Wanli 1592

Chapter 896
Li Ruzhang's side got it done smoothly, and on the other side, Du Tong's side got it done pretty well.

Just as Ma Wei and the others had guessed, Du Tong had no intention of fighting desperately at all. When the troops marched more than halfway to the road, it was freezing cold, the river was freezing, and there was a problem with the army rations in the rear. Du Tong took the opportunity to stop the march. He planned to go back to check the situation, but was stopped by the supervisor.

The supervising army strongly demanded that Du Tong speed up the march, and Du Tong was so annoyed that he directly ordered the soldiers to tie up Wuhua Da, the supervising army, and ordered the army to stop marching, and went back to the army to "check the situation".

Naturally, it was the white-armed soldiers who came down from the sky that caused their food problems. After Ma Qiancheng and Qin Liangyu received Ma Wei's order, they immediately went into action. Carrying out his own mission, and executing the mission perfectly, contributed to the mutiny of the Ningxia soldiers, and also contributed to the opportunity for Du Tong to surrender.

After Du Tong heard that Li Ruzhang had surrendered, he pretended to be difficult and thought about the time for the two sticks of incense, and then made a "difficult" decision to surrender. He decided to join the big family of the Zhennan Army and contribute his strength to the Northern Expedition. There is no need to prepare, just turn the gun head and go back directly.

Take Tianshui, open the situation for the army, and then go to Guyuan.

Du Tong, who is the general of Guyuan, should not be too familiar with this road. He led the way very smoothly. Liu Ting didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. After walking for more than ten days, he arrived at Tianshui City and successfully entered Tianshui City.

It was already December [-]th at this time, and on the same day, Ma Wei and Wang Hui led their troops to Dashanguan. Dashanguan surrendered without a fight, and directly sacrificed the city. Li Ruzhang's side was similar, eyebrows The county had no defense against Li Ruzhang who came back suddenly, and was easily taken down by Li Ruzhang. When Deng Zilong led his army out of Baoxie Valley Road, hot rice and hot soup were ready.

The main force of Li Wennan's [-] troops in Hanzhong surrendered to the Zhennan Army, turned around and fought back fiercely. Most of the elite soldiers and horses of the four towns in the northwest are concentrated here, and the rest are scattered in various places. , and lost the unified command of the trilateral governors, the governors from all over the country had no defense and could only fight on their own.

The one who bears the brunt is the unlucky Liu Guangguo. Without Li Wen in the front, he doesn't have many soldiers to mobilize, and most of them are concentrated in Mei County to transfer grain to Li Ruzhang. As a result, Li Ruzhang easily takes over. Commander-in-Chief.

After Li Ruzhang took Mei County, he waited for Deng Zilong to arrive, then discussed with Deng Zilong how to advance, and finally decided to divide the troops and advance side by side.

Li Ruzhang led his men to attack Fufeng, Wugong, Xingping, and Xianyang, and then prepared to attack Xi'an. Deng Zilong marched eastward along the Weishui River, attacked Zhouzhi County, and then went straight to Xi'an Prefecture. Liu Guangguo and Tan Xisi, the escape masters, were blocked to prevent them from escaping Tongguan.

Li Ruzhang was ordered to act and made rapid progress. No one could stop him along the way. Deng Zilong's attack was faster because there was no obstacle along the way. He marched eastward along the Weishui River, and he could not even see the blocking soldiers and horses. Only the people living along the coast were surprised. Looking at this large but well-organized army.

Liu Ting was suffocated in Lueyang. He didn't fight a single battle, and he didn't have any credit at all. After arriving in Tianshui, he immediately decided to attack fiercely. He also marched in two ways with Du Tongbing. , and then arrived at Guyuan Town, and he took the route of Qingshui, Huating and Pingliangfu, and then arrived at Guyuan Town.

All in all, destroying this Northwest military hub will basically complete the Northwest Raiders, and the rest can be decided by handing over.

Of course, there is another problem, that is, Gansu Town where Dayun is located. Dayun was called to the capital to be in charge of guarding early in the morning. Now Gansu Town only has the governor in charge.

But Liu Ting was very happy, because it meant that he could fight. Following Du Tong to attack Guyuan Town was almost smooth and no one would resist. After all, Du Tong was the general soldier of Guyuan, but it was different when he went to fight Gansu. There might be resistance.

But it doesn't matter, Gansu Town has no source of food, so what if it doesn't surrender?Starve to death?

Liu Ting was very proud.

On the other side, after Ma Wei and Wang Hui's troops left Dasan Pass and captured Baoji, they were about to march into Fengxiang Mansion, and then they also went east, approaching Xi'an Mansion, and joined forces with Li Ruzhang and Deng Zilong's troops to discuss the next move.

As for Ningxia Town and Yulin Town, Niu Bingzhong and Li Ruzhang need to worry about it. The governor of Ningxia, Zhu Zhengse, doesn't seem to dislike Xiao Ruxun, and it seems that they can still fight for it. The governor of Yulin, the governor of Yansui, Wang Jianjia, may need some twists and turns.

But it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to fight, or directly use mutiny to get rid of it, anyway, it has been like this several times before.

After the governor is eliminated, the towns will be stable, and the border defense will be arranged. As usual, Ma Wei and Wang Hui will be able to lead the army eastward to Datong, Shanxi, cross the Bauhinia Pass and enter the Gyeonggi area, and pass through Shanxi and Datong where the northern captives are ravaging. There is nothing standing in their way, they just need to keep going.

The entire strategy is clear, the Northwest and Guanzhong are already in the bag, and a little resistance is nothing more than a mantis' arms. The powerful army will run over it mightily, and any obstacles will be crushed to pieces.

Of course, there are not no praying mantises who are willing to resist. Both Li Ruzhang and Deng Zilong have encountered praying mantises who are willing to resist, and they screamed hoarsely, saying that their infidelity and injustice are rebellious rebellions, and they want to kill them on behalf of the court, but the slogans are loud, The strength is really insignificant, which shows that it is their consistent tradition that the mouthpiece is higher than the artillery.

It's a pity that on the battlefield, mouth cannons are really not as good as artillery, Zhuge Kongming also failed to scold Wang Situ to death, people live well, high-ranking officials are doing a lot of money, and they eat well and feel good. After Cao Rui succeeded to the throne, he died of old age and was granted the title of Marquis of Lanling. His daughter married Sima Zhao and gave birth to Sima Yan.

Yes, the emperor's grandfather.

It can be seen that mouth guns seem to be useless.

Fortunately, the generals under Xiao Ruxun and even the literati are very aware of this, so they are doing things in a down-to-earth manner. Compared with those Qingliu who only talk and do nothing, it is obviously much more useful.

Otherwise, he wouldn't let him take down most of the Ming Dynasty with an army of [-]. Now that the two sides are attacking, soon, the most elite troops of the Ming Dynasty will gather under the capital city and give Shen Yiguan a long-farewell A reunion ceremony.

To be honest, Xiao Ruxun really wanted to know what it would be like when he faced Shen Yiguan again.

Speaking of which, Xiao Ruxun met Shen Yiguan a few times, even before he launched the mutiny, the two met several times, and they were very friendly colleagues. The elder disdained to be with him, Qiu Ba, so he used the power of other Qiu Ba to drive him away.

That is to say, he was so fateful that he was willing to help him when he ran into Liu Huangshang, otherwise, he would really die in the capital.

Since he is not dead, of course Xiao Ruxun has to prepare a generous return gift for Shen Yiguan, otherwise how can he be worthy of Shen Yiguan's deep affection?
PS: Well, I will never use numbers in the title of a book in the future.
