Chapter 20 DEPach troops
It seems that more and more people began to smell the smell of Xing Tianjun's big action. Xing Tianjun began to **, and everyone began to make all kinds of preparations in the autumn harvest.
With the maturity of various crops, after entering mid-August, the autumn harvest began to start in various places. The ordinary people who have been busy for a year looked at the grain in their own land and laughed one by one. Although they had worked hard for more than half a year, they always saw the fruits of their own land. I finally don't have to worry about my stomach anymore.
And Xing Tianjun also began to collect grain. Although most of their plots were exempted from grain in the first year, they could still exchange oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, cloth, agricultural tools and other daily necessities for the surplus grain in the hands of the people. In a short period of time, a large amount of grain was harvested, which greatly filled the grain warehouse. Get up.
On the tenth day of September, the generals of all battalions rushed to Lianhua Village one after another. Even Wang Chengping and Li Lingfeng, who were sent by Xiao Tianjian after the Spring Festival, sneaked back to Lianhua Village in disguise and were personally welcomed by Xiao Tianjian in Lianhua Village.
Although it took less than half a year, Wang Chengping, who was sent by Xiao Tianjian, started to be active in Jinzhong and Jinbei.
With his understanding of various places in Jinbei and the connections he left when he was a horse thief, in just half a year, he pulled up a team of horse thieves with more than 2,000 people between Shuozhou and Datong in the north of Jin. He often went out to the territory of the Mongols and plundered a large number of cattle, sheep and horses. After grabbing it back, he solved their food problem and got a lot of war horses, and then found a way to transfer them back to the Xingtian Army to enrich the number of war horses of the Xingtian Army.
And Li Lingfeng was not bad. He simply took more than 20 of his men all the way to the Yangyuan area, pulled up a team among the exiles, and began to fight against the government. From time to time, he would take hundreds of his cavalry to the area of Zhangjiakou and rob the merchants who colluded with Jiannu for a short time. It was also a stormy thing, and the robbed goods were thrown to the Fan family's shop in Datong. At the same time, some good horses would be transferred back to the Xing Tianjun from time to time.
In addition to their two generals, a group of subordinates they took away were scattered all over Shanxi, pulling up more than a dozen large and small teams in the area of Jinzhong, specializing in making trouble for the government. They were restless all over Shanxi, and they secretly contacted Feng Gouzi to accept the weapons provided by Xing Tianjun. Support, and can get certain material support from Fanjia's intelligence. The government has repeatedly suppressed them in various places, which can be said to be in vain, making them gradually showing signs of sitting up.
In the past six months, Wang Chengping and Li Lingfeng can be said to have provided great support for the hiding of Xing Tianjun, so that Shanxi could not draw troops at all to suppress the Xing Tianjun, which greatly eased the pressure of the government on the territory under the jurisdiction of Xing Tianjun, and also provided a lot of materials and funds for Xing Tianjun.
When he heard that Xiao Tianjian recruited the two of them to come back to discuss the matter, Wang Chengping and Li Lingfeng immediately handed over the team at hand to the deputy. Xingye took a few relatives and casually rushed back to the jurisdiction of Xing Tianjun.
Their actions, of course, were greatly praised by Xiao Tianjian, which made them quite proud of it. They didn't dare to do it, and promised to continue to follow Xiao Tianjian's arrangement.
After gathering in Lianhuazhai in public, Xiao Tianjian told his plan. After listening to Xiao Tianjian's plan, the generals' eyes were shining.
Originally, they thought that Xiao Tianjian was going to expand his territory in Shanxi this time, but they didn't think that Xiao Tianjian would turn his eyes to Henan at once, so they would fight next. Yan Chongxi stood up on the spot and asked to take the lead and take the lead to Henan to prepare for picking up Xiao Tianjian.
And Luo Li was not willing to show weakness. He jumped up to grab the first position. Li Shuanzhu and Liu Bao also did not give in to each other and asked them to send them to take the lead.
Xiao Tianjian raised his hand to stop the scramble and said to them, "Don't fight. If you don't send troops to Henan, the key is to see how well Gao Ping fought in this battle first! I have made a decision on who to take to Henan this time, and it's useless for you to argue!
Playing Gaoping is to test the combat effectiveness of each battalion. If anyone can't fight well, then get ready to sit on the cold bench! Don't even think about going to Henan! Of course, I will lead my department to Henan, and naturally there will be people in my home. If all of them go to Henan, what should we do here?
Our current jurisdiction will be our foundation in the future. Almost all of our foundations are here, and there will never be any difference here. Otherwise, no matter how well Henan plays, once there is a loss here, all the efforts we have made in the past two years will be copied! So who should go? I have my own arrangement in my heart. You just need to follow the arrangement!"
"Isn't it just a Gaoping County? With the strength of our second battalion and the two township barracks in Qinshui, it is enough to take him! This battle will be handed over to our second battalion!" As soon as Luo Li heard this, he immediately jumped out and shouted.
"Where can you use the second battalion to fight Gaoping! The second battalion is stationed in Qinshui County. In order to guard against the officers and troops in Jiangzhou and Pingyang Prefecture, I'm afraid they can't free up their hands. On the contrary, our third and fourth battalions and teaching battalions are more sufficient! I think it's better to let our three battalions go!" Li Shuanzhu was afraid that Luo Li would grab his meritorious service, so he also stood up and said, and his words were immediately supported by Liu Bao and Liu Yaoben, who could already speak here, and suppressed Luo Li's limelight for a while.
However, because Yan Chongxi guarded the area of Yuanqu County during this period, it was far away from Gaoping, so Yan Chongxi did not fight.
Xiao Tianjian waved his hand to let the generals retreat and smiled at them, "You don't have to fight again!" Although Gao Ping is small, the government can also see the importance of Gao Ping to Zezhou. Once Gao Ping is lost, the whole territory of Zezhou will fall into our hands, so Gao Ping may not be as easy as you think!
Feng Gouzi has found that there are 2,000 officers and soldiers stationed in Gaoping County, and with the local villagers, the total number of troops is about 4,000! Moreover, in Lu'an Prefecture, the government also has more than 8,000 soldiers, stationed in several places south of Lu'an Prefecture. Once we move Gaoping, these officers and soldiers in Lu'an Prefecture will not sit idly by. They will definitely send troops to Gaoping and let go of us!
So listen to my orders! Luo Li!"
"The end will be!" After Luo Li received the order, he immediately jumped out and shouted.
"I'll give you a general order. I'll order you to go back to your camp tomorrow and gather a battalion of township barracks in the east of Qinshui County. Immediate troops to attack Sizhuang Town and Yonglu Township north of Gaoping, and cut off the official road between Gaoping and Lu'anfu. Once the officers and troops in Lu'anfu want to go south to rescue Gaoping, block them for me. Bring them back to Lu'an Mansion! If you let a soldier in Lu'an Mansion enter Gaoping, then come to see me!" Xiao Tianjian began to arrange the deployment of the battle.
After hearing this, Luo Li immediately straightened his chest and replied, "The last general will get the order! The general can rest assured that the officers and soldiers of Lu'an Prefecture will make them unable to reach Gaoping! If a person comes over, the general will ask me!"
"Li Shuanzhu!"
"The end will be!" Li Shuanzhu immediately stood up.
"You and Zhao Erlu led the third battalion, set out from Zezhou, bypassed Zezhou City, and attacked Dayang Town and Ma Village Town in the south of Gaoping. I will give you seven days to fight to Gaoping County! If you can't beat Gao Ping in seven days, you can go back to Zezhou Camp by yourself!" Xiao Tianjian continued to arrange.
"The last general gets the order!" Li Shuanzhu and Zhao Er donkey immediately straightened their chests to receive the order, and then retreated to the column.
"Liu Bao! You lead the fourth battalion, also bypass Zezhou City, take the east line along the official road to attack Gaoping County, first hit Hexi Town, and then meet Sanying under Gaoping County Town!"
"The last general gets the order!" After Liu Bao took the order loudly, he also returned to the column.
"Liu Yaoben, you lead the new teaching camp and keep an eye on the officers and soldiers in Zezhou City. As long as they have action and want to send troops to rescue Gao Ping, beat them back to me. Don't let them leave Zezhou City! This is your first serious fight. Don't let me down!"
Liu Yao's excited face turned red, and he immediately came out and shouted, "General, don't worry, our teaching battalion will never send a soldier from Zezhou to Gaoping!"
"Good! Huang Shengqiang, there is basically no big arrangement for the gun battalion. You personally bring two sentry battalions, take six six-pound guns, twelve three-pound guns follow Liu Bao's fourth battalion, and rush to Gaoping County. After meeting with the third battalion, give you two days to open the gate of Gaoping County and take Gaoping County!"
Huang Shengqiang didn't say anything, and he was ordered to retreat.
Listening to Xiao Tianjian mobilize the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Battalion with the teaching battalion and the artillery battalion, but there was nothing to do in the first battalion. Yan Chongxi quit and immediately said, "General, our battalion has not been active for a long time. What are we doing in Gaoping this time?"
Xiao Tianjian smiled and said to Yan Chongxi, "Don't worry. There are a lot of things left for you!" Don't be impatient. I'll tell you what I'm going to do in your camp later! Wang Chengping! Where is Li Lingfeng?
As soon as Wang Chengping and Li Lingfeng heard their names, they immediately stood up and shouted, "The last will!"
"You two have a force now. It seems that you can't use it to fight against Gao Ping, but this time against Gao Ping, Shanxi will definitely be alert, and may even think that we are going to use troops against Lu'an, so in order to contain the Shanxi government, you two should not be idle after this trip. It's over! Find a way to lead the troops to make some trouble for the Shanxi government. It is best to mobilize all the brothers in Jinzhong and put pressure on Shuozhou and Xinzhou together to contain the army in the north, so that it is impossible to mobilize heavy troops into Lu'an Mansion!
And recruiting you back this time is not just about arranging to fight in Gaoping County. You will often work outside in the future, and I can't be too generous! So in addition to letting you come back and meet everyone, I have also prepared a batch of birds for you. This time when you go back, you will also take them away, but the quantity can't be given too much, otherwise anyone will know your relationship with Xing Tianjun. This is my support for you!
What's more, if the news is good, Lu Xiangsheng will soon take Tianxiong's army to Datong to garrison. For Lu Xiangsheng and his Tianxiong's army, I don't think you should make too much trouble for them. Lu Xiangsheng's military affairs, the governor of the northern transfer, is mainly to prevent the invasion of Jiannu, so if it is Jiannu's invading again. In the area of Xuanda University, you can't take the opportunity to cause trouble for him, but also help the Tianxiong Army when necessary to deal with the invading of Jiannu together!"
(It's Monday again, old habit, first ask for the red vote in your hand, we must make a habit of reading and voting! Ha ha!)
