Chapter 248: Why is it Qin Chuan again?
Jingshi, Forbidden City, Hongde Palace.
Zhu Youzhen opened a book, glanced at it a few times, and then threw it on the ground, and then took out a copy from the thick book on the imperial case, opened it, glanced at it a few times, and threw it on the ground again.
These notes are all impeachment of Qin Chuan for plundering the people, massacring the Fan family and the Zhou family in Jiexiu Zhangyuan Village, and asking him to order Qin Chuan to be arrested and executed by Ling Chi.
In the past few months, Zhu Youzhen has been numb when he looks at the recital about Qin Chuan.
Those ministers, officials, are either elm heads or harboring selfish intentions, if it weren't for the national crisis, Zhu Youzhen really wanted to cut off their heads.
Qin Chuan should be killed, but now is not the time.
Moreover, impeaching him with such fanfare is hard to guarantee that the guy will not rebel again.
What's more, that guy just broke 9,000 thieves in Jiexiu Mianshan, captured the leader Liu Guoneng alive, and beheaded more than 1,400 levels, including another leader, Li Yangchun.
That's a big deal.
If Qin Chuan is killed at this time, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of the rest of the soldiers.
Therefore, Qin Chuan can't be killed for the time being.
As for the Fan family in Jiexiu Zhangyuan Village...... Kill too!
Zhu Youzhen is not a fool, after this incident, he already knows that many ministers of the DPRK and China and many generals of Jin Xuanda have an unclear relationship with Zhangjiakou Fort.
He just didn't know whether it was the Fan family who collaborated with the enemy, and whether many ministers in the DPRK and China and many generals in Shanxi participated in the collaboration.
He also wanted to find out about this matter, and called several ministers to the Hongde Hall alone, but every time he opened his mouth, those ministers hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouting that this move was absolutely impossible, on the grounds that the Hetao area had fallen into the hands of Dongnu, and Xuanda and Da should strengthen their defenses and stabilize the morale of the army.
If the matter of Xuanda's collaboration with the enemy is suddenly investigated at this time, I am afraid that it will chill the hearts of the soldiers and make Xuanda's military and political turmoil, lest Dongnu take advantage of the situation to enter.
Zhu Youzhen felt that there was some truth when he heard it, so he could only give up.
But now, Qin Chuan's bold and bold people who went to slaughter the Fan family again have lifted up this matter again.
This damn thing, when the thieves and thieves are quelled, he will definitely be cut by a thousand knives and executed by Ling Chi!
The more Zhu Youzhen looked at it, the more annoyed he became, so he simply shook his hand, swept all the music to the ground, and then leaned back on the chair and rubbed his eyebrows.
At this time, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and I saw Cao Huachun running in with a letter in his hand and excited.
"Emperor, great victory, Shanxi great victory."
"Oh?"
Zhu stood up with a tentane: "Quick, bring the good news." ”
"Yes."
Cao Huachun hurriedly handed over his hands and said excitedly: "With less than 1,500 troops, Qinchuan in Shanxi Province intercepted the 30,000 army of Zhang Bingzhong, the head of the leader, in the area of Zezhou Duohuo Township, and won consecutive battles. ”
"Yansui general Cao Wenzhao rushed to the starry night, ordered the tent to attack Cao Bianjiao and divided 1,000 troops to guard the Zhongjialing in the north of the fire township, and when the thieves abandoned the camp overnight and fled, the Qinchuan soldiers killed and killed the thieves, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao set up ambushes and interceptions on various main roads, and the three joined forces to break the thief army, beheading more than 6,700 levels in total, and capturing more than 1,200 people."
"This is the good news sent by Liu Zhongyun, the superintendent of Cao Wen's camp, on a fast horse for 800 miles, and in a few days, the head of the thief will be escorted to the Beijing division and hung on the door to show the public."
Hearing Cao Huachun's words, the expression on Zhu Youzhen's face froze.
Why is it Qin Chuan again?
……
Qin Chuan, who killed a thousand knives, has now arrived in Wenshui County, from Wenshui to Luliang Mountain, and then two hundred miles of mountain road to Lou Fu.
Along the way, he took in more than 2,000 hungry people, plus the captives, and brought back a total of 10,000 people.
However, the newly admitted hungry people were not allowed to get close to the Guan Emperor's army and the prisoners, otherwise they would be killed, and they could only follow behind dozens of paces. Beautiful
Moreover, both captives and hungry people had to go down to the Fen River to bathe every day, and those who did not take a bath or change their clothes had nothing to eat.
The food is still enough, because all the people in the prefectures and counties along the way who do not open the door for him to go in to buy food, all put the tiger squat cannon outside the other party's city, and the officials of Zhaocheng, Lingshi and Jiexiu have a stiff neck, not only do they not open the door, but they also insult Qin Chuan at the head of the city, and then eat several rounds of shelling, and they are beaten and screamed.
The officials of Hongdong, Huozhou and Xiaoyi were more honest, and obediently opened the city gates and asked Qinchuan to send people in to buy grain.
Among them, the magistrate of Hongdong and several large gentry families also scraped together two hundred stones of grain, as well as five fat pigs and ten sheep to send out of the city to the Qinchuan labor army.
Because Qin Chuan and Luo Daniu and many other old bandits in Jiuji Mountain are the Hongdong people's clan, some people have been bandits in Jiuji Mountain since they were children, and their relatives and clansmen are gone, but some people's ancestral houses and relatives are still there.
Qin Chuan belongs to the former, and like many people, his predecessor was picked up by the old village owner and raised as a thief when he was a child, and he didn't know where his home was.
The local government in Hongdong didn't want to offend him, after all, no one knew if he would soar in the future, and they didn't want to get too close to him, so they gathered food and sent him out.
Qin Chuan deliberately stayed in Hongdong for two days, and asked the brothers who still had clansmen to bring some money and food back to their hometown, and were willing to take all the clan fellow villagers who went to Lou Fu away, and if they were unwilling, they would leave some money and food to do their own thing.
After passing through Hongdong, everything went well, and the army went north along the Fen River, and when they arrived in Xiaoyi County, Xu Dingchen's men also caught up, bringing a letter and an order.
The letter was written in Xu Dingchen's personal name, congratulating Qin Chuan on making another great contribution, and he would truthfully repay Qin Chuan.
Xu Dingchen wanted to transfer him to support the recovery of Po Ximu in Leping County, and to eliminate the thieves who appeared in Pingding Prefecture and Meng County, saying that he would order the prefectures and counties along the way to prepare grain and grass for Qinchuan.
After reading the order, Qin Chuan secretly said in his heart I believe you are a ghost, Cao Wenzhao's request for grain and grass in Meng County was bombarded by the local government, and it is strange that he can prepare grain and grass for himself.
But Qin Chuan did not refuse, and only replied with a letter, saying that his men and horses had suffered heavy losses in the border pass mountain, and he would go back to Loufu to rest for a few days, replenish the troops, prepare grain and grass, and go to Leping in a few days.
When he arrived in Wenshui County, Wang Jizong sent a thousand Guan Emperor troops to respond, and when he arrived at the intersection of the East and West Hulu River, he also set up two hundred cauldrons in advance.
All the captives and hungry people must be thoroughly washed and cleaned here, and their bodies must be sprinkled with lime, and their clothes, bedding, and luggage must all be boiled in boiling water, and those who are willing to shave their heads will be dried up and dried one day, and those who will not shave their heads will be dried and one will be shaved and one will be shaved out.
After the cleanup, he was quarantined in the East and West Huluchuan for seven days.
Because it had already taken a few days on the way back, and no plague was found in the team on the way, the quarantine time could have been slightly shorter.
Qin Chuan and Emperor Guan's army had been quarantined since they bought the last grain in Xiaoyi, and they had not come into contact with any outsiders, including captives and hungry people, all of whom were separated by at least five paces.
After the food is cooked, it is placed on the ground, and the captives and hungry people themselves line up to receive it, and the Guan Emperor's army is a few steps away, holding bows and arrows to maintain order, and those who cut in line or grab food shoot a few arrows with bows and arrows without arrows.
With food on one side and bows and arrows on the other, the captives and hungry people were honest.
For the sake of insurance, after Qin Chuan returned to Lou Fu with Emperor Guan's army, he was still camped outside the town for three days.
Wang Jizong, Wen Cheng and others led many officials, big and small, with wine and meat from afar to greet them, Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu also rushed back, and the two groups of people talked several steps away.
Wen Suxin also came, veiled, and looked at Qin Chuan not far away.
Qin Chuan shouted at her: "Just three days." ”
It means that after three days, you can put on your wedding dress again and be a bride.
As soon as Wen Suxin heard his words, she could faintly see her blushing through the veil.
Those big eyes were watery, as if they would shout.
Qin Chuan only left Wang Jizong, Wen Cheng, Li Dingliang, Liu Youzhu and others to report on their work, and the rest, including Wen Suxin, rushed back.
He plans to rest in Lou Fu for a few days, and in a few days he will bring a new batch of Guan Di troops to the expedition, the original group of people will stay in Jingle and Lan County, Luo Daniu and Ren Liang will also stay, this time he will take Li Dingliang and Liu Youzhu to go on the expedition, accompanied by their trapped camp and Wudang camp.
The purpose of doing this is nothing more than training troops, training long-distance marches, training field battle formations, attacking and defending, pursuit, and so on.
This time, according to Xu Dingchen's order, he will go directly to recover Leping and suppress bandits in Pingding Prefecture and Mengxian County.
By the end of September, he would be back.
Because at that time, there was an autumn harvest, and after the autumn harvest, the weather would turn cold, and it would snow at any time, and he would spend the winter in the old nest.
