Chapter 163 Doubts
As more than a hundred guards led the guards and more than ten thousand miners to the north of the Ma Company, the entire Ma Company was completely quiet. Lin Chunhong wiped the cold sweat from his head and said to the messenger beside him: "Immediately order Biheyan to allocate 100,000 taels of silver to come over!"
The messenger came out, and Lin Chunhong said to Kong De again: "Help me remember, add 10% of the money from the merchants after requisitioning the merchant's money..."
Lin Chunhong breathed a long sigh and completely relaxed from the tension. During this relaxation, Lin Chunhong felt his whole body sore and weak, and he had no strength left. He collapsed on the chair, slowly closed his eyes, and had a little rest. His physical and mental fatigue over the past few days had almost dragged down his body.
He believed that the upcoming war was almost suspense, and the chaotic bandits were burning and chaotic, and they were not as good as guarding, so they should not be the opponent.
More than twenty miles north of Malian, the miners who burned the floor were coming to Malian all over the mountains and fields, bewitched by the nail salon.
"Ma Lian has silver..."
"Ma Lian has a suffering brother..."
"Brothers, isn't Bontae's torture you miserable enough? If you are a man, you should take revenge..."
...
The bewitching words stimulated every miner, and the miners followed the soldiers without hesitation.
But the miners carrying pickaxes and shovels cannot be called army at all, not to mention that they have almost no queues, and just as the masses move forward, they believe that as soon as they arrive at Malian, there will be white silver waiting for them to take, and countless suffering brothers will join them.
Of course, it is impossible for this group of mobs to send out a visit, so they are confused about the dangers that are coming.
"Kill..." A fierce shout sounded, and more than a hundred steel warriors rushed towards the mob like thunder. Cheng Si used the guards as the sharp sword, the guards as the backbone, and thousands of miners as the periphery, and immediately fought with the miners who burned the pings!
More than 300 soldiers of Rong Mei were caught off guard and were suddenly swept away by Lin Chunhong's guards and fell into a tough battle. After the guards easily penetrated the group of soldiers, they did not stop at all, rushed into the group of Huoshaoping miners, and inserted it into the enemy's chest like a sharp knife. The group of miners, which was already extremely chaotic, suddenly scattered, and the miners turned around and fled.
The guards followed the guards and cleanly wiped out all the remaining soldiers, clearing out the obstacles for more than 10,000 miners to advance. At this time, what surprised the guards and the guards was that more than 10,000 miners were like tigers in the mountains and chased the miners who burned the floor all over the mountains without any pity or sympathy. They even didn't let the miners squat on the ground with their heads in their arms. After chopping and slashing, they cut off their heads, hung them on their waists, and continued to chase and kill the fleeing enemies.
The stimulation of twenty taels of silver is indeed extraordinary!
"Surrender to avoid death..." The shouts of soldiers echoed in the valley, and nearly 6,000 miners became prisoners again...
An imminent crisis was finally resolved by Lin Chunhong. The fire burned, and Ma Lian and Biheyan turned into danger.
Biheyan was confused about what happened to Ma Lian and Huoshaoping. It was not until Lin Chunhong's order to allocate Yinliang to the death, and Peng Xin immediately led dozens of minor officials of the chieftains to take Yinliang to Ma Lian by boat.
When Peng Xin arrived at Ma Lian, he saw a group of prisoners being escorted to the dock. Moreover, the person escorted the prisoners was not someone else, but a vicious miner!
Peng Xin breathed a sigh of relief, patted his forehead and sighed: "Oh, it's a good luck that there is a general, and it's a good luck that there is a general!"
Immediately afterwards, Lin Chunhong rushed to Yangbanqiao without stopping.
Before Lin Chunhong turned Yang Banqiao down, Zhou Wang had already received the battle report from Ma Lian.
Over the past period of time, Zhou Wang's hair was almost half white, struggling to support the battle situation in Qingjiang. Unfortunately, things went against their wishes, and the battle situation was getting worse every day, and this time, it almost caused a disaster. Zhou Wang could not imagine at all, if Lin Chunhong arrived at Ma Lian one step later, the entire Bangtai would face.
Zhou Wang reached into his sleeve and touched the resignation in his sleeve, feeling mixed feelings. This unfavorable battle will definitely affect his status in the Pavilion. Instead of staying in the Pavilion, it is better to take a step back and accumulate military achievements. Zhou Wang was fighting this idea.
What's more, Lin Chunhong had a brilliant victory in the north and won consecutive victories, which also stimulated Zhou Wang. Zhou Wang was over fifty years old. When he was young, he first followed Li Rubai to beat the Mongols hard, and then went to Korea to fight the Japanese. Finally, inexplicably, he suffered a defeat in the Battle of Sarhu. After Li Rubai was defeated and surrendered, he came to Jingzhou with Lin Dewen. After more than ten years of war, Zhou Wang could never forget the white mountains and black waters of Liaodong, nor could he forget his brothers who died. He always had a strong wish in his heart, which was to return to the vast black soil of Liaodong and compete with Jiannu!
"Hey, General Li, General Li, he was defeated too unfairly back then..."
Zhou Wang thought about it deep, couldn't help but sigh and murmured.
A voice came from behind me: "Father-in-law, what are you talking about when you mention your son-in-law and grandfather?"
Zhou Wang was startled. When he saw clearly that it was Lin Chunhong, he quickly knelt on the ground and saluted, "Zhou Wang has seen the general."
Lin Chunhong was at a loss and hurriedly replied, then helped Zhou Wang up and muttered in a low voice: "Why is the father-in-law like this? How can the son-in-law bear it!"
Zhou Wang said seriously: "The army is the most important, how can you and I take the lead in disobeying it?"
Lin Chunhong smiled embarrassedly, "What my father-in-law is giving advice", and then the two of them entered the house together.
The atmosphere in the room was absolutely not very enthusiastic. The two of them were very thoughtful and didn't know how to speak. They savored the tea one by one, as if they were drinking jade juice.
Finally, Zhou Wang took out his resignation from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Chunhong, saying slowly: "Since Dong Haichuan sent troops, his subordinates have been incompetent, and their troops have been cut off. The Qingjiang River and Yidu are in chaos. Please punish the general! Our country is well-off and punished, and our subordinates cannot hold their position. Please resign from the second position of the envoy of the Pavilion and the Governor's Office!"
Lin Chunhong looked at the resignation letter, but did not take over, and said with a cold face: "The battle situation is unfavorable. Although there is a factor of insufficient troops, my father-in-law's decision is real..."
Lin Chunhong shook his head and continued: "The crime of ineffective combat will be judged by the Military and Justice Department and reported to the Supervision Office for review. The most urgent task now is to turn the situation around and completely wipe out Tian Chuchan. It is not advisable to make major moves at present."
Zhou Wang was sad. Before, he always thought about the situation, hoping that everyone would realize the difficulty of Bangtai's hastily responding to the battle and the weak force. Now, Lin Chunhong broke his delusion in his own words, which disappointed him. He knew that Lin Chunhong had set the tone, and that the three sour scholars of Zhang Daohan would not step on him to death?
The result of asking for resignation is the same as resigning due to punishment, but the nature is completely different!
Zhou Wang felt a bitterness in his heart, and this bitterness made him feel wronged and helpless.
He suddenly remembered that someone had reported to him that Zhu Zhiyu had suggested that Lin Chunhong restrict Zhou Wang's power, saying that his wife's power was too great and that he would be in chaos for a long time. At that time, he severely punished the villain who was making trouble. Looking back now, he felt a little uneasy. Could it be that Lin Chunhong wanted to take this opportunity to suppress himself severely?
Zhou Wang was silent for a long time, and asked, "When will the fourth camp of Tianwu, Tiance, Pili and the Cavalry arrive at Qingjiang?"
"The Cavalry Camp was borrowed by Xu Chengyan. It is estimated that in ten days, Tianwu, Tiance and Pili Battalions will arrive in Zhijiang. This time in Xiangyang, Tang Hui is preparing to hand over the defenses of Jingmen, Jingzhou and Yiling to us..." Lin Chunhong informed the transaction with Tang Hui in detail.
Zhou Wang's depressed heart was obviously fading a lot, but Lin Chunhong took the opportunity to suppress himself and lingered in his heart like a poisonous snake, and could not be driven away. He thought for a while and tentatively said: "Jingmen is in the north, protecting Jingzhou, and his status is extraordinary. Why not, after destroying Tian Chuchan, his subordinates went to Jingmen to be responsible for defense?"
Lin Chunhong didn't think about it and flatly refused: "No, my father-in-law has more important things to do!"
"What's up?"
"We suffered a great loss from insufficient troops. Now there is a shortage of military officers. My son-in-law hopes that his father-in-law will be responsible for the teaching camp and military preparatory school in Jingzhou!"
"Teaching Camp?" It's okay for the Martial Arts School. Zhou Wang understood it as soon as he heard it, but the teaching camp was obviously a new term, and Zhou Wang had never heard of it.
"It is the troops that teach military officers how to fight in practice. They are all veterans and experienced military officers..."
Zhou Wang's heart sank little by little. Whether it is the Martial Arts School or the Teaching Battalion, it is nothing more than a place for training. It seems that Lin Chunhong was worried that he would lead the troops directly to fight and suppress the so-called wife tribe.
Lin Chunhong was still talking nonstop to explain the teaching camp: "From the future, most of our military officers came from the teaching camp, and their command ability must be stronger than now. In time, the Jingzhou Army will be the most elite army in the world..."
Zhou Wang didn't listen to Lin Chunhong's words at all. He felt extremely sad and couldn't help but sigh: "The three brothers were roaming Liaodong back then, how happy and proud! After Sarhu, everything was over! Alas, everything was over! In this life, it seems that I have no chance to compete with Jiannu!"
There is infinite bleakness in the words, which makes people unable to bear to listen.
Lin Chunhong looked at Zhou Wang in surprise. He wondered why Zhou Wang said this, so he hurriedly comforted him: "Father-in-law, one prefecture and two prefectures are about to be obtained, and he is still worried that there is no chance to fight Jiannu? I guess it is not far away..."
