Li Yan is an authentic saint disciple, and he can't see the eunuchs and eunuchs bullying the good, so he shook the folding fan and said: "Gonggong Shen, you are such a great official, don't scare this old man!" ”

Shen Liangzuo is the most bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and when he heard Li Yan scolding him like this, he could only apologize: "Mr. Li is wrong to blame the miscellaneous family for saying this." The miscellaneous family is seeing that this old man actually looks down on Lord Ji, and he is fighting for Lord Ji, but he is not shaking any official authority...... Of course, the miscellaneous family is a slave in front of the emperor, and there is no official authority to shake......"

Shen Liangzuo was still talking about good things, but Ji Qingwen interrupted mercilessly: "Okay, I understand Shen's kindness." Can't you say something well? This official hasn't been reduced to relying on a eunuch to get out of the way, right? ”

Shen Liangzuo listened to Ji Qingwen's robbery, and naturally felt a little unhappy in his heart, but now he has 2,000 soldiers under the Beijing Division, and thanks to Ji Qingwen's command, he can come to Fujian safely, and even the logistics and supplies depend on him, so naturally he can't refute Ji Qingwen, so he has to say repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, yes......"

The old man was quite polite when he heard Ji Qingwen's words, and he really had a good impression of him, and said: "Although this adult surnamed Ji is not a serious official, he is still ...... talking about it."

While he was talking, the soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" under Ji Qingwen had all landed on Zheng Zhilong's ship, all of them were full of energy, with their heads held high, their faces firm, and their clothes were refreshing, and the weapons in their hands were also neat and elite, and in a short time, under the command of several tall generals, they quickly arranged a strict formation.

The soldiers and horses that followed these sergeants were not as shrewd and capable as the former, but they also had a bit of discipline, and they seemed to be an elite division.

The old man who spoke saw that the atmosphere of this army was completely different from the defenders of Quanzhou that he came into contact with on weekdays, as if he was a heavenly soldier who came to the mortal world to kill demons and demons, and he already believed a little - this was the legendary "Qi Family Army".

Therefore, the old man, who was a little arrogant, couldn't help but be relieved, and said, "Lord Ji, what I said just now is just a few words of nonsense. This one...... That one...... Since it was the imperial court that sent down heavenly soldiers, it was naturally extremely elite, and it would definitely be able to help our people sweep away the rebels of the White Lotus Sect. ”

Ji Qingwen nodded and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." However, when the official was on the ship, he had already received information that the demon bandits of the White Lotus Sect had withdrawn from the city, and I wonder if the old man knew where they were now? ”

The old man pondered for a moment and replied: "We ordinary people are unarmed, and the White Lotus Sect bandits retreated on their own, and we are already thankful, where do we dare to inquire about their whereabouts?" I just heard that it's over there in Hui'an County, and there's more

Some bandits from the White Lotus Sect were stationed...... But this is also old and old hearsay, and it is not accurate. ”

This piece of information is important and important, and it is not important to say that it is not important.

Importantly, Emperor Chongzhen's order to Ji Qingwen was to wait for an opportunity to find an opportunity to fight the White Lotus Sect and ensure victory in the first battle, so as to accumulate the morale of the whole army. If the number of White Lotus Sectists in Hui'an County is not large, you can go over and test it, and then seek an opportunity to defeat or annihilate it.

It's not important. The emperor gave Ji Qingwen a certain amount of discretion to command the army, and there was no limit to how much time he had to achieve his first victory over the White Lotus Cultists. Therefore, Ji Qingwen could turn a blind eye to this group of White Lotus Sectists stationed in Hui'an County, and wait for his sergeants to rest and recuperate, and then go to them for trouble.

Between what is possible and what is not, Ji Qingwen carefully discussed with Li Yan, Yang Zhan and others, and decided to immediately send troops to Hui'an County now, and take these unlucky White Lotus Sect disciples to establish their authority.

So Ji Qingwen paid a lot of money to let the old man who came over to connect find a few capable and honest young people in Quanzhou City as an idea, and ordered the sailors under Zheng Zhilong to carry all the weapons and ammunition off the ship first-the rest of the grain, grass, money and other things were allowed to be carried later-and then waved the soldiers of the "Ming Wu Army" who had not yet established themselves out of the city and rushed north to Hui'an County.

As for the 2,000 officers and soldiers of the Beijing Division under Shen Liangzuo's command, Ji Qingwen initially considered that this group of people might not be willing to listen to his command, and it would inevitably get in the way of a real battle, so he didn't want to take them with him.

But Yang Zhan had other suggestions.

He believes that since Ji Qingwen has made a commitment to act together with the Beijing Division, sooner or later he will have to fight the enemy together. In this case, instead of rushing into battle in the face of a strong enemy, it is better to practice how to coordinate and cooperate when dealing with a small group of enemy troops - and this group of White Lotus Cultists now stationed in Hui'an County may be an excellent training target.

In this way, after a full meal, Ji Qingwen's department was guided by two chariots pulled by six pack horses each, straight out of the north of Quanzhou City, all the way to Hui'an County.

The destructive power of the White Lotus Sect is obviously not as powerful as that of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.

Along the way, although there are some ruins, most of the farmhouses outside Quanzhou City have not been destroyed, and the rice that has grown to more than half a person's height is also growing in the ground, waiting for the autumn wind to turn into a ripe golden yellow. Although the people in the vicinity were mentally frightened and their property was damaged, the vast majority of their lives were not in danger and could continue to work in the fields.

Ji Qingwen remembered that at the end of last year, in a "change of self-righteousness", Zhuangtian outside the city of Beijing was exhausted

The number was destroyed by the Eight Banners of Manchuria, the people died seven or eight times out of ten, and under the city of Jingshi, which was originally several times more prosperous and wealthy than Quanzhou, there was only a scene of depression and hell on earth.

From this point of view, the White Lotus taught Xu Hongru's methods to be much lighter and softer than that of the Manchurian Han Emperor Taiji - Originally, Xu Hongru planned to take the Ming Dynasty and call himself the emperor with his back to the south; Huang Taiji, on the other hand, thought that he was just a not very friendly neighbor of the Ming court, and the more he looted and destroyed, the more beneficial it would be to himself.

Hui'an County is just a hundred miles outside Quanzhou City, although Ji Qingwen's "Ming Wu Army" is mainly foot soldiers, but the speed of the marching movement is not under the cavalry at all, and after walking for only half a day, you can already see the not tall city wall of Hui'an County from a distance.

It was already evening, and if it weren't for the height of summer, the days and nights would have been short, and by this time the sun would have already sunk to the ground.

Li Yuanyin is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and it is his job to investigate the enemy situation and collect intelligence, so before sending troops, Ji Qingwen let him be responsible for the important task of finding out the news.

This Li Yuanyin didn't live up to his entrustment, and immediately brought intelligence-

The White Lotus Sect is indeed in Hui'an County, but there are quite a few of them, with a total of about two thousand; It was only because the small city of Hui'an County was shallow that it could not accommodate all the White Lotus Sect members, so most of them were stationed outside the city, and only a few leading backbones of the White Lotus Sect lived in the city. And although these White Lotus Cultists had just won a victory against the official army, they were still a group of rabble, resting under the city with a big grin, neither setting up camps nor sending outposts, and completely unaware that they were already the three thousand soldiers under Ji Qingwen, who were already under the pressure of the army.

Hearing such news, Ji Qingwen was overjoyed in his heart, and made a decision without hesitation: immediately wave his army, launch a surprise attack on the White Lotus Sect, take advantage of the fact that the sky is still not completely dark, first defeat it in one go, and then calmly enter the county seat of Hui'an to rest.

Although his deployment was a bit hasty, considering the difference in combat effectiveness between the "Ming Wu Army" and the White Lotus Sect, it was still worth a try, and it was also supported by Li Yan, Li Yuanyin, Yang Zhan and others.

Especially Yang Zhan, he suffered the loss of the White Lotus Sect in Nanjing City, so that even the reputation and future of his hard work were ruined, just waiting for this opportunity to take revenge, he took the initiative to ask Ying, wanted to be the vanguard, and led a team of elite soldiers to break into the camp of the White Lotus Sect first, and after disrupting their positions, and then led by Ji Qingwen himself, he could win in one fell swoop.

However, Ji Qingwen rejected him, leaving a fluttering sentence: "General Yang, our 'Ming Wu Army' is not like this......
