On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, Kuizhou capital city, government office, wing room.

Zheng Xunrui's face was calm, Qin Liangyu was sitting on his left, Xu Wanghua was sitting on his right, Zheng Jinhong, Yang He, Liu Zeqing, Wang Yuncheng, Wang Xiaoer and others were standing opposite.

In this battle, the results achieved were still good.

Wang Yuncheng led the 4,000 soldiers of the first battalion and the second battalion of the Zhengjia army cavalry, defeated the Liukou in Wuning Town, captured Sun Kewang alive, killed more than 3,000 Liukou, nearly 1,000 Liukou surrendered, and less than 500 people fled.

However, such a victory, in Zheng Xunrui's view, is nothing, on the contrary, after this battle, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng are more vigilant, which indicates that the battle will be more difficult in the future.

For many rumors about Zheng Xunrui and Zheng Jiajun, Qin Liangyu didn't particularly believe in it before, but in this battle of Tongguò, she completely believed that the terrain of Kuizhou is extremely special, and it takes a long time for ordinary people to adapt to it after coming here, not to mention fighting, even if it is not easy to walk many mountain roads, I can't imagine that Zheng Jiajun came to Kuizhou in less than a month, and achieved an unprecedented victory, of course, this unprecedented victory, which is aimed at the army of the guard in Sichuan.

Qin Liangyu and Wang Yuncheng had already reported all the battles.

The white pole soldiers seized the fighter this time, but this battle was personally commanded by Qin Liangyu, and Qin Liangyu also went into battle to kill, and the white pole soldiers led by Ma Xianglin were on alert in the Liangshan and Dazhu areas and could not participate in this battle.

Qin Liangyu also asked Zheng Xunrui why he judged that the Liukou would evacuate from the direction of Chungju, it is said that this choice is very unwise, Zheng Xunrui did not explain in detail, and some things need to rely on direct judgment.

Li Zicheng fled in the direction of Banju. Zhang Xianzhong also acted, left Wanxian, and went in the direction of the handover of Wanxian and Yunyang, relative to Liukou's movements. Zheng Xunrui also quickly made adjustments, and the white pole soldiers led by Ma Xianglin moved in the direction of Wanxian, paying special attention to controlling the waterway, and Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Huguang, strengthened his vigilance. It was strictly forbidden for the rogues to enter the territory of Huguang, and Zheng Jiajun made preparations to enter Yunyang along the waterway, fortified in Yunyang, and controlled the construction of the first and the Shizhou guard of Huguang by land.

The purpose of this is to press Zhang Xianzhong to the death in the Yunyang area, and gradually narrow the encirclement, so that Zhang Xianzhong will finally be cornered, according to such a deployment, it will not take a month. Zhang Xianzhong will fall to the point of exhaustion.

Li Zicheng has fled to the direction of Banzhou, and there are less than 1,000 remaining sergeants under his command, so it is not much of a threat for the time being, when this group of rogues can definitely not be underestimated, Zheng Xunrui made two decisions, one is to ask Qin Liangyu to send white pole soldiers to pursue along the road, not to give Li Zicheng any respite, and the other is to write a letter to the Banzhou Xuanfu Division, asking them to strictly prevent and control and exterminate the rogues. Of course, Banzhou is a place where Tusi is concentrated, and there are local customs, whether it can go all out to exterminate the Liukou, Zheng Xunrui dare not guarantee.

Entered Kuizhou for such a long time. Zheng Xunrui learned that the mountains in this area are sparse and desolate, and it is no wonder that Shu Road is difficult to walk, such a precipitous place, it is not easy to build an official road, but fortunately, there is a big river running through it, and Zheng Jiajun entered Wanxian. To set up an ambush in Wuning Town is to take a boat, and you really have to take mountain roads and official roads, and I don't know how long it will take.

"Wang Xiaoer, you have made a lot of contributions to this victory, and you should be rewarded."

"Lord Yu, this is what your subordinates should do, your subordinates implore you to attack again, Zhang Xianzhong has moved towards the junction of Wanxian and Yunyang, and his subordinates must find out the movements of the Liukou in the shortest possible time."

"Well, this task belongs to you, but this time don't be in such a hurry, slowly investigate, we will not attack Zhang Xianzhong for the time being, but to trap him firmly in this mountain at the junction of Wanxian and Yunyang, those businessmen who do business with the Liukou, for such a little silver, do nothing, this needs to be severely punished, let all the businessmen see, what is the end of trading with the Liukou, as long as we trap all the sources of the Liukou, they will not be able to support for long, and when they are forced to leave the mountain, it's time for us to launch a general offensive. ”

Qin Liangyu, who rarely spoke, spoke.

"My lord, Ben will have a request."

"Mrs. Qin, please speak."

"General Wang detected the whereabouts of the Liukou, Ben will be very surprised, the white pole soldiers are native, familiar with the environment here, have not been able to detect the movements of the Liukou, General Wang has not been in Kuizhou for a long time, he can overcome many difficulties, Ben will be really admired, General Wang will reconnoiter the whereabouts of the Liukou this time, can you allow the general to send the white pole soldiers to follow, but also to learn something."

Qin Liangyu's request, not high, not high, can be said to be very high, any army, scouts are basically secret, how to investigate how to obtain intelligence and other matters, it is a top secret in the army, can not be known to outsiders, Qin Liangyu proposed to send white pole soldiers to follow Wang Xiaoer's action, obviously thinking about learning how to investigate.

Zheng Xunrui will not refuse, he does not need to conceal some basic investigation methods, and I am afraid that after a long time, the heavy task of exterminating the rogues will fall on Lu Xiangsheng and Qin Liangyu and others.

"Mrs. Qin's request, the official should agree, but the official also has something to say in front."

"Your Excellency, just command."

"It's very hard to go out to investigate, let alone in the mountains, so the personnel sent by Mrs. Qin must be absolutely capable and smart, able to endure hardships, and be able to face danger calmly, if you can't meet such a requirement, I'm afraid that just after you set off, Wang Xiaoer will order her to go home."

"There's no problem with this, Ben Jiang still wanted to let Lin'er participate in it, but unfortunately there was no chance."

Zheng Xunrui couldn't laugh or cry, Ma Xianglin is indeed very good at fighting, but it is definitely not good to be a scout, not to mention anything else, just say that he is blind in one eye, which is absolutely unqualified, you must know that the scout must have the ability to distinguish and judge the direction, the visual distance must be basically accurate, and the map must be drawn quickly, most of these rely on the eye.

"Mrs. Qin said with a smile, General Ma is a hussar general canonized by the emperor, and he is going to lead the troops to fight, if General Ma needs to come forward in person for this scout investigation, the rest of the white pole soldiers are afraid that their faces will be dull."

Zheng Xunrui lifted Ma Xianglin and the white pole soldiers without leaving a trace, and Qin Liangyu was of course very happy.

"The adult is really good at talking, the general really wants Lin'er to follow the adult to learn, the general will not tell lies in front of the people, I have heard of the courage of the Zheng family army and the wisdom of the adult, at first I still didn't believe it, after this battle, the general was completely convinced, the adult commanded the extermination of the Liukou, this is the most sensible decision made by the imperial court."

Zheng Xunrui has more good feelings for Qin Liangyu in his heart, this is a heroine who dares to speak out, compared to those adults in the court, he is much more straightforward, but unfortunately because of the restrictions of gender and identity, it is impossible to enter the court, and it is unlikely that he will go to other places to hold other positions, and he can only be in the stone pillar for the rest of his life.

"Thank you Mrs. Qin for your trust, this official can't be complacent, the current situation is not very optimistic, Zhang Xianzhong has not yet suffered a heavy blow, as for Li Zicheng, although there are less than a thousand people under his command, they are the most elite, these people can cause turmoil anywhere, so in a short period of time, it is difficult to calm down in Kuizhou, Chongqing and Banzhou."

"What my lord said is that this time he killed more than 1,000 rogues under Li Zicheng's command, and the losses of the white pole soldiers were also very large, with nearly 1,000 casualties, to say that Li Zicheng had just entered Sichuan, he was not familiar with the terrain, he could not get any support, and he still had such a strong combat ability, he really did not expect it, he had fought with Zhang Xianzhong several times before, and he won the victory, thinking that the rogue was vulnerable, and this time many white pole soldiers really knew the strength of the rogue soldiers."

"The white pole soldier can realize this, and he can ensure that Li Zicheng is completely defeated, and the white pole soldier who pursues Li Zicheng needs to be especially careful, on the one hand, he needs to take advantage of the familiar terrain, and on the other hand, he must closely unite with many officials in Bozhou, so that he can completely block Li Zicheng's idea of escaping, as long as Li Zicheng is trapped in Banzhou, then he will have no way out, and it will be a matter of time before he is exterminated."

"My lord, the general is still a little worried, if Li Zicheng flees to Guizhou or Yunnan, wouldn't it be a big trouble."

Zheng Xunrui smiled and shook his head.

"Mrs. Qin, you still overestimate the ability of the Liukou, most of them are people from Shaanxi, Henan, Shanxi or Huguang, they are not familiar with the climate and environment of the mountainous areas, they are not familiar with the place, thinking of rebellion in these places, where is it so easy, and in the areas of Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan, there are a lot of Tusi and a strong sense of territory, after these Liukou arrive in those places, it is possible to experience difficulties, you can rest assured, they cannot survive in these places."

"My lord said this, Ben Jiang was relieved."

Zheng Xunrui is actually not at ease, he said this is nothing more than to comfort Qin Liangyu, the matter of Huang Taiji being called the emperor has been lingering in his mind, followed by Yao Ximeng's death, two things may have serious consequences, Huang Taiji is called the emperor, and it will immediately threaten Beizhili and Shandong, as for Yao Ximeng's death, I don't know if it will stimulate Wen Zhenmeng.
