Chapter 791: Don’t have a gun in your hand, and you don’t fart even sounds. [Please give me a monthly ticket!]

(0791)

【Today's first update is delivered!】

The soldiers of Ningzi Camp boarded a boat from Dongjiabao, quickly headed north, and rushed to Songshan Castle. They entered Liaodong and fought directly with the Tatars face to face. This was an exciting event. Therefore, the soldiers of Ningzi Camp all seemed quite excited and felt that their blood was boiling all over. Unfortunately, when they arrived, the battle at Xingshan Castle was over.

Seeing Zhang Zhun and standing attentively, Zou Mingjia, the commander of Ningba, asked impatiently: "Sir, I heard that you are going to attack Jinzhou?"

Zhang Zhun nodded and said gently: "Yes. However, the time is not yet ripe. Your task is to have a good rest, restore your energy, and wait for orders. When necessary, I will send you up."

"clear!"

Zou Mingjia agreed, nodded excitedly, and turned to take the troops to deploy defenses.

According to the original deployment plan, Ningzi Camp will stationed in Songshan Fort and echo the Dingzi Camp stationed in Dalinghe Fort. The Qinglong Army (Biaozi Camp) that arrived later was responsible for stationing Jinzhou. The other Hu Ben Army troops that arrived after that will all gather in Jinzhou and then launch an attack on Guangning.

The arrival of Ningzi Camp made Zhang Zhun's hands much stronger. He subconsciously turned around and looked north, where the direction was Jinzhou. Xingshan Fort was captured and the family members of Zu were arrested. Zu Dashou, what do you want to do? Now both sides have hostages, what will the result of the negotiations be?

"Sir, the Green Dragon Legion has started to board the ship."

Wang Shide arrived and reported.

"Order the Navy to send them to Fort Songshan as soon as possible."

Zhang Zhun said quietly.

The situation in Liaodong is very complicated. He has no powerful force around him and has no way to speak at all. Without strong armed forces in his hands, no one can listen to his words. This is a very realistic problem. All official titles are fake, and only strength is real. Gao Qiqian and Wu Aheng, who have such high official positions, weren’t they killed by Zu Dashou in the end? What did Zu Dashou rely on? They were not a group of servants and slaves? These so-called servants and slaves are his private army, and Zu Dashou’s private armed forces.

At that time, Li Chengliang had eight thousand servants, all armed to the teeth. Not only did the enemies in Liaodong worry about him, but the enemies of the court also worry about him, and even Emperor Wanli was a little worried about him. Eight thousand aggressive servants were placed anywhere, which was a huge threat. Emperor Wanli thought about it, but in the end, he would let Li Chengliang stay outside the pass. Otherwise, when this guy went to the mainland, his eight thousand servants would have caused some trouble.

Zu Dashou was not as powerful as Li Chengliang, and there were still two thousand servants. In addition, the number of other servants was more than 5,000. It seemed that Zu Dabi and others also had their own servants, with a number of at least more than 500. These five thousand servants armed to the teeth were Zu Dashou's last capital. They only followed the orders of their respective family heads and were completely armed outside the Liaodong military system.

Gao Qiqian and Wu Aheng's personal soldiers were less than a thousand. Whether in equipment or training, they were not as good as Zu Dashou and others' five thousand servants. This is the most fundamental reason why they were concerned about Zu Dashou. Based on these five thousand servants, they were really indirectly controlled troops, with a larger number.

Long Feihu, who created a rebellion in Songshan Fort that day and tried to make a move for Zhang Zhun, turned out to be Zu Dashou's servant, and later became an officer. It seemed like Long Feihu, there were many officers from Zu Dashou's servant team. Through such a sprawling line, the Liaodong Army had at least 50,000 people, which were in the hands of Zu Dashou Group.

At present, Zhang Zhun had only two battalions of troops on hand, about 3,000. Compared with the 50,000 people controlled by Zu Dashou, the number was indeed too small. Obviously, such troops prevented Zhang Zhun from making a decisive voice in Liaodong. If the Qinglong Legion arrived, the situation would be better.

The Qinglong Legion is the first field corps mixed by the Hu Ben Army, with a total of ten assistants and fifty squads under its jurisdiction. If it is not counted as officers, there are a total of 2,500 soldiers. If it is counted as officers, there are about 3,000 people. If it is included in the auxiliary combat troops, such as artillery, engineers, etc., the number is close to 4,000. It can be said that this is the most powerful infantry legion of the Hu Ben Army so far.

Only when this powerful infantry army corps is stationed in Liaodong can Zhang Zhun be qualified to become the number one figure in Liaodong. His words can have a decisive influence on Liaodong. Otherwise, he will definitely be ranked in Gao Qiqian, and after Wu Aheng and Zu Dashou, he will become the number four figure.

"clear!"

Wang Shide turned around and went.

At noon, Zhang Zhun rode his horse to the Jinzhou front line and sent the Liaodong army outside the city to conduct intense negotiations with the rebels in the city. Because the rebels seized the families of many Liaodong army officers, many Liaodong army officers were very nervous.

If the negotiation is successful, their families will be preserved. If the negotiations break down, their families will be killed by Zu Dashou. Between the gains and losses, some people even pointed the finger at the Hu Ben Army, believing that it was the Hu Ben Army that forced Zu Dashou to surrender, which would lead to Zu Dashou's rebellion.

"This is a typical shit that is hard without any sting!

Zhang Zhun sneered.

Zhang Zhun didn't like the faces of some people in the Liaodong Army. However, if he didn't like them, he couldn't kill them all. It's not the time to start a massacre. The Hu Ben Army still had to fight for a group of people first, and then eliminate a group of people. If the massacre was launched at this time, only Zu Dashou and Huang Taiji were laughing.

At this time, Zu Dashou hoped that the other Liaodong troops would all come together to fight against the Hu Ben Army. As long as this goal was achieved, the entire Liaodong army would become Zhang Zhun's enemy. Even if he could not defeat Zhang Zhun in the end, he could cause a lot of trouble for Zhang Zhun. At the same time, under Zhang Zhun's threat, they could surrender to the Tartars more openly and justly.

Because it was not very popular, Zhang Zhun went around the Jinzhou front line and came back. After he came back, Zhang Zhun moved a small stool, sat in front of the map, concentrating on the map of Liaodong, and ignored the external affairs for the time being. The power in his hands was not strong enough and he couldn't control it. Instead of keeping his word, it would be better not to say it.

"Sir, Wu Sangui is here."

In the evening, Zhang Zhun suddenly received a report.

"please!"

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

Wu Sangui has become the liaison specialist between Gao Qiqian and Zhang Zhun. If Gao Qiqian has something to discuss with Zhang Zhun, the first thing that comes to mind is the general of Shanhaiguan. Since Wu Sangui has arrived, it means that Gao Qiqian must have discussed with Zhang Zhun.

In other words, Liaodong will restrain more troops from the Hu Ben Army and consume more population and money and food. In this way, after the Liaodong Army retreats to the mainland, the pressure from the Hu Ben Army will be reduced, making it easier for them to act in the future.

I have to say that the two of them are still a little clever, and they can figure out this way of killing two birds with one stone. However, their cleverness has ended here. If they were very clever, they would not have given Zu Dashou the chance to rebel.

After a moment of silence, Wu Sangui said cautiously: "Zu Dashou also specifically proposed to retreat north through Liushui Castle."

Zhang Zhun looked at the map and found that Liushui Fortress was in the north of Jinzhou. Through Liushui Fortress, it was Yizhou controlled by the Tatars. Yizhou is also a strategic fortress, communicating the relationship between Liaodong and the southern part of the Mongolqin tribe. Once Yizhou is occupied by the Huben Army, the connection between the Tatars and the southern part of the Korqin tribe will be subject to a certain extent. Once the Huben Army continues to capture Guangning, the relationship between the Tatars and the southern part of the Mongolqin tribe will be completely cut off.

Zu Dashou chose such an escape route, obviously because he was worried about being attacked by the Tiger Army of Dalinghe Fort. In fact, the Tiger Army stationed at Dalinghe Fort had only one dissatisfied battalion and was unable to attack Zu Dashou. Zu Dashou was obviously a frightened bird and he was thinking too much.

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I have no objection."

Wu Sangui was obviously relieved and said relaxedly: "Then there is no problem."

What he was most worried about was that Zhang Zhun refused Zu Dashou to escape, and then refused Zu Dashou to retreat north from Liushui Fortress. If Zhang Zhun did this, many people from the Liaodong Army would become Zhang Zhun's mortal enemies. Their whole family was killed by Zu Dashou because of Zhang Zhun, so of course they would take their anger on Zhang Zhun.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhun's judgment was still very accurate, and he would not be easily deceived by Zu Dashou. When it was time to let go, Zhang Zhun let go decisively. Since Zhang Zhun can defeat Huang Taiji and Dorgon, a person like Zu Dashou cannot catch Zhang Zhun's eyes. There is no difference between dealing with him now and dealing with him later.

"Huh? Why do I have this idea?"

Wu Sangui suddenly felt very strange. Why did he hope that Zhang Zhun would not fall into the trap? Zhang Zhun was trapped but still didn't seem to have anything to do with him, Wu Sangui? Zhang Zhun was trapped, Liaodong Army and Hu Ben Army fought to death, and Wu Sangui could also be left out. If Zhang Zhun didn't fall into the trap, Wu Sangui wouldn't seem to get any benefits.

Could it be that in your subconscious, you actually have an inexplicable favor to Zhang Zhun or Zhang Zhun's Hu Benjun? If you don't have a favor, how could you care about Zhang Zhun's decision? No matter what decision he makes, it has nothing to do with him? It's so strange.

Zhang Zhun obviously didn't know Wu Sangui's confusion. He was silent for a moment and frowned and said, "Zu Dashou returned from escaping. Do you have any supplies?"

Wu Sangui said: "There are only some personal property, all of which are gold, silver and wealth. No matter how much you give him, he can't take it away!"

Zhang Zhun nodded thoughtfully.

Zu Dashou escaped to the Tartars, and as long as he did not carry the population and supplies, Zhang Zhun was not worried. Zu Dashou would never change the current predicament of the Great Jin Kingdom, nor could he save the fate of the Great Jin Kingdom's demise. On the contrary, Zu Dashou's crime of traitor was completely confirmed, so he could better deal with him in the future.

In fact, it can be inferred from the surrender of Zu Dashou that only 5,000 people followed him. When Zu Dashou launched a rebellion, there were more than 30,000 troops in Jinzhou City, but only 5,000 people were willing to follow Zu Dashou to join the Tartars. These 5,000 people should be the team of Zu Dashou and his backbone trusted servants. Obviously, the other Liaodong troops were somewhat concerned about surrendering to the Tartars.

If it were before, when the Great Jin Kingdom was domineering and arrogant, when Huang Taiji was sweeping across the world, Zu Dashou would have been able to lead a mere 5,000 people to surrender, and even lead a 50,000 people to surrender. It was even very likely that even Jinzhou and Xingshan Fort fell into the hands of the Tatars. But now, it is far from that.

With Zhang Zhun's consent, that night, Zu Dashou led his army to leave Jinzhou overnight. There were indeed only five thousand servants and their families who followed him. After leaving Jinzhou, Zu Dashou quickly headed north, passed Liushui Castle, and fled towards Yizhou.

Afterwards, Cao Wenzhao, Cao Bianjiao, Tang Tong and others led their troops to Jinzhou, and Gao Qiqian and Wu Aheng also entered Jinzhou. The detained soldiers' families hugged their heads and cried with their relatives. The rebellion launched by Zu Dashou temporarily came to an end. However, this incident was just the beginning for Liaodong.

There is no doubt that for Zhang Zhun, this matter was a bit uncomfortable. He watched Zu Dashou launch a rebellion and finally successfully surrender to the Tartars. During this process, the Hu Ben Army had no power to stop it. I have to say that this was a very depressing thing.

If the Hu Ben Army had enough power, it would definitely take Zu Dashou and then behead him publicly. This is the end of the traitor! However, the power of the Hu Ben Army in Liaodong is indeed not strong enough, so he can only be depressed for the time being. Perhaps, when the Qinglong Legion arrives, the depressed days will be over.

"Governor, Army Supervisor and Army Supervisor asked you to move to Jinzhou. They held a banquet in Jinzhou to welcome your arrival. Zu Dashou left, and our army will also officially retreat to the mainland."

The next morning, as a liaison specialist, Wu Sangui appeared in front of Zhang Zhun again and invited Zhang Zhun to Jinzhou for a banquet. Originally, the banquet should have been held a few days ago, but due to Zu Dashou's rebellion, it had to be postponed for a few days.

"good!"

Zhang Zhun nodded.

Not long after Wu Sangui left, the Qinglong Legion led by Yang Zhiyuan happened to arrive. Their arrival made Zhang Zhun's depressed mood swept away. If the Qinglong Legion had arrived one day earlier, Zu Dashou would not have escaped. Unfortunately, there was no if in the world.

"Let's go to Jinzhou!"

Zhang Zhun said without hesitation.
Chapter completed!
