Go back to the Admiral's youth through the book

Chapter 214 (214) self-indulgent self-indulgence
Ji Cheng casually took out the fire folder, and burned the letter paper he had read to black ashes.

The black ash was blown away by the wind, like a disturbed black butterfly, it collapsed and fled.

Chi Yao thought that with the emperor's grandson in her belly, she would be able to stand up?
Heh, I didn't even ask him if he would agree or not...

Immediately, Ji Cheng asked the prefects of the four provinces to prepare for battle and participate in the suppression of bandits at any time.

He also approved Lingnan Dao soldiers to prepare for the king's dayong and recruit Yao militiamen.

Yao Peng, the magistrate of Shaozhou, Guangdong, received the text from Jifutai, drew a detailed topographic map of the bandit lairs in the territory, and reported in detail the preparation of military supplies.

Ji Cheng is also not procrastinating, and he appreciates it very much.

He also reprimanded the prefects of Huilu and Nanxiong for not drawing out the route to attack the bandit's nest, and for not knowing the preparation of soldiers and rations.

This move of his was to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys, and the prefects nearby were also busy, getting ready as quickly as possible...

Hengshui is Xie Zhishan's bandit nest, as long as Hengshui and Zuoxi and other bandit nests are cleared first, and then the other bandit dens are encircled and suppressed, the danger of being attacked by the enemy will be reduced.

However, the bandit leaders of Hengshui and Zuoxi thought that Ji Cheng would first suppress Chi Zhongrong of Sanshui, after all, Sanshui was the leader of the bandits.

Chi Zhongrong of Sanxishui still has a wait-and-see mentality. At worst, if the situation is not good, it is not too late for Zhaoan...

However, Jicheng ordered to suppress Hengshui and Zuoxi first.

He deployed the assembled 1 troops into an army of eleven sentries, and attacked Hengshui and Zuoxi from the east, south, and north.

And because the bandits were afraid of Huguang native soldiers, they made them the West Route Army.

Yang Zhang, the deputy envoy of the patrol road in the north of the Lingbei branch, was assigned to guard the road and consulted with Huang Hong, the governor of the army, to supervise the grain.

Ji Cheng personally led the Chinese army to attack Nankang from the east.

The three-way army formed a strategic encirclement of the Hengshui and Zuoxi bandits, and the outposts supported each other when they advanced and suppressed, and they used each other's horns when camping.

At the same time, the large-scale mobilization of the army also aroused the vigilance of the bandits.

As the bandit leader, Xie Zhishan is best at guerrilla warfare.

Last time he was passively beaten because he was on the territory of the officers and soldiers, but this time it was the officers and soldiers who came to his territory.

You must know that he has never met an opponent in the south of Dahuang, otherwise he would not have become big quickly, and he was respected as King Zhengnan by his brothers.

The bandit leader Gong Fuquan and Li Bin from Chenzhou, Huguang, and others have already transferred their wives and children to the bandit lair in Tonggang, Shangyou County, Nan'an Prefecture.

After they saw that Ji Cheng took down Zhan Shifu, they felt that this champion man was different from the previous high officials, and they couldn't help but feel vigilant.

But as the leader of the bandit who has repeatedly succeeded in counter-suppression, he instinctively despises those wine bags and food bags, and is unwilling to be ordered to safety.

But Tonggang has a natural danger that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he arranged for his wife and children to take refuge temporarily.

Late at night, midnight.

Jicheng ordered all the sentries to set off together according to the established time.

Tonggang is surrounded by green walls and steep cliffs, but the top is very open, with a radius of hundreds of miles, and it can be self-sufficient in food.

There are six entrances in total, but five of them are dangerous places. Only one passage in Huguang is relatively flat, but it takes half a month of mountain roads to reach it.

If Xie Zhishan saw the officers and soldiers going up the mountain road, he must have set up many ambushes, and the officers and soldiers would probably lose most of them before fighting.

As for the five entrances, the bandits took advantage of the terrain, and if some heavy objects were prepared to roll down, the officers and soldiers below had almost no chance of winning.

Even if Ji Cheng ordered a forcible attack and used human lives to pay for it, it would only be a tragic victory, and the bandits had every chance to abscond. After the officers and soldiers retreated and reunited with the bandit nest, they could still revive.

This is also the reason why the officers and soldiers could not appease Xie Zhishan for a long time.

However, is Ji Cheng an ordinary person?
Obviously not……

First of all, he wrote a surrender letter in his own hand, and sent it to several bandit leaders who were hiding on the mountain.

If there are interests, there will be disputes, let alone greedy bandits?

At the same time as using the strategy of alienation, Ji Li ordered the officers and soldiers to camp [-] miles away from the bandit's nest, with deep and high fortifications, so that the bandits mistakenly thought that they were staying for a long time and were not planning to attack immediately, thereby reducing their vigilance.

By the way, he will help a few bandit leaders to publicize their intention to abandon Xie Zhishan and surrender.

On the sand table, there are small flags of various colors.

Xia Ou wore a plain brocade dark cloud pattern wide-sleeved double-breasted long dress, and a few strands of hair hung down on her shoulders in a snake bun. With a flawless white face, she was still beautiful even without makeup.

She knew it was an important moment, and she didn't dare to cause trouble for the admiral.

These days, even if the admiral is too busy to touch the ground, he will arrange soup spoons and prepare three meals a day for her, plus afternoon tea, supper, and various snacks.

Therefore, she must eat all the pots and bowls clean, so as not to live up to her heart.

She was holding the bird's nest and patting it on the edge of the sand table, eating while concentrating on the battle situation.

On the sand table, Xie Zhishan occupied Hengshui, Zuoxi, and Tonggang.

Chi Zhongrong occupied Wutou.

They claim to be kings respectively, echoing Chen Ruineng of Dayu, Gao Kuaima of Lechang, Gong Fuquan of Chenzhou, Zhan Shifu of Nanjing, Huang Xiukui of Longnan, etc., and from time to time they will attack and plunder various prefectures and counties. .

Don't look like they are all reckless men, but they are called a strong soldier.

And there are nearly 10 people, which can be described as very aggressive.

In this way, how can it only take money?
After his ambitions swelled, Xie Zhishan called himself the "King of Zhengnan", Gong Fuquan called himself the "King of Yanxi", and Chi Zhongrong named himself the "King of the Golden Dragon".

Next, it is to do evil.

Cities such as Nan'an, Nankang, Xinfeng, Longnan, Anyuan, Lechang, Guiyang, etc. were repeatedly besieged by bandits.

There are also those officials who were magistrates, some died in battle, and some became captives.

As for the officials and family members with delicate skin and tender flesh in the back house, it is even worse.

The beautiful and delicate guests have become concubines one after another.

Hey, I think she is as beautiful as a flower, and she is definitely a good seed of "Prince Concubine".

I don't know if she will provoke the bandit chiefs to scramble for that stop, causing internal strife and killing each other?
If so, would there be another great beauty in history?

Five Beauties: Shenyu Xishi, Luoyan Zhaojun, Closed Moon Diaochan, Shameful Flower Yuhuan, and Bandit Xiaou.

However, "Bandit" doesn't match well, or can it be flat mountains...moving mountains, fixing mountains, and alluring cities?

Why, not very catchy?

Is it because she is uneducated, or because she feels too good about herself?
After the long case, Ji Cheng dried the written letter and folded it. When he looked up, he saw the little lady intoxicated with herself, and she had a silly smile...

His mouth twitched.

What is she so smug about?
Can't always think about... A look at the city?
Ji Cheng shook his head, not disturbing the little lady who was busy with her narcissism.

He quietly mobilized troops, preparing to launch a multi-pronged general attack.

The five roads leading in and out of Tonggang, namely Suoqiaolong, Huludong, Chakeng, Shibalei, and Xindi, are to be erected on the cliffs of these five roads...

　One ren is equivalent to seven or eight feet, which is equivalent to more than two meters.

　　The historical prototype of Jicheng, the deployed army of eleven sentries.

　　The first post of the Eastern Route Army, led by Xing Xun, the magistrate of Ganzhou, attacked Shangyou County from the northeast.

　　The fourth sentry was led by Xu Qing, the commander of the capital of Jiangxi, and attacked Nankang from the east.

　　The Ninth Sentinel Army was led by Zhang Jian, the magistrate of Chengxiang County, Chaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong Province, and marched towards Nankang from the east.

　　The sixth post of the Northern Route Army was led by Yu En, commander of Ganzhou Guard, and attacked Shangyou County from the north.

　　The seventh post was led by Wang Tianhe, the county magistrate of Ningdu County, Ganzhou Prefecture, and marched from the northeast to Shangyou County.

　　The eighth post was led by Shufu, the county magistrate of Nankang County, and attacked from the northwest.

　　The tenth post was led by Wu Wending, the prefect of Ji'an, and attacked from the northeast.

　　The second post of the South Route Army, led by Tang Chun, the prefect of Tingzhou, Fujian, marched from the south to suppress.

　　The third sentry was led by Nan'an prefect Ji Yu, and attacked Dayu from the south.

　　The fifth outpost was led by Jia Wen, commander of the capital, and attacked from Dayu County in the southeast.
