A few days later, Huguang Zaoyang, on the banks of the Baishui River.

It is the common knowledge of every military general to camp according to the water, and this is because there is a water source that is convenient for everything, and the meals of officers and soldiers and the drinking water of horses can be obtained from local materials.

Now in the various branches of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the fixed number of people, the criteria for judging the strength and weakness mainly look at two points, one is the number of the main general's family, and the other is the number of cavalry.

Jiading is a private armed force supported by military generals with personal money, and ordinary battles are basically led by brave Jiading, and those in the back scream to go up to fight soy sauce.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang founded the guard system, which has been in line for more than 300 years, and has long been corrupt, and the guards are unbearable to fight, and most of them are just cannon fodder.

In the middle of Jiajing, a group of military generals headed by Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang started the recruitment system.

Originally, Emperor Jiajing did not agree, but the guards were really useless, and they fought a small widow, and hundreds of people were chased and beaten by dozens of people.

Qi Jiguang's Qi family army only needs 3,000 people to defeat several times the Japanese army, and then when he guards Jizhou, it simply becomes a killing machine, and he directly ordered me to enter the customs and become a minister.

During the same period, Li Chengliang's Liaodong Iron Cavalry was even more vertical and horizontal in the land of Liaodong.

This Li Chengliang's private army even became a well-known strong army in Chinese history in later generations, and in the decades before and after, it punched the Jurchen guards, kicked the Mongol tribes, and fought wherever they did not obey.

At that time, the grandfather of the old ancestor Nuer Hachi was too arrogant, and Li Chengliang directly sent troops to raze the entire walled city to the ground, but his biggest mistake was to adopt a little kid who didn't seem to be anything at all.

Li Chengliang gave this little kid a nice name - "Nuer Hachi".

Nu'er is to show that he is a slave, and Hachi is a long list of abbreviations such as Tunguska boar skin, but just like Huang Taiji's real name Huang Taiji, this name is also beautified by the Tartars as Nurhachi.

This is not over, the Donglin Party who surrendered to the Tatar Qing Dynasty also made up a heroic story of the slave Hachi who killed Li Chengliang because he was too handsome, which is simply not ashamed.

Nowadays, among most of the generals, the majority are more than a dozen family members, and there are dozens or hundreds of them who are already very powerful.

At that time, Li Chengliang had 8,000 families at his peak, and this number was enough to make many people frightened just by hearing it.

Among the various Ming armies under the command of Yang Sichang, He Renlong can be regarded as the most brave fighter, Zuo Liangyu has many soldiers, but there are also a lot of careful thoughts.

After being stationed on the bank of the Baishui River for many days, he still didn't hear Zuo Liangyu come to rendezvous, but waited for two unexpected news.

The first one came was Yang Sichang's letter of apology.

Why apologize, this has to start from the beginning.

At the beginning, He Renlong had been doing his best for the imperial court, but all kinds of credits were not counted at all, but the small mistakes of sesame mung beans were grasped very well.

The means of the imperial court made He Renlong not able to obey.

It's a little mistake, I will immediately dismiss you, let you wear the crime and make meritorious service, and then throw your head and spill your blood, and pin your head to the belt of your trousers, and finally defeat the rogue, and finally change the official reinstatement.

You'll ask then what, and then it's gone!

Then it is to repeat this process, catch a small mistake and dismiss you, and then return your original official body to you after you have made meritorious service, after the first few years of hard work, He Renlong cleverly found that there is no future for the imperial court to fight.

So he's also learned, I won't fight, can I learn from Zuo Liangyu?

In June last year, He Renlong sealed the order of Hong Chengchou, who was then the governor of the three sides, to assist in the suppression of the Kou, but it seemed that nothing had changed, and he went obediently.

The performance at the beginning was also good, as always, "He Crazy", which belongs to the kind of person who beats Liukou as his own son wherever he goes.

However, when it was time to close the encirclement and close the net, He Renlong suddenly stopped doing it and went back to Shaanxi directly with his troops......

This wave was a miserable pit for the officers and soldiers who assisted in the suppression, and when the rogues saw that He was crazy, they immediately counterattacked, but the officers and troops were defeated.

Therefore, the generals who died in the battle did not know that there were two local governors who were severely pit by He Renlong, and were dismissed and imprisoned by the angry Emperor Chongzhen.

This time the five provinces jointly suppressed, He Renlong originally didn't plan to come out, anyway, according to the urine nature of the imperial court, he couldn't get any credit.

Yang Sichang also understood that He Renlong's appeal was only for meritorious service, so he did what he liked, promising to ask the emperor for merit after the war and named him a general of the thief.

Hearing this, He Renlong's heart was moved, and he was named a marquis, this is the lifelong desire of every aspiring man!

So here he comes.

Compared with whether He Renlong is satisfied or not, the court is still more afraid of Zuo Liangyu's betrayal, although there is Yang Sichang's arguments, but this thief general Da Yin is still in the hands of Zuo Liangyu's father and son.

He Renlong is completely planning to quit this time, and has been doing it in vain, who will do it?

"Zuo Liangyu, they have been following behind their buttocks, and every battle is the first of my He madmen to rush in, and they are full of blood every time they kill, and now it's good!" He Renlong, who couldn't be angry no matter how he thought about it, kicked the table over, and roared angrily:

"Damn, pass on my general order to go back to Shaanxi!"

The adjutant general stepped forward and whispered: "Dashuai, you dissipate your anger, there is another copy here." ”

He Renlong picked up the Tang newspaper angrily, but he couldn't take his eyes off it, "Zhu Youhua, the king of Nanyang, what kind of character is this?" ”

"I've never heard of it before, it seems, it seems to be from the Fu Wang's Mansion." The adjutant general said again.

"Fuwang Mansion, it seems to be a good place!" He Renlong narrowed his eyes, and suddenly waved his hand: "In this way, I won't go to Shaanxi, go to Henan!" ”

"Zuo Dashuai and we met in Zaoyang, and left suddenly, Zuo Dashuai and the superintendent are not easy to explain." The lieutenant was a little hesitant.

"Whatever he does!" He Renlong sneered again and again: "He Yang Sichang promised me to Zuo Liangyu, isn't that counting on Zuo Liangyu to kill thieves for him?" ”

"That's okay, let him go and suppress it, I see if his Zuojia army can be stronger than Lao Tzu's He Ying!"

Zhu Youhua, the king of Nanyang, actually repelled Li Zicheng for him, and he has been in the Central Plains for more than ten years, and he has never seen a royal clan with this ability.

......

He Renlong has a fiery temper, and what he has decided to do has always been to do what he says.

In the past, he still had some respect for the imperial court, but after more than ten years of suppressing the imperial court, he didn't get any fart benefits, and he was still full of bags, so he no longer had any respect.

On Huguang's side, He Ying has already begun to pull out the camp and go north.

Besides, Zhu Youhua is preparing for the feudal domain these days.

As soon as I heard that I was going out to establish a palace, all kinds of gentry and landlords came, and the sycophants were shocking, a small wine for three days, a big banquet for five days, and a small day was called a comfortable one, and I didn't know that I had become the focus of the world by accident.

There was a big quarrel in the court because of him, and Emperor Chongzhen even killed two Donglin officials with a rod for this.

Fu Zonglong was released from prison, and he didn't know that the siege of Luoyang had been lifted, and he was rushing to help.

As for He Renlong, he knew that he would not be able to benefit from encircling and suppressing Zhang Xianzhong, and planned to come to Luoyang to see if he could pick up some cheapness.

Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was defeated by Zhu Youhua, the king of Nanyang, and this incident not only caused a sensation in the imperial court and the Taqing side, but also made people completely unbelievable on the side of Liukou.

Li Zicheng is the king of Chuang, and now he is the largest and strongest of the rebel armies, but what is he Zhu Youhua, where did he suddenly jump out?

Zhu Youhua is very aggrieved, what am I doing, I just want to live!

This Li Zicheng is also a dead brain, you can't beat Luoyang, why don't you change places to fight, or wait for a while to fight again, don't you have it.

If you leave, Lao Tzu won't chase you, and I'm still on this bar.
