In the past few days, because of the Korean war and the suppression of thieves in Jindi, Emperor Chongzhen frequently logged into the chat group.

No, as soon as he got on the chat group, he saw Lu Ruipeng chatting with him privately: "Hong Zhongcheng's army suddenly accelerated, and he found that the thieves had a division of troops. According to Hong Zhongcheng's judgment, the number of people on one of the roads was very small, and it seemed that he deliberately showed his traces, and he also bluffed, trying to lead Hong Zhongcheng's troops south. Hong Zhongcheng thought that the thief's move seemed to be to cover the main force in the direction of Jinzhong, and it was likely that he was plotting something. Hong Zhongcheng suggested that the other two groups of people step up encirclement and suppression. ”

Hong Chengchou's performance since he led the army made Emperor Chongzhen trust his judgment very much, so he immediately conveyed the news to Zhang Fengyi. Then, he also asked the chamberlain to find a map of Jindi, let people mark the location, and wanted to figure out where the thieves were going and what they wanted to do?

The thieves he was considering, after galloping, were almost to Dai County. When night falls, they camp in the mountains of Jindi. Wang Jiayin passed down the order of the alliance leader, strictly prohibiting the lighting of fires, and convened a meeting of the thieves leaders again.

This camp in the depths of the mountains is the only place where there is light, Wang Jiayin saw that the leaders of all walks of life had arrived, and said with a serious face: "Everyone, the dragon leader of the Heavenly Dragon is risking the danger to attract the troops of King Hongyan to the south, and Daixian is not far in front of us. Whether or not we can break through the encirclement and escape from Ascension depends on whether we can defeat the Datong General Army Headquarters as planned in the next few days. ”

The topic was a bit heavy, and none of the leaders present immediately expressed their opinions, just looked at their alliance leader.

Wang Jiayin turned his head to look at a strong man and said, "Brother Yiyuan, your troops are all composed of the Yansui border army, and they are the most elite among us. When the time comes, you must do your best against the general army of Datong! ”

In the original history, Shen Yiyuan's troops were developing westward, and the momentum was so great that even Yang He, the governor of the three sides, had to contact him in person. Later, when Shen Yikui continued to rebel under the hostage of his subordinates, there were still more than 1,000 cavalry, and his strength should not be underestimated.

And in this plane, the Shen Yiyuan brothers converged with Wang Jiayin and others, crossed the Yellow River and entered the Jin land together. Along the way, he also contributed a lot of strength to these peasant armies, showing the strong side of his team.

At this time, he listened to Wang Jiayin's advice to him, his face was equally serious, and he patted his chest with his hand and said loudly: "Brother Alliance Leader, don't worry, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, life and death are in this move, God dares not to do his best!" ”

Wang Jiayin nodded when he heard this, and then turned his head to look at a man wearing a white hat and said, "Ma Huihui, your department will go north, and go to meet the headquarters of the Datong General Army." Make a posture that intends to block, but must allow defeat but not victory, arrogant of its soldiers and horses, and cause a southward movement. In addition, remember to inform the Datong General Army Headquarters at any time, so that it is convenient to prepare here. ”

He is worthy of being born in the border army, and this plan is said one by one, which is clear and clear-sighted, which makes many leaders admire. Ma Hui listened back, and also patted his chest loudly to reassure him, so that he could rest assured.

Wang Jiayin turned his head to scan the others, and ordered solemnly: "Others, follow me to raid Daixian tomorrow, if you can beat down and catch the officials with status, it is really not good, so surround three sides, and let Daixian send people from the north gate to ask for help." ”

When the leaders heard this, they agreed in unison. To be honest, they really have this confidence. After all, they have more than 40 battalion heads, and the old and weak have been removed, and the number is nearly 50,000, just to fight a county seat, and a person can break through the gate of Dai County if he pees.

The next day, the sun rose as usual, and it didn't seem any different than ever. Dai County's county Yahou Hall, the local parent official, and the Dai County Commander are entertaining guests. What is a little surprising is that the one sitting on the main seat is not the county lord himself, but a middle-aged man in brocade clothes.

However, the accompanying county lieutenant was not surprised at all, because he knew that the county lord was just a person. And the middle-aged man in brocade clothes on the throne is a jinshi in the forty-seventh year of Wanli, and he was an official to the official of the fifth grade. It's just that he was dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian and returned to his hometown.

Don't look at him at this time, he has no official position at this time, if he is idle at home like this, if the court wants to think of it one day, he will be reinstated in minutes, and it may even be a higher level. In the early years of Chongzhen, such examples abounded. Therefore, the county lord is naturally to serve as an official. Of course, there is another reason, that is, the land of Jin is not peaceful, but this person knows about military affairs, and there are many children of his family in this county, so he has to consult him for daily affairs.

This person is a famous figure in the late Ming Dynasty, named Sun Chuanting. Of course, he was just an ordinary official at this time.

I saw a flattering smile on the county honor's face, and asked Sun Chuanting for advice: "There are many thieves, and they have entered my Jin land and made the people miserable. I wonder if the thieves will come to my county? ”

Sun Chuanting listened, drank the cup of tea on the desk, and then stood up and said, "What's the use of sitting in the county government and worrying?" I wait for the good thing to be done, even if the thief comes to Dai County, he will definitely let him meet and break the blood, which is just an opportunity to be rewarded for meritorious service! ”

With that, he stood up and walked out. This surprised the county honor, there was not much time for this conversation, why did he just say leave! He hurriedly followed, accompanied by caution and said: "Sun Langzhong is reasonable, I don't know what you are ...... this"

"Empty talk is useless!" Sun Chuanting turned his head to look at him, and after saying a word, he continued to walk out, and replied at the same time, "Let's go and inspect the city defense and do what needs to be done!" ”

When the county lord and the county lieutenant heard this, they glanced at each other, and they both saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes. To tell the truth, the person who really talked about things in this generation of counties was Lang Zhong who resigned and went home. Since the thieves in Jindi were all around, the soldiers and catchers in the city were all trained by him, and he also arranged the city defense. Now that I see him inspecting in person, I am naturally relieved.

Sun Chuanting went out of the county office, under the escort of the family, walked on the street, and saw that although the shops on both sides of the street were open, they were not popular, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, state affairs are like this, and prosperity is no longer there!

A while ago, the factory guards wantonly arrested Fan Wang and other members of the family of the eight Jin merchants, and even copied the entire civil and military system in Xuanfu Town, which made him very worried. This method of tearing the face is afraid that the emperor will be addicted if he uses it. If that's the case, the future of Daming is worrying!

But fortunately, this large-scale raid was stopped, which made him finally feel more relieved. Unexpectedly, the border army of Jindi scattered in the countryside, attacked homes and robbed houses, and seriously disrupted people's livelihood. Even many thieves in Shaanxi jumped into Jindi together, which made it even worse.

Although Sun Chuanting was not afraid of thieves coming, he still understood that after the war, the people were afraid that they would have to suffer a little more! This Daming, when will the country and the people be safe!
