Everyone in the courtyard was thinking about Zhou Tingru's words. Qian Qianyi had been an official for many years and knew the vicinity of Hanzhong very well. He thought about it for a while and then immediately reacted. After thinking about the meaning of Zhou Tingru's words, Qian Qianyi's eyes
Something has changed, and there is a chill in the chest. Zhou Tingru, this person is really too sinister.
Zhou Tingru said that there were not many choices left for Zhang Xianzhong, but in fact, there was only one choice left for Zhang Xianzhong, which was to cross Ziwu Road and then enter Guanzhong to plunder. Will Zhang Xianzhong attack Ziwu Road? The answer is yes, because Zhang Xianzhong
Xianzhong was too greedy, but greed is not enough. As long as there are enough benefits, there is nothing that Zhang Xianzhong would not dare to do.
How many of those who can participate in tonight's banquet are fools? Cheng Jiming raised his eyebrows, and there was actually a smile in his eyes, "Master Zhou, do you mean to force Zhang Xianzhong to attack Guanzhong?"
Only then did Zhou Tingru show a smile. He nodded and said slowly, "What Master Cheng said is right, but there is one thing Master Cheng said that is not quite accurate. Zhang Xianzhong is afraid of death and greedy for gain, so I am lowering my official position."
It is expected that this thief will not directly break through Chaijia Pass and enter the pass. Please think about it, Chaijia Pass is located in the central pass of Guanzhong. One man can guard the pass and ten thousand people cannot open it. It is also close to Xi'an, and Governor Chen's army is on the side.
Even if Zhang Xianzhong had great courage, he would not take such a big risk to collect firewood at Jiaguan. If he did not collect firewood at Jiaguan, Wang Qing would definitely use his little cleverness to cross Shangluo Road to the east and enter Jingshan Bypass to the north.
Behind Guguan."
After a slight pause, Zhou Tingru continued, "To lure Zhang Xianzhong to Guanzhong, and to use the rogue king in northern Shaanxi for his own use, these two families will definitely work together to plot the Hetao. How can the northern Shanxi frontier army ignore the safety of the Hetao by then?
, there will definitely be a battle with the rogue bandits. If the strength of the bandits under Zhang Xianzhong and Wang Ziyong is greatly reduced, and Yuan Chonghuan is appointed as the commander, it will be much easier to mobilize the troops to destroy the bandits. At that time, Wang Ziyong and Zhang Xianzhong, not to mention guarding northern Shaanxi
, whether he can survive or not is a matter of course. Of course, if the rogue bandits win, the result will be self-evident. At that time, the northern Shanxi frontier army will suffer heavy losses, and northern Shanxi will definitely be unstable. By then, you may not be able to find the opportunity to intervene in northern Shanxi.
Affairs?"
What a murderer with a borrowed knife, it was really a poisonous plan. Cheng Jiming half-opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to react. What a wonderful plan, what a wonderful plan, no matter who loses when Zhang Xianzhong tackles a key problem, it will be a serious problem for the cabinet. "What a wonderful plan."
, do everything as Mr. Zhou said!"
So far, no one has spoken out to refute, because if this plan goes well, it will be of great benefit to Donglin officials.
In the following days, as envoys from various countries left one after another, Tie Mo also left the capital with the convoy. Just two days ago, Sun Chengzong also embarked on the return journey. When they parted, it was obvious that Sun Chengzong was in a heavy mood
Obviously, the conversation with Zhu Youjian that night made him more worried, but Tie Mo was smart enough not to ask any more questions. When returning to northern Shanxi, Sun Miaowen asked the old coachman to follow him in the carriage, and got on the road halfway.
Xiao Ruxue's car.
Tie Mo was helpless about this. Sun Miaowen was determined to deny her marriage to the Kong family. After four days on the road, the convoy slowly returned to Zhangbei. Before she had time to drink hot tea, she heard
A piece of news that makes people speechless. Not long ago, Zhang Xianzhong, who was entrenched in Dongchuan, suddenly came out of Jianmen Pass and captured Nanzheng with lightning speed. Nanzheng was too close to Hanzhong, almost close to it.
Close at hand. As tens of thousands of rogue bandits poured into Nanzheng, Hanzhong City officials fled in a panic, causing Hanzhong to become an undefended city. Faced with this situation, Zhang Xianzhong would certainly not be polite.
On the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Xianzhong called his adopted son Ai Keqi to his house and gave detailed instructions. Not long after, Ai Keqi led his troops to leave Nanzheng. Just when everyone thought that Ai Keqi would immediately
When he captured Hanzhong City, which was just around the corner, he suddenly changed direction, and with only two thousand cavalry as the vanguard, he raided Shiquan City to the east. Shiquan City was defenseless and soon fell into the hands of the bandits.
Later, Ai Keqi threatened Han Yin and directed his troops towards Shangluo Road.
The rogue Aikeqi led his troops to attack Hanyin. In a way, it was a new approach, because at this time Chen Qiyu, the governor of the three sides, focused almost all his attention on Ziwu Road. The army was concentrated in the north and south of Xi'an Prefecture, and there was no extra
The troops were sent to garrison Shangluo Road. But what surprised everyone was that before the city was broken, the commander-in-chief Guo Zhongchi who was stationed in Hanyin actually issued a withdrawal order. Now Hanyin City still has four thousand soldiers to fight.
Guo Zhongchi's order was to surrender Hanyin City. Many soldiers refused to obey, but military orders are military orders. Amidst the shouts and curses of the Hanyin people, thousands of Hanzhong soldiers and horses actually fled out of the city from the north gate, and the entire Hanyin City was destroyed.
They were put under the swords and guns of the traitors. The soldiers and horses of Hanzhong retreated so suddenly that many people did not expect this. At this time, even if they wanted to escape, it was too late, so the people of Hecheng became prisoners of the traitors.
Hanyin fell into the hands of thieves, and Hanzhong was also taken into the hands of Liu Wenxiu. For a while, the people near Xi'an Prefecture were panicked, especially in the four counties of Lantian, Zhen'an, Shangzhou, and Shanyang in the east.
The situation of rich families fleeing. Those wealthy families can escape, but the common people have no place to escape. If they were not forced to do so, they would never leave the place where they have lived all their lives. People fled to Xi'an one after another, which also made the city of Xi'an abnormal.
It was crowded. I don’t know if it was a ghost. Normally, the bandits had to occupy the favorable location and were not allowed to plunder everywhere. But this time after they occupied Hanyin and Hanzhong, they did not do any harm to the surrounding counties.
Could it be that Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates had a change of temper? Of course it's impossible. It's not that Zhang Xianzhong didn't want to rob, but that he couldn't rob. He knew very well that the reason why he was able to successfully capture Hanzhong Mansion was because of the officers and soldiers' release. If there was a massive robbery,
, causing public resentment to boil, then the officers and soldiers entrenched in the Central Plains and Hangu Pass will immediately rush into Shangluo Road, cooperate with Shaanxi Chen Qiyu, Liu Yingyu and Cao Wenzhao to jointly wipe out the Hanzhong Prefecture rebels. Zhang Xianzhong is not afraid, but
Don't want to get into that trouble.
Although he plundered Hanzhong Prefecture unscrupulously, Zhang Xianzhong was happy enough to obtain the two strong cities of Hanyin and Hanzhong. Hanzhong was worthy of being an important place on the trade route, with all kinds of goods available, and more importantly, the treasury still had a lot of money and grain.
, these tens of thousands of stones of rice and grain are enough to support Huaihe for two months.
The rogue bandits under Zhang Xianzhong quickly captured the entire Hanzhong, which was really unexpected, and Tie Mo was not a fool. This was too strange. No matter how useless the Hanzhong soldiers and horses were, they would never be so useless. It is impossible to say that there was no instruction from the Sixth Department of the Cabinet.
Impossible. Since the loss of Hanzhong, not a single Hanzhong official has been severely punished, which shows.
Tie Mo was no longer the Wu Xia Amen he had been before. He could guess what the cabinet was planning. It was just to get the two bandits, Wang Ziyong and Zhang Xianzhong, to return to Shaanxi together and push the bandits into a fight with the border army.
It would be a lose-lose situation for both sides. We have seen through it all, but we cannot ignore it. Tie Mo cannot give up the Loop to the rogue bandits. In short, we must not let the rogue bandits go north easily. But it is unrealistic to immediately mobilize troops into northern Shaanxi. In desperation, Tie Mo
I had no choice but to send an urgent letter to Cao Wenzhao first, and also sent someone to Datong Mansion to inform Mangui, hoping that Mangui would send troops first. It's not that Tiemo is stingy, there are too many things going on in northern Shanxi, and there are still many things happening under his nose.
There is a more important matter that needs to be dealt with, and that is the matter of Na Mu Zhong.
It is said that Cao Wenzhao's army was stationed in Sanshui County at this time, forming a confrontation with Wang Ziyong's army in Ningzhou. The situation in Shaanxi now is different from before. Wang Ziyong took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, and the officers and soldiers focused all their attention.
When he was in the Central Plains, he suddenly went in the opposite direction, crossed the Yellow River and headed north, returning to Shaanxi. When he first returned to Shaanxi, it could be said that this was an unowned land, and Wang Ziyong could attack wherever he wanted, plus he was halfway there.
Having gained a lot of benefits from Shanxi, Wang Ziyong's strength quickly expanded. In less than a year, when Chen Qiyu and Cao Wenzhao led their troops back to Shaanxi, they found that Wang Ziyong was no longer half-dead as before.
In such a state, Wang Zi held hundreds of thousands of rebel troops and occupied the entire northern Shaanxi Province, and his life was extremely prosperous.
Now Wang Ziyong's strength can be said to be comparable to that of Wang Jiayin before, and his strength even surpasses the current Zhang Xianzhong. The most ridiculous thing is that Wang Ziyong doesn't know whose advice he listened to, and changed his previous behavior. This time
After taking northern Shaanxi, there was no massive looting. Instead, they imitated the imperial court and carried out various measures to calm the people. Especially in Xiangle, Zhenning and other places that are relatively close to Ningzhou, not only did they not loot, but if any of the people were really
Unable to survive, the peasant army actually distributed food. Wang Ziyong's measures indeed won a lot of people's support. Many families sent their young men to Wang Ziyong's command. This was also the main reason why Wang Ziyong's military strength was able to expand rapidly.
.
Wang Ziyong changed his face, which directly boosted the morale of his subordinates. They were united. Liu Yingyu and Cao Wenzhao jointly sent troops to attack Zhenning, but the peasant army and the local people were able to hold back. After receiving Tie Mo's message
When he wrote the letter, Cao Wenzhao was worried. After all, Cao Bianjiao had little experience. After reading the letter, he complained, "The Iron Supervisor is not particular. We have been fighting with Wang Ziyong for so long and there has been no progress. He also asked us to
Help me fight Zhang Xianzhong."
Cao Wenzhao glared at him and cursed angrily: "You idiot, stop talking nonsense, what do you know? If Zhang Xianzhong arrives in northern Shaanxi, maybe we will have an opportunity. Go and prepare and tell Liu Yingyu,
Let's withdraw from Sanshui tomorrow and go south to Ziwu Road, trying to drive Zhang Xianzhong and these traitors over. In addition, you don't have to go with me. You can lead the troops to the bend of the river first and guard the loop. In a few days, Hei Yunlong and Lou
The two generals from Daji will also lead their troops to Hequ."
Cao Wenzhao could see further than Cao Bianjiao. Not to mention his personal relationship with Tie Mo, but based on the situation in northern Shaanxi, he also wanted to help. The reason why Wang Ziyong was difficult to deal with was because Wang Ziyong had different styles from the rogue bandits in the past.
The same thing is to bring peace to the people without disturbing the people. Regardless of how long Wang Ziyong can persist in doing this, at least for now it is really troublesome. But Zhang Xianzhong is different. Zhang Xianzhong is famous for being vicious and vicious. If he returns to northern Shaanxi,
It's hard to overthrow northern Shaanxi. The common people can't tell who is Wang Ziyong and who is Zhang Xianzhong. In the eyes of the people, they are all rebels. When the time comes, Wang Ziyong's good reputation, which he has managed to earn with great difficulty, will instantly make Zhang Xianzhong lose to him.
ruined.
When the situation in northern Shaanxi was confusing, Tie Mo had already set his sights on the Ahe Tumen Department. The trouble here must be solved as soon as possible, so that he could free up his hands to clean up the chaos in northern Shaanxi.
The northern Shanxi frontier army had just left Wulan City and before they had even left the boundaries of the Hanhai Grassland, the Ahe Tumen tribe had already taken the lead in attacking the nearby Hongji La tribe. The Hong Ji La tribe was also a famous tribe on the Mongolian grassland. Genghis Khan Temujin had
It comes from this tribe, so the Hongji La tribe is also called the Golden Tribe. Unfortunately, to this day, apart from the name, the Hong Ji La tribe is not worth mentioning.
Namuzhong ordered the attack on the Hongji tribe, all because of Tajimu of the Hongji tribe. The affairs of the Ahetumen tribe are not a secret. Lin Danhan is definitely not the only one in the Mongolian tribes who wants to marry Namuzhong, Tajimu is also one
Tajimu still has some ideas. He feels that if he can marry Namu Zhong, then he will have tens of thousands of warriors under his command out of thin air. Without a single soldier or a drop of blood, Hongji Labu can return to its former self.
He is so powerful that he can even compete with Lin Dan Khan.
It's a pity that Tajimu overestimated his reputation. Namuzhong directly drove Tajimu's envoy out, and then ordered the dispatch of troops to the Hongji tribe. In these years, Ahe Tumen has survived in the cracks, and Namuzhong wants to watch Lin Danhan
Living with Huang Taiji's face, he was angry enough. Unexpectedly, that Tajimu would dare to come up and take a bite. Her Namu Zhong was not something that any cat or dog could touch.
Namuzhong is a typical Mongolian woman. If something like this happens, of course she has to teach her a lesson. If you don’t dare to touch Lin Danhan and Huang Taiji, why can’t you touch Tajimu? That’s it, Hongji Labu and Ah Tumen
A conflict broke out between the two tribes, and the result was that Hongji Labu was beaten to a pulp. At this time, Tajimu did not dare to challenge Namu Zhong even if he had ten courages, so he dedicated all the wealth he had accumulated in half his life to Lin Danhan
, for the sake of gold and silver treasure, Lin Danhan agreed to Tajimu's request.
Lin Danhan has coveted Namu Zhong for a long time, and he is a bit petty by nature. Ever since he learned that Namu Zhong was connected to northern Shanxi, Lin Danhan had an unknown fire in his heart. Why did the dignified grassland girl prefer that Han man?
?
Under Tajimu's instigation, Lin Danhan immediately ordered troops to attack the Ahe Tumen tribe, trying to force Namuzhong to marry him before the northern Shanxi border army intervened. Namuzhong did not want to simply accept her fate, she could
He had never taken a fancy to Lin Dan Khan, so he summoned the tribe leaders and gathered troops to fight Lin Dan Khan's men.
Suddenly, the situation in the Liaodong grassland suddenly changed, and all eyes were focused on it!
