Just as Hong Chengchou was cheering to drive the security army away from the vicinity of Fenyang, Zhang Chu gave an order, but the security army's brigade set off from Zhongyang and drove all the way south through Jiaokou County.

There were not only more than 20,000 soldiers of the security army in the team going south, but also a large number of people who were recruited to transport supplies, including caravan personnel including Wang Jijie.

Wang Jijie said that after the members of the family decided to cooperate with Zhang Chu, he soon came to Zhongyang with a large number of personnel from his own business, the two million taels of silver is not a small amount, and the Wang family's previous business channels can be used when purchasing, and at the same time take care of the business of friends, the merchants of the entire Shanxi have benefited directly or indirectly, and everyone is still thinking that the Wang family is really generous, and dare to purchase so many materials in this time of chaos, so that Shanxi's business has suddenly entered a false state of prosperity.

How to transport the materials to Zhang Chu in Zhongyang is the most test of Wang Jijie's ability. Wang Jijie paid attention to the procurement and asked the supplier to deliver the goods to a place close to the area controlled by the security army, and the location was very scattered, so as to avoid people finding a large number of materials to gather in the place, and then let the security army cooperate with him to receive the goods, and he also mobilized all his men to be busy day and night, transfer the materials out as soon as possible, and strive to complete all the work before the government found the abnormality.

Wang Jijie even went to Zhongyang to sit in the battle in person, he not only had to be responsible for the transportation of materials, but also kept an eye on Zhang Chu, lest Zhang Chu collect things and not send troops, then he would not be able to explain to the entire Wang family.

Fortunately, Zhang Chu is a credibility person, from the beginning of receiving the first batch of supplies, he recruited troops to form a new army, and kept training, seeing these Wang Jijie only let go of a little heart, and later Zhang Chu ordered the security army to enter the Fenyang area to turn the northeast of Shanxi upside down, a large number of officers and troops were transferred to the vicinity of Taiyuan, Wang Jijie understood that Zhang Chu would definitely carry out the plan to capture Yuncheng, and then he made up his mind to order the people to transport the remaining materials to Zhongyang one after another. After several months of careful work, all the supplies were almost delivered, Zhang Chu's training plan was completed, and with an order, the army marched towards the south of Shanxi.

When the army left, Wang Jijie found Zhang Chu and strongly asked to act with the army. He had a good reason, I had to watch my money.

Zhang Chu couldn't help but admire Wang Jijie's courage very much, not only daring to cooperate with the thieves, but also daring to go to the battlefield himself.

What Zhang Chu didn't expect was that Wang Jijie was so determined to go to the battlefield with him, mostly because of Zhang Chu's influence.

Wang Jijie has been in Zhongyang for a few months, due to the frequent contact with Zhang Chu due to cooperation, and gradually the two have become familiar with each other, and when they are not too busy, they also chat together, Zhang Chu's many words have opened Wang Jijie's eyes, especially Zhang Chu said that the actual war is the economy, and the war is also a business, so Wang Jijie has many new ideas, so he decided to go to the battlefield to see what the real war looks like, and he also brought his caravan, ready to see what business can be done in this war.

When the huge contingent of security forces appeared in the southern part of Shanxi, it caused chaos. The security forces have been stationed in Jiaokou and other counties for several years, and basically the well water does not interfere with the river water, but they only stick to their own territory and do not expand outward, and people in other places do not know much about the security forces.

Naturally, they adopted the usual method of dealing with thieves, hiding in the Zhuangzi and relying on the strong fort to defend against the security forces. In order to ensure the safety of the troops, Zhang Chu ordered to clear all obstacles in the way of advance, and ordered people to inform the landlords to open the door to meet the security forces, and handed over a certain amount of grain, gold and silver, and the weapons of the villagers, and the security forces to ensure their safety. At first, the effect of this policy was not very good, and many landlords were so distressed about their money that they would rather fight with the security forces than come up with the money.

For those who stubbornly resisted, Chu unceremoniously ordered the troops to attack, and just trained the troops while walking. The security army's trip was to attack the strong city wall of Yuncheng, not only the number of artillery was large in caliber, but also brought a lot of siege equipment, it was not a problem to deal with those small forts, and the landlord wanted to surrender after the security army cannon sounded. In order to deter the local forces later, Zhang Chu demanded that as long as there was resistance, Zhuangbao must be defeated, and then the personnel were escorted to the rear mines as prisoners for labor reform, and all wealth was confiscated, not only gold and silver were collected in the pockets of the security army, and food and other things that could be used were transported south together, and the materials that were not used in other armies were also collected and transported to the rear by Wang Jijie's caravan for sale, as part of the repayment of Wang Jijie's investment.

Wang Jijie was very uncomfortable before, watching one by one Zhuang Fort being destroyed, Zhuang Ding Xiangyong being killed, leaving blood all over the ground and feeling terrified. But after a long time, he recognized this cruel social reality, whether it is a shopping mall or a battlefield, it is the law of the jungle, either you eat him, or he eats you, most of the wealth of the rich is based on the plundering of the poor, he began to arrange for his men to collect all the useful materials of the captured places, and transport them back for money, as if doing ordinary business.

When the local officials heard that a large number of thieves were passing by, they sent people to report to their superiors for help, and then concentrated their forces on retreating into the city. With their understanding of the thieves, the thieves' ability to attack is very poor, if they are not attacked by the thieves, the city is often able to defend, so under the leadership of the officials, the rich families in the city have the money to contribute powerfully, and the officials and soldiers and villagers who defend the city climb to the top of the city, waiting for the thieves to attack, they believe that the thieves can't capture the city, and they will turn to other weak places with no food to eat, as long as they are not robbed, it's okay.

But this time it was the security forces, and their methods of fighting were beyond the comprehension of these defenders. Often the security army stopped, lined up under the city with rows of artillery, under the command of the artillery battalion commander, the artillery fired in unison, the city was still waiting for the security army to attack the city with a sea of people tactics The officers and villagers were wiped out, and then the security army collapsed or blew up the city wall in less than half a day, and the security soldiers with muskets began to attack the city, in front of the dense guns, the officers and soldiers only had an idea to escape, but it was not so easy to escape, the cavalry of the security army had long been waiting outside the city, and the people who tried to escape were killed. When the officers and soldiers understood that surrender was the right choice, the war was over, and the security forces took the prisoners, cleaned up the wealth and supplies in the city, and then rushed to the next goal, leaving no hidden dangers behind their backs.
