Chapter 1180
Roll up your armor and move forward, stay away day and night, double your way, and fight for profit for hundreds of miles, then capture three generals - "Sun Tzu's Art of War"

"Commander, indeed Yang Sichang is here!" Wang Ding said excitedly in Huaiqing Mansion.

It turned out that just after the rebel army crossed the Yellow River led by Li Xin and Tuo Yangkun, Hong Chengchou, the commander of the South Route Army, also led the main force to follow and arrived at the newly occupied Huaiqing Prefecture.

Originally, after Hong Chengchou was captured by the rebel army, the standard battalion was completely lost. Later, after he took refuge in Zhang Shun, he served as the chief of staff.

Therefore, when he served as General Pingdong this time, he had no cronies of the standard battalion under his command.

It just so happened that Zhang Shun's Yulin camp was composed of Yulin generals' cronies and servants. Many of them were able to read the golden drum banner and convey military orders, and there were also elites who could ride horses and archery and detect the enemy's situation.

Therefore, by the way, Zhang assigned the Yulin camp to Hong Chengchou as a standard camp.

Therefore, Wang Ding and others, who are quite knowledgeable in the art of war, not only followed Hong Chengchou to Huaiqing Mansion, but also sometimes served as aides.

"No hurry!" Pingdong General Hong Chengchou smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said to himself, "Since he is here, don't even think about leaving."

"Wei Zhiyou and other generals were ordered to speed up the crossing of the river; Cao Bianjiao, the commander-in-chief of the right, was ordered to cut off his return; Huang Shoucai was ordered to deploy naval forces along the Yellow River to prevent him from crossing south."

Yes, this is a plan.

A plan that has been deduced for a long time and made seven or eight preliminary plans.

A plan that can "lead the east to the west" and "lead the snake out of the hole".

The purpose is to annihilate the vital forces deployed by the officers and soldiers in the east and north of Henan, and completely open the door for the rebels to advance eastward.

All of Yang Sichang's behaviors were as expected by Yijun, which made Hong Chengchou, a veteran and wise man, a little bit unable to arouse the interest of fighting.

I've seen stupid ones, but I've never seen such stupid ones, even if you resist twice, it would be interesting to let me start a backup plan!

Hong Chengchou thought for a while, and couldn't help asking: "How is the progress of Zuo Shuai Li Xin and Tuo Yangkun?"

"How can it be so fast?" Wang Ding, Xiao Si, Du Hongyu, Zhang Hu and others couldn't help laughing.

"Don't worry about Zuo Shuai, Wen County is the hometown of General Chen and General Li, so why not get it?"

"It's just that Wanzi City is a bit dangerous. If the enemy is vigilant and defends against the danger, it may not be easy to attack!"

These people used to be local snakes in Yulin Town, so they naturally knew something about the energy of local snakes.

"Don't worry about it anywhere." Seeing that Hong Chengchou and his staff were worried about capturing Wanzi City, Shi Wenhuan couldn't help laughing.

"His Royal Highness King Shun's benevolent name is well known to everyone, and I'm afraid you don't know how popular he is in the local area!"

"I dare to say that, in Huaiqing Mansion and Zelu, just relying on the reputation of King Shun."

"It can be said to be: when you raise your arms and call out, the responders gather; talk empty and white teeth, and say to drop the city."

It turned out that when Zhang Shun first joined the rebel army, the Shanshan rebel army killed and looted a lot.

In places such as Zelu and Huaiqing, it is basically the existence that makes the people gnash their teeth, hate them to the bone, and stinks in the wind.

Therefore, when the rebel army left, the gentry and common people from all over the place took the lead to come forward.

Everyone has money to contribute money, has the strength to contribute, and builds forts and villages. For a time, the entire area is almost completely fortified.

However, among these notorious rebels, "Optimus Prime" and "King in Yellow" won the recognition of the local gentry and common people with their good military discipline and style of not looting or looting.

Since ancient times, "Thieves come like a comb, soldiers like a grate, and officials like a shave." It is extremely rare for Zhang Shun to not torture or kill.

This is also the reason why the rebel army was able to be welcomed into the city by the gentry of Meng County, and it was also the reason why under the leadership of Zhao Yutou, Li Xin and others, they were able to easily take Meng County and Huaiqing Prefecture.

Zhang Shun has been raising him for four years since he joined the army, treated others with kindness, and finally received a rich reward.

"Oh?" Hong Chengchou was taken aback when he heard the words, and said cautiously, "Mr. Shi, I wonder how sure you are?"

"I'm [-]% sure that Li Shuai will take Wen County; I'm [-]% sure that Tuo Zongbing will take Wanzicheng!" Shi Wenhuan said firmly.

"So tall?" Everyone was taken aback when they heard this, and couldn't help being surprised.

"Almost, King Shun's reputation is very good in Zezhou, Lu'an Mansion and Huaiqing Mansion, so there should be no problem." Seeing that Hong Chengchou was still a bit hesitant, Zhao Yutou couldn't help emphasizing.

"Okay, since there are two guarantors, I will order 'making dumplings'!" Hong Chengchou couldn't help laughing.

"This..." Shi Wenhuan didn't think there would be such a change, but he hesitated.

On the contrary, his two sons, Shi Yingxuan and Shi Yingpin, had just defected to the rebel army. Although they still had the merit of opening the door, it was still not enough.

The two couldn't help but said: "General, just give orders. If Li Shuai and Tuo Zongbing don't go well, we two brothers are willing to go one more time, so that these two places will turn against each other and surrender!"

"Okay, since you all have such confidence, then I will take a 'reassurance pill'. This time, I want to see where the minister of the Ministry of War, Yang Sichang, is fleeing!" laughed.

It is said that following Hong Chengchou's military order, someone rushed to Wenxian Ferry immediately to inform the boatman who had been waiting there for a long time.

The boatman got the military order, immediately rowed across the rolling Yellow River, and informed the sailors staying at the intersection of the Yiluo River and the Yellow River in the territory of Boshui.

"Admiral, General Hong ordered the river to be closed!" A boatman had already received the order and quickly notified Huang Shoucai who had been waiting for a long time.

Huang Shoucai, the "God of the River" who originally followed Zhang Sanbai to transport grain in Danshui, was also transferred back to Yanshi by Zhang Shun, appointed as the admiral of the navy, and led the navy composed of fishermen and boatmen on the Yellow River to participate in this battle to determine the ownership of the world. battle.

"Okay!" Huang Shoucai, who was still dark-faced, got the order and couldn't help but hastily ordered.

"Let the boatmen at each ferry retreat to the south bank and wait for the soldiers of the rebel army to cross the river. After the mobilization of the rebel army is completed, no one is required to carry people across the river unless there is an order!"

"In addition, let the fishermen everywhere be vigilant when they are fishing. If they find any movements of officers and soldiers, they should report to me as soon as possible. There must be no mistakes."

"Anyone who discovers the movement of officers and soldiers will be rewarded ten taels of silver once verified. If there are false reports, false reports, and wrong military information, don't blame the admiral for being merciless!"

Huang Shoucai received a military order here, and if he didn't take action, the boatman delivering the letter would continue to go down the river and drive directly to Xingze County, north of Zhengzhou.

"General Hong's military order, order the commander-in-chief to cross the river as planned!" The boatman leaned against the bank and shouted hastily.

"Okay, I got it!" The boatman had just finished speaking when a man surrounded by the crowd couldn't help but stepped forward to answer.

This person is none other than Gao Yigong who is nominally under the jurisdiction of Youshuai Cao Bianjiao, but has never shown up.

It turned out that Cao Bianjiao and others had fought fiercely with the governor Yang Sichang, the governor of water transport Zhu Dadian, and the governor of Henan Wu Sheng for a long time, but they never sent him to play, but ordered him to secretly occupy Xingze County, which is not very important.

This Xingze County is north of Xingyang, on the south bank of the Yellow River, adjacent to Zhengzhou on the south bank of the Yellow River, and adjacent to Yuanwu County on the north bank of the Yellow River.

Generally speaking, to cross the river from the north near Zhengzhou, you need to take the Huayuankou Ferry in the north of Zhengzhou.

But if you take the relatively simple Xingze Yellow River Ferry, there is nothing wrong with it.

Poor Yang Sichang had just arrived in Henan to take up a post. He only knew that there was a Huayuankou nearby, so he ordered the governor of Henan, Wu Sheng, to send someone to guard and monitor him.

But he didn't expect that there were only three or five broken boats at the ferry in Xingze County, there were already a crowd of ferry boats, and they were about to carry the rebel army across the river, cutting off his way back.

 Recently, there are some trivial matters in the author's family, and the heart and mind are haggard, and the update is less, please forgive me
