Chapter 521: The Sin is Great

He Huchen didn't have time to gather men and horses in a hurry, he only had time to lead more than 1,000 cavalry to gallop to Lingzhou to defend it.

Seeing that the intention of attacking Lingzhou failed, the Tartars immediately changed the route and went in the direction of the Shajing Station, He Huchen led the Lingzhou cavalry and the men and horses he brought to gather three thousand horses to ride out of the city to follow the pursuit, and when he was unfortunately killed by the Tartars, he returned to the horse pistol.

In the face of nearly ten times the number of Tartars, He Huchen was powerless to return to the sky even if he was brave, and finally he led the soldiers to raise the banner of the chief soldier and charge personally, and let his son He Zan lead half of the family to break through from the opposite direction.

In this battle, only 50 cavalry under He Zan were able to escape, and 3,000 elite border cavalry under the chief soldier He Huchen were martyred.

The situation has taken a turn for the worse, and if no action is taken to redeploy, the entire northwest frontier will be finished, Hong Chengchou is the governor of the three sides, as the name suggests, he is the primary responsible person for the Tatar Kou Border, so he had to temporarily give up the suppression of the Kou and lead the troops to meet the battle.

Fortunately, Chen Qiyu, the governor of Yansui, was quite capable, and when Hong Chengchou sent many people to the north, he still commanded a small number of men and horses to beat the Shaanxi Liukou and flee to Shanxi.

At this time, the imperial court used Ma Shilong, the former martial arts who returned to his hometown, as the chief military officer of Ningxia Town, Ma Shilong was a native of Ningxia, and the Ma family belonged to the existence of the uncrowned king in the local area.

The local people are fierce, and the attitude of the group against the Tartars is resolute, and the Tartars are not here to grab the territory, they have grabbed food and property, population, and livestock, and found that the Ming Dynasty is prepared, and it should not stay for long.

The final result must have been that Hong Chengchou pounced, wrote a good news in a grand manner, and the imperial court repelled tens of thousands of Tartar prisoners.

Of course, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army should focus on the defense of the land of Gyeonggi, and at this time, the Jingying people led by Fang Zhenghua were killing tens of thousands of rogues who had entered Xishan, and they had no time to take care of anything else.

The "Red Banner Army" led by Huang Han made some reputations, and at this time it became fragrant and sweet, and the inland officials and squires who originally ignored this road began to chase after them, and this time they rushed to Pingshun County to send grain and grass to ask for the relief of the crisis situation in the counties under the jurisdiction of Guangping Mansion.

The officials and squires were really anxious, they swore that as long as the "Red Banner Army" was dispatched, the military supply would be guaranteed in quality and quantity, and they only wanted Dongping Hou to move faster, and they were broken by the state capital and county, and they were guilty of great crimes!

Huang Han came to show the heroic posture of the "Red Flag Army" to the people in the mainland of the Ming Dynasty in order to kill thieves and make people, and now that he has experience, the rogues who lack food and clothing are actually not short of gold and silver treasures, but they cannot be used for trading.

They plundered 60,000 or 70,000 rogues in Pingshun County, sent away 30,000 people, seized precious metals worth no less than 300,000 taels of snowflake silver, and obtained several thousand cattle, horses, mules and donkeys, as well as a lot of silk and cloth, which were worth a lot of money.

All in all, there are too many benefits of winning a war, and the benefits of fighting a rogue are more than winning a war between two armies, how can a regular army carry a large amount of gold and silver treasures in the army?

The king of the mountain also has a few nests to hide the goods, so that the cunning rabbit three holes, the rogue is in danger of the situation due to the flow of the case, and the gold and silver treasures in his hands are not hidden, so he has to carry them with him.

Therefore, if you kill a group of rogues, maybe more than half of the precious metals owned by the counties that have been plundered by the rogues will become the development funds of the "Red Flag Army", and it is too easy to make such money, because Chongzhen's rogues thirteen years ago are simply vulnerable.

Now the officials and squires of the nearby state capital have united to ask the Marquis of Dongping to attack the Liukou to save the people from hanging upside down, promising and putting into practice to supply grain and grass to the "Red Banner Army", and the pressure on Huang Han to transfer grain has been reduced too much.

The battle with the Liukou is not worth mentioning, it is not an equal contest at all, with the combat effectiveness of the "Red Banner Army" as easy as destroying the withering and decaying, Huang Han agreed to send troops and immediately issued an order to send the whole army to the north early the next morning.

Xu Mingyang didn't expect that Dongpinghou really didn't ask for food and salary when he said it, and even the people of Pingshun County who needed to be resettled outside the city who were broken by the rogue could get soup soup relief.

He also saw with his own eyes the "Red Banner Army" that promised to starve to death and not rob the common people, these soldiers were different, everyone was tall and energetic, and never stood in front of the common people.

Of course, the magistrate has insight, and he finally understands why the "Red Banner Army" has been able to win many battles, and of course such a disciplined team will not be defeated in a hundred battles.

The good news has been issued, and Xu Mingyang saw with his own eyes the text about his four days and four nights of holding the county seat and killing 3,000 rogues.

This scholar is a bit dead-eyed, and nine times out of ten everyone who is willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness.

Huang Han was so kind that Xu Zhixian was at a loss, he was embarrassed to see any "Red Banner Army" generals, and he always felt that he owed something to others.

Seeing the two daughters who came back together in the inner courtyard of the county government, Xu Mingyang had an idea in his heart.

Originally, Xu Mingyang's family education was very strict, and his daughter belonged to a good girl who did not leave the door, but since her life was hanging by a thread, his wife took the initiative to take her daughter and domestic servants to the city wall to participate in the treatment of the wounded, and the two daughters always like to go out.

After experiencing life and death, Xu Mingyang has long looked down on feudal etiquette, and his daughter does not interfere when she goes out.

The daughter who trained by himself is knowledgeable, the two sisters look like flowers and jade, Xu Mingyang regards it as a pearl in his palm, so he has always been with him and has not stayed in his hometown in Jiangxi, and because he is not high, he has not said that he has a mother-in-law's family.

In fact, there is a big reason why Xu Mingyang is reluctant to marry a daughter early.

In the evening, after Xu Mingyang confided with his wife that he wanted to send a daughter to Dongping Hou as a concubine, his wife suddenly cried silently.

In this era, there is no guarantee for concubines, they are about equal to commodities, the eldest woman can be the master to sell them, and the master can use them to send them in, of course Mrs. Xu is not happy to give her daughter away.

Xu Mingyang persuaded: "The Marquis of Dongping is a young talent, capable of literature and martial arts, and the wife of the family is the daughter of the old Zheng of the Imperial Court, and the flat wife also has a fate, that is, the Qin general you have seen, she is a prominent descendant of the martyrs."

Our daughter should not have a bad time as a concubine for Dongping Hou, and she will not be troubled by the well-informed eldest woman. General Qin, the wife of Ping, is a heroic among women, and she will not embarrass our daughter. ”

Mrs. Xu gradually stopped her sadness and said: "These days, Yan'er and Ru'er go to General Qin almost every day to see those female soldiers, and it is said that General Qin likes them and teaches them to let go of their guns.

The high-ranking and powerful Dongping Marquis only has a wife, a flat wife and a concubine, and he is also a self-disciplined person. Since the master is in charge, the concubine listens to you, but I don't know if the master is going to marry Yan'er or Ru'er? ”

Xu Mingyang sighed and said: "The palms of my hands and the backs of my hands are full of meat, I am in a dilemma and I don't know who is more suitable to marry, mother and daughter are connected, it is best for you to come forward and ask, if both of them resolutely disagree to be concubines." ”
