Chapter 723(1/2)
September 15th.
Under the banner of "capturing the traitor Huo Qing and returning Xuanbei to clear skies", the Northern Governor-General marched northward.
The battle against Huo has officially begun.
However, one hundred thousand imperial troops have not yet arrived at Taibai Mansion.
The Zhenbei army stationed in Yanzhen County was divided into two groups.
Go all the way north to raid Yongming Pass.
Go all the way south to attack Jintian Mansion.
On the same day, Yongming Pass fell and the captured barbarian army was defeated.
The current champion, Houou Shinichi, is nowhere to be found.
On the same day, Jintian Mansion fell.
The current governor of Wuding County, Song Yuan, died in battle, and his head was hung high on the Jintianfu Gate Tower.
The four northern counties fell into the hands of the Prince of Zhenbei.
The leading generals of the 100,000 Imperial Army did not dare to advance rashly. They set up defenses in Pinglang County and Jintian County at the junction of Taibai Mansion and Wuding County, waiting for the imperial court to deploy the army and capture the fighter opportunities.
…
When the imperial court and Zhenbei Palace were at war, what was Zhang Chu doing?
He is still practicing the "Five Directions and Five Emperors Returning to the Yuan Dynasty" with concentration, and is focused on arranging the grain that the Beiping Alliance transports into Xuanbei Prefecture from other prefectures.
Men should not give up halfway when doing things!
However, the forces that had the ability to probe the information within the Beiping Alliance were shocked to find that the main force of the Beiping Alliance, the Honghua Division, had disappeared.
Also missing were all members of the Red Flower Branch in the three major branches in northwest Yanxi.
The structures of branch halls, branches, and incense halls at all levels of the Beiping League were generally copied from the general rudder of Taipingguan.
The main rudder of Taipingguan is equipped with green leaves, red flowers, thick soil, three rivers and four parts.
In charge of business, military affairs, administration and personnel affairs.
Branch halls, branch halls and incense halls at all levels also have green leaves, red flowers, thick soil, three rivers and four parts.
In addition to the vertical management system of the main altar, branch halls, branch rudders and incense halls.
The four departments of the General Forum and the four departments at each level also have vertical management authority.
The Honghua Department of Taipingguan General Altar was born out of the Qianyuan Army last year.
Before that, there were only two to three thousand standing members of the Red Flower Department within the Taipingguan General Altar.
Each branch, branch, and Honghua Department of Xiangtang all have armed forces ranging from two thousand to several hundred.
During the Northern Xinjiang War last year, Zhang Chu mobilized the elites of the Honghua Department from Xuanbeitang, Xiliangtang, and Yanbeitang to form the Qianyuan Army.
During the Northern Xinjiang War, each branch, branch, and Xiangtang re-absorbed and trained a group of martial arts practitioners to make up for the shortfall in their own Red Flower Departments.
First, maintain its normal operation.
Secondly, it also reserves reserve troops for the alliance leader who is fighting in the northern Xinjiang.
After the great victory in northern Xinjiang, only more than 7,000 Qianyuan troops were left and disbanded on the spot.
However, many brothers from the Red Flower Club who were transferred from the branch halls and branches have nowhere to go.
The vacancies they left behind have been occupied by newcomers.
Rushing to send these veterans who have been on the battlefield and massacred the northern barbarians back to their place of origin may also lead to hidden dangers.
At that time, after many discussions between Zhang Chu and the senior officials of the Peking League, they decided to simply add 8,000 men to guard Taiping Pass as a standing force.
Since then, the Red Flower Department, which was already large in numbers, has expanded again, with personnel exceeding 15,000!
These fifteen thousand people disappeared from the public this time.
Fifteen thousand elite warriors with seven thousand battlefield veterans!
At this moment, the Beiping Alliance was surprisingly weak.
Except for a very small number of management personnel with considerable military force, all branches and rudders are composed of civilian personnel.
If some top power takes advantage of this moment to attack the Beiping Alliance, it will be able to overthrow the Beiping Alliance's years of accumulation in four or five days.
But at this moment, the Beiping Alliance was unprecedentedly powerful.
The Peiping Alliance, which has assembled fifteen thousand elite warriors, even the Northern Governor's Mansion and Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, which have entered the confrontation stage, are a little frightened!
As long as Zhang Chu is willing, he can capture all the rivers and lakes in the three northern states of Yanbei in four to five days!
It was also at this time that many people remembered that Zhang Chu was not only a flying master who could single-handedly kill the powerful flying warriors of the Northern Barbarians.
He was also a battlefield veteran who defeated the Northern Barbarians and made them lose their armor...
No one knows what Zhang Chu wants to do.
Are you helping the court to defeat King Zhenbei?
Or help King Zhenbei conquer the court?
Or maybe they took advantage of the chaos and bulldozed the Wusheng Palace and the Heavenly Demon Palace...
But just because everyone knew what Zhang Chu wanted to do, it was particularly terrifying that the Beiping Alliance suddenly gathered a large number of troops!
No one wants to think that when they are in a fierce battle with the enemy, a red-hot steel knife suddenly appears and stabs them in the anus...
A while ago, the main altar of the Peiping League was deserted and there were few cars and horses. It felt like someone had pulled out the chamber pot and stuffed it under the bed after using it.
Suddenly, it became lively.
Officials from the state capital and the Northern Governor's Palace.
Special envoy from Zhenbei Palace.
Messenger from the Immortal Palace…
They brought handwritten letters with them.
Carrying batches of gold and silver jewelry.
Everyone wants to see Zhang Chu.
But Zhang Chu saw no one.
None of the letters or gifts they brought were confiscated.
how come.
Just go back anyway.
…
Until the end of September.
Two more 100,000-strong imperial troops entered Xuanbei.
An army of 300,000 people hoarded the boundary markers between Beiyin County and Wuding County, sharpening their swords and preparing to invade the four northern counties.
Ying Yong, the governor of the north, made a special detour to Taiping Pass before heading north to request a meeting with Zhang Chu.
The reply he received was that Zhang Chu was not at Taiping Pass and had no intention of intervening in the war between the imperial court and the Zhenbei Palace.
Have no intention of intervening in the war between the imperial court and Zhenbei Palace?
Then what do you do with the heavy troops assembled by your Beiping Alliance?
Going to the theater?
Perhaps the 300,000 troops gave Yingyong the confidence.
He did not force a meeting with Zhang Chu.
I only had one meal at Taipingguan, left a letter, and then left Taipingguan and headed north.
The letter he left was quickly delivered to Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu opened it and took a look. There were only five bold words on the letter: A hero breaks the law with force.
Words are not the point.
The key point is the red seal in the lower left corner of the letter: A treasure to punish sins and bring peace to the people!
This is one of the emperor's jade seals.
A specific jade seal dedicated to "conquer with Zhang"!
Handwritten by the Emperor.
Plus this specific jade seal.
The meaning...
However, Zhang Chu just sneered and waved his hand, and the letter in his hand turned into a ball of flame and slowly fell.
To be continued...
