please make me king

Chapter 938

"Tang Taizong Li Jing Questions and Answers Volume": (The method of using soldiers) Thousands of chapters and thousands of sentences, it doesn't mean that they are not intended for others!

At the beginning, the imperial court ordered the governors to organize and train troops to prepare for the rebel army, and Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation and governor of Fengyang, was not able to stay out of the matter.

He also selected and trained [-] elite soldiers from Shandong spearmen and government servants in Kaifeng, compiled them into an army, and now led them to Guide Mansion.

Guide Mansion is governed in Shangqiu County, which is later Shangqiu City.

The government is based on the upper reaches of the Jianghuai River, and it is the strength of Bianluo.It is connected to Bianliang in the west and Xuzhou in the east, and it is the exterior and interior of each other.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Yellow River had not been diverted, and its downstream direction was roughly Kaifeng, Guide, Xuzhou, Pizhou and Huai'an.

The deployment plan of Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transport and governor of Fengyang, is to guard Runing with [-] troops from Sui Chen's general soldier Luo Ju, Xuzhou's deputy general soldier Ma Yu, and eunuch Lu Jiude to prevent the "shun thieves" from conquering Chongfan again.

I personally led the main force to Kaifeng through Xuzhou and Guide, and then used Kaifeng as a basis to advance in Sishui and Dengfeng to force the "shun thief" Heluo to be rooted.

"How is Xiong Dameng's situation now?" Zhu Dadian asked the staff next to him while looking at the simple map in front of him.

The word Dameng is exactly the word of Huguang governor Xiong Wencan.

"Reporting to the army, according to the information we received yesterday, Xiong Fu's army has successively conquered the three key areas of Xinye, Tangxian and Dengzhou, and is preparing to advance both land and water to encircle the 'ten evil generals' in Nanyang. I am afraid there will be good news in the near future. come."

"It's too fast, it's still too fast! This Xiong Dameng has some tricks, but I'm afraid he may not have any good intentions!" Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, frowned.

Originally, according to the plan, Xiong Wencan, the governor of Huguang, should take the lead in launching the attack, forcing the righteous brother "Ten Evil Generals" of the "Shun thief" to mobilize the main force of the thief.

When the main force of the thieves went south, Zhu Dadian, the governor of Henan and Fengyang, took Sishui and Dengfeng directly.

Now the governor of Huguang, Xiong Wencan, is making rapid progress. He is worried that if he fails to mobilize the main force of the "shun thief", he will feel uncomfortable at that time.

"After the Kaifeng Mansion, Wanwu will send me more 'night not accept', carefully investigate and understand, we must not bump into the main force of the Shun thief!" Zhu Dadian thought for a moment, and repeatedly urged the staff.

"Yes, Junmen!" The staff member quickly responded, taking out a pen and paper to write down carefully.

But at this moment, another person suddenly pushed the door open and came in, gave a simple salute and said, "Junmen, it's not a big deal!"

"Why panic?" Zhu Dadian said displeased.

This guy is his newly promoted guerrilla general Zhang Shiyi, everything else is fine.

It's just that this person was originally a reckless warrior who didn't know etiquette, which made Zhu Dadian quite displeased.

"Fu Jun, news just came that the army of 'Shun Bandits' rushed out of Fengyang City, dispatched spies to try to cooperate with the inside and outside, and attacked the city in one fell swoop."

"Fortunately, the soldiers fought to the death and repelled it from Kankan. It's just...just that the thief claimed that the army will arrive soon, so let the guards surrender quickly!"

"Nonsense, nonsense!" Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, couldn't help being furious when he heard the words, "The thief is so far away from Fengyang, how can he rush to the city of Fengyang?"

"Tell them to investigate carefully for our military sect. Is it because Ying and Huo's thieves have come to act as demons again?"

The so-called "Yinghuo Thieves" refers to the rebels entrenched in the vicinity of Yingshan County and Huoshan County in the Dabie Mountains.

At the end of last year, the Yinghuo Yijun led by "Sweeping King" Zhang Yichuan took advantage of the unpreparedness of the officers and soldiers and captured Fengyang. As a result, Yang Yipeng, the original water transportation censor and Fengyang governor, was beheaded and abandoned the city, and Wu Zhenying, the inspector of Fengyang, was sent to the border.

Zhu Dadian himself was not as big as Yang Yipeng, and he was even more shocked and frightened.

"Junmen!" Guerrilla Zhang Shiyi, who considered himself Zhu Dadian's confidant, couldn't help approaching and reminded in a low voice, "The bandits of Yinghuo are headed by the 'Sweeping King', and the rest are not to be feared."

"At the beginning of the year, due to the urgent pursuit of the officers and soldiers, the 'Sweeping Floor King' couldn't stay, and fled westward with the 'Tie Thief' all the way!"

Although Zhang Shiyi didn't say anything later, Zhu Dadian also knew what he meant.

Today's Yinghuo thieves have neither the strength nor the courage to take Fengyang, this time I am afraid there are no two other than the 'Shun thief'.

"Damn it!" Zhu Dadian blushed angrily, almost grabbed the blueprint in front of him and tore it to pieces.

Seizing Sishui, Dengfeng, and besieging Heluo is a strategy that the imperial court has been brewing for several months, and Fengyang Mansion is the central capital of Ming Dynasty. Where there is a loss, it is not something that Zhu Dadian can take care of!

This is the evil result of Fu Zonglong, the governor of Henan, who "died in battle". There is no one in Henan to preside over the plan to deal with the rebels, so he has to trouble Zhu Dadian, who is thousands of miles away, to go out. I was caught off guard.

The guerrilla general Zhang Shiyi saw that Zhu Dadian was in trouble, looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Fengyang has made mistakes, Yang Yipeng has learned from the past; when the army is defeated and the bandits are gone, Chen Qiyu's teacher in the future!"

Zhu Dadian was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately reacted.

That's right, if there is something wrong with Fengyang, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death no matter what; if I'm like Chen Qiyu, if I don't do my best to suppress the bandits, I will at most lose my identity and go to prison, but I can save my life.

Although Zhu Dadian didn't want to lose even half of his power and official position, he had no choice but to take the shot, and now he couldn't help it.

Thinking of this, Zhu Dadian, Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, couldn't help but ordered: "There are difficulties in China, and there is nothing to lose; the thieves in Heluo must be punished!"

"My army's family will lead the standard battalion and other soldiers and horses back to rescue Fengyang. Commander Zuo Liangyu, the commander-in-chief of Changping, will supervise the generals on behalf of our army's family to punish the thieves in Henan. There must be no mistakes!"

The benefactor of Zuo Liangyu, the general officer in Changping, is Hou Xun, the Minister of the Household Department, who is from Guide Mansion. It just so happens that Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, also came here, so he came to visit with him and was in the city.

Zuo Liangyu couldn't help being surprised and delighted when he heard the order, and hurriedly kowtowed and thanked Zhu Dadian three times and nine times.

It's not that Zuo Liangyu doesn't know that it is very risky to command officers and soldiers to attack the "Shun Bandit", especially since he has fought against the "Tie Chief" many times, he knows that he is insidious and cunning, and is very difficult to deal with.

It's just that it is too tempting to obtain the power of the governor-general as a general. At least as far as he knows, Cao Wenzhao is the only one who has won this honor in modern times.

And Zhu Dadian, governor of Water Transport and governor of Fengyang, made this decision, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

He can not only pass on the high-risk matter of "suppressing Shun thieves", but also sell Hou Xun, the current Minister of the Household Department, which is really killing two birds with one stone.

After Zhu Dadian finished all the arrangements, he couldn't wait to lead his subordinate battalion across Bozhou and headed straight for Fengyang Mansion.

The Art of War says: control people instead of controlling people.

How could Zhu Dadian expect that this time, he was mobilized by the "Shun thief" just because of his own selfishness, so that there was a huge loophole in the cooperation between the officers and soldiers, which eventually led to an inadvertent ending in which everything was lost.
