Chapter 215 Killing Ao Shanwei
Chapter 215 Killing towards Aoshan Guard
The first thing Zhang Zhun did when he returned to Fushan City was to expand his army.
The high-quality iron ore from Lingshanwei quickly replaced the inferior ore produced by Laoshan, which greatly improved the output of Fushancheng steel. Every day, the steel workshops of Li Fenglai and others could produce about 300 kilograms of steel. Some of the quality is quite good and can be used to make the barrels of the Huben gun. The arrival of high-quality ore improves work efficiency and reduces production costs. The same silver can be exchanged for more steel.
The 300 craftsmen who were forcibly migrated from Lingshanwei by Zhang Zhun were also engaged in all aspects of production. Most of their people worked in iron smelting furnaces. A small number of reliable people were selected into craftsmen's workshops. Some were adjusted to Xue Zhidie's shipyard. Due to the addition of these skilled craftsmen, the output of Huben guns increased by more than 50%, and the daily output reached about 30. The number of Hawkeye guns was also increased to five per day.
With sufficient weapons and equipment, Zhang Zhun of course wanted to expand his army. As long as there were enough weapons and manpower, there was no problem. There were many young men around Fushan City who wanted to join the army, and there was no problem at all.
On the third day of September, the Fourth Association of the Guards was officially established.
Like the other three associations, the Fourth Association still commands three squads, each with 50 soldiers, a total of 150 soldiers. There are also 40 officers at all levels, a total of about 200. All the backbones of the Third Association are of course from the other three associations. All the new soldiers are the backbones of the original guerrillas and the armed forces. At the same time, Zhang Zhun also consciously added some new soldiers from Lingshan Acropolis and the Qianhukou Institute of Xiahezhai, in the guard team, with about twenty each. The commander of the Fourth Association is Wu Qingliang, the deputy commander, and Zhang Lingyun.
The Guard Artillery Association was established at the same time. The artillery association from Lingshan Guard and the two artillery from Fushan City were all dismantled and used together. The Artillery Association has two squads in total, each squad with 50 soldiers. Each squad controls 5 Filang Machinery cannons. The commander of the Artillery Association is Xu Ziwen and the deputy commander is Liu Chenzi.
With four infantry associations, plus one artillery association, the total strength of the entire guard team has about 1,000 people. In addition to the navy, Zhang Zhun has more than 1,200 people. For the guard team, this is not only a quantity improvement, but also a qualitative improvement. Because the guard team has professional artillery for the first time. Although the artillery currently uses conventional Flang machine artillery, it laid the foundation for the future development of artillery.
After the expansion of the army, Zhang Zhun stared at the Tartars on Tianheng Island.
Regardless of whether he was pleading or not, Zhang Zhun would not allow the Tartars to continue to rush on Tianheng Island.
For Zhang Zhun, there is only one way out for all Tartars, that is:
die!
All Tartars must die!
Only the dead Tartars are good Tartars!
After suffering heavy damage, the Tartars on Tianheng Island should have a force of about a few hundred people. If they cannot get reinforcements, with Zhang Zhun's current strength and using strong attacks, they can completely eliminate the Tartars. Therefore, during this period, it is the best time to launch an attack. Otherwise, once the Tartars receive reinforcements, the battle will be delayed again.
For the Tartars who destroyed Tianheng Island, all the military households in Fushan City are unconditionally supported. We do not have any conditions to kill the Tartars! However, before destroying Tianheng Island, Zhang Zhun had another very important thing to do, that is:
Take down Aoshanwei!
Geographically speaking, Aoshanwei just stuck in Zhang Zhun's throat, which is really like a thorn in his throat. Aoshanwei is the main threat to Jimo County and Fushan City. It only takes a day and a half to walk from Aoshanwei to Fushancheng. If Zhang Zhun took the opportunity to attack Fushancheng when he attacked Tianheng Island, it would be more than worth the loss.
According to the information of mouse, Dengzhou Governor Yang Wenyue and Shandong General Liu Zeqing deployed the troops to attack Fushan City as follows: Dengzhou Prefecture dispatched 3,000 combat troops, as the main force of the attack, first arrived at Aoshan Guard and prepared all combat preparations. Then, Laizhou Guard Li Chengdong led the two thousand combat troops under his command to join the Aoshan Guard and Dengzhou war soldiers. Then, Laizhou Prefect Sun Zhixie also led the 1,000 local troops he organized to come to Aoshan Guard and join the attacking army. In addition, the 1,000 troops of Aoshan Guard itself, formed 7,000 troops, claiming to be 10,000, and rushed towards Fushan City.
Therefore, the Aoshan Guard is the intersection of the enemy in all directions, the starting point of the enemy's attack, and the logistics base for all enemies. At present, the Aoshan Guard is carrying out various preparations before the battle is launched. If you occupy the Aoshan Guard in advance, you can not only break the overall plan of Yang Wenyue and Liu Zeqing, and maybe you can also get a good harvest in the Aoshan Guard. Before the army moves, food and grass will go first. The Aoshan Guard should have a lot of food and grass stocks stored now, right?
In addition, if you take down the Aoshanwei, it will be very beneficial to future battles. For example, the distance to attack Tianheng Island will be much shorter. Zhang Zhun has two routes to attack Tianheng Island. One is to board the boat directly from Fushan City, sail to Tianheng Island, and land forcibly. The other is to start from Aoshanwei. The former requires most of the time to sail on the sea. The latter only takes less than an hour. From the perspective of reducing risks, of course, it is better to choose the latter.
The east gate of Aoshanwei is connected to the sea. When the sea water rises, the sea boat can directly dock at the east gate of Aoshanwei. In other words, the soldiers attacking Tianheng Island can board the boat directly at the east gate. When returning, they can also get off the boat directly at the east gate. In this way, it will be shortened by more than 70% of the distance than attacking Tianheng Island from Fushan City. Navigation at sea is risky after all. Kublai Khan's hundreds of thousands of troops were sunk by the storm. Zhang Zhun had to be careful.
From the perspective of resource integration, Aoshanwei is a Acropolis after all, which controls more than 1,000 square kilometers of land, more than 200,000 mu of land, and nearly 40,000 military households. If such resources are controlled by one's own hands, they will undoubtedly effectively increase their strength. In addition, from a strategic perspective, after controlling Aoshanwei, the defense depth of Fushancheng will also extend a lot. As long as Aoshanwei does not lose its despair, Fushancheng will be absolutely safe.
Therefore, the key to everything is to take down Aoshanwei.
With Zhang Zhun's order, all the combat preparations were launched quickly.
To attack Aoshan Weicheng, of course, the help of artillery is indispensable. According to Zhang Zhun's requirements, the commanders of the Artillery Association, Xu Ziwen and Liu Chenzi installed artillery mounts that could move from a long distance, and four soldiers could run. Ten soldiers took turns to walk hundreds of kilometers a day. In addition, they also prepared some special "gifts" for the enemies of Aoshan Wei according to Zhang Zhun's advice.
"Set off!"
On the morning of the sixth day of September, Zhang Zhun officially led the team to attack Aoshanwei.
...
The commander of Aoshanwei, Zhao Yinying, just returned from Dengzhou Prefecture today. Along the way, Zhao Yinying was constantly comforting himself and wanted to forget the unpleasant days in Dengzhou Prefecture as soon as possible. As long as he returned to Aoshanwei and returned to his territory, he was still the boss of Aoshanwei. On this acre of three-point land of Aoshanwei, only others nodded and bowed in front of him, and he did not need to nod and bow to anyone.
In the past month, Zhao Yinying's life has indeed been difficult. Every time I think about it, Zhao Yinying couldn't help but curse. The life in Dengzhou Prefecture is really not something that people live. The civil officials in Dengzhou Prefecture are all veterans who cut their flesh. Even if Zhao Yinying's cunning, they were blackmailed more than 5,000 taels of silver. Yang Wenyue, the governor of Denglai, and Liu Zeqing, the general general of Shandong, all extorted 5,000 taels of silver from Zhao Yinying. In Dengzhou Prefecture, there was no 15,000 taels of silver in one month. Even if Zhao Yinying's pretty wealth was still ill, he would vomit blood.
Zhao Yinying swore that he would not continue this kind of life under others in the future. In any case, he would never leave Aoshan Guard again. The dignified third-rank guard commander was even worse than a dog in Dengzhou Prefecture. Even a small promoter from Dengzhou Prefecture dared to come directly to him and blackmail him. Otherwise, some of his family would be suddenly pulled into prison. The other party's excuse was very simple. Dengzhou Prefecture had a special power, which was to distinguish whether there were spies from Liaodong lurking. If you casually put a spy on the charge, you would have to stay in the prison. Zhao Yinying, who was tortured by this danger, had to use silver to buy peace.
"Everyone, it's better to go back to Aoshanwei!"
After returning to Aoshan Acropolis, Zhao Yinying gathered all his subordinates to hold a grand banquet for psychological comfort. Of course, he was also trying hard to tell himself that the nightmare has passed. From now on, everyone’s happy days have come back again. As long as he dealt with Zhang Zhun, the thief, everyone can rest assured.
Like Zhao Yinying, officers of all sizes of Aoshanwei were extorted by the officials there more or less when they lived in Dengzhou Prefecture. Even honest people like Lin Renjie, deputy household, were extorted by thousands of taels of silver, not to mention those commanders, commanders and other commanders. In short, their lives were saved, but their wealth had shrunk by at least 30%.
The officials of Dengzhou Prefecture are very proud of this: I have protected you, of course you should reward them symbolically. Is your life important or your money important? If you have no life, why do you still need money to do? This is still very favorable. If you change it, you will be directly detained and the charge of losing your troops and land will be put on. You will all have to be beheaded and then all your property will be searched.
"It's all Zhang Zhun!"
"It's all that damn Zhang Zhun!"
"It's all this crazy man Zhang Zhun! The evil star! The death star!"
Regarding the tragedy he suffered, officers at all levels of Aoshanwei all agreed that it was Zhang Zhun's fault. If it were not for Zhang Zhun, how could they run around? If it was not for Zhang Zhun, would they need to rely on others? If it was not for Zhang Zhun, they would need to take the initiative to deliver it to their doors and be slaughtered obediently?
Fortunately, with the arrival of the war soldiers in Dengzhou Prefecture, Zhang Zhun's trouble should be cleaned up soon. Three thousand warriors and three thousand combat experience carry a large number of firearms and artillery, which can completely eliminate Zhang Zhun.
Zhao Yinying was particularly looking forward to seeing Zhang Zhun being hanged. For a guard commander, it was indeed a bit rude to run to Dengzhou Prefecture to take refuge by others. However, in order to escape, there was nothing to do. Who said that the Aoshan Guard's own strength is not Zhang Zhun's opponent? Fortunately, now that the soldiers from Dengzhou Prefecture have been dispatched, they can finally deal with Zhang Zhun.
"We want to take Fushan City and teach some people a lesson!"
"We want to hang his head on the top of the city so that everyone can see it!"
"In this world, they can't just say it back!"
Zhao In-young vented all his anger.
After living a good life, Zhang Zhun was ruined. How could Zhao Yinying not hate him?
"Destroy Zhang Zhun!"
"Destroy Zhang Zhun!"
"Destroy Zhang Zhun!"
The officers present started to attack.
Of course, they still remember the suffering that Zhang Zhun had caused them. If it weren't for this hateful Zhang Zhun, the Aoshanwei would have been calm now, and everyone's life would be comfortable and leisurely. How could it be like now? Not only did they feel scared all day long, but their wealth was almost halfway.
In this day and age, why are you working hard to become an official? Not for how much money? The money you have saved up has disappeared like this. How could they be willing to do it? What's even more terrible is that if Zhang Zhun is not killed as soon as possible, once the land and land are divided, their lives will be even more sad.
Fortunately, the soldiers of Dengzhou Prefecture finally came out. In front of the soldiers, Zhang Zhun was the grasshopper in the autumn and could not jump for a few days. As long as Zhang Zhun was eliminated, the days of Aoshanwei would return to the past. Everything was so relaxed and comfortable. After experiencing the unbearable days of Dengzhou Prefecture, everyone present felt that Aoshanwei was really a paradise!
However, just as Cho In-young was full of confidence, he raised his glass and drank several glasses in a row. His steps began to float and his eyes were blurred, a spy rushed over and said something in his ear.
Zhao Yinying was a little overjoyed for a few days and drank a lot of glasses of liquor. She was in her mind about how to vent her hatred after catching Zhang Zhun. She didn't hear the spy's words clearly and shouted impatiently: "What's the matter? Tell me loudly!"
The spy hesitated and dared not speak out loud.
Zhao In-young became more and more impatient, shook the wine glass in his hand and said loudly: "Speak loudly! Is the sky falling?"
The spy had to say loudly: "Sir, Zhang Zhun led his army to kill Aoshan Guard!"
Chapter completed!
