Chapter 502 Dutiful son and worthy grandson(1/2)
Governor Yang's army moved forward at normal speed...
But stay in Xuzhou for a while.
At this time, Xuzhou City was still submerged in the turbid current of the Yellow River. The main reason is that the large hole of the Yellow River has not been blocked yet. Under the erosion of the river for a year, this big hole has formed a gap that stretches for nearly one mile. It is a major project to block it. Originally winter was just right, but it has not been done because of some messy things, and it is even more impossible to block this season. Just let the Yellow River continue to flow. Anyway, it has found a new river channel and still merged into the Yellow River downstream. The original main disaster area can be migrated by Yang Xin.
These people are in factories and mines along the Yangtze River.
So it's not in a hurry.
After a brief stay in Xuzhou, Yang Xin continued to go forward along the canal and finally arrived in Yangzhou.
And it was already mid-July.
The wheat harvest in the entire south had been completed long ago. Yang Bangxian, the loyal governor of Jiangxi, could not help but urged the general of Huguang, who was actually the chief general of the Western Front, to attack in order to win the arrival of Governor Yang...
Then he failed.
Yangzhou.
"Although Yang Bangxian reported a loss of 3,000, Luqin suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, but most of them actually ran away."
Yang Huan said.
His arms are fully recovered.
"In addition to a few hundred clans, Lu Qin's main force was actually the 5,000 chieftains army. He recruited 5,000 chieftains army in Shizhou, Yongshun and other places. He originally wanted to use the courage of these guys to recover Quzhou in one fell swoop, so he attacked from Yushan with full confidence. The main force of the Datong Army led by Xu Du was stationed in Quzhou. After learning about it, he also went out to fight. In the end, the two sides fought in Xiazhenxu at the border, with a total of 20,000 official troops against 10,000 Datong Army.
When Lu Qin saw that there were no cavalry on the other side, he attacked the front of the Datong Army by Yang Bangxian's army and chieftains army. He personally led 500 elite cavalry around the mountains to attack the flanks.
The former first attacked with infantry formation under Yang Bangxian's urging.
Needless to say, the result is.
The main forces of the Five Thousand Chiefs Army and the Five Thousand Official Army did not rush to the Datong Army at all.
Yang Bangxian, a stupid pig, didn't even know how to prepare for artillery fire, so he let the infantry rush forward. There were thousands of turtledove guns on the other side firing ten rounds, and the chieftain army collapsed before they could finish a round. They turned around and ran away ten feet away from the Datong Army formation, and they trampled on each other.
The spear formation of the Datong Army behind immediately pushed up.
Yang Bangxian turned around and ran away in fear.
As soon as he ran, the battle situation completely collapsed and everyone ran away.
But Luqin was ambushed.
Because he had to go through more than ten miles of mountains and forests on that route, he found a local gentry as a guide. However, the latter had already contacted Xu, and took them around the forests, while the slaves were hiking in the forests and arrived in Xudu in advance. The latter immediately arranged for people to wait at the designated location. As soon as Lu Qin brought five hundred clerks in, they shot a volley in the forests. If the servants had not tried their best to protect them, Lu Qin would have been captured alive by the Datong Army.
Although he finally broke through the bloody battle, his five hundred clans were left.
Moreover, the Datong Army has occupied Yushan.
After escaping from the mountain, he joined Yang Bangxian and had to retreat to Guangxin with his remaining defeated generals. However, Yang Bangxian stayed in Yushan and prepared to defeat Xu Du and attack Quzhou, and threw all the dozen red barbarian cannons that were forced to attack Quzhou to Datong Army.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Du brought these cannons downstream to Guangxin.
Then use the red cannon to collapse the Guangxin city wall.
Before he entered the city, the gentry of Guangxin began to take the young and strong man to ask Yang Bangxian to think about the people in the city. Yang Bangxian of course understood what they meant. He did not do as he did, and he directly expelled him. In the end, he and Lu Qin had no choice but to abandon Guangxin. Then Xu Du entered Guangxin and continued to pursue. Yang Bangxian and Lu Qin finally ran to Yiyang before stopping. Although Xu Du did not attack Yiyang, he took Xing'an and Qianshan. This was the defeat of the entire Guangxin."
Yang Huan said.
The content of Yang Bangxian's report was completely different from the real content he obtained. Yang Bangxian reported that they fought with Xu Du in Xiazhenxu. The traitors in Yushan attacked behind the scenes, resulting in failure. The spy in Guangxin opened the city to welcome the enemy, resulting in the loss of Guangxin.
Obviously this is fiction.
"Don't worry about these things, just follow Governor Yang's memorial."
Yang Xin said.
"Horse Hejian, how can this work?"
Gao Hongtu said.
"Why can't it be? They are your fellow villagers. You are one of Qingzhou and Jiaozhou, two hundred miles away. Don't be ruthless. He is also loyal to the emperor. Although he lost Guangxin after losing the battle, it is not a serious crime. Let's just take it back. I will tell you that he is valued by my uncle. Even if you participate in him, it will be useless. Instead, you will offend the villagers. Don't tell me that your Gao family will not do business. If you don't cooperate with the gentry in Qingzhou in the future, their Qingzhou Yang family is not easy to mess with."
Yang Xin said.
Gao Hongtu looked at him speechlessly, then left angrily.
"But this pig is indeed a bit stupid."
Yang Xin sighed.
There are red cannons without bringing them to the battlefield. Although it is indeed a bit difficult to push the cannons in the hills, it actually gave way to the infantry and committed suicide when facing the Datong Army, which had become a square formation. Even if you are a cavalry, it would be better. Maybe Xu Du, the Datong Army, had just been trained and was not skilled in the formation change, so he ran away in the face of the cavalry.
But the infantry is just committing suicide!
"Uncle, if you drag it down, they will be really hard to fight."
Yang Huan reminded him.
The Datong Army made rapid progress.
In fact, it has completed the militaryization of the ever-winning military in less than half a year.
According to the information of the Jinyiwei, the Changsheng Army, Ningbo Anti-smuggling Team, and even the Chang Jie Army were all fired, and then the whereabouts were unknown. These totaled nearly 3,000 people, which means that these gentry Su Song sent 3,000 veterans to Xu Du. There were also Dutch people in it, so the weapons and equipment were even less worth mentioning. At this time, not only Songjiang, but also Guangdong-made weapons were passed through Wenzhou, Taizhou even sent to him from Fujian to Xianxia Pass.
This is actually the Southeast gentry united to confront the court. With the help of Xu Du's army, he taught the emperor a profound lesson. Even relying on their support, Xu Du was forming a third army.
The strength is leaps and bounds.
but……
"Don't worry about them, they'll just go there."
Yang Xin said.
The gentry of Jiangsu and Zhejiang should not really let them enter Jiangxi. They supported Xu to teach Tianqi a lesson and not to overthrow the emperor. Therefore, the most ideal thing is that Xu Du is entrenched on the line of Jinhua, Guangxin, Quzhou and Quzhou.
It would not be of any benefit to them to spread the war.
"Governor, Kaiyuan Chen Bingbei sends someone to send a letter to ask for a meeting with the Governor."
The officer guarding outside came in to report.
"Chen Yujie? How did his letter be delivered here?"
Yang Xin said in surprise.
"It is said that I came directly from Liaodong and took a fast ship to transport rice. In order to get faster, I changed the navy's communication ship in Weihai."
The officer said.
"Let him in!"
Yang Xin said.
This is a very urgent matter.
Soon the sender was brought in...
"The guerrilla attack Kong Youde is under the standard of Kaiyuan General's Army."
The latter lie on the ground and bowed.
"Uh, what's your name?"
Yang Xin said in surprise.
"Return to the governor, I have good deeds in the humble position."
The messenger raised his head and said in confusion.
"This name is good. What happened to Chen Yujie to make you hurry up here?"
Yang Xin asked.
Finally found this guy.
At this time, Geng Zhongming had also been promoted to guerrilla under Mao Wenlong, and Kong Youde was also guerrilla. Both guys had a great future. However, Shang Kexi did not join the army. His father was already a general under Mao Wenlong. These guys didn't like to let his son join the army, so Shang Kexi was studying poetry and preparing to take the top scorer in the exam, and had already passed the imperial examination to get fame and fame for the students.
The three major traitors are now on the right path, and Governor Yang is still very sad.
"Returning to the governor, the Buddha from Diaoqi Mountain sent someone to report that a Jiannu envoy arrived in Chahanhot."
Kong Youde said.
"Chennu Envoy?"
Yang Xin said in surprise.
"Yes, it was seen by the monks from Chahanhot with their own eyes. They were a young Jiannu named Sony, but he did not pass from Liaodong, but was sent to Chahanhot by merchants from Zhangjiakou, and he was very respected by the King of Hue.
The Buddha of Diaoshan was afraid that they would unite and would not be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, so he sent someone to tell Chen Bingbei. Chen Bingbei had reported to Sun Jingluo and sent Beizhi to report south to the governor. Chen Bingbei suspected that Jiannu and King Huhua were engaged in any conspiracy. In addition, the Buddha of Diaoshan also said that the King of Huhua sent people to Mobei to find Shuolei. He had sent a monk to Shuolei. If there was any conspiracy, he would notify us in time."
Kong Youde said.
"Lin Danhan, wild boar skin, Shuolei, they want to attack things!"
Yang Xin sneered.
As for the Buddha's move, it was his duty. The large temple in Diaoqi Mountain costs him 10,000 taels of silver every year. In addition, there are more than a dozen small temples built in Baked Flowers and Jintaiji, which were hosted by this temple. The total amount of 20,000 taels is required.
So much money was not for nothing.
