Wanli 1592

Chapter 1074
Facing Xiao Ruxun's question about the four chieftains, Liu Huangshang sorted out his thoughts.

"The Song family in Shuidong has always been relatively stable. Its base is in the Guiyang area. In the former Ming Dynasty, Ding Ding used Guiyang as the center of Guizhou to garrison troops. The Song family voluntarily gave up Guiyang City and retreated to the edge to show their loyalty. Therefore, the former Ming Dynasty was very generous to the Song family. , the Song family was grateful for Ming En, and there was no rebellion.

The Shui’an family is roughly the same. After the Sizhou Tian family was divided into two, it no longer has the power and influence of the past. The tyranny of the Yang family and the eccentricity of his subordinates, his rule is deeply rooted, and it is more difficult than the Yang family. "

Xiao Ruxun asked again: "Then is it possible for these three families to help the Yang family?"

"Your Majesty, do you want these three families to help each other or not?"

Liu Huangshang asked suddenly.

Xiao Ruxun frowned, then relaxed.

"Grateful for Ming En, grateful for Ming En, Ming is gone, the world now belongs to Daqin, he wants to be grateful, and he must clearly distinguish the object of gratitude. To be a human being, you must be as aware of current affairs as Li Yan, otherwise, you just feel that Are the swords and guns of my Great Qin soldiers not sharp enough?"

Liu Huangshang understood what Xiao Ruxun meant.

"The minister understands what His Majesty means."

Xiao Ruxun nodded.

"However, don't go too far right now, and continue to maintain the stability of the local area. I don't want to fight two wars at the same time unless slaves are established. However, food and weapons must be prepared.

Xuanzi, take my warrant to the Ministry of War, and ask the Ministry of War to deliver the food and weapons as soon as possible, and get the logistics done. Once the war starts, the Xuanwu Battalion will go to the battlefield. "

Speaking of Xuanwu Camp, Liu Huangshang asked again: "Your Majesty, Chen Lin is now stationed in Changde Mansion, but can Chen Lin be used in this battle? How about replacing him with Liu Zhen?"

Before and after the founding of the Great Qin Dynasty, the Xuanwu Camp stayed in the south of the Yangtze River to assist in the land reform, and there was no transfer to the north. After Li Wenyuan resigned due to a crime, Xiao Ruxun appointed Xiao Ruzhi as the head of the Xuanwu Camp and Zheng Ying as the deputy.

After Xiao Ruzhi became king, he changed positions, Zheng Ying served as the head general of the Xuanwu Battalion, and Chen Lin served as the deputy general.

In the past few months, Chen Lin has done a good job of assisting Zheng Ying in handling affairs. The matter of Li Wenyuan hit him hard before, but now he is doing things honestly and dare not think anymore.

Although he is honest, he is getting older, and his courage is not as good as in his prime, and he does not meet Xiao Ruxun's requirements. It is time for him to step down.

This battle needs a brave general, and Liu Dadao is very good, but Xiao Ruxun has been very busy and has not had time to consider changing candidates. Now is the time to change candidates.

"You're right, order the Organization Department of the Central Committee to ask Chen Lin to come back, to be named General of Hussars, and to be appointed Governor of the Zuoying Commandery of the capital, given the mansion, and ordered Liu Ting to be appointed Deputy General of the Xuanwu Battalion, stationed in Changde Mansion, and lead the troops to prepare for war."

"According to the order."

Liu Huangshang took the order.

Xiao Ruxun breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and rested for a while.

This time after the war, it is time to reorganize the army. The establishment of the seven battalions is always used. Now it is obvious that the number of troops has reached more than 80. The military system has been reformed and the number of troops has increased. It is imperative.

Before, there were concerns about the lack of officers, but now the Central Military Academy has begun to operate. The enrollment of three thousand outstanding young people has given Xiao Ruxun great comfort. Reserve officers will no longer be the shortcoming of the Qin army. The army will be reorganized to increase division Military power is no longer difficult.

It is always necessary to add some fresh blood into the army, otherwise even the Zhennan Army that followed him will change.

This kind of change is not something he allows.

Now, he is looking forward to hearing the news of Nurhachi's death from North Korea. As long as this news is delivered, the Sichuan matter will no longer be a matter, and he will be free to deal with Yang Yinglong.

But the main army carrying his hope had not yet arrived on the battlefield, and the only thing he could count on was Mao Wenlong's two thousand cavalry.

Mao Wenlong can be regarded as fighting for his spirit. The battle by the Linjin River forced Nurhachi to cut off his tail to survive. Now he has entered an absolute death situation, and there is no way out.

What will happen if there is no food and drink for thousands of people?

What do their war horses eat?
It won't take many days for them to be finished.

So Mao Wenlong led the army to chase after him at ease, and when he was about to catch up, he showed his face and chased them away, and ran faster if he was slow.

The game of cat and mouse was played for three days. On October 21, Nurhachi and others fled to the vicinity of Zhongzhou. At this time, they had lost nearly a thousand horses and more than a thousand personnel.

Not many were killed in the battle, either fell to death with the horse, or fell off the horse and were trampled to death from exhaustion. In the process of fleeing for their lives in a hurry, none of them cared about the other.

Nurhachi and Fei Yingdong let their own soldiers protect their families and galloped on horseback. They could keep their families, but the others couldn't.

But at this position, they have also reached their limit and are exhausted.

Because the Qin army was chasing after them, they didn't dare to stay at all, and rushed in to loot when they encountered villages and towns, but the people in these places had already fled, and what was left was very limited, and the water was also very limited. A river stream, bad luck not even a well.

He ran for his life day and night, worried about the sneak attack of the Qin army at any time, and slept with the horse holding the weapon. Once the Qin army appeared, he immediately got on the horse and fled.

They didn't even have time to think, they just thought that the guys who wanted their lives were coming, so run quickly, otherwise there would be no way out.

Fei Yingdong also asked how to go on Nurhachi Road and where to go after that. Nurhachi replied to him in a daze, and there was nothing else.

Don't blame him, there is really no way.

Fei Yingdong probably knew what situation they were in.

So, after arriving in Chungju, they stopped going any further.

It's not that I don't want to walk, but that I can't walk anymore. The physical strength of people and horses has reached their limit.

Without supplements, he was driven to a desperate situation by the strong walls, clear fields and cold air, with nowhere to go.

"That's it, we have no other way to go."

Holding his youngest son, Babuhai, who was only three years old, Nurhachi got off the horse, stood on the ground, looked at the gray sky and the invisible distance, and sighed deeply.

Fei Yingdong walked up to him, and asked with some difficulty: "Is it really impossible to continue walking? Has it really reached the limit?"

"It's really reached the limit. I can't walk anymore. If I continue walking, people will die, horses will die, they will either fall to death or die of starvation and thirst. They don't have to fight the Qin army, which saves them a lot of effort."

Nurhachi shook his head, and handed Babuhai in his arms to Daishan who followed him.

"Take care of your brother."

Daishan didn't speak, but simply nodded.
