please make me king

Chapter 1275 Siege
"The rebel army recruits soldiers, and the monthly salary is one stone; regardless of rice or millet, they will be paid out every month!" Just after dawn, Jiang Xiang's hoarse voice rang out outside the camp again like a chicken announcing the dawn.

Hearing Xuanda Governor Zhang Fengyi and Datong Governor Ye Tinggui curse: "Shameless, shameless!"

It turned out that since Song Xiance left the rebel army's camp near Taiyuan, Zhang Shun had never fought against the Ming army, and only sent troops to make noise outside the Ming army's city and camp every day, "to recruit soldiers".

The military pay of Xuanda and Dazheng is not high, even the town bidders and supervising bidders are only about one or two taels, and they owe a lot of money.

The rebel army set a standard of one stone per month, and the men under Zhang Fengyi and Ye Tinggui, who had been attracted earlier, were ready to move.

At the beginning, Zhang Fengyi, governor of Xuanda, and Ye Tinggui, governor of Datong, didn't know the power of it, and laughed: "People say that 'Shun Bandit' is good at fighting, but looking at it today, it doesn't look like a general, but like a merchant!"

As a result, under hesitation, after a few days, the number of people in the camp was lightened as usual, and more than a thousand people were suddenly lost.

Now Zhang Fengyi and Ye Tinggui couldn't sit still anymore, they hurried into Taiyuan City and went to visit Zuo Governor Zhu Xieyuan.

"Master, now we are few thieves, if we don't attack now, when will we wait?" After the two sat down, Zhang Fengyi spoke first.

"No hurry, no hurry! The Governor has already dispatched Fu Qingzhu and other cadres of students to Qin." Zhu Xie said with great presence.

"Although the soldiers of the 'Shun Bandit' are sharp, their hearts are not aligned, and their subordinates are mixed. Given time, they will definitely retreat without fighting!"

As soon as Zhu Xieyuan said this, Ye Tinggui quickly reminded: "What the supervisor said is true, but I'm just afraid that in time, it's not known whether the 'Shun Bandits' will retreat without fighting, but there are few soldiers in my army! "

"Our two troops are no match for the governor's subordinates who are all stationed in the city. The governor only needs to lock the city gate, and the soldiers will naturally have no way out."

"But in our two battalions, the soldiers are ignorant and don't know loyalty. On the contrary, they are short-sighted and greedy for thieves' property, so that they flee sooner or later. They are hard to guard against and are repeatedly banned."

"In a few days, thousands of people have been lost!"

"In the long run, the country will not have a country, and the army will not have an army. What can I do?"

Zhu Xieyuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, he never thought that the matter was so serious.

Originally according to his plan, the "shun thief" stationed his troops under the fortified city of Taiyuan, and the thieves were everywhere in Qin.

When the time comes, the "shun thief" is in a dilemma, and he will take the opportunity to attack again, breaking the thief under the city in one fell swoop.

In the end, the "shun thief" was troubled both at home and abroad, and the huge force fell apart.

I used both kindness and power to regain the lost ground, and reproduce the story of quelling the "Luxuan Rebellion" back then.

If this thief can be put down, "go out of the general and enter the prime minister, you can get rid of the big trouble", and it will not be a problem to be named the posthumous duke.

It's just a good strategic plan, how can it be implemented like this?
Zhu Xieyuan hesitated for a while, not knowing how to deal with it.

Zhang Fengyi couldn't help suggesting: "Since Mr. Zhu doesn't want to fight, and there's nothing to defend, why don't you surround him and wait for the time to change?"

Zhu Xieyuan was taken aback when he heard the words, and his eyes lit up immediately.

That's right, since the "shun thief" is waiting with a high base and a deep ditch.Why don't I dig a trench to surround it?

In this way, there will be no loss of hands, and there will be no danger of soldiers escaping!

Thinking of this, Zhu Xieyuan couldn't help but ordered decisively: "Okay, just as you said, tomorrow all the troops will be raised to surround this thief!"

But the next morning, Zhang Shun managed to get up early, inspected the camp, and was about to return to his tent before going back to sleep.

Suddenly someone shouted: "Your Highness King Shun, you are making it easier for me to find you!"

Zhang Shun turned his head to look, but it was Sun Chuanting who came rushing out of breath.

"The Ming army outside the city started fighting, and it seems that they can't wait any longer!" Sun Chuanting couldn't help reporting.

"Oh?" Zhang Shun couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly shouted, "Let's go, let's go to the watchtower!"

Not long after, the two of them climbed up to the towering watchtower on hands and feet. Looking north, they saw the flags of the camp outside Taiyuan City and its north side rising like clouds with the wind, and the sound of people neighing and horses screaming.

"This old guy finally moved!" Zhang Shun couldn't help clapping his hands and said with a smile.

Although Zhu Xieyuan's men are not many, at least there are [-] elites.

If he sticks to the defense, even if Zhang Shun's [-] troops arrive, he may not be able to take it down for a while.

Now that it was so easy to trick him out, how could Zhang Shun not be overjoyed?

"Then how does King Shun plan to fight this man?" Seeing that the Ming army was mobilized, Sun Chuanting couldn't help being very happy, and quickly asked the rebel army's next move.

"Don't worry, let them attack first, and wait until the rebels lose their spirit, and it won't be too late for the rebels to fight back!" Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"Let Xu Quan's musketeers defend the camp, Zhang Dashou's infantry prepare to counterattack, and Yang Chengzu's cavalry are in charge of covering up the attack!"

Zhang Shun, who had been planning for a long time, made the plan clear and clear, and he couldn't help but open his mouth and issued the military order.

"Okay, my subordinates will pass it on!" Sun Chuanting took the order, climbed down from the watchtower, and went to pass the order to the soldiers.

Zhang Shun stood on the high platform and watched for a while, only to see that except for the cavalry sent out to cover the battlefield earlier.

In the Ming army camp, there were chariot soldiers pushing carts; cavalrymen holding horses, hand-to-hand soldiers holding spears, knives and axes; There are miscellaneous.

Zhang Shun couldn't help but shook his head, and shouted to Wukong and Wang Jinyi: "Let's go, go down, there's nothing to see!"

Wukong didn't feel this, but Wang Jinyi was very surprised when he heard it, and couldn't help asking: "Seeing the enemy's army pressing in, why did King Shun ignore it?"

"Although the Ming army has a large number of people, its organization is not lawful. It is estimated that it will be rectified after lunch and advance outside our barracks." Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"Since that's the case, the officers and soldiers should perform their own duties, so why should I bother to spend so much energy?"

It turned out that although Zhu Xieyuan had a great reputation, he had never personally commanded the combined operations of multiple arms in the north.

When the [-] troops moved together, they were in a hurry, and some soldiers were at a loss, which aggravated the chaos in the marching formation.

If it weren't for the [-] Ming army backing against the city and camp, Zhang Shun only needed to send an elite cavalry to attack, and they would be able to defeat this army in one fell swoop.

"King Shun!" Zhang Shun had just climbed down from the watchtower, there were generals Wei Zhiyou, Wang Zhong, Lu Xiangjin, Zhang Rujing and Shen Jingbang waiting below.

"What's the hurry? Go back to the camp and restrain the troops." Zhang Shun couldn't help but calmly said, "We'll have another meal during the day, and we're ready to fight as ordered!"

"Ah? The thief came so slowly!" Everyone couldn't help but disappointed.

Originally, they dug soil and built a stronghold here, dug up many people, and wanted to exercise their muscles and bones, but this is the result?
"Where are you talking so much nonsense, you've missed your business, be careful what I do according to the military law!" Zhang Shun couldn't help scolding a few words, and then Shi Shiran returned to the tent.

Finally reached the middle of the day, the sun was hanging in the middle of the sky.

Zhang Shun had finished his lunch early, and was ready to give Zhu Xieyuan, Zhang Fengyi and others a little flair.

Unexpectedly, Sun Chuanting ran away early to report: "King Shun, something is wrong."

"The Ming army stopped when they were beyond the range of our artillery, and instead sent soldiers to dig a trench. I don't know what their plan is!"

"What?" Zhang Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking in surprise, "Could it be that Zhu Xieyuan still wants to surround us to death?"

He hurriedly climbed up to the watchtower and looked out, only to see the Ming army lined up one or two miles outside the Yi army camp, the lineup was neat.

In front of the army formation, there are a group of people wielding shovels, picks and other tools, digging trenches hard.

"What a thief, he's ready to play tricks if he can't beat him!" Zhang Shun couldn't help being surprised.
