Chapter 1241 Accidentally Encountered the Enemy
The post road in Shanxi, from Quwo to Lingshi, generally goes north along the bank of the Fen River.

However, after arriving at Yitang Horse Station in Jiexiu, there was a certain degree of separation between the two.

Sun Chuanting, the former governor of Shanxi, was very familiar with the roads here, so Zhang Dashou, who had more cavalry, disembarked and changed horses to follow the post road to pursue the remnants of the Ming army, while Wei Zhiyou, who had more infantry, abandoned his horses and boarded the boat and walked by water.

Different from Wei Zhiyou's tribe, Zhang Dashou's tribe, who had fled abroad for many years, plundered many horses, mules, donkeys, cattle and other livestock for transportation before turning to Zhang Shun.

Therefore, coupled with the capture of the war horses of the Beijing camp this time, the [-] people under Zhang Dashou's command have completely realized the "muscle transformation".

Therefore, under the leadership of Sun Chuanting, two battalions of Wei Zhiyou and Zhang Dashou with [-] people passed through the waterway together, successively passed through Jiexiu, Pingyao, and Qixian County, and went straight to Xugou County.

From Lingshi to Xugou for more than [-] li, it only took two days for the rebels to gallop all the way.

The general who defeated the Shenshu camp was "Huang Chuangzi" Huang Degong. This man was good at wielding an iron whip. He was brave and invincible.

However, after all, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and the "Huang Chuangzi" had to flee along the post road to Taiyuan with his tail between his legs.

This day, Zhang Dashou, who was full of stars, had just passed the Jialing Station, and felt a little at ease.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a station for sixty miles. After passing the Jialing, the next stop was Tongge Station.

Tongge Station is only [-] miles away from the bank of the Fen River, just enough to be the horns of Wei Zhiyou, who was going upstream, so Zhang Dayu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Come here, send a messenger to ask General Sun, can the two sides meet near Tongge Station?" Zhang Dashou couldn't help shouting loudly.

It is said that they meet, but in fact, it is not necessary for the two sides to join forces.

It's just two soldiers and horses, one on water and one on land. Although there is not much difference in marching speed, after all, there are first and last.

Along the way, the two sides have sent messengers several times in order to adjust the speed in time to prevent the distance between the two soldiers and horses from being too large.

"Decree!" A messenger had already received the order, turned around and galloped west.

Only then did Zhang Dashou turn his head to encourage the soldiers and said: "Everyone, work harder, the Tongge Station is fifty miles ahead."

"At that time, we will not only be able to unite the two battalions, but also supply some food and grass, so that everyone can have a hot meal."

Due to the continuous attack and pursuit in the past few days, in fact, Zhang Dashou's troops almost relied on dry food to satisfy their hunger along the way.

After all, people are not machines. In addition to the simple needs of eating and drinking, there are also needs such as comfort.

Soldiers can survive on dry food in a short period of time, but after a long period of time, it is inevitable that resentment will abound and morale will be low.

When Zhang Dashou shouted, all the soldiers under his command really cheered up, and they all laughed and said: "That's a good thing, after drinking hot soup and hot water, I feel that all my strength has come."

Hot water and hot soup sound simple, but in fact, for people on long-distance marches, it not only satisfies the needs of the stomach and intestines physically, but also has a soothing effect on the spirit.

Zhang Dashou saw that the morale of his men and horses was slightly lifted, he couldn't help kicking the horse's belly, and prepared to rush to Tongge as soon as possible.

"Report, emergency military situation, urgent military situation!" At this moment, a scout suddenly came galloping.

Zhang Dashou was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped by the side of the road.

Not long after, the scout rushed to the front and jumped down without thinking about reining in his horse.

However, Zhang Dashou was not in the mood to praise his superb horse skills, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter, tell me!"

"Huang Degong of the Ming army retreated to the Tongge post station, but he couldn't hold on. A large number of scouts of the Ming army appeared nearby. It is suspected that the main force of the Ming army has made a big move!" The scout couldn't help reporting quickly.

Since ancient times, those who make good use of soldiers have their own laws.Regardless of the Ming army, the Houjin army or the rebel army, whenever the army is dispatched, scouts are dispatched.

Although everyone does not have a specific standard, there are generally rules for the number of scouts and the number of miles dispatched.

Like the scouts of the Ming army, there are about [-] to [-] people in a battalion, and the detection distance is about ten to twenty miles.

Except for special circumstances, more soldiers will be sent to increase the mileage of the investigation.

Like the Zhang Dashou Department of the Rebel Army, this time, in order to pursue Huang Degong's Department, which was also dominated by cavalry, the scouts were sent forward forty or fifty miles.

Since there are a large number of scouts this time, they must not be the ones that Huang Degong's thousand remaining soldiers can dispatch.

"How much do you estimate?" Zhang Dashhou frowned and asked involuntarily.

"According to the number of scouts, the Ming army should be between [-] and [-]!" The scout pondered for a moment, uncertain.

"About [-] people?" Zhang Dashou frowned upon hearing this.

Regardless of whether the Ming army that suddenly appeared was [-] or [-], it was not something he could deal with with a battalion of troops.

The key question is, even if he joins forces with Sun Chuanting, can he deal with so many officers and soldiers?

Now he has two choices, one is to sell Sun Chuanting and run away.

Another option is to join forces with Sun Chuanting and fight the Ming army to the end.

One is Zhang Dashou's daily battle with the Ming army all year round, and he is sure to bring the team back unscathed.

The other is to go against the trend completely, and maybe both battalions will get in.

Which is right and which is wrong, how should we choose?Zhang Dashou couldn't help pondering.

"Uncle, if you don't leave at this time, let's wait for the officers and soldiers to surround me, I will die!" Zhang Dashou's nephew couldn't help but said anxiously when he saw that he was delayed in giving orders.

"If uncle is jealous of King Shun, I will flee to the nearby mountains, who can find it?"

"As long as we have soldiers and horses, whichever dominates the world, don't bribe us!"

"Escape into the mountains?" Zhang Dah Shou was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help clapping his hands, "Why didn't I think of that!"

"Then let's go now?"

"Let's go now, pass my order, the whole army approaches the Fenhe River, and retreats south along the river!" Zhang Dashou couldn't help shouting loudly.

"Okay... hey, that's not right, uncle, this is..." Zhang Dashou's nephew was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help but said in surprise.

"Don't go!" Zhang Dashou said with a smile, "You don't know the power of King Shun, how dare you gossip here?"

"What are the [-] to [-] Ming troops afraid of? This time, King Shun dispatched an army of [-] to sweep across all directions. No one in the world can stop him!"

"In my opinion, when it comes to heroes in the world, there is nothing like King Shun. Shun's destiny lies with him, how can he bear it!"

Zhang Dashou figured it out, he had only accumulated [-] elite soldiers after many years of fighting, if he went away with King Shun this time, the [-] soldiers who were stationed in Huozhou would definitely be abandoned.

So there are only three thousand people left to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, how can they be rich?
Now King Shun has [-] troops under his command, and [-] troops under his personal command to attack the Ming Dynasty. The change of dynasty is just today. How can there be a reason for "picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon"?
If I and Sun Chuanting join forces together, I have boats and horses, and if I can fight, I will fight, and if I can't fight, I will leave, what can the Ming army do to me?

If it's a big deal, it's a big deal to hide in the deep mountains, waiting for King Shun to defeat the enemy, and the hard work will not be lost!
Thinking of this, Zhang Dashou couldn't help shouting loudly: "Listen to my order, and go to the bank of the Fen River, there must be no mistakes!"
