654, riding the wind and stepping on the snow in Luoyang (2)

Niu Jinxing has not been idle in the past few years, and has also recruited a group of his own team through various means. Compared with the rest of the army, after all, he has read for a few years and knows some things, so in the past few years, the places he has ruled have at least kept the people from starving to death, and the generals who followed him have also become officials at all levels, embezzling and taking bribes to make a lot of money.

Everyone is living a good life, and the desperate thoughts are not so strong.

Therefore, when Bull Venus explained the situation, no one answered for a long time.

Niu Jinxing's purpose in summoning them was very simple, now that the Huaxia army had appeared in Mengjindu, someone had to stop them. And according to the current situation, the Huaxia army at least divided into two ways to attack, blocking Meng Jindu, what should I do with the Tiger Prison Pass? Judging from Niu Jinxing's previous order to the west of the Tiger Prison Guards, this Niu Cheng clearly has no confidence in winning, and only thinks about summoning more people to break off so that he can run away!

"You don't want this look, what will happen if you fall into the hands of the Huaxia Army, you all understand. Not to mention, Wu Sangui and his subordinates, which one is still alive? Yu Guozhen is notoriously mean and unkind, it is the Fan family, a big businessman who helped him a lot in his war with Jianyu, and he didn't give him an excuse to confiscate his family property! If we fall into his hands, even if we surrender at this time, will our belongings still be our surname? ”

Niu Jinxing's words finally had some effect. After a while, one of the generals said, "The villain is willing to go!" ”

"Okay, I'll have five thousand people with you, and you will go to ...... in the starry night" Niu Jinxing saw this person, and he hesitated slightly, but he immediately made up his mind.

This person is not his henchman, but Li Zicheng's, the flying tiger Liu Tichun, is one of Li Zicheng's old generals. Originally, Li Zicheng entered Beijing and became emperor. He was also crowned an earl. But later, this position came to naught with Li Zicheng's defeat.

After Li Zicheng's death, he was even more ostracized, and Niu Jinxing gave him a false name. In fact, he did not have many troops at his disposal.

However, thinking of his feelings for Li Zicheng, Niu Jinxing felt that he would fight to the death with the Huaxia army.

Liu Tichun took the order. After ordering 5,000 people, he left Luoyang City, and as soon as he left the city, he let out a long breath, as if the grievances that had accumulated for many years had been blown out.

"General, we ...... Really go to war with the Huaxia Army? The subordinate asked with some trepidation.

"Did I get water in my skull?" Liu Tichun sneered: "Fighting with the Huaxia Army? Who else dares to fight with the Huaxia Army in this world? You look at them, talking to each other, whispering, do you know what they are discussing? ”

The subordinates followed Liu Tichun's hope, only to see the troops who broke into the city with them. Most of them were frowning, and a few were whispering something when they saw the officers looking at them. Shut up.

"Do you know what they're discussing?" Liu Tichun sneered: "It's better." It's a discussion of running away when he sees the Huaxia army, and there are some. He was even talking about taking us down and sacrificing it to the Huaxia Army to atone for our sins...... Niu Jinxing threatened everyone every time, saying that our army was rampant in the world in the early years, and we would not die well if we fell into the hands of Yu Guozhen. He didn't want to think about it, is the current army still the old brother who followed us in the early years? ”

When the general heard this, he couldn't help but feel sad: "What the general said is, our old brothers...... They are almost dead. ”

"So these soldiers, there is not much killing in their hands, even if it falls into the hands of Yu Guozhen, serving two or three years of hard labor, they can be issued to entangle and settle in to return to their hometown, it is said that Yu Guozhen is also looking for trouble for the division of land in his hometown, teaching them a skill, so that they have the skill to make a living......***, there are already characters like Yu Guozhen, and we will not follow the king to mess around!"

"Over the years, being squeezed out by Niu Jinxing, our Lao Tzu is downsized, although Yu Guozhen killed King Chuang, but we all know that it is above the military array, either you kill me or I kill you, not to mention that the people who really kill King Chuang are only farmers. At the beginning, someone suggested that Yu Guozhen would spread the first achievements of King Chuang to the world, but Yu Guozhen did not let him do so, but stitched up the head of King Chuang and buried it properly - although Yu Guozhen is not a magnanimous person, he is not the kind of person who kills people indiscriminately. I was so guilty of my early years that I could not escape death, but your brothers could not follow me to die in vain...... Therefore, our enemy today is not in Mengjin, but in the city of Luoyang! ”

"Ahh

"After a while, restrain the people, and let's make things clear...... Just say that we have already contacted the Huaxia Army, and the Huaxia Army will not confiscate the money that everyone has to worry about, and everyone will not confiscate the money that everyone has explained clearly. ”

Liu Tichun can know so much, and he must thank the People's Livelihood Express and Xinxiang Daily that he has read in recent years. Because of the rise of Yu Guozhen, the influence of these two newspapers is extremely great, and because of the influence of these two newspapers, many of Yu Guozhen's decrees have also spread to the four directions.

For example, when he treats prisoners, Yu Guozhen does not have rigid regulations that do not abuse prisoners or even treat prisoners preferentially, and his army is the most professional army of this era, and there is no need to directly convert prisoners into his own subordinates, so there is no need for this method to attract people's hearts. But Yu also had no habit of abusing or killing prisoners—except for those who had been taken prisoner or had been killed. Liu Tichun paid special attention to the treatment of Wu Sangui's subordinates, which were published in both newspapers, except for some hardcore traitors who were executed, most of them were forced labor for five to ten years, and ordinary soldiers were forced to do less than three years of hard labor.

Based on this, Liu Tichun estimated that his subordinates were less than three years of hard labor. Even if he is longer, it will be ten years of hard labor, and as for being executed, Liu Tichun believes that it will definitely not. If he has made meritorious deeds, he may even punish only confiscated property, just like those wealthy businessmen who colluded with Jianyu.

In exchange for his innocence, he will return to his hometown in the future, whether it is farming or doing some small business, he does not have to worry about not being able to sleep.

After marching for about ten minutes, it was already a mile away from Luoyang City, and Liu Tichun gathered all the school officials. After Liu Tichun said that their enemy was in Luoyang, the school officials who had been talking about it in detail were all surprised, and then many people clamored.

The people who were clamoring were Niu Jinxing's cronies, and Liu Tichun naturally would not be polite, and directly signaled his own soldiers to cut them down. The rest of the people looked at each other, and were tempted by Liu Tichun with all kinds of bright futures. Everyone gritted their teeth. I made up my mind.

"Niu Jinxing sent me to Mengjindu to die, after that, he must be ready to flee south." Liu Tichun glanced at everyone coldly: "We really want to be able to eat and drink spicy food after joining the Huaxia Army." You have to do something. The best credit is, of course, the robbery of the bull Venus and the gold and silver he plundered! ”

Everyone immediately responded with a bang.

They were also silent and continued their march westward. After bypassing Luoyang City and coming to the south of the city, Liu Tichun expected that Niu Jinxing would definitely go south from Longmen Pass, so he insisted on Niu Jinxing's general Linghu Fu, deceived Longmen Pass, and took these 5,000 people to directly occupy Longmen Pass.

And Niu Jinxing is taking a hundred carts out of Luoyang City at this time!

After sweeping Mengjindu, Li Mingshan heard the scout's report, saying that there was chaos in Luoyang City, and fires were everywhere. The scouts even infiltrated the city, and no one stopped them at all. This news made Li Mingshan realize. Bull Venus is fleeing.

"It's a gutless rat." Li Mingshan laughed: "That's fine." When we entered Luoyang City, our plan to make mutton-stuffed dumplings was about to change. This time the beef stuffing is wrapped in the cow Venus! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, freezing rain began to fall in the sky, and snow seeds like beans fell to the ground, and soon accumulated a layer. This kind of weather was originally not conducive to the march, but when it was learned that Niu Jinxing was preparing to escape, the morale of the Huaxia army was high, and several battalions were coming up to ask for orders, asking them to gather their horses and go first.

For the sake of prudence, Li Mingshan still refused this request, and just sent more scouts to let them come back in turn to report the military situation.

Five hours later, the snow seeds had already turned into goose feathers, and Li Mingshan finally came to the ancient city of Luoyang.

As the scout said, the Niu Venus Department had already withdrawn from Luoyang City, and most of the officials he had appointed had also fled. At the gate of the city, several old men were waiting eagerly, and when they saw Li Mingshan coming, they all stepped forward and knelt down.

"Generals, the thieves in Luoyang City have fled, and we are here to welcome you on behalf of the 100,000 people in Luoyang City."

The old man at the head looked to be seventy years old, and he spoke tremblingly, holding a plate with a glass of hot wine in his hand.

Looking at this glass of wine, Li Mingshan laughed.

He knew the purpose of these old men, and they must have been elected by the city to test the attitude of the Huaxia Army.

After getting off the horse, Li Mingshan took the wine glass, drank it all, and then waved to the orderly behind him, took out a few cans from the orderly bag, and distributed them to these old men.

"The Huaxia army has military regulations, and it is not allowed to abuse the people's property, so you are very gracious, I have to drink your wine, and these canned food can be regarded as a return gift - you fathers and elders just rest assured, our Huaxia army is a benevolent and righteous division under the command of the commander Yu Guozhen, and will not dare to harm the people. Li put a sentence here, if any Chinese soldiers dare to trespass into private houses and forcibly take people's property, Li will definitely bring them to justice and will never forgive! ”

When he said this, the old men breathed a sigh of relief. As for the other half, in this year, who is not talking about it in his mouth, but his hands are dirty and difficult to see!

As for the Huaxia Army, as rumored, military discipline is still valued on the surface, even if they are in trouble, they will not be too fierce.

"Enter the city, send someone to report to Junzheng, and say that we have recovered Luoyang - no casualties!" Li Mingshan ordered.

The old people stepped aside and saw the team marching into the city. When they entered the city, they did not know who was straight, and they sang a majestic song. They always maintained a neat formation, even when they entered the city, they did not spread around, and they did not harass the houses on both sides of the street.

"Tuan Zheng, Tuan Zheng, the scout is back, and he brought a few people, saying that they are Liu Tichun's subordinates!" Li Mingshan also entered Luoyang City, but he heard the news before he could carefully look at the style of this ancient capital. (To be continued)
