Chapter 503 The reason

Chapter 503 The reason
On this day, Zhang Shenyan was complaining to Zhang Shun: "It turns out that the officials in the city are all cunning people, but now according to the order of the lord, they replaced those students from Songyang Academy."

"It's just that these people are honest, but they are too honest. They are often played around by the cunning people in the city, and they are not even proficient in clerical and arithmetic. Every time I teach them how to behave, With that kind of skill, I might as well walk through it myself!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shun said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang. When Luoyang City is a little more stable, I plan to imitate the example of Baodu Village. I will also open a new academy here in Luoyang City, specializing in teaching money and food, criminal names, documents and arresting robbers. After graduation, Mr. Zhang will be able to relax a bit."

The two were discussing government affairs when they suddenly heard Sun Chengzong shouting outside the door: "My lord, Song County has sent a battle report. Cao Wenzhao and Xu Quan have already left the county seat of Song County!"

"Ah?" Zhang Shun couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and his brows were filled with joy, and he quickly shouted: "Come in and report!"

The five students Xu Quan, Hong Jinyang, Li Xijiu, Wang Maozhong and Sun Chengzong who took refuge in Zhang Shun at the beginning all participated in the battle of defending the "breakthrough" in Song County, and they are all capable of both civil and military skills.

Zhang Shun couldn't think of how to arrange them for a while, so he stayed by his side as an assistant.

Now the most outstanding Xu Quan was released by Zhang Shunwai to serve as Cao Bianjiao's staff officer. Among the other four, only Sun Chengzong was the most favored by Zhang Shun.After Xu Quan left, Sun Chengzong was the head of the staff in charge of military aircraft documents and other daily work.

Seeing Sun Chengzong coming in, Zhang Shun smiled and said, "This Cao Bianjiao is worthy of being the nephew of the famous general Cao Wenzhao. He really has some skills. According to my estimated itinerary, they just rushed to Song County and captured this city!"

Sun Chengzong had read Xu Quan's letter a long time ago, and replied in a low voice with a little embarrassment: "General Cao Bianjiao's performance in this battle is mediocre, and it all depends on the staff Xu Quan's efforts!"

"Oh?" Zhang Shun had no sense of being slapped in the face by his subordinates, "So Xu Quan is the leader?"

In the Ming Dynasty, there are two methods of counting merit by combat and by counting merit by the head.At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, it was customary to count meritorious service by combat, which was divided into three categories: "extraordinary meritorious service, first meritorious service, and secondary meritorious service".

It's just that with the decline of the imperial court's control ability, soldiers and soldiers have more fraudulent deeds, so they have changed to count the meritorious deeds according to the number of beheads.

As the leader of the rebel army, Zhang Shun naturally couldn't play the formal operation of the imperial court.He roughly divided the merits of the soldiers into the first and the second.

According to Zhang Shun's understanding, the first achievement is the MVP, the second achievement is the gold medal, and the rest are nothing but nothing.

Sun Chengzong suppressed a smile when he heard the words: "If Xu Quan is said to be the first meritorious service, there is still one person who should be the extraordinary meritorious service!"

Zhang Shun became even more strange when he heard the words. Could it be that military wizards appeared in the righteous army camp?He hurriedly asked, "Who is this?"

"This is you, my lord!" Sun Chengzong laughed loudly.

"How about He Fu, the county magistrate? But surrendered?" Zhang Shun didn't care about Sun Chengzong's cat, but wondered why He Zhenzi, who was so loyal and unyielding before, gave in?

This feeling was like discovering that the originally noble goddess was actually from a club, and he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"He Zhi County? He Zhi County has been dismissed!" Sun Chengzong responded quickly.

"Ah? It's the Ming court's fault to have such a loyal and virtuous talent and not to use them!" Zhang Shun couldn't help but regretted.

It turned out that after Zhang Shun lied to Song County, he did not abuse, kill or rob. He Fu, the magistrate, Fu Yuren, the student Liu Yuejiang, and Wei Zhiyou, the guard, all had a good impression of Zhang Shun.

Especially He Fu of Nazhi County, despite Zhang Shun's persuasion, still refused to follow Zhang Shun's request.

However, he knew that he was hated by his generation because he prevented the eunuchs sent by Chongzhen from mining silver.

Now that I have lost the county seat of Song County, I will definitely be thrown into trouble by my generation.Next time the rebel army comes again, don't talk about guarding the county seat, I'm afraid I'm lucky to be able to escape my life from the eunuch.

He Fu, the county magistrate, is a good official who governs benevolently and loves the people, so he waited for Zhang Shun and other rebels to withdraw.He told Fu Yuren, the deputy leader, Liu Yuejiang, the student, and Wei Zhiyou, the guard, that if the rebel army came again, they should surrender to King Shun in advance to save the lives of the people in the city.

Among them, Fu Yuren and Liu Yuejiang were alright, and still had a bit of loyalty, but Wei Zhiyou had a different idea.

That Wei Zhiyou was originally the rebel army under the command of "Crossing General" Huang Laier, but because the rebel army was weak, he wanted to find a way out.

As a result, he was "loyal" with He Fu, the county magistrate, but because all the soldiers under his command ran away with King Shun.He took up the post of garrison in Song County for nothing, but he had no actual garrison.

When He Fu, the former county magistrate, was here, everything was easy to talk about.But now that he can't protect himself, what should he do?

So since He Fu, the county magistrate, was dismissed, Wei Zhiyou hastily paid out of his own pocket to recruit nearby "hair gourds".He trained day and night, only to train another elite team.

It's just that the soldiers and horses have not yet been trained, and it is shocking to hear that the rebels outside the city have arrived again.Wei Zhiyou hurriedly summoned Fu Yuren, the deputy leader, and Liu Yuejiang, the student, and said, "He Zhi County has already left, and the safety of Song County is in our hands."

"It's just that I have lost the elite of my subordinates, and the recruits have not been trained, so I am invincible. We will follow the old strategy, form a corner, and continue to defend!"

Fu Yuren and Liu Yuejiang did not have any objections. According to the usual practice, Liu Yuejiang led the people to defend the Pingfeng Village next to the county seat. Fu Yuren was in charge of everything inside and outside the city, and Wei Zhiyou was in charge of the defense of the county.

But when Cao Wenzhao led the army to the city of Song County, Wei Zhiyou couldn't help but change his face.

He had been fighting with the officers and soldiers for a long time, and he couldn't hide the temperament of the elite servants in the city. Wei Zhiyou couldn't help but feel a little timid.

Just at this time Xu Quan stepped forward to persuade him to surrender, claiming that the soldiers under the city were King Shun's soldiers, so how could Wei Zhiyou still have the fighting spirit?

If you fight, you can't fight, and if you defend, you don't know if you can defend it.Even if Song County was defended, once Xinzhi County arrived, he didn't know how he would treat himself as a "surrendered thief".

Thinking of this, Wei Zhiyou quickly said to Fu Yuren, the deputy leader: "Although there are few rebels in the city, they are all elite servants of the frontier army. It's no problem that one can be ten. It's not that Xiaoxiaosong County can resist."

"Since that generation is under the command of King Shun, we have already received the order from He Fu, the county magistrate, why not surrender?"

"Can the people in the city be saved?" Fu Yuren was not as good as Wei Zhiyou, but he trusted his judgment, and quickly asked about the key.

"King Shun is benevolent and will definitely not do anything harmful to the people!" Wei Zhiyou quickly assured.

"If that's the case, let's surrender!" Fu Yuren knew very well that without the support of Wei Zhiyou, he and Liu Yuejiang, two scribes, would not be able to defend Song County.
