I, the Ming Dynasty, can still save me

Chapter 397
Since Hong Chengchou received Zhu Xieyuan's entrustment, he has been living in seclusion these days, busy with logistics and food, for fear of missing important military events.

And he is not the only one who is busy in Guiyang city. As the main force of this rebellion, the Zhenwu Army has been in Guiyang for a month.

Although there has been no fighting in a month, the training in the army has not slowed down at all.

This is especially true for the Yongyi Battalion. Two generals, Sun Xinji and Zhu Daoxin, have been supervising the training in the camp every day, so that other battalions have to be involved.

"We have been in Guizhou for such a long time, why haven't we left the city to fight against the rebellion? I really don't know how long we will stay."

As Zhu Daoxin spoke, he looked at the scorching sun above his head and wiped the hot sweat from his head with a towel, his expression very uncomfortable.

Although it is now September, Guiyang is still hot and humid, which makes Sun Xinji and Zhu Daoxin really uncomfortable. This is especially true for the officers and soldiers under their command. After daily training, they have to take a bath in the river to cool off, otherwise they will suffer to death. No.

"It should be soon. I heard some time ago that the Governor sent an envoy to Anjia five days ago and said that An Bangyan would be given half a month's time limit. If he did not surrender, he would come to Guiyang to plead guilty. If not, he would send troops to annihilate him."

Sun Xinji was also very unhappy with the weather and didn't want to stay here anymore.

"The Governor is too kind-hearted, and An Bangyan's traitor has been exposed. I don't think there is any half-month deadline, just assemble the army and send troops to destroy it. I think it's their words, or the Krupp cannon of my army? "

When Sun Xinji saw what Zhu Daoxin said, he immediately laughed and said to Zhu Daoxin:
"You are liking the Krupp Cannon more and more now. When I see it, I will transfer you to the artillery camp. When the time comes, you can practice the Krupp Cannon and show its power, and let these chieftains see the strength of our Zhenwu Army. "

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Daoxin heard this, he immediately shook his head.

"There's no point in practicing in person. It will be interesting when the time comes when you have accomplished meritorious deeds and commanded the artillery battalion."

Zhu Daoxin had told Sun Xinji this idea many times. Sun Xinji was not surprised at all when he heard this, but felt the same way.

Ever since Licaolanchang was reused by His Majesty and later entered the capital camp, he had the desire to display his ambitions and make contributions.It's not just him, it's basically the same for everyone who comes out of the grass field.

When they learned that the Zhenwu Army was going south to quell the rebellion, other students were very envious and felt that this was an excellent opportunity to make contributions.

Sun and Zhu even believed that the suppression of the rebellion in Hebei was just an appetizer. They must make great achievements in Guizhou this time, so that they can go further in the future when they return.

"President Sun Qian, President Zhu Qian, and General Huang Shen have issued an order, ordering you two to go see him immediately."

The two looked at each other after hearing the words, obviously not knowing what the news was, so they handed over the training to the adjutant, and the two of them quickly went to Huang Degong's camp.

"See Sir General."

As soon as the two of them entered the camp, they saw Huang Degong lying with his head down, concentrating on looking at the map. He didn't even know that the two of them had entered.

After hearing the reports from the two men, Huang Degong raised his head and then waved his hand to let them come over.

Zhu Daoxin and his two men walked over and took a look, only to realize that what Huang Degong was looking at was actually the map of the Chief Secretary of Guizhou, in which several places were depicted.The two of them took a closer look and found that they were probably at the locations of Shuixi and Shuidong. "How is the training of the soldiers in the battalion?"

Seeing the two of them looking at the map attentively and showing doubts from time to time, Huang Degong did not answer them. Instead, he asked them about their recent training.

"Sir, there has been nothing wrong with the training during this period. It's just that the soldiers are training every day. There is no actual combat and the weather is a bit boring. It's really uncomfortable. I just don't know when the troops will be sent out."

Upon hearing Huang Degong's question, Zhu Daoxin immediately complained, and Sun Xinji immediately agreed after hearing what he said.

"Haha, this period of time allows you to rest for a while, but you don't need to rest anymore. We will prepare in the next few days. The governor has already discussed with the commander-in-chief and will send troops to attack Shuixi soon. Our Zhenwu Army is the main vanguard force."

Zhu Daoxin and Zhu Daoxin were overjoyed when they heard this. They immediately looked at Huang Degong and said:
"Teacher is serious about what he said. Didn't he say that An Bangyan should be given half a month's period? Are we going to send troops before that?"

Huang Degong laughed and shook his head when he heard the words.

"No, the reason why we didn't send troops before was because the governor didn't want to cause a backlash from the surrounding little chieftains, so he showed his kindness to show the court's love for the people. Furthermore, the court's food and grass have not arrived, so it would be difficult to start a war rashly if the food and grass were not available. .

However, in the past few months, the imperial court has been extremely benevolent. Lord Hong Chengchou, the left counselor, also arrived in Guiyang from Nanzhili to transport grain. There was no need to worry about reserves. It was a good time to send troops.

The previous statement that we would give An Bangyan half a month was just a cover-up. We stationed troops in Guiyang and marching for a long time had already paralyzed him, so this time we must take him by surprise and catch him off guard. "

Listening to Huang Degong's analysis, the two of them were suddenly pleasantly surprised.

"Let me just say that when dealing with She Chongming in Yongning, Governor Zhu was vigorous and resolute. Now he is very cautious with the Shuixi'an clan. This is the original reason. When will we set off, I wonder if there will be any side response."

He had already planned this, and now that he had told the two of them to leave, Huang Degong didn't want to hide it, so he told the whole battle plan.

"Don't worry. When the time comes, Guizhou Commander-in-Chief Yang Yumao will personally lead [-] Guizhou soldiers and be responsible for annihilating the Shuidong Song Clan. The Song Clan only has two cities, not far from Guiyang, so it is not that difficult to capture them.

And we have Qin Yiming's white pole soldiers and other chieftain soldiers, with a total of 3 people as the main force, marching westward from Guiyang and attacking Shuixi directly.Wen Yingkui, the commander-in-chief of Yansui Town, will also lead an army of [-] people and go south from Zunyi Prefecture to join our army.

Qin Minping, the commander-in-chief of Yongning in the west, will lead [-] troops to the Chishui Guards in the northwest of Shuixi. As a side support for our army, as long as our army joins the commander-in-chief Wen, he will send troops from the northwest to encircle Shuishui with our army. Xicheng.

The chieftain soldiers from Yunnan were stationed in Anshun Prefecture southwest of Shui Shui. Their troops were weak and they had more than enough defense but not enough offense. Therefore, it was better to defend on the spot and no longer make plans. "

"This is a siege of three towers. I'm afraid that An Bangyan will escape to the south by then."

Sun Xinji felt that this plan was very thorough, but he had doubts about whether these Yunnan chieftain soldiers could withstand the southern defense.

When Huang Degong heard this, an imperceptible smile appeared on his face and he said lightly:
"Don't pay attention to this. Since the Governor has such a plan, he will definitely take this situation into consideration. You two hurry up and prepare. We will depart soon. Don't delay the military plane."
