Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 716
Gao Wushi received a message from Huang Zhiting on the 21st of the first month, telling him that Lang Son had been conquered, and asked him to consider whether to move the headquarters to Lang Son as appropriate.

At that time, Gao Yushi was still a little hesitant, not because he was afraid that Lang Son would be unsafe, but because he had no soldiers—he only had Gao Zhang’s [-] family members by his side, and he didn’t want to mobilize the officers and troops. dry and weak".

Gao Zhang was bitten by a chigger last time, and he recuperated for half a month before recovering from the poison, so he did not go on an expedition with Gao Yu, but stayed with Gao Yushi.He didn't think it mattered to go to Lang Son, because even from his point of view, he felt that it was impossible for Huang Zhiting to act disrespectfully towards Gao Yushi.

In fact, he doesn't need to say this, Gao Yushi himself knows it well, he just simply doesn't want a situation where the support is strong and the weak are weak.However, after two days of delay, Gao Wushi felt that he had to move forward again, because news came from Cen Ling that he had occupied Gaoping and defeated the Gaoping Mo army, and it was expected that Tonghua would be captured in three days.

According to Cen Ling's plan, after taking Tonghua, he would not immediately go south to take Taiyuan, but go southwest to take Xuanguang first.

It is understandable that this idea is highly pragmatic. This marching plan is equivalent to a right uppercut, squeezing the Mo army in the northwest to Taiyuan or even Shenglong.

That is to say, after Cen Ling considered squeezing the Mo army to Taiyuan or Shenglong, he and Huang Zhiting—even including Gao Yu—encircled the main force of the Mo army in the north, and then wiped out in one fell swoop.

He is very courageous and full of courage.But Gao Pragmatic likes it very much.

Now the Mo army in the north should not be the elite of the Mo army. It is a good plan to wipe out the Mo army and wait for the main force of the Mo army to come back from the south.Otherwise, the main force of the Mo army in the south has rushed back before the clearing of the north is complete. It's not that they can't beat it, but it must be more troublesome.

In particular, Gao Wushi has always been worried about turning Annan into a bad place full of rebels. After all, "General Lin Dengwan" is not a joke. Gao Wushi's head hurts when he saw such a name.

Only Lang Son had made a breakthrough before, and Gao Yushi could still stay in Siming Prefecture to wait and see the situation, but now that Gao Ping has also conquered it, there is nothing to say about moving the headquarters forward.

Taking 2000 family members with him, he joined Huang's first batch of [-] reinforcements, and Gao Wushi arrived at Lang Son via Zhennan Pass.

However, Huang Zhiting left at this time - when she sent the message to Gao Yushi, she had already led the army to attack Changqing Mansion (Lang Son belongs to Changqing Mansion).

Since all the troops of Changqing Mansion were completely lost in the Battle of Lang Son, Huang Zhiting's battle to capture Changqing was much smoother, to be exact... without a battle.Changqing's soldiers "transferred" to Jingbei Prefecture as early as after receiving the news that the Ming army was going south. Huang Zhiting took Changqing directly.

And Cen Ling's second battle report was also sent over. He said two things. One was that Tonghua had been successfully captured, and the other was that he had already learned the news that Xuanguang originally had an army of more than 2 on the way to Xuanguang. , but now he directly abandoned Xuanguang and diverted to Taiyuan.

Cen Ling suggested that after he captured Xuanguang, he would go east to Taiyuan after a day off, and asked Gao Yushi to order Huang Zhiting's troops to cooperate with the westward advance and besiege Taiyuan with him-he believed that if Taiyuan was captured, the north of Annan would have no resistance With the strength, at that time, they will be able to approach Shenglong City with the momentum of Mount Tai.

After thinking about it for less than half a stick of incense, Gao Yushi decided to continue going south and go directly to Changqing Mansion to meet Huang Zhiting.

The smooth development of the battle situation has exceeded his expectations. Judging from the current battle situation, except for the battle of Lang Son, the Annan Mo army showed its due tenacity, and the rest of the battles were all destructive. If he resisted, he would fail, that is, he would simply run away, without the courage to fight against it.

Although the highly pragmatic people are not on the front line, it is not clear whether the Mo army is too weak or the wolf soldiers are too strong, or it is just because Mo Chaonan recruited all the elite soldiers and strong generals, but in a word: now North Annan has It is impossible to stop the Cen Huang coalition forces.

If there is any resistance, it is only Taiyuan.

But if they want to fight Taiyuan, Gao Yushi has to go, otherwise, Huang Zhiting and Cen Ling have similar status, and the strength of troops in their hands seems to be different, so who will have the final say?
Gao Yushi didn't want the two armies that could have exerted [-]% of their combat power to fail in the battle, so now he can't wait any longer. He has to go directly to the front line to command in person - it may not be possible to command in person, But you must decide and order yourself.

On the 24th of the first lunar month, Gao Yushi arrived in Changqing.Huang Zhiting led the chieftains and generals from southern Guangxi to meet him out of the city.

When they arrived in the city, Huang Zhiting first reported the results of the battle. In the Battle of Lang Son, the East Route Army won a total of 420 and 430 ranks from the Annan Army, and captured 4000 and [-] people. It is estimated that [-] people escaped.

There are two main directions for his escape, one is to flee in the direction of Jingbei and Thang Long, and the other is to flee in the direction of Hailong Mansion in Anbang.In other words, flee all the way to the southwest and all the way to the southeast.

Gao Yushi came here with a reward of silver. Among them, the head was five taels of silver, a total of 17135 taels of silver; the captive had two taels of silver, a total of 10878 taels of silver.

At the same time, in view of the fact that the meritorious service of the various chieftains will not be rewarded by the imperial court, he also directly rewarded the silver, but he did not ask about the specific distribution of the reward, and only directly gave Huang Zhiting the reward of 2 taels of silver, and she would judge the merits. Assign and report to yourself for approval.

This is obviously to continue to improve Huang Zhiting's prestige, of course Huang Zhiting will not refuse, and none of the chieftains questioned this decision-the chieftains are not stupid, and now it is obvious that Gao Yantai trusts Miss Huang, who would Jump out and sing blackface?

Besides, looking at it now, it seems that there is still some unusual friendship between the two of them, thinking that the two of them used to travel thousands of miles alone... These chieftains in southern Guangxi originally followed the Siming Mansion. Now I still have to worry that Miss Huang will suddenly become Mrs. Chengtai at some point, so I can't afford to offend her.

After solving the problem of rewarding silver, Cen Ling's report on the battle situation came again. He said that his troops would set off to march eastward on February 23, and asked Huang Zhiting's troops to go west to join him as soon as they got the news and encircle Taiyuan.

Well, he didn't know that Gao Yushi had already arrived in Changqing.

Gao Wushi was not hypocritical. After asking Huang Zhiting what she meant, she also believed that it was feasible to encircle Taiyuan. Maybe once Taiyuan was lost, Shenglong might lose the confidence to resist.

So two thousand soldiers and horses were left to garrison the back road of Changqing Mansion, and the army continued to march towards Taiyuan.

Before arriving in Taiyuan, more unexpected news came. This time the news came from Gao Yu from Shenglong City. Gao Jiajiading sent by Gao Yu excitedly said to Gao Yushi: Welcoming Gao Tuanzuo into Shenglong City, and publicly announcing that the Great Tomorrow Soldier came here not to punish Mo Shi, but to help Mo Shi wipe out Li Nizheng's bandits!

Mo Maoqia even stated that "Annan's subordinate army" and himself will accept the direct command of the Guangxi patrol, and "earnly look forward to Gao Gong's visit to Thang Long to command the overall situation."

Gao Wushi was extremely astonished, and Huang Zhiting opened her beautiful eyes even more, as if suspecting that her ears were broken.

Mo Maoqia... has surrendered?

Huang Zhiting whispered in Gao Wushi's ear, "Guess what I thought of? Just remind you, it's an idiom."

"Uh..." Gao Wushi tentatively asked, "Liyang Yujin?"

Huang Zhiting was stunned for a moment, and complained: "What, I have never heard of this sentence."

Gao Wushi smiled and said, "Okay, what are you thinking of?"

Huang Zhiting said seriously: "Recognize the thief as your father!"

The smile on Gao Wushi's face suddenly froze, and he looked helplessly at Miss Huang who was giggling.
