please make me king

Chapter 1384
Geyubao is located [-] miles north of Xuanfu, [-] steps away from the city.

There are four mountains standing on the ground, and the path is rugged. Because kudzu once grew in the valley, it is named Geyubao.

The general guarding Xuanfu Middle Road is stationed here, starting from Chicheng in the east and ending in Zhangjiakou in the west, with a length of [-] miles.

Under the jurisdiction of Longmenwei No. [-] and Fort No. [-], it covers the fence to the north of the town.

Therefore, after the rebel army occupied Xuanfu City, only by conquering here in time can they protect the left wing of Xuanfu.

On the same day, at the same time that Zhang Shun led Li Shukong and Yang Chengzu to set off, Li Zicheng, Zhang Fatty and the former Xuanfu governor Zhang Weishi's three battalions also left Xuanfu City.

Although Zhang Weishi's battalion was not a cavalry army, most of them came out of the side and were quite good at riding, so he was able to recruit horses and mules in the city to travel, which could catch up with the speed of Li Zicheng and Zhang Fatty's cavalry.

Their three battalions, one in front and one in back, only took half a day to rush from Xuanfu City to Geyubao, fifty miles away.

Liu Hui, the general stationed at Geyubao on Nazhong Road, had an early warning, and quickly ordered the soldiers to lock the gate of the city, planted mines and firearms, and stood ready.

When Zhang Weishi saw it, he couldn't help but immediately stepped forward and said, "I am Zhang Weishi from the Xuanfu. I don't know where Liu Hui is?"

When Liu Hui saw him in the city, he couldn't help being taken aback, then hesitated for a moment, then walked to the front of the tower, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Zhang Fujun, we parted in the past, but now we are the masters, I don't know what to do." Say something?"

Zhang Weishi couldn't help laughing and said: "You and I were originally Ming officials, but it was only because the emperor lost his virtue that the world was in chaos."

"The only ones who are fighting for the front are Qin and Jin'er. The soldiers of the Xuanfu, if they don't invest in gold, they follow Qin, with the exception of Gaimo. It stands to reason that people have their own ambitions, and this old man should not talk about it."

"It's just that King Shun was benevolent and righteous, and all the generals and generals were named marquises; the second is that Hua and barbarians are different, how can there be any reason to abandon China and follow the barbarians? The third is that although the later Jin soldiers were prosperous, once they met King Shun, they suffered repeated setbacks. All these three, I hope you will think about it carefully!"

To tell the truth, Zhang Weishi may not have had the heart to make both ends meet at the beginning, but when he heard that the rebel army defeated Azig, King Azig of Yingwu County, Rao Yubeile Abatai, Gu Shanerzhen, Wanyan Yechen and others, he surrendered Gushanerzhen Ah Shan.

Immediately, he stopped thinking, and prepared to follow Zhang Shun honestly.

In the world of great struggle between husbands and wives, the front of the soldiers is the first.

Invincible, even though the saint is resurrected and Marquis Wu is alive, it is useless; great victory, that is, reckless and gentle, is also the master of others, nothing more than that.

Liu Hui was quite hesitant when he heard the words, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while.

When Zhang Weishi saw him, he couldn't help but said to Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang: "Although this Geyu Fortress is far away from the Eastern Captives, the general Liu Hui is quite capable, and there are more than a thousand hosts and guests in the city. It may be difficult to conquer in a short while."

"The art of war says: attacking the heart is the top priority, and attacking the city is the bottom. Now I see Liu Hui swaying left and right, and it is difficult to make a decision for a while. In this case, why don't I put some pressure on him and let him understand King Shun's grace!"

"Oh?" Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled when they heard the words, and said, "We are familiar with this matter, but it's just 'cutting its wings and leaving its backbone alone'. Please wait a moment, Mr. Zhang Guogong, I will wait." Go and come back."

After finishing speaking, Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang will ride away and capture the nearby castle.

Unexpectedly, when Zhang Weishi saw this, he quickly called the two of them to stop and said, "I don't know where you two are going?"

Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang took it for granted, "Of course we went to Changyukou and set down this fort to make an example of you!"

Changyukou Fort is [-] miles west of Geyu Fort, and is at the corner of Geyu Fort.

If Li Zicheng, the rebel army, hadn't brought three battalions of troops to trap Geyubao to death this time, I am afraid that Changyukoubao troops would have appeared outside Geyubao.

Now the general Liu Huizheng is having a hard time choosing between left and right, if he takes the opportunity to take down this fort, it will not only deter him, but also cut off his arm, making him even more isolated and helpless.

"Although Changyukou is good, it's not as far away as Dabaiyangbao!" Unexpectedly, Zhang Weishi shook his head when he heard the words.

"Dabaiyang Fort is [-] miles east of Geyu Fort. The terrain is flat, and it is most convenient for cavalry to drive."

"There are only three or four hundred soldiers stationed in the castle on Wednesday."

"If you get this place, Longmen can't save you; Zhaochuan and Xiaobaiyang can only look at the ocean and sigh. The Xiyangfang, Qingbiankou, Changyukou, Geyu and other forts are all mine!"

Zhang Weishi really deserves to be the Governor of the Xuan Mansion. Although he is not as capable as Ye Tinggui, the Governor of Datong, he still has some skills.

With just a few words, he solved the plight of General Liu Hui who was guarding Geyubao on Xuanfu Middle Road.

It turns out that this branch of Shouxuanfu Middle Road has a city and ten castles under its jurisdiction.

In human terms, it is a long "long snake formation" in the shape of a long strip.

If the rebels first occupied Dabaiyang Fort, then the four forts of Yangfang, Qingbiankou, Changyukou and Geyu would have no choice but to surrender to the rebels.

When Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang heard that the Dabaiyang Fort was about the same size as Changyukou, they couldn't help being quite moved.

"That's fine, then I'll have to take care of Zongbing Zhang!" Li Zicheng glanced at Zhang Weishi, and finally turned to Zhang Fatty.

Zhang Weishi didn't know what Li Zicheng meant, so he could only smile wryly, pretending he didn't hear it.

The fatty Zhang is familiar with this, but he smiled and said: "It's okay to go, but I have to borrow a few cannons from Li Shuai for fun!"

"How many doors?"

"Ten gates!"

"There are only three doors!"

The two bargained for a long time in front of Zhang Weishi, and finally settled on "the price of five doors".

Originally, Zhang Weishi was curious about Li Zicheng and Fatty Zhang riding all the way, where did the artillery come from.

In the end, Li Zicheng called for five artillerymen and handed them over to Fatty Zhang on the spot. Suddenly, Zhang Weishi turned pale with fright: "Is this Hongyi cannon pulling and running like this?"

"That's right, otherwise, how could the rebel army be able to run across Henan, Shaanxi, and Shanxi?" Li Zicheng also smiled wryly when he heard the words.

Not to mention Zhang Weishi, even Li Zicheng was stunned by Zhang Shun's extravagant behavior of equipping ten war horses with one cannon.

However, after he enjoyed the convenience, his distressed thoughts went to Qistop instead of Tenstop.

"No wonder, no wonder neither the Ming court nor Hou Jin is the opponent of King Shun!" Zhang Weishi sighed, "If there are so many red barbarian cannons here, no one in the world can stop them!"

Not to mention what Zhang Weishi was thinking, let's say that after the fat man borrowed the cannon, he immediately galloped all the way east.

It only took an hour of effort to reach the Great White Sun Fort.

The garrison of Dabaiyang Fort quickly ordered people to close the city gate tightly, and launched Western, Mielu, and Lianzhu cannons to wait for the rebels.

Unexpectedly, when Fatty Zhang gave an order, fifteen "Red Barbarian Cannons" were lined up, pointing at the city sideways, and the defense suddenly collapsed.
