Chapter Ninety-Two: Fleeing from the Wind

Xu Gao's whole family was imprisoned, which was also a quite sensational event in the capital, and the news in the capital changed in the blink of an eye, but all the officials and businessmen who had contact with Zhu Yiluan or Xu Gao were in danger, for fear that Zhu Yiluan's rebellion would involve themselves.

It is not the character of these people to sit back and wait to be killed, after many inquiries, Zhang Juzheng, a cabinet scholar in charge of this matter, surfaced, and for a time he became the hottest official in the court at the moment.

Don't mention it, in fact, for Zhu Yiluan, when the account book was stolen, he knew that Xu Gao was finished. Instead of self-pity for nothing, it is better to abandon Xu Gao's chess piece, so Zhu Yiluan did not arrange for people to rush to the capital to rescue Xu Gao at all, but focused on the Huguang war, and the military victory errand was the most reliable!

When the soldiers and horses from all over the country gathered in Changsha City, Zhu Yiluan, who was already grinding his fists and preparing to do a great job, personally commanded the troops into Guangdong, vowing to take the lead and quickly take Guangdong, the source of troops.

The army of 50,000 led three times the salary, but it was also arrogant and did not feel like a thief, and marched quickly along the way, and in a few days there were less than a hundred miles left from the junction.

Hearing the news, Shen Chongming, who was still sitting in Shaozhou and paying attention to the situation in Huguang, couldn't help laughing. "Hehehe, Zhu Yiluan's courage is not small, he automatically came to the door before the official entered Huguang, and he was really bold and didn't know whether he was alive or dead."

The generals of the Guangdong Metropolitan Division who gathered in Shaozhou City nodded one after another, and the boasting of Shen Chongming was naturally inevitable.

It's okay to listen to these sycophants properly to cultivate their sentiments, but seeing that the generals were boasting endlessly, Shen Chongming had no choice but to stretch out his hand to interrupt, get up and say with a straight face: "My lords, since Zhu Yiluan took the initiative to come to the door with his rebels, if we don't entertain him well, how can we be worthy of his intentions, let's talk about it, what good strategies do you have to destroy the enemy." ”

Unexpectedly, Shen Chongming would ask him for advice, and the generals were immediately dumbfounded when they heard this, looking at each other, not knowing how to respond. To tell the truth, although everyone is a military general in the imperial court, but in Guangdong, where birds don't, they haven't touched the blade for many years, and it's even more impossible to make a plan. Shen Chongming asked them at this time, it was really difficult for some strong people.

Shen Chongming had expected this ending, otherwise he would not have sent Brother Erdan to deal with the 50,000 rebels of unknown strength, and he would stay in Guangdong. The reason for this is because the soldiers and horses of Guangdong have not been in war for many years, and it is known to the world that leading such a team to march and fight.

"My lord, all the battles are up to you." Chen Qingping, the commander of the Guangdong Metropolitan Division, stood up and said cautiously, looking at his weak literary appearance, no matter how he looked, he only looked like a civil official rather than a military general.

He has this attitude, and the rest of the generals, who usually eat and wait for death, have no hope. Fortunately, he had expected this situation from the beginning, and he was not very angry.

"Well, since that's the case, then the official can only do one thing." Shen Chongming looked at everyone and said, the eyes of these guys clearly flashed with joy!

"Yes, it's up to the adults to decide." Chen Qingping expressed his attitude on behalf of everyone, it is still very good to be a puppet.

Shen Chongming nodded, and said to himself: "This time, Zhu Yiluan personally commanded the troops into Guangdong, and his intention was very obvious, he dared to be the first to take Guangdong to open the knife, and it was clear that the persimmon was picked up first and pinched. ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the generals present immediately turned extremely red. It's hard to hear, although everyone feels this way in their hearts, but when the enemy also thinks like this, how can they accept it psychologically, after all, they all carry a head on two shoulders, why do you want others to be soft persimmons?!

Ignoring everyone's ugly expressions, Shen Chongming continued: "So this time Zhu Yiluan must have the intention of underestimating the enemy, in the eyes of this official, this is our chance, what do you think?" ”

Everyone nodded one after another, and the sound of sycophants rose again, Lord Shen is so knowledgeable, he has penetrated the enemy so quickly.

Shen Chongming smiled again and again, as if he had been photographed by everyone in the clouds, "This point can be set as the time of the day, and Zhu Yiluan's troops entered Guangdong, which is on your territory, which can also be regarded as a geographical advantage." Now that the time and place are favorable, what do you say we are missing? ”

"Human!" One of the generals got up and said excitedly. The time and place are favorable, I know this sentence!

"Hehehe, yes, it's human!" The smile on Shen Chongming's face became more and more intense. "Since the time, place, and people are all on our side, this battle is not won, isn't it intolerable?"

After all, Chen Qingping is well-informed, and he feels more and more wrong when he hears this. If you want to talk about this important event of the military family, how can it be so easy to predict the victory or defeat, I am afraid that Lord Shen has something to say.

At this moment, Shen Chongming continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, do you have the confidence to win? ”

"Yes." The generals looked at each other, and they didn't even have some confidence to say this, if the battle could be won so easily, wouldn't everyone here have become famous generals?

"Do you have faith?" The smile on Shen Chongming's face suddenly disappeared, his eyebrows were raised, and his whole person became murderous!

"Yes!" The generals shouted in unison, and their complexions naturally appeared.

The corners of Shen Chongming's mouth twitched, and he nodded: "Okay." The rewards and punishments of this official are clear, and everyone present in this battle is rewarded for their merits and deeds, and they dare not guarantee that they are in the court, but it is not a problem to add officials to the knighthood. ”

Shen Chongming's words were sonorous and powerful, and the generals present were full of excitement, and they were promoted to knighthood, which is something that everyone dreams of.

"However, if it is because of someone who spoils the affairs of the court, then the official will not dare to guarantee the result." Shen Chongming laughed softly, with a harmless expression on his face, but he secretly hid the murderous intention.

The generals' hearts tightened, everyone knows a thing or two about Shen Chongming's personality, this kind of thing, this guy can really do it!

"Alright, now this official announces the battle plan." Not allowing everyone to think too much, Shen Chongming pointed to the topographic map and arranged it.

"Chen Dusi, immediately send orders to the front-line soldiers, when the rebels approach early tomorrow morning, give up the current garrison of the cities and retreat a hundred miles to the front line of Guishan and Shaoshi Mountain, and all the baggage materials can be lost, and it is necessary to make a rout and retreat." Shen Chongming commanded expressionlessly.

Everyone was collectively dumbfounded, retreating without taking the battle, and they had to make such a mess, which had too great an impact on morale.

"My lord, ...... do this" Chen Qingping's face was a little embarrassed, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Shen Chongming raising his hand.

"Needless to say, this matter is arranged freely by the official, and you can just act according to the order." Shen Chongming also has his own considerations for doing this. Although the cruel words were released, he was still not at ease with the combat strength of the soldiers and horses in Guangdong, and the impact of such a planned retreat on morale was much smaller than that of retreating in a panic after a defeat.

And doing this will definitely make Zhu Yiluan and the rebels even more arrogant, even if he is not an arrogant soldier at the moment, he can get used to him as an arrogant soldier.

In this retreat to the line of Guishan and Shaoshi Mountain, the advantages of geographical advantages can also be infinitely magnified, as long as they are well arranged, even a group of untrained mountain bandits can rely on these advantages to fight a big victory!

In this way, your morale will definitely be high, and the effect will be completely different when you use it again.

Shen Chongming's small abacus crackled, but few of the generals could pay attention to his intentions, and the person who thought he was smart also said that this famous Lord Shen of the capital planned to use the mountains to block the rebels, so as to deplete their morale.

Since he didn't let him say it, then everyone didn't bother to say it, such a safe approach is very in line with everyone's thoughts.

The generals retreated, but Shen Chongming was not idle, staring at the terrain map hanging on the wall and carefully deliberating on the tactics he had come up with in the past few days.

Shen Chongming was well arranged, and Zhu Yiluan, who led the troops into the territory of Guangdong, was also proud, and the Guangdong soldiers and horses retreated without a fight, and let themselves get the two important towns of Yizhang and Lechang in vain, which can really be called a good start.

"Second Brother Cheng, the soldiers and horses of Guangdong fled in despair, it can be seen how poor their combat strength is, according to Gu's opinion, our army should take advantage of the situation and sweep through Guangdong." Zhu Yiluan held his head high, and his face was invincible.

Although Cheng Jingye is resourceful, he doesn't know much about military affairs, so he also smiled and said: "What the little prince said is very true, Yizhang Lechang is two important towns, as long as we hold it firmly in our hands, it is impossible for the Guangdong soldiers and horses to fight back, and the subordinates think that if they leave 10,000 horses to garrison the two places, the army can move forward without worries." ”

"Hehehe, it's really the same as what heroes see. Second Brother Cheng, you come to arrange this, the army will rest for one night, and they will go to Shaozhou Mansion early tomorrow morning! Since Cheng Jingye also agreed, Zhu Yiluan immediately made a decision, and did not ask the generals in the army at all. After saying this, Ma Ping kicked up a puff of dust and entered Lechang City, where the city gate was open.

At this time, Shen Chongming also ordered 30,000 soldiers and horses out of Shaozhou City, first rushed to the east for fifty miles, and then turned north, heading straight to Renhua, which was close to Shaoshi Mountain.

This operation was a matter of success or failure in the battle, and the secrecy work was done quite well, and the 30,000-strong army was not only divided into ten waves of marches, but the scouts alone sent more than 1,000 people, but all the pedestrians found on the road were arrested.

"Little Wangye, Tan Ma Lai reported, the 30,000 Guangdong soldiers and horses who fled from Lechang yesterday are now lined up on the front line of Shaoshi Mountain and Guishan Mountain." Halfway through, Cheng Jingye, who was in charge of the front army, rushed back to the Chinese army to see Zhu Yiluan.

Zhu Yiluan raised his eyebrows, and suddenly smiled: "It's so daring, but it's blocking the way of my army with its geographical advantages, and I really don't know whether to live or die." Second Brother Cheng, immediately ordered the front army, speed up the march, before Gu arrived, be sure to defeat this Guangdong army that did not know whether to live or die, as for the general who led the troops, he would sacrifice his head. ”

Zhu Yiluan was arrogant, but Cheng Jingye felt a little wrong in his heart. "Little prince, my subordinates always feel a little unsafe in this matter, or let's find out the enemy situation clearly and then make arrangements."
