Chapter 447 Good news spreads frequently
Zhang Hui and Guan He are both red people, but he really doesn't have a good impression of Guan He, he is a scholar and a literati, and Guan He is a bandit, a bandit leader who kills people without blinking, Zhang Hui looks down on him in his heart.
If it weren't for the fear that Guan He would indiscriminately kill innocents in the city and hurt the people, he would not have bothered to come to warn him.
After listening to his words, Guan He was secretly surprised, he really didn't expect that the military discipline of the Jin Army would be so strict, even adults would be punished, and it was a heavy punishment for the head of the hair.
Seeing that he was silent in thought, Zhang Hui sighed and said: "General Guan, don't forget your situation in the Jin Army, you are still just a general, far from the trust of adults, and you don't know how many Jin people you don't like, once you make a mistake and are caught, I'm afraid General Guan will fall into a dangerous situation from which you will never recover!"
These words made Guan He gasp, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that what Zhang Hui said was not unreasonable. As soon as he defected to the Jin Army, he grabbed the gold head and made meritorious contributions again and again, who knew that those Jin generals would not be jealous!
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned over and dismounted, bowed respectfully and deeply to Zhang Hui, and said: "What Mr. Zhang Hui said is very true, I have been taught in Xia!" After a pause, he said again: "I wonder if Mr. Zhang Hui has time tonight, so I will have a few drinks together?"
Guan He is a smart person, through the conversation with Zhang Hui, he immediately realized that he was lonely in the Jin country, and if he wanted to achieve great things, it was far from enough to rely on his own ability, and he also needed someone to help, and Zhang Hui, who was also a red man and had excellent intelligence, was the best candidate.
Divide is weak, and together is strong. This idea is the foundation of the formation of the faction.
When Zhang Hui saw that Guan He had taken the initiative to invite him to drink, how could he not understand Guan He's intentions? Now that the Jin court was dominated by the Jin family, the Chi people also had a place. Relatively speaking, there are too few Red officials and generals, and they also seem to be alone, and it is not a bad thing to unite.
Even if he didn't like Guan He in his heart, Zhang Hui still nodded with a smile and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
Guan He was overjoyed, and his eyes lit up. said: "Mr. Zhang Hui is a scholar, and he is just a reckless man, and I hope Mr. Zhang Hui will mention more in the future." ”
Zhang Hui smiled: "General Guan is too polite. ”
Whether it is out of hypocrisy or forced by the times. In short, Zhang Hui and Guan He, who were both literate and martial, still came together, and the closeness of the two of them also became the prototype of the Chiren faction in the Jin Dynasty.
In the evening of the same day, Lin Haotian held a banquet in the city lord's mansion in Jin'an. Have a drink with your ministers and generals. Celebrate the success of the first battle of the Battle of Pegasus.
In the city lord's mansion, the lamp ball torch, the bright pine pine, the laughter, the cup and the lamp, a lively scene, it is hard to imagine, just two hours ago. There are still corpses everywhere here, and they are a mess washed in the blood of the Jin army.
Wait until the wine has passed three rounds. After the five flavors of the dish, Lin Haotian cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Taking Jin'an is just the beginning of the battle of Tianma County, next, our army will drive straight in, take Peicheng and Tongchuan, and then take the county town Tongxia in one fell swoop, and level the Red Army in Tianma County!"
Yang Xiu and Dong Sheng, who had not made achievements in the Battle of Jin'an, both stood up, intervened to give a salute, and said loudly: "My lord, the general at the end of the city is willing to be a pioneer!"
Without waiting for Lin Haotian to speak, Guan He also stood up and intervened: "My lord, the last general is also willing to be a pioneer!"
If it was Yang Xiu and Dong Sheng who asked for Ying, the generals of the Jin Dynasty had no opinion, and seeing that Guan He also stood up and asked for Ying, the Jin generals looked at each other, and then got up and said: "The last general is willing to be a pioneer!"
"The last general is willing to be a pioneer!"
Seeing that the morale of the generals was high and they were scrambling to be the first to fight, Lin Haotian laughed, and his pride was overflowing.
Now, he is indeed very proud, because the battle is going too smoothly, at the current rate, it will not take more than a month to be able to occupy the entire Tianma County, and the Jin Kingdom has taken a big step forward in swallowing up the Red Kingdom.
"I'm really looking forward to it!" Looking forward to the scene where Jiankang himself and Shi Huai were fighting, Lin Haotian sighed with a smile, and then asked Chu Lianyu: "When will the additional soldiers of our army arrive?" After continuous battles, the Fourth Army Corps removed the dead and wounded, but there were barely 70,000 soldiers in battle, and new soldiers needed to be filled.
Chu Lianyu said: "The additional troops have left Shuangfeng City, and it will take half a month to reach Jin'an at the earliest!"
Lin Haotian shook his head and said, "Half a month? I can't wait that long." With that, he ordered: "Gu Liangyun listens to the order!"
"The end will be!" Gu Liangyun arched his hand.
"You lead 20,000 soldiers to take Peicheng, and before you fight Peicheng, you can fly multiple roads first, sweep away the villages and towns around Peicheng, and completely cut off foreign aid from Peicheng!"
"The last general obeys!"
"Guan He, Tong Lei obey orders!"
"The last general!" Guan He and Tong Lei both came out.
"The two of you will lead 20,000 soldiers to take Tongchuan, and before you fight Tongchuan, you will also sweep away the surrounding villages and towns, and get rid of future troubles forever!"
"The last general obeys!"
Subsequently, Lin Haotian sent Yang Xiu, Dong Sheng, Bai Phosphorus and other generals to attack the main towns through which they passed through separately.
Lin Haotian dispatched all his generals and 70,000 soldiers in one go, preparing to advance in unison in the next battle, firing thousands of arrows, so that the Red Army could not find the focus of its own attack, thus disrupting the Red Army's defense.
For his tactics, the Jin generals and advisers had no opinion, Chu Lianyu and Bi Wen also thought it was feasible, and the Jin army, which had just captured Jin'an, began to move again under the mobilization of Lin Haotian, and actively prepared for the continuation of the southward invasion.
Lin Haotian didn't know that the battle of Jin'an became the last straw that crushed the court of the Red Kingdom, and when he learned that Jin'an was lost, the Jin army fully invaded Tianma County, Shi Huai could no longer be calm, Tianma County is now the lifeblood of the Red Kingdom, Tianma County is lost, and the 500,000 Red Army fighting outside will all become lone soldiers, so what is it?
At this time, Shi Huai could no longer take care of the annexation of Mu Country, nor the results achieved in Mu Country, so he urgently sent an order to the army in front of him, ordering them to retreat and quickly aid Tianma County.
Shi Huai's painful decision also became a turning point in the Jin-Chi War.
Lin Haotian dispatched all the generals under his command and the Fourth Army Corps, leaving only Shao Lin, Chu Lianyu, Bi Wen and a cadre of Wenchen by his side, as well as less than 5,000 personal guards.
The next day, Lin Haotian set off, left Jin'an, and went deep into the hinterland of Tianma County.
Since the Fourth Army was one step ahead, when Lin Haotian's team went south, it did not encounter the Red Army, and the large and small villages and towns it passed through were all wreckage after fierce battles. Hundreds or thousands of corpses of the Red Army were piled up in chaos outside the villages and towns, and on the treetops, rows of hanged corpses of the Red Army could often be seen.
Along the way, he also listened to the good news from all walks of life, Lin Haotian was very satisfied with the performance of the generals, and in just one day, he had conquered three towns in a row and conquered more villages, which can be called a success.
That night, Lin Haotian and his entourage walked to Guangping Town.
Guangping Town was conquered by the Fourth Army Corps led by Gu Liangyun at noon today, the scale of the battle was not large, more than 1,000 defenders in the town were wiped out, and now the town has returned to calm, like other places, the corpses of the Red Army were piled up outside the town, in order to avoid trouble, the Red Army who were captured and refused to surrender were all hanged at the entrance of the town.
Gu Liangyun led a large group of men and horses, leaving only more than 100 Jin soldiers to clean up the battlefield, take care of the wounded, and register door to door, counting the residents of the town.
The commander of the Jin army who stayed behind had heard the news that the adults were going to pass through the town, and drove out a large family in the town early, vacated the house, and then took his subordinates out of the town to greet him.
After seeing Lin Haotian, Captain Jin hurriedly knelt on the ground to salute. Lin Haotian waved his hand, motioned for him to get up, and then asked, "What's your name?"
"Back to my lord, the villain's name is Qingran!"
"En!" Lin Haotian nodded and said, "Ben Shuai is going to stay in this town tonight, do you have a place to stay?"
"Yes! The villains are ready. Captain Jin hurriedly replied: "The house is the largest in the town, and the environment inside looks very comfortable. ”
Lin Haotian smiled and said, "Very good." ”
Led by the captain of the Jin army, Lin Haotian and his party came to the house in the town.
As Captain Jin said, if this house is placed in the big city, it is nothing at all, but in Guangping Town, it is the largest and most luxurious, the house has a vestibule, an atrium and a backyard, although the sparrows are small, they are complete. (To be continued......)
