The rebels in Geumsan seemed to have completely disappeared in one day.

Hao Yangping couldn't find his former companion.

Geng Zhongming supervised the army into the mountains to encircle and suppress, this was the first time he met the rebels who dared to provoke the Qing soldiers in the front. So I'd rather spend an extra half a day besieging it.

The rebels were pursued without even having time to catch their breath, and turned to meet them twice on the way, each time being routed and scattered in less than a quarter of an hour. They had no birds, and a handful of archers simply could not compete with the Qing soldiers.

Unable to resist, you can only run away.

After the Qing soldiers caught up with the rebels who fell along the way, they slashed down with a single sword, leaving no prisoners. Since you still have to be beheaded when you are escorted back to Jiexiu City, why not avoid trouble.

Hao Yangping wailed in the mountains and forests, he was indeed familiar with the mountain roads here, but the Qing soldiers also had people who were familiar with the mountain roads here to guide the way.

The rebels were originally here, where did Jin Xiaoding take them? Hao Yangping saw that there were only more than 1,000 people left behind him, and his heart was dripping blood. He poured all his anger on Jin Xiaoding.

"That coward only knows how to hide in the mountains and forests"

The only way to survive right now is in the mountains in front of you.

If he had to fight, Jin Xiaoding would choose the battlefield in the mountains, where even if he was defeated, he would have a chance to escape.

After entering the mountain, Geng Zhongming was very careful.

After half a day of fighting, he confirmed that the soldiers and horses in front of him were not bait, and if the rebels could pretend to be such a decoy, it would not be such a combat effectiveness.

Jin Xiaoding hid in the dense mountain forest, spying on two soldiers and horses chasing at the foot of the mountain. He retreated so deeply, if Qing Yu didn't chase after him, his trip could be regarded as an explanation to Jiexiu. In Shanxi, the most suitable battlefield is, of course, Taihang Mountain.

"The Qing soldiers are chasing after you," sixty-year-old Hao Yangyou reminded behind Jin Xiaoding. Geng Zhongming is now chasing and killing his people.

"I Can See"

Jin Xiaoding wasn't sure if the rabble under his command would be able to defeat the three thousand Qinglu, but no matter what time he waited, when he tried the first sword, he couldn't help but feel apprehensive in his heart.

"Sortie"

Twenty thousand rebels rushed out of the thorn forest, some with sticks, others carrying stones and rushing down the slope. Before sending troops to Jiexiu, Geng Zhongming inquired about the intelligence of Jinzhong, and there was no powerful rebel army here. But there is always an accident, and Jin Xiaoding only led his troops to arrive here the day before yesterday.

It is not far from the county seat of Jiexiu, and the rebels fought to the death. In addition to Jiexiu, the soldiers of the other battalions fought more fiercely. Geng Zhongming's soldiers and horses reminded them of their comrades who were slaughtered in their hometown.

Jin Xiaoding really wanted to encircle and annihilate this group of lonely Qing soldiers, especially the general who was riding a horse behind, but seeing that the soldiers and horses from all walks of life were only concerned about the pleasure of killing, he completely forgot his instructions before going to battle, and sighed secretly in his heart.

With such a righteous army, he can win a battle, and he can't have higher requirements. At the beginning, the thieves of Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng were also repeatedly defeated against the Ming officers and soldiers.

The rebels have been driving the Qing soldiers away from Jinshan, and Jin Xiaoding personally went to the front of the battle to give an order, ordering all soldiers and horses to retreat.

It was a modest victory, but it came at a good time.

The Qing soldiers slowed down their attack, and the rebels in Shanxi began to sing the name of Jin Xiaoding.

No matter how they fought for their lives, the Qing soldiers still won in Shanxi. Hundreds of thousands of rebels did not have a single leader, and they were broken separately. Dolgon trapped Jiang Zhuang in the city of Datong, for fear that the Datong Righteous Army and the Shanxi Righteous Army would become one.

Every few days, Jin Xiaoding wrote down the battle situation in Shanxi in a letter and sent it to Zhai Zhe in Huguang.

Although there are messengers connecting the north and south of the river, there is no stable communication channel. Some messengers may be captured by the Qing captives, so Jin Xiaoding only writes about the changes in the situation in various places, and never reveals his thoughts. He believed that the general understood what he meant, and that he would do his best to end the Huguang War and march into Shanxi.

The lake is as wide as Shanxi, but the host and guest are replaced.

He Tengjiao led the army to enter Yuezhou Mansion, and Du Yinxi led 100,000 troops to besiege Jingzhou City, while Zuo Ruo led the army to a stalemate in Hanyang Mansion. There were 10,000 defenders in Yuezhou, 25,000 in Jingzhou, 20,000 defenders in Hanyang City, and 35,000 soldiers led by Luck Dehun outside the city.

The Qing court was at a disadvantage in all three battlefields, and Hong Chengchou hoped that the regent Dolgon would pacify Shanxi as soon as possible and rush to the aid of Huguang.

Zhai Zhe stayed in Wuchang Mansion most of the time, but he did not live in the mansion, but handed over the civil affairs of Wuchang to the staff of the army.

Fan Yongdou and Zhao Yucheng spent eight days on the same boat before finally arriving here.

As soon as the passenger boat on which the two were riding docked, Fang Jin was already waiting on the shore and led the two directly into Zhai Zhe's residence

Both of them suddenly received Zhai Zhe's order, and they were looking forward to coming to Wuchang.

Zhao Yucheng knew Fan Yongdou's identity, and originally thought that Zhai Zhe would summon Fan Yongdou first, but he didn't expect Zhai Zhe to summon the two at the same time.

Facing the two at the same time, Zhai Zhe naturally became more cordial to Fan Yongdou.

"Brother Fan, don't come unharmed"

Fan Yongdou saluted respectfully: "Meet the general"

Zhao Yucheng was stunned and followed to see him.

Zhai Zhe did not continue to be polite, excessive modesty was rude to others.

"I have called you for two important things."

"First, I want to establish a spy network in Jiangbei, I know that Brother Fan has connections and subordinates in the north, please Brother Fan hand over the relationship to Zhao Yucheng."

Fan Yongdou hesitated for a moment and replied, "Obey"

"Zhao Yucheng, from today on, you no longer belong to the dark camp" Zhai Zhe threw a thunderbolt at Zhao Yucheng again, "Your task is to cooperate with the Fan Dongjia and establish contact with the rebel army in Shanxi." If you have any news, tell me directly"

Zhao Yucheng was so excited that he arched his hand and said, "Obey the order"

In one year, he went from a landed talent to a general, and became a position similar to a factory guard in the General's Mansion. He loved it, he had a deft nose and could smell danger in the air.

"General" Zhao Yucheng agitated with his deflated cheeks, "I have important news to tell. ”

"Speak"

"There are people in Nanjing who are not honest and take the scholars of the Fushe as the place of handover, and the banks of the Qinhuai River as the handover place." Zhao Yucheng peeked at Zhai Zhe's expression, plucked up his courage and said, "It involves General Xiao of the Beijing camp." ”

Zhai Zhe waved his hand and ordered Fan Yongdou to retreat for the time being. Ji Hong never mentioned this to him.

"The general knows that Mrs. Xiao has a good sister who is Qian Qianyi's concubine and Liu Ru, who is famous in the south of the Yangtze River

Zhai Zhe nodded silently, with his trust in Xiao Zhiyan, he should have stopped Zhao Yucheng from talking, but he didn't.

"Liu Ru almost didn't wait four or five days, he would go to the General Military Mansion to meet Mrs. Xiao, and the rest of the time he spent in Qinhuai Hefang to meet with Hou Fangyu and other scholars of the Restoration Society." Zhao Yucheng slowed down his tone, and every word was clear, "Half a month ago, a eunuch from the palace appeared in Hefang. ”

"Oh," Zhai Zhe expressed obvious interest.

"Liu Ru is very well-connected in Jiangnan, she has old friends with Governor Chen of Jiangnan, and her husband Qian Qianyi was the teacher of Zheng Sen, the commander of the Beijing camp."
