Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 702 Are You Good or Bad (Fifth Change)

Shanxi Zuo Buzheng Wang Xiangkun died of illness in office, and the imperial court sent Yang Wenyue to take over.

He and Yuan Chonghuan, Liang Tingdong, Sun Chuanting and others are all Jinshi in the same list.

Compared with others, only Sun Chuanting is the worst, enjoying life at home all the time.

In the past few years, Yang Wenyue has successively served as a rightist in Jiangxi, and successively served as inspectors in Huguang and Guangxi.

Because many people were unwilling to come to Shanxi, they sent him here.

When Yang Wenyue heard that the leader of the hammer bandit, He Jinzhao, dared to shout outside Yanmen Pass, it really made him very angry.

After he came to Shanxi to take over, he learned that Governor Xu Dingchen still had the face to ask His Majesty for credit, saying that the situation in Shanxi was very good.

But in reality, even the county seat is not in the hands of the government and the army, and the entire Shanxi Province relies on Yanmen Pass to preserve the two counties.

The rest all fell into the hands of the hammer bandits.

In such a situation, how could Yang Wenyue not be angry?
Now Xu Dingchen took his elite soldiers to support Beizhili, leaving some troops to guard Yanmen Pass.

Standing on the tower, Yang Wenyue looked into the distance and asked, "Can this cannon hit the hammer bandits?"

"My lord, this is just a decoration."

Hearing this, even the good-tempered Yang Wenyue couldn't help being rude, and uttered a Sichuan dialect: "You son of a bitch, how old are your dry claws!"

The soldier next to him called Tian Qu: "My lord, is it because I don't want to have a good gun?
The brothers have no food and clothing on weekdays, and many of them have joined the hammer bandits, and I, who has a family, have never gone, but the court will not pay and fire! "

Yang Wenyue held back the anger in his heart: "Didn't the governor pay you?"

"The governor only cares about his pacesetters, how can he have money and food to control us. Last winter, tens of hundreds of brothers died of frostbite."

Yang Wenyue felt chills, he had never encountered such a thing in the south.

He knew that Xu Dingchen had controlled the gold mines in Fanzhi County, so he would not be out of money.

"Is what you said true?"

"My lord will know just by asking."

Yang Wenyue only felt that this group of officers and soldiers did not immediately surrender to the hammer bandits, which was enough to prove their loyalty to Daming.

If He Jinchao led his army through the Yanmen Pass, Yang Wenyue couldn't imagine whether these people would turn around and join the hammer bandits.

If the Hammer bandits knew the inside story and attacked Yanmen Pass immediately, would they be able to stop them from entering Xuanda?

Yang Wenyue made up his mind and immediately asked Xuanda Governor Zhang Zongchang for reinforcements. Without reinforcements, he had to get some artillery that could be fired, at least firing cannons could scare people.

Outside Yanmen Pass, Wu Dading said happily:

"Marshal, we have already established contact with the officers and soldiers on the border, most of them are our people, and many of their hometowns have been controlled by us.

If the commander-in-chief wants to leave Yanmen Pass, he only needs to ask them to open the gate. "

He Jinzhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's a good job, I'll give it a credit."

Wu Dading chuckled: "That dog official is really not a joke. According to those who surrendered, they didn't even have winter clothes fully distributed in winter, many people froze to death, and they owed money and food for a long time.

Even if the money was distributed, it was all corrupted by the guards, and it was not distributed to ordinary soldiers at all.

So their families told them to come to us to join the refugees, to farm to support themselves, and they were unwilling to work for the officers and soldiers.

Especially those with families, almost half of them ran back. Of course, these officers and soldiers still chose to join the trap camp, wanting to gain military merit quickly.

On the contrary, people who have no family and no job are willing to take the risk of guarding the gate and report any news in time. "

Zhang Fuzhen shook his head, he still underestimated the local people.

Regardless of whether they are stationed at the forefront of the war, if they should not be paid, they will not be paid.

The imperial court owed more and more salaries, and even a little money would not fall on the ordinary soldiers.

The hammer bandits occupy Shanxi, and these military households want to quickly obtain their own land, so they are designated to join the hammer bandits.

After all, the people in their hometown are all in the territory of the rebels.

Moreover, Zhang Fuzhen had some contempt for Xu Dingchen's military management philosophy. He must be the kind of low-level soldier who does not honor his meritorious service. The credit belongs to him.

If you don't obey, you will be beheaded. If you listen to him, if you lose the battle, he will also say that you are a soldier who dared to advance and didn't listen to his command to lose the battle.

But in Hammer Bandits, this kind of thing is almost rare.

A staff officer is a staff officer and has no authority to command.

Most of the scholars under He Jinzhao didn't have any errands to command people, and they wouldn't be like Daming, where laymen guide experts.

Or the matter of embezzling ordnance, even Zhang Fuzhen, the governor, cannot lead qualified and countable ones.

Try it with the Hammer Bandit, his brother-in-law will check all the appearances, not to mention the punishment for corruption.

"I'm not in a hurry to send troops to Yanmen Pass. Now Dongchu can only make wedding dresses for others."

"My lord is right. Even if Shaanxi is drought-stricken, we should first control the Northwest, so as to have the opportunity to enter Sichuan and leave Huguang and other grain-producing lands."

Wu Dading was quite regretful, but he didn't feel that his arrangements were useless.

"Marshal, don't we go east?"

"The time is not enough." He Jinzhao looked at his own people who closed the Yanmen Gate with a telescope:

"Let's just confront each other like this first, and give the Ming court a false impression. Otherwise, Daming will gather all its strength to attack me. If we don't have enough food, we have to leave Shanxi. This is not safe.

Just help me keep an eye on the east gate, and you will be the number one general in the east in the future. "

Wu Dading was not a reckless person either, when he heard He Jinzhao's words, his face was filled with joy.

At that time, the whole army will attack the capital and seize the position of Emperor Dog!
"Commander." Wu Dading quickly stabilized his mind: "I heard from the defenders that Shanxi Zuo Buzheng Wang Xiangkun died of illness, and the new successor is Yang Wenyue."

"Oh, take a good look at this person's details."

"My lord, I have had contact with him a few times. I am in charge of the military department, and he is in charge of the military department. He is a man who knows how to fight, but he has never had a chance to practice."

"Damn it." He Jinzhao couldn't help curling his lips and said, "Why is a literati who knows soldiers sent to the mountains and Shaanxi?
I thought it would be enough to have Hong Chengchou to the west and Lu Xiangsheng to the east, but another came from the hinterland of Shanxi.

I am really lucky to have so many civil servants serving me alone. "

Zhang Fuzhen couldn't help laughing and said: "My lord, Daming has never lacked capable people."

"That's right, with so many capable people, there's no way to make up for Da Ming." He Jinzhao shrugged, no one could save Da Ming.

"Marshal, do you want to take advantage of him to inspect and have someone knock him out in the dark and send him in a sack?"

He Jinzhao hummed, and said with a smile on his face:
"Good idea. I hate a literati with a soldier in the core area the most. It's best to let Xu Dingchen work hard on his own without the help of others."

"My lord, this matter is not in a hurry." Zhang Fuzhen pinched his beard and said with a smile:

"After Xu Dingchen comes back, the two of them will definitely have conflicts, and then they will have Yang Wenyue tied up behind their backs.

Yang Wenyue thought that Xu Dingchen was a thief, and Xu Dingchen must have written to Yang Wenyue that he was a thief. "

"Yeah." He Jinzhao praised again and again: "You are still worse!"

　No more tonight, go to bed early.
