Early in the morning, Liu Ze had finished washing up in the Hejian Mansion and was serving breakfast. A confidant came in hurriedly and whispered in his ear. His expression turned murderous again: "It's that stinky old Jiu again. You really think I don't dare." Kill him?"
Last night, Lao Jiu led the Black Wolf Battalion to confront his men. He already had murderous intentions. He was afraid of the big boss behind him but did not dare to take action. He was also afraid that the little eunuch would catch him with evidence, so he asked his men to restrain themselves, at least not Such an obvious nuisance.
Lao Jiu escaped from death without taking a breath, and the anger in his heart arose again. Previously, all the people in the city participated in the battle with numerous casualties, but Liu Zeqing's troops entered the city and took control, then ignored the aftermath and left him to fend for himself. Went out.
Although he was furious, he had no choice but to move Liu Zeqing, and he couldn't control Liu Zeqing, so he had to lead his troops and a rescue team organized voluntarily by the people in the city to start rescuing the wounded and clearing the ruins.
It wasn't until late at night that the exhausted soldiers of Heilang Camp suddenly found that they didn't even have a place to rest. It turned out that Liu Zeqing's men had occupied all the military camps and other places where they could stay in the city.
Forget it, he had many soldiers, many generals, many people and horses. Finally, a squire with a big family provided an abandoned manor for the Black Wolf Camp to rest. He called on the people to donate some rations. This moved Lao Jiu very much. Thanks again and again.
The squire sighed and said that Liu Zeqing had summoned the rich families in the city to force them to pay protection fees. Lao Jiu was immediately angry again. Donation and reconciliation were completely different things, so he immediately went to Liu Zeqing and said.
But he was stopped by the squires: "You have to give whatever you want, no matter how much you give. Why bother to make the person angry and cause the whole city to suffer?" Lao Jiu secretly made a decision and decided to sue Liu Thief when he met the governor one day. I don't believe that the little governor can't cure him.
Unexpectedly, before he could file a complaint, someone sent an order early in the morning, saying that Liu Zeqing asked him to lead his troops out of the city for investigation, targeting Suning County in the west, Gaoyang County in the northwest, etc...
Lao Jiu was furious. No matter heading west or northwest, it was where the main force of the bandit army was sleeping. It was extremely dangerous. Liu Zeqing allowed him to die without going there, so he scolded the messenger and asked him to tell Liu Zeqing: First, they are not scouts. Second, they are not scouts. Second, they were subordinate to Dongchang and only obeyed the orders of the emperor and the young eunuchs. At this time, they were ordered to guard the city in Hejian. Wang Jiayan, the governor of the capital camp, was not going anywhere. The Minister of War, Shi Kefa, was not qualified to order them.
The implication is that you, Liu Ze, are going to clear things up
When Liu Zeqing heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to kill him immediately. However, he also knew that as long as he made a move, he would have to eradicate the roots. In addition, he also needed a perfect excuse, otherwise Chang Yu could skin him alive.
Where can I find an excuse just for a moment? Liu Zeqing gritted his teeth and overturned the table, and the plates and bowls were shattered on the floor. Seeing this, his subordinates started shouting to bring Lao Jiu's head to see him, but he angrily said: "Don't hurt me!"
"General, let him live for a while. If there is no shortage of wars in the future, we can always find an opportunity to get rid of him. Let him die in the chaos without a trace. What can the little eunuch do if he can't get the evidence?" Han Zongshan, the general, offered his advice in a low voice. , Liu Zeqing's anger subsided.
Although he is a villain who must take revenge, he also knows that it is not appropriate to be impulsive at this time, and there is still a war to deal with, so the murders are put on hold for the time being. Although Hejian Fucheng is down, there are many thieves and bandits gathered in the surrounding small towns, so a large army should be sent to eliminate them one by one, but He warned his subordinates to act according to the opportunity, to retreat quickly if they encounter thieves, and not to go deep blindly.
While Liu Zeqing and others were plotting how to get rid of Lao Jiu, Chang Yu had already appeared on the border of Ningjin County. Yesterday, he ordered Gao Jie and Huang Degong to advance westward. Each of them led 5,000 cavalry to sweep across the two counties and regain nearly a hundred miles.
To the west of Ningjin and to the northwest of Gaoyi County is Zhaozhou, which was already the area hardest hit by the bandits. Huang Degong and Gao Jie did not dare to approach lightly, so they stationed troops in the area to wait for orders. Chang Yu then sent out troops from the city of Jizhou to support overnight, leaving only The sick, injured, old and weak defend the city.
At midnight, he led two battalions of troops under his command, and the latter arrived first and arrived in Ningjin County at dawn.
Huang Degong's troops were stationed in the city, and Gao Jie was stationed and camped on the banks of the Mi River a few miles outside the city. When they heard of Chang Yu's arrival, they hurried to the county government office in the city to meet them.
"There are ten houses in the city and nine are empty. This is the hardest-hit area where thieves have overrun. Most of the people have been driven away by them. There are very few left behind. It is almost an abandoned city..." Huang Degong looked solemn. Yesterday, when the soldiers arrived, there were hundreds of refugees. There were at least seven or eight groups gathered inside the territory. After the warning, many dispersed, but most of them fled to the west.
Gao Jie raised his eyebrows and continued: "The general's scouts reported that there are countless refugees and thieves thirty miles to the west. The thieves are entrenched in the main roads of villages and towns and stretch endlessly to the north. If we rush westward, we will be killed. Sleepy..." He sighed and shook his head slightly.
Even Huang Degong, who has always been at odds with each other, agrees with this. The bandits are hiding countless refugees everywhere. How should you respond if you advance?
Drive away, disperse and gather again.
Killing, there are so many people can't kill them all, and killing civilians will undoubtedly assist the bandit army, making the common people even more determined to be cannon fodder for Li Zicheng.
But if they are not killed, they will be used by thieves, and they can stab the officers and soldiers at any time to help the thieves commit crimes. What should they do?
Compassion does not control soldiers. Chang Yu has always been ruthless and ruthless, and must resort to extreme measures in emergency situations. As for the merits and demerits, future generations will comment. At this time, he could not care about the pressure of public opinion. He only wanted to suppress the bandits and quell the chaos, so he said to the two of them: " Kill, anyone who blocks the road, no matter the thieves or the people, can be killed.”
What if the factory supervisor went on a killing spree? Huang Degong smiled bitterly, while Gao Jie looked numb.
"When the army is advancing, make a public announcement: Those who follow the thieves will be killed, those who follow the thieves will be killed, and those who gather together and do not break up will be killed!" Chang Yu's tone was cold, and he stood up and looked outside the courtyard: "I, Dongchang, have always been decisive in killing. Kill one person." What’s the difference between killing a thousand or even ten thousand? If you can defeat a thief, you can kill a hundred thousand without blinking an eye, and even the governor will bear the infamy throughout the ages!”
Huang Degong and Gao Jie couldn't help but shudder, murderous maniac, butcher!
As soon as the three-kill order of the big boss of Dongchang came out, Huang Degong and Gao Jie's troops sharpened their swords and prepared for a killing spree. Chang Yu ordered the two to rest for a day. After the follow-up main force arrived, Gao Jie's troops set out to the west to capture Gaoyi. , Huang Degong took Zhaozhou in the northwest.
This day's rest is not about eating, sleeping and doing nothing. In addition to sending troops to disperse the gathered refugees and widely informing them of the consequences of sticking with the thieves, a large number of scouts were sent into Gaoyi and Zhaozhou. At the same time, they also had to guard against the incoming thieves. After all, This place is close to the main force of the bandit army. The officers and soldiers have been advancing for 200 miles continuously. It is difficult to guarantee that Li Zicheng will not send people to take the initiative to snipe.
After a series of arrangements, Huang Degong and Gao Jie wanted to have dinner and discuss matters in the ordinary world at noon, but found that the young eunuch was missing. Only Tu Yuan was left wandering outside the city with the Black Tiger Camp. After questioning, they learned that Chang Yu had gone to Chang Yu in disguise. Zhaozhou.
The two of them were horrified. Zhaozhou was an area hit hard by thieves, with many thieves and refugees. At this time, it was also a place where spies and spies were concentrated. It was too dangerous for the young eunuch to go there.
Unexpectedly, Tu Yuan rolled his eyes, dangerous? In Taiyuan, the young governor only stayed with him for a few nights before he broke into the intruder's camp and even killed the young intruder king Li Laiheng. Zhaozhou was considered extremely dangerous, not to mention that he was surrounded by experts at this time, plus Gong Gong Ziying was on the periphery to support him, but no one could do anything to him.
Huang and Gao breathed a sigh of relief, but they still couldn't help complaining about the nature of children. How can they be so playful? Don't you understand that a gentleman doesn't stand behind a dangerous wall? If something happens to you, there will be countless people around Baoding Mansion. Where should the troops go?
