On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 228 Entering Wu County
Undoubtedly, Cui Che's tactics in the Battle of Wuxi really opened the eyes of all the generals under his command.

First wiped out [-] enemies in Jingkou, and then beheaded [-] in Wuxi, and had to surrender [-] soldiers, plus the defenders in Yixing, Jiangyin and other places.

It only took more than half a month to cross the river, and the number of prisoners exceeded [-], but there were not many casualties among themselves.

Even Shi Wansui, who likes real men fighting with swords and guns, has to admit that Cui Che reaped the greatest results with the least loss.

Of course, Shi Wansui was still unconvinced. He felt that the rebel army's combat effectiveness was too weak and they were not in the same line, which allowed Cui Che to find an opportunity to take advantage of.

If you really want to meet an evenly matched opponent, you have to go out on your own.

Cui Che didn't care what Shi Wansui thought, he was overwhelmed by the compliments from the generals under his command. After finally getting everyone to perform their duties, Cui Che also began to think about how to deal with the more than 1 surviving rebels.

According to Cui Che's idea, of course, he hoped to reorganize these people and encourage them to make more contributions so that they could be exempted from being slaves and fight against Gao Zhizhi, Wang Wenjin and others.

But without Yang Jian's consent, Cui Che could not make his own decision. He had already proposed this idea to Yang Jian in the good news sent to Daxing, but the journey was far away, and it was impossible to get an answer in a short time.

Cui Che spared the family members of the surviving rebels according to his previous promise.

As for the wives and daughters of the victims, they really couldn't tell which ones were stubborn and which ones turned their backs and were killed.

Besides, the rebels fought each other in this battle, and the Sui army had few people who made meritorious deeds. Cui Che simply let them all go, and did not send people to search and arrest them.

But Shen Xuanzhang, Shen Jie, Shen Neng, and Shen Xue, the family members of the Shen family in Suzhou, could not escape punishment, and all of them became criminals.

Although Gu Ziyuan was killed by Shen Xuanzhang, Cui Che still made the first contribution for him, and the official position was taken by his son.

Zhang Wu, who captured Shen Xuanzhang, and the third who killed Shen Jie, Shen Neng, and Shen Xue, Cui Che ordered Gao Shilian and Kong Yingda to record all meritorious persons and wait for them to return to the court. Give them credit again.

That night, Cui Che did not celebrate with wine. He disarmed the surviving rebels and left [-] soldiers to guard them. As for Gu Shixing, Ye Lue, Lu Mengsun and others, he brought them into the army and separated them. Something went wrong.

After arranging everything, Cui Che ordered the infantry to rest for a while, and then set off, while he led [-] cavalry southward to Wu County.

Cui Hongdu stopped Gao Zhihui and Wang Wenjin's reinforcements in Wu County, and fought fiercely for several days. Due to the strong enemy forces, Cui Hongdu asked Cui Che for help several times.

Cui Che also intends to keep Gao Zhihui and Wang Wenjin in Wu County, which is better than letting them go back to their old lair.

However, Gao Zhihui and Wang Wenjin were not fools. Since the Sui Dynasty ruled in Jiangnan was unpopular, and many local people provided cover for the rebels, they did not dare to stay in Wu County for long after learning about the battle in Wuxi.

When Cui Che rushed to the city without stopping, the two had already fled.

Cui Hongdu didn't expect Gao Zhihui and Wang Wenjin to go so resolutely, and it was too late to send troops to chase them.

After entering the city, Cui Che saw that Cui Hongdu was depressed, and comforted him:

"Director Cui doesn't need to worry about this. You have made a great contribution by blocking the reinforcements for several days."

Cui Hongdu finally looked better.

At this time, he also heard about Cui Che's victory in Wuxi, and he was quite convinced of it.

Of course, there are complaints about Cui Che's behavior of trying to see if the sword is sharp.

Different from the tense situation in Jiangbei, after crossing the river, the two are gradually repairing their relationship.

As the forces of Gao Zhizhi and Wang Wenjin withdrew to Yuezhou and Wuzhou, after Changzhou, Suzhou also announced its recovery. After Suzhou Governor Huangfuji buried Gu Ziyuan, he rushed back to Wu County to organize the restoration of production order.

Cui Che was not in a hurry to enter the army, but took advantage of the victory to pursue.

Now Gao Zhizhi and Wang Wenjin are still confused about the situation of the two rebels, Cui Che never fights uncertain battles.

Since he was looking for someone to investigate the enemy's situation, Cui Che immediately thought of Mai Tiezhang.

It's not that Cui Che used it to death just because it's easy to use, and tossed around alone with the Mai Tiezhang.

There is really no more suitable candidate than him. Mai Tiezhang is originally from the south of the Yangtze River. He can speak both Lingnan and Jiankang accents. He has fast legs. He can run no slower than a horse. , is difficult to detect.

When Mai Tiezhang was summoned by Cui Che, and learned that he was asked to investigate the military situation in Huzhou, Mai Tiezhang agreed without hesitation.

Mai Tiezhang came from a humble background, if he wanted to get ahead, he had to risk his life.

Now that Duke Yan values ​​himself so much, he is not afraid of being corrupted after making great achievements. There is nothing to worry about. God has given him a good body to climb walls and cross country, omnipotent, isn't it just for this job.

Cui Che personally sent Mai Tiezhang out of the city, said goodbye to him outside the city, asked Zhao Wen to ride him for a ride, and saved some energy, and smiled at Mai Tiezhang:
"In the future, besides learning to read, you have to learn to ride a horse. When the horse is tired from running, you dismount and walk again. Even if others have a thousand-mile horse, they will not be able to catch up with you."

Mai Tiezhang did not reject Cui Che's kindness, he knew that Cui Che let him learn Chinese characters in order to obtain official status in the future.

Teach him to ride a horse, and hope that he can become a general in the army, not a scout who can only inquire about the enemy's situation.

"Yan Guogong has cultivated me like this, and I can only repay it with my life." '

Mai Tiezhang bowed his farewell to Cui Che, then climbed on the horse, and was led by Zhao Wen to the state of Suzhou.

After watching Zhao Wen and Mai Tiezhang go away, Cui Che returned to the city and went straight to Yang Guang's temporary residence.

Today Yang Guang bought wine in the mansion to celebrate with Cui Che.

It's not to celebrate the war, but the Yuan family died of illness. Yang Jian angrily reprimanded Yang Yong for poisoning the princess.

After one and a half months, the news from Daxing City finally reached Yang Guang's ears.

Knowing that Yang Jian and Yang Yong's father-son relationship has come to this point, Yang Guang is not happy.

The two exchanged glasses, Yang Guang got drunk, and Cui Che escorted him to the bedroom where Gu Shixing's wife and concubine took good care of him.

When Yang Guang was in Jinling, because he missed the princess of Jin, he used Gu Shixing's wife and concubine who stayed in Jinling to relieve his lovesickness.

Although Gu Shixing turned against him now, his wives and concubines are not going to get back. Gu Shixing also pretended not to know about it, and was always worried, lest Yang Guang would kill him with an excuse.

Cui Che returned to his residence, was about to rest, and accompanied Li Qing to report, while Gu Shixing asked to see him outside the residence.

Although the rebel army was temporarily separated, Cui Che did not regard Gu Shixing, Lu Mengsun, Ye Lue and others as prisoners, and gave them some freedom.

Cui Che called Gu Shixing into the mansion, and comforted him with kind words, so Gu Shixing felt relieved.
