The 259th Round: An agreement was reached and the troops were divided into two routes


Because the matter was urgent, Chen Zongshan returned home after the court, simply packed his things, then led Zhang Shuye and two personal followers, and headed straight for Jeju.

Because both parties had a strong willingness to cooperate, Chen Zongshan and others quickly reached a consensus with Lin Chong after they arrived in Jeju.

The two parties reached the following agreement: 1: From now on, the two families are on strike.

Liangshan is not allowed to attack other states and counties in the Song Dynasty, and the imperial court is not allowed to send troops to attack the cities occupied by Liangshan. 2: Liangshan sent 50,000 troops to assist the imperial court in attacking the Liao army.

Each side sent a commander, and they were not subordinate to each other.

The imperial court was responsible for attacking the Liao army in Henan and Shanxi, and Liangshan was responsible for attacking the Liao army in Hebei and Shandong.

Three: During Liangshan's attack on the Liao army, the imperial court was responsible for all supplies of grain, grass and weapons.

The amount of grain and grass delivered each time should not be less than one month's use for an army of 50,000.

The imperial court was not allowed to withhold or delay the distribution without permission, and it was not necessary to guarantee the army in front of Liangshan.

There must be a sufficient supply of grain, grass and weapons, otherwise Liangshan will be regarded as a breach of trust by the court and has the right to tear up the armistice agreement.

Four: If the battle situation ahead changes and Liangshan needs to send troops for reinforcements, the amount of food, grass and baggage will be increased accordingly, as will weapons, armor, bows and arrows.

Five: Wherever Liangshan's army marched through the Liao Dynasty, all prefectures and counties were not allowed to send troops to block the attack, and they were required to fully support the normal demands made by Liangshan and not to create difficulties at will.

Six: If the resistance against Liao Dynasty is successful, the armistice agreement and alliance will be automatically terminated.

As for whether to continue, it will be decided by the coaches of both sides through mutual negotiation.

After the two parties reached an agreement, Chen Zongshan immediately sent people to rush back to Tokyo to report.

After Huizong and the ministers read and agreed, the agreement was stamped and took effect immediately.

In fact, both Lin Chong and Chen Zongshan made concessions in this agreement.

Originally, Lin Chong wanted to send an army of 100,000 troops at once, but Chen Zongshan disagreed.

In the end, he only agreed to let Lin Chong send an army of 50,000 troops.

As for the fifth troop increase clause, Lin Chong spent a lot of effort to win it.

As for the supply of grain, grass and other materials by the imperial court, Chen Zongshan directly agreed without any hesitation.

It is reasonable for Liangshan to send troops and the court to provide food.

Moreover, controlling Liangshan's food and baggage also controls the lifeblood of the 50,000-strong army.

If Lin Chong becomes malicious, the court can directly cut off the food and plunge the 50,000-strong army into trouble.

Desperate situation.

However, Chen Zongshan thought very well, but he forgot that Liangshan was a bandit, and what he was least afraid of was lack of food.

If there was no food and grass, he would just rob others.

This is why Lin Chong proposed that every time the food and grass were supplied, it should not be less than The reason why an army of 50,000 men is enough for one month.

The court quickly sent back the news that all the above six items were agreed to, and the agreement took effect immediately.

It was stamped with a jade seal.

In order to express its sincerity, the court directly shipped a month's baggage of 50,000 troops, as well as a large number of armors, weapons, bows and arrows, etc.

After the supplies arrived, Liangshan's 50,000-strong army immediately set off to attack Liao.

On the night when Lin Chong received the imperial edict and supplies, he held a banquet in Jeju City to entertain Chen Zongshan and others to celebrate the success of the alliance.

Everyone was happy that night, and Chen Zongshan led Zhang Shuye and others away the next day.

His mission had been successfully completed.

Lin Chong also promised that the army would go north to attack the Liao army in three days, so it was time to go back and resume his duties.

After Captain Chen left, Lin Chong called all his brothers together to arrange candidates for the expedition and the brothers who stayed behind.

Lin Chong looked at the brothers below and said loudly, "This expedition to the Liao Kingdom is different from previous battles.

Although the strength of the Liao army is not as good as before, it is still considered to have strong soldiers and horses.

Moreover, the Liao people have many horses and are good at horse fighting.

Their strength should not be underestimated." " After Lin Chong finished speaking, he stood up and began to name names: "Shi Wengong, Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, Sun An, Li Tianrun, Li Tianyou, Hu Yanzhuo, Wu Song, Wu Yong, Luan Tingyu, Qiao Daoqing, Deng Yuanjue, Feng Mei, Qin Ming, Wang Huan, Dong flat.

Shan Shiqi, Zhang Qing, Suo Chao, Zhu Jing, Li Kui, Bao Xu, Fan Rui, Du Qian, Song Wan, Shi Qian, Duan Jingzhu, Dai Zong, An Daoquan, Yu Baosi, Mu Hong, Shi Jin, Bian Xiang , Jiao Ting, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng, the above brothers will follow me to lead the troops north to fight against the Liao Dynasty in three days."

The brothers whose names were called by Lin Chong perked up and all stood up to take orders.

After Lin Chong finished speaking, he continued, "The rest of the brothers stayed in Jeju.

During my absence, Jeju was under the command of two brothers, Wang Yin and Guan Sheng.

Gongsun Yiqing and Zhu Wu joined the military.

Jeju is our foundation and gateway.

All brothers must work together to protect it.

Although we have signed an armistice agreement with the court, this does not guarantee anything.

Therefore, we must always pay attention to the situation in Tokyo and surrounding prefectures and counties, and we must not make any mistakes.

Careless.

In addition, if danger occurs in other states, brothers should make appropriate arrangements for timely rescue.

This battle is called the United Anti-Liao Dynasty.

In fact, it is my foreshadowing of the next move.

It will have a huge impact on our army's future actions, so this battle is only No defeat allowed, I leave everything to my brothers."

After listening to Lin Chong's words, everyone stood up together and said loudly, "Little brother, take the order."

After the brothers finished speaking, Lin Chong said, "Brother Duan Jingzhu, you have lived in the north for a long time and are familiar with the roads.

I wonder if you have any opinions on the route of the advance."

"I wonder what my brother wants to achieve by attacking Liao this time?"

Duan Jingzhu asked very smartly.

He did not answer Lin Chong's question blindly.

Instead, he first asked Lin Chong what goal he wanted to achieve, and then based on Lin Chong's goal Choose a marching route.

Lin Chong smiled.

It seemed that it was time to tell everyone what he was thinking so that everyone could understand his true intentions.

Lin Chong thought about it and replied to Duan Jingzhu, "If we follow the agreement with the imperial court, we can just drive the Liao army back to the territory of the Liao Kingdom.

As long as the Liao army no longer counterattacks, the task will be completed."

But this is not my ultimate goal.

Since we captured Jeju, I have been thinking about the future direction of the attack.

At first, we all felt that we should capture Yanzhou and Dezhou, and then go on the defensive and wait and see the court's movements.

I thought so at first, but the invasion of the Liao Kingdom provided me with new ideas, so now I want to change my original strategy and give up attacking Yanzhou.

I will use this time to go north to fight against the Liao Dynasty, take advantage of the situation to capture the northern prefectures and counties, and occupy Large areas of the north.

At that time, we will use the current Jingdong Road and the vast area in the north as the basis to deal with the imperial court.

After all, Jingdong Road is too small and is only suitable for defense but not for offense. " Duan Jingzhu was stunned after hearing Lin Chong's words.

Not only him, but also the other brothers below could not react for a moment.

Didn't you say before that you were just helping the court to stop the Liao army?

Why did you now occupy the northern states and counties?

However, after the brothers were stunned for a moment, they all became excited.

Originally, everyone was somewhat reluctant to help the imperial court, but it was different now.

According to Lin Chong, the resistance to the Liao Dynasty was just a cover on the surface, and the real purpose was to quickly capture the important northern towns after the resistance to the Liao Dynasty and take Liangshan's territory.

The territory extends north, which is a big deal.

Wu Yong was stunned after hearing Lin Chong's words.

He did not expect that Lin Chong's true thoughts were like this.

He immediately asked, "Brother, if we do this, will it be too little if we only send 50,000 troops?"

Moreover, even if we occupy several northern states and counties, we will definitely be attacked from both sides by the imperial court and the Liao Kingdom.

Isn't this too dangerous?"

"It doesn't matter.

With the efficiency of the people in the imperial court, by the time they react and take action, we will already have a firm foothold.

As for the Liao Kingdom, humph, they are good at fighting in the field, but when it comes to attacking cities, they are not to be feared.

Moreover, I, Liangshan, are not the Song army.

The combat effectiveness of our Liangshan soldiers is trustworthy.

In short, although this battle is risky, the rewards are huge.

Compared with boring defense, I would rather choose a radical risk."

In fact, Lin Chong had long thought that he would be attacked from two sides, and that the battle line was too long and would be in danger of insufficient troops.

But opportunities were created.

If you don't try, how would you know that you can't succeed?

After hearing Lin Chong's firm tone, the brothers were all infected by his determination and immediately expressed their support.

After hearing this, Duan Jingzhu said, "Since my brother is so ambitious, things will be easy to handle.

Now there are four Liao armies deep into the border.

We don't need to worry about the two armies in Henan and Shanxi.

We only need to attack Gaotang and Cangzhou."

The Liao army can be repulsed in two places.

And if we defeat the Liao army in these two places, we can take advantage of the situation to capture these two cities.

Both of these places are large states with strong walls and abundant money and food.

As long as we can repel the Liao army and occupy these two places, we can occupy favorable terrain.

From these two places, you can attack Yingzhou, Mozhou, Youzhou, Jizhou and other places among Yanyun's sixteen states.

Going south, you can attack Mengzhou, and Dezhou and Jeju are connected as one.

Going west, you can attack Hejian Prefecture, Jizhou, and even Daming Prefecture.

It is the best way to connect the past and the next."

Duan Jingzhu has been active in the Northland all year round.

He can be said to be a living map.

He has an extremely good understanding of the geographical locations of various states and counties in the Northland.

He does not need to think at all and just opens his mouth.

This is what Lin Chong values ​​​​about him the most.

After hearing what Duan Jingzhu said, Lin Chong was overjoyed and immediately said, "Okay, in that case, we will divide our troops into two groups.

I will lead Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Hua Rong, Sun An, Li Tianrun, Li Tianyou, Qin Ming, Wang Huan, Dong Ping, Dai Zong, Qiao Daoqing, Li Kui, Mu Hong, Shi Jin, Bian Xiang, Jiao Ting, Lu Fang, Guo Sheng, and Yu Bao attacked Gaotang Prefecture.

Shi Jiaotou and Wu Xuexue led the remaining brothers to attack Cangzhou.

Three days later, the army set out.

After defeating the Liao army, they took advantage of the situation to occupy these two places, strengthen the city and appease the people, and then discuss the next step."

After hearing this, the brothers had no doubts about this, so they immediately accepted the order, and then went down to prepare.

They only waited for the army to set off three days later, march north to fight against the Liao Dynasty, and took advantage of the situation to capture Gaotang Prefecture and Cangzhou.

The reason why Lin Chong chose to lead the people to attack Gaotang Prefecture was because Lin Chong remembered that in the original work, the prefect of Gaotang Prefecture was Gao Qiu's brother Gao Lian.

According to the records in the book, this person had strange magic.

Although Lin Chong once asked Gongsun Sheng and Qiao Daoqing whether there really were strange magic in this world, they both said that the so-called strange magic was just an illusion and a lie.

It's okay, but fighting in battle is of little use.

Having said that, for the sake of safety, Lin Chong decided to go meet Gao Lian by himself and took Qiao Daoqing with him, just in case
