please make me king

Chapter 1198
"What? The Ming army went all the way to the southeast along Qinshui!" Hong Chengchou was leading the army to the direction of Huaiqing Fucheng, but he heard this information suddenly.

It turned out that after Li Fuchen repelled Li Chongzhen's cavalry that day, the scouts of the rebel army were able to infiltrate, and finally detected the movements of the Ming army and reported it.

"Not good, it looks like the Ming army is going to run away again this time." Hong Chengchou, who had suffered so much, finally realized the nature of his opponent's "turning into the wind", so he couldn't help judging the situation, and said decisively.

"Looking at its movements, the Ming army should be preparing to flee to Wuzhi for defense."

"The messenger listened to the order: Li Fuchen hanged behind me tightly, and must not lose the traces of the Ming army; Li You and Zhao Guangyuan's two battalions followed closely behind, waiting for the opportunity to chase and kill; please Zuo Shuai Li Xin go north immediately , Cut off the Ming army's back, there must be no mistakes!"

It has to be said that Hong Chengchou was indeed very experienced in using troops, and he was keen to spot the opportunity for combat.

Both Yang Sichang and Zhu Dadian planned well, but they never expected that Wen County, where the Ming army was originally stationed, had already changed its flag.

As the saying goes: "One careless move, the whole game is lost."

An inconspicuous mistake by Zhu Dadian, governor of water transportation, finally decided the outcome of the war.

But how did Zhu Dadian know about his mistake?

As early as when he led his troops to retreat to Wuzhi along the Qinshui River, he had already sent a messenger to Wen County to inform his general who stayed in Wen County.

Not only did Zhu Dadian not realize the danger, but he was quite proud of it.

"If the governor hadn't reserved a team of troops here, I'm afraid I would be helpless today!" He couldn't help but triumphantly said.

"This move is called 'Xianzi'. It seems useless. If you make a move where it doesn't matter, it is enough to determine the outcome at the critical moment!"

"High, it's really high. A national player like Fei Junmen is not enough to come up with such a clever move!" General Zhang Shiyi immediately applauded after hearing this.

The other generals couldn't help being ten thousand dissatisfied when they saw that a small general took the lead.

So they also expressed their admiration for Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation, for his "handy hand", and only praised a retreat as if he had won a great victory.

Not to mention how this group of Ming troops flattered each other, let's say that the messenger received the military order and hurried to Wen County City early, claiming to see the general who stayed behind.

The county magistrate of Wen County heard him, and hurriedly welcomed him into the city and said, "I don't know why your Excellency is panicking. If it's convenient, tell me to pass it on to the general manager!"

"What are you, you dare to inquire about military aircraft!" The messenger couldn't help but sneered.

"Don't inquire about what you shouldn't inquire about, lest you mistake yourself!"

"This... I don't want to do this either." Nazhi County was reprimanded by the chief soldier, but he was not annoyed, and explained instead.

"It's just that the one is always intoxicated in the gentleness, and the hangover is still there. I don't know what your Excellency is going to do?"

"This..." At this moment, the messenger couldn't help but look at the county magistrate in front of him.

It seems that the magistrate has already been satisfied with the general manager, so I have to show some kindness to him, so as not to offend the Shangguan for no reason.

Thinking of this, the messenger couldn't help changing his tone, and asked in a harmonious voice: "I don't know where that one is, can I ask the county magistrate to lead me to see him?"

"I can't see it, I can't see it!" The magistrate smiled bitterly when he heard the words, "You also know his temper."

"Now that you're hangover in Ruanrou Township, who dares to call him?"

"This...but the military situation is urgent. Does he still dare to violate the military order?"

The military situation is on fire, if the military plane is missed, what can be done!

"According to the rules, it is naturally so; but if everything follows the rules, how can there be so many dirty things in the world?" Wen County Magistrate laughed.

"Then...then what should we do?" The messenger couldn't help being anxious when he heard the words.

"Uh... I wonder if you have documents? It's really not possible. I can hand them over to him." Wen County Magistrate said with a smile.

"It's...so good!" The messenger hesitated for a while, but he didn't dare to open the letter because there was a mud seal on it.

After the courier delivered Zhu Dadian's military order, the county magistrate of Wen County hurried to find the general.

It's just that as soon as the magistrate left the room, he never thought that he would "stab" the letter in his hand and tear it open. When he opened the letter inside, he was surprised and delighted.

"Shuai Zuo, what's the situation?" Xing Ruhu, who had a gray beard, couldn't help asking.

"It's really hard to find anywhere. It's all due to hard work!" It turned out that the magistrate of Wen County was none other than Li Xin, the false county magistrate who fooled Zhu Dadian and others that day.

"Then Zhu Dadian couldn't stay in Huaiqing Mansion anymore, and led more than ten thousand troops to flee along Qinshui to Wuzhi!"

"He was worried about the movement of the rebel army in the direction of Wen County. On the one hand, he ordered the general to report the military situation, and on the other hand, he hoped that he would return to the army in time and retreat to Wuzhi together."

"Then can he still go?" Xing Ruhu couldn't help laughing.

"Even if he succeeds, I'm afraid Zhu Dadian will not dare to see him!" Li Xin couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

It turned out that Hong Chengchou from Hong Chengchou led the army to the north, and ordered him to join Ma Jinzhong and Zuo Yi who were about to cross the river, and then inserted between Huaiqing Mansion and Xiuwu, cutting off the return route of the officers and soldiers.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when his own battalion arrived, he tricked out the general, and let Xing Ruhu chop it up with a single knife, and killed five hundred soldiers under him.

Of course the dead can no longer join Zhu Dadian, but the living may not be able to.

"Xing Ruhu listens to the order!" Li Xin couldn't help laughing, "I understand that you choose [-] soldiers to form an army alone, and under the banner of the general, go to the bank of Qinshui to join the Ming army Zhu Dadian!"

"This..." Xing Ruhu was taken aback when he heard the words, and then realized that Li Xin was going to give him a military merit, and he couldn't help but thank him very much.

"You don't have to thank me. This time, you will take my cousin Li Yang with you. You two have made great achievements, and the benefits of both of you will be indispensable in the future!" Li Xin couldn't help pointing out.

Now that the rebel army is using their troops on a large scale, there is a severe shortage of talents and soldiers. These two can be regarded as reliable people.

After the two discussed it, Xing Ruhu went back to the house, chopped off the messenger with a single knife, and then happily picked out the men under his command.

His disciples and the Li family's children brought by Li Yang are their confidantes, so they naturally give priority to staying with him. In addition, the men and horses of Li Xin's bid camp are all brave and strong, and they almost picked the two of them. Eye.

With great difficulty, five hundred people were gathered, and the trusted children were assigned to serve as corporal leaders and special leaders. After reorganizing the team, they changed the uniforms and banners of the officers and soldiers, and rushed all the way to the Qinshui coast.

And Li Xin also gave up Wenxian City, leaving only two reliable people to spread the word, not waiting for Ma Jinzhong and Zuo Yi, and went all the way to the southeast of the place agreed by Zhu Dadian. Annihilate this beast in one fell swoop!
