Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 258 Long-distance raid (second update)
With the previous example of Yang Shan and others, these Ming soldiers also wanted to change their own destiny.

In the past, they fought their lives just to stutter.

But it's different now, fighting for the hammer bandit He Jinzhao, so that he can have a better life!

Who is not willing to take a chance for this opportunity in front of them, and change the fate of the poor from then on?
These officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty also wanted to have a piece of fertile land of their own.

At least he can be buried in his own field after death, instead of being a lonely ghost.

Military generals are not respected, and the status of military households in Daming will only be lower.

The defenders at Biantouguan looked at the weapons and equipment of He Jinzhao's hammer bandits, and they knew that they were not short of money at all, and they would not lie to you.

Armor, firecrackers, iron bones hanging around the waist, cowhide girdles, gunpowder bags and dry food.

Then look at the war horses running in the distance, all of them are fat and strong, and they are well-fed.

The soldiers who turned their heads were drooling with envy. With this equipment, they will definitely be able to run amok on the grassland.

He Jinzhao made all these soldiers sit on the ground.

The garrison Tian Hu wanted to climb up the Great Wall of Laoniuwan, and rushed directly to Laoyingbao along the Great Wall.

"Well, that's a good idea." He Jinzhao thought for a while, "You choose five hundred soldiers who are good at running."

"Five hundred?"

"It's only sixty miles from Pianguan to Laoyingbao." He Jinzhao pointed to the Great Wall not far away and said:
"But to walk the Great Wall, it's sixty miles from here to Laoniuwan.

It is 120 miles from Lao Niu Wan to Lao Ying Bao, how many days do you need to run with your subordinates? "

Nearly two hundred miles away, this is the distance to climb the Great Wall.

If it is only [-] miles inland, it will take more than a day. If you march by force, you can reach it in one day.

By boat, the time will be shorter.

Hearing He Jinzhao's question, if he wanted to run two hundred miles along the Great Wall in full armor with his subordinates, it would take five days anyway.

Otherwise, it is impossible to maintain combat effectiveness.

"Four days." Tian Hu said in response.

"Not fast enough."

Tian Hu felt that he was already bragging, but he didn't expect He Jinzhao to feel slow.

Liu Erhu put his hands on his chest, showing disdain. Back then, the captain had trained his soldiers to run a lot.

At that time, the strength was still small, and what the captain thought was that since we couldn't beat the dog officers, we must run faster than them so as not to be killed.

Then he was nicknamed "He Paopao" by the team leader.

The training program of long-distance raids has been retained.

When the captain released himself from Pingyao County to attack those county towns, Liu Erhu took full advantage of his side's ability to attack long distances.

Without giving them any news to communicate with each other, they took several county towns before resting in Yuci County, which is the closest to Taiyuan.

"This is not a place to talk." He Jinzhao led the people directly into the side gate and entered the General's Mansion.

In just a short while, the hammer bandits quickly occupied key points everywhere.

Inside the hall.

He Jinzhao glanced at him: "You first write a request for help and send it to your cousin in the old camp."

"Yes, I'll write right away."

Tian Hu immediately picked up a pen and wrote a letter for help.

"Find someone you can trust and have the courage to deliver the letter."

Hearing He Jinzhao's words, Tian Hu showed suspicion:

"Prosecutor, this letter is written in vain, Tian Zhao will not care about my life or death."

"It's okay, send the letter first."

"Yes."

Tian Hu called his own younger brother Tian Bao over, and gave him careful instructions for a while.

Tell my younger brother that the opportunity for our Tian clan branch to rise is at hand, but we must not mess up the errand.

Even if he can't grow stronger with He Jinzhao in the future, he still has to take the opportunity to kill Master Tian. What a great opportunity!

"Brother, don't worry."

Tian Bao didn't ask too much, he also knew that under the temptation of the hammer bandit He Jinzhao, he couldn't hold back these brothers at all, so he simply sought more benefits from the bandit.

At that time, the Great Wall will still be guarded by their Tian family, and if they control the exchange point in their hands, their childhood will be prosperous.

Then Ji Gui, the dog-headed military strategist, asked: "My lord, do you want Tian Hu to show weakness?"

"En." He Jinzhao finally expressed his thoughts:

"Send a letter asking for help first, Tian Zhao will definitely ignore it, anyway, he also looks down on Tian Hu.

Then our army retreated, Tian Hu took people and drinks to the old camp in person, bribed the soldiers, went to the deputy commander Tian Zhao to intercede, and got them drunk.

The two tigers are leading the soldiers trapped in the camp, rushing on the Great Wall, heading straight for the old camp fort from the mountain, and I will send people to meet them. "

"Captain, why use soldiers who are trapped in the camp?"

"Having raised them for so long, give them a chance to become a regular."

A group of soldiers were sitting in the middle of the urn, and He Jinzhao stood on the gate, holding a paper trumpet and shouting down:

"I want five hundred strong men who are good at running to stand on the left, and two hundred strong men who are brave and good at drinking and stand on the right."

When the soldiers in the Wengcheng heard this, they all started to line up from left to right.

Some of the soldiers were neither good at drinking nor running, so they could only stand in the middle with a decadent look on their faces.

But even so, there were too many soldiers standing on the left and right sides, and the opportunity to change their fate was right in front of them, so it was their turn not to give it a try.

He Jinchao sent Liu Erhu to recruit these two types of people in the same camp.

Those who are good at running can run nearly two hundred miles in two days.

He Jinzhao did not use the iron footboards of the Red Army, requiring his soldiers to run 240 miles a day and one night, which is not easy for the Red Army.

The Great Wall has ups and downs, but they are all stone roads, which are much easier to walk than the roads of the Red Army.

In particular, the role of the Great Wall is not only to resist foreign enemies.

There is also the role of transporting troops, which is equivalent to the ancient highway.

The soldiers of the trapped camp who were originally assigned the task of digging a hole became more and more excited when they heard Liu Erhu announce the commander's order.

You can enter the regular army with a single life. Isn't this running errand less dangerous than carrying a ladder to attack a city?

"Whoever can't keep up with the team, don't worry about them."

He Jinzhao told Liu Erhu, "Let them rest on the Great Wall."

"Captain, don't worry, the opportunity is right in front of you, but they can't seize it."

Having recruited enough people, Liu Erhu obeyed He Jinzhao's order, and took more than [-] people who were selected to be good at running, and headed straight for the Great Wall of Laoniuwan.

The old camp fort was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and it was easy to defend against the upward attack, but Liu Erhu naturally wanted to send him a heavenly soldier along the Great Wall, and use the high to fight the low.

A group of people carried three days of dry food, followed Liu Erhu's banner and ran directly to Laoniu Bay, where they climbed the city wall.

He Jinzhao felt that a letter could lure Tian Zhao's men into the strong castle and ambush him halfway, which would be considered beneficial to his own side.

If you can't cheat, this plan can also be used.

Tian Hu felt that three days was too short. He knew the endurance of his soldiers, which was absolutely impossible.
