Chinese General Summoning System

Chapter 85: The Rogue Army That Appeared Again

At noon on December 18, 425, Dajin, another soldier and horse suddenly appeared to the east of Cangyuan City, and this soldier and horse were still fighting the banner of the Qingtianlong Zhangding. Cangyuan City just now The relieved atmosphere suddenly became tense again.

In the Prefect’s Mansion of Cangyuan City, Geshan County Prefect Zhao Mincheng asked General Mu Zhen with an iron face: “Didn’t Zhang Ding withdraw with the robber army? How come back? It’s really Zhang Ding’s group. Rogue? Is it wrong?"

General Mu Zhen sighed and said: "Master Prefect, we have not had time to dismantle the camp of the gangsters left in the east outside Cangyuan City. Now it is occupied by the gangsters. We have roughly counted the soldiers and horses that the gangsters entered this camp. At least 15,000 people, and almost all of them are young men. It seems that Zhang Ding has brought back the main force under his command. From the banner of the robbers, it can be seen that Zhang Ding should be the king of the dragon. As for why the Great Dragon Zhang Ding came back, his subordinates don’t know."

   Zhao Mincheng asked Mu Zhen with a sullen face: "How many soldiers and horses are there in Cangyuan City?"

Mu Zhen smiled bitterly and said: "After the gang retreated two days ago, some of the young and strong men who were temporarily recruited have left the army and returned home. Now we have less than 2,000 soldiers and horses in our hands. Recruit the young and strong men who have left, but even if these young and strong men come back, our Cangyuan City’s defenders will not exceed 3,500. This also restricts the guards of the Taishou Mansion and all the people in Cangyuan City. All soldiers that the family can send are counted."

At this time, the remaining more than 1,000 reinforcements in Quyang County have been evacuated to Quyang County under the leadership of Li Guan, the leader of the school lieutenant. Wanzhou has been in chaos these days, who knows if there will be such a group of gangsters attacking Quyang County. So Li Guan saw that the siege of Cangyuan City had been resolved, so he led his troops back to Quyang County yesterday.

The 1,500 reinforcements sent by Lingcheng County also arrived outside Cangyuan City yesterday morning. Seeing that the siege of Cangyuan City had been resolved, Lingcheng County’s leading school lieutenant hurriedly took the Mausoleum again. The soldiers and horses of Chengxian County returned to Lingcheng County, and a wave of thousands of gangsters appeared near Lingcheng County. If the magistrate of Lingcheng County were from the Zhao family of Geshan, the soldiers and horses of Lingcheng County would never Come to aid Cangyuan City at this time.

   Zhao Mincheng understood what Mu Zhen meant. There were 15,000 robbers, and there were only less than three to five hundred defenders in Cangyuan City. Master Prefect, please think of a solution! Otherwise, Cangyuan City will be hard to protect!

   Zhao Mincheng turned his head and asked Bo Heqi anxiously: "Aren't Liu Ji's soldiers still outside the city?"

   He Qi nodded and said, "Master, the soldiers and horses of Lieutenant Liu are still in the large camp south of the city."

   Zhao Mincheng said immediately: "Hurry up and ask that Liu Ji to send troops. Otherwise, with our current strength of the defenders of Cangyuan City, it will be difficult to stop Zhang Ding's 15,000 gang of rogues!"

He Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Lord, we have been dragging our feet for the past two days and haven't paid the remaining property that the Seventh Master had promised to the Lieutenant Liu. If Lieutenant Liu is sent out now, he probably won't agree. "

   "Give it to him! Go tell that Liu Ji, he is the only one who repelled Zhang Ding and the gang of rogues again, and the official will give him all the 10 thousand taels of gold and other things!"

   Then Zhao Mincheng ordered Mu Zhen again: "You personally take someone to guard the East Gate, and you must not let the rascals attack the city!"

Mu Zhen nodded and said: "The prefect, don’t worry, as long as Mu Zhen still has a breath, he will never let the robbers enter Cangyuan City for half a step. However, the Lieutenant Liu had better send troops quickly, otherwise we will rely on the current situation of our defenders. It really won’t last long."

   Then Mu Zhen immediately gathered about 1,000 defenders in Cangyuan City to the east gate of Cangyuan City. The remaining three walls were also guarded by generals with two or three hundred guards. At the same time, they stepped up the recruitment of young and strong men in the city.

Fortunately, the robbers outside the city did not immediately attack the city, giving Cangyuan City a lot of time. Soon the number of defenders at the east gate of Cangyuan City exceeded 1,800, which made the defenders at the east gate. Mu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, even if the robbers attacked the city, he could hold on for a while.

   Zhao Mincheng's master, Bo Heqi, went out of the city to ask Liu Ji to send troops. He soon returned to Cangyuan City and hurried back to the Prefect.

"Lord, the Lieutenant Liu said that if you want him to send troops, you must clear the previous accounts. That is to say, 10 thousand taels of gold, 300 war horses, 400 iron armors, 700 leather armors, and 800 seven fights. Give him the bow and 70,000 arrows first, and then give him all the rewards for sending troops to repel the rogues, and then he will send troops to repel the rogue army outside the East Gate!"

   "What? He wants to be paid again, he is greedy!" Zhao Mincheng said angrily when he heard what he said.

   The lord Bo Heqi sighed and said: "Lord, at this time, let's focus on the overall situation! If the stray bandits are allowed to attack the city, that would be the worst, alas—"

   Zhao Mincheng let out a rough breath, and then said, "What conditions did Liu Ji propose?"

   Zhao Mincheng, as the prefect of a county and the current Patriarch of the Geshan Zhao family, still knows the priorities. Now that the gangs of gangs are coming to Cangyuan City, it is not the time to repel the gangs. The most important thing is to repel them.

He Qi said bitterly: "Master, that Xiaowei Liu asked us Cangyuan City to take out another 20,000 taels of gold, 500 horses, 500 iron armors, 1,000 leather armors, 1,000 seven bows and 100,000 arrows. And he has to give him the money he owed before. He will send someone to receive it outside the South Gate. Only when he receives the things, he will send troops to repel the gangsters outside the East Gate."

After a pause, He Qi continued: "They were packing their bags when they went to Liu Ji's camp outside the city. The Lieutenant Liu said that if the lord does not agree to his terms, then he will immediately lead his troops to leave Cangyuan City. Don’t give you a problem for the lord!"

   When Zhao Mincheng heard Liu Ji’s condition, he couldn’t help but feel pain. Liu Ji’s condition again, UU read www.uukanshu. Com is the same as the amount of property he had agreed with Zhao Hanzhi, the magistrate of Quyang County.

Zhao Mincheng hesitated. These properties, including the gold and other things owed to Liu Ji before, could be taken out by Zhao Mincheng through gritted teeth, but once he took out these properties, Zhao Mincheng’s large house in Geshan Zhao’s family would be broken. Counting the property that had to be given to the Zhao family's four houses, the golden house alone had to take out 40 thousand taels, which was not a small amount of money for the entire Geshan Zhao family.

At this time, soldiers came to report again. The gangsters in the gangster camp outside the East Gate moved frequently, and they were likely to launch an attack on Cangyuan City soon. General Mu Zhen asked the prefect to send more young men to the East Gate as much as possible. Male.

Zhao Mincheng took a bite immediately, and told Bo Heqi, "Send someone from the Zhao family's storeroom to send the gold and other things Liu Ji asked for outside the south gate to Liu Ji's person, and then Let Liu Ji dispatch troops as soon as possible."

The official house of Cangyuan City also had a warehouse, but at this time, some of the silver and materials stored in the official’s warehouse were almost consumed in the previous battles. The property Liu Ji asked for could only be obtained from the warehouse of the Zhao family. Raised inside.

   As the master of Cangyuan City, He Qi not only helped Zhao Mincheng take charge of the government's money and food, but also the warehouse of the Zhao family's big room. He Qi was in charge of the Zhao family's big room. He Qi served as the chief steward of the Zhao family's big room.

"Lord, gold, armor, and bows and arrows are all available in the Zhao family's warehouse, but what about the war horses? Our Zhao family's war horses in Cangyuan City, and the army's war horses, add up to more than 400 horses. There is not enough 800 horses."

   "Go and discuss with Liu Ji, can you be a little accommodating in the war horse? Anyway, let's get over the difficulties before we talk."
