Zhao Sandao fell.

This guy knows that Qin Chuan is different from other Ming officials, very different.

Although he didn't understand whether Qin Chuan wanted to rebel or become a big official, he knew that following Qin Chuan was indispensable for him and his brothers to have a good life.

So, Li Dingliang and Feng Yilong led a thousand Guan Emperor troops, carrying more than 20 artillery pieces before they reached Wufeng Mountain, this guy went down the mountain with money and surrendered.

Compared with the several cottages that Qin Chuan had beaten before, Zhao Sandao's money was pitiful, only less than 300 stone of grain, 800 taels of silver, 160 taels of gold, some gold and silver jewelry, and a lot of all kinds of money.

This is because Zhao Sandao's territory is very embarrassing, the west and south are Qinchuan's territory, he doesn't dare to provoke Qinchuan, the north is the Great Wall and Ningwu Pass, a dead end, only Xinzhou in the east can be grabbed, but Xinzhou City is impossible for him to fight, and most of the people outside the city have run to be homeless, and the rest of the villages all have defensive facilities such as walls and arrow towers, which are basically difficult to gnaw.

The most important thing is that his men and horses have been defeated by Qin Chuan, and the newly brought five hundred hungry people have not eaten less, and they are useless when they go out to rob grain.

Zhao Sandao had to take the silver taels in the village to buy grain, and then sit and eat the mountain.

Eating and eating, Qin Chuan called.

After much thought, he finally decided to surrender.

Counting the family members and the women who were robbed, there were more than 900 people in Wufeng Mountain Dazhai, and all of them were brought back to Lou Fu.

Qin Chuan asked people to carefully screen them, sent more than 100 of them to Montenegro for mining and transformation, and selected 200 people to come out, scattered and distributed to each battalion, so that the generals of each battalion could train these recruits, and the rest were scattered and placed in various villages.

Zhao Sandao's original name was Zhao Caiwang, the brain, force, personality charm, etc. are relatively modest, neither good nor bad, the name of the three knives was given by others, because he made a two-foot-six-inch long ghost head knife, made of fine iron, weighing twenty-two pounds, when the first three knives were extremely domineering, so people gave the nickname Zhao Sandao.

Qin Chuan gave him a general, that is, the position of deputy battalion officer, leading 300 soldiers, under the command of Liu Youzhu, first staying in Lou Fu for a month, literacy, learning military rules and laws, learning military drills, and learning the art of war there after going to Lancheng.

In addition to the old academy in Lancheng and Jingle City, Qinchuan each opened a new officer academy, which was used to teach officers, officials, officials, etc., as well as the Guan Emperor Army stationed in various places, all of which had lecturers, in addition to literacy, but also to teach arithmetic and science, and local officers also took turns to return to Lou Fu to lecture on martial arts for further study.

The so-called centennial plan, education-oriented, Qin Chuan attaches great importance to education, when his territory gradually expands, he needs a large number of literate and advanced knowledge people to help him govern the place.

As the director of the Department of Science and Education, Song Zhiting has no time to play with Danqing ink, and is busy visiting literati and scholars in Jingle and Lanxian counties, adding two courses in arithmetic and science to their academy.

If those literati and scholars were unwilling, after the team of lecturers grew, they would naturally open new schools in those two county towns, specifically for the common people, and would not charge tuition, only books.

Qin Chuan also asked Song Zhiting to set up education institutes in those two places, which were in charge of education, and there were also grants, but if the children of poor families wanted to go to school, as long as they applied to the education institute, and after verifying the family situation, the education institute could pay the book fee on their behalf.

……

On the 14th of June, preparations for the expedition were almost complete.

That night, Qin Chuan asked Wen Suxin to wear a red wedding dress and be a groom for another night.

Wen Suxin was red-faced and red-eared for half a night, and then lay in Qin Chuan's arms and talked for half a night, but before dawn, he got up with dark circles under his eyes to make breakfast for Qin Chuan.

After dawn, Qin Chuan had breakfast, put on his official uniform under Wen Suxin's service, and after being tired for a while, he yawned and went out.

1,500 Guan Emperor's army and 500 pack horses were already lined up on the martial arts arena, Wang Jizong, Wen Cheng, Chen Zhan and others were all there, Li Dingliang, Liu Youzhu, Song Zhiting and others also rushed back, and the Guan Emperor Army and Lou Fu's people, who had no training tasks, also gathered around the martial arts arena.

Qin Chuan walked to the high platform in front of the martial arts field, said a few words, and then rode a carefully selected Lou Fu white horse, walked on the newly built avenue, and headed towards the east.

The 1,500 Guan Emperor troops in the martial arts arena also lined up on the avenue, holding high the flag of the "Qin" character general, and marched forward mightily.

This time, Qin Chuan brought Luo Daniu, Ren Liang, Zhao Wu, Liao Sangun, Lao Huang, Bobcat and Huang Liuxi, as well as Li Dingguo and more than a dozen other martial arts academies to accompany him.

Among the 1,500 troops, there were 100 red-clothed attendants, 400 tiger and leopard battalions, 400 dragon martial battalions, and 600 Xiandeng battalions.

Because most of the rogues were chasing after me, he didn't bring large artillery, only twenty tiger squat cannons, but the musketeers brought two hundred, in addition to one gun per person, he also brought twenty more flintlock guns, countless bullets and gunpowder, all scattered for the horses to carry.

Li Dingliang, Liu Youzhu, Luo Ba, Feng Yilong and others stayed everywhere, Li Dingliang was in charge of military affairs, and Wang Jizong decided on political affairs.

The crowd of people who saw them off kept being five miles away, and a large group of little children ran after them.

Wen Suxin and the two sisters of the Li family were veiled, accompanied by the Ning family and several other female dependents, standing on the mountain beam on the side of the road and watching Qin Chuan and Luo Daniu go away.

Qin Chuan turned around and smiled at Wen Suxin and waved his hand, while Luo Daniu looked at Li Anru and smirked.

Luo Da Niu said that he almost succeeded last night.

It's just a little bit worse.

His clothes were stripped off, and in the end, he was kicked by Li Anru on the root of his life, and he rolled on the ground in pain.

At that time, Li Anru was so frightened that his face turned white and he was at a loss on the side, and then Luo Daniu, a fool, said stupidly, "I'm fine", and then Li Anru put on his clothes and ran away.

After listening to Luo Da Niu's words, Qin Chuan said that with your brain, you deserve not to eat meat.

Ren Liang, Zhao Wu and the others on the side laughed, but Luo Da Niu rubbed his head and didn't understand.

……

Shanxi Dusi had already prepared grain and grass, but there were only 300 stone of grain, 300 stone of beans, and 60 carts of forage.

This fodder is only enough for 1,500 soldiers and horses to eat for 20 days, according to Du Yingtang, these are just needed on the road, and there is naturally a supply of grain and grass when you arrive in Lu'an.

Qin Chuan didn't bother to bargain, so he just accepted all the orders.

His 1,500 Guan Emperor troops brought ten days of dry food from Lou Fu in case of emergency, and if the grain and grass were eaten and no one had replenished them, he would have a reason to rob a few large households.

On the day when the grain and grass were received outside the city of Taiyuan, Zhu Minji, the king of Ninghua, and Zhu Xianxuan, the prince of the king of Jin, specially ran up to the city tower with a group of clan relatives and scolded Qin Chuan outside the city.

At first, Qin Chuan didn't bother to pay attention to them, and just sat outside the city calmly, waiting for the grain to be shipped out of the city.

But after a long time, he became impatient, so he simply asked Luo Da Niu to set off a cannon to scare and scare those hanging hairs.

Luo Da Niu had already nested a belly of fire, and personally carried a tiger squat cannon to run a hundred steps outside the city, set up the cannon, aimed, and put medicine.

At the head of the city, King Ninghua and King Shizi of Jin were not afraid of him at all, and they kept scolding after the cannons were set up.

Du Yingtang complained bitterly, and when he saw that Luo Da Niu seemed to be coming, he hurriedly ran to the city, begging the princes not to scold.

As a result, the group of princes even scolded him.

When he was scolding, there was a sudden "boom" outside the city, and a cannonball roared and smashed on the women's wall, smashing broken bricks and splashing in all directions.

Several unlucky clan members were hit by broken bricks and screamed in pain, and one of them was seriously injured and rolled on the ground.

Zhu Minji and the others were so frightened that they ran down the city tower with a crawl.

And then I didn't dare to scold.

Qin Chuan didn't pay attention to them, took the grain, and drove south, heading in the direction of Lu'an Mansion.

Along the way, Qin Chuan's 1,500 soldiers and horses did not let anyone approach, whether it was a hungry person or a messenger of the Ming army, at most they could only speak from a foot apart, the purpose was to prevent the plague.

Xu Dingchen was in Lu'an Mansion, and Liukou recently bounced back and forth in Lu'an, Zezhou, and Taihang Mountain in Shexian, Linxian, Huixian and other places in northern Henan.

In addition to Xu Dingchen, there are Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Shaanxi in Jiezhou, Ni Chong and Wang Pu, who led 7,000 Beijing camps in Anyang and Qixian in the east, Hu Dawei, He Renlong and others in the west, the Yellow River in the south, and Cao Wenzhao, Deng Xi, Zuo Liangyu and others in the Taihang Mountains.

Taihang Mountain is 600 miles from east to west, 800 miles from north to south, it is called the backbone of the world, the mountains in the junction of Shanxi and Henan are towering and continuous, the terrain is complicated, the Liukou is scurrying around in that area, the Ming army is surrounded on three sides but can not help them.
