Chapter 851 Entering the New Pingbao
Lao Wu gathered the war horses left by the official army, led the chest-plated cavalry back to the flanks, and came to see Chen Xunping himself.
"Entertainment, Li Huaixin has been let go, and there are less than ten people left by his side." Lao Wu said to Chen Xunping.
Chen Xunping nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, the next thing is our barracks. People come and pass on my orders and enter the city."
The big flag with the tiger flag flutters in the wind.
Chen Xunping led his army to move towards the Xinpingbao City Gate.
The army did not all enter the city, and only one thousand-man team followed Chen Xunping, Zhao Yutu and others into Xinping Fort, while the other soldiers and breastplate cavalry remained outside the city.
There were many corpses piled up at the city gate, most of which were the corpses of official soldiers, as well as the corpses of more than a dozen of Li Huaixin's personal soldiers wearing helmets and armor.
"If you pass the order, anyone who dares to defend and defend will be killed without mercy." Chen Xunping ordered.
Half an hour later, the tiger-like flag with the character "Tiger" was inserted on the head of Xinpingbao.
The shouts of killing in Xinpingbao City disappeared, and teams of officers and soldiers were controlled in the open space in the city, each of whom was squatting on the ground with his upper body and his head in his arms.
Not far away, a bunch of weapons were scattered, including knives, spears, and water and fire sticks used by yamen runners.
"The camp is in full swing, and all the rebellious forces in Xinping Fort have been wiped out." The person who came to Chen Xunping to report was the captain of the 1,000-person team of the First Battle Army Camp.
Chen Xunping nodded, then turned his head and said to Zhao Yutu: "My mission has been completed, and the rest will be left to Mr. Zhao. I will leave two teams of thousands of people to assist Mr. Zhao in the city."
"Don't the army enter the city?" Zhao Yutu asked.
Chen Xunping shook his head and said, "Xinping Fortress is too small. The army cannot be used after entering the city. I will still take the army back to the camp of the grassland. If there is anything wrong with Xinping Fortress, I can also come to help in time."
When Xinping Fort was lost, he did not think that the court would give up and would definitely send troops to take back Xinping Fort.
"Okay, I stay in Xinpingbao, and the merchants in the fort also need to be comforted." Zhao Yutu did not persuade the army to stay and stationed in Xinpingbao.
The two thousand-man teams had more than 2,000 soldiers, and he believed that they were enough to defend Xinpingbao.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Chen Xunping led his army to leave from Xinping Fort and return to the camp on the grassland.
Li Huaixin, who escaped on the other side, rushed towards Datong Prefecture City without stopping.
It was the second day when he returned to Datong Prefecture City.
As soon as he came back, he went directly to the General's Mansion.
Xinping Fort fell into the hands of the traitor, which was a major event. As the guardian of Xinping Fort, he lost Xinping Fort and was responsible for losing his territory. He was the general Zhang Huai. He also hoped to reduce or relieve his guilt through Zhang Huai.
The fact that Zhang Huai's defeat in Lingqiu is no longer a secret. Datong has spread all over the place. It can be said that good things don't go out, and bad things go through thousands of miles.
Since returning to Datong Prefecture, Zhang Huai has been in the General's Mansion and has not left, waiting for the court to punish him soon.
As soon as Li Huaixin arrived at the General's Mansion, he was immediately taken in.
After seeing Zhang Huai, Li Huaixin knelt down on the ground and cried: "The general was incompetent and failed to defend Xinping Fort, which caused Xinping Fort to fall into the hands of the traitors of the Tiger Flag. Please punish the general."
After saying that, he lowered his head.
Zhang Huai's face changed and he said in surprise: "What? Are you saying that Xinpingbao is lost?"
"Report to the Lord, Xinpingbao is lost." Li Huaixin said with his head down.
Zhang Huai hurriedly asked, "What's going on? You and I will talk about it in detail."
Li Huaixin told the story in detail.
After listening, Zhang Huai slapped the table next to him and said coldly: "The people with the tiger flag are so brave. If they dare to attack Xinpingbao, aren't they afraid of the furious court?"
Wang Qingyuan next to him whispered: "Sir, the court has already designated the tiger flag as a rebel, and they are no longer afraid of whether the court will be furious."
After hearing this, Zhang Huaicai remembered that the tiger-shaped flag was no longer the previous tiger-shaped flag, but a rebel recognized by the court.
"I would like to ask the Lord to save the life of the official." Li Huaixin kowtowed and bowed.
He used to be just a garrison of Lingqiu, but later he was able to become a general of Xinpingbao. General Zhang Huai also put in his strength, so he could only ask Zhang Huai for his place, and no one else would care about him.
Zhang Huai sighed and said, "I am now unable to protect myself. The position of General Datong will soon change hands, and I will not be able to save you."
"Ah!" Li Huaixin was stunned.
He didn't expect that Zhang Huai could not save him anymore, and at this time he became panicked.
Zhang Huai looked at him and said, "You go with me to see the governor and see if the governor can save you. After all, the responsibility for losing the land is a serious crime. Even if the governor saves you, the position of the general of the Eastern Road will not be saved."
"You can continue to take office as the general of the Eastern Road without asking for help. As long as you can save your life, you can say sincerely." Li Huaixin said.
At this time, he didn't dare to think too much. Now that Xinpingbao is lost, he is content to survive. After all, he is just a general, not a member of the general, and there is no aid in the court.
Soon, Zhang Huai brought Li Huaixin to the Governor's Office.
Xinpingbao was taken down by the tiger flag, which is a big deal. As the head of Datong civil servants, the governor of Datong must know such a big thing, and he must report it to the court as soon as possible.
After meeting Governor Liu.
Li Huaixinhe scolded him fiercely. After all, the loss of Xinping Fortress. As the governor of Datong, Governor Liu also has to take responsibility. More importantly, the loss of Xinping Fortress proves that the tiger flag has begun to attack Datong Prefecture and counties. Maybe the troops will be sent to Datong Prefecture and County soon.
Shortly after Xinping Fort was lost, many officials in Datong Prefecture were unaware of this, but the incident of Zhang Huai's defeat in Lingqiu has spread.
Nowadays, the prefectures and counties in Datong are in a tense situation, and the city gates are only open for one hour a day, for fear that the army with the tiger flag will return to attack the county town.
Yanghewei is the old nest of the inspector Wang Xinyi.
Since he learned about Zhang Huai's defeat, he did not dare to leave his house all day long, for fear that the people with the Tiger Flag would come to him. After all, after all, such a big thing happened, he knew that it was caused by himself, for fear that the Tiger Flag would come to him to settle the score.
Yanghewei also has soldiers. The soldiers guard the city every day, and the city gate only opens once a few days to prevent the tiger flag army from suddenly attacking.
Wang Xinyi didn't even leave the yamen these days, and stayed in the yamen every day. Teams of soldiers guarded several doors of the yamen, and even soldiers guarded the outside of the house where he was sleeping.
If the term of office of the inspector had not yet reached, he would have wanted to flee back to the capital immediately.
