When Chen Xinjia heard that Sun Chuanting, the governor of the world's Qinwang soldiers, had arrived, he hurriedly led the general soldiers of the third town of Xuanda, as well as Zhang Cheng and other generals, large and small, out of the city to greet them.
All the general soldiers from Guan Ning had already rushed to station outside Baoding City. At this moment, they also followed Chen Xinjia out to greet Sun Chuanting.
In fact, after they fled in Jize, they had reunited long ago, but no matter what, they could not find out the news about Gao Qiqian, the supervisor, and everyone was afraid of being blamed for betraying the coach.
He kept wandering around Baoding and watched. Later, after receiving the news that the imperial court pardoned his crime and waited for him to perform meritorious service, they all appeared in Baoding Fucheng.
…………
Soon after, a mighty army appeared in the southwest of Baoding. They were full of fine cavalry and their hooves sounded like thunder, rolling toward Baoding.
In front of the army, a large flag with the word "Sun" was flying, and surrounded by a group of elite cavalry guards in bright helmets, they quickly arrived not far from Chen Xinjia.
Zhang Chengji could vaguely see a man dressed as a civil servant on the horse in front of him. He was wearing a bright red official robe. He looked less than fifty years old. He had a dignified appearance, a square face, and a thick beard. He couldn't hide his arrogance in his gaze. Spirit.
Zhang Cheng guessed that the civil official should be Sun Chuanting, the former governor of Shaanxi who succeeded Lu Xiangsheng as the governor of the world and the king of Qin soldiers and horses.
When he got closer, just by looking at his appearance and style, Zhang Cheng was convinced that this person must be the man with a bold personality, guidance, and inspiring writing. He also captured Gao Yingxiang alive, and his reputation was so great that it almost surpassed that of his mentor, Governor Hong Chengchou. Sun Chuanting.
He has experienced hundreds of battles and is well versed in military strategy. His loyalty to the Ming Dynasty is beyond words. He is indeed a die-hard royalist.
However, this man was too aggressive and offended countless people. The most important thing was that he offended the "Prime Minister Yang" Yang Sichang who should not be offended.
At this time, he narrowly slaughtered Li Chuang's remaining power and came with the army proudly. He was afraid that what awaited him would be a series of unspeakable tragedies.
Wang Dou heard Chen Xinjia in front of him muttering in a low voice: "Look at Sun Baigu's complacency. He has defeated the bandits and not completely wiped them out."
Zhang Cheng heard this, but didn't take it seriously. He looked at the Shaanxi general behind Sun Chuanting. People said that the Qin army was suffering. They worked more than donkeys and ate less than chickens. It was true.
The Shaanxi army that followed Sun Chuanting to Baoding first was the elite cavalry under his Fubiao camp and the main military camp of the general soldiers. Most of the remaining soldiers would arrive intermittently later.
But looking at these elite cavalry servants, most of them have no armor, and there are very few who wear iron armor. Most of them wear cotton armor or leather armor, and the armor is old and worn. The horses are thin.
Obviously, these soldiers and horses traveled thousands of miles from Shaanxi to aid the capital, and they also suffered a lot.
Their accents were obviously different from those of Xuan Dajun or Guan Ning. Looking at Chen Xinjia, Xuanda and Guan Ning's generals who were greeting each other in front of the city gate, for a moment, they thought, "donkey ball", "your mother's hair", "I am my father" and other noisy voices faintly reached the ears of Zhang Cheng and others.
Hearing this commotion, Chen Xinjia frowned slightly, but it passed quickly.
Governor Sun Chuanting turned around and glanced with dignity, and even shouted a few curses. Immediately, there was silence behind him. It was obvious that he was very prestigious among the Qin army.
Soon Sun Chuanting came to Chen Xinjia and others, and Zhang Cheng saw it more clearly. Sun Chuanting's face had many horizontal lines, and his beard was also black and white. The closer he got, the sharper his eyes became.
Chen Xinjia took a few steps forward, and Wen Yan repeatedly praised Governor Sun for his merits in suppressing the bandits, and how hard it was for him to ride a horse thousands of miles and work hard for the king.
But Sun Chuanting said proudly: "The traitor Gao Yingxiang died, the thieves Scorpion Block and the Great Heavenly King were defeated, and there was only one intruder left in Shaanxi. It is a pity that the Eastern slaves invaded, and the Qin army summoned King Qianli Qin to come to the reinforcements. If not, our three armies would The soldiers have now captured Li Chuang and the thieves alive, so that the imperial court no longer has to worry about looking westward!"
The arrogance in his tone made Chen Xinjia frown slightly again, but Sun Chuanting looked nonchalant.
Although Chen Xingjia was the governor of Xuanda, Sun Chuanting was now the governor of the world. He hurriedly ordered the generals behind him to come forward and pay homage to Governor Sun.
Xuanzhen Commander-in-Chief Yang Guozhu, Datong Commander-in-Chief Wang Pu, Shanxi Commander-in-Chief Hu Dawei and others came forward to pay homage to Sun Chuanting. Then, Miyun Commander-in-Chief Tang Tong, Jizhen Commander-in-Chief Bai Guangen, former Tun Guard Commander Wang Tingchen, Shanhaiguan Commander-in-Chief Ma Ke and other generals also came forward to pay homage.
After that, the generals and guerrillas from each town came forward to pay their respects. Sun Chuanting's expression remained unchanged, and he only looked at Xuanda and Guan Ning coldly. Only when Zhang Cheng came forward to pay homage, he raised his eyebrows. , looked at Zhang Cheng carefully, but didn't say anything.
Then, Sun Chuanting turned around and ordered the Shaanxi generals to come forward to pay homage to Chen Xinjia, the Governor of Xuanda, and saw a group of Shaanxi military generals walking up wearing helmets.
The four middle-aged generals who led him were extremely strong, and his figure could almost be described as square. His face was covered with oily flesh and crisscrossed scars. When he saw these generals, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but think of Yang Guozhu. General Guo Yingxian of the Chinese Army arrived.
I saw him coming up like a crab. The armor on his body was old and worn, and even his cloak and cloak were generally old.
He cupped his hands to Chen Xinjia and said: "Last general, I am in charge of the governor Qian Shi. The general of Shaanxi Province congratulates Renlong and pays homage to Chen Duchen."
Then all the generals in Shaanxi came forward to pay homage to Chen Xinjia, the governor of Xuanda.
"The last general, the governor of the department, Qian Shi, the general of Lintao, Cao Bianjiao, pays homage to Chen Duchen."
"At the end of the day, General Dudu Qianshi was appointed. General Zuo Guangxian, General Soldier of Guyuan, paid homage to Chen Duchen."
"Last General, Shaanxi Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li Guoqi, pay my respects..."
"Last General, Shaanxi Guerrilla Gao Jie..."
"Last General, Shaanxi..."
Listening to the introduction of this group of people, Zhang Cheng thought to himself that the strong man was He Renlong.
He was born as a Jinshi in the Wanli era. History records that he fought madly and risked his life, and was very brave. The peasant army feared him like a tiger and called him Madman He.
However, He Renlong was indeed brave in the early battles, but he was also extremely domineering, especially later, under Yang Sichang's instigation, he fought with Zuo Liangyu and failed to win the battle with the thief general.
He was greatly dissatisfied because of this, so he became a general in charge and not in charge. He tried his best to avoid fighting with the intruders and rebels, so as to protect his own strength and become a long-legged general.
In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen's reign, Yang Sichang encircled and suppressed Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, so he returned to Shaanxi from Kaixian County, causing Zhang Xianzhong to break through the encirclement, and the situation became out of control.
Later, in the Battle of Xiangcheng and the Battle of Xiangcheng, he abandoned his commander and ran away twice, resulting in the failure of the war and the death of two supervisors.
Moreover, He Renlong, Li Zicheng, and Zhang Xianzhong were all from Mizhi, Shaanxi. After Zhang Xianzhong broke through the siege in the 13th year of Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen suspected that he was secretly collaborating with the enemy and secretly ordered Sun Chuanting to arrest and kill him.
On the first day of May in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting arrested He Renlong and beheaded him.
A typical military leader in the late Ming Dynasty, a representative of domineering and uncontrollable. If you are lucky enough to fight alongside He Renlong in the future, you must be careful of him leaving you and running away.
