Chen Wang only stayed in Shiquan for about a month before he left the city and returned to Hanzhong.

After the Hanzhong meeting and the generals, he led the troops to the west again, to the west of Hanzhong Province.

The deadline for the March Suppression of the thieves has passed, and the punishment of the imperial court has been issued, and a large number of officials have been cut and suspended, demoted, and reduced.

Chen Wang is naturally among them, but he may only be the commander of the guards, and he has captured and killed Gao Yingxiang before, and he can be regarded as an outstanding achievement along the way.

Therefore, it did not drop much, and the deputy commander-in-chief and the commander were all saved, and the punishment given was to cut the salary and suspend him, and to handle the affairs of suppressing the thieves under the responsibility of guilt.

Cao Wenzhao, He Renlong, Zuo Guangxian, these generals who followed Hong Chengchou all the way to suppress were punished in the end, and they were all demoted to three levels, and they were guilty of handling the affairs of suppressing thieves.

And Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting were also reprimanded, punished and demoted, reduced their ranks, and made meritorious contributions with their crimes.

To be honest, punishments such as demotion and demotion are not too severe, but they are still somewhat dissatisfied.

There was hardly a moment to stop the pursuit all the way, but all this was ignored by the people above, and the crime was directly investigated and punished.

It is no longer an overnight time for the rogue to bring disaster to the world, and he Yang Sichang directly set a deadline for the suppression of thieves in March, but he completely ignored the actual situation.

It is absolutely false to say that there is no dissatisfaction in their hearts, and all the generals who have been punished are dissatisfied in their hearts, and they have begun to disobey some orders.

To tell the truth, Yang Sichang is excellent in terms of planning and intelligence.

But it may be because he was born too high, far away from the mortal world, and didn't know the suffering of the world, so he made many mistakes, and finally single-handedly buried the originally good situation.

……

Hong Chengchou's order was also changed half a month ago, originally only needed to garrison Qipanguan, and later changed to garrison Qipanguan, and the two places of Luoyang blocked all roads into Hanzhong Mansion from the west.

Chen Wang then divided his troops into two routes, and asked Zhou Yumao to lead the headquarters battalion, and the three thousand headquarters of the second infantry battalion led by Hu Zhiyi to garrison Luoyang, with a total of 4,000 people.

He led the 3,000 headquarters of the 1st Infantry Battalion and the 1,500 headquarters of the 1st Cavalry to Qipanguan.

Qipanguan, located at the throat of the Sichuan-Shaanxi junction, is known as the first pass of Western Qin.

This is the only road hub connecting Sichuan to the north of the Qinling Mountains, and there are Qipan Pass Signals at the head of Qipanling, and there are three forts, and the tiger is located in the mountains.

But now, Qipanguan has turned into a mound of ruins, in March, Li Zicheng led the army all the way south to attack Qipanguan, stormed for three days and nights, broke the pass city, destroyed the forts, the guards of the pass will be killed and missing, as many as 1,379 people, the rest of the people are all defeated.

The guerrilla Li Pingen was killed in battle, and 13 generals below the guerrilla level were beheaded.

"There is no allocation of funds to rebuild the pass, nor is there any allocation of people, just repair it on the basis of the original pass."

Chen Wang restrained his horse and scanned the surrounding mountains and roads.

"The practice every five days was changed to one practice every ten days, and the rest of the time was to dig a few more trenches on the road up the mountain."

"Fix the three turrets and fill all the firing cannons."

The current Chen Wang is no longer the one who didn't know how to arrange troops when he first arrived.

It has been more than two years since he became a guerrilla after the Battle of Chunhua to now as the deputy chief soldier of Hanzhong Town.

Marching and arranging, encampment, these foundations have long been familiar with the heart.

Now he only needs to arrive at a place, and as long as he looks at the surrounding terrain, Chen Wang can judge where it is suitable to set up artillery, where it is suitable to set up camp, and where it is suitable for defense and attack.

"Yes."

This time, the three thousand commanders of the first infantry battalion who followed Chen Wang were Hu Zhili, Chen Ming, and Chen De, all of whom were born in the Chen and Hu clans.

The three of them received the order, and immediately took their respective guards to dispatch troops and dig trenches to repair the wall.

Soon the barracks on the hill began to boil, and groups of soldiers walked out of the barracks under the leadership of their respective flag officers.

In this era, there were no exclusive sappers, and when building fortifications, they basically went into battle together.

After all, some of the current buildings and fortifications do not require high military skills, nor do they need to use any good professional skills, as long as they have the strength to do so.

Chen Wang is not prepared to change the current military establishment too much, although he is now familiar with the military, but the more he understands many things, the more he can find his own shortcomings.

"Big brother, didn't Inspector Hong lead his troops south to pursue, there are still about seven or eight thousand people left in Guangyuan and Jiange, how can they not fight Qipanguan, there is no need to be so urgent."

Chen Gong yawned and said listlessly.

"Regardless of whether it is possible for the rogues to come, since they are ordered, they must be faithful."

Chen Wangmu looked at the scene under the mountain without squinting, and said indifferently.

"In case of the arrival of Kou Zhen, it will not be unguarded."

Chen Gong's cheeks couldn't help twitching, he hadn't forgotten what Chen Wang said in Dingjun Mountain.

At that time, Chen Wang said that "the troubled times are in all directions, and if there are soldiers, they are the king of grass", and Chen Wang began to plan from that time.

Until now, he has been raising troops in Tuntian, Hanzhong Prefecture, and rectifying the Ordnance Bureau, he has seen the continuous expansion of his power and the continuous innovation of his armaments.

"Brother, if you hadn't had a showdown with us in Dingjun Mountain, I would have really believed your nonsense now."

Chen Gong raised his hand, rubbed his temples, and said a little speechlessly.

"yes......"

Chen Wangqing coughed, and was exposed by Chen Gong, and he also felt a little embarrassed, and he also subconsciously said something loyal.

Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting, and Cao Wenzhao are all human beings, and they often deal with these people, so Chen Wang naturally does not dare to slack off.

Now that the character of a loyal minister has been established, he can only continue to act according to this character.

has been acting for a long time, and sometimes the words that are subconsciously said are completely in line with the identity, but there is a feeling of deceiving others and deceiving themselves first.

"The soldiers are in danger, and there must be no luck on the battlefield?"

Chen Wang's face was pale, changed the topic, and taught a lesson.

"Now you are only a thousand and don't care, but in the future, you will definitely lead an army alone, and when the time comes, you will be so reckless and imprudent, how can I rest assured that I will send you out."

"Stop, stop."

Chen Gong raised his horsewhip and waved his hand again and again.

"The responsibility of leading the troops will be handed over to Brother Yi and Brother Li, I really can't lead the soldiers."

Chen Gong was a little helpless, he really didn't want to lead the troops, but Chen Wang always wanted to train him to lead the troops.

"Trapping in a charge, cutting generals and capturing the flag, I can do it, as long as you don't let me lead the troops, don't let me read and write, everything is easy to say."

Chen Gong felt a headache when he thought of the task assigned by Chen Wang, it seemed that Chen Wang was still going to carry out some literacy classes in the army, and what kind of books did they have to learn such as "Officers' Drill Code" and "Training Minutes".

He was already a headache when he went to school in the clan studies, and now that he is a soldier, he still has to read and learn words, so it is better to give him a knife directly.

"General Xiao Cao hasn't read these books, he will also lead troops to fight, and his military exploits are listed in the first place along the way, is it possible that he can't bring soldiers and fight without these books?"

Chen Gong complained helplessly, he really didn't understand why Chen Wang always liked to open any literacy classes and schools.

In the two health centers, there are also schools to teach people to listen, speak, read and write, and what engineering schools are built behind them to teach people how to work and make iron.

Now there are plans to introduce those literacy classes in the army, and the officers will also study and study.

"Then you're really wrong."

"There are several military books in my study that were given by General Xiao Cao, you don't think that others are really illiterate and don't read, right?"

Chen Wang glanced at Chen Gong, there were really few of these battalion generals in the late Ming Dynasty who couldn't read big characters, and the senior officers of the guard army not only knew how to read, but even dabbled in books such as the art of war.

In the Ming Dynasty, the style of learning and literature was extremely prosperous, and there were special health schools in the health centers, and there were also special schools in the townships.

In addition to the schools run by the government, there are also many private schools, which are basically organized by local villagers.

However, all the larger clans basically have a clan study, and the children in the clan will basically read books for a period of time.

Although I can't get into the children's school and can't get into the show, I can at least know a lot of words, and I won't be illiterate who can't read big words.

"This ......"

Chen Gong was originally a little unconvinced, but when he heard Chen Wang mention Cao Bianjiao, he quickly died down.

Originally, in the army, most people were Cao Bianjiao's example, and Chen Gong was naturally no exception, he felt that he might really need to read those military books and learn those drill codes.

Seeing the change in Chen Gong's expression, Chen Wang also withdrew his gaze.

Fortunately, Chen Gong didn't know that Zuo Liangyu couldn't read big characters, otherwise he would really have nothing to do with Zuo Liangyu to top it.

Now Zuo Liangyu is not the "long-legged general" after that, since he was transferred to Henan, he has made great achievements all the way, and he has been defeated in a row, Zhang Xianzhong, and his momentum is like the sky.

I'm afraid that Liukou's top list, it won't take long to see Zuo Liangyu's name on it.

"By the way, big brother, do you think Li Zicheng can escape this time?"

Chen Gong consciously changed the topic and asked the question he was most concerned about.

Li Zicheng led his troops to break through the pass and enter Baoning Mansion this time, and went all the way south to break Guangyuan, and then broke the more than 6,000 Sichuan troops who intended to intercept at Jiange.

In the first battle of the Sword Pavilion, the general Zhou Minghong was killed, and more than 30 people were killed in the guerrilla and below generals.

Hou Liangzhu hurriedly refused to fight in Mianzhou, but was also defeated, so he could only retreat to Mianzhu.

"Escape ......"

Hearing Li Zicheng's name, Chen Wang couldn't help frowning.

At this time, it had been almost two months since Li Zicheng entered northern Sichuan.

Sun Chuanting led the troops to Gongchang Mansion and took over the defense areas of Cheng and Jie.

Wenxian and Baishui, the passages from Sichuan to Gongchang Mansion, Sun Chuanting all arranged heavy guards, and it was impossible for Li Zicheng to retreat from these two places again.

The troops of southern Sichuan and western Sichuan are converging towards Mianzhu, and the eastern Sichuan army is stuck in Tongchuan Mansion, and Hong Chengchou leads his troops all the way south through Baoning Mansion, step by step, and is forced to go.

Li Zicheng can now be said to be surrounded in the area of Mianzhou and Jiangyou, and the roads in the east, west, north and south have been blocked, and it seems that he has really become a turtle in the urn.

But I don't know why, Chen Wang always has a feeling that this time, Li Zicheng seems to be able to save the day......

The plot of Sichuan will not be very long, and the main plot is in the north

Lao Chen is going to King Qin this time
