Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 173 He Jinzhao's Response (Second Change)

He Jinzhao, who was marching to Han Xinling, received the news from Gao Yigong.

He Jinchao reined in the reins: "The officers and soldiers in Shanxi move quickly."

"It's probably the new Shanxi governor who wants the new official to take office."

He Zan smiled at the side, civil servants, they all want to make some achievements.

"Why aren't these leading Mongols who are not familiar with the rules of officialdom?"

He Jinzhao expressed his understanding towards these people who wanted to be Daming's dogs.

After the Joseon Dynasty broke off its vassal relationship with Daming, it used the reign name of Chongzhen on some occasions until the early 20th century.

They even have to learn party struggle!
In short, Tianchao is good!

These Shanxi soldiers were obviously defeated for a while, and they didn't even retreat. Instead, they continued to guard the other side of Han Xinling and continued to resist.

Who gave them the courage?

He Jinzhao didn't even know if Chongzhen paid these people double wages, so they worked so hard!
As for the new governor of Shanxi, Song Yintong, who wanted to make a career, it was really unnecessary for He Jinzhao to persuade him.

After all, he will understand the truth of "doing more and making more mistakes, not doing better"!

Maybe the result would have been better if it had been done badly earlier.

The main reason is that his boss, Emperor Chongzhen, once found out that you are not easy to use.

Then your political career is almost over, and you can go home and take care of your children.

In short, the image of the emperor is not allowed to be flawed.

He Jinzhao jumped off his horse, took the map handed to him by his personal guards, spread it on the ox cart beside him, and watched it carefully.

"According to the performance of this guerrilla general named Baihu, it shows that the Ming army's military discipline is not bad.

At least there is no immediate collapse, we just have to hurry up, one more fight and they should be gone. "

He Zan nodded, the reinforcements from Taiyuan were the fastest to arrive no matter what.

The officers and soldiers cannot defend Han Xinling.

"As for the tens of thousands of troops led by Hu Dawei, based on their footsteps, it should be around [-] miles from Pingyao to Jiexiu.

With such a fast speed, I am afraid that they did not bring any food and grass, and they all ate in the counties.

It seems that they want to stop us outside Fenzhou and prevent us from continuing northward. "

He Zan also looked at the map after hearing He Jinzhao's words:

"Captain, why are you sure that the officers and soldiers will rush to Jiexiu instead of stopping us in Pingyao?"

"There are only a few roads to go north to Taiyuan. If he waits for work in Jiexiu and divides his troops to occupy the only crossing bridge, the Shitong Bridge, and the Guanziling area, it will become a triangle.

Whichever side we fight, we will be flanked by the other two sides. If I am a general in the Ming army, I must defend these two places.

If we have to go to Taiyuan, we can only cross Mianshan Mountain and enter Qinzhou. In the end, we spend a lot of time and experience to conquer Liaozhou and pass Yuci to enter Taiyuan.

In this way, we have to worry about the follow-up supply of food and grass, and he will have more time to deal with us.

By defending Jiexiu and other places, we can delay our journey northward, and only let us cause chaos in this area, minimizing losses as much as possible.

Once Jiexiu falls, he won't be able to stop us from going north. "

"Well, this Mongolian has a way of arranging troops. It's a pity to let him just be a general."

He Zan shook his head, he didn't like the Mongols.

Many veterans in the family are disabled from fighting the Mongols.

He Jinzhao retracted his finger pointing at the map and smiled:

"But I pulled the artillery. It's useless for him to defend the division and the bridge. I can bombard the Ming army across the bridge."

"Captain, then we will not go to Jiexiu, but take the same bridge as the teacher to cross Xiaoyi, take down Fenyang County, and then go to Taiyuan."

"No, I'm going to take the road of Jiexiu." He Jinzhao signaled the guards to roll up the map:

"I heard from Mr. Tang that several big merchants in Zhangjiakou are from Jiexiu, and they are very wealthy.

Among them is Fan Yongdou, I have a little impression of this person, I have to find him to sponsor! "

He Zan didn't understand what the captain said.

Why do you have to go head-to-head with the officers and soldiers? Is it really because Zhangjiakou is the hometown of businessmen?
impossible.

He Zan immediately denied this idea.

The captain's move must be to make the hammer bandits famous in Shanxi!
As long as the dog officers and soldiers meet the banner of hammer bandits, turn around and run away, or offer money and food on their own initiative.

This is the real purpose.

"Captain, there are more than ten thousand officers and men in the army."

"I also said that I have more than ten thousand troops!"

He Jinzhao got back on his horse and laughed, "How do you know that the ten thousand soldiers in the army are real?"

Hearing this, He Zan was happy, it was the truth.

If there were still [-] elite soldiers in Shanxi, would Zhang Honggong, the commander-in-chief of Shanxi, bring [-] elite soldiers to serve the king?

I will definitely bring more troops to strengthen the momentum.

Didn't you see that Yang He has assembled nearly 2 elite soldiers?
Even Gansu sent nearly [-] elite soldiers, but unfortunately there was a mutiny, and there were only a few thousand soldiers in the capital.

Shanxi only has 5000 people, so they will definitely be laughed at.

In some respects, military generals will laugh at you for not being as good as him, but will also be jealous that you live better than him.

"Report."

There was a sound of hooves coming from behind.

"Captain, the rest of the rebel leaders Bai Jiu'er, Sweeping King, Yingshanhong, Mantianxing, and Diandengzi each lead thousands of people to follow behind."

"Ok?"

He Jinzhao did not expect these people to follow.

Why don't they follow King Gao Chuang to make a fortune!

"Captain, they came just in time." He Zan said with a smile from the side:
"We claim to have more than [-] troops, and when the time comes to divide our troops, we will convince the dog officers and soldiers."

"Well, it doesn't matter why they came."

He Jinzhao also smiled, and lightly knocked on the horse's belly:

"Just use them as our flanks.

Go to Xiaoyi, enter Fenyang, pretend to go to Taiyuan from another road, and mobilize the arrangements of the officers and soldiers. "

This is the advantage of having a large number of people. They can be split up to make more arrangements with chess pieces, which will always confuse the eyes of the officers and soldiers and make them have no time to cope.

No matter how powerful they are, in short, the division of troops will not slow down their own pace.

As for Lingshi County, He Jinzhao didn't make any arrangements at all. The trend of the officers and soldiers seemed to give up at first glance, and it was definitely his way.

As long as you pass Han Xinling and walk for a while, you will be in Lingshi County.

"Go and reply to the leaders behind. I will lead the army to take the lead and entertain them in Lingshi County."

"Yes."

The messenger rode his horse back to tell the rest of the leaders.

In Gao Yigong's eager anticipation, He Jinzhao's large army finally arrived.

"Captain." Gao Yigong pleaded guilty and said, "This subordinate did not occupy Han Xinling in time."

"Okay, I just asked you to investigate and act as sentinel cavalry, so as not to be ambushed by the enemy."

He Jinzhao patted Gao Yigong on the shoulder: "Let's let you go to battle after less than a year of training. The loss is too great. I will feel sorry for you."
