Chapter 232 Kill and surrender

Chapter 232 Kill and surrender
The inspection department began in the Five Dynasties and flourished in the Song Dynasty. Jin and Xixia also had similar settings.Due to the legacy of the Song and Jin Dynasties in the Yuan Dynasty, the inspection department set up was mainly the robber arresting officers of the prefectures and counties. The Ming Dynasty followed the same example, but supplemented by administrative power.

The inspection department is generally located in the main roads of Guanjin and is under the jurisdiction of the local prefectures and counties.

The officials in charge of the inspection department are inspectors, and they are officials from the ninth rank.The subordinates under its command are nothing more than archers selected from the local farmers.

The so-called "bowmen" does not mean archers, but the collective name of the inspector's subordinates, even if they are holding knives, guns and halberds, they are also called "bowmen".

The inspection department is between the guards and the prefectures and counties, and it is a transitional institution between the military system and the civil affairs system in the Ming Dynasty.According to the regulations, it is necessary to transfer the villagers and the people to carry out daily training on weekdays.

But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, when even the Weisuo system in the military system began to deteriorate, some of the inspectors had a certain combat effectiveness because of their daily duties such as combating smuggling and arresting thieves.

Of course, more archers in the inspection department "do not seek sharpness in equipment, do not perform martial arts at all, and do not arrest prisoners and robbers".Not only extorted and extorted the merchants and people in the past, harassed the people, but also had a lot of theft and robbery.If you talk about fighting bandits, you absolutely dare not.

Ordinarily, the inspection department of Huangyuguan should do the same. Hearing that Zhang Shun led the army, they should be rushed away, but everything is just in case.

Outside of Huangyu Pass is the Shunde Mansion, but now the person in charge of the military preparations of the Shunde Mansion is a ruthless person.

His surname is Lu, his name is Xiangsheng, his style name is Jiandou, and his style name is Douzhan and Jiezhan, and his nickname is Jiutai. He is from Yixing County, Changzhou Prefecture, Southern Zhili Province.He has a fair complexion, a thin body, and thick arms and bones. He can use a [-]-jin sword for practicing kung fu.

He once served as the magistrate of Daming Prefecture. During the "Jisi Change" in the second year of Chongzhen, he recruited [-] people to help defend Beijing, and was trusted by Emperor Chongzhen.

So he was promoted to the right to participate in politics and deputy envoy, and went out to rectify the military equipment of the three prefectures of Daming, Guangping, and Shunde to prevent the rebel army from breaking into Zhili from northern Henan and disturbing the capital.

After he took office, he shared joys and sorrows with the soldiers, trained them day and night, and trained a soldier and horse, which he named himself "Tianxiong Army".He was also promoted to inspector because of his political achievements, and was still in charge of the military preparations of the three prefectures.

He heard that the rebel army was becoming more and more rampant in Shanxi, and worried that the rebel army might break into Shunde Mansion at any time, so he specially ordered people to strengthen the defenses of Huangyuguan. Therefore, the trivial matter that the rebel army thought it would be easy to capture before, was bowed by more than a hundred people The soldiers took advantage of the geographical advantage to block it.

However, this kind of accident was nothing to Zhang Shun. "Everything is undecided, ask the cannon" is Zhang Shun's conventional tactics.

Facing the dangerous Huangyuguan City, Zhang Shun didn't build siege equipment, and didn't play tricks. He directly ordered Li Shi'an to pull out the artillery and bombard it with live ammunition.

It is appropriate to attack the stone city wall with live ammunition.No matter how strong your stone wall is, if the shell hits the wall, the huge impact will inevitably damage some of the stone bars.

If the accuracy of the artillery is better, if it hits the parapet of the city wall, the light one will destroy the parapet, and the severe one will throw rocks, causing a lot of casualties to the archers on the city.

Although the terrain of Huangyuguan is dangerous, the defenders are just archers from the countryside. They have some knives, guns, bows and arrows in their hands.

Although the inspection of Huangyuguan was tenacious, after all, flesh and blood could not withstand the sharp artillery, and after only a few rounds of artillery bombardment, the female wall on Huangyuguan city was ready to be destroyed.Most of the archers were terrified and had to hide under the city walls.

Seeing that there was no threat on the city, Zhang Shun sent Zhang Sanbai to lead fifty elite soldiers to climb up to the city of Huangyuguan with ropes.

After the archers in the city discovered that the rebels had rushed up the city wall, they tried to resist, but were easily defeated by Zhang Sanbai.

Not long after, the door was closed and opened, and Zhang Sanbai personally held the three-pointed two-edged knife dripping blood in his hand to welcome Zhang Shun into the city.

When Zhang Shun entered, he saw that seven or eight people had died and more than a dozen people had been injured in Guancheng.Zhang asked by the way: "Where is the inspection at this customs?"

In the end, no one dared to answer, Zhang Sanbai had no choice but to answer by himself: "I resisted to the end, I was stabbed to death!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shun sighed and said, "Since that's the case, after the survivors have accepted the certificates of surrender for each of his corpses, you three infantry generals will be divided."

After the bow soldiers who surrendered received their certificates of surrender, Zhang Shun issued an order: "This inspector can be regarded as a loyal person, and now each is his master. Since he died, he should be buried generously! The rest of the injured people are all loyal people. , but I admire it a little, and let it go back to my hometown."

Those who were injured couldn't help thanking Zhang Shun after hearing the words, saying "benevolence and righteousness", while those who surrendered were all ashamed.

These injured people were said to be injured, but in fact most of them were seriously injured and hard to recover. Firstly, Zhang Shun could not treat them in time, and secondly, he was not afraid of them reporting to the government quickly.It is uncertain whether they can even return to their hometown alive.

But these archers who surrendered did not dare to bet that none of these people would return, and reported their affairs to the government.Now that Zhang Shun let the wounded go back, where is there any way out for these people?I had no choice but to follow the bandit all the way to the dark.

Since Zhang Shun conquered Huangyu Pass, he quickly sent envoys to report to the second master "Zijin Liang" and invited him to join him and transfer to Zhili.

The words are divided into two parts, not to mention what is going on with Zhang Shun.Besides, since the "King of Troubled Times" left without saying goodbye, and shared camp with "Zijinliang", Zhang Shun and others, he followed the "Eight Great Kings" to Yushe and Wuxiang.

As a result, the fleeting time was unfavorable, and they met Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, and did a battle, and both sides suffered a lot of losses. The "King of Troubled Times" has lost his previous vigor after repeated defeats, and he can't help but feel depressed and hard to let go.

At this time, the student Han Tingxian waited for the opportunity to come to visit him. "The King of Troubled Times" was in a bad mood, so he had to blame him and said: "You have a face? If you hadn't provoked my brother's loyalty in the middle, how could I have ended up like this?"

"Now that the government is intimidating, and I have offended the second head of the 'Zijin Liang', the world is big, where is my 'King of Troubled Times' shelter?"

Han Tingxian couldn't help laughing and said: "Since ancient times, good birds choose trees and good officials choose masters. You are a great talent, so where can you not go? In my opinion, you are cherishing your own pearl, not Know yourself!"

The "King of Troubled Times" couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words, and asked, "How do you say this? Now you and I are already grasshoppers on the same rope. If there is a way, tell me and listen to me!"

When Han Tingxian saw that the matter was divided, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You know that I offended that 'Zijin Liang' several times, why didn't this person dare to kill me?"

"Because I have a way, which happens to reach the ears of the governor of Shanxi. Since the 'Zijin Liang' wants to surrender to the officers and soldiers, it must follow my way. If it offends me, how can it survive?"

"Now I see that you, 'King of Troubled Times', are also a hero. Why don't you seize the opportunity of that 'Zijin Liang' and become an innocent family? In the future, you will be able to be a high-ranking official with a generous salary!"

"This?" "The King of Troubled Times" was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking, "Is even the 'Zijin Liang' trying to surrender to the court?"

"What do you think is a good end for being a thief?" Han Tingxian sneered, "It's just a group of frogs at the bottom of the well. Wait until the imperial court frees up and mobilizes elite frontier troops to enter Shanxi. Bandits and bandits can be calmed overnight, as easy as flipping an ear!"

"If you have the heart, you can send a confidant, bring a letter from me, and go to visit the middleman, so that you can reach the governor's eyes and ears."

When the "King of Chaos" heard it, he couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly dispatched his own brother, nicknamed "King of Chaos", with a letter, to visit Zhang Daojun in Douzhuang, Yangcheng.

At that time, because the rebel army was powerful, Zhang Daojun's family fought in Lingchuan again, and the damage was not small, so the soldiers were temporarily asked to rest at home.And he was summoned by Xu Dingchen, the trusted governor of Shanxi, and was about to rush to Xu Dingchen's camp to serve.

At this time, the "King of the World" happened to meet Zhang Daojun who was going north.After Zhang Daojun read Han Tingxian's letter, he sighed and said, "I know the loyalty of the two of you brothers! It's just that whether you succeed or not is not up to me. If you trust me, follow me to Fujun Daying, let's see how Fujun makes a decision, okay?"

The "King of Confusion" did not dare to disobey the words, so he had to follow Zhang Daojun to the north.

At this time, Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, did not dare to sit still in the Taiyuan mansion.After he returned to Taiyuan, he first visited and appeased King Jin, the clan of Taiyuan Mansion, and then led his [-] troops to Liaozhou City, trying to conquer the lost land.

It happened that Zhang Daojun led the "King of Confusion" to arrive, and Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, just learned from him that the "thieves" were not evenly distributed in Liaozhou City. Because of one woman, they had already divided into two camps.

One headed by the "Zijin Liang" is still entrenched in Liaozhou City; the other headed by the "Eight Great Kings" has already fought against Xuanda Governor Zhang Zongheng, and the two sides are tied.

Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the words. He thought to himself: It just so happens that Zongheng is blocked by bandits and cannot go north.And the bandits in Liaozhou City are weak, and it's time for me to make great achievements!

Only then did Zhang Daojun tell Xu Dingchen about the "King of the World", but Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, would not see him, so he replied: "Daojun is confused! I am a member of the imperial court, how can I have contacts with bandits?"

"Go back to him. If you want to surrender, let him cut off the bandit chief 'Zijin Liang' to show your sincerity in surrender! If not, once the heavenly soldiers arrive, such disasters will not follow!"

Zhang Daojun had already expected this result, so he had no choice but to relay the words of Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, to the "King of the World". The "King of Chaos" was furious when he heard the words, but had to swallow his anger, so he had to say goodbye to Zhang Daojun and return to report to the "King of Chaos".
