Chapter 734 The New Governor Fu Zonglong

That night the rebels spent the night in Baofeng, and Li Xin finally rushed to Baofeng County on the road overnight.

Zhang Shun yawned and got up, and he didn't blame him, but said: "It's understandable to go out to conquer, and I didn't need to see me. It's just that the rebels only attacked a county, why did they delay so much?" day?"

Hearing this, Li Xin couldn't help but hastily replied: "It's not that Yan has a different intention and deliberately delayed. The fact is that there are too many adults in Jiaxian County, and he can't go down in a hurry. There are also Zuo Liangyu's followers who led elite troops to station in Yuzhou. The reason why you dare to attack the city with all your strength!"

"What?" Zhang Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, "Why did Zuo Liangyu come here?"

Although Zuo Liangyu was dealt with several times by Zhang Shun, he even gave him the insulting nickname of "You stubborn stone".

However, Zhang Shun had to admit that this person had some abilities after all.Even Zhang Shun, if he was not careful, he might bite him.

However, since the rebel army entered the territory of Henan, the two sides have not fought each other again, and Zhang Shun has already forgotten about this person.

But he never expected that at the critical moment, this fellow would suddenly appear again.

Niu Jinxing reacted quickly and couldn't help shouting: "General, this matter is extraordinary!"

"Although Hong Chengchou, governor of the five provinces, was defeated, most of the casualties were Qin soldiers. The rest of the guest soldiers and Yu soldiers are still strong, but they have no leader."

"Now that Zuo Liangyu suddenly appeared, either the imperial reinforcements arrived, or the new governor of Henan arrived and reorganized the troops."

"Although they are nothing to worry about, we have to prevent them from delaying the general's important affairs!"

In fact, Zhang Shun also had similar worries. If the new governor of Henan had already taken office, he would rectify the troops and "recover lost ground."

Then he would either have to give up his original plan to capture Nanyang and return to the Defense Henan Mansion; or he would be attacked by officers and soldiers from Kaifeng Mansion and face the predicament of attacking back and forth.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shun couldn't help asking: "I wonder how Mr. Niu thinks about this matter?"

Niu Jinxing obviously didn't expect such a change, and was immediately taken aback.

Fortunately, he also quickly calmed down, thought for a moment and replied: "The Art of War says: Know yourself and know the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. Now I don't know the situation of the rebel army, nor the situation of the officers and soldiers, so I dare not offer advice without authorization, so as not to miss the general's important event!"

When Zhang Shun heard this, he was seeking truth from facts.He hurriedly asked Li Xin to tell Niu Jinxing about the layout of the East of the Rebel Army, and let him come up with ideas.

Niu Jinxing thought for a long time, and then slowly said: "It stands to reason that the new governor should not have arrived so quickly, and there is something wrong in it, and it is unknown."

"If the general is bolder, he can stay with some of his troops in Jia County and Ye County, and serve as horns to prevent the officers and soldiers from cutting off the rear of the rebel army. The rest of the troops will continue to march south, take Nanyang Mansion quickly, and then transfer troops to go north to conquer Zheng Bianzhi land."

"Not right, not right, this plan is too risky, if something goes wrong, the situation will be beyond redemption." Zhang Shun shook his head and said.

"Or, general, why don't you send your troops to the north, take the first attack, seize Xiangcheng, and look at Xuzhou and Yuzhou. If the officers and soldiers retreat, we will continue to march south. If the officers and soldiers are in a stalemate with my family, we can send the rebels out of Sishui , Dengfeng, disturbing the eastern part of Henan, the new governor of Henan can't stand against me."

"This..." Zhang Shun hesitated for a moment, and he had no intention of changing the original strategic plan until it was absolutely necessary.

Seeing Zhang Shun's hesitant look, Niu Jinxing knew that he was still dissatisfied with his strategy, so he continued to offer advice: "If it's safe, why don't the general seize Ye County at night, and then act according to its reality?"

"If the new governor of Henan does not arrive, this is purely an accident, and the rebel army will continue to act as planned; if there is indeed a change among the officers and soldiers, the general can also quickly mobilize troops from Dengfeng and Jiaxian County, and then join the officers and soldiers It's not too late to deal with it!"

"Okay, let's do it like this!" Zhang Shun finally said decisively.

Based on this matter alone, he couldn't help but have a new view on Niu Jinxing. He didn't expect that this person is indeed a person who is well versed in the art of war, and he found a treasure.

Immediately Zhang Shun ordered Zhang Sanbai to lead his troops to garrison Baofeng County, while he took the rest of his troops to capture Ye County.

At this time, He Jin had just led the cavalry and captured Kunyang Pass.In addition to the one or two hundred archers at Kunyang Pass in Ye County, the defenders in the city are only a few hundred men hastily conscripted by the county magistrate. How can they resist the attack of the rebels?
When Jiang He led the crowd to climb to the top of the city, these people dispersed in a hurry, and the rebel army took Yexian county lightly.

Until this time, the night had just passed halfway.Only then did Zhang Shun suppress his drowsiness, arranged for the defense of the city, and then lay down anxiously.

At first, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, which made Gao Guiying complain endlessly.

After finally closing his eyes, Wang Jinyi's voice sounded outside: "President, there is an urgent military situation!"

Zhang Shun's head was going to explode, he rubbed his temples, and replied coldly: "Say!"

Wang Jinyi heard that he was a little out of bed, but he didn't dare to take a breath, so he had to report honestly: "He Jin sent someone to report that officers and soldiers appeared outside Kunyang Pass at night. It is very likely that elites from the Nine Sides have come here!"

"Understood! You go to invite Mr. Niu first, and I will get up when I put on my clothes." The matter has come to this point, it seems that things have started to develop in a bad direction, and I have to be careful to deal with it.

It's no wonder that Zhang Shun was caught off guard, not to mention Zhang Shun, even the government and the opposition did not expect that the new governor of Henan, Fu Zonglong, would arrive so quickly.

It turned out that Fu Zonglong was originally the supervisor of Najiliao, but he was dismissed because of a mistake.

According to the original historical line, he still needs to wait until Chongzhen for about ten years.After the death of Zhu Kuiyuan of Zuozhu Kingdom, Emperor Chongzhen didn't think of him because of the bad situation in Sichuan.Then he was ordered to work in Sichuan, and then he was able to come out of the mountain again.

It's just that in this life, because Zhang Shun changed history, he successively captured two governors, Lu Xiangsheng, governor of Yunyang, and Hong Chengchou, governor of five provinces.As a result, no one was available in the court for a while, so he had to re-appoint this person.

And this Fu Zonglong just happened to be cut off from Renshen in November of the seventh year of Chongzhen, and then he waited and watched in the capital for a while.It wasn't until he saw that there was no hope of a comeback that he had to lead the standard battalion recruited from Yunnan and prepare to return to his hometown of Kunming.

As a result, who would have thought that just after he led the team to the vicinity of Weihui Mansion, the imperial court's reactivation edict would be conveyed.

Fu Zonglong was overjoyed, and found that he was just not far from Kaifeng Mansion, so he immediately led the army into the city and took office directly.

It's just that after Fu Zonglong took office, he didn't have time to celebrate in the future, but found that the rebels had already occupied Sishui County and Dengfeng County successively, and there was a risk of going east to Zhengbian at any time.

Therefore, he quickly began to rectify his troops and horses, using offense as defense, and prepared to launch an attack on the rebels.
