After an afternoon of private visits to Weifu, I saw that some of the measures I have taken since I entered the capital have been effective, and I have also seen many problems.

These rivers and rivers were silently written down in the small book in their hearts, and when they went back, they sorted it out, and they went to rectify which yamen should be.

If it's a policy issue, then revise the policy.

This is how it is to govern, it is impossible to do it in one step, and many problems will slowly appear over time, and then constantly be corrected and improved.

There cannot be a policy that is very well developed from the start. If anything, it's definitely a few handfuls of eggs.

Moreover, Jiang Chuan is still an absolute newcomer in terms of being a ruler.

If it weren't for the information bonus of the later generations, coupled with the powerful force as a backing, he would definitely have no clue at first.

"Childe, it seems that I will have to come out a few more times in the future." Deng Xiaojin held a sugar gourd in his hand, took a bite, and said vaguely.

"I think you said that because you wanted to come out and play." Qi Xuan said with a smile.

"Where? We followed Gongzi out to inspect the people's situation. Today's harvest is quite a lot. My father used to say that if you want to truly understand the suffering of the people, you must go out and see more. Otherwise, if you sit in the yamen every day, you will only hear what the people below want you to hear, and you will not be able to hear the voices of the people at all. ”

Deng Xiaojin opened his eyes wide and said with a serious face.

As he spoke, a trace of sadness appeared on his face, apparently remembering his father who had been killed by the rogue.

"What your father said makes a lot of sense, we will have to go out for a walk in the future. But next time I come out, I'll bring a few more people, I don't want to be a servant anymore, you see this big bag, I can't take it. ”

Jiang Chuan deliberately raised all kinds of things in his hand, all of which were bought by the two women, and said helplessly.

Deng Xiaojin and Qi Xuan both covered their mouths and laughed, and suddenly smiled like a flower, and Jiang Chuan was also relaxed and happy.

Who would have thought that the two of them would let the dignified Prince Regent come down and be their "servants" for half a day.

However, Deng Xiaojin's sadness was also diluted by this smile.

Although Egawa doesn't need to take these things himself at all, it is also a pleasure to go shopping.

His life is getting farther and farther away from ordinary people now, and if he doesn't even have this kind of fun, then it's a little too boring.

When the three of them returned to the palace, it was already completely dark.

In front of the side gate of the palace, Ji Biao, the head of the Guards Regiment, was waiting there, and when he saw Jiang Chuan coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to take over the things in Jiang Chuan's hand.

Someone had brought these things to the two women's rooms. The two girls also consciously retired.

Jiang Chuan looked at Ji Biao as he walked inside, and asked, "Is there another battle report on the front line?" ”

"Your Highness, General Di sent someone to send an urgent battle report of 800 miles, our army has occupied the entire Yuzhou, and now it is on the verge of Tongguan City. Moreover, General Baishan also has a battle report coming over, the Western Route Army has recovered the entire Yulin Mansion, and now it has six cities in Yan'an Mansion, and the troops will be able to point directly at Xi'an City in a few days. Ji Biao followed behind and said excitedly.

"It's going fast. Tong Guan, Di Qing and Bai Shan attacked from both sides, and the trend of closing the door and beating the dog has been achieved, Li Zicheng, the old boy, really has nowhere to escape this time. Jiang Chuan was also refreshed when he heard this.

After returning to the study, Jiang Chuan carefully read the battle report sent by Di Qing and Bai Shan, and his heart was very happy.

Li Zicheng is now at the end of his strong crossbow, and he can't make much waves.

It is estimated that in less than a month, it will be basically calm before the arrival of winter.

And now, Zhang Xianzhong, who has been cowering in Shuzhou, still has no movement out of Sichuan, as if he has made up his mind to use the terrain of Shuzhou to resist to the end.

However, now Heibingtai has not established an effective intelligence network in Shuzhou, so I don't know much about Zhang Xianzhong's situation.

And winter is coming soon, Shuzhou is mountainous and continuous, the road is rugged and difficult to walk, there is a saying that "Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the blue sky".

If you start attacking Shuzhou in winter, the risk is very high. And Zhang Xianzhong will defend according to the danger, coupled with the severe cold weather and the icy and slippery roads, the weapon superiority of the officers and troops will be greatly offset at that time, and the casualties will definitely not be small.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Jiang Chuan wrote a reply letter to Di Qing and Bai Shan, asking them to use the fastest time to encircle the remnants of the Dashun army and annihilate the remnants of Li Zicheng in one fell swoop.

After the annihilation, the captured high-level of the Dashun army can be escorted into Beijing.

Then recuperate in Shaanzhou, completely eradicate the power of the Dashun army in Shaanzhou, and prepare for the attack on Shuzhou next spring.

At the same time, do a good job of preventing Zhang Xianzhong from going out of the Sword Pavilion to attack and disturb the Hanzhong Mansion.

Moreover, the supplies of the army, including winter clothing, food and grass, as well as supplies of weapons and ammunition, will be sent as soon as possible.

After writing the reply, Egawa stamped it with a seal, sealed it with fire paint, and immediately sent it out.

In this era, there were no telephones and telegraphs, but there was always a full-time messenger in the palace who was on call at any time, and the man was a sharp soldier and a horse was a good horse, who would pass the king's order to the two of them as quickly as possible.

Moreover, in the battle report, Di Qing and Bai Shan also made requests for additional weapons and ammunition.

In addition to the gap in the combat effectiveness and fighting will of the two sides, the new musket artillery of the Qin army also played a huge role in it.

Think about it, in the past, when facing a fortified city, you either used human lives to pile it up, or used relatively primitive siege weapons to slowly bombard it.

Even the so-called red-coated cannons are rare, not to mention the bulky movements, and the number is still very rare. In addition, the power and accuracy of gunpowder are not satisfactory, so it is not easy to conquer a fortified city.

But today's Qin army, with new artillery, has become simple and crude every time it attacks the city.

The large army approached the city, and after forming a formation, they first shouted for the defenders to surrender. If the guards know each other and surrender immediately, then everything is easy to say.

But if he met someone he didn't know, the Qin army didn't bother to speak, and dozens or hundreds of field guns were spread out to bombard him.

The Qin army had a large number of artillery, the gunpowder was powerful, and the cannonballs were enough, and the quality of the artillery was high, so it was really generous to start the artillery, and the cannonballs were smashed on the city gate and city wall as if they didn't need money.

If you smash it like this, no matter how strong the walls are, you won't be able to hold it. And often before the city gate collapsed, the defenders were frightened and raised a white flag to demand surrender.

Fighting artillery is addictive, there are simple ways, and no one wants to use complicated ones.

Therefore, the progress of the two armies is very fast, but the speed of shell consumption is even more amazing.

If it weren't for the cities along the way that knew that the Qin army was fierce and invincible, and if they didn't surrender, they would be artillery, and most of them would have surrendered with interest, then the shells carried by the Qin army would have been insufficient.
