Zhao Ran took his disciples to the riverside. Zhang Lue, who was directing the army to disembark and settle, handed over the military affairs to Niu Qianshi and came with Gu Tengjia from the Wenchang Guanyuan to pay homage to Jiang Tenghe.
Jiang Tenghe asked about the fleet coming upstream, and Zhang Lue introduced: "Luo Hong from Dasheng Pass has arrived."
Eight years ago, Zhao Ran was recruited to Lushan for investigation and had a drink with Luo Hong by the river. In recent years, Luo Hong has also been promoted from Qianhu to the commander of Wuchang Guard, and he has taken charge of the three Qianhu stations of the original guard stationed in Dasheng Pass. He and Zhang Lue were close friends who fought together on the battlefield. In recent years, he and Zhang Lue have become closer.
When the fleet at Dasheng Pass docked, Luo Hong jumped off the boat and rushed over to pay his respects. The two armies joined forces and their strength became even stronger.
Zhang Lue smiled and said, "In my haste, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to come."
Luo Hong said: "Our Commander Zhu wants to stop me from leaving the camp, saying that I can't act rashly without the court documents and the Ministry of War's transfer orders. Damn the documents and transfer orders, the capital is in such chaos, where can there be transfer orders? I told him that I was coming to Qingjun, and I would kill anyone who stopped me. I scared the dog half to death and hid back, haha! Today I saw Abbot Zhao, Gu Jianyuan, and Master Jiang, and I was even more worried. Don¡¯t worry, there¡¯s no need to raise the banner of Qingjun, we can directly raise the banner of Dao Sect, which will make us more confident!¡±
Everybody laughed. This is the difference between frontier generals and ordinary defenders in the Central Plains. At best, they are adaptable, but at worst, they are daring.
Luo Hong asked again: "My 3,600 men are all here. Brother Zhang, I have to count on you as a soldier. Is that enough?"
Zhang Lue patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, thanks to Abbot Zhao and Gu Jianyuan, there are enough soldiers and armor. I have moved the entire armor warehouse of the Longtan Guard Army to you. Get it as soon as you get off the boat and distribute it quickly." Go down, the time left for you is tight, we have to attack the city early tomorrow morning, is it too late?"
Luo Hong was overjoyed: "Don't worry, my subordinates have been practicing in the past few years, and they are not the trash in the business!" He turned around and scolded: "Fat Li, what are you waiting for? Let the brothers get off the boat quickly. It will take half an hour. Those who couldn¡¯t get to the shore overturned the boat and fed it to the fish!¡±
After the army came ashore, they divided the camp areas. Zhang Lue led the Longtan Guards to station at Yifeng Gate, and Luo Hong's Wuchang Guards stationed on the riverside to protect the water camp ships. The "Water Village" and the "Dry Village" were horns with each other.
Regarding the equipment of the monks, Zhao Ran asked Peng Yunyi to take more than ten monks from Yuanfu Palace into Wuchang Guard, and assigned Yan Xiaoliu to Luo Hong for the purpose of conveying military intelligence. Now that the flying talisman has failed, we can only rely on him and Taoist Nangui. The Wuchang Guards were only responding from the side. Their task was to feign an attack at Yushen Cemen to contain the defenders. It was enough to have Peng Yunyi and others there.
His own sect and all the other spirit demons are assigned to Zhang Lue's Longtan Guard, which is the main direction of attack.
Yifeng Gate is sandwiched between Lion Mountain and Xiangqiu Mountain. The terrain is dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition to the garrison at the city gate, there are also barracks on the two mountains. The front camp and rear camp of the Fifth Army Battalion Infantry are stationed respectively, which is equivalent to The two iron fists protruding from Yifeng Gate can flexibly attack enemies attacking the city. Therefore, if you want to attack Yifengmen, you must first capture one of the two mountains.
But if you want to attack the two mountains, you have to consider the problem of the moat, which is not easy. In addition, by the moat, it is actually no different from the city. The streets and houses are extremely dense and it takes time to clear them.
Longtan Guard set out from the riverside. A small team under Zhong Qianhu had just tentatively entered the streets cautiously. Immediately, a hundred households from the Fifth Army Camp came up to greet them: "Are you a brother of Longtan Guard? I am from the Zuoye Qian Camp of the Fifth Army Camp." Liu Wenlong, I know you Wang Qianhu very well, we drank together!"
When the incident report came up, Zhang Lue asked Wang Qianhu: "Are you familiar with this Liu Wenlong?"
Wang Qianhu thought hard for a long time and patted his head: "I remembered that last year I came to the Ministry of War on errands and had a drinking contest with some officers of the Fifth Army Camp. It seems that he also went there."
Wang Qianhu rushed to the front and came back soon: "Liu Qianhu said he wanted to join us."
Zhang Lue was startled: "Real or false?"
Wang Qianhu said: "Lu Zhiyu, the Taoist Supervisor of Shangyuan County, is the guarantor. Lu Supervisor said that he asked to see Abbot Zhao"
Lu Zhiyu laughed when he saw Zhao Ran: "Ji Ren has his own destiny. He has long known that the abbot will be fine. Lao Liu has always told me that he has admired the abbot for a long time, so he brought him here to pay homage today."
A military general next to him immediately shouted in obeisance: "I will finally pay homage to Abbot Zhao!"
After taking over Liu Wenlong¡¯s front camp, Lion Rock fell into the hands of Longtan Guards, and the problem of the moat was no longer a problem. Climbing up to the large Taoist temple at the southwest foot of Lion Mountain, Lu Zhiyu followed Zhao Ran and introduced to him, Gu Tengjia and Zhang Lue: "This is Jinghai Temple, a large temple outside the city belonging to Shangyuan County. , the place is large and there are many buildings, so it is not a problem to squeeze in a thousand people. The remaining sergeants can??Standing in various places around"
Gu Tengjia said: "This place is not bad. I came here last year. It is indeed suitable for commanding."
Zhao Ran said: "I'm ashamed that I, the abbot of Yingtian Mansion, have never been here. I passed by several times and didn't have time."
Zhang Lue took a general look, nodded in agreement, and stationed the Chinese army here. The rest of the military affairs can be done by themselves, and they don't need to take care of them. The teacher and his wife took the disciples and a group of spirit demons to the back to rest, while Zhao Ran and the others began to think about how to start the battle.
During the discussion, Liu Wenlong came in again and reported: "Abbott, Commander Zhang, Li Qianhu from our Zuoye rear camp has come to our camp. I heard that Abbot Zhao of Xuantan Palace has come. I am very excited. Li Qianhu wants to He handed over the Hydrangea Mountain and led his troops to serve the abbot. I wonder if the abbot would accept him? Li Qianhu said that if the abbot refused to accept him, he would kill himself at the foot of the mountain to show his true feelings"
Zhao Ran smiled and said to Zhang Lue, you guys discuss it first and I'll go take a look. "
Zhang Lue said: "Why should the abbot go out to greet him? Just let him come into the camp to pay his respects."
Zhao Ran said: "Now is the time to employ people, so I'd better go there."
Zhang Lue quickly asked Zhong and Wang to follow him and escort Zhao Ran. Zhao Ran waved his hand and said away: "No, I still need you to protect me?"
Following Liu Wenlong out of Jinghai Temple, he saw several military officers surrounding a strong man. The strong man was dressed in military uniform and looked very majestic. He looked at him with awe and looked like a tiger. When he saw Zhao Ran, he bowed his head and bowed: "Li Sanhu, the last general. Meet Abbot Zhao!"
Zhao Ran used both hands to support him, and with a touch of magic power, he lifted Li Sanhu up and said warmly: "It's just the right time for Li Qianhu to come and surrender."
Li Sanhu wiped away his tears and said: "I have heard about the abbot's reputation a long time ago. In the past, I could only watch from a distance. Today, I finally saw the true God. I will I will take it seriously and I can't help myself, ugh"
"Why are you still crying? Good man, why are you crying! Wipe them away!"
"Yes the general is really excited, please forgive me, abbot today I will lead my troops to surrender to the abbot. If the abbot says to fight, the general will lead his troops to fight wherever the abbot says. There will be no ambiguity, otherwise he will kill himself immediately!"
After comforting Li Sanhu, who was inexplicably excited when they met and was about to kill himself if he disagreed with him, Zhao Ran asked him to go back to Xiangqiu Mountain to lead the troops, but Li Sanhu said no, saying that when he came just now, the sergeants from the battalion had been placed in Liu Qianhu In the front camp, he himself wanted to guard Zhao Ran, protect Zhao Ran's safety, and ride for Zhao Ran.
So this guy looked at Liu Qianhu's position behind Zhao Ran, then strode to the other side behind Zhao Ran and stood there, like two personal guards.
Zhao Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he went back with the two commanders of thousands of households. Just halfway through, the flag of the Chinese army announced again: "Report to the abbot, Zeng Ruming, the commander of the Zuosi Division of the 3000 Battalion, led the 5th battalion under his command and commanded thousands of households to pay homage to the mountain and ask to see the abbot." .¡±
Zhao Ran turned around, and Liu and Li quickly moved to both sides and stood behind him again. Zhao Ran turned around again, and the two of them ducked behind him again and stood still behind him. They cooperated in a tacit understanding.
Zhao Ran didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry: ¡°Stop, I have something to ask!¡±
