"Big brother, look, I didn't expect that guy Yu Junzheng to have the courage to fight with us in the field." When Yu Junzheng saw Zhang Shihua and them, Zhang Shihua and the others naturally also saw Yu Junzheng and others. So after glancing at Yu Junzheng and the others, Zhang Shihui's face couldn't help but show a playful smile.

"Hehe, those who don't know are fearless. I don't want to waste too much time, give me an order, the whole army will march in at once, I want to spend the night in Gangneung Fortress tonight, understand. ”

"Yes, the last general will obey!" The generals sang in response.

Then, the sound of the war drums of the black-clothed army sounded loudly, and thousands of black-clothed soldiers couldn't help but take neat steps under the command of Zhang Shihua and killed Yu Junzheng and them.

"Bang ~ bang ~ bang ~ bang" Nearly 40,000 troops marched in unison. The original slight footsteps, after multiplying it by 40,000, the sound was as loud as a dull war drum.

And under such an oppressive pace, in just a moment, the distance between the two armies was quickly shortened, and the soldiers between the two sides also saw their enemy clearly.

"Boom~~" The sound of commotion suddenly sounded. When the soldiers under the command of Yu Junzheng saw the black-clothed soldiers and horses on the opposite side with bright armor and momentum. Even though they hadn't fought yet, the immobile momentum of the black-clothed army still overwhelmed them a little.

And look at them again, don't say anything about the bright armor and the momentum like a rainbow, compared with the soldiers and horses of the black-clothed army opposite, the soldiers and horses on Yu Junzheng's side are like a group of beggars dressed in colorful clothes.

The messy clothes, the wooden expression, the weapons like hoes, and the armor like rotten wood, compared with the two, are like fireflies compared to the bright moon, and the difference is immeasurable.

"This, this is the black-clothed army......" Looking at the black-clothed army on the other side, who was like a tiger, the depressed and breathless black-clothed army, Yu Juntai and Cai Laosan, who were still shouting in the square, were also stunned.

Fools can see what kind of result will occur when such two armies fight.

So after his face changed and changed, he finally suppressed the fear in his heart. Yu Junzheng, who was supervising the battle after the battle, was also busy riding out of his horse, running to the front, and squeezing out a smile on his face, "Hehe, it's Brother Zhang on the other side." ”

"......" was silent, and no one in the black-clothed army paid attention to him.

Seeing this, Yu Junzheng trembled, wiped the sweat on his forehead with a smile, "Haha, Brother Zhang, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings." My scouts mistook you for Tartars, don't you see that this is a misunderstanding? ”

"Hehe, Brother Zhang, you have worked hard from afar, I have already helped you take this Jiangling City, I will hand over the city to you Brother Zhang now, we will leave now, leave now, hehe, leave now."

Saying that, Yu Junzheng couldn't help but hurriedly waved his hand to the back and asked them to leave with the backbone elite of the army and himself.

But at this time, Zhang Shihua, who had been silent, finally spoke. "I want to leave, but it's not that easy."

"The whole army obeys the order, kill me!"

"Kill!" Finally, the black-clothed sergeant like a mountain couldn't help but roar. Hearing such shouts and killings, Yu Junzheng's side had not yet fought, and a large number of routs could not help but appear. Even he, Yu Junzheng, was under the escort of a group of personal guards, riding a horse and fleeing for his life.

However, at this time, I realized that the escape was obviously over. The left wing had already let Guo Yu, who had escaped from Yu Junzheng, catch up with Yu Junzheng and others as soon as possible. Then there was only a brief engagement, and the rest was a one-sided slaughter.

"Heavy infantry regiment, kill me!" On the other side, the hoplite regiment was finally put into the battlefield again.

In the face of such devil-like soldiers and horses, the results of Yu Junzheng's infantry can also be imagined.

Half an hour, yes, the sum of the front and back was only half an hour, and the 50,000 horses under Yu Junzheng's command were completely defeated, and a joke-like battle finally came to an end.

……

"My lord, everything is as you wish, we captured Yu Junzheng and his generals alive, do you still want to see them?" A quarter of an hour later, Guo Yu, who was sent out to hunt down the enemy, couldn't help but ride his horse in front of Zhang Shihua.

"No, it's enough to catch it. As for the meeting, it's just a dead man, there's nothing to see. Zhang Shihua waved his hand indifferently, and then crossed the battle situation in front of him, and set his eyes on Jiangling City, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.

Jiangling is mine, and the entire land of Xiangjing is mine. As he thought so, his gaze couldn't help but become deeper and deeper.

……

The next day, in Gangneung Fortress. After a night of changes, Gangneung City couldn't help but change hands again.

At this point, it also represents the perfect end of this large-scale expedition launched by Zhang Shihua, and the next thing is just some clearance and finishing.

In the entire Jinghu North Provincial Propaganda Division, except for De'an Mansion in the northwest, which luckily saved a small part of the soldiers and horses due to its geographical location, all the remaining states, two prefectures, and two roads, all the resistance forces were crushed by Zhang Shihua. Whether it is from the Yuan and Mongolian courts or the so-called rebels.

So at this time, Zhang Shihua first counted the money and grain seized in these days, cut off the heads of Yu Junzheng's guys in public, collected the hearts of the people in Jiangling City, and held a banquet to celebrate the victory. He couldn't help but divide his soldiers and horses into three ways to pocket the fruits of victory that he had not yet had time to pick.

This process did not last long, and after losing all resistance, the Blackcoats remained invincible. As long as the troops are under the city, they can completely occupy the city without blood.

So with this momentum, Zhang Shihua immediately established a great prestige on the side of the Jinghu North Dao Propaganda Division.

There are not only many heroes who come to invest when they hear the wind, such as Fan Zhong, the first hero of Songzi County, who is famous in Zhongxing Road, and Li Zhi, a monk from Jingmen. Even many court officials have successively surrendered to Zhang Shihua, including six or seven county-level officials.

After all, the battle of the black-clothed army's southern expedition can be said to be a legend. Zhang Shihua and the black-clothed sergeants under his command captured one state, two prefectures, and two roads in one fell swoop in less than a month.

Therefore, Zhang Shihua's current limelight can definitely be said to be unique for a while. While suddenly becoming famous in the world, people in the world can't help but regard him, Xu Shouhui, and Liu Futong as the three giants of the world's righteous army.

believes that if the Yuanmeng court is overthrown, then the one who replaces the Yuanmeng court to unify the world must be one of these three people.

However, Zhang Shihua himself only laughed at such an evaluation and didn't care at all.

As a traverser, no one understands the truth of the tree better than Zhang Shihua. Therefore, to be honest, Zhang Shihua didn't want to make such a worthless false name at this time.

Although after laying down Zhongxing Road and other places, Zhang Shihua already has the capital to divide a place to stand on his own. But to be honest, compared with the Yuanmeng court, Zhang Shihua's current power is still not enough.

It's hard to say, if the Yuanmeng court really wants to kill him at any cost. Then to mobilize the forces of the three provinces around him, Huguang, Jiangbei, and Sichuan, it will take less than half a year, and he Zhang Shihua is estimated to be dragged to the capital by the Yuanmeng Tartars to be beheaded.

So in the month after becoming famous, Zhang Shihua can really be said to be surprisingly low-key.

In addition to taking over all the soldiers and horses in Xiazhou Road, Chuyang Mansion, Anlu Mansion, Jingmen Prefecture, and Zhongxing Road, and letting them officially become their own territory, and secretly sending 3,000 freshly baked heavy armor to the northern region guarded by Zhao Jiu. Even the De'an Mansion, which was close at hand and could be defeated with a wave of his hand, ignored it.

After all, after eating so much territory at once, even if the black-clothed army had a strong digestion ability, Zhang Shihua almost didn't eat himself. At this time, there is still the mood to make some big news.

Time has come to the winter and November of the twelfth year of Zhizheng in the blink of an eye, and it is almost snowing when it is cold, and more than a month has passed since the end of the southern expedition of the black-clothed army.

But after such a long time, Zhang Shihua still hasn't finished the pile of bad things after the war.

The issue of the resettlement of tens of thousands of prisoners of war, the appointment of officials in the newly occupied areas, the deployment of troops in various regions, the winter resettlement of soldiers in winter, and the establishment of nearly 10,000 heroes who have become famous in the past month, these bunches of problems are almost blowing up Zhang Shihua's head.

Although it is said that with the continuous expansion of the territory, the scribes under Zhang Shihua who can do practical things are no longer as overstretched as when he first started the army, and even the former Jingmen Zhizhou Nie Bing and the former Dengzhou Zhizhou Wang Le, these two capable diehards, also with the rapid development of Zhang Shihua's power more than ten days ago, took refuge in Zhang Shihua and decided to do things for Zhang Shihua.

But to be honest, there are still not many magistrates under Zhang Shihua who can really be useful.

So much so that at this time, under Zhang Shihua's rule, nearly thirty percent of the political affairs in the region are actually managed by the generals under Zhang Shihua's command.

The military generals manage political affairs, and there is no need to say much about what the results can be.

Therefore, although Zhang Shihua now works for six hours a day to correct official documents. But after a month of busyness, many things still can't be properly solved. So much so that Zhang Shihua is still in Jiangling City, and he has no time to go back.

……

Unlike Yu Junzheng, after attacking Jiangling City, Zhang Shihua did not move to the Huaiwang Palace in the city. Instead, after sealing the splendid palace of King Huai, he moved into a large family that was destroyed by Yu Junzheng.

The owner of this family used to be surnamed Liu, and it seems that he was a prefect of Zhishi Shanglu. This mansion is also very large, with five courtyards in the front and back, not to mention, and even a garden. The elegant environment during this period is better than Zhang Shihua's general's mansion in Xiangyang.

So in terms of food and housing, Zhang Shihua has not wronged himself at all these days.

However, compared to before, this place is now much more solemn. Because after living in this courtyard, Zhang Shihua sent away all the maids and servants in the house, except for the cooks in the house, everything else in the house was maintained by Zhang Shihua's personal guards.

And this, in fact, is also a habit of Zhang Shihua. When going out, when it comes to the life of his family, Zhang Shihua always seems a little cautious and suspicious.

But at this time, I won't talk about this, just talk about a study in the second courtyard of this mansion. Zhang Shihua couldn't help but discuss with the military advisor Zhao Ziyu about the establishment problems that have been too late to deal with these days, and after nearly 10,000 heroes defected in a month.

"Ziyu, you know, things like this are very tricky. For these famous heroes who came to us, no matter what, we can't be strong on others. After all, it is about the reputation of our army, and we can't give the world's heroes the impression of being cruel and ruthless, mean, and unkind. ”

"But you're right. Since they took refuge in me Zhang Shihua and received a military salary from me Zhang Shihua, then everything must be done according to the rules of our black-clothed army. So after thinking about it for a few days, I don't think we can just give these heroes some official positions and pull them down. ”

"We also want them to bring people to receive our training, just like the training of the boot camp. Let's put the ugly words in front of them first, and if they can accept our training and persist for two months, then they will be considered qualified and officially become a member of my black-clothed army. ”

"If you can't take the training and can't hold on, let them leave as soon as possible. It's impossible for us black-clad soldiers to be everyone. And as for this process, if someone dares to hit the signboard of our black-clothed army and do those oppressive and good things, then we will use a knife to teach them what it means to obey the rules. ”

"Ziyu, what do you think of my method?" Looking at Zhao Ziyu sitting in the hall, Zhang Shihua took a sip of tea and asked.

"Lord, your plan is good. But after these people are trained, how should they be arranged? ”

"Is this ...... Hey, including Meng Haima and those officers and soldiers who surrendered, I have a total of 90,000 households under my account. But excluding these famous heroes, I only have 65,000 people in total. ”

"65,000 people, even if you add seven or eight thousand heroes, it is completely enough for 10,000 households. After all, Ah Jiu's Flying Tiger Army has to further expand its troops. Let's break up these heroes from all walks of life and divide them into nine million households, which is not a problem. ”

"My lord is wise, since this is the case, I will go down and start making arrangements."

"Well, go down. …… Ziyu and so on" seemed to think of something, but Zhang Shihua couldn't help but stop Zhao Ziyu again.
