385 Lane Separation
"Pass on the general's order, bury the stove and cook tonight, except for the necessary duty soldiers, the rest of the soldiers will sleep peacefully at night and recuperate!"
In Puyang, where He Jiajun was located, He Sanjiang gathered all the soldiers in his hands, and at the same time gathered the people around Puyang, which made the entire Puyang fall into a panic.
To tell the truth, among the territories of many powerful generals such as the Dashun Dynasty, the territory under He Sanjiang, which has the support of the Hongmen base camp, can be regarded as the best managed territory of the Dashun Dynasty.
In just over a year, He Sanjiang not only restored a devastated land to life, but also gave it a certain degree of self-sufficiency in his territory by reconciling displaced people and dismissing soldiers with low combat effectiveness, but he was the envy of many generals.
If it weren't for Puyang, it was north of the Yellow River, more dangerous than Kaifeng, Runan and other places, it was the only important town in the north bank of the Yellow River in the Dashun Dynasty, and from time to time they had to fight with the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, I was afraid that other generals who coveted Puyang's wealth would run to Li Zicheng to slander and seek to seize the territory in the hands of He Sanjiang.
The generals under He Sanjiang's command, including many soldiers placed in Hongmen, did not know He Sanjiang's actions, and they also thought that He Sanjiang's actions were to cater to Li Zicheng's order in Luoyang, and raise troops to crusade against the military operations of Shuntianfu in the north.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
At the end of the night on June 27, the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, suddenly the drums in Puyang City were loud, and everyone in the He family outside the city who had just slept soundly opened their eyes, and then after hearing the military orders contained in the drums, they hurriedly got up and put on their clothes and packed up!
And in the city, some soldiers began to knock on the doors and windows of the people's houses from house to house, telling them to get up, 'Earlier they had given orders to the people to pack up as soon as possible, and now after this beating, the people hurriedly came out of their homes with large bags of things on their backs, and looked at the familiar house with reluctance.
The people didn't know where they were going, but many of them were homeless people who were used to living a life of exile, as well as veterans who had retired from the He family's army.
As for those Puyang people who were originally born and raised, in this chaotic era that they can't help themselves, after seeing too many things of life and death, they naturally know how to live well.
"Let's go!!"
Before dawn, the huge flow of people in Puyang City, including 40,000 soldiers of the He family, totaled more than 300,000, slowly set off from the east gate of Puyang and slowly moved towards the east.
On the other side, 30,000 soldiers led by He Sanjiang came out of the south gate and went the opposite way, heading towards the bank of the Yellow River dozens of miles to the south.
"General, shouldn't we go west? Why did you go south instead? ”
In the team, the general Ran Maochang and several unknown generals caught up with He Sanjiang on horseback, and began to express their doubts one position behind him.
"If I say that from now on, I, He Sanjiang, will no longer be the Dragon and Tiger General of the Great Shun Dynasty, what do you think?"
He Sanjiang's expression was calm, and there was no ripple in his words, but what he said surprised all the generals present and couldn't digest the news for a long time.
"This, this, this...... General, you've become really fast, and the last general and others really can't keep up with your thinking! ”
Ran Maochang raised his head bitterly and revealed his heart to He Sanjiang as a representative.
"Let's tell you the truth, Lao Tzu has actually lost confidence in him Li Zicheng a long time ago. As you once complained, I, He Sanjiang, have made no worse contributions to the Dashun Dynasty than him Liu Zongmin and Tian Jianxiu, but why can they stay in Kaifeng, Runan and other places to enjoy happiness, while I can only still fight on the front line, and I can't even sleep well? ”
"It's good now, he has 500,000 or 600,000 soldiers and horses stationed on the south bank of the Yellow River, but he wants my He family army of 70,000 sons to fight with the more than 100,000 Ming Dynasty troops stationed on the north bank of the Yellow River to fight to the death and open the way for it!!"
"All the dirty work belongs to my He Jiajun, and the greatest credit is their General Liu, General Tian, and General Li.
He Sanjiang actually has some complaints, not only him, but also generals like Ran Maochang under his command are actually quite dissatisfied, and he Sanjiang has been suppressed by He Sanjiang on weekdays and dare not speak, at this time He Sanjiang confided his resentment like a normal person, but it suddenly touched the hearts of the generals under his command and eliminated a lot of everyone's doubts.
"Everyone is a good brother who has followed me from birth to death countless times, and if I don't have a little expression when I know that this Li Zicheng is not authentic and wants us to die, wouldn't I have failed to live up to the loyalty of the brothers here?"
"General, you're right, I already fucking think that this Li Zicheng is not authentic, he talks about fairness and justice beautifully, but in fact, he is very partial to his group of henchmen, he really doesn't want to be a son of man!!"
Ran Maochang and the others finally understood at this time, why He Sanjiang suddenly asked himself and the others that question some time ago, I am afraid that their general would have already rebelled and wanted to judge the Dashun Dynasty to act alone.
However, for those who started in troubled times and other martial artists, who to follow and who to work for is the same, it is nothing more than a question of what the future is, but they are accustomed to the experience of starting from scratch and from weak to strong, why don't they think that the general they follow can also be the same as Li Zicheng, and establish himself as a king, and they can also be the general of Jianwei and the dragon and tiger!
Since He Sanjiang revealed his heart, and although the generals who were his confidants were a little surprised, they had not yet fully digested the news, but they could not prevent them from showing their loyalty first.
"Don't worry, brothers, from now on, I will fly high, with the strength in our hands now, it is only an easy matter to seek a piece of territory and settle down."
"For more than a year, we have been on the territory of Puyang City, and without the support of the officers and soldiers of Dashun, we are still alive and well? As long as you continue to work hard, I swear today that I will never do you any harm in the future! ”
He Sanjiang seemed to feel something, and looked back at the henchman around him with high spirits, and made a promise loudly.
"The last general is willing to follow the general to the death!!"
A group of men jumped neatly from their horses and knelt on one knee to offer their loyalty.
"Okay, all up!"
He Sanjiang was so relieved that he also jumped off the horse, personally lifted these talents from the ground, and patted the dust on his body.
And in the team behind He Sanjiang and them, dozens of long knives that had been drawn half of them were quietly returned to their sheaths, and the owner of the long knife also hid into the team from the new.
