Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 178 Going North ([-])

In September of the sixth year of Huaxing, the world was still in chaos.In the original history, Jiang Xing was killed by the general Yang Zhenwei in rebellion last month.In addition to Jiang Xing, his elder brother Jiang Lin and younger brother Jiang Youguang died together.

But now with the intervention of Li Taiping from Shaanxi, Wu Sangui's Ta-Han army was blocked by himself, allowing Wang Yongqiang to avoid the fate of destruction.The powerful Wang Yongqiang broke into Shanxi at the request of Li Taiping, and joined forces with the rebels to attack Taiyuan.This forced the Tartars who besieged Datong to divide their troops and go south to rescue Taiyuan.

And Li Taiping continued to encroach on Shanxi. Now he not only holds Puzhou Prefecture, Jiangzhou, and Jiezhou in Shanxi, but also annexed the rebel forces in Pingyang Prefecture and Zezhou Prefecture with his army northward.

After regaining strength with the regiment headquarters, Li Taiping changed the military system and changed the banner, and he was ready to march northward to Taiyuan.It effectively restrained the power of the Tartars and supported the offensive of Wang Yongqiang and Qinzhou Rebels.

Because of Li Taiping's efforts, the original history is being modified little by little.Like dominoes, one card falling down caused a chain effect.

Although the Tartars also achieved success in Shanxi, they successively pacified Liu Qian, defeated the reinforcements from Zhumakou and Deshengbao outside the Great Wall, swept through Datong Mansion and Shuoping Mansion, and isolated Datong Mansion City from the rebels outside.However, the Tatars were unable to win Datong because of the reduction in the number of troops besieging the city.

On the Shandong side, the Yuyuan Army and the Zhujiao Army, under Sun Zhi's central support, stirred up the boiling situation in Shandong intensified.Wanting to repeat the prosperity of the teaching army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, millions of teaching troops roared in, and the red scarves covered the sky and covered the earth.Now, since the Tartars entered the customs, the stars have withered, and there will be no more characters like Chahan Timur.

At this time, Chen Chen from the first battalion also contacted the regiment headquarters, and learned about the current situation of the second and fourth battalions from the regiment headquarters.After learning that the Second Battalion was only a few hundred miles away from him, and that he had created a great career in Shandong, Chen Chen was moved.

Now Chen Chen settled down in Huoqiu County and set up the battalion headquarters in Sanliuji.If you want to send troops, you have to go all the way north to Bozhou, so that you can join forces with the second battalion.

Zhi Ningfeng saw her husband sitting alone and frowning, so she asked.

"Husband, do you have any troubles? You might as well tell this concubine."

It's just that Chen Chen looked at Zhi Ningfeng and opened his mouth but didn't speak. He felt that he shouldn't put the burden on his wife.Now that the first battalion is in a corner, if they don't stand up, they will be pulled further and further away by the second and fourth battalions.Chen Chen felt even more uncomfortable when he thought that the two comrades who used to have the same status as him had achieved such high achievements today.

Jealousy, extremely strong jealousy.While being jealous, it is also stimulating the fighting spirit in my heart.

Seeing that Chen Chen didn't answer her own words, Zhi Ningfeng looked a little sad, and she said in a low tone.

"Husband, do you dislike my concubine and have been married for several months and there is no movement yet?

Before getting married, Zhi Ningfeng was a heroic and heroic woman, but after getting married, she developed into a gentle and virtuous wife. Recently, she repeatedly talked about why she was not pregnant yet.

Seeing what Zhi Ningfeng said, Chen Chen felt dizzy, so he could only comfort him.

"Ning Feng, we are still young, this matter is not in a hurry, there will always be children."

Every time he heard Chen Chen say that he was still young, Zhi Ningfeng would just chuckle.He was already in his teens, and Chen Chen was one year older than him.Ordinary people get married in the [-]th or [-]th year, and give birth in the [-]th or [-]th year. I am already in my twenties, so I am still young?
After being interrupted by Chen Chen, Zhi Ningfeng was not so sad.

At this time, Chen Chen took the opportunity to say: "I was thinking about the next development direction of the First Battalion. I learned from the headquarters a few days ago that the Second Battalion is located in the north of Caozhou Mansion in Shandong Province. Caozhou Mansion is not far from Yingzhou Mansion. We are now In the south of Yingzhou Mansion, it is only a few hundred miles away from Caozhou Mansion. I want to take the troops northward and open up the connection with the Second Battalion. It’s just that our power is still relatively small, so it may not be a big deal to go northward rashly.”

Knowing that her husband was worried about this matter, Zhi Ningfeng said with a smile.

"Husband, since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have great perseverance and courage to overcome obstacles and go forward, and those who are timid will not be safe even if they stay at home."

At this moment, after talking about the military, Zhi Ningfeng seemed to have returned to the moment when he was stationed in the mountains with hundreds of troops.At that time, there were many wars in the world, and the mountains were not peaceful.Many people outside the mountains fled to the deep mountains to escape the war, and battles were not uncommon.Zhi Ningfeng lives in crisis every moment.As a woman, she commanded her deceased father's old army, with coveted eyes from all around, and the shortage of food in the mountains was a worry for her livelihood.It was a tough time, and the only way out was to move forward.Kill the subordinates who speak wildly about him, defeat the invasion from other villages, and lead the troops down the mountain to plunder supplies.In this way, everything came to an end, until she waited for Chen Chen.

As if infected by his wife's courage, Chen Chen also felt pride in his heart.The situation in Caozhou Mansion has affected Yingzhou Mansion which is not far away. Although the two are not in the same province, and they are even separated by Guide Mansion in Henan Province, Chen Chen can still feel the turmoil of the Tartars in Yingzhou Mansion.Sun Zhi sent troops to invade Guide Mansion frequently, and now Guide Mansion is in chaos.

On August 24, the Tazi court newly established the governor of Shandong and Henan in Zhili, and appointed Zhang Cunren as the governor.Originally, Ma Guozhu, the governor of Jiangxi, Jiangxi and Henan, was no longer in charge of Henan.

When Henan was no longer under the supervision of Ma Guozhu, the forces from Jiangnan receded, and Sun Zhi turned around and entered Henan again.Guide Mansion fell into turmoil, which in turn affected Yingzhou Mansion.

Encouraged by his wife Zhi Ningfeng, Chen Chen decided to give it a go.He issued an order to gather at the battalion headquarters to the garrisons in Huhuji, Yejiaji, Yingkeji, Matou, and East and West Zhengyang.

When the messengers ran in all directions with Chen Chen's orders, a commotion broke out in Huoqiu and Shouzhou counties.

Those stationed in the town are brigade-level units, the squadron is stationed in the village closer to the town, and the remote villages are stationed in small teams.Of course, these teams are not full of staff, they just have a staff, and most of them are nearly half short.In addition to these regular troops, there are also various armed organizations such as the Agricultural Guard Youth Corps.This gathering also brought together the Farm Guards and Youth Corps as the reserve and transport troops of the combat troops.

When dozens or hundreds of people came out of the village and gathered in the town, and then hundreds of thousands of people left the town to head for Sanliuji's battalion headquarters, the impact was huge.

The Tazi government in Huoqiu County and Shouzhou County received reports that bandits were gathering or might attack the city, which frightened the magistrates of the two counties.Those religious bandits in the north gathered crowds to make troubles and raised their flags against each other, which is likely to repeat the events of the end of the Yuan Dynasty.There are also religious people in the two counties. The magistrates of the two counties feared that these people would attack the county seat, so they asked the big households in the city to provide money, food and manpower.

Five days later, nearly ten thousand troops gathered in Sanliuji.
