Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 552 Shanxi Dispatch of Troops (Fourth)

Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, also received the news that Zhangjiakou was burned, and he felt quite relieved.

He started a good relationship with Xuanda Governor Zhang Zongheng.

However, after Xu Dingchen took office, he made frequent tricks. Not only did he not help the officers and soldiers stabilize the front, but he helped the hammer bandit He Jinzhao continue to gain a firm foothold in Shanxi and expand his strength.

This matter made Zhang Zongheng very angry!
Why not do nothing like the former governor Song Yintong, but the situation is not so bad.

Xu Dingchen also asked Zhang Zongheng to send more troops to take advantage of the fact that Shanxi bandits gathered in the south to attack King Shen of Lu'an Mansion and regain Shanxi Town. Zhang Zongheng scolded him angrily.
With just one mouth, one hundred thousand soldiers can come!

What's more, you have done so many things, have you ever done anything that is beneficial to the court?
Everything is congratulating Jinzhao to the hammer bandit, are you, Xu Dingchen, He Jinzhao's internal response in the court?

With you here, the imperial court will not be able to regain Shanxi, but will implicate the surrounding provinces instead.

Xu Dingchen felt that he had worked so hard to serve the court, but he was publicly reprimanded by Zhang Zongheng, who was not doing practical things and was in a high position, and framed himself!

The two had a big fight, and their relationship was on fire.

Xu Dingchen was very envious of Cao Wenzhao's success in suppressing bandits in Shaanxi, and always wanted to transfer him to Shanxi. After all, the two had contact before, and they were ruthless and good at fighting!

He especially carefully studied Cao Wenzhao's tactics, that is, not sticking to the defense of one city and one pool, using movement to control movement, chasing and intercepting, causing great damage to the rebels in Shaanxi.

There are even folk songs being sung, there is a Cao in the army, and the hearts of the western thieves are shaken when they hear it!
Xu Dingchen specially wrote a memorial to Chongzhen.

He said that there were 30 thieves in Shaanxi who had poisoned Qin for several years. Relying on the might of the emperor, five or six out of ten were wiped out on the spot, and two or three out of ten were disbanded.

There are only one or two thieves left in Shaanxi, less than 3, and they will be put down in a short time.

It is hoped that His Majesty can transfer Cao Wenzhao to enter the land of Jin and command the generals of Jin, so as to calm down Shanxi's southward and northward hammer.

The two thieves were already at odds in order to compete for the position of the leader of the anti-thief alliance. This is why Gao Chuangzei ventured into Beijing alone to prove himself.

Zijinliang's people entered Henan, and the hammer bandits remained motionless. He Jinzhao might be recuperating from his injuries, and this is an excellent opportunity to wipe out the hammer bandits.

In order to keep Wushamao's habit of telling lies, the Beijing officials sent to Fengjiang as big officials have been deeply ingrained.

Hong Chengchou, the governor of the three sides, was not as optimistic as he was. Xu Dingchen just wanted Chongzhen to agree to his request and let Cao Wenzhao, a capable general, be sent to Shanxi.

However, Chongzhen believed the words of Xu Dingchen, governor of Shanxi, and felt that his arrangement had finally seen results!

Both Zijinliang and Gao Chuangzei are doing trouble.

The only hammer bandit, He Jinzhao, did nothing wrong, which just happened to prove that he was defeated in the fight for the position of leader and no longer partnered with the other rebels.

It would be great if Gao Yingxiang returned to Shanxi Town on the grassland and could merge with He Jinzhao!

Therefore, Chongzhen evaluated the war situation in Shanxi as starving people, not as good as other bandits. After questioning Hong Chengchou, he transferred Cao Wenzhao to Shanxi to put down the hammer bandits in one fell swoop.

Chongzhen couldn't see the situation clearly, but there were always people in the court who could see clearly.

When Xu Dingchen said this, it was no different from Yuan Chonghuan's five-year Pingliao. They were all talking about lenient grammar, so worry about it!

But no one took the initiative to tell Chongzhen about this.

Who made His Majesty not believe us, but started to increase the eunuch's power.

The real situation in Shanxi was not as simple as what Xu Dingchen boasted. Just because he knew about the hammer bandits, he hadn't done basic information exploration, and he was always in his own imagination.

Instead, Shanxi thieves spread the flames of war to the two provinces of Hebei and Henan.

The governor of Shanxi sent more troops to guard the city, hoping that the city would be safe so that he could escape responsibility for the accident.

At least on the surface, the counties and cities in Shanxi still belong to the imperial court, but the vast countryside outside has all voted for the hammer bandits.

They don't know that the thieves "plundered and satiated in the wild", so why should they attack the city?

It's called Fangkou, but it's actually Zongkou.

Xuanda Governor Zhang Zongheng is not the emperor who sits in the imperial city and reviews memorials.

He has worked in Xuanda for many years. Wang Xiangqian is called Governor of Xuanda, but he is too old, and Zhang Zongheng handles everything.

Xu Dingchen's words couldn't be hidden from Zhang Zongheng, and after being criticized by him, Xu Dingchen hated Zhang Zongheng instead.

The two impeached each other, and Chongzhen was going to send an eunuch to monitor things such as food, soldiers and horses, side walls, and rewards.

Now Xu Dingchen is waiting for the arrival of the eunuch. Things in Zhangjiakou are not simple. Compared with the words of his courtiers, the emperor is more likely to believe the words of his servants.

The office of the governor of Shanxi is in Datong, not Shanxi.

Jiang Xiang, who was also in Datong Mansion, also received a letter from He Jinzhao, asking him to let go of the Great Wall and help him transport troops.

Seeing this letter, Jiang Xiang, who had been promoted to deputy commander of Datong, was taken aback.

Others didn't know what He Jinzhao was doing, but he guessed it right away.

There has been such a big commotion in the capital, can the robber Gao Yingxiang do it alone?

Who is most beneficial to burning Zhangjiakou?
Of course it's He Jinzhao!
Once the business route in Zhangjiakou was cut off, the merchant had to hold his nose and come to the mutual market point in Shanxi Town to trade with the Mongolians.

Jiang Xiang squeezed the letter in her hand, feeling as if it weighed a thousand catties.

Do you want to help He Jinzhao transport troops?
What the hell is he trying to do!
Jiang Xiang couldn't figure it out, but she knew that she was definitely not He Jinzhao's opponent. Regardless of his polite letter writing, the consequences would be serious if he refused.

The whole of Shanxi is covered with mountains and plains, stretching hundreds of miles, all of them are hammer bandits.

How many officers and soldiers can there be?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiang felt that if he passed through his own jurisdiction, he could just pass under the banner of the official army, and he had to escort him for a while, which was really not a good job.

Because it's so obvious!

But even if I don't agree, it's just a delay for them to go to the grassland, and there is not much benefit in hindering them.

The position of deputy commander had to be pushed up by him. I didn't cooperate with him, and some people wanted to cooperate with him.

When Jiang Xiang thought of He Jinchao, he could rush into the imperial city to kill the emperor!
If it doesn't work the first time, there is no guarantee that it will not succeed in the future.

The treasure should be bet and the bet should be bet.

done.

In today's world, the courageous ones are supported to death, and the timid ones are starved to death.

Jiang Xiang looked at the map of the Great Wall, and had to plan carefully, how to do this smoothly!
Ji Gui, the military adviser in Taiyuan City, finally received the transfer order from He Jinchao.

Before, they were all obsessed with the feat of He Jinzhao breaking into the capital to kill the emperor!

As soon as this incident happened, it was enough to prove that the lord they were following had the strength to rush into Beijing and seize the throne.

As the saying goes, if the Tartars can go, so can I!

We also entered the city of Beijing and even touched the imperial city.

The Jurchen Tartars didn't even touch the city walls outside Beijing!

Now, no one thinks that He Jinchao is just a grass-headed king from now on and cannot be an emperor!

Of course, this kind of thing is only spread among their trusted confidants.

Today Ji Gui received another transfer order from He Jinzhao, he opened it and hurriedly shouted:

"My lord has an order to let Liu Erhu and He Zan transfer a total of 6000 soldiers from the headquarters and [-] auxiliary soldiers to the Great Wall of Xuanfu in Datong, Shanxi, to Zhangjiakou, and transfer Liu Zongmin to guard Taiyuan."
