please make me king

Chapter 899

Zhang Shun didn't expect that the capture of Huazhou City would be so smooth. The rebel army just set up the golden cannon and field bombardment for a while, and saw the soldiers on the city retreat in a hurry.

Zuo Guangxian, the commander in chief of the Shaanxi army, had always been tenacious. He had lost several battles with the rebels, but he was still able to regroup, which was very difficult to deal with.

Whether it is gathering routs and sticking to Tongguan, or relying on Huayin for defensive counterattacks, they all played vigorously.

Zhang Shun never expected that this time the other party would run away after hearing the news, and directly abandoned Huazhou City.

When he sent soldiers to test the attack, he found that Huazhou City had already been defended by no soldiers.

"Where is He Jin?" Zhang Shun pulled his face and shouted sharply.

"The last general is here!" He Jin didn't expect Zhang Shun to be angry instead, and hurried forward to answer honestly.

"You and I lead two thousand cavalry, and immediately go west to pursue Zuo Guangxian's main force, and then I will lead the army to arrive!" Zhang Shun ordered.

"The last general takes orders!" He Jin responded subconsciously, and then realized that Zhang Shun would also follow, and couldn't help being extremely surprised.

Nahe Renlong said without embarrassment: "King Shun, brothers, one night and one night, no water or rice..."

"There was no shortage of dry food and drinking water along the way, where did the water and rice come from?" Zhang Shun sneered, "Let's record the success of capturing the city this time on your battalion!"

"Order the soldiers to bury pots and cook food outside the city, and rest for an hour!"

"He Renlong, you brought a dozen brothers into the city, and you said that if you want the city to be safe, you must bring wine and meat to reward the three armies. Otherwise, you, He Renlong, will leave Huazhou City alone!"

"Why me?" He Renlong always felt that Zhang Shun's words were strange.

"Because your reputation is much better than Ben Wang and He Jin!" Zhang Shun laughed.

"Hey, Your Highness King Shun, don't laugh at me, why don't I go!" He Renlong couldn't laugh or cry, begging for mercy.

Immediately, He Renlong led thirty or fifty soldiers into Huazhou City with a fierce look.

Then Zhang Shun ordered Hong Chengchou: "Mr. Hong, I have to trouble you to lead a hundred soldiers into the city to maintain order, so as not to cause chaos in the rear."

rear?Hong Chengchou couldn't help being surprised and said: "Your Highness King Shun, don't you want to go to the city to have a rest?"

Chief of Staff Hong Chengchou looked at Zhang Shun's posture, of course he knew that he would continue to pursue Shaanxi General Zuo Guangxian, but he didn't expect Zhang Shun to go into battle himself.

Now that he has just taken refuge with him and is in a place of suspicion, does he dare to let him out like this?
"Time is urgent, I can't take care of much!" Zhang Shun smiled and shook his head.

Do you think Zhang Shun doesn't want to tie Hong Chengchou to his side?

This is not a matter of rushing things. There is really no way to rush to this place.

Originally, Zhang Shun planned to rush to Shaanxi first by himself, lead the soldiers to open up the situation, and then mobilize civil officials from Henan to govern and defend.

It's just that he didn't expect the situation to change suddenly, and he couldn't take care of much, so he had to release Hong Chengchou from his hands for the time being, and let him take charge of part of the work in Huazhou City.

This Hong Chengchou is somewhat different from that Lu Xiangsheng.

Lu Xiangsheng has strong martial arts skills, and he has Yang Lukai, the head shepherd, and Gu Xian, his servant, as his wings. He himself has experience in recruiting and training soldiers, so it is easy to pull out a team.

However, Hong Chengchou successively served as the governor of Shaanxi, the governor of Yansui, the governor of the three sides of Shaanxi, and the governor of the five provinces. Most of his men and horses were selected from the frontier armies and guards in Shaanxi. He did not recruit or train troops. He has the experience of building an army, so Zhang Shun is not afraid of him suddenly turning his face and causing huge troubles for himself.

When Hong Chengchou also took the order to go, Gao Guiying couldn't help but walked up worriedly, and asked softly: "Daddy, how is your foot, is it still okay?"

"Do you think this looks like a well-being?" Zhang Shun smiled wryly, and lifted his foot to let her look at the worn-out boots on his feet.

This pair of boots was made by Li Sanniang herself, and it took a total of half a month of work.

The bottom is a thousand-layer bottom, and the surface is cotton, which fits very well and is comfortable to wear.

When Zhang Shun first got this pair of boots, he often wore them to other wives and got a lot of supercilious glances. .
In the end, I never thought that Li Sanniang had worked so hard for half a month, but Zhang Shun had worn her to death in only ten days, which really made people laugh.

Now if other wives saw what happened to his boots, they would laugh their teeth out, right?
Gao Guiying hurriedly supported him to sit on a tree stump to rest, and couldn't help but regretted: "Oh, these cloth boots are not as durable as leather boots!"

Zhang Shun suspected that she was implicating Li Sanniang, but there was no evidence.

After all, Gao Guiying often wears herdsman-style leather boots when she is out of the neighborhood. It is possible to compare the pros and cons of the two types of boots by chance.

Not long after, the soldiers brought up the hot water.Gao Guiying knelt down and helped Zhang Shun take off the boots.

"Oh, it stinks!" As soon as Gao Guiying took it off, she couldn't help fanning the wind with one hand, and threw the boots aside with the other.

After walking seventy miles in one breath, can it not be smelly?

To be honest, in Zhang Shun's two lifetimes combined, he has never achieved the feat of walking seventy miles in one breath, and he is quite proud when he thinks about it.

Smiling and shaking his head, Zhang Shun took off his socks and put his feet in the water.

Immediately, his face became brighter. It turned out that he had worn out several places on the soles of his feet unknowingly during his walk.

It hurt after getting wet, and he realized the wound on his foot.

At this time Gao Guiying also squatted over, and was going to wait for him to wash his feet.

"I'll do it myself, you can go get it ironed too!" Although Zhang Shun was in a high position and lazy, he was still a little unaccustomed to being served by others.

"What nonsense is Daddy talking about? I'm a woman, why wash my feet?" Gao Guiying gave him a blank look, grabbed the soles of his feet, and rubbed them for him.

Not to mention, after walking for a day, it's quite comfortable to be massaged by her like this.

"Go find a remote place to wash!" Zhang Shun shook his head, not thinking too much of himself.

Of course, Gao Guiying is not a woman who does not wash her feet, but according to the customs of this era, feet are a very private part for women and cannot be seen by men other than her husband.

Although Zhang Shun didn't understand the inexplicable breaking of the rules, he still respected Gao Guiying's habits.

Gao Guiying smiled and said nothing. Anyway, she rode a horse all the way and didn't walk much, so it didn't matter.

"Is Wang Jinyi here?" Zhang Shun asked suddenly while closing his eyes and enjoying Gao Guiying's massage.

"Pass my order, select a group of clever people, and return to Luoyang City as soon as possible, and order Lu Weiqi to bring Xu Quan, Zhang Luxuan, Dong Duxing, Li Jiqi, and the 'three talents of Sigu' Wen Tingxuan, Zhang Shifan, and Shizuo to come to see me .”

Zhang Shun named eight people in one breath, all of them are quite talented people.

It seems that he has a big plan this time, and he will not give up until he achieves his goal!
