"Governor? On the one hand, the businessmen in Zhangjiakou wanted to buy their lives with silver, but our spies from Shencewei said that Ma Shiying, the governor of Xuanfu, was moved to surrender, what should we do? "Yu Qiushan, the chief officer of the second town of the Tiger Wing Army, can't make up his mind, after all, this is more than a million taels of silver. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yes, with so much money and food, if you raise our army alone, you will have to last at least a few years, Governor! Shall we send a report to Taiyuan and ask His Royal Highness King Qin to decide? Xu Gui, the superintendent of the Tiger Wing Army, asked in a deep voice, after all, this kind of military discussion is in line with him and Zheng Renbao.

"Xu Dudu has a heart, but His Royal Highness the King of Qin has set off in Taiyuan today, personally led the Yulin Army to the north, and at the same time transferred from the North Zhili to the north is also the third field army of our Qin Army, and the first army under the command of Guo Dudu has also been ordered to all go north, yesterday Shanxi Dusi Yamen has begun to mobilize all the people, and the soldiers and civilians everywhere have been mobilized, just wait for an order, and they will go straight to Beijing."

Zheng Renbao saw that everyone was suspicious, so he directly threw out a secret news.

"What? His Royal Highness the King of Qin has personally conquered? Xu Gui and everyone present were stunned by this news, in short, is the destruction of the Ming Dynasty imminent?

"Leveling the world, in this move, merchants outside Zhangjiakou smuggled and betrayed the country, colluded with the Tartars to destroy my rivers and mountains, and were ordered by the King of Qin to kill the rebels. Zheng Renbao saw that everyone didn't say anything more, so he took out the secret decree that Li Jing gave him from his arms and said loudly.

"Respect the Order of the King of Qin."

Everyone else present was stunned by the previous news, and they dared to say more, so they all fell to the ground one by one, and no one was willing to intercede for the merchants in Zhangjiakou anymore.

"Send an order to go down, send people to talk with these merchants, numb their minds, and when there is chaos in the city, they will be killed together, and not one of them will escape, but whoever surrenders sincerely, will not blame the past, dare to resist, and kill all the doors."

Zheng Renbao said viciously, and then sent someone to inform the brigades to lead the camp and make the final preparations, now they only besiege and not attack, and wait for tonight to enter the city in a big way.

"Dudu, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is personally marching, in the east is the first army and the third army, our Tiger Wing Army and Shenwu Army are in the west, and the lord goes to Baoan Prefecture to enter Beijing, should we quickly sweep away the Ming army in the Jimen area and cover the flank of the army?" Xu Gui will not miss any opportunity to make meritorious contributions,

You must know that although he is the governor of the capital, his status in the army is not even that of those senior chief officers, so that after the Qin army unifies the world, he will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and he will be crowned at most, and the national prince is a decision without thinking about it, but in life, who doesn't want to fight? I heard that the armies have recently marched into Beijing, and they will have to arrange for the expansion of the army in the future, and he also wants to leapfrog from the Governor to the position of the Governor, even if it is still under the command of Zheng Renbao.

"The first line of Jimen and Shanhaiguan Yongning is the target assigned to the Shenwu Army, and the secret decree given to us by the King of Qin is to take the Baoan Prefecture to capture the Miyun line first, open the way for the main force of the army, and then bypass the Beijing Division, first capture Tianjin Wei, and block the passage for the Ming Court to escape by sea, as for the rest, we will have to wait for the lord to arrive in person and then assign tasks to us."

Zheng Renbao is a little clear in his heart, Li Jing has always wanted the Qi army to take the blame, he is not willing to be captured and eaten by the notoriety of Jun, as long as Kong Youde goes north, he is destined to be able to break the Beijing Division, and then Li Jing will enter Beijing in the name of King Qin, and directly dump the notoriety of killing Chongzhen and the dragon son and grandson of the Ming Dynasty on Kong Youde, isn't it better?

"That's the only way, let's just take Zhangjiakou and talk about the rest." Zheng Renbao didn't want to say too much, after all, these people, these people, are not qualified to bargain, Li Jing has made a decision, and in front of the upcoming domination of the country, who dares to refute?

……

"Dudu, His Royal Highness the King of Qin sent an angel from Taiyuan, and a decree has arrived." Tan Wu, who had already captured Chengdu, Sichuan, and was leading his army to Chongqing and Guizhou on the way at this moment, finally waited for the news from Taiyuan.

"Quickly set up an incense case to kneel and greet you." When Tan Wu heard this, he immediately commanded with a solemn face, fortunately, they were attacking Yong'an at the moment, and the whole army was still in a state of rest, so there were still sufficient preparations to be able to meet the king's envoys.

"Hey, why is it not the lieutenant who came, but the governor?" Just as Tan Wu was waiting for Tan Wu to give instructions to prepare, he suddenly saw someone entering outside the county office, so he was shocked, isn't this the new Sichuan Governor Gao Xun?

"Why can't it be me? King Qin sent someone to send a decree and sent it to Chengdu first, didn't I worry that you would go wrong on the front line, so I came to help you? Gao Xun said with a smile, and then found a stool to sit down.

"What about His Royal Highness King Qin's will?" When Tan Wu was in Chengdu, he was also good friends with him, after all, he understood that Sichuan was his own base camp, and His Royal Highness King Qin was unlikely to arrange follow-up reinforcements for his own family, and he had to use Sichuan's remaining strength to conquer Yunnan and Guizhou, so as to facilitate the direct attack on Huguang from Sichuan in the future and complete the important task entrusted by the lord, so he was polite to Gao Xun, as for the second town of the Fifth Army that stayed in Chengdu, the second town of the Fifth Army was a whole town.

Coupled with the newly recruited Sichuan Tuntian Army of about 10,000 people in various states and counties to maintain order, kill the remnants of the Ming army and the big opponents, anyway, they have always occupied an absolute advantage, plus the rest of the confidence of Gao Xun, Tan Wu has nothing to worry about.

"This decree is not for you alone, please call all the generals in, a good thing, a great thing." Gao Xun had already gotten the exact news from the visitor, so he laughed.

"Please come to the generals of Yong'an, and invite the former Sichuan commander-in-chief Li Weixin Li and his subordinate generals to come." Tan Wu pondered for a moment, the lord had good things to tell them, the more he came, the better, and he could also warn these people when he took the opportunity.

"All here?" After waiting for a while, seeing that there were constantly generals coming in, Gao Xun asked.

"Except for the second town stationed in the interior of Sichuan, Zhao Sheng's independent brigade is preparing to enter Guizhou in the area of Pengshui and Zhenzhou, and the rest of the people and horses of the first town are here." Tan Wu got up and glanced at it, then nodded and said,

After he finished saying this, Gao Xun got up and walked to the incense case, and only after kneeling and bowing five times did he take out Li Jing's military order from his arms, "The fifth army is the governor of Tan Wu, marching into Sichuan, the merit is very high, and the lonely king is very relieved. ”

"Minister Tan Wu thank Lord Longen! I will never give up! Tan Wu listened to it with joy, this is the rank of general of Zhengxi, but he is not sure whether he is all sealed, or he is the first to become a general.

Gao Xun saw him asking, so he said with a smile, "General Hexi, you are the first general of my Qin army." ”

How could it not, Li Jing felt that he was fighting in the southwest, and the salt tax and grain from Sichuan entered the northwest, which effectively alleviated the shortage of money and grain of the Qin army, and once the battle to pacify the world was launched, the main army would pacify Kong Youde and Jianzhou Jurchens in the north, and the south would need Tan Wu to march into Huguang first and sweep away the remnants of the Ming army and Zhang Xianzhong who were entrenched there.

Otherwise, how could he have added the strength of a town, not to mention that now the whole army of the Second Town of the First Field Army has gone southeast of Sichuan to reinforce them, and when the Southwest Army has four towns and one brigade, there will be 50,000 regular troops, counting the Guizhou and Yunnan Prefectures appointed by Li Jing in the subsequent will, the whole army will reach 70,000 or 80,000 at that time, and this will be a separate combat group.

"Come on, pass the order, gather the captured Ming troops and the recruited young and strong, and then transfer two battalions from the first town, and three battalions from the second town to strengthen Zhao Sheng's department, first let him give me the name of the third town, in addition, another battalion from the second town, cooperate with a battalion in the first town to form a new independent brigade, the order must be completed within two months, during this period, no military orders are allowed, and Guizhou must be taken to prepare to enter Yunnan."

These things were prepared early in the morning, and the first few times he sent a report to Taiyuan, he basically got Li Jing's approval, but Tan Wu never expected that Li Jing's trust in him could be regarded as a hundred and one hundred obedience, not only canonized him as the general of the expedition to the west, but also gave him the right to control the military affairs of the southwest, which is a full seventy or eighty thousand military power!

"Whoa." The army generals below are all happy and inspired, and they have been marching into Sichuan for almost half a year, and they can finally get a large wave of rewards for transfer and promotion, just say that this time to expand a new town, then in addition to Zhao Sheng's promotion of the general army, the rest of the towns, such as the brigade rate of the first town, can also be mixed with a deputy general soldier, plus the new two brigades, the position of this brigade rate, is to promote two battalions, and along the way, many people follow the promotion, fight as soldiers, and sell their lives with their heads, isn't it just for this moment?

"The morale of the army is available, and the first army and the second town are carrying our artillery ammunition and other necessary supplies to the southeast of Sichuan, and when they are converging, our artillery will be able to make the Ming army cowering in the city without danger to defend, and then there will be no forces in the entire southwest that can resist us." Tan Wu had been marching before, and there were mountain trails everywhere in front of him, so as soon as he encountered the fortress garrisoned by the Ming army, he had to attack it with artillery, so the artillery shells were not sufficient.

Most of the artillery shells supplied by Sichuan are easy to explode, and King Qin did not plan to let Sichuan have a complete military production line, so although the firearms and artillery are good, the supplies have to be sent from Shanxi. (To be continued.) )
