Chapter 107: Deputy General Lushun
A Flying Tiger Army flag was raised in the East Gate Tower, Chen Xin smiled proudly, this kind of thing is already easy to do in the special service team. Zhou Shifa has always been by his side, and his understanding of this kind of special operations is much stronger than that of ordinary generals, and the plan he made by himself was jointly implemented by the special service team and the action team, and Li Tao personally led the team to capture the east gate at a small cost.
The rebels in the northern section of the east wall were cornered and had all surrendered, and the Wendeng soldiers on the north wall rushed to the east gate of the urn city through the corner, and the reserve camp in Wollongong was out of the camp and was about to move to the city gate.
The Wendeng battalion has already put the 2,000 headquarters and the 3rd General 9th Division to the east gate, the commander is Dai Zhenggang, the 1,000th headquarters has been left as a reserve because of some losses on Minmi Island, and the 3rd General 8th Division is deployed in Caoqiao. According to the plan drawn up by the staff officers, the 5th General Battalion of the Reserve Battalion at the East Gate would take up the main attack on Chūn Shengmen Street after entering the city. The 2,000th headquarters would press the rebels along the city walls, making them retreat across the river, and as long as they occupied the eastern part of the city, the battle mission would be completed.
Chen Xin sent a letter in the name of Lu Zhi, which was to cut off the retreat of the rebel generals, and then oppress them from east to west, force them to retreat to the southwest, and use the chaos to break the pattern of the Denglai area, if there is not enough land, Chen Xin cannot rely on trade to feed too much in, although the turmoil will die, but Shandong is full of displaced people, if the Wendeng camp cannot accept them, the people who die of starvation and disease will only be more.
Chen Xin walked casually on the city tower, and the sea seal followed behind like a tail, and now he only needs to set a big policy for the war, the intelligence bureau provides the terrain near the target, and the chief officers and staff of each department will arrange for the troops to choose the route, and give him approval after forming a plan.
The guards on the city tower had been replaced by the third company of Zhong Laosi's reserve battalion, and Chen Xin nodded to them kindly, looking like a leader. Whenever he walked by the soldiers, they were a little excited, these simple soldiers were instilled with a lot of loyalty ideas by the instructor, Chen Xin himself also knows how to create his own image, the sense of authority superimposed by layers of institutions, every time the preaching that repeatedly appears in the ears, it is rare to see the mystery of the real entry, which will form a very authoritative and tall image in the hearts of these honest soldiers.
The military judge of the battle group reported to Chen Xin about Zhong Laosi's contempt for military law, but Chen Xin did not express his opinion, and after the arrival of the army, he was transferred to Nie Hong, the judge of the general army, to deal with it, and Zhong Laosi is still in his original post.
This time, the reserve battalion defeated the rebels in the first battle at the north gate, and there was a great element of luck, if it were not for the hasty and chaotic organization of the rebels, the reserve battalion would not have such great results, and they could only be used in the defense of the streets and city walls, because their white spoon spears were very inconvenient in the small streets and alleys, but the fifty detachments of each company were very easy to use, and could be used for both attack and defense. The attack and defense of the city is indispensable in this era, after the battle of Luanzhou, the Wendeng battalion summed up a lot of experience in street fighting, and there is room for further improvement after the battle of Dengzhou.
After Chen Xin finished performing in front of the reserve camp, he walked around at the head of the urn city wall, thinking about whether there was anything missing while walking, until it was almost dark, he slowly turned around and walked into the city tower, the special service team in the hall has been replaced by the guards, Zhou Shifa led Wang Bingzhong to wait in the hall respectfully, Wang Bingzhong saw Chen Xin come in and quickly knelt down.
Chen Xin sat down at the top and said politely to Wang Bingzhong: "Wang Qian, please get up, it is a great achievement for you to stick to the north gate, last night I will meet Lu Dajin, and I have explained Wang Qian's general matter to Lu Dajin, with such a great achievement, a guerrilla attack is indispensable, and reuse after rì is also a proper meaning." ”
Wang Bingzhong knelt on the ground respectfully, he kowtowed again and again after listening, "Da Jin does not remember Xiao Jin is confused for a while, give Xiao Jin a chance to reform himself, Da Jin is the reborn parent of the last general, and Xiao Jin will definitely do his best for Da Jin after he enters rì." ”
Chen Xin raised his hands weakly, and waited for Wang Bingzhong to stand up gratefully before continuing: "The city is still not peaceful at the moment, and my Wendeng camp is used to guard against the rebels, and Wang Qianzong's entry into the horse has to do more things, so that the official can also excuse Wang Qianzong in front of Lu Dajin." ”
"Although Da Jin commands, Xiao Jin will definitely do it."
Wang Bingzhong saw that Chen Xin's attitude was kind, and he was already a lot relieved, but Chen Xin didn't say what else he needed him to do, and let Wang Bingzhong sit at will, Chen Xin said softly after taking a sip of tea: "What to do, Zhou Dajin will arrange it for you, the official first asks when the rì is in turmoil, it is said that Geng Zhongming sent in to find you, and said that he wanted to let the old brothers on the islands of the Dongjiang River come to Dengzhou to raise big things?" ”
"Da into Mingjian, Xiao Jin only spoke after listening to that Geng jīng, and Brother Zhang also heard it at that time, Xiao Jin was confused for a while."
Chen Xin smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's not about settling accounts after the autumn now, what the official means is to let you think about it, Li Jiucheng and Dongjiang Town may be implicated." ”
Zhou Shifa glanced at Wang Bingzhong on the ground, and said coldly: "After thinking about it, let's talk about it, don't say it." ”
Wang Bingzhong felt a chill on his back, Chen Xin meant that he had to drag Dongjiang Town into and off the horse, he didn't know who Chen Xin wanted to drag. "Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde are both in Mao Shuaiyizi, and there are many such in Dongjiang Town, and all the island generals have 1rì with them......" He thought quickly while saying that, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, Chen Xin wanted Dengzhou instead of Phi Island, otherwise he would have stayed there when he was on Mi Island last time, that is to say, Chen Xin wanted the island near Dengzhou.
He raised his head and said loudly: "The people who have the most friendship with Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde are the deputy general Chen Shi of Lushun, Mao Chenglu, the deputy general of Guangludao, and ......."
Chen Xin said with a smile on his face: "Then I asked Wang Guerrilla to write a Tang newspaper detailing this matter, this official heard that Chen sometimes heard that Kong Youde's rebels had arrived, and sent him to poke the ice and go to sea, I don't know if he was caught by Wang Guerrilla?" As a result, he was prepared to defend Zhenhai Gate with the righteous people, which was a great achievement. ”
As soon as Wang Bingzhong heard Chen Xin call him Wang Guerrilla, he immediately asked him to get involved, so he couldn't help but open his mouth, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Exactly, I just don't know that Mao Chenglu ......."
Zhou Shifa asked coldly, "What do you think of Wang Dajin?" ”
Wang Bingzhong's head turned sharply again, he was not unaware of his situation, Lu Zhi had never come to Fucheng, Chen Xin actually controlled the life and death of entering the city, and everything he said before might be a lie, just to test himself, if he didn't answer a little wrong, it might be the end of being wiped out.
He actually didn't understand Mao Chenglu's relationship with this matter, but he didn't have much time, so he raised his head and said: "Mao Chenglu was also sent to Dengzhou to try to make trouble with Kong Youde, but he was also captured by Xiao Jin, and Xiao Jin was willing to write a Tang newspaper." ”
Chen Xin stared at Wang Bingzhong silently, he didn't need Mao Chenglu to be implicated, just to try Wang Bingzhong, when Wang Bingzhong's heart was about to jump out of his throat, Chen Xin suddenly smiled: "This official has heard that Mao Chenglu has entered, and it should be recoverable, that Chen is sometimes in a key place, and he has always been domineering, Wang Guerrilla immediately wrote a good Tang newspaper, and the official had to discuss with Lu Dajin earlier, this matter cannot be leaked, in case Chen sometimes gets the news, Wang Guerrilla's work will become too much." ”
"Xiao Jin understands, understands."
Chen Xin nodded to Zhou Shifa, and Zhou Shifa smiled at Wang Bingzhong: "Wang Dajin, our white spoon soldiers have captured thousands of chaotic soldiers and people, many of them are willing to defect anyway, and most of them are Liao soldiers. ”
Wang Bingzhong was stunned for a moment, revealing a look of surprise, and knelt down again and said: "The last general Xie Dajin is the grace of recreation, and after the big entry, there is a sending, and the sword mountain and the sea of fire will never frown." ”
At this time, a staff officer came in and reported to Chen Xin in a low voice: "Da enter, the west gate is open before the dark, some cavalry go out to occupy the southwest hills, and some go to Shimen Mountain, Li Jiucheng They may have to leave at night." ”
Chen Xin nodded slightly, and stepped forward to help Wang Bingzhong, "We are all in Wujin, we are all serving the country, sharing worries for the emperor, just remember these articles, the current chaos in the city is undecided, my Wendeng camp is insufficient, you will lead your new 1rì into the horse to help in the city, Zhou Shifa and Zhang Dong will go with you, and the future will be even more limitless after you do a good job............
Two years later, in the old camp area of Wendeng, there was tension in the compound of the Civil Affairs Department, and a group of refugees from Laiyang fled today, and they said that many bandits in Laiyang and Qixia had gone down the mountain and looted everywhere.
Now that the army has been transferred, and the local area of Wendeng is very empty, Liu Minyou sent in to report to the army, and at the same time asked the sailor battalion stationed in Weihai for help, so that the scar could quickly bring in and rush to Wendeng to guard the road to the west.
Wendeng was on alert throughout the first month, according to Chen Xin's requirements, each tunbao will send the remaining men to form a strong team to protect the village, and distribute the 1rì weapons captured in previous battles, the factory mobilized male workers, and the literacy class mobilized student soldiers, they all have no ability to fight, mainly to guard their respective settlements, or be sent to the intersection to check for suspicious recruits, similar to the organization of the Red Guards, only the student soldiers in it will fire guns and guns, and they have also learned some rough battle formations, and their combat power exceeds those ordinary tunhu.
Now that the trade routes are cut off, and it is not in the busy farming season, there is no major impact for the time being, Liu Min is worried that the turmoil will last too long, and the farming will start at the end of February, and what makes him even more puzzled is how the bandits in Laiyang dare to suddenly come out.
The west of Laiyang is a plain, the other three sides are mountains, the east near Wendeng has long been free of bandits, mainly concentrated in the north and south, bordering Qixia in the north, Ping Rì has been honest for a long time, now Jingran dares to come out and attack everywhere, Laiyang and Qixia County do not have any troops, and most of the local gentry are somewhat armed, I heard that the two sides are still very fierce.
Liu Minyou didn't understand what the problem of Daming was, the turmoil and mutiny were wave after wave, and the Phi Island had not stopped and Dengzhou was in chaos again, compared to the Daling River two thousand miles away, on the contrary, these forces around him were more worried, although Liu Minyou felt that the pressure of raising 10,000 soldiers at the entrance of nearly 100,000 was too great, but at this time he felt that it was very necessary.
Mo Huaiwen hurriedly came in from outside the door, he came in with a document from the Military Orders Department, and reported to Liu Minyou: "Mr. Liu, the documents from the Military Orders Department were signed by Chen Dajin, please send the civil affairs to start with the right hand, and organize more than 3,000 laborers from each tunbao to go to Dengzhou to transfer the spoils of war. ”
Liu Minyou took it and looked at it, and sure enough, there was Chen Xin's signature, which basically meant that there were a large number of seizures in Dengzhou, and the city was currently in devastation, and some materials were not suitable for storage there, so he was sent in to receive them and transport them back to Wendeng.
"How many supplies are there?" Liu Minyou looked at Mo Huaiwen and asked, "We have only been spending money on the army recently, and we haven't seen them capture it for a long time." ”
Mo Huaiwen looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Tangma doesn't know, it's just that there are two or three thousand cattle and horses in the camp of Mishen Mountain, and cloth, grain, sugar, tobacco and other things are piled up, and every rì is constantly transported from Dengzhou into the camp, and it is not yet time to check, but the silk he saw alone is piled up with more than ten tents." ”
"What!" Liu Min stood up with a sigh of relief, and calculated as he walked, "Two tents can hold at least one boat, which means that there are enough goods to go to Rì this year, how much silver will be paid, and there are cattle and horses......"
He stopped and asked Mo Huaiwen, "Niu Duo or Ma Duo?" ”
Mo Huaiwen did not hesitate, "I don't know, Tangma didn't say it." ”
"You immediately let each Tunbao organization start with three thousand, you and Xu Yuanhua lead them to Dengzhou, I will go to Dengzhou first to check and seize, well, what else does Tangma say? Did Li Jiucheng catch it? ”
"He said that Dengzhou suffered heavy casualties, and three percent of the houses in the city were burned down, Li Jiucheng led the horse to Huangxian, and Chen Dajin sent Liu Pojun to lead the troops in pursuit."
"Jingran let him run, this Chen Xin...... How did Chen Dajin fight, the casualties in the city were still so heavy, and he spent hundreds of thousands of taels of military expenses a year. ”
Mo Huaiwen hurriedly persuaded: "Li Jiucheng and they are all fierce horses from Dongjiang Town, it is rare for Chen Dajin to be able to repel them, and the Tang horse also said, the detailed situation, Chen Dacheng will personally tell Mr. in detail." He looked at the door and lowered his voice, "Mr. Liu, there are some things that Xiao Jin has to say here. ”
Liu Minyou said with a smile: "Why can't you say it directly between you and me." ”
"Sir, don't complain about Chen Dajin directly, even if it...... Even if it is better to complain about the military department or the military order department, now Chen Dajin is one of the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, and it is even more like a death in Wendeng, whether it is the army, schools, workshops, or tunbao, many people have set up statues of Chen Dajin and Mr. Liu, and worship them at home, especially the Intelligence Bureau and the Propaganda Bureau, what is happening in the market, they are all in their hands, and the late life knows that Mr. and Chen Dajin are like brothers and sisters, even if they argue in person, it is common to argue in person, but if some words are passed from other places, I am afraid that they will be misunderstood. ”
Liu Minyou nodded to Mo Huaiwen after listening to the silent half-sound: "Huaiwen, you reminded you right, now that there are more and more people, our white spoon burden is also heavy, some things can't be used to by yourself, I remember this matter, you go to organize and start, you have to rush to Dengzhou within five rì, listen to what Tangma said Dengzhou has suffered a catastrophe again, in need of settling down, Chen Xin must be too busy, you can transfer more than a thousand to enter, I will go to Dengzhou in the afternoon." ”
