Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 649 Protecting the Environment and Harming Neighbors (Fifth Change)

Li Zicheng, who was still in Henan, was shocked when he heard what his nephew Li Guo had seen and said.

"This is real?"

"Can I lie to you?"

Li Guo also couldn't understand He Jinzhao's behavior. From ancient times to the present, he knew that rebels had never followed his path.

The truth is that I have embarked on a path that makes others only shocked.

"He is too self-disciplined and too strict with himself!" Li Zicheng sighed:
"I hope that he can win many battles against the Shangguan Army. If I serve under Brother He, I will definitely admire him from the bottom of my heart and be willing to rebel with him to the end!"

"Yes."

Li Guo didn't understand what it means to lead an army by relying on the unique charm of a general.

This time he saw it.

Moreover, the people under He Jinchao's command and the Hammer Bandit soldiers were different from other rebels.

Everyone is able to live a good day, that is earned.

Like the Hammer Bandit soldiers and civilians, they are full of strong hope for their future days.

This situation is not found in other rebels.

"It's okay, if there is such a day, we might as well pretend to demote the army, and then choose the opportunity to run away and seek refuge with Brother He."

Li Zicheng laughed a few more times. After leading the army independently, he also had more thoughts.

In today's troubled times, who wouldn't want to take the opportunity to earn a fortune?
It's just that I, Li Zicheng, are facing more difficulties now.

Li Guo also smiled, even if he couldn't learn He Jinzhao's seven points, as long as he got three points, he would be able to look down on the rest of the rebel army.

Just relying on the relationship between their uncle and nephew and He Jinzhao, there is still a way out.

"Brother He's strategy is very appropriate for us. It's such a simple truth, but we haven't understood it thoroughly."

"Hahaha, why don't they rush into the capital to kill the dog emperor, and not us!" Li Guo pointed to his head: "Our brains can't keep up with his."

"Hahaha." Li Zicheng was not angry at all: "We have learned, and the brains of the officers and soldiers can't keep up with ours."

"Extremely so."

Li Guo giggled, this time he went to He Jinzhao's place to gain experience, but it was really useful.

"Let's walk around the officers and soldiers first, let's practice soldiers."

The rebels in Shanxi are divided into three waves.

Almost all of northern Shanxi fell into the hands of the hammer bandit He Jinchao, although many counties were still nominally under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

But Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, knew the real situation, and he called it the North Route Army here.

The East Route Army is in the area of ​​Lu'an Mansion. They want to take down King Shen and gain a lot of wealth like the hammer bandits.

The West Route Army is in the area of ​​Pingyang Mansion. These people are entrenched at the Yellow River Ferry. Their military discipline is corrupt, but they are easy to deal with.

Now that the three roads are in a hurry, Xu Dingchen has borrowed troops several times, trying to get rid of the hammer bandits.

He borrowed Guan Ning to general Cao Wenzhao, but Cao Wenzhao was severely injured by He Jinchao and fled to Shaanxi.

He also borrowed Wang Chengyin, the chief soldier of Yansui, to congratulate Jinchao, but Wang Chengyin was captured by He Jinchao, and most of his troops were sent to mine. In his opinion, Wang Chengyin escaped to Shaanxi by luck.

Xu Dingchen didn't give up, and he borrowed Lin Danhan's hand to destroy He Jinzhao. As a result, he lost the life of Tian Ming, the commander-in-chief of Daming Shanxi Town, and two of the three outer passes fell into He Jinzhao's hands.

Not only that, but he also helped He Jinzhao suppress Lin Danhan, making Lin Danhan take the initiative to offer his daughter to seek peace, and stabilized He Jinzhao with a fake jade seal.

It can be said that He Jinzhao was able to achieve such great results in Shanxi and the grasslands because the Shanxi Governor Xu Dingchen of the Ming Dynasty had always been behind his back.

Even though Xu Dingchen secretly did so many "beneficial" things for He Jinzhao, but most of the things he did, He Jinzhao didn't know the truth and cause of the things!
Now Xu Dingchen decided not to use other people's hands to beat the hammer bandit He Jinzhao, because he also has someone of his own.

This time to attack the hammer bandits, he does not rely on others, but on himself!
Thanks to the former governor Song Yintong sending people to Henan to recruit [-] "hair soldiers". These hair soldiers are called Mao Gourd Soldiers or Mao Salt Soldiers.

However, as Song Yintong was put down and resigned, this group of people stayed in Henan.

Now Xu Dingchen decided to bring back this team of his own.

However, as the rebel army went to Henan, the contradiction between Shanxi and Henan became more and more clear.

The 2000 soldiers who were supposed to go to Jin to suppress the bandits were arrested by Henan Governor Fan Shangxiu on the pretext that they did not follow the purpose of joint suppression and did not dare to cross the border. He is from Henan, why should he go to Shanxi to suppress bandits?
Although Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, and Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, were in the same situation, they still stood together at this time and asked Chongzhen for an order.

Fan Shangxiu immediately wrote a letter to argue that this was the Maoyan soldiers recruited by him from Kaifeng Mansion to Weihui Mansion in September of the fourth year of Chongzhen.

However, the thieves are far away and near at first, east and west, Jiyuan has the most divergent roads, and it has always been difficult to defend. It is a place where thieves must spy, so they have to focus on defense.

In Henan, there was an old man wearing a red tassel hat and leading his troops to attack the west, Zijin Liang rode a big chestnut horse to attack the southwest corner, and then changed to a green mane horse to attack the north, and there were generals Li Zicheng and Cao Cao Luo Rucai who were erratic.

The remaining parts were scattered, and the officers and soldiers could not recover them at all, so Henan needed more troops.

Governor Fan Shangxiu of Henan not only refuted the accusations made by Xuanda Governor Zhang Zongheng from various aspects, but also further proposed to the emperor a joint encirclement and suppression plan by the three provinces of Qin, Jin and Henan, and also wanted to resolve the issue of Mao Bing's ownership.

Chongzhen agreed to this joint encirclement and suppression. The Ministry of War discussed dividing the Maobing into two, and 600 soldiers were transferred from the guerrilla general Yue Zhongzhong to the Shanxi governor Xu Dingchen.

At that time, Qin soldiers, Jin soldiers, and Yu soldiers will attack from three sides, which can be called a complete strategy.

Therefore, Zuo Liangyu was sent to the governor of Henan Province for dispatch, and Shizhu chieftain soldiers were recruited to help in the battle.

All in all, although Qin, Jin and Yu divided the land and the people, they were one in the eyes of the court, and they were not allowed to watch each other from the sidelines.

The Ministry of War supports the plan of Henan governor Fan Shangxie, intending the three provinces to join forces to encircle and suppress, but Fan Shangxie who proposed this plan has his own small calculations.

Since your Ministry of War didn't divide the soldiers in half, you played favoritism!
Then I will rely on the remaining Henan Mao soldiers and local soldiers, plus Zuo Liangyu and the people from the Beijing camp, to drive all the rebel army back to Shanxi, and block the road into Henan.

"Protecting the environment and harming the neighbors" is not only Yang He who can do it, but everyone in that position will consider it.

As long as there are no accidents in my jurisdiction, I don't care what earth-shaking events happen in neighboring provinces or my successors!
At that time, Lao Tzu had already been promoted and made a fortune, and left this boundary and position.

This is also one of the reasons why after He Jinchao occupied Shanxi, the neighboring Shaanxi, Datong, Beizhili, Henan and other places did not have official troops to enter Shanxi to suppress bandits.
