421 Race to escape
Emperor Chongzhen didn't think about it so much at first, and he didn't know the character of He Renlong, so when he heard it, he frowned and said, "Could it be that Hong Chengchou didn't announce your father-in-law's guerrilla identity?" ”
If this is the case, then Lu Ruipeng is suspected of dereliction of duty, so he immediately said: "My subordinates heard Hong Zhongcheng announce with their own ears that the imperial court has named his father-in-law a guerrilla general. ”
Sun Chuanting was stunned, why did this Dongchang fan claim to be a subordinate to the group leader? Could it be that the leader of the group is not a monk, but a person from Dongchang?
This thought flashed through his mind, but no matter how he was, he never imagined that the leader of the group would be the current emperor. At this time, he had a good impression of Zhang Xianzhong, so he explained: "In fact, this kind of thing is also common, and most of the officials and soldiers look down on thieves...... People of origin. In the same way, those who abandon darkness and turn to the light will have some prejudices against the officials and soldiers in their hearts. Sometimes, it's inevitable that there will be some skirmishes! ”
When Zhang Dingguo saw it, he immediately responded: "We rebelled because we couldn't survive at the beginning. If it weren't for those corrupt officials, would we be thieves! ”
In his words, Sun Chuanting's words just now were well confirmed. People who are born as thieves have hatred for corrupt officials and corrupt officials, at least they will not have a good impression.
When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up, didn't Wen Tiren suggest sending some troops to Xue Guoguan, so that he could persuade him to donate more food!
So, after thinking about it for a while, he opened his mouth and announced: "In this way, Liu Guerrilla Liu Guerrilla will be stationed in Dai County first, obey Sun Langzhong's command, and settle down." When the will of the imperial court arrives, he will take up the new station. ”
"What about my father?" When Zhang Dingguo saw it, he immediately asked.
Seeing that he was so concerned, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but smile and said, "You and your father-in-law led the people of the headquarters to the Xuanfu and obeyed the dispatch of the auxiliary minister Xue Guoguan." ”
Such an arrangement can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
First, Zhang Xianzhong's transfer from Daixian avoided the conflict with the soldiers of the Yansui Army who continued to chase and kill them all the way.
Second, letting Zhang Xianzhong take Zhang Dingguo to Xue Guoguan's side means that Xue Guoguan also has instant communication means to facilitate contact and understand the situation on Xue Guoguan's side.
Third, Zhang Xianzhong, who was born as a thief, has no good impression of the squire. If Xue Guoguan gave an order, there would be no regular Ming army looking forward and backward at all, and there would be many scruples. They should be eager for Xue Guoguan to forcibly donate to every squire, and they will definitely do their best in this action.
When Zhang Dingguo heard it, Liu Guoneng was following Sun Chuanting, who didn't know what official position he was, but his father-in-law was going to be with the cabinet assistants, which was a big promotion! You must know that the cabinet ministers are similar to the prime ministers of the previous dynasty.
Thinking so, he immediately withdrew from the chat group and said to Zhang Xianzhong, who was sulking: "Father-in-law, the Jingshi said that you should lead the people of the headquarters to the Xuanfu and obey the dispatch of the auxiliary minister Xue Guoguan." ”
"What?" When Zhang Xianzhong heard this, he immediately opened his mouth in surprise, "You said it's an auxiliary minister?" ”
"Yes, Cabinet Minister!" Zhang Dingguo was also full of excitement, nodded and confirmed.
Zhang Xianzhong was confirmed, and the little thought in his heart that doubted the sincerity of the imperial court suddenly disappeared completely, full of joy. Later, he climbed into the relationship between the cabinet and the auxiliary ministers, which is far better than Sun Chuanting! He stood up excitedly, and after walking back and forth, he suddenly stood still and said to Zhang Dingguo: "You hurry up and thank your father-in-law, just say that your father-in-law will do his best to serve the court!" ”
Zhang Dingguo listened, immediately re-entered the chat group, and made a statement according to Zhang Xianzhong's instructions. When Emperor Chongzhen saw it, he was about to say a few words of encouragement, when Zhang Fengyi, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "Our department has caught up with the Datong army, and more than half of its men and horses have been lost, and Wu Xiang, the general soldier of Datong, is safe and sound. More than 5,000 thieves have crossed the Datong army and fled to the north first. There are many thieves along the road, scattered in the mountains and forests. ”
This was really a chaotic battle, the Datong army fled first, and the thieves were also fleeing later. But Wu Xiang and the others thought that the thieves behind them were chasing them, so they were so frightened that they kept fleeing north.
On the road, there were thieves who didn't know the situation, and wanted to stop the Datong army as agreed in advance, but they were all rushed by the Datong army who jumped over the wall in a hurry.
The scattered thief infantry saw the accomplices behind the Datong Army, and it was quite funny at first, but later found that they were running for their lives, as if they were killed by the Yansui Army, and immediately followed behind and fled in the direction of the Datong Army's escape.
The more the thieves fled, the more they ran with the infantry along the way, and along the way, the more people fled. And the more of them, the more panicked the Datong army became. At this time, even if Wu Xiang wanted to fight again with the whole army, the military order could not be passed on, so he could only continue to run.
ran like this, and finally met the Datong Army foot soldiers who came all the way. But these foot soldiers saw that the cavalry was fleeing back, and behind them were countless thieves "chasing", so these foot soldiers also turned around and fled.
After escaping, when Ma Xianglin led the selected cavalry to catch up, those rogue cavalry suddenly accelerated, ran and ran past the Datong army that fled in front, and then disappeared.
And the Datong army looked at the back of the rogue cavalry in the distance, was it dumbfounded, I don't know if it was because he was invisible or those rogue thieves were blind, and they actually chased after him?
This kind of doubt, until Ma Xianglin caught up with them, suddenly realized what was going on. However, at this time, Wu Xiangyi, who was exhausted, counted the people and found that at least half of them were missing. Especially after he learned from Ma Xianglin about the whole thing that started last night, he was almost crying without tears. The one who originally had a great merit was thrown away by himself. And now, I don't know what the court will do with itself after knowing about it!
Besides, in the chat group, Emperor Chongzhen knew what had happened, and he didn't care about how to deal with Wu Xiang, and after thinking about it carefully for a while, he immediately said: "Let the Yansui army immediately divide its troops to the north, mobilize the officers and troops of the local guards along the way, and search for the thieves scattered into the mountains and forests. ”
When Lu Ruipeng heard it, he immediately agreed.
"Ma Xianglin's department, receiving supplies from the locality, continues to pursue the fleeing thieves, and can't give them a chance to breathe."
When Zhang Fengyi heard this, she immediately agreed, she had already guessed this will.
Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, and then explained to Zhang Fengyi: "Let Wu Xiang rectify the remaining soldiers and horses, and clean up the remaining thieves along the way until he joins the Yansui army!" ”
After saying this, he saw that the achievement value was only 84 points, so he said: "Follow-up, give me a private chat, and this group will be disbanded." ”
After saying that, Emperor Chongzhen disbanded the temporary group. Yes, there is no achievement value, it's time to go out of the palace.
