Chapter 150: The Third Brigade of the Regular Soldiers, Soldiers Out of Lan County

"Look, the lord's order is here, ordering us to immediately organize the army to the south, cross the Fenshui all the way to Jingle, and go all the way south to remove the threat of Lanxian first, and I have thought of it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Zheng Renbao handed the document covered with the seal of the Metropolitan Governor in his hand to Li Fugui, who looked forward to it on the left, and said with a smile.

"Our army has been stationed in Qilan for a day, and we have basically wiped out the big clans in various places, and we have no worries, and now we should take advantage of the situation to go south and defeat the official army." Li Mao carefully wiped his saber on the side, meticulously smeared oil back and forth for maintenance, and said without raising his head.

Although he only got along with the two of them for a day, he could see that his rich uncle was holding back his strength in his heart, and he wanted to compete with Zheng Renbao, but to be honest, he was really not optimistic about his rich uncle, after all, in the past, he was born in farming, and Sansheng was fortunate to have a Li Jing from the Qinghe Li family, and now he is stained with light, and the real power is better than that of the previous general, what else can he not be satisfied with?

As for his own family, the commander-in-chief of three or five thousand people felt that it was difficult, trembling every day, no matter how big or small, they were all studying hard, lest they delay major events and drag down the Li family, and Li Fugui already had no goods in his stomach, and he wanted to vainly try to get involved in the command of the entire West Road, so he really didn't know what to say.

If you want to say that Zheng Renbao is a man who leads soldiers by nature, he will rush at his prestige in the army with a knife and a shot, and Li Mao will obey him, but Li Fugui is still his own uncle after all, and he is inconvenient to say anything, everything is up to Li Jing to decide.

In this way, when Li Fugui took the paperwork and pretended to read it for a while, the literate cronies came up and whispered to him, he couldn't stop nodding his head, but when he heard that Li Jing had appointed Zheng Renbao to temporarily control all the troops west of Ninghua, his old face suddenly collapsed.

He said in his heart, "Li Jing's nephew, I really don't know anything, I don't need to let my own relatives go, but use such an outsider, tens of thousands of people and horses to hand over to him, if there is a different heart, then the Qinghe Li family, isn't it waxing?!" ”

It's a pity that the military order has been issued and can't be changed, so he can only pinch his nose and admit it, so he handed the document to Li Mao on the other side, "Well, you can take a look." ”

"Okay, since General Zheng controls the armies, please give the order." After Li Mao read it, he secretly said in his heart, the lord is still smart, secretly promoted Zheng Renbao to control the army, and was promoted to deputy general, commanding the three battalion heads, and the clan uncle Li Fugui was also trained, so that one of the three battalions was in his hands.

Moreover, the five newly established garrison battalions and one main barracks were all stationed in the garrison, and another military power was in hand, and the shortfall in it naturally had to be separated from his own family and Zheng Renbao's command.

Thinking like this, he carefully looked at the books in the clerical office, with Zheng Renbao as the acting deputy general, in charge of the third battalion of the third brigade headquarters, Li Fugui's thirteenth battalion, and the newly appointed twenty-third battalion, and the general of the twenty-third battalion was Ma Dashan, who was originally a soldier of the Ningwuguan army, so as to ensure Li Jing's control over the temporarily formed third brigade headquarters.

It's wonderful, Li Mao thought like this, and saw that it seemed to have more profound meaning, after all, it was the head of the battalion that temporarily controlled his own family, so that he could also command an army in the future? Thinking like this, he said directly, it can be regarded as a fixed name for everyone, as soon as he said at this moment, Zheng Renbao didn't say much, anyway, his family is under Li Jing's command, it is a foregone conclusion, and he can't think about it, so he nodded directly.

Only Li Fugui had a black face, and he didn't speak at the moment, Li Mao looked at it for a while, and could only say, "The lord sent a letter, asking us to search for craftsmen everywhere, and this time I captured Qilan, and I caught a lot of craftsmen who made cannons, why don't you send someone to escort them back to Chunxian first?" ”

Zheng Renbao nodded, "That's right, at the moment, the artillery shells of all armies are insufficient, and it is also excellent to send craftsmen to make some as supplements, so leave this matter to General Li, right?" ”

He also has a little disdain in his heart, what if he is really capable and becomes a deputy general? Anyway, they are all serving the lord, and when he asked General Li, he also had a little show of goodwill, after all, in the future, they will all eat together on the same plate, and it is naturally better to have fewer conflicts.

Seeing that he exercised the authority of the deputy general to order his own family, although Li Fugui was unwilling, under the urging of Li Mao's eyes, he had to get up and accept the order, but he just reluctantly said one word, "Okay." ”

When Zheng Renbao heard this, he didn't care, and he didn't get angry, he turned directly to Li Mao and ordered, "Li Mao, I will order you to command the soldiers of your command with the control of all the armies, go straight out of Jingle, uproot the official and military fortresses along the way, and I will give you ten more artillery pieces as support." ”

"Yes!" Li Mao didn't feel guilty, but got up and answered loudly, Li Fugui who was watching on the side was not depressed in his heart, and the little crooked thought in his heart also turned off the fire and couldn't jump anymore.

"Li Fugui, I order you to lead the thirteenth battalion of the headquarters of the soldiers and horses, out of the mouth of the boundary, through Huangjian to the west of Lan County, detour to the back, cut off the back road of Lan County, and respond to me and Li Mao, I personally led the third battalion and the twenty-third battalion of the headquarters to attack Lan County, and then, the armies of all walks of life converged on the two ridges, attacked Yangqu, and the main guild division."

"Yes!" The order was issued, Zheng Renbao personally got up, summoned all the captains, first announced Li Jing's appointment, divided several new formations to form the twenty-third battalion, and then left the troops to guard the Lan Lan, continue to lock up the big clan, chase money and grain, and its three-way army, prepared for half a day, before setting off one after another, on the way, Li Mao's Chen Da reported to inform Zheng Renbao that after Zheng Renbao knew, he led the troops eastward and approached Jingle County.

Because of the full food and drink, coupled with the strength of the soldiers, a day of seventy or eighty miles, the cavalry under his command is twenty or thirty miles forward, began to fight with the official army and the rangers, but the news of the thief soldiers' large-scale attack reached Lan County, all the officers and soldiers were dumbfounded, after hearing that the number of thieves was not less than 10,000 people, a garrison of the leading army had a fierce conflict with the officials of Lan County.

The garrison tried to retreat to Jingle and block the thieves according to the river, but it was light to say, he retreated, and asked Lan County to sit up and down, after all, if he lost the city, the county official asked for the crime, and he should be beheaded according to the law, and in the eyes of the county official, the official army of one or two thousand people, if it is guarded by the city, it may not be impossible to hold on to the arrival of reinforcements.

It's a pity that the garrison has been frightened by the fate of Lanzhou, and what he knows is much more than the county officials, Taiyuan Mansion at the moment, although there are three guards and horses to defend, but unfortunately the shortage is very large, belonging to 15,600 people, of which the family is only five or six hundred, and the rest of the peasant soldiers are less than 4,000, at this time there are about 2,000 people going north to Dingxiang, and their own family has also led more than 1,000 people to the west, the huge Taiyuan Mansion, I'm afraid that even 2,000 people can't get together, once he saves Lan County, who will save him?! (To be continued.) )
