If the local snakes in the northern region of Anhui were only vigilant about Han Zheng's defeat of the Bai brothers, then after Han Zheng took control of Wuyang, Bozhou, and Lixin this time, their feelings have turned into fear.

Especially when Han Zheng led his troops to defeat the bandits, the army did not decrease but increased, and the number of soldiers officially expanded to nearly 5,000, this fear began to ferment and swelled, and when they did not fully agree, no one or two forces dared to reach out to Han Zheng.

In the face of the rapidly rising, increasingly powerful and powerful neighbor Han Zheng in the north, the surrounding forces, big and small, while terrified, no one dared to launch a provocation against Han Zheng at this time.

At this sensitive time, no one dared to open this Pandora's box of war, they never thought in their hearts, maybe Han Zheng was there waiting for these people to open the first step.

At this point, since they could not defeat Han Zheng militarily, and they were afraid of the annexed forces, they began to struggle with their brains and think of other ways to solve it.

On 27 April, in Fuyang, Taihe, Mengcheng, Suzhou, and other places in northern Anhui, the leaders of their respective local powerful factions gathered together and talked in a closed room for a whole day, from sunrise in the morning to the rising moon in the evening, and no one knew what these people were plotting.

However, early the next morning, two groups of people dressed up as merchants walked the Huai River, crossed the Huai River, and at the same time avoided the places controlled by Han Zheng, bypassing Shanghai and setting off for the Hebei region, while the other group took the Huai River and headed directly in the direction of Nanjing.

And Bai He, after this party, was even more excited, muttering a few words in his mouth from time to time, gritting his teeth, even his favorite concubine did not dare to have the slightest sloppiness, for fear that if one was not good, he would be thrown into the circle of wolf dogs in the backyard, and there would be no dead body, thinking about the place in the backyard that smelled of blood all year round, no one did not feel afraid or even frightened??????

At this time, Han Zheng took people to stay in the Bozhou area for two days, and then returned to his base camp - Wuyang County.

The strong ones were recruited and trained in the army, and the old and weak were assigned to work in the newly built factories in Bozhou, which was enough for them to support themselves.

Speaking of Sun Zhongwu, it is really not simple, here Han Zheng just controlled the Bozhou area, over there Sun Wu arranged for people to come to Bozhou City, and after explaining to Han Zheng, he established a flour mill in the east of Bozhou City, it seems that he has long taken a fancy to the food production and population density here.

For these things, Han Zheng never interfered, but was worried about the security of this place, and sent someone to act as a guard.

However, Han Zheng did not completely ignore the industry, and most of the civilian aspects were handed over to Sun Zhongwu to be fully responsible, but he himself firmly grasped the military factory to ensure that the military factory could produce ammunition and guns as much as possible.

Today's military factories are no longer simple ammunition production lines and gun production, and can even be responsible for simple repairs!

During this period of time, Sun Zhongwu saw that the textile factory had to provide military production such as clothing for the army from time to time, which seriously affected the diffusion and profitability of the outside world, and it was relatively chaotic.

Because of this, this made Han Zheng praise Sun Zhongwu without less!

In the past few years, after continuous training, he has begun to be able to lead an army alone, and was arranged by Han Zheng to be stationed in the direction of Yimen, while Chen Feng was more calm and conscientious, and was arranged by Han Zheng in the direction of Bozhou.

At the same time, some experienced civil affairs departments and police units were newly transferred from Wuyang and other places to Bozhou to assist Chen Feng in restoring post-war order in Bozhou as soon as possible.

In order to prevent accidents in the course of this war, the People's Affairs Department was sprinkled by Chen Feng to several surrounding places, paying close attention to the military movements in the surrounding places, fortunately, Lixin has Xiang Jie and others stationed, there are no major military transfers in several places, and Baihe in Fuyang looks honest.

"More than 10,000 bandits who once crisscrossed the land, no matter how you say it, you can eat the scum of Han Zheng, a greedy young man." This is what they shared after learning that the bandits were attacking the direction of Bozhou.

However, the result seems to have been beyond their expectations, after knowing the victory in Bozhou, they were a little confused, but there was always some hope, but the news that came next was to stifle some of their last unrealistic thoughts or fantasies!

Not only did Han Zheng not suffer heavy losses, but the army expanded again, and it became the most powerful faction in northern Anhui!

And because of this, there was a secret meeting on the 27th!

However, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the day after the secret meeting of these people, the details and purpose of these people's secret meeting have been sorted out by the Civil Affairs Department, and they are clearly placed on Han Zheng's desk.

When Han Zheng came to Wuyang, he arrived at noon on the 27th, and many local villagers outside the city had already gone out of the city to greet him, and the cheers rang out, making every soldier who followed him feel honored.

After meeting the local villagers, Han Zheng returned to his residence, and his uncle and aunt were already waiting in front of the door with red eyes, and in the hearts of this simple rural small landlord, when they heard that there were more than 10,000 bandits, they were full of worry.

Although everyone in the city thought that their pro-commander would win, this fear was extremely strong in their hearts.

In their hearts, Han Zheng seems to be the child who has been asking for candy at their house since he was a child, although during this time, he already knows that his nephew has grown up and become a big official, but this kind of worry has nothing to do with official position and power, only family affection.

As the commander's family, they don't want outsiders to see their worries, and they smile when they see other people during the day, and when they mention this war, the corners of their eyes and mouth are full of pride and pride, but in the middle of the night, there will be a sigh from time to time in the commander's mansion.

Han Zheng cherishes this kind of feeling, after dismissing the guards all afternoon, he has been accompanying his uncle and aunt, and all the business has been put down, although the uncle and aunt said that Han Zheng should not accompany them to delay the business, but seeing Han Zheng's persistence, the smile on the corner of his mouth still can't be hidden, this nephew is their own son!

Therefore, the news of the secret meeting in other surrounding places was only started by Han Zheng on the morning of the 28th.

"Hehe, just let you be proud for a while, just how much storm do you people want to set off? Nanking? I'd like to see if it's your talisman or umbrella in Nanjing, you people in the north are going to miscalculate, this year is really a good time. ”

Han Zheng sat on his desk at this time, looking at the thin piece of paper that was hurriedly handed over by the People's Affairs Department, a faint smile full of mockery appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he put the paper in the brazier next to him and lit it, leaving no trace.

"Hadron? Hadron! After Han Zheng watched the paper burn, he shouted outside.

Han Qiang has been standing outside the door, without the slightest consciousness of being a guard captain, almost always following Han Zheng in person, leaving other things to Zhou Liangfeng to be responsible, Han Zheng said twice, but nothing has changed, so he acquiesced.

At this time, Han Qiang heard the commander's shout, and hurriedly responded: "Here!" ”

Chen Feng said to Han Qiang: "Take people, let's go to the staff office." ”

Han Qiang: "Yes." ”？？？

After the victory of this war, Han Zheng drove his subordinates back to rest, and there were only a few people on duty in the staff room guarding the only two telegrams in the army, sending and receiving news from outside from time to time.

When a few people saw that the commander personally brought people over, they hurriedly stood up and saluted Han Zheng, and Han Zheng smiled gently at a few people, so that they didn't have to be restrained, just be casual.

These people are all talents for Han Zheng, and they are not so easy to fiddle with telegraph-like technical work in this era, and they are not as easy to use as the telephones of later generations.

And these people are all students studying outside in northern Anhui, specializing in learning this area, and later came to their hometown at the request of their families and participated in Han Zhengjun, and they were all arranged in this position.

Talents in other fields also have their own arrangements, and even one of the first batch of students to come over has become the head of a town in this short period of time, and there are also officers in the army who have become company commanders.

After Han Zheng learned that these people had already eaten and had rested, he got down to business. (To be continued.) )
