The white porridge and pickled mustard is enough, why am I wearing a royal robe?

Chapter 160 Chen Qiyu’s strategy

"Let the news go out and say that we have received a letter from the General Administration to capture the traitors and will do our best to encircle and suppress the Kitchen King, this month."

Chen Qiyu looked at his deputy Lu Wenshan. You must know that he came here not only to destroy the Kitchen King, but also to eliminate other bandits.

It’s just that Kitchen King is the biggest target.

"Oh? Governor, why don't you use all your strength to surround and suppress the Kitchen King?"

Lu Wenshan didn't understand that the Kitchen King was the biggest bandit. If he wiped out the Kitchen King and knocked down the mountain to frighten the tiger, all the bandits in Shaanxi would probably flee.

"You don't understand, rogues. The most difficult thing to deal with is a rogue. If we try our best to wipe out the Kitchen King, even if it succeeds, those rogues will just be like rabbits, more cunning and cautious. They will flee when the wind blows, and walk away after hearing the news. The land will be harmed and the people will not be able to live in peace."

Chen Qiyu patiently explained that he said it was for the people, but in fact it was also for his own future. Following Yang He's mistakes, he must do this matter perfectly.

"Soldiers are deceitful. We pretended to destroy the Kitchen King, but actually secretly sent troops to the north. After wiping out the northward bandits, the Kitchen King must have thought he was cheated, and he would definitely send troops out of anger. We can also play the biggest role by waiting for the enemy."

"Thank you Governor for your advice."

Lu Wenshan raised his hands and said with emotion, he is indeed a scholar, his brain is easy to use, if he had not thought of these methods.

His mind was filled with fighting and killing, and he never thought of the plan of attacking in the east and in the west.

Word spread quickly.

After Chen Qiyu entered Shaanxi, he began to entangle the troops and horses in various prefectures. After the call for surrender was issued, he led his troops north along Dingbian, while Lu Wenshan led his troops diagonally northward towards Jingbian, leaving some troops behind. In Ganquan.

"The Stove King was still too arrogant. He actually captured the city, one government and four counties. Now the court sent troops to encircle and suppress them again, and even directly issued a notice to surrender the thieves." All the bandits in northern Shaanxi who received the news of the notice to surrender the thieves felt risky in their hearts. Came up with this idea.

After all, during this period of time, the Kitchen King was unparalleled in northern Shaanxi.

He defeated the three governors and captured the city of Yan'an. Almost all the territory on the east side of Yan'an fell into the hands of the Kitchen King.

Now that the traitor warning is issued, all soldiers and horses along the way must cooperate and use all their energy and strength to exterminate the rogue bandits.

If they had gotten this information and it was aimed at the rogue bandits, they would have been running away in all directions, taking the rogue bandits' rogue character to the extreme.

At the moment, they can only gloat over the Stove King's misfortune.

Diamond, mountain harrier, black evil god, tiger among men, five kings of hell, flying horses, large and small bandits even started to celebrate.

They were on tenterhooks when the original Trilateral Governors were here. After all, the imperial court sent people to deal with them.

Now that the governors of the three sides who were mainly responsible for recruiting people were transferred away, and a new one came, they couldn't sleep even more. As long as they thought about it, they knew that the one who came this time was definitely not a good person.

Who knows, their target is the Kitchen King.

In fact, those with a little foresight can know that if the Stove King disappears, they will be next. However, these peasant rebels were born to forage in the soil. How could they think of so much after they became thieves.

Just have a bite to eat and enjoy it in time.

The imperial troops and horses were so powerful that it was difficult for Liu Zhenhua not to notice them.

"They actually got entangled with soldiers from all walks of life and came directly to attack me."

Liu Zhenhua guessed that the people sent by the imperial court would attack him very hard this time, but he did not expect that this person would be so decisive. Not long after the news of coming to Shaanxi came out, he issued a proclamation against thieves and then sent out troops to conquer.

However, the other party came at the right time. It would take some time to send troops from Qingyang and get all the troops to Yan'an and other places.

Liu Zhenhua's Maxim machine gun is already ready to go.

However, what Liu Zhenhua was thinking about was whether to change the machine gun when the time came, or to practice it in advance.

After all, Liu Zhenhua has only touched the Maxim machine gun in some games. However, according to the previous logic, weapons and other weapons have different ways of use. Liu Zhenhua is not afraid that he will not be able to use them when the changes come out.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided that when the enemy attacked the city, that would be the time for him to show off his skills.

"hey-hey."

Liu Zhenhua laughed out loud.

The cheapest machine gun in the mall is the MG08 Maxim heavy machine gun. The first actual combat application of this Maxim heavy machine gun series was in the 1893 battle between the British army in Rhodesia, South and Central Africa, and the local Metabili-Sulus people. in the war.

In that battle, a British unit of more than 50 people relied on four Maxim heavy machine guns to repel dozens of charges from more than 4 Metabilis, killing more than 5000 people.

Fifty beat more than five thousand, and more than three thousand were killed directly.

However, what made this thing famous was during World War I. Germany directly used this standard Maxim machine gun and killed 60,000 British soldiers in one day, which directly caused the world to start assembling Maxim machine guns.

The Qing Dynasty also showed interest in this extremely lethal weapon and wanted to imitate it in 1888. However, the original Maxim heavy machine gun used black powder lead bullets. In addition, the royal family was not interested in this weapon. There was not much interest in it, so the Qing Dynasty only copied more than units and then gave up.

"Organize the army!"

Liu Zhenhua waved his hand, and it was not him who defended the city. It was not Maxim's style.

The soldiers and horses in Yan'an are tangled, and the militiamen are very excited. These days, many people have been promoted to the heavenly soldiers, which they are envious of.

"King Stove, I heard that the imperial court has many troops this time. Is it appropriate for us to just bring some troops?"

Wang Wu looked at the four thousand militiamen in front of him. Forget it if they were four thousand heavenly soldiers, they were still militiamen, militiamen who had just been trained recently.

Wang Wu is not afraid of death. This time the Kitchen King will follow. If he loses to the imperial army, the Kitchen King will be in danger.

"Haha, that's enough," Liu Zhenhua smiled and looked at these militiamen who were ready to go. If it weren't for the purpose of letting more people see Maxim, Liu Zhenhua even felt that he could have brought only 1,800 militiamen.

Just when Liu Zhenhua was organizing his army and preparing to set off.

A fast horse comes from a distance.

Zhang Heizi turned over and got off his horse. He knelt on the ground and raised his hands and said, "King Stove, the latest news is that the imperial soldiers and horses did not come to Yan'an, but accelerated northward!"

What Liu Zhenhua pays most attention to now is the intelligence network.

He doesn't know much about military tactics, but what he knows most is the importance of intelligence.

"Oh? Going north?"

Liu Zhenhua was a little surprised.

"Going north, are they going to attack Qingjian?"

Wang Wu said from the side.

"No, it shouldn't be. With such a big movement from the imperial court, they will not bypass Yan'an and attack Qingjian." Liu Zhenhua shook his head. The imperial court has many troops. If the target is really him or a place under his banner, No need to go around.

Surrounding one section and four sections is the best choice.

"He should want to clear out the rogue bandits in the north."

Liu Zhenhua understood the other party's actions.     "Good at making a sound in the east and attacking in the west."

Liu Zhenhua sighed with emotion and released the news to deal with him. When he was about to arrive, he accelerated northward and caught the bandits in northern Shaanxi by surprise.

"No, this way the bandits in the north will still have room to react."

Liu Zhenhua suddenly frowned.

"There's still news."

Zhang Heizi said hurriedly.

"Next time, finish it in one sentence."

Liu Zhenhua thought that people who spoke in short sentences could only appear on TV, but he didn’t expect that they also existed in the real world.

"The imperial court still has a group of soldiers and horses. I didn't get any news before. Later, when I went west to explore, I found a large army heading north."

"That's right."

Liu Zhenhua had a look of emotion on his face. It seemed that the governors from the three sides who came this time were smarter than Yang He and his like.

Of course, if Yang He had handed over all military command to Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou would not have been defeated so miserably.

The imperial soldiers and horses sent out two lines, one in the light and the other in the dark. The two lines ran in parallel. The bright line came towards Yan'an on the bright side, and the dark line went straight to Yulin and other places.

When the hidden line is ready to be exposed, the bright line is instantly mobilized to support the hidden line, a two-pronged approach.

According to what Liu Zhenhua already knew about the northern forces, no rogue bandit should be able to withstand such a move.

"Who is it? Is there such a leading figure in history?"

Liu Zhenhua was very confused. According to the butterfly effect, he had been here for so long and so many things had changed.

"Kitchen King, do we want to send troops?"

Wang Wu asked from the side.

"No," Liu Zhenhua shook his head, "Let them fight."

If Liu Zhenhua is afraid of the imperial troops, the best way is to help the bandits and resist the imperial troops together.

But Liu Zhenhua is not afraid. The current situation is that he is no longer afraid of soldiers and horses from any aspect. The prerequisite is that he does not push the Ming Dynasty into a panic and mobilize all the soldiers and horses to deal with him, or join forces with Hou Jin. In addition to these circumstances , no one can stop Liu Zhenhua's advancement, all he needs is to encroach on the surrounding territory step by step.

During this period, the Ming Dynasty's territory was eaten away bit by bit by boiling frogs in warm water.

Liu Zhenhua's reputation system, the acquisition of reputation is currently growing exponentially, and will explode at a certain stage, giving him almost endless reputation.

One day in the future, Liu Zhenhua will be able to command his troops without fearing the world, even if Ming and Liao join forces with the two countries.

"Keep training and be ready."

It was obvious that the opponent would take action against him soon, but such a cunning enemy also gave Liu Zhenhua a foresight. Faced with such an enemy, he could not be careless.

"Continue to monitor those two groups of troops and tell me any news as soon as possible."

Although messages in ancient times were delayed, messages within the same province could only be delivered within a few days. The most critical reason was that Liu Zhenhua was willing to ride on the scouts' horses.

News is often delivered in a hurry over eight hundred miles, and it doesn't matter even if the horse is killed.

"Yes."

Zhang Heizi nodded and then got on his horse. The life of being a scout was indeed hard. He had to travel all the time. Moreover, the most important thing was that he couldn't eat the heavenly soldier's meal.

However, the Kitchen King treated him very well. Regardless of the treatment, Zhang Heizi wanted to do things for the Kitchen King from the bottom of his heart. After all, he was just a small farmer digging in the soil. Thanks to the Kitchen King's appreciation, he Just got to this point.

Most people in ancient times, especially farmers, were simple. Although they didn't understand many big principles, they always did a good job in repaying kindness with kindness.

Zhuantian Sentinel and Kaishan Ax occupy the area north of Ansai. They have 1,500 rebels under their command. They are considered domineering in this generation.

They occupied a mountain pass, and because of the dangerous terrain, they were not worried even if they were surrounded by people like the Kitchen King.

Because of the news they had received in recent days, the imperial court was going to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress the Kitchen King. Zuotian Shao and Kaishan Ax were very excited. They had been having fun in recent days, and they went down the mountain more often.

After all, having fun also requires a lot of resources.

But this time, after they came down from the mountain, they never had the chance to go up because they were cut off by the imperial troops.

Zhuantianshao is a man who looks very short and honest, and the head of the mountain ax looks like an ax handle, so no wonder it is called a mountain ax.

Both of them looked frightened. The officers and soldiers of the imperial court this time were different from those in the past. In the past, when suppressing bandits, they often only needed to leave some gold and silver treasures, and the other party would be happy to let them go.

But this time, even though they lost all their possessions, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court were still shrinking the encirclement.

"Second brother, why is this court so crazy? Aren't they trying to encircle and suppress the Kitchen King? Why are you trying to get in trouble with us?"

Zhuan Tianshao looked at the gradually shrinking encirclement and was almost unable to hold himself tight. He was no longer the ruthless man who decisively committed suicide. The long-term drinking and debauchery had hollowed out his body and sapped his fighting spirit.

Now that he was in danger, he would just panic and run away hastily.

"Brother, I don't know, what should we do?"

The same is true for mountain axes.

The two brothers usually indulged in drinking and sex, but now they were surrounded and had no fighting spirit.

"Charge with me!"

Chen Qiyu is not a weak scholar, he can mount a horse and fight.

The morale of the surrounding officers and soldiers soared, and they immediately closed the circle and quickly killed these people.

After a battle, they did not lose a single person and broke a weapon. Chen Qiyu did not organize his army here. After burning the territory of the two thieves leaders, Chen Qiyu continued to lead his troops northward. This strategy of his was important. It was so fast that it couldn't stop at all, until it swept across the entire northern Shaanxi.

The last thing to deal with is the hard nut to crack, the Kitchen King.

"Chen Qiyu, the rogue bandits in Shaanxi are in trouble. The root cause of the rebellion is poor youth, famine, and the instigation and temptation of the chief evildoers, so that the two prefectures and three roads have become robbers' dens."

On the way, Chen Qiyu wrote a memorial about what he had done these days, including his strategies. He knew that Emperor Chongzhen might be extremely angry now and needed some reassurance.

"We have defeated two bandit leaders without losing a single soldier. I will continue to go north until the bandits in northern Shaanxi are slaughtered. Finally, use a strategy to capture the Kitchen King. It may take more than a month. I hope your majesty Give me some time."
