and Wu Song to wipe out Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xuqing.

At noon, Ximen Qing led the army back to the barracks.

As expected, Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xu Qing were both beheaded on horseback, and the people they brought were killed. Although Liangshan's men died, the victory was overwhelming. Ximen Qing was overjoyed and directly rewarded the three armies. Then the army moved the camp, and the front army pressed towards Youzhou, and ordered people to build well railings and cloud ladders to prepare for the attack.

The actions of the Liangshan army caused panic among Wuyan and He Chongbao, but they had no choice. Li Jinwu and Taizhen Xu Qing were killed and there were not enough soldiers. How can we resist the Liangshan army's siege?

With Wuyan and He Chongbao worried, the Liangshan army began to attack the city three days later.

The artillery attacks were still the result of the attack, which made the Liao army dare not show its head. Then the army climbed the city. In less than an hour, Youzhou City was taken down. Wuyan, He Chongbao and He Chongyang fled in panic and fled to Yanjing.

Ximen Qing then ordered an edict to appease the people and then sit in the city.

At this point, Tanzhou, Jizhou, Bazhou and Youzhou were all under Liangshan, and most of the territory of the Liao Kingdom was occupied. Next, the Liangshan army could sweep north and swallow Xiongzhou until Yanjing, forcing the Langzhu to flee in panic, and it would be best to go out of seclusion to hide.

By then, the general trend of Liangshan would be completed.

In the following days, Ximen Qing was in charge of Youzhou and rectified his troops. But at this time, a big news came from the spies from Liangshan. This big news was about the situation in Tokyo.

After Zhao Yunzhen destroyed Fang La, he summoned heavy troops from all over the world and led a 400,000 army to head towards Tokyo, in his name, to enter Beijing to live.

Faced with Zhao Yunzhen's actions, Zhao Kai, who had just become emperor, was unwilling to do so, so he issued countless imperial edicts to let Zhao Yunzhen go north to wipe out the Tang army. But Zhao Yunzhen must have ignored it, ignored it, continued to head towards Tokyo, and finally besieged Tokyo City.

Zhao Yunzhen's actions caused a stir in the Song Dynasty. Everyone scolded Zhao Yunzhen for being ruthless and committing a serious crime of treason, but Zhao Yunzhen ignored it and started to attack Tokyo City.

Zhao Kai defended Tokyo City to the death and did not leave, and issued an order to all troops to encircle and suppress Zhao Yuntian, a rebel traitor.

Seeing Zhao Yunzhen and Zhao Kai fighting lively, the suppressed rebels jumped up again, then raised the banner of killing rebellion, started to cause trouble again, and began to expand their strength. But it was better that these forces were extremely small, far less than those of Fang La and Wang Qing before, and the meaning of Wu character "Wu" was huge.

Zhao Yunzhen made up his mind to take down Tokyo City, so he naturally would not give up. In this way, it took more than two months to attack before Zhao Yunzhen blasted out Tokyo City. Later, he successfully entered the imperial city and killed Zhao Kai. He had already become emperor ten days ago and officially ascended the throne and became emperor.

Zhao Yunzhen became the emperor and immediately ordered the commanders of the army from all over the country to come to Beijing to have sex. It is obvious that Zhao Yunzhen wanted to seize military power and control all military power in his own hands. After all, he is now planning to ascend the throne, so how could he guarantee that the commanders of those army would have a clue.

At the same time, Zhao Yunti also pardoned the world, hoping to win the hearts of the people. However, plotting against rebellion is plotting against rebellion, and Zhao Yunti had some difficulties in trying to restore his reputation.

Zhu Wu knew very well that Zhao Yunti would attack the Liangshan army after he received the throne, so he sent a letter to Ximen Qing early and asked Ximen Qing to decide.

After reading the letter, Ximen Qing made it easier for Wu Yong to discuss it.

Ximen Qing said: "Zhao Yunzhen's methods are so fast, and he ascended the throne so soon. Although he is now treason, he has become the emperor after all. Give him a while, and the people of the world will be calm. If you want to take advantage of this storm, it will be difficult to deal with it. So I plan to lead the army back to Song. As for the name, it is to "protect the country" and "kill the thief"! What do you think?"

Wu Yong smiled and said, "Although it was one or two months earlier than our original plan, it was still in control! The commander said that he must return to Beijing as soon as possible to take advantage of the storm to stir up the situation in the world, let everyone share the same hatred against the enemy, and jointly deal with Zhao Yunti! Let him fall into a land of enemies! As for the Liao Kingdom, you only need to leave an army to guard it, and then continue to go north to capture Xiongzhou and Yanjing! The Liao Kingdom is now in a desperate situation. If we don’t take charge in person, it will destroy the country!"

Ximen Qing nodded and said, "Okay, that's it!"

Immediately, Ximen Qing summoned all the leaders in the surrounding city, and then ordered Zhu Tong to lead many leaders and assault camps to guard Youzhou, Yang Xiong and Shi Xiu led the shield camps to guard Bazhou, and Yang Zhi, who was summoning Liangshan, led the Modao camps to guard Jizhou, and Jie Zhen and Jie Bao led the spy camps to guard Tanzhou.

He also ordered these leaders to expand their troops in the four prefectures and then continue to go north to capture the Liao Kingdom. In addition, Ximen Qing left Tao Qian to take charge of the Liao Kingdom and abbot of all matters.

The other leaders rectified the soldiers and returned to the Song Dynasty to fight against the rebel Zhao Yuntian!

Three days later, Ximen Qing led a large army to leave the territory of Liao, and then the army was magnificent. The army was solemn, holding high the flags of "protecting the country" and "killing the thieves", and heading south with a blazing momentum.

Where the army passed, the people celebrated, and gave food and drinks in a constant stream, and many people asked to join the Liangshan team. The Liangshan army went north to conquer Liao and conquer foreign enemies for the country. It was the most famous and the righteous army in the minds of the people. Now the Liangshan army protects the country, which occupies the righteousness, which naturally makes the people celebrate and encourage.

The actions of the Liangshan army aroused the response of the people in various regions of the Song Dynasty. They also wanted to take advantage of the storm to get some benefits, so they all held high to attack Zhao Yunzhen, revitalize the name of the Song Dynasty, and began to reliably rebel around and expand their strength in the name of the siege.

For a moment, the situation where Zhao Yunti had just stabilized was broken again.

When Zhao Yunzhen heard that the Liangshan army came south to encircle him, he was so angry that he lifted the dragon table. He is now the emperor, and he was actually surrounded and suppressed by the former thieves, and the confused people actually clapped their hands to support him. It was a big deal!

Immediately, Zhao Yunzhen ordered Gao Qiu to lead 200,000 troops to go north to wipe out the Liangshan army.
