Chapter 2802 Confrontation at Yanggu Pass
Wang Fu and Li Bangyan frowned when they heard this, but they didn't expect Cai Jing to have such a plan.
They are civil servants, and they don't want to go to the front to fight.
But right now, there is only one way to offset their crimes.
They had no choice but to fold their arms and accept orders.
After the news reached the court, Hui Zong vomited blood angrily, but Lin Chong turned against him.
Moreover, he also took away one hundred thousand elite imperial troops.
According to the military system of the Song Dynasty, the soldiers did not know the generals, and the generals did not know the soldiers. In fact, the emergence of private troops was strictly prevented.
But Lin Chong's prestige in the Forbidden Army is too great, and he has just quelled the Huaixi rebellion.
The [-] forbidden troops all listened to Lin Chong, which led to the current situation.
Huizong decreed that the Xiang army of various states along the way should immediately chase and intercept the [-] rebels, and that the rebels must not be allowed to go north to merge with Song Gongming of Luzhou.
Needless to say, the Privy Council has already mobilized troops.
Finally, they gathered at Yanggu Pass, hoping to rely on the natural danger of this pass to let Lin Chong's [-] soldiers and horses be buried here.
The people above knew that there was a suspicion between Wu Zhi and Cai Jing, the commander-in-chief of Yangguguan, so they specially sent the front-line supervisors to supervise.
The supervisor is a party of Tong Guan and Cai Jing, who was born as a civil servant, and his name is Zhang Mengfang.
As soon as he received the order, he rushed to Yanggu Pass.
He also took his cronies as sworn brothers, Zhang Biao and Jiang Zhong.
The two cronies are in Mengzhou City near Yangguguan, and there are [-] regiments training the militia.
Zhang Mengfang wanted to use this to suppress Wu Zhi so that he would not mess around.
Yangguguan is the only way between Luzhou and the capital. The valley is hundreds of miles long, with high mountains and dense forests on both sides.
Once the lock is in hand, Wan Fu cannot open it.
After Wu Song followed Song Gongming's uprising, he kept persuading his elder brother to join Song Gongming.
But Wu Zhi is a loyal and brave person. Although he has friendship with Song Gongming, he also sympathizes with Song Gongming.
But friendship is friendship, faith is faith.
His Wu family was favored by the emperor, and his wife's family was Zhao Yin of the capital.
If he rebelled, not only the Wu family would be kicked out of fame, but the Pan family would also be doomed.
After he received the news that Lin Chong was going north, he had actually ordered people to immediately set up defenses and set up numerous checkpoints at Yanggu Pass, intending to block the [-] soldiers in sections.
But Zhang Mengfang didn't trust him, and intervened in the military affairs of Yangguguan as soon as he came.It is said that what is the enemy is currently, we should not take too many risks and divide our forces to block it.
Instead, they want to merge and stick to one place, like an ostrich nesting on the main pass of Longshou Peak.
Wu Zhi told him that when Lin Chong's army came, not only would they encounter the enemy head-on, but Song Gongming would definitely lead troops to attack from behind.
If you stick to one place, you will definitely fall into the pincer attack of the two armies.
At that time, the enemy will be attacked from the front and back, and Longshou Peak will be broken.
Zhang Mengfang didn't listen, and guessed in his heart that Wu Zhi had sinister intentions and deliberately divided the troops, in fact, he wanted to give way to Lin Chong.
His thought made Wu Zhi very angry.
But he is the pre-war prisoner, no matter how dissatisfied Wu Zhi is, he has to listen to him.
The two of them reported to the Privy Council and let the Privy Council make up their minds.
In the end, the Privy Council listened to Zhang Mengfang and asked Wu Zhi to follow Zhang Mengfang's plan.
The [-] defenders of Yanggu Pass, together with the [-] regiments led by Zhang Mengfang, were all stationed at Longshou Peak in the end.
Not to mention the steep roads in this place, the key is that there is no water source.
To drink water, people have to be transported down the mountain.
To defend this place, we must defend the front line.
But Zhang Mengfang insisted on withdrawing and surrendering the front line.
Wu Zhi sighed as he watched from the mountain, the good Yanggu Pass forced Zhang Mengfang to die.
At night, when Wu Zhi was looking for camp, a young man suddenly walked into the army tent.
Wu Zhi was taken aback, and shouted to the young man, "Second Brother, why are you here?"
Wu Song persuaded him directly, "I am here to persuade you to surrender under the order of brother Gongming. Now that the Great Song Dynasty is exhausted, the emperor uses treacherous ministers to cause trouble, and forced his uncle to rebel. He even forced him to death." The queen, the princess and the prince. All the subjects in the world are heartbroken. Is it possible that the eldest brother still wants to work for such a foolish king?"
"Shut up!"
Wu Zhi stopped drinking, and his spiritual sense swept around and said, "Our Wu family has eaten the king's salary for generations. Others can rebel, but our Wu family can't. Your Majesty was only temporarily deceived by traitors, and there will always be a day of soberness!"
"Brother, can you stop lying to yourself?"
Wu Song said in a low voice, "How is the emperor's current appearance different from that of King Zhou of Shang? We are just imitating King Wu of Zhou and pleading for the people of the world. The eldest brother is brave, and if he serves his elder brother Gongming, he will be of great use. Why bother in this dirty court How can you be so useless that you have nowhere to display your abilities?"
Wu Zhi shook his head and said, "Let's go! There are no brothers in the battlefield. No matter what, I, Wu Zhi, will not oppose Song Dynasty."
"Brother is really stupid!"
Wu Song was not a person who could speak eloquently, so he was blocked by Wu Zhi at this moment.
He left angrily and went down the mountain.
In the mandarin duck building at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Mengfang is hosting a feast for sworn brothers Zhang Biao and Jiang Zhong.
The two poured wine for him, patted their chests and assured, "Brother, don't worry, we two brothers are here. No matter how powerful Lin Chong is, he can't escape from here."
"That is, our brothers practiced under Qingxu Daoist Master Qingfeng Mountain, Ziyang Cave. These are the Twelve Golden Immortals who explain the eight scriptures. The brothers and sisters in the sect are highly skilled and spread all over the world. Would you still be afraid of Lin Chong? ?”
"Brother, I knew this earlier, that's why I invited you over!"
Zhang Mengfang raised his wine glass to toast with them and drank with them.
The two of them were indeed disciples of Qingfeng Mountain, but they were just low-level laborers in the outer sect. They were coolies in Qingfeng Mountain to build the mountain gate.
They have only learned some superficial Taoism, even so, they also have some cultivation bases, and they have just broken through the state of transforming gods.
The realm of transforming gods is now everywhere in the human world.
Not to mention that in this fairy world, their level is only able to show off their prestige in the secular world.
Zhang Mengfang reused them like treasures, he had no choice but to make friends with these two brothers.
Zhang Biao suggested to him, "Brother, if you want me to tell you, you might as well go to the court and ask the court to dismiss Wu Zhi's chief soldier. I heard that his brother Wu Song seems to have joined Song Gongming. Such a traitor What kind of loyal and brave people can come out of a house of thieves?"
Jiang Zhong nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes. His brother has already rebelled, so it's hard to guarantee that he won't. We have to make plans early, so as not to be passive."
Zhang Mengfang said, "I have already presented to the Privy Council, but someone in the court spoke for Wu Zhi, saying that the Wu family has been loyal and good for generations, and there will never be rebels. Moreover, Wu Song committed suicide in the street last time. I saw it! Right now we don’t have any real evidence, so we can’t say that this person has come back to life, and framed Wu Zhi with a dead person, right?”
"Captain, I assure you, Wu Song has really come back to life. Many people have seen this!"
Jiang Zhong and Zhang Biao shouted anxiously.
Zhang Mengfang said, "Catch the thief and get dirty, and catch the adulterer. If we don't catch Wu Song with our own hands, no one can tell."
Jiang Zhong and Zhang Biao looked at each other and said coldly, "Don't worry, brother, we will send troops to arrest this thief immediately. If we catch him, brother will immediately report to the court and take away Wu Zhi's official position. From now on, Yanggu Pass will be my brother's. gone."
"Yes, yes!"
Zhang Mengfang raised his glass and laughed happily, as if he had seen his future.
Yangguguan is a good place. If you become the commander-in-chief of Yangguguan, you will be granted the title of wife and son, and the three generations of descendants can enjoy the blessings.
At this time, there was a sudden shout from downstairs, "Are you trying to arrest me?"
