Chapter 1790

Teams of soldiers rushed to various streets in the city to suppress the turmoil in the city and search for the hiding defenders in the city.

Yu Huai is in charge of the county government.

"Reported that Xiao Ying was leading the Third Battle Battalion to successfully ambush the Shenwu Guard army ten miles away from Shouyang City, capturing the commander Meng Bai, the commander-in-chief, and one assistant commander-in-chief, and one person in charge of the capital. After the experience, one person in charge of the capital, more than three thousand soldiers and horses were captured." The flying cavalry who rushed back from outside the city brought back the news of the Third Battle Battalion for Yu Huai.

"Okay." Yu Huai excitedly slapped the table with his hand.

The three reinforcements sent by the court to Shanxi were defeated, and only the reinforcements sent by the court, Yulin Town and Xuanwu Wei were left.

At this time, Qiao Yuansheng strode from outside and walked in.

"You are here just in time for Qiao Ying. Xiao Kui has defeated Shenwu Guard and cut off one of the tentacles sent by the court to Shanxi." Yu Huai pulled Qiao Yuansheng and said happily.

Qiao Yuansheng smiled and said, "It's great. Without this army from the Shenwu Guard, we will be able to move eastward to pacify Dingzhou."

"Get the map." Yu Huai turned his head and said to his guard.

The guard pulled out a map of the entire Shanxi from the drum behind him and spread it on the table.

Yu Huai and Qiao Yuansheng walked to the table with the map.

Yu Huai pointed at Pingdingzhou and said, "I am going to divide the troops. Your Second Battle Barracks and Xiao Kui's Third Battle Barracks will attack Pingding Heleping respectively. Take these two places and pacify Dingzhou and my hands. Then we can go south to attack Heshun, Liaozhou."

His fingers slid down from Pingdingzhou and fell to Heshun County, between Liaozhou and Pingdingzhou.

"When will the troops be sent?" Qiao Yuansheng asked.

Yu Huai said: "The army stayed in Shouyang for the past two days and waited for the land distribution to be almost done. The army can set sail eastward and take over the two counties of Dinghe Leping."

"Zhending Prefecture borders Pingding Prefecture. After we occupy Pingding Prefecture, Jingxing Pass needs to send troops to garrison. Our few troops may need to leave some of them at Jingxing Pass." Qiao Yuansheng pointed at Jingxing Pass between Pingding Prefecture and Zhending Prefecture and said.

Yu Huai said: "You don't have to worry about the issue of military and horses. The general has sent the newly formed Dragoon Division to support and assist our Third War Soldier Division and Personal Soldier Division to speed up the acquisition of the entire Shanxi."

"The Dragoon Division uses horses to travel, and I'm afraid we will arrive before we can attack Liaozhou." Qiao Yuansheng said happily.

The newly formed Dragoon Division has always been left on the grassland, specifically used to defend against the northern desert and left-wing Mongolian tribes. It was the first time that it came to the Ming Dynasty from the grassland.

Moreover, the Dragoon Division is equipped with a large number of mules and horses, and the marching speed is far greater than that of several combat divisions.

Yu Huai said: "It's not that fast. When the personal military division encountered the soldiers from Yulin Town, the Dragoon Division was likely to support the personal military division first and cooperate with the personal military division to solve the soldiers from Yulin Town."

The Shenwu Guard and Xuanwu Guard were both commanders and commanders, and belonged to one of the twelve guards. They were once the emperor's personal army, but later they were the Ministry of War and were handed over to civil servants to command. Slowly, like other commanders and commanders, they began to decline, and their strength was no longer as good as before.

Yulin Town belongs to the Jiubian and has always been fighting against the Mongols on the grassland. Although it is far inferior to the Yongle period of Hongwu, it still has a few points of strength left, which is stronger than the commander commander of most of the top twelve guards.

"When will we divide the fields?" Qiao Yuansheng asked.

Every time the army captured a place, it would cooperate with the personnel who divided the fields to divide the fields to ensure the smooth progress of the fields.

"The farmer's association has begun to be formed outside Shouyang City, and the land will be divided at most half a day. With the cooperation of the farmer's association, it will not take too long to divide the land. At that time, we only need to leave a small number of soldiers to help manage local personnel to train the farmer's soldiers. The army can leave Shouyang first." Yu Huai said.

Qiao Yuansheng nodded.

The army rushed from Taiyuan to Shouyang, and only stayed for one night before sieging Shouyang City. The army also needed to be renovated to continue advancing eastward.

It was getting dark, and Xiao Kui and a team of people entered Shouyang City.

After taking down Shouyang City, the food and grass were replenished. That night, the army stewed all the dozens of sheep sent by the gentry in the city in a large pot to reward the army.

Not only was the mutton stewed in the pot, but there were large pieces of potatoes and sweet potato vermicelli. Before I could cook, the sky above Shouyang City was filled with the tempting fragrance of saliva.

The stewed mutton was served in a large teapot and served with a large pancake.

"I'm back, sit down and eat together!" Yu Huai asked Xiao Kui to sit down and eat together.

Xiao Kui was not polite, so he walked over and sat on the stool, grabbed a piece of mutton with bones and took it to his mouth and started gnawing.

"The captured Shenwu Guard prisoners need your Second Battle Barracks to be taken care of. For the time being, your Second Battle Barracks cannot enter the city and can only stay outside the city." Yu Huai said to Xiao Kui who was eating.

Xiao Kui nodded.

Thousands of prisoners of Shenwu Guards must not be released, so they can only be taken into custody and wait for a special person to take over.

Everyone has a regular dose of mutton, but the pancakes and vermicelli potatoes are enough.

Xiao Kui ate two pancakes and a large teacup in one breath. Finally, he burped his body, so he stopped eating and poured himself a cup of hot water to slip through the cracks.

"Where did the mutton come from? I remember there was no such fresh mutton in the army." Xiao Kui, who had enough food and drink, picked the shredded meat between the teeth with his hands.

Faced with the tiger-shaped flag soldiers with armor and weapons, the turmoil on the street was quickly suppressed, and some streets were filled with a pungent smell of blood.

After the Second Battle Barracks captured Shouyang City, Yu Huai led the team of thousands of people left by the Third Battle Barracks to the county government in Shouyang City.

"Where is the county magistrate? Have you run away?" Yu Huai did not see the county magistrate of Shouyang in the yamen, so he asked Xiang Xiang the squadron leader who first captured Xiayamen.

The other party came to Yu Huai and said, "I have sent someone to ask, saying that the county magistrate went to the city wall early in the morning and has not come back yet. However, I have sent someone to look for it on the city wall."

"I didn't expect to be a loyal minister." Yu Huai said, "I took good care of the county magistrate's family and arrested the county magistrate to deal with it together."

"Yes." The squadron leader nodded and responded.

At this time, a soldier ran in from outside.

"Report to the deputy commander, some people from the city came outside the yamen. I want to ask you to see the deputy commander?"

"See me?" Yu Huai frowned.

For the people in the city, the soldiers and horses with the tiger-shaped flag are bandits that everyone calls. When they capture the city, the people have long been hiding, and they have never encountered any people coming to see each other in groups.

"Maybe the name of our tiger flag was passed to Shouyang and we knew we were the righteous masters." The squadron leader standing in front of him said on the side.

Yu Huai thought for a while and said, "Then let's meet!"
