Xu Xianchun's army rested for a few days in Shaanxi, and then set off again.

This time, their target was the Wandering Army in the hands of Wang Er, the leader of the Wandering Army, and Wang Daliang.

Li Changzhou and Hong Chengchou watched these troops leave.

When the army left, it was as neat as when they came, in three columns, marching incessantly, and the middle of the column carried more than a dozen artillery pieces wrapped in tarpaulin.

There are many plains in Shaanxi, and it is not as difficult as imagined to carry large artillery.

Especially after Zhu Youxiao took the Chahar Ministry, they obtained a large number of strong cattle that could be used to pull artillery.

More than a dozen big oxen were dragging an artillery piece in front, and at this speed of travel, it can be said that in the army of the Ming Dynasty, it is already quite good.

When Xu Xianchun's army completely left their field of vision, Li Changzhou turned his head to look at Hong Chengchou.

"General Hong, it's time for you to do something.

Hong Chengchou nodded, went down and returned to the small barracks, gathering his three thousand troops.

Among these 3,000 troops, everyone's combat ability is very strong, even compared to the border army in Liaodong back then.

It's just that now these armies, who were supposed to fight for the Ming Dynasty and wore the Ming Dynasty's battle clothes and armor, have changed their outfits.

The army had been changed in disarray, mostly civilian clothes, but still had armor on them.

This is not a particularly unusual thing, those exile army defeated some imperial army and captured some armor, so the exile army also has armor.

Then they are not afraid to put on armor, what's the problem.

It's just that this Hong Chengchou looked at the spears and knives in the hands of these troops, as well as the three-eyed guns, and also sighed.

As for their spears and knives, they used to think they were good things.

But after this Hong Chengchou got used to the equipment of the guards, he felt that these knives and spears were no longer fragrant.

If you can replace it with those muskets and artillery of the Guards, it will be really powerful.

Hong Chengchou has already made up his mind, this time he will have to capture some muskets, preferably some cannons.

When the time comes, Hong Chengchou will take a look again, is there a way to get a batch of bullets from the Xinfeng Arsenal that can be used for the muskets and artillery of the Guards.

Of course, there must also be shells, after all, this musket artillery has no bullets and no shells, that is, burning sticks.

Hong Chengchou didn't believe that there were no rats in an arsenal as big as Xinfeng Arsenal.

As long as he is willing to spend money, he is not afraid that he will not be able to get what they want from the Xinfeng factory.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how are we doing to you? You should know very well that now that I am taking you out to fight, can we trust you? ”

These people are actually equivalent to Hong Chengchou's family, and they receive military salaries from the imperial court, but they are issued from Hong Chengchou's hands, and their loyalty to Hong Chengchou naturally needs not be said.

On the spot, a hundred households stood up.

"What are you talking about, General?"

"We people have taken the money from your hand, so that we can have the money to feed our families and have the money to eat."

"If it weren't for the general, we would have been like the outcasts in the wilderness."

"If you ask us this question today, isn't that just a slap in the face? Serve the general, never regret dying! ”

This person was actually bought by Hong Chengchou in advance.

When the others heard this, they raised their weapons and shouted, "No regrets!" No regrets! ”

Hong Chengchou nodded and said, "Let's go!" ”

It was only half a day after Xu Xianchun's army left the city that Hong Chengchou's army also began to set off from the city and drove in the direction of Xu Xianchun's army.

At this time, Xu Xianchun's army deputy general Xu An caught up with Xu Xianchun and Wei Zhongxian on the way to the march and reported a message to them.

"General, we have found some fast horses on the periphery of the army, monitoring our movements, should we deal with them."

Xu Xianchun and Wei Zhongxian glanced at each other, and the two of them had the same reaction in their hearts, I am afraid that the people who are monitoring them are not those exile soldiers, but Li Changzhou and their people.

After all, such a good war horse, those homeless troops may not have it, but Hong Chengchou and Li Changzhou can really get it.

"Grandpa Wei, how do you say this matter should be handled."

This Wei Gonggong waved his hand and said, "General Xu is joking, you are the chief officer of these armies, how can there be a reason that my old fellow has such a long hand." ”

Xu Xianchun nodded, he just politely asked this Wei Zhongxian.

After asking, he turned his head back, looked at Xu An next to him and said, "Don't worry about them, but you have to be careful, if my prediction is right, those outcasts will definitely come to attack us, so that the army can follow closely and be ready to fight at any time." ”

When Xu An heard this, he gave a military salute and retreated.

Then Xu Xianchun, you sent someone to find Na Li Na again.

This Li Na was the general of the Beijing camp that year, that is, the general who took the lead in betraying Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chen, and opened the city gate for His Majesty in the Beijing Incident.

He had joined the Guards and became the commander of a cavalry regiment under Xu Xianchun.

Then Li Na came to Xu Xianchun's side and respectfully saluted him.

Xu Xianchun nodded and said, "This time, the Wandering Army will definitely come to attack us." ”

"There are a lot of them, and they may be able to get information from some quarters about our marching routes, so we have to be on guard."

Li Na did not panic when he heard this, but showed a look of eagerness.

"General, since this is the case, please let your subordinates lead the cavalry regiment forward for thirty miles, as soon as their people appear, the three thousand brothers under them can immediately exterminate them."

Who knew that Xu Xianchun also shook his head and said, "You don't need to do this thing, General Ben has already asked Xu An's people to do this." ”

"You should take your cavalry regiment and give General Ben to the rear of the army, and be responsible for the guard of the front and rear, and if there is an enemy army in the rear, slaughter them for me."

Li Na was also anxious on the spot, "General, I'm afraid that the possibility of enemy troops appearing in the rear is not very large, so it's better to let us go to the front." ”

Xu Xianchun's face turned grim when he heard this, and he was a little dissatisfied, "Should General Li think about what you just said." ”

Li Na was also shocked in his heart, among the guards, disobeying military orders, that is, one word, "Death." ”

He didn't dare to disobey Xu Xianchun's order, so he had to arch his hand and say, "Obey." Then he led his cavalry troops out of the army.

When the army had completely passed, they remained at the end of the guard in charge of the rear.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
