The fifty-fifth chapter of the line (8)(1/2)
"This is Kan Leng, and he is also the boss." Du Pozhen pointed his finger at the leader of a majestic man.
Zhang Xing raised his eyes and saw that this man was tall, almost as tall as Xiong Bonan. There was a long knife on his back, and one end of the long knife was connected with an iron chain, and it was actually connected to a short soldier in his waist.
As soon as they were together, they immediately knew that this was a typical warrior and a fierce general.
Then he started fighting and tried to shake hands: "What a man!"
Unexpectedly, Kan Leng didn't take over the job at all, but just went to see his adoptive father.
Du Pozhen was embarrassed for a moment, and quickly pointed out: "Zhang Longtou and his father are indeed brothers in life and death. You just have to treat it like your uncle."
Only then did Kan Leng nod his head, then take over, then unarm the weapon, then hold Zhang Xing's hand and bend over respectfully as a salute: "My nephew has met Uncle Zhang."
Well, the assistant uncle will naturally face Uncle Zhang.
Kan Leng started, and the remaining Taibao imitated his example, making the handshake into an cupped hand and calling him Uncle Zhang.
Not to mention, when it was the turn of a young man named Wang Xiongdan to come over, he secretly exerted force on his hands... not using his true energy, but simply exerting force... Zhang Xing didn't bother to coddle the other person, and directly released the cold ice energy.
, the aroused white air almost drowned the other party, causing everyone present to sneer, embarrassment, and fright. Wang Xiongdan could only run out under the scolding of his adoptive father, and went to the door.
Penalty standing.
The little farce is not worth mentioning.
The only thing that can be determined is that these so-called Taibao are indeed young people with good strength. From this perspective, Du Po Zhen has its own foundation in the Huaiyou League and has never been influenced by the local Jianghuai forces.
Empty.
However, understanding is clear, but it does not delay Zhang Xing to start from here as soon as he opens his mouth.
"The Xuzhou army is approaching, and Lao Du is coming here like this. Aren't you afraid of a fire in the backyard?" Zhang Xing asked seriously after sitting down again. "Isn't it time for Miao Hailang, who has a background in the Xuzhou camp, to get hard now? The tyranny of Huainan, what kind of whale?
Have the old members of the gang and the wealthy businessmen of the East China Sea been properly gathered together, will they just fall over?"
"If you fall over, fall over." Du Pozhen sighed. "The worst-case scenario is to return to the East and become a wandering bandit..."
"The Eastern Territory cannot tolerate bandits from the lower reaches now." Meng Shanggong blurted out and interrupted again. "The heroes of the Deposed Dragon Gang are in the west, the three big bosses of King Gao Shen are in the east, and the two counties of Qilu and Qilu are in the middle.
The commander-in-chief of the march is so domineering, how can there be any room left?"
Du Pozhen was speechless for a moment, but ignored this person. He just came to see Zhang Xing, and then continued to focus on his guests: "What is the situation in the east?"
"I'm afraid this three-point situation won't last for a few more days."
Zhang Xing seemed honest.
"Now that we're talking about this, let's start from me...
"My opinion is that the old soldier from Qi County is quite capable. He is strict in running the army and has won many battles. Basically, his morale and military morale have been raised. Now he has obtained the full military qualification of the Eastern Territory and the territory of Lu County.
The army has been expanded to 20,000. It is considered to be a strong force and a strong force. It is estimated that we will take action soon, and we may not even say that we have already taken action at this time...
"Whether it's our side or the east side, from my point of view, if you can't keep your composure, I'm afraid you won't be his opponent, and I'm afraid you will still suffer a loss, or even a big loss.
"Also, didn't you ask Lao Wei before? Lao Wei has now gone to Hebei. He is worried about the direction of the camp in Hejian and has gone to the Qinghe area to make observations. Leader Xu and Leader Niu are also cautious on the banks of the river.
Shou."
"That's all." Meng Shangong continued to laugh. "In addition, we are here, originally thinking about how to deal with the overwhelming attack from the Xuzhou camp. If it really comes, it will really be an attack from three sides.
, I don’t know if Dongdu’s troops are coming, it means they are attacking from all sides..."
"The situation is indeed not good." Wang Eunuch finally interjected.
"Of course the situation is not good, because in the same situation, we are fundamentally different from Wang Gonggong. Wang Gonggong also has the relationship with Beiya and the favor of Grandmaster Du Gong... When things came to pass, Kaicheng surrendered, and he only said that he was
If you dare not go south for fear of crime, you will still have your life." Meng Shanggong is still full of firepower. "But what about us? What do we have? Since you rebel, you will die. If the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover the earth. The winner will be a prince, and the loser will
Dung... What did Zhang Longtou say? Princes, generals, and prime ministers would rather have the seed?"
As soon as this statement came out, there was a lot of applause around him.
This is also the mentality of many people who have never fought with the official officers and soldiers of the imperial court... With such an attitude, they still feel dissatisfied.
how to say?
Faith is commendable and should not be discouraged.
Even when he accused Wang Gonggong, what he said was actually the truth. The Xuzhou camp was directly assigned by Jiangdu, the master Niu Dugong was still there, and the accompanying Beiya system was also there. People like Yu Gonggong who was in charge of the paperwork also had enough political influence.
, it is very possible to save one's life in the face of battle.
"Okay." When the cheers subsided, Zhang Xingfang continued to speak expressionlessly. "That's the way it is. The key is, before Brother Du came, we made an agreement... we share the same hatred and the same enemy, help each other, at least
If there is a military briefing...what else is there to say?"
Having said this, Zhang Xing finally looked at Du Po Zhen again.
After Du Pozhen listened, he was still unhurried and continued to ask: "May I ask you two, how many soldiers do you have in hand?"
"Three thousand, we can barely defend two county towns." Wang Gonggong said simply. "If necessary, we can't even defend Dangshan Mountain."
"Ten thousand and forty-five, including three thousand soldiers and hundreds of heroes." Meng Shanggong answered proudly. "If it is appropriate to guard the four counties, we can fight head-on or cut off the enemy's food routes.
It doesn’t matter if you support us on the left or right, we still have enough energy to spare.”
Du Pozhen nodded and finally went to see Zhang Xing again.
"At this moment, not to mention the other scattered enclaves, the Qianlong Gang currently has four counties: Jiyin, Dongjun, Dongping County, and Jibei County, with a total strength of 56,700 people." Zhang Xing did not say a word, but
It was the leader Zhang Jinshu who blurted out the answer at the former's signal.
"After Lu Jun was lost?" Du Pozhen was surprised for a moment.
"Yes." Zhang Xing also nodded. "But this is in general, including people from Dangshan and many military bandits from Juyeze."
Du Pozhen also nodded. Others don't know, how come the three families here don't know the details of the leader of Dangshan?
At this point, after nodding, Du Pozhen finally couldn't ask any more questions. He could only explain his situation to Zhang Xing under the gaze of the other three families:
"Miao Hailang is not causing trouble..."
"oh?"
"Although he has a background in the Xuzhou camp, his backer died during the Three Expeditions. Instead, he has to rely on us to maintain it... On the other hand, Wenren Xun'an in Huainan seems to have his own way."
"Where are the rest of them?"
"The rest of the people are still safe... Speaking of fundamentals, the Three Expeditions not only destroyed Hebei and the Eastern Region. Even if Jianghuai is a little better, how much better can it be? The heroes and people of Jianghuai are also fundamentally dissatisfied.
, it’s just that the emperor led his army to Jiangdu, and he was so close that he didn’t dare to say anything easily... I won’t hide it from you either. The biggest issue in the Huaiyou Alliance in the past few months was the conflict between Huaibei and Huainan, Huaidong and Huaixi.
Opposition, everyone in Huaibei and Huaixi wants to rebel, but those in Huainan and Huaidong are worried that if they rebel, it will implicate themselves, and they dare not say that rebellion is bad. I just barely maintain both sides."
"I can imagine what happened."
"As for the Xuzhou camp coming all over the place..." Talking about the most fatal information, Du Pozhen paused, but then came up with an unexpected interpretation. "It is bound to come, but it may not be what you think.
So tyrannical."
"How to say?"
"Of the three masters in Jiangdu, Lai Zhan'er is the most trusted and has been staying at the Jiangdu camp. The two who went to Guanzhong, surnamed Yu and surnamed Tuwan, went to Jiangdong to take charge... Therefore, there has never been a master here in Xuzhou.
There are a lot of real big shots, and how many generals are vying for one position, making it a mess. However, the Xuzhou camp had suffered an entire army annihilation in Dongyi before. The replacement sergeants were all brought by the emperor, but the auxiliary troops and local
The officials and warehousing are all local, which is also an embarrassment."
Many people in the audience looked at Zhou Xingfan, but the senior leader of the Deposed Dragon Gang just sat there coldly without saying a word.
"Thanks to this, we can grasp their logistics information..." Du Pozhen said seriously. "Jiangdu provides logistics support here in Xuzhou. I am afraid that it will not be able to leave the eastern border with one hundred and eighty thousand people.
Even 50,000 is difficult, I estimate there are 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers... The duty of Xuzhou Camp is also to control Jianghuai."
Many people breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhang Xing frowned slightly.
"If he can mobilize 100,000 soldiers to fight across the country in just half a year, we don't have to worry, because the logistics support may not be directly from Jiangdong." Xiao Zhou finally sneered. "We don't have to worry.
Just look at it... If you ask me, even if the two or thirty thousand elites go out to the Eastern Territory to provide logistical support and intrigue, it will be enough for them to drink a pot."
"Twenty to thirty thousand elites are already very scary." Zhang Xing waved his hand and continued to look at Du Po Formation. "Can you be sure where this army is coming from? Is it going directly north to join forces with Zhang Xuguo of Qi County, or is it heading towards
Am I coming here?"
"I came here for you." After a pause, Du Pozhen gave a clear answer. "After the queen was robbed, the logistics supplies were all headed to the west of Xuzhou. The route was probably Qiao County.
Liangjun, and this place... isn't it clearly directed at you?"
There were so many people here that I became nervous.
But Zhang Dalongtou breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm afraid of only one thing, and that is that the imperial government and the army should be coordinated and work together as one."
"Third brother, don't worry!" Xiao Zhou blurted out. "I said it before, if I want Hebei, Dongdu, and Jiangdu to be united, or those arrogant generals are willing to lower their faces and cooperate with Qijun Lao Ge, it's better to believe that dog
The emperor can change his temper!"
"Why don't I know these truths..." Zhang Xing also laughed. "But it's a matter of life and death, so you have to listen clearly."
"Isn't Zhang Xuguo from Qi County also from a serious Guanlong family?" Someone asked in surprise. "You can't even be trusted by the Xuzhou camp?"
"Guanlong also has a core and a fringe, an old town and a new one..." Zhang Xing explained with a smile. "Where there are people, there will be divisions...His background can only bring him the trust of the emperor and his uncle.
On the contrary, the people below looked down upon him because he was from a lower background and because of his sudden success, he was promoted to military commander."
To be continued...
