Please ask me to be the emperor

Regardless of how the Qin and Ming countries reacted, Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, suffered a major defeat on the banks of the Qinshui River and had to flee all the way to Wuzhi County.

However, the coach Hong Chengchou and the left coach Li Xin were unreasonable and followed closely, pursuing them all the way to the gate of Wuzhi County.

It was already dark at that time, and the rebels were exhausted after marching for more than a hundred miles, so they had no choice but to set up camp for repairs.

Na Zhu Dadian stood on the city and saw the bright lights of the rebel camp. He felt deeply worried, so he sneaked across Qinshui River at night and went north to practice martial arts.

It turns out that at this time, the Qinshui River turned southward one mile north of Wuzhi County, which happened to cut off the retreat routes of the Ming army defending Wuzhi in both directions east and north.

To the west is the fierce rebel army, and to the south is the rolling Yellow River. If Wuzhi County is besieged by the rebels again, the five or six thousand defeated troops under Zhu Dadian will definitely be unable to escape.

Zhu Dadian, the Governor of Water Transport and Governor of Fengyang, was also quite decisive. Seeing the rebels setting up camp outside the city, he ordered the soldiers in the city to eat something simple and get ready to go.

By the fourth hour of the Chou hour, the rebels were tired and had already gone to bed.

Zhu Dadian didn't even send anyone to investigate or harass him. He just took Mei and Ma Lekou and quietly crossed Qinshui River and fled back to Xiuwu City.

As soon as Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation, arrived in Xiuwu City, he met the impatient Prince Zheng Zhu Zaishi.

"Zhu Junmen, you are back!" Zhu Zaixi said anxiously, "News just came from Huojia that thieves raided Xinxiang County."

"Now that the city of Xinxiang has been captured and the magistrate is dead, our army's retreat is cut off!"

Although Zhu Zaixi felt sorry for his son Zhu Yizhong, compared to the threats to his family and life, he obviously felt more sorry for himself.

It turns out that in the past few days, Gao Yifeng led a battalion of troops to hide and go out at night. Now he finally bypassed the Ming army and penetrated into place, seizing the almost unprepared Xinxiang City in one fell swoop.

The back route was seized. Not to mention Zhu Dadian, the governor of water transportation, even Zhu Zaixi, who did not understand the art of war at all, saw the danger.

"Wei Hui Mansion can't be saved!" When Zhu Dadian heard the news, he felt like he was struck by lightning, and he immediately realized the danger.

"Come here, come with me to Qinghua Town and inform the Superintendent of this military situation!"

"My subordinates take orders!" Following Zhu Dadian's order, some of his staff already responded.

Zhu Dadian then ordered: "Instruct the three armies to take a rest and prepare to set off!"

Although it is unwise to betray your teammates or your boss, it is nothing compared to your own wealth and life.

"Report~ As soon as Yang Sichang, Secretary of the Ministry of War and Right Supervisor, arrived outside the city with his support and suppression commander Zu Dale, he asked the military gate to greet him!" Just when Zhu Dadian felt guilty, he never thought about Yang Sichang and others dozens of miles away. People actually came over.

"Okay, that's very good. I will welcome him now!" Zhu Dadian couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, so he took Prince Zheng and Zhu Zaixi to the west gate of Xiuwu County to meet Yang Sichang.

The two of them couldn't help but sigh when they met again. At first, they thought they had a chance of survival if they separated, but now it seems that the result is no different.

"How are the losses? Can we still fight?" Yang Sichang had already heard the news of Zhu Dadian's defeat from the fleeing defeated soldiers, and he couldn't help but ask quickly.

"Don't mention it, the losses are heavy!" Zhu Dadian smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying quickly.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Please ask the supervisor to evacuate to Huixian with me as soon as possible!"

Yang Sichang was stunned when he heard this, and his expression suddenly changed: "What happened?"

No one is stupid. It stands to reason that even though Zhu Dadian suffered such a huge defeat, he would not be in a state of panic, and there must be a reason for this.

Sure enough, Yang Sichang heard Zhu Dadian explain again: "The thieves have already occupied Xinxiang. I'm afraid I will die without a burial place!"

"No, we must not let thieves occupy this place!" Yang Sichang couldn't help shouting after hearing this.

"But now we have a wolf in front of us and a tiger behind us. We are full of ambition but not strong enough!" Zhu Dadian couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this.

Yang Sichang didn't know what Zhu Dadian was thinking, so he couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile, and then retreated to the northwest with Zhu Dadian and others without any trouble.

In fact, although Yang Sichang, who was an official and minister of the Ministry of War, may not be as good as Zhu Dadian on the battlefield, his vision is better than him.

It turns out that Xinxiang is not only the distribution center of "Wei Cao", but also has Guangying warehouse here.

If it is taken over by "thieves", not only will people lose a lot of food and grass in vain, and the "guard and water transportation" will be cut off, but it is also more likely that thieves will advance along the river, attack the famous people and defeat Linqing, and once again cut off the north-south water transportation.

Yes, that's how funny it is.

Although Zhang Shun had tried his best to avoid cutting off the water transportation from the north to the south in the Ming Dynasty, the Wei River water transportation from Huixian County was originally part of the original Grand Canal - Yongji Canal, which was called "Yuhe" in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Only during the Yongle period of the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, ordered Song Li, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to dredge the Huitong River again, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was opened to navigation again, did the original "wei-cao" decline.

However, the excellent waterways of the "Wei Cao" are still the channels for Henan's tax collection and transportation.

The rebels captured this place, not only obtaining a large amount of food, but also threatening the Daming and Linqing along the river to the northeast. Yang Sichang could not help but be frightened.

Of course, Yang Sichang, Zhu Dadian and others did not know that Zhang Shun had no intention to cut off water transportation now, so as not to cause the collapse of Ming Beizhi and the entire Jiliao and Xuanda frontier armies.

The snipe and the clam are fighting over each other to get the fisherman's profit, but I won't take it!

At the same time that Yang Sichang and Zhu Dadian left Xiuwu County, left commander Li Xin's troops had also arrived near Xiuwu.

Although coach Hong Chengchou had tens of thousands of elite troops under his command, due to their large numbers and slow movements, Yang Sichang, Zhu Dadian and others who were bent on escaping escaped.

"Straight bitch!" When Hong Chengchou received the news that Yang Sichang and Zhu Dadian had retreated and Li Xin occupied Xiuwu Kongcheng, he couldn't help but cursed secretly.

Only then did Hong Chengchou have to admit that it was a mistake for him to leave Huaiqing Fucheng rashly.

According to the plan proposed by Zhang Shun, after occupying Huaiqing Fucheng, Tianjingguan and Wen County, the rebels should defend the Fucheng until the Ming army was exhausted.

Wait until the Ming army has lost its spirit, then send out a large army to break it, and then let Wang Ding's cavalry battalion take the opportunity to cover up the attack, and then Yang Sichang, Zhu Dadian and others can be completely defeated.

Although the rebel army now defeated the Ming army on the banks of the Qinshui River, they were unable to expand their results due to insufficient cavalry strength.

However, Hong Chengchou himself was also very capable, and his annoyed mood disappeared in a flash, and he couldn't help but order: "With Li Xin, the left commander, we can go east to seize Huojia, and join hands with Gao Yigong who occupies Xinxiang."

"Follow Wei Zhiyou to the east, seize Yuanwu County, connect Xinxiang to the north, and threaten Zhongmou to the south."

"The others will follow my army to march eastward, expel Yang Sichang and Zhu Dadian, and occupy Weihui!"
